Chapter 265: Cao Ang is captured
"General Sun, it has been found out that Cao Cao's army is camped in the valley thirty miles away. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"Okay, pass on my order, the whole army buries the pot to make rice, after eating, the army will leave the baggage here, send a team of soldiers to guard it, and the rest of the people will follow me to attack Cao Ying at night."
"Yes!"
Sun Ce has enjoyed the glory and wealth since he took refuge in Su Chen, and it can be said that Su Chen is completely no different from his own son to him, but the more this is the case, the more urgent he is to make meritorious contributions in his heart, otherwise, he feels sorry for Su Chen's cultivation.
Since the battle with Cao's army, Sun Ce led the wolf cavalry and made a lot of contributions, among which in the occupation of Yanzhou County, Sun Ce has a good interpretation of what is called the mobility of cavalry, but those are small credits, Sun Ce can't see it at all, he knows that the big fish that the lord can't forget is Cao Cao, and he will catch this big fish tonight.
"General, you're ready."
"Okay, brothers, follow me, you must capture Cao Cao alive tonight, drive!"
Thirty miles of land, it seems very far away, but the wolf cavalry warriors are equipped with special war horses that have been strengthened twice by forging bones, which can travel thousands of miles in a day and eight hundred at night, which is second only to the existence of heavenly horses.
Therefore, only thirty miles of land is nothing for the wolf rider, Cao Cao's soldiers were very tired after days of pursuit, and at this time they learned the news that they were about to go south to join Liu Biao, it can be said that most of the soldiers relaxed their vigilance.
When Sun Ce led people to kill, the soldiers guarding the gate outside the gate staggered, where was there any spirit, despite this, Sun Ce would not be merciful to the enemy, he took the lead, jumped forward, cut the gate with a knife, and then stepped in, shouting: "Kill!!! ”
"Kill !!!"
The two thousand wolf cavalry soldiers were like tigers entering the flock, and after entering the camp, they began to set fire, and after a while, the camp of the Cao army had been burned to the company's camp.
Cao Cao was suspicious by nature, he did not live with the army, but took his guards to set up a few tents on the mountainside, and when he saw that the valley had become a sea of fire, he immediately slipped away with Xun Yu and others.
"It's not good, father, the eldest brother is still in the barracks."
"What?" Hearing Cao Pi's words, Cao Cao asked in surprise, "Why is Zi Yu in the military camp?" Wasn't the barracks garrisoned by General Li Dian? ”
"It's the eldest brother who is a little worried, so he went to patrol the barracks, he said that it was for his father to stabilize the morale of the army."
"Hey!" Cao Cao really regretted not being at the beginning, he never expected Cao Ang to be below, looking at the formation below, he didn't know how many enemy troops came, and they were afraid that this little bit of men and horses was not enough for the other party to stuff their teeth.
At the critical time, Xun Yu persuaded him: "Lord, the overall situation is important, we must evacuate immediately." ”
Cao Cao looked at the raging fire burning in the valley, then at Cao Pi, and finally gritted his teeth and ordered: "Order, withdraw!" ”
Fortunately, Cao Cao escaped quickly, and by the time Sun Ce killed the upper half of the mountain, Cao Cao had already lost his trace, and the roots here were deep and dense, and it was night, which was not conducive to the cavalry search, so he had to give up.
"Report, general, we have captured two generals of Cao Jun, one of whom is Cao Cao's eldest son Cao Ang."
"Oh? Cao Ang was actually caught? Bring it on! ”
After a while, Cao Ang and Li Dian were brought up, Sun Ce ignored Li Dian, but looked at the young general and said, "You are Cao Ang?" ”
"Yes, I am my father's eldest son, Cao Ang!" Cao Ang was filial at the age of twenty, intelligent and courageous and modest, and was loved by Cao Cao, although he was captured by the enemy, he did not panic.
Sun Ce saw that he was neither humble nor arrogant, and his good feeling in his heart increased greatly, "Speaking of which, we should also be brothers, your father and my father were both righteous brothers, but in the troubled times, each is its own master, before the war, the lord and Cao Gong have an agreement, no matter who is defeated, they will not hurt the other party's family, so you can rest assured, there is no problem with your safety." ”
Cao Ang didn't seem to appreciate it, he glanced at Sun Ce, and said: "I am my father's eldest son, and now I can't accompany my father through thick and thin, and I can't take care of my younger brothers and sisters, I am not a qualified son, nor is I a qualified brother, for me, what is the joy of life, and what is the pain of death, General Sun can take my head back and hand it over." ”
"Do you want to give Cao Gong more time to escape, I have to say, Cao Ang, I appreciate you very much, if it weren't for the war, we might have become brothers, okay, you don't have to say more, your life is not up to me, I will take you back to see the lord."
After Sun Ce finished speaking, he turned his head to Li Dian and said, "As for you, Li Dian, are you willing to surrender to my lord?" ”
"Only Li Dian who died in battle, Li Dian who did not surrender, loyal ministers do not serve the two masters, you want to kill or chop, listen to the respect!" Li Dian is well aware of righteousness, does not compete with others, advocates learning and nobility and elegance, respects erudition, and is known as an elder in the army. Li Dian has the style of an elder, and he is also loyal to Cao Cao.
"What a loyal man, in that case, I will fulfill your wish, come to someone!"
"In!"
"Take Li Dian down and cut it!"
"General Sun, slow down!" Sun Ce was just about to kill Li Dian, but Cao Ang suddenly stopped him.
Sun Ce looked at Cao Ang meaningfully and asked, "What?" Do you want to intercede with him? ”
"Yes!" Cao Ang said bluntly: "General Manchester City once taught me the art of war, and he is my teacher, so please ask General Sun to spare General Manchester City's life, and the general will kill me if he wants to, I just hope that the general will not touch General Manchester City." ”
"Childe, I..." Li Dian was moved when he heard that Cao Ang was going to die on his behalf.
"Manchester City doesn't need to say much, you and I are also teachers and friends, you are loyal to your father, you have done your duty, Aung knows that the general's family still has young sons and old mothers, once the general dies, the orphans and mothers in the family will have no one to take care of, this is not what Aung wants to see, so Manchester City generals must not ask for death."
"It's... Ay!!! Li Dian let out a long sigh and lowered his arrogant head.
"A good Cao Zixuan, today my Sun Ce will give you a face, Li Dian will not kill, bring it back and let the lord fall, but for the foolish and loyal people, although my lord respects, but will never show mercy to his subordinates, if Zi Xuan is really good for the Manchester City general, you might as well persuade him to surrender to my lord, my lord attaches great importance to talents, Manchester City generals will never be discriminated against after surrendering, after the surrender of General Yu Ban, the lord has appointed him as the captain of Pengcheng, which can be seen, you think about it."
"Thank you General Sun, Ziyu understands!"
"Well, it's good if you understand, in the future, you will call a certain Bofu, we are enemies on the battlefield, but outside the battlefield, we can't be brothers, I think even if the lord knows, he will appreciate my approach."
"Ang also often heard his father mention Yanhou's demeanor at home, but his father, hey!!"
In the troubled times, the strong are respected, it is really fate to make people, Sun Ce and Cao Ang are so similar.
