Chapter 712 The Last Straw that Broke the Camel's Back

Today is destined to be Meng Huo's most surprising day.

Because, just after he met Zhuge Liang, he couldn't wait to go to Madam Zhu Rong's room to share his guesses, his tendencies, and in his mind... Zhuge Liang's personality charm with Madam.

At least, from now on, he, Meng Huo, was determined not to believe that the assassination of his daughter would be done under the orders of Zhuge Liang, who was so upright and righteous.

He trotted quickly until he reached Madam Zhu Rong's tent...

He was about to lift the door curtain and step inside.

Who would have thought that standing outside the tent, a voice of surprise, surprise, and horror came from Madam Zhu Rong.

"So, Guan Suo not only saved you? He also... also... slept with you?"

When this sound came out, Meng Huo was a little confused.

Guan Suo? Who?

Who did you sleep with again?

But before he could think about it, another female voice came from the tent.

"mother…"

The tone was a little twitchy, but it still contained the tenacity and courage unique to the sons and daughters of the barbarians.

It was this female voice that surprised Meng Huo.

No one else!

It's... it's the voice of his daughter Huawan.

At this time, Meng Huo was shocked and excited. He felt for a time that he was hallucinating, and he even rubbed his ears.

At the same time... countless question marks rushed to his forehead.

Wasn't my daughter Huawan assassinated?

So why is her voice here?

etc? Sleeping with you? Guan Suo?

Meng Huo suddenly came to his senses and realized an extremely serious thing, that is, her daughter was still alive, but it seemed that her daughter had been raped by a pig!

this…

Just when Meng Huo couldn't wait to break into it.

Huawan's voice came out again, "Mom, he is so powerful, he looks like a reckless elephant, with infinite strength..."

"Then...what are you?"

"I am naturally a female elephant in love..."

This is such a barbarian answer!

Following Hua Wan's answer, Mrs. Zhu Rong was a little messy at this moment, and Meng Huo outside the door was even more messy.

Huawan didn't seem to realize how much his words had shocked her parents. She spoke unabashedly as always, "Didn't Mom say that Dad has been blessed with five concubines at the same time at most? So, Dad Guan Sobi Much stronger, that night, he was full...full..."

Looking at the flower garland, I was about to chant the number "six"...

only.

"Wan'er——"

Meng Huo stopped his daughter's speech by calling her directly.

yes…

This can't be said any more!

Can a husband and father compare this kind of thing?

When he saw Meng Huo's flower garland, he jumped up happily and was hugged by his father...

Meng Huo looked at his daughter distressedly.

"Wan'er, are you okay? Didn't you get assassinated? Did you fall off a cliff? Are you okay? Are you injured anywhere?"

Meng Huo was sizing up his daughter, but there was no trace of the weakness in Huawan after being injured. Instead, her face was radiant, her heart and face full of ruddy, excited, and joyful joy.

It was as if after that night, the wounds were healed!

"Dad, I am very good, very good. There will never be a better time than I am now..."

Hua Wan's mood is beyond words.

But when she said this, she suddenly thought of something, "By the way...Dad, I forgot, I haven't taken you to see Guan Suo yet? He...he...he is even more powerful than dad!"

Well…

Why did Meng Huo feel so awkward and messy when hearing these words?

How come this kid speaks without going through his brain and speaks without any restraint!

…

…

Chang'an.

Xiahou Dun, who was stationed here, was eating, but the food had not yet entered his mouth, so he couldn't help but sigh "Alas".

Then he put down his chopsticks, closed his eyes and concentrated, looking worried.

"Dad? Why have you been so sad these days?"

His son Xiahou Zizang asked.

Another son, Xiahou Zijiang, also frowned, "Are you worried about the current situation? I heard... that in the Battle of Luoyang, our Wei army was defeated, Cao Zhen was captured... his life and death are uncertain, and Cao Zhang's whereabouts are also missing..."

Xiahou Zijiang said this.

Xiahou Zizang also had something to say, "This is all the information from the past few days. In my opinion, dad is still worried about the Hanzhong battlefield, and he doesn't know how the battle was fought over there? Guo Huai is dead, and Ma is dead. ...Li Dian, Xia Houwei, and Xia Hourong were captured...tens of thousands of soldiers were gone in just a few days...In my opinion, our father is blind. Otherwise, if our father had taken command, how could our Wei Dynasty be in such a state now? ?”

"Zizang——"

This time it was Li Miao, who was sitting at the table, who spoke.

Li Miao was also drunk. For a moment, he had a feeling, were these two children Xiahou Dun's biological children?

It’s simply a matter of which pot you don’t want to open!

Yes, our father is blind!

In a land like the Wei Dynasty, these words... Even if they are certain facts, how can they be stated so openly?

Sure enough, following Li Miao's words, Xiahou Dun's two sons who couldn't speak shut their mouths.

It is clear…

Now in this room, except for Xiahou Dun, his sons and his clan members all obey Li Miao.

Speaking of which, Li Miao was Xiahou Dun's adopted son, but with the development of the current situation, his kindness to the Xiahou family was too great, and he was no longer just an adopted son.

Xiahou Dun and the Xiahou family have accepted him, and Xiahou Zizang and Xiahou Zijiang have treated him as their own brother.

It is no exaggeration to say that if Xiahou Dun was not at this table, everyone would have to wait for Li Miao to use his chopsticks first.

"Ahem——"

It seemed that because of what his two sons said, Xiahou Dun coughed violently and became a little angry.

Li Miao patted Xiahou Dun on the back and said, "Father, don't be angry. Zi Zang and Zi Jiang are still young. They speak freely and have no ill intentions..."

"Don't I know that they are... brave and foolhardy. They only know how to dance with spears and sticks and practice martial arts. What's the use of that?"

Xiahou Dun opened his mouth angrily, and his next words became more helpless and dejected: "Xiwu? Xiwu... Can martial arts save the current Wei Dynasty?"

Well…

These words suddenly choked Xiahou Zijiang and Xiahou Zang. They looked at each other and muttered in their hearts, that's not what their father said back then!

What my father said back then was that the Cao family and the Xiahou family were both Qiao Pei warriors. As long as they practiced martial arts well, they would make great achievements.

Why now.

"cough…"

Xiahou Dun coughed again, and then changed the topic, "Hannan, tell these two bastards, why am I bothered?"

"Yes!" After agreeing, Li Miao said: "It was your sister-in-law who proposed to her adoptive father that she wanted to remarry..."

What?

Xiahou Zijiang and Xiahou Zang raised their heads suddenly and subconsciously shouted at the same time.

"Princess Qinghe?"

…

Over here, Xiahou Dun was still discussing with his two sons that his daughter-in-law, Princess Qinghe, wanted to remarry.

Over there, there is a military fortress a hundred miles away from Chang'an City.

This military fortress was built by Dong Zhuo in the third year of Dongping Dynasty. It is known as the famous Xiwu that "if it succeeds, it will conquer the world; if it fails, it will be enough to stay here until you are old".

At this moment, the guard was still eating his meal leisurely.

Suddenly, the garrison at the top of the city broke in with disgrace and reported: "General, general, it's not good, it's not good... Guan Yu is leading the Guan family's army... The Guan family's army has arrived at the city!"

The guard's face was full of disbelief. "What are you talking nonsense about? Isn't Guan Yu in Luoyang? Isn't he resisting Zhang Wenyuan at Hulao Pass? How could he lead the Guan family's army here?"

Indeed... Luoyang is thousands of miles away from here!

What's more, even if you want to come to Chang'an, you have to pass through Tongguan and Wuguan...

Along the way, Cao Wei was surrounded by hidden sentries!

Having said that, Xiwu had heard a lot about the defeat of Cao Zhang and Cao Zhen, but there was never any news - Guan Yu led the Guan family's army to kill them!

This is unreasonable!

etc…

The guard suddenly came back to his senses, "They...where did they come from? Where is Chang'an? Shouldn't they attack Chang'an first?"

That's right, Xiwu is to the west of Chang'an. If the Guan family army came from Tongguan, then...then they should attack Chang'an first!

This is exactly the meaning of Xiwu's existence. It forms an angle with Chang'an City and can rush to help at any time...

But now...

"Hanzhong...is it Hanzhong? Is it Qinling? No...is it Ziwu Valley?"

The guard just came back to his senses...

The defender said anxiously, "It's really Guan Yu...it's Guan Jiajun. General, go and have a look!"

At this time, the guard general was stunned and rushed up to the city with several defenders. He saw the Guan army sharpening their swords swarming towards here...

He could even see clearly the sword of the enemy's leader general.

It’s not the Qinglong Yanyue Sword, but it looks sharper than the Qinglong Yanyue Sword——

As for the leading general, because he did not have the iconic long beard, it seemed that he was not Guan Yu. But when he raised his head, the guard's legs gave way and he collapsed to the ground.

This god-destroying look is not Guan Yu's? Who else could it be?

For a moment, he was so frightened that his mouth was half open and his mouth was drooling. He stammered: "Guan Yu... Guan Yu is here..."

The defender asked from the side: "General, we... what should we do?"

The guard general sat down, twisted his mouth, and said in despair, "We only have a few hundred people here? There are only three thousand people in Chang'an? Guard? What to guard? Kaicheng...Kaicheng, surrender, surrender - —”

Facing Guan Yu and Guan Jiajun, who are like divine soldiers descended from the sky...

A defender who knows the disparity between strengths and weaknesses can only make the wisest choice.

--surrender!

--surrender!

…

…

At the foot of Lutou Mountain, at the foot of Luofeng Slope, Zhuge Liang was taken into a barbarian military tent. This was obviously a temporary detention place. There was nothing else in the room except a brazier.

Outside, a row of barbarian soldiers stood.

The night wind blew, and the flames flickered on and off. Cheng Yu was warming himself leisurely in it. He looked up and saw Zhuge Liang and pursed his lips with a smile.

"Unexpectedly, I met Mr. Zhuge here again... It seems that as the envoys of Han and Wei, you and I will reveal the secret of victory and defeat in this tent!"

Zhuge Liang walked over slowly, put his hand on the fire to heat it, and said calmly: "Just outside this tent, another big pot has been set up..."

Cheng Yu seemed to have heard the noise, "It seems that one of you or I will step into the boiling water when we walk out of this tent!"

Because Cheng Yu was imprisoned in the detention tent first, he seemed to have had some forebodings.

He wondered: "I can't figure out why the Barbarian King doesn't use the invincible strategy I proposed! Could it be that you can propose any more attractive method to him?"

Zhuge Liang replied: "Pretend to promise me, then lead the army to withdraw from this dangerous place, and use me as a hostage in exchange for Chengdu. What a wonderful calculation, what a wonderful plot..."

Don't wait for Zhuge Liang to finish speaking.

Cheng Yu seemed to have broken his guard, "Then why? The Barbarian King didn't use my strategy? Instead, he listened to your eloquent words! How did you bewitch him?"

"Does this still need to be bewitched?" Zhuge Liang said lightly.

What he actually wanted to tell Cheng Yu was that he took out his sincerity without reservation to treat the barbarian king and the barbarians. How could the barbarians not understand this?

Sincerity is a surefire skill——

In terms of sincerity, this was Zhuge Liang's complete victory when facing Cheng Yu——

But in the end, Zhuge Liang didn't say that.

Maybe he wanted Cheng Yu to lose less miserably;

Perhaps it is the original kindness and kindness in my heart...

Zhuge Liang let out a long breath and said softly: "There is no need to bewitch at all, because the barbarian princess was not dead in the first place, she came back fine, and she told the barbarian king all the truth! "

Ah...ah...

Cheng Yu was startled. He felt his legs staggered and fell to the ground. The tent suddenly became quiet. Cheng Yu was almost holding his breath. He could only hear the slight crackling sound in the brazier. ...Undoubtedly, the final judgment was issued to Cheng Yu!

No…

This is the final judgment issued to Da Wei!

Zhuge Liang took a deep breath and said no more.

Cheng Yu looked up to the sky and laughed, "Impossible, absolutely impossible... Oh, Zhuge Kongming, are you bluffing me? You are trying to induce me to speak... Those barbarians outside the door are listening to what you and I say... right? ? Really? Haha... I'm almost going to fall for you!"

At this time...

I saw the barbarian general Wu Tu Gu leading his troops in. He faced Cheng Yu with a heavy voice.

"The rebel Wei is so shameless. He secretly sent an assassin to murder my barbarian princess, and blamed the matter on Chengdu. Hmph... pull this messenger of the rebel Wei out and push him into the frying pan!"

this…

If Zhuge Liang had just said it, Cheng Yu could still choose not to listen or believe it.

So now...the iron-clad facts are before our eyes.

But after only a short period of shock, his expression became calm again. What storms and waves has he not experienced in his life? When there is no food, human meat is dried in the sun! When you have no money, digging a tomb for the King of Wei is like a ghost in the Central Plains seeking revenge.

Haha, becoming a king and losing a bandit means death, right?

The last thing he fears is death!

At this time, Cheng Yu stood up calmly. He picked up a bowl of wine and drank it in one gulp. Zhuge Liang also stood up slowly and looked at Cheng Yu calmly.

Cheng Yu said, "You won, you got your wish! The crisis of the Southern Barbarian invasion... has been eliminated! You Zhuge Kongming is worthy of the name of Crouching Dragon, you are so powerful!"

Zhuge Liang shook his head, "It's not that I'm powerful, but the truth should never be buried. Good and evil will eventually be rewarded... You didn't lose to me, but to the justice and justice of this world! You entered that boiling oil pot , I will not get what I want... What really gets my wish are the thousands of people who have been turned into flesh by you, and the countless bones whose family life has been emptied by you... It is you who have helped you in this life - "

The words came out of his mouth.

"Haha..." Cheng Yu smiled, looking up to the sky and laughing, "I am such a helper of evil. Before I die, I can hear the words of Wolong Zhuge. It is worth it for me! Think about what you have said about what I have done over the years. Damn it, I really don’t regret dying!”

Zhuge Liang slowly backed away and opened the way to the door and hell.

His voice continued. "When my master Liu Xuande teaches his son, he always puts forward these two sentences: Don't ignore the good deeds because they are small, and don't do them because the evil is small...Perhaps this is because he sees further and more deeply, and sees this The final chapter of good and evil... I saw the final fate of good and evil! "

Cheng Yu smiled: "Kong Ming, if you speak to your lord, I will also speak to my lord! Let me tell you something in return. King Wei is the master of talents. He uses talents in an eclectic way. There are many criminals under him. But these people are the foundation for the great Wei Dynasty to set sail! King Wei, even if he does evil, even if he does not admit it, he will change it. He is a hero who knows his mistakes, corrects them, and does not admit his mistakes... And I am loyal to him, Even if it’s evil, even if it’s a villain’s behavior, we are all really villains!”

"But your lord, Liu Bei and Liu Xuande, haha, he borrowed a knife from Baimenlou to kill Lu Bu, repaying kindness with revenge; he threw children to impress his generals, this is to win people's hearts; he led the people across the river, this is to use the people's bunker to protect himself It's hard to escape the thoroughness, not to mention... He betrayed his faith and sought the territory of Liu Zhang, the same clan in Yizhou, not to mention that he repeatedly abandoned his wife and children... Haha, such a person, even if he wins in the end, even if he is not a villain, But he is also a hypocrite, a king who will be ten times more ruthless and cruel than Liu Bang!"

At this point, Cheng Yu paused and his voice became more serious.

he continued.

"The birds are gone, the good bows are hidden, the cunning rabbits are dead, and the running dogs are cooked... Haha, whether you are Zhuge Kongming, Guan Yu, Guan Yunchang, or even Guan Lin, the rebellious son of the Guan family, what will happen to you in the future? Hahaha... maybe this world will be unified In the future, within a few years, you will end up with the same fate as me! You will lose to this hypocrite! This is my advice to you, or rather - a curse!"

At this point, Cheng Yu laughed maliciously, drank all the wine in the bowl, and then slammed the bowl down.

The remaining wine entered the fire, and a bright flame burst into flames. In the light of the fire, Cheng Yu walked out.

Step by step, he walked towards the boiling oil pot.

His first step behind the military tent was when he rose to prominence in Dong'a County during the Yellow Turban Uprising;

The second step was in the third year of Chuping, when he ordered Yu Shizhu to assess the situation and join Cao Cao;

The third step was in the first year of Xingping, Cao Cao's rear area Yanzhou was attacked by Lu Bu. He knew military strategy and defended the last city in Yanzhou loyal to Cao Cao, gaining the basis and possibility for a comeback against the wind;

The fourth step was in the first year of Jian'an, when he and Xun Yu urged Cao Cao to welcome the emperor;

The fifth step was the shortage of military rations. He resolutely took on the task of raising food, and dried human meat came into being...

There are also steps six and seven...

And this last step of sending an envoy to Nanman——

Every step leading to the boiling oil pot, Cheng Yu's memories emerged in his heart. Those memory fragments and those glorious moments made him fearless and made him move forward without fear.

He has reached that high place, and the boiling oil pot is emitting suffocatingly hot smoke...

Cheng Yu looked back and seemed to have seen every step he took. When he raised his head, he saw Zhuge Liang in front of the big tent in the distance. He smiled brightly at Zhuge Liang.

Then turned around...

He shouted loudly, "Long live the great Wei, long live the King of Wei, long live the great Wei, long live the King of Wei——"

After shouting here, he opened his eyes and faced the terror, and his whole body fell into the hot oil pot like a zombie.

But even if his body enters the oil pan...

He seemed to be still shouting with his mind.

——"Long live the Wei Dynasty, long live the King of Wei!"

——"Long live the Wei Dynasty, long live the King of Wei!"

This scene made everyone watching extremely moved——

Even Zhuge Liang couldn't help but chant.

"Which King of Wei has gained someone——"

Speaking of this, Zhuge Liang quickly calmed down...

Move your thoughts away from Cheng Yu.

He still has some things to do...

No, he still has a lot of things to do——

And the first thing that bears the brunt is to use the Barbarian King's army to support the Lord's side!

This...this is the huge foreshadowing that Yun Qi and Wei Zhi earned for him.

What he has to do is to turn this foreshadowing into weight!

this…

In Zhuge Liang's view, it will also be the last straw that breaks the death of Cao Cao, no, the death of Ni Wei!
