Who is not Cao Cao?

Chapter 24 Liu Bei's Trace
The grain harvest is complete.

A bowl of fragrant corn was placed in front of He Yan, but He Yan was not in the mood to eat it, his eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"how?"

At this time, Cao Ren also came over with a bowl of corn and sat down beside He Yan, picking up the grain in the bowl.

"Still angry?"

Cao Ren chewed casually: "Don't worry, I will truthfully report what happened to Sikong today, and I will definitely give you compensation when Sikong wins against Yuan Shao."

After eating, Cao Ren also seemed to feel embarrassed, so he explained to He Yan: "Actually, there is no other way. There is a general shortage of food in the army. If there is no food from you, the food in Xuchang City will be used. But this is the way to do it." Pai is bound to cause panic in the city."

"..."

Seeing that He Yan still didn't speak, Cao Ren simply broke the jar and said, "Then report everything to the Tingwei, and I will resist any punishment!"

Only then did He Yan glance at Cao Ren: "Forcing food from other people is a capital offense, Uncle Ren really thinks it through?"

Cao Ren felt a little guilty when he thought of Mao Jie, Chen Qun and other upright officials, he laughed and said, "Is Yu Lang really going to sue me?"

He Yan wanted to say something, but he still sighed.

"Actually, when I think about it carefully, the three lessons my uncle taught me are quite meaningful."

A few thousand shi of grain, said it was a lot less, and said it was not too much, it would not make He Yan and Cao Ren angry.

But Cao Ren really sounded a wake-up call for He Yan today.

In troubled times, only soldiers can do it!

In addition, the Cao family is so shameless, what if that little bastard Cao Pi comes back after having some power?
No, it's not just in case there will be revenge, that little bastard will definitely come back with revenge!

Wouldn't He Yan have to suffer humiliation after that?
Then Cao Pi completed the counterattack and rode on his head to do his best?
No!

He Yan absolutely does not allow such an awesome supporting role to exist!

……

……

After thinking for a long time, He Yan turned his neck almost at two ninety degrees, and then stared at Cao Ren.

"Uncle Ren, I want to lead troops!"

--------

--------

After He Yan and Cao Ren reached a consensus, they followed Cao Ren to learn the art of war.

Cao Ren is the same as Cao Cao. Leading troops to fight in wars is all practiced on the battlefield. He can't speak clearly, and he can't teach.

After explaining the most basic affairs to He Yan, Cao Ren simply handed over the command of this army to He Yan temporarily, and every time He Yan gave an order, Cao Ren would implement it immediately as long as Cao Ren agreed.

"Uncle Ren, where should we camp?"

"Uncle Ren, when should the soldiers wake up in the morning?"

"Uncle Ren..."

He Yan was not polite to Cao Ren either, he would ask Cao Ren any questions, and even anxiously asked Cao Ren how to deal with soldiers when they were sick.

Although Cao Ren was impatient, he tried his best to answer He Yan's questions.

……

Practice is the best teacher.

After only three days in the army, He Yan understood the army's daily rules of camping, luggage, etc.

Commanding in the army is actually much easier than doing things in officialdom and business.

One is one, two is two.

In other places, some people may raise objections, but in the army, all you have to do is obey!
"No wonder the civil servants of later generations always think that martial arts are vulgar."

"Civilian officials often have to consider the balance of power, background, temperament, etc. of all parties when making a decision."

"But the general is comfortable, at least no one in his own army dares to refute."

Of course, this comparison is not exhaustive.

The supreme prestige of generals in the army is based on the "life" of soldiers.

Only those who can win battles and save the lives of soldiers are good generals.If you change to a general who is often defeated, these soldiers with strong execution ability will become ** in the next second, let you know what a "rough warrior" is.

But that's it, after all, those who are often defeated may not be able to be a general...

The reason why He Yan was able to experience the joy of being a general in this army was all because the fox pretended to be the tiger and gained Cao Ren's glory.

He wanted to lead these soldiers by himself, for fear that he would be eaten alive.

"The rules among the ranks are really different."

"Or, the taste of this power is really wonderful."

It was the first time that He Yan, who was slightly nourished by power, couldn't control himself, let alone other people?

"Army is an amplifier of power."

At this moment, He Yan once again had a new understanding of various disputes in history.

However, this borrowed power came and went quickly, and Cao Ren soon began to lead the army himself.

It's not because he is stingy, but because they have already discovered the enemy!
He Yan was also shocked when he heard the news: "Uncle Ren, could it be that Liu Beijun was discovered?"

"Ah."

When Cao Ren talked about the military affairs, it was like a different person, not frivolous and reckless, but extremely calm.

"Man Chong, the prefect of Runan, sent me information, saying that Liu Bei was found in Ruyang and Nandun."

"How many people are there in Liu Bei's army?"

"About a thousand people."

He Yan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this number.

In fact, Liu Bei fought fiercely, but he did not have a stable base after all, and the quality of his soldiers was uneven.

Among the thousand soldiers, half of them are estimated to be composed of rogues who are inferior to Cao Ren's current field soldiers...

With such a powerful advantage, even if Liu Bei is still following Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun, Cao Ren can easily defeat him.

"But before that, I will go to Shangcai first, where a bandit army of about a thousand people is gathered to respond to Liu Bei, so let's take them first!"

Cao Ren's tone was full of fear.

Even Runan's rebellion was justified.

But a rebellion is a rebellion!
If some people are not killed, the situation will not stabilize in a short time.

Cao Ren immediately turned on the forced march mode and headed towards Shangcai, wanting to catch the opponent by surprise.

At this time, the bandit soldiers gathered in Shangcai didn't know the news that Cao Ren had led his army approaching, but they were happily sharing the food.

Liu Bei is very attractive.

But his charm cannot be deified. It doesn't mean that people are willing to follow Liu Bei as soon as they hear his name. Specifically, people are willing to follow him because of what Liu Bei has done.

When Liu Bei made troubles in Runan, he also broke through several counties. Facing these small counties, the soldiers under Liu Bei's command did not say that they were all orderly and did not take a single cent of the people, but at least they were very measured and did not oppress the people too much.

In addition, Liu Bei is currently "running around and committing crimes", and he can't take much food with him after breaking through the county. He distributed these food to the poor local people, allowing them to gather forces to resist Cao Cao.

Chen Yu, the bandit leader in Shangcai, is such a person.
