Chapter 403

"What!?"

"The lord wants to withdraw toward Qingzhou?"

Zang Ba asked suspiciously.

"Yes, General Xuangao, please hurry and order your soldiers to prepare for the withdrawal." (Zang Ba's courtesy name is Xuangao)

Cao Ren informed Zang Ba of this news listlessly.

For Zang Ba.

The news that Cao Cao wanted to withdraw toward Qingzhou was like a bolt from the blue, making him feel shocked!

Not long ago, the reason Zang Ba chose to join Cao Cao's camp.

The biggest reason was actually to be able to continue to occupy a region and continue to be the local emperor of northern Xuzhou.

But now.

Not only was Xuzhou gone, but even the two provinces of Yanzhou and Yuzhou were also lost.

Zang Ba suddenly realized that his decision to join Cao Cao's camp was truly damn pit-falling!

But he was already a grasshopper on the same boat as Cao Cao, so how could there be an option to easily get off the boat?

Helpless.

Zang Ba had to gather his Taishan bandit brothers and order them to follow the Cao army and withdraw to Qingzhou together.

However.

What they didn't know was.

On the main road that must be taken to Qingzhou.

Lu Bu and Zhao Yun, those two old foxes, had already led the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry and the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, ready to strike.

……

Five days later

Border between Qing and Xu provinces

Cao Cao led twelve thousand exhausted Cao troops and migrated to this place.

But at this moment, he did not dare to relax his vigilance at all.

As everyone knows, Gu Yi's use of troops is elusive.

If Gu Yi led his army to pursue them, Cao Cao really didn't know how to deal with it.

Fortunately.
