Cao Yu and Chen Tai spent half an hour on the road, and finally missed a step and lost the opportunity to attack Wei Ba. What greeted them was a solid position. At this point, there was no use regretting it, so they had to temporarily retreat ten miles to the nearest place.
Monitor Wei Ba.
Watching the Wei army come and go, Wei Ba breathed a sigh of relief. So far, he has seized this time difference. The strategic goal of the first step has been achieved. The next step is how to hold off Cao Yu and give Ma Di a chance.
It was a matter of forcibly crossing the turbulent water and seizing the city of Li.
Wei Ba ordered the entire army to rest. The soldiers worked hard all night, and some even worked all day and night. They were already exhausted. If they didn't take a good rest, they would not have the physical strength to face tomorrow's battle.
The torches in the camp were extinguished one by one, and calm returned to both sides of the rushing water. Wei Ba did not rest. He left Wei Wu to guard the camp and came to the camp on the west bank.
Guan Feng was lying on the couch, not resting yet. When she heard Wei Ba's footsteps, she quickly sat up.
"You don't have to get up." Wei Ba gently pressed her shoulder and said softly: "You have worked hard these days, have a good sleep. As long as I am here, nothing will happen to you."
Guan Feng relaxed her body and lay down, but still refused to sleep. She looked at Wei Ba with two bloodshot eyes. Wei Ba smiled, touched her face, raised her feet and said with a smile: "Let me wash it."
I will accompany you again, otherwise, I will ruin you."
Guan Feng laughed and sniffed. "In the military camp, there is no one who doesn't have lice or bedbugs on his body. What's weird about the smell." But even though she said this, she still let go of Wei Ba. Wei Ba was beaten.
The water came, right in the tent, under Guan Feng's nose. He took a quick bath and then got into bed.
After getting into Wei Ba's arms, Guan Feng took a long breath and relaxed her whole body. She snuggled into Wei Ba's chest, listened to Wei Ba's strong heartbeat, and quickly fell asleep.
.
The next day, when Guan Feng opened his eyes, he saw a bright ray of sunshine coming in from the outside. Guan Feng subconsciously sat up and reached out to lift the quilt. Wei Ba was sitting in front of the desk, hurriedly leaning over it.
Shu. Hearing her voice, Wei Ba turned his head, glanced at her, and said with a smile: "Don't be anxious, just sleep a little longer. I'll have people make porridge, and you'll be fine soon."
Guan Feng exclaimed: "When is it?"
"At three o'clock in the morning."
"Ah, how did I sleep until now?" Guan Feng said, a blush fluttering across his face. When Wei Ba saw it, he couldn't help but be in a trance. He looked at Guan Feng infatuatedly and forgot to speak. Guan Feng glared at him shyly.
He glanced at it, but did not get up. He lay down hugging the quilt and rubbed his eyes lazily. "What are you writing?"
"Oh." Wei Ba finally came to his senses, sat back again, and raised the pen in his hand: "I will write a letter of war to Cao Yu and ask him to decide the outcome here. You can sleep a little longer, I
There are still a few words left to write."
"You asked him for a decisive battle?" Guan Feng chuckled: "Could Cao Yu be so stupid?"
"He is not stupid, but he wants to get his dignity back from me." Wei Ba said with a smile: "As long as people have desires, they will have flaws. As a member of the Cao clan, he must feel very embarrassed to be captured by me, Cao Rui
That's probably the case, otherwise, he wouldn't have given him elites like the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and the Wuwei Battalion. In this case, if I give him a chance, how could he give up so easily."
"He may want to regain his dignity, but he will not attack your position. Everyone knows that this position is difficult to attack."
"So I want to make him feel that this position is attackable." Wei Ba said, having already finished writing the letter of challenge. He dried the ink and handed it to Guan Feng: "Take a look and see if there is anything you need to add."
Guan Feng took it and took a look, couldn't help laughing, and looked at Wei Ba proudly: "You, your mouth is sharper than a knife. You are not very good at reading, but the scholar's acrimony is not bad at all.
"
Wei Ba laughed loudly: "Since my sister said so, it means that the killing power is enough. I will send someone to Cao Yu now, and then I will wait for my sister Gaosheng, and then help you draw your eyebrows and shave your face. This
You guys are exhausted and don't look very good."
"Fuck you, the dignified General Zhennan, how could you do such a thing?"
"Zhang Chang's eyebrow painting can leave a good story in the "Book of Han". I shaved my wife's face, and maybe I can also make a mark in the history of Qing Dynasty in the future."
Guan Fengjiao smiled and said: "Then I can't bear the criticism from future generations."
…
When Cao Yu received the letter of challenge from Wei Ba, he was eating. After reading the letter of challenge, he had no appetite at all, as if he had eaten a fly.
Wei Ba's words were very polite, but they were full of insidiousness. He first greeted Cao Yu. After being captured alive by me, the king was able to make a comeback. It is commendable for his courage. The tiger and leopard cavalry are the most famous cavalry in the world, and the Wuwei camp is famous in the world.
Infantry, I only have 2,000 cavalry soldiers who have just been trained. I dare not compete with the tiger and leopard cavalry. However, I, Wei Jiawu,
The soldiers are also experienced infantry. I am willing to fight with the Wuwei camp to see who is the strongest infantry in the world. I want to see if the king has any new insights since his last defeat. If the king is willing, I am willing.
Cut off the rapids, leaving only two thousand infantry on the east bank of the rapids. Your Majesty also pushed back the tiger and leopard cavalry, and faced each other with two thousand military guards. Let us decide the outcome.
In his words that seemed to be respectful, Wei Ba's contempt was palpable, and his victor's posture was annoying. But Cao Yu had nothing to say, who knew that he had indeed been captured by others.
While angry, Cao Yu was also a little moved. He really needed a chance to defeat Wei Ba to prove his ability. He believed that although the Wei family's soldiers were elite, they seemed to have no advantage compared to the Wuwei camp.
However, he was worried that this was Wei Ba's trick, so he hesitated and had to send someone to ask Chen Tai to discuss it.
Chen Tai was a little embarrassed after reading Wei Ba's letter of challenge. Wei Ba had written a letter of challenge. If Cao Yu didn't follow up, it would naturally be a loss of dignity and a further blow to the morale of the Wei army. More importantly, in the future, Cao Yu would lose his dignity.
General Cao Yu will not be able to gain a foothold in the army. Neither the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry nor the Wuwei Camp will look down upon a coward who dares not fight. If Cao Yu loses face, then his deputy general will not have any good results.
It seems that we have to fight, at least we cannot retreat.
"Your Majesty, please agree to come down and see how Wei Ba handles it." Chen Tai thought for a long time and finally said: "If he really only leaves two thousand soldiers and walks out of the position to confront the Wuwei camp, then he might as well fight. If
If he goes back on his word and refuses to fight, it is natural that he will break his promise and get fat, and he will not be the king."
Cao Yu felt it was reasonable and agreed.
Soon, Cao Yu wrote his answer on the back of the challenge letter and handed it to the soldiers waiting in front of the camp. After the soldiers took it, they were filled with joy and waved to the watching soldiers of the Wuwei camp: "I'll see you on the battlefield in the future.
, let’s see who wins, who is the strongest infantry in the world.”
The news soon spread throughout the Wei army camp. As soon as they heard that Wei Ba was going to challenge the Wuwei camp with the Wei family's soldiers, all the Wei soldiers became excited. This was an outrage that they had never heard before. Since Xu Chu returned to Cao Cao's command, Wu Jun
The Guard Battalion was formally established, but it had not yet encountered a real opponent. In all the battles it participated in, it was almost never defeated. Even when the Xiliang cavalry led by Ma Chao was chasing after them, the Guard Battalion still managed to escape with Cao Cao intact.
As for their leader, Tiger Marquis Xu Chu, he was a world-famous master. Although he has passed away, Wuwei Camp is still proud of him, and no one is willing to lose his reputation. If someone wants to challenge Wuwei Camp, if they don’t take him
Is it still the style of the Wuwei camp to beat him until his nose is black and his eyes are swollen, and his teeth are all over the floor? In addition, the other party is out of control
Wei Ba, who has always been invincible in Taoism, is a very important opponent. Defeating him will bring the reputation of the Wuwei camp to a new level. If he can be killed, it can even greatly affect the situation of this battle, and for His Majesty the Emperor, Yan
How happy is it that His Highness the King and the officers and soldiers of the Wei army who were defeated by him let out a bad breath?
In a short period of time, this news became the hottest topic, and some people even started to make bets. Of course, the vast majority of the Wei army won by overwhelming the Wuwei camp.
The excitement of the soldiers surprised Cao Yu and Chen Tai. They did not expect the soldiers' reaction to be so fierce. At this point, even if Cao Yu didn't want to fight, it would be no good. Chen Tai regretted a little. He was not worried that Wuweiying was not Wei Jiawu.
Pawn's opponent, but because Wei Ba once again took the initiative.
In marching operations, initiative is very important. Sun Tzu once said: Those who are good at fighting can cause others but not harm others. If the other party dominates the progress of the war, it has obviously fallen into the control of the other party on a psychological level.
Chen Tai felt a little uneasy. He did not dare to neglect, and after discussing with Cao Yu, he immediately wrote a report to Cao Rui, systematically reporting the situation here to Cao Rui, and Cao Rui made the decision.
Just when Chen Tai and Cao Yu were hesitant, Wei Ba responded quickly. He dismantled the pontoons on the turbulent water one by one and dragged them back to the west bank. Only two thousand people were left in the position on the east bank. At the same time, he moved the position
After opening a crack, Wei Wu led five hundred soldiers out of the defensive position, laid out their formation, and issued an upright invitation to the Wei army to fight.
Cao Yu was determined not to fight and waited for Cao Rui's reply, but he soon discovered that the matter was no longer up to him. The soldiers in the Wuwei camp were in a rage and asked for a fight. Even Xu Ding, the general of the Wuwei camp, was eager to try.
Cao Yu had no choice but to send out five hundred soldiers from the military guard battalion to fight.
The opponent was not Wei Ba, and Cao Yu was not ready to fight in person. Even Xu Ding was embarrassed to fight against a young man, so he just sent a captain. However, this captain was not a weakling. He and Chen Tai were from
Wen Qin came from the Tongguan battlefield.
As soon as he saw Wen Qin, Wei Wu smiled. He pulled out his long sword and pointed at Wen Qin opposite him casually: "Shu Zi, you escaped quickly last time and didn't know how to cherish your life. You went home and hid in your mother's house."
You are sucking milk from your arms, and you actually came to me again. In this case, I will teach you a lesson this time and show you what it means to be a master."
Wen Qin was so angry that he was furious. His last defeat at the hands of Wei Wu was an unforgettable shame. Now that Wei Wu said it in front of so many people, how could he not be furious?
"Hey, Shuzi, stop boasting and come to fight!" Wen Qin drew his sword and struck his shield, roared loudly, and rushed towards Wei Wu.
