Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 494
Ten miles away from Huguankou, Lu Yan's barracks is inside the tent of the Chinese army.

Lu Yan sat in the main seat, beside Lu Lingqi who was the general of Zhendong, and Zhao Xue stood behind Lu Lingqi as a personal bodyguard.

When Lu Yan lowered his head, a group of lieutenant generals headed by Xu Huang, Gan Ning, Hao Zhao and other generals stood.

Ma Chao followed Zhong Yao and Ma Teng into the camp of the Chinese army.

After entering the big tent station, Ma Chao has been hiding behind the crowd and secretly observing Lu Yan and the female general beside Lu Yan.

Ma Chao took a sneak peek at Lu Lingqi who was standing beside Lu Yan, and he was shocked, "Is there such a strange woman in the world?! She has a beautiful face and a myriad of manners, but she is also heroic and majestic!"

After being surprised, Ma Chao looked back slightly, and he saw Zhao Xue behind Lu Lingqi again, "The temperament is cool, the face is beautiful, and the two of them are equally heroic. They are so beautiful and have a good temperament!"

Lu Lingqi and Zhao Xue are both people with keen senses.

When Zhong Yao and others were presenting the ceremony, they suddenly felt a gaze cast on themselves, and they seemed a little presumptuous.

Following his eyes, he turned out to be a young general dressed up by the Xiliang Army.

"Hmph!" Lu Lingqi was naturally extremely dissatisfied, she coldly snorted at Ma Chao who was hiding behind the crowd.

Lu Lingqi's reaction caught the attention of Lu Yan, Zhong Yao and others.

Naturally, Ma Teng also noticed Ma Chao's rude behavior at the first time, so he gave Ma Chao a slap on the back of the head with a "slap", and Ma Teng shouted to Ma Chao: "For those who don't know the etiquette, don't hesitate to apologize to General Hussars!" Apologize!"

Ma Chao is 25 and six years old this year. He has seen and had many women, but he has never seen such a heroic and beautiful woman as Lu Lingqi and Zhao Xue.

But Ma Chao also knew that he was wrong, so he stepped forward and cupped his fists to apologize: "The last general was rude, and I ask the general to forgive me."

This Ma Chao was born with a powdery face, vermilion lips, slender waist and broad shoulders, and a powerful voice. He has the title of Xiliang Brocade Ma Chao, and he looks more handsome than many Central Plains men.

Lu Lingqi's pretty face was frosty and she didn't respond, Lu Yan said, "Xiliang is not a land of alienation, Ma Mengqi, you are also an outstanding person of a generation, you still have to pay attention to etiquette in the future."

Naturally, Ma Chao didn't dare to refute Lu Yan's words, and being able to get a "human being" evaluation from Lu Yan's mouth was enough to cheer Ma Chao a little.

"Thank you, Lu Hussar!" Ma Chao clasped his fists in thanks, and retreated to the queue.

After a small episode, Zhong Yao stood up and asked Lu Yan, "Lu Hussar, what should we do next?"

Zhong Yao's situation is different from that of Lu Yan. After entering Bingzhou, he rushed all the way to Huguan, and he didn't know much about Huguan and senior officials.Moreover, Lu Yan has a higher official position than him, so it is the wisest choice to hand over the command to Lu Yan.

For Zhong Yao's question, Lu Yan was clearly prepared.

"The news came from Dizi, who was supposed to lie in the city of Huguan, that Gao Gan had already left Huguan alone to go to the Xiongnu in order to seek reinforcements."

"Ah? Gao Gan went to find reinforcements himself?" Zhong Yao was stunned when he heard the words. How could the general leave the army and run to find reinforcements by himself?

"Then Gao Gan was afraid of us and ran away alone?" Ma Chao whispered.

Ma Teng heard that Ma Chao was being naughty again, and was about to scold him angrily, but Lu Yan suddenly praised: "Meng Qi is right, that high-ranking official really ran away in all likelihood!"

Ma Chao just spoke casually, but he didn't want to guess the truth just in time.

Such an outrageous situation, many people can't believe it.

Lu Yan spread his hands and said with a smile: "Believe it or not, this is the truth. The Huns have been broken by you, and they must not dare to help Gao Gan anymore. Gao Gan is doomed to seek help in vain and return. He is afraid There is a high possibility that our troops will escape directly from Bingzhou."

Zhong Yao looked at Lu Yan and said excitedly, "If that's the case, Huguankou will be breached sooner or later, and Bingzhou will also be in our pocket!!"

This is simply a waste of credit, can you not be excited!
But for Ma Chao, Xu Huang and other generals, they came here from thousands of miles away, sharpening their knives and preparing for a big battle, but the enemy leader left his subordinates and ran away.
Ma Chao shook his head, thinking, "It's extremely boring."

Although the enemy was timid before the battle, Lu Yan still warned: "Although the high officials have escaped, there are still nearly [-] troops in Huguankou and Huguan County. So everyone, don't take it lightly!"

Zhong Yao put aside the contempt that should not have been in his heart, and said, "So, please Lu Hussars to arrange combat missions!"

Lu Yan nodded and said, "Let's take a good rest today, and attack the city directly at dawn."

Speaking of this, Lu Yan looked at Lu Lingqi and said, "Once the Huguan pass is broken, you will lead the wolf cavalry battalion north to clean up the garrison around Huguan County, and then cooperate with the main force of our army to block Huguan County!"

"Here!" Lu Lingqi clasped her fists to accept the order, and then stood beside Lu Yan, looking coldly at the group of people below.

Lu Yan looked at Zhang Xiu and Ma Chao again and said, "General Zhang, General Ma, you can detour to the Shangdang from the north and force the enemy in Huguankou and Huguan County from the enemy's rear to divide their troops, so as to help the main force of our army break through Huguankou as soon as possible. .Once the Huguan pass is broken, you and the wolf cavalry battalion will sweep the surrounding area and cut off the connection between Huguan city and the surrounding area!"

Zhang Xiu and Ma Chao lined up, clasped their fists in response and said, "I will obey orders!"

Lu Yan looked at Xu Huang again, and asked, "Gongming, how many artisans did you bring with you this time?"

Xu Huang came out and clasped his fists to Lu Yan and said, "Back to Lu Hushi, I expected that there must be many siege battles this time, so I brought all the craftsmen from General Cao Ren's army, a total of 78 people. !"

Xu Huang is mature and prudent, with careful thought. Lu Yan praised his "intimate" behavior: "It's great. With these craftsmen, we can quickly build trebuchets."

"Back to Lu Hussars. As soon as the army arrived, I ordered them to start building trebuchets. The leading craftsman told me that at least two hundred trebuchets can be built before tomorrow morning!"

"Haha! Very good!" Lu Yan stood up with a laugh, and said, "With Gongming here, I really save most of my heart!"

If someone helped me solve the worries, wouldn't I be able to fish in a legitimate way?Lu Yan was in a good mood, and the more he looked at Xu Huang, the more pleasing he was.

"Lieutenant Zhong, for the siege battle tomorrow, the soldiers under your command and mine will all be under the command of General Xu Gongming, do you have any objections?"

It seems that Lu Yan is going to praise Xu Huang.

Zhong Yao and Xu Huang also had a lot of intersections in the past, and they were both heroes who followed the emperor from Chang'an to Luoyang. He naturally knew Xu Huang very well.

Zhong Yao looked at his "old friend" Xu Huang, and replied with a smile: "Gongming has been evaluated by the prime minister, 'My Zhou Yafu', and he is a famous general. The army is under the command of Gongming. I am very relieved!"

Xiliang generals such as Ma Teng, Ma Chao and Pound looked at Xu Huang in surprise. Such a little-known general had such a high evaluation.

Even Han Sui, Jiuqu Huanghe, couldn't help sighing in his heart: "Cao Cao has so many talented people under his command!"
