Who is not Cao Cao?

Chapter 69 Cao's Incompetence
Cao Ren finally chose to personally lead five hundred cavalry to seduce Han Xun's tribe.

The remaining [-] people seized the time to set up an ambush on Jiluo Mountain.

Because these soldiers ate meat for days, each of them was not only full of energy, but also in a good mood, and they laughed and laughed when they worked.

Only He Yan was ashamed, hiding in the military tent and counting how much money Cao Ren and the gang outside had eaten from him...

Until Zhao Yun came to look for He Yan, He Yan was still counting with his fingers.

"Master He?"

"Master He?"

He Yan didn't even respond to his calls, Zhao Yun walked up to He Yan, only to find that He Yan's face was so pale that he couldn't bear to look directly at him.

"100 million dollars!"

"what?"

"I said, since I was arrested, they have already eaten 100 million yuan from me!"

He Yan clutched his chest in pain: "How much hard-earned labor money is this! How many sewing machines those young women have to step on! How can those Qiu Ba outside have the heart!"

The cries of pain turned into howls in the end, and Zhao Yun couldn't help covering his ears.

"Mr. He, the brothers outside have said that we are about to move the position. If you continue to hide in the army tent, we will withdraw first."

"Don't tell me sooner!"

He Yan's wailing stopped abruptly, and he easily got up and patted himself on the body: "Go! Run away!"

"It's not running away! It's transferring!"

Zhao Yun informed He Yan of Cao Ren's arrangements before his departure—

"This place should be changed to an empty camp, and hay and other flammable materials should be placed inside. When Captain Cao brings Han Xun's troops here, the archers lying in ambush on both sides of the mountain can fire rockets and turn this place into a sea of ​​flames."

Now that Zhao Yun has led the army again, his temperament is quite different.

If he was a sword with a hidden front before, he is now a sharp spear!

The more he talked, the more excited he became, not only arranged the place where He Yan would stay, but also said the military orders he was going to carry out.

"When the time comes, after Han Xun's troops rush into the camp in the middle of the mountain road, Captain Cao Ren can turn around and stand condescendingly with the soldiers on both sides to shoot the enemy with bows and crossbows, while I will detour to block the passageway where they rushed in. Stay in their way!"

"In this way, it is a desperate situation with ambushes on all sides! He Han Xun can't escape even if he spreads his wings!"

But He Yan poured cold water on Zhao Yun at the right time: "With such an arrangement, you are not afraid of Han Xun's death and rebirth?"

Hearing what He Yan said, Zhao Yun also looked at the map again.

"The siege of the city has to besiege three and one, and give the other side a way out, let alone an annihilation battle in the wild?"

Han Xun is also a fierce general under Yuan Shao's command, and his infantry and cavalry are all elite, if they are pushed into a hurry, no one can guarantee how much energy they can explode.

Zhao Yun obviously saw this too, so he asked in a low voice, "What does Mr. He mean?"

"You can't block their retreat."

He Yan pointed to several places in the north of Jiluo Mountain.

"Although our army is small in strength, we still have five hundred cavalry."

"It's impossible for these five hundred cavalry to defeat Han Xun in one battle, but it would be hard to say if they chased and dismembered Han Xun's tribe from behind."

The strategies of Cao Ren and He Yan are the same, but there are subtle differences in tactics.

Cao Ren wanted to control the battle near Jiluo Mountain, so it didn't matter if he suffered some casualties.

He Yan wanted to place layers of obstacles on Han Xun's return to Hebei, weaken Han Xun little by little, and finally eat up the army before he crossed the river.

The former is simple and rude, while the latter requires soldiers to have higher executive power.

"How about it, Xiao Zhao, are you confident?"

"You can lay an ambush at a place farther away from the mountain road, wait for Han Xun's troops to withdraw, then charge and kill him, and then bite him until his blood is completely drained!"

Zhao Yun clenched his fists, pondering over the feasibility of this in his mind.

According to Cao Ren's layout, Zhao Yun's task is very simple, as long as he can stop the fleeing Han Xun tribe for as long as possible, and cooperate with the friendly forces to eliminate the vital forces of the Han Xun tribe.

And according to He Yan's arrangement, Zhao Yun turned from a shield into a sharp blade in order to harvest Han Xun's sickle!
In addition, the combat exploits of the two methods are also different.

For the former, unless Zhao Yun was able to drag out Han Xun's tribe completely, he would be second only to Cao Ren in military exploits, but if it was the latter, as long as he could complete it smoothly, Zhao Yun's military exploits would definitely not be inferior to the leader Cao Ren!
And even if Zhao Yun is allowed to choose by himself, he still feels that he is more suitable for the role He Yan set for him.

The issue is……

"Master He, are you really sure you want me to hunt down Han Xun's tribe?"

There was some worry in Zhao Yun's eyes: "If I fail, or fail to achieve the expected results, it will be fatal to Colonel Cao's arrangement!"

"What? Xiao Zhao is not confident in himself?"

He Yan had already put on his helmet and planned to move with the main force: "Don't worry! Just do it, leave it to me."

Hearing what He Yan said, Zhao Yun was still a little worried: "What will Mr. He do?"

He Yan put his hands on his chest and clapped quickly like a seal: "I will cheer them up!"

"..."

The banners were flying, and the sound of killing shook the sky.

In the north of Jiluo Mountain, Cao Ren and Han Xun were fighting for the fourth time in three days.

The first three times Cao Ren was defeated in every battle, and this time was no exception.

Cao Ren, who was covered in blood, immediately swung a long knife and killed a Han Xun soldier, then looked up to the south.

The sky was gloomy, and the clouds and mist above almost overwhelmed the top of his head, but Cao Ren could still see the outline of Jiluo Mountain clearly.

"arrive!"

Cao Ren patted his horse and ordered his soldiers to wave their flags as a signal to retreat.

Han Xun, who was fighting with Cao's army, saw that Cao Ren was about to retreat again, and his face was nothing but disdain.

"This is Cao Cao's powerful general, Cao Ren? You really are a deceitful person!"

Compared with Cao Cao's side, the military power is almost all in the hands of Cao Xiahou, while Yuan Shao's military power belongs to different generals.

Even if these generals had family backgrounds, they had been killed with real knives and guns since the Yellow Turban Rebellion. Therefore, people like Cao Ren who became the leading generals by virtue of their blood ties were somewhat underestimated.

In addition, before Yuan Shao's army fought against Cao Cao's army, Guan Yu, Zhang Liao, and Yu Jin, who shined brilliantly, were not the generals of the Cao Xiahou, which made Han Xun even more convinced that "the Cao Xiahou is incompetent".

Seeing that Cao Ren was about to flee again, Han Xun ordered the cavalry to chase him without saying a word.

Among Han Xun's [-] soldiers, there are [-] cavalry alone. These people chasing Cao Ren's tribe is like a pack of wolves chasing hares!Cruel, tyrannical, and lighthearted.

The two sides quickly rushed to the mountain road of Jiluo Mountain. When Cao Ren saw the empty camp, the lethargy of the past three days was wiped away!

He turned his horse's head, stood above the mountain road, and looked down at the Han Xun soldiers who were chasing him: "Today, you will all be buried here!"
