Chapter 1148 : Chapter five hundred and seventy-two Wuchao fire (1)
Dong Cheng's request for orders puzzled the civil and military officials in the big tent. (⊙﹏⊙⊙﹏⊙) However, after the last expedition with a coffin, no one doubted Dong Cheng's loyalty.
Their confusion has nothing to do with loyalty.
"The soldiers under General Dong's tent are all infantry. How can we follow him without raising an army?" Because of the last siege of the White Horse, Zhang Liao had a good relationship with Dong Cheng and couldn't help but ask.
All the civil and military officials, including Cao Cao, also looked at Dong Cheng in confusion. Xu You's eyes were more special. Is this Dong Cheng? [
Like Lu Bu, he is a domestic slave with three surnames.
Because Dong Cheng had sacrificed his life for many people, Xu You felt very disdainful.
"The general only needs to go with more than a hundred soldiers." Dong Cheng said calmly after hearing this.
"More than a hundred soldiers?" This made everyone even more confused. What role can these more than a hundred people play? It's a bit of a joke.
"This battle is about whether the world will be unified from now on. I just want to experience it personally." Dong Cheng explained with a smile.
I see.
People who were more upright, such as Zhang Liao and Guo Jia, suddenly felt enlightened.
Also like other people with rather dirty thoughts, they could not help but curl their lips in their hearts.
"If you want to get some credit, just say so. Why be so secretive?"
Cao Cao was slightly startled, then looked at Dong Cheng, who looked back calmly. After a moment, Cao Cao nodded and said, "In that case, General Dong, let me go with you."
"Thank you Ming Gong."
Dong Cheng was overjoyed when he heard this and thanked him.
Dong Cheng was actually able to go with him, and countless people looked at Dong Cheng with envy, jealousy, and hatred. Many people regretted why they didn't ask for orders to be deputy generals and go with him first.
But no matter what, Dong Cheng's decision to follow Cao Cao to Wuchao is already nailed on the iron plate.
"Zi He, select five thousand tiger and leopard riders. Follow me to Wuchao." After allowing Dong Cheng to follow, Cao Cao turned his head and ordered to Cao Chun.
"promise."
Cao Chun promised.
Immediately afterwards, Cao Cao took a deep breath and said: "This is a matter of life and death. If anyone dares to leak even half of it, don't blame me for being ruthless."
"promise."[
All the civil and military officials were awe-inspiring and agreed.
At this moment, there is still some time before it gets dark.
Cao Chun went down first to prepare troops and horses, and most of the other civil and military personnel left. Only a few people such as Cao Cao and Dong Cheng remained.
Soon after, it started to get dark.
About an hour later, Cao Cao took a deep breath and said to Dong Cheng: "General Chariot and Cavalry, are you ready?"
"General, I can't wait any longer." Dong Cheng replied with a smile.
"Everything in the camp will be left to you." Cao Cao nodded, then turned to Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, Xia Houyuan, Cao Hong and others and said.
"Promise." Everyone solemnly agreed.
Cao Cao then stood up and walked out of the Chinese army's tent with Dong Cheng. Outside the tent, Cao Chun had already prepared five thousand tiger and leopard cavalry.
"Ming Gong mounts up."
Cao Chun bowed and saluted.
"Um."
Cao Cao nodded and got on his horse. Dong Cheng also led more than a hundred soldiers and got on his horse to follow Cao Cao.
Soon after, five thousand tiger and leopard cavalry disguised as Yuan's army, each carrying a bunch of firewood and a horse with a title, went into the dark night under the leadership of Cao Cao, Cao Chun, and Dong Cheng.
Take the path and head towards Wuchao.
Of course, they were questioned by many Yuan Jun generals along the way, but because of Xu You's early warning and Cao Cao's adaptability, everything was resolved.
