"Thirty thousand elite men in armor were completely wiped out. What kind of faces do you two have? I'll see you later. Where are the swordsmen and axemen under the tent? Push them out and behead them to show the strictness of military law!"
"No!"
Cao Jun¡¯s Camp - Inside the Central Military Tent, Cao Cao¡¯s face was livid and furious. He kept slapping his desk, his pen was broken into three sections, and ink was splashing everywhere
Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen, with disheveled hair and topless bodies, were kneeling on the ground with shame on their faces. They were so scolded that they could hardly look up. The swordsmen and axemen rushed in, preparing to drag them out and behead them!
This time when he marched to the south, Cao Cao ignored the criticism and insisted on re-employing the generals of the clan, just to let them perform meritorious service on the battlefield and gain promotions. This would not only expand the power of the Cao family, but also restrain generals with different surnames. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone!
"It's a pity that the mud can't hold up the wall. Cao Cao was like a considerate father. He adjusted the temperature and consistency of the milk, and used the most exquisite little spoon to slowly feed it to his child one bite at a time. Unexpectedly the child vomited milk!
Thirty thousand elite men in armor faced off against an old and weak enemy. Not only were they defeated in one battle, but their entire army was destroyed. Cao's army had been fighting in all directions for more than ten years. How had Cao's army ever suffered such a heavy loss or such humiliation?
What is even more depressing is that the left and right wings are also making slow progress. Xiahou Dun and Xia Houyuan attacked Zhangling County, but were blocked by Wenpin, a famous general in Jingzhou, and did not gain any advantage; Cao Ren and Cao Hong advanced towards Jiangxia County, but were stopped by Liu Qi's men at Jiang. Water, several water battles were lost!
An army of more than 400,000 soldiers marched south with earth-shattering momentum, but they failed to win a single battle or conquer a single city. Instead, they lost troops and generals. This was like a loud slap on Cao Cao's old face. How could he not become angry from shame?
What¡¯s more, the reuse of clan generals has made the civil and military forces of different surnames quite dissatisfied. Now that Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen have been defeated and fled back, if Cao Cao does not enforce the law impartially, I am afraid that the people in the army will not be convinced, and this battle will no longer be fought!
The swordsmen and axemen swarmed up, tied up the two generals, and pushed them outside the central army tent. They each drank a bowl of farewell wine and were ready to kill him At this time, someone came out to intercede!
"Beheading the generals at the last moment of battle will be detrimental to the army. I hope the Prime Minister will show mercy and allow the two generals to make meritorious deeds!"
"Victory or defeat is a common thing for soldiers. The two generals have tried their best and were injured in many places. If they are beheaded because of this and lose the battle in the future, who would dare to return to the camp?"
?¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
Cheng Yu, Liu Ye, Man Chong, Mao Jie came out to request one after another. Firstly, they were officials in the same dynasty and could not ignore death; secondly, they knew in their hearts that Cao Cao did not really want to kill these two people!
In recent years, Cao Cao has vigorously supported clan generals in order to restrict the rise of Xiao Yi and maintain the balance within the group. Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen are rising stars and key training targets. How could he easily kill them just because of a defeat? ?
Therefore, regardless of whether everyone pleads for mercy or not, Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen will at most be punished and will not really lose their heads. Since this is expected, it is better to be a favor and say a few nice words!
"Well for everyone's sake, let's keep the heads of the two generals for the time being. However, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living penalty cannot be escaped. Each of them will be beaten with fifty military sticks as a penalty for defeating the army!"
"If we are to remove these two men from their official positions and serve in the army with their bodies, and if we dare to violate military law again, we will be punished for both crimes and will not be spared!"
"No!"
As everyone guessed, Cao Cao did not want to kill the two of them. Since the civil and military ministers asked for mercy, he went along with it. However, in order to show justice, punishment is inevitable!
"Crack! Pah!Ouch!Ouch!"
The axemen withdrew and replaced them with executioners. They used five-color sticks with thick arms and whipped Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen on the backs. They were beaten to a bloody pulp and screamed in agony. The law enforcement officials counted the numbers and could not spare them even a moment. !
Fortunately, the executioners knew that one was the prime minister's adopted son and the other was the prime minister's nephew. They both had some strength left in their hands. They looked bloody, but in fact they did not hurt the internal muscles and bones. They could apply medicine and rest for a few days and they would be fine!
"Thank you, Prime Minister, for not killing me, and thank you for your mercy. We will certainly make meritorious deeds and wash away the humiliation of today's defeat!"
"The defeat of Wancheng this time was not due to our incompetence. The enemy was actually too cunning. Xu Shu first sent an army to attack the camp at night, and then took advantage of our unpreparedness"
After the execution, with the support of the soldiers under the tent, Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen returned to the tent, knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and then recounted the defeat in detail. It doesn't matter if you lost the battle, at least you know how to lose!
"His! His!I see. I didn't expect the enemy general to be so cunning, so defeat is reasonable!"
Everyone also calmed down and listened to the two men's stories. First they were confused, then surprised, and finally fell silent. The anger on Cao Cao's face dissipated a lot, but was replaced by a thick cloud of sadness!
Xu Shu's strategy of serial sneak attacks is indeed extremely sophisticated. Not to mention Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen, even veterans who have been on the battlefield dare not say that they can see it. If it were someone else to lead the army, I am afraid they would not be able to escape defeat. End!
What¡¯s even more frightening is that Xu Shu is so good at strategy, and is only the second-ranking counselor within Liu Bei¡¯s small group. How talented is Zhuge Kongming, who is above him, and how difficult to deal with him?
After the army entered Jingzhou, I heard the local scholars say: "Wolong and Phoenix, if two people get one, the world can be settled." Zhuge Kongming is "Mr. Wolong", and Fengchu is Xiangyang-Pang Tong. Although this statement is suspected of exaggeration , but it also proves to a certain extent that Kong Ming has the talent of Wang Zuo!
And Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun are all enemies of ten thousand people. Liu Bei has counselors and tiger generals, just like a lively carp, which may turn into a golden dragon at any time when encountering wind and cloud. Who can control it then?
The rise of a tycoon in troubled times is very detrimental to the Cao Ying Group's southern expedition and the great cause of unification!
"Liu Bei is hypocritical and good at buying people's hearts. Now with Kong Ming and Xu Shu as his counselors and Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun as his minions, his strength continues to expand. He must be eliminated as soon as possible to avoid leaving behind troubles. Do you have any good strategies?"
Cao Cao also looked worried. Liu Bei only had one county and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. If he couldn't deal with him, how could he subdue the more powerful Liu Biao?
Once the war drags on, it will consume countless amounts of food, grass, ordnance, not only increase the pressure on the rear, but also affect the morale of the entire army, which will lead to a feeling of war weariness. This time, the troops are forcibly sent!
There are also several princes in the towns of Hanzhong, Jiangdong, and Yizhou who have been waiting and watching. If they see that Cao Jun cannot even capture a Wancheng, their fear will be greatly reduced, and they will send troops to help Jingzhou. When the horses come out, Cao Jun will be in a hurry!
"Liu Bei is good at employing people, Xu Shu is good at strategy, Kong Ming is unfathomable If our army wants to win quickly, we must ask the Great Sima to take action!"
"The great Sima, both civil and military, will definitely be able to conquer Wancheng and capture Liu Bei, Xu Shu, Kong Ming and others alive. Please give me the order, Prime Minister!"
?¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
The important civil and military ministers came forward one after another to advise Cao Cao, hoping that Cao Cao would put down his prejudices and let Xiao Yi take command on the battlefield and be responsible for attacking Wancheng. In addition to being a great Sima who was good at fighting, he was also Liu Bei's nemesis. The abusive big-eared Ah Fu was extremely miserable!
There are rumors among the people that Liu Bei's face is like a crown jade and his ears are very big. This is because the Jade Rabbit from the Moon Palace descended to earth. Xiao Yi was the reincarnation of the Greedy Wolf Star King, and the wolf was born to defeat the rabbit, so he defeated Liu Bei several times. Folk children also have it. Ballad:
Uncle Liu Huang, it is difficult to start a business, he is busy running away day and night.
"Xuzhou was lost and Hebei was defeated. The two ladies couldn't care about it.
If you want to ask why this is,
It¡¯s not because you don¡¯t have a lot of strategy in mind, it¡¯s just because you¡¯re afraid of the greedy wolf!
"Well Xiao Lang is in charge of the rear army and is responsible for the transportation of grain and fodder. This matter is related to the lifeline of the entire army. I'm afraid I can't leave without permission easily!"
"Besides, Liu Bei is a hypocrite and a hypocrite. How can he kill a chicken with a bull's knife? As long as he sends a few generals there, he will be able to defeat the enemy and capture Wancheng!"
Cao Cao pondered for a while and rejected everyone's suggestions. Compared with Liu Bei and Xiao Yi, the former was only as ill as scabies, but the latter was a serious problem. Xiao Yi could not be allowed to make military exploits until it was absolutely necessary, otherwise he would not be able to control him. !
Man Chong and Mao Jie wanted to remonstrate, but were stopped by Cheng Yu's gaze. The Prime Minister has made up his mind and will never change it easily. As for Xiao Yi, does he want to lead the army again, unless Cao's army suffered a disastrous defeat?
In fact, Cao Cao also understood that he was defeated first and his military power was greatly reduced. If he wanted to restore the unfavorable situation, he could not rely on generals named Cao alone. He had to send generals with different surnames to fight and stabilize people's hearts!
"Zhang He and Gao Lan listen to the order and command 50,000 troops to attack Wancheng. They must capture Liu Bei, Kong Ming, and Xu Shu alive, and come back and offer them to me!"
"Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen, please go together, listen to the two generals' tents, and learn more about the use of troops, so as to repay the humiliation of losing troops and defeating generals!"
"No!¡ª¡ªNo!"
Cao Cao began to divide his troops and send generals. In addition to letting Zhang He and Gao Lan send troops to attack Wancheng, he also asked Xu Huang and Yu Jin to lead 30,000 troops each to support the armies on the left and right wings, so as to defeat the Jingzhou troops as soon as possible!
After Zhang He and Gao Lan accepted the order, they immediately mobilized 50,000 elite troops, sounded drums and trumpets, waved flags and shouted, and went to kill Wancheng And what was their opponent Liu Bei doing at this time? (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
