For two consecutive days, the soldiers of the Cao army each received only half of the usual meals, how can they be full?

At this time, these people joined the army to eat mixed rice, and they could only come to the army if they could eat a mouthful of food, if they couldn't even eat enough, who would do this?

After two days of not having enough to eat, some people made trouble, and in the past few days, Cao's army was trapped in the camp, and before that, he had suffered defeats, and many people had already nested in their stomachs, and the fact that the rations were halved became an excuse for them to make trouble.

Many sergeants joined in this trouble, and even the generals Cao Ren and Xiahoudun couldn't suppress it, and the sergeants who made trouble poured into Cao Cao's Chinese army tent one after another, and a large area of black pressure was suppressed.

"What happened?" Cao Cao frowned and asked loudly.

Cao Ren hurriedly walked in from outside to report: "Prime Minister, the breakfast in the past two days is only half of the usual, the soldiers can't eat enough, and the noise is huge, and the bullet can't be suppressed!" ”

"What?" Cao Cao was shocked, he didn't expect that his order to halve the rations would cause such a big incident, his mind was spinning, and he immediately got up and walked out.

Outside the big tent, tens of thousands of horses gathered, and at a glance, all of them were black heads.

"Don't make any noise, the prime minister is out!"

"Prime Minister!"

"The prime minister wants to call the shots for us!" The sergeants shouted.

Cao Cao raised his hand, and the noise suddenly stopped, "I already know about the halving of the rations, and this matter must be done by the grain and grass officials!" Come on, go and bring the grain and grass officer! ”

Soon, the grain and grass officer was tied up and escorted to the sergeants.

"Prime Minister, spare your life, spare your life!"

Cao Cao glared at the grain and grass officer and said angrily: "Zhuzi, now my army is here to fight for rebellion, but you have halved the rations of the soldiers, it is really a crime that deserves death, how can I spare you?" He drew his sword and stabbed it into the chest of the grain and grass officer.

"You ······" Blood flowed from the corners of the grain and grass officer's mouth, and he couldn't say anything about what he said, so he struggled twice and broke his breath.

Cao Cao drew his sword, the grain and grass fell to the ground, he wiped the blood stains on the sword on his body, and said to the soldiers: "Gentlemen, the culprit has been executed by me, and I will order the new grain and grass officer to distribute enough food to the house, so that the princes will be fed and dispersed!" ”

When the sergeants heard him say this, they dispersed, and before long tens of thousands of men returned to their tents.

Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and returned to the camp, and the generals and strategists followed.

Cheng Yu stood up and said: "Prime Minister, according to the calculation of time, General Zhu went to borrow grain, and he should be almost coming back!" ”

In the morning, Qin Feng led his troops to provoke as usual, Cao Cao was short of food, how could he be in the mood to pay attention to him, and ignored his provocation.

After Qin Feng left, Cao Cao and the others were waiting for Zhu Ling to escort the grain and grass back, but they waited for a loneliness.

After Shen Shi, a knight galloped on horseback, ran into the camp and reported to Cao Cao: "Prime Minister Qiyu, General Zhu borrowed grain and grass from He's family, and was attacked by the Flame Army on the way back, our army desperately resisted and kept the grain and grass, and did not let the Flame Army succeed, but our army was also entangled by the Flame Army, and could not advance or retreat, General Zhu sent a villain to report to the Prime Minister, please send troops to the rescue quickly!" ”

After listening to the messenger's report, Cao Cao seemed to have a familiar feeling, and he immediately asked the messenger for details, confirming that Zhu Ling's current location was fifty miles to the southeast, and that there were about 2,000 Flame Troops who went to raid, and there was no problem with the identity of the messenger.

At this time, Xun You stood up and reminded: "Prime Minister, beware of the enemy's encirclement and reinforcements, and gradually encroach on our army!" ”

Cao Cao walked to the map and looked at it, fifty miles to the southeast, a flat river, only Zhu Ling's current location The terrain is slightly more complicated, and it is no wonder that the Flame Army will raid Zhu Ling's army there.

He turned his head and asked, "What time is it?" ”

"Back to the prime minister, the time of Shen has passed, and this is the beginning of the unitary time!" A scribe replied.

Cao Cao frowned and said: "This matter sent troops to rescue, but I am afraid that it will be dark before I reach the battlefield, the variables are too great, the danger is too high, and it is not suitable!" ”

Reinforcements must be sent, if this batch of grain is not transported back, it will have to run out of food after two days, although Qin Feng can surround the point to send reinforcements, but if Cao Cao sent enough soldiers and horses, and there is no terrain that can be ambushed along the way, then it is not a siege point to send reinforcements, but to touch the stones with eggs.

He instructed the messenger: "Bring in some food and drink a little water, and then ride back on a fast horse before dark to tell Zhu Ling that the enemy army is not many, let him guard the grain and grass and hold on all night, and tomorrow morning, I will send troops to the rescue!" ”

"No!" The messenger agreed and stepped back.

Early the next morning, after Cao Ren's 10,000 horses and horses were ready to set off to the southeast to rescue Zhu Ling, before they could set off, the defenders on the wall found Qin Feng's banner in the distance.

"Prime Minister, damn Qin Wuyi is here again with that rabble!" Xiahoudun reported to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao frowned, thought for a while, and immediately ordered: "All the soldiers will follow me to meet the enemy!" ”

10,000 horses followed Cao Cao and the generals of Cao's army out of the city before Qin Feng arrived.

"Uh······ Cao Apu's guts have become fat today, haha······ Well, I like it! ”

Qin Feng laughed loudly and waved his hand to the sergeants: "Keep up!" ”

When he came to Cao's camp, before Qin Feng could order the soldiers to set up their positions, Cao Cao directly pulled out his Qingyu sword and shouted: "All the soldiers, kill the enemy with me!" ”

"Kill-" More than 10,000 people of Cao's army launched an offensive charge on the whole front.

Qin Feng saw Cao Jun's momentum, and immediately let out a strange scream, riding a clawed Huang Feidian horse and turning around and leaving: "Cao Jun is fierce, go quickly!" ”

Three thousand rabble can't fight, but the ability to run is not much, and one by one they can run faster than rabbits.

After Cao Jun chased out a few miles, he killed more than 200 people and was stopped by Cao Cao, "No need to chase anymore, Zixiao, you must speed up the army to rescue Zhu Lingbu, you must bring back the grain and grass!" ”

"Yes!"

"Wait!"

"What else does the prime minister command?" Cao Ren asked.

Cao Cao pondered, he said: "We can't help but plan for the worst, if the Zhu Ling Department has suffered an accident and the grain and grass are missing, how will you act after you lead the army to arrive?" ”

Cao Ren knew that the purpose of his trip was grain and grass, and if he didn't bring back grain and grass, it would be useless for him to lead the army back, so he immediately said: "The last general will raise grain nearby!" ”

Cao Cao nodded, acquiescing in Cao Ren's plan.

Just after noon in the afternoon, Cao Ren rushed to the location of Zhu Lingbu with his army, but he only saw the corpses in one place, 3,000 people, all of whom died here, and the grain, grass, vehicles, and horses were nowhere to be found, and the enemy even took away the armor, weapons, bows, crossbows, and arrows from these corpses.

Cao Ren's face turned blue with anger, "Damn, hateful!" ”

A small colonel came over on a horse to report: "General, a large number of horseshoe prints were found, it should be that a large number of cavalry came to attack the back of Zhu Ling's army!" ”
