Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

After Xiahoudun's plot was seen through, he was logically flanked by Chen Ji and Ji Ling's two armies, and finally fled in defeat. He did not regain his foothold until he retreated to Qiao County.

"Most of the [-] soldiers and horses were lost... Excluding the wounded, there are less than [-] soldiers who can still participate in the battle." After Xun You reported the tragic situation of his army, he couldn't help but sighed deeply.

He wasn't annoyed that Xiahou Dun didn't listen to his persuasion, but because of this defeat, they almost handed over all their initiative to Yuan Shu.

Xiahou Dun also knew that he had made a serious mistake. Now he no longer had the defiant look he had when he first arrived. He acted cautiously and thoughtfully, but he gradually gained the demeanor of a famous general.

"Military Master, our army's scouts came to report, and Ji Ling led [-] soldiers and horses to set up camp [-] miles away from our army." Having said this, Xiahou Dun showed apology on his face, and said, "It's because I didn't listen to the military adviser's dissuasion... "

"Victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs, and generals don't need to blame themselves too much..." After a sentence of comfort, Xun You began to analyze the current situation with Xiahou Dun and the generals in the tent, "Although our army was defeated, the overall situation It has not reached the point of no return."

Seeing that everyone seemed to be a little relieved, Xun You continued: "However, our army's ability to contain the current situation has been lost. Ji Ling and Chen Ji must have an army to support Qiao Rui. The longer the time drags on, the more the Lord will face. There will be more pressure."

Xiahou Dun's face was solemn, and he asked in a low tone: "Dare to ask the military division, can we seek reinforcements?"

Xun You shook his head and said, "Dongjun and other places need to guard against Yuan Shao's inability to move easily.

Going out of Dongjun, now only Chenliu, Xuchang and Wancheng still have a surplus of troops, but it takes a long time to ask for help, and the lord may not be able to wait anymore. "

The corners of Xiahou Dun's eyes twitched slightly, and he asked unwillingly, "Then what else can I do?"

Xun You looked calm and said calmly: "Yuan Shu sent nearly [-] soldiers under his command to conquer Xuzhou, and the food and grass they need every day must be a huge amount.

Although there was surplus food in Xiaopei City, it was not enough to support the [-] troops of Ji Ling and Chen Ji, so Yuan Shu must transport food and grass from Yuzhou to Xuzhou's army.

I intend to send a general to go deep into the food road of Duan Jiling's army south of Xiaopei.

If we can cut off the food and grass of his army along the way, the change we are looking for will come! "

Xiahou Dun pondered for a moment, then nodded and replied, "What the military adviser said is true, who in our army dares to go deep behind the enemy to cut off the grain road?"

When he said the latter sentence, Xiahou Dun said it while looking at the generals in the big tent, and his meaning was already obvious.

Going deep into the enemy's rear to cut off the food road, not only is it isolated and helpless, but it may be discovered by the enemy at any time, and then beaten to death.

However, the risk is directly proportional to the benefit. If the enemy's food can be successfully cut off, Xuzhou's merits in this battle will at least be enough.

Although they knew that this trip would be dangerous, none of Cao Jun's generals flinched.

But there was one person who stood up ahead of all the generals, "The last general is willing to cut off the food supply of Ji Ling's army!"

Xiahoudun saw that this person was eight feet long and had a face like a jujube. It was General Yamen, Wei Yan, whom Cao Cao transferred from Chen Liuzheng and put under him to practice!

After Wei Yan competed with Xu Chu and Dian Wei, Cao Cao tested his art of war, battle formation and the like.

Both of them are adventurers who like to surprise soldiers, and after a long conversation, they hit it off, wishing they had known each other for ten years earlier.

Cao Cao intended to train Wei Yan, so this operation specially transferred him from Chen Liuzheng to Xiahou Dun's subordinates to practice.

As long as Wei Yan can make contributions in this battle, Cao Cao will immediately entrust him with a heavy responsibility and train him as a great future who will be on his own.

But Wei Yan has only 500 people under him, and most of the time they are confronting the enemy, so there are not many opportunities to show off.

Xiahoudun still couldn't figure out Wei Yan's true ability. At this moment, he seemed a little hesitant.

After about ten breaths,

Just when Xiahou Dun was hesitating whether to switch to Le Jin, whom he was more familiar with, a clear voice suddenly came from outside: "If you are Wen Chang, you will definitely be able to complete the important task of cutting off the grain road!"

"what?!"

Everyone here is familiar with the voice of the visitor.

Xiahou Dun, Xun You, Wei Yan and others were only quite surprised when they heard this voice, but Xu Huang shivered suddenly and shouted: "It's Lu Huanqi! Lu Huanqi is here!!! "

Back then, the scene where Lu Yan broke through a thousand riders alone was too shocking.

Xu Huang was just a few meters away from Lu Yan at that time, so he was personally on the scene, so he was naturally very impressed.

To this day, when Xu Huang dreams, he occasionally replays the exciting scene in his dreams.

There were even several times when the main character who faced Qianqi in his dream and calmly defeated him became himself...

Lu Yan walked in from the tent opened by Xiahou Dun's personal guards, followed by Huang Zhong with gray temples.

Seeing Lu Yan suddenly, all the generals including Xiahou Dun showed joyful expressions on their faces.

Only Xun You looked at Lu Yan and Huang Zhong with a thoughtful expression.

Cao Cao did not write a separate letter to Xiahou Dun, but gave Lu Yan all the rights to appoint and dismiss, and asked Lu Yan to punish Xiahou Dun on his behalf.

Lu Yan came to the middle of the big tent, looked at Xiahou Dun, and said softly: "Mr. Cao has an order, and Lu Yan will take over Xiahou Dun's department."

In the big tent, it suddenly became quiet, and everyone's eyes were on Xiahou Dun who was sitting in the main seat.

Xiahou Dun may have had a premonition of something. When Lu Yan gave Cao Cao's order, he walked down without saying a word, without the slightest hesitation, and said to Lu Yan with his fists cupped: "The criminal will take orders!"

Lu Yan nodded, and then said to Xiahou Dun: "Mr. Cao said that rewards and punishments should be clearly defined. You underestimated the enemy and rushed forward this time, so you were defeated. Therefore, Mr. Cao asked me to take him to punish you."

Xiahou Dun took a deep breath and replied, "The guilty general is willing to accept any punishment!"

"Okay!" Seeing that Xiahou Dun was still serious, Lu Yan's expression turned serious, and he said, "I'll punish you for copying plain scriptures and six secret teachings fifty times each!"

call!Xiahou Dun raised his head suddenly, with a look of disbelief in his eyes.

After a long time, he murmured: "Changsheng... why don't you hit me with eighty sticks!"

Chapter 96 Huang Zhong, looks weak

"Eighty army sticks?" Facing Xiahou Dun's request, Lu Yan shook his head lightly, and replied with a smile: "No, I will never beat anyone if I copy the book as promised. I, Lu, have always Convincing people and not abusing violence."

Xiahou Dun and Lu Yan are old acquaintances, so they don't have so many etiquette and scruples when talking.

"To be honest, I'd rather you beat me up..." Xiahou Dun leaned close to Lu Yan with a sullen face, and said.

"Will beating you up bring the dead brothers back to life?" Lu Yan asked softly.

"But you can't copy books!" Xiahoudun still wanted to continue struggling.

"But at least it will make you less likely to make such low-level mistakes when you lead an army to fight again in the future!"

Lu Yan's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Xiahou Dun's heart hard.

Xiahou Dun's face flushed immediately, and a feeling of shame and humiliation suddenly emerged in his heart.

After being silent for a while, Xiahoudun let out a long breath and said, "I understand, Sushu and Liutao each fifty times, right? I'll copy it for you when I get back!"

"Well, the time limit is one month." Lu Yan nodded slightly.

Xiahoudun's mentality has been adjusted. After taking a deep breath, he clasped his fists and said, "Here!"

After punishing Xiahou Dun, Lu Yan has completed all the pre-tasks assigned by Boss Cao, and the next step is how to change the current battle situation.

Lu Yan's punishment of Xiahou Dun was not severe, and there was no trace of blood and tyranny.

But the strange thing is that the eyes of everyone present looking at Lu Yan became even more awed.

After bowing his hands and saluting with Xun You, Lu Yan walked to the main seat and sat down.

Xiahou Dun stood at the front of the line of generals, but he didn't show his displeasure for a long time.

It is a status quo that everyone recognizes that Lu Yan, who has already achieved a great reputation, came to take over, and because of Lu Yan's arrival, their confidence is even stronger.

After Lu Yan nodded to Xun You and Xiahou Dun, he said:

"Gongda's previous task of going deep into the enemy's rear to cut off their food routes requires a brave, cautious and flexible general. And I think General Yamen Wei Yan is the most suitable candidate for this!"

When Wei Yan heard that Lu Yan stood up for him again, his heart was filled with emotion, "When I was in Changsha, I was not only squeezed out by my colleagues, but also suppressed by my superiors everywhere. I was so depressed.

After coming to Chenliu, Lu Huqi was like my old friend for many years, knowing me and trusting me, he promoted me.

What I didn't even expect was that Taiwei Cao had very similar thoughts and ideas on using soldiers as I did. After some in-depth discussions, he also placed high hopes on me! "

Lu Yan didn't know what Wei Yan was thinking right now, seeing him pondering, he thought he was thinking about his next course of action.

"Wei Yan, you and I, with five hundred cavalry, harassed and even cut off Ji Ling's army's supply road, can you complete the task?" Lu Yan asked seriously.

The five hundred cavalry are already all the cavalry in Xiahou Dun's hands now.

Hearing this, Wei Yan took a deep breath, knelt on one knee and cupped his fists and said, "The final general vows to live up to the expectations of the Hussar General!"

"Go, I know you have been suppressed for too long, it's time to show your true ability!"

"Here!" Wei Yan said no more, turned around and strode towards the big tent of the Chinese army.

Stepping out of the big tent, the outside is bright and bright!

Wei Yan's footsteps paused for a moment, he looked up at the clear sky, and muttered to himself with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "At the beginning you ignored me, but after today, I will make you unable to climb up!"

Wei Yan left, and the big tent continued to discuss the plan to deal with Ji Ling.

Seeing that Lu Yan followed his strategy, Xun You was also relieved.Although he didn't know Wei Yan's ability, but seeing Lu Yan's full confidence, he could only let Wei Yan go.

After deliberating for a moment, Xun You said to Lu Yan: "Lu Hussar, shall we go out to the battle to attract Ji Lingjun's attention and cover for General Wei?"

"Yes." Lu Yan nodded in response, then grinned at the corner of his mouth, and said, "It happens that Ji Ling doesn't know the news of my arrival yet, so we can take this opportunity to kill some of his generals!"

But now it was close to noon, it was only reasonable to fill the stomach first.

"Pass down the order and order the soldiers to bury the pot and make food, and then go out to fight Ji Ling after they are full!"

"Here!"

......

After eating, Lu Yan changed into the armor of General Cao Jun, and then led the army out of his camp to fight in front of Jiling Camp.

Not to mention, Lu Yan, who looks very weak in his scribes shirt, has a more heroic and decisive feeling after wearing the armor.

When Ji Ling heard that Cao Jun went out of the camp uncharacteristically to fight, he wondered in his heart: "Xiahou Pifu lost a lot of soldiers at the beginning, and he has been unable to retreat since then. Why did he come out of the camp abnormally today to fight? Could it be that he has other plans? ?”

But thinking that Xiahoudun only had a few thousand soldiers capable of fighting under his command, Ji Ling happily bumped into Xiahoudun again, "No matter what the plot is, as long as you take down the leader of the bandit, everything will be in vain!"

After making up his mind, Ji Ling said in a deep voice, "Come on, let's fight against the enemy!"

Ji Ling led several generals under his command to lead troops out to face Cao Jun.

Before the battle, Lu Yan raised his right hand to cover his forehead, watching Ji Ling open the gate of the camp from a distance.

The gate opened, and Ji Ling took the lead, personally leading more than ten thousand troops to the front of the formation.

When the battle line was opened, Ji Ling rode forward and shouted loudly, "Xiahoupifu, isn't the previous defeat bad enough? How dare you dare to challenge before the battle?"

Xiahou Dun shrank his neck and glanced at Lu Yan, as if he was a little afraid of being mentioned again about his previous failure.

Lu Yan obviously didn't turn his head, but he seemed to know Xiahou Dun's expression and movements, and he couldn't help teasing and said, "What's the matter? A defeat has knocked you out of your spirit?"

"How is it possible! How can I, Xiahoudun, be someone who can't afford to lose?" Xiahoudun patted his chest with a "bangbang sound", as if not doing so was not enough to prove his bloodliness, "I'm going to challenge him now, and I have to kill him Seven or eight generals, otherwise it will be difficult to dispel the hatred in my heart!"

After Xiahou Dun finished speaking, he was about to call for battle immediately, but Lu Yan stopped him and said, "Don't go. If you go, I'm afraid only Ji Ling dares to fight."

Xun You saw that Xiahou Dun was very puzzled, so he explained for him: "The purpose of our challenge is not only to attract General Wei's attention, but also to weaken the enemy's strength.

What Lu Hushi meant was that in this situation, it would be best to send an unknown or even weaker person to challenge, the effect would be the best. "

After saying this, Xun You, Xu Huang, Le Jin, Xiahou Dun and Lu Yan all looked at Huang Zhong in unison.

"???" Huang Zhong's heart broke down, "What? Do I look weak?"

With gray temples and a haggard complexion, if he hadn't been stronger and wearing general-style armor, Huang Zhong would have looked like an ordinary farmer who had experienced the vicissitudes of life...

Chapter 97 The old soldier shows off his power!

Huang Zhong's selling direction seems to be quite weak, but Lu Yan feels that there is still room for improvement.

So, Lu Yan half-jokingly suggested: "Han Sheng, why don't you take off your armor and go challenge again?"

Huang Zhong had seen Ji Ling on the opposite side and several generals around him before, and the strongest one was Ji Ling, a quasi-first-class general.

After hearing Lu Yan's words, Huang Zhong took off the armor on his body without saying a word, leaving only the close-fitting coarse linen clothes inside.

"It looks so weak..." Xiahou Dun's eyes twitched, and he asked, "Changsheng, where did you find the best product? Can he do it?"

After Lu Yan looked Xiahou Dun up and down, he chuckled and said, "Can you see his strength?"

"I can't tell, he makes me feel like an ordinary person..." Xiahou Dun replied honestly.

"Then can you see my strength?" Lu Yan asked again.

"Er...it seems to me that you are just an ordinary person..." When Xiahou Dun said this, he obviously lacked confidence.

"Then it's over!" Lu Yan muttered and ignored Xiahou Dun.

He turned to look at Huang Zhong, nodded slightly and said, "Han Sheng, don't be too aggressive at the beginning, so that you can catch more enemy generals."
