Chapter 17: First Encounter with Cao Cao
"Now that the Yellow Turban is powerful, and the water surrounding this Changshe is impassable, what strategy does this little general have to break the enemy?" After entering the city, Huangfu Song couldn't wait to ask.
"There's no rush to this." Xiang Han shook his head, although it is feasible to burn down the Changshe, but it also needs to use the wind, and now it is just about to enter the summer, and the northwest wind is still a little rare, so Xiang Han will say this.
"Not in a hurry? Why not rush? You can't do that! Before Xiang Han's words were finished, Huangfu Song couldn't help it.
"Hehe, General Huangfu don't be impatient, listen to me in detail." Xiang Han smiled, Huangfu Song was such an impatient, which could be seen from the fact that he didn't even let him drink saliva as soon as he entered the city and began to ask about the strategy of breaking the enemy.
"You say, you say." Huang Fu Song realized that maybe he was really in a hurry, so he suppressed his eagerness.
"That's right, I have a strategy to break the enemy, but it's just that the time is not ripe now!" Xiang Han said slowly.
"Not ripe? Why is that? Huangfu Song was puzzled, and didn't understand what Xiang Han meant by this.
"Yes......"
"Report!"
Xiang Han was just about to open his mouth to explain something, when a soldier broke in directly.
"What's the matter?" Huangfu Song's tone was a little impatient.
"General Qiyu, there is an army outside the city, asking to see General Huangfu." The soldier said.
"The army?" Huangfu Song was slightly stunned, "Do you know who is the surname of the person who is the leader?" ”
"General Qiyu, the general at the head calls himself Cao Cao!" The soldier replied after a moment's thought.
Cao Cao!
Huangfu Song was nothing after hearing this name, but Xiang Han was a little excited, he was finally able to meet Cao Cao, this capable minister of the world, the hero of the troubled times!
"I'll take a look!" Huangfu Song nodded, and his heart was also happy, at the beginning of the siege of the Changshe before, he went to the emperor to ask for help, this Cao Cao should be the reinforcements sent by the emperor!
Huangfu Song left, and Zhu Jun also left.
"Let's go check it out!" Xiang Han stood up.
The rest of the people also followed Xiang Han and left, and went to greet Cao Cao together.
When he left the city, he saw a team of 5,000 people, neatly lined up outside the city, and the leader immediately jumped off his horse after seeing Huangfu Song and saluted Huangfu Song.
"Hahaha, Mengde, Mengde, you are here!" Huangfu Song laughed and patted Cao Cao's shoulder.
"General Huangfu, it's too late!" Cao Cao smiled apologetically.
Here, since he saw Cao Cao, Xiang Han has been looking at Cao Cao, he is not tall, more than a head shorter than a man like Guan Yu Zhang Fei, who is more than one meter nine or even more than two meters. According to Xiang Han's estimate, Cao Cao's height did not exceed one meter seven.
With a white face and long beard, small eyes, but bright and bright, and good facial features, in addition to his height, he can be regarded as a handsome guy.
"Who is this......?" Seeing that Xiang Han had been staring at him, Cao Cao was a little puzzled, so he immediately asked.
"Hehe, let me introduce, this little general's name is Xiang Han, and his brother Zhang Fei has just picked two generals of the enemy in a row, and his bravery is extraordinary! They are the rebels of their own organization, and they have come to help the court quell the rebellion! Huangfu Song opened his mouth to introduce.
"It turned out to be General Xiang Han, disrespectful and disrespectful." Cao Cao saluted Xiang Han.
"I can't call the general, I'm just a grass people!" Xiang Han shook his head and returned to Cao Cao.
"Haha, what's wrong with the grass people? If you make a meritorious service, Your Majesty will lose your name as a general? Cao Cao said disdainfully, and at the same time, he also looked Xiang Han up and down, and then nodded.
After entering the city, sit down again.
"General Huangfu, Brother Xiang, what were you talking about before?" Cao Cao asked curiously.
"Yes, yes, the little general, tell me quickly, how should this yellow scarf be broken?" Huang Fu Song then remembered that they were talking about how to defeat the Yellow Turban Army just now!
"Brother Xiang already has a strategy to break the enemy?" Cao Cao glanced at Xiang Han in surprise.
"Xiang Han's word Zimo, if General Cao doesn't dislike it, he will call it Zimo!" Xiang Han waved his hand and said.
"That Zimo don't shout at General Cao, just call me Brother Meng De!" Cao Cao said with a smile.
"Okay, Brother Meng De, I did come up with a strategy to break the enemy, but I still have something." Xiang Han smiled slightly, pretending to be mysterious.
"Something short? What's worse? Huangfu Song and Cao Cao asked at the same time.
"Northwest wind!" Xiang Han said.
???
Cao Cao and Huangfu Song were a little confused, and they didn't know what Xiang Han meant at all.
"General Huangfu, Brother Meng De, you come with me!" Xiang Han got up and led the two to the top of the city.
"You look at the Yellow Turban Army, camping according to the grass, it is not yet the rainy season, it is a dry climate, if you put a fire at this time, wouldn't you want to burn the Yellow Turban Army thoroughly?" Xiang Han pointed to the Yellow Turban Camp and spoke.
"Fire attack? Wonderful! Wonderful! Huangfu Song's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he hurriedly clapped his hands and praised.
"So, we're just going to have a northwest wind now!" Cao Cao opened his mouth, and he also admired Xiang Han in his heart for being able to come up with such a strategy, "I remember that General Gongwei seems to be proficient in astrology, right?" Should be able to predict the direction of the wind! ”
"Huh?" Xiang Han was slightly stunned, and turned his head to look at Zhu Jun, who had never said anything, he didn't expect that Zhu Jun would have such skills!
"That's right, how did I forget Gongwei!" Huangfu Song was overjoyed, "Gongwei, don't hide your secrets, hurry up tonight, there will be a northwest wind one day!" Then let's go get ready! ”
"You're asking the right question! The day after tomorrow, there will be a northwesterly wind the night after tomorrow, and an easterly wind tonight and tomorrow night. Zhu Jun smiled mysteriously, and then said slowly.
"Okay, Gongwei, you actually watched it in advance?" Huangfu Song said overjoyed.
"I've had nothing to do these days, so I'll just look at the stars and write down a random note, I didn't expect it to come in handy!" Zhu Jun scratched his head and said with some embarrassment.
"Hahaha!" Everyone burst out laughing.
"Okay, I'll arrange it now, prepare ignition equipment, and as for the specific personnel arrangement, we'll decide the day after tomorrow!" After Huangfu Song finished speaking, he left in a hurry.
"Hehe, Zimo, General Yizhen is such a character, don't be surprised." Cao Cao smiled and explained.
"Being so straightforward is the character of my generation of generals, what's so strange about this?" Xiang Han didn't care at all.
"Let's go for a drink!" Cao Cao smiled, then took Xiang Han's hand, and left the city without saying anything.
However, Xiang Han has been thinking about a question, when he breaks the Yellow Turban of Changshe and goes to Guangzong to confront Zhang Jiao, will he meet Liu Bei?
