Chapter 16 Hail Weather
Cao Ren rode his horse back to the front of the formation and said to Cao Pi angrily: "Second Young Master, Li Chen is so rude, let's attack forcefully."
Cao Ren was naturally afraid of being humiliated. At this time, he just wanted to attack Xuzhou and capture Li Chen alive to avenge his previous shame.
Seeing this, Cao Pi hurriedly spoke and advised: "General Cao Ren, don't be angry, and you must not break your elder brother's plan."
At this time, Cao Ren's mentality had collapsed, so he could not let him go to the city to silence. So Cao Pi left the hut and got up.
In the heavy rain, Li Chen stood on the city wall, Shi Ang looked at Cao Pi under the city with a smile and said, "The second young master is here again, I am missing the welcome."
Li Chen is also used cleverly, which is a secret mockery of Cao Pi's defeat last time and is here again this time.
Under the city of Xuzhou, Cao Pi stood up and said, "Li Chen, I won't talk to you. How can you be called the chief of the palace? This Xuzhou city is a must-have place for my Cao family. The Cao family's 300,000 troops arrived in less than a month. Those who know the knowledge were still handing over the murderer who killed my grandfather and gave up Xuzhou. My father has always cherished talents and will definitely give you a good fortune."
Since the Spring and Autumn Period, the marshal has always been the highest position in the army. Since Liu Bang, the Han Dynasty no longer set up marshals. The highest military position in the court has also changed from marshals to generals, just like Wei Qing, and Huo Guang is just a general.
The last general of the Han Dynasty was He Jin. After He Jin, Dong Zhuo was in power and called him the prime minister. Whether it was the prime minister who Dong Zhuo called or the prime minister who later used the emperor to command princes, he was even more inclined to the title of civil servants.
Li Chen believed that he was not a civil servant, but he did not want to call himself a general. How could he say that in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, including the Three Kingdoms period, it could be said that generals were everywhere, and the lieutenant was not as good as dogs. In this era, miscellaneous generals were everywhere. It was precisely because of this that Li Chen called himself the palace commander.
"My army is so powerful that my lord cannot be called the palace commander?" Li Siye said with some dissatisfaction.
"Hmph, looking at Xuzhou's soldiers are only 50,000 and generals are only 10. How can the soldiers win?" Cao Pi said bluntly.
Li Siye is not good at speaking, and he is inevitably speechless when Cao Pi criticized him like this.
"Haha, the second young master Cao is right. My little Xuzhou talks about how powerful the troops are. Eight hundred Mo Dao soldiers have defeated the three thousand tiger and leopard cavalry."
"Siye, your Modao Warrior is too weak. Tomorrow, I will practice with you three thousand pigs. Let's take a look at these three thousand pigs and three thousand tigers and leopard cavalry, which one is easy to kill." Li Chen scolded Li Siye.
"Okay, lord, I will definitely deal with the three thousand pigs like I do when I deal with the tiger and leopard cavalry." Li Siye said solemnly.
"Hmph, I'm trying to show off my verbal skills with me. I'll let you know what it means to squirt in one second." Li Chen thought so in his heart.
Cao Pi's face turned pale and his whole body was trembling with anger. He pointed at Li Chen on the city wall and said, "Li Chen, do you dare to come out to fight."
"Go out, why should I go out?"
"But it's not impossible for Mr. Cao to come in. When I get married with Zhen Mi, I will definitely give a wedding invitation to the second Mr. Li Chen jokingly.
"Shameless, shameless." Cao Pi felt angry at this time, and almost got angry and smoked.
When Zhen first betrothed Zhen Mi to Yuan Tan, Cao Pi snatched Zhen Mi, which was equivalent to slapping Yuan Shao in the face, making Cao suppress Yuan in a momentum, and also making Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Yuan's family, a laughing stock.
However, now that Li Chen intercepted the Hu of Cao, Cao Pi will become the topic of conversation for the world after dinner.
And it can be imagined that Cao Pi will inevitably become a joke that is bigger than Yuan Tan. Because Cao took Zhen Mi from Yuan's hand, the two families are powerful forces. But now it is different. Li Chen, a small bandit, snatched Zhen Mi from his Cao's hand. This is a very shame for Cao's hand.
"A cowardly child, who dares not go out to fight in the city, will only show off his verbal advantage."
Seeing that he was yelling under the city and wanted to anger Li Chen and let him leave the city, but who knew that he had never scolded him before. First, Cao Ren was so angry that he vomited blood, but now he was so angry that he was smoked. Under the city, Cao Pi had no choice but to refute.
Li Chen smiled indifferently: "Cao Pi, it's not that I dare not leave the city, but that there is no need."
"What do you mean?" Cao Pi asked in confusion.
Li Chen stood on the city wall and said to Cao Pi under the city: "Cao Pi, what if you make a bet with you? If I can defeat your Cao army without sending one soldier, I will meet you in the future. How about you Cao Pi retreating?"
"hehe!"
As soon as Li Chen said this, Cao Pi couldn't help but sneer. He didn't send one army and one soldier to defeat Cao's army. What is this about dreaming? The only thing that can defeat the army without manpower is water attack, fire attack and other few strategies.
Water attack is impossible because there is no sign of water storage near Xuzhou City.
As for fire attack, it is even more impossible. Now it is a heavy rainy weather.
"The weather today is useless, water and fire. If Li Chen, you can defeat my Cao army without a soldier. Let's retreat when we meet in the future. I will call you grandpa when we meet." Cao Pi said coldly, and he thought to himself, wouldn't it be a fool to scare me Cao Pi with such a method?
"Cao Pi, do you know how Emperor Guangwu of Han Liu Xiu used three thousand cattle soldiers to defeat Wang Mang's millions of troops in the Battle of Kunyang?" Li Chen asked.
"Hahaha!" Cao Pi was stunned at first when he heard this, and then laughed: "Do you want to say that meteorites can be dropped from the sky now?"
"Emperor Guangwu of Han is destiny. Such a miracle has not been once even in thousands of years. Li Chen, can you really think you are a destiny?"
"I, Cao Pi, are talking about it here. If I can get a meteorite from the sky now, how many meteorites fall down there will be, and how many I will swallow him alive."
"Oh." Li Chen sighed lightly and used the hail technique that was opened in the blind box.
This hail technique is a consumable and can only be used once. However, when Cao Pi was not old and came out to cheat him for food and drink, Li Chen was not willing to let him down.
Suddenly, the heavy rain in the sky seemed to have stopped for a moment.
Immediately afterwards, a "bang, bang, bang" sounded. Countless huge hailstones in the sky fell "swooshing".
The rain curtain falling from the sky almost instantly turned into hail. The hail was thirty centimeters in size and hit Cao's army with a crackling sound.
The hail, which was thirty centimeters in diameter, was the size of two or three adults. The dense hail fell violently into the Cao army's camp. This thing hit the body, and even the Cao army in armor could not defend it.
"Rise the shield, raise the shield."
Cao Ren shouted, asking the sword and shield soldiers in the front row to raise the big shield in their hands to block their heads.
However, these soldiers with shields are only a few. Many of the soldiers without shields have been knocked unconscious.
"ah."
