Cai Mao shivered, his arrogance suppressed in an instant.
Dong Cheng and more than a dozen other Han officials were wiped out, the emperor was beaten up, and the empress was robbed.
The one who had done such a brutal act was the youth in front of him.
How could such a lawless and violent maniac put a mere Jing State clan in his eyes?
Cai Mao cowered and lowered his head.
"Sikong Cao, my Liu Jingzhou has always respected the Imperial Court and has no enmity towards Sikong Cao.”
"The conflict between our two families was caused by Zhang Xiu. Now that Zhang Xiu is dead, we should bury the hatchet and mind our own business.”
"If Sikong Cao is magnanimous enough to let me go back to Xiangyang, I will definitely persuade my master to form a good relationship with Sikong Cao.”
"What do you think, Sikong?"
Not only did Cai Mao cower, he even lowered his voice and made a deal to sue for peace.
"Who do you think you are to ask for peace with me, Cao Shuo?”
"I want to take down Xinye and bring my troops to the Han River. I want to kill Liu Biao until he is terrified and make him beg for peace!”
Cao Shuo let out a bold and arrogant statement as he waved his hand."Drag this thief down and send his head to Xiangyang to give Liu Biao a bloody warning!”
Boom!
It was as if a bolt of lightning had struck the top of his head, and he instantly felt dizzy.
Cai Mao never expected Cao Shuo to treat him like dirt.
Not only did he want to kill them, but he also wanted to kill them with the torture of being torn apart!
" I'm your father's old friend and Liu Jingzhou's brother-in-law. If you kill me, Liu Jingzhou will definitely be irreconcilable with you..."
Cai Mao screamed hoarsely like he had gone mad.
"So much nonsense!"
Cao Shuo kicked Cai Mao in the face.
Cai Mao screamed and spat out blood. He flew backward and landed heavily on the ground.
He lost a few of his front teeth, and his face was kicked into a pulp. He could no longer curse.
The white-robed soldiers around him dragged Cai Mao out like a dead dog.
While the generals were secretly rejoicing, they were all shocked by Cao Shuo's ruthlessness.
"This nephew of mine is far more ruthless than Meng De…"
Cao Ren gasped in shock.
North of Bowang Slope.
Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, and the other strategists were following the supplies down south.
A fast horse galloped over.
"Reporting to Chancellor Guo, Administrator Cheng."
"Cai Mao has abandoned his armor and fled to Bowang Slope. Sikong Zheng is leading his army in hot pursuit.”
Cheng Yu's face flashed with suspicion as he said,""Cai Mao is also considered a famous general of the Jing state, yet he is so fearful of Sikong?”
Guo Jia was also suspicious and ordered for the map.
"Bowang Slope, Bowang Slope…"
Guo Jia stared at the map, the doubt in his eyes deepening.
"Not good, the enemy is playing tricks!"
Guo Jia frowned and pointed at the map.
"Zhong De, look. The Bowang Slope is a slope on both sides and there is only a narrow road in the middle. The trees are lush and it is the best place to set up an ambush.”
"I think that Cai Mao must have faked his retreat to lure Sikong into chasing him so that he could set up an ambush at Bowang Slope and heavily injure our army!”
"If Cai Mao attacks with fire again, wouldn't Sikong He's 20,000-strong army be in danger of being wiped out?" Cheng Yu suddenly realized.”
The two of them were so shocked that they broke out in a cold sweat. Without thinking much, they quickly rode their horses and wanted to go forward to remind him.
When the setting sun was setting in the west, the two of them arrived at Bowang Slope.
The 20,000 Cao soldiers had disappeared without a trace. In the forest ahead, thick smoke was still billowing.
"Damn it, we're still a step too late!”
Guo Jia fell to the ground and groaned.
Cheng Yu said bitterly," Sikong's martial arts skills are peerless. Unfortunately, he lacks strategy. If we knew this would happen, we would have tried our best to persuade him. We couldn't let him-"
As soon as he finished speaking.
A group of men and horses rushed over from the front, and the leader was Yu Jin.
"Chancellor Guo, Administrator Cheng, you came at the right time.”
"Sikong asked me to bring you to the camp in the future to discuss the strategy of entering the new wilderness and approaching the Han River.”
Yu Jin came forward with a smile.
Guo Jia and Cheng Yu looked at each other, and the self-blame on their faces turned into surprise.
"Sikong didn't…didn't fall into Cai Mao's trap?”
Guo Jia's voice trembled.
"This Sikong of ours is not inferior to the late Duke in terms of intelligence and strategy, so how could he have fallen for Cai Mao's petty tricks?”
Yu Jin said respectfully.
He told him how Cao Shuo saw through Jia Xu's vicious plan, sent Cai Zhong to test him and send him to his death, and then the army killed him and severely injured the Jing state soldiers.
"Sikong has already killed Jia Xu and destroyed Cai Mao, preparing to continue south to take Xinye.”
"The two of you should hurry up and follow me to the camp to offer a plan to Sikong.”
Guo Jia and Cheng Yu's bodies froze, and their expressions kept changing. Deep shock surged in their eyes, and they could not calm down for a long time.
He was absent-minded for a long time.
"Jia Xu, that poison warrior, was actually seen through by Sikong?”
Cheng Yu came to his senses and looked at Guo Jia in surprise and suspicion.
Guo Jia took a deep breath and calmed the waves in his heart. He sighed,
"Zhongde, it seems that you and I are worrying too much.”
"Not only is our young lord peerless in martial arts, but his intelligence and military strategy are also like that of Meng De.”
"In my opinion, the person we are following is a rare hero!”
Guo Jia sighed meaningfully.
"A rarely seen hero…"
Cheng Yu muttered to himself. His body and mind shook as he fell into deep thought.
The two of them rode their horses and headed to the camp to report.
Guo Jia ordered the secret division to send the news of the victory at Bowang Slope to Wancheng to Cao Cao.
