Chapter 306: Retreat as Advance (2/2)

"Ah Fu, how are you doing?"

Cao *** asked, with a deep concern in his words. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Cao Peng can feel that Cao ***'s concern does not mean to be fake, but from the heart. In later generations, some people often say that Cao *** is a hypocritical villain. But in fact, Cao ***'s love for his clansmen and henchmen is absolutely from the heart. When you think about it, it seems normal. You are not your own person, and you don't really do things for me, so why should I care about you from the bottom of my heart?

Comparing hearts to hearts, Cao *** didn't do anything wrong.

Spring night, icy cold.

A heavy rain caused the temperature to drop sharply.

Cao *** asked Cao Peng to change into dry clothes and pulled him to chat in the big tent.

Asked about the killing of Wen Chou, Cao Peng smiled and said: "Wen Chou was not killed by me, the person who killed Wen Chou was the general Gan Ning Gan Xingba next to me." ”

"Is that Miss Huang's personal entourage?"

"Exactly."

Gan Ning was originally with Cao Peng through Huang Yueying.

Although Gan Ning has been following Cao Peng now, most of the time, people still think that Gan Ning is Huang Yueying's general.

Cao *** was happy and nodded again and again to express his appreciation.

"After this battle is over, let Gan Ning join the ranks."

He squinted and looked at Cao Peng.

In this way, he wanted to check Cao Peng's reaction.

After all, Gan Ning has been following Cao Peng, and letting Gan Ning enter the office has the meaning of leaving Cao Peng.

Cao Peng said: "My nephew is about to talk to my father about this...... Xingba has great talents, not only strong martial arts, but also can be independent. It's just that he hasn't made an inch of merit before, so it's not easy for his nephew to speak. Now, he has killed Wen Chou and asked his father to give him a future. ”

"Don't you regret it?"

"Regrets?"

Cao *** smiled: "If Gan Ning is as good as you say, he will be above you sooner or later." ”

"It is the nephew's duty to recommend virtuous people for the country. Besides, Gan Ning is already above me, if the father reuses him, doesn't it mean that I have a good vision? Hehe, what does the nephew regret? To be honest, my nephew has always felt that Gan Ning is by my side and has succumbed. ”

Cao ***, squinting, smiling and nodding.

In addition, in this war, Xiahoulan also made miraculous achievements.

When I was on a white horse, Ziyou lurked in the city with me and set fire to the city...... Just now in the Ten Mile Camp, it was also Ziyou who took Gao Ran. He was originally a young general under his father, and it was only because of a joke at the beginning that he has followed me to this day. Over the years, Ziyou has been loyal and has made many contributions. So the nephew dared to ask his father to let Ziyou return to the army...... He is more with my father than with me. ”

"Good, good, good!"

Cao *** looked up to the sky and laughed, "If the people around me can be like Ah Fu you, why worry about the world not being quiet."

However, whether it is Gan Ning or Xia Houlan, it is better to let them stay with you for the time being. The reward is to be given, but it is ...... Now that the war is not over, you need to be accompanied by those who are available. Previously, Wen Chou killed many of my generals in front of the battle, which caused some instability in the army's morale. Now that you are coming back with the head of Wen Chou, you can share my worries and sorrows, I wonder if you are willing, Ah Fu? ”

"May I be sent from the Father."

"That is it, I will announce early tomorrow morning that I will let you be the captain of the inspection school, temporarily lead a school of soldiers and horses, and garrison it in the southwest of the sour date, on the bank of the gutter, how about it?"

The ditch, also known as the ditch water, is out of the Lang Canal in Yangwu County.

In the first year of King Xiang of Qin Zhuang, the general of Qin attacked Chenggao and Xingyang, and initially placed Sanchuan County. Therefore, some people say that this gutter was built by Mengfu.

When Cao Peng heard this, he intervened and said, "My nephew obeys." ”

Cao *** suddenly smiled, "Gan Ning and Xiahou Lan will stay under you to serve." But there is one thing I want to make clear to you, this test captain is only temporary. As for your merits, after the war is over, return to Xudu, and then Wen Ruo agrees to reward you. ”

It's just temporary!

However, Cao Peng was not disappointed by this, on the contrary, he felt very happy.

He is now a lieutenant in the Northern Army, and his food is more than 600 stones. And the inspection captain is at least a thousand stones...... Since he is allowed to be the captain of the inspection school, it means that after the end of the war, Cao Peng's position will not be less than a thousand stones. At the age of seventeen, he was awarded a thousand stones, which is definitely not a small position. Of course, if compared with Sun Quan, who is a fourteen-year-old Fengyi lieutenant and has a real 2,000 stone salary, it is really nothing compared to a thousand stone Lianglu. But Sun Quan is Sun Ce's brother after all, and he is still Wu Hou now...... In terms of age, it is not much the same as Cao Peng, and he has already achieved the rank of marquis. So, this kind of thing, there is really nothing to compare.

Cao Peng gladly accepted.

Cao is really amazing...... That is Cao ***'s godson, who has been by Cao ***'s side since he was a child.

Now riding in the tiger and leopard, that is, a Sima who is more than 600 stones; Cao Xiu is older than Cao Peng, and he is called 'my family's thousand miles horse', but it is only a real 600 stone of money. Therefore, Cao Peng can get a thousand stones, which is rare in Cao ***'s army.

"Then let's go and rest early.

Guess they've already settled your home...... Tomorrow morning, I will entrust you with a heavy responsibility. ”

"Whoa!"

Cao Peng stood up and saluted, bowed and retreated.

Cao *** sat on the bed and couldn't help laughing!

This kid is also a person who knows what is important, and knows how to advance by retreating. However, although I said that I would rather be responsible for others than for others, how can I be sorry for you if you are faithful to me...... Hehe, Ah Fu has this kind of vision, and he will definitely be able to make great achievements in the future.

"Literary quality."

"Whoa!"

"Go and call the country."

"Yes."

Cao Bin received the order and turned around to leave.

But I heard Cao *** shouting to him again, "Look at Gao Chang's resignation and wake up?" If you wake up, bring him here. ”

"Yes."

Cao *** stood up, walked around the tent, and then returned to the couch and sat down.

He picked up a book and was about to read it, when he heard someone outside the tent: "Sikong, what is the matter with Yu?" ”

"Ah, Guorang, come in quickly."

Cao *** couldn't help but smile when he heard that voice, and hurriedly called for outsiders to come in.

From outside the big tent, a young man in his twenties walked in. I saw that he was about seven feet seven inches tall, that is, about 176 centimeters.

The face is like pink jade, the teeth are white and the lips are red.

A pair of eyes are as shining as the morning star, and they show extraordinary posture in every gesture.

The young man was dressed in a green shirt, walked in calmly, and bowed.

Cao *** hurriedly signaled that he didn't need to be polite, and said warmly: "Guorang, I have a very important matter that I want to ask you." ”

"Just by command."

"Do you know my nephew Cao Peng?"

The young man was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Even if I didn't know it before, but after tonight, Yu also knows."

The famous Cao Babai, Yu has heard of it for a long time. I used to think that he was only good at literary affairs, but he didn't want to have such skills, so he beheaded Yan Liang, punished Wen Chou, and captured Gao Lan...... The four court pillars of Hebei have lost three of them, thanks to Cao Babai's work, how can Yu not know? ”

"Hehe, but I lost my words."

Cao *** couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart.

See, my Cao family is also a capable person......

However, he immediately put away his smile and said, "Guorang, I called you here because I have one thing to trust."

Tomorrow I will order Youxue to be the captain of the inspection school and garrison the gutter and the desecration pavilion. He is calm, and I am relieved...... But he must have been young, and I fear that he will get carried away. Therefore, I want you to order the army to order the army to help him, are you willing? ”

When the young man heard this, he arched his hand and said, "I am willing to be sent from the air." ”

"Okay, then you prepare, tomorrow I will order Zhongkang to lead you to meet him."

"Whoa!"

The young man surrendered his order and withdrew from the Chinese army's big tent.

With a long breath, Cao *** gently slapped his forehead, revealing a tired look.

After all, I'm not young!

Cao *** is forty-four years old this year, and after a night of fighting, and then there was ecstasy...... After all kinds of things are processed, it is inevitable to feel tired.

He stood up and was just about to go out, when he heard Cao Bin say outside the tent: "Lord, Gao Ran brings it." ”

Cao *** suddenly showed joy when he heard this, staggered under his feet, and walked out of the big tent, only to see Gao Ran tied by ropes and ropes, standing in front of the tent.

"How can you be so rude to General Gao."

Cao *** took two steps and said sharply: "Why don't you loosen your ties with the general?" ”

————————————————————————————————

Perhaps, Yuan Shao couldn't figure it out.

obviously had the upper hand, but all of a sudden it ended in a fiasco.

Belch...... It can't be said to be a fiasco, to be precise, it is a loss. At least when Yuan Shao returned to the camp, he still thought so in his heart.

Knowing that Wen Chou went to chase the enemy army, Yuan Shao didn't care.

Later, when I heard the sergeant sent back by Gao Ran say that Gao Ran and Wen Chou pursued together, Yuan Shao was even more relieved.

The first thing he has to deal with is the endgame in front of him.

Guo Tu said: "Lord, tonight's battle is not a crime of war, but the thief is lucky, and he didn't know where to drill a troop of soldiers and horses to make trouble." ”

Yuan Shaoshen thought so and nodded lightly.

Guo Tu is not wrong at all, tonight is really Cao *** lucky.

If the fire in the camp had been a little later at that time, it would not have been of much use if someone had robbed the camp when the rain was pouring down. At that time, Yuan Shao had also broken through Cao ***'s camp, and maybe he had captured Cao *** alive. Therefore, this drink and peck are destined by heaven.

Maybe God doesn't want me to solve Cao *** today?

Yuan Shao's heart couldn't help but feel depressed.

He swept his gaze over the people in the big tent, but saw that his face was contemplative, and he didn't say a word.

With a slight movement in his heart, Yuan Shao said: "Mr. Fu, why don't you make a sound?" ”

Frustrated, he stood up and said: "Lord, today's good situation has not been successful, maybe it is a reminder from heaven that you can't succeed in a battle with Cao Thief." In the opinion of the teaching, the lord should first try to gain a firm foothold in Henan. In fact, the sour jujube does not need to be ignored, Puyang should be taken first. ”

"Puyang?"

"Take Puyang to determine Yanzhou.

Once Yanzhou succeeds, Cao Thief will inevitably change his morale.

At that time, the lord could try to recruit Zang Ba, and then wave his army south, straight to Xudu, even if Cao *** had great ability, he could only tie his hands. ”

"No!"

Guo Tu saw that Yuan Shao was moved, and hurriedly stopped him.

Good fellow, if Yuan Shao adopts the advice of the frustrated professor, wouldn't it mean that I designed a sneak attack on Cao Jun tonight, which is an extra move?

Guo Tu said: "Lord, although the battle tonight was not successful, the details of Cao Thief have been exposed.

Why should the lord go far and near? The Cao thief is in front of him, as long as the Cao thief camp is broken, the world will definitely be at your fingertips, this is the luck of the common people. If Mr. Fu said, I am afraid that this war may not be able to end in a year or two. Rather than this, it is better to go straight to Xu Du. ”

When he heard this, he became anxious.

"Gongzhi, you are straightforward and ruthless, but you can succeed in a battle, dare to ask how to succeed?

That Cao *** is not a three-year-old child, he will definitely try his best to deal with the lord. If you attack Puyang, then the heroes of the world will definitely move when they hear the wind, but if they take the capital, if they can't fight quickly, then the heroes will die down and wait to see the changes in the situation, but I am afraid that it will not be beautiful. ”

"Cao *** is not a three-year-old child, is the lord an ordinary person.

The lord is of noble birth and has millions of elite soldiers under his command, if he concentrates his strength, can Cao *** resist? In my opinion, Mr. Fu is afraid that he has ulterior motives. ”

"Guo Tu, you ......"

Yuan Shao listened to the two arguing and felt that his head was big.

"Mr. Fu, Gongzhi, you all shut up."

Frustrated with Guo Tu, he closed his mouth. However, the two of them were like fighting cocks, glaring at each other, and neither of them would bow to the other.

Yuan Shao let out a long breath and was about to speak.

Suddenly, I heard a report from the small school outside the account: "Lord, the big thing is not good!" ”

"Why the panic?"

"Just got the news, General Wen Chou, General Wen Chou, he ......"

Yuan Shao trembled, stood up with a snort, and asked sharply, "Xin Yi, what's wrong with him?" ”

"General Wen Chou was ambushed in the ten-mile camp, and was killed by Cao Jun."

"Ahhh

Yuan Shao's head only felt a buzzing sound, and the sky suddenly spun.

"You say it again?"

"General Wen Chou was killed by Cao Jun, and General Gao Lan was also captured by Cao Jun."

"Babble!" Yuan Shao sat down with a plop, stunned, unable to say a word for a long time.

When everyone in the tent saw this, they were shocked. One by one, they scrambled to call 'Lord, Lord, wake up', and some people pinched people, and finally it was Yuan Shao who was able to relieve this breath. Yuan Shao's heart was like a knife, he stood up with his long body, and asked sharply: "Who killed Xin Yi?" ”

"Well, I don't know."

"I don't know, I don't know, I don't know...... Yuan Shao jumped like thunder, raised his foot and kicked over the bookcase in front of him, and pulled out his sword with a bang, "You don't know about such things, what use do I want to wait." ”

As he spoke, Yuan Shao raised his sword and stabbed the soldier to the ground with a sword.

"Immediately order the soldiers and horses, I will fight the thieves again."

"Think twice!"

Guo Tu was also startled, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, "Lord, it is raining heavily tonight, and the thief Cao has just made a sneak attack, so he must have been prepared." Besides, with the ability of General Xin Yi, how can he wait for idlers to kill? In case the thief has an ambush, this is tantamount to throwing himself into a net.

In the opinion of the picture, after dawn, the lord will light up the soldiers and horses again, and fight to the death with the Cao thief, see what tricks the Cao thief can have at that time. ”

Yuan Shao, finally calmed down.

But as soon as he thought of Wen Chou being killed, he was restless.

Yan Liangwen is ugly, all of which are his confidants and favorite generals, and they are his arms. Now that his arms are missing, how can he bear the pain of losing his arms?

"Tomorrow, tomorrow...... I swear to take the head of the thief. ”

Yuan Shao's hands clenched into fists, and he suddenly raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar.

——————————————————

On January 19 of the fifth year of Jian'an, Yuan Shao's army crossed the Yellow River and waited for an opportunity to fight a decisive battle with Cao ***.

Almost at the same time, Liu Bei led the remnants of his army to defeat and arrived in Donghai County. Immediately, Donghai County Taishou Changfeng was in Tan County and rebelled.

The battle situation is confusing!
