Becoming stronger from cutting Hu and Cao Cao

Chapter 210 Cao Cao: Another fucking slap in the face.

Cao Cao ordered Cao Jun's corpses to be restrained on the battlefield, and after Cao Anmin was buried.He didn't care about resting anymore, so he rushed to the direction of Zhending overnight.

This is ancient times, and the traffic is not so developed.There are not many roads that allow 30 soldiers and civilians to pass quickly, so Zhending County is the only way for the Black Mountain Army to fight Li Mu.

Because of this, Cao Cao didn't need to think too much, and chased along the official road in front of him, so he could catch up with the Black Mountain Army.

Judging from the corpses of Cao Jun left on the battlefield, the soldiers and civilians of Montenegro should have been gone for about a day.And it takes about one day from here to Zhending County, that is to say, the soldiers and civilians of Montenegro should have arrived at Zhending City by now.

Although Zhending is a small city, with Cao Ren leading an army of [-] troops stationed here, Cao Cao thought it would be easy to block the Black Mountain Army for a day or two.

Cao Ren is also one of the best generals under Cao Cao who can stand alone.Therefore, Cao Cao still trusts Cao Ren very much, and feels that he can block the way of the Black Mountain Army in Zhending.

Cao Cao raised 30 troops this time, and the food, grass and military equipment consumed can be said to be incalculable. The purpose of this war is to take down the Black Mountain Army and subdue these [-] to [-] veterans.

You must know that Cao Cao has been fighting Yuan Shao for several years, and then he was fighting Lu Bu, and he was fighting Li Chen. These few battles have almost wiped out Cao Cao's family fortune accumulated over the years.

Now, for Cao Cao, what is the biggest problem? The biggest problem is the disparity in the ratio of veterans and recruits in the army.

These tough battles caused Cao Cao's army to suffer heavy casualties, and the newly recruited troops were all recruits, even after training, they were actually too embarrassing to use.

The gap between recruits and veterans is not only in physical fitness and military quality, but in will.A soldier who has not been baptized in several battles has a very weak will.

Such recruits are fine in a downwind battle, but when a tough battle comes, it is very likely to cause such things as camp screams.

When the ratio of recruits to veterans in an army is very different, it is difficult for this army to have a strong combat effectiveness.

Therefore, Cao Cao's goal in this battle is the five to sixty thousand veterans of the Black Mountain Army.As long as this veteran can be collected and supplemented into his own army, then his army's recruits and veterans will reach a very healthy ratio.

This is a duck that is on the verge of mouth, and Cao Cao can't make him fly no matter what.At this moment, Cao Cao has made up his mind to compete with Li Chen for the Black Mountain Army.

At this time, on the official road to Zhending County, the sky was full of dust and flags were flying, and there were densely packed, endless black armored soldiers everywhere.

Because Cao Cao traveled across mountains and ridges, he took the mountain road to support him.Therefore, most of his army is infantry, with only two thousand leopards riding beside them.

Two thousand leopards rode around to support them, and there was an army of [-] to [-] in front.These armies are all infantry, and most of them are recruits.Therefore, the speed of the march is not very fast.

Under the banner of the Chinese Army, a group of tall and burly generals surrounded the short Cao Cao.

I finally understood why Cao Cao asked Dian Wei and Xu Chu to be his bodyguards. These two were big.You must know that Xu Chu and Dian Wei are both over two meters tall and tall and thick.Cao Cao, on the other hand, is short in stature, only 1.6 meters tall.

Xu Chu and Dian Wei surrounded Cao Cao, but Cao Cao could not be seen by others.On this battlefield, Xu Chu and Dian Wei pinched Cao Cao one after the other, so they had no fear of Liu Shi at all.

Although Cao Cao is short in stature, he is a military giant and a political giant.

"King Wei, we are going too slowly. Let these recruits Ya Ya go faster, otherwise the day lily will be cold when we catch up." Xu Chu muttered next to Cao Cao.

"No, no, no."

"We maintain this marching speed, so that the soldiers can preserve their energy. Only in this way can we go directly to the battle when we reach Zhending. If we march quickly, when we reach Zhending County, all the soldiers will be exhausted. How can we Did you win the battle?"

Cao Cao laughed and said, above his head was the large flag of the Chinese Army. On the front of the big flag was the character Wei, and on the back was the character Cao.

"Wei Wang, with our speed, what if we let the Black Mountain Army escape?" Xu Chu asked a little unconvinced.

"Haha! Haha! Haha!"

"Cao Ren is my humerus general. How can he not defend a mere Zhending County?" Cao Cao laughed loudly.

"report"

Just as Cao Cao stopped laughing, he saw a fast horse galloping ahead.

"Report to King Wei that a large number of our troops have been defeated in front of us."

The scout got off his horse, knelt on one knee in front of Wei Wang Cao Cao and said.

At this time, in the woods not far from Cao Cao's army, many soldiers wearing Cao's armor were sitting and resting under the trees.These soldiers looked defeated at first glance, and they looked more embarrassed than each other.

Naturally, these rout soldiers escaped from Zhending County, Cao Ren's troops.It was midnight when Cao Ren withdrew, and it was sometimes dark, and Cao Ren sometimes retreated.So when they left, they only gathered more than ten thousand soldiers and horses, and the rest of Cao Jun's soldiers ran on their own.

It was dark at night, and the road could not be seen clearly. It happened that many soldiers were running along the relatively flat official road, so they happened to meet Cao Cao.

"Broken soldiers, how could there be broken soldiers?" Cao Cao couldn't help but feel angry and have an ominous premonition.

"Quickly summon some rout soldiers and ask where they are from?" Cao Cao hurriedly ordered.The scout in charge of exploring the road had to leave, and after about a stick of incense, he brought a few defeated Cao troops.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the King of Wei." Seeing Cao Cao, these defeated soldiers accepted their heads and were defeated.

Cao Cao glanced at the soldiers, they were really in a state of embarrassment. At this time, all the armor on their bodies had been lost, and they were only turning around the inner shirt inside the armor. The weapons in their hands were lost. The helmet that was worn crookedly.

"Whose soldiers are you?" Cao Cao asked.

"Report to His Royal Highness the King of Wei, are we soldiers of General Cao Ren?" the defeated soldiers replied.

"What's the matter, could it be that Zhending County lost the battle, and you are deserters?" Cao Cao said angrily.

"His Royal Highness, we are not deserters, we are routed. Zhending County is not defeated. Zhending County is lost. General Cao Ren has long since disappeared." The Cao soldiers argued.

A deserter is not the same as a rout. The deserter escapes by himself, and he must be punished.But the rout is different. The rout is because the main general ran away, and he had to run away.

At this moment, Cao Cao's face turned pale.He said just now that Cao Ren could keep Zhending, but in the blink of an eye, he heard the sad news that Zhending County had been lost.

This really hit the face too fast, like a tornado.Cao Cao felt that his face was about to be swollen.
