Chapter 183: Conspiracy
All
The 50,000 troops in Gongsun Yan's hand arrived at Cao Cao's tent on time. At this moment, Cao Cao was standing in the camp, his hands drooping on his lower abdomen, with a smile on his face. Cao Anmin behind him! Cao Wenzhao! Cao Ang and the other two were commanding their troops, making them arrogant and showing the strongest side of their army.
For Cao Cao, Tian Dan had been crushed by him in this battle, beheading 40,000 people. A few days ago, Cao Cao heard that Han Yi was going to be a great title. With his two contributions, this time he could not escape.
"Father! This old man Gongsun has no ability either! I looked at it once and it was probably here to grab the credit!" Cao Wenzhao, who was standing behind Cao Cao, looked a little serious with his sword in his arms, and he looked sneered at Gongsun Yan.
"Random!" Cao Cao looked slightly angry with Cao Wenzhao's arrogant look, which made Cao Cao very worried. He just happened to use this matter today to hit Cao Wenzhao.
When Cao Wenzhao heard Cao Cao scolding, he immediately said: The old general has been fighting on the battlefield for decades, and he has fought south and north. How could you evaluate your yellow-mouthed breasts? I stand up for me honestly. If you dare to talk too much, I will beat you thirty military sticks!"
"Yes! Father!" Cao Wenzhao obviously touched his father more, and immediately stood behind Cao Cao silently, with a hint of embarrassment.
Cao Cao then calmed down and said nothing. Gongsun Yan's record was not worse than his. In the Battle of Zheng State, this veteran general played a decisive role. Without him, whether Han Yi could rise would be a question. What's more, this time he destroyed 250,000 troops in Wei State and captured the enemy general Pang Juan with his 150,000 troops. Cao Cao didn't know how brilliant this record was.
Soon, Gongsun Yan's army arrived, the team was in order, and the military generals behind him were also well-dressed. Because Xue Rengui was promoted by Han Yi, and there were only a few military generals in Gongsun Yan's hands, Han Chen! Guo Ziyi! Even the original Pang Wanchun was taken away by Han Yi, and now Gongsun Yan can only promote his young generals.
When Cao Cao saw Gongsun Yan coming, he immediately said happily: "General Gongsun Yan, I haven't seen him for many years, and he is still as charming as ever!"
When Gongsun Yan saw Cao Cao greeting him in person, he felt that his old face was ashamed. He thought that Cao Cao was just a minor official back then, but now he has become a general. It can be said that he should not bully the young man poor. Gongsun Yan bowed and said, "General Cao! I haven't seen him for many years, and he is like a family of golden bells and silver armor, which is all the spring breeze!"
"I dare not! I dare not! Cao Ren has caused trouble to the general. I hope the general will be more forgiving!" Cao Cao and Gongsun Yan were foolish, but they did not forget to care about his younger brother. This time, his younger brother was also famous. With the 20,000 troops in his hands, he resisted Pang Juan for more than three months. Such achievements are not something that anyone can do.
"General Cao Ren made great contributions this time and was a hero of this war. It is just around the corner to be named a marquis and a general. The general does not need to be humble. I also relied on General Cao Ren's achievements in this battle!" Gongsun Yan said with a smile.
Cao Cao also began to get along with Gongsun Yan, while Han Chen rode a war horse to observe Cao Cao and his son. Cao Wenzhao was young and energetic, and had a sense of being arrogant. However, with his tendons and flesh, it can be seen that his martial arts are not low. Cao Ang gave people the feeling of being mature and polite while walking. Cao Cao gave Han Yi the feeling that he could not see through for a while, giving people a secret and dim feeling.
When Cao Cao and Gongsun Yan were chatting, they were also looking at the soldiers and generals behind Gongsun Yan from time to time, and finally locked their eyes on Han Chen. It happened that Han Chen's eyes were also annotating Cao Cao. The two eyes were fixed together and looked at each other. Han Chen bowed to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao also nodded symbolically.
In Cao Cao's eyes, Han Chen was just an unknown soldier, and he, a famous general, nodded to him, which was already a recognition of him.
The sky is getting darker
After three rounds of wine! After five flavors of food, Cao Cao glanced at Gongsun Yan and said for a while: "General Gongsun, should we march together this time or divide our troops!"
Gongsun Yan wiped his hands with a cloth, paused for a while, and looked at Cao Cao and said, "What do you mean by General Cao!"
"Hahaha! I naturally wanted to march with General Gongsun. General Han Qinhu's 200,000 troops have already set out from Jiagu. The combined strength of your and our army is not as strong as General Han Qinhu. Now that we are in charge of warmth, we can grab a piece of fat from General Han Qinhu!"
"Hahahaha! It seems that General Cao Cao also wants to be careful when he is fighting Zhongshan!" Gongsun Yan stroked his beard and looked at Cao Cao, as if he was considering his own battle results.
"Hahahahahahahahaha, since General Gongsun has said it, I will naturally not hide it anymore. In this war, destroying Qi is definitely a piece of fat. If we don't eat it, we will only fatten General Han!" Cao Cao stroked his beard. Although they were officials in the same dynasty, competition between each other is certainly indispensable. After all, they have to consider their descendants.
Gongsun Yan stroked his beard and said for a while: "I agree with General Cao's method, but the king only gives us the last three months. If we cannot take over Qi in these three months, the king will not be able to launch a large-scale war within three years. So this time we work together to conquer Qi first!"
"Okay! Since General Gongsun has said this, let's discuss the situation of the battle next!" Cao Cao waved his hand and the two winked soldiers below quickly raised the map and pushed him in front of Gongsun Yan and Cao Cao.
Cao Cao stroked his beard and immediately said, "If our army advances, we must take down Laiwu. After Tian Dan is defeated, he will flee into this city. Wherever the city is high and thick, the people are more than 200,000 people, and the people are strong. You can get 50,000 elite soldiers by recruiting at will. It can completely fill the source of Tian Dan's defeated troops. Moreover, the weather is getting colder and colder, which is very beneficial to Tian Dan. If we attack vigorously, we will not suffer heavy losses, and we will also have to take off a layer of skin!"
"Yes!" Gongsun Yan nodded and said for a while: "General Cao has done enough. Is there only this road here that can be taken? We can take a detour!"
"Of course! But let's not talk about the journey it took. Just the food and grass were pulled too long, and it was easy to be harassed by Tian Dan!" Cao Cao said with a worried expression.
