The Nameless of the Common Clans

"Very good!" Chen Mo's camp in Guandu, hearing the news that the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry had been wiped out, Chen Mo couldn't help stroking his hands and smiling: "This way, Cao Jun will no longer be able to restrict our cavalry!"

The cavalry is not the main decisive force on the frontal battlefield, but it would be nonsense to say that it is not important. There is a big gap between one side with cavalry and the other side without cavalry. Especially in the plains, the cavalry has no constraints. The power that can be exerted falls into the hands of those who know how to use cavalry, which is definitely enough power to influence the situation of the battle.

If not, why would Chen Mo bother to try so hard to kill the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry? If it were infantry, even three thousand trapped in the camp would not be able to determine the outcome of such a war of 100,000 people. However, these three thousand tiger and leopard cavalry could keep Cao's army from falling into too much compared with Chen Mo. The biggest disadvantage is that now that the three thousand tiger and leopard cavalry are gone, Chen Mo will have won half of the battle.

"Gather the generals!" Chen Mo looked at the crowd and said.

"Lord, we don't have too many cavalry." Han Qiong on the side reminded.

The total number of Chen Mo's cavalry is only three, less than 5,000. Ma Chao's last breakout suffered too many losses. This is why Chen Mo is afraid of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. Although these cavalry can also threaten Cao Cao, if That's enough to say it determines the outcome.

"That was before. It just so happens that I have a few generals to meet you." Chen Mo said with a smile.

Soon, the generals gathered, and Han Qiong and others discovered that there were a few unfamiliar faces in the crowd.

"Let me introduce you to everyone." Chen Mo waved to a few people and said: "Hua Rong is the son of General Hua Xiong of Zhenxi. Over the years, he has guarded the border with his father and has repeatedly fought against the Qiang, Xiongnu and Shi people. After one defeat, he is now known as the most powerful general in Xiliang."

Um?

When Ma Chao heard this, he turned to look at the young man who stood up. He was twenty-five or six years old and looked a little thin, but as he glanced at him, he instinctively felt that he was not easy to mess with, and that he was very evil.

But what Ma Chao really cares about is the title of Xiliang's number one general. A few years ago, it belonged to him. Although he has arrived in the Central Plains now, he doesn't know if this kid is qualified to inherit this title.

"Last General Hua Rong, I have met you all!" The young man gave a military salute to everyone and retreated to Chen Mo. He seemed to feel Ma Chao's gaze and faced Ma Chao, looking at him with a bit of provocation.

Hey, are all young people today so in need of help?

What's Ma Chao's temperament? He stared back immediately, it seemed that he had to find an opportunity to let this junior know what dignity and inferiority are.

"Xu Kai is the son of Xu Rong, the Protector of the Western Regions. He has managed the Western Regions with his father over the years. He followed the example of Ban Ding who went to the Western Regions and made Yiwu, Juyan, Yanqi and other nine countries attach themselves to our great Han Dynasty again." Chen Mo pointed to another country. One person smiled.

"Xu Kai has met all the generals." Xu Kai gave a slight salute. Unlike Hua Rong, Xu Kai did not seem to be brave, but he had a military style that was rare even in this big tent. He was a very serious person. people.

When Ma Chao saw this person, he instinctively thought of Xu Rong. There was no provocation this time. He and Xu Kai knew each other well. When Ma Chao surrendered to Chen Mo, he first followed Xu Rong instead of Chen Mo. Later, he was recommended by Xu Rong. Chen Mo's side.

"Cao Xing, the brave general under Marquis Wen, you should have heard of him." Chen Mo pointed at Cao Xing beside him and said with a smile.

"The last general, Cao Xing, has met all the generals!" Cao Xing took a step forward and saluted everyone.

When Lu Bu left Nanyang, in addition to Zhang Liao, he took many of his trusted generals with him. Cao Xing had stayed in Luoyang for a while, and many people had met him.

"Han De, Ziyi's general, is good at using axes and is extremely brave." Chen Mo pointed at the last person and said with a smile.

"Han De, I have met all the generals!" Han De saluted everyone.

Chen Mo said: "The key to this battle is the cavalry. I specially sent a letter to all states to suspend external attacks first and send some elite cavalry to assist in the battle. This time, the cavalry sent by Xiliang, Bingzhou, and Youzhou totaled 12,000 Cavalry, plus the current cavalry in our army, there are more than 16,000, which is enough to crush Cao's army!"

"Lord, how should we fight next? Please give me your orders!" After hearing this, the generals said excitedly. Sixteen thousand riders, if placed at the border, would be enough to fight any grassland force. On the current battlefield, it would be a bit difficult to fight Cao Jun alone, but as an auxiliary army, 16,000 cavalry would be enough to give Cao Jun a drink.

"Ma Chao, Pang De, Zhang Xiu, Xu Kai, Hua Rong, Cao Xing, and Han De obey orders!" Chen Mo looked at the generals and smiled.

"The general is here!" Upon hearing this, the seven people came out of the queue and bowed.

"Sixteen thousand cavalry, divided once again, leave two thousand cavalry in the camp and be under my control. For the rest of the cavalry, seven of you will go out with two thousand cavalry each. You don't need to compete with Cao Jun directly. You can bypass Cao Jun's camp and attack Loot its grain roads and harass its cities. Remember, if Cao Jun sends When encircling and suppressing troops, if the enemy exceeds three thousand, retreat immediately. If there are less than three thousand, you can fight but don't be reluctant to fight. If the battle cannot be ended in half an hour, withdraw immediately to avoid being surrounded by the enemy." Chen Mo ordered: "Remember not to be reluctant to fight. , don’t be greedy for merit!”

As long as these seven people do nothing wrong, no matter how secretive Cao Cao's food route is, it will not escape the sight of these seven cavalrymen.

"Here!" The seven people responded loudly.

"Han Qiong, Zhang He!" Chen Mo took out two command arrows and said.

"The last general is here!" Generals Han Qiong and Zhang He took a step together and bowed.

"The two of you will command 15,000 men respectively, as the left and right wings. You will follow me out of camp early tomorrow morning to fight Cao Jun for a decisive battle. You will be responsible for cooperating with the Chinese army in the battle!" Chen Mo handed the two command arrows to the two of them.

"General, take your orders!" The two generals bowed, took the arrows, and stepped away.

"The rest of the generals will prepare their own armies. We will prepare food at five o'clock tomorrow and set off for the expedition at sunrise!" Chen Mo looked at the generals and said with a smile.

"The last general takes orders!" The generals responded enthusiastically. This battle may be the decisive battle between Chen Mo and Cao Cao.

After Chen Mo made some specific arrangements, he asked the generals to go back to their camps to make arrangements, leaving only Xu Shu and Xun You in the tent.

"Let him come in." After seeing the generals leaving, Chen Mo said to Xu Shu.

"Here!" Xu Shu nodded and gestured to Dian Wei: "Please ask General Dian to let the guards outside the tent pass."

Dian Wei nodded, and not long after he left, he came in carrying Han Fu.

"My lord, what is your crime?" Han Fu was kicked to the ground by Dian Wei.

"Even now, you still refuse to admit it?" Chen Mo lowered his head, looked at Han Fu, and frowned.

"General... I wonder why my lord said this?" Han Fu gritted his teeth and lowered his head.

"Those two of your men have been captured by me. During this period, you secretly communicated with Cao Jun six times. Each time, the food and grass transported by our army would be found by Cao Jun. The last time, it was even found. Our army is stationing food, you said..." Chen Mo looked at Han Fu and said with some disappointment: "You said I should trust you or your two subordinates."

Han Fu's face turned pale and he knelt on the ground silently.

"I'm very curious." Chen Mo knelt down and looked at Han Fu with a frown: "Although you are not a good general, you still have some abilities. As long as you continue like this, after more than ten years, you may be able to be among the scholars. What will happen to Cao Cao?" How much benefit was promised to you to make you betray the imperial court at all costs?"

This is what Chen Mo has always wondered about. With Han Fu's background, it is rare to be among the scholars in this life. He is not from a high background. Even if he went to Cao Cao, it would be difficult for Cao Cao to promise him more. Big benefit, in this case, why would Han Fu take such a risk to betray himself?

"Mo... General Mo was ordered by the imperial court..." Han Fu lowered his head and said.

"The Suiyang court?" Chen Mo frowned.

"Luoyang Imperial Court." Han Fu bowed.

"The imperial court asked you to betray your own army?" Chen Mo was amused. What kind of bullshit is this? Only people in the imperial court would do this if they have a flaw in their brains? Immediately, he patted the table and his expression suddenly became stern: "Han Fu, you should know the laws of the DPRK. If you are guilty of it now, you will bear the blame alone. But if you continue to do this, even the emperor will not be able to protect your family! "

"Lord, it's absolutely true!" Han Fu's expression changed. Although Chen Mo rarely did things that harmed his family, it was not that he had never done anything. Not only the far ones, but the near ones, because with a sudden pause, Chen Mo almost came close. Killed all Karasuma.

"Where is the edict?" Chen Mo's face darkened. Anyone who was stabbed in the back by his own court would not be in a good mood, let alone when the fate of the country was decided.

"There is no edict, but it is the emperor's oral instructions." Han Fu said in a low voice.

"Louder, who passed the oral instructions? You should know this, right?" Chen Mo patted the table and frowned.

"It's Zhao Shen, the censor Zhongcheng." Han Fu said in a trembling voice.

"Zhao Shen?" Chen Mo frowned, looked at Han Fu and said, "How did he tell you?"

Han Fu said: "Zhao Shenyan, my lord has a disobedient heart. If he wins this battle, his arrogance will inevitably become stronger, and it will be difficult for the court to suppress the lord, so this battle must be lost!"

If Chen Mo wins this battle, then all the land in the Central Plains will be owned by Chen Mo. Almost all of this world was conquered by Chen Mo. In that case, Chen Mo's reputation will inevitably become more powerful. By then, no matter what Chen Mo wants to do, no one will be able to do it. stop.

"Should this battle be lost?" Chen Mo smiled, a bit bitterly. He looked at Xu Shu and then at Xun You, both of whom were silent. This kind of thing would not be easy on anyone.

"Bang~"

Chen Mo stood up suddenly, raised his foot and kicked the table away, hitting Han Fu hard.

The guards outside the tent heard the noise and rushed in immediately.

"Take him down and behead him tomorrow to sacrifice the flag!" Chen Mo said coldly. No matter what the reason was, Han Fu's behavior was betrayal. If Yu Sheng hadn't been cautious, he might have let the other party do it.

"Lord!" Seeing Han Fu being dragged out with a defeated look on his face, Dian Wei said murderously: "General, go back now and kill that Zhao Shen!"

Chen Mo shook his head and said nothing. Zhao Shen just showed it, but how many people in the court had this idea? How many people were involved in this matter?

"Everything remains as usual, just pretend this never happened, and we won't talk about anything else until we win this battle!" Finally, Chen Mo suppressed the anger in his heart and said in a deep voice.

"Here!"
