Chapter 255: Attack
Cao Cao is not without a way out, he is a self-proclaimed Yanzhou Mu and Yuzhou Mu, but he is also the Doctor of the Five Classics of Zhao State, and he doesn't even need to surrender, as long as he goes north with the official seal, no one will stop him.
But at this point, no one will talk about it. Cao Cao couldn't throw off his robes and siblings to avoid death alone.
He is Cao Mengde, Cao Mengde, who has no shuangwen tao and a martial arts strategy, although he is dissolute, he can't do anything like that. Before leaving, Cao Cao paced outside the city and looked back at the blue background Cao character flag hanging at the head of Qi County, which was the best flag left in his army, with a good color, neat and tidy flag, and the handwriting was also written by him himself, and the end was very powerful.
It's just that people don't look like flags, and the so-called Cao clan is like a joke in Cao Cao's eyes. Where is there any Cao family in the world, the so-called Cao family is nothing more than him, Cao Mengde.
Cao's family, more than ten years ago, the Cao family in Qiaoxian County was the Cao family, what is the current Cao family?
The road was smooth, the carriages and horses were sluggish, and the oppressive atmosphere made Cao Cao feel very familiar memories, which was many years ago, when Dong Zhuo first entered Luoyang, and he served as a lieutenant of Xiao Cavalry. Yuan Shaobei ran to the east gate, he also escaped from Luoyang, and was wanted by the anti-thief Cao Mengde, so he ran east abruptly, and only after several dangers did he enter Chen Liutai's station of guarding Zhang Miao. At that time, for the rest of his life, he only knew that he had the strength to regroup and vowed to fight against Dong thieves for the Han family.
At that time, he was still young, and he didn't know that everything that followed was determined by that turmoil.
It was a great time! Don't think about anything, don't think about it, don't care about the pros and cons. At that time, most of the young people who started the army were like this, right? They went from calm to turbulent, and they just wanted to do everything they could to turn the tide, help the building to fall, and restore everything to the pre-turmoil era.
They don't know that there is no going back.
But there are many people who don't think like this, Yuan Shao is not, and Yanbei must not be either.
Sometimes Cao Cao felt that everything was full of paradoxes, Yuan Shao understood a lot of truths, and the way of thinking about things was different from him, although he despised it, he could also understand that Yuan Shao was much older than him. But Yanbei is obviously younger than him, but his thoughts are full of philistines, maybe the only true expression in his life is used on himself, so that he kicked out the case of Kong Ling in the sour jujube camp.
borrowed the kindness of his 8,000 soldiers and horses, and Cao Cao couldn't pay it back until now.
Sometimes Cao Cao would also think about what would happen if the tiger prison was closed back then, and he was willing to take the emperor to Yecheng with Yanbei? But just think about it, many bullshit things in Yedu have been heard of by Cao Cao in Henan, if the two princes accept the emperor together, I am afraid that the result will be more ruthless than turning against each other.
Time flies like a white horse, and Cao Cao can't remember what has happened in the past ten years. It seems that after begging Dong, he is already dead, like a walking corpse, although he fought in the south and the north, he always ...... It's not as high-spirited as it was then.
Bao Yuncheng died, on the way to pacify Yanzhou; His father and the children of his clan died, and died on the way back from refuge; Xiahou Yuan died, dying in the battle with Zhang Liao; Cao Ren died, and he also died in the war with the Yan clan.
Now things are not people, Cao Cao, who was suddenly alone more than ten years ago, was beaten back to his original form again, and was trapped by the Liangzhou army in a hundred miles and could not move and dodge.
Everything in this world is very different from what people think and expect.
In the past few years, the Cao family mobilized more than 100,000 soldiers to maintain the Han family, but in the face of the general trend, they were like praying mantises, and they were crushed into powder in an instant.
After all, I still can't go back!
Cao Cao really wanted to go back to the sour jujube to see, the years passed in a flash, and today, although the disputes are divided, it cannot be denied that the people in the world are much better than then, even if the war does not stop in any year or even a month, but in most of the world, it is always peaceful.
But Cao Cao still couldn't help but think about it, recalling the turbulent era when the princes of the Kwantung region gathered all the sour dates and the leaders of the Kwanxi region gathered all the heroes and heroes of the whole world. Everyone was alive then, and everything was fine then.
It's like the Hongmen Banquet, which makes future generations yearn for it. They sit in the sour jujube camp, and they will also be longed for by future generations, which is a beautiful scene where the whole era gathers together. A thousand years from there, people will not forget.
Now, several years later, Cao Cao rode on a horse, and finally realized by chance, when they left the sour jujube camp to say goodbye, the curtain of the old era and the prelude to the new era began.
The flat terrain of Qi County's made it difficult for Cao Cao to find a hillside where he could sit and watch the battlefield, and around him, 14,000 troops lined up and waited for the Liangzhou army to visit.
Cao Cao knew that Ma Chao would definitely receive the news of his big expedition, and according to Ma Chao's previous style, once he heard the news that he was out of the city, he would definitely not help but lead the army to come here to fight him to the death.
Merely...... Things didn't seem to be the same as Cao Cao had imagined. When the sun rose, his army sent out from the city of Qixian County, marched more than thirty miles before entering the predetermined battlefield, the army waited in formation, the sun gradually rose and gradually descended in the future, but they could see nothing except the birds stirred up by the occasional flight of the beasts in the woods.
In the blink of an eye, three hours passed, and the sun was sinking in the west, and the sky was getting dark.
Cao Cao became impatient.
He has been waiting for Ma Chao, but he doesn't know how many soldiers and horses Ma Chao will bring over, in fact, now Cao Cao can no longer maintain a normal heart, under the atmosphere of death, no matter what it is, Cao Cao is thinking about nothing more than whether Ma Chao will bring 20,000 soldiers and horses or 30,000 soldiers and horses to attack.
But Ma Chao was calm.
In fact, when Cao Cao went out of the city, Ma Chao received the news, although he despised Cao Cao, but he did not expect that Cao Cao would take out nearly 15,000 troops outside the city, and the scouts reported that Cao Cao's army was hung with white flags in the formation, and it was terrifying to fight for death.
Many of the leaders of the Qiang tribe under his command had never seen Cao Dashanren's family background, and more than 10,000 soldiers and horses were suddenly displayed, and each of them shouted to ask Ma Chao for battle, and before they started fighting, they all felt that their tribe had gained a lot this time.
But Ma Chao disagreed.
Cao Yan once said, one drum, then decline, three and exhaustion.
Cao Cao's strategy of mourning boosted the morale of Cao's army when they left the city, and by the time they planned to fight, their morale was at its peak, and if they fought against Cao's army at that time, most of his men would have been defeated. Ma Chao was unwilling to test Cao Jun's morale with the lives of his subordinates, so he chose to wait.
In fact, Ma Chao was not far from Cao Cao, and even in order to find out the enemy's situation, he personally drove his horse to the high slope twenty miles away from Cao's army formation to observe the enemy's formation.
After all, he didn't have 20,000 or 30,000 troops, he only had about 10,000 sons.
"Pass on my military order, and order the leaders of all the tribes to hold on to the two flanks and harass the enemy army after the battle." As the sun sank, Ma Chao ordered the soldiers and horses to form a formation, turned over and waved an iron spear and said, "The whole army is attacking!" ”
