Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Cao Pi came up with a proposition.

If Yin Jian could not give the correct answer, not only would he have ruined his own life, but he might also have ruined the life and official career of Wu Liang, Marquis of Yongqiu.

Fortunately, Wu Liang knows people well. He chose Yin Jian from several old brothers of the Huan army to serve as the military officer because of his adaptability. Yin Jian, in charge of the Tuan army, often dealt with the gentry and the Tuntian army in the Chenliu area, and his ability in this area has also been further improved.

Therefore, before Cao Pi finished speaking, Yin Jian had already realized the seriousness of the problem, and immediately bowed his head and said with a big gift: "The Huan army has been directly ordered by Minggong since its establishment, and the last general is naturally the army under Minggong's command." At that time, but these rules were also set by Ming Gong. If the general breaks the rules, he will break the rules of Ming Gong. At the end of the day, he will not only be unable to explain to Yongqiuhou, but also to Ming Gong. Please forgive me, Mr. Cao. crime."

"I came to inspect this time just at the order of my father. You should have met my son and uncle, and you know his duties by my father's side. He can testify."

Seeing that Yin Jian is so avoiding the important and neglecting the trivial, Cao Pi was a little annoyed. He was only a teenager after all, and it was the first time he had met someone like Yin Jian who was not good at anything. Confused, he had to move out Cao Chun beside him to further increase the pressure.

"I've seen General Cao. I don't know if General Cao has brought Minggong's letter with him?"

Yin Jian turned around again and saluted Cao Chun.

Cao Chun didn't answer Yin Jian's question directly, and said in a similarly evasive way: "The matter of supervision is indeed what Duke Ming wanted, and my coming here with you is the best proof, so why do you need to bring Duke Ming's letter? "

Boss Cao meant to get rid of the Huan army without leaving any traces, so it is absolutely impossible for things like hand orders to exist.

Similarly, this matter naturally cannot cause too much impact, let alone make a fuss.

Otherwise, Boss Cao would directly send a large army to exterminate the Huan army. How could the mere [-]-strong craftsman army resist it? Why did Cao Pi use the excuse of "supervising" to enter the Huan army's garrison before making further plans?
"If this is the case, please forgive me for not being able to follow orders in the end. It is best for Mr. Cao and General Cao to wait for Marquis Yongqiu to come back to supervise. At that time, Mr. Cao and General Cao will do well, and the general will treat Ming Gong and Marquis Yongqiu as well. There must be an explanation, otherwise your life will be in jeopardy."

Yin Jian bowed slightly again, and while aiming at a tiger and leopard knight behind them, he smiled apologetically at them.

At this time, Yin Jian became more and more suspicious of the purpose of the two of them coming here.

He knew in his heart that if it was an ordinary inspection, especially one that crossed the army, he would definitely carry a tiger amulet or a letter from his superiors.

Otherwise, Xiahoudun's men would be able to supervise Cheng Yu's Chenliu garrison without going through Cheng Yu with just a few words, and Yu Jin's men could pass Zhang Liao to supervise Zhang Liao's army casually. Wouldn't Cao's army be all messed up?

What's more, there are other risks in this matter, even in the emperor's family. If the prince can casually supervise the emperor's Habayashi guards, then killing his father and usurping the throne is simply a piece of cake. It is precisely to prevent this kind of thing from happening Therefore, there are such things as Tiger Talismans or Sentences. …

Also.

Ordinary supervisors shouldn't need to bring so many people, right?

And behind Cao Pi and Cao Chun, there are more than [-] Tiger and Leopard Cavalry soldiers. This is almost all the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. This posture does not look like they are coming to supervise, but more like planning to take over the people. military garrison.

and also.

Although Yin Jian knew that Boss Cao and Yuan Shao were at war, and therefore knew that Boss Cao was under a lot of pressure, he also knew that it had nothing to do with the Huan army.

After all, the Huan army only has a mere [-] men. If Boss Cao and Yuan Shao start, the scale of the battle will be unprecedented, and the [-] men of the Huan army are simply a drop in the bucket for such a war.

What's more, Boss Cao himself promised Wu Liang that he would not force him to join the war with the Tuan army. Even if he really planned to break his promise, he would definitely make a request to Wu Liang in person, instead of sending someone to supervise him knowing that he was not there. .

In short, there are many doubts about this matter. Although Yin Jian didn't understand it, he would never let Cao Pi, Cao Chun and Hubaoqi enter the garrison of the Huren Army easily.

Free these.

"Six blessings..."

While Yin Jian was dealing with Cao Pi and Cao Chun, he did not forget to turn his head and wink at a short and fat man behind him.

The name of this short and fat man is Xu Liufu, and he was also one of the six veterans of the Huren Army who followed Wu Liang at first. Although he was mediocre and could not be a general, he is now a military uncle in the army, and he can be regarded as Yin Jian's deputy. .

Xu Liufu understood Yin Jian's meaning with a glance, nodded immediately and trotted back to the station.

Don't look at the fact that the Tuan army is idle on weekdays, but under Yin Jian's jurisdiction, they have never slacked off on training, so that every time Wu Liang goes out to select personnel, everyone selected will not lose the chain.

This is just the effort of two cups of tea.

The generals of the Liberal Army have secretly completed their assembly, and all of them are fully armed, holding the Warring States Repeater Crossbow in their hands, and carrying an engineering shovel, which is extremely rare in the regular army, on their backs for emergencies.

Besides.

There are also some soldiers equipped with "innuendo" that once made great achievements in Wancheng. This kind of thing was originally reserved for Wu Liang to use, but now the situation is a bit special. After knowing the situation, it can only be taken out for the soldiers of the Huan army.

Anyway, it's better than Cao Pi taking over the Tuan army's garrison, so that these good things end up in the hands of others.

"Yin Junhou, have you thought it through?"

No matter who Cao Chun was, he could see through Yin Jian's private actions at a glance, and immediately frowned and warned, "Supervision is a trivial matter, but if you refuse to obey, even if General Wu comes back, it will be difficult to save your life, and maybe you will be hurt. defeated General Wu and the generals of the Tuan army."

"How the last general disobeys orders is only his responsibility, and he really dare not make his own claims."

Yin Jian still doesn't get in.

He knows that his judgment may not necessarily be correct, so he has already made preparations to be held accountable in the future, but at this moment, even if there is even a trace of doubt, he must persist to the end, otherwise he will let Wu Liang and Huan Ren down. military.

If Boss Cao blamed him afterwards, he would take all the responsibility on himself, and he would repay Wu Liang for saving his children, and repay Wu Liang for his kindness. …

"presumptuous!"

At this moment, Cao Pi couldn't bear it anymore, and immediately shouted fiercely, "If I insist on entering the station for inspection, do you think the Huan army can stop me?"

"The last general dares to stop the young master, he just asks the young master to follow the rules."

Yin Jian didn't change his face, and gave another salute, but silently stepped back a few steps, and returned to the rear of the rejecting horse at the gate of the Huan army's garrison.

at the same time
A small number of people's heads were also exposed on some places on the fence of the station, obviously observing the situation outside.

Although he said he didn't dare.

But the body is honest.

If Cao Pi really dared to order a forceful charge, the Tuan army would definitely launch a counterattack, and then there would be no room for maneuver...

"You...you're fine!"

Cao Pi was furious.

This was something he had thought about before he set off, and he never thought of it. If Cao Pi went to inspect the army, the whole army would welcome him, and he might not be able to leave a good impression on him.

But the Huanren Army was a different kind. Not only did they not let him in without Wu Liang's permission and edict, they even intended to use force against him!
madman!

Bunch of lunatics!
Don't they know that once they make a move, they will be classified as rebels, and in the hinterland of Cao Jun, they have nowhere to escape, only to be wiped out?
Are these people not afraid of death?
at this time.

"Pi'er, let this matter go for now, don't attack by force."

Cao Chun suddenly came close to Cao Pi's ear, shook his head and said softly to him.

"Uncle, how can you indulge the Huan army like this. If others know about this, it may damage Cao's prestige, and it will be difficult to control the entire army in the future."

Cao Pi has become angry from embarrassment, and said through gritted teeth.

"If it is a strong attack, it will not end."

Cao Chun patiently explained, "Your father meant to deal with this matter in secret. If you forcibly exterminate it, it would be against his original intention. Even if the Tiaoren army is classified as a rebel army, now that the war is imminent, there will be a rebellion in the army. Morale on the frontline is so harmless and has no benefit, this is definitely not the situation your father wants to see."

"But uncle, this is the first task that my father officially entrusted to me. If I can't do this well, my father must be very disappointed in me."

Cao Pi still refused to give up.

After all, he is still too young, too easy to get ahead, and he takes his face very seriously, so now he feels like he is being roasted on the fire. Belittle... After all, there are more than [-] tigers and leopards watching behind him. These are the core confidantes of the Cao family. If even they despise him, it will be difficult for him to raise his head in the future.

"A man can bend and stretch, this is also one of your father's experiences for you."

Cao Chun persuaded again, "Besides, although your father ordered you to deal with the Huren army secretly, he did not set a time limit. If you can solve this matter properly in a long-term way, you will be able to show your talent more, instead of just thinking about it." Heat made poor decisions."

In fact, there are still some situations that Cao Chun did not explain.

For example: Even Cao Chun himself does not have the confidence to gain an absolute advantage in the storm.

Until now, Cao Chun still clearly remembers what happened in Anyi and Wancheng, the thunder that shook the sky, and the innuendo, which will make the Huan army use a sharp weapon against a hundred. …

When Lu Bu's troops faced Zhen Tianlei, they lost their fighting power in just one move.

When Zhang Xiu's troops faced the insinuations, Wu Liang killed the Chinese army with outnumbered enemies, and Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu were forced to kneel down.

This is something that Cao Chun never dared to think about before seeing it with his own eyes.

Although Wu Liang claimed that the Thunderbolts had all been used up, there must still be some insinuations. If faced with a strong attack from Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, the Huanren Army would use these sharp weapons to fight back...

Even if the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry were elite generals who were one in a thousand, they would probably be hard to resist.

The selection and training of Tiger and Leopard Cavalry officers was extremely costly. Even if one person died in battle, it would be equivalent to cutting flesh on Cao Chun's heart. This was not only a loss that he could not afford, but also a loss that Boss Cao could not afford.

If things really get to that point.

Naturally, it was also Cao Chun's major mistake. Otherwise, why did Boss Cao leave him here to assist Cao Pi in handling the matter when he went to Guandu to supervise the battle?
It is said to be assistance, but in fact it is more to control risks, lest Cao Pi do some impulsive things due to lack of care, making things develop in an out-of-control direction.

Cao Chun understands Boss Cao.

Boss Cao is an opportunist.

It would be the best if the uncooked rice could be cooked before Wu Liang came back, and it would save Wu Liangnian and his comrades from being in a dilemma.

But if it really can't be done, Boss Cao can only wait for Wu Liang to come back before putting pressure on him...

"This……"

Cao Pi showed a look of unwillingness on his face. He knew that Cao Chun's words were reasonable, but he still couldn't swallow it.

Just like this stalemate.

"Come on! Crap!..."

There was a rush of horseshoes in the distance.

A small group of ten or so horses was approaching quickly, the horse had obviously run to the limit, but the person sitting on it was still whipping hard, saying "drive" to drive it away.

"Who is coming?"

Cao Pi looked suspicious.

"It's Wang Qing from Cao's Salt Company. Currently, at least [-]% of our army's food and pay is supplied by Cao's Salt Company."

Cao Chun frowned slightly, "This person has a very close relationship with your brother-in-law. I'm afraid he heard some rumors and came here to intercede for the Lian army. Why don't you let him come here first, so that he can retreat with the trend, and he can be sold at the same time. He's a favor."

"..."

Cao Pi already knew that Cao Chun was determined to give up, without Cao Chun's support, even if he was unwilling to do anything, he didn't say anything.

really.

Wang Qing got off his horse from afar, trotted all the way to the front, didn't have time to wipe off the sweat from his temples, and didn't care to catch his breath, so he hurriedly saluted: "I have seen Mr. Cao, I have seen General Cao, I heard that Mr. Cao and General Cao He led people to Yongqiu early in the morning, when the talented and virtuous brother went out, he entrusted the villain to help take care of the family scroll and the Huan army, so the villain came to greet him immediately after hearing the news, but what happened?"

"Supervisor Wang is worrying too much. It's just a routine inspection. There's nothing wrong with it."

Cao Chun smiled calmly, and replied without changing his face.

The result is not finished.

"Come on! Crap!..."

There were more hurried hoofbeats.

Everyone unconsciously turned around and looked, Cao Chun frowned even tighter, then turned around and said softly to Cao Pi: "Among the two people who came this time, there is no need to say more about Cheng Yu, the prefect of Chenliu. Accompanying him is Zhu Lu from Chenliu's Zhu family, who was appointed by your father to be the General of Diannong Zhonglang, in charge of all the farming affairs in Yanzhou, and the Zhu family provided [-]% of our army's food and wages."

"These two are probably here to intercede for the Huan army..."
