"Finally here!" In Suiyang City, Meng Kai listened to the mighty sound of horse hooves in the distance, and saw the signal that had been discussed in advance by the firelight, and he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
He had been struggling with this matter in his mind for several days, and he finally waited for this moment. As long as he can go smoothly today, he won't have to worry about it next time.
"Brothers, follow me!" While pretending to ask the soldiers on the city wall to take precautions, he hurriedly led three hundred personal guards down the city wall and headed straight for the city gate.
Now Huang Chao's power has reached the end of its rope, and there are only three or two big cats and kittens left under his generals. Therefore, in the extreme lack of generals, on this wall, Meng Kai almost spoke his mind. No one dared to ask what he wanted to do or where he was going.
"I've seen the general, why are you down here?" Fan Tong, the captain of the city gate school, asked with a puzzled look.
Upon hearing the deafening sound of horse hooves, a normal person would know what happened without even thinking about it. The enemy is facing the enemy. At this time, shouldn't the general be commanding on the city wall? How could he have time to come to the city gate!
Meng Kai, on the other hand, deliberately kept a straight face and said with disdain: "Why, I, the general, are here to inspect. Do I still have to explain to you, a little city gate captain?"
"Of course not!" Fan Tong said with a careful smile. After all, he was a man of few words. He didn't dare to ask what Meng Kai wanted to do or where he was going, and it was not his turn to ask.
"Come here!" Meng Kai didn't have time to waste with a city gate captain at this time. He had business to do when he came down. If this was done, he wouldn't have to worry about his own life.
His superiors gave orders. Although Fan Tong didn't know what to do, he could only walk forward a few steps.
"You..." Fan Tong pointed at Meng Kai weakly and in shock, but Meng Kai's arm suddenly exerted force again, and he finally fell down unwillingly. At the same time, the soldiers behind Meng Kai also bared their fangs and charged forward.
Just now, when Fan Tong walked in front of Meng Kai, Meng Kai tried to step forward to whisper, but when Fan Tong wasn't paying attention, he quickly pulled out the dagger from his waist and stabbed the opponent's chest.
"Open the city gate!" After dealing with Fan Tong, Meng Kai showed a proud smile and then ordered to the soldiers around him.
Indeed, it is indeed impossible for Meng Kai to surrender to Sun Ce. Even if he surrenders, Sun Ce will never let him go. However, this definitely did not affect his surrender to Cao Cao.
Therefore, when spies from the school affairs office came to contact Meng Kai, Meng Kai finally chose the path he thought was right after pretending to struggle.
After all, based on the current situation, Huang Chao has finished his game, and he definitely cannot surrender to Sun Ce. Surrendering to Cao Cao at this moment is the best choice.
In front of your own life, other things must stand aside. What's more, Huang Chao is a traitor himself, so what qualifications does he have for Meng Kai to be loyal to him until death!
"Crunch, crunch..."
The tall city gate opened little by little, and the tiger and leopard riders who happened to be charging rushed in.
Cao Chun, the leader of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, looked at Meng Kai who was nodding and bowing aside. Although he felt very contemptuous in his heart, he still needed to use this person in the future, especially since the development of the next plan was closely related to this person. Therefore, Cao Chun still put on an enthusiastic look on the surface.
"General Meng, I hope the general will lead us to where Huang Chao is. Afterwards, the lord will reward the general for his merits!" Cao Chun said to Meng Kai with a fake smile.
"Don't worry, General Cao. Huang Chao can't leave as long as I'm here." Meng Kai patted his chest and vowed.
Just after Tian Ji and his troops entered the city, Wu Jie followed them and followed suit. At the same time, Zhou Yu, who received the news, became uneasy and immediately ordered the entire army to attack and attack the city from all sides.
To be honest, Huang Chao was defeated so miserably last time. After that battle, Huang Chao only had six or seven thousand soldiers and horses left. Even though he forcibly recruited 20,000 young men afterwards, these people alone could not It was impossible to block the attack of 10,000 elite cavalry.
Although after the cavalry entered the city, their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced due to the inability to launch a large-scale charge due to terrain factors, but after all, they were 10,000 cavalry, and these 10,000 cavalry may also include 3,000 tiger and leopard cavalry.
However, the actual situation is seriously inconsistent with what should happen. Cao Chun's Tiger and Leopard Cavalry advanced slowly, as if they were waiting for something.
However, unlike Cao's army, Sun Ce's troops used all their strength and pushed forward with all their might. If this situation continues, they may even catch up with Cao Jun who entered the city earlier than them.
"General Cao, this is where Huang Chao is!" Meng Kai pointed to a luxurious mansion and said to Cao Chun respectfully.
"How is it? Has the Sun family arrived?" At this time, Cao Chun did not pay attention to Meng Kai immediately. Instead, he asked a big man next to him.
"Don't worry, Zihe, the Sun family is not far from here!" The big man replied with certainty.
And this big man is not an ordinary person, but a rising star in the Cao Cao clan. He is the leader of the Cao family in both military use and bravery. Although his qualifications and achievements are still lacking, he is deeply valued by Cao Cao. But as soon as he joined the army, he became Cao Chun's assistant and the deputy general of Hubaoqi.
He is none other than Cao Wenzhao, who is known as the enemy of ten thousand people. There are only a few fierce generals in each dynasty who can be rated as capable of being defeated by ten thousand people, and Cao Wenzhao was one of the powerful generals who was rated as capable of being defeated by ten thousand people in the Ming Dynasty. At the same time, he is also known as the first good general and the first among the good generals in the late Ming Dynasty.
Zhang Tingyu, the editor-in-chief of "History of the Ming Dynasty" commented on him: Cao Wenzhao and others, with their fierce talents, defeated everything they went, and they were all called enemies of ten thousand people. When a great destiny is lost, a good general is defeated, loyalty and bravery are the greatest, and death is also the most violent.
Cao Wenzhao's life-long military experience is a true portrayal of the warriors in the late Ming Dynasty, and he is an outstanding representative among the warriors. A soldier will fight for his country, and a soldier will die for his country. His life is extremely magnificent, his loyalty and courage are obvious, and his death for the country is tragic, which wipes away people's impression of military generals in the late Ming Dynasty who are greedy for life and afraid of death.
It is a pity that the generals have the troops to attack and suppress, the states and counties have no blocking power, and the court has no pacification skills. The Ming Dynasty, which Cao Wenzhao and many other generals fought to protect, finally disappeared.
"If that's the case, then we can't drag it out anymore, it's time to get serious!" After hearing the answer he wanted, Cao Chun couldn't help but laugh ferociously.
