    "Hehe!! Xiaojuan'er, at that time, I can live with you in two places, be fair and upright, and go to Wushan with you every night, be free and happy, and enjoy all the glory and wealth!!"

    Zhou Cong secretly cursed in his heart, his eyes full of greed and filth.  Zhou Qiang saw this and sneered in his heart, but on the surface he pretended to be concerned and ordered softly.

    "There are many difficulties in going here. If there is an emergency, your life is not guaranteed, so I need to be more careful. If you don't want to take risks, and I won't force you, I can just go there myself!!"

    As soon as Zhou Qiang said these words, Zhou Cong's expression suddenly changed, and he pretended to go to justice with no fear, but his long and thin face and his pair of narrow eyes like a rat thief only made him look even more vulgar.

    "My brother is the leader of the clan. How can I take risks with my body worth thousands of dollars!? I am willing to go through fire and water, go up mountains of swords and go down seas of fire, no matter what!!"

    Zhou Qiang listened, sighed, pressed Zhou Cong's shoulder, and whispered.  

    "My dear brother, I am very satisfied to have such thoughts. In the past, my brother was harsh to you, all because of your early success. Seeing you like this today, my brother's cultivation is really not in vain!"  !¡±

    Zhou Cong said yes, but in his heart he sneered and slandered.

    "Hmph!! A dog's mouth can't spit out ivory!! Zhou Qiang, you hypocritical villain, you have always regarded me as a thorn in your side, and you want to get rid of me quickly. Do you think I don't know!? Wait until I stand up this time.  I want you to taste the feeling of life being worse than death!"

    At this moment, Zhou Cong had already thought of no less than ten ways to torture Zhou Qiang.  Zhou Qiang didn't know it, but he immediately finished the delivery with Zhou Cong and ordered him to set off early.  Zhou Cong accepted the order and secretly sneaked out of the city with dozens of his confidants and rushed to the Wei army's stronghold.

    But it was said that the Wei army had returned home with a great victory, and all the generals came to see him one after another, all asking questions.

    "How do you predict that the Wu thieves will come out of the city to attack today?"

    Cao Cao smiled brightly and spoke slowly and calmly.

    "Our army holds powerful siege weapons such as thunderbolt chariots and attacks with stones from a distance. The Wu thieves are entrenched in the city and have no power to fight back. If they don't make any progress, they will just sit back and wait for death. I believe that there are many bloody people in the Wu thieves' army.  Dingyu fought with his back to the water, hoping to destroy the Thunderbolt Chariot and secure Nanchang. Therefore, I issued an order early and ordered 50,000 soldiers and horses to ambush the Wu thieves first, and then follow the order to attack and kill them.  What a surprise!"

    As soon as Cao Cao said this, all the generals woke up one after another and worshiped together.

    ¡°Your Majesty¡¯s miraculous plan and strategies are unparalleled and unparalleled by anyone!!¡±

    Cao Cao was very happy, laughed loudly, and talked to all the generals.

    "It also depends on the efforts of you and other civil and military personnel, how can I take the credit!"

    So Cao Cao rewarded all the troops heavily, and all the generals and soldiers were very happy.  Even Wang Ping was rewarded by Cao Cao, and Wang Ping politely accepted it. However, Cao Cao repeatedly asked for the reward, and Wang Ping couldn't shirk it, so he had to accept it.  At this moment, a scout suddenly came to report that he had captured a team of dozens of people at the foot of the mountain. He claimed that he was from the Zhou clan in Nanchang, and that he had something confidential and wanted to see Cao Cao.  When Cao Cao heard this, he frowned and asked the people around to bring him in.  After a while, Zhou Cong and a group of his followers were taken to Cao Cao's camp by Wei soldiers.  All the Wei generals in the tent had cold faces and cast their eyes away one after another.  Zhou Cong was so frightened that he quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed in greeting.  Cao Cao squinted his eyes that could swallow the sky, and looked at Zhou Cong coldly. Seeing his wretched appearance, he felt a little unhappy and asked coldly.

    "Why are you waiting for Yu to come to see me!?"

    Cao Cao's voice was not loud, but it was full of majesty. Zhou Cong had never seen such a person before. He was trembling all over and quickly followed Zhou Qiang's instructions to report everything.

    "Your Majesty, I am a member of the Zhou clan in Nanchang. Sun Zhongmou is fatuous and incompetent and cannot protect Nanchang. Therefore, my clan brother Zhou Qiang wishes to surrender the clan to the Wei Dynasty. Tonight, my clan brother saw a large movement of troops and horses in the city. It must be Sun Zhongmou who found it difficult to stop your majesty.  The heroic army is about to evacuate, so I sent a villain to report it. Now my brother has prepared his troops and is ready at any time. In three days, he will open the north gate of Nanchang and present Nanchang to your majesty.  Not only can we capture Nanchang without any effort, but we can also take advantage of the situation to defeat the Wu soldiers and capture Sun Zhongmou in one fell swoop!"

    Zhou Cong is articulate and eloquent.  After hearing this, Cao Cao's face turned cold and he looked at Zhou Cong carefully.  Zhou Cong lowered his head and did not dare to look directly. He shrank and bowed.  I don't know how long it took before Cao Cao spoke.

    "I already know it. You can send a few people back to report, and the rest will rest in the military stronghold first. If what you said is true, when Nanchang City is defeated and the success is achieved, there will naturally be an indispensable reward!!  "

    After hearing this, Zhou Cong looked overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly. Then he quickly retreated with all his confidants and asked several people to go back and report to Zhou Qiang. The rest followed Cao Cao's instructions and rested in the stronghold first, waiting for news.  Not long after Zhou Cong left, Cao Cao sneered in his heart and looked at the people in the tent.??, the speaker asked.

    "In your opinion, is this matter credible?"

    He opened his jaw, his expression sank, and attended the ceremony.

    "Now there are not many troops in Nanchang City, and the Wu thieves have no way to defeat our army's thunderbolt chariot. Sun Zhongmou knew that it was difficult to defeat him, so he wanted to withdraw, and returned to Wu County to recruit troops and horses, and then fight to the death with our army. According to this calculation, this  It¡¯s not true.¡±

    After hearing this, Cao Cao was silent and looked at Xia Houyuan.  Xia Houyuan stared blankly and shouted with emotion.

    "Our army has the upper hand, so why bother? After the armies rest for a night, we will personally lead the troops the next day, break through the city gate with thunder chariots, and kill the Wu thieves!!"

    After Xia Houyuan finished speaking, Cao Cao remained silent and then looked at Jiang Wei.  Jiang Wei's face hardened and he bowed his hands.

    "If we want to attack head-on, the Wu thieves will fight tooth and nail to resist, and casualties are inevitable. In Yiwei's opinion, if the Wu thieves really want to retreat, there will be some movement. Your Majesty can send scouts to visit high places around Nanchang, and you can make your own conclusion!!"

    After Cao Cao heard this, his face changed, he nodded and smiled.

    "What Boyo said is the best for me!"

    So, Cao Cao followed Jiang Wei's advice and sent scouts outside Nanchang City to inquire about what was going on inside the city.  The next day, in Nanchang City, Wu soldiers from various departments packed their bags.  After hearing the scout's report, all the generals thought that Soochow was about to withdraw and asked for a fight one after another.  Cao Cao's face was cold and he ordered his troops to stand still.  At night, the scouts came to report again, and many soldiers and horses of Soochow withdrew from the south gate.  The generals urged him to go out to fight, but Cao Cao still refused to go out.  On the second day, the scout came again to report that most of the Soochow troops and horses in the city had been withdrawn.  The city was empty.  After hearing this, all the generals were very anxious and wanted to fight.  Cao Cao suddenly laughed.

    "Haha, the talent of Soochow is extraordinary, and this time they are trying to trick me to make money, how can I fall into the trap!!"

    Cao Cao suddenly laughed. When the generals heard this, they were all confused and asked questions hurriedly.  Cao Cao's expression condensed, his eyes shone brightly, and he spoke slowly and calmly in a cold voice.

    "The Soochow Army pretended to evacuate, and the Zhou clan members came to retaliate deliberately in order to lure our army into the city. If my calculation is correct, in fact, the withdrawal of soldiers and horses was just a disguise by the people. But the soldiers were actually  Lie in ambush inside the city, and when our troops enter, they will set fire to it. If our troops are not prepared, they will be killed by the Wu thieves!"

    As soon as Cao Cao said this, all the generals had their expressions unchanged, and many of them had a bit of doubt in their eyes, seemingly not believing it.  Cao Cao sneered, and quickly sent his scouts to pursue and investigate.  At the time of the first update, the scouts reported that the soldiers and horses withdrawn from Nanchang were indeed uneven and undisciplined. They were all a mob!

    After hearing the report, all the generals woke up and apologized one after another, saying in unison.

    "If it weren't for His Majesty's divine calculation, we would have almost missed this important event!!"

    Cao Cao waved his hand, his eyes were cold, and he spoke to the generals again.

    "When I saw Zhou Cong a while ago, he had a sinister eyebrow, a rat's eye, a sharp tongue, and was good at speaking, I knew that this person was not trustworthy. I sent an order to behead all of Zhou Cong's men at the camp gate and show them to the three armies. At the same time, I gave the order.  The three armies must not move lightly!¡±

    Cao Cao gave the order, and all the generals took the order one after another.  But Zhou Cong waited for two days and saw that the time was coming. He was very happy and was thinking about how to torture Zhou Qiang and live a free life after he gained power in the future.  Suddenly, there was a sound of fighting and rapid footsteps outside the tent.  Zhou Cong was shocked and looked at all the confidants in the tent.  At this moment, suddenly a Wei general led his troops into the tent with murderous intent. Without saying a word, they captured Zhou Cong and others.  Zhou Cong was immediately frightened out of his wits, heartbroken, and even said he was not guilty.  But the Wei general refused to listen and took Zhou Cong and others under the camp gate.  Zhou Cong's screams soon turned into screams like a slaughtered pig.  Pieces of blood rained up, and in a moment, heads fell to the ground and rolled.  Zhou Cong's head rolled to the feet of a Wei soldier, and his pair of narrow eyes were full of horror, unwillingness, and fear.  The Wei Bing spat on Zhou Cong's face, then stepped on him and turned him into a pulp.

    Unjust is doomed to destruction.  Before Zhou Cong died, he never imagined that the person who killed him was his clan brother Zhou Qiang, whom he had always regarded as incompetent!  And on the night Zhou Cong died, Zhou Qiang's concubine was secretly whipped to death by Zhou Qiang's clan servants. After her death, her body was cut into pieces and fed to dogs.

    On the third day, the scouts came to report that there were no soldiers and horses from Soochow in the city.  Cao Cao thought it was a fraud and still made no progress.  A few days later, Cao Cao heard that there was something strange in Nanchang City, so he went to investigate in person. After watching for a while, he noticed the clues and immediately ordered the three armies to test and attack the city.  Unexpectedly, when the people of Nanchang in the city saw the Wei soldiers coming with great force, they immediately opened the city gate and dedicated the city.  Cao Cao was suspicious and quickly asked Jiang Wei to lead an army into the city to investigate. Jiang Wei received the order and entered quickly.  Half an hour later, Jiang Wei sent a general back to report that there were no soldiers from Soochow in the city.The treasury in Zhongcanglin is completely empty!  After hearing this, Cao Cao realized that he had fallen into the trap and shouted angrily. He wanted to send troops to pursue meanderingly, but he thought that the Soochow soldiers had already withdrawn far away.  Nanchang.  Wei soldiers swarmed into the city, and sure enough, there were no Wu soldiers in the city. Cao Cao ordered his people to capture the Zhou clan quickly, but he didn't know that Zhou Qiang had already escaped with the Soochow army yesterday.

    Cao Cao was angry and regretful, but now that the matter was over, Cao Cao had no choice but to suppress his anger and reorganize the three armies in Nanchang City first.  However, although Cao Cao was defeated by the Soochow Army, Nanchang City finally fell into the hands of his own army.  Cao Cao's anger quickly subsided and he discussed with a group of soldiers that night.
