Cao Thief

Chapter 318 It's enough to wait in the pavilion (Third watch, ask for a monthly ticket!)
Three more, 1 words.

Seeing the pursuers approaching behind him, Lao Xin had to jump out and shouted loudly: "Give me a monthly pass!"

Please everyone.

————————————————————

In the big tent of the Chinese army, it was very empty.

Sixteen six-meter-high pillars support the big tent, so that people will not feel too oppressed and stuffy in it.At least compared to the height of the small tent which is less than three meters, it is much more comfortable.Sixteen sticks of tallow wax are inserted on the pillars, illuminating the big tent transparently.

Cao Cao put his feet in the wooden basin, enjoying the joy of soaking his feet.

Cao Peng, on the other hand, opened his mouth wide and stared blankly at Cao Cao, unable to turn the corner for a while.

"Let me guard the white horse for a day?"

"kindness!"

Cao Cao signaled the school to add some hot water to the wooden basin, and said to Cao Peng, "I also know that this matter may be a bit embarrassing. But it's a very important matter. After thinking about it, only you, Fu, are the most suitable. When the white horse is lost, Liu Bei will definitely rush to help the white horse. I will need time to destroy it. But you also know that Liu Bei will not wait! At that time, Xu You will also send troops to rescue the white horse. If he takes the white horse back, I will face the enemy... So, I need someone to stand by for me in Baima for a day, and this person is only you."

I thank you...you really think highly of me!

Cao Peng couldn't help hesitating.

"Ah Fu, if you don't want to, then forget it..."

"It's not that I don't want to, but... my nephew is young, and if I make a mistake, I'm afraid it will spoil the great affairs of my father."

"No!" Cao Cao couldn't help laughing, "This time it was recommended by Wenhe, and Feng Xiao also quite agrees, they all think you are the most suitable candidate.

Ah Fu, I will leave a school for you at that time, and the personnel will be appointed by you. "

Sure enough, it was that old Yin man!
In his heart, Cao Peng was about to scold Jia Xu to the sky, but on the surface, he still acted calmly.

"Do you have a choice?"

"If the nephew chooses, besides the part of the nephew, please let the father keep the infantry battalion.

Dianman, Xu Yi and Deng Fanke are nephew's assistants, helping to defend the city...with these three people, they should be enough to deal with Yuan Shao's army's attack. "

"Just the three of them?"

Cao Cao couldn't help hesitating.

He thought of a lot of people who could help Cao Peng, but he never thought that Cao Peng would have all three of them.

Cao Peng said: "These three people are friends with my nephew, and they are sworn brothers to Jinlan. They can work together. Moreover, they have cooperated with my nephew. Whether it is my sixth brother Deng Fan, or my second and third brothers, when they were in Haixi, they all worked together. I have been at my disposal, so don't worry about anything else.

If it were someone else in the army, his nephew would have little qualifications and young age, so he might not be willing to obey orders.

Instead of doing things with their own minds, my nephew would rather trust my second brother and the others.There is a saying that when brothers are of one mind, their profits cut through gold..."

Cao Cao nodded slightly, feeling that Cao Peng's words were quite reasonable.

But these people are all brats, Xu Yi, the oldest, is no more than this year.It would be a bit of a joke to hand over one's own rear to this group of teenagers who are less than 70 years old.Anyway, it always makes people feel a little uneasy.

"Ah Fu, you can choose someone else."

"Uh……"

Cao Peng was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood Cao Cao's thoughts.

Indeed, with the four oldest children together, if it were me, I'm afraid I wouldn't feel at ease.

He thought for a while, "It's okay to choose another one, but no matter who he is, he must be at my disposal."

"That's natural."

"Please give my nephew the Shangfang sword, so that my nephew can use it."

"Shang Fang's sword?"

"What my nephew means is that he has the right to kill first and play later."

The term Shangfang Baojian did not appear at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.During the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were more sayings about holding festivals or false festivals, so Cao Cao didn't understand it at first.But cut first and play later... This power is not small.Cao Cao hesitated, but nodded in agreement.

"can."

"Then I will choose Dutingwai."

puff……

Cao Cao was drinking water, and when he heard Cao Peng's words, he immediately spouted water, splashing Cao Peng's face.

He coughed violently, waved his hands at the same time, and suppressed a smile, "Ah Fu, I'm sorry, I didn't do it on purpose, don't worry about it."

With his face drooping, Cao Peng took a clean cloth towel from the principal and wiped off the water stains on his face.

As for that?
However, you, Jia Xu, are uneasy and kind, and I will not be polite to you.Even if I die in battle with the white horse, I will drag you over to give me a back.

And Cao Cao thought to himself: These two people really fought each other!
"You can change someone."

"As long as the nephews are all waiting, one person is better than a thousand troops."

"you……"

"If the world father doesn't agree, then forget it.

Anyway, if I had to choose another person, it would be Du Tinghou.If the world father doesn't let him go, I don't want the others either, which will only add to the burden. "

It seems that Cao Peng must be Jia Xu.

Cao Cao looked at Cao Peng with a half-smile, and gritted his teeth after a while, "Well, let Du Tinghou stay."

"There's also Shangfang's sword, uh..."

"Ah Fu, don't think about..."

"Shifu, this Shangfang sword is a deterrent. You also know that I am young and have low qualifications. There will definitely be people who will not accept it.

But with this Shangfang sword, my nephew is enough to frighten the whole army. "

"I gave you the Tianxian knife, can you take it with you?"

"In my account."

"Then take the Tianxian Dao as the most precious sword, and I will allow you to cut it first and then play it."

——————————————————————————————

The battle in Yanjin became more and more intense.

On December 31, the last day of the fourth year of Jian'an, the battle became stalemate.As Yuan Shao ordered the army to cross the river faster, Xia Houyuan couldn't stand it anymore!At the beginning, he attacked fiercely; but three days later, Yuan Jun's strength increased, so that Xia Houyuan had to switch from offense to defense, retreating forty miles from Yanjin, backed by Jishui, and fought fiercely with Yuan Jun again.

After crossing Jishui, it is Fengqiu County.

This place can be regarded as Xia Houyuan's territory.

Xia Houyuan was the prefect of Chen Liu, and Feng Qiu was under Chen Liu's rule.

Crossing the river from Fengqiu, there is a continuous supply of luggage, and it only takes half a day to send reinforcements from Chenliu.

Backed by his old lair, Xia Houyuan gradually regained his disadvantage, and continued to stalemate with Yuan Jun.

Xu You, lead your troops to Yanjin!
On the same day, Cao Cao ordered Changshuiying and Sheshengying to attack, and without anyone noticing, they arrived outside Baima City.

Baima had turned into an empty city at this time, and the local people were massacred on the day Yan Liang broke the city.This is a small county town. After the massacre of the city, it immediately became a temporary gathering place for luggage.Supplies were continuously brought in from the north bank of the river, and Yuan Shao also sent General Kong Shun to garrison Baima.This Kong Shun is also a tyrant who belongs to Jizhou, and his clan is quite rich.It's just that he is very greedy and treacherous, and knows how to flatter horses, so he was appreciated by Yuan Shao, so he entrusted him with important tasks.

No matter who you are, you will not easily attack the white horse.

Because after capturing Puyang, Yuan Shao's layout on the south bank of the river has taken shape.

With the white horse as the abdomen of the Changshan snake, Puyang and Yanjin are the head and tail of the Changshan snake respectively, presenting a tripod posture.If the white horse is attacked, Puyang and Yanjin can quickly rush to help, forming a pincer attack.All Kong Shun has to do is to guard the white horse for a day.

He has 5000 men in his hands, which is more than enough to guard the white horse.

However, no one thought that this seemingly unbreakable white horse was broken by Cao Cao overnight.Le Jin led Chang Shuiying to climb the white horse first, beheaded Kong Shun almost effortlessly, and successfully took the white horse into his own hands.Then Cao Cao quickly attacked, and the Tiger Ben Army, Tiger Leopard Cavalry and Wu Wei Army were dispatched at the same time. On the night of the 31st, they ambush around the river beach in Zhaoying.

When Cao Peng led the infantry battalion to Baima, he saw Le Jin dealing with the prisoners.

Outside Baima City, it has become a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood.

Thousands of soldiers were beheaded under the White Horse City, and the heads were piled up into Jingguan.

Cao Peng wanted to stop him, but was stopped by Jia Xu.

"Marquis Cao Zhong, Marquis Guangchang Ting is here to clean up your troubles."

"what?"

Jia Xu looked calm and said softly: "This time the white horse won thousands of Yuan Jun, but we are about to face a fierce battle... These people are not the soldiers you captured in Quyang back then. They are the elite of Yuan Jun. If you don't deal with it, there will be a camp roar during the battle, and even you will be hard to survive. Guangchang Tinghou has given you a bad name, and only by killing these people will you be safe!"

"But……"

"Marquis Cao Zhong, you are not new to battle, you should know the truth that compassion does not command soldiers.

If you are soft-hearted today, you will have to pay ten or even a hundred percent of the price in the future... We and Yuan Shao have become like fire and water.Yan Liang can kill all the white horses, so today, you must kill all these soldiers.At this time, the commander in chief must never have the kindness of a woman. "

Hearing the mournful cry, Cao Peng couldn't help but feel pity.

Originally thought that after experiencing the fierce battle in Quyang, he could face the massacre calmly.But when he faced it in person, his heart still trembled a little.But he knew that what Jia Xu said was not wrong at all.A ounce of kindness at this time will pay a hundredfold price.

Climbing up to the city tower, Cao Peng couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he saw the teams of Yuan Jun's soldiers who had lost their heads after being pushed out of the city.

How long will this massacre last?
In his previous life, Cao Peng had seen a statistical data about the population of the Three Kingdoms.

It is said that in the third year of Yongshou, that is, in 157 AD, the tenth emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty, made a population census.At that time, the land of thirteen states had a population of 5648 million.However, in the 25th year of Jian'an, that is, in 220 AD, after Cao Cao passed away, the total population of the thirteen prefectures was only 763 million people... What a shocking number.

From 157 to 220, that is, a period of sixty years, the population of the Han Dynasty decreased by almost [-]%.

It can't be all blamed on people like Cao Cao, but how many people died in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and how many people died in the Dong Zhuo Rebellion?

Well, counting the population that was hidden by the powerful family at that time, an additional 700 million people were added. In 60 years, a total of 4000 million people died!

Many people probably died in the crazy killing before them.

Cao Peng raised his head and looked up at the sky.

The people of the country have always been like this. They can always be cruel to their own people, but they have to show the style of a great country and show benevolence and righteousness to foreigners.

The Eastern Han Dynasty is so...

The same is true after a span of 800 years.

It is often said that the three kingdoms will have bright stars and talented people, and it is a glorious era.

I bother!

When you see the killings and tragedies with your own eyes, do you still have the bloody glory?The Three Kingdoms is a fucking dark age.After the Three Kingdoms, the Eight Kings Rebellion.Foreign races invaded China and wantonly massacred the people of the big man... But in the history books of shit, it is written about the era that promoted the great integration of nations and cultural integration.Is that a fucking fusion?
For some reason, Cao Peng only felt that there seemed to be a fire burning in his heart.

It only burned him, and his whole body was in pain!

"Youxue, what's wrong with you?"

Jia Xu suddenly noticed the violent fluctuations in Cao Peng's mood, and couldn't help asking softly.

Born in this era, he did not have the sentimentality of Cao Peng, and he was no longer surprised by such scenes of killing.Not only Jia Xu, but also those outstanding people born in this era... Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Zhuge Liang... Can they predict the final outcome?
The corners of his eyes were moist, Cao Peng turned around.

After a while, he took a deep breath, looked at Jia Xu and said, "Du Tinghou, what will it look like in 100 years?"

"what?"

Jia Xu was overwhelmed by Cao Peng's nonsensical question.

"In the past, Chen Tang attacked the Xiongnu for three thousand miles, and boldly said: Anyone who offends our strong Han will be punished no matter how far away.

100 years from now, will anyone still remember this sentence?At that time, we are all gone, let the children and grandchildren decide. "

Jia Xu seemed to understand, but she didn't understand!
"I'll go down to patrol the city, and I'll thank Guangchang Tinghou."

Cao Peng turned around and walked down the tower silently along Chidao, while Jia Xu stood behind him, looking at Cao Peng silently, with a thoughtful light in his eyes.

Cao Youxue, what do you mean by these words?
————————————————————————————————————

On the empty streets, there are bloodstains that cannot be washed away.

In the corners, there are still some stumps and broken arms... Presumably, they are the traces left by Yan Liang when he slaughtered the city with the white horse.

Cao Peng didn't ride a horse, but walked silently on the street.

The soldiers who shuttled back and forth seemed to be in a hurry and very busy.

If Xu You knew that the white horse was lost, he would definitely launch a counterattack frantically.If he mobilizes troops and horses to attack the white horse, although it is only for one day, can he really hold on?Cao Peng is not sure!Even after experiencing the Battle of Quyang, he still hesitated.

The case of the Battle of Quyang is difficult to replicate.

On the surface, it seems that it is much easier to keep the white horse than to keep Quyang.

But if you think about it carefully, you will find that the two cannot be compared at all.It may be more difficult than Quyang to keep the white horse.

There were many accidental factors in the battle of Quyang.

And Yuan Shao's obsession with the white horse is probably far better than Lu Bu's obsession with Qu Yang.

Therefore, if you want to fight this battle well, you must pay more.And what Cao Peng can rely on now, except for the infantry battalion in his hand, seems to be that Cao Cao can only solve Liu Bei within a day and return to his aid.But what are the chances of winning?
You know, Cao Cao didn't have Guan Yunchang in his hands this time.

Without Guan Yunchang, naturally there would be no records of Zhan Yanliang and Zhu Wenchou.

No, this battle must be fought, and it must be fought well, skillfully, skillfully, cleanly and crisply... Cao Peng alone may not be enough to do it.

"What is this place?"

Before he knew it, Cao Peng came to the gate of a house.

There are many soldiers guarding the gate of the house, which seems to be an important place.

"This is where Yuan Jun stationed his supplies."

"Really?" Cao Peng walked up the steps, "Go in and have a look."

Gan Ning followed Cao Peng closely, the two entered the house for about a stick of incense, and saw Cao Peng running out of the house excitedly.

"Quick, ask Duting to come quickly."

He stood on the steps and called out loudly.

There was a look of excitement on his face...
