Chapter 79: Tiger and Leopard Ride
"Come on, go and get this rebel back for me......"
"Slow, stand down!"
In the last second, he was shouting for people to arrest Cao Pi back;
But in the next second, it was to let the guards who came back retreat.
Such behavior is enough to reflect Cao Cao's inner contradictions.
As for Xun Yu, after seeing Cao Cao's reaction like this.
Although he didn't say anything, he also knew what Cao Cao meant.
That is, striking Cao Pi at this point in time is a major blow to both Cao Pi's prestige and confidence in Cao Pi.
And Cao Cao, since he wants to test Cao Pi.
Then Cao Pi cannot be punished in the process of assessment.
Everything has to wait until the end of the assessment!
Thinking of this, Xun Yu spoke:
"Please rest assured, everything is just speculation, I believe that Zihuan Gongzi is not that kind of person!"
"Besides, with Wen Ruo and General Cao Hong assisting from the side, Qingzhou must be fine!"
On the surface, Xun Yu was saying that Xun You and Cao Hong would help Cao Pi.
But the actual meaning is to say.
With Xun You and Cao Hong looking at Cao Pi, then next, Cao Pi must not dare to come nonsense.
Sure enough, I listened to Xun Yu's words.
Cao Cao's mood only improved slightly.
The other side.
Cao Zhi and the four of them, after leaving the north gate of Yecheng.
He hurriedly rode to the garrison of Cao Ren's army.
As soon as I arrived at the station.
Cao Zhi saw that Cao Ren was on a high platform at this time, inspecting people.
Below Cao Ren.
On an open field.
Ten thousand infantrymen were armoured and armed with spears.
Murderous, not angry and self-assured.
At first glance, he is a veteran of a hundred battles.
And beside the infantry, there were three thousand cavalrymen on tall horses.
A third of these cavalrymen were extremely tall, heavily armoured, and humanoid like tanks.
As for the remaining two-thirds of the cavalry, they were dressed in light armor and much shorter, but they were more flexible.
"Tiger and leopard riding, it turned out to be tiger and leopard riding!"
The moment he saw the cavalry, Cao Zhang blurted out.
"They're the legendary tiger and leopard riders?"
Listening to Cao Zhang's words, Cao Zhi was also a little excited at this time.
You must know that the tiger and leopard cavalry is the most elite cavalry under Cao Cao.
It can even be said that it is the most powerful cavalry in the entire Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty.
Even if Cao Cao is so powerful now, the tigers and leopards that can be supported are only ten thousand horses.
Originally, Cao Zhi heard that Cao Cao only gave him 3,000 cavalry.
In Cao Zhi's heart, he was still complaining about Cao Cao's stinginess.
But now, after seeing Cao Cao give him 3,000 cavalry, which turned out to be the legendary tiger and leopard horseman, Cao Zhi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "The boss is magnificent!" ”。
However, since this tiger and leopard ride was encountered by himself, there is no reason to return it.
As soon as he thought of this, Cao Zhi's heart began to think about how to get the command of the tiger and leopard riding in his hands.
Just when Cao Zhi was thinking about how to get the tiger and leopard ride in his hands.
Cao Ren's side has already finished his lecture.
"Mr. Jia, the third son, and the fourth son, you are here!" Cao Ren hugged his fists.
Because this place is a military camp.
Therefore, Cao Ren's address to Cao Zhi and the others was very scene, and he did not oppress people with the identity of his uncle.
"General Cao, how is the army preparing?" Cao Zhi said with a smile.
"Back to the fourth son, because the enemy of this attack is Youzhou, not far from Jizhou, so Sikong ordered that in Jizhou, the grain and grass will be prepared by officials along the way, and when you arrive in Youzhou, the army can take food by itself!"
"As for the men and horses, 10,000 foot soldiers, plus 3,000 tigers and leopards to ride, have been assembled!"
Cao Ren said loudly.
"Hmm!" Cao Zhi nodded, and then said:
"General Cao, I wonder if my father told you the command of this army?"
"Fourth son, Sikong told me last night that the main commander of this march is you, and my task is to obey."
"Of course, this is if you don't make a mistake."
"If I find out that you have a big mistake, then I can regain military power at any time, and the moment I propose to regain military power, it is the moment you fail the assessment!"
Cao Hong concisely recounted Cao Cao's orders to Cao Zhi.
Seeing this, Cao Zhi couldn't help but nod secretly, expressing his approval of Cao Cao's order.
That is, the command of the army, I can hand it over to you, but you can't mess around.
If you dare to come here, I will immediately return to command.
In doing so, Cao Zhi and Cao Pi can play with peace of mind, and can effectively avoid large-scale losses.
It can be said that it is quite insured.
Of course, there is an important premise for Cao Cao to dare to do this.
That is, Cao Ren and Cao Hong are loyal enough to Cao Cao and will not take refuge in either Cao Zhi or Cao Pi.
After understanding Cao Cao's intentions.
Cao Zhi was immediately overjoyed.
Because, from this moment on.
The command of the thirteen,000 troops in front of him is in his own hands.
As soon as he thought of this, Cao Zhi immediately said:
"Cao Zhang, listen to the order, now I appoint you as the commander of the tiger and leopard cavalry, and command all the tiger and leopard cavalry here!"
With one mouth, he handed over the command of the tiger and leopard ride to Cao Zhang.
Seeing Cao Zhi's target, he pointed directly at the tiger and leopard ride.
Cao Ren pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice:
"Zijian, I advise you not to do this!"
"Oh?" Cao Zhi was puzzled.
"This tiger and leopard ride is the elite of the elite in Sikong's hands, and he is very loyal to Sikong, and at present, the ten thousand tigers and leopards in Sikong's hands are all in charge of Cao Chun."
"Therefore, these tiger and leopard riders only recognize Sikong and Cao Chun, and no one else recognizes them, even Cao Hong and I have only obtained the temporary right to command the army, and they have to say good things to their commanders before they will cooperate with me!"
"As soon as you come up, let Ziwen take over the military power, doing so, not only will not get their approval, on the contrary, it will also stimulate their rebellious mentality, when the time comes, you will lose face, not to mention, in case you go to the battlefield, they will not work, it will be a great disadvantage to you!"
Cao Ren this time, he called Cao Zhi and Cao Zhang, using words.
In other words, it is a kind reminder from the elders to the juniors.
After listening to Cao Ren's explanation, Cao Zhi instantly understood the point.
That is, except for Cao Cao, no one can command the tiger and leopard ride.
However, the more Cao Ren said this, the more Cao Zhi's competitive spirit was aroused.
"Uncle, is there really no way?" Cao Zhi humbly asked.
"There are ways, but for you, it's better to have than not!"
Cao Ren said:
"From ancient times to the present, in addition to submitting to the commander, the soldiers will only submit to those who are stronger than them, but I advise you to dispel this idea sooner or later, because the two commanders of the tiger and leopard riding in front of me, even me, feel the danger, so I advise you to dispel other thoughts as soon as possible."
"Like me, say good things to them, for the sake of Sikong's face, they will definitely cooperate with you!"
After saying this, Cao Ren arched his hand to Cao Zhi and kept silent.
As a general who supervised Cao Zhi's actions, he was able to say so much to Cao Zhi for the sake of his uncle and nephew.
If you say anything more, it is a violation.
As for Cao Zhi, when he saw Cao Ren's actions, he also hurriedly greeted Cao Ren and expressed his happiness.
Cao Ren's words are very reasonable.
After all, now is the time when you need the help of the tiger and leopard riders.
Befriending them is the best policy.
"However, they will submit to the stronger......"
Thinking of this, Cao Zhi's heart couldn't help but be overjoyed.
At this moment, Cao Zhi's mind came to the voice of the system.
