Everyone was shocked. Cao Cao was also shocked.
Cao Cao's eyes revealed a hint of shock, followed by a strong heartache!
My son suffered such serious injuries because of me!
Cao Zhi saw that everyone looked as if they had seen a ghost. He turned his head to look at his left shoulder. If he didn't look, he wouldn't have known. He was shocked when he saw it. Just by turning his head, he was shocked to see a shocking knife wound. It was obvious that this wound was made by a large knife. The wound was neat, but the flesh had been completely cut off.
In the end, he even cut a deep hole in the bone. At the corner of the hole, countless cracks extended.
If Guan Yu had used a little more strength, Cao Zhi's arm would have been completely chopped off!
Everyone looked at Cao Zhi as if they had seen a ghost.
Even after suffering such a terrifying fatal injury, he was still able to remain calm and composed. He even had the mood to dissuade Xu Huang and Li Dian from pursuing him.
Young Master Zhi's will is truly tenacious!
Young Master Zhi was truly the strongest man in the world!
Young Master Zhi's will was extraordinary, he could really be said to be the number one god of today!
Cao Zhi did not know that his image in their hearts had instantly risen to a new height.
In fact, Cao Zhi was also puzzled. To be honest, it was not because of his strong will, but because he did not feel any pain at all!
Otherwise, he was not a person with a screw loose. He would not have been so seriously injured that he still had to blabber to others.
Although Cao Zhi himself could not figure out the reason, he could vaguely guess that this should be another of his golden fingers.
It should be a function similar to pain nerve necrosis, which would allow him to not feel too intense pain when fighting or receiving fatal injuries.
well
Just as Cao Zhi's emotions were rising and falling, he saw Cao Cao's heartbroken and concerned gaze.
"Zijian! Father has made you suffer!" Cao Cao was very moved, and one could clearly hear a trace of sobs in his voice!
Feeling Cao Cao's true feelings, Cao Zhi almost jumped up.
Why? The world, no, it should be said that the most ambitious person in history would also cry bitterly over someone else's injury?
Cao Zhi was flattered.
However, Cao Zhi quickly reacted. After replying to some words, he told Cao Cao that his injuries would not cripple him and that it was more important to hurry. He continued to let Cao Cao mount his horse and set off to escort Cao Cao back to Ye City.
......
The rest of the journey was much smoother. Under the protection of Cao Zhi's three thousand elite cavalry, there was no need to hide and choose empty paths to advance. Instead, they directly walked on the wide official road.
Along the way, they did not encounter any other enemies, but they did encounter many of Cao Cao's defeated troops who had fled here after their defeat at the Battle of Red Cliff.
They accepted them and continued on their journey. After they arrived at Xinye City, the three-thousand-strong army had become an army of ten-thousand-strong.
After arriving at Xinye City, everyone felt relieved.
When they arrived at Xinye, they were at the border of Jingzhou. They were very close to the center of Cao Cao's power. It could be said that they had already escaped the crisis and arrived at an absolutely safe area.
The defeated soldiers were eager to rest. They were exhausted from running for so long.
Not only them, but even Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, and the others could not hide the exhaustion on their faces.
Cao Cao directly went to sleep in the main tent.
Cao Zhi also began to look for a doctor to treat his arm. No matter how powerful he was, he still did not have the ability to heal quickly. If he was injured, he still had to ask a doctor for treatment.
Just like that, the Cao Army had escaped the deadly crisis of the Battle of Red Cliff, and the battle had come to an end.
.......
Two days later.
After two days of rest, Cao Cao had already recovered a lot of his vitality, and the fatigue of his soldiers had disappeared. However, although the fatigue had disappeared, the negative emotions brought about by the defeat of the war were still visible to the naked eye in Cao Cao's camp. Wherever they walked, they could hear sighs and sighs, and many people would cry at night.
Cao Zhi, who was among them, also felt something.
A general's success would cause ten thousand bones to wither, but at the same time, a general's failure would also cause ten thousand bones to wither!
The 800,000 strong army during the expedition was so cool! In the end, there were only about ten thousand soldiers left. Adding on the defeated soldiers who had fled from Red Cliff in the past few days, there were only thirty thousand people left.
Even if there were still people who did not make it to Xinye in time, there would definitely be less than 100,000 of the original 800,000 soldiers left!
How miserable!
After resting for two days, Cao Cao's mood had calmed down quite a bit. He began to reflect on the painful experience. From the extreme regret and sadness at the beginning, he began to feel a little depressed.
Although she was still feeling sad, her symptoms had lessened a lot.
In the end, one morning, Cao Cao ordered all the generals above the rank of lieutenant to hold a meeting in the tent.
Cao Cao thought of Cao Zhi's arm. He had originally been specially lenient, and Cao Zhi could not go. However, after two days of adjustment, Cao Zhi's arm had actually recovered by 30%. At least he could move around, so he still went to discuss the matter.
After all, Cao Zhi actually had some things he wanted to say in such an official setting. In this way, the plan in his heart could be carried out, and his dream of hegemony could be implemented.
Moreover, Cao Zhi had already guessed what Cao Cao would say. These words had also exposed Cao Cao's stubbornness and overconfidence in his own judgment. If he didn't use the Battle of Red Cliff as a major event to make the proud Boss Cao realize his own shortcomings, it would be detrimental to the development of Cao Wei in the long run!
After all, although Cao Zhi was very capable, Cao Cao was still the leader of Cao Wei! If Cao Cao still retained this easy to target character, he would be endlessly schemed against in the future when he faced a psychopath like Kong Ming.
Most importantly, Cao Cao would think that he was right! He would not humbly accept other people's opinions and continue to insist on his wrong views. No one could persuade him.
To put it bluntly, it was a kind of wishful thinking. It was a little stubborn and paranoid. At the same time, it was also because of his suspicious personality that he could not trust others 100%.
If Cao Cao didn't realize this personality, he would find many reasons for his mistakes in the future to prove that his decisions were right. This way, if Cao Zhi wanted to do something beyond the understanding of this world in the future, if Cao Cao stubbornly disagreed, it would have a lot of adverse effects on Cao Zhi.
That was why Cao Zhi had to come to this promotion to have a good talk.
After all, this was related to his future.
