Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1729 Abnormal Cao Cao
Just as Cao Pi said something, he subconsciously glanced at the expressions of Cao Cao and Cao Ren.Cao Ren smiled and nodded, expressing encouragement, while Cao Cao frowned again, as if to express that what Cao Pi said was like farting.

What's wrong again?
Cao Pi couldn't help hesitating a bit, but remembering how he was scolded by Cao Cao a few days ago, he continued to look at Cao Cao's face cautiously, and said: "If you don't get in, you should be tired and chaotic, and when you are in chaos, you will You can hide in."

Cao Cao frowned, "How to get tired and chaotic, how to cover up and get in?"

Cao Pi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, racked his brains, sweating slightly on his forehead, "You can pretend to attack the wilderness, if you come out of the city, you can attack it, if you don't come out, you can eat here..."

Cao Ren smiled, nodded, and said, "That's a good strategy!"

Cao Cao raised his brows slightly, nodded and said, "It's a good idea... So, let you take some soldiers and horses and go to the surrounding area to prepare military supplies..."

Cao Pi was stunned for a moment, then reacted to Cao Cao's stern gaze, bowed his head and cupped his hands.

After watching Cao Pi retreat, Cao Ren couldn't help but said to Cao Cao: "Brother, you may be too strict..."

"How can jade be crafted?" Cao Cao waved his hand, and then said solemnly to Cao Ren, "Zixiao, under the city of Ye, I entrust it to you!"

Cao Ren nodded and walked out under the command.

Although it is said that the strategy of exhausting troops was adopted in Yecheng, it is not good for Yuan Tan and Xia Houyuan who are outside to be prepared, and it is even worse not to be prepared, but in the same way, the soldiers in Yecheng also ran several times, and their strength was also depleted. Quite a lot.

Not long after Wen Chou lay down, he heard the sound of war drums, turned over and sat up, and then put on his armor with the assistance of his guards, preparing for the next attack.

This time it's for real.All the soldiers, including Wen Chou, will rush out of the city in groups of 50 people carrying fire, and burn the half-built watchtowers and sentry towers.

At this time, the wind had stopped, and the drums were rumbling from the top of the city, but the four doors were closed tightly.According to the previous agreement, Wen Chou led the troops out after the drums stopped.

Standing at the foot of the city, Wen Chou looked up at the Yuan family flag on the city wall, and looked at the crumpled "Yuan" character on the flag because it was hanging low. It seemed to shrink into a ball, looking lonely and small, and there were many people around. Banners also bowed their heads as if accepting their fate.

It was almost dusk, and the sun was hidden in the clouds and disappeared, which added a bit of chill.

The drums stopped.

Wen Chou was stunned for a moment, then he came to his senses, silently took the saber handed over by the guards on the side, walked forward, quietly gathered under the city gate, and then waited for the suspension bridge to be lowered and the city gate opened, and made a noise One sound, swarm out!

The man who was digging the trench on the opposite side suddenly shouted, dropped the tool in his hand deftly, and ran back, some even ran faster than Wen Chou and others, as if they were used to this kind of one-on-one back mode.

Wen Chou led the soldiers to the ditch, hacked and killed those who were slow to escape, or those whose feet were soft and unable to escape. He was about to order the soldiers to set fire, when he suddenly felt a little vacant under his feet, tilted, and almost fell fall.

"Why is this ditch surface so loose?"

Before Wen Chou could figure out what was going on, a guard beside him shouted, "General, the head of the city ordered us to set fire..."

"Okay! Set fire!" Wen Chou shouted, waving his saber.

The soldiers threw the firelights they carried onto the half-built sentry towers and arrow towers in front of the ditch, and then lit them before retreating slowly.

On the top of Yecheng city, Yuan Shang looked at the burning fires everywhere, laughed, and praised the judge a few times, then went down the city gate building with a happy heart, and went back to the government office.

"Judging Lord... are you still going to attack this evening?" The military marquis on the top of the city looked at the judge's mood and seemed to be in a good mood, so he boldly stepped forward and said, "After these days, the soldiers are also tired... ..."

The judge looked at the sentry towers and watchtowers that were ignited like huge torches outside the city, stroked his beard, nodded and said: "I won't attack tonight, and I'll fix it..."

...(=ˇωˇ=)...

In the distance from Yecheng, Cao Jun camped.

Xia Houyuan looked at the sky, then looked back at the burning sentry towers and arrow towers under Yecheng, and said, "Do you want to act tonight?"

Cao Ren also looked into the distance, and his eyes seemed to be dancing with the flames of the watchtowers and watchtowers below the city, "That's right! After burning these watchtowers in the city, you must be relaxed. It's the night when the clouds are thick and the stars are dim. Perfect timing!"

Xia Houyuan nodded and said, "That's tonight!" After a moment of silence, he said, "Also, I've been wondering why my lord didn't directly attack the city? I also looked at the soldiers in the city, that's it, if A strong attack can also be attacked..."

Looking at the dark outline of Ye City in the distance, Cao Ren said, "You know it's a forced attack? It's not difficult to attack the city, but the hard part is not to hurt soldiers! If we really attack by force, the boys over there will be very happy... Besides, if the loss in Yecheng is too great, what power is left to control other places? What if..." Cao Ren swallowed the second half of the sentence and stopped.

Xia Houyuan suddenly said, "So that's the case, it's because you are thoughtful..."

"It's not my idea, it's my lord's idea..." Cao Ren patted Xia Houyuan's shoulder, "Let's go, let's go get ready together..."

... (⊙⊙) ...

Wen Chou nodded silently, gave the order, then turned around and went down the city wall.I originally wanted to tell the judge about the abnormality in the trench outside the city, but the judge didn't seem to have much desire to talk to him, even the orders were given by the military lord, Wen Chou hesitated for a while, and finally said nothing .

Under the city wall, there were groups of soldiers who had not yet had their turn to be on duty, either sitting or standing, chattering at one another, and the small sounds came all the way and got into Wen Chou's ears.

"Aren't they all brothers? Why do you have to fight? Didn't a lot of people die last time? This time again? When will this day be the end?"

"You fucking don't say a few words! Can you fucking say such a thing?"

"Damn! I've done everything, why don't people say it? You don't have a seed, if you knew that labor and capital would not save you in Yijing!"

"I didn't grow it? You stupid ball! It's like this now, what's the use of you talking? Why don't you save some energy and sleep on you!"

"Shut up! The general is here..."

"..." Wen Chou walked over indifferently, as if he didn't hear what these guys were talking about.

Brothers, all brothers...

As Wen Chou was walking, he suddenly felt a pain in his heart, Brother Yan, how are you doing under the Nine Springs?

Back at the temporary station, several guards saw Wen Chou coming, and while going up to remove Wen Chou's armor, they asked, "Do you want to attack again?"

"No need," Wen Chou sat down, stretched out his hand to grab a spoon, beat two or three spoonfuls of paste into the soup pot on the campfire, and said while drinking, "tonight everyone Take a good rest..."

"Haha, that's great!"

"What's the matter, it's not that you don't need to fight tomorrow..."

"If you can live a day, you can count it as a day. Anyway, rest tonight! Go to bed!"

Because Wen Chou let Yuan Tan escape last time, although he said that he was spared the death penalty, the living crime cannot be forgiven.In addition, Yuan Tan made a comeback this time, and Yuan Shang disliked Wen Chou even more, and Wen Chou knew it well, so he stayed with ordinary soldiers for a while, eating and living together like a big soldier.

Wen Chou drank two bowls of paste, licked the wooden bowl, then threw it aside, took the wet towel brought by the guard, wiped his face casually, and lay down on the hay mat beside him, smelling the smell of sweat The smell of grass, hay, and some stinky feet were mixed together, which made my nose a little choked, but I didn't know why, but I calmed down.

Charge, victory, retreat, defeat, the scenes of the previous battle, emerged in the mind, and then gradually faded away, isn't it life and death, just like that...

If you are alive, you will repay the kindness of your benefactor, and if you die, you will go to see your brother.

Others, if you want to control it, you can't control it, so let him do it, and do whatever you want.

Wen Chou closed his eyes and sighed silently, this is his fate, his own fate.

...(￣,￣)...

In the night, Cao Ren and Xia Houyuan looked at each other, nodded, and then waved.

The gate of the big camp opened quietly, and the soldiers who had already lined up came out in a single file. Looking at the number of people surging in the dark night, they turned out to be all out!

That's all for trained soldiers, but it's more difficult for civilians who haven't received much training to understand without making a sound, so each of the civilians who follow the soldiers is tied with a mouthpiece, uh, a piece of paper , and some even drool all the way because they were tied too tightly, hahahaha...

In the past few days, Cao Jun seemed to be lazy, and he was chased around by the defenders in Yecheng like a rabbit. In fact, he had secretly moved a lot of hands and feet, changing his soldiers to become The folks, at the place where the trench was originally dug, a lot of soil has been loosened.

On the surface, it seems that the trench is not deep, and it doesn't look like it. In addition, the judges have been paying attention to the conspicuous sentry towers and arrow towers, thinking that these sentry towers and arrow towers are the focus of protecting the excavation of the trench. However, these sentry towers Hejian Tower is actually a cover...

According to the original plan, each team of soldiers led a team of civilian men, carrying baskets, shovels, picks, and other tools, to spread out along the trench, taking advantage of the night to dig up all the loose soil layers.

The screeching sound suddenly continued outside Yecheng, like thousands of mice punching holes in the corner, which was a bit creepy.

"What's that sound?"

The soldiers guarding the city of Yecheng threw several torches on the battlements and lit them in all directions.Where the light reaches, there seems to be nothing, and the distance is hidden in the darkness, making it impossible to see clearly.

"Do you... want to report?" the soldier asked.

The military marquis on duty was a little hesitant, and finally chose to send someone to report to the city. Compared with the crime of disturbing the nobleman's sleep at night, if something really went wrong, the head on his neck would be hard to save.

Martial law had already been established in Yecheng, and no one was allowed to run around in the streets after nightfall. The small soldiers responsible for conveying the military information rushed all the way from the city gate, and the sound of footsteps broke the calm night.

The streets and civilian houses near the city gate have all been requisitioned by soldiers and horses. At this time, many soldiers were lying in their clothes. Hearing the hurried footsteps of the messengers, some soldiers who were awakened raised their heads to look. Of course, Even if more soldiers heard about it, they just turned over, muttered and cursed twice, and then fell asleep again.

In the past few days, the censors have used the strategy of exhausting soldiers. In fact, these soldiers who take turns to fight are not easy. They finally don't go out tonight. Naturally, they have to sleep in the dark.

The messenger walked along the street and went straight to the trial mansion.

"Who is here?!" Outside the trial mansion, the guards were heavily guarded, and when they saw someone rushing, they immediately shouted in a deep voice.

"Small, small, there is an urgent military situation!" The orderly replied.

The trial and appointment guard was startled. While holding the fire, he stepped forward to check and asked secretly: "But the city is under attack?"

The messenger took a breath and said, "That's never happened..."

Hearing that there was no siege, the escort guards couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. As for the specific military situation, they didn't dare to ask more, so they collected the number plate of the messenger's weapon, and then sent someone to report it, while guarding it. Walk in the government office.

In the government office, the judge had already gone to bed early.

In the past two days, the trial and assignment has been on the city. For a person who is over half a hundred years old, staying up all night is already very hard and consumes a lot of energy. Today, the front sentry towers and watchtowers were burned. After my heart relaxed a lot, I returned to the government office, and couldn't help dozing off halfway through the bath, and fell asleep after eating some casually.

"Hi! Judge Shen just slept not long ago..." The confidant of the judge who was on duty outside the inner courtyard looked at the soldier who came forward with some annoyance. The soldier's number plate, and dropped a sentence, "Waiting!"

Turning around the corridor, outside the residence of Shen Pei, the confidant guard first knocked on the door, and then called out in a low voice: "Mr. Shen... Mr. Shen... there is an urgent report from the military..."

He yelled again, and a somewhat hoarse voice from the judge came from inside, "Come in..."

The judge did not have time to wear the crown, so with loose hair and a big cloak, he came to see the messenger and asked, "But you are here to attack the city? How many soldiers and horses? Who is the general?"

"Uh..." Xiao Bing hesitated for a moment, then said, "Report to the judge...and, there is no siege..."

The judge exhaled, and immediately frowned, "There is no siege, so what is the military situation?"

The messenger trembled and said that he heard some strange noises on the city wall.

"Weird sound?" The judge was thinking about it, then turned around and asked, "What time is it?"

The guard looked at the water leak beside him and said, "It's been three quarters of the ugly time..."

"Decree! Guard the city gate!" The commissioner ordered, "Throw out the torches, inspect the city river and the suspension bridge! The rest of the matter will be discussed at dawn!" Normally speaking, the decision of the commissioner is not wrong at all, discrediting Sending troops is indeed not a safe move, and it should be less risky to wait for Tianming to see clearly before making a decision.But the judge didn't know that his current opponent was no longer the normal Yuan Tan, but Cao Cao who liked the abnormal and did not take the usual path...
