Three Kingdoms: The Reverse Son of the Guan Family, Dragon Blessing Jingxiang
Chapter 724 Cao Cao: I don’t trust them
At dawn, the sun rises from the unobstructed horizon. When the sun is closed, the withered yellow walls are reflected in orange, which is cold and desolate.
Still at the foot of this city gate.
The dialogue between father and son Jia Xu and Jia Mu finally came to an end.
The last two sentences were asked by his son Jiamu respectively.
——"When will the barbarian soldiers arrive at Yangping Pass?"
——"When will King Wei set out to escape?" 』
Father Jia Xu's answer was to give two dates, namely:
"Three days later——"
"Two days later——"
In other words, the barbarians arrived... Yangpingguan City was defeated three days later, and Cao Cao took the trail that only Jia Xu and Jia Kui knew, it was two days later——
Capture Cao Cao...
To submit this certificate of nomination, time is still tight and difficulty still exists!
…
…
Outside Yangping Pass, the Shu army did not feel frustrated at all because of the failure of the attack on Yangping Pass.
In their eyes, Cao Jun, who had run out of food, seemed to be a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. Every additional day it was consumed, the lamb waiting to be slaughtered became more delicious.
On the contrary, at night, a huge bonfire was lit on the school field outside the Shu army camp, and a large number of soldiers gathered around, clapping and applauding from time to time.
And under the reflection of the bonfire, a burly man with a shaggy beard and skin as dark as iron...like a furious lion was meeting a man with muscles all over his body, as if the spirit of the mountains and rivers were condensed into one body, and it was revealed everywhere. Men whose wild strength should not be underestimated grappled together.
The former is none other than Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide, the three generals of the Han army.
The latter is Wutu Gu, the vanguard leader of the barbarian army...
Speaking of which, the barbarian army is about to arrive tomorrow, and the vanguard leader Wu Tu Gu came a day early. He just met Liu Bei, the general of Han Zuo, and discussed how to cooperate with the attack after the barbarian army arrived tomorrow. His martial temper was aroused. I couldn't help but suggest it.
I heard that there was a black general in the Shu army, who was known as the God of War, and had courage that no man could match...
As the first warrior of the barbarians, the King of Ugo was dissatisfied with his stubbornness and felt very itchy, so he proposed to compete with the black general.
It is precisely because of this... Right in front of this military tent, under Liu Bei's instruction, the soldiers retreated one after another and formed a large circle to make room for this unprecedented contest.
——Wrestling!
This is the most direct collision between two macho men.
Zhang Fei was the first to attack, locking the opponent's waist with his hands like iron pliers, trying to overwhelm the opponent with strength.
However, Wu Tu Gu was not to be outdone. He took a deep breath, his bones made a slight explosion, stood firmly on his feet, and grabbed Zhang Fei's wrist with his backhand. The two of them suddenly fell into a stalemate.
Zhang Fei's face turned red, and his veins popped out. He roared angrily, as if there was a fire burning in his body, and his strength increased sharply;
Wutu Bone, on the other hand, is as steady as a mountain, taking every step, and every breath seems to be accumulating more terrifying power. The two of them were going back and forth, sometimes Zhang Fei would press Wu Tu Gu to tilt slightly, and sometimes Wu Tu Gu would use his amazing toughness and explosive power to turn the situation around.
It is hard to imagine that Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide, who were the enemies of thousands of people, had never been victorious in single combat in the past, but this time... they were beaten to a draw by a barbarian!
The combat effectiveness of the barbarians can be seen from this——
Finally, there was another burst of dust, and Zhang Fei was unable to do anything to Wu Tu Gu, and Wu Tu Gu could not completely suppress Zhang Fei.
Finally...the two people's eyes met, and the fierceness during the competition suddenly disappeared, replaced by understanding laughter and sympathy between each other...
"You are really strong. Even compared to that Lu Bu kid back then, I'm afraid it's my fault. If it were my second brother, I'd be even better than you in wrestling - —”
Zhang Fei praised Wu Tu Gu from the bottom of his heart...
Wu Tu Gu also responded with a smile, "Same for you. In the barbarian camp, I heard Mr. Zhuge say that the war god Hei Zhang Fei was unparalleled and could be defeated by ten thousand people. I didn't believe it at that time. After today's competition, I believe it... The name of the God of War, Brother Black...deserves it!"
Wrestling also resulted in a feeling of mutual sympathy...
For a moment, Zhang Fei and Wu Tu Gu stood shoulder to shoulder as if they were brothers...
"Drink, let's drink tonight... There's no winner in this wrestling, but we have to decide the winner after drinking, right? Ah... hahahaha..."
Zhang Fei laughed happily.
Liu Bei, who had witnessed the whole wrestling match, heard what his third brother said and quickly advised him: "Yide? No... The barbarian army will arrive tomorrow and they will attack Yangping Pass the day after. You can't drink and ruin things!"
"Brother, just keep your heart in your stomach. Don't worry... I can't make a mistake... Then Cao Jun's food will be empty tomorrow! Are you hungry the day after tomorrow? Are you worried? Huh?"
Hearing what Zhang Fei said, Wu Tu Gu touched the sparse hair, and then laughed and said: "Does he have hair? Does Cao Cao have hair? Not even one!"
Having said that...
"Hahaha..." Under the leadership of Zhang Fei, all the soldiers watching laughed.
It is clear that the atmosphere here is completely different from the Wei army in Yangping Pass who is about to be hungry, bitter and grudged... and is in a desperate situation.
yes!
Is there any use for having too many soldiers?
Without food, you are no longer a paper tiger. Ten thousand transparent holes can be poked out overnight——
Seeing this, Liu Bei felt that the officers and soldiers of the three armies were a little slack. He wanted to persuade them not to be careless, but he was stopped by Fazheng.
Fazheng whispered to Liu Bei: "Let the soldiers be happy. In fact, the decisive battle in Hanzhong... has been over since the Wei army's food and grass were burned to ashes... since the barbarians returned to the Han Dynasty. The only variable now is , can we catch that thief Cao! If we do, we have a chance to completely end this chaotic world!"
Hearing what Fazheng said, Liu Bei was slightly moved. As expected, he stopped trying to persuade his third brother and allowed his third brother to have a good time with the barbarian general, but he...
But he couldn't help but raise his head and look up at the sky.
The atmosphere was heightened to this point. At this moment, he seemed to recall the scene when he and Cao Cao Qingmei were making wine in Xuchang City...
Cao Cao's words, "The only heroes in the world are the emperor and Cao'er", even though times have changed, they echo in Liu Bei's ears now, and they are still as deafening and enlightening as ever——
The past is like smoke, and twenty years later, the green plum wine...will it finally come to an end?
For a time, Liu Bei's mood became a little complicated.
But just for a moment, he took a deep breath and murmured.
"Brother Meng De, things in this world are impermanent and courtesy comes back. This time... I am going to invite you into the Han army's camp. You and I will continue the preface again and finish the story of the green plums making wine——"
…
Everything is going according to plan.
So far, so good.
When the news about the barbarians, Chang'an, and Hanzhong reached Luoyang via flying pigeons, the high-hanging hearts of Guan Lin and all the civil and military officials finally settled down safely.
Ma Liang has laid out the map from Hanzhong to Chang'an.
The five extremely eye-catching escape roads... such as Qishan Road, Chenchang Road, Baoxie Road, Tuangxie Road, Ziwu Valley... are all specially marked, as if... In Ma Liang's view, the focus of their discussion should start from here. The victory or defeat in one battle, how to expand the victory in this battle? How to catch Cao Cao!
But Guan Lin... There was a hint of loneliness in his eyes that suddenly appeared for some unknown reason...
It's like, all the agencies have been calculated... Really planning to catch Cao Cao on the day when the dawn of the people comes, but a sense of emptiness arises spontaneously, as if his mission has been completed, and the whole body It's all empty.
Listening to Lu Xun, Jiang Wei, and Ma Liang discussing Cao Cao's escape route, Guan Lin seemed to have taken a long time to calm down, and he chanted lightly.
"Capture Cao Cao, no need to discuss anymore..."
Having said this, Guan Lin bit his lower lip and tried hard to calm down his complicated thoughts. He emphasized again: "Now Cao Cao can't fly even if he puts on wings... But for us, the top priority... is to deal with a certain person." Old friend."
As he spoke, Guan Lin's eyes drifted downward from the position of Hanzhong on the map...
Paddling through Shangyong and Fangling, across Xiangyang and Fancheng, across Wancheng and Xuchang... and finally landed outside Hulao Pass in the east of Luoyang, not far from Hulao Pass... The one between Hulao Pass and Hulao Pass Between Chenliu County, there is a place called "Suan Zao County".
There...the last famous general of the Wei Dynasty, Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan, was stationed...
It was also the place where Cao Cao and Chen Liu raised their troops twenty-six years ago and called on the eighteen princes to attack Dong Zhuo's alliance!
There are heroes vying for the throne, it’s the beginning of this troubled world——
And as Guan Lin said this...
Everyone's eyes turned, and Lu Xun was the first to react, "Yun Qi is going to deal with Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan, right?"
Guan Lin nodded...
Hearing this sentence, Ling Tong's eyebrows trembled slightly in the official office. Obviously... every time he mentioned Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan, it always made his heart startle, and it always reopened his long-lasting story. remember.
"It's time to make a break——"
"End——"
Ling Tong thought so...
Lu Xun was already sighing: "Even under the current situation, the morale of the Wei army is low... But Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan's words, most likely... most likely..."
Lu Xun was about to speak but stopped...
After all, he was from Jiangdong, and he had experienced the fiasco in Xiaoyaojin. The name Zhang Liao... always had an unusual influence on Jiangdong's civil and military circles, like a nightmare.
"hehe…"
Guan Lin met Lu Xun's gaze, as if what Lu Xun and all Jiangdong civil and military officials were thinking were instantly realized and understood.
He said lightly, "Tell all the Jiangdong soldiers who have experienced that Xiaoyaojin incident..."
Speaking of this, Guan Lin's tightly squinted eyes suddenly opened, and suddenly released a confident and dazzling light.
He pointed to the location of Suanzao County on the map and said solemnly: "Right here, I will take you to completely expose the nightmare of the past——"
this…
Guan Lin's words frightened everyone present.
Lu Xun continued, "No matter how many soldiers we have, Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan will probably not give in."
"It's very simple, then beat him until he is convinced——"
Guan Lin left such decisive words at the end, and immediately walked towards the government office...
He is about to start the final deployment of the battle to "get rid of the nightmare and defeat Zhang Liao"!
There is never another moment when his eyes, his cheeks, and his words...are more determined than at this moment!
Of course, his words...especially the last half of the sentence "Then beat him until he is convinced", the lingering reverberation lingers in my ears——
…
…
At Yangpingguan, inside Cao Cao's official residence, Zhang Fang, the head-wiping priest of the Five Pecks of Rice Sect, took his eldest sister Zhang Yulan and niece Zhang Qiying to kneel on one knee in front of Cao Cao.
At this moment, through the mouths of these two women, they told everything about what happened in Chengdu. Of course... regarding the part where a man and six women slept together, they both had a tacit understanding and did not mention it at all.
"Zhongde...Zhongde is actually in the barbarian camp!"
Cao Cao looked a little lonely...
But... this situation couldn't give him much lonely time at all. He had to quickly put Cheng Yu's death... behind him.
In fact, when the threat comes, Cao Cao is more steely than anyone else!
"Sure enough..." Cao Cao took a deep breath and never mentioned the topic about Cheng Yu again. He just squinted his eyes and sighed: "I guessed it right, those barbarians did not come to help me, but were attacked by the Zhuge villager. Enchantment is here to help the thieves and punish the orphans——"
When Cao Cao said this, he couldn't help but walk to the door of the official office...
In fact, outside the official office, everyone in the Wei army was talking about it.
Even those discussions were noisy and noisy... many of them reached the official office and reached Cao Cao's ears through the doors and windows.
"I heard that the barbarians only sent a vanguard force this time, with no more than 10,000 people? If so...how much food do they have? Is it enough to feed hundreds of thousands of us here?"
"At least, the king has not ordered Xiaohu to distribute the grain this time, and no unlucky grain officer has died because of it. This shows that... the king is still confident based on grain and grass alone!"
"That's right...perhaps, those barbarians are tough, and your Majesty is planning to defeat the Shu army by attacking them from both inside and outside? If you can defeat the Shu army, you will also be able to steal their food?"
"Speaking of which, isn't our Mr. Anguoting Hou Cheng in the barbarian army? If the Shu army is defeated by internal and external attacks, will he go back to his old business...make the thieves' army into dried meat and eat it?"
"Ugh, can you please stop saying these...disgusting..."
"What's the point? In our entire Wei army, who doesn't know that Mr. Jia Xu, Jia Wenhe, Cheng Yu...Mr. Cheng Zhongde, one of them harms heaven but not Wenhe, and the other harms Yin's virtue but not Zhongde... We Well...just get used to it, just get used to it-"
All kinds of comments continued to come out.
There are those who are optimistic, but there are also those who are suspicious and suspicious...Cao Cao listened to Zhang Yulan and Zhang Qiying's words, and then heard the uproar, and his expression became more gloomy and indifferent.
After two days of rest, the headache that had subsided slightly showed some signs of attack——
Cao Cao slowed down for a moment, then lowered his voice and said with some annoyance and frustration:
"At the beginning, during the Battle of Guandu, Gu Ye was in dire straits because of food. At that time... Gu Ye still had three days of food, and he was about to be defeated like a mountain. But Xu You finally arrived... and this time, Gu Ye was waiting. Finally, I hope to wait for a slight improvement in the situation of the war, but unfortunately...it's a pity...that there has been no improvement!"
Cao Cao's tiger eyes had lost their luster, and he looked at Zhang Fang: "Zhang Dajiu... The current situation, to be honest with you, the Wei army's food tonight is the last meal, and there will be no food tomorrow morning! I can't wait. At noon, the morale of the army will mutiny, and before dusk... There is no need to use barbarian soldiers to join forces with the Shu army to attack, Yangping Pass will collapse and disintegrate in advance..."
Not only was there no luster in his eyes, Cao Cao's voice was also full of vicissitudes of life, but he did not hide anything and truthfully told the senior officials of the Five Dou Rice Sect in front of him: "Gu is in a desperate situation. If he is not careful, Gu's life may be at risk." To leave it here..."
At this point, Cao Cao stopped talking and his tone became silent.
Zhang Fang knelt down with a "click", he cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty can tell me this... This shows that Your Majesty has trust in me and the Five Dou Rice Sect... I... I... I will definitely stick to it no matter what the situation is." By your side, I swear to live and die together with you!"
At this point, Zhang Fang's head knocked to the ground with a "bang", which also made Zhang Yulan and Zhang Qiying knock their heads off together.
"Okay... okay..." Cao Cao quickly helped Zhang Fang, Zhang Qiying, and Zhang Yulan up... He continued with a sincere and sincere voice: "I have experienced the Yuan family being torn apart and falling apart... I understand too well, Da Wei When he was strong, there were good people around him, and everyone was loyal, but now it's different, the situation is different, Zhong Yao, who was born in Yingchuan, has betrayed Yu Gu, who can be relied on? Haha... More than 300,000 troops, Hundreds of civil and military personnel, you are the only ones I can trust now..."
Cao Cao stared at Zhang Fang with extremely trusting eyes. This trust was more like what he felt towards the Five Dou Rice Sect and the Celestial Master.
In fact…
Ever since Zhang Lu surrendered and said the words "I would rather be Cao Gong's slave than Liu Bei's guest", Cao Cao has been deeply committed to the Five Pecks of Rice Cult.
That's why, when he was in this dilemma, he couldn't trust anyone, but he only left the task of escaping in the hands of the Five Pecks of Rice Cult.
"I plan to use these more than 300,000 soldiers as bait... When they are in an uproar due to lack of food, and when the enemy army is in chaos, Zhang Da Jijiu will select an elite force of a thousand people to escort Gu to escape from Hanzhong. ... Gu's foundation is in the north. As long as Gu can return to Yecheng alive, even if the situation is extremely unfavorable, Gu will be confident that he can start over and turn the tide... Gu Te specially left some food, enough to cover the expenses of thousands of people on the two-month journey! Whether the orphan can be sent back to Yecheng depends entirely on the Five Dou Rice Cult——"
Speaking of which…
Cao Cao solemnly bowed his hands to Zhang Fang.
And this... was also the first time that Cao Cao solemnly handed over to others after becoming the King of Wei.
For a moment, Zhang Fang, Zhang Qiying, and Zhang Yulan felt that Nuo's heavy burden was weighing on them, even making them unable to breathe.
Zhang Fang was silent for a long time before he spoke, "Your Majesty, I will tell Mr. Jia and General Jia right now... Let them prepare and evacuate together tomorrow——"
The first Mr. Jia is Jia Xu, who is the only military advisor in Cao's camp and a counselor who has made great contributions to the Wei Dynasty!
The second General Jia is Jia Kui. In history, he was a meritorious official of Cao Wei for three generations. If the original trajectory of history is followed, Cao Cao specially ordered him to preside over the funeral before his death. He was a minister promoted by Cao Cao and trusted by him.
What's more, yesterday... Cao Cao specially called the two of them into his carriage...
This made Zhang Fang think that Jia Xu and Jia Kui must be the people that the King of Wei wanted to take away this time.
It's just...
It was beyond Zhang Fang's expectation.
Just when he proposed to inform Jia Xu and Jia Kui, and was about to turn around and go out to make arrangements, Cao Cao waved his hand.
"Stop!"
"Ah..."
"No need to tell them..."
This... Zhang Fang was still in shock, Cao Cao's cold and fierce eyes had revealed a different kind of brilliance, he solemnly chanted: "I don't trust them--"
This...
With Cao Cao's words, Zhang Fang was stunned.
Yesterday... Jia Xu and Jia Kui were still in the carriage yesterday... Now the king Cao Cao's evaluation of them is... He can't trust them!
Then... Then what is the escape plan?
No...
Zhang Fang suddenly realized that not only him, but Zhang Yulan also suddenly seemed to understand something.
Could it be... Could it be that Jia Xu and Jia Kui... are also part of the king's escape plan?
——『Could it be! 』
Zhang Yulan couldn't help but mutter in her heart: 『Could it be that the king is... The king is using them? 』
