I am the son of Cao thief, start the awakening of the tyrant system

"Gao Gan is the lord's nephew, don't be rude, just wait for the lord to deal with him."

Looking at a line of small characters on the bamboo slips, Zhang He took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said lightly,
"Bingzhou Mu, this matter is for the master to deal with, we should first consider how to deal with Cao Jun.

The 3000 troops under your command will be handed over to me for the time being. "

Hearing this, Gao Gan heaved a sigh of relief, and quickly smiled,

"Everything is under the orders of General Zhonglang."

"That's very good, you go down for now."

Zhang He waved his hand a little impatiently.

Looking at the figures of Gao Gan, Gao Rou, Qu Bei and others going away, Zhang He sighed angrily,
"If I were the lord, I would definitely chop off their heads!"

The examiner smiled faintly, picked up the bamboo slip and wrote another line,

"The top priority is to resist Cao Mao."

Zhang He nodded slightly,

"What the military division said is good."

From Ji County to Yecheng, it is only more than two hundred miles, and there are only two counties in the middle, Chaoge and Dangyin.

Its loss means that Zhang Xi's side has no defense depth and is strategically passive.

Therefore, Zhang Xi must stick to Chaoge and cannot let Cao Jun advance northward.

"Pass our military order, the army will enter Chaoge County and strengthen the city's defenses!"

Zhang He ordered in a deep voice.

"Here!"

All the soldiers took orders in unison.

The mighty army turned around and roared towards Chaoge.

……

The next day.

After Cao Mao collected the defeated and surrendered troops of the high-level cadres, only a few troops were left to defend Ji County, and he continued to march towards Ye City with his army.

Outside Chaoge City.

Cao Mao looked up and saw a banner embroidered with "Ning Guozhong Lang Jiang" on the city wall, dancing with the wind.

"General Ningguo? Where is this sacred?"

Zhou Cang on the side said curiously.

"This man's name is Zhang He. He was loyal to Han Fu in the early years and made great contributions in quelling the Yellow Turban Rebellion. Afterwards, he followed Yuan Shao and made great contributions in defeating Gongsun Zan. He was promoted to be the general of Ningguo Zhonglang."

Cao Mao looked up the city gate, where a burly figure stood on the top of the city, facing his eyes.

"So, he must be very powerful?"

Zhou Cang asked.

"That's natural. This person is no small matter, absolutely not to be underestimated."

Although Zhang Yun's reputation in the history of the Three Kingdoms is not as prominent as that of Lu Bu, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun, he is still a person of amazing talent!

He uses soldiers to change skillfully, is good at arranging camps, assessing the situation, and making good use of terrain.

Even Zhuge Kongming, who used soldiers like a god, had a deep fear of Zhang He.

In order to protect Yecheng, his hometown, from surprise attack, Yuan Shao specially sent Zhang Yun here, which shows his trust in Zhang Yun.

It's just that I don't know if the Battle of Guandu will still be carried out according to history after Zhang He is gone.

Cao Mao smiled faintly, stretched out his hand to Zhang He who was upstairs in the city gate, and made a gesture of wiping his neck.

His actions naturally fell into the eyes of Yuan Jun's generals on the city wall.

"This son is so arrogant, general, give me 2000 troops, and I will go out of the city and take his head to present to the general!"

"General, I only want 1000 troops!"

Those who spoke were Jiao Touch and Zhang Nan, two generals in the army.

They were originally Yuan Xi's subordinates.

After Yuan Xi's death, he was transferred to Zhang He by Yuan Shao.

Seeing that the person who killed the lord, Cao Mao, was outside the city, he was naturally furious and volunteered to fight Cao Mao.

But in the face of Cao Mao's provocation, Zhang He turned his head indifferently, staring at everyone present with his cold eyes, and shouted sharply,
"My lord's military order is to guard the city and prevent Cao Mao from attacking Yecheng."

"From today onwards, whoever dares to go out of the city to fight, will be dealt with by military law!"

When he said this, Jiao Touch and Zhang Nan could only keep their mouths shut.

Gao Gan, Gao Rou, and Qu Bei at the side were relieved.

They knew Cao Mao's strength best, and they were afraid that Zhang Yun would get confused and go out of the city to fight.

……

Seeing that there was no movement in the city, Cao Mao ordered the army to set up camp outside the city.

There is a high slope outside the city, and his camp of the Chinese army is located on the top of the slope, which happens to be able to capture the whole Chaoge in his eyes.

Looking at Chaoge not far away, Cao Mao turned around and looked at the people present,

"Do you have any good ideas for conquering Chaoge?"

Pang Tong thought for a moment, but he spoke first.

"Judging from Zhang Yun's various arrangements, he seems to have made up his mind and can't defend. From this point of view, we can only attack by force."

"But if it is a strong attack, not to mention the heavy casualties, I am afraid that it will not be able to win."

Xu Shu on the side shook his head in objection.

There are sayings in the art of war, so the way to use soldiers is to surround them with ten and attack them with five.

According to the information passed by the factory guards, Zhang Yun's troops in the city had at least 5 people.

And the men and horses in their hands, even with the surrendered soldiers captured earlier, were only 4.

Although Chaoge is only a small city, it is still very difficult with only this little force.

Not to mention the chief general in charge of defending the city, Zhang He, who even Zhuge Liang had a headache for.

Zhou Cang scratched his forehead, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said hastily,
"My lord's method of threatening to massacre the city last time, can you use it again?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone couldn't help laughing, which made Zhou Cang a little puzzled.

"What, am I right?"

Cao Mao smiled lightly and waved his hands,

"Gao Gan, Gao Rou and the others were overwhelmed by our army, so they were able to scare them out of the city through letters."

"But Zhang Yun's talent is slightly superior, and the leader is Yuan Jun's elite, this method will not work."

Zhou Cang was immediately dejected, and muttered,

"Could it be that the only way to attack is by force?"

Jia Xu looked up at Chaoge, frowned slightly, and said softly,
"Yuan Jun must have brought enough food and grass when he came here this time, and there is a river flowing around the city outside the city."

"It may not be easy to pass the strategy of cutting off food and water."

For a moment, everyone was a little worried.

Cao Mao's sword eyebrows were slightly frowned, and his deep eyes were staring at Chaoge City.

When his eyes fell on the sparkling river outside the city, his heart moved, but he had an idea.

"Send me an order to instruct the supply battalion to obtain materials on site and prepare to build ships."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone present was at a loss.

Use local materials to build ships?
"My lord, are we going to enter the Yellow River by boat, go down the river, and march on Yuan Shao?"

Pang Tong asked puzzledly.

"No, the purpose of shipbuilding is to conquer Chaoge."

Cao Mao smiled slightly and pointed to Chaoge County.

But these words made everyone even more strange.

No one can think of any connection between building ships and conquering Chaoge.

Only Jia Xu on the side twirled his beard. After thinking hard for a while, his mind suddenly became clear, and he lost his voice,
"Could it be that the lord wants to use water attack?!"

Cao Mao looked at it in surprise and laughed loudly,
"Wen He is really smart, that's right, I'm planning to accumulate river water to attack Zhang He!"
