"Cao's heroes are so many!"

Xiang County, Pei Guo Governance.

The Wu army retreated, and Gao Ran, at the suggestion of Zhang Hong, immediately raised troops to the west and invaded the territory of Peiguo. On the third day, he went down to five cities in a row, and two days before the army came to Xiang County. Originally, Gao Ran thought that at most he would be able to go down to the city if he encountered some resistance, after all, there was more Cao Hong and more troops, but now that he looks at it, he is full of emotion.

Zhang Hong also sighed: "The deputy governor is reasonable. Not to mention Cao Hong and others, even Cao Chong and Cao Zhi in Zhuo County, it is really a rare genius in a thousand years! ”

"Academics aren't joking, are they?" Gao Ran exclaimed.

"Definitely!"

"A long traveler, more than a thousand miles home."

"The beautiful jade is born of the stone, and the sword is out of the dragon abyss."

"Turn the canopy away from the roots, and sway with the long wind."

……

Zhang Hong recalled: "What does the deputy governor think? This is from the mouth of Cao Zhi! After Kong Shilang heard about it, Zeng Zan Zijian has the style of a sage, and may open another style of poetry. ”

"What? Pioneering a new style? ”

Gao Ran was shocked again, and suddenly his eyes widened again, and said, "The Kong Shilang that the scholar said is the one from the Ministry of Rites?" After Confucius? ”

"Yes!"

Zhang Hong nodded, and said, "And Cao Zhi and Cao Chong both worshiped under Kong Shilang and became closed disciples. ”

After speaking, he thought of one thing again, and couldn't help sighing: "It's a pity, Cai Guozhang Cai, everyone Cai Shangshu Cai is afraid that it will not work, and when the time comes, Kong Shilang will take over Shangshu, and maybe there will not be so much time to teach disciples." ”

Gao Ran couldn't help but be silent when he heard this. Cai Yong's name, who in the world does not know, can be called the most scribe, and it is half a point higher than the Confucian Shangshu after Kong Sheng. Its one-handed flying white body, almost everyone is either ashamed or amazed when they see it! That......

Such a well-known celebrity and teacher at home is about to pass away, and no one can help but feel suffocated.

Seeing him like this, Zhang Hong couldn't help but mention: "Although Your Majesty has not strictly ordered this matter, try not to spread it, otherwise it may affect the morale of the army." ”

There are not many people in the army who have been taught by Cai Yong, but they are not famous, such as Zhang Fei, the governor of the Northern Army, Zhou Yu, the governor of the Water Army, Huang Xu, the deputy governor of the Western Army, and so on; But now the soldiers in the army have basically been taught by Cai Yong's disciples, registered disciples, and anonymous disciples, and they are regarded as grandchildren. Coupled with Cai Yong's fame, the generals can be said to have great respect for him, if they hear the news, not bombing will also affect their mentality, and the army's heart will be turbulent.

Gao Ran thought through this in a blink of an eye, nodded and agreed. Then, he asked: "I believe that Cao Hong is here, and it is not good to attack with all his might, what should I do now?" ”

Zhang Hong chuckled lightly and said: "The Cao army was defeated in Suojube, and Cao Ren died in Dongwuyang, it can be said that the general trend of the Cao army has gone, if it is a strong attack, it may arouse the resistance of the Cao army, but not the opposite." ”

"Let go of a gap? Circumference three missing one? Gao Lan said.

"Not bad!"

Zhang Hong nodded, then shook his head again and said: "But the time has not yet come, two more days, and then ......."

"The university scholar is really amazing!"

The siege was very urgent before, and you suddenly changed it to a siege of three missing one, and a fool knows that it is a set. In the case that the situation is not urgent, knowing that it is a set, it will definitely not be drilled, so it is necessary to wait.

Gao Ran knew that he was anxious, and nodded, with a lot of admiration on his face.

Zhang Hong chuckled lightly and didn't pay attention to it.

After a while, Zhang Hong said again: "Deputy Governor, maybe you have to say goodbye when you take Xiangxian." ”

"So fast?"

Gao Ran had expected this, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.

Zhang Hong nodded and did not speak. Gao Ran understood that it was inconvenient to say some things, and he also knew that as a member of the cabinet, he had to deal with much more official documents every day than in the army.

Gao Ran cleaned up his mood and asked, "In this case, I wonder if the scholar can mention it, what should I do after taking Xiangxian?" ”

Zhang Hong glanced at Gao Lan with approval, and then said: "As I said before, the defeat of the Cao army is already the trend of the times, and everything is only in the morning and evening of time. So the most important thing after that is stability! Steady and steady, if the enemy does not advance lightly, Cao Jun will not be able to turn up the waves. Of course, if Xuchang makes another move, maybe the time will be advanced. ”

Gao Ran pondered for a moment, felt that it made sense, nodded, and then said curiously: "What does Xuchang mean by other actions?" ”

"Cao's army went south to Jingxiang." Zhang Hong said with certainty.

"In that case...... It seems like there is a lot to be done! ”

Gao Ran was a little surprised, and asked again: "Then do you want to report to Your Majesty first and intercept it?" ”

Zhang Hong smiled silently.

Gao Ran shut up instantly. Zhuoxian Xun You, Xi Zhong, which one is not a great talent in the world, would you not think of these? He's overthinking!

In the city, Cao Hong had just heard the news of the death of his eldest brother. As for how to get it, you can ask the gentle, gentle, and non-branded black man Gang Bachelor!

"Damn, damn ......"

Cao Hong's house is full of dilapidation, if it weren't for someone panting, someone would believe that it was an abandoned house. If Cao Ren is taken care of by Cao Cao, well, Cao Hong is similar, but in the end, it is his eldest brother, who grew up playing with mud together, although they may not be like this, but there are definitely a lot of times they pee in the wind together, and the feelings are naturally very good.

"Revenge!"

"Revenge!"

Cao Hong gritted his teeth and said.

Anger had filled his chest and drowned out his sanity.

Click~

Cao Hong smashed the only intact table in the room with a single shot and rushed out of the door.

"Drumming~"

"General!" The adjutant general chuckled in his heart and said, "Is it ...... at this time?"

With a "whoosh", the lieutenant general felt a cool breeze coming, and when he looked at it again, a fierce spear had already appeared in front of his throat. Cao Hong's angry voice followed: "Ben will let you beat the drum, don't you understand the order?" ”

"Yes, General."

The adjutant general responded, swallowed his saliva again, and said with difficulty: "But now it's about to get dark!" And ......"

After hesitating for a moment, he saw that Cao Hong's face flashed bloodthirsty, and he hurriedly said: "We are defending the city, if we go out of the city, won't we give up the advantage of the city wall?" The most important thing is that the Ming army may just wait for the general to do this! ”

The anger in Cao Hong's mind gradually receded, and reason began to come out to preside over the situation.

Seeing this, the adjutant general made a look, asked the guards on the side to retreat, and then said in a low voice: "The current situation is unfavorable, the prime minister may be thinking of a way, preparing to counterattack, or something else, but all this takes time, and the general is the prime minister's confidant, and the important minister of the court, it is the time to contribute to the prime minister, if he can contain the Ming army for a while longer, the prime minister's preparation will definitely be more sufficient, and then ......"

Cao Hong suddenly realized, although the anger in his mind had not yet disappeared, he could no longer control the situation: "Well, what you said is reasonable, so do it." ”

After speaking, Cao Hong hurried back to the mansion. Yes, Mansion, as the richest man under Cao Cao, he didn't want to be wronged to stay in the barracks. It's just that this time the purpose is different, he is just worried that he will not be able to resist coming again.

"Don't let anyone disturb the general."

Back at home, Cao Hong dropped such a sentence and went directly into the room of the pet concubine. It wasn't brought by Cao Hong, but it was found (robbed) here. Of course, money was spent. Oh, not whatever, but bought.

In this way, Cao Hong spent two days in the room of the pet concubine, and it was not until the deputy general came to the door that he found out-

"What do you say? The Ming army did not attack the city in the past two days? ”

When the deputy general heard the black lines on his head, he had a feeling in his heart that Cao Hong was overly brained by something. In view of Cao Hong's past black history, the deputy general did not say, but said: "The general is not bad, the Ming army has not attacked the city in the past two days, and there seem to be signs of retreat." ”

"Hmm!"

Listening to the previous words, Cao Hong nodded with satisfaction, but the last sentence made his eyes widen suddenly, and he said strangely: "Are you sure that the Ming army is going to retreat?" ”

The adjutant general was so sure that he hurriedly said: "Not sure, it just looks like." Today, the Ming army did not besiege the city on all sides, so the subordinates had this kind of speculation. ”

"Well, I see." Cao Hong smashed his mouth twice and said with some dissatisfaction.

For another two days, although the Ming army did not retreat, it was indeed no longer blockaded on all sides as before.

"Circumference three is missing one!"

Cao Hong said with certainty.

The lieutenant also affirmed: "This is a good thing, what we need is time." And we can also spread the news to the outside world, if the prime minister intends to fight back, maybe we can mobilize troops and besiege a wave, after all, there are only about 100,000 Ming troops on this road. ”

"Huh? You really say that, can't you win against 200,000 Ming troops, can't you win 100,000? ”

Cao Hong was also bright-eyed and a little more confident. However, the previous defeat of the sour jujube and the Cao army suffered heavy losses, but Cao Hong, for various reasons, did not know the specific situation, and only thought that he was forced to retreat, rather than being defeated head-on, and had to retreat.

Misunderstand?

It's the lag of the message. This becomes a fatal drawback!

Cao Hong thought that the Ming army would not attack the city again, so he relaxed his vigilance, even with his lieutenant general. At night, he encountered a surprise attack, and when Cao Hong got the news and rushed to the city gate, he met the Ming army that had entered the city in the middle of the road.

"It's a disaster, Xiangxian can't hold it!"

Cao Hong knew the strength of the Ming army, otherwise he would not have suppressed the idea of going out of the city to avenge the "eldest brother" because of the adjutant general's persuasion.

"Let's go!"

Cao Hong retreated decisively and ran towards the north gate of the missing one of the three missing ones.

At this moment, Cao Hong forgot that there were 100,000 Ming troops outside the city, and in order to take Xiangxian County, he designed a surprise attack, so it was impossible not to be fully prepared.

As soon as Cao Hong left the city from the north gate, he didn't wait to speed up, and a rain of arrows shot him into a hornet's nest and killed him on the spot.
