Chapter 337: Untitled
"Naturally, it's going to be a little uncomfortable......"
Hundreds of people need to be beheaded, most of them are women, children, and the elderly, and the sound of sobbing cries is faintly coming here, and then they push forward, kneel, bow their heads, the blades fall, and the heads roll on the ground...... Gongsun Zhi closed his eyes slightly, and said calmly: "...... But it is not enough to be a woman's kindness, and what she does is responsible for the consequences. ”
Cao Cao flicked the sleeves of his robe heavily, and snorted coldly: "If I don't provoke these people to come out, when you and I fight with Yuan Shao, you and I will fight again, and I will jump out and stir up, and it is just right to kill them all in one breath at this time." ”
"Prime Minister, do you really think you can kill it all?"
"Killing harder can always warn another group of people, after all, there must always be people from the family involved in the court, but you can't completely let them hold too much power......"
At this time, the hundreds of people below had almost been killed, blood was flowing all over the ground, the original color of the street could not be seen, and the corpses were being counted and loaded by the soldiers, and the heads were piled up one by one, and dozens of baskets were loaded. Cao Cao mentioned the family, and his voice sank, "....... After all, the Central Plains is not as big as you in the north, there are as many large and small families as a cow, and there are some of these people in the court, and when they start doing things, they can be regarded as getting twice the result with half the effort...... Haha, first of all, let them have benefits, so they can't be of great use, otherwise, this Yan, Yu, and Xu won't be surnamed Cao. ”
"Even if they are killed and their families are destroyed, they will rush across the river." Gongsun Zhi raised his head and smiled, waved his hand indifferently, did not continue to talk about this matter, and turned to walk with Cao Cao on the head of the city.
Walking slowly, I talked about the next business.
"Now that the Xu Du affair has come to an end, the prime minister should be preparing to go south to Wancheng, but before that, I want to go to Shangdang County, if possible, sneak attack Jizhou, you also know the war over there, Yuan Shao let Gao Gan, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, and Zhang He besiege Taihang, just take advantage of his attention over there, I intend to directly attack Chaoge and Yecheng from Hanoi ......"
"I'm in a hurry, do you need help containing it?"
"It's not necessary, at this time, it's just to relieve the siege, if the prime minister's soldiers and horses are also involved, it means that the war will be expanded, or to train the soldiers and horses of Qingzhou, and run in Xuzhou to surrender troops."
"It seems that Yuan Benchu is going to suffer a loss in the matter of cavalry again, I hope he will be stronger than Yuan Shu."
The sky was bright, and there was a faint smell of blood floating here, and with the footsteps, the content of the conversation had been transferred to Shangdang County, and when it came to the funny place, Cao Cao's laughter sounded first, and then Gongsun Zhi also remembered.
Although the two of them said it easily, they both knew in their hearts that Yuan Shao, who was sitting in Sizhou, had begun to become strong in the past two years, and in a few years, he would really become a behemoth in the north, which made people dare not laugh at will. On the other hand, the Central Plains is in the land of four wars, although Lu Bu who is entrenched in Xuzhou has been destroyed, but there are also Zhang Xiu in Wancheng in Nanyang, Liu Biao in Jingzhou in the south, Yuan Shu in Shouchun, and even Sun Jian's son who is faintly emerging in Jiangdong, Sun Ce, and Xiliang do not seem to be peaceful.
"I can't say that, although I have restricted the inflow of grassland horses, there are still merchants who quietly sell them, as well as the Xianbei and Wuhuan people in Liaodong who sell them to him."
Cao Cao smiled and raised a finger: "Gongsun, one less to say." Jizhou strong crossbow! ”
"That's what the prime minister said."
Over there, the footsteps stopped, Gongsun Zhi's eyes were serious, swept over Cao Cao, who was alone with one hand beside him, and looked at the distant wilderness outside the city, "My father's white horse Yicong fell under the strong crossbow, Yuan Shao is not better than Lu Bu, Yuan Shu and the like, although he is not good at martial arts, but he has more martial arts than anyone else, and there are many capable people, Jizhou is vast and rich, and the people are densely populated, and the prime minister and I will deploy troops down, and then there are not many troops that can really fight with each other." ”
"Speaking of which, there are more than 100,000 people in my three states who can fight, and there are many places to defend, and there are indeed only a few tens of thousands of people who can be sent out when the time comes." Cao Cao's gaze sank, and when he said this, he glanced at Gongsun Zhi, who also turned his face and laughed, "Will be plotting, not brave." There are not many soldiers, but fine. You and I still have a chance to win. ”
After chatting for a while, Gongsun Zhi prepared to leave Xudu, returned to the military camp outside the city, and said something to Cao Cao, and finally turned around and went down the city wall, and went to the direction of the main camp in the west of the city with Dian Wei, Li Ke and other wolf cavalry guards waiting below.
In the sky, there was an explosion of dry thunder in the clear sky, Cao Cao's smile gradually retracted, his fist pressed against the wall, and looked at the execution ground in the city, the crowd had dispersed, and the corpses had been cleaned up and taken away.
In the south, which he didn't know, the hundred-mile fast horse was on its way to Xudu as fast as possible with an urgent disaster, and in the next few days, the news would be on the table. In addition, a large number of people who fled the disaster began to spread, sweeping through the surrounding counties like a tidal wave.
"Plague...... Displaced ......"
Cao Cao clenched the silk that carried the huge information, and closed his eyes through gritted teeth.
*************
At the end of June and the beginning of July, the heat has not yet come out of the dog days.
The Black Mountain Cavalry, the Wolf Cavalry, and the 2,000 Bingzhou Cavalry who had been stationed in Xudu for some time were already on their way to Hanoi, wearing the stars and the moon, and crossed the Yanzhou territory in the north on the flat official road, crossing the Yellow River,——.
Pedal Pedal –
The horse's hooves quickly swept through the rain splashed in the puddle, and more horses' hooves galloped behind them, shaking the earth, and Gongsun Zhi, who was the leader of the front, wrapped his cloak, stopped at the side of the road, looked at the outline of the city behind the rain curtain, turned his head and said loudly to the guards behind him: "Let the team behind speed up, except for Lu Bu to protect his family, the rest of the people immediately followed and made a feint posture against Hanoi." ”
The cavalry rushed to the rear. Since entering Hanoi, he has hardly had time to know about the situation in Yanzhou and Yuzhou, and after removing a few potential threats, there are not many others that can interest him. The rain is a bit heavy, it has been several days in a row, in this kind of weather, a large number of cavalry is not impossible, but it will be more or less affected, plus there are female dependents in the team, can only march in batches, on the one hand, in order to monitor Lu Bu and the surrendering army, and Gongsun Zhi walked in front first, there is also another reason.
"Li Ke, you take someone to the city first, see Wang Kuang, even if you are sleeping, you have to pull me off."
The sound of words echoed through the rain.
The young man named Li Ke received the order, holding the token of the governor of the northern land issued by the imperial court, and left the team with more than ten horses, galloped in the rain and ran towards the direction of the city wall. On the other side, Wang Kuanglian sneezed a few times, looked at the rain curtain hanging outside the window, pushed away the body of his concubine, rubbed his face, and sat on the edge of the bed.
"Today's eyelids are beating wildly, isn't disaster coming?"
The beautiful concubine put on a dress and poured him a bowl of warm water, "Isn't the husband too tired......
Wang Kuang took a sip of water, and after listening to her words, he shook his head, looking at the wind and rain swaying outside the window, and his heart became more and more unsteady, and then, there was a hurried footstep outside, and a servant knocked on the door: "Taishou, Gongsun Dudu sent someone to the house, saying that he wanted to see you." ”
Smack-
The porcelain bowl slipped from his hand and shattered. Wang Kuang dragged his somewhat bloated body up from the couch, pursed his lips, and felt a little remorseful: "Sure enough, when disaster comes, I know that this white wolf goes back and forth once, and it must be no good thing, I knew it was like this, and I regretted that I shouldn't have killed my strategist......"
"Since the husband doesn't like that person, just beat them out." The beautiful concubine comforted him, and her fingertips drew circles on her thick chest, "...... The husband is a hero, how can a governor who was born as a horse thief be compared with my family's Taishou. ”
"You're sweet-mouthed. But what I said is also reasonable, I think that when I Wang Kuang was begging Dong, I was also one of the princes, how could I go back more and more, come here! ”
Wang Kuang sat down with a majestic face, and when the subordinate bowed and walked in, his voice gradually weakened, "...... You go and entertain them, don't slack off......" Then, his voice rose again, "...... Wait for me to put on my armor and sword, and then talk to them. ”
"Yes."
The door closed, and he stood up and stretched out his arms: "Come, armor-"
