"I will be here!"
"I will lead 20,000 soldiers, prepare food and supplies, and rush to Zhicheng to defend it. If the enemy is short of food and supplies, they will surely attack Zhicheng fiercely.
I want you two to defend the city for at least ten days. Can you do it?"
Cao Cao had a keen eye.
Among the brothers under his command, no one can compare to Cao Ren in terms of the ability to defend the city.
He was even praised by some later historians as the best city defender during the Three Kingdoms period!
No one except Cao Ren could take on the responsibility of defending Zhicheng.
"I will lead the troops!"
After Cao Ren and Zhang Liao responded, 50,000 of the 150,000 troops in Xianyang City had been used.
At this time, Cao Cao looked at the extremely tall Pan Feng and said in a deep voice:
"The enemy knows our situation perfectly. I want to make them think I have sent all my troops out of Xianyang City, so they won't be complacent. I can only rely on you, General."
The latter bowed and said, "Please give your orders, Lord Cao."
Cao Cao nodded and said bluntly:
"General Pan, you must mobilize 30,000 troops to engage the enemy head-on. If necessary, you must make the enemy believe that you have at least 80,000 men under your command.
"I, the commander-in-chief, will now hand over this banner bearing the Chinese character Cao to the general. I hope the general can help to dampen the enemy's spirit! When the time comes, I will personally lead the army and attack the enemy's main camp!"
Pan Feng took the responsibility and said, "I will obey your orders!"
Cao Cao continued to order: "Where is Dian Wei?!"
"I will be here!"
"I will give you 10,000 elite soldiers. You will be stationed at Xianyang Palace during the day and outside the imperial city at night. You must not disturb His Majesty's rest."
After hearing this, Dian Wei suddenly became unhappy.
Why are all the others killing the enemy?
But I have to be a bodyguard?
Cao Cao glared at him and said angrily:
"You fool! If we all leave, who will protect His Majesty?
If we return victorious from this battle, and His Majesty is safe and sound, you, Dian Wei, will be the greatest hero of this battle!"
He has his own concerns.
Ying Yuan is the hope for the future of Daqin and must not be lost.
Today, powerful officials are in power, and people like Huo Guang are all ambitious. If 150,000 soldiers and horses come out in full force, I am afraid Your Majesty will be in danger!
In fact, Ying Yuan's predecessor had thought of using an army of 150,000 to purge the government and the country.
But he didn't dare.
Because the forces involved are so huge.
Moreover, among the 150,000-strong army, many were the men of the Four Expeditionary Generals.
Cao Cao has always been good at judging people.
He spent several hours finding all the people in the camp who were suspected to be the Four Generals, and planned to take them all to the battlefield.
In other words, the 10,000 people given to Dian Wei were all loyal to Ying Yuan.
However, Cao Cao believed that this was actually Ying Yuan’s true thoughts!
Taking advantage of the national crisis, everyone in the government and the country will be massacred!
Your Majesty, you are truly a wise ruler!
After realizing the seriousness of the matter, Dian Wei accepted the military order without any hesitation.
Cao Cao was filled with great ambition at this moment. He looked around at his generals and shouted, "We will win!"
"We will win!"
The generals followed suit.
In an instant, those two words spread throughout the army.
He had just been promoted to Minister of War by the emperor during the morning court session.
Now we start to deal with the enemy.
The speed is quite fast.
After today, a saying like this spread among the Qin army:
Cao Cao summons his troops, confident of victory.
"Your Majesty, I, Cao Cao, will live up to your grace and win this battle. I will dedicate my life to assisting you in becoming the greatest emperor of all time!"
At this moment, Cao Cao was very optimistic about the future of Qin.
Because the Qin Dynasty has a wise ruler like Ying Yuan!
