Chapter 143
The night was dark, and Yu Jin quietly walked twenty steps in front of Dong Ying.By the flickering of the fire in the camp, I could see the silence inside.

Moreover, defenses seem to be lax.

He hesitated for a moment, then waved his hand, letting dozens of elite soldiers follow behind him.These people quietly spread out and rushed forward like a fan.

They were all fit and strong, wearing soft-soled shoes, approaching the gate quietly.

There is a period of time before dawn, which is the time when people sleep most soundly, and it is also the time when it is darkest.Under the cover of night, they cleared the thorns and antlers along the way, marked the traps they found, and cleared the Weaver Girl's shuttle and Juma.

At this time, Yu Jin had touched the back of a sentry soldier at the gate, and suddenly stepped forward to cover his mouth, and was about to wipe his neck with a knife.

As soon as he put his hand on the sentry, he felt something was wrong.Subconsciously wiped it away with a knife, it was not the blunt feeling of metal cutting through flesh and blood, but a large handful of hay was lifted lightly.

"Is it a straw man?" Yu Jin was shocked.

He walked quickly to the camp and held up a burning torch. After shaking it around, he found that there was no one there, and there were scarecrows all over the bright posts and dark posts.

"How long!..." At this time, other soldiers also noticed something strange and called out to Yu Jin.

Yu Jin shook the torch again, and found that there were no cold arrows or shouts of killing, so he ordered his subordinates: "Tell the lord and General Cao that this is an empty camp. Bandit Dong should take advantage of the darkness two hours before. Quietly evacuated from here."

"Wei." The messenger left immediately.

Some soldiers were puzzled and asked, "How did Chief Shi know that Bandit Dong evacuated here two hours ago?"

"Torch." Yu Jin shook the torch in his hand, and said, "The pine oil torches used by the military can only burn for two hours. The one in my hand is about to go out, so it can be deduced that Dong Bandit was the earliest. left an hour ago."

"You are very good at observing the details, and you have done a good job leading troops to infiltrate."

Bao Xin, who was riding a war horse, had already arrived, and after listening to Yu Jin's analysis, he praised: "You are so talented, from now on, you are the head of our department."

"Thank you, my lord!" Yu Jin cupped his fists to thank him.

Bao Xin didn't pay much attention, but looked at Cao Cao, frowned and said, "Thief Dong arrived only the day before yesterday, and left in such a hurry after two days of fighting, that he didn't even have time to dismantle the tent...Meng De, what is the meaning of this?"

"Probably, he wants us to think that Luoyang has changed and he has to leave." Cao Cao said with a sigh, "This strategy is really clumsy and brilliant."

"Both clumsy and brilliant?" Bao Xin couldn't understand.

Cao Cao couldn't help laughing wryly, and said: "Yuncheng wouldn't think that Zi Lian and Yuan Rang won consecutive battles in the morning, and that Dong Bandit's army is really invincible?"

"Meng De, so you already?..."

"No." Cao Cao shook his head and said, "At the time, I really thought that Dong Bandit's subordinates were in vain, but after this night raid on his camp, my guess was confirmed."

"What guess?"

"Thief Dong probably wanted to lure us into taking the initiative to attack Hulao Pass."

Hearing this, Bao Xin immediately showed a strange look on his face, and said: "So, those timid people actually made mistakes by mistake?"

Cao Cao smiled even more bitterly, and said: "But there are always some people who don't believe in evil, knowing that there is a trick ahead, and they will still insist on going."

"Which brain is not enough to count, would be so stupid?"

Xia Houyuan couldn't help laughing and interjected when he heard the words: "If those talkative guys, let them go, we don't bother to care about it!"

"It's not them." Bao Xin also understood at this time, and said with a wry smile, "It's us."

"Us?..." Bao Tao touched his elder brother's forehead and said, "Brother, have you lost your mind? Why did you lead your troops there when you knew there was a poisonous scheme set by Dong Bandit ahead?"

"Because I'm the only one who really wants to seek Dong and Kuang to help the Han Dynasty. If I don't go, wouldn't those talkative guys stand still?"

"That's right." Cao Cao continued to explain, "Based on my guess, Bandit Dong wanted to fight our army this time, but he didn't want to give up the danger of a tiger prison."

"After waiting for a long time and being helpless, I played such a clumsy trick. First, I deliberately lured my troops to fight, and then I deliberately lost for a day after I won with all my strength, so as to instigate our army inside and outside."

"It's ridiculous that our army is in a state of disunity and doing things in its own way, so it really fell into such tricks so easily."

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but smiled wryly again, and said: "Unless I return to the camp and am willing to apologize to those famous people for calling them wrong, lying down and being small, otherwise I can only take the initiative to lead troops to fight Dong Bandit."

"Apologize to those guys for mispronouncing, lying low and being small?"

Hearing this, Xia Houyuan became anxious at the time: "I would rather lead my troops to fight Dong Bandit, even if I was hacked to death by knives or trampled to death by horseshoes, than to see the faces of those people who are full of wine and food!"

"That's it." Cao Cao nodded, and concluded: "That's why a certain person said that Bandit Dong's plan is both clumsy and clever. Even if we have an insight into the intention, we have to be led by the nose."

Hearing this, Xia Houdun frowned and said in puzzlement: "Meng De, these strategies understand human nature and make the best use of the situation, making people unstoppable... When did Dong Zhai, a reckless and fierce person, become so stingy?"

"Someone heard that Dong Thief went out this time with Xun You, a well-known scholar from Yingchuan, as his supervisor. Such a brilliant strategy may have come from Xun Gongda." Bao Xin replied.

"It may also be what Dong Zhongying did."

Cao Cao was noncommittal, and said: "According to the news from Luoyang, Dong Bandit's behavior changed drastically after he entered Beijing. He used tricks frequently and was arrogant and shameless to force capable people to work for him."

As he said that, he couldn't help but enviously said what was in his heart: "If a certain person can be like him, let the intelligence of the world be controlled, and control him with the way, there is nothing he can't do."

Hearing this, Bao Xin comforted him and said, "Your husband is not born in the world, and you are the one who can set things right. Gou is not his own man, and even if he is strong, he will die. You will be enlightened by the heavens!"

Cao Cao couldn't help but cheer up, and said: "Yuncheng is ridiculous!..."

"That's right, the world is still uncertain, and it's not yet known who will win the battle. Bandit Dong has indeed succeeded in his treacherous scheme this time, but he doesn't know that we can also use the situation to make the best use of the situation, and use the trick!"

"What does Mengde mean?..."

"Go back to the camp, tell them the situation here, and then deceive some soldiers, I will lead the army alone and fight Dong thief to the death!"

As he said that, Cao Cao turned his horse's head, full of vigor: "At that time, the tiger prison will be broken, and the whole body will be moved with one blow. Those famous men will attack when they hear the wind, and great things will be accomplished!"

……

Two days later, Dian Wei, who had returned to Hulao Pass, looked at Old Dong in a daze, and said, "My lord, it turns out that we went to tease Suanzao Daying twice, which is equivalent to what the two guards said before the battle, 'Look at me, what are you doing? ', 'What are you doing', 'One more try', 'Try and die'?"

"Isn't that great?" Old Dong also took a big bite.

"But this, isn't this strategy too clumsy?" Dian Wei understood, but he wasn't shocked at all, and even a little disgusted: "Compared to my lord's previous strongman lock man, it is not at all advanced and has no aesthetic feeling."

"It's fine if it works, what aesthetics do you want?" Old Dong didn't care, and said: "Turn off the lights, it's actually the same."

Dian Wei didn't know what the 'lamp' was, and he was a little worried: "Such a clumsy plan, will others see through it at a glance?"

"So what if you see through it?" Old Dong still didn't care, he waved his hand and said, "The pangolin has already said that those guys in the Suanzao camp have already had their own ghosts and are at odds with each other."

"The key to the strategy has never been how to tease, but whether to tease. As long as we tease, they will be suspicious of each other and fight each other. Once there is a fight, there will be unbelief."

"Well, then what?"

"Then as long as they are willing to come, they can wait for work and kill him by surprise, isn't it delicious?"

Dian Wei curled his lips, feeling that Old Dong was thinking of farting.

Unexpectedly, Shi A walked in immediately, looked at Old Dong with a puzzled look and asked, "My lord, is there one of the embroidered envoys whose code name is pangolin?"

"En." Old Dong not only nodded, but also seriously introduced: "That's a senior agent that I personally subdued. The chicken soup is very delicious. What's wrong?"

"Oh, he sent someone to bring news that Cao Mengde and Bao Xin have brought nearly [-] soldiers and horses, and they have left the Suanzao Camp to attack us."

Dong Zhuo looked startled at the time, and sighed: "As expected of a senior agent selected by the Han Empire and the old man Taiwei's Mansion, he has made great achievements so quickly!"
