Three Kingdoms: Do you want me to get out of here? Liu Bei, you wait

Chapter 194: vs , the advantage is mine! Recruiting the [Eighteen Riders of Yanyun]! [Two-in-one]

Cao Cao gritted his teeth, his face full of determination.

His face was full of determination.

Hearing him say this, Xun Yu and others around him were all shocked.

When he came back to his senses, he stepped forward and started to persuade them.

"My lord, please don't be impulsive. How can we take national affairs lightly? If we really lose, even if Military Advisor Su brings his head to us, it will be of no use."

Seeing the officials of the Yingchuan noble family acting like this, Xu Chu couldn't hold back and started to complain in a low voice.

"Are you the Prime Minister's men, or are you the men of Xiliang Ma Chao? Why do you keep saying such depressing things?"

"It's not a discouraging statement, it's the truth..."

Xun Yu opened his mouth and wanted to explain.

But before he could finish his words, Cao Cao interrupted him with a wave of his hand.

"Okay, just stop talking, this matter is settled.

However, I cannot give you all the 3 soldiers and horses in Mr. Su's city. I have to leave 1 men to guard Xuchang and the emperor.

With only 2 soldiers, do you really have the confidence to stop Ma Chao's 10 elite troops?"

"It's okay, my lord, don't worry. What you need to consider now is the matter of Sanjiangkou. You must not let Dongwu take Sanjiangkou back."

Su Chen reminded.

After hearing this, Cao Cao also agreed with it and nodded.

The next moment, he started discussing with Xun Yu and others how to fight the enemy at Sanjiangkou.

As for the matter of Xiliang Ma Chao, since he has said that he will hand it over to Su Chen, then it is a matter of full delegation of power and trust.

He directly gave him 2 elite soldiers and several generals including Xu Chu to command.

There is absolutely no intention to ask any more questions.

With such active preparations, it took less than three days for all the troops to be assembled.

Converged at the east and west gates.

Cao Cao wanted to go out from the east gate and head to Jingzhou to supervise the battle in the direction of Sanjiangkou.

As for Su Chen and others, they were going to rush from the west gate to stop Ma Chao of Xiliang.

"2 against 10, this task is indeed arduous. Mr. Su, I will completely hand over Xuchang to you."

"If it is really impossible to do anything, sir, you must save your life first and keep yourself useful."

Before leaving, I thought about this mission.

In fact, Cao Cao was also quite worried, so he grabbed Su Chen's hand and gave him instructions again.

This time, he not only reminded Su Chen of the task, but also reminded him to take care of his health.

Seeing him like this, Su Chen felt a little touched.

He patted his chest and gave another assurance to reassure Cao Cao.

Follow whatever comes to mind.

He also presented another great gift, the feather fan and silk scarf he had worn in the Battle of Red Cliffs, along with a brocade bag, and handed them to Cao Cao.

In the previous series of battles, Cao Cao had received countless treasure bags from Su Chen.

Seeing that he gave me the secret gift again this time, I was naturally not surprised.

But when he turned around and looked at the feather fan and scarf handed to him by Su Chen, there was a bit of confusion on his face.

"Mr. Su, what does this mean?"

"You are here to help me defeat the Eastern Wu, so what does this have to do with defeating the Eastern Wu?"

Cao Cao's face was full of confusion.

Look at his expression.

Su Chen chuckled and didn't try to sell his relationship with him this time.

Instead, he leaned close to Cao Cao's ear and started to give him instructions.

"My lord, haven't you ever heard the saying that attacking a city is inferior to attacking its heart?

A few pieces of clothing alone won’t work wonders, but if they’re used together, the effect will be much more powerful than you think.

At that time, the lord only needs to do this... this..."

Look at him like this.

Chen Qun and others who were accompanying them naturally pricked up their ears.

I wanted to hear what insights this talented scholar had.

But I didn't hear a word.

Seeing Cao Cao, who was puzzled just now, his brows instantly relaxed.

When he looked up again, he was even more excited and praised again and again.

"Great! Military Advisor!"

"This move of the military advisor is really brilliant. After this battle, I guarantee that Zhou Lang will never forget it!"

The more Cao Cao spoke, the happier he became.

"My lord, Mr. Su, what kind of proposal is this that can make my lord so excited?"

Look at him like this.

Chen Qun and his companions couldn't help but become curious.

Ask there.

But today, when he heard everyone's questions, Cao Cao did not give a direct answer.

Instead, he kept the secret.

He shook his head and said a few words that the secret cannot be revealed.

Then he led everyone to say goodbye to Su Chen.

Exit from the east gate.

At this moment, Cao Cao and his entourage were traveling lightly, with the aim of rushing to Sanjiangkou as quickly as possible.

This is different from their side who are equipped lightly.

Simon.

The large group of troops assembled by Xu Chu and Gao Shun were all wearing heavy armor and had serious expressions.

Because everyone knows it.

What they are going to face next is definitely a tough battle.

Not to mention the ordinary soldiers below.

Even Xu Chu, who had been through hundreds of battles, looked extremely solemn at this moment.

After the army set out.

Feeling uneasy, he moved closer to Su Chen and asked him carefully.

I want to know if he has confidence this time.

Where does the confidence come from for 10 people to fight against soldiers?

Want to see what Su Chen’s trump card is?
Xu Chu's eyes were full of anticipation.

Seeing him like this, Su Chen smiled and asked back, "Are you so confident that I have a trump card?"

"Of course. Others may not understand Mr. Su, but how could I not know him?
Sir, you never fight a battle without confidence. Now that you have even issued a military order, you must have a trump card that no one else can match.

But I have racked my brains this time, but I still can’t figure out what this trump card should be?
Could it be those mechanical birds again?"

Mr. Xu Chu nodded, then scratched his head, feeling somewhat puzzled again.

"That thing might be effective when escaping, but this time we are facing the enemy head-on. Even if we have more mechanical birds, it will be useless."

Su Chen explained that after he said this, he wanted to add something else.

Suddenly, his ears moved slightly, and he heard the sound of horse hooves coming from the mountain not far away.

As the army was marching, they suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves. Naturally, the entire army was on alert, thinking that the enemy was attacking.

Not to mention them, even Xu Chu's expression became a little more serious.

He put his hand on the copper hammer at his waist.

Only Su Chen had a smile on his face.

He stretched out his hand again to signal Xu Chu and others not to be nervous.

Then he pointed to the hill ahead and said with a smile.

"Zhongkang, weren't you just curious about what my trump card is? This time, our trump card is on the way here."

"Oh?"

"Sir, do you mean that the people coming here now are our own people?" "Could it be the scouts you sent out before? That shouldn't be the case. No matter how powerful the scout is, he can't be said to be a trump card."

After hearing this, Xu Chu was shocked and surprised.

However, Su Chen in front of him no longer had the heart to explain to him.

He clamped his legs together, sat on the Red Hare, and galloped towards the top of the mountain.

Look at Su Chen like this.

Xu Chu had no choice but to follow, and hid all the doubts in his heart back in his stomach.

Fortunately, this doubt did not remain hidden for long.

Wait until you reach the top of the mountain.

The doubts that had just lingered in my mind immediately disappeared.

As far as the eye can see.

At this moment, an army consisting of hundreds of people rushed from the front.

Each of the riders was wearing winter clothes, a long black windbreaker, a black scarf on his head, and a mask on his face, leaving only his eyes exposed.

They wore Hu people's riding boots with daggers hidden in the boots, wore crescent-shaped scimitars on their waists, carried large bows on their backs, and each of them was equipped with 18 arrows.

Although there were hundreds of people, they marched in unison, as if they were one person.

At this moment, they rushed over. Although no one spoke or showed off their martial arts, they brought an indescribable sense of oppression.

There are obviously only a hundred people.

In terms of momentum, he actually overwhelmed the 2 soldiers behind Xu Chu.

When they got closer, they all dismounted from their horses.

He half-knelt and saluted towards where Su Chen was.

"Eighteen Riders of Yanyun, greetings to Mr. Su!"

Yes, the person who came here was none other than the reward [Eighteen Riders of Yanyun] that Su Chen had just drawn not long ago!
[The Eighteen Riders of Yanyun] were said to have 18 men, but in fact the entire army, added up to nearly a hundred people.

Because he was very good at riding and shooting, and he was elusive on the grassland,
Therefore, the subsequent exaggerations became more and more outrageous, and it was finally passed down as the 18th cavalry.

At this moment, all the cavalrymen knelt down together, and the sound was like thunder, echoing over the entire hill.

Hearing this voice, Su Chen naturally felt heroic.

After waving his hand to incorporate the Eighteen Banners of Yanyun into his command, he chose to lead the troops on the journey again.

This time, even Gao Shun, who was usually taciturn, couldn't help but ride his horse to his side.

He took the initiative to ask Su Chen about the origin of the Eighteen Banners of Yanyun.

"My lord, is this the killer weapon you mentioned?"

Su Chen asked back, "What do you think, Gao Shun, do you think they are worthy of the three words 'killer mace'?"

Gao Shun sighed.

"They obey orders, stand still like a mountain, and are as fierce as a tiger. Just by looking at their behavior, you can tell that they are a first-rate army.

I used to think that the trap camp I trained was invincible, but today I finally understand what it means that there are always people better than you.

Such a powerful army. Why didn't you introduce them to me earlier? I could learn more from their experience."

But at the end of the day, looking at Su Chen again, there was a hint of resentment on his face.

"Before? I haven't extracted this reward from the diamond treasure chest yet. How can I introduce it to you?"
Su Chen also found it funny to hear him complain.

But I can't say this to the other person directly.

After thinking about it, I could only laugh and evade the question.

"It's okay, it's okay if we didn't know each other before. Now there are plenty of opportunities to get to know each other, right?"

"But these guys are not as simple as you think. They are all cold and don't like to talk. If you go over and talk to them and they make you mad, don't take it personally."

Of course, at the end, he added another sentence.

"You will finally understand."

Gao Shun nodded, taking into account everything Su Chen said, his expression serious.

And Xu Chu was briefly shocked.

His brows did not relax, but instead he still looked worried.

In his opinion, the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun were indeed powerful, but their number was still too small.

After all, what they are going to face next are 10 elite soldiers from Ma Chao in Xiliang.

Even if these 18 Yanyun riders are each worth a hundred.

Adding the 2 men under his command, the total number can only be 3. In terms of number, it is still not on the same level as Ma Chao of Xiliang.

This battle is still extremely dangerous.

"Zhongkang, you still don't understand. When marching and fighting, it is superficial to just look at the number of people. The power that these 18 riders of Yanyun can exert is far greater than you think."

Seeing his look, Su Chen couldn't help but shake his head again.

I was just about to learn more about how powerful the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun are, which are similar to the top mobile forces in ancient times.

Before he could open his mouth, he saw Luo Yi, the leader of the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun, riding his horse up to him.

He took the initiative to hand over a feng shui map.

Su Chen opened it, scanned the content above, and was instantly overjoyed.

Because what is engraved on this map this time is nothing else.

It was exactly the movement of Ma Chao's group from Xiliang.

This time, Su Chen was also shocked.

What is a pleasant surprise? This is a real pleasant surprise.

In fact, after receiving the system reward.

Su Chen let them gallop across the grassland, but he didn't hold much hope at first.

I just don't want this group of soldiers to be noticed by people with ulterior motives in Xuchang.

After all, such a powerful army appeared out of nowhere, and its origins are still unclear.

Su Chen also had a headache, so this time he just wanted to save trouble.

No one expected that they would be left alone like this, but the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun actually gave him a big surprise.

What is the most important thing in war? Information and intelligence.

This is especially true in ancient warfare.

If you want to defeat the strong with the weak, or the many with the few, the most important thing is to know where the opponent's weaknesses are.

What is needed is an understanding of the opponent's overall situation.

This was the information he obtained based on his subsequent plan to continue using scouts to test the waters.

Unexpectedly, the required information had already been brought back by the 18 Riders of Yanyun just as the march began.

So Su Chen is naturally very happy at the moment.

"How about this, Zhongkang? Do you know how important the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun are?"

Thinking of this, Su Chen turned around and asked Xu Chu again, with a hint of pride between his brows.

He was just feeling proud.

After hearing his question, Xu Chu on the opposite side was completely confused. He muttered to himself with an incredible look on his face.

"How...how on earth was this done?"

"In such a short time, from the Hejian Corridor to here, they actually figured out the movements of Ma Chao and his group clearly, but they were not discovered by the other party the whole time. Are these guys cavalry or ghosts?"

When he thought of this, he looked at Luo Yi and his gang who were wearing iron masks and had cold eyes.

I also felt a chill in my heart.

Seeing his reaction, Su Chen stepped forward, patted his shoulder, and immediately comforted him.

"Don't be nervous, they are not ghosts, but our comrades."

"This is the sharp sword we will use to stab Ma Chao and his group from Xiliang!"

This is what I said.

Su Chen was also excited.

He turned around and immediately issued the core combat objectives in the direction of the Eighteen Banners of Yanyun.

In fact, the goal can be summed up in just 12 words.

That is, when the enemy advances, I retreat; when the enemy pursues, I harass; when the enemy is tired, I attack!

No matter what, there is only one purpose.

That is to make Ma Chao and his entourage from Xiliang exhausted and tired before they actually fight against them!
