More than a thousand war horses were galloping on the night ground, and the sound of hooves was like thunder, which also hit everyone's hearts.
Everyone lay on the horse's back, narrowing the area in the wind, and galloped on the horse.
In the queue, the shouts of the team leader and the long-term sounded from time to time, keep up, keep up;
Nearby, there are the markings that the scouts tied down, and the white paint is particularly obvious in the darkness.
And in the distance, there was a little red light, which seemed to be hanging in the horizon.
That's Yuyang.
In order to further lead to the insects hidden in the dark, of course, we have to do the whole show. If the army is closer to Yuyang, will these guys dare to emerge?
But being far away has one disadvantage, it takes longer to rush back.
Cao Chun rushed to the front without a doubt. He shrank his body into a small group as he tried his best, pressed his horse tightly on the back, urging the horse forward. Behind him, there were almost all light cavalrymen, who were wearing leather armor and carrying the most basic equipment, and rushed forward.
Cao Chun is frustrated
He had fought with Zhao Yun.
Before, I thought that Zhao Yun was just a higher than the white general Xiahou Yuan, so he could still fight, but I don’t know why, nor when it started, Cao Chun suddenly felt that he didn’t have much confidence anymore.
Cao Chun needs this kind of confidence, just like the Cao army needs a war horse, so Cao Chun is somewhat useless to do anything, after all, everything focuses on victory.
Big victory or small victory is all victory. If you don’t beat a tiger or leopard, then catching two rabbits or even hugging some insects can be considered a victory.
This time, the failure of Xiahou Shang's retreat camp can be said to be the failure of Xiahou Shang, but it can also be regarded as the failure of Cao Chun's rule in Youzhou. Cao Chun did not regard himself as a Youzhou native, and the Youzhou natives naturally would not regard Cao Chun as their own person. With mutual suspicion and exploitation, it is very difficult to maintain such a long time without conflicts.
Just like some company bosses in later generations would not regard employees as human beings, then those employees would naturally not do their best to this company. Do you say that such company bosses do not know how to motivate employees, do not know how to have corporate culture, do not know how to unite, and do not know how to do some superficial articles?
Understand.
All understand.
But to do it, that's two different things.
The wind blew on Cao Chun's face, and his body was like a knife cutting it.
Cao Chun could not know Cao Cao's current predicament. If you want to break the deadlock, you must first have a cavalry that will fight against the General of the Cavalry!
If you want to be able to fight Fei Qian, you must be able to deal with Zhao Yun, a partial army?
Is this the truth?
At least Cao Chun must first ensure that his strength here can compete with Zhao Yun. Only Cao Cao in the rear can be stable, so do you have time to do superficial work?
Most of the Cao family and the generals of the Xiahou family have not studied military science seriously. They rely more on instinct and some inheritance in the family, plus their own practical experience. Even the military calligraphy written by Cao Cao was in a very late stage. Maybe Cao Cao thought that he had to leave something for the second and third generations of the Xiahou family in the Cao family before he could write it.
So Cao Chun knows how to distinguish between what is an urgent matter, what is a necessary matter, what is an urgent matter or not, and what is a necessary or not? People in later generations may not be able to distinguish it.
What Cao Chun could be clear at the moment was that he felt that this attack did not come from outside, but from inside.
No matter what, he will catch the attacker who poked the chrysanthemum!
Although it was not him who was stabbed, and although it was Xiahou Shang's problem, Cao Chun was the leader after all, and he could not be said to have no responsibility at all.
This time, it was also another chance for Cao Chun to give Xiahou Shang. If Xiahou Shang really couldn't do it, then it would be better to report it and send it back. Otherwise, Cao Chun felt that sooner or later, he would be dragged to death by Xiahou Shang.
After all, what we have to face now is Zhao Yun, who is the cavalry, and there is no need to be any negligence.
Speed up;
Cao Chun shouted, he had tried his best to shout, but his voice quickly dissipated in the wind
(‵′)
The other side.
Outside Yuyang City, the civil servants' labor camp.
A huge, wild voice erupted in the camp of the civil servants.
The soldiers on duty on the sentry tower still fulfilled their responsibilities, pulling their bows and shooting arrows while shouting: Enemy attack! Enemy attack;
But it was useless. The civilians and laborers who heard the warning voice did not cherish the short time of the soldiers, but ran around indiscriminately, just like a panicked sheep in the sheep pen. As long as they were not bitten by a wolf, it would be fine. I forgot that I still have horns. When I usually fight for spouses with the same sex, my skull can crack
In the camp, the civil servants and servants howled and ran around in chaos. Some soldiers responsible for guards and supervisors jumped out, trying to order these headless flies, but they basically had no effect.
Logically speaking, if you suffer a loss, you will have to increase your wisdom.
But for a person, this principle may be valid, but for a group of people and a large group of people, once the base is increased, only the shortest board will work. Not to mention that these civilians have not trained anything at all, and they are not very elite at all. When they encounter an attack again, they still behave so badly.
In the central army, Cao Shang looked at these headless and mindless civil servants and servants, and suddenly a strange feeling appeared in his heart, as if he was also one of these civil servants and servants.
He is bait, he is the piece of meat placed on the chopping board, attracting these people to bite.
Now these people are coming, but Cao Shang is not excited at all.
The villages of the people are very loose.
The cavalry that rushed forward opened the scattered deer fort without saying a word. The cavalry following behind rushed into the camp from the passageway. The cavalry on the edge of the passageway were also anxious and kept coaxing the villagers there. Then, not only ignited some flammable objects in the camp, but also shot the guards down and fell straight from the village sentry tower.
More wood from the village walls was pulled down.
More horse thieves rushed in.
These woods with scattered scattered when they set up a village and did not enter the ground. Just pull them a little, and they would fall down. Infantrymen could not dominate without forming formations without forming formations, and these scattered civilians did not know how to form formations at all. In a panic, even a few horse thieves rushed into the camp, and they had no idea of resisting. They ran away and screamed.
These cavalry dressed in Hu cavalry had completely entered the camp. Under the impact of the war horses, they were invincible. Some even picked up the torches landing on the ground, lit tents and grocery vehicles, creating greater chaos.
Cao Shang shouted and asked his subordinates to move closer to each other.
With the array, there will naturally be less panic. In addition, there are weapons in your hands and armor on your body. Even when facing the Hu cavalry, the soldiers Cao Shang brought will not be too outrageously afraid of the formation.
The only shame is that there is no chariot array for defense, so people can only resist.
Because once a chariot formation is formed, these Hu cavalry may not fight hard. Once they run around the circle, Xiahou Shang will not be able to cover these guys by then!
Cao Shang raised a spear and shouted: "Hold the horse! Get the gun;
The soldiers gradually surrounded them and formed a circular formation.
On the battlefield, the most feared thing about being a soldier is that there is no organization or command.
In the chaos, watching the formation of the circular array here, some soldiers responsible for the guard and supervisors in front fled here, and gradually stopped and joined the circular array. There were weapons outside, no weapons and bows and arrows inside. One shoulder was leaning against the other, arranged in dense layers between each other, and the spear blades were highlighted like a hedgehog, gradually stabilizing.
Cao Shang shouted loudly, his body must be stable, and his spear should be forward! Don’t pierce it out, just wait until they hit it! You must be steady, keep it steady;
Xiahou Shang, above the city, saw the light of the middle formation in the camp, gradually formed the formation and stabilized. He couldn't help but slapped it. It's OK, this kid is quite capable! Ah hahaha;
Of course, Xiahou Shang was even happier that his plan was successful!
Hurry, go and send orders, let the gynec tribe open and let the soldiers encircle them; Xiahou Shang shouted excitedly, don’t let those bastards run away;
In fact, opening the city gate to the south is faster and the distance is shorter, but the problem is that Xiahou Shang is afraid of being rushed in by the other party when he opens the city gate. After all, Xiahou Shang himself is not good enough. He is not strong enough, so he can only rely on the soldiers to push him.
When Xiahou Shang was young, he had the dream of killing one person with ten steps and not leaving a thousand miles away, but he was soon defeated by the two monsters of wine and meat in reality. Then he realized that it was so fragrant that it was so fragrant. Anyway, if you just move your mouth and let others do things, wouldn’t it be nice?
Shortly after Xiahou Shang sent the soldiers in the city, in a courtyard in the city, the gate suddenly opened wide, and some people rushed out of the yard, and there were a mess of hissings and shouting, and suddenly it surged out!
The conflict between the local wealthy rich and the Cao family group has actually reached a very serious level.
Although he talks about benevolence and righteousness, in fact, the root of most contradictions is interests.
Of course, Youzhou is no exception. Cutting off people's money is like killing parents. If a family is cut off, what will the wealth of several families be for the money?
The so-called "living the mountains and the sea" by the sea, and of course you can eat the border by relying on the border. Youzhou is actually somewhat similar to Longyou. The wealth at the border is of course the trade of war horses.
In Yuyang, there is salt and iron. Then use salt and iron and other daily tools to replace furs with Hu people and war horses. This has always been the most common and most important trade model in Youzhou. Otherwise, where would Gongsun Zan's three thousand white horses come from? Is it true that Gongsun Zan can dye it, and even a flower horse can dye it white?
Similarly, secretly getting some high-priced war horses from the Cavalry is also an important profit project.
It's like a smuggling car from later generations.
Then Cao Chun felt that it was not possible. He had to regulate the market and ban these black markets.
In history, there were not many conflicts between Youzhou and Cao Cao's forces, because at that time, the more noisy Wuhuan people in the northern part of Youzhou were pushed down by Cao Cao and rubbed on the ground. The two kings of Xianbei were not dead yet. They were afraid of each other and wanted to settle in first and had no time to compete with Cao Cao, so Youzhou was relatively stable in history.
But with Fei Qian, the stick, the mixing was a little different.
First of all, the Xianbei was gone, the Wuhuan was gone, and the Dingling people were disabled. The Hu people who could have done business with Youzhou suddenly had fewer Hu people, but this was not the point, because Hu people themselves could not trade a large number of cattle, horses and sheep, and Youzhou itself could not eat many war horses, so this impact only reduced the originally sufficient supply of goods, and could make up for the reduction of profits by raising prices.
Then, this made Cao Chun unable to stand it, and it was also the root cause of the current conflict that Youzhou evolved into.
Zhao Yun's Northern Region Protectorate threats to the Cao family in Youzhou are increasing, and if they want to compete, war horses are indispensable. However, the rising prices make Cao Chun unable to afford them, and Cao Cao also has no spare money to support Youzhou.
What should I do if there is an urgent need on one hand and a high price on the other?
Do it yourself.
Just like that kind of advertisement, I went to the middleman and made the difference by myself.
Then what?
How can the middlemen not be in a hurry? Don’t be scammed? You have to do it even if you steal or become a spy, otherwise the whole family will be forced to drink the northwest wind?
Therefore, under the influence of the news of the Sima family in Hanoi's escape, on the one hand, they were afraid, and on the other hand, they might not have the intention of jumping over the wall. When they heard that there was a war in the north, Cao Chun led his troops to the north. The Xiahou Shang left behind naturally was not as powerful as Cao Chun's force, and he did not look much wise. If you don't seize the opportunity to make trouble, are you still waiting for Cao Chun to come back?
If you want to negotiate, you must be qualified to sit at the negotiating table.
What?
Is this a rebellion?
Rebellion is rebellion, what's the big deal?
In history, Cao Wei rebelled ten times during Cao Cao's reign, Cao Pi five times, and Cao's family also rebelled continuously until Cao Huan fell to the ground with the last blow.
If you don’t rebel, how can you be ordered to be safe?
Cao Chun led the main force, pretending that Hu people went south and moved north. On the one hand, he didn't leave, and felt that these guys inside did not dare to move. On the other hand, Cao Chun was not very relieved. What if he caught insects inside and came to the door if the outside really came to him?
It’s better to really wander around and investigate with force.
But Cao Chun didn't expect that Xiahou Shang would be so bad.
Cao Chun had already considered Xiahou Shang lowly and did not dare to let Xiahou Shang go to the front line, so he let him stay behind, but he still got into trouble. Of course, the problem of the first rear camp can be said to be Xiahou Shang's carelessness, but this time in Yuyang City, it was simply Xiahou Shang himself provoked.
The first taboo that Xiahou Shang violated was that he divided his troops.
The division of troops is not a big problem. The problem is that after the division of troops, he did not leave any backup. Generals with military experience know that it is important to keep a reserve team, and sometimes it can even determine the final victory or defeat of a battle.
After these people rushed out of the city, Xiahou Shang was suddenly confused. Why are there still in the city?
He really didn't expect that there would be one in the city, because there were no Hu people in the city before, and they all had household registrations, so Xiahou Shang naturally thought that they were all safe. Then the Hu horse-riding thieves attacking outside the city did not go out of the city, so Xiahou Shang was panicked when facing the stabbing of his chrysanthemum.
The people in the city have clear goals, just to disrupt and then make profits in the chaos. Therefore, these guys not only resounded throughout the city, but also threw the torches while running.
At that time, even if Cao's investigation is investigated later, he can shirk it to the spy. After all, everyone in the city is forced out by fire. Who knows who did it?
There were more and more people in the city, setting fires, putting fires, pretending to putting fires, and doing something bad at the same time, and it was a mess.
General! General! Submit orders quickly;
Xiahou Shang was stunned for a moment, yes, yes! Hear the order, let all those people come back! Come back;
Come back? What should I do if anyone outside the city?
First, calm the chaos in the city! Go and send the order; Xiahou Shang is still in charge of Hu Qi outside the city, his life is important! Don’t look at Xiahou Shang shouting that life and death are destined to be alive, and lying flat is the most fragrant, but when he really encounters something, his life is still the most precious, and it’s not enough to lose a hair!
The soldiers had no choice but to run to pass the order.
The sound of metal and iron sounded interlaced. The Cao soldiers who had just rushed to the camp outside the city stopped, stopped in confusion, looked at each other, suspected that they had heard it wrong.
(*??Д??*)
Zu Qilang knew something was wrong with the sound of gold knocking around, and at the same time he hesitated.
The original plan was that the people in the city would not participate in the action!
All the good people in the city!
What exactly caused chaos in the city?
If Zu Qilang is gray, half black and half white, then most people in the city are considered white, responsible for sales and procurement, as well as resettlement of family members, etc. However, whether it is black, white, or gray, for Zu Qilang and others, they all belong to the same family and are all family!
This is almost the mark engraved in the bones of Zu Qilang and others!
Take care of your family and help your family. If your family is in trouble, you must not stand idly by.
So the people in the city knew that outside the city was a trap, so they took action. Zu Qiro outside the city found something was wrong and did not just think about himself.
Master Qi! What to do?
According to the plan, the soldiers in the city moved and had to withdraw immediately in order to avoid being surrounded. However, the soldiers in the city have returned and may threaten the people in the city.
The dark clouds were rolling. I don’t know if it was stimulated by the fire or had accumulated to the limit. Some snowflakes and ice slags gradually floated down in the air. When the flames around the camp were smoked, they turned into fine rain.
Zu Qiro raised his head, his face changed, it was broken! It was raining and snowing;
If the rain and snow fall, the fire will not last long. Without the assistance of the fire, Cao's camp will naturally not be in chaos for a long time!
Once Cao's camp is no longer in chaos, then the unlucky one will be Zu Qilang and the others!
The same is true in the city. It seems that the fire will be suppressed soon!
Suddenly, Zu Qiro seemed to sense something, turned his head and looked into the depths of the darkness. It seemed that a dull voice roared in the shadows.
