Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 153 Arriving at Cao Jun's Camp
Ren outside the city.
The barracks are endless, with flags fluttering and flying with the wind, countless cooking smoke rises in the barracks, wisps of white smoke float up to the sky.

There are two white flags in the middle of the army, with four big characters of "revenge and hatred" written on it, and a big flag with the word "Cao" inserted in the middle of the two white flags, which is half higher. This is where Cao Cao's army camped.

As the sun sets in the west, the golden afterglow adds to the solemnity of this endless camp.

As the setting sun slowly set, the sky gradually dimmed, which meant that night was about to fall. In the endless camps, torches and fire pans were lit everywhere, and everywhere was illuminated. lights up.

Step, step, step.
Suddenly, Cao Jun's guards at the gate of the camp felt a slight tremor on the ground, coming from far and near, and they all became vigilant for a while.

"General, there are more than a hundred cavalry in the distance, coming straight to the camp!" The soldiers on the watchtower on the left side of the camp gate shouted at the general at the camp gate.

"Is the visitor a friend or an enemy?"

"I don't know, that cavalry didn't carry any banners!"

Hearing this, the general didn't hesitate, and shouted: "Put down the barrier and get ready for the battle! Hurry up and report!"

The visitor didn't know whether it was a friend or an enemy, so he needed to make some arrangements. Although he didn't believe anyone, he dared to attack the camp of hundreds of thousands of troops with a hundred cavalry, but he had to guard against it.

The soldiers at the gate of the camp also acted quickly because of the general's order, and lifted the horse barriers placed on the left and right sides and placed them in front of the gate of the camp.

The soldiers with long spears stand behind the horse barrier, with the point of their guns facing the front; the archers on both sides of the gate of the camp are also facing the outside of the camp with their arrows and bows; the generals also stand with their swords in their hands place, looking into the distance.

With such an arrangement, if the hundred or so cavalry came to attack the camp, with just one round of attack, most of the people would be shot and killed outside the camp, and they would not even be able to get close to the camp. What exactly do you want to do.

From time to time
drive~~
More than a hundred cavalry appeared in the eyes of the generals of Cao Jun guarding the gate. The leader was a young general in white robes and silver armor, followed by three generals, and the last was the unified red-clothed and black-armored general.

Although they were all wearing weapons, they didn't pull them out, but came straight to the camp.

General Cao Jun also became a little nervous, holding the left hand hanging on the hilt of the sword tightly, and you can see the appearance of blue veins, but the person who came has not rushed to the attack range, and he has not issued an attack. The command.

woo~~
However, when the hundreds of cavalry were about to enter the range of the archers, they all stopped, still some distance away from the gate of the camp, obviously not here to start a war.

"Who is here?" the gatekeeper shouted.

When he saw more than a hundred cavalrymen parked outside, he knew that these people didn't come to fight, so it was something else, but he still needed to understand why these people came!

"I am Liu Qi of Jingzhou, please go and report to your lord, just say Liu Qi of Jingzhou, come and visit!"

These more than a hundred cavalry are precisely Liu Qi and his party.

"You wait outside first!" Pian Jiang shouted.

Immediately, he gave instructions to a soldier behind him, and waved that soldier to report to the main tent behind him. He had also heard of Liu Qi. After all, Jingzhou has undergone many changes, and Jingzhou is now under Liu Qi. under control.

Although he didn't understand why Liu Qi appeared here in person, it wasn't something he needed to care about. As long as Liu Qi didn't come to attack the camp, the rest of the matter could only be handled by the people above.

Seeing that the general sent someone to report, Liu Qi didn't say any more, and he didn't bring anyone close. It would be bad if there was a misunderstanding. What's more, he came here this time just to persuade Cao Cao to retreat, not to talk to Cao Cao. war started.

"My lord, it seems that Cao Cao also has a lot of capable people. The 30 Qingzhou Army was originally a remnant of the Yellow Turbans. After being incorporated by Cao Cao, it was changed to the Qingzhou Army. Now it is well-trained and disciplined. The barracks are also well-trained. There are rules!" Zhao Yun exclaimed.

Wei Yan also nodded. As a brave and strategic general, he can also see the difference. The camps rely on each other. If someone attacks the camp, unless there are more than half of the troops, they will only be surrounded. Which is eliminated.

Moreover, these Yellow Turbans, who had no fighting power before, are now full of energy. Just as they appeared, the arrangements they made afterwards were different from the past.

"Under Cao Mengde's command, counselors include Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu; generals include Xia Houdun, Xia Houyuan, etc.; plus the 30 Qingzhou troops who have conquered, it is normal to have the power they have today!" Liu Qi nodded.

His eyes were also looking at the endless camps in front of him, and he was also secretly comparing in his heart. If the current Cao Cao went to war with him, most of them would have to lose.

The advisers and generals under his command are no worse than Cao Cao's, and he still has two states, but the difference in military strength is too great, so he has no certainty. What he lacks now is time. As long as he has enough time, he will surely be able to fight.

Although the goalkeeper knew that Liu Qi was not from the battalion, he did not relax his vigilance, and the barricade did not retract, and the soldiers were still on the defensive.

I saw Liu Qi and others talking, they were a little far away, and they were talking in a low voice, so I didn't hear it, but as long as Liu Qi and his party don't overstep, then he doesn't need to pay attention to it, and wait for the person who reported it to come back and reply just fine.

soon
There is a group of people in the camp, surrounded by a person, walking towards the gate of the camp.

Seeing this, Liu Qi and the others also stopped talking, and the real master appeared.

"My lord!" The gatekeeper bowed and saluted.

It was Cao Cao and others who came out of the camp.

Cao Cao, the leader, waved his hand and asked the general to step aside, then walked out of the gate of the camp, looked at Liu Qi who was sitting on horseback, and said: "I heard the report saying: Brother Liu Xian is here, I still don't believe it, come out and go out for a while." Look, it really is!"

"Brother Meng De, it's been a long time since we last saw each other. I heard that Brother Meng De is in Xuzhou, so I came here to visit!" Liu Qi cupped his hands.

He didn't go around the bush, just said it directly, Cao Cao must be able to understand the meaning of the words and know his purpose.

Cao Cao's eyes narrowed, then he smiled and said, "Liu Xiandi, let me tell you about the income, okay?"

"Being respectful is worse than obeying orders!" Liu Qi said without refusing.

Cao Cao also asked the soldiers guarding the gate of the camp to retreat, and removed the horse barrier, allowing Liu Qi and others to enter the camp.

Liu Qi didn't hesitate either, and led Zhao Yun and others into Cao Jun's camp, got off his horse, and followed Cao Cao to the camp.
