Chapter 160: Doubts
Cao Cao looked at the departing hostage, squinted his eyes slightly, and said to the people below: "As you said, Xuzhou is no longer possible, I should withdraw my troops and return to Yanzhou, and then plan another plan when Yanzhou is completely stabilized!" ”
Xi Zhicai nodded and agreed: "The lord is wise, but now Liyi and Lu Bu join forces, and they will retreat rashly, and they will inevitably come to chase, and the lord can first order the two generals Yuan Rang and Wen Ze, each with 10,000 troops, and ambush them in the middle of the road overnight."
When the army retreats tomorrow, the enemy army will not come to pursue, if it comes to pursue, it will take advantage of the situation to kill, the enemy army will be defeated, and there will be no more pursuit! ”
Cao Cao nodded in agreement after hearing this: "Just according to Mr.'s words!" After speaking, he turned his head to Xiahoudun and Yu Ban, who were sitting on the right side, and instructed: "You and the two of you immediately reorganize the soldiers and horses, bring enough dry food, quietly lie halfway, and act according to the plan!" ”
Xiahoudun and Yu Ban got up at the same time to receive the order, and then strode away.
Cao Cao continued to order: "Xiahou Yuan, Li Dian, Cao Hong, and you will lead 20,000 troops, and they will be replaced tomorrow before my battle!" ”
The three of them got up together and took the promise.
"Cao Ren listens to orders!"
"In!"
Cao Cao looked at Cao Ren with a satisfied expression, nodded and said, "Withdraw the army tomorrow, after you lead 10,000 troops!" ”
"Yes!"
"The rest of the people, each performing their duties, straightening out the troops and horses, waiting for me to lead the troops to leave tomorrow, cover the baggage and retreat first, there must be no mistake!"
"No!" Everyone stood up together and received the order!
……
Cao Cao agreed to change people, so that Hu Qin successfully completed the task, and all the way back was happy, and when he arrived at the camp, he directly asked to see Lu Yi.
Lu Yi saw the joy on Hu Qian's face and asked, "But does Cao Cao agree?" ”
Hu Zhen bowed respectfully to Lu Yi, and then recounted in detail what happened in Cao Ying, including Cao Cao's solicitation of himself, all of which were true.
Hearing Cao Cao's solicitation of hostages, Lu Yi smiled slightly, according to historical records, Hu Zhen was Cao Cao's overseer, and it seems that there is no chance this time.
Lu Yi nodded and replied: "Cao Cao is cunning, if you want to do a plan to divide the world, you can stick to your heart and not be moved, very good!"
This time, Cao Ying sent the letter, and the completion was excellent, and he was still under the jurisdiction of Koji Yan as the chief of the soldiers, and he was rewarded with a pair of leather armor as a reward! ”
The personal soldiers under Koji Yi, including Guan Hai, are all under the command of Koji Yan, and Shi Chang can manage ten people according to the military system of the Han Dynasty, although the number is not large, but you must know that Koji has only fifty pro-soldiers in total, which has a different meaning.
The length of the pro-soldier illustrates Koji's recognition of the quality.
After hearing this, Hu Zhen was very excited and hurriedly thanked him.
Lu Yi summoned Koji Yan, explained the promotion, and then ordered him to send people into the city, inform Tao Qian of tomorrow's replacement, and ordered Cheng Gongying, Sun Gan, Zhang He, Tai Shici, as well as Kong Rong and Lu Bu to invite to discuss the matter.
Cao Cao agreed to change people, but Cao Cao has always been scheming and must not be guarded against.
It didn't take long for Cheng Gongying and a few people to arrive first, and Koji Yi ordered a few people to sit down and wait for Kong Rong and Lu Bu.
After a while, Kong Rong and Lu Bu also arrived one after another, and Lu Yi got up to greet each other, and the three of them greeted each other and sat down as guests.
Lu Yi waited for everyone to do a good job, and said: "Cao Cao has agreed to change people outside Tan County at noon tomorrow, and I will order people to enter the city to inform Tao Fujun so that he can get ready."
It's just that Cao Cao was treacherous, and he didn't prevent him from cheating in the exchange process, so he invited the two to discuss it to determine a countermeasure! ”
Kong Rong and Lu Bu were not surprised that Cao Cao agreed to change people, although Cao Cao's exchange of two for one seemed to be a loss, but anyone with a discerning eye knew that it was Koji Yi who really suffered.
Guan Cheng and Mi Fangjia together, in the eyes of outsiders, they can't compare to a Lejin.
Kong Rong thought for a while and said: "Since the two sides have agreed to change people, in front of everyone's eyes, Cao Cao may not dare to cheat, otherwise it will hurt his reputation, if this is the case, Cao will be captured in the future, and I am afraid that no one will dare to exchange with him, and the gains outweigh the losses!"
Therefore, in my opinion, what needs to be guarded against is not when the person is replaced, but after the person is replaced! ”
Lu Yi agreed very much with Kong Rong's words, and just wanted to speak, but heard Lu Bu snort coldly: "In my opinion, why is it so troublesome, when I change people tomorrow, I will personally lead my subordinates to kill, first take Guan and Mi two generals to rob, and then wave the army to directly rush to kill, and defeat Cao Thief in one fell swoop, isn't it beautiful?" ”
After hearing this, Lu Yi's eyelids jumped involuntarily, and he finally understood why Lu Bu was still defeated by Cao Cao with the help of Chen Gong in history, and ended up dying in Baimenlou.
This guy is not only brave and unscrupulous, but also extremely conceited!
Lu Yi was afraid that Lu Bu would really kill him when he replaced him tomorrow, and he would kill Guan Cheng and Mi Fang's lives in vain, so he immediately smiled and said: "Wen Hou is a little restless, Cao Cao has already known that Wen Hou is coming, he must be afraid in his heart, so when exchanging, he will take strict precautions, if there is a slight negligence, I am afraid that the lives of the two generals will be injured, and the gains outweigh the losses, and it is not easy to explain to the Mi family!" ”
Lu Bu smiled proudly when he heard Lu Yi say that Cao Cao was afraid of him, and when he heard that it was not good to explain to the Mi family, he nodded and said: "In this case, the general will be in charge!" ”
Lu Yi arched his hand with a smile and said, "Tomorrow, I will rely on Wen Hou to deter Xiao Xiaocai!" ”
Lu Bu was a little fluttering by Ko Yi, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, general, if there is a certain family, it will definitely not be called Cao thief rampant!" ”
Kong Rong sat on the side, watching the two answer correctly, with a meaningful smile on his face.
After Lu Yi and Lu Bu finished politely, they looked at Cheng Gongying on the other side and asked, "What do you think about the military advisor?" ”
Cheng Gongying smiled when he heard this: "In my opinion, after Cao Cao is replaced, he will definitely withdraw his troops!" ”
Hearing Cheng Gongying say that Cao Cao withdrew his troops, including Lu Yi, everyone in the tent was stunned, and Kong Rong asked anxiously: "Cheng Gongjunshi, what do you mean by this?" ”
Cheng Gongying gestured to Kong Rong and said: "Back to the palace, Cao Thief has newly acquired Yanzhou, the foundation is unstable, and the brutal killing of Yanzhou celebrities and celebrities has made the Yanzhou family and celebrities everyone in danger, and the undercurrent is surging."
Now my lord and the king, Wen Hou, together with the leader of the army, the three joined forces, making it impossible for Cao thieves to occupy Xuzhou, and if they are delayed in Xuzhou for a long time, Yanzhou is very likely to change, and then Cao thieves will have no place to stay!
Because of this, I asserted that tomorrow the replacement of the two sides will end, and the Cao thief will lead the troops and leave! ”
After listening to Gongying's explanation, everyone suddenly realized, but Lu Bu suddenly got up and shouted: "Cao thief is hateful, and he must not be allowed to escape!" ”
Xi Zhicai looked at Lu Bu's eyes narrowed slightly, and pretended to sigh: "Cao Thief is quite decisive, if he decides to withdraw his troops, most of General Koji's subordinates are infantry, and I am afraid that he will not be able to catch up, and he will be able to escape!" ”
After hearing this, Lu Bu laughed and said: "What's so difficult about this, the koji general is also infantry, but most of my accounts are cavalry, if the Cao thief does not flee tomorrow, if it is really as the military adviser said to withdraw the troops, I should pursue the subordinates of my cronies, and I will not let the Cao thief escape!" ”
Cheng Gongying smiled slightly after hearing this, and praised Lu Bu: "If you have to go to Wen Hou in person, Cao thief will have no escape!" ”
Lu Yi on the side looked at Cheng Gongying and Lu Bu, and secretly doubted in his heart.
