When the moon is dark and the wind is high, people set fire to kill people.
Just like Changshe finally ushered in the flame of fate after waiting for so many years, Wuchao seemed to be doing the same tonight, welcoming the irresistible fate that his name had when he came to this world.
.
Please forgive someone's unscrupulous talk, but in fact no one really believes every word he said above.
Cao Cao was a super action man. Once he made up his mind, he would go all out without hesitation. He left Cao Hong and Liu Ye, Man Chong and Xu You to guard the Chinese army's tent and protect the emperor Liu Xie.
Cao Ren led Cao Cao's nephew, Cao Zheng, and Cao Anmin, the son of his younger brother Cao De. The black-skinned dwarf no longer had the chance to compete with Zhang Xiu, and the two little guys naturally did not have the tragic experience of dying for their country, so now
Cao Angyi
As the eldest son, he was supervising the country in Xudu, while Cao Zheng followed him to the front line and participated in this extremely important battle for Cao Cao's army. Xia Houyuan led Shi Huan, and the two armies ambush around Cao Cao's army camp.
Both sides are prepared for emergencies.
After that, Li Dian and Wang Kai were the vanguard, Zhu Ling and Lu Zhao were the rearguard, and Cao Cao himself commanded the tiger and leopard cavalry in the middle army, a total of 5,000 people, dressed in Yuan Jun's uniforms and under the banner of Yuan Jun, and all the soldiers carried
With firewood and kerosene bought at a high price from Bingzhou, people held their heads and horses wrapped their hooves, and headed straight for Wuchao at dusk.
Wuchao is located on the north bank of Wuchaoze, and the main battlefield of Guandu is in a large area south of Wuchaoze. In other words, if you want to get there, you have to pass through Yuan Shaojun's camp anyway - no matter how daring Cao Cao is,
It is impossible to learn from Yuan Shaojun’s
Passing through the main camp, after all, it is definitely not daring, but seeking death. Even if Yuan Shaojun will also have a large-scale mobilization of troops tonight, this does not mean that Yuan Shao will be stupid enough to leave no defense at all.
The strength of the Chinese army camp.
Unless he himself has planned to change the location of his Chinese military tent, or he has laid out a big situation waiting for Cao Cao to jump.
Even if you don't look at Cao Cao, even if you want to sneak attack others, there are still a large number of elite soldiers and generals deployed in front of your house.
The former is completely impossible for Yuan Shaojun, who has been at a stalemate for so long. Unless there is a major change in the war, it is obviously impossible for Yuan Shao to move the location of the Chinese military tent that he has determined to be the best choice. As for the latter possibility, anyway
Cao Cao doesn't plan to go there, so Cao Cao really doesn't care what the Zhongjun tent looks like.
Anyway, even when marching and fighting, there is an air of luxury in this place. Cao Cao, who advocates frugality, said that he has no interest at all. Even if he is interested, he plans to throw away those valuable decorations to the greedy Bingzhou businessmen after the war.
.
They are really a group of businessmen who eat people without spitting out their bones. Although their existence made it a lot easier for Xun Yu to raise food and supplies, energy is conserved, and the work of raising supplies became easier, but raising troops
The work of the capital has become more arduous.
Xun Yu Wenruo's children's shoes can't lift his spirits.
Probably because of Yuan Shaojun's actions tonight, although there were soldiers on duty in every camp, and most of them would seriously question the "Yuan Shaojun" who passed by, they were all slapped with "Jiang Qi" by the calm and composed Cao Caojun.
Even when there was a need to respond to the secret code, Xu You responded well because of the information provided by Xu You.
Everything went smoothly.
According to Cao Cao's estimation, it wouldn't take too long for them to reach the destination of this operation, Wuchao, where Yuan's army was stationing grain.
Although it is a pity to stock up on the materials in Aocang, in order to defeat such a powerful enemy as Yuan Shao, some losses are inevitable, and just think of the merchants who made Cao Cao grit his teeth but had little choice but to feel heartbroken.
Cao Cao suddenly felt that he had the urge to burn down the entire Aocang with a fire.
Why are there suddenly more kerosene and torches in my hands? It’s because I love deeply.
Until Cao Cao came to Yuan Shao's grain garrison in Wuchao, he encountered no problems. He seemed worthy of being one of the four pillars of Hebei. Although the soldiers on duty had a lot of contempt for "Jiang Qi's troops"
Although they had the courage to do anything to them, even the soldiers on duty at Wuchaoyuan Gate did not ask to check their transfer orders or tiger talismans.
Maybe it's because Chunyu Qiong really neglected guarding, or maybe it's because the relationship between Chunyu Qiong and Jiang Qi is absolutely trustworthy.
Now that we have arrived here, there is no need to continue pretending. Cao Cao immediately ordered the soldiers to do their best. As long as more food can be ignited - spread kerosene if there is it, and pile firewood if there is none.
All in all, at this moment, the entire raiding force led by Cao Cao transformed into a large army of warriors.
Although seriously speaking, these guys who hold up the torches basically have families at home, and what they want to burn is not those bitch men and women, but the seeds born from the union of xx and ○○.
The most important thing is that they are not wearing the uniforms of my big fff group (is this the most important thing)!
Ahem, just ignore the narration and so on. In short, these general methods are noisy and move forward, and the place you pass is a sea of fire.
It has to be said that Xu You's evaluation of Chunyu Qiong is really not wrong at all. This former one of the eight captains of Xiyuan, who should theoretically be regarded as a military attache, seems to have never regarded himself as a military general, leading troops.
The purpose of going to war was just to consolidate one's own power, and to experience the feeling of being a civilian leader like the sage Zhang Huan, but it was just a joke.
In addition, I am now at the rear of the battlefield, and the long night is unbearably lonely. I haven't collected a kabuki or anything from other places. I just have a few drinks (?), which can be regarded as something worthy of military discipline.
It's really a shame that a noble scholar can't invite Yue to drink.
Even though he now has a heavy responsibility, perhaps Chunyu Qiong has never taken this so-called "heavy responsibility" to heart.
Let me tell you a joke: Cao Cao crossed his many forts and ran here to play a surprise attack.
In her sleep, Chunyu Qiong might have been aroused by this extremely funny joke and smiled with satisfaction.
But in the haziness, Chunyu Qiong felt that there were always noisy sounds echoing in his ears, as if the soldiers were blowing up the camp collectively, and the entire Wuchao fell into madness, and even even
The temperature in the air is brought with it
It feels a bit hot, and it's obviously already autumn. The temperature at night makes people have to change into a thicker quilt, but tonight it seems to be back to the hot summer, and the irritating heat is even if I want to sleep.
Stability has become a luxury.
In the end, he couldn't resist this terrible feeling. Chun Yuqiong got up from the bed while cursing, and raised his sleepy eyes to look around. He instinctively felt that something was wrong with the situation. But his brain, which was numbed by alcohol, could not do anything at all.
To react immediately, no, it can even be said that his brain processor is still restarting.
And his soldiers obviously knew this, so even if they had realized that there was an enemy invasion, and the entire Wuchao camp was in chaos, and they urgently needed someone with enough weight to take charge of the situation, they still had no choice.
He ran to wake up the nominal general of Wuchao, but instead notified the generals such as Sui Yuanjin and Zhao Rui who were also in Wuchao, placing their hopes on those generals. And they themselves firmly guarded Chun Yuqiong's
The tent protects the general.
As for whether the few soldiers sent to report the news would be intercepted and killed by the enemy on the way, or whether they would simply take advantage of the chaos and escape, that was beyond their control. Anyway, these actions were just a matter of doing their best and obeying fate.
However, even so, it was of no use. In other words, their actions of defending the general's camp to the death made more and more Cao Cao's soldiers notice the abnormal situation here, because their nervous and desperate attitude was simply
It's like telling everyone, "There is a big fish here~ Come here quickly~ First come, first served, dear."
However, it cannot be said that this approach has no benefits at all. At least a torch accidentally thrown into the camp gave Chunyu Qiong, who was restarting after his IQ was offline, a flash of inspiration. He actually ended the restart work early, but realized that he had ignored it.
Something very important - if it were a normal situation, although there would be some light outside, it would not be like it is now. Although it cannot be said to be like daylight, the light would be sufficient to at least deflect the sun.
Although Chun Yuqiong was still very cute (three seconds of silence for the word placed here) and thought about whether he drank too much and slept until the evening of the next day, the surroundings became more and more dangerous.
The heat of people finally summoned all his intelligence back to his brain. Only then did he realize that something terrible had happened to Wuchao.
However, this is still of no use.
When he had no time to put on the armor - even if he wanted to put it on, with his current vain steps and weak body, he couldn't put on such a complicated and heavy thing. Chunyu Qiong rushed out of his tent in a panic, and met him face to face.
They saw Cao Zhen and his men leading Cao Cao's bodyguard, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, who were besieging this place.
Although Cao Zhen didn't know who Chunyu Qiong was, after all, Chun Yuqiong looked slovenly and sleepy at this time. He looked more like a drunkard lying on the street than an established general, but this person was in another dimension.
became the second member of the Cao family in the history of
After all, the mainstay of the times, the general, was no ordinary person. At least he knew that the person who could escape from the camp that was desperately guarded by the enemy must have a good status. He should be an extremely important person no matter how you think about it.
So, Cao Zhen clamped his horse's belly, and like lightning, the horse passed over the guards who were a little distracted by the appearance of his general, and rushed directly in front of Chun Yuqiong. With his arms relaxed, he captured Chun Yuqiong alive on the spot, and then used it again
With his extraordinary riding skills, before the guards, whose brains were short-circuited because the general was captured, could react, they returned to the heavy protection of their own troops.
Throwing Chunyu Qiong on the ground, Cao Zhen's own soldiers helped Cao Zhen tie Chunyu Qiong with tortoise shells and make them into rice dumplings... Well, although people in the city are better at playing, they really can't play such a difficult game when they are racing against time.
pattern.
The news of Chunyu Qiong's capture soon reached Cao Cao's ears, followed by the news that Sui Yuanjin, Zhao Rui and other generals guarding Wuchao had been killed. As a result, there was no large-scale attack in Wuchao.
The resisting troops, even if there are occasional sporadic resisting soldiers, are already insignificant to the overall situation.
It can be said that Cao Cao's army achieved a brilliant victory that night.
Although they themselves suffered a lot of battle losses. After all, although their sneak attack was successful because of Chun Yuqiong's stupidity, Yuan Jun's resistance still made Cao Cao, the enemy, have to stand in awe. It can be said that if Chun Yuqiong was not so strong,
Considering the incredible cooperation of his pig teammates, it would be quite difficult for Cao Cao to successfully implement this plan.
At the same time, you can also know how powerful a traitor is. After all, if Xu You had not provided very detailed information, Cao Cao would not have been able to lead his troops all the way here and accurately grasp the enemy's weak points.
Hit successfully.
"In this way, I hope Benchu will not be too sad and damage his health."
Cao Cao was not in a good mood at this time, although he would have to gather his soldiers to pursue the victory. But with the destruction of Wuchao, the main goal of the evening had been achieved, and the remaining battle was just to continue to expand the results and drum up victory.
Just chasing the poor bandits bravely.
"I wonder how many prisoners we can capture this time?"
Cao Cao has already begun to think about how to deal with Yuan Shaojun's soldiers - it is indeed better to capture more prisoners.
After all, Cao Cao at this time was not the black-skinned dwarf in the history of another dimension who had exhausted almost all the food and grass that could be raised in Guandu for a long time and was almost at the end of his rope, so even if he faced that number of eighty or ninety thousand,
The black-skinned dwarf, who was captured by Yuan's army and had no food to feed them, could only wave his hand and was possessed by the soul of a certain Qin killing god.
The situation now is very different, so let alone 80,000 or 90,000 prisoners. Even if it is doubled, Cao Cao can afford it with gritted teeth. It is said that the Bingzhou Army has used practical actions to tell the whole Chinese people how valuable the prisoners are.
Important strategic resources can not only
In order to create a large amount of GDP, it can also promote the launch of various strategic projects. It is really a good thing that benefits the country and the people, and its achievements will benefit the future. I wonder how it is possible with Cao Cao's frugal character who is eager to fall into the eyes of money.
Don't study seriously.
"It's easy if you can't afford it. It's also a good choice to exchange some supplies with the people in Bingzhou. Well, this matter must be kept secret, otherwise if those greedy businessmen see the flaw, there won't be much that can be obtained
Highly skilled negotiator.”
As long as I mention those Bingzhou merchant Cao Cao who are good at using text traps and constantly holding high the law (trap), law (Mongolia), martial arts (abduction) (deception), I feel like my head is congested and I have a splitting headache. But if he knew all this
Everything is completely derived from a certain
Just Loli's words and deeds. Those Bingzhou merchants just used the old wisdom that happened to them on other people. I don't know what to think... Maybe they will shed tears in silence with Cao Ren. After all, a certain brother's younger brother is
So lost.
The most important thing is that even if the businessmen who discovered that they had been deceived wanted to regain their position through off-market moves, they were destined to suffer a dumb loss in the face of the Bingzhou Army, the gangster gang that had grown in size in the entire Bingshuo area.
The teeth sink into the stomach.
Although his thinking was a little divergent, even if he acted a little proud at this time and laughed three times to the sky to celebrate this hard-won victory, it would not be an exaggeration to think about it.
"General! We, we are surrounded!!!"
Unfortunately, before Cao Cao could sing loudly, oh no, he was smiling up at the sky and showing off his lung capacity, his personal guards escorted a soldier covered in blood with three arrows stuck in his back to Cao Cao's side.
A look of panic was written on his face.
"What's going on!"
"I, I am a personal follower of Lord Lu Zhao. Just now, the Lord General was chasing down a group of broken soldiers who were about to break out of the camp. But who would have thought that as soon as they left the gate, they would be met by Yuan Jun soldiers who came out of nowhere.
, and there are more and more, so the general asked me to come and tell the lord, 'The enemy's force is strong, please make a decision as soon as possible'!"
"How is the situation at General Lu's place?"
"It's very bad. There are more and more enemy troops. There are countless torches all over the field. But the general said, please don't worry, my lord. He will definitely persist until the last moment and fight for the lord's return."
Buy a little more time."
"...How magnificent, General Zihui! I, Cao Mengde, will never forget your kindness!"
After that, he ordered the generals to immediately gather their soldiers and prepare to break out. At the same time, he sent his most elite tiger and leopard cavalry soldiers who were good at reconnaissance to disperse in various directions to detect the situation in all directions.
Although Cao Cao's decision-making is not unreasonable, it can even be said that he was able to recover from the previous shock and make the correct decision in such a short period of time. Cao Cao is indeed a person who can move from one success to another, even if
The son of Crystal Wall can climb out of the pit and reach the pinnacle of life even after failure. This character alone is enough to surpass most people.
Looking back at the sea of fire around him, Cao Cao felt more or less relieved. After all, at least his biggest goal of this action was still achieved. Even if Yuan Shao really made dumplings in the end, as long as he could escape, then
this one
The battle is not too bad. Without the support of Wuchao's food and fodder, I believe that no matter how much Yuan Shaojun wants to attack, he will be at the end of his strength. As long as Aocang is burned again, then Yuan Shao will really have only
The path of retreat is an option.
Although Li Shushi's Bingzhou Army seems to have become the final winner of this battle between Yuan and Cao, the fact that the battle has progressed to this point is worthy of his previous efforts.
Although, no matter what, my heart is still full of regret and unwillingness.
And what Cao Cao couldn't let go of was why such a successful operation ended in such a way.
This is really puzzling. After all, if Xu You's surrender was a counter-intuitive plan by Director Yuan Shao, then using the entire Wuchao's food and grass as bait...
When did he, Yuan Benchu, be willing to spend so much money just for himself?
Should Cao Mengde feel extremely honored for this? (To be continued...)
