Chapter 46 This ability is really strong [Seeking follow-up reading]

"What did you originally plan to do when you brought the troops here?"

Cao Cao asked Zhang Liao.

The rain had been drizzling for half the night, and I don't know when it stopped.

The bright moon showed half of its narrow face from behind the dark clouds, spreading its light that illuminated the boundless earth.

The puddles on the ground reflected the moonlight.

Zhang Liao whispered, "I have learned that Dong Zhuo has led a large army into the palace again. Rather than confronting him in the palace, it is better to attack the north gate he occupies in Luoyang."

A surprise attack on an empty goal!
Cao Cao smiled and said, "What a good general! I think so too."

It's just right to act in a group.

"Let's go together." Cao Cao said.

Zhang Liao's eyes lit up, "General, I think the same thing as you."

"Let's go and switch defense with Dong Zhuo. He goes to the palace, and we attack him from behind."

Cao Cao had other purposes, but there is no need to say them.

"I am willing to be the vanguard of the upper army."

"Okay!" Cao Cao said without hesitation, "How many people did you bring?"

"Five hundred brave men are enough!"

The group rode their horses at full speed and rushed towards the north gate.

On the way, Zhang Liao urged his military practice, and an invisible force connected with the three hundred troops behind him, generating a tide of troops.

The impact force of his troops moving forward became stronger and stronger as the march progressed, gradually giving rise to an invincible momentum.

This is Zhang Liao's innate talent.

The palace was not far from the north gate, and we soon approached our destination.

Cao Cao watched from afar and activated the military strategy of watching the fire from the other side of the river.

This military strategy is the best at detecting the enemy.

[You used the strategy of watching the fire from the other side of the river to check the enemy's situation. You saw through the strength of Dong Zhuo's troops guarding the north gate.]

The area around the north gate is also covered by a layer of energy that is difficult for ordinary people to see.

This is the force driven by a good strategist or military general, connecting the energy of heaven and earth, with the purpose of making it unpredictable and impossible to judge.

However, when Cao Cao adopted the strategy of watching the fire from the other side of the river.

In his eyes, one can discern the truth from the false.

He saw a wisp of qi and blood interweaving with the weapons, forming a column of air, which was the so-called qi and blood wolf smoke.

Based on the degree of condensation of the Qi and Blood wolf smoke, one can roughly determine the number of soldiers on the city wall and other information.

"In addition to the defenders on the city walls, there are also ambushes hiding in the surrounding buildings. There are about 500 of them, one in the open and one in the dark, supporting each other from top to bottom."

Cao Cao stated his observations.

Zhang Liao was also preparing a military strategy and looking out.

But he couldn't see through the truth at a glance, let alone hidden ambushes.

However, he believed in Cao Cao's judgment: "Please give the order to the army, how should we fight?"

Cao Cao: "You are responsible for attacking the mansion fifty steps south of the city.

If I am right, Dong Zhuo has been staying there for the past few days, and the leader of the remaining troops is also there. If you attack the leader, the other troops will naturally be led by your nose."

"Just do as the superior army said."

Zhang Liao said, "General, please take care of yourselves. I will leave now. Will we meet up here after the battle?"

"It depends on the situation and you can decide for yourself," Cao Cao said.

Zhang Liao and the five hundred elite armored soldiers behind him prepared for battle at the same time.

His horse-fighting weapon was a long halberd, also known as a crescent halberd, made of patterned steel.

At his current rank, he does not have any precious Mohist weapons or engraved patterns that can connect him to the power of heaven and earth.

He also had a long sword hanging around his waist, which was his melee weapon.

"Break the strong formation and charge the camp!"

Zhang Liao lightly squeezed the horse's belly.

The horse's abdomen tightened and it suddenly jumped out, leaping several feet at an incredibly fast speed.

This is the military's horse riding technique. If used well, it can achieve unity between man and horse, increase the horse's speed over a short distance, and increase the power to break through the formation.

Liu Bei was good at horse riding.

He let the horse carry him across the Tan River and escaped the pursuers. His ability to escape was comparable to that of Cao Cao in history.

Of course, Liu Bei’s horse is also good, Dilu!
There are four famous horses in the Three Kingdoms period. Red Hare is the most famous, and Liu Bei's Di Lu is also one of the four.

The other two horses...were in the hands of Cao Cao later.

At this time, Zhang Liao took the lead, released his momentum, and rushed towards the mansion.

He was surrounded by elite soldiers, shooting crossbow arrows continuously.

The powerful arrows caught the soldiers stationed at the door of the mansion off guard.

Zhang Liao's horse rushed to the front of the mansion like an arrow.

The sharp edge of the crescent halberd pierced the air like a crescent moon, and a soldier guarding the door had his armor pierced through the throat in an instant.

Zhang Liao pushed forward, and the horse raised its hooves and kicked the gate of the mansion.

boom!
The horses' hooves merged with the soldiers' front, and with a crackling sound, they actually broke the wooden door directly, and half of the northern city seemed to be shaken!
Zhang Liao spurred his horse and rushed into the house.

The soldiers swarmed behind him.

In a moment, the house was filled with shouts and screams.

This Zhang Liao's ability to lead troops into battle is really strong!
The surrounding garrison troops saw that their leader was under attack. As Cao Cao had expected, they rushed to the house, creating a chaotic battle.

Cao Cao observed silently.

Zhang Liao not only understood what he meant, but also analyzed that he had other plans, so he tried to make as big a noise as possible to attract more people.

This invisible tacit understanding made Cao Cao very satisfied with his performance.

Within a quarter of an hour, almost all of Dong Zhuo's subordinates in the nearby areas were mobilized and contained.

At this time, Cao Cao once again used the strategy of watching the fire from the other side of the river, and he discovered that there was an area where, after Zhang Liao led his troops to start the battle, the surrounding war clouds and smoke all gathered in the direction of Zhang Liao's fight.

Only that place, although inconspicuous, is still surrounded by an unpredictable aura.

If Zhang Liao had not rushed into the camp and caused changes in the surrounding energy, even Cao Cao, who was watching the fire from the other side of the river, would not have been able to see the mystery hidden in that location.

Cao Cao said, "That's it, break the attack!"

Dian Wei, Xiao Xiang and their personal troops moved in that direction together.

Cao Cao activated the strategy of secretly crossing Chencang. A layer of energy filled the surroundings of the team, blending with the night, creating a strange visual and perceptual blinding effect, making it difficult to detect their tracks.

The troops advanced and approached the house, and the royal troops launched an attack from the left and right sides at the same time.

Dian Wei attacked fiercely from the front and directly broke the door into pieces.

Xiao Xiang did not take any action, but guarded Cao Cao with other personal troops.

With the addition of Dian Wei, the combat effectiveness of the entire royal army soared by more than one level.

When he fights with others, he has not used any skills yet, because the simplest punch can destroy all resistance.

Dian Wei’s tyrannical strength was enough to knock down any wall he encountered.

He charged in from the front and was shot at by crossbow arrows.

But his whole body is as strong as iron, and he has a layer of external aura like armor, so he is not afraid of ordinary crossbows at all.

There were frequent collision sounds in the house, and the air roared as if it was exploded!
With the support of other personal troops, when Cao Cao entered from the main gate, seven or eight people fell in the room. They were all elite soldiers under Dong Zhuo. They were hit head-on by Dian Wei and all killed.

Cao Cao walked deeper into the courtyard with his hands behind his back.

Xiao Xiang and Dian Wei looked at each other and became very curious about what Cao Cao was doing here.

Why did Cao Cao come here at this time?
Dian Wei rushed into the house first: "Sir, there is no one here."

Several more personal soldiers entered, and only after making sure there was no danger did Cao Cao come in.

There was not much space in the room, with a low mat in the middle.

There was an oil lamp on the low mat.

There are food and wine under the lamp.

Xiao Xiang touched it and found that the wine was still warm, not cold.

The window on one side was half open, and it seemed that the people in the house had just escaped before they broke in.

Cao Cao took a quick look and frowned, "Let's go."

Dian Wei muttered that it would be a waste if the food in the room was not eaten.

"The person shouldn't have gone far. Search nearby."

Cao Cao said he would search, but as soon as he left the house, he immediately made a gesture.

Xiao Xiang understood what he meant and made the sound of walking away with his companions.

In fact, Dian Wei and Cao Cao held their breath, turned around, stuck to the wall, and looked into the room.

Xiao Xiang was outside the courtyard, in charge of security.

He was becoming more and more curious about what the young master was doing here that required so much thought.
