Chapter 144 Treating a person's body in his own way
"His grandma! Which play did Cao Wenyao sing? He came to fight Mianchi, but he came here and made a posture of a shrinking turtle. Is he coming to beat us or waiting for us to beat him? Li Yantian stood on the hill angrily and watched Cao Wenyao's barracks below with Liu Bao's telescope.
Liu Bao took the telescope with a smile and looked at Cao Wenyao's barracks, and then patted Li Yantian on the shoulder and walked down the hill.
"Cao Wenyao is a smart man. He knows that this time his troops are coming to collect the pool, he is simply delivering food to us! But don't come. There is a suspicion of disrespecting the order, and you can't beat it, so it's simply a bad thing. When you get here, you will huddle in the camp. Maybe you want to wait and see the limelight and wait for Shaanxi to send reinforcements!" Liu Bao said to Li Yantian as he walked.
"So let's just look at him blocked here. Can't we go up or down?" Li Yantian was full of energy and wanted to make achievements, but when he came here, he had no place to use his strength. How could he not be in a hurry?
Liu Bao shook his head and said, "Brother Li, don't worry. Cao Wenyao doesn't dare to fight. It doesn't mean that we are spending time with him here!" This guy is also a cunning guy. Although he doesn't move here, he is not idle. Let's wait for another two days to see what this guy is moving! I don't think this man will be so willing to lie here! I'm sure I'll come up with a bad idea!"
Although Li Yantian wanted to fight, Liu Bao had the final say. He had to listen to Liu Bao's instructions, so he could only nod and agree, but he was still a little unwilling to discuss with Liu Bao whether to give the officer a night attack or something.
"I'm afraid it won't work! If Cao Wenyao first came here, there is still a possibility of success for us to give him, but now it seems that the opportunity has been missed. You know that when Cao Wenyao first came to Henan, Yao had come to him this time. This guy must have learned a lesson. If he wants to deal with him by night attack again, I guess It's hard to get things done! Brother Li, don't be so anxious. Since you are the battalion commander now, are you afraid that there is no war to fight? Don't worry, there will be a war for you in the future. Our marshal has already said that after we finish the court, we will go back to clean up the Jiannu in the north. The days of the war are long! Ha ha!" Liu Bao shook his head and rejected Li Yantian's suggestion and continued to persuade.
After hearing this, Li Yantian only agreed and followed Liu Bao back to the mountain pass camp.
What Liu Bao expected is actually true. Although Cao Wenyao did not dare to commit a light attack on the mountain pass, it does not mean that he has no idea at all. In addition to the strengthening of the fortifications of the camp, he has also kept sending out night to inquire nearby these days.
After another two days passed, Liu Bao suddenly recruited Li Yantian into his account and said to Li Yantian, "I said Brother Li!" It seems that I got it this time. Cao Wenyao is really not funny. I'm really not idle!
In the past two days, the scouts have found a lot of night sent by Cao Wenyao in the north. When I wandered around the Yellow River, I thought that the thing surnamed Cao was going to play tricks! Sure enough, today, our scouts arrested two Cao Wenyao at night. After a good fight, the two goods were poured out like beans!
It turned out that Cao Wenyao did not intend to attack here at all, but decided to take advantage of the opportunity of the lack of water in the Yellow River from the Yellow River to bypass this area and rush to the pond to catch us off guard! Hey hey! Now we have a job to do!"
Li Yantian became energetic as soon as he heard it. He immediately asked Liu Bao in Henan dialect, "Brother Liu, tell me quickly, how can we clean up that thing? This turtle grandson is too rampant! Can't we be fools?"
"Of course, I can't let go of this grandson! I called you over today to discuss this matter with you. Cao Wenyao has planned to lead troops to attack Mianchi County from the north tomorrow night. I plan to do this..." Liu Bao and Li Yantian told his plan in detail.
Li Yantian's face collapsed as soon as he heard it, but Liu Bao's words were also good. There was always someone to stare at him, so he had to salute and obey Liu Bao's instructions.
Liu Bao laughed and said, "Don't worry, buddy, I know what you want!" Don't you just want your reserve battalion to turn into a war camp? After this battle, I, Lao Liu, went to tell the general that I promise to do as you wish! Ha ha! It's up to you!"
Li Yantian smiled happily as soon as he heard this. The depression just now suddenly swept away. He smiled so that the black face was invisible. Even he said yes, and his shoulders collapsed, and he almost jumped up and hugged Liu Bao and kissed him.
After entering the night, Cao Wenyao dressed neatly. He went out of the big tent and glanced at his generals and asked the general, "What's the situation of the mountain thief army?"
"Your Excellency, there is no movement of the Yamaguchi thief army, or it is still blocked in the mountain pass. I can't see what's the difference!" The boss answered quickly that night.
"So what's the situation in the north?" Cao Wenyao continued to ask.
"A few brothers went to the north this afternoon, and they didn't find any trace of a large number of thieves. The thieves should not have expected that adults would go there!" Ye didn't collect it. He always replied with a little flattering smile. These days, his men's Ye didn't collect losses. Xing Tianjun scattered a lot of bright and dark whistles in this area. He went out for ten nights and didn't accept it. He often could only come back more than half of it, even if it was burning incense, so almost no one is willing to do it now, but he didn't accept it at night. Anyway, I can only hold on with my scalp.
Cao Wenyao nodded and said, "Okay! It seems that the thief army did not expect that this time, the official would also return the person's body in his own way. If the order goes on, the selected people will gather immediately! Fight with me! Remember, give me the title of a horse to pick the bell! Don't make noise or raise fire when you go out of the camp! If anyone is bad to me, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
The generals quickly responded to their orders and went down one after another to prepare. Half an hour later, Cao Wenyao personally led more than a thousand officers and soldiers. They carefully went out of the camp without raising fire. Everyone held their breath and trotted with the people in front of them and quickly disappeared into the night.
Cao Wenyao chose this day is also good. There is a moon in the sky. Don't worry too much about not being able to see the road if you don't raise the torch on the road, and the selected soldiers with good physical quality are also. There is no night blindness, so I followed a few people to explore the way back under the moonlight all the way to the Yellow River. Touch it.
Liu Bao lay in the grass and silently calculated the time. At this time, the temperature at night was so low that it was almost freezing. There was a layer of cold dew on his helmet, but he didn't care. He rubbed his hands and continued to wait.
On the hillside around him, there were many soldiers of the Xingtian Army, who, like him, endured the piercing cold and persisted.
"It's been four days! It's almost time to come! It's not Cao Wenyao's temporary change of gossip! Or did you find us?" An officer who followed Liu Bao squatted beside Liu Bao and whispered to him.
"Wait honestly whether he comes or not. It's better for him to come. If he doesn't come, just think of it as if we come out to practice at night this time! What? Can't help it?"
"Hey hey! If so, isn't it a little cold? We didn't suffer anything before when we were exiled! It's hard to calculate now! Just listen to you and wait! Damn, Cao Wenyao didn't come earlier! Hurry up and clean up this person so that you can have a good sleep when you go back! Ha ha!"
"Stop talking nonsense! Go back and see if your brothers are asleep! Don't let the mother of someone fall asleep and snore. I just heard someone snoring in the north! If anyone exposes us, I will break his leg and let him go back to sleep enough!"
"Yes..." The company commander opened the grass and touched the place where his men were lurking.
Liu Bao looked at the moon in the sky, sighed and shook his head and said to himself, "It's time to come!" Why hasn't it appeared yet?"
But as soon as he finished his words, he heard a sound from under the hillside not far away. As soon as Liu Bao turned over, he got up and rushed to the slope and looked down.
With the help of the moonlight, Liu Baoguo really saw a team of people and horses that were also covered with dew on their bodies, and gradually began to enter his ambush circle.
Liu Bao was finally relieved. He kicked a soldier next to him. The soldier immediately put his hand to his mouth and immediately made a few vivid pheasant calls.
Shortly after he learned how to crow, frogs and night owls also came from several highlands around him. Liu Bao was completely relieved. He reached out and pulled a self-made fire gun from his side. With the help of the moonlight, he checked the gunpowder in the medicine pool, and then covered the lid of the medicine pool and clicked gently. He pulled the head stuck on the flint and reached out to stretch out the self-made fire from the hillside.
At the same time, from several hillsides, they began to make a slight sound, and a pole of self-fire was stretched out by the fire hands and aimed at the path below.
Cao Wenyao, who was walking in the center of the team, felt very nervous all the way, and there seemed to be an ominous feeling, but he couldn't tell where this ominous feeling came from, so he could only supervise the team and rush all the way forward.
When he walked to this section of the path near the Yellow River, nothing happened in half an hour, which made him feel more or less at ease. According to the leading night, he went out of the mountain through this section. At that time, he led these generals and suddenly appeared behind the thief's army before dawn. No matter how powerful the thief army is, it will be scared to death. Once the fight starts, under the attack on both sides, if the thief army wants to be undefeated, it is impossible at all. If you defeat this thief army, then Mianchi County is equivalent to his blade, so his chances of winning this battle is still quite considerable, but the premise is the thief army. He didn't expect this sneak attack.
On this road, Cao Wenyao also kept sending night to explore the road. At the same time, he also paid great attention to the situation on the high ground on the side of the road ahead. When he passed through several dangerous places, he was so nervous that he was afraid that the ambush of the thief army would be ambushed. But in the end, he passed those places safely. Now that he has come here, he is finally about to get out of the mountain. He, but almost all the officers and soldiers who followed him also began to relax a little.
Suddenly there were a few pheasant calls on the hillside on the right, and then there was the cry of the night owl. On the way, they were already used to the sound of this kind of night birds, so no one paid much attention to this sound. At least the chirping of these night birds showed that there would be no one on the mountain, otherwise There will be no night bird screaming like this. It has been blown away for a long time.
So Cao Wenyao continued to urge the horse to go, but after walking for a while, he suddenly grabbed the rein and asked a family who followed him, "Did you hear the frog singing just now?"
This family man was a little confused. After being stuped for a while, he suddenly nodded and said, "It seems that there is a frog! I don't really listen to it!"
"Withdraw! The back team becomes the front team and retreats! Let's go!" Cao Wenyao suddenly broke the silence of the team and didn't care so much. He shouted and turned the horse's head. His voice immediately tore through the whole night sky, which surprised all the soldiers who followed him. It was not Cao Wenyao's alertness, but that Liu Bao's men had just made a common sense mistake. Now it's ten. It's the end of the month, and the weather is already very cold. How can there be frogs moving outside? Therefore, a frog call attracted Cao Wenyao's attention, which made Cao Wenyao realize that there was a great possibility of ambushing the auxiliary soldiers of the thief army here, so he immediately and decisively ordered to turn around and retreat.
