Chapter 469 Zhao Zilong, a Man of Unparalleled Courage
"After Xiahou Yuan's death, it greatly affected the morale of Cao Cao's army. From the Battle of Guandu in Jian'an 5 to the Battle of Hanzhong, Xiahou Yuan followed Cao Cao in his campaigns."
“He had a lot of seniority and influence in the army, so in order to appease the troops, Zhang He was promoted and temporarily put in command of the armies in Hanzhong.”
"It can be said that up to this point, Liu Bei had the initiative and victory was just around the corner, while Cao Cao's army was on the defensive. However, Cao Cao arrived in just three months."
"During Liu Bei's early years of building his career, he was constantly on the move and forced to wander by Cao Cao. Now, after half a lifetime of ups and downs, in the twilight of his life, these two brothers have come face to face again!"
"At this time, Cao Cao's army was transporting and stockpiling tens of thousands of tons of grain, which Huang Zhong saw. He decisively seized Cao Cao's grain."
"Who knew they would be surrounded instead? But they had made an appointment with Zhao Yun before they left, and by then it was already several days overdue. Zhao Yun's heart skipped a beat, and he knew that they had failed."
"Zhao Yun rode to provide support, but unexpectedly encountered Cao Cao's army, which pursued them closely. However, Zhao Yun opened the camp gates wide, as if to lead them in."
"Thus, with the Empty City Stratagem in effect, no one in Cao Cao's army dared to advance, fearing an ambush. They were ready to retreat. Just then, Zhao Yun beat the war drums, and the soldiers unleashed a barrage of arrows and crossbows, ultimately leading to a great defeat for Cao Cao's army!"
"Even Liu Bei, upon learning this, said: 'Zilong is full of courage.' This saying has become the origin of the idiom 'full of courage.'"
"After all, Liu Bei had been chased and beaten by Cao Cao a lot before, and now his little brother had created such a grand scene for Cao Cao's army. How could he not be happy? It is said that he held a banquet and drank with Zhao Zilong for a whole day!"
Liu Bei: Zilong! Brilliant! Keep the music playing, keep the dance going!!
"Liu Bei and Cao Cao fought several times. During one such battle, arrows rained down on Liu Bei. Fa Zheng stood resolutely in front of him, but Liu Bei said: 'I will go with Xiaozhi!'"
"Actually, I have to say that some of the actions between Liu Bei and his followers are quite touching; his personal charisma is truly amazing!!!"
The live stream comments section at this moment:
Zhang Fei: That's my elder brother, isn't he great!
Guan Yu: Agreed.jpg
Cao Cao, the boss: Who doesn't have a few underlings?
Yuan Shao of the Eastern Han Dynasty: Exactly! I have a whole bunch of talented strategists!
Cheng Yaojin of the Tang Dynasty: It's a pity he ran off to your former underlings, hahaha!
(Having been hit by an arrow) Yuan Shao of the Eastern Han Dynasty: You newcomer! Why do you have to bring up something you shouldn't say?!
……
In another timeline, Yuan Shao's face darkened upon seeing Cheng Yaojin's comment. Who is this guy?!
Back when Yuan Shao was making his way in the world, he was nowhere to be found!
That wretched Cao Mengde!! He's absolutely infuriating!
……
Meanwhile, Lin Ke, after drinking a glass of water, suddenly remembered that when she was a teenager, she especially liked the Shu Han state.
Thinking of the ending of the Three Kingdoms period, with a sigh, he said again, "The outcome of the battle between Cao Cao and Liu Bei has already become clear."
"Liu Bei occupied the high ground, and Cao Cao's troops continued to attack upwards, resulting in continuous casualties. As a result, the supplies and provisions behind him could not keep up."
"But both Cao Cao and Liu Bei had provisions and supplies. However, Liu Bei had Zhuge Liang to keep the rear secure. Before long, Cao Cao's army began to see desertions."
"Therefore, Cao Cao, deeply aware that the situation was hopeless, prepared to withdraw his troops. As a result, Hanzhong fell to Liu Bei. However, Liu Bei's journey from starting his career to the Battle of Hanzhong was not easy."
"After all, more than ten years have passed since Prime Minister Zhuge Liang made plans for Liu Bei, and he himself is almost at the end of his life."
