Cao Cao was confused now.
He was really confused.
Who am I, where am I, what happened?
Why did this officer call my son General?
Why do you need to report the situation of the army to Ang'er?
The troops have been assembled. Please give me your general instructions. This cannot be said to everyone.
You can only use this kind of wording and tone to your immediate superior, who is the commander-in-chief of this army.
Could it be that my son is actually a general in an army?
Looking at the Cao flag flying high in the sky, Cao Cao felt even more dazzling at the moment.
As far as he knew, no one with the surname Cao in Luoyang City was qualified to command an army alone.
So this flag refers to my son Cao Ang?
He also said just now that it would be great if he had such an organized unit under his command. Many things would be solved and things would go smoothly.
Did your wish come true just like that?
The army did not appear under my Cao Cao, but appeared under my son.
Cao Cao found it incredible.
He lowered his head again and looked at the young general who was kneeling on one knee, waiting for Cao Ang to give orders.
Then he turned around and looked at the son he had always known.
After repeated observations two or three times, Cao Cao suddenly felt a little dreamy. The son he thought he knew so well in the past actually seemed quite strange now.
When did Zixiu lead the army alone?
Why don't I know anything about it? I haven't even heard the news. Isn't this baffling?
Looking at the confused look on his father's face.
Cao Ang couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a joking smile.
But he soon kept a straight face and waved seriously to Zhang Liao who was waiting for orders.
"Wenyuan, let the brothers repair where they are for a moment and wait for my order before setting off!"
"Here!"
Following Zhang Liao, he quickly ran back to the military formation.
Cao Cao finally couldn't hold it any longer.
He couldn't wait to pull Cao Ang to the side, and then asked in a hurried tone.
"My son, what is going on? When did you have such an army under your command?"
Cao Ang first bowed his hand to Cao Cao.
Then he said in a leisurely tone: "Father, I don't know, but the boy is now the Colonel of Huben, and has been ordered to lead the Huben camp out of the city to carry out the transfer order."
"By orders, by whose orders?"
Even though Cao Cao was confused and his thoughts were racing at the moment, he still grasped the key point instantly.
"By order of Dong Zhuo!"
Cao Cao was stunned.
…………
"Keng!"
The crisp sound of metal clashing.
Cao Cao pulled out the short sword from his waist, then pointed it at Cao Ang angrily, and cursed with anger on his face.
"Treason!"
"You're such an evil deed, you actually hid your father's secrets and secretly colluded with that thief Dong Zhuo."
"I asked you why you often say good things for him. When you first persuaded me to give up assassinating Dong Zhuo, I thought you had some good intentions. It turns out that you had already taken refuge with Dong Zhuo and became a traitor for him!"
"Such a rebellious son has become an accomplice of Dong's thieves, a rebellious person who has usurped the Han Dynasty. If I don't get rid of him today, I won't be raising tigers and causing trouble for everyone!"
Cao Cao seemed very excited.
However, in Cao Ang's opinion, the thunder was loud but the raindrops were small, and the words and tone were quite harsh, but the dagger in his hand was raised in the air and never fell.
Lao Cao is just saying it.
Even if Cao Ang really defected to Dong Zhuo, he would collude with Dong Zhuo's thieves and get together.
At most, Cao Cao could only impose strict discipline and correct his thinking. How could he possibly kill his successor with a sword?
After seeing this.
Cao Ang smiled instead of being surprised, pointed at the dagger in Cao Cao's hand, and said calmly.
"Why is father so excited?"
"You might as well put that thing down and let the child explain it to you in detail."
"snort!"
Cao Cao snorted coldly, then decisively threw the dagger to the ground, and then folded his hands in front of his chest.
"Tell me, I want to see what sweet words you are going to use to deceive me. If you don't explain clearly what happened between you and Dong Zhuo, my father will never forgive you today!"
…
Cao Ang straightened his clothes.
Then he calmly said: "Dong Zhuo is a usurper and traitor, an ambitious man who rebelled against his superiors and deposed the emperor. But my son is a loyal man and a loyal and patriotic person recognized by the government and the public. How can I collude with Dong Zhuo?"
Cao Cao believed this.
After all, at the court meeting, Cao Ang stood up and confronted Dong Zhuo in court, saving the dignity of the Han royal family.
This behavior is obvious to all.
After that, he did meet someone who greeted him and asked about his son Cao Ang.
This is true, but the more so, the more unexplainable it becomes. The origin of the army in front of us is the most puzzling.
"You said you had nothing to do with Dong Zhuo, then how did you become Colonel Huben, and why did you say you left the city on Dong Zhuo's order?"
"You must know that although Thief Dong is a traitor, he is definitely not a brainless person. If he didn't trust you, how could he entrust the military power to you!"
Cao Ang approached Cao Cao.
Then he said mysteriously: "Dong Zhuo is naturally smart and resourceful, but the boy is more skilled. I deceived him into getting this army."
"Not only that, the red rabbit horse you saw earlier was also tricked by me from him. He willingly gave these things to me."
"How can I refuse?"
That's what I said.
Cao Cao couldn't help but laugh.
For the first time, he discovered that his son was quite humorous, and he always said the same thing, which made him laugh.
"Come, tell me how you deceived Dong Zhuo."
Cao Ang has a good habit.
That means keeping a map with you.
After spreading his hands slightly, the location of Bohai County in Jizhou was revealed.
Cao Ang pointed at Cao Cao and said.
"I told Dong Zhuo that my uncle was his innermost enemy in controlling Luoyang and the government. If he was allowed to wander around the world, I am afraid that within a year and a half, his surname Dong would be dead. .”
"Then I made a suggestion to Dong Zhuo, asking him to order Uncle Benchu to be appointed as the governor of Bohai, and then give me an army to go to the vicinity of Bohai County to supervise in case of changes."
"Dong Zhuo is convinced that this is how this 2,000-man army came to be."
Following Cao Ang's narration.
Cao Cao constructed a picture in his mind and began to deduce what his son said.
After a while.
Cao Cao was shocked.
The whole person looked at Cao Ang in shock.
"Confused!"
"Your uncle is the top priority in forming an alliance to defeat Dong's thieves in the future. How can you tell Dong Zhuo such a confidential matter? Isn't this harming him?"
"What, are you still planning to obey Dong Zhuo's wishes and lead troops to Bohai County?"
Seeing that Cao Cao's anger level has risen again.
He looked like he couldn't help but get angry again.
Cao Ang said angrily.
"You said you got it from Dong Zhuo, so how can you do what he ordered?"
"Later, let's go northeast first, and then turn back to the east after reaching a certain distance."
"This not only paralyzes Dong Zhuo, but also protects Uncle Ben Chu, and we gain an army in vain."
"Kill three eagles with one stone, why not?"
Cao Cao was speechless.
…………
Cao Cao finally came to his senses.
yes!
My son is a person who never suffers.
What I always pay attention to is that I want all the benefits and I won't do anything. I took your things, but don't ask me to do anything.
Such a thick-faced and dark-hearted person is outrageous.
How could it be possible to obey Dong Zhuo's instructions honestly?
He would only silently accept the military power Dong Zhuo gave him, ride on the horse Dong Zhuo gave him, and then ignore Dong Zhuo's entrustment and forget all about it.
This is my great eldest son, Cao Ang!
After a long moment of silence.
Cao Cao finally managed to hold back a sentence.
"Dong Zhuo is a usurper and traitor, a person who conspires to cause rebellion. Isn't it inappropriate to benefit from him?"
Cao Ang didn't expect that Cao Cao would ask such a question, so he couldn't help but rolled his eyes.
Although very rude.
But he still said angrily: "Father, when did you become so pedantic? I don't see anything inappropriate."
"The soldiers and horses we obtained from Dong Zhuo will be used to defeat Dong Zhuo in the future. This is called taking them from Dong and using them for Dong."
"The better things we get and the more soldiers and horses we get, the stronger our strength will be and the faster our family business will grow. This will increase our chances of winning when we attack Dong Zhuo in the future."
“You should have too little, not too much.”
Having said this, Cao Ang paused for a moment.
After moisturizing your lips.
A sly smile appeared on his face.
"The resources Dong Zhuo has at hand are limited. The more I take, the less he will have left. Maybe in the future, because of the lack of a red rabbit horse, he will have no time to escape and be killed by the horse?"
To be honest, when it comes to this.
Cao Ang was thinking of no one else.
It's him.
Wasn't it because of the lack of a good horse in the Battle of Wancheng that only one of the father and son could escape from the battlefield?
If there was a good horse like Red Rabbit, it would be more than enough to carry them both.
…
Cao Ang's words are very convincing.
This is not a strong argument, but a well-founded argument.
Therefore, even if Cao Cao had concerns, after listening to his son's words, he had to be convinced.
What my son said makes sense!
It is a very foolish and superficial idea to stick to Dong Zhuo's identity and resist obtaining resources from him.
As long as we can increase our strength, no matter where this strength comes from, it is of positive significance.
What's more, obtaining soldiers and horses from Dong Zhuo is tantamount to digging out Dong Zhuo's roots. Although the digging is not deep, it is still considered digging.
Why not do it?
Besides, the soldiers and BMW are so innocent!
This is not the Xiliang army that has always been causing trouble.
They are just some of the big-headed soldiers who make a living in the Northern Army. Is it possible that because they were recruited by Dong Zhuo, they will be branded as a traitor army from now on?
The red rabbit horse also turned into a thief horse?
Nonsense.
He glanced at the army that was getting ready not far away, and then looked at his tall and handsome son.
Then he said somewhat cautiously: "Well, Ang'er, shall we set off?"
Cao Angang was ready to respond.
Suddenly I remembered something.
He quickly took out a document, handed it to Cao Cao, and said with a smile.
"I almost forgot about this matter. From today on, father, you are no longer the right middle lieutenant general. Prepare to leave for Jiyin County to serve as the prefect."
Cao Cao: "?"
…
Look at the words on the paperwork.
Cao Cao unconsciously began to breathe quickly.
I was still thinking about it yesterday.
It is said that General You Zhonglang, who has no soldiers, no power, and an empty reputation, would rather be a prefect who guards one side and owns a territory of his own than himself.
At that time, my son asked himself whether he had confidence.
At that time, Cao Cao only thought that Cao Ang was joking.
Unexpectedly, it only took one day.
The document appointing him as the prefect of Jiyin County appeared in front of him.
One word and one sentence, the emperor's seal.
Has absolute legal effect.
Cao Cao was really shocked now.
I was shocked and inexplicable.
incredible.
"Son, how did you get this... did you get it from Dong Zhuo?"
Cao Ang nodded happily.
"Dong Zhuo is still a loyal man!"
The corners of Cao Cao's mouth twitched slightly.
His facial muscles twitched violently twice.
I ignored my son's antics.
But he still held the document and studied it for a long time.
Cao Cao felt like he was in a dream, and everything that happened today made him feel incredible.
The Cao family had two thousand regular troops inexplicably.
He also became the prefect of a county.
Their family is still leisurely preparing to leave Luoyang City and go to their own territory to develop safely.
So many good things come crashing down on us.
Cao Cao immediately fainted.
And all of this is related to his son Cao Ang. He earned it from Dong Zhuo through his own abilities.
It is precisely because of the existence of Cao Ang.
With his unremitting efforts and various means, the Cao family was able to lift off from the same place, directly skipping the complicated and trivial accumulation stage in the early stage, and have a certain strength foundation.
God bless my Cao family!
For such a unicorn child to be born into my Cao family and become my Cao Cao's son, how could it not be a blessing from God!
…
A quarter of an hour later.
Under Cao Ang's order.
The army immediately moved out and divided into two columns, front and rear, protecting the Cao family's convoy in the middle.
Then they headed towards the Wenxian area northeast of Luoyang.
According to Cao Ang's plan, the army must appear in any county in the northeast and leave traces there, thus giving Dong Zhuo the illusion that he has gone to the northeast.
Wait until you have reached a certain distance and then adjust the direction back, so that you will be foolproof.
At this moment, it is located in the central position.
Cao Cao, who was riding on horseback, looked at the solemn military formations in front and behind.
Suddenly I felt a little ashamed.
It’s my father’s fault...
Not only was he the right-hand man, it was his son who encouraged him to go to Wang Situ's house to rectify him.
As a result, even the position of prefect was obtained by his son.
Including the power of the army that he had always wanted, Cao Ang had independently taken control of one in a few moments.
To be honest, he was stunned today.
The shocking emotion never stopped for a moment.
Cao Ang really gave him too many surprises.
Being able to move around in such a small environment, maneuvering around in front of a cruel and cruel person like Dong Zhuo, and playing with Dong Zhuo at the palm of his hand.
What kind of skill is this? !
My son Cao Ang is a genius!
When he thought of this, Cao Cao's mood instantly improved, and his whole person became a little brighter and cheerful.
Ashamed?
What a shame!
He is my son and I am his father.
My son has such an ability, doesn't it prove that I, as a father, am not bad at all? This is a talent that comes from my family and has been passed down from me.
Cao Cao felt happy.
He completely forgot that a quarter of an hour ago, he had drawn his dagger and shouted that he was going to kill Cao Ang, the traitor.
