Today's moon is particularly round, exuding a charming soft light, and a breeze or two blows from time to time, making people feel a little refreshing in this hot summer.

Didi, a sound of horses' hooves came, and Luther, who was standing on the city wall, narrowed his eyes, and he watched a vague figure slowly become clear, that person was the scout sent out today! But why did the scouts come back so early today? Luther thought to himself.

On the third day after Xiaohu left, Li Ziqiang sent out a large number of scouts, and he wanted to get first-hand information about the supporting officers and soldiers, so as to prepare for the ambush! According to the custom, the scout at night should come back at the third watch in the middle of the night, which is what we call twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, but now he has not been dark for long, that is, at eight o'clock, the scout will not come back without anything, and sure enough, before the scout is near the city gate, he shouted: "Open the city gate quickly, open the city gate quickly." There is an emergency. ”

As the captain of Li Ziqiang's personal army, of course he knew what the big deal was, so he didn't say a word, just waved his hand, and someone immediately went to open the gate.

The scout waited for the gates to open and rushed in. There is no intention of stopping at all. At this time, Li Ziqiang was sitting in the study of the county guard's mansion and reading books relaxedly. Suddenly, the sound of footsteps reached Li Ziqiang's ears. Li Ziqiang immediately reacted, something big happened. And now the big thing is that reinforcements have arrived! Because Li Ziqiang said to his own soldiers that without his orders, ordinary people could not enter when he was reading.

Sure enough, there was a knock on the door in the study, and a neutral voice came in, and he said to Li Ziqiang: "Young village master, urgent military situation, urgent military situation." ”

Li Ziqiang stretched his waist and said loudly, "Come in." ”

The two soldiers at the gate heard Li Ziqiang's order and immediately let him go.

The door to the study opened, and a thin thief walked in. He saluted Li Ziqiang and said: "I have seen the young village master, tell the young village master, tonight, I found a large number of officers and soldiers, they are twenty-five miles away from here. ”

Li Ziqiang asked in a deep voice: "Who are these reinforcements?" Infantry or cavalry. ”

This scout was also a clever man, and he immediately knew what Li Ziqiang meant. So he immediately said: "Young village master, there are about 1,000 people in this group, and the big banner erected is the character Cao. ”

Li Ziqiang said lightly: "Cao Zi? Could it be him? ”

At this time, Li Ziqiang remembered Cao*, the biggest hero in the history of the Three Kingdoms. At this time, only Cao* could command a thousand men. As for the other surnamed Cao, Li Ziqiang really doesn't know much! What, you ask Cao Chun, Cao Zhen and others? How could they possibly be a lieutenant now? You must know that what the Han Dynasty lacks the most is the general, and the captain is only one level lower than the general, that is to say, the captain is also a senior officer! After all, in the Han Dynasty, in peacetime, the Han Dynasty basically did not have generals. So in the Han Dynasty, the generals were still very popular.

As we all know, before Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, he was just a small captain. Since it is possible that it is Cao *, then the matter cannot be sloppy, Li Ziqiang immediately shouted: "Order, all soldiers are ready for battle, in addition, call Dian Wei, Pei Yuanshao, and Zhou Cang to the south city gate and assemble." ”

The scouts who were born in Li Ziqiang's own army immediately knew Li Ziqiang's methods and immediately went to gather troops.

Cao* looked at the cavalry of the forbidden army that was running, and sighed in his heart, "This is the real cavalry, if only I could have such a cavalry." ”

Of course, it was Cao*'s thoughts today that made the world-famous tiger and leopard ride appear.

Cao * said loudly to these cavalrymen: "Brothers, refuel a little, we will soon arrive at Anlu." Here, the captain promised that when he entered Anlu City, everyone would have fish and meat to eat. ”

The mouths of these soldiers had long since faded out of a bird, and when they heard Cao *'s reward, they all sobered up a lot, revealing a pair of eager eyes, and they immediately roared: "The great Han is mighty, the big Han is mighty." ”

Cao * saw that the active surnames of the soldiers were mobilized, and he also hit the railroad while it was hot: "Brothers, speed up, time is money now."

The soldiers immediately let out a burst of roars, and it felt like a group of old men who had been holding back for a long time, and they couldn't wait for that.

"Report."

Cao * waved his hand, and the forbidden army immediately stopped. The appearance of a strong army was immediately revealed. Cao* frowned and asked, "What happened?" ”

The scout immediately said, "Tell you, we found a military camp ahead!" ”

Cao* replied, "Oh. Barracks, do you know what they do? ”

The scout arched his hand and said, "My lord, they are a group of bandits, and there are quite a few of them, according to the size of the barracks, there must be at least three thousand people!" ”

Cao * showed a look of interest, and he asked, "How is the military camp of these bandits?" Can we eat them? ”

The scout pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Tell you, we can't defeat this gang of bandits!" Because they barracks are built on slopes! It is not conducive to the cavalry charge, and their defense is not a lot 2 too poor, if it weren't for my cleverness, I would have become a lonely soul a long time ago, so the success rate of our sneak attack is too low. And even if we sneak up on them, we'll pay a pretty price. ”

Cao * looked at the little soldier in front of him, and he actually said it in an orderly manner, and he was neither humble nor arrogant, and he was a person worth cultivating. So, Cao * said loudly: "Whose subordinates are that?" ”

This scout knew that his performance had impressed Cao*, and at least impressed him, so he said decisively: "The subordinate is the horsepower of the fifth squad of the scout team." ”

Cao * said lightly: "You, yes, just come and ask the soldiers!" ”

Ma Li said happily: "Thank you, my lord." ”

Cao* nodded and asked, "How far is that barracks from us?" ”

Ma Li restrained his smile and said to Cao *, "My lord, they are still about five miles away from here. ”

Cao* touched his beard, pondered for a while, and then said: "Come, herald, the army will take a detour, you can't disturb this gang of bandits, tomorrow, I want these to drain the blood in Anlu City." ”

In fact, the current Cao * doesn't know yet, his whereabouts have long been known to Li Ziqiang, if Cao * knows about this, I don't know if he will jump off the building. Of course, if there is a building.
