Chapter 34 Reunion(1/2)
The coalition forces slowly retreated.
Ding Chen had no expression on his face and watched Xiahou Dun leave before he led his troops back to the camp.
In the camp, there was noisy and noisy.
Jia Xu was commanding the prisoners to clean the battlefield, and there were guards who were trapped in the battle, each with bright smiles on his face.
It is obvious that the two hundred coalition forces failed to successfully attack, but instead fell into Jia Xu's ambush.
This was not beyond Ding Chen's expectations.
If Jia Xu could not even deal with such a scene, how could he be worthy of Ding Chen's attention?
However, he did not feel the joy of victory. After returning to the camp, he returned to the tent alone.
"What's wrong with Ziyang?"
Jia Xu was a little surprised and grabbed Hu Cheer and asked.
Hu Cheer said with a confused look on his face: "I don't know either, I only know that the lord seemed to have met a familiar person on the battlefield."
A familiar person?
Jia Xu's eyes flashed, and he suddenly showed a look of pride.
He immediately found Gao Shun and Yang Aruo, pulled them to the side and whispered orders, and they hurriedly left.
Sighing, Jia Xu shook his head and turned around and walked towards the tent.
Ding Chen's small tent is located behind the Central Army's large tent, which is quite quiet.
Of course, this tranquility is also compared to comparison. How can there be a truly tranquil place in the military camp?
"Ziyang, I am Lao Jia."
Jia Xu said in a deep voice outside the tent.
There was a silence in the small tent.
It took a long time to hear Ding Chen say, "Come in."
Jia Xu stepped forward, lifted the curtain, and walked in.
A large wax was lit in the small tent, but the flames were not very strong after being trimmed, so that the light was a little dim.
Ding Chen sat on the bed with a knife around him.
However, when Jia Xu saw his appearance clearly, he was shocked.
In Jia Xu's impression, Ding Chen was a very lively and cheerful young man, and his whole body was full of vitality.
But now...
Ding Chen looked like he had become older and more than teenagers.
In a short period of time, his whole body was filled with a sense of dusk air, which was shocking.
"Ziyang, what are you doing?"
Ding Chen raised his head and looked at Jia Xu and said, "You guessed it, why bother ask me?"
"Did you really meet?"
"I didn't see him, but I can be sure.
If he didn't come, Yuan Rang would never appear. I know that Xiahou Dun. He is noble and rebellious. No one will instruct him except him... Lao Jia, I think I am really ridiculous. I had thought before that, taking this opportunity to send Ajie and Ang back to reunite with him. It's because of his concern for him, but he doesn't care about them at all.
Whatever people talk about and what kind of righteousness is just for his own future.”
Jia Xu sat down aside. After hearing Ding Chen's complaints, he couldn't help but laugh.
"I won't do it if I pull a hair and benefit the world.
Is this what Ziyang thought?”
"Not that, I just feel that Ah Meng is so ruthless."
Jia Xu said, "Do you know why he is ruthless?"
"Why?"
"Because, you're not strong enough."
"I?"
Ding Chen raised his head and looked at Jia Xu in surprise, looking confused.
Jia Xu said: "Ruo Ziyang is strong enough, Ruo Ziyang, you hold 100,000... No, you only need to hold 10,000 strong soldiers in your hand. Do you think Cao Cao dares to act so unscrupulously? Because you are lazy and you don't care about anything, he won't care about you either.
And your sister is even more hindered!
Ziyang, if you have a thousand powerful soldiers under your tent, I am afraid that Cao Cao will have to worry about it when he is acting.”
After hearing this, Ding Chen was silent.
What Jia Xu said seemed to make sense. If he had really strong enough, Cao Cao would not have ignored his sister's safety and acted casually.
"What should I do?"
"what to do?"
Jia Xu smiled and said softly: "It's very simple. Defeat Cao Cao, behead Qingshou, and make great achievements.
In this case, why not be afraid that Cao Cao would dare to underestimate you?"
Ding Chen couldn't help but nodded, as if he was energetic.
"Ziyang, since Cao Cao appeared, he obviously wanted to seize Hucheng Pavilion.
And we lack troops, and if we want to defeat him, we need to prepare sufficiently. If you are disheartened at this time, you might as well take everyone to evacuate Hucheng Pavilion overnight and go to Xingyang... I will return to Luoyang and continue to be my chief clerk."
In theory, Ding Chen should retreat.
Cao Cao came this time and was obviously determined to win, otherwise Xiahou Dun would not have been allowed to lead the troops to support him.
Moreover, he also knew that since Xiahou Dun had appeared, then Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Cao Hong and other Cao clans and relatives would also appear. Judging from the number of their vanguard troops, Cao Cao brought at least 5,000 troops.
And Ding Chen had only more than a thousand civilians.
There are only eight hundred soldiers, and the generals are only Gao Shun and Hu Cheer. It is not easy to resist Cao Cao.
But Ding Chen also knew that with his understanding of Jia Xu, as long as he dared to say something about retreating, Jia Xu would definitely leave.
Moreover, it will no longer have any connection with Ding Chen from now on.
If this is the case, then Ding Chen will only have one choice left...
He looked at Jia Xu and suddenly burst into laughter after a long time.
"Old Jia, will you come out?"
Jia Xu also smiled and said softly: "I have some ideas, but I still need Ziyang, you can help me."
"How to help you?"
"Can Ziyang know that if you know yourself and your enemy, you will never be defeated in a hundred battles?"
Ding Chen's eyes condensed, and he immediately understood Jia Xu's thoughts.
He couldn't help laughing and stood up and said, "If you want to talk about Ah Meng, I know a lot, so I will talk to you carefully."
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Just as Ding Chen and Jia Xu were discussing how to plot against Cao Cao, Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin were kneeling in the tent in the camp.
There are many people in the big tent.
Cao Cao sat upright in the center, and there were several people sitting on both sides.
Behind him, a strong man stood.
He is about eight feet and seven inches tall, burly and strong, with a waist of ten, and a tiger's back and a bear's waist.
The big man stood with his hands in his arms, his eyes slightly closed.
His hair was loose, and he stood there like a wild beast, giving people a feeling of extreme danger.
His appearance is a bit scary, with yellow eyes.
When he stares at you, he will feel like he is being targeted by a tiger.
On both sides of the tent were Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Xiahou Yuan, Wei Zi and Xi Zhicai respectively.
Cao Cao helped the case with one hand, looked at Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin without saying a word.
The air seemed to solidify, making people feel breathless.
Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin were even more silent, kneeling there and dared not move...
It was Xiahou Yuan who broke the tranquility and said in a deep voice: "Yuan Rang, in this way, hasn't Ziyang really fought with you?"
"Never!"
Xiahou Dun was secretly grateful in his heart. He glanced at Xiahou Yuan and said to Cao Cao: "But the last general can be sure that if the confrontation was at that time, there would be no chance of winning. Although Wenze and I had the advantage in the number of soldiers and horses, Ziyang... didn't know how he could train such a powerful soldier, and he could seize his will by just relying on his momentum. Moreover, although he had not many soldiers and horses, he was obviously well-trained and was a kind of war-torn warrior who had been through many battles. Although I had many soldiers, most of them were recruited in a hurry, and I was afraid that it would be difficult to gain the upper hand."
