Knowing that Wei Zi died to save Cao Cao, Zhang Miao could not help but feel some heartache. No matter what, Wei Zi was still his subordinate, and losing five thousand troops just like that was his loss. He thought that Cao Cao was someone important, but in the end, he was nothing more than that, and from then on, Zhang Miao no longer held him in any regard.
Looking at Cao Cao's miserable state, Yuan Shao could not help but sneer in his heart. However, as the Alliance Master, he only said in a friendly manner, ”You … Why didn't you listen to my advice? To barge in and implicate more than ten thousand soldiers into the battle, do you have any regrets? ”
”Thank goodness we didn't go, otherwise that would have been terrible.” Gongsun Zan looked at Liu Bei, and said softly: ”Back then when we exterminated Guangzong Zhang Jiao, although she was defeated, the fighting strength of the West Cold Army was not to be underestimated, Cao Cao had never seen it before!”
Liu Bei smiled knowingly and did not say a word.
No one knew who it was, but he put down the wine cup heavily and said angrily, ”You are really overestimating yourself! He had only killed two or three Ant bandit s and said he was a hero. He actually dared to lead thousands of people to counterattack Dong Zhuo's two hundred thousand people. If I were to become the Alliance Master, I will definitely kill this person and stabilize the morale of the troops. ”
Cao Cao had just lost a battle and was in need of comfort and encouragement, but unexpectedly, he was scolded and mocked by the Duke of Guandong s. He could not help but get angry, and started fighting in different places. Cao Cao looked at the audience with eyes full of disdain, and said coldly.
”If you guys listen to my suggestion, please ask Yang Lin to lead the Youzhou army to force your way into Hanoi, and all the dukes stationed there will occupy Cheng Gao, seal up Tai Gu and control all the dangerous regions. Then, you will request Yuan Shu to lead the Nanyang army to Dan Shui, Chu County, and attack the martial gates to threaten San Yu region. All the armies had set up their camps, defending themselves without a fight. The more suspicious the soldiers, the more likely it was that the armies of the world would gather together and then, as a matter of fact, demand for rebellion. The situation could be settled very quickly. Right now, we are known as the draft soldier, but we have been hesitating and have disappointed the people of the world.
Hearing Cao Cao's harsh criticism, the dukes sitting around the table did not make a sound. One ear went into the other, as if he had just eaten a defeat.
Although there were countless grievances in Cao Cao's heart, they could only be swallowed. The reason why these dukes didn't put him in their eyes was because he didn't have the strength or foundation. Now, he had a defeated general hanging on his head, and he was increasingly looked down upon by others. He angrily turned around and coldly said, ”A young man is not worthy of being a schemer!”
Cao Cao didn't even drink a mouthful of wine as he walked angrily into his tent. Seeing his strategist Zhou Zhi and his generals Xia Hou Du, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Le Jin and Li Dian waiting in his tent, he couldn't help but say angrily.
”Now that the world is in chaos, all the dukes are thinking about how to preserve their strength and no one is willing to take the risk and fight with Dong Zhuo. If we want to achieve great things, we have to show respect to the ones who win, and we must gather thousands more soldiers and horses. ”
When he heard that Cao Cao was going to recruit more soldiers, he couldn't help but frown and hesitantly said, ”Thousands of men and horses, perished in one battle. I am afraid the entire CHENLU COUNTY does not believe that you have the ability to lead troops into war, and will find it difficult to recruit you. ”
Cao Cao's advisor, Zhou Zhi, had helped Cao Cao to recruit two thousand soldiers the moment he had started to fight. He was a staunch supporter of Cao Cao and immediately came up with an idea: ”If Yanzhou and CHENLU COUNTY don't believe me, we will recruit them from the other State County. Right now, the allied armies of Jing Prefecture, Henan Province, Fu Prefecture and Yi Prefecture were all present, and the troops had run out of resources. It would be better for them to leave Danyang far behind. My brother is a taiwai, we will go and recruit him! ”
The Dan Yang Soldier was a strong soldier that pointed out that he was part of the Danyang, and was famous for having many strong soldiers. Dan Yang Soldier was a famous elite in history. They were fierce and ruthless, able to fight often, endure hardships and endure hardships, their reputation shook the world.
During the time of the Han Wu Emperor, Li Ling, the grandson of Li Guang, had led five thousand alchemy soldiers to fight against the eighty thousand elite Huns, and fought with all his might in the absence of reinforcements. In the end, only four hundred people were left to retreat, and with the courage of eighty thousand Huns, five thousand Dan Yang Soldier s was enough to make the Huns fear even more.
When Cao Cao heard that he could recruit a Dan Yang Soldier, his small eyes could not help but light up. ”Good! We will immediately go to Danyang. When I was in the Luoyang, I had dealings with the Yangzhou Stinger Warm, and now that he is quite prestigious in the Yangzhou, I believe he can help me out. ”
In desperation, Cao Cao thought that he could no longer stay like this and handed the remaining five hundred soldiers over to Le Jin and Li Dian. He then brought along his advisor Zhou Jing, as well as his generals Xia Houton, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Cao Hong and the others, and left the city, rushing straight towards Yangzhou.
After working hard all the way, Cao Cao finally reached the Yangzhou. He casually bought some local products on the streets and paid a visit to the Yangzhou Stinger Warm and the taiwai Zhou Xin. Cao Cao had prepared a draft text half-way through, immediately denouncing Dong Zhuo with a strong sense of righteousness and anger. He embellished the details of Dong Zhuo's crimes to them, especially when he talked about how Dong Zhuo had tainted first emperor's concubine, which made his narration even more vivid and vivid. He only captivated the two old fellows, Yangzhou Stinger Warm's and taiwai's Zhou Xin, with his narration.
When Cao Cao finished his speech, Chen Rou and Zhou Xin, the two old fellows, were also extremely angry. The first emperor's concubine was a taboo that everyone in the world hated. They didn't even dare to think about it, but this old fogey had taken advantage of them and almost angered the two old fellows to death.
