Chapter 299: Friends
The voice was not majestic, nor was it ambitious, but Cao Cao was shocked on the spot as if he had fallen into a demon.
Not for anything else, just because the voice is so familiar. Although Cao Cao has never met that person again over the years, that voice has been deeply engraved in Cao Cao's green years and memories.
When they were still in Luoyang, they had similar interests and smells, and the two of them often went in and out of Qinglou and other places side by side, chatting and laughing about the past and the present, and even they went to rob the bride together, and watched the widow of the king of the Gobi take a bath;
Later, the Yellow Turban rebelled against Dong Zhuo and usurped the dynasty, and they parted ways because of their loyalty to the Han dynasty, one went to Jinan and the other went to Runan. By the time they met again, they were already world-famous court officials.
Cao Cao originally thought that it would be difficult to meet this person in this life, but he didn't expect the world to change. This man was the first to raise the anti-flag, so that not only did they have to face it head-on, but they also saw a third face so quickly.
He is Cao Cao's old friend in the past, the former robe, and now the puppet emperor of the Zhong family, Yuan Shu Yuan Highway!
Cao Cao watched the army under his command get up from the dust, his face was full of embarrassment, he stabilized his mind and laughed loudly at the opposite side: "Yuan Highway, Cao also wants to meet you, but unfortunately you are now noble, I am afraid that you will not look down on me, an old friend of the past."
Cao Mou walked here from Yanzhou, a distance of more than 1,000 miles, you don't know how to pour tea and water for Cao, and even use the dust and smoke in the sky to cover your old face tightly. Yuan Highway, how much do you can't see my old friend now? Does that thick dust want to cover your face, or do you want to shame you? ”
Cao Cao spoke, and the whole canyon was quiet.
Although Cao Cao's generals Xiahou Yuan, Cheng Yu and others could not have imagined that Yuan Shu would personally set up an ambush here, the soldiers under Yuan Jian and Ji Ling also did not expect that their "Majesty" would actually "drive" in person and stand in front of them at this moment.
Yuan Shu led the war horse and slowly walked down the mountainside, and behind him, in addition to Le Yu and Han Hao, there was actually a brave man, and of course, the most important thing was that there were tens of thousands of arrogant Praetorian Guards behind them.
"Long live my emperor, long live!"
Ji Ling, He Man and others took the lead in kneeling in the middle of the road, and all the soldiers behind them also knelt aside, their voices surging, and they looked boundless at a glance.
Yuan Shu waved his hand, looked at Cao Cao opposite from afar and said with a smile: "Meng De, the wind is strong on this mountainside, and I really can't hear it clearly. Did you just say that this dust has disgraced me, or did I disgrace my Yuan family?
Cao Mengde, I know that although you Cao Mengde and I are old friends, I have always been quite dissatisfied with me in my heart, and I am somewhat disdainful, and even feel that I can have today because of the shadow of my father. So, now that I am standing in front of you, would you like to repeat what you just said to me? ”
"Haha! Yuan Highway, Cao and your old friends for many years, your twists and turns around the door and door Cao are clear, do you think Cao will be afraid of you? Cao Cao took two steps forward with his hand on the Qingyu Sword and laughed loudly, "Yuan Highway, you Yuan Clan, the fourth generation and the third duke, should be dedicated to maintaining the discipline of the imperial court, but you betrayed the imperial court and betrayed the loyalty of your ancestors, isn't this another shame on your ancestors?" ”
"Presumptuous, Cao Cao dog thief, you are so rude to Your Majesty, why do you have a special self-respecting army and collusion with Lu Bu to rebel against Yong'an, who in the world does not know? Do you really think of yourself as a loyal servant of the Han Dynasty? Ji Ling, Liu Xun and the others were furious, and the swords in their hands came out of their sheaths and pointed directly at Cao Cao.
"Fuyi, you don't have to be excited, when I roamed the rivers and lakes in the past, I met a barking dog many times, and at that time I understood a truth: for this kind of vicious dog, you don't have to reason with it at all, what you have to do is to directly pull out his tongue, or twist his head off!"
Yuan Shu shook his head at Ji Ling, looked at Cao Cao with a long roar, and stared at the army: "Meng De, I know that what you said just now is just to use the radical method to make me face you head-on, so that you have the opportunity to try to find a glimmer of life from defeat." But alas, I'm telling you, those thoughts of yours are delusional! Your words of serving tea and pouring water are just jokes!
I am standing in front of you now, Meng De, your Cao Jiajun is a mule or a horse, just pull it out and walk it. Whether you want to use a stratagem or want to confront me head-on, just use it and let me see what your Cao family army gives
What confidence do you have to dare to bark in front of my army of 100,000! ”
"Ignition!"
"Beat the drums!"
As soon as Yuan Shu's words fell, Ji Ling shouted, and the athletes under his command lit the torch and held it high above their heads, and the Bifeng Gorge was suddenly blazing red, as if thousands of rounds of red sun were rising in the canyon, just like the white sun.
At the same time, like the flag bearer in his hand, dozens of soldiers carried several war drums to the front of the formation. The drumsticks were raised high from their hands, and then they fell violently, striking the drum so hard that it made an earth-shattering sound, like the tide crashing against a reef.
"Yuan Highway, do you want to fight Cao head-on?" Cao Cao pressed his sword and laughed, pacing to the front of the formation, "Cao has known you for so many years, and this is the first time I have seen you so strong." Thinking that back then, you Yuan Highway punished evil and promoted good young chivalry, and made a great reputation in Beijing, what kind of style was that? Even Cao admired it.
Who knew that soon, you would be like a sinking fish in the sea, and you would be wiped out in the vast sea of people. When I see you again, your chivalry, your character and your blood are gone, and you exude the shrewdness and philistine of a businessman.
Cao still thinks that you have become a vulgar villain from now on, and you will never have the style of the past again. It wasn't until he heard that you were the emperor in Shouchun that Cao suddenly realized that you had been wearing a mask all these years.
Highway, Cao knows that you have a big plan, so you have changed your chivalry from the past to become a dry bone in today's grave. Simply, today Cao can still see the chivalrous man who dominated the rivers and lakes again, this life is worthwhile, since you want to fight, then come, Cao will accompany you to the end! ”
"Boom!"
A drum sounded, and the big cloud in Yu Ban's hand was raised, and Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren and Xu Zhu rushed out of the camp with a slap of the war horse under their crotch at the same time, and flew straight to the center of Bifeng Gorge, and the arrogant aura in their mouths reached the sky.
"Xiahou Yuan under the command of the general Cao Gong, who has the courage to come forward to fight!"
"Cao Ren under the command of Cao Gong, who has the courage to come forward to fight!"
"Xu Zhu under the command of the general Cao Gong, who has the courage to step forward to fight!"
