The camp outside Jiangxia City of Cao Jun was brightly lit, and the patrolling soldiers inspected every corner of Cao's camp in an orderly manner. The slogans in the army had to be changed every two hours, mainly to identify whether they were their own personnel, so as to prevent the enemy's meticulous work from mixing into the barracks and sabotaging them. After all, in a barracks of 100,000 people, it is impossible for everyone to know the soldiers on patrol. If you don't have a password to identify it, it's a simple thing to mix in and out of detail. Although Cao Jun is now powerful, he is not afraid of those rats and dogs. However, Cao Cao's military law was strict, and even when there was no war in peacetime, the soldiers in Cao's battalion were required to do business as usual as in wartime. It is precisely such strict military discipline that ensures that Cao's army always maintains a strong combat effectiveness.

Cao Cao's tent was located in the middle of Cao's camp. The periphery of the tent was guarded by Cao Cao's personal guards. There are also tiger and leopard riders patrolling the camp around the area. Cao Cao is a very suspicious person, and he is also a person who cherishes his life very much, especially as his body has aged day by day over the years, and the fear of death is better than day by day. In order to prevent the assassination of their people, Cao Cao's personal protection work has become more and more rigorous over the years.

The night was dark, but Cao Cao couldn't sleep tonight. At this time, he looked a little tired sitting in the handsome position, his gray beard trembled slightly, and his face was cloudy. He closed his eyes weakly, meditated for a while, opened his eyes again, waved his hand, and said to the two kneeling at the bottom of the stairs: "Don't kneel, get up!" ”

"Prime Minister Xie!" The two people under the stairs were dressed in military uniforms, and they were about thirty years old. Their long military career has made their skin look a little rough. But this roughness makes the two seem to have a different kind of fortitude than others.

"Zhen'er, let's talk about it! What the hell is going on? "That's right, the person below the steps is Cao Cao's deputy commander of the tiger and leopard cavalry, Cao Zhen. This interception and killing of Zhou Yu was planned by him. Young Master Zhuge and his gang always thought that it was the killers organized by the Jiangdong Black Panther Battalion of the Cao Army who intercepted and killed Zhou Yu, but in fact, they didn't know that the Black Panther Battalion had lost a lot of good hands due to the failure of the last few operations. At this time, the organization of the Cao Army's Black Panther Battalion on the ground in Jiangdong no longer had the ability to organize an interception and killing activity of this scale. What's more, their opponent is still the most courageous in the Jiangdong Army, Zhou Yu's personal guards. Therefore, in order to ensure the success of this interception activity, Cao Cao made an exception this time to use the tiger and leopard cavalry who specializes in battlefield fighting to complete the interception work. The Panthers are responsible for transmitting information, setting routes, and covering retreats.

Prior to this operation, in order to ensure the success of the interception operation, Cao Jun had conducted repeated drills and simulations. The location of the interception was also specially chosen in the valley where it was very easy to ambush. The valley is the Bing road from the camp of the Poyang Water Division in Jiangdong to return to Chaisang, the valley is wide enough for the cavalry to carry out the charge, and the narrow roads at the valley at both ends can block the counter-breakthrough of the Wu army to the greatest extent.

I thought that this operation would be a success. But unexpectedly, the ending disappointed Cao Cao. Not to mention that more than half of the tiger and leopard riders on the mission were lost, and the deputy commander Cao Zhen not only failed to kill Zhou Yu, but also almost put himself in it. This can be said to be a fiasco that the Haw Par Rider has never had since its formation.

"This ...... We're on the verge of success! Zhou Yu's guards have all been wiped out! But...... "Cao Zhen has never been so depressed as he is today. Cao Zhen's father was Cao Cao's younger brother and followed Cao Cao very early. In the process of recruiting soldiers and horses for Cao Cao, he died in the line of duty. Cao Cao took pity on Cao Zhen for losing his father at a young age, so he took him into the mansion to raise him. Cao Zhen has been smart since childhood, joined the army in the year of the weak crown, and followed Cao Cao in the southern and northern wars for more than ten years, and has repeatedly performed miraculous feats. Cao Cao called the Qianli Horse in the Cao Family.

Originally, it was not difficult for Cao Cao to arrange this interception and killing of Zhou Yu, although Zhou Yu was the commander of Jiangdong. However, for the tiger and leopard cavalry, it was not difficult to intercept and kill the cavalry of the Wu army on land. During the Three Kingdoms period, although the elite of the Wu army's naval army was beyond the reach of the northern army. But if these ducks land, they become vulnerable. This is also the reason why the Wu army's many northern expeditions after the Chibi War have ended in failure - the army's combat effectiveness is too poor.

But Cao Zhen never dreamed that what should have been done smoothly would actually be a sideshow, and the sudden reinforcements of the Wu army made Ji Lu's achievements fall short.

"But what?" Cao Cao didn't like to excuse himself after his subordinates failed, which he saw as a sign of shirking responsibility. Especially since this person is Cao Zhen, who he values very much, this is even more intolerable. Cao Cao's voice was obviously raised, and although he tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart, the anger still had the potential to gush out.

"Halfway through, the reinforcements of the Wu army suddenly came out, and we were caught off guard!" Cao Zhen lowered his head after speaking. Although there was a sudden situation that made the mission fall short. But the defeat to the Wu army in the land battle made Cao Zhen feel very embarrassed. In particular, he brought the most elite tiger and leopard rider in Cao's army.

"Reinforcements? How many people are there? "Cao Cao is not an arbitrary person, no matter what the situation, he can keep the maximum calm. This is one of the secrets of his success. Blindly disposing of one's subordinates without understanding the causes and consequences will not only fail to achieve the role of punishing the former and the latter, but will often backfire and cause the subordinates to be unbusy. Cao Cao is clear about this.

"About twenty or thirty people!"

"What? Twenty or thirty men will repel you? Are you all rice buckets? After hearing this, Cao Cao stood up suddenly, his anger burning and his beard trembling slightly. Still fucking reinforcements, how much do I think? Twenty or thirty people are also fucking reinforcements?

"Originally, there was nothing to be afraid of! However, their leader was extremely strong, and rushed into the ranks of our cavalry in the first place, and the flying needle in one hand made it extremely fine, and no sergeant was spared wherever he passed. This led to the rout of our army! Seeing that there was nothing to do, and he was afraid that there would be a large army of the Wu army behind, he had to order a retreat. Cao Zhen described the situation to Cao Cao in detail.

Cao Cao nodded after hearing this, so that's the case, "How old is that person?" What is the appearance? ”

"Six or seven years old! Shape, too far away, can't see clearly! ”

"What? Six or seven years old? Did I hear it wrong, or did you say it wrong? "Cao Zhen's words are too weird. To any normal person, it sounds like a fantasy. How capable can a six- or seven-year-old child be? Still flying needles to kill? ! Cao Cao now seriously suspects that Cao Zhen is deliberately and shirks responsibility.

"Prime Minister, what the last general said is true! A six- or seven-year-old indeed! Cao Zhen knelt down abruptly and replied solemnly.

Looking at Cao Zhen's appearance, it doesn't look like he's lying, Cao Cao himself is also suspicious, could it be that there is really such a strange thing in this world? It is not uncommon for people to be wise since ancient times. At the age of twelve, Ganluo of the Qin Dynasty was worshiped as a secretary by the King of Qin because of his outstanding talent. But that's intellectual, after all. To say how high a six- or seven-year-old child can be in martial arts, and come and go freely in the army of ten thousand horses, it is pure nonsense! The level of martial arts based on a strong body is different from the cultural level based on intellectual development, and a six- or seven-year-old child cannot be compared with an adult in terms of speed and strength, let alone dealing with so many experienced military players? But Cao Zhen swore so much, it didn't look like a lie! What's going on here? Cao Cao was hesitant.

One of the generals sitting down the stairs got up, knelt down, and said loudly: "Prime Minister, General Zidan is not lying, this kid has also seen it!" ”

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked!
