Cao Cao crosses Wu Dalang

Chapter 569

Xuanhe two years, October eighteenth.

Cao Cao assumed the name of the West Wind Army and occupied Youzhou. With Hua Rong as the main general, he led Tang Bin, Shan Shiqi, Xu Ning, and Niu Wenzhong to take Shunzhou to the north and conquer it in half a day.

On the same day, Miyun County, which belongs to Tanzhou, was robbed by an unknown force. Several fast-footed county officials escaped from the city and rushed to Tanzhou to report.

According to the county officials, the group of powerful people first sent secret agents to sneak into the city pretending to be ordinary people, and seized the east gate in one fell swoop.

The officer guarding the city of Tanzhou was Mr. Bo Jin, the servant of the Cave Immortal of the Liao Kingdom. When he heard the report, he was shocked and hurriedly summoned three generals under his command to discuss, "I am right next to the Great Wall. How important is the location? Wei Wang Nanzheng At that time, I never transferred my soldiers and horses, if there is a mistake, how can I have the face to see the king of Wei?"

After hearing that, the three generals laughed loudly, and patted their chests and said, "Mr. Bo Jin just wants to rest assured that he must be some bandit or sea bandit. Hearing that King Wei's army is going south, he suddenly lost his mind and went mad. The state hit the mansion. But he didn't agree to come to our Tanzhou to beg for wild fire, let the three of us stay here, even ten thousand thieves committed suicide."

The judge not only has to ask: who are these three guys?How can you speak so hard?

The first one of him is a Fan, named Yaoer Weikang, the other two are Han'er, one is Chu Mingyu, the other is Cao Mingji, both are famous brave generals in the Liao Kingdom, who have won many victories in sending troops and releasing horses.

Originally, there was the most extravagant general here, called Alich. The previous year Xi Wang Xiaoqian led his troops to Baoyi Prefecture and passed by here. After Ariki made a brave decision, he saved Xiao Qian's life, but there was no news about him—according to Xiao Qian's words, he must have died at the hands of Jurchen.

Seeing that the three of them were full of confidence, Dongxian's assistant nodded and said, "It all depends on your hard work."

He left Chu Mingyu to guard Tanzhou, and ordered Yao'er Weikang and Cao Mingji to lead troops to recover Miyun County.

The second general got the order, excitedly ordered soldiers and horses, and then went to Miyun County to kill - Tanzhou City was only more than miles away from him. The second general destroyed the army and rushed to Miyun City at sunset.

Seeing the darkness of the sky, Cao Mingji proposed to set up camp outside the city, and attack again at dawn. Wei Kang smiled and said, "Brother, stay away, those thieves saw my army coming, why don't they run away at night? It's okay for him to escape. If the stolen gold and silver also escape, I will wait for nothing, and if, as I said, I break in in one fell swoop and steal the stolen goods, you and I will add up to five, just wait for the beauty, my good brother!"

Hearing what he said, Cao Mingji was immediately tempted, nodded repeatedly and said, "My brother is still thoughtful."

The two immediately ordered to attack the city, but the city wall here is not high, the soldiers built a ladder, climbed to the top of the wall after a while, and opened the city gate from the inside.

Seeing that it was going so smoothly, Yaoer Weikang snatched the door without a single enemy standing in his way, he was shocked and said: "No, the thief must have escaped!"

Quickly ordered a fast horse to investigate, and soon reported that thousands of yellow scarf thieves had fled from the east gate in a mess.

When the two heard about it, they quickly ordered to pursue. Ten thousand Liao soldiers passed through the city and rushed out of the east gate.

In the east of Miyun City, there is a river called Chaohe River. During the flood season, the flood sounds like a huge tide, so it got its name.

After crossing this river, there are large mountains with dense forests, and a road is opened in the middle, which can lead to Jizhou.

The Liao army crossed the Chaohe River and pursued along this road, but they saw ruts on the road, deep in the soil one after another, and there were overturned carts on the side of the road from time to time, copper coins, cloth and silk were scattered all over the place, and the Liao soldiers competed one after another. , the two generals of the Liao Dynasty said happily: "This gang of thieves has really gained a lot of money, isn't it right for the two of us to make a fortune?"

Immediately, the horsewhip was whipped wildly, urging the army to chase after him. After chasing for more than ten miles, the night became darker and darker, and the mountains on both sides were vaguely shadowed, like countless grave mounds.

At this time, autumn was deep, and the night wind was still cool among the mountains. Cao Mingji shivered when he was sitting on his horse and was blown by the wind.

He took a look at the soldiers, the sparse formation dragged on for a long time, each of them was full of tired faces, and suddenly, he grabbed Weikang and said: "Brother, I have been on the road for half a day, and I haven't even had a few sips of water. Both men and horses are tired. , if you keep chasing like this, don't fall into his tricks."

Hearing this, Bite'er Weikang also hesitated, and said hesitantly, "Isn't it? A mere bandit, how can there be such a method?"

While talking, the sentry horse galloped back and hurriedly reported: "Two generals, there is a fork in the road five miles ahead. The thieves started a fight, the money was knocked out, and the blood flowed like a river..."

Bite'er Weikang was overjoyed, and shouted: "But God will wait for me? Brother Cao, don't hesitate, this blessing of wealth is destined to be enjoyed by you and me."

Cao Mingji thought that he had chased here, within five or seven miles, and immediately ordered a group of partial generals to drive the soldiers to speed up. The Liao soldiers were hungry and tired, and they were forced to trot forward, complaining for a while.

Bite'er Weikang and Cao Mingji did nothing but chase after them with hundreds of cavalry. Not long after, they saw a group of flames in front of them, and the sound of fighting fire came with the wind.

The two generals were overjoyed and beat their horses hard to drive away. Sure enough, there was a fork in the road. There were countless carts piled up. More than a thousand thieves with yellow scarves were killing and cursing each other. Some sharp-eyed soldiers saw the Liao soldiers and shouted: "Officers and soldiers. Come, the officers and soldiers are coming, the wind is blowing hard."

Hearing that there were officers and soldiers, the thieves shouted in unison, and fled to the two forked roads, and dozens of them, gritted their teeth and shouted: "I am busy making wedding dresses for others, so I might as well burn them all. "

The torches in their hands were thrown out one after another and landed on the carts. After a while, the fire burst into the sky.Bite'er Weikang said angrily, "Thieves' bones are so disgusting! Come on, follow me to put out the fire."

He rushed to the fire with the cavalry, dismounted and took a look, how could there be money and goods on those carts?It was full of straw, Wei Kang and Cao Mingji exclaimed at the same time: "No, he has caught him!"

Before the words were finished, crossbow arrows and stones were thrown down in the mountains and forests on both sides.

He and his group of Liao soldiers were all standing in the firelight, very conspicuous, they took out their bows and arrows to fight back, it was so dark on both sides, how could they see a single person?
The two Liao generals dialed their arrows and shouted anxiously: "Get on your horse, retreat, retreat!"

The Liao soldiers scrambled for the horses, and suddenly there was a sound of killing. The thieves who had fled into the two forked roads turned around and came back to kill them. They either shot at them with bows and arrows, or threw stones at random. To and fro.

After running for a few miles to meet up with their own infantry, Yaoer Weikang and Cao Mingji felt at ease, counted their troops, and followed the hundreds of Liao cavalry, only five or sixty escaped.

The two generals of the Liao Dynasty cursed impeccably, and the infantry gradually gathered behind, biting Er Weikang and said ruthlessly: "This group of thieves must eat bones. Unfortunately, they burned the cart, how can they take away all the goods? I don’t think he can leave quickly, why don’t you kill a carbine and get revenge!”

Cao Mingji nodded and said: "That's right, that's right, he must have hidden all his belongings in the woods just now, and now he's carrying his hands on his shoulders, how can he escape far?"

The two were of the same mind, and led the troops back in a threatening manner. Seeing that the carts were all extinguished and pushed down on both sides of the road, they both said happily, "But we guessed it right."

Just as he was about to divide his troops to pursue him, he suddenly felt the ground tremor, and his complexion changed suddenly. In a short while, a group of cavalry rushed out from the two forked roads. Straight into the Liao army formation.

Pitiful for this group of Liao soldiers, they set off before noon and walked until midnight, their teeth were not stained with water, and their legs and feet were twitching. How could they defeat this group of wolf-like cavalry?In an instant, they were so killed that they cried for their father and mother, and became a mess.

In the chaos, I heard the thieves who used the halberd to kill and shouted: "Grandpa is the 'Chrysanthemum Taisui' Zhou Overlord. Those who know how to kneel and surrender, or they will all die."

Bite Weikang said in shock: "When did this 'Chrysanthemum Tai Sui' come out of my land? Look at his elite cavalry, they are definitely not ordinary bandits, why have you never heard of his name?"

Cao Mingji shouted: "It doesn't matter how he came from, there are only a few hundred people around, and I have soldiers and horses here, and I have drowned him - I will kill them all. Whoever dares to retreat will be the one who will be the first!"

It turns out that this road, after all, is opened from the mountains, but it is not like a plain area, which can spread out the cavalry.

Cao Mingji, who has been in battle for a long time, can see the clues at a few glances. Now he leads the soldiers to supervise the battle with swords, and will consume their lives with the opponent.

The self-proclaimed Overlord of Zhou was the first to rush forward, flying his halberd, beheading 30 to people in a row, but after all, there were so many Liao soldiers, the road was blocked, and when his horse gradually stopped, the Liao soldiers surrounded him. Spinning on the ground, a painted halberd danced until the water couldn't get in, but I became anxious in my heart, and shouted: "Jie Zhen... No! It's Jie Dacha! Jie Dacha, Jie Ercha, what are you waiting for? I'm going to sing here." You are besieged on all sides!"

Before the words were finished, there was a loud shout of killing in the mountains and forests on both sides, and countless torches were lit, rushing down the mountain like a tide. .
But I saw about people on the left, the two leaders each wielded a dark iron fork, just like two deadly night forks, they smashed more than ten people with their hands.

More than people were also killed on the right side, the first two were a man and a woman, the man held a single whip, and the woman danced with two steel knives, they were extremely ferocious.

Although there are many Liao soldiers, they are exhausted and ambushed. It is not easy to forcibly withstand the cavalry attack. At this moment, if we kill these two groups of troops and face enemies on three sides, how can we resist?

Those Liao soldiers only cared about survival, and did not care about the guards behind them. If they dared to block the way, they drew their knives and chopped them up. They killed more than ten guards in an instant, and fled when they broke through.

Seeing the Liao soldiers fled, the ambush soldiers cheered in unison, and the crowd unfurled banners, with a huge golden chrysanthemum embroidered in the center, but it was embroidered with fine gold thread. See Ambilight, more vivid.

As far as I am writing, the judges must have already understood that the army that attacked Miyun was the Chrysanthemum Army under Li Jun.

The one who calls himself "Chrysanthemum Tai Sui" Zhou Bawang is Zhou Tong, and the cavalry general who wields the saber is Wen Da.Four generals will be killed in the follow-up, namely Jie Zhen, Jie Bao, Sun Xin, and Mrs. Gu.

It turned out that Li Jun changed his name to Li Wudi, the "Sea Dragon" according to Cao Cao's wishes, and made a big fuss in Jizhou. .
He locked the gates of the city tightly, used money and food as bait, and instigated various tribes to fight against each other. In a few days, he killed more than Khitans, and the Khitans in Jizhou were wiped out.

Although Li Jun has never killed anyone, his reputation has become very fierce. All the Han children in the city and other ethnic groups in the Bohai Sea all follow him. He is secretly called "Blood Sea Demon Dragon". Children cry at night.

Li Jun picked up the man who killed many people and was strong, and recruited him into the army. He counted more than people, and scattered all the original sailors among them as team generals. He trained for one month and stayed in Duxing and Lehe to guard Jizhou. , The troops were divided into two groups and officially set off.

Two groups of soldiers and horses, one led by Zhang Shun, Li Ying, Duan Sanniang, Zou Yuan and Zou Run, went east to capture the small prefectures of Ping, Jing, Ying, and Luan, and waited for the opportunity to seize the Great Wall pass. Wenda, Zhou Tong, Jiezhen Jiebao, Sun Xin, Gu Dasao, attacked Tanzhou and seized Huangyaguan.

Because Tanzhou's soldiers and horses have not been recruited, and their own chrysanthemum army has just formed, so they dare not confront him head-on, so they first take Miyun, lure him to chase, and take advantage of the mountain forest to ambush him, and now they really succeed.

Biter Weikang and Cao Mingji saw that there was nothing they could do, so they also turned their horses' heads around and fled wrapped in the defeated army. Thousands of chrysanthemum troops chased and killed them all the way. When they escaped from the mountains, only 4000 of the ten thousand Liao troops remained. The rest were either killed, or fled into the forest at night.

The two Liao generals came to the bank of the Chao River in a panic, looked at it, and complained in unison: "It's a bridge on the river. I don't know when the stone slabs were removed, leaving only two rows of bare bridge piers."

While in a hurry, a small boat floated up slowly. On the boat, a fisherman sat on the side of the boat, fetching water with bare feet, and sang loudly with a wine gourd in his arms. His tone was drunk, obviously he was full old wine.

What he sang was: "I don't work as an official and don't farm. The master only sleeps in the water. If you come to buy a pot of wine, the emperor envies me for my leisure."

When Cao Mingji saw it, he waved quickly: "That fisherman, come to the shore, come to the shore."

The fisherman raised his head drunkenly, and let out a low cry, as if he had been frightened, he kicked the water with his feet, and the boat went further away, and then he sang with a silly smile: "The official called me to the shore, After robbing fish and prawns and robbing money, the master will not be fooled, you and I have no fate today."

A fisherman appeared in the middle of the night, quite strange, Wei Kang was a little suspicious at first, but now seeing that he was going to slip away, he felt relieved, took out a gold ingot in his arms, held it in his hand and called out Said: "That fisherman, just look at what this is!"

The fisherman squinted his drunken eyes, stared at him, straightened his back, and said in a trembling voice, "Isn't this a piece of gold?"

"It's a piece of gold!" Weikang said kindly, "You bring the boat and ferry us to the other side. Gold is yours!"

The fisherman was stunned, a hint of cunning suddenly appeared on his drunken face, he turned over, picked up the paddle, and the boat whizzed, and jumped a foot away from the shore. The fisherman rolled his eyes and said: "Throw the gold onto the boat and see if it's true. If it's true, I'll dock and ferry you."

Seeing that he was cheating, Biaoer Weikang became more relieved, deliberately put on a straight face and said: "Do you think I'm stupid? You took the gold and ran away in a boat. Where can I find you?"

The fisherman struggled for a moment, and said in a low voice, "You came on the boat, killed me, and robbed my boat. Where can I find you?"

Bite Weikang coaxed him: "I am a general of Daliao, how can I bully my own people? If you come to ferry me, you will do me a great favor. Thank you before it is too late, how can I hurt you? This boat of yours, I It's useless to ask for it, and I won't rob you."

Fearing that the pursuers would overtake him, Cao Mingji chimed in and said, "Exactly, this piece of gold is your reward for ferrying us two. With this gold, you don't have to fish, and it's enough to drink for a lifetime."

The two were chattering, and the fisherman seemed to be moved by him, and slowly approached the shore: "You are all generals, don't lie to me, a poor man."

Biao'er Weikang nodded repeatedly, the boat was not big, and he didn't even need a horse, so he hurriedly jumped on board, but he told the generals below: "You wait to line up and guard, the two of us will go back, and immediately send When peasants come to build bridges, if the enemy comes, they just use bows and arrows to stop them."

A group of soldiers were furious in their hearts, but they didn't dare to say more, they all nodded in agreement. .
Then I saw the fisherman pull the oar, and the boat went to the center of the river like an arrow. He pointed at the Liao soldiers on the bank and said with a smile: "You Liao dog, everyone who is sensible will put down their knives and guns, or wait for the chrysanthemum army to surround them. Parents, wives, we will never see each other again, if you don’t believe me, let’s see you in person first!”

He spoke very quickly, before the words fell, the oar rolled up and smashed towards Cao Mingji.

Cao Mingji knew what he was talking about, so he quickly caught the oar, but when he was about to snatch it, the fisherman let go first——

It turned out that he had concealed a short knife, which he held with his oars just now. He hadn't seen it, but now it was clearly exposed. With a poof, he pierced Cao Mingji's neck, and thrust it out. The blood shot out like an arrow. Cao Mingji looked stunned, and stretched out his hand to cover the wound. The fisherman kicked it away and fell into the water with a plop.

Seeing this, Baoer Weikang was shocked, drew out his sword, rushed forward and stabbed the fisherman, the fisherman laughed, turned a somersault into the Chao River, and in a panic, Yaoer Weikang went to pick up the oars, but the boat swayed , Whooped upside down on the river.

The three or four thousand remnant soldiers on the bank were all dumbstruck, staring blankly at the river, and after half a stick of incense, they saw waves surging in the river. Stepping out, he stepped firmly on the Chaohe River, the river only rising and falling on his calf.

The Liao soldiers were all stunned and shouted, "Water ghosts, water ghosts!"

The fisherman laughed loudly, and shouted: "Your father is a water ghost! If you don't want to change your name or surname, my lord, I am Li Wudi, the commander of the Chrysanthemum Army. People in the world call him 'Nao Hai Shen Long'! You You guys have taken advantage of the master's plan, if you don't surrender, I will treat you badly!"

After saying that, he held Bi'er Weikang's hair in one hand, and a knife in his left hand, and stabbed into Wei'er Weikang's neck with one knife. He ignored him, and slowly cut off his head in front of thousands of Liao soldiers.

The headless corpse fell into the water and drifted away with the waves, leaving a frightened head in the hands of the fisherman. He laughed grinningly, lifted the head and shouted: "One last time, will you wait to surrender?" ?”

The Liao soldiers looked at each other, not knowing which one would kneel first. After a while, all the soldiers knelt down on the bank, and only Li Jun stood proudly on the water, holding the head in his hand, like a god or a demon.

The real one is: the sky is full of stars and the moon is full of breasts, Yun Zhihao is intimate with wine.The mighty chrysanthemum dance in the westerly wind wants to stain the country with gold.
