Chapter 113 Evil Beast

The Cao army arrived outside Mocheng at about noon. The Cao army, who had been repairing all night, did not camp first and then attack the city as usual, but instead set up a formation directly, leaving a school of troops to camp in the rear. The other soldiers launched a crazy attack on Mocheng under the command of Cao Ren, Xiahou Yuan and Le Jin.

Zhao Yun left two hundred people and three hundred civilians to guard the camp, and personally led 800 people to attack Cao's army. He did not directly attack the main force of the Cao army. At this moment, when the morale of the Cao army was in full swing, eight hundred people rushed in was tantamount to hitting stones with eggs. Zhao Yun had a very sharp insight on the battlefield. When he found that his main force could not be shaken, he led his troops around the enemy's main force and launched an attack on the Cao army, which had sorted out supplies in the rear and established a camp.

There was the location of Cao's army's baggage. Mocheng had sufficient garrisons and the city defense was quite strong, so it was difficult to capture it in a hurry. If the baggage was destroyed at this time, the battle might have ended at the beginning. The loss could not be afforded. After Cao Ren, Le Jin and Xiahou Yuan discovered the intention of Zhao Yun's troops, they knew it was inappropriate, so they immediately ordered Xiahou Yuan to lead a troops to rescue him, but the offensive against Mocheng slowed down.

Seeing that Cao's army was divided into troops to rescue him, Zhao Yun did not entangle with Cao's army, and immediately led his army to retreat and retreat to the unbuilt camp. Xiahou Yuan saw that Zhao Yun retreated, but he did not dare to pursue him, worried that there would be other ambush troops in Mocheng.

But above Mocheng, Liu Yi was completely disappointed with Zhou Ben.

It’s not that Zhou Ben is so bad. In fact, there are only a few tricks to defend the city, such as long-range shooting of bows and arrows, rolling stones and wood, and the fixed guard equipment that Liu Yi focused on building everywhere, such as the stone generator. Although the range is not long, it has seven tile spoons, which can project seven stone bullets at a time, with a range of between twenty and thirty steps. There are as many as eight city walls. If this is used well, it will be useless to hold a shield.

Therefore, although the walls of Mocheng are not high, it is quite convenient to defend the city. What Liu Yi and the soldiers of Mocheng are unacceptable is that during the short period of time, Zhou Ben almost used the troops of Mocheng to defend the city, but the soldiers of Jiangxia brought him did not even move.

"Boyuan, if this continues, my Mocheng will be taken away by this person sooner or later." Wei Yue braved the rain of arrows and came to Liu Yi and said gritting his teeth, saying that he would treat them as fools.

"First deal with the situation, and then retreat to the Cao army. The Cao army has divided its troops and its offensive slows down. If you go to supervise Jiangxia's troops, we can't move Zhou Ben, but if his soldiers do not respect the military orders, they can do things at a cheap price." Liu Yi's face was not good-looking. Liu Qi could send someone to help, so he was naturally grateful. This was also a reason why he didn't want to move Zhou Ben, but Zhou Ben's actions had already angered Liu Yi.

"Here!" Wei Yue understood and said goodbye to Liu Yi, turned around and left, heading to the opposite direction of Zhou Ben, urging Jiang Xia's troops.

Liu Yi was not optimistic when he saw Wei Yue leaving. This method would treat the symptoms but not the root cause. Zhou Ben was unwilling to cooperate. He either thought about seizing power or cheating himself. In the morning, if he hadn't blessed himself with attributes and suppressed Zhou Ben, Liu Yi did not doubt that Zhao Yun was not present, if Zhou Ben had the opportunity, he would definitely take the opportunity to cut him down.

If you have a thief for thousands of days, how can you defend against a thief for thousands of days? What's more, in this kind of war, if you can't handle the rat shit like Zhou Ben, you can force Mo Cheng into a dead end.

At this moment, Liu Yi also had the intention to kill Zhou Ben, but even if he wanted to kill, Zhou Ben could not die at his own hands, or even at the hands of the soldiers in Mocheng. That would be like a breakup with Liu Qi.

In the current situation, in Jiangxia, Liu Qi is the most powerful. Even if Liu Bei is only temporarily living in Xiakou, relying on Liu Qi's protection, if Zhou Ben really dies at the hands of himself or the soldiers of Mocheng, then Mocheng will be really isolated.

Because of Zhao Yun, the Cao army had to send troops to protect the military camps and supplies and food that were being built. Only half of the troops were put into the battlefield. In addition, Wei Yue killed several Jiangxia generals who did not obey the orders and ordered Jiangxia soldiers to help defend the city. Only then did he stabilize the situation in Mocheng and suppress the Cao army who was siegeing the city with the attributes of the city walls.

Liu Yi no longer participated in the command of the battle, but sat on an enemy building, found a piece of wood, looked at the battlefield silently, and took out a carving knife, where he started carving slowly.

He saw Zhou Ben argue with Wei Yue with anger on his face, and even almost started to move his hands, but he did not stop it. The carving knife kept flying in his hand, and a thumb-sized carving gradually took shape in his hand.

Zhu Yu engraving with excellent workmanship: lifelike + 22, misfortune + 24, confusing people's mind + 21

Zhuqi comes from the Mountains and Seas. The East Mountains are three hundred miles south and are called Gengshan. The plants and trees are mostly green in water and many big snakes. Their clothes are like foxes and fish wings. Their name is Zhuqi. Their sounds are self-evident. If you see them, your country will be afraid.

In the Shanhai Jing, Zhu Qi is a strange beast that brings disasters. Liu Yi was deeply impressed when he was reading Shanhai Jing. Today, he saw that he had no choice but to do it directly, so he suddenly wanted to use the unique attributes of his craftsmanship system to Zhou Ben. After all, from past experience, although most of the attributes made by himself are good, they will also have some more pitiful attributes, and the attributes are related to the effect of the carrier itself. For example, most of the attributes appearing in the house are comfortable or restored physical strength and energy, and the attributes of wood carvings are directly related to their samples. The dragon carvings made by Liu Yi when he first came had attributes such as shock. At that time, the attributes were not very strong, but they gave people a good feeling.

Therefore, Liu Yi had no choice but to deal with Zhou Ben, so he had a sudden inspiration and thought of giving Zhou Ben something that could bring disaster. Among the ferocious beasts he knew, the only one Zhu Ben, although it brought bad luck, was close to the fox.

Things like foxes did not represent disaster to the country and the people from the beginning. In ancient times, they were like divine beasts such as dragons and phoenixes, and were regarded as auspicious beasts, and were very confusing, so Liu Yi chose Zhu Qi.

Looking at the lifelike wooden carvings of the thumb in his palm, Liu Yi suddenly felt dazed, and then shook his head. He did not look at it, and made another box, put it in the box, and then stood up.

After a long battle between Cao's army, Zhao Yun led his army to wait for an opportunity to attack, which made the Cao army unable to attack the city with all their strength. Seeing that the Mocheng was gradually setting, not only failed to capture it, but Cao's army suffered a lot. Cao Ren had no choice but to order the Jin to withdraw his troops.

Seeing Cao's army retreating like a tide, Zhou Ben was filled with anger and took his personal guard to catch Wei Yue and came to Liu Yi to argue. Wei Yue was naturally not afraid. He slapped Zhou Ben's hand away and took them straight to the yamen.
