After Yao Qiong made the plan, he sent someone to Guatai Mountain overnight to deliver the message.
At this moment, there are still 10,000 infantry troops on Guatai Mountain, led by Cao Ren's eldest son, Cao Tai.
In the past few days, Cao Tai's life has not been good.
On the one hand, in the direction of Shanggui City, Xia Houyuan and Huang Zhong were in a tense confrontation, and they might send a signal at any time to rush for help.
On the other hand, the 10,000 Qiang cavalry led by my father have been away for several days and have not returned yet.
Originally, he was supposed to go to support Wang Yuan, but no news was sent back, as if everything was lost in the sea.
Worrying about his father was secondary. After all, Cao Tai still had some confidence in the combat effectiveness of the Qiang cavalry.
You shouldn¡¯t encounter any big trouble.
In fact, what worried him the most was that his father had delayed the decisive battle at Shanggui City because of the situation at Wangyuan.
It would be a very serious sin to delay the opportunity to defeat Huang Zhong's main force.
Therefore, Cao Tai has been so worried about these things these days that he can't even sleep well.
This night, Cao Tai had just fallen asleep and was still tossing and turning when he heard movement outside the tent.
¡°Please let me know, I have an important letter that I want to submit to the general here.¡±
"General Cao just went to bed. Please put the letter down and I will deliver it tomorrow."
The person who replied was one of Cao Tai's personal followers. Naturally, he had seen everything that happened to Cao Tai in the past few days.
Seeing that Cao Tai finally fell asleep today, how could he bear to disturb him, so he blocked the messenger outside the door.
However, before this messenger arrived, he had been repeatedly warned by Yao Qiong. After arriving, he must submit the letter to the general as soon as possible without any delay.
So he was very responsible and did not follow the instructions of his personal entourage and insisted on going into the account to report the matter face to face.
In this way, one party fulfilled their duties, and the other felt sorry for Cao Tai. The two refused to give in and even started arguing outside the tent.
Cao Tai, who had just fallen asleep, was awakened by the sound outside, and couldn't help complaining: "What's disturbing outside the tent?"
When the followers heard this, they were so frightened that they quickly confessed.
When the messenger heard the movement in the tent, his eyes suddenly lit up and he shouted loudly, completely ignoring the look on his face that instantly turned ugly.
"General, I am sent by General Wangyuan Yao Qiong. I have an important military report. Please give me your permission, General."
When Cao Tai, who was still a little sleepy, heard the news that it was Wang Yuan who came, he immediately became energetic.
¡°Get your money in quickly!¡±
The messenger glanced at his entourage with satisfaction, immediately broke through the other party's obstruction, and strode into the tent.
Cao Tai had already sat up, took the letter presented by the messenger and immediately began to read it.
The more he looked at Cao Tai, the uglier his face became. Finally, he stood up with a loud noise and shouted outside the tent: "Cao An, order the entire army to assemble urgently!"
Cao An is the one who just stopped outside. Because he has been serving around him since he was a child and grew up with Cao Tai, he was lucky enough to be given a surname.
When Cao An heard Cao Tai's arrangement, his whole body trembled. He didn't dare to show any signs of neglect and immediately ran to deliver the order.
"Dang! Dang! Dang"
A fierce and high-pitched sound of gongs suddenly woke up the sleeping soldiers.
After hearing the signal, generals at all levels rushed to Cao Tai's camp as soon as possible.
In just a quarter of an hour, the tent was already crowded with people.
Everyone¡¯s faces were still sleepy, and some were even yawning. They were all very puzzled that Cao Tai had summoned everyone here late at night.
Cao Tai held up the letter in his hand and explained to everyone that Cao Ren had led his army in pursuit and had not returned yet.
When the generals heard this, they were all shocked.
Afterwards, without waiting for anyone else to say more, Cao Tai said directly: "Everyone, my father is very likely to have been ambushed by the other party.
We can't ignore it. This general is preparing to lead the army to attack. Please go back and gather the army quickly. We must set off in half an hour! "
When everyone heard this, their spirits perked up and they quickly went down to prepare.
But at this time, a subordinate general stepped forward and said: "Little general, it is our duty to rescue the general.
"It's just that the army has another task to support Shanggui. If a signal comes from there at this moment, what should we do?" "
When this person said this, Cao Tai's brows instantly furrowed.
He had only thought about rescuing his father before and had forgotten all the mission of Shanggui. After this reminder, he finally remembered.
But now that the situation is urgent, it is impossible to wait for someone to go to Shanggui to ask for instructions.
So Cao Tai directly told the man: "Please ask the general to go to Shanggui in person and explain to General Xiahou.
It was said that my father was in danger and had to leave for a few days. After the things over there are taken care of, return immediately.
It would also help General Xiahou prepare in his mind to avoid delaying the opportunity to fight. "
After giving the order, Cao Tai no longer cared about anything else and went out to command the army in person to pack up and set off.
Although Cao Tai has mostly infantry, he is still very fast.
It was still dark before we arrived at Wangyuan City.
Afterwards, Cao Tai did not enter the city directly, but was notified by the courier who returned with him, preparing to meet up with Yao Qiong and set off immediately.
Yao Qiong was worried about Cao Ren and did not sleep well that night.
When he heard the message from outside, he finally said in surprise: "It's finally here. If you go back and report it, just tell me I'll be here right away!"
Not long after, the gate of Wangyuan City was fully opened. Yao Qiong took the lead and led the defenders in the city to welcome them out.
At this moment, there are only a few thousand defenders in Wangyuan City, and this time almost half of them were led out by Yao Qiong.
After these people met up with Cao Tai, they communicated briefly and immediately rushed in the direction that Cao Ren chased yesterday.
¡°Young general, there is rare flat land all around Wangyuan City, only fifteen miles to the north are the mountains.
Looking at the direction of General Cao Ren's pursuit, it was exactly that direction, so the official thought that General Cao might have encountered a situation in the mountains over there. "
Cao Tai followed Yao Qiong's words and couldn't help but look to the north.
In the distance, I saw a mountain ridge emerging from the flat ground. At dawn, it looked like a giant dragon lying there.
Cao Tai couldn't help but feel an ominous feeling in his heart.
He immediately shouted loudly: "The whole army is running forward, and we must rush over in the shortest possible time! Anyone who delays or falls behind will be dealt with according to military law!"
Having already traveled all the way, the soldiers were a little tired.
But Cao Tai was worried about his father and did not give everyone a chance to rest, and forced the army to march northward.
While on the road, the sun finally rose slowly, and the traces on the ground became more and more obvious.
The further north you go, you will see some corpses scattered on the road.
However, what made Cao Tai feel a little relieved was that most of these corpses were dressed as enemy soldiers, and few of them belonged to the Qiang cavalry led by Cao Ren.
But Cao Tai was even more surprised. Judging from the situation, his father had achieved great results, but why was there no news? (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
