Ye Mo didn't stay in Linzi County for a few days, so he went to the dock with Cao Cao. Along with them, there are still a number of military generals and strategists in Qingzhou, except for those who have urgent matters to deal with, the rest of them all follow.

In addition to these officials and the 3,000 heavy infantry led by Cao Ren, there were also Cao Cao's personal tiger guards accompanying him to protect him.

In Ye Mo's previous life, Cao Cao's tiger guard was first trained by Dian Wei, and after Dian Wei died in battle, it was led by Xu Chu. But in this time and space, Dian Wei and Xu Chu, one followed Ye Mo, and the other was on an errand under the Son of Heaven.

In this life, the tiger guards under Cao Cao are led by Cao Hong. Although there was no such thing as Cao Hong's sacrifice of horses in this life, in the process of taking Qingzhou, Cao Hong also suffered a lot of injuries in order to save Cao Cao.

After everyone arrived at the dock, Cao Cao also temporarily moved the Qingzhou administrative office to the dock. After all, those strongmen don't know when they will be able to reach this dock, if they don't come in the past ten years, Cao Cao won't be able to deal with Qingzhou's government affairs for ten years?

After waiting for more than ten days, I really didn't wait for those strongmen. Ye Mo can stay in the dock at this time, and Cao Cao can handle government affairs in the dock, so he is not in a hurry. But Wei Zhongdao, at this time, he was afraid that the strong man would not come, so he almost didn't burn incense and pray.

It was Cao Ren, but during this time, he was seizing the time to train soldiers, for fear that these soldiers would be overwhelmed by then.

"Mr. Guiyi, you have been happy these days, take a walk here, take a look, I wonder if Mr. has seen something?" After Cao Cao dealt with a day's official business, he found Ye Mo, who had nothing to do, and said jokingly.

Cao Cao also understood. This dock originally belonged to Ye Mo. And. When Ye Mo built this dock. I also told Cao Cao that Cao Cao agreed.

It's just that later, because of some misunderstandings, Xiahoudun took away the dock. At this time, Cao Cao saw that Ye Mo was circling in this dock all day long, so he naturally joked that Ye Mo wanted to take this dock back.

However, although it is a misunderstanding to say that this dock was taken, it is still unlikely that Cao Cao would really be asked to return it. Dockyard of this magnitude. If Ye Mo took it back, where should Cao Cao's army be placed at that time?

Ye Mo heard the joke in Cao Cao's words, and said: "Meng De, you don't know, in the past few days, Ye has really seen something. ”

Cao Cao was just joking, but he didn't want Ye Mo to answer like this. Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted and asked, "Then I don't know what Mr. Guiyi has seen?" ”

"The original dockyard didn't have that big pile of rocks." After Ye Mo glanced at Cao Cao, the corners of his mouth also showed a sly smile. Then he pointed to the pile of big stones piled up outside with his right hand, and said lightly.

The pile of stones. Naturally, it was bombarded with catapults by warships from those island countries. The stones were carried to one place, not thrown out.

After hearing Ye Mo's answer, Cao Cao didn't know how embarrassed he was. Originally, they robbed this dock, after all, Ye Mo was too lazy to pursue it. However, as soon as the front foot snatched the dock, the back foot was beaten. Even if you are beaten, you still have to ask the former owner to help.

This embarrassment is simply impossible to mention. It was Cao Cao who was able to communicate with others as good as he could, and he was stunned on the spot at this moment.

At this moment, Xiahoudun hurriedly ran in from outside. "Lord, those strongmen have appeared!"

Cao Cao and the others have to wait for many days on this dock, so they can't always ask their generals and soldiers to be ready for battle, right? In this way, they also came up with an idea to take turns to monitor the movements at sea.

And on this day, it happened to be Xiahoudun on duty.

As soon as Xiahoudun noticed that a ship was approaching at sea, he immediately rushed to inform Cao Cao. It is precisely because of Xiahoudun's news that Cao Cao successfully escaped.

"Mr. Guiyi, let's go and have a look." Cao Cao said this, but he didn't give Ye Mo the slightest chance to refute, and stood up directly and walked towards the door.

Seeing Cao Cao like this, Ye Mo just smiled and shook his head, and then walked out.

After going out, Ye Mo really saw more than a dozen sea ships approaching in the direction of the dock.

"I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble this time." As soon as Ye Mo approached Cao Cao, he heard Cao Cao say such a sentence, and he didn't know whether Cao Cao said it to himself or to others.

However, since Ye Mo heard Cao Cao's emotion, he would naturally ask Cao Cao about the deep meaning of this sentence. Although Ye Mo understood very well, Cao Cao meant that today's events might have been a little beyond expectations. "Mengde, did those strongmen have so many ships arriving at the same time?"

"There were only three or five ships before, but I didn't want more than a dozen warships to appear directly now, so we couldn't have to withdraw in advance." Although Cao Ren brought three heavy infantry over, Cao Cao was still very unconfident.

In the previous battle, those strongmen only came with four ships, and only more than 150 people landed ashore, but when faced with more than 1,000 heavy infantry, dozens of people retreated safely.

At this time, there are more than a dozen warships, who knows how many people they can come down. If there are 700 people, then this battle can admit defeat without fighting. What's more, before those strongmen landed, they would bombard with catapults for a while.

Catapults, the most important role of which is not to kill, but to deter. It is estimated that the number of people who will be killed by the boulders thrown by catapults is less than a hundred, or even less than fifty. However, watching those huge stones constantly being magnified in the line of sight, and then smashing a person next to him into meat sauce, will make a person who is not very psychologically good directly scared to pee.

A person who is so frightened that he doesn't even dare to fight with the other party, in the hand-to-hand combat behind, he can do it without affecting his own formation, then it is considered very powerful.

Ye Mo looked at Cao Cao with an anxious look, but he was not in a hurry. "Montermo should panic. Look at the sergeants in front of you. They might be backing up now? If even you don't trust them anymore. Then they will really lose. ”

Hearing Ye Mo say this, Cao Cao was stunned for a moment.

"If you don't trust them, they're really defeated." In Cao Cao's heart, this sentence kept ringing.

Cao Cao was not stupid, and soon he understood what Ye Mo meant.

It will be the courage of the soldiers, if even the generals are panicked, even if those soldiers have 100% strength, I am afraid that they will not be able to play at the level of six or seven percent.

After figuring it out. Cao Cao looked at Ye Mo's eyes, and suddenly felt a little more grateful.

"In that case, how about we go to that high place and watch the battle?" After Cao Cao figured it out, he was also thinking about a solution. After looking around the environment of the dock, Cao Cao pointed to a wooden watchtower that was slightly away from the shore, but extremely high.

"Don't dare to ask for ears, but you can do what you want." Ye Mo smiled slightly, and walked towards the lookout with Cao Cao.

Cao Ren led the heavy infantry to see the movements of Cao Cao and Ye Mo, originally, Cao Ren thought that Cao Cao was going to go first. This made Cao Ren breathe a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he felt a little unhappy. However, after seeing the two men climb the watchtower. Although Cao Ren felt that the task was much heavier, he also felt that there was an inexhaustible amount of strength pouring out of his body.

"Brothers, do you think that this time the enemy is coming more, and we will definitely not be able to resist it? But look back and see the man standing on the top of the watchtower, looking at your man, who he really is! Cao Ren looked at the slightly nervous and frightened faces in the team, and then yelled at them loudly.

After listening to Cao Ren's words, the three thousand soldiers also turned around to find the person Cao Ren said.

And that person is also easy to find, in the highest watchtower, there are only Ye Mo and Cao Cao.

"The lord is watching your performance there, and he is not even afraid of the lord, what are you afraid of?" After making sure that the soldiers had found Cao Cao's figure, Cao Ren yelled at the soldiers again.

Hearing Cao Ren roar like this, these soldiers also lowered their heads, and they didn't dare to look at Cao Ren.

However, how could Cao Ren's purpose be so simple, it was too wasteful for Cao Cao to climb to the watchtower.

"What do we do next, you say?" Cao Ren looked at these soldiers who lowered their heads and didn't speak, and shouted again.

After hearing Cao Ren's words, those soldiers were silent for a while, and their faces turned red one by one. Finally, one of the soldiers who couldn't help it shouted: "Fight to the death!" Then his eyes were fixed on Cao Ren and he didn't leave.

Someone started, and naturally someone followed. "Fight to the death!"

"Fight to the death!"

……

In the end, only one voice came out of the mouths of these 3,000 soldiers, and that was "Fight to the death!" ”

Ye Mo stood on the lookout and watched, but he stroked his palms and laughed, and said: "Such a good general, and even more military heart, this battle can be expected!" ”

Cao Cao finally earned some face in front of Ye Mo, and he didn't dare to be proud now, but the scholar Ye Mo smiled slightly, and then roared angrily in his heart: "Praise me, you praise me quickly!" ”

Ye Mo and Cao Cao climbed the watchtower, which made Wei Zhongdao's face very ugly. This Ye Mo climbed to the watchtower, and the tower was surrounded by Cao Cao's tiger guards, this is chaos, and those people who have fog but Li have no chance.

However, Xiaoliang, who was ambushed on the periphery with Luo Yi, was always in a state of eagerness after seeing Ye Mo and Cao Cao climb the watchtower together. If it weren't for Luo Yi's order to capture Ye Mo alive to suppress Xiao Liang, it would be really dangerous for Ye Mo to wait a while.

As the warships of those island nations approached, they were indeed projecting boulders as a deterrent at the beginning. However, for the people who had been prepared, the loss was not great.

After the stone throwing, the soldiers of the island nation began to land.

At this time, Cao Cao was concerned about whether the formation of the 3,000 heavy infantry under Cao Ren could withstand those strongmen, while Ye Mo's concern was about these people from the island country, their weapons and equipment, and the tactical literacy they showed.

After all, Cao Cao only had to focus on being able to defend it for now, but what Ye Mo had to consider was how to solve the great enemy of the island nation. Sometimes, it's a happy thing to know less.

As those island ships approached, Ye Mo and Cao Cao held their breath at the same time, but the problems they were worried about were completely different.

After those soldiers of the island country were finally about to get off the ship and land, Ye Mo found that the civilization of the island country seemed to be much earlier.

Some of the island people who got off the ship were dressed as samurai, and the armor on their bodies was even much better than the armor of many armies of the Han Dynasty, and even compared with the armor of some generals, it was estimated that it was not much better.

The other part is ordinary soldiers, who only wear leather armor or cloth armor, and the weapons in their hands are also spears, bows and arrows.

Seeing that the soldiers of the island country were about to land, Cao Ren also led the heavy infantry to directly meet the attack, instead of passively staying in the dock like last time and waiting for the enemy to come in.

This time, these soldiers led by Cao Ren were all determined to die, which caught the soldiers of the island country a little off guard. However, Cao Cao and others also made a major mistake this time, Cao Ren's team was too single.

If there are archers or crossbowmen, keep them while the island soldiers are still landing, and use arrows to kill at least 30% of his troops.

This time, the soldiers of the island country were about 500 people, which was not as many as previously thought.

With the disembarkation of the soldiers of the island nation, the confrontation between the two armies also occurred very quickly. The soldiers of those island countries were really strong in combat, especially those samurai, who tore a gap in the attack of the heavy infantry and the shield array they put out. If it weren't for Cao Ren's timely command, I'm afraid this formation would have dispersed.

It's just that in the end, something happened that Ye Mo didn't expect.

"Bang!"

With a crisp sound sounding, Cao Ren's body also fell backwards uncontrollably. Moreover, the moment Cao Ren fell, there were no enemies by his side.

But Ye Mo knew very well, and he also knew very well that the voice was definitely the sound of a powder gun. Ye Mo didn't expect that the island country now had gunpowder weapons, and sure enough, the situation was much more severe than he imagined. (To be continued......)
