"Yuanlong, the safety of Xuzhou depends on you!"

Tao Qian coughed heavily behind him, and his blazing eyes looked at Chen Deng's back, but Chen Deng did not turn his head back.

After he left, Tao Qian put away the expression on his face and returned to a solemn preoccupation.

Cao Cao's sudden deployment of troops on the border this time also meant a warning, but it was reported that the person who came was not a general, but a master under his command, who was quite similar to Yuan Long, and was a good hand in internal governance.

And the two had known each other before when they negotiated peace in the Pengcheng War, so it was not abrupt to inquire again this time.

And after Chen Deng went out, his face was also full of helplessness, his eyebrows were tight and a little irritable, and he shook his head before he could move far, "Tao Gong's words can be faked a little more...... Send soldiers and horses to escort you, and you can pretend to be a mountain bandit to raid when you turn around. ”

"Even if there is no despicable use of this method, it is hard to guarantee that those soldiers who were born as thieves will not do this."

"Xuzhou is precarious, there may be a war at any time, it is originally a place of four wars, and there are only a handful of outstanding generals in the territory, if it is a death battle, how can it not die in battle?"

Chen Deng quickly figured out this verse, but he wondered why Cao Cao was so sure, and asked Xi Zhicai to send a letter, knowing that this is not a matter of conclusive evidence.

Cao Cao could place his troops and horses on the border, but to no avail, once he wanted to attack, he would be an unrighteous army, how could he be sure?

The answer is obvious.

"The way of the people," Chen Deng sighed.

Last year, in the name of pacifying the Que Xuanyu Party, Tao Gong took advantage of the harm of Qingxu in Yanzhou to try to expand the territory, and this year Cao Cao can enter Xuzhou in the name of his father.

Was there anything wrong with the promotion of Tao Gong at the beginning?

Now it seems that he is not only difficult to grow, but even impossible to keep...... got into these troubles for Xuzhou.

"Zhang Bochang, I have to go see him."

……

In the territory of Taishan County, close to the pass of Langya, Bao Xin led the troops to march to the mountain pass, his soldiers and horses were mainly Taishan, and it was the ability to look after the mountains and mountains, and he was more familiar with the terrain here.

Now there are a lot of businessmen and people in the past at the pass, and after exploring the Malay report, Bao Xin can know the garrison in the pass after a little analysis.

"A team of eight people patrols on the wall, a total of three teams, the gate of the pass is opened, and the flags in the pass are sparse, and there will be no more than five hundred."

"At night, when the garrison changes defenses, we will raise fire to attack and kill together, and we will definitely be able to take down this pass and lead the cavalry into Langya."

"Yes."

Bao Xin glanced at the sky, it was already sunset, and it would not be long before the smoke curled up, and it was the mountains and forests on both sides of the road, standing still.

There was a general beside him, the goatee was quite dark and thick, his face was serious and straight, his eyes were bright, he could see the rough skin on his body and the calluses on his hands to know that he was marching all year round, he was lying on the ground with a gun in his hand, and a long knife was hanging on his left waist.

He leaned down to Bao Xin's side and asked, "Bao Xiang, Cao Gong is already in Jibei this time, but why don't you come with us to attack this pass?" ”

"Ying Shao and Cao Xiu are both in the army to greet them, if we capture this pass, we can drive straight in tonight to rescue the old lady, isn't it better?"

Bao Xin showed a faint smile on his resolute face, "Wen Ze, according to the distance Meng De said, the old lady is still halfway now, it is estimated that he has just passed the realm of Tancheng, we will immediately look for it at night, and it is estimated that we can find a place for carriages and horses to rest in less than half the night." ”

"So it doesn't matter whether Meng De comes or not, because this pass is not solid, it belongs to the weaker border of Xuzhou, and their heavy border defense is in the northwest."

"As for him not coming, he has already gone back."

Bao Xin smiled.

"Going back?" This will be the chief general of Bao Xin's most confidant, who can lead the troops strictly, has extraordinary martial arts, and is familiar with the law of Tuntian, and he is fully responsible for the military tun in Jibei, and also recruits and trains soldiers, and is a rare excellent general.

The name is forbidden, and the words are written.

"Cao Gong has already gone back, why do you want to capture this place."

"I have a good relationship with Meng De, and his father is my father," Bao Xin glanced at him with a solemn expression, "Besides, he saved my life in Shouzhang, and now he deserves to be rewarded." ”

"Meng De has left after getting a few military reports, but when he came this time, many secret agents thought that he was in charge of our army, but when he went back, he acted in secret, and you should not spread the word."

"The last general understands," Yu Ban frowned, thinking about it because he felt strange.

In the past, I often heard Bao Xiang say that Cao Gong's soldiers were well versed in "the way of reality and reality" and "unpredictable", and they could not be defeated by Xu Rong and be contemptuous.

Because the pursuit was urgent at that time, he couldn't take too much into account, and the defeat in that battle was not because Cao Cao was stupid in using troops, but because Xu Rong was extremely good at fighting and could be called a famous general.

The people of the world naturally did not want to praise Xu Rong, so the princes would only belittle Cao Cao one by one. There's a feeling of "I'm going to do it, I'm going to do it" because they won't be on it.

Now it seems that Cao Gong went back secretly, but he could confuse the military situation in Xuzhou, and he should have other plans.

"Wen Ze, think a lot, learn from Meng De's method of using soldiers, and you can become a generation of famous generals after your experience of a hundred battles in the future," Bao Xin did not hesitate to praise the ban.

"Thank you, Bao Xiang."

Yu Ban nodded seriously, and at the same time, while the sky was still bright at this time, he began to be in a daze, he should really think about the overall layout.

In the evening, when the sky has darkened, the smoke of the cooking has dispersed, there is a commotion in the pass, the soldiers and horses who change the guard are in full swing to greet each other, and the small officials in the army send people to change, but there are few wars in the spring ploughing, and the thieves will not cross the pass, so the atmosphere is more relaxed.

However, soon after the change of guards, a large number of torches were lit in the distance, and the deafening shouts of killing were used like a tide, and it was dark that it was difficult to see how many people there were, because not everyone was necessarily carrying torches.

There may be seven or eight people in the light of the light, accompanied by the galloping horses, and soon rushed to the pass, and even the soldiers and horses climbed up along the gables on both sides, trying to shoot arrows from the heights of the wall.

"Enemy attack!"

The soldiers finally reacted and shouted, but it was over, at this time Bao Xin had already arrived with a large army, and Yu Forbidden took the lead in attacking the door, leading three teams of pioneers to open the way and hit the gate, and before these defenders could react, they had already been killed.

After the situation was brought under control, the guard Wang Ling was tied up in front of Bao Xin and still did not understand what was happening.

Isn't there no war between us and Yanzhou? Since the misunderstanding was resolved last year, the relationship between them has been guarded against but will not cross the border to fight, which is what the state pastor has exchanged for countless money, food and people.

As a result, I was beaten as soon as the spring began, and my breath was shaking and cold, when will we be able to stand up in Xuzhou.

"Hold the pass, switch and let the cavalry in," after Yu Ban finished the order, he glanced back at the royal tomb in front of him, and said: "I need a guide here, I don't need you to surrender, if you are willing to lead the way, let go of the more than 300 brothers in your pass, and if you don't want to, you will be killed immediately, leaving you alone." ”

Wang Ling: "Ken! ”

It's ruthless.

……

Xiaopei outside the barracks.

Zhang Han waited for Cao Chun before waiting for Chen Deng to come to see him.

When Cao Chun led the tiger cavalry to arrive, he specially came to the camp to send a message to Zhang Han, "The lord has an order, let me bring his handsome flag and hide it in the camp, not only for Chen Deng to see, but also not for him to see." ”

Zhang Han thought for a while, then nodded and smiled: "Understood, general, the lord should be in Shouzhang now, right?" ”

"I don't know, maybe not," Cao Chun shook his head, "I don't know what he wants, but the ten detectives sent earlier have reported that the old lady is still on the way, and he has been invited by Tao Qian, so what you are worried about will not happen." ”

"Bo Chang, whether you are sincere or not this time, it's too much."

Hey...... You have a gun and a stick in your words.

Zhang Han raised his eyebrows slightly, feeling that Cao Chun was saying that he was planning the military situation in vain, and by the way, he also sarcastically ridiculed a wave of Zhang Han's greedy words.

"I just said casually, maybe the lord thinks about his father, if the son and the general's father are in danger, they shouldn't be able to mobilize the people to pick them up, right?"

The Han Dynasty rules the world with filial piety, which is related to the safety of his biological father, and it is not an exaggeration to raise the teacher and move the public, but Cao Chun's father passed away when he was fourteen years old, and he and his brother Cao Ren shared the family wealth, and after listening to Zhang Han's words, he fell into silence.

Can't argue, don't mess with him.

After a long time, he said calmly: "Bo Chang, according to what the lord said." ”

"Hmm."

The two clasped their fists and saluted each other, and Cao Chun walked out of the tent quickly.

……

Three days later, in the morning, Yu Ban found Cao Song's chariot and horse in the mountains from Mount Tai to Langya, at this time the horse team was already missing most of them, and when they looked for the sound of horses' hooves and shouting to kill, Cao's convoy had been killed and wounded.

Cao De and his son Cao Anmin were on the run, and Cao Song's concubine had already been killed and plundered.

It is equivalent to the ban on coming to the rescue, those thieves immediately ran away, but fortunately, there were more servants and guests in Cao's carriage, and those thieves had to kill for a while.

But fortunately, several elders and clans of the Cao family were saved.

At the same time, Zhang Han sent guards to welcome Chen Deng into the camp to discuss the invasion.

"Master Zhang's book is unharmed."

"What's wrong," Zhang Han sat on the couch, helplessly supporting his side face, and sighed: "What is Tao Qian's old man doing, why are you still willing to support him, Yuanlong?" The scholar clan values virtue, shouldn't he spit on such unkind and unrighteous things? ”

Chen Deng's face was full of tangled folds, and he scolded as soon as he came in......

The last time I had peace talks, too, I came in and I was the first to cut my head and cover my face.
