Chapter 101

Liu Yisi cabled: "the court sent brother mengde to supervise the battle. There are still more than 4000 Yuzhou troops. Someone sent someone to Xiangzhao. We will arrive soon."

Cao Cao touched his hands and laughed: "Yu Qing is considerate and considerate. If you have Yu Qing to help you, you can get Huaiyin marquis."

He had already sent people to the general camp of the Yuzhou army, and after a while some people continued to arrive. They entered the camp and sat on the left and right according to the previous seats.

Liu Ye asks Chen Yi to sit at the left head and himself to the right. Cao Cao stood in the middle with a helmet and armor and a long sword hanging from his waist. The two XiahouDun and XiaHouYuan were on the left and one on the right, which seemed to protect the Dharma gods.

Cao Cao bowed his hand: "Cao knows that his qualifications are very shallow, far from being able to command generals. However, the imperial court Committee has a heavy responsibility, and dare not waste state affairs. Please obey your orders. "

Liu Ye takes a timely step forward and says: "brother Meng De is a man of letters and martial arts. I admire him very much. We will obey him."

Although Cao Cao led his army to help, he was only a cavalry captain. On the one hand, he did not have a high record in the war. On the other hand, he did not have enough prestige. Therefore, the generals of the Yuzhou army inevitably complained. However, seeing Liu Ye come forward, they are all blood alliance with Liu Ye yesterday, so they can't go back.

The generals looked at each other and stood with their hands arched: "we are willing to listen to the command of Duwei."

Cao Cao nods and turns to look at Liu Ye. Liu Ye claps his hands. Outside the camp, four soldiers come in. Two people in front of him put down a table, and the other two put down a sand table.

The generals of Yuzhou army were stunned when they saw the sand table in front of them. Chen Yi, in particular, is staring at the sand table with joy and surprise on her face.

"Gentlemen, this was made by Yu Qing, who gathered sand and soil into mountains and rivers, so it was named sand table."

Cao Cao repeated what Liu Ye had just said and explained to the generals of the Yuzhou army the wonderful use of sand tables and what the yellow and red flags represent.

"The food and fodder of the Yellow turban thieves is in the East camp. Tomorrow, all the generals will follow me to fight the Yellow turban thieves. Our army will camp step by step to defend instead of attacking."

The red flag was picked up and gently placed in front of the yellow flag.

"Our army only needs to deal with it calmly. When the Yellow turban bandits' morale is exhausted, Yu Qing leads the sharp soldiers to fight out and head for the East camp!"

Cao Cao then took out a small red flag from the side and inserted it directly in the East camp, which stood out among the yellow flags.

Chen Yi frowned: "if our army burns the food and grass of the Yellow turban thief, it only fears that the Yellow turban thief will fight a trapped animal. What can we do then?"

After all, there are a hundred thousand yellow turban thieves. If there is no food and grass. If Liu Ye burns all the food and grass, will he not fall into a tight encirclement?

The generals can't help but look at Liu Ye. Although he is brave and invincible, he is flesh and blood after all. It is impossible to defeat a hundred thousand soldiers of yellow scarf thieves with a mere thousand of strength?

Liu Ye did not change his face: "we have a small number of soldiers. If we fight hard, we will lose all our losses. We can't fight against the Yellow turban thieves. We can only take advantage of the opportunity when we burn all the food and grass of the thieves."

Cao Cao said with a smile: "huangfulang will use his troops like a God. When he sees the Yellow turban thief's food and grass being burned, he will certainly go out of the city to meet him. At that time, we will strictly guard against it, and the bandit army will retreat."

After hearing Cao Cao's arrangement and Liu Ye's analysis, the generals of Yuzhou army admired and moved.

"Liu junhou doesn't care about this body. How can I put this head in my heart tomorrow?"

"Yes, we will live and die together after drinking blood wine."

When Cao Cao saw that all the generals around him were excited, he could not help laughing: "the heart of the army is available! I'll give you to the soldiers tonight in order to break down the Yellow turban thief. "

Although drinking was not allowed in the army, only a few pigs and sheep in the army were killed to eat meat. All the soldiers ate meat and drank thick broth.

The army has always been hard, even at home, it is difficult to eat meat every day, let alone march outside. This night, pigs and sheep were slaughtered, and 7000 soldiers and soldiers cheered with joy. Instead of eating on his own, Liu Ye sat down with his troops, took out a bowl of pork from the pot, and sat on the ground and shared it with the soldiers. And Licheng army has long been used to eating, but Cao Cao was surprised.

"Does Yuqing eat with the soldiers in ordinary days

Because tomorrow he will have a bloody battle with the Yellow turban thieves, so Cao Cao simply brings a bowl to Liu Ye's side. As a result, he comes to Liu Ye's camp, only to find that Liu Ye is not in the camp. Then he knows that Liu Ye actually eats with the soldiers.

Liu Ye casually picked up a chopstick of mutton: "if you eat the same food, you will be able to be one heart. If the generals and soldiers are of the same heart, you will be invincible."

If Cao Cao had some understanding, he took his bowl and sat beside Liu Ye.

"What Yu Qing said is very true. Eating with the soldiers, the meat is very fragrant." Cao Cao ate the soup and water in his stomach, which made him happy.

"Yu Qing, you have a heavy burden tomorrow. Be careful." Cao Cao's face was cautious. "By the way, Miao is my younger brother. His archery is very good. Tomorrow he will follow you."

Xia Houyuan stepped forward: "I would like to fight with Liu junhou."

When Liu Ye looks up, he sees that Xia Houyuan is beautiful, his ape arms are long and powerful, and his fingertips have been worn out thick cocoons by pulling bowstring. He can see that he is a good shooter.Many of the great generals of the three kingdoms were good at archery. In fact, shooting and imperial were one of the six skills of a gentleman. During this period, the literati wore long swords on their waists, which was not for decoration. They were all proficient in martial arts and could ride horses and shoot arrows. For example, Xu Shu in Yingchuan had been a knight errant in his early years and was proficient in swordsmanship.

All literati can shoot arrows, so it's not necessary to say much about the generals in the army. LV Fengxian shoots halberds and Zhao Zilong shoots down the sails. However, to say that the most powerful archery must be veteran Huang Zhong. However, Xia Houyuan, as his opponent, is also proficient in archery, and can even be said to be the first good archer in the Cao Wei camp.

Liu Ye smiles: "if you have wonderful talents to help you, tomorrow will be a big point."

Cao Cao not only assigned Xia Houyuan to Liu Ye, but also assigned the only 500 cavalry in the army to Liu Ye's 200 horses. As a result, Liu Ye's army had 700 cavalry soldiers, 500 infantry soldiers, a total of 1200 people.

Time passed quickly, and after a night of silence, the next day came.

The autumn morning was chilly and chilly, but the 7000 Han troops outside the city were boiling with blood.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The drum drummer with big arms and round waist swung his drumstick and knocked on the cow leather covered drum, making a thumping sound, which spread out in the air like an invisible ripple, adding a trace of coolness to the autumn morning.

The barracks were empty, with 7000 Han troops marching out in the open field, and the white breath from the nostrils of Han soldiers was hazy.
