After listening to Cao Ren's last defeat, Cao Ang said: "In this way, the defeat of the second brother is a bit incredible, but it is also understandable. ”

"Oh?"

"What do you mean by that, big brother?" Cao Pi hurriedly asked.

In the past few days, Cao Pi can be described as depressed, he can't figure out how he lost when he thinks about it.

In the words of the 21st century, Lao Tzu smoked three boxes of cigarettes and didn't understand how he lost.

"Second brother, the three thousand tigers and leopards you led are leopard rides. The leopard rider is a light soldier who is good at fighting, and has killed the enemy with arrows and sabers. And listen to you, the enemy is heavy infantry, and they use long knives to kill the enemy. Its individual soldiers are large, well-armed and well-trained, and in all respects they are good at restraining the Leopard Riders. ”

"This Mo sword soldier was originally used to restrain the cavalry, and the second brother used the leopard cavalry who was good at fighting to face it head-on. Attacking the enemy's strength with one's own shortcomings in this way is not a matter of overcoming the gark? ”

"People wear heavy armor, even if they are burly, if they fight for a long time, they will inevitably lose their strength. In my opinion, if you are meeting it. You can first use the leopard to fight and consume its physical strength, and then use the tiger to face the enemy, so that it will be victorious. Cao Angkai said.

From Cao Ren's narration alone, Cao Ang analyzed the advantages of the Mo Sword Soldier and thought of a way to crack the Mo Sword Soldier. It can be seen that this Cao Ang is not simple.

Cao Ang, as Cao Cao's eldest son, can be described as an all-rounder of Wen Taowu. You must know that Cao Ang was promoted to filial piety in the year of the weak crown. Cao Pi is good at martial arts, while Cao Zhi is good at writing, and Cao Ang can be said to be a combination of two younger brothers.

This is also why, when Cao Ang died in Wancheng because of Cao Cao. Cao Cao's main room, Mrs. Ding, directly turned her face with Cao Cao, and the reason why she didn't get along with him when she died of old age.

Cao Ang's biological mother was Mrs. Liu, who died not long after giving birth to Cao Ang. In other words, Cao Ang is only the adopted son of Mrs. Ding, because the adopted son turned against Cao Cao, which shows how good Cao Ang is.

During the Han Dynasty, the selection of officials used the probation system, and this filial piety was probably the champion of later generations. And Cao Ang was promoted to filial piety at the age of a weak crown, which probably means that he became the champion when he was less than 20 years old.

It can be seen that Cao Ang is a very capable person, so to speak, if Cao Ang did not die in Wancheng, Cao Pi would have no possibility of inheriting the Cao family's great cause.

Hearing Cao Ang's analysis, Cao Pi suddenly had a shameful thought in his heart.

"Big brother, I still have two thousand leopard riders under my command, and your five thousand tiger riders will lend me. Tomorrow, I will definitely be able to break the Mo sword soldiers. ”

"Nope." As soon as Cao Pi's words fell, Cao Ang immediately denied. He pondered for a moment and then said, "If my father wants to achieve great things, he must need an elite soldier like Mo Dao Bing. According to General Cao Ren's words, half of the credit for the benefits of this Mo sword soldier is in this equipment. ”

"It's not enough to break the Mo sword soldiers, we have to find a way to surround the Mo sword soldiers. It is best to persuade them to surrender, if not, they must be annihilated, get their armor and weapons, and capture that Li Siye alive. In this way, my Cao clan has another elite army. ”

"The eldest prince is right, the armor and equipment of this Mo sword soldier is far better than my tiger and leopard ride, and it can be called a divine weapon in the world." Cao Ren nodded and agreed.

Cao Ren is a general in Cao's army, and his strength is naturally good. The armor and equipment of the Mo Sword Soldiers, he could see at a glance that its sophistication was far from being comparable to the equipment of Cao Jun's tiger and leopard riding.

The armor and equipment of the Mo sword soldiers were made by the top craftsmanship of the Tang Dynasty. This Tang Dynasty was more than 300 years later than the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Han Dynasty, which is a 300-year accumulation of technology. From this point of view, the equipment of the tiger and leopard riders must not be comparable to that of the Mo sword soldiers.

"So, big brother has a plan?" Cao Pi asked excitedly.

At this time, the Cao family brothers were quite united, and among the two choices of breaking the bloody shame of the Mo sword soldiers and getting the elite of the Mo sword soldiers, Cao Pi naturally chose the latter.

Although this cannot wash away the shame for Cao Pi, and it must be Cao Ang who is in the limelight, it is beneficial to the entire Cao family.

The person who asks the problem is responsible for solving the problem. This is the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation, and since Cao Ang dared to make this suggestion, he naturally had an immature little idea in his heart.

"In this way, tomorrow the second brother will lead the troops to the city to mock him. Second brother, you are the defeated general of Li Chen's subordinates, he will definitely not be afraid of you, and he will definitely send people out of the city to fight. ”

"At that time, you will not be allowed to win, and you will pretend to be defeated and retreat to lead the Mo sword soldiers to pursue. When the time comes, I will set up an ambush here, and we will surround the front and rear, and this strange sword soldier must be in our pocket. Cao Ang said, pointing to the location on the map five miles outside Xuzhou City.

"Okay, it's up to the big brother. If I can add an elite soldier to my Cao clan, my Cao Pi will not be defeated once, even ten times and a hundred times. Cao Pi replied.

Early the next morning, dark clouds were thick, and the "rumbling" thunder sounded non-stop, and God seemed to be brewing a majestic rain.

"Report ......"

With a shout, the scout rushed into the Cloud Dragon Palace, knelt down on one knee and said: "Report to the palace marshal, Cao Pi led 30,000 foot soldiers to attack, and the vanguard force has already driven three miles away." ”

As soon as the scout's voice fell, Chen Deng on the side frowned and said, "Palace Shuai, looking at the current sky, I'm afraid that it won't take an hour for this heavy rain to come." Attacking on a rainy day is a taboo for the march, and it is impossible for Cao Pi not to be clear. I'm afraid there's a conspiracy in this. ”

"Hmph, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth."

"It's just that his subordinates are defeated, and I can still be afraid that he won't succeed."

"Inform the generals, let's go to the city wall to see what tricks he Cao Pi is playing." Li Chen snorted coldly and chuckled.

Under the city of Xuzhou, dark clouds are overwhelming.

Not far from the city, a soldier with a black flag and black armor was already in battle, and under the handsome banner was Li Chen's defeated general Cao Pi.

At this time.

"Boom."

First lightning flashed, then thunder rang out.

"Whoa."

Heavy rain poured down.

Under the city of Xuzhou, raindrops the size of beans formed a rain curtain.

On the city wall of Xuzhou.

Li Chen stood on the city wall, and behind him were Chen Deng, Li Siye and other civil and military officials.

"Li Chen, you are really shameless. occupies a small Xuzhou, and dares to call himself handsome. It's really a pig's nose with green onions, and what kind of elephant is it. ”

......

......

Under the city, in the midst of heavy rain. Cao Ren rode his horse and galloped, and his mouth was full of filthy words.

"Palace Marshal, the last general will ask for battle, and Cao Ren and the horse will be killed." Li Siye looked at Cao Ren under the city viciously, as if he wanted to eat him alive.

"Kill chickens with a cattle slaughtering knife, little Cao Ren, why do you need General Siye to make a move, and the last general Guan Sheng will ask for battle." Guan Sheng was stunned by the glaive knife in his hand, and a pair of Danfeng's eyes were full of murderous aura.

As the so-called lord humiliates his ministers to death, how can the generals under Li Chen's command tolerate Cao Ren's nonsense.

"Lord, on such a rainy day, Cao Jun is still calling for battle under the city."

"This is deliberately provoking the generals, I'm afraid there is a conspiracy." Chen Deng reminded on the side.

At this time, the generals under Li Chen's command were passionate, and Chen Deng could not say that he would not fight. But as a strategist, he must also remind Li Chen that this situation is mostly a conspiracy.
