"Yes, yes, the last general knows, and the last general will bring His Majesty's words."
Zhao Yan was surprised and delighted, and kowtowed again and again.
The potter glanced at Wei Chigong.
Wei Chigong stepped forward, grabbed the long sword on the ground, slashed hard, cut off Cao Ang's head, and threw it to Zhao Yan.
The bloody human head suddenly fell into his arms, Zhao Yan was startled, rolled the human head to the ground in a panic, and hurriedly picked it up again, trembling in his arms, not even daring to take a breath.
"The heads have been obtained, why don't you get out of here, do you want to wait for me to take back my life?"
The potter shouted in a deep voice.
Zhao Yan was so frightened that his liver was about to break, how dare he hesitate any longer, and hurriedly hugged Cao Ang's head, and escaped from the big tent with a crawl.
The potter then flicked his hand again, and dragged Cao Ang's bloody corpse out left and right.
The imperial tent returned to calm, and the bloody atmosphere only then sank away.
The potter drank a glass of good wine, looked at Liu Ji next to him with a smile, and exclaimed: "Your plan to kill two birds with one stone, I have to say, it is indeed a clever plan." ” Liu Ji stroked his beard lightly and smiled without saying a word.
Wei Chigong was confused, touched his head and said: "Your Majesty, killing Cao Ang is indeed a relief, but what kind of plan is it to kill two birds with one stone, why don't I understand." ” "Stupid, can't you understand this" Luo Cheng scolded him with a smile, "Cao Cao saw Cao Ang's head before the decisive battle, and his spirit must have suffered a heavy blow, whether he was angry or in pain, it would affect his judgment, which is of course beneficial to us." ” The potter nodded slightly, appreciating Luo Cheng and having some insight, it seems that he has grown a lot in terms of resourcefulness during this time.
"Then this is just a bird, what about the other one" Yu Chigong was still confused.
Luo Cheng said again: "That Ma Yunlu is Ma Chao's sister, now Ma Yunlu killed Cao Cao's son, Cao Cao can not be angry with Ma Chao, Ma Chao is not panicked and uneasy, when the time comes, their monarchs and ministers are suspicious, and they are detached, isn't this the second bird." ” "It's these two birds."
Yu Chigong suddenly realized and gave Liu Ji a thumbs up, "I said Liu stammered, I bah, Liu Banxian, your plan of killing two birds with one stone is really poisonous, powerful, powerful."
Liu Ji could only shake his head and smile bitterly, and was ridiculed by Wei Chigong, who couldn't figure out whether it was praise or loss.
After smiling bitterly, Liu Ji bowed his hand to the potter: "Your Majesty, although this plan to kill two birds with one stone is successful, but our army has come from afar, the soldiers are tired, and the enemy army is waiting for work. ” In the imperial tent, all the generals fell silent again, looking at each other, and there was a little worry in their eyes.
They all knew very well that their troops had pursued for thousands of miles, crossed the Gobi for hundreds of miles, and suffered from marching and lack of water, and the soldiers had reached the extreme of exhaustion mentally and physically.
On the other hand, the Qin army, with its back to Dunhuang, has been resting for a long time, waiting for work, and is afraid that its physical strength and spirit will be better than its own army.
In this case, even if Liu Ji can kill two birds with one stone, the effect is not enough to reverse the unfavorable situation, and the outcome of this decisive battle is really difficult to say.
"Don't worry, I have a plan to break the enemy."
The potter was not afraid at all, and his words were full of confidence.
The generals on the left and right were all suspicious and curious, and even Liu Ji had a strange look, and he couldn't guess what other tricks they could make in the world in this situation.
Just when everyone was speculating, the potter had already flicked his hand and ordered proudly: "Tomorrow's battle is related to the battle to destroy Qin, and it can end perfectly, so you can go and comfort the soldiers, get ready, and tomorrow I will fight the last battle with that Cao Cao."
Although the generals still had doubts in their hearts, they were also infected by the self-confidence of the potters, and they took orders and retreated.
When everyone dispersed, the potter walked to the tent, looking at the sunset over the Gobi in the west, and in the eyes of the eagles, there was a fierce killing machine.
On the west side of the Gobi, the Qin army camp.
More than 14,000 Qin soldiers were all camped here, including Yongzhou soldiers, Longxi soldiers, Liangzhou soldiers, Qiang soldiers, and even hundreds of soldiers from the Western Regions who settled in Dunhuang.
These people are all the troops that Cao Cao can mobilize, and he has no way to retreat, but to fight to the death with the potters on the edge of the Gobi Desert.
In the Imperial Tent.
Cao Cao sat on top with a serious expression, and all the generals in front of the tent were nervous, listening to Liu Ye's latest information.
"According to my latest information, the 15,000 soldiers and horses of the pottery thieves, mainly light cavalry, have now been encamped fifteen miles away, and it is estimated that they will be able to get out of the Gobi and confront our army head-on in the afternoon of tomorrow."
"According to the observation of the scouts, the Wei army has suffered a lot in the Gobi Desert, and its physical strength and energy have been greatly consumed, and it should be the end of the crossbow."
Listening to Liu Ye's report, Cao Cao nodded slightly, and a trace of hope gradually ignited in his solemn expression.
In front of the tent, Xiahou Yuan, Ma Chao and other generals, one by one, their tense nerves also slowed down slightly, as if they saw the hope of turning defeat into victory.
After reading the information, Jiang Wei came out of the queue and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, as the minister expected, the pottery thief has pursued so far, and the physical strength of the soldiers and horses has been extremely exhausted, but our army is waiting for work, full of physical strength and spirit, and tomorrow's decisive battle will definitely break the pottery thief." ” Fa Zheng also nodded again and again, and echoed: "Boyo is reasonable, the pottery thief is too confident, regardless of the fatigue of the soldiers, he has reached the end of the strong crossbow, and he did not carry the rainstorm crossbow and other strange weapons, this battle, our army will win."
In the big tent, the generals were full of fighting spirit, and for a time their blood was boiling and their confidence was increased.
Cao Cao laughed and looked at Jiang Wei approvingly, "Boyo, you are really a blessed star given to me by God, if this battle is successful, then you are the first hero of my Great Qin Recovery." ” After receiving such praise from Cao Cao, Jiang Wei's young face flowed a little proudly, but he didn't dare to be too self-assured, and arched his hand: "The minister is just a little trick, if this battle is won, it is because Your Majesty is the destiny of heaven." ” Cao Cao laughed, and his laughter was full of self-confidence.
Just when the atmosphere was relaxed and warm, the royal guards outside the tent hurriedly came to report, saying that Zhao Yan, who had been captured in the Battle of Jieting, had actually returned.
Cao Cao was stunned, but he didn't think much about it, so he asked Zhao Yan to enter the account.
After a while, Zhao Yan held a burden in his hand, walked into the big tent in shame, and fell down in front of Cao Cao, crying: "Sinner Zhao Yan, please see Your Majesty." ” Seeing Zhao Yan, Cao Cao couldn't help but think of Xiahoudun's death, and he was angry in his heart, but when the country was broken and the courtiers under his rule looked forward to the wind and descended to Wei, Zhao Yan was able to return, which made Cao Cao still a little relieved, and suppressed his anger.
"Zhao Yan, how did you escape," Cao Cao interrogated.
"Your Majesty, the minister didn't escape, it was the pottery thief who took the initiative to let the minister return, and asked the minister to bring a message to Your Majesty."
Zhao Yan didn't dare to lie and replied truthfully.
With words Cao Cao's face suddenly became suspicious, and all the ministers on the left and right were also suspicious.

Cao Cao asked in a deep voice: "What did the pottery thief tell you to bring to me, it has come to this point, that kid still wants me to surrender him." ” "Not really."
Zhao Yan shook his head and said, "The pottery thief asked the minister to tell His Majesty that tomorrow's battle, Your Majesty will end up like His Royal Highness the Prince." ” The fate of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Cao Cao's body shook slightly, and suddenly he had a bad premonition, and asked urgently: "What's wrong with Ang'er, what's wrong with the pottery thief?"
"His Royal Highness the Prince, he" Zhao Yan wanted to speak several times and stopped, and did not dare to speak.
Cao Cao became angry, and scolded him: "What's wrong with Ang'er, Hugh has to swallow and spit again, say it quickly" Zhao Yan knew that he couldn't hide it no matter what, and he always had to explain the truth, so he had to take a light breath, silently untie the burden, hold it with trembling hands, and present the things in front of Cao Cao's eyes.
It was a bloody human head.
It's Cao Ang's head In an instant, Cao Cao's whole person froze there, and his expression froze in a moment of horror and grief.
The courtiers left and right, Xiahou Yuan, Ma Chao and others, were all in an uproar, and they all fell into shock.
Cao Cao and the potters were mortal enemies, and he also knew very well how cruel the potter's style was to the enemy, and how many princes died under the butcher's knife of the potter.
Therefore, when Cao Ang was captured, Cao Cao was already mentally prepared, and maybe he would receive the bad news that Cao Ang had been killed.
Cao Cao never expected that the Tao Chamber of Commerce would kill Cao Ang before the final battle, and also send the head to him.
At this moment, Cao Cao's heart was as if it had been cut by thousands of knives, the pain was heartbreaking, and the endless anger was raging, almost bursting his chest.
"Pottery thief pottery thief" Cao Cao clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, almost biting out blood, and the green tendons on his face were so convulsed that they almost burst out.
But he knew that the potter did this on purpose to stimulate him, and it was naturally best to make him angry to death on the spot, even if he was not angry, he was so angry that he acted out of anger and messed up the rules.
After taking a few deep breaths and forcibly suppressing the angry blood that was about to spurt, Cao Cao gritted his teeth and said slowly: "How did Ang'er die?"
"The crown prince, the crown prince, was killed by Ma Yunlu."
Zhao Yan said in a trembling voice.
As soon as these words came out, Cao Cao's face immediately changed, and all the ministers of the Qin State changed their colors, and their eyes shot at Ma Chao in unison.
Ma Chao was even more shocked and changed color, and hurriedly yelled at Zhao Yan: "You are talking nonsense, how could my little sister kill the prince, you are talking nonsense" Zhao Yan had no choice but to tell in detail how the potter wanted to choose one of them to kill one of them, how to make him compete with each other to fight for life and death, and how Cao Ang was killed by Ma Yunlu.
At the end, Zhao Yan said with a straight face: "What the minister said is true, the minister dares to worry about the head, and there is no lie, please let Your Majesty know it." ” Zhao Yan is Cao Cao's close courtier, and he has vouched for it, so there is no reason to doubt it.
What's more, Cao Cao also knows the ruthlessness of the potter's methods, and he is not inferior to himself in the slightest, and it is entirely possible to do such a thing.
Cao Cao slowly raised his head and looked at Ma Chao with a sad gaze, clearly revealing a trace of resentment.
The rest of Xu Chu and other civil and military officers also looked at Ma Chao, with both complaints and sighs in their eyes.
Xiahou Yuan was even more furious, and a few steps of the general grabbed Ma Chao, and roared angrily: "Okay, you Ma Chao, how can Your Majesty treat your Ma family badly, your sister dares to be ungrateful and kill the prince, your Ma family can't rebel" isjgy:
