Chapter 462: House of Flying Daggers
That afternoon, at the south gate of Pingchang City, an army of less than 10,000 people was already ready to go. Cao Hong, wearing a strong armor, looked at the general in front of him with a scarred face and a short beard and said seriously: "Gong Liu, although you are not a direct subordinate of a certain person, you are brave and loyal to your lord. Gongming said that if there is a problem with him, the army will be handed over to you. If a certain person attacks this time, if it can succeed, it will naturally be fine. If you have any problems, you must remember that you must not open the Pyeongchang city gate without seeing someone. Even if you die outside, you will also defend Pingchang and defend Xuzhou."
When the "General" heard this, Shi Huan's face showed concern and said, "Or why don't you go this time! You come to guard Pingchang."
"Haha, Yuan Ping fished for someone. If he didn't go, this battle would be ineffective." Cao Hong said with a smile.
"General, since you know this, why should you take this risk?" Chen Qun persuaded him anxiously. He had persuaded him several times, but Cao Hong at this time, in addition to greed for the money, he also wanted to teach Yuan Ping a heavy lesson to show the strength of the Cao family. Although Chen Qun was worried, only Xu Huang could stop Cao Hong in Pingchang City. Although his family background was average, his status was far inferior to Cao Hong.
Cao Hong had already said that it seemed very good, but he was still worried. Yuan Ping seized the Huzhu and was the first to attack Xu Du, which has made General Xu Huang unable to move this year. Will such a person follow their plan step by step?
Cao Hong raised his lips and said, "Long article, there is no risk in war. You don't have to worry. Someone will go. You will accompany Shi Huan to guard Pingchang. You two are both literary and military, so you will definitely be fine. As long as Pyeongchang is safe, someone will have no worries."
"General" Chen Qun still wanted to persuade him.
"No need to say more, I want Yuan Ping to know today. I, Cao Hong, are not so easy to mess with." After a cold smile, Cao Hong immediately stepped on the war horse and shouted: "Open the door."
"promise!!"
When the gate of Pingchang South opened, Cao Hong pointed his sword and immediately swept out from the city gate with tens of thousands of troops.
Chen Qun looked at the gradually disappearing army and sighed immediately, then said seriously: "General Shi Huan, if Yuan Ping really had a trick, then he would definitely have arrangements for Pingchang. The general must defend the city, especially to prevent someone from cheating the city."
"Long article, peace of mind" Shi Huan nodded and responded with understanding.
Soon, about dusk, I saw a convoy of hundreds of people walking slowly between Pyeongchang and Anqiu. The strong man in the lead kept looking south, with a little anxious.
"Captain, why haven't you come yet?" A man dressed in a guard suddenly walked to the strong man and said with some concern.
"Who knows, I don't care. Anyway, we will head towards Anqiu as planned," said the strong man seriously.
"promise!"
After the convoy had been marching for half a cup of tea again, the ground suddenly vibrated. After turning around, he saw thousands of Cao troops sweeping fiercely from the south. Cao Hong rushed to the front and kept shouting loudly: "Kill!!!"
"Captain, here we go"
"Give up everything immediately, pull it." A smile appeared on the strong man's face. After whispering orders, he hurriedly led the guards directly to the east.
After Cao Hong came with thousands of troops, he looked at the vast field in front of him, and a hint of doubt appeared on his face. Such a place is not suitable for ambushing at all! Could it be that this was not Yuan Ping's conspiracy?
"General, it's really money." At this time, a deputy general suddenly shouted excitedly, and saw the wooden boxes opening one by one, either with orange gold or boxes of coins inside.
Cao Hong's eyes suddenly showed a strong surprise, and he ran over immediately, grabbed a piece of gold, took a bite, and laughed and said, "I've got rich this time."
"General, but there is something strange. Since these twenty cars are all filled with money, why are there so few guards and fleeing without fighting? Are they not afraid of military law?" The deputy general suddenly said with some concern.
Cao Hong's eyes were fixed and he immediately reacted. This was indeed a problem. However, after turning his head to look at the more than 20 cars of money in front of him, he immediately said greedily: "Don't worry, immediately pull the cart back to Pingchang, so that Dong Ji, who was originally ambushed, would turn the rear army into the front army to open the way."
Originally, in his plan, Yuan Ping should have found a suitable place for ambush for him, but then he was surrounded. Therefore, he asked Dong Ji to lead the rear of the army. Once there was a problem, he immediately surrounded him. However, he did not expect that the convoy would be in such a wilderness, and that there was no way to ambush him here. There were only two explanations. The first was that his luck was indeed coming, and Yuan Ping took it lightly. The second was that Yuan Ping had other plans, so he had to send someone to open the way first and continue to connect from beginning to end.
"promise!"
"Start immediately, don't stop for a moment," Cao Hong ordered loudly.
"promise!"
Cao Hong's soldiers immediately got on the carriage, waved their whip and began to return quickly towards Pingchang. However, after just half an hour, just when they left the mine and were less than two miles away, the horses pulled suddenly slowed down one by one, and their steps seemed to be a little weak, and some even pulled them up and thin.
"What's going on?" Cao Hong said in surprise.
"General, these horses are wrong. It seems that they have eaten the wrong thing. We probably have been fooled. Why don't we give up the money?" The deputy general showed a hint of anxiety on his face.
"How can you throw away the wealth you get so easily and change the horse immediately," Cao Hong ordered.
"No!" After the deputy general sent a command, a cavalry immediately gave up his horse. However, after a while, the deputy general said in surprise again: "General, he is a dead knot and cannot untie the rope at all, so he can only cut it off. If it is cut off and fixed again, it will probably take half an hour."
"Damn it, why don't you go quickly and let Dong Ji slow down a little bit." Cao Hong roared. Although he already had a bad premonition in his heart, he was so much money! He really couldn't bear it.
At this moment, if you look down from the sky, you will see that on a land centered on Cao Hong and Dong Ji, the astonishing number of Dayan troops gathered from ten different directions, constantly shrinking their formation.
On a high mountain leading to Pyeongchang, Yuan Ping, wearing golden armor, held the sword in his hand and stood there with many generals. As the pigeons slowly fell from the air, Yuan Ping laughed loudly and said, "How can you be defeated if you are so greedy?"
"Send the order and follow the plan, order Tian Xiu, who is stationed in the south, to prevent Dong Ji from breaking through, immediately attacking both sides of the east and west, and eat Dong Ji first, and the various troops stationed in ambush. Remember, this commander is not to ambush the whole side of Cao Hong's subordinate, but to wipe out all the troops leaving Pingchang this time, laying the foundation for the fraud city." Yuan Ping ordered seriously. The reason why he was so troublesome was that as long as one of them ran away would affect the result of fraud city. The other Yuan Xi was in the military camp at this time. The ordinary ambush could not reflect the ability of the two army, nor could he reflect his level.
"promise"
......
On the other side, in the military camp in Anqiu, Yuan Xi sat behind the desk, leisurely savoring the wine.
"King, do you need to deal with Cao Hong?" Liu Fang said in surprise.
