In the first year of Yonghan, October 23, Da Sima Mansion.

Ding Yuan sat in front of the collapse, dressed in civilian clothes at home, his face was full of red light, and he laughed loudly at the young man who was sitting upright and kneeling below: "Meng De's talent is rare in the world, as a pillar of the country, I intend to let you be the captain of the school, are you willing?" ”

The young man is handsome and thin, tall and colorful, it is Cao Cao and Cao Mengde.

Cao Cao listened to Ding Yuan's words at this time, sneered in his heart, and said in his heart: Ding Yuan, a thief, supports the army and respects himself, coerces the emperor, cultivates party henchmen, and cronyism.

But he didn't dare to show it in his mouth, his face was happy, he got up and knelt down and said: "If you can serve under the account of the Great Sima, Cao Cao can't ask for it!" ”

Ding Yuan has long heard of Cao Cao, there is a furrow in his chest, he is a rare talent, if he can use it well, it is really a great luck. Therefore he withdrew from the crowd and talked with him for a long time.

At this time, I heard him readily agree, and I was overjoyed, but I didn't help him when I was in good health recently, I still lay on the collapse, and waved my hand from afar: "Mengde doesn't need to be polite, get up quickly, I can get Mengde's help, my Han Zhongxing is hopeful!" ”

Cao Cao got up according to his words, and saw Ding Yuan lying on the bed, as if his body was in good health, thinking of the purpose of this trip, and the trust of everyone, he had a plan in his heart. He took something from his waist and bowed down to present it: "My subordinates recently got a treasure knife by chance, blowing hair and breaking hair, extremely sharp, called the Seven Star Treasure Knife, I would like to dedicate it to Da Sima!" ”

Ding Yuan used to be a frontier officer, born into color, experienced in a hundred battles, naturally interested in sharp weapons and divine weapons, and said in surprise: "Oh? Since it is a divine weapon, it is natural to pay homage. ”

After saying that, he reluctantly got up and sat cross-legged.

Cao Cao was overjoyed, bowed down and walked in slowly with a treasure knife, and when he got closer, Cao Cao lowered his head and looked down at the ground, and suddenly the cold light burst out, and he was about to attack, when a voice sounded from the courtyard.

"Report to Da Sima, there is an urgent report from Chang'an's military situation!"

Ding Yuan's expression was solemn, he took the treasure knife in Cao Cao's hand, put it on his side, waved his hand to let Cao Cao sit aside, and said loudly: "Come in and report!" ”

Cao Cao's trip was entrusted by everyone to assassinate the thief Ding Yuan, just now it was a great opportunity, but he was disturbed by the urgent report, and he couldn't help but feel a little regretful, and a little lucky, if the person who came to report came a few steps late, Ding Yuan would die, and he might not be able to escape!

Coming in was the former general Zhang Liao, holding a roll of brocade silk in his hand, dressed in civilian clothes, and wanting to hang a long sword. Seeing Cao Cao kneeling and sitting aside, his face seemed to be different, although he was a little puzzled in his heart, he didn't think deeply, and hurried to Ding Yuan and presented the Chang'an Jinbo Battle report to Ding Yuan.

Ding Yuan took the brocade silk battle report, opened his hands, looked carefully, and saw that the handwriting on it was indeed Lu Xiaoshu's handwriting, crooked, different thicknesses, and the font was also different from the popular Lishu and small seals, and the more niche italics were barely similar, but there was a lack of pen and less drawing, and some words needed to be scrutinized to understand.

Ding Yuan watched carefully, although some of the words were written without pen and drawing, nondescript, but most of them could be recognized, understood the general meaning of the battle report, and the expression on his face turned from solemn to happy, and he reluctantly stood up, passed the brocade silk in his hand to Zhang Liao and said with a smile: "Feng Xianzhen is a god-given general, and he has defeated Dong Zhuo in Chang'an for more than half a month, and has captured Chang'an City." ”

Zhang Liao took the brocade silk, and saw a dense piece of ugly characters, which was shocking, dizzy, and said with a wry smile: "Fengxian fought bravely and was invincible, but this word was written like this, which made me really headache." ”

Ding Yuan's body was so bad that he couldn't stand for a long time, so he sat down in front of the couch and laughed: "Hahaha, that's true!" I also rely on guessing to get a rough idea of what it means. Seeing Cao Cao sitting upright on the side, he seemed to have something else on his mind, so he said: "Meng De is very knowledgeable, let him see the battle report, or he may be able to identify more." ”

Cao Cao heard the information of Lu Bu's victory over Dong Zhuo, and his heart was sad for a while, thinking that if he won this battle, the power of the Ding Yuan group would be more stable, and who else in the world would dare to stop him?

At this time, when he heard Ding Yuan's order, he hurriedly took the brocade silk battle report handed by Zhang Liao, and saw that although the handwriting was ugly, it was neat, but many fonts were simplified, but it was not difficult for him.

After careful consideration and deliberation, he read aloud: "Present to the Great Sima,

I led a large army to attack Dong Zhuo, but Dong Zhuo was too cunning, the walls were clear, and he retreated in the city and did not come out, and we attacked for several days, with many casualties.

Later, we all studied and decided to storm on three sides, leaving the West Gate not to fight, Dong Zhuo's people were uneven, and he fled from the West Gate after only two days.

We took advantage of the situation to occupy Chang'an City, chased them all the way and killed more than ten miles, beheaded 10,000 people, Dong Zhuo led the remnants of the army to flee in the direction of Tianshui County, we reorganized the soldiers and horses, prepared to continue the pursuit, and eliminated the remaining soldiers and horses of the traitor Dong Zhuo in one fell swoop.

On this matter, report it to Da Sima to know.

Lu Bu presented. ”

Cao Cao recited it in his mouth, but his heart was full of contempt, and it was okay if the words were written like this, after all, he was a military general, but this wording and sentence were too strange, right? It is also surprising that a mountain and field military general actually knows the truth of circumference and leakage, it seems that this person can have today's achievements, and it is not by nepotism.

Ding Yuan and Zhang Liao listened to Cao Cao's reading of the battle report, and they were so happy that they couldn't stop laughing, and after listening to Cao Cao's reading, Ding Yuan instructed Zhang Liao: "Immediately write a letter and send it to Chang'an, and order Feng Xian to lead the army to rest in Chang'an, and wait for the soldiers and soldiers to recover in order, and then go to pursue Dong Zhuo." ”

Cao Cao saw Zhang Liao taking the order and leaving, he sneered in his heart, a group of rice buckets, Dong Zhuo was defeated, and he didn't pursue to expand the results, but he wanted to rest? Such a delay in the fighter plane can also become a big deal, it is really shit luck!

Cao Cao wanted to present the battle report to Ding Yuan, but Ding Yuan said: "Meng De is not busy, I will report the war report to the emperor tomorrow, but who can know such a war report?" I also asked Meng De to copy a copy and polish the words and sentences, so that I could present it to the emperor. ”

Cao Cao received the order, went to the bookcase, took a blank brocade silk, and copied the war report concentratingly.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was already paper, but the quality of the paper was poor and it was not easy to preserve, so many important and depository words were recorded on bamboo slips and brocade silks.

Ding Yuan saw Cao Cao concentrating on writing, so he picked up the seven-star treasure knife offered by Cao Cao beside him, and saw that the knife was more than a foot long, and the seven treasures were inlaid with extremely sharp edges. After enjoying the game for a long time, seeing Cao Cao still writing by himself, fatigue hit him for a while, put the treasure knife on the table in front of him, leaned on the bed, and fell asleep.

Cao Cao worked hard to write a book, sprinkled with enthusiasm, and completed it in one go. After some retouching, the article is also a lot more splendid, and I am complacent. was about to offer it to Ding Yuan, but saw Ding Yuan leaning on the head of the bed and falling asleep!

Cao Cao was overjoyed in his heart, God really helped me!

got up and walked slowly in front of Ding Yuan, and picked up the seven-star treasure knife on the table with his right hand. Holding the handle of the knife with both hands and the blade facing down, he looked down at the big Sima Ding Yuan who was leaning on the head of the bed, and silently thought in his heart: Ding Yuan thief, your death is today!

The knife fell in hand, causing thunder to explode!
