"Search carefully for me!"

"These ministers are very cunning!"

"You still want to hide so much food from my Bingzhou Army?"

"We men are about to go to war with the Xiliang barbarians, and our lives are about to be lost. Why can't we bear to eat this food?"

"Pull them all away from me!"

Cao Xing, who was sitting on a tall horse, was arrogant and ordered his soldiers to ransack the house of a current official.

Under his horse, dozens of men and women in splendid clothes were crying one by one. ,

"General, give me a way to survive, these are our rations!"

"Yes, General, when we moved from Luoyang, the eastern capital, to Chang'an, we were already robbed of a lot of food by the Xiliang army. Now this food is just for winter!"

"Sir, please do well. Our family cannot starve to death.……"

Cao Xing's eyes were immediately filled with disgust.

He swung the riding crop in his hand heavily and hit the leader of the court, causing the man to howl in pain.

Cao Xing shouted nonchalantly,

"Before, you were given to the Xiliang Army, but now Chang'an City belongs to our Bingzhou Army."

"Why, if you don't want to give it to our Bingzhou army if you have food, do you still want to give it to the Xiliang army outside the city?"

When mentioning the Xiliang Army, I think of the scene where the Bingzhou Army was led by Lu Bu from Ding Yuan's command to Dong Zhuo's, and was bullied by the lieutenants of the Xiliang Army. Cao Xing could be said to have vivid memories of it. Eyes.

He heard the cries of these guys in his ears and saw that this street was full of officials hiding food and gold and silver.

Cao Xing couldn't help but draw out the iron bow behind him like lightning, and shot out an arrow, hitting him. This high-ranking official, who was trying to save his family's food, shot an arrow through his throat.

Cao Xing's arm strength was amazing. He was the best archer under Lu Bu's command. At this moment, in a rage, the power of this arrow was beyond comparison for a mortal. Even the triple armor can easily penetrate the throat!

"master……"

"You died so unjustly……"

"father! I want to report to Your Majesty, Cao Xing, you have harmed the loyal people in the court.……"

Cao Xing waved his hands coldly, and the archers behind him shot all the family members, big and small, with random arrows.

Then he pointed at the Gongqing's Home Road on this street with a cruel smile,

"Young men, listen to my general order. These officials in the DPRK and the Central Government intend to rebel. I will kill them all!"

"Copy out the food and money and escort them all back to the military camp!"

The city has not been broken yet, and you can enjoy the treatment of autumn wind.

What other good things are there?

"yes!"

Cao Xing's soldiers immediately went crazy.

They picked up weapons, bows and arrows and attacked the court officials on this street.

However, Cao Xing's brutal behavior was not fully carried out. When Cao Xing led his troops to search the last house, , a passing army horse stopped in its tracks, and the leading general, with a face as purple as jade and eyes as bright as stars, suddenly stepped forward to stop Cao Xing. The latter was about to get angry, but when he saw the general's face, he showed displeasure on his face He immediately put it away.

He said in a deep voice,

"General Wenyuan, why are you stopping me? I was ordered to collect military supplies. When Master Fengxian gave the order, I remember that you were also present!"

It turns out that the coming generals are Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan, one of the eight capable generals under Lu Bu.

In terms of status, the eight capable generals under Lu Bu all have the same rank, but in fact these eight people are not equal.

Lu Bu was a martial artist, and he valued martial arts first among his subordinates. The second is the ability to capture cities and territories.

Although Cao Xing is known as the best in bows and arrows, he is not the first among the eight generals in terms of martial arts and leadership ability. The first in martial arts is the extraordinary heroic Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan in front of him.

And the first in leadership, It was Gao Shun who commanded the most powerful trap camp in Bingzhou.

Therefore, Cao Xing, who could be domineering in front of the other eight generals, was like a docile rabbit in front of Zhang Liao. He only dared to refute, while his subordinates The soldiers, including himself, did not move at all.

"Of course I, Zhang Wenyuan, know the Lord's order, but look at which one you want to attack now?"

Cao Xing said with a sneer,

"Please forgive my humble eyes, aren't these the homes of those officials in the imperial court who wasted food? What else is different?"

The corners of Zhang Liao's mouth dropped slightly, and he scolded,

"It's simply too much! This is the home of Cai Bojie, a great scholar of the time!"

"What do you want to do?"

"Do you want your lord to be criticized by everyone in the world? Hurry up and retreat!"

Cao Xing scratched his head. He didn't understand anything like criticism.

He was just a rough guy who practiced archery hard. Leading troops to fight was what he cared about.

As for other political matters, he wouldn't consider anything at all.

Seeing that Zhang Liao was very resolute in protecting Cai Bozhe's mansion,

Cao Xing didn't want to have any conflict with him yet, so he could only give Zhang Liao a small hand as a gesture of apology, and then led his soldiers to drive away Carrying thirty or forty oxcarts of property and food, he dared to go in the direction of the Bingzhou Army camp in the city. Seeing

Cao Xing walking away, Zhang Liao turned his head and glanced at the small courtyard of Cai Yong and Cai Bojie, and couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.

Zhang Wenyuan actually admired Cai Yong's talents and knew Cai Yong's status in the hearts of scholars in the world, but he only stopped Cao Xing's barbaric behavior and did not leave any soldiers behind.

Helping Cai Yong guard the courtyard, he also knew that without Cao Xing, there would be other cruel people among the eight generals who might attack Cai Yong's courtyard, but Zhang Wenyuan could only do this.

After all, he had heard about it. Yesterday, when Wang Yun Situ presided over the court meeting for the first time, he was scolded by the world-famous Cai Bojie and Cai Zhonglang as a national thief and a country thief.

At present, Wang Yun and their state army are in an alliance. As long as they still Once he controls the city of Chang'an, Cai Bojie's life will never be easy.

Sure enough, after Zhang Liao led his troops and left, the servants of Cai Yong's house breathed heavily and sweated profusely to say"safe".

Cai Yong, who was in the study, put down his book. His daughter Cai Yan, who was standing next to him, discovered that the paper of the"Shang Shu" that his father was reading was full of traces of sweat.

"Father, it turns out you are worried too……"

When Cai Yong saw that his gaffe was discovered by his daughter, he did not hide it,

"Of course, the father is worried about being broken into by these jackals, tigers and leopards from Bingzhou."

"These classics that our family finally brought from Luoyang City will definitely be destroyed by them."

"At that time, how can a father go to see the Holy Master under the Nine Springs?"

Cai Yan knew that his father had always regarded books as his life.

In the past, Taishi Dong moved from Luoyang City to Chang'an to avoid the influence of the eighteen princes in Guandong.

However, his father did not even ask for any property or food in his own home. He only asked Taishi Dong to help him move. The family treasured classics, and of course Dong Zhuo, who appreciated his talent and learning, was also willing to help.

This matter became an important reason why his father had always been loyal to Dong Zhuo.

This is why his father used a series of tricks on Wang Yun in the court yesterday to kill Grand Master Dong. rants

"But……"

Cai Yan's red lips parted slightly, and she expressed her thoughts on the current situation:

"Master Dong has left, and now the Xiliang army is attacking Chang'an City."

"It can be seen that they will suffer a lot under the strong city of Chang'an with many soldiers, and they may even retreat to Xiliang."

"In the future, this land in Guanzhong will be filled with endless wars."

"Father, whether it is for your own wealth and life, or for those treasured classics,"

"It’s best to make plans early!"

Cai Yong was stunned for a moment. Hearing the analysis of the current situation by the pearl in his palm, his eyes were a little empty.

After a long time, he sighed quietly,"If there is someone who can inherit the will of Grand Master Dong, re-maintain the Han Dynasty and help the country, that would be great. OK……"

Cai Yan also said blankly,"Is there such a person...?"

At the same time, she was also thinking secretly in her heart,

"If there really is such a hero who can help the world, what's the harm if Yan'er and I marry him?"
