Chapter 256 Cao Ren fled in a panic

It was already bright, and a red sun was slowly rising in the sky.

On a small path not far from the east, Cao Ren led his soldiers and continued to escape to the west.

"Stop." Suddenly, Cao Ren ordered.

The soldiers were already extremely tired, and now they were escaping with Cao Ren completely based on the desire to survive in their hearts.

It's almost at the verge of collapse.

With Cao Ren's order, countless soldiers suddenly collapsed like mud, sitting or simply falling to the ground. Some people even lost their weapons.

What time is the panic, and the failure is the ultimate.

Cao Ren's eyes swept across the soldiers, his face looking quite ugly. The army he trained himself would have such a day.

This is something Cao Ren never thought of.

However, Cao Ren knew that scolding or military law was useless at this time, and now he was ruling the army with his own personal prestige.

Suddenly, a crisp sound of horse hooves came from the east.

When Cao Ren looked at it, Niu Jin, who was in charge of the palace, led a few cavalrymen to come here.

"What's the situation?" Cao Ren asked loudly in his heart.

"They did not chase after him, the chaser ordered dry food." Niu Jin came to Cao Ren's side with a horse and said with a smile.

In his opinion, the future of the commander of the pursuers was really incompetent. Such a great opportunity should be taken advantage of the victory and actually ordered to stop and use dry food.

But Cao Ren's face turned unexpectedly darkened, and Niu Jin looked at Cao Ren with some strangeness.

"I am very smart." Cao Ren's face looked extremely ugly, and his lips were dry.

"What's wrong? They stopped to rest, didn't they give us a chance to breathe?" Niu Jin was really strange about Cao Ren's concern and couldn't help asking.

"They have dry food, but what about us?" Cao Ren said with a self-deprecating smile.

The defeat last night was really unexpected. The soldiers did not bring any dry food when they escaped. However, the deserted mountains and rivers are not in front of the village or the back of the shop. There is no food.

When the supply is cut off, the more you escape, the more you consume your physical strength. Even if you sit and don’t eat or move, it will consume your physical strength.

The opponent's generals were not in a hurry to pursue, but stopped to rest, eat dry food, and replenish their energy.

He is a very powerful opponent who is very good at taking advantage of his hands.

"What should we do?" Niu Jin immediately realized the seriousness of the problem and asked with a bitter face.

Cao Ren fell into deep thought. Such a powerful opponent was too difficult to deal with.

There are two roads in front of him now. One is that he took a small number of soldiers, abandoned the large army and fled on a small road. This road has a high chance of allowing him to escape.

But the disadvantage is that he admits his failure, and he will never have a chance to deal with the remaining soldiers and fight again.

The second way is to find food, nourish your energy, and then fight with Lai Jiang. Niu Jin had discovered it just now, and there were only about one thousand people on the other side.

And now he has a thousand people, although he has seen a little frustrated. But if he eats and drinks well, he will still be a powerful soldier. Cao Ren absolutely does not want to admit his failure. He was so cruel in his heart that he ordered: "Star all the cavalry and go to the nearby area to see it. When you encounter a village, you will rob the food."

"No." Niu Jin responded to his order and immediately led a few cavalry toward the West.

Cao Ren ordered the soldiers to rest on the spot, try to recover some physical strength and then escape.

But Deng Ai obviously didn't give him much time. Before he could arrive, the cavalry responsible for inquiring about the news came back.

"General, the pursuer is approaching again." The cavalry dismounted and reported.

He was like a dog, and he couldn't let go of it. Cao Ren couldn't help but curse in his heart, but he just cursed in his heart. He had no room for a counterattack.

"Let's go." After Cao Ren gave the order, he immediately turned over and continued to escape towards the West.

After a little rest, the soldiers' physical strength increased slightly, and many people reluctantly stood up and ran away with Cao Ren.

But there are also some people who are unwilling to leave. Some people even lose their energy and fall asleep.

Soon, Cao Ren and others fled westward, leaving only dozens of Cao's soldiers who were either confused or fell asleep.

About a quarter of an hour later, Deng Ai led his army to the death.

The faces of a thousand soldiers, including Deng Ai, were a little rosy than they had just happened. After all, they had just had a rest for a while and ate some dry food.

Their physical strength has recovered by 70% or 80%. And they are confident, not a loser.

Riding his horse at the front, Deng Ai glanced at the dozens of soldiers left by Cao Ren, turned over and dismounted, and came to a Cao army soldier.

This soldier is about thirty years old. Judging from his body shape and a wound on his face, he should be a powerful soldier who has experienced war.

But at this time, he was lying weakly, shooting out the despair of the defeated army in his eyes.

Deng Ai looked at the soldier silently, and the soldier looked at Deng Ai without any reason.

"Who is the general in front?" Deng Ai asked after a moment of silence.

A little sarcasm appeared on Cao's soldiers' faces and looked at Deng Ai silently.

"These soldiers are really loyal." Deng Ai said silently in his heart, but a hint of coldness appeared on Deng Ai's face. Even if he didn't say it, he would know who it was after he was caught.

And Deng Ai was already a little sure of who this person was?

Cao Ren.

When he thought of these two names in his heart, even with Deng Ai's calmness, he couldn't help but be moved. Deng Ai immediately ordered: "Leave ten people to escort these people to Liucheng. If you remember that you should not feed them dry food before you reach the city, don't give them water, so as not to be able to control it."

"No." Ten people immediately came out of the stroke, and he kept it.

Deng Ai glanced at it and immediately led a large army to chase the West.

Chase and run, and it took another ten miles.

After escaping for ten miles, the soldiers were almost exhausted. It was difficult to walk a few more steps. But a village appeared ahead of them.

A village with smoke from cooking stoves.

Niu Jin's figure also appeared in front of him.

"General, the village has prepared food, eat soon." Niu Jin came to Cao Ren and said.

"Yes." Cao Ren nodded, looked at the village ahead, and felt some hope in his heart, just eat some food, just eat some food.

Immediately, Cao Ren ordered the soldiers to enter the village.

The village had already prepared hot meals, but the village was not big, and no matter how much food it had, it was not enough for the soldiers to eat.

There was a fight because of the food. Cao Ren had to order the distribution. This delayed a lot of time. When the food was distributed to the soldiers, there were only a few bites of food for each person. Cao Ren had to order the soldiers to eat some raw food, such as soybeans, and eat it.

If it is difficult to swallow, just eat it with water.

Despite this, the soldiers still ate in tears, having been hungry for too long and having escaped for too long.

As a general, Cao Ren had of course allocated more cooked food, but Cao Ren distributed all the excess to his personal soldiers. Now, it is time to share hardships and eat alone, and eating alone is seeking death.

After eating a few bites of food, he faced the respectful gaze of the soldiers around him because they had distributed some more food.

Cao Ren's hope in his heart increased a lot again. After eating some, he could have more energy as long as he rested for a while, and then he would fight to the death with the pursuers.

Then return to Liucheng and gather the scattered escaped soldiers.

"Woo woo." At this moment, the sound of the rhino horn sounded from afar, and the sound was rapid.

The hope that had just risen in Cao Ren's heart was extinguished. His face looked ugly and how could the pursuers blow up rhino horns? This was a naked announcement to them that the pursuers had been killed.

Escape quickly.

An unhidden humiliation rose from Cao Ren's heart. Cao Ren clenched his fists, his expression ferocious and terrifying.

If you can escape this time, you will definitely return it ten times the day in the future.

"General, the pursuers are chasing each other, so it is not a solution to escape like this. We calculated that there may not be a city within 100 miles. If we can lead 500 people to stop the pursuers for a moment, General, you should lead the remaining 500 people to continue to march westward." Listening to the sound of the trumpet in the distance, Niu Jin's face was also ugly. After a moment of silence, he raised his fist to Cao Ren.

Cao Ren felt a little moved when he heard this. At this time, if you go to the queen, you will die.

Niu Jin can do this, which shows his loyalty. But the tiger falls into the sun and is bullied by the dog. Now Cao Ren has fully confirmed this sentence.

Even if Niu Jin resisted it, he would not be able to escape the fate of destruction. If that damn pursuer had known this, he would rather fight to the death with him from the beginning.

While Cao Ren was moved, a sense of despair also arose in his heart.

Now, there are still two roads in front of Cao Ren. One is to escape with most of them until they are caught up and captured.

Second, it is to disguise itself and escape in another direction.

The first point was very difficult. Cao Ren looked at the soldiers who had eaten some food but were unable to get a rest, and was almost desperate to lead the troops and fight with Liu Feng again.

Without any hope of gathering the remaining soldiers to fight to the death with Liu Feng, Cao Ren had to choose to disguise himself.

"Mudang, you will continue to lead the troops to move westward, and you will be able to escape as long as you can." Cao Ren gritted his teeth in his heart, and decided to abandon the army and escape first and then find a way.

Mudang is one of the few lieutenants who are currently with Cao Ren. In the past, he was also a general who Cao Ren focused on training, but at this time he had to bear the pain of giving up.

"No." Mudang responded without hesitation.

The pursuers got closer and closer, and Cao Ren knew that it was not the time to delay. He ordered Mu Dang, and he and Niu Jin and a few others immediately put on the pawn's clothes.

Then, Mu Dang led his troops to continue to go west, while Cao Ren mixed with Cao's soldiers and walked west together.

After leaving the village, Cao Ren and others pretended to be left behind and landed at the end of the army. After getting a distance, Cao Ren glanced at Dongfang, and a bit of hideousness flashed in his eyes. Liu Feng, I will come back.

Immediately, he resolutely led a few people including Niu Jin and went north.

The reason why Cao Ren separated from the army when he left the village and put on the pawn's clothes was to prevent the villagers from seeing what they could see.

Beware of leaking news.

When he was separated from the main force just now, Cao Ren also looked around and felt that there was no one, so he led Niu Jin and others to leave north.

But unfortunately.

To the south, a middle-aged man was lying on the ground, and he dared to raise his head slightly to look north. That was the direction where Cao Ren led Niu Jin and others to leave, and the middle-aged man looked greedy in his eyes.
