"It's... It's an emergency! Still... Please also Brother Zhang, don't blame!! ”

Wiping away the tears, Liu Cong held Cai's with one hand, touched the back of his brain with the other and laughed twice.

If you say that when you first met Zhao Si, he did have the intention of dragging the Zhang family of Hanzhong into the water, but... After learning that Cao Cao was going to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots, how could he still think about this.

"The prince of Hanzhong... Zhang Yong? I've heard of you! ”

"The prince of the world... Is this to be the enemy of the prime minister? ”

Feeling the dangerous aura coming from Zhang Yong's left and right, Yu Ban's eyes slowly narrowed... It's a bit dignified.

"General Yu Ban's words are serious! My Hanzhong Zhang family has a small business, how dare I be an enemy of Cao Chengxiang! Merely... After all, my second son and I have drunk and had a life-and-death relationship, and the second son has a request, how can I bear to refuse.

As... How about the general give a thin noodle today and leave? ”

Looking at this good general of the five sons who was respected by later generations... Zhang Yong's gaze wandered back and forth a few times.

Strictly speaking, Yu Ban is not handsome... However, perhaps it is a long-lasting battle, and there is always a steady momentum that is difficult to ignore.

"Does the prince know what he is talking about? Liu Cong... It is the person whom the prime minister has named to kill.

The people who kill each other, this world... No one can protect it! ”

Hearing Zhang Yong's words, Yu Jian unconsciously clenched the war knife in his hand.

He could die here, but... Liu Cong and Cai's must not get out of here alive.

That's what he is... Yu Ban's "loyalty".

"Huh! Are the Cao people so domineering? Speaking of... The person next to me seems to be the one you Cao clan will kill. ”

With a sneer, Zhang Yong remembered that Xiahou Yu once seemed to have said the same thing, the Cao family is strong... But if you want to cover the sky with one hand, it's still a little worse.

"General Yu Ban, long time no see!"

At the moment when Zhang Yong's words fell, Meng Qiu took off his mask and stood with Zhang Yong, looking at Yu Ban with a complicated expression.

As a disciple of the Sword God Wang Yue, during his tenure in the Dark Pavilion, Meng Qiu had several dealings with Yu Ban... It's just that no one would have imagined that the former colleagues would be like this when they said goodbye.

"Meng... Meng Qiu! ”

Seeing Meng Qiu, a hint of surprise flashed in Yu Ban's eyes.

When he learned that Meng Qiu had betrayed the Secret Pavilion, he secretly regretted it for a long time.

Unexpectedly, this rising generation of the "Dark Pavilion" is now under the command of the Zhang family in Hanzhong.

"Shizi, good means!"

Although he has only a few sides with Meng Qiu, Yu Ban can see that Meng Qiu has his own beliefs in his heart... Naturally, such characters will not easily succumb to others.

It seems that this son of Hanzhong, sure enough... As rumored, quite skillful.

"The general is overrated."

With a faint laugh, just as Zhang Yong chuckled, two short and long bird sounds suddenly came from the depths of the mountains and forests in the distance.

"It seems... The prince is determined to be the enemy of the prime minister today. ”

Hearing the voice from afar, and looking at Zhang Yong's expression again, Yu Ban's expression suddenly darkened, this kind of rumor... It can be different from what he agreed in advance, the other two teams, at this moment... I'm afraid that it will all be folded in Zhang Yong's hands.

"There's no way around it! To blame... It's to blame that the Cao clan is too strong, and there are millions of soldiers... Now that it occupies the seven counties of Jingzhou, if one person is let go... I'm afraid that after tonight, my Hanzhong Zhang clan will be deeply involved in the war.

For my Hanzhong Zhang's millions of people... The general and his sergeants are better to stay here completely. ”

With a wave of his big hand, the surrounding Hanzhong armor soldiers slowly raised the crossbow arrows in their hands and aimed at Yu Ban and his sergeants.

"Wait for you to break through immediately, and do everything you can... I also want to inform the Prime Minister about today's events! ”

"Tell the Prime Minister... If there is an afterlife, Yu Ban is still the general of the Cao family. ”

After whispering a whisper, Yu Ban suddenly burst out and grabbed the war knife in his hand... Directly past the sergeant Cao Jun in front of him, he rushed towards Liu Cong on Zhang Yong's side.

"Except for the ban... Others, not one left! ”

His eyelids raised slightly, and a cold voice came out of Zhang Yong's mouth.

Yu Ban is one of the few in the world... It would be a pity if a general who is good at training and knowing the formation dies here like this.

Although I am not sure that I will surrender to the ban, as long as I keep around, there will always be a day when my daughter-in-law will become a mother-in-law.

"Whew! Shout! ”

At the moment when he received Zhang Yong's order, hundreds of crossbow arrows were fired directly at Sergeant Cao Jun... Shot those dozens of sergeants into hedgehogs.

Of course, the treatment suffered by Yu Ban was higher than that of those Cao Jun in a sense.

Because at the moment when Yu Ban rushed out, he was besieged by a refining god led by Wei Yan and several refining generals.

Ten rounds!

Twenty rounds!

Forty rounds!

In the fiftieth round of the fight, Yu Ban finally showed his decline under the siege of everyone, and was swept to the ground by Wei Yan at the right time, and passed out.

"Metropolitan Governor, fortunately, I am not dishonored!"

Seeing that the armor soldier on the side took out the prepared rope and tied it up tightly, Wei Yan and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Yu Ban and Wei Yan were both in the early stage of refining gods, after all, they had been on the battlefield for a long time, and their fighting methods were much higher than Wei Yan's... If you want not to hurt your life... Subduing the ban is indeed not an easy task.

"Clear traces! It won't be long before Cao Jun's elite cavalry will come here again, and before that... Then the brothers under his command should be careful and don't leave clues. ”

You can despise Cao's scouts, but you must not despise the Dark Pavilion, once the Cao Junjing Cavalry does not find any clues, they will inevitably ask the Dark Pavilion for help.

As the world's top spy organization, the Dark Pavilion is not only strong because of his background and power... It also has the ability to peel off the cocoon and trace the source.

Half an hour later, after completely covering up the traces of the fight, Zhang Yong and his entourage took Liu Cong and Cai's to retreat along Shannan and turned to Nanxiang.

……

Xiangyang, the state pastoral house.

The Governor's Mansion, which was supposed to be laughing and celebrating, suddenly became quiet and terrible at this moment of the night.

The armor soldiers were all around, and the maids who came and went didn't even dare to take a breath.

In the lobby, I saw Cao Cao sitting in the main seat with a gloomy expression, and on the left and right sides stood Xiahoudun, Xiahouyuan, Zhang Liao, Zhang He... Xun You, Liu Ye, and Cheng Yu were important ministers who accompanied the expedition.

"Haven't found any trace of Wen Ze yet?"

Staring downward... The third wave of scouts, Cao Cao's voice contained endless anger.

"Back to the Prime Minister... We searched all over the barren mountains and deep forests, and at the same time sent several teams of elite horsemen to search along the pipeline, although we found the bodies of hundreds of soldiers, but we found no trace of General Yu... I'm afraid, I'm afraid that General Yu has suffered an accident. ”

Glancing at Cao Cao in fear, the scout bowed his head deeply...

"I know the true picture!"

"Continue to send more manpower to include a radius of thirty miles of barren mountains into the search range, no matter what you do, whether you dig three feet into the ground or turn the bottom up... In short, the true appearance must see people in life, and corpses in death. ”

"No!"

After receiving Cao Cao's instructions, the scout secretly breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly received the order, and quickly retreated.

There are too many bigwigs in the hall, every time I take a breath... It makes people feel dizzy and suffocated.

"Gongda, Zhongde, what do you think... Who did this? ”

After the scout left, Cao Cao bowed his head and was silent for a moment... Fang Cai raised his head and looked at Xun Yu and Cheng Yu.

Now thousands of fine horses have been scattered to investigate the whereabouts of Yu Ban and Liu Cong, but so far...

In fact, Cao Cao also knew in his heart that Yu Ban was only afraid that he would be more auspicious.

In the battle of the Southern Expedition, Bowang and Xinye successively lost 100,000 troops, not to mention the death of Xiahoulan, and now they have lost the good general Yu Ban.

How could he swallow this breath? No matter who is behind it, he will do whatever it takes... Destroy it.

"My lord, I'm afraid that this matter will be difficult to judge for a while. Liu Cong, as the pastor of Jingzhou, has only been in power for a few days, but... After all, he inherited Liu Biao's legacy. This matter may have been done by the seven counties of Jingxiang who were committed to Liu Cong, or it may have been done by Liu Qi of Jiangxia, after all, father and son... Although the two met each other for the position of Jingzhou Mu, they had brotherhood after all. ”

Arching his hand towards Cao Cao, Xun You replied in a low voice.

There are too few clues at hand these days, even if you speculate... can only get an approximate range, if you want to find out who is behind the scenes, you still have to look at the clues found in the follow-up of the dark pavilion.

"Lord, Gongda is right! … This matter still needs to be discussed in the long run, since the other party intercepted Liu Cong, it means that the other party has a certain purpose, as long as it is at the right time, the other party will naturally push Liu Cong out, before that... We just have to be patient. ”

"And General Yu Ban... Since the body of General Yu Ban has not been found, it means that General Yu Ban is still alive! It is not ruled out that the other party wants to use General Yu Ban as a bargaining chip... to achieve some purpose. ”

Looking at Xun You, Cheng Yu then echoed.

"There is no one else here, why should you two hide it!"

Facing the eyes of Xun You and Cheng Yu, Cao Cao's voice seemed to be a little hoarse.

"You're actually trying to say... Royalty, right! ”

Some things seem foggy, but... Wanting to know the result is not as troublesome as you think.

Liu Cong, as the son of Liu Biao, the lord of Jingzhou! In whose hands will this identity and status play the greatest role?

Royal house! Only the royal family!

As the only two remaining princes of the Liu family, those in the court would never watch Liu Cong fall into prison and break a large arm.

Originally, he was still wondering why those people in the DPRK and China did not move for a long time, but he never thought... Arrangements have already been made, waiting for him here.

Merely... What makes people wonder is that when did those old stubborns in the court learn this method?

"Lord!"

Hearing Cao Cao's words, everyone in the hall looked solemn and subconsciously lowered their heads.

Although they are unhappy with Liu Xie, Dong Cheng and Fu Wan in their hearts, but... After all, these things are not something they can comment on at will.

Although the Han family has declined, the rules that can be passed down for hundreds of years are still there.

As long as they have the name of the Han family on their heads, they must follow! Of course... This is also what Cao Cao wants to see!

The gentleman and the minister are suitable, but in the end it is just a joke.

......

To rescue Liu Cong, Zhang Yong secretly made countless calculations, but fortunately... The result was the same as Zhang Yong's speculation, with Liu Xie and the royal family sheltering from the wind and rain in front and attracting firepower, it was indeed a group of wise men in Cao's camp.
