Chapter 1137: Practice
Getting closer and closer to Cao Cao, Cao Shuo sped up.
Cao Cao led the team forward unhurriedly.
"Cao Gong, Zirong Gongzi is here." Seeing Cao Shuo, Xun You, who was following Cao Cao, pointed forward.
Cao Cao nodded noncommittally.
When Cao Cao approached, Cao Shuo jumped off his horse and galloped over, made a big salute and said, "The child is late, and I ask my father to forgive me!" ”
"No courtesy." Cao Cao raised his hand and beckoned Cao Pi, who was following him: "Haven't you seen your brother yet?" ”
Cao Pi dismounted, saluted Cao Shuo and said, "I've seen the eldest brother." ”
"Zihuan is here too!" Cao Shuo stepped forward to hold Cao Pi's hand with a smile on his face: "I haven't seen you for many days, but I have grown taller and stronger." ”
Looking at the team that followed Cao Shuo, Cao Cao asked, "Zirong, did you bring a dragon pattern horse?" ”
"Father is really discerning." Cao Shuo said: "It was the dragon pattern rider who accompanied me to greet me. ”
"I've heard for a long time that the dragon pattern is riding, and sure enough, the dragon spirit is fierce." Cao Cao said: "Zirong has such an elite under his command, and he can deal with it calmly when he encounters war." ”
"The dragon pattern ride is just built when children are messing around." Cao Shuo said: "My father's tiger and leopard riders have not yet been sent to the battlefield, and once they are on the battlefield, I am afraid that my dragon pattern riders will be overshadowed." ”
Looking back at Cao Chun, Cao Cao smiled and asked: "Zirong said that his dragon pattern riding is not as good as the tiger and leopard riding, as the leader of the tiger and leopard riding, what does Zihe think?" ”
"Return to Gong Cao." Cao Chun said: "The dragon pattern riding under the command of the prince has been on the battlefield for a long time, and although the tiger and leopard riding has practiced hard, it has not been trained on the battlefield until now, and there must still be some gap with the dragon pattern riding." ”
Although Cao Chun said that the tiger and leopard riding is not as good as the dragon pattern riding, but his words imply that as long as the tiger and leopard riding also experience the battlefield, the dragon pattern riding is definitely not the opponent's meaning.
Of course, it is impossible not to hear the meaning of his words, Cao Shuo smiled slightly and did not speak.
Chen Zhi was not convinced, and stepped forward to salute Cao Cao and said: "The last general Chen Dao, I wish Cao Gong a great success!" ”
"Uncle Chen!" Seeing Chen Dao, Cao Shuo asked with a smile on his face, "How are you doing lately?" ”
"Tuo Cao Gong's clothes, the last general is fine." Chen Zhi first responded, and then said: "I have long heard that the tiger and leopard cavalry under the command of Cao Gong is the elite of the army, and the last general is brave, please ask Cao Gongyun to train together with the tiger and leopard cavalry." ”
"Practicing together?" Cao Cao asked Cao Shuo, "What kind of practice is the common practice that General Chen said?" ”
"My father has only arrived in Shouchun, and the tiger and leopard cavalry soldiers are also tired, so I don't think it's better to practice for the time being." Cao Shuo said: "The so-called joint drill is that two soldiers and horses replace their weapons with wooden sticks wrapped in linen, imitating battlefield fighting drills. Whenever I practice, there will always be some soldiers who get injured......"
"Zihe." Cao Shuo asked Cao Chun: "General Chen proposed to practice together, I wonder if the tiger and leopard riding is sure?" ”
"I'm not 100% sure." Cao Chun said: "But it won't necessarily lose. ”
"Since you are somewhat sure, then pick three hundred people." Cao Cao said: "The number of people is quite fair. ”
Cao Chuncai responded, but Chen Zhi said: "Dare to ask General Cao, how many tigers and leopards are there in the entourage brought this time?" ”
"There are quite a few tiger and leopard riders." Cao Chun said: "To escort Cao Gong to Shouchun, I only brought 800 people. ”
"The end will be a big one." Chen Zhi said: "The dragon pattern cavalry has always won more with less, and I also asked General Cao to order eight hundred tiger and leopard cavalry to fight together. ”
Cao Chun was stunned for a moment, and his face suddenly showed unhappiness.
Cao Shuo said on the side: "Uncle Zhi, no matter how you say it, the tiger and leopard riders are also elite, and there are only three hundred dragon pattern riders, how dare you face eight hundred tiger and leopard riders?" ”
"Childe also knows that the dragon pattern cavalry has always fought with a large number of enemy troops." Chen Zhi still did not change his original intention, and said to Cao Shuo: "If the tiger and leopard ride all come, I dare to lead the dragon pattern to ride forward and kill it." There are many tigers and leopards, and 800 people are just one of them. With the whole army against one, it is actually a dragon pattern riding to bargain. ”
It's good that Chen Zhi didn't say that, but as soon as he said this, Cao Chun was immediately angry.
"General Chen is inevitably too big." Cao Chun said: "Although the tiger and leopard riders have not yet gone through the battlefield, they are also the elite selected from the tiger guards. Three hundred against eight hundred, the dragon pattern ride has no chance of winning. ”
"To win or not to win, you will only know when you fight." Chen to-for-tat.
The two generals came up and made the atmosphere a little bad, and Cao Shuo said to Cao Cao: "Father, in my opinion......"
"I think there is some truth in what Uncle Zhi said." Cao Cao interrupted him and instructed Cao Chun: "Since General Chen fights more with less, Zihe doesn't need to shirk, just find a time to compete." ”
"It's better to choose a day than to hit the day." Cao Chun said: "How about here? ”
"Childe just said that Cao Gong came from afar, and it was very hard along the way." Chen Zhi said: "The escort of the general and the tiger and leopard cavalry soldiers along the way is not light. At this time, the competition is nothing more than bullying the general. It's better to rest for two days, and then find a suitable time for the dragon rider and the tiger and leopard rider to compete with each other. ”
"On the march to fight, is it possible that the enemy army will give us a chance to rest and recuperate?" Cao Chun said: "Since it has been decided, it is better to compete ...... this."
"I think it's better to try again near the Shouchun City Gate." Chen Zhi said: "Although it is just a drill, it is different from ordinary exercises, and there will always be some people who break their muscles and bones. It was a real hassle to carry them back from here. ”
"By General Chen!" Cao Chun agreed.
The two of them choked, and except for Cao Shuo, who seemed to say a few words from it, no one else tried to stop it.
Cao Cao didn't say anything, and even said a few words to fan the flames.
Whether it was the people who followed Cao Cao to Shouchun, or the people brought by Cao Shuo, it could be seen that he wanted to let the tiger and leopard ride practice with the dragon pattern riding.
"We're here to greet my father, and now it's fine." Cao Shuo said: "As soon as the two generals met, they were in a hurry to let each other's soldiers practice. Now that it has been decided, outside Shouchun City, please ask your father to decide the winner himself. ”
Cao Cao said to Cao Pi on the side: "The dragon pattern cavalry under Zirong's command is the elite of the army, and you have to watch this drill carefully later." Since you want to make a contribution, you have to have a meritorious appearance. How to cultivate the elite is exactly what you need to learn right now. ”
"The child is dull, it is better than the eldest brother in case." Cao Pi replied: "When I came to Shouchun, I wanted to ask my eldest brother how to lead troops and how to govern the place. ”
"Go to Shouchun, just outside the city, and watch the tiger and leopard ride and the dragon pattern ride competition." Cao Cao waved his hand and rode forward.
Cao Shuo also jumped on horseback and followed him in the direction of Shouchun.
The dragon rider and the tiger and leopard riders also converged into two parallel columns, but when the soldiers on both sides looked at each other, their expressions inadvertently showed disdain and provocation. 2k reading web
