Chapter 724: No Forgiveness
"Report! Great news, great news! Good news! ”
"What good news!"
In the past few days, although Cao De has been staying in Dai County, there is no movement, only Ma Chao is leading the cavalry around, but Kebineng still has a headache. Kebi can have a headache how to kill Cao De and Ma Chao. Although Cao De's army was only a third. Kebi can only know from the side he saw back then, that Cao De is not easy to deal with.
Otherwise, now Kebineng is not in Youzhou but in Merging. Although Bingzhou is not very rich, it is much stronger than this Youzhou!
"What's the good news?" Kebi can quickly sit up straight on the throne, but the regret of his figure is a hard injury for Kebi Neng for a lifetime!
"King, the Han army has retreated! The 100,000 Cao troops in Dai County were pushed away, and now only the empty camp remains! ”
"What? The Han army retreated? "Kobi Neng's first reaction after hearing the news was impossible, and then after thinking about it, it is still impossible." Have you read carefully? ”
"Look closely. His subordinates also personally ran into the camp of the Han army to take a look. It is true that there is no one. All gone. "Really gone, really don't lie to you.
After hearing this, Kebi didn't believe it even more. Why, because Kebi can understand Cao De. Today, playing against Cao De has long been expected by Kebineng. As early as a few years ago, after Kebineng unexpectedly met Cao De, Kebineng foresaw that he would have a big battle with Cao De sooner or later, so Kebineng has been paying attention to Cao De and studying Cao De. Therefore, according to Kebineng's understanding, Cao De will not leave so easily. There must be some conspiracy.
Just as Kobi was walking around the tent with his hands behind his back, another soldier came. "King, the steppe wolf attacked our eastern camp just now, and now it has retreated."
"Steppe wolf?" Look at it, what am I talking about, Cao De can't go. If Cao De leaves, this grassland flying wolf will have to leave. He didn't go. So he certainly didn't leave either. So where exactly is he now?
Where is Cao De, to be honest, Cao De doesn't know where he has arrived now. But Cao De knew where his destination was, that was the gateway to Taihang Mountain in Bingzhou, Huguan!
Cao De and Zhang Liao's plan was simple. The Xianbei people can't give up here, but in case the plague comes, it will definitely be too late for such a huge army to retreat together. So, let's separate. Some stayed, and some returned.
And there are too many people left, and they still can't escape the threat of the plague, so there can't be too many people. But there are fewer people, and what they need to face is 300,000 Xianbei people. Three hundred thousand, ten thousand? Twenty thousand? There is not much difference. Therefore, Zhang Liao said boldly: "Don't keep any more people, just Ma Chao will lead the five thousand people." Moreover, the prime minister is gone, Ma Chao and I are here, Xianbei people will definitely be thinking about where the prime minister is going to sneak attack, and they can't guess that the prime minister has returned to Hanzhong. ”
The way of using soldiers is virtual and real.
Cao De is gone, and now only Ma Chao and Zhang Liao are left in Daijun and the five thousand soldiers that Ma Chao brought to the battlefield before.
When Ma Chao knew Zhang Liao and Cao De's plan, Ma Chao smiled at Zhang Liao and said, "Wenyuan." I've heard that you used to be the guard of Yanmen Pass. But you haven't been deep in the grasslands, have you? ”
Zhang Liao was stunned, he grew up in the border pass since he was a child, although he heard a lot about the grassland, but he personally galloped on the endless grassland, Zhang Liao really had never experienced it.
"Then I'll help you fulfill this wish!"
"The whole army listened to the order and immediately checked their outfits. We're going to storm the Xianbei camp! ”
Nine years of Jian'an! A.D. 197, May! Sun Ce, the lord of Jiangdong, successfully incorporated the Shanyue people. In June, a plague broke out in Huiji County, Yangzhou. In July, the plague had begun to spread across the Han Dynasty out of Huiji County.
Nine years of Jian'an, June! Cao De led the Hanzhong army to 34 ends, and the troops were divided into three routes and pointed directly at the Central Plains. In late June, Cao De's 340,000-strong army suddenly retreated from various battlefields. Overnight, the Hanzhong army disappeared without a trace.
In the ninth year of Jian'an, at the beginning of July, Ma Chao, the general of the Hanzhong expedition to the north, and Zhang Liao, the general of the expedition to the east, led 5,000 iron cavalry to attack the Xianbei camp at night. After the massacre in the middle of the night, Ma Chao and Zhang Liao resolutely attacked the Xianbei camp again. When the sun rose, Kebineng, who was in the big tent of the Chinese army, didn't know where Ma Chao and Zhang Liao were. Because, at all times, soldiers come to report that their camp is under attack. For a while, Ke Bi couldn't tell which was Ma Chao's real position.
This battle lasted for nearly a day and a night, and in the end, no one knew where the Han cavalry in the red suit had gone. It's just that when Kobi can receive the casualty report, he is furious. As a result of the battle, Kebineng lost nearly 20,000 Xianbei warriors. Moreover, according to the examination, a large part of the 20,000 people died at the hands of their own people due to their own confusion.
Next, Kebineng searched hard for more than half a month, but Ma Chao and Zhang Liao seemed to have spread their wings and had no trace.
In the ninth year of Jian'an, at the end of July. Liu Bei received an urgent report from Liu Ye. The 160,000-strong army retreated to the east bank of the Wandering Canal. Tightly armed, stick to no battle, like facing a great enemy!
In the same month, Cai Mao, who was also holding his position in Yuzhou, suddenly retreated. Xu Huang and Xiahoudun thought that Cai Mao had been frightened and pursued them overnight. The entire Yuzhou returned to Luoyang again.
At the same time, Cao De's army returned to Hanzhong from various routes. At the same time, Cao De issued a statement: The merchant to whom the Hanzhong household registration belongs should return to Hanzhong before the end of August.
Early August. Cao Cao finally received a report that a large-scale plague had broken out in Yangzhou. Moreover, the plague has spread to Guangling County in Xuzhou and Changsha County and Guiyang County in Jingzhou.
In mid-August, Kebineng, who was still looting in Youzhou, finally got the news of Ma Chao. Ma Chao and Zhang Liao had already led 3,000 men to break through into the prairie. As of the time of writing, tens of thousands of Xianbei people had been massacred by Ma Chao and Zhang Liao.
In that battle that day, although Ma Chao and Zhang Liao achieved unprecedented glorious records, two thousand Han knights still fell under the scimitars of the Xianbei people. And the remaining 3,000 people and Zhang Liao, under the leadership of Ma Chao, have already broken into the rear of the Xianbei people.
On August 30, Huguan, Hangu Pass, Zhushuidao, Yufuguan and other border checkpoints and cities were stationed with a large number of troops, and on the 30th, all the gates leading to Han China rumbled and were tightly locked.
It is rumored that with the closure of Hangu Pass, there were still a large number of Hanzhong merchants who did not enter the city. A riot broke out in the caravanserais, which were blocked from the gates. But when the sharp arrows were aimed at them, everyone closed their mouths in unison.
"Put!"
At the sound of an order, there was an additional isolation zone composed of arrows in front of the Hangu Pass.
"The prime minister has an order, all those who rush through the customs will be killed! The prime minister has an order, and those who dare to cross the land of arrows will be killed! ”
There is no mercy for the two killings, for the common people, it is the first time that Cao De has such an order. And this time, it was also necessary!
