Volume 1 The First Entry into the Three Kingdoms Chapter 99 The Yellow Turban of the First Peace (2)
It is said that Cao Cao inadvertently walked to the place where the camp was cooking, and happened to meet a few men who were reprimanding a young man, Cao Cao asked the reason and suddenly had a plan in his heart, turned around and ran towards the place where Huangfu Song was.
Several men who were kneeling on the ground saw Cao Cao run away without saying a word, and they looked at each other and didn't know what to do.
After kneeling for a while, one of the thin people with sharp beaks and monkey cheeks couldn't resist the cold air coming from the ground, and couldn't help but ask, "General Cao, what's wrong?" We can't get up yet? ”
The eldest of them thought for a while and said, "If you don't get up, who will cook for the soldiers, and when the soldiers don't have anything to eat, we will have to move our heads!" With that, the man stood up on his own.
When everyone saw that the men and daughters had taken the lead in standing up, they also stood up one after another.
"Why don't you go and add firewood, the pot will be cold for a while, and the rice will not be cooked!" The captain kicked the young man and scolded.
The young man did not dare to slack off when he heard this. Hurriedly ran to the side of the haystack to get firewood.
......
When Cao Cao ran to the mansion, he happened to meet Zhu Jun who was running away from the mansion.
The two looked at each other, and Zhu Jun saw Cao Cao's anxious appearance, thinking that something bad had happened, and hurriedly asked, "What happened, Meng De was so flustered?" ”
Seeing that it was Zhu Jun, Cao Cao made a salute and hurriedly said, "My lord, can the old general Huangfu be in the room?" ”
Looking at Cao Cao's appearance, Zhu Jun knew that there was something urgent and didn't dare to ask more, so he nodded hurriedly and replied, "Yes, I also just came out of the old general Huangfu, and I was about to call you over to discuss matters!" ”
Although Cao Cao had doubts in his heart when he heard this, he didn't ask any more, and hurriedly said, "Come with me, adult!" Then he hurriedly ran to the room where Huangfu Song usually stayed.
Seeing Cao Cao in such a hurry, Zhu Jun didn't dare to stay longer, and hurriedly chased after Cao Cao.
"General, Cao Cao, the commander of the lower official cavalry, has something to report to the general!"
Although Cao Cao was anxious at this time, in the face of Huangfu Song, who was several notches higher than his official position, Cao Cao still didn't do anything and pushed the door in.
As soon as Cao Cao's words fell, he heard a powerful reply from inside.
"Come in!"
Hearing this, Cao Cao hurriedly pushed open the door and walked in, and at this time, Zhu Jun in the back also arrived and followed into the house.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw Huangfu Song sitting on a chair in the room wearing armor, and the table next to him was not tea, but a war knife.
Seeing Cao Cao and the others coming in, Huangfu Song looked up at the two, his face was expressionless, but his eyes were full of war.
"I just asked Gongwei to go out and call the generals to come to discuss the matter, but I didn't expect you to come so soon!"
Hearing this, Zhu Jun informed Huangfu Song of the incident he had just met Cao Cao in front of the door.
After listening to Zhu Jun's words, Huangfu Song looked at Cao Cao with interest.
"Why is Meng De in such a hurry to find me?"
Seeing this, Cao Cao hurriedly replied, "General, the official just passed by the place where the soldiers were cooking, and suddenly came up with a good plan to break the enemy!" ”
"Oh?"
As soon as they heard Cao Cao say that they had thought of a good way to break the enemy, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun couldn't help but glance at each other, with a strange look in their eyes.
After the two glanced at each other, Huangfu Song did not rush to ask Cao Cao about his good strategy to break the enemy, but asked Cao Cao meaningfully, "Since Meng De thought of the strategy from the man, could it be said that the plan in Meng De's heart is related to fire?" ”
Hearing this, Cao Cao couldn't help but be surprised.
"How did the general know?"
Seeing Cao Cao admit that his strategy was related to fire, Huangfu Song and the others couldn't help but show a playful expression.
Seeing the two of them looking at him with a smile, Cao Cao felt furious in his heart, thought for a moment and asked, "Two generals, what is this?" ”
Seeing Cao Cao ask, Huangfu Song and the others couldn't help laughing.
"Meng De, you don't know, I just rushed out to call you here to discuss with you the enemy's strategy, just now I and the old general Huangfu also want to deal with a good strategy to break the enemy, which is also related to fire, hahaha~"
After Zhu Jun finished speaking, he couldn't help but laugh twice, and Huangfu Song on the side also showed a smile on his face.
"Xuande talk about your strategy and see if it's the same as the two of us!" Huangfu Song smiled as if an elder looked at his junior, and there was a lot of praise in his eyes.
When Cao Cao heard this, he straightened out his thoughts, and then said respectfully to the two, "The art of using soldiers lies in strange changes, the northwest wind has been frequent in recent days, the grass and trees are dry, and it is easy to catch fire due to the wind, and the yellow turban anti-thieves are camped according to the grass, if our army is set on fire by the night, the thieves must be frightened and scattered, at this time, our army is divided into troops to attack, surrounded on all sides, and the yellow turban can be broken!" ”
"Good! This plan coincides with my plan and Gongwei's plan! Huangfu Song slapped the table hard and shouted.
"Meng De, Gongwei, you two quickly go to the Wentai and they call this discussion!"
"No!" The two of them hurriedly responded, then turned and ran out of the room.
Less than a quarter of an hour later, more than ten people including Sun Jian and Zhang Miao came to the mansion one after another, and at this time, Huangfu Song had already arrived in the hall where everyone usually deliberates.
Seeing that everyone was coming, Huangfu Song told everyone what Cao Cao said.
"Meng De's plan is with me and Gong Weiyi, I don't know if you have any other good ideas, you might as well say it, let's discuss it together!"
When everyone heard this, they discussed it below.
"Old general, this plan can break Zhang Liang, but it is really difficult to completely destroy this thief, after this incident, if the yellow turban resurrects as reconciliation?" Zuojun Sima Sun Jian took the lead in getting up and asking questions.
Without waiting for Huang Fu Song to explain, a general under Huang Fu Song on the side stood up and retorted, "Our army has been confronting the thieves for many days, and the thieves are powerful. ”
After this person finished speaking, another person stood up and retorted: "Serious illness requires fierce medicine, there is a good way to break the enemy, you should take advantage of the victory to pursue and annihilate the thief in one fell swoop!" ”
When the man heard this, he wanted to refute, but he saw the emperor on the throne and Song Song said in a loud voice: "The Yellow Turban Rebellion has been going on for several months, and at this moment Zhang Jiao is outside is an opportunity for us to destroy the enemy, if we don't take advantage of this to exterminate this group of Yellow Turbans, I am afraid that there will be no such opportunity in the future!" ”
Seeing that Huangfu Song said so, everyone didn't dare to refute it anymore.
Huangfu Song looked at everyone, and finally looked at Sun Jian and said, "I have a plan to destroy the enemy in my heart, just look at the battle tonight!" ”
When the people heard this, they hurriedly got up.
"Please give the old general's order!"
......
Just when Huangfu Song was transferring troops to point generals, in a dry grass field a few miles outside the city.
"General, I don't know when General Tiangong will come back? Are we just going to avoid the war like this? ”
In Zhang Liang's tent, Bo Cai, the former commander of the Oriental Yellow Turban Army, and Zhang Liangzheng were discussing the military situation while inspecting the military camp.
Seeing that Bo asked about this, Zhang Liang snorted twice and replied, "Hmph~ Didn't you see that the old thief of Huangfu had begun to lose his breath?" In my opinion, there must be a shortage of food and grass in Changshe City, as long as I wait a few more days, I expect them to abandon the city and flee!" At that time, we can annihilate them in one fell swoop if we attack again, and then there will be no Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, I see who in the court can still stop us! ”
Bo Cai on the side hurriedly nodded when he heard this, and praised: "What General Rengong said is true!" ”
Zhang Liang ignored Bo Cai's flattery, turned around and said righteously, "At this time, my eldest brother is not here, we still need to be cautious, to prevent the old thief of Huangfu and their dogs from jumping off the wall in a hurry!" ”
Hearing this, Bo Cai hurriedly said yes.
The two walked for a while and came to the place where the army had stored grain and grass.
Looking at the mountains of grain and grass, Zhang Liang called the grain official who managed the grain and grass,
"How many days will there be enough food and grass in the army?" Zhang Liang asked with a dignified expression.
"Back to the general, the grain and grass in the army can at least be enough for more than a month!" The grain officer replied respectfully
Zhang Liang nodded, then looked at Bo Cai and said, "General Bo, tomorrow you need to take some men and horses to the nearby gentry to ask for some grain and grass, let's be prepared to fight the enemy for a long time!" ”
It is said that Zhang Liang and others are anti-thieves, and the grain and grass equipment will naturally not be supported by local officials, so Zhang Liang and others went to the homes of nearby gentry to grab grain as soon as they had the opportunity.
At this time, all the gentry near Yingchuan had already been robbed by Zhang Liang and others, making everyone complain everywhere, hoping that everyone would be exterminated by the imperial army.
......
Late that night, a strong wind suddenly rose, the sky was covered with dark clouds, the night was like ink, and it was so black that it could be said that he could not see his fingers, and he could not even see a little starlight.
The weather was not good, and people's mood was also worse, and Zhang Liang and the others went to bed early after dinner. Only a few groups of soldiers on night patrol were still active in the entire battalion.
On the other hand, in the city of Changshe, there is indeed a murderous atmosphere in the palace.
At this time, Huangfu Song was wearing armor and a long knife at his waist, and he was standing on the steps in the courtyard of the palace.
At this time, the palace was brightly lit, and Zhu Jun, Cao Cao and others were also dressed in armor and were standing neatly under Huangfu Song. The light of the torches on the side swayed in the strong wind, and the light and darkness of the fire reflected on everyone's faces, which suddenly made everyone look hideous.
"Where is Mengde?" Huangfu Song shouted to the crowd.
As soon as the words fell, Cao Cao, who was standing behind Zhu Jun, stepped forward quickly and hugged his fists and said, "The end will be!" ”
"I order you to take 10,000 soldiers and horses to immediately lurk behind the enemy's rear, and when you see the fire on the city, immediately ignite the dry grass behind the enemy camp to echo with me, and immediately lead troops to ambush when the enemy army escapes from the camp!"
"Order!" After speaking, Cao Cao turned around and returned to Zhu Jun.
"Guo Dian listens to orders!"
Guo Dian, the general under Huangfu Song, hurriedly stood up like Cao Cao when he heard this.
"Please command, General!"
"I order you to take 10,000 soldiers and horses to the northeast of the enemy army immediately, and when you see the fire on the city, immediately set fire to the dry grass on the left flank of the enemy camp, and immediately lead troops to ambush when the enemy army escapes from the camp!"
"The last will be ordered!"
"Yan Zhong and Liang Yan listen to orders!"
"The last general!" The two responded in unison.
"I order you two..."
After a while, except for one in the southwest corner of the thief camp, people and horses were arranged in all directions to Huangfu Song.
In the end, Huangfu Song looked at Zhang Miao, the only one behind Cao Cao who was not clicked, and shouted.
"General Zhang Miao listens to orders!"
Chen Liutai, who was behind Cao Cao, saw that his name was finally called, and hurriedly stood up.
"The last general!"
"I order you to take 5,000 soldiers and horses to lurk in the southwest corner of the enemy, and when the enemy army escapes from the camp, you can come out to meet the attack, but remember to be sure to leave with one touch and lead the enemy to the direction of Yangzhai!"
"The last will be ordered!"
At this time, except for Sun Jian, who didn't know where he went, everyone was assigned the task of killing the enemy.
......
In Chen Liucheng, Liu Yi got up in the middle of the night to release the water, and while releasing the water Liu Yi looked up at the sky, looking at the dark night sky, listening to the wind of ghosts crying and wolf howling blowing in his ears, Liu Yi couldn't help but sigh.
"The moon is dark and the wind is high, killing people and setting fire to the sky!"
