Under the city wall of Chen County.
"Liu Ji!"
Cao Cao looked at Liu Ji on the city wall, flung his wide sleeves, and stood up from the chariot. He said calmly,"
"I didn't expect you to be so young. It's really beyond my expectations! I'll give you another chance to join me.”
Liu Ji smiled faintly. It's better to rely on me! I can consider giving you a military advisor position. Otherwise, you're already so old. I'm afraid that if I beat you until you're paralyzed, you'll be sad for the rest of your life.”
"You!" Cao Cao was so angry that he laughed. I didn't expect you to be so stubborn when my army is at the city gates. I didn't expect you to snatch my strategist Guo Jia away. As long as you return Guo Jia to me, I will leave your corpse intact.”
Hearing Cao Cao's words, Guo Jia was confused. What did he mean by 'Cao Cao'…
Liu Ji said," Cao thief, you've never owned Guo Jia, yet you're saying that he's yours. You're really thick-skinned!" Speaking of robbing, isn't that your profession? You probably can't even count how many wives you've snatched!”
Hearing Liu Ji's words, Liu Ji's subordinates burst into laughter.
Cao Cao's smiling face darkened,""Very good, very good. I couldn't tell that you were quite sharp-tongued!”
"There are still many things that you can't see. For example, you will definitely lose today!" Liu Ji laughed.”
"Haha!"
Cao Cao was so angry that he laughed." Liu Ji, you're too arrogant. Do you think that Yuan Shu's subordinates can fight me?" You're too childish!"
"No, don't misunderstand. I'm not going to fight you.”
Everyone was stunned. Liu Ji said indifferently,"I'm going to crush you like I'm crushing an ant!”
Boom!
His words were like thunder, causing everyone to look at the youth on the city wall in disbelief.
How arrogant!
How arrogant!
The smile on Cao Cao's face froze, and the mockery in his eyes instantly disappeared. His pupils were instantly filled with a cold storm.
Their gazes met in the air above the Chen Nation's city wall.
No one dared to make a sound. They, the bystanders, also couldn't interrupt.
After an unknown amount of time, Cao Cao finally opened his mouth and said,""Since you're so arrogant and condescending, there's no point in saying anything more. Let's see the truth with our hands!”
"Attack the city!"
Following Cao Cao's order, Xiahou Dun, Cao Ren, and the other generals raised their weapons and shouted,"
"Kill them!"
"Kill them!"
"Kill them!"
"Throwing stones!"
Following Xiahou Dun's order, the catapult placed large rocks on it.
"Release!"
With a command, boom! Boom! Boom!
The big rock drew a long tongue and threw it at the city wall of Chen County.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The rocks smashed into the city wall, causing a loud explosion.
However, Liu Ji waved his hand behind him, and the soldiers retreated in unison. They did not suffer too much damage from the rocks. Even if rocks occasionally flew up, they would be swatted away by Liu Ji's spear.
Seeing this, Xiahou Dun pulled out a podao and raised it high."
"Brothers, attack the city!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a few huge siege chariots, pushed by hundreds of soldiers, began to slowly roll towards the city wall of Chen County.
On both sides, dozens of soldiers formed a small team, carrying scaling ladders and advancing at high speed…
"Whoa! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoa!"
Over a hundred thousand soldiers let out an earth-shattering cry. Flags fluttered in the wind, and halberds soared into the sky like dark clouds, pressing down on the city walls of Chen County…
……
Cao Cao narrowed his eyes as he watched everything unfold, his face calm and composed.
He had seen this kind of scene too many times.
Meanwhile, Cheng Yu, who was accompanying them, felt uneasy. Xun Yu and the others did not say anything and just watched quietly.
Cao Cao glanced at the three strategists and asked,"
"How do you think I should deal with Liu Ji after I capture him?”
Cao Cao had completely accepted the fact that Liu Ji had taken down Yuan Shu and knew that Liu Ji was a capable general.
Therefore, with this understanding, he, who had great foresight, had already begun to think about the future.
Xun Yu frowned and said nothing.
Zhou Yu immediately stepped forward." Cao Gong, a traitor like Liu Ji should be killed!"”
Hearing Zhou Yu's words, Cao Cao waved his hand and looked at the other strategists.
Cheng Yu, on the other hand, pondered for a moment." I do have an idea. What does my lord think?" he asked.”
"Speak."
Cao Cao looked at the army that was getting closer and closer to the city wall of Chen County and said concisely.
"I feel that not only should the lord not punish Liu Ji, he should reward him heavily!"”
"Why?" Cao Cao frowned.”
Cheng Yu continued," Although Liu Ji offended his superiors, the lord still rewarded him. This shows that the lord is fair in rewarding and punishing. This shows the lord's broad-mindedness. This will boost the lord's reputation in the four seas. It will be very beneficial to recruiting heroes from all over the world!”
"Moreover, Liu Ji was able to defeat Yuan Shu and cripple Guan Yu with a single shot. This shows that he is a person with methods and strategies. If such a person can be used by the lord, wouldn't that be wonderful?”
"Killing two birds with one stone, why wouldn't my lord do it?!”
Cao Cao nodded and revealed a satisfied smile,""Zhong De's words are deeply in my heart, haha…"
Zhou Yu, on the other hand, was unhappy." Even if Liu Ji was captured, Cao Cao would not kill him. How could he take revenge?
No! At that time, he would definitely use some schemes to make Liu Ji die without a burial place…
And among the army that was surging towards Chen County City.
Liu Bei and Zhang Fei's 5,000 men were like a drop in the ocean in Cao Cao's army and did not attract much attention.
"Big brother, after the city falls, we don't need to worry about anything else and go straight to that kid Liu Ji.”
Zhang Fei said to Liu Bei as he rode along with the troops.
Liu Bei nodded his head heavily." Yes, we must capture Liu Ji before Cao Cao and bring him to Commander Yun for him to deal with. Otherwise, Commander Yun will never be able to get over that hurdle in his heart!"”
"We can't let that kid Liu Ji escape!”
Zhang Fei looked at the calm figure standing on the city wall of Chen County, and his eyes flashed with ruthlessness…
……
"Kill!"
"Charge! Charge! Charge!"
Their shouts soared into the sky, and dust flew into the air!
The army moved faster and faster, and the sounds of the siege vehicles getting louder and louder…
On the city wall of Chen County, Zhang Xun, Chen Lan, and Li Feng were breathing heavily, and their faces were slightly flushed. It was unknown whether they were nervous or excited.
The soldiers gripped their crossbows tightly, their palms sweating.
They were all waiting for an order.
Waiting for Liu Ji's order!
At this moment, Cao Cao's army had already reached the city walls.
"Set up the ladder!"
Rows of ten-meter-tall scaling ladders were erected on the city walls of Chen County. The Cao army surged forward like a tide…
"Boom!"
The battering ram's huge head slammed into the city gate, making a dull thud...
Cao Cao was calmly watching all of this!
Xun Yu frowned, thinking about something…
Meanwhile, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei were watching Liu Ji closely, tightening their grip on their weapons!
"Release!"
Liu Ji slowly opened his mouth and shouted.
As Liu Ji's voice fell, the sound of arrows could be heard.
Arrows rained down from the city walls…
It was as if a rain of arrows had suddenly descended from the city walls of Chen County.
"Pfft! Puchi! Puchi!"
The muffled sound of arrows piercing into flesh echoed on the city wall of Chen County…
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
Miserable screams rang out, and the Cao Cao army that wanted to climb up the city walls fell down like dumplings.
Instantly!
After the rain of arrows, the city wall of Chen County was covered in blood rain.
Corpses were strewn all over the ground, and blood qi soared into the sky!
Almost all of them were the corpses of Cao Cao's army. Liu Ji's army had barely suffered any damage.
"Charge!"
" Those who turn back will be killed without mercy!!!"
As they shouted, Cao Cao's army was like ants, advancing wave after wave, one after another, following the ladder, wanting to climb up the city walls.
However, the arrows that fell from the top of the city wall were like a continuous rainstorm.
It was constantly washing over them!
Corpses were like wheat being harvested, falling in pieces and piling up on the city walls of Chen County…
In the distance.
Cao Cao's calm expression gradually froze as he watched all of this.
Xun Yu, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly exclaimed,"
"Could it be…"
"Could this be the killing weapon that Liu Ji developed? It's really powerful…"
Zhou Yu didn't dare to say anything. He naturally knew the power of the weapon.
At this moment, he glared at Liu Ji who was on the city wall…
