Chapter 16 Hail Weather
Cao Ren rode back to the front of the battle, and said to Cao Pi angrily: "Second son, Li Chen's guy is rude, let's attack." ”
Cao Ren was humiliated and naturally didn't dare in his heart, at this time he just wanted to storm Xuzhou and capture Li Chen alive.
Seeing this, Cao Pi hurriedly persuaded him: "General Cao Ren should not be angry, and he must not spoil the eldest brother's plan." ”
At this time, Cao Ren's mentality had collapsed, and naturally he couldn't let him go to the city to ridicule. So Cao Pi got out of the hut and got up on the horse.
In the majestic rain, Li Chen stood on the city wall, looked at Cao Pi under the city with a smile and said, "The second son is here again, and he is not welcome." ”
Li Chen's clever use of this word, this is an insinuation that Cao Pi was defeated last time, and he will come again this time.
Under the city of Xuzhou, Cao Pi rode his horse and stood up: "Li Chen, I don't talk to you so fast, how can you call Xuzhou a little palace handsome." This Xuzhou city is the place where my Cao clan must take, and the Cao clan's 300,000 troops will arrive in less than a month. The acquaintance still handed over my grandfather's murderer and gave up Xuzhou. My father has always cherished talents, and he will definitely give you a good job. ”
Since the Spring and Autumn period, marshal has been the highest position in the army. Since Liu Bang, the Han Dynasty no longer set up marshals. The highest military rank in the DPRK has also changed from marshal to general, just like Wei Qing, Huo Guang is just a general.
And the last general of this Han Dynasty was He Jin, and after He Jin, Dong Zhuo ruled and called Xiangguo. Whether it is the Xiangguo called by Dong Zhuo, or the prime minister called by Cao Cao, who coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes in the future, they are all more biased towards civil officials.
Li Chen admits that he is not a civilian official, but he does not want to call himself a general. How to say it, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, including the Three Kingdoms period after that, it can be said that generals are everywhere, and school captains are not as good as dogs. In this era, miscellaneous generals can be described as everywhere. It is precisely because of this that Li Chen called himself the palace marshal.
"Our army is so prosperous, how can the lord of my family not be called the palace commander?" Li Siye said with some unconvincing.
"Hmph, looking at the Xuzhou soldiers, there are only 50,000 soldiers, and there will be no more than 10 soldiers, so how can the soldiers win?" Cao Pi said unceremoniously.
Li Siye is not good at words, and he was inevitably a little speechless when he was scolded by Cao Pi like this.
"Haha, Cao Ergongzi is right. My little Xuzhou talks about the prosperity of the soldiers, and the eight hundred Mo sword soldiers have only defeated three thousand tigers and leopards. ”
"Heir, you Mo sword soldier is weak. Tomorrow, I'll practice with your 3,000 pigs. Look at these 3,000 pigs and 3,000 tigers and leopards, that's easy to kill. Li Chen reprimanded Li Siye.
"No, my lord, I will definitely deal with those three thousand pigs like I did with tigers and leopards." Li Siye said solemnly.
"Hmph, talk to Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will let you know what it means to have five sprays in one second." Li Chen thought so in his heart.
Cao Pi's face was pale, and his whole popularity trembled, and he pointed to Li Chen on the city wall and said, "Li Chen, do you dare to come out to fight." ”
"Get out, why should I go out?"
"But it's not impossible for Gongzi Cao to come in if he wants to, when I get married to Zhen Mi, I will definitely give the second son a wedding card." Li Chen teased.
"Shameless, shameless." Cao Pi only felt angry at this time, and he was almost angry.
At the beginning, Zhen Mi was married to Yuan Tan, and he Cao Pi robbed Zhen Mi, which was equivalent to slapping Yuan Shao in the face, making Cao Cao crush Yuan's momentum, and making Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Yuan, a laughing stock.
However, now that Li Chen intercepted his Cao family's Hu, now he Cao Pi will become the talk of the world after dinner.
And it is conceivable that he Cao Pi will inevitably become a joke bigger than Yuan Tan. Because the Cao family took Zhen Mi from the Yuan family, the two of them are quite powerful forces. But now it's different, Li Chen, a small bandit, snatched Zhen Mi from his Cao family. This is a great shame for the Cao family.
"Cowardly children, don't dare to go out of the city to fight, they will only take advantage of their tongues."
Seeing the scolding battle under the city, he wanted to provoke Li Chen to let him out of the city, but who knew that he had never scolded others and didn't say it, first Cao Ren was angry and vomited blood, and now he was also angry. Under the city, Cao Pi had no choice but to refute powerlessly.
Li Chen smiled indifferently: "Cao Pi, it's not that I don't dare to go out of the city, but it's not necessary. ”
"What do you mean?" Cao Pi asked puzzled.
Li Chen stood on the city wall and said to Cao Pi under the city: "Cao Pi, how about you and I make a bet." If I can break your Cao army without sending a single soldier, how about you and I meet in the future, how about your Cao Pi retreat? ”
"Huh!"
As soon as Li Chen's words came out, Cao Pi couldn't help but sneer. Don't send a single soldier to break the Cao army, what kind of dream is this. The only thing that can break the army without manpower is a few strategies such as water attack and fire attack.
Water attack is impossible, because there is no sign of water storage near Xuzhou City.
As for the fire attack, it is even more impossible, and now it is a weather of heavy rain.
"In today's weather, water and fire are useless, Li Chen, if you can break my Cao army without a single soldier. Don't say retreat when we meet in the future, I'll call you grandpa when we meet. Cao Pi said coldly, he said in his heart, if you want to scare me away Cao Pi by such means, isn't it a fool's dream.
"Cao Pi, do you know how Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, used 3,000 bull cavalry soldiers to defeat Wang Mang's million-strong army in the Battle of Kunyang?" Li Chen asked.
"Hahaha!" Cao Pi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then laughed: "Could it be that you want to say that meteorites can fall from the sky now." ”
"Emperor Guangwu of Han is the mandate of heaven, and such a miracle has never been seen once even in thousands of years. Li Chen, you really can't be a person of destiny. ”
"I'm talking about Cao Pi here, if a meteorite can fall from the sky now, how many will it fall, and how many will I swallow him alive."
"Hey." Li Chen sighed lightly and used the hail technique opened in the blind box.
This hail spell is consumable and can only be used once. However, seeing that Cao Pi was not very old, he came out to cheat and cheat, and Li Chen did not want to disappoint him.
Suddenly, the heavy rain in the sky seemed to stop for a moment.
Immediately after, the sound of "bang, bang, bang" sounded. Countless huge hailstones "swished" in the sky.
The curtain of rain falling from the sky turned into hail almost instantly. The hailstones were 30 centimeters in size, and they "crackled" in Cao Jun.
Thirty centimeters in diameter, this is the size of two or three adults' fists. The dense hail fell furiously in Cao Jun's camp, and this thing smashed on his body, even Cao Jun in armor couldn't defend against it.
"Raise your shield, raise your shield quickly."
Cao Ren shouted, letting the sword and shield soldiers in the front row raise the big shield in their hands to block their heads.
However, these shielded soldiers are only a minority. Many of the soldiers who did not have shields had already been knocked unconscious.
"Ahh
Suddenly, Cao Pi let out a terrible shout.
