Becoming stronger from cutting Hu and Cao Cao

government office.

"Report" Cao Jun scouted his horse and galloped into the mansion, and knelt down in front of Cao Cao on one knee: "King Wei, the Xiliang coalition forces have changed, and all the grassland ministries have begun to withdraw their troops one after another."

Hearing this military situation, Cao Cao's spirit couldn't help being shaken.The grassland troops withdrew, and they came to help Ma Chao.Now that the grassland coalition forces are withdrawing, there is only one possibility. Ma Chao is dead. Once Ma Chao dies, the Ma family in Xiliang will have no descendants.

As the saying goes, when people leave the tea to cool down, the trees fall and the monkeys scatter, and the Ma family in Xiliang has no heirs, then these grassland tribes who have made good friends with the Ma family naturally have no need to stay.

Suddenly, Cao Cao seemed to remember something, and asked, "Where are Han Sui and Beigong Boyu's army?"

"Report to the king of Wei, only the troops from the grassland have returned to the army, Han Sui and Beigong Boyu's soldiers and horses have not changed in any way!" Tan Ma replied truthfully.

"All the tribes in the grassland have returned to the army, but Han Sui and Beigong Boyu have not left. Why?"

"Yes, it must be so."

"Han Sui and Beigong Boyu, this is to add two to one to make five, and divide up the foundation of the Ma family in Xiliang!" Cao Cao said, slapping his thigh.

This person is afraid of thinking blindly, especially when the information is insufficient.At this time, Cao Cao had completely believed that Ma Chao was dead.

"Send scouts to keep an eye on the evacuated grassland ministries. In addition, send people to keep an eye on the Xiliang camp. If there is any change, notify me as soon as possible."

"In addition, order the army to be ready to send troops at all times, and there must be no negligence!" Cao Cao instructed his generals.

As the saying goes, one step is wrong, every step is wrong.Since Xu Chu gave Cao Cao wrong information, Cao Cao has gone further and further down the wrong path.

Chapter 498 A series of tricks

Tongguan.

government office.

Cao Cao paced back and forth in the hall, he was very entangled in whether to send troops to attack the Xiliang Camp.

You know, even though all the tribes in the grassland who came to help have withdrawn their troops.However, Ma Chao, Han Sui, and Beigong Boyu from outside the city together still have at least [-].

On the other hand, Cao's army in Tongguan, apart from the wounded, only had more than [-] soldiers who could go to the battlefield.

With 10 Cao troops, it is a very risky thing to attack the Xiliang camp with a full [-] people.

However, judging from the current situation, it is a rare opportunity.

On the battlefield, fighter planes are fleeting.

At this time, the sky was gradually getting dark.

"report"

"Report to King Wei, all the tribes in the grassland have been evacuated hundreds of miles away from Tongguan, and it's getting dark, so our scouts dare not follow." The scouts sent by Cao Cao to watch the tribes in the grassland reported back.

You know, this army is marching, and you can follow it from a distance during the day, observing the traces of the army marching.But this night, there is no way to follow.Those who are blind and blind can't see anything. If you light a torch, wouldn't you expose yourself.

"All the ministries in the grassland have been evacuated for a hundred miles. It seems that they have really left." Cao Cao muttered to himself, and at this moment, his determination to attack the Xiliang camp at night became stronger.

You know, this is a battle of disparity in strength.Originally, it was very difficult for Cao Jun to defend Tongguan alone, but if he defeated the Xiliang Army in this chapter, then Cao Cao would be famous all over the world.

Moreover, once the Xiliang army is defeated, they will be able to gather not a few soldiers.If this happens, the battle situation in Tongguan can be used to feed back the battle situation in Yanjin.At all times, Yuan Benchu ​​will be defeated.

However, he was Cao Cao after all, and under such circumstances, he still suppressed the urge to use troops in his heart.

"Don't be reckless, absolutely don't be reckless."

"Now, you can't make a wrong step. If you make a wrong step, you will make a wrong step." Cao Cao murmured to himself.

"Continue to send more people and keep an eye on the Xiliang camp. If there is any change in the Xiliang camp, report it to me as soon as possible." Cao Cao ordered.

Cao Cao is too stable and suspicious by nature, so he is not fully sure, and he will never make a rash move.

Time is passing, and the time has passed.

Xiliang Camp.

"Military Master, is your strategy going to work? Why hasn't Cao Cao come to attack the camp!" Beigong Boyu was a little anxious.

Their soldiers had already ambushed, and it was already midnight, but Cao Cao just didn't come.If you wait, it will be the middle of the night.

"Military division, could it be our strategy that has been seen through by Cao Mengde?" Pang De stroked his long beard and asked.

Cheng Gongying thought for a moment, and said very firmly: "No, there is no flaw in the whole strategy. It stands to reason that Cao Mengde will never see through our strategy."

"If Cao Mengde had brought along his military advisor Guo Fengxiao this time, I would naturally not fight against others, but Cao Mengde came alone, so I guess he won't be able to see through my strategy."

"Military division, don't care if he sees through or not, but if Cao's army doesn't come to attack the camp, wouldn't our efforts be in vain?" Beigong Boyu continued.

Cheng Gongying was deep in thought, as if deducing the whole strategy in his mind.After a long time, Cheng Gongying said: "It seems that this Cao Mengde is more suspicious than I imagined. He was suspicious, so he didn't send troops for a long time!"

"Cao Mengde should be waiting for the civil strife in our Xiliang army. If my lord dies, according to common sense, the two will definitely annex our army!"

"General Han Sui, General Beigong, please send some soldiers and horses around the camp and make the sound of fighting." Cheng Gongying ordered.

When Cheng Gongying said this, he could look at Han Sui and Beigong Boyu out of the corner of his eye. His words were also a test, to see if their expressions were abnormal.

When Cheng Gongying said these words, Beigong Boyu's complexion changed, while Han Sui's complexion was unstable.

"Ha ha!"

"Mr. Gongying was joking. Shoucheng and I are sworn brothers. Meng Qi is my nephew. How could we annex the Ma family's troops?"

"However, since the military adviser is using tricks, I'll try it later!" Han Sui laughed loudly.

After Han Sui and Beigong Boyu left, Cheng Gongying said to Pound: "General Pang De, you go and order [-] elite soldiers and wait for orders."

After instructing Pound, Cheng Gongying told Ma Dai again: "General Ma Dai, go and lead someone to quickly find some wood and nail a coffin out."

According to Cheng Gongying's order, Han Sui and Beigong Boyu sent troops to pretend to fight inside and outside the Xiliang camp.In the Xiliang camp, piles of fires were ignited from time to time, as if they were burning the tents.

At this time, Cao Cao's scouts were everywhere outside the Xiliang camp, and these scouts could clearly see this scene.

"Fight up, fight up!"

"Sure enough, as the king of Wei expected, the Xiliang camp is in chaos." Cao Jun's scout leader murmured to himself.

"Quickly, quickly inform King Wei of the situation here." Cao Jun's scout commander immediately ordered.

At this time, in the Xiliang camp, Pound and Ma Dai were already ready.

"My lord, I have to ask you to feel wronged and stay in this coffin for a while." Cheng Gongying said to Ma Chao.

"No, it's unlucky for this living person to enter the coffin." Ma Dai hurriedly stopped him.

If he had known that the coffin had been opened and his eldest brother was going to go in, Ma Dai would have been unable to do it anyway.

"It's not bad luck, it's not bad luck, we're going to hide it from Cao Ah."

"If I can take Cao Ahman's life, it would be worthwhile for me, Ma Meng, to sleep forever in this coffin." Ma Chao said, and ordered someone to help him into the coffin.

Ma Chao got into the coffin by himself, and Ma Dai didn't dare to say anything more.

At this time, Cheng Gongying ordered: "Two generals, let's go. After leaving the camp, let's pretend to be in a hurry and go straight to Wuwei."

After receiving Cheng Gongying's order, Pang De led the way, and Ma Dai followed behind with [-] soldiers who looked like routs, escorting the coffin out of the camp.

"General, look, where is it?" a sharp-eyed scout pointed to the north and said.

"The one with the long beard is Pang De, and the one behind should be Ma Dai."

"The coffin, inside the coffin must be Ma Chao's body."

"It seems that the Xiliang army is in civil strife, and the Ma family's soldiers and horses should have been annexed by Han Sui and Beigong Boyu. Pang De and Ma Dai are leading the remnant army to escort Ma Chao's body back to Wuwei." At this time, Cao Jun scouted Commander, he has already imagined the whole incident.

"General, what shall we do?" Cao Jun's scout asked behind him.

"How to do?"

"Do you still need to ask? Send someone to report to the King of Wei." Cao Jun's scout commander reported.

Chapter 499

In Tongguan, Cao Cao sat firmly in the main hall of the government office. Although he seemed as stable as an old dog, he was actually very entangled in his heart.

At this time, Cao Cao had already made a secret decision in his heart. If there was civil disorder in the Xiliang camp, he would send troops to attack the Xiliang camp.If the Xiliang camp is not chaotic, then he will still stick to Tongguan.

At this time, Cao Cao was waiting, and he was waiting for accurate news from the scouts he had sent.

"report"

"Report to the King of Wei that there has been a civil strife in the Xiliang Camp." Cao Jun's scouts rushed into the lobby of the government office and knelt down on one knee in front of Cao Cao to report.

"Ha ha!

"God help me Cao Mengde, God help me Cao Mengde!"

"Rise up troops and raid the Xiliang camp." Cao Cao ordered immediately.

At this time, the news had become the last straw that broke the camel's back, prompting Cao Cao to make a wrong decision.

However, at this moment, another scout rushed in.

"Report to the King of Wei, Ma Dai of Xiliang, and the second general Pang De led [-] remnant soldiers to escort a coffin and headed for Wuwei."

"Coffin, Wuwei." Cao Cao muttered to himself, and then said loudly: "I never thought that Ma Dai and Pang De, the second generals, are still loyal ministers and good generals. While waiting, they would not go home with Ma Chao's corpse."

"I, Cao Mengde, cherish talents the most. It's a pity that I can't get these two generals. It's a pity, a pity."

"King Wei, we can divide our troops to intercept Ma Dai, the second general Pang De!" At this time, a general beside him paid attention.

"No, we don't have enough troops. It is unwise to divide our troops at this time. Let's deal with Han Sui and Beigong Boyu first. The Ma family in Xiliang has no masters, so we can't make a big deal." Cao Cao rejected the general's suggestion.

At this time, Cao Cao only had [-] troops in his hands, and in the Xiliang camp, even if Ma Dai was thrown away, there would still be at least [-] to [-] people taken away by Pound.This is an enemy army twice as large as our own, and it may be difficult to take down the Xiliang camp if we divide our forces.

At this time, taking Xiliang Daying is the top priority, and Cao Cao can still weigh clearly which is more important.

With Cao Cao's order, all the soldiers and horses in Tongguan were dispatched. Cao Cao took Dian Wei and personally led the troops to the Xiliang Camp.

Cao Cao led the army to the Xiliang camp. At this time, the Xiliang camp was glowing with fire, and the noise of shouting and killing could be vaguely heard in the camp.

"Ha ha!"

"It's really hard to find anywhere, and it doesn't take much effort to get it. This is a big bargain for me, Cao Mengde." After Cao Cao said this, he waved the long sword in his hand and shouted: "Kill me in!" .”

With Cao Cao's order, Cao Jun's [-] troops rushed into the Xiliang Army's camp.However, after entering the Xiliang camp, Cao Cao realized something was wrong.

The Xiliang camp was full of thunder and rain, although the shouts of killing were loud, but not many corpses were found at all.

Moreover, the two sides of the fighters inside, after seeing Cao Jun rushing in, immediately stopped their troops and withdrew towards the rear.

Cao Cao is such a smart person. After seeing the situation in the Xiliang camp, he immediately understood that this was a trick.

It's just that now I understand that I've been tricked, but it's already too late.

This Xiliang camp is not a kiln, it allows you to come in if you want, and go out if you want.

"put!"

"Fire arrows!"

Seeing that Cao Jun had entered the ambush circle, the Xiliang army who had ambushed immediately shouted.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."

Countless arrows, like locusts, enveloped Cao Jun from all directions.

This burst of arrows was a covering shot. In an instant, Cao Jun's soldiers fell down wave after wave like stubble that had been harvested.

Cao Cao was dumbfounded, completely dumbfounded.

Originally, he wanted to catch the murderer by surprise, but he didn't know that he had already set up an ambush, just waiting for him to sneak in.

Just this round of arrow rain alone cost Cao Jun thousands of casualties.

Experts, there are experts in the Xiliang army to give advice.

"Withdraw, withdraw!"

Cao Cao roared and gave orders, his dark face was reddish.

Obviously, the scene at this time made Cao Cao a little bit overwhelmed.
