After staying in Wu County for four or five days, Cao Shuo took the 1,000 Jiangdong troops that Sun Ce had allocated to him on the road.

Before leaving, Zhang Zhao wrote a letter for him to hand over to Ling Cao.

Walking at the front of the team on a war horse, Cao Shuo glanced back.

The officers and men of the Jiangdong Army who followed behind were floating one by one, and because they were too old, some of them were not very stable in walking.

"I've seen shameless, I've never seen someone as shameless as Zhou Gongjin." Cao Shuo took a sip and said, "Give me these soldiers, he is actually embarrassed to say that he is mighty and majestic!" ”

The days of following Cao Shuo have not been long, but he has already figured out his personality, Pang Tong muttered in his heart, although Zhou Yu is shameless, he is still half a cut behind his son.

Cao Shuo accepted the old and weak soldiers, but Zhou Yu didn't think about why he dared to do this!

Attacking Wancheng with these 1,000 people could not have any effect at all except for letting these veterans die in vain.

If Cao Shuo hadn't had a backhand, he would have agreed!

Poor Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were cheated by someone, and they must have thought that they had taken a big advantage!

Cao Shuo led the troops to the battle, and Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, who saw him off, looked at the departing soldiers and horses side by side.

Sun Ce said with a smile: "I don't know how Cao Zirong led this thousand people to break through Anhui City. ”

"He shouldn't be besieging the city." Zhou Yu said: "If I were him, if I arrived in Wu County and had an accident, I would immediately throw away my soldiers and horses and flee back to Xudu." ”

"Do you think Cao Zirong will run?" Sun Ce asked.

"It's impossible for him to do it, and if he forces it, he's stupid." Zhou Yu said: "Cao Zirong is not a stupid person, how could he not know that it is impossible to break the city with this army of soldiers and horses." ”

"100,000 hanging money is not a small amount!" Sun Ce said: "If you can't take Wancheng, he will get this money sooner or later." In my opinion, he will fight when he arrives in Anhui City! ”

Zhou Yu smiled slightly and said to Sun Ce: "No matter what he does, he can't rely on 100,000 hanging money!" ”

"I don't want to pay money, I want Jiangdong to send troops to attack Anhui City, and I want to marry my sister." Sun Ce smiled coldly: "All the good things in the world are all thought of by Cao Zirong!" ”

"He has a military order here, and when he is defeated, he will send someone to Xu Du to ask for money." Zhou Yu said: "The military order signed by the son of the Cao family, presumably Cao Cao is not easy to repay!" ”

"Actually, Cao Zirong can't come, and I will fight in Anhui City sooner or later." Sun Ce said: "Yuan Shu was first defeated by Lu Bu, and a few days ago he was defeated by Cao's army in Qi County. Yuan Shu's army gathered in Shouchun, and the garrison of Anhui City was empty, once it was captured, and then marched to Jingzhou, it would not have to suffer from the idleness of the Yangtze River. ”

"The last time I broke through Anhui City, I heard that there was a family surnamed Qiao, and the two daughters gave birth to the national color Tianxiang." Zhou Yu said: "After Cao Zirong withdraws his army, I can accompany Bo Fu to Wancheng to have a look." ”

"I've also heard of the two women that Gong Jin said." Sun Ce said: "If it is really as beautiful and fragrant as the rumors, it is not impossible for the two of us to marry one!" ”

"How can I be a brother-in-law with Bo Fu?" Zhou Yu said.

"You and I are like brothers, saying these foreign words!" Sun Ce gently patted Zhou Yu's arm.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Sun Ce and Zhou Yu waited for Cao Shuo's defeat, and Cao Shuo, who led a thousand old and weak soldiers, left Wu County with his soldiers.

Far from Anhui City, Cao Shuo ordered to be stationed on the spot.

"Pass the order, I will lead my relatives to explore the road in front, and it may take ten days and half a month to come back." Cao Shuo instructed the guards: "Let the soldiers rest in place, and they must not advance without an order, let alone retreat!" ”

The guards answered the order and went.

After receiving the order, the officers and men of the Jiangdong Army were very puzzled.

After so many years of fighting, I have never heard that the Lord will go to explore the way himself.

Although they were puzzled, the soldiers didn't think much about it and stationed in accordance with the military order.

Leaving the army with Pang Tong, Deng Zhan, Zhu Ao and his guards, Cao Shuo glanced back: "Finally left them behind!" ”

"Childe doesn't plan to take Wancheng?" Deng Zhan asked.

"Take, definitely take!" Cao Shuo said: "Don't talk about taking the city with them, it's impossible to get close to Anhui City." ”

"Childe doesn't plan to take us to take the city." Zhu Ao also said: "Don't forget that you still have a military order with Zhou Gongjin." ”

Cao Shuo didn't respond, Pang Tong said with a smile: "Don't worry, the two of you have already made arrangements." ”

took Pang Tong and others to gallop on horseback.

After walking for most of the day, Cao Shuo stopped.

He instructed the guards: "There is a military camp not far ahead, you bring this letter to ask to see Captain Ling Cao, he read the letter, and he knows what we are doing here." ”

The guard took the letter and hurried the horse away.

Looking at the back of the guards leaving, Deng Zhan asked: "Gongzi didn't lead troops and horses to attack the city, why did he want to find someone else?" ”

"Do you think you can take those people to break through Wancheng?" Cao Shuo said: "Sun Bofu and Zhou Gongjin gave me a trick, wanting to get the benefits of 100,000 yuan from me." How did they know that I was a good man who was diligent and thrifty, how could I watch a large sum of money fall into their hands. ”

"Childe's plan is ......" Deng Zhan still didn't quite understand what kind of calculation Cao Shuo was doing.

Cao Shuo said: "There are only more than 200 defenders in Anhui City, if you want to take this city, you only need to use the fire dance that comes with us, why do we need to go to great lengths to attack the city?" Contact Ling Cao, just because Fire Dance will cause more trouble if he takes the city. I can help them open the gates, but the city must be occupied by the Jiangdong army. ”

After all, Deng Zhan was born as a chivalrous man, and although Cao Shuo explained, he didn't understand it too well.

Zhu Ao said on the side: "Brother Deng, Childe's plan, even if we ask, I don't understand. Whatever Childe says, we can do whatever we do! ”

"Justice is right!" Deng Zhan said: "It's me who asked! ”

He didn't wait long, and Cao Shuo saw the guards galloping over with more than a dozen fast horses.

At first, he was wearing a familiar bronze armor, and when he got closer, he hugged his fists and asked Cao Shuo: "Dare to ask if Zunjia is Cao Zirong's son?" ”

"Exactly!" Cao Shuo asked, "Is Captain Ling here?" ”

"Ling Cao has seen Childe!" Arching his hand again, Ling Cao said: "I have already cut the letter of Gong Zhang, how does Gongzi plan to break the city?" ”

"The city gate will open at midnight today, but Captain Ling will lead the troops into the city." Cao Shuo said: "If the enemy resists, just kill it." ”

"Before the siege of the city, Childe knew that the city gate would open at midnight?" Ling Cao was stunned.

"I've arranged for someone to be in the city." Cao Shuo said: "There are not many of them, so they can only open the city gate secretly, and as for taking Anhui City, they have to lead the troops with Captain Ling." ”

"Childe has already made arrangements, isn't it for giving me credit for sending the scene in vain?" Ling Cao asked.

Cao Shuo smiled and said: "The captain has received credit, the Sun family has taken over Wancheng to control Jingzhou, and the Cao family has also benefited from it, of course I will do such a thing." ”
