Leaving Ding Yuan's Governor's Mansion, Cao Cao asked: "Bokang disobeyed Ding Yuan when we first came here, will it become an obstacle for us to suppress the Huns?"

In fact, Cao Cao was a little disappointed. Before he came here, he had heard about Ding Yuan's previous actions, and thought that Ding Yuan should be a promising leader, but after a while, he found that Ding Yuan seemed to have a lot of selfishness.

And they are actually guarded and conspired against them.

Although Ding Yuan's performance was not obvious, it still made him feel uncomfortable.

Xu Ding glanced back at the Governor's Mansion and said: "The obstacle is not too great. Ding Yuan is definitely happy to see the elimination of the Huns' chaos, but I maliciously speculate that he has no intention or intention to completely wipe out the Huns, and even There is an intention to maintain the current state of affairs.”

Raising the bandits' self-respect, this word was originally intended to be given to Dong Zhuo who quelled the chaos in Liangzhou, but now I feel that it can also be given to Ding Yuan.

Why is Ding Yuan only staring at Wuyuan County and not in a hurry to regain Xihe County? Isn't he afraid that the Huns will directly enter Taiyuan from Xihe County?

On the contrary, he wished that the Huns would go south or east from Xihe County.

Because Taiyuan is directly threatened in this way, he can continue to expand his army openly and station his troops in Taiyuan County nearby.

Think about the knife outside and the knife inside, what kind of attitude the family in Taiyuan County will have towards Ding Yuan, it must be surrender and acceptance, otherwise Ding Yuan can use the hands of the Huns to kill the family in Taiyuan, the same I can also use my head to kill this group of aristocratic families.

Chapter 174 Cao Cao attracts monsters, Xu Ding explodes

The big families of Bingzhou are all concentrated in Taiyuan County, which is the essence and focus of the whole Bingzhou.

You said that Ding Yuan had no wrong intentions, Cao Cao Xu Ding might not believe it, but the Taiyuan family did.

So Xu Ding and Cao Cao left Jinyang City and headed west, receiving warm welcome and hospitality from all the cities and counties along the way.

After all, Xu Ding and the others are going to regain Xihe County, which is tantamount to building a barrier to the west of them. Can you not be enthusiastic?

Especially when it came to Pingtao and the Zi family, the local aristocratic families sent out guides one after another, sending all the information about Xihe County, and even secretly stuffed a map of Xihe County.

You must know that Ding Yuan, who is the governor, does not have a map of Xihe County.

And the map in Xu Ding's hands can be described in detail, which made Xu Ding and Cao couldn't help but think to themselves, what do these guys want to do, what do they do with such a clear map of Lin County?

It's not surprising that the aristocratic family has maps of their own county, because they want to survive, but it's a bit taboo for you to make maps of other states and counties.

According to the official statement, only the government can draw and hold maps, and ordinary people are not allowed to keep them privately. However, the unspoken rule defaults that they can secretly engage in their own county or county. Basically, it is not allowed to do so if it is as large as the state or beyond the county. .

Because it has crossed the line, this will arouse the vigilance and counterattack of other counties and states.

Of course, the aristocratic families in the two counties did not dare to say that it belonged to them, but made a fuss, saying that a certain family in Xihe County was willing to donate it for free, hoping that Xu Ding and others can regain Xihe as soon as possible.

Xu Ding and the two didn't point it out, they readily accepted it, and then studied the map of Xihe County to formulate a strategy.

Cao Cao looked at the map of Xihe County and asked, "Bokang, do we really have to wait until Ding Yuan arrives in Wuyuan County before dispatching troops?"

Xu Ding shook his head and said, "Of course not. If Ding Yuan were to go to Wuyuan County, the Huns in Xihe County would have heard the news and made preparations."

"Take a rest for a day or two, wait for our army's spies to find out the situation in Xihe, and then send troops immediately. This time, we are not sending troops to recover Xihe County, but mainly to annihilate the enemy. Going north, we will kill the Xiongnu when we encounter them. Love to fight, use the fastest speed to kill from south to north until the Huns come to ask for surrender." Xu Ding finally began to tell the truth at this time.

Cao Cao understood Xu Ding's intention in an instant, and then he suddenly realized why Xu Ding only brought cavalry over. It turned out that he planned to stop killing with killing from the very beginning, using the nomadic method of warfare, supporting war with war, and invincible with looting. host.

So what I said to Ding Yuan to recover Xihe County and the Taiyuan family's promise to recover Xihe are all lies.

From the very beginning, he had no plan to step by step and recover gradually.

It has to be said that Xu Ding's strategy is the most practical, and it is also the fastest to put an end to the turmoil in Bingzhou caused by the turmoil in Youzhou.

But the method is good, but Cao Cao is a little frowning.

"Bokang! All of you have horses, but I don't have any of those strong men gathered halfway?" Cao Cao said with a headache.

Xu Ding smiled and said, "Meng De, look at the Huns we attacked in Xihe County, shouldn't they come one by one to defend and one to attack?"

Another attack and one defense.

After Cao Cao realized it, his face became even more bitter.

"Bokang, can you change someone? I want to gallop north. You see, I even brought out Zilian, Zixiao, Miaocai, and Yuanrang, and I also have other warriors on my side, such as Gong Liu, Shixin, and Po. Wait a minute, everyone can count as ten, and we won't hold back." Cao Cao begged, he really didn't want to separate from Xu Ding.

Xu Ding patted Cao Cao on the shoulder and said, "It's because Meng De, the people you bring are all warriors, and they are all heroes who can be counted as ten or even hundreds. I believe that you can firmly attract the attention of the Huns, so that you can bear the burden. Let's take back the great banner of Xihe County."

In the words of later generations, it is Cao Cao attracting monsters and Xu Ding violently equipped.

"Bokang, you really think so, you are really complimenting me." Cao Cao couldn't laugh or cry, and seemed to be a little drifting.

Cao Cao also had this kind of self-confidence. Although the number of people he led this time was not many, it was much stronger than the thousands of northern troops he had led before.

The two teams are not at the same level.

"Of course, I believe that Meng De has this ability and charm, and he will be able to coordinate our army's actions well." Xu Ding said with certainty.

Cao Cao had no choice but to nod and said: "Okay, then I will take over this important task, but the righteous men of Bokang who came with you need you to do ideological work, I am afraid they will not be willing to stay with me."

These people were really difficult to appease, after all they voted for their own reputation, so Xu Ding had no choice but to explain to these people himself.

Of course, these people disagreed at the beginning, so how could it work if they were asked to follow Cao Cao.

However, after Xu Ding analyzed the situation carefully, and explained the reason for doing so, in the end, as long as Xu Ding really wanted to vote, he could go to Donglai after the end of the Bingzhou Rebellion. Give them a corresponding military rank.

Only in this way can the minds of these people be appeased.

So Xu Ding and Cao Cao were divided into two, and Xu Ding led [-] cavalry to cross the border to Xihe County quietly from the mountains and rivers in the northwest of Pingtao City.

And Cao Cao disguised himself as a large army of 8000 people and entered Xihe County from Zishi through the official road. At the same time, he asked Zishi's family to send [-] private soldiers to follow. The news reached the hands of the Huns on their own initiative.

The Huns in the south of Xihe County heard the news, and they really prepared for the battle, and then they were ready to go in the area of ​​Zhongyang City, waiting for Cao Cao's army.

"Report! My lord, the Huns in the south were all attracted by Cao Cao, and now the area around Lishi and Gaolang is empty, leaving only the old and weak women and children of the Huns who went south."

Xu Ding nodded, and then summoned all the generals to come over and said, "About 2 strong Xiongnu lay down in Zhongyang City, in order to wait for Cao Mengde to enter, and then surround and kill him.

I believe that Mengde will not be fooled recklessly, and he does not have the strength to fight head-on with the Huns. Now he has successfully attracted the main force of the Huns in the south by helping us, so now it is our turn to act. Everyone is ready, whether it is The old and weak, women and children, as long as they are Huns, they will be killed without mercy.

And don't separate from the main force, don't chase the enemy alone, deal with the Xiongnu in the Lishi and Gaolang areas, and immediately go north to Yuanyang and Yuanyin. "

"It's the lord!" Everyone shouted.

There is no mercy for the Huns.

This trip is to kill, keep killing, go to Shuofang, kill to Tianlang Mountain and Jilusai of the Huns.

Sure enough, as the spies reported, there were not many Huns in Lishi and other places. They were all old and weak women and children who had just migrated from the south, and there were a few strong men who stayed behind.

Facing the sudden appearance of Han cavalry, the Huns in these places were all taken aback.
