"Check? What's there to look up? The killers are all here, do you dare to say that they are not your Cao soldiers? Zhang Liao's eyes narrowed slightly, and he pointed to the corpse on the ground and said resentfully.

As soon as these words came out, Cao Cao reacted, and it turned out that the murderers in this case were these four men in military uniforms.

No wonder Zhang Liao misunderstood, these guys are dressed up like this, and the other party doesn't suspect that they are ghosts!

In order to find out the truth, Cao Cao immediately sent the Xiahou brothers to investigate and verify their identity.

"How? Do you see it all? Is it one of ours? Or someone...... Indiscriminate Filling? ”

In the face of Cao Cao's inquiry, the Xiahou brothers did not rush to reply.

After getting up and returning to Cao Cao's side, the older Xiahoudun quietly replied with a little embarrassment:

"Hui Lord, these four people...... Indeed, it is a soldier of our army. And they've been with us for at least four or five years. ”

In fact, the answer that Cao Cao wanted to hear the most was that these four people were not his own soldiers!

If you have to, it is better to be a new recruit, which is easier to "shake the pot".

But now that he heard that these four people were not only his own soldiers, but also veterans who had been in the army for four or five years, Cao Cao's face immediately became difficult to see:

"Huh? Really, really our people? Alas! This is a problem......"

Although he couldn't hear the other party's whispers, through their expressions, Zhang Liao had already guessed the answer.

Now that the identity is confirmed, there is no need to waste any more time.

While his face showed a fierce light, the crescent halberd in Zhang Liao's hand was also slowly raised, pointing directly at Cao Cao's face:

"You ungrateful, my master treats you like a brother, but you will take revenge! I, Zhang Wenyuan, am going to do the right thing for heaven today and take your dog's life! ”

If this matter is really Cao Cao's doing, then he will admit it, and it will be a big deal to lose his life.

But the current situation is that he was obviously framed, and he is a hundred unwilling to die for others!

So, without waiting for Zhang Liao to get closer, Cao Cao quickly stepped back and seized the last time to explain:

"Brother Wenyuan, I know that it seems that Cao is the most suspicious now. But believe me, it's not the case. General Hua and I are not only in love, but also allies of each other, Cao really has no reason to do this! And General Hua just saved my life, why did Cao harm him? It really doesn't make sense! ”

"Humph! What's not that makes sense? Zhang Liao looked incredulous, and said while chasing:

"You must be afraid that my lord will compete with you for the world in the future, so you will strike first. Am I right? ”

"Fight for the world?"

Under the protection of the Xiahou brothers, Cao Cao continued to retreat and said:

"Alas! I said Brother Wenyuan, now that the second Yuan has not withdrawn, whether Cao can pass this level or not, how can I give up the 'present time' for the sake of the ethereal 'future'? General Hua is not only my ally of Cao, but the 40,000 reinforcements he brought back are also looking at him. If General Hua is gone, Gao Shun and Yang Biao will probably abandon me. How could Cao do this kind of self-digging grave? ”

Seeing Zhang Liao's footsteps slowing down and seemed to have listened, Cao Cao was secretly happy in his heart, and hurriedly said again:

"Besides, if it was really Cao's doing, how could I send my own soldiers to wear military uniforms? Doesn't that mean not admitting yourself? Also, if it was really my hand, how could I stupidly follow Zilong to come here and risk my life? So please think twice, this matter is really not Cao's doing! ”

Not to mention, Cao Cao's words are really convincing.

Especially the last point, if Cao Cao is really behind the scenes, it stands to reason that he will never dare and will not come to the Chinese army camp again.

If you have to come, you can't bring only two people with you.

Doing so is really stupid and dangerous, and it is not in line with Cao Cao's character at all.

Therefore, after a little thought, Zhang Liao's heart finally loosened and stopped pursuing:

Well, that's not unreasonable. What about these four soldiers...... How do you explain that? ”

At this juncture, Cao Cao did not dare to be careless.

In order to highlight his honesty, after weighing it, he still chose to tell the truth:

"Don't hide it from the general, these four people are indeed soldiers of my Cao army. As for why they came here to commit murder, Cao didn't know anything. But in Cao's opinion, they are most likely bought by someone! ”

"Oh? You mean to buy murderous wounds? After listening to Cao Cao's analysis, Zhang Liao immediately frowned.

"That's right! These four people have been keeping to themselves for many years, and they have no two hearts. This sudden outburst is mostly due to being lured by people to do such a unconscionable thing. ”

"The one who bought the murderer...... Who could it be? ”

"Well...... Cao is not clear, but as long as it is someone who has an enmity with your army, it is possible. By the way, can the general tell me in advance about this incident? "Since Cao Cao entered the account, everything has been guessed, and he still doesn't know what happened.

As Cao Cao's suspicion continued to decrease, Zhang Liao's vigilance also decreased.

In addition, the incident itself had nothing to hide, so Zhang Liao asked Xiaoma to tell the incident again.

"Oh! It turned out that General Hua approached on the pretext of sending a letter......"

After listening to Xiaoma's description, Cao Cao nodded with understanding, but within two seconds, he suddenly remembered something again, pointed to the corpse on the ground and said:

"By the way, General, do you have a body search? Maybe the murderer really had a letter or a token on him? ”

Before Cao Cao came here, on the one hand, because of his heavy mood, on the other hand, Zhang Liao had already determined that Cao Cao was the real culprit in this case, so he didn't think about searching his body to collect evidence.

Now that Cao Cao reminded him like this, Zhang Liao realized that he seemed to have made a mistake, so he ordered someone to launch a search on the spot.

About five minutes later, I saw the guard Lu Si come to Zhang Liao with a bloodstained letter:

"General Qiyu, we found a letter on Jian Ding's body."

"Read!"

"Whoa!"

After clearing his throat, Lu Si unfolded the letter and read it aloud:

"Jane's Best Friend:

Please take off the head of Huaxing within three days.

After the matter is completed, I will let all wives and children leave as promised, and give a hundred taels of gold.

But if you fail, your loved ones will die.

Hope, so that you can do it yourself.

Dingbei. ”

Although the letter is only a few words, the meaning of the words is clear and clear.

After reading it, everyone present immediately figured out the reason.

Seeing that he really blamed Cao Cao, Zhang Liao immediately got up and made a compensation:

"General Cao, it was Wen Yuan who was reckless before, and I hope that the general is not strange!" After bowing and apologizing, I heard him ask again:

"By the way, who is Dingbei? Does any of you know? ”

Ding Bei is Lu Pu's teammate Bell, and the current Yuan Shaojun crossbow general.

Although he is a general, like Wu Jie, he has always been low-key, and rarely shows off on the battlefield.

Therefore, not only Zhang Liao and Lu Lingqi had never heard of it, but even Cao Cao and Xiahou brothers had no clue, and shook their heads to say that they didn't know.
