Chapter 321: Zhang He (1/2)

Yuan Shao is defeated!

But not a rout......

Cao *** won!

But there are too many factors that cannot be replicated. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Cao *** was very sober, and did not his little tail because of the victory in front of him, and only ordered the pursuit for ten miles, and then collected his troops and returned to the camp.

As it turned out, the ten-mile pursuit was just right.

When he heard that Yuan Shao was defeated, he immediately ordered troops and horses to come to the rescue.

If Cao *** pursues it again, it will inevitably turn into a tragic encounter. If there is an encounter, it will not be a good thing for Cao ***.

Yuan Shao was shocked, and after returning to Yanjin, he finally came back to his senses and jumped like thunder in the big tent of the Chinese army.

At this point, the frustration had not yet returned.

Guo Tu's eyes rolled, and he immediately stepped forward and said, "Lord, this battle is quite strange. ”

"Oh?"

When Cao *** retreated, he ordered Zhang He to stay still. After the lord attacked, Cao *** concentrated his troops and horses to attack, and Zhang He's whereabouts are still unknown...... There must be something strange about this, I think that if you are not frustrated, you will collude with Cao ***? I have heard that before crossing the river, Fu Zhu ordered people to return to their homes and dismiss their small clansmen...... Lord, do you think it will be the governor of the frustration......"

Seven points is enough!

Yuan Shao couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

This battle is indeed a bit weird!

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

The sky was bright and it was raining lightly.

The people at the head of the Duting Bridge, under the command of Cao Jun, successfully crossed the river in an orderly manner. Cao *** immediately ordered someone to destroy the pontoon bridge and ordered a retreat to the chasm water. At the same time, he ordered Lejin to continue to garrison Fengqiu to prevent Yuan's army from attacking Jishui and attacking Chenliu County in the south.

Jia Xu Guo Jia Cheng Yu felt the gap from Zhongmu and greeted Cao ***'s soldiers and horses.

That night, the army was stationed on the chasm.

Cao Peng slept in the dark and didn't wake up until midnight. The bones all over the body were extremely sore, apparently caused by detachment. The camp tent was very quiet, and two large waxes were lit, and the small military tent was reflected transparently, and Cao Peng could see it at a glance.

"Ziyou!"

Cao Peng called softly.

Xiahou Lan, who was dozing off beside him, woke up suddenly, and walked to Cao Peng in three steps and two steps, "Childe, you finally woke up." ”

"I'm ......"

"After the fierce battle in Xiaotan in the early morning, you slept on the battlefield.

Sikong saw that you were too sleepy, so he ordered us to carry you back, and then evacuate with the army...... You've slept all day...... Sikong has sent people over several times to inquire about your condition. It can be seen that you are sleeping deeply, so I ordered me not to wake you up. We're in the chasm right now. ”

"The chasm?"

Cao Peng closed his eyes, and said softly after a while: "So, we won?" ”

He remembered that in the early hours of the morning, Cao *** launched a Jedi counterattack. It's just that he slept so dead at the time that it wasn't clear what the outcome would be.

Now it seems that Cao *** is in Xiaotan, I'm afraid he won!

Xia Houlan nodded and said, "Exactly." ”

"The loss is not small."

"The Yue cavalry battalion was almost completely wiped out, and the Tiger Ben army lost more than sixty percent. The rest of the departments were killed and wounded. I heard people say that in the first battle of Xiaotan, the number of casualties should be about 3,000. ”

Cao Peng took a cool breath.

Three thousand, almost more than three percent of the elite of the Cao army.

Fortunately, it is the elite that can barely hold on. If it is the county soldiers and townsmen, I am afraid that they have been completely defeated.

Cao *** This time, the loss is really not small......

The battle of Yanjin, the battle of the sour jujube wheel, Cao ***'s loss may not be so big. Three thousand elites! It's a bit shocking.

Xiahoulan continued: "However, Yuan Jun's losses are even greater.

It is said that at least five or six thousand people died, and countless deserters were killed. If it weren't for the frustration and the rescue of the troops, maybe even Yuan Shao would have to fold in Xiaotan. Sikong also said that the reason why Xiaotan was able to defeat first and then win, Gongzi should remember the first credit, let you have a good rest, and after crossing the river tomorrow, Sikong will summon you in Zhongmu. ”

Cao Peng found that Xia Houlan's eyes flickered a little when she spoke, and she suddenly had an ominous thought.

"Ziyou, are you hiding something from me?"

Xiahou Lan showed a sad look and said softly: "Lord, Hei Wei and Fei Wei, more than half of them are killed and injured. ”

During the Three Kingdoms period, there were thousands of people, tens of thousands of people at every turn, and 100,000 male soldiers were all floating clouds for Cao Peng, and they didn't have much to do with it. But Fei Wei and Hei Wei are different, they are real soldiers, and they have followed Cao Peng for at least a year.

Cao Peng's personal guards were not many in the first place, and the total number of black guards was only a few hundred.

This time, he brought three hundred people over, and later added another hundred. The loss of more than half is definitely a huge loss for Cao Peng. Although Cao Peng had been mentally prepared, when he heard such a result, he couldn't help but sit on the couch and couldn't speak for a long time.

"There are only eighty people left in Feiwei now, and there are only 100 people in Heiwei......"

"Have the corpses ever been collected?"

"It's so chaotic on the battlefield that it's impossible to tell the difference."

Cao Peng motioned for Xiahou Lan to take a pair of mattresses and put them under him.

He pondered for a moment and said softly: "Let Derun count the list, and after you go back, each family will receive ten gold."

In the future, we must think of a way, at least to give everyone a mark of identity. The brothers died on the battlefield, and we can't do anything else, but at least we have to give them a spiritual position. In this way, you ask Derun to write a letter to Xingyang and order the workshop to create some famous brands. ”

"Nameplate?"

"It's just a small piece of iron, with a name or number written on it, and a chain is worn on the body, so that it can be easily identified."

Cao Peng said while gesturing.

After Xia Houlan wrote it down, he got up and walked out of the military tent.

After a while, I saw Kan Ze, Ganning, Hao Zhao, and Han De rushing into the military tent.

"Childe!"

"Okay, okay, don't be like a child." Cao Peng didn't wait for them to speak, and waved his hand to refuse their shouting. Come to think of it, it's actually quite embarrassing. In just one month, he was unconscious twice. Although this time I was tired, it was still a little embarrassing.

After motioning for everyone to sit down, he glanced at Han De in surprise.

Kan Ze hurriedly explained, "After we withdraw, the Duting Camp will be incorporated into other divisions.

Originally, Xinzhi's department was going to be transferred to the Yue cavalry camp, and Xinzhi wanted to stay with Gongzi, so he let the tribe pass, but he stayed here. Xingbazi Youbodao and I both think that Xinzhi is a real person. Childe will inevitably need more manpower in the future, so he agreed. ”

"Please take it in!"

Han De is a smart man, and when he heard this, he quickly knelt down in front of the couch and pleaded.

In the eyes of many, Han De's actions seem a bit stupid......

But Han De knew very well that a person like him, who had no foundation, wanted to get ahead, and had no other choice but to fight for his life. If he goes to the Yue Cavalry Battalion, he can indeed become a military horse. But if you want to move up again, I'm afraid it's not easy.

If you stay with Cao Peng, it's different.

Cao Peng wants to be famous, to have military exploits, to have qualifications, and to have a background......

These four points gathered together doomed Cao Peng's future to be immeasurable. Especially when Cao Peng was carried back, the blood-stained cloak covered by his body is said to have been taken off by Cao *** from his body and personally covered Cao Peng. Following Cao Peng will definitely not be worse than going to the Yue Cavalry Battalion to be a military horseman. Han De joined the army in the first year of Jian'an, and he was only a small military marquis for five years; can see that almost all of these people around Cao Peng have become famous. Even Kan Ze, who is powerless, is now the head of a battalion, above the military commander......

Cao Peng, how could he treat himself badly?

Looking at Han De, Cao Peng finally remembered his origin.

This guy seems to have appeared in the romance, but in the later stages. At that time, Han De had become a partial general, and he had four sons, known as the Five Tigers of the Han family, and he could be regarded as a fierce general. It's just that he met Zhao Yun later and was killed by Zhao Yun...... It's a shame when I think about it.

Today's Han De is just a small person, and he has not yet married a wife and had children.

Gan Ning said: "Xinzhi's martial arts are not bad, only under Ziyou, he is willing to come over, but he is a big helper of Gongzi." ”

Cao Peng nodded, "Since this is the case, then I will first grieve and believe it." ”

He also knew that he couldn't keep Gan Ning by his side all the time. As Gan Ning builds meritorious deeds again and again, sooner or later he will be sent out to great use. And in Cao Peng's heart, he also hopes that Gan Ning can soar, instead of staying by his side for the rest of his life and being a thug.

If this is the case, then it is a grievance for Gan Ning.

In this regard, Cao Peng did not think carefully.

If Gan Ning goes out, even if he soars in the future, he will also carry his own mark.

It's better to have such a person to support you than to go it alone. After the battle of Yanjin, Cao Peng found that there were too many uncertain factors in this history. Originally, the battle of Yanjin was not so hard, but now it has become extremely tragic.

Although Yan Liangwen was still killed, Cao Jun also suffered a lot of losses.

How many advantages can you have in your own 'big picture'? Even Cao Peng couldn't say it clearly.

If you have someone out there to help you, it's a good choice. At this time, Cao Peng hoped very much that he could support Gan Ning and others to take the position. The sooner they ascend to power, the greater their influence, and the better it will be for themselves. If Gan Ning leaves, Han De will come over as a supplement.

Zilong?

It's out of reach for the time being!

What about the others......

Cao Peng couldn't think of it for a while.

Just let Han De stay by his side for the time being and cultivate it well, but he is also a good hand.

Thinking of this, Cao Peng readily agreed. And Han De was even more excited, because he saw a broad road......

Xia Houlan brought a bowl of porridge and handed it to Cao Peng.

After a night of fierce battles and a day of sleep, Cao Peng was already hungry. He lay on the couch, drinking porridge and chatting with everyone.

From everyone's words, Cao Peng learned that Cao *** had arrived in Zhongmu.

It seems that the battle of Guandu has completely begun. It's just that I don't know if Yuan Shaojing Xiaotan is defeated, does he still have the courage to fight again?

However, this is not something that Cao Peng needs to consider!

"By the way, when we were retreating from Qu Yuju, we captured two people.

One of them said that he was from the Julu Tian clan, named Tian Fang, and had come to Sikong to defect. However, due to the fact that Sikong was busy retreating at that time, and Childe was unconscious, he could not report it in time. He is now being held in our camp, waiting for his son's fate. ”

"Julu, Tian?"

Cao Peng was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Kan Ze in astonishment.

"It's Yuan Shao's clansmen from Jizhou who don't drive Tianfeng."

"Tian Feng, wasn't he locked up in Yecheng Prison by Yuan Shao? Why did this field return? ”

"This ......"

Kan Ze looked at the people in the tent and said softly: "But the wealthy families of the mortal clan will take precautions.

Just like Xun Shangshu, he and Xun Duwei are both children of the Xun family, and they are ministers under the lord; But Xun Shangshu's second brother, Xun Chen, is indeed Yuan Shao's mastermind. It is said that Yuan Shao sent troops this time, and Xun Chen was also one of the main fighters. Come to think of it, this Tian Fang also wants to emulate the Xun family's practice. ”

Don't put all your eggs in one basket!

This is also one of the most common practices of the Maison. In the troubled times, they survived by looking for different lords; In the rule of the world, it grows by relying on different parties. It's just that Cao Peng doesn't know much about this, so he asked Kan Ze.

Kan Ze's explanation, Cao Peng suddenly understood.

He pondered for a moment, "Is that Tian Fang still in the camp now?" ”

"Exactly."

"Bring him here."

Cao Peng said, and asked people to help him up from the couch, and then drank the porridge.

After a while, I saw Han De walking into the military tent with a person, and arched his hand: "Childe, someone has brought it." ”

Cao Peng looked up and saw that Tian Fang's age was estimated to be less than thirty. is about 175 tall, and he is also a talent.

When he walked into the tent, he did not bow down, but held his head high and looked proud.

"Are you Tian Fang?"

"Exactly."

"I heard you're going to surrender to Sikong?"

"No, it's for the sake of the common cause."

What surrender? Do you know how to speak? This is called defection to Cao ***, not to surrender to Cao ***.

Cao Peng frowned and said softly: "The lord is not here now, it is estimated that even if you go, it is estimated that he will not have time to meet him...... I can send you to Zhongmu, but the Lord Guild will not see you, but it depends on your luck...... Well, I'll have you sent away as soon as it's dawn. ”

He didn't like this Takata, because he didn't like it very much.

Cao Peng has always respected me a foot, and I respect you. If you want to play a little trick in front of me, play with a cool personality, and I don't want to see you.

Don't you want to meet Cao ***?

Yes, I'll send you there......

Tian Fang bowed his hand arrogantly, "In this way, thank you first." ”

After finishing speaking, he hesitated for a moment and said in a deep voice: "I still have something to ask, what are you going to do with Jun Yi?" ”

"Junyi?"

Cao Peng was stunned, "What does Junyi have to do with me?" His own lord sent people to garrison him. ”

"It's not Junyi, it's Junyi! It was General Zhang He. ”

Maybe it was because of the accent that Cao Peng heard poorly and listened to the name of the person as the name of the place. But when Tian Fang said the word 'Zhang He', Cao Pengke heard it clearly. Zhang He? He is not under Yuan Shao, and he is not my prisoner, how can I deal with him?

"You mean, the Yuan general who was captured in Tacun is Zhang He?"

Kan Ze also knew Zhang He's name, and when he heard Tian Fang mention Zhang He's name, he was stunned at first, and then he came to his senses. To be honest, they really didn't know before that the person captured in Tacun was Zhang He. I just thought it was an ordinary Yuan general, so I didn't pay attention to it. After the battle of Xiaotan, he was first busy withdrawing his troops, and then he was worried about Cao Peng's safety, so that no one went over to ask.

If Tian Fang hadn't mentioned it at this time, I'm afraid no one would have known that Zhang He, one of the four court pillars in Hebei, had become a prisoner under the stairs......

Cao Peng couldn't help frowning, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Early tomorrow morning, send him and Zhang He to Zhongmu together." ”

After speaking, he stared at Tian Fang again, "If there is nothing else, you can go back first." Don't worry, I won't deal with Zhang He, and I have my own decision. ”
