Chapter 459: Cao Cao takes power

The book is followed last time.

After the straw was ignited, Cao Cao looked at Li Zhi with a weird face and asked, "Mr. Mu, didn't you say that the straw would not be ignited? This..."

Speaking of this, he pointed to the straw that had already ignited a raging fire, and the meaning was self-evident.

After Li Zhi heard Cao Cao's words, he was covered in dark lines. He didn't expect that Cao Cao was so ignorant of common sense.

Not to mention being covered with a layer of wet cloth, even if you soak the straw in the river, these dozen torches can ignite it.

So, Li Zhi said to Cao Cao with an upset face, "Leader, your approach is like pouring a bowl of water on a raging fire, of course it won't work."

After hearing Li Zhi's words, Cao Cao was stunned for a moment and asked, "Mr. Mu means, is there too many torches that the leader of the alliance throws on the straw?"

"That's right" Li Zhi nodded and said helplessly: "These dozen torches evaporate all the water on the wet cloth, of course, can ignite it.

If it were three or five torches, it would probably not have any effect."

After hearing this, Cao Cao touched his short beard and frowned and asked, "Mr. Mu, the enemy is not the leader of the alliance, and he will not be under the command of Mr. Mu.

If the enemy sees that three or five torches are not working, they gather dozens of torches in one place and throw them down, wouldn’t they ignite the straw?”

After hearing Cao Cao's words, Li Zhi shook his head and said, "Leader, the function of these wet cloths is to prevent the straw from being ignited at the first time.

As long as we are not ignited at the first time, we will give us a chance to reflect.

The function of these straws is to catch the soldiers falling from the city walls, and after the soldiers fall, it is impossible for them to continue to attack the city immediately.

Therefore, even if the enemy throws the torch, as long as the straw is not lit at the first time, the fallen soldiers can throw all of these torches elsewhere."

"So that's it." After hearing Li Zhi's explanation, Cao Cao nodded clearly and said with excitement: "This method has great potential!"

Cao Cao was an action faction. After he finished speaking, he immediately ordered the messenger: "Transfer the order of the leader of the alliance, so that all the straws in General Yuan Shu can gather on the front line. In addition, let him find a way to make some cloth!"

"Here!" After hearing Cao Cao's order, the messenger responded and hurried away.

Yuan Shu, who was drinking and having fun in the rear, was surprised after receiving Cao Cao's order.

However, although he didn't know why Cao Cao used these things, he did not delay and immediately asked someone to prepare all these things.

After everything was ready and shipped to the front line, the sky gradually darkened.

"Ding Ding Ding..."

A pleasant sound of attacking gold came, and the soldiers who were sieging the city slowly retreated like a tide.

After all the soldiers retreated and set up camp, Cao Cao also came to the tent.

At this time, the princes in the big tent had been waiting here for a long time.

After Cao Cao came in, the impatient Ma Teng immediately stood up and said to Cao Cao: "Leader, why did you call us to come?"

When Cao Cao heard this, he did not answer immediately. After sitting in his seat, he pressed his hand towards Ma Teng and signaled him to sit down, he spoke: "Everyone, the reason why this leader of the alliance calls you to come is because the leader of the alliance has already thought of a way to break the enemy.

However, this method of breaking the enemy requires your help.”

As soon as Cao Cao finished speaking, Sun Jian immediately stood up, clasped his fists and said loudly: "If you have any questions, just give me instructions. Why be so polite?

As long as we can break through Hulao Pass, even if we are wiped out, we will be unwilling to do so!"

After hearing Sun Jian's words, Cao Cao nodded slightly, and a light flashed in his eyes.

Yesterday, Cao Cao had already taken Sun Jian under his command.

Of course, this subjugation did not mean that Sun Jian became a retainer of Cao Cao, but that Sun Jian was willing to stand on Cao Cao's side.

At this time, the reason why Sun Jian stood up and spoke was to help Cao Cao take care of his child.

As Cao Cao expected, Sun Jian's words played a big role.

After he finished speaking, Ma Teng, who had always been competing with Sun Jian, immediately stood up and agreed: "That's right, the leader of the alliance doesn't have to be so polite. Just give orders if you have something to do."

As a prince of one side, Sun Jian and Ma Teng have both stood up and said this, in order not to lose face, the others could only echo one after another: "General Sun and General Ma are right.

As long as we can break through Hulao Pass, we will be unwilling to do so even if the entire army is wiped out!"

"That's right, I agree with this."

"That's right, please give me the order."

"good!"

In the absence of everyone's response, Yuan Shao did not speak.

He looked at Cao Cao with suspicion. He believed that Cao Cao's move was to seize the military power of his people, so he did not dare to speak easily.

Cao Cao also saw Yuan Shao who had not spoken, narrowed his eyes and asked, "What are your objections, Brother Benchu?"

"Ah?" Yuan Shao, who was thinking deeply, was stunned immediately after hearing Cao Cao's words.

At this time, he could not speak out against Cao Cao, because since everyone agreed, if he refuted, wouldn’t it be uncommon for everyone?

Therefore, even if Yuan Shao did not want to agree with this matter, he could only nod his head helplessly and said, "What the leader said is reasonable, I agree below. Everything is up to the leader."

After saying that, Yuan Shao immediately picked up the wine cup, drank a glass of wine, and concealed his inner anger.

After hearing Yuan Shao's words, Cao Cao nodded and said to everyone: "Tomorrow, you will divide half of the army into this leader, and we will do our best to siege Hulao Pass!

At that time, the attacking soldiers do not have to carry weapons, just go up and compete with the big shield soldiers.

As long as we can exhaust all these big shield soldiers, we will win a big victory!

At that time, I will definitely be able to pull Hulao into one fell swoop!"

"This..." Everyone was stunned after hearing Cao Cao's words. They didn't expect that Cao Cao's method was so simple.

However, after thinking for a while, everyone felt that this method was simple and clumsy, but it was very effective.

Although the large shield soldiers on the city wall are powerful, their number is too small, with only six or seven thousand people. As long as these six or seven thousand people are exhausted, their shield formation will be broken without attacking. At that time, it will be much easier to attack Hulao Pass.

After thinking it through, everyone picked up the wine cups, toasted Cao Cao, and praised loudly: "The leader is wise, we respect him."

At this time, Kong Rong stood up and shook his head and said, "As the saying goes, the way of the great way is simple. Although the leader's method seems simple and clumsy at first glance, after careful consideration, he is well aware of the principles of the great way. Come on, let me respect the leader again."

After saying that, Kong Rong toasted Cao Cao with the wine glass in his hand.

After hearing Kong Rong's words, everyone stood up and said loudly to Cao Cao: "We'll be in a cup of honor for the leader!"

The reason why everyone praised Cao Cao so much was because they saw hope for victory.

After killing Dong Zhuo and rescuing His Majesty, Cao Cao will definitely become an important figure.

After saving Your Majesty, Cao Cao, as the leader of the alliance, will definitely be rewarded by Your Majesty.

At that time, it will be difficult to get into Cao Cao's relationship.

Therefore, they all wanted to make friends with Cao Cao before he could soar to the sky.

Even Yuan Shao, who was full of dissatisfaction, stood up and casually followed everyone, like Cao Cao toasted.

Yuan Shao knew that if this time the challenge of Dong was successful, even if he could control all the forces of the Yuan family in the future, his power would probably not be more powerful than Cao Cao, so Yuan Shao let go of his displeasure and toast to Cao Cao.

Seeing that everyone toasted him, Cao Cao stood up and replied to everyone, "Everyone, we are all working for the great man, and we should not distinguish between you and me in order."

Although this leader is fortunate to be elected as leader by everyone, our status is the same. Come on, let’s drink this cup together!”

After saying that, Cao Cao drank the wine in the glass in one go, and then he lit the bottom of the glass towards everyone.

After seeing Cao Cao finish drinking, everyone cheered loudly: "The leader is good at drinking!"

After saying that, everyone drank the wine in front of them one after another.

While everyone was drinking, Li Zhi looked outside the camp.

Because he was afraid that the soldiers and horses in the city would attack out of the city, the adviser in the city was Li Ru, who was the best at risk.

If Li Ru took advantage of the unpreparedness and sent a group of troops to attack suddenly, it would probably have a great blow to the coalition forces.

Because, except for Cao Cao, the soldiers of other princes all had night blindness.

Dong Zhuo's subordinates are mostly Qiang people, and they eat meat on weekdays, and few people have night blindness.

So, if there is a night battle, Dong Zhuo's side will have a strong battle.
