In January of the second year of Jian'an, before Xun You brought back the news from Jiangdong, Cao Cao encountered a bad thing...
Originally, because Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, Liu Biao of Jingzhou had made peace with Cao Cao. However, Cao Cao could not rest assured that Zhang Xiu was hanging at the back door of Yanzhou, so he garrisoned at Jishui to put pressure on Zhang Xiu.
Something happened on the road that gave Cao Cao a boost in reputation, that is, after Baitu, Cao Cao also began to impose military discipline, but Cao Cao did not dare to talk about his late father...
Otherwise, Cao Cao said, "Killing a person is like killing my father"? The scholars were shocked and he couldn't resist it, so he didn't say it, fearing that he would be complained to death - you have a dead father, and you are acting like that in Xuzhou... What?
Now that I think about it, everyone is your father? If you kill one father, you will kill thousands of fathers... Are you a perpetual motion machine?
So Cao Cao was very honest and just issued a military discipline that "those who step on the young seedlings will be killed" - it was early spring, farmers had just started farming, and the cultivated land could not withstand the tossing.
As a result, Cao Cao's own war horse lost control and broke into the farmland in a disgraceful manner. The scene was so embarrassing - the war horses trained by Cheng Ji would also lose control if they were not skilled enough. The lower the skill of training the war horses, the more skillful the cavalry.
The lower the city, the more likely this problem will occur!
But Cao Cao was also quick in his thinking. At that time, he imitated Zhao Xiangzi's deed of allowing Yu Rang to "strike his clothes with a sword" and shaved his long back into a hair...
Although compared to Bai Tu's "killing one person is like killing my father", it is too low-profile, but it also made Cao Cao at least appease the people from Yanzhou to Nanyang.
Zhang Xiu, who knew that Liu Biao had made peace with Cao Cao, was afraid that he would lose his role and did not see Liu Biao's reinforcements, so he simply surrendered to Cao Cao and welcomed him into the Wancheng military camp.
After all, it was Liu Biao who killed his uncle Zhang Ji, who was close to him as father and son, while Cao Cao and Zhang Xiu... only had a small grudge at best - the old grudges between Cao Cao and the Xiliang generals were nothing in comparison.
Big deal.
It is said that Cao Cao took advantage of the great cause of attacking Yuan Shu. He first made Liu Biao dare not act rashly, and then frightened Zhang Xiu. He captured Wancheng without any bloodshed and controlled the southern gate of Jingzhou from the Central Plains. From now on, he could look south to Xinye and Rangcheng when he entered, and he could retreat when he retreated.
Ensure the stability of the rear and defend Wancheng to prevent interference from Nanyang...
It can be said to be a bloody profit!
However, at this moment, Cao Cao showed off his cool moves and reached new heights.
In the Wancheng military camp, Cao Cao's "good wife" attribute suddenly couldn't be suppressed, and there was also a bad nephew Cao Anmin by his side...
Cao Cao was fine with everything else, but Cao Anmin actually "recommended" Zhang Ji's widow... who was Zhang Xiu's aunt, Mrs. Zou, in order to please Cao Cao!
Cao Cao, who looked like a monk, had no intention of introspection at all, but he was actually tempted. After that... he got into trouble.
After Zhang Xiu learned about this, he became so angry that he decided to rebel against Cao that night!
Moreover, although Zhang Xiu was a martial artist, Jia Xu, the poisonous warrior who had advised Li Jue and Guo Si, was under Zhang Xiu's tent. Knowing that Zhang Xiu could no longer persuade him, Jia Xu made a plan for Zhang Xiu...
First, Zhang Xiu's confidant Hu Che'er went to drink with Cao Cao's former guard Dian Wei, and got the unprepared Dian Wei drunk. Then he stole his military talisman, and then attacked the unsuspecting Cao Cao army at night!
Dian Wei served as Cao Cao's bodyguard. Although he was not familiar with military affairs, he possessed a level of bravery that even Lu Bu would take seriously. In terms of military force alone, Lu Bu rated him even higher than Guan and Zhang.
It's just that the Elai armor, as the relic of the Yin Shang general Erai more than a thousand years ago, has a very obvious flaw from today's perspective - it has no engine interface!
Before the Pre-Qin Warring States Period, not only did each country have no cavalry, but the armor of generals inspired by Cheng Ji did not have engine interfaces. Only the armors obtained by the northern barbarians from their shaman Ji had engine interfaces.
Later, King Wuling of Zhao moved a shaman Ji to return to the south with a series of saucy operations, and then innovated Zhao Guochengji's technology. After discovering its effect, other countries also rushed to imitate it, and then there were cavalry, and now there are cavalry with engine interfaces.
Battle armor!
The previous armor, because there was no interface for engine components, could not load the engine trained from BMW. It only had the raw power of the armor itself, which made the "Evil" look very bulky, unable to move quickly over long distances, and unable to fly.
too high...
But the advantage is that there is an extra weapon interface - there is a pair of armor arms on the back, which means you can hold two sets of weapons at the same time!
Just like in a chariot, there are soldiers on each side of the chariot...
Moreover, the way Dian Wei inherited the armor from Eilai was also different from that of Sun Ce. When Sun Ce inherited Xiang Yu's armor, he already had his own armor. The two were "fused", while Dian Wei inherited the armor from Eilai completely naked.
First.
Both inheritance methods have their own advantages and disadvantages, but Dian Wei's inheritance method is destined to inherit all the flaws and advantages of "Evil Lai"...
Generally, Dian Wei holds short melee halberds with both hands. The armored arms behind his back can also use the row of small halberds behind his back at any time, which can be used for melee combat or throwing!
When Lu Bu was discussing with Bai Tu about the mighty generals in the world, he listed Dian Wei Zhiyong above Guan and Zhang.
At least when Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were at Hulao Pass, they were not at the peak of the Golden Jade Armor. Otherwise, Lu Bu, who was only at the peak of the Golden Jade Armor at that time, would probably not have the chance to break through.
When Dian Wei was in the battle of Puyang, Lu Bu discovered that he had been able to fully exert the power of the "evil" relic armor, that is, he could exert the peak strength of Jin Yu!
It's just that in the future... if this troubled times continues and other golden and powerful generals have a further foundation, Lu Bu is more optimistic about Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.
Because Dian Wei only inherited the "evil", it was difficult for him to take that step on his own.
However, during the Wancheng Rebellion, after losing the Evil Soldier Talisman, Dian Wei could only go into battle naked...
In order to deal with Dian Wei, Hu Che'er specially brought Zhang Xiu's personal soldiers into the battle - the personal soldiers, that is, sergeants with only wood and stone armor, and no Ji Zao soldiers!
Dian Wei, a man who is more courageous than anyone else, also made Jia Xu think hard...
A large number of Ji-made soldiers would interfere with the effectiveness of the battle armor. As Dianwei does not have a battle armor now, he naturally has to seize this advantage and not send Ji-made soldiers at all. With the gold-plated peak Hu Che'er, and hundreds of relatives
The soldiers surrounded and killed Dian Wei!
Dian Wei took the simple sword from the enemy's hand and faced the enemy with difficulty...
It was only at this time that Hu Che'er realized the gap between himself and Dian Wei. He originally thought that he was about to be promoted to Jinyu, but he also made a pair of iron halberds, which was not much different from Dian Wei. The military advisor was too careful, and Hu Che'er wanted to challenge him alone.
, as a test for your promotion.
Unexpectedly, Dian Wei was able to compete with him in a one-on-one duel even without his armor!
Because Cao Cao's camp was retreating behind him, even after Hu Che'er saw that he couldn't take him down for a while and called many soldiers to swarm him, Dian Wei still fought to the death at the gate of the camp and killed dozens of wood and stone soldiers...
When Dianwei's body was covered in blood and flesh, especially his right shoulder blade, which was broken by Hu Che'er with an iron halberd, and when an ordinary person could no longer stand, he still stood in front of the tent with his head held high, even if it was clear that he could no longer stand.
Knowing that the opponent was at the end of his battle, the surrounding soldiers, including Hu Che'er, did not dare to approach for a while.
But at this moment, a heartbeat like a war drum sounded in Dian Wei's chest, and at the same time... the Evil Soldier Talisman collected by Hu Che'er quietly "broken" into a stream of light, and rushed towards Dian Wei again unstoppably!
