Wu Fan turned his head back and looked at Zhuge Liang with a hint of complacent expression on his lips.

The two of them stared at each other for a long time, and Wu Fan suddenly said:

"C you**."

The Cao army soldiers around him didn't hear anything Wu Fan said. But Zhuge Liang heard it very clearly and was shocked and furious immediately.

The world's number one soldier, the first general, the first rank of the cavalry general, the governor of the second army of Cao's army... Under such brilliant and dazzling titles, ordinary people can't say that they are out of reach, even if they are lucky enough to see it, they feel that it is a lifelong honor.

Such a person who combines many dazzling auras can actually make such swear words?

Zhuge Liang was so frightened that he was extremely angry

I wish I could jump up and scold Wu Fan's ancestors for the 18th generation. The "swearing" here refers to the literati's scolding. For details, please refer to the manifesto against thieves written by Chen Lin in history. It is completely different from Wu Fan's straightforward swearing. However, it is impossible to attack, just because Cao Cao and his group are only a few dozen meters away from here.

At present, in this society, people's words and deeds are very important. When many princes select talents, they even look at whether the person's behavior is appropriate and their talents are second. Although Cao Cao puts talent first, he, who was born in a society, also attaches great importance to the behavior and deeds of talents.

Zhuge Liang knew this truth very well and knew that he must try his best to maintain a good image at this time to avoid making Cao Cao disgusted. In that case, not to mention persuading himself to surrender, it is very likely that he would even directly order someone to chop off his head.

As a result, although Zhuge Liang was extremely angry, he could only endure it. He stared at Wu Fan and said, "You...", and then he choked back.

Wu Fan looked at Zhuge Liang's reaction - in fact, he had known that Zhuge Liang would definitely not dare to have an attack, so he deliberately let Zhuge Liang take a secret - a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and a snorted again from his nose, and then Wu Fan turned around and bowed to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao happened to come to Wu Fan at this time, and hurriedly held Wu Fan's arching hands and looked up and down. Although he didn't see where Wu Fan was injured, he still asked with concern:

"Brother Eighth, I heard that you have just escaped from danger and are worried about me. I wonder if I have ever been injured?"

Wu Fan said:

"I have no injuries on my body thanks to my brother's concern."

Cao Cao nodded with relief, patted Wu Fan on the shoulder and smiled:

"It's so good, so good. I think my eighth brother, Cao Cao, is the best martial arts in the world, how could he be injured by that mere formation? It seems that I am worried about it. Hahahaha..."

Cao Cao didn't know how powerful the formation was, and he only laughed happily after learning that Wu Fan had nothing to do. Wu Fan could only shake his head and smile bitterly.

Seeing that Cao Cao and Wu Fan were so close, Zhuge Liang frowned for a moment, and he felt a little bad in his heart. However, this feeling soon disappeared because Cao Cao had already looked at him.

Since Wu Fan was fine, Cao Cao naturally remembered Zhuge Liang, a talented man who had become a prisoner. When he looked behind Wu Fan, he saw Zhuge Liang being pressed tightly by the soldiers, and the clothes on the back of his neck were taken off, and he was obviously about to be executed.

Cao Cao quickly stepped forward and waved his hand to let the soldiers pressing Zhuge Liang dock aside. Then he untied Zhuge Liang's rope with his own hands, tidied up his clothes for Zhuge Liang, and tied up his belt again.

After doing all this, Cao Cao returned to Zhuge Liang, looked Zhuge Liang up and down for a while, nodded repeatedly and praised:

"Mr. Kongming is indeed extraordinary. Although he is in prison, he still makes ordinary people less than anything. I have heard that Mr. Kongming has a lot of knowledge and is extremely talented and can't wait to meet him. I feel relieved to have what I want today."

Zhuge Liang knew from the actions of Cao Cao personally loosening himself and tidying up his clothes and tying up his clothes. The next step was to take a look, let Cao Cao continue to appreciate him and then let him go.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang said humbly:

"Mr. Wei Gong was too rewarded. Liang was just a weedy man. After farming, he read some books of poetry, books and soldiers, and there were many fallacies. Wei Gong's praise really made Liang ashamed and dared not take it."

Cao Cao laughed and fell in love with Zhuge Liang more and more.

Wu Fan, who was standing next to him, folded one hand on his chest, touched the beard that had just grown under his forehead with the other hand, and watched Zhuge Liang perform without saying a word.

The two of them talked a few words, and Cao Cao said to the topic:

"Now the Sun family naval army is no longer there, and the land of Jiangdong is about to be settled. How could the world of peace that has been long-awaited for by all the people in the world be around the corner. Mr. Kong Ming has the idea of ​​governing the country and ensuring national stability. Why not join our Cao army and provide advice on the prosperity of the country and the stability of the country? Then our Cao army is fortunate, and the people in the world are fortunate."

At this time, a military officer under Cao Cao came to Cao Cao and whispered to Cao Cao:

"Sir, Zhuge Liang had just met the Governor Wu, and he called you a thief minister several times and called our army a thief army."

After hearing this, Cao Cao laughed and said:

"From ancient times, it is normal for the two sides to speak ill of evil words. When I was fighting in Hebei, I was still scolding me in front of the battlefield. Now I am not a member of my Cao army and do my best to calm the world? This is insignificant."

When Cao Cao said this, he deliberately showed an indifferent look, intending to let Zhuge Liang relieve his concerns. How could Zhuge Liang not know the hint? He felt a little happy in his heart: As expected, everything was in his expectations.

Then, Zhuge Liang beat Cao Cao and said:

"Mr. Wei's mind is rare in ancient times, and Liang was deeply convinced. However, there were loyal ministers who did not serve the two masters in ancient times. Although Liang's lord was defeated and could not cheer up, Liang could not bear to abandon him. He only wanted to follow his lord until his death and fulfill his duties as a minister. Thanks to Mr. Wei's kindness, it is really hard to obey his orders."

These words first praised Cao Cao, further won Cao Cao's favor, and then expressed his loyalty aspirations. Combined with Cao Cao's love for talent, after such words, and Sun Jian's army was unable to cause storms at this time, Cao Cao would definitely not speak out and kill Zhuge Liang.

Sure enough, after hearing Zhuge Liang say this, Cao Cao frowned and sighed, then shook his head, and looked very disappointed. Then he walked down the steps, looked up at Zhuge Liang's back and looked up at the stars in the sky without saying anything.

Seeing that although Cao Cao did not say anything to kill him, Zhuge Liang didn't say whether to let him go or not, he couldn't help but get nervous. However, after analyzing Cao Cao's previous and subsequent performances, Zhuge Liang believed that everything went very smoothly and Cao Cao would let him go in the end.

Inadvertently, Zhuge Liang's eyes swept to Wu Fan who was standing next to him, and he was looking at him coldly, and his whole body immediately trembled.

Wu Fan is now the destined nemesis in Zhuge Liang's eyes. His plan was discovered by this person many times, but he also used the tricks to deal with him. Will this plan that takes advantage of Cao Cao's love for talent be disrupted by this person again? When Zhuge Liang thought of this, his heart immediately hung up.

However, no matter how powerful Wu Fan is, he is still Cao Cao's subordinate. If Cao Cao let him go, he could only watch him leave.

Thinking of this, Zhuge Liang's concerns have been greatly alleviated.

Now, I'm just waiting for Cao Cao to say one sentence.

After waiting for a while, Cao Cao had not spoken. The close military officer came to Cao Cao at this time and asked how to deal with Zhuge Liang. Cao Cao thought for a moment and said:

"Let it go."

After hearing these two words, Zhuge Liang's tense heartstrings finally relaxed and he let out a sigh of relief. Then he turned to look at Wu Fan, with a hint of pride on the corner of his mouth, wanting to see Wu Fan's extremely disappointed expression.

Unexpectedly, Wu Fan had already turned his head and looked elsewhere at this time, and he only did not see Zhuge Liang's actions.

This actually disappointed Zhuge Liang. However, he knew very well that it was important to run away quickly, so as not to make it bad if Cao Cao changed his mind.

Therefore, he no longer struggled with Wu Fan's indifference to his plan, climbed up the war horse led by Cao's soldiers, Zhuge Liang pulled up the reins of the horse and rode his horse to the east along the riverside.

...

But Wu Fan heard that Zhuge Liang rode his horse away, and then said to Cao Cao:

"Brother, are you really going to let this person go?"

When Cao Cao heard something from Wu Fan's words, he turned his head to look at Wu Fan and said in confusion:

"The eighth brother means..."

Wu Fan said:

"Although Jiangdong has no advantage in the navy, the remaining army is not enough to compete with our army. However, Zhuge Liang is very good at strategy and formation, and will definitely cause great harm to our Cao army in the future. The strategy and formation do not require heavy troops to cooperate, and it can even be implemented with only hundreds of thousands of soldiers. Needless to say, Brother Li must be very clear about the strategy. As for the formation alone, it is a blessing for me to escape by chance. If other generals fall into this formation, they will definitely not survive at this time."

These words made Cao Cao stunned, and he also had some doubts in his heart whether the decision to let Zhuge Liang go was correct.

After all, Wu Fan was a military general, and he was much more popular than Cao Cao when he came to the battlefield. Faced with the same problem, the same person, the starting point of the two people was different. Cao Cao often preferred the overall view of the rule as a monarch, how to use talents well, win the hearts of the people, etc., while Wu Fan preferred the life-and-death battle on the battlefield, how to minimize casualties and weaken the enemy's strength, etc.

Wu Fan said again at this time:

"Brother may not know yet, right? Although I escaped by chance this time, Huang Feidian, clawed, died in this formation."

When Cao Cao heard the news, he immediately widened his eyes and said in surprise:

"Claw Huang Feidian is actually... dead?"

Cao Cao had two horses in total, one for the Viagra and the other for the Jaw Huang Feidian. Although Cao Cao sent Jaw Huang Feidian to Wu Fan, his love for Jaw Huang Feidian was not diminished at all. When the two of them walked together, Cao Cao would smile and look at Jaw Huang Feidian for a while, stroke the horse's neck, and combed the mane. The love was self-evident.

Wu Fan also likes Claw Huang Feidian very much. Many times he would rather get hurt by himself than try to avoid Claw Huang Feidian being injured.

Cao Cao was heartbroken when he learned that Jaw Huang Feidian was dead and died in Zhuge Liang's formation. Wu Fan said again:

"Now that our Cao army is about to pacify the world, Zhuge Liang was treated with a generous gift from his elder brother under such circumstances but still refused to surrender. This shows that his intentions are different. Look at these soldiers. They have already paid too much in the process of pacifying the world. Now, for this strange person, can the elder brother bear to let these soldiers suffer more suffering?"

Cao Cao looked at the Cao army soldiers in front of him, and everyone was also looking at Cao Cao. The resentment in his eyes showed everything. Although this era often talked about "a gentleman's word, a quick horse whip", and "a real man should not go back on his word", etc. However, after Wu Fan's explanation, Cao Cao, who was not particularly concerned about his reputation, no longer cared about these things.

Here I might as well mention it: If it were Yuan Shao, even if his subordinates had already explained the truth to him clearly, they would not have changed their minds. The reason was that in Yuan Shao's opinion, doing so would have greatly damaged his reputation.

This is not enough to say that Yuan Shao is very mediocre. Let me evaluate it pertinently: every era will create different value pursuits for people. In this era of valued reputation, Yuan Shao is undoubtedly a benchmark and role model in people's minds. It's a pity that his profession is the monarch, and this pursuit is obviously not so suitable for his profession.

Besides, Cao Cao had changed his mind, and immediately ordered the cavalry troops to chase after him and executed Zhuge Liang on the spot. Wu Fan said again:

"The elder brother doesn't have to mobilize all the troops like this. To be honest, I saw the tragic death of our soldiers in the flip formation, and I had already made up my mind to get rid of this person. Especially the pain of Huang Feidian in the claw, which made me feel heartbroken. If I don't get rid of this person, it will be difficult to comfort my whole life. Please ask my elder brother to kill this person with my own hands to comfort the tragic soldiers and the spirit of Huang Feidian in the claw."

After hearing this, Cao Cao nodded silently and ordered the soldiers to lead a good horse and ride it for his eighth brother.

But Wu Fan waved his hand silently, stood in the direction where Zhuge Liang escaped, and reached out to slowly pull out the golden Zuo Jieyue from behind.

This Zuo Jieyue was rewarded by Emperor Xian as the imperial power, and Wu Fan was given to Wu Fan when he was exterminated by the Ma Teng Alliance Army in the name of abolition of unification and unification. After defeating the Ma Teng Alliance Army, Zuo Jieyue never used it again, just because it is of great significance and represents the emperor's personal expedition, so it is generally difficult to show it out casually.

At this time, Wu Fan's goal was just Zhuge Liang, why did he come up with the meaningful Zuo Jieyue? Wu Fan had his own ideas—

'Didn't you, Zhuge Liang, keep correcting the Han Dynasty and clearing us "traitor army"? This time I will use Zuo Jieyue, which symbolizes the orthodox emperor in your mind, to you. Only in this way can I get greater pleasure'

When Cao Cao saw Wu Fan standing here to pull out Zuo Jieyue, he couldn't help but be stunned. He wondered in his heart what Wu Fan was going to do? He didn't think it was inappropriate for Wu Fan to show Zuo Jieyue at this time, but he didn't understand that Zhuge Liang had run so hard that he couldn't even see the shadow. Wu Fan didn't hurry to chase him, but stood here to pull out Zuo Jieyue...

What is the reason for this?

Not only Cao Cao couldn't understand, but the soldiers around him couldn't understand either. After looking at each other, he turned around and continued to look at Wu Fan in a daze.

But after Wu Fan pulled out Zuo Jieyue, the golden light shone brightly around him. However, he looked at the direction where Zhuge Liang escaped and said:
Chapter completed!
