Chapter 390: Cao Zhi

Cao Ren's big tent Zhang Fei fought to the death Lu Bu's behavior was finally stopped by Zhang Ren, and both sides retreated with tacit understanding; Zhang Ren didn't dare to march rashly because he didn't know the reality of Cao Jun, and Cao Jun came here to contain Zhang Ren at all, and there were not many troops, which means that they were like a paper tiger at this moment, strong on the outside, and ruined on the inside; The reason why Cao Ren came so quickly with his troops was because he brought only 30,000 cavalry, and the remaining 150,000 troops were all under the control of Li Yu. Cao Ren's soldiers and horses focus on momentum, and the magic is in a deceptive word, while Li Yu's soldiers and horses pay attention to concealment, and the magic is in a fast word!

But Li Yu also knew that Zhang Ren or Xu Shu would soon find out about this matter and tell Cao Ren a way

As Li Yu expected, there was just a big battle with Cao Ren and Lu Bu here, and after returning to the camp, Xu Shu said suspiciously: "Why didn't you see Li Yu?" It stands to reason that Cao Ren's 180,000 troops have gathered in one place, and most of our troops have not yet been recovered, so he should take advantage of the victory to pursue and attack us! ”

"They were able to come so quickly, so quickly after breaking the Liao Hua Army, he came to our camp to challenge, I think this is obviously impossible! Then he really went out of two ways, and it was Cao Jun who came to us to feign to attract us! It's just hard to tell the number of these people, it's hard to start! ”

Zhang Ren looked at Xu Shu: "Is there any good way?" Strategist? ”

"That's easy, send a horse to attack them, and test it! Is General Taishi willing to go for it? Xu Shu said with a smile, he can't handle this little thing, so why talk about standing side by side with Zhuge ?

At night, the moon was high and the wind was thin, the weather was clear, Zhang Ren's north side of the barracks was opened, and a cavalry of 5,000 people rushed out in the starry night, walked around the camp and ran to the Cao army camp twenty miles away, Xu Shu also stepped on the high platform to look into the distance, and the generals around him were also on standby at any time, ready to rescue; Tai Shi Ci looked at Cao Jun on the lookout with a bow and arrow in his hand, and with a whoosh, the man fell to the ground without a trace of screams, and then five thousand Shu troops were killed

There's no one, they're all straw men! Tai Shi Ci shouted: "It's a trick!" The soldiers and horses quickly withdrew outward, and then Tai Shici blushed, where did the Cao army come from? There is not even a shadow of Cao Jun! It seems that Cao Jun has slipped away a long time ago!

The depressed Tai Shici went back to report the truth, and he was faintly unhappy in his heart, only feeling that there was something he couldn't vent; Xu Shu was also confused, so he had to ask: "How much is Cao Jun buried?" ”

"Five thousand stoves", Tai Shi Ci replied sullenly, Cao Jun's long-buried stoves were undoubtedly laughing at their slow response; "One stove is used for ten people to eat, so they came with 50,000 people?" , Zhang Ren muttered, and then raised his head: "Then how many tents are there?" ”

"Three hundred!" Tai Shi Ci replied, "What? This number makes people feel too exciting, a tent can accommodate a maximum of twenty people, which means that Cao Ren's soldiers and horses are only six thousand? That's, isn't it?

Which one to believe? This time it became a place where Zhang Ren and the others were puzzled; "Why don't you just send troops to chase them and try it?" , Zhang Fei dragged his sore arm and shouted, his voice was talented, and he didn't see hoarseness or broken sound after shouting for so long; The Shu army is now eager to know the number of Cao Ren's troops, so that they can defend against Li Yu, who doesn't know where he is, otherwise he will not die if he bites him!

While discussing, there was a shout of killing outside the door, and the situation was in a mess; "What's wrong? What's wrong? Zhang Ren shouted, and the herald outside the door hurriedly ran over: "Cao Jun attacked the camp, there are many people!" Cao Jun everywhere! General Zhang! Hurry up and get out! ”

"Bastard!" , Zhang Ren was furious, they didn't know how many people Cao Jun had in the dark night, and a rash retreat would only cause greater losses! "Immediately let the generals of all walks of life resist the Cao army and drive them out!"

Zhang Ren walked out of the tent in a huff, and what caught his eye was a white-haired man a hundred steps away, with a hideous expression: "Zhang Ren is dead!" ”

"The thief will go berserk! I'll fight you! Tai Shici doesn't care who the opponent is, so he draws the halberd, but how can the generals who have lost their war horses exert their full strength? But three moves are already a near-death life! Zhang Fei could only grit his teeth to hold on to the pain, and rushed up to fight Lu Bu to the death, all the wounds on his body that had just been bandaged collapsed, and blood flowed all over the ground!

Li Yu told Cao Ren that his plan was to flee away after a battle, leaving stoves, tents, etc. to confuse Xu Shu and the others so that they would not dare to attack rashly and drag them down, but Cao Ren had the audacity to change Li Yu's plan and play a night attack, which now seems to have worked well; One hit! The Shu army never expected that they were discussing how to eliminate him, but they were hit by him, seeing the Shu army coming in an orderly manner from all directions, Cao Ren knew that his strength was not as good as the Shu army, and decisively ordered: "Retreat!" Crossbowmen press the formation! ”

After a battle, the Shu army lost thousands of people, which is not much compared to the base of 100,000 people, but it is enough to make people feel heartache! The main thing is that after they are calculated, their morale falls again and again; "This is my fault, just thinking about how to deal with Li Yu, but forgetting that Cao Ren is also a general, and he has won more and lost less on the battlefield for many years, careless, careless!" , Zhang Ren took the initiative to shoulder the responsibility, in order to reduce the pressure on the generals under his command: "I will ask the lord for guilt!" But until the order arrives, I am still the commander of this army, and I hope that everyone will work together to defend against foreign enemies! ”

"No!" , everyone under his command made a sudden promise, and they were more convinced of Zhang Ren, at least this general is really fair, even if he makes a mistake, he will admit it; "Hehehe! I know that the number of Cao troops in front of me is not large! If Cao Ren doesn't fight with us, we won't know his strength, he is clever but he is clever and mistaken, Li Yu must let them draw our attention, and the best way to pull us is not to let us know his strength, but now"

Xu Shu suddenly laughed and stretched out three fingers: "He only has 30,000 people!" We were careless tonight, but if we find him tomorrow morning, we will be able to defeat him! Then he will be able to shift his attention from the south to the north and concentrate on dealing with Li Yu! ”

Three days later, Cao Ren was forced away by Xu Shu, and laughed heartlessly as he walked: "It's a big game!" Play big! Looks like I didn't understand what Mr. meant! ”

The reason why he behaved like this was because he withdrew his troops as soon as he saw that something was wrong, and he didn't lose much in terms of troops, plus these 30,000 people were all cavalry, with strong mobility and combat ability, Zhang Ren didn't dare to force them to the death, so he watched them go all the way north; They didn't go out of a hundred miles before they met Li Yu who rushed here, Li Yu had 50,000 cavalry and 100,000 infantry under his command, because of the drag of the infantry, plus he was also responsible for the baggage and something, the speed was very slow, so it was too late, if he was all cavalry, he would have arrived at Cao Ren a long time ago; Cao Ren came back and told him with a wry smile about all what happened to him, he is now the main general, and Li Yu can't punish him on his behalf, after all, he is now Cao Ren's deputy, the military advisor

After Cao Ren came, Li Yu decided to camp in Yongshun, and outside the big tent, Cao Zhang came in with a person, threw it to the ground with a snap, and roared: "Qu Yuan is quite Qu Yuan, don't come to the barracks!" ”

Cao Zhi is drunk again! This is not the first time! No wonder Cao Zhang is so angry, he has now been arranged by Li Yu to be under Xun Yu to help Cao Zhi clean up his mess; "If you don't get drunk with wine, everyone gets drunk", Cao Zhi's face was flushed, retching from time to time, and everyone in the big tent didn't dare to help him, because Li Yu's eyes were wide open, as if he wanted to eat people!

"Wake him up! Bastard thing! Li Yu roared, the generals looked at each other, Cao Zhang snorted angrily and carried a bucket of water from outside, and directly poured Cao Zhi into a soup chicken, others are afraid of Cao Cao but Cao Zhang is not afraid, at least Li Yu once told him a truth, what you can't get is precious!

Because Cao Zhang was passed on to Li Yu since he was a child, he broke off the father-son relationship with Cao Cao nominally from that moment on, and he has never called him a father for so many years, because of this, Cao Cao treats Cao Zhang better than anyone else, including Cao Zhi and Cao Chong, whom he has always loved!

Besides, now Cao Zhang is not unreasonable, Cao Zhi's behavior has corrupted military discipline, and alcohol is not allowed in the army, this is a clear rule and will be executed! Cao Zhi drank openly, and he mistook the transportation of grain and grass, which is already a mistake on top of a mistake, knowing the law and breaking the law, and it should be severely punished!

"Who? Who dares to splash me with water? Cao Zhi was not lightly drunk, he had just been poured into a soup chicken, and he was still a little drunk; Bastard thing! I'll kill you! How dare you break the law! Do you know how important it is to carry food and grass? He is concerned about the lives of more than 100,000 soldiers who fought bloodily on the front line! He also has a bearing on the direction of the entire battle! Do you want the prime minister's years of hard work to go to waste? Do you want to be a sinner under the power of the Prime Minister? ”

Li Yu was hoarse and almost roared, he had never seen such a ridiculous person, he was even more hateful than Chun Yuqiong back then!

Cao Zhi was excited, and when he saw Li Yu's angry eyes, he couldn't tell if Li Yu had the courage to kill him, so he knelt down and knelt down: "Uncle! I was wrong! I hope my uncle will forgive! ”

It is worthy of Cao Cao's kind of adaptability that is admirable, and his expression is calm, and there is no unbearable performance; "This is not the first time! How many more times would you like to have? Why can't you learn from Zhang'er? Why can't you learn from Pi'er? Look at your two brothers! Even if you are not talented, you can do anything seriously and diligently!

But you! Yes! Drunk gold fans, drunk all day long! You've wasted all your talent on dogs! What is the meaning of a poem? Yes? Lao Tzu can compose 300 poems in one breath! Do you believe it? Yes? Bastard thing! I really thought I was a green onion"; Li Yu pointed at Cao Zhi's nose and scolded for half an hour, and the people around him were chilled, who dared to interject! That is, he, Li Huaide, dared to teach the children of the prime minister's family such a lesson, who dared to say more?

"Cao Zhi! I remember that you are the prime minister's son, and I have always respected you, but your repeated performance has disappointed me so much! I don't want to give you another chance! Although I can't kill you, I still have to hand you over to the prime minister and let him make his own decisions! ”

Li Yu, who had been tired after scolding for a long time, sighed: "You go down!" I'll have someone escort you to Chaisang! Let's go down and prepare! ”

Cao Zhi was stunned for a moment, and then thought for a moment: "Can I talk to you alone?" ”

Li Yu nodded with a gloomy face, and dismissed the people around him, okay, he is quite bullish now, even the main general Cao Ren is looking at him, and after a while, everyone is gone, Li Yu stared at Cao Zhi: "You have talent to learn, but it's too disappointing!" ”

Cao Zhi lowered his head: "I know that you hate iron and steel, but my natural debauchery can only be like this!" I don't want to fight with my second brother now, but I don't want to die either."

Looking at Cao Zhi's eyes, Li Yu covered his forehead and stretched out his finger to point at him: "Tiger poison does not eat children, and the prime minister is not like this!" ”

"You know, that's not what I'm talking about!" , Cao Zhi said; "Cao Pi is kind by nature, he won't do anything to you! You can live with peace of mind and don't trouble me anymore! All right? Li Yu waved his hand; Cao Zhi nodded and smiled: "Actually, I also want to show my talent and work hard to do something, but I'm afraid of being hated by others, and I won't live long in the future. ”

"Huh?" , Li Yu raised his head in surprise and stared at Cao Zhi deadly, this kid really sees some things very thoroughly, he has already withdrawn from the competition for the son of the world since very early on, right? Li Yu thought that it seems that this prodigal son is not useless, and those who know how to give up will win more things!

"I now appoint you as the military commander, and follow me to participate in strategic decisions, this job may be a little easier! This is the last chance! I really can't tolerate your faults any longer! You should understand who I am! And as long as I'm alive for a day, you're guaranteed everything! ”

Li Yu undoubtedly promised Cao Zhi what to do in the future, got up and walked out, Li Yu: "Change your clothes and go"

Cao Zhi nodded and walked out, suddenly turning around and hesitating; Li Yu saw Cao Zhi's hesitation and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Is it true that you can compose 300 poems in one sitting?" , Cao Zhi's eyes widened, with anticipation and doubt; Li Yu grinned: "Three hundred songs may be bragging, thirty songs may be!" Get lost! Hurry up and change your clothes! ”
