Chapter 31: Ambush
"Why do you think of me like that?"
Sending off Hua Xiong's messenger, Ding Chen returned to the big tent.
It's just that as soon as I walked in, I felt that Gao Shun and Yang Aruo's gaze was very strange.
On the contrary, Jia Xu looked very normal, even with some appreciation.
Hearing Ding Chen speak, Gao Shun blushed and said, "Lord, we have been in Hucheng Pavilion for more than ten days, except for the wind and sand, where have we seen the trace of half of the rebels?" Moreover, Hu Zhen died in battle, and the situation in Yangren Pass was bound to be tense, so why not ask the Great Governor to fight and go to Yangren Pass to kill the enemy? I'm going crazy with nothing to do here all day......"
"Who says there's nothing to do?"
Ding Chen looked surprised, "I didn't know that you were so idle."
In this case, when I went out just now, I saw that the back camp was a little messy. You take someone to clean up, and by the way, the whole camp will be cleaned up...... By the way, I will go to check before lunch, and if it is not clean, no one is allowed to eat. ”
"Huh?"
Looking at Ding Chen's fierce appearance, Gao Shun was stunned.
"Look at what I'm doing, don't go quickly."
"The last general, obey!"
Gao Shun felt that he was about to die of grievance.
Waiting for Gao Shun and Yang Aruo to leave, Ding Chen sat down and sat down on the couch, looking weak.
"Sir, I can't go on this day.
The Yangrenguan battle was in full swing, and even Hua Xiong couldn't help but run to the battle.
But here, I'm so cold that I can't even see a mouse...... Sir, do you think the coalition forces will really attack Hucheng Pavilion? ”
Not to mention Gao Shun's grievances, Ding Chen is also uncomfortable.
The camp is now like being exiled, doing nothing all day.
He wants to make meritorious contributions, he wants to behead Qingshou, and then leave Luoyang with Sister A and return to his hometown to live happily.
Even if it is farming facing the loess with its back to the sky, it is better than being in Luoyang City, worrying and intriguing all day long.
However, stationed in Hucheng Pavilion, where did the war exploits come from?
Ding Chen's irritability was well covered by him.
However, Jia Xu knows very well that his current state is ......
For the generals, even if Mount Tai collapses in front of him, the color will not change!
This is a quality that a master will have to have. There is a way, the general is the soul of the soldier. If even the chief generals are starting to get restless, then how can the generals and soldiers below stay calm? Of course, this is easier said than done.
Ding Chen did a good job!
At least in Jia Xu's opinion, he did a great job.
"Ziyang, have you ever thought about what to do if the person who sneaks up on you is your acquaintance?"
"Acquaintances?"
Ding Chen was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Mr. said that he was joking, how can there be any acquaintances of mine in the coalition army?" ”
Before he could say this, he was suddenly stunned and looked at Jia Xu.
"Don't look at me, I don't know.
However, from what I know about the princes of the coalition army, I am afraid that they do not have this knowledge. I'll think about it, just in case ......"
"No way!"
Before Jia Xu finished speaking, Ding Chen interrupted him irritably.
Walking back and forth anxiously in the big tent, he stopped after a moment and forced a smile: "Sir, don't scare me, my brother-in-law loves my sister very much, and he loves Ang very much...... When he failed to assassinate and escaped, he had to do it as a last resort. Now, he should be very clear about the situation of Sister Ah and Ang. If he really joins the coalition, how should Sister Ah and Ang deal with themselves?
Impossible, impossible......"
Ding Chen reversed himself and emphasized repeatedly.
Jia Xu didn't say another word, just looked at him quietly.
This also made Ding Chen more and more restless, he stopped suddenly, his eyes were red, and his eyes were fierce.
"If he does, I'll kill him."
In fact, he has always had this concern.
Cao Cao's temperament, Ding Chen is no stranger.
At that time, Xu Zijiang pointed to the stars and commented that Cao Cao was: a capable minister who governs the world, and a traitor in troubled times.
Cao Cao listened to it and laughed heartily.
That is a very ambitious person, and the greatest wish in this life is to be able to be like Ban Chao, expedition to the Western Regions, and make contributions.
Will he miss an opportunity like today's?
Although he had never heard from Cao Cao, Ding Chen had a hunch: Cao Cao probably would not sit idly by.
It's just that he hasn't thought about it well, and even deliberately avoided this problem.
Now that Jia Xu has made his words clear, he is actually forcing Ding Chen to make up his mind.
After Ding Chen finished saying the words 'I will kill him', he rubbed his cheeks vigorously.
"I will kill him, I will kill him.
Well, I'll cut off his head with my own hands. ”
Jia Xu stood up, walked to Ding Chen's side, and gently patted him on the shoulder.
"Ziyang, what I just said is just a possibility, you don't have to take it to heart."
"Hmm!"
Ding Chenqiang laughed, trying to calm down his emotions, but said in a trembling voice: "Sir, I wasn't joking just now.
If he dares to do this, I will kill him. ”
In his eyes, a flash of water flashed.
Ding Chen's feelings for Cao Cao are very complicated.
He respected him and admired him...... Once upon a time, Cao Cao was a hero in his mind that no one could replace.
Can ...... now
Just as he was about to say something more, there was a rush of footsteps outside the tent.
"Report!"
A long voice rang out outside the tent.
Immediately after, a scout stumbled in, knelt on one knee, and said loudly: "Qi Ding Zhonglang, I found the traces of the rebels, and I am approaching the Hucheng Pavilion." ”
Ding Chen shuddered, let go of Jia Xu, turned to the scout, and pulled him up.
"You can see the banner clearly, who are the soldiers and horses?"
"Hui Zhonglang, it is the department of Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei."
"Really?"
"Absolutely."
Ding Chen breathed a sigh of relief and turned his head to look at Jia Xu.
The meaning is clearly to Jia Xu: See, I said, my brother-in-law will never ignore the safety of my sister and go to serve the coalition army.
Jia Xu also laughed!
Sometimes, Ding Chen is so childish.
To be honest, he is not the kind of person who can achieve great things.
But Jia Xu just likes his childishness! When he saw Ding Chen for the first time outside the gate of Cao's Mansion, he thought this kid was very interesting. Obviously, he could break through and escape by himself, but he desperately wanted to cover his sister to escape.
Silly!
But it is this stupidity that makes Jia Xu willing to approach him and help him.
Perhaps, this is called fate.
Jia Xu was also very happy in his heart, happy that Ding Chen didn't have to be so painful.
He stepped forward and asked in a deep voice, "How many rebels are there?" Who is in command? How far is it from Hucheng Pavilion? ”
Ding Chen can be childish, but Jia Xu can't.
The scout hurriedly said: "Back to Mr. Jia, there are about 1,000 rebel vanguards, look at the banner, and the surname of the leader is Yu."
Now, they have crossed the gutter water and arrived at Huanyong City. If they don't stop, it is expected that they will be able to reach Hucheng Pavilion before the hour. ”
At this time, Ding Chen had completely calmed down.
He didn't speak again, but let Jia Xu ask carefully, and he only listened from the sidelines.
After the scout finished speaking, Ding Chen looked at Jia Xu.
"It should be the pioneer battalion, and the one surnamed Yu is afraid that he is the same as you, and he is the Sima of the other department of Jibei Prime Minister Bao Xin."
"In other words, this pioneer battalion is just exploring the way, and there are large groups of people behind it?"
"Are you afraid?"
Ding Chen laughed and said, "I'm just afraid that Bao Xin won't come."
It would be best if he came in person, and I would use him to get the first rank in exchange for my sister's freedom.
However, this pioneer battalion should not be taken lightly. What I mean is to fight first, and then retreat to the camp and wait for the opportunity to move. ”
Jia Xu thought for a while, nodded and said, "Good!" ”
As he spoke, he walked over to the map in the tent and stood still.
Ding Chen said to Hu Che'er at the door of the big tent: "Hu Che'er, immediately summon Gao Shun and Yang Aruo to come to discuss the matter." ”
"Yes, no need to call, it's all here."
Before he finished speaking, Gao Shun had already appeared outside the big tent door.
How could Gao Shun not be aware of such a big movement of the scout just now?
He stayed outside the big tent early, just waiting for Ding Chen's call.
Ding Chen also smiled, pointed at the two of them, and motioned for the two of them to come in.
"Hu Che'er, guard outside the big tent, no one is allowed to approach."
"Whoa!"
Hu Che'er turned around and walked out of the big tent, and Gao Shun and Yang Aruo immediately stepped forward.
"Ziyang, how do you want to fight?"
Ding Chen closed his eyes and pondered, and then spoke: "First kill the pioneer battalion, knock the mountain and shock the tiger." ”
Jia Xu's eyes showed appreciation.
In his bones, Ding Chen is definitely a very decisive person.
Once you have made up your mind, you will not waver......
"Jibei Prime Minister Bao believes in this person, and I also know a little.
This man is ambitious, generous and loving, and calm and resolute, and has a small strategy.
But this time, I really underestimated him...... Bao Xin is calm, and he likes to work step by step when encountering problems.
It seems that this sudden surprise attack was somewhat unexpected to me.
He had come from afar, unguarded, and clearly confident. The more this is the case, the more you have to teach him a lesson.
Ziyang, coming from Huanyong City, must pass through Goat.
The roads here are narrow and wooded. In my opinion, Gao Shun can make 300 traps ambush here.
You will take a hundred new dings and go around behind the rebels in Jibei. After Gao Shun leads his troops to attack, you can take advantage of the chaos from the rear and attack back and forth...... Although the rebels in Jibei are twice as large as me, they can be defeated in one battle, so that the rebels dare not advance......
Ziyang, Ziyang? ”
Jia Xu made suggestions, and Gao Shun and Yang Aruo listened very carefully.
However, he found that Ding Chen was in a trance, as if he was wandering.
"Huh?"
Ding Chen heard Jia Xu's call and quickly came to his senses.
He nodded and said, "Just according to Mr.'s words." ”
"Did you hear me what I just said?"
Ding Chen glanced at the map and said, "You let Lao Gao ambush in Goat's Pit, and I led my foot to ride around Goat's Ridge and ambush in the rear of the rebels." After taking Lao Gao to attack, I took advantage of the chaos to kill and attack back and forth...... I'm listening, sir. ”
"Hehe, it's good to understand!"
Ding Chen said: "Since this is the case, then let's prepare separately." ”
Gao Shun and Yang Aruo intervened to receive the order and bowed down.
Ding Chen stood in front of the map, staring blankly at the map. Jia Xu found that his gaze was a little scattered, as if he had something on his mind.
"Ziyang, are you okay?"
"Ah, I'm fine!" Ding Chen came back to his senses, scratched his head and smiled.
"Sir, don't worry about me, I'm fine.
However, I thought of some things just now, so I was a little distracted, so I ask for your forgiveness...... Okay, I'm going to do some preparations, so I'll take my leave. ”
After speaking, he arched his hand to Jia Xu, and strode out of the big tent.
Looking at his back, Jia Xu showed a thoughtful expression.
He knew that Ding Chen must have something on his mind...... Moreover, he also vaguely guessed Ding Chen's thoughts!
