At this time, the cold wind blew, Cao Chong was wearing a brocade dress sent by Xin Xianying from Xu Du, and a white fox fur was put on his neck, which looked quite good.

Beside Cao Chong, Zhuge Liang, Zhou Buyi and others stood, and Zhou Dufu was riding a horse and patrolling around Cao Chong's carriage.

With Cao Chong as the center, there are soldiers on the inner and outer three layers. The large number of soldiers are like dense ants, completely covering Cao Chong's carriage.

This army has 30,000 to 40,000 people, of which 30,000 are the troops of the four counties in Jingnan, and the other one is nearly 10,000, which are the tiger and leopard cavalry led by Cao Xiu before. In addition, the remaining soldiers gathered by Cao Chong nearby, needless to say, the tiger and leopard cavalry is definitely an important combat power. Although these remaining soldiers are surrendered soldiers, they are all good players who follow Liu Bei to travel south and north, some of which are even Danyang soldiers!

Since ancient times, elite soldiers have emerged in Danyang!

"Danyang Mountain is dangerous, the people are full of energy, good at martial arts and warfare, noble strength, and a place of elite soldiers."

In other words, Danyang has poor mountains and rivers, and the people are strong, so it can produce elite soldiers.

The Danyang soldiers gathered by Cao Chong were the Danyang soldiers who were dispersed by Liu Bei. Speaking of which, this Danyang soldiers were given to Liu Bei by Tao Qian during the Xuzhou period.

With these Danyang soldiers, Liu Bei was able to travel around the country without restraint.

The heroic story of the Danyang soldiers has had several highlights in history:

During the Western Han Dynasty, the five thousand dead soldiers under the famous general Li Ling were the Danyang soldiers. When Li Ling attacked the Huns, he fought against the 80,000 elite cavalry of the Huns with 5,000 people. He fought to the death without reinforcements. In the end, only 400 people left were left to retreat. The commander Li Ling was forced to surrender, and the deputy commander Han Yannian died in battle. With the courage of the Huns' cavalry, the five thousand Danyang soldiers were able to make Shanyu scared and almost retreated. Finally, he found out that Li Ling had no support before he dared to attack. This shows how good the Danyang soldiers were to fight.

And these Danyang soldiers, Cao Chong, had a total of 500 people!

Five hundred people seem to be small, but there are quite a few.

Later, Shen Ying, the prefect of Danyang of Wu, led only more than 500 Danyang soldiers in battle against Jin, tied green scarves on their heads and held a giant hammer. He charged towards the positions of the Jin army several times, breaking through the strong defense of the Jin army.

The bravery of the Danyang soldiers is terrifying.

So in fact, in terms of the composition of Cao Chong's army, it is also an elite force in this era, and there are not many teams that can compete with Cao Chong's army.

Not every unit has tiger, leopard, tiger, tiger, and Danyang soldiers.

The sun was hanging high, but it felt warm. Cao Chong reached out to the stove in front to make his hands slightly better.

The living conditions of civilians in the Three Kingdoms are worrying, but the nobles like Cao Chong are not like this. The situation is good or even extravagant.

Take the car under Cao Chong as an example. The huge car under Cao Chong is hard to buy.

There is iron gold casting in this car. There is also a mezzanine between the iron gold, with some copper wire inside. Under the car, there is also a charcoal stove, making the bottom of the car as warm as spring.

This was a gift from the Changsha family to Cao Chong. Cao Chong was short of a car at that time, so he took it away.

With this car, although Cao Chong could feel the wind and frost outside, the heat inside constantly offset the chills.

Sure enough, the exploiting class rarely suffers...

Cao Chong shook his head and drove out the thoughts in his mind, looking at the outside world through the window ridge.

After several hours of marching, Cao Chong could even hear the sparse sound of water and the fishy smell that could not be dissipated by the shore. Cao Chong knew that the Yangtze River was next to him, and Xiakou was right in front of him.

The gate of Xiakou Camp was open, and there were a group of densely packed soldiers wearing armor standing outside. The leader was a middle-aged man. He was burly and had a clear face, but there was a light of wisdom in his eyes. It was precisely because of these eyes that he added a lot of elegance. If it weren't Zhang Liao, who was it?

Behind Zhang Liao was a relatively thin figure, which was Long Zhi. Long Zhi's face was different than that of the people in the Central Plains, as if he had the spirit of some southern barbarians. He looked a little rebellious, but his eyes looked at the upcoming carriage, and the respectful expression on his face was no less than that of others.

Behind Longzhi, there was a general in charge. Some of them were tall and some had their eyes full of wisdom, but looking at the upcoming car driver, the look of admiration in their eyes could not be concealed.

In this car, Mr. Cao Qi was sitting, but Mr. Cao Qi was the one who turned the tide!

There was a legend of Cao Chong in the army, and Cao Chong was a good propaganda player. In just a few days, he spread his "great achievements". Now not only the people in Cao's camp know their reputation, but even Jiangdong also know that Cao Chong is the one in Cao's camp.

Gululu~

The axle rolled, the wheels rolled on the ground, and soon stopped in front of Zhang Liao and others.

Gao Yi rode a tall horse and jumped down quickly at this time and lay on the ground. It seemed that he wanted to use his back to Cao Chong as a step to get off the car.

Cao Chong lifted the curtain and saw Gao Yi in such a look, his brows frowned.

"Qu Wei is the humerus of my Cao Chong, how can I use it as a footrest?"

After Cao Chong said this, Gao Yi felt both ashamed and moved. What was ashamed was that he did not understand Cao Chong and understood what Cao Chong meant was wrong. What was moved was that Cao Chong regarded himself as his own person and as his right-hand man.

The so-called "scholars die for confidants". Gao Yi was moved by the fact that he was loyal to Cao Chong, but he was even more loyal to him.

Cao Chong got out of the car under Gao Yi's hand, and Zhang Liao and others immediately bowed to Cao Chong.

"The last general meets with the General of the Central Army!"

As mentioned earlier, General Zhonglang was originally an official position that could be high or low, but no matter how high the official position was, it was still much lower than Zhang Liao's general who defeated the enemy. However, Zhang Liao saluted him, and the meaning of it was naturally self-evident. Although Cao Chong had known Zhang Liao's intentions for a long time, he still had an unconcealed look of joy on his face.

This is someone who said in front of others that he was Cao Chong.

Before, Cao Chong and Zhang Liao often had letters. Zhang Liao knew Cao Chong's intentions in his heart, and Cao Chong also knew Zhang Liao's ideals. The two of them appreciated each other and naturally got together. However, Zhang Liao showed his attitude in front of everyone, which made Cao Chong feel happy.

In other words, in the future, my foundation has become much deeper in the court and in the army.

Most of the Cao army stationed in Xiakou were Zhang Liao's confidants. With the 440,000 people in Cao Chong's hands, there were almost 100,000 people together. However, in Xiakou, the Jiangdong army had only 70,000 troops. In terms of the number of people, Cao Chong actually had an advantage in this regard.

Cao Chong's eyes flashed. While he was in the summer, it also meant that Cao Cao's first step was started, and the second step was also proceeding in an orderly manner.
