Chapter Fifty-Three: Plotting to Conquer

Just when the atmosphere was awkward, Cao Cao suddenly stood up, waved his big hand, put his back behind him, and said loudly: "Okay! Don't be noisy! ”

"Humph!"

Bao Tao looked at Cao Cao, then at Han Yan, snorted angrily, and stopped talking. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Han Yan, on the other hand, shrugged his shoulders indifferently and ignored Bao Tao's provocation. In Han Yan's opinion, no matter how good this Bao Tao is, he is just a child, if it weren't for his brother Bao Xin, who would care who he was? As for his political achievements or something, it is also the ability of the people under him, and it has nothing to do with him. If it was usual, Han Yan would tease him, but now that Cao Cao has spoken, Han Yan is not good at following him anymore.

After everyone was quiet, Cao Cao stood with his hands in his hands, and after glancing at the people present, he turned his eyes to Han Yan who was not far away, and said word by word: "What I want to talk about today is how to march and where to march, and the rest of the things don't need to be said, you guys, understand?" ”

"Hmmm! I see! ”

Nodding, Han Yan replied softly.

And apart from Han Yan, there was no other person to talk to, because even people like Bao Tao who didn't understand things could see that what Cao Cao said was nothing more than aimed at Han Yan, after all, no one present except Han Yan mentioned an opinion contrary to Cao Cao.

As for Han Yan, he had already understood at this time, although everything he did was actually just to deceive himself, but Cao Cao was not the slightest bit different from himself. Both Han Yan and Cao Cao understood that there was no defensible reason to attack Dong Zhuo this time, but some people needed this, and Cao Cao was obviously one of those 'some'. As for what it will develop into in the end and what results will be obtained, Cao Cao actually doesn't care. What he really cared about, Han Yan couldn't guess anymore.

"Now that everyone understands, then I will lead the people of the headquarters to set off first, and according to what I said before, I will go to Chenggao and wait for you. Then the rest of the people were led by Kong Beihai and Ji Beixiang, and met me in the rear, how about it? ”

Although he felt a little guilty about Han Yan in his heart, Cao Cao didn't have the time to pay attention to this, and after scanning everyone, he made a plan.

"So, nature is the best!"

Afraid that his younger brother would make trouble again, Bao Xin quickly stood up and nodded and agreed to Cao Cao's plan.

"It's good, but it's ...... If it's only General Fenwu who is going alone, it doesn't seem appropriate, right? ”

Kong Rong stared at Cao Cao beside him, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart, if he was younger, he should also have such a sharp spirit, right?

"What Kong Beihai said is reasonable, but I don't know who is willing to be this pioneer with me Cao Mengde?"

Turning around and arching his hand towards Kong Rong, Cao Cao then looked at everyone present, but all he saw were dodging eyes, and for a while, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Of course, Kong Rong is no exception. Although it was Kong Rong who first said that it was not appropriate for Cao Cao to go alone, but anyone knows in their hearts that this work to open the way is not easy to do, and there will not be much credit for doing it well, although no one says it if it is not done well, how can it be counted if it has damaged the people and horses of the headquarters? Can the alliance still make up for this part of the lost soldiers? Therefore, no one really wants to come forward at this juncture.

"What? Doesn't anyone want to? ”

The words were relaxed, but it was obvious that the disappointment in Cao Cao's eyes was getting heavier and heavier.

Han Yan looked at Cao Cao's face full of disappointment, couldn't help but shake his head, and stood up, "How can no one want to?" Kong Beihai, give me 3,000 men, and I'll go with General Fenwu! ”

"Well, since you have faith and heart, then do as you say!"

Feeling Han Yan's gaze, Kong Rong didn't say much, three thousand people are the number of people led by Han Yan's headquarters, since this is the case, why should Kong Rong say more?

"Humph! You ......"

Seeing that Han Yan spoke, Bao Tao felt as if something had blocked it, his eyebrows were angry, and he was about to speak, but Bao Xin's eyes had never left Bao Tao since just now, so he was a little slower.

However, Bao Tao was a little slower, but the others did not pause at all, and beside Han Yan, Liu Bei had already stood up. first made a gesture to Cao Cao, and then said: "I am also willing to go with General Fenwu, but there are only more than 100 people under this command, and I hope the general will not blame." ”

"Those who have a heart can go, where does it matter how many people there are?" Cao Cao replied to Liu Bei with a smile, and then turned his gaze to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei behind him, "Moreover, I see that these two people behind you are rare fierce generals, not more than fine, one fierce general can be worth a thousand people!" ”

"Humph! I'm going with you, too! Just as Cao Cao was speaking, Bao Tao had already ignored his brother's obstruction, and shouted loudly, "Brother, you also give me 3,000 men, and I will also do this pioneer thing!" ”

"Haha!"

"Haha!"

I don't know why, just after Bao Tao finished speaking, bursts of laughter rang out in the tent.

In fact, everyone knows that Bao Tao doesn't like Han Yan and wants to be with him, otherwise he wouldn't have wanted to lead 3,000 people like Han Yan so coincidentally. However, maybe only Bao Tao would not have imagined, how could Kong Rong casually hand over his three thousand men to Han Yan? The only possibility is that only these 3,000 centaurs were originally Han Yan's men.

When Han Yan heard everyone's laughter, he naturally understood what was going on, but the matter involved himself, so he just smiled slightly and didn't say anything more.

On the other side, seeing that things have come to this point, Bao Xin can't hold on anymore, if he doesn't agree to his brother's request, this face will be a big shame!

With a horizontal heart, Bao Xin looked at Cao Cao with his hand, and said in a deep voice: "My brother is stubborn, and now he is leading 3,000 men and horses to walk with the general, and I hope the general can take care of him more along the way!" ”

"I don't need him ......"

After hearing Bao Xin's words, Bao Tao instinctively wanted to refuse.

It's just that Bao Xin has already grabbed his hand first and pressed him back to his seat.

Cao Cao, who was standing a little higher, didn't look at Bao Tao, but just looked down at Bao Xin, "Since Jibei has spoken, how can Meng De not obey?" It's just that the march is quite easy to say, but whenever you encounter a battle formation, I'm afraid it will ......"

"If there is a battle formation, it is naturally the bad luck of the younger brother, and it has nothing to do with the general!"

Bao Xin can also understand Cao Cao's worries, it is difficult to say whether Cao Cao can save himself if he really fights, what else can his younger brother rely on? It's just that if you don't agree to this, I'm afraid that people won't take care of Bao Tao on the march, and in desperation, Bao Xin can only say so.

"In that case, please go back and reorganize the army!" As he spoke, Cao Cao paused for a moment, glanced twice outside the tent, and then continued: "Before the middle of the day, we will set off!" ”

"Good!"

After answering, Han Yan nodded and turned around and walked out.

Han Yan is not the same as Liu Bei, the latter has only more than 100 people, and he can start with a little tidying up, but Han Yan has 3,000 people, and it is not so simple to pull out the camp.

Walking back to his camp, Hu Min looked at Han Yan with a gloomy face and walked in without saying a word, and immediately greeted him, and greeted him: "Lord, are you back?" ”

"Hmm!" It was Han Yan, who was irritable in his heart, subconsciously agreed after hearing Hu Min's words, then stopped, glanced at Hu Min, and ordered: "You go, let Sun Guan and them all come to see me!" ”

"All here? That...... What about Chen Gong? ”

After listening to Han Yan's order, Hu Min instinctively hesitated, after all, Chen Gong was not considered Han Yan's subordinate now.

"Chen Gong?" Han Yan, who was about to get up and leave after speaking, was stunned for a moment after hearing Hu Min's words, followed by a deep groan, and said, "Let him come over!" ”

After speaking, Han Yan walked in the direction of his tent.

These days, Han Yan actually likes Chen Gong more, although it is said that the plan is slower than Hu Min, but the plan he came up with after thinking about it is indeed much more perfect than the plan proposed by Hu Min. As long as there is no problem with the brain, they should appreciate Chen Gong more, but I don't know why, Han Yan always feels that the other party gives him a feeling of being separated. Especially after seeing Cao Cao in this Chen Palace yesterday, Han Yan could clearly feel Chen Gong's appreciation for Cao Cao.

Although it is said that the relationship between Han Yan and Cao Cao is good, the current Cao Cao is no longer the Cao Mengde who talked about everything with Han Yan at the beginning. Therefore, Han Yan's heart was still quite annoyed about Chen Gong's attitude. But no matter what, although Chen Gong had been close to him before, he was still Qingzhou Thorn Shi Jiao and his subordinates. And now Han Yan and Kong Rong have 3,000 people, and the remaining 4,000 people are all under the control of Chen Palace, so they are also cut off from other methods to subdue Chen Palace.

Shaking his head slightly, Han Yan entered his tent, and not long after, Huang Zhong, Sun Guan, Chen Gong and others walked in together.

Huang Zhong naturally stood beside Han Yan, while Sun Guan, Chen Gong and the others sat on both sides, waiting for Han Yan to speak.

After everyone sat down, Chang Feng couldn't help it at first, and shouted, "Lord, what are you calling us to do?" Ready to get involved? ”

"Yes and no." Han Yan took a deep breath and said, "I just discussed with Kong Beihai and the others just now, the coalition army will not move lightly, but will send 30,000 people to Chenggao first. ”

"Thirty thousand? Who else but us? ”

Fang Cai didn't have time to ask in detail, at this time, hearing what Han Yan said, Hu Min couldn't help frowning, after all, 30,000 people compared to Dong Zhuo's more than 100,000 troops, there is really nothing to compare.

"In addition to us, there are 5,000 people from my brother, 5,000 people from Chen Liutaishou's Wei Zi Command, and 10,000 people from Jibei Minister Bao Xin. A total of 30,000 men went to Chenggao. After saying some basic information, Han Yan then changed his face to a sad face, and then said: "Although it is said that there are a total of 30,000 people, someone must take the lead, my brother will go first, and I and Bao Tao, the younger brother of Bao Xin, the prime minister of the northern part of the country, will each lead 3,000 people to accompany them, and the remaining 20,000 people will follow." ”

"What? Are we going to take the lead? Lord, this is not good! ”

Yin Li's mind turned quickly, but he first understood the danger here, and spoke first to dissuade Han Yan.

However, without waiting for Yin Li to say more, Han Yan had already waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "I didn't call you here to ask what you mean, I just want to tell you that we are going to set up camp before the middle of the day, and you have to arrange it earlier!" ”

"But this ......"

Seeing that Han Yan was so resolute, although Yin Li's heart was full of unwillingness, he didn't dare to say anything, so he could only sigh helplessly.

"I said, isn't it just the lead? What's the matter, if you want me to say, I'm not afraid that Dong Zhuo has many people, but I'm afraid that there are few others, and it's not enough for me to kill that it's trouble! ”

Chang Xuan, who was on the side, raised his hand and patted Yin Li's shoulder, and shouted loudly.

"Alright, you two don't make trouble!" Sun Guan slapped Chang Yan's hand, scolded the two of them, and then turned to look at Han Yan, "Since the lord has decided, we naturally don't have much to say, but we don't have much grain and grass left, I don't know ......what to do next."

"The matter of grain and grass is naturally prepared by them, what we have to do is to occupy the city first, and we don't care about the rest."

Facing Sun Guan's question, although Han Yan had no bottom in his heart, he was not very worried, no matter what, it was impossible not to give grain and grass to the vanguard coalition, not to mention that Cao Cao was there to stand up?

"In this case, then we have no problem."

Seeing that Han Yan was so determined, Sun nodded and stopped talking.

"Since you're all right, let's ......"

Seeing that no one was talking, Han Yan wanted to stand up as soon as he pressed the table and let everyone do their own things.

But before Han Yan could speak, Chen Gong, who was sitting on the side, spoke, "Young Master, you said that you want to lead 3,000 people, so what about the 4,000 people on my side?" ”

"Your four thousand men? Naturally, they followed Kong Beihai and they went together! Now there are 10,000 pioneers, and if there are another 4,000, the pioneers will account for half, isn't this a mess? Waving his hand impatiently, Han Yan no longer paid attention to Chen Gong, and instead looked at Sun Guan and the others, "Since it's okay, you guys should go their separate ways, pull out the camp as soon as possible, and before the middle of the day, it must be completed!" ”

"Yes!"

Sun Guan and the others clasped their fists together, agreed, and then turned around and walked out of the camp tent to arrange things.

As for Chen Gong, after taking a deep look at Han Yan, he didn't say anything more, and left with Sun Guan and the others.

The army is very troublesome, but it is also simple to say that it is simple. Han Yan doesn't have to worry about the food and grass, as long as he waits for his subordinates to pack up their things for the march, they can set off.
