Chapter 624: Full of Doubts
Cao Cao and Wang Can, both of them have their own plans and plans.
Wang Can led the troops to attract Cao Cao's attention so that Cao Cao had no time to take care of other things; Cao Cao and Wang Can quarreled because they wanted to spend time with Wang Can, so that Wang Can would return in vain.
Cao Cao set up the formation, and Wang Can sent troops to break the formation.
The fight between the two sides is simple, even somewhat absurd.
After a big battle, the losses on both sides were not large, and the fighting array was just a chew that Xi Zhi came up with for Cao Cao.
In the evening, Wang Can withdrew his soldiers and shouted, "Mengde, I have led the troops back to the camp." Tomorrow, I will raise an army to attack, and I will not fight with you again. Alas, if you don't let the generals under your command fight, protect Xiahou Yuan and others like an eagle protecting a chicken, it is impossible for them to grow, only like Xiahou Dun can the phoenix nirvana, and the more you fight, the stronger you become! ”
Wang Can's voice was loud and reverberated on the battlefield.
After Cao Cao heard this, he trembled with anger.
He and Wang Can talked nonsense for an afternoon, and there was no big war on either side. However, when Wang Can left, he had to stimulate him and make Cao Cao angry in his heart. But after the anger, Cao Cao calmed down again. A general who leads the army must not only consider the victory or defeat of the battlefield, but also the every move of the enemy army.
Wang Can suddenly led the troops, and Cao Cao had doubts in his heart.
He asked Xi Zhicai at the beginning, but Xi Zhicai didn't make it clear.
This idea has always been pressed in Cao Cao's heart, and he can't figure it out. Now that Wang Can left, Cao Cao calmed down and continued to think, but he didn't understand it after all, so he had to pay attention to the matter of the knife car.
……
In the big tent of the Chinese army, Cao Cao asked: "Zhicai, how long will it take for the knife car to be completed?" ”
Xi Zhicai hugged his fists and said: "Lord, one day, it can be completed." ”
One day!
Cao Cao muttered, with a happy look on his face, and said, "Let the soldiers who make the knife carts rush to make them overnight, and strive to finish all the knife carts by noon tomorrow." After I am done, I will lead the army to kill Wang Can and pull out Wang Can's camp. ”
When Cao Cao spoke, he gritted his teeth, his eyes flashed with a cold light, he was humiliated by Wang Can in the afternoon, and he still never forgot it. Perhaps, both of them have great ambitions and sympathize with each other because of the ambitions in their chests, but on the battlefield, there are no friends, no friendships, only enemies that must be killed.
"Let's arrange it."
After hearing this, Xi Zhicai replied with a fist, and then turned around to make arrangements.
Cao Cao stayed alone in the big tent and thought carefully.
He didn't figure out Wang Can's intentions, and it was as if he had a pimple in his heart. It's just that Cao Cao is not a roundworm in Wang Can's stomach, so he can't guess what Wang Can's intentions are? He had a faint bad premonition in his heart, but it was like a fog, and Xi Zhicai didn't guess it, which made Cao Cao a little anxious.
"Whew! Call! ”
Cao Cao took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
Then, Cao Cao considered the things in the army one by one, starting with the grain and grass in the army, and considered them one by one.
Because Cao Ren had already escorted grain and grass a few times before, and Cao Ren had always led the troops cautiously, proficient in the art of war, and there were 600 soldiers under his command to protect the grain and grass, and they were still in the rear of the army, so Cao Cao first put the problem of grain and grass behind, and did not delve into the matter of grain and grass, but continued to think about other issues.
Cao Cao thought about it, but he didn't expect that there would be a place where the pool would be bad.
It's just that he would never have thought that there would be a problem with the most reassuring grain channel.
……
As the sun sets, the sky gradually darkens.
Under the silent night sky, only the chirping of birds, and a group of soldiers still hurrying on the official road.
This group of soldiers is the grain guards led by Cao Ren. Because it was not completely dark, he asked the soldiers to continue their journey and hurried to the Cao army camp. A junior colonel trotted to Cao Ren's side and said, "General, it's dark and it's not easy to hurry, do you want to stop and rest?" ”
Cao Ren shook his head and said, "Time is tight, continue to hurry." ”
After the junior colonel received the order, he immediately went to convey the order.
The long line did not stop and kept moving forward.
Cao Ren saw that the soldiers were tired and the sky was dark, and it was difficult to hurry, so he ordered to rest. He left two hundred soldiers to protect the team and guard the surrounding area, while the remaining four hundred soldiers rested in place. Although the cold is heavy, the rest time is not long, and you have to continue to hurry, so you are all traveling lightly.
At night, there was silence.
"Step! Trample! Trample! ”
I don't know when, there was a sound of hurried footsteps on the official road, and clusters of firelight suddenly flashed out, illuminating the official road, and constantly moving forward in the dark night.
Seeing this, the soldier in charge of the guard immediately woke up the four hundred soldiers who were resting. After Cao Ren heard the footsteps, he also quickly stood up and stared into the distance. The sound of footsteps came from far and near, and the torches were clearly visible on the official road, and Cao Hong's pupils shrank suddenly after seeing the crowd in front of him.
"Alert!"
He roared and quickly drew his sword at his waist, ready to face the enemy.
Under the light of the fire, Cao Hong clearly saw that the enemy army was not Cao Cao's soldiers, but wearing the clothes of the Yizhou army.
Among them, what surprised Cao Ren even more was that among the generals who led the troops to come, there was Xu Rong, the former princes begged for Dong, Cao Cao, Wang Can and Sun Jian and others joined forces to attack Dong Zhuo's army, Cao Ren had seen Xu Rong, so he still remembered Xu Rong's appearance. When Cao Ren saw Xu Rong wearing the military uniform of the Yizhou Army, the surprise in his heart can be imagined.
Not only that, but one of the generals who led the troops was an old acquaintance Pei Yuanshao.
Wang Can led the troops to fight with Dong Zhuo, Pei Yuanshao was there from beginning to end, and Cao Ren was of course very familiar with it.
Seeing this, Cao Ren's heart suddenly sank.
The road where the army escorted the grain was located at the rear of Cao Cao's camp, and Xu Rong and Pei Yuanshao led the soldiers to rob the grain, but they were not discovered by Cao Cao, which made Cao Ren a little puzzled.
"Da! Da! ”
The sound of horses' hooves kept ringing, gradually approaching Cao Ren's army.
Cao Ren led hundreds of soldiers to escort food, it was impossible to retreat, once retreated, countless grains would be lost, so he could only meet the enemy, and only by defeating the soldiers led by Xu Rong and Pei Yuanshao would he have a chance.
He carefully looked at the soldiers led by Xu Rong and Pei Yuanshao, and saw that there were not many soldiers who came quickly, and the number of soldiers under his command was not far behind, so he breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart. As long as the number of the two armies was not far apart, Cao Ren still had the confidence to defeat Xu Rong and ensure the safety of grain and grass.
Cao Ren turned over and rode on his horse, aimed his long knife at Xu Rong, and shouted: "Sons, there is an enemy army ahead, and the time has come to make meritorious contributions, kill the enemy with me, kill the enemy with me!" ”
He roared and rode out.
"Kill!"
The six hundred soldiers behind Cao Ren were all trained by him, and they were also elite soldiers, not old, weak, sick and disabled. When these soldiers heard Cao Ren's roar, they all echoed loudly, drew their swords at their waists and charged. At noon, a colonel complained to Cao Ren that he did not go to the battlefield, and when the two armies met, the soldiers were extremely excited and rushed forward quickly, wanting to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions.
Under the light of the fire, there are many figures, and the light of the knife flickers.
When Lu Meng saw Cao Ren leading the troops to kill, he smiled, the corners of his mouth hooked, revealing a cold smile.
Tonight, it is destined to be a river of blood from Cao Jun.
