, he had discussed with three other army commanders to move the checkpoint ten miles eastward and set up a small camp, where four soldiers and horses could take turns to be on duty.

But the other three, especially Shu Qiang, were firmly opposed.

In their view, Duting is not a battlefield and does not need to be like this at all.

If Cao Cao couldn't resist Yuan's army in Suanzao, how could Xiaoduting resist?

On the one hand, morale was low after the defeat and the morale of the army was unstable; on the other hand, several army commanders had their own agendas, and no one was willing to do such a thing.

Wu Ban had no choice but to send people to guard here.

Regardless of whether it can resist Yuan Jun, at least don't let Yuan Jun arrive, and the main camp will not be aware of it.

As soon as Cao Peng arrived, he immediately expressed his approval of his approach, mobilized troops and horses, and set up an outpost camp in Xiaotan, which made Wu Ban very happy.

Don’t underestimate these two small camps!

With these two small camps, the soldiers of the Duting camp could at least have a peaceful sleep.

It seems that Colonel Cao is a man who knows the military well and can respond quickly. At least he is not a playboy who comes here just to gain seniority.

Tian Yu said that Wu Ban is a member of the Chenliu Wu clan and is related to Mrs. Wu.

But in fact, the Chenliu Wu family has long since declined and is no longer as prosperous as it once was. Wu Ban's father, Wu Kuang, was once a subordinate of General He Jin. In the first year of Guangxi, He Jin's plan to kill Shi Chang was defeated and Wu Kuang was killed.

Because Kuang resented the general of chariots and cavalry, that is, He Jin's brother He Miao, who was not of the same mind as He Jin, and even suspected that He Miao was conspiring with the eunuchs, which was why He Jin was defeated and killed, he led his troops to attack and kill He Miao at Zhuque Tower.

He also appeared in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms, joining forces with Dong Min to kill He Miao.

However, it was precisely because of this incident that Wu Kuang was impeached. In addition, he was loyal to the young emperor Liu Bian, so he turned against Dong Zhuo. After Dong Zhuo entered the capital, Wu Kuang saw that Dong Zhuo had few soldiers, so he contacted others to prepare to attack Dong Zhuo. He did not want Dong Zhuo to use

He concealed the truth and ordered his troops to leave the city at night and then enter the city during the day, causing many people to have the illusion that Dong Zhuo's troops were constantly increasing.

Seeing that no one responded, Wu Kuang was a little scared himself, so he abandoned his official position and fled back to Chenliu's hometown.

In the history books, Wu Kuang later became Zhang Fei's general.

But now, because Liu Bei failed to gain a foothold in Yuzhou and then fled with his troops, Wu Kuang instead of becoming Zhang Fei's general, instead became the Yongqiu Ling. He and Cao Cao were old acquaintances and had a close relationship.

Yes. However, Wu Kuang didn't know that there was another member of his family who became Cao ***'s adoptive grandmother. After Mrs. Wu entered the palace, she also lost contact with her family, so the Chenliu Wu family also did not

He is very aware of his relationship with Mr. Cao... There are only two Chenliu and Wu families left, and Wu Kuang is one of them.

The representative of the other branch is named Wu Yi.

In the sixth year of Zhongping, the whole family followed Liu Yan to Shu, and now he serves as the general of Yizhou Zhonglang, working for Liu Zhang.

Wu Ban was young, heroic, and chivalrous, and was a very famous young ranger in Chenliu County. After the Battle of Guandu began, Xiahou Yuan ordered the recruitment of soldiers from Xiangyong County. Wu Ban was also recruited by Xia Houyuan because of his reputation and served as the commander of Chen Liujun.

Military Sima, with considerable military exploits.

However, Wu Ban did not expect that Chen Liujun was defeated in Yanjin and the general was killed by Wen Chou.

Chen Liu's army then collapsed, and Wu Ban managed to save the Junyi tribe. After being defeated and retreating to Fengqiu, they rested and reorganized in Duting under the orders of Le Jin.

Although he did not see Cao Cao's true intention, Wu Ban also knew that Du Pavilion was quite important.

So they tried their best to stabilize the camp. Among the four divisions, only the Junyi Division still maintains the military and horse training...

Sima from the other two armies came with Wu Ban to greet Cao Peng. However, Cao Peng didn't give them a good look at all, and he didn't even bother to write down their names.

"Where's Shu Qiang?"

After sitting down in the central tent of the camp, Cao Peng looked around at everyone in the tent.

Logically speaking, when his new official takes office, all the generals must come together to welcome him... However, the only person missing from this large tent is Shu Qiang from Chenliu.

Seeing that Cao Peng's face was not very good, a military commander quickly stood up and explained, "Shu Sima led his troops on inspection today, so he is not in the camp."

"snort!"

Wu Ban suddenly snorted coldly, with a look of disdain on his face.

The military commander who spoke suddenly showed a somewhat embarrassed expression, not knowing what to do.

Cao Peng glanced at the Army Sima, then suddenly changed the subject, looked at Wu Band and said: "Wu Sima, can you tell me about the situation in this camp?"

Wu Ban hurriedly stood up and cupped his hands and said: "Come back to the school captain, there are four troops in the Duting camp, with a total of 870 people.

There are 283 troops from the Ban Headquarters stationed on the east bank of the Duting Floating Bridge... The other three troops all stay in the camp, but the Chenliu troops often go out of the camp to 'inspect', and most of the time they are stationed in the north of the camp.

Tacun. The specific situation is not clear to the general."

"Tacun?"

Cao Peng's eyes flashed.

A military Sima quickly explained, "It is not Shu Sima's own decision. He stationed in Tacun is also to echo the big camp..."

"Tacun is about sixteen miles away from here. To the west across the ditch is Yangwu."

Tian Yu suddenly spoke and explained to Cao Peng.

Cao Peng's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he roughly understood the mystery. Could that guy be leading a group of defeated troops to harass the village?

"How many people are there in Tower Village?"

"The population is not too large, there are only seventy or eighty households, but only three or four hundred people."

"Get the map."

"Here!"

Cao Peng raised his head and said, "Since I have come to Duting, I should fulfill my duties. If I have offended you in any way, please forgive me... Wu Ban, go and inform Shu Qiang that I will take office tomorrow at Mao hour."

Order troops and conduct drills with the troops in the camp. All troops and horses must arrive on time."

Wu Ban quickly stood up and responded to the order.

"From now on, the gate of the Duting camp will be closed and checkpoints will be set up.
Chapter completed!
