Chapter 27 The Righteousness

Cancer! Xie Chengbin is so amazing, he is so careful! The 18th Army Alliance? The Battle of Hulao Pass? Maybe you can take advantage of the situation, but maybe you can be a governor of Qingzhou or a miscellaneous general! "Ahem! I'm passing on my order, gather all the elite cavalry, bring more dry food, and prepare to attack Luoyang!"

When everyone heard Xie Chengbin's order, everyone was stunned. No one responded. For a moment, the whole hall was silent! Xie Chengbin handed the secret edict to Gao Xu. When Gao Xu saw it, he exclaimed, his hand trembled, and the secret edict fell! Dian Wei's hand quickly caught the secret edict in the air. When he opened it, his eyes widened and petrified instantly! Zhang Fei couldn't wait to snatch the secret edict and snorted coldly! "Hmph! Dong Zhe is so unforgivable, and he should send troops!"

The next day, Xie Chengbin wore a helmet and armored with Zhang Fei, leading three thousand iron cavalry to set off and drove west on a large ship. Tell me about these three thousand iron cavalry, each war horse was equipped with a kickstand and a horseshoe, and the armor could only protect the head and front half of the horse; each knight was equipped with a two and a half meters long-handled sword and helmet, and the armor was simplified vest armor, not full-body armed like Western knights. It was not that Xie Chengbin didn't want it, but that his financial resources were insufficient! The equipment of only three thousand people and horses consumed Xie Chengbin's money treasury (the reserved military pay was not included).

If people and horses are replaced with sealed armor, then the current three thousand people will be reduced to less than one thousand. For such a simplified version of the cavalry, Xie Chengbin didn't know whether they were light cavalry or heavy cavalry. It was said that they were three thousand horses, that was the sum. Apart from the horses that were heavy in the shaft, carrying flags, as well as investigators, military doctors, gongs and trumpets, the real combatants were only more than two thousand -_-#

The three-wheeled ship traveled day and night as Xie Chengbin told me. On the way, he occasionally encountered other ships, which made Xie Chengbin die. Because the ship was full of people and horses, they were all Xie Chengbin's treasures, and there were no extra archers. Once they met a thief, they would cry without tears. After two days of worry, they finally arrived at the north bank of Guandu and led their men and horses to Soyzao (now Yanjin County).

When I came to the sour jujube, what I saw in front of me was more than spectacular! I saw troops everywhere in the mountains and fields, and there were different flags. There were so many tents in the military camp that they could not see at a glance! Three thousand cavalrymen looked loose and loose, but standing here seemed insignificant! Just as Xie Chengbin was stunned, more than a dozen people rode their horses and rushed towards Xie Chengbin without any flags. They got closer and closer, and soon came to Xie Chengbin. Seeing Xie Chengbin wearing a cloak, they clasped their fists to Xie Chengbin. "I wonder what you call me? Are you coming to attack Dong Zhe?"

"Xie Cheng, the prefect of Jinan, came to fight against Dong thief!" Xie Chengbin bowed his fists and bowed. When he thought of fishing for troubled waters, he couldn't help but smile. The man opposite was still serious, pulled the reins, and turned around. "Please follow me, your soldiers will be guided to camp."

Xie Chengbin told Zhang Fei not to cause trouble, and then he led his ten confidants to drive the horse and followed the man straight. After about ten minutes, he came to a huge tent and stopped. The tent was at least fifty meters long and ten meters high, and there were many guards standing around. Everyone dismounted, Xie Chengbin was entered, and all his confidants were stopped outside the door.

Before Xie Chengbin entered the tent, he heard someone arguing something inside. After walking in, he saw four people sitting on both sides. Xie Chengbin was stunned. Isn’t there eight people to attack Dong Zhuo? Why are there only eight people here, and I didn’t see Liu Bei and Guan Yu, who will kill Hua Xiong? Where did the others go? Is it because the journey is long and I haven’t arrived yet? Before Xie Chengbin could come back to his senses, a familiar voice came over. "Zi Bin is coming just right!"

When he calmed down, he saw that the man was Cao Cao, but Cao Cao's face seemed not very good and a little red. Maybe it was because he was too excited. Before Xie Chengbin could speak, Cao Cao continued, "You come to judge the matter. Dong's thief burned the palace and moved the emperor, and the country was shocked! What's more, Dong's subordinates were all Ding Yuan and He Miao's old subordinates, and the army was uneven! We had a total of 100,000 troops, so we could take this opportunity to march into Chenggao. As long as Chenggao takes it, you can attack and retreat and defend. Zibin said yes or not?"

After Cao Cao said this, the other seven people turned their heads to look at Xie Chengbin. Xie Chengbin didn't see Guan Yu, and didn't know if Sun Jian was there, so he didn't want to express his opinions, so he found a reason to make excuses. "Hehe, I'm a little ignorant and knowledgeable, and I still have a little understanding of civil affairs. I don't know the matter of leading the army!"

After Xie Chengbin said this, the seven people burst into laughter. Cao Cao's breathing rapidly and his face turned red, so angry that his lungs were about to explode. "Hmph! You and others are all greedy for life and fear of death! The last one is not enough to make a decision!"

After Cao Cao said that, he walked out of his position and walked angrily by Xie Chengbin. Xie Chengbin knew that Cao Cao was angry and went to attack Chenggao, but he ended up fighting with Xu Rong's army and was almost captured alive. What should I do? Go to Cao Cao to make up for Cao Cao and let history completely change? No! In that case, the reputation he had finally established was gone, and it might be infamous for thousands of years.

Maybe history has changed, and Cao Cao might be killed by Xu Rong? What should I do? Go and save him? Don’t tease him! If Cao Cao dies, then history doesn’t need to be modified by himself. Wouldn’t it be worrying? But then again, after all, after all, Cao Cao admires himself so much, so we just curse him like this? It seems a bit unreasonable. Well... why don’t you help him? Anyway, Dian Wei was caught by him. Without Dian Wei, Cao Cao should have died soon.

"Brother Meng De! Please stay!" Make up his mind, Xie Chengbin quickly chased out. Cao Cao followed several confidants, not far away, and stopped and turned around when he heard Xie Chengbin's voice. Xie Chengbin came to Cao Cao with a worried expression. "I know that Brother Meng De is dedicated to serving the country, but Brother Meng De has very little troops. You can't attack Chenggao rashly, otherwise you will die for a lifetime!"

"Why did Zibin know that someone was going to attack Chenggao alone?" Cao Cao was shocked when he heard this, so he was so surprised that he could almost put an egg on his mouth. Xie Chengbin knew that his mouth was about to leak, but he didn't know how to explain, and he was speechless for a while. Cao Cao had come to his senses, patted Xie Chengbin on the shoulder, and sighed. "Oh... I don't know that I'll die for the rest of my life. Now the country is so difficult, and the princes in the pass are suspicious of each other and dare not move. If someone is lucky enough to occupy Chenggao, the princes in the pass must have bravely advanced at that time!"

Looking at Cao Cao who was gradually moving away, Xie Chengbin finally understood why so many people were willing to work for him. This is the righteousness! Unfortunately, it would be great if his future son did not become emperor. In that case, Xie Chengbin would definitely surrender to Cao Cao.

That night, Cao Cao led his subordinates to fight and kill, and finally arrived at Xingyang County east of Chenggao. Xingyang "sustained in the south, the ridge crossed the north, surrounded by Jingxiangcheng in the east, and crossed the Hulao Pass in the west", so it was known as "the east capital is tied with the throat of the Three Qins". It has always been a place that military strategists must fight for. Cao Cao ordered scouts to investigate the nearby situation, and the rest seized time to rest and prepare to attack Chenggao County tomorrow.

Just in a grass not far from Xingyang County, several black shadows were watching the situation in Xingyang, and then bent down and quietly left the scene, looking like a thief. Not long after, the few people walked away, they encountered several horses, just one by one, and they each got on their horses, with very skillful movements and headed straight towards Hulao Pass to the west.

"Report to the military advisor! The vanguard of the Kwantung Army attacked Xingyang with five thousand troops, and the banner was Cao, Xingyang was lost!" At Hulao Pass, a scout dressed in a scout reported to a literati. The literati was originally admiring the moonlight under Hulao Pass. After listening to the report, he turned slowly, and it turned out to be Jia Xu! "Well, go and call General Xu Rong."

It was dawn, and Cao Cao left 100 people as usual, and ordered that if there was an emergency, he didn't have to stand firm and just come and report to Cao Cao. The rest of the troops continued to move forward. After walking for about an hour and a half, Cao Cao found something was wrong and signaled to let the troops stop. According to military rules, the scouts sent out had to come back for half an hour (one hour). Why did there be no trace of the scouts for almost an hour? No! You are going to ambush!

Before Cao Cao could order to retreat, a messenger ran over from behind, saying that many enemy troops appeared from behind. Cao Cao was secretly surprised, and as expected, he was really ambushed! On the surface, he ordered an array to be arranged and charged from behind. Seeing that Cao Cao was so calm, the messenger was much more uneasy, so he turned around and sent an order, opened his unique loud voice and began to yell. "The general has orders, set up a array! Charge back!"

Five thousand men gathered quickly, and soon formed a triangular formation. The swords and shield soldiers were lined up at the front, and the war drums and the shafts were rearranged at the end. Multiple war drums sounded one after another, and the rhythm of the war drums was slow and neat and powerful. Whenever the war drums sounded, the soldiers of the Cao army took a step forward. Although they were not as neat as later generations, they were also extremely spectacular. The Dong army on the opposite side had no intention of advancing at all. They set up their formations to prepare for defense, and the two sides gradually approached. The rhythm of the war drums became faster and faster, and the soldiers of the Cao army gradually accelerated, and the distance was shortened rapidly. The sound of the war drums was so fast that the rhythm was messy, and the soldiers of the Cao army shouted and killed the other side.
