Chapter 257: The Final Meeting
The day after Ma Teng's assassination, near Yiyang, east of Chang'an. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Xu Shu, Zhao Yun and Lu Bu, who had just joined, set off again with nearly 70,000 troops and 20,000 prisoners. Their target is Luoyang, which has been reduced to ruins.
When Zhang Liao and Wei Yan appeared to rescue Jin'er and persuaded LΓΌ Bu to surrender, Xu Shu also learned from Zhang Liao and Wei Yan that Cao De's destination was in Luoyang. Then, Xu Shu sent a sentry to the direction of Luoyang, on the one hand, to find Cao De and get in touch with Cao De, and on the other hand, to report to Cao De the battle report here.
Interestingly, Xu Shu mentioned in his battle report to Cao De that he would give Cao De a surprise, but what was the specific surprise Xu Shu sold out. Anyway, it's not about Lu Bu.
When Cao De received the sentry sent by Xu Shu, Cao De had already been in Luoyang for a day. Before, Cao De was still thinking about whether to go west and pursue the Dong Jun and Luoyang convoy heading west, just at this time, Xu Shu's sentry cavalry and battle report came.
Cao De did not immediately open the battle report, but directly asked the sentry cavalry about Xu Shu's location, and then Cao De took 20,000 people directly down Luoshui to the west.
When Cao De left, he set off from the south of Luoyang, in fact, as early as half a day ago, there was also a group of people who also entered Luoyang, that is, Sun Jian, who had been behind Cao De, and more than 6,000 people under his command.
In fact, Cao De knew about Sun Jian's arrival. And even if there was no Cao De's sentry near Luoyang, Cao De could also guess that Sun Jian would come. Because this is the general trend of history.
During the day Cao De stayed in Luoyang, he just asked the soldiers to take a general tour of Luoyang, and Cao De's main purpose was to see if there were any people alive in Luoyang City. As a result, a busy day, no!
Regarding the jade seal passed down from Cao De in his previous life, Cao De directly did not have any illusions, if the soldier happened to meet it, then take it back as a souvenir; If you don't meet it, then God still wants to make this jade seal a mystery for the ages.
However, not an hour before Cao De left Luoyang, the sentinels who stayed near Luoyang all returned, and they also brought back a piece of news that Sun Jian was gone.
When I came, I was in a hurry, and when I left, I was in a hurry.
After Cao De heard the report of the sentry cavalry, he was basically sure that the jade seal was still taken away by Sun Jian.
Take it away, take it away. For Cao De, the jade seal is just a jade in the final analysis. As long as you have soldiers and territory in your hands, even if you have a piece of mud in your hand, others will tremble with fear; There are no soldiers, no territory, nothing, even if there are twenty jade seals, what is the use.
Sun Jian came from the Tiger Prison, and he would definitely not return the same way when he left. You must know that in the past few days, Yuan Shao and other Eleventh Route coalition troops are still busy eating celebration banquets in Xingyang. What if you accidentally show some horses and let them divide up themselves. Therefore, after Sun Jian left the city from the east gate of Luoyang, he turned his horse and went south. It seems that Sun Jian is either going to Yuyuan Pass or Taigu Pass.
Of course, there will be Cao Cao who will follow Cao De on the road, and the current Cao Cao has not yet made a plan for the future, the world is so big, where to go.
The most important thing in life is not money, not background, not life, but choice!
As the saying goes, I am born to be useful, and a person can only become a winner in life if he finds the right way.
And Cao De obviously saw Cao Cao's confusion, so Cao De dragged Cao Cao and went all the way west.
followed Cao De and Zheng Tai, Zheng Tai was hung on the city gate by a spear of Lu Bu that day, and a hole was pierced in his abdomen, but Lord Yama couldn't bear to take away the soul of Zheng Tai, who was loyal and righteous, so Zheng Tai survived.
It's just that Zheng Tai is still very weak now, and he needs to act with the army in a carriage. Moreover, when Zheng Tai heard that his friend Zhu Jun was still alive and was in Yizhou, Zheng Tai also said that he wanted to go to Yizhou to meet Zhu Jun.
There are also three very important characters on the road with Cao De, that is, the three brothers Liu Bei.
At the beginning of the Suzaku Gate in Luoyang South Palace, Cao De's words can be said to have both warned Liu Bei and reminded Liu Bei.
So, Liu Bei also followed Cao De on the road. Because Liu Bei had a feeling that Cao De's battle against Dong Zhuo had just begun. Although, Cao De said on the bamboo slip he gave himself that Dong Zhuo's whereabouts were unknown, Dong Zhuo's residual forces were still very large. Whoever receives it will become the top person among the princes in the world.
Cao De and Xu Shu are both moving along Luoshui, and they are still walking in the opposite direction. So, the two men and horses met after only one day of travel.
When the sentinels of the two sides met, Cao De's sentinels conveyed an order from Cao De to Xu Shu's sentinels. Cao De asked Xu Shu to set up a temporary camp in the same place.
By the time Cao De arrived, Xu Shu's temporary camp was almost half completed, and outside the camp, Xu Shu, Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Wei Yan, Ma Zhong, Zhang Ren, Sha Moke, Lu Bu, and Gao Shun had already been waiting for a long time.
"Greetings, Lord!" Everyone bowed and saluted in unison.
"Everyone, please get up!" Cao De turned over and dismounted, pulled them up one by one, holding everyone's hands, and said as he walked: "If I Cao De didn't have your help, how could I achieve such an achievement!" β
When Cao De finished speaking, he happened to walk in front of Lu Bu. Cao De held Lu Bu's hands without any hesitation, "Fengxian, but I finally looked forward to you!" Ha ha...... Knowing that you are lost, you are very good! Fortunate, fortunate! β
"Thank you for not killing!" Lu Bu said with his head half-bowed.
Cao De patted Lu Bu's shoulder, "Let's talk about it later!" β
After Cao De had Lu Bu, he came to a person who was half a step behind Lu Bu, "Presumably you are Gao Shun Gao Boping!" β
"Sin will come to the Lord!" Gao Shun didn't expect Cao De to know about it, so he hurriedly saluted again.
"Pepin doesn't need to be polite, I already know that Pepin is a person who is loyal and righteous, rare, rare!"
"Lord Miaozan, Shun can't afford it!" Gao Shun said modestly.
"Don't be presumptuous." Cao De also patted Gao Shun's shoulder and returned to Xu Shu's body.
"Let's go, Yuan Zhi! Let's go to the camp and talk again! With that, Cao De took Xu Shu's hand and walked into the unfinished camp behind him.
The rest of the facilities in the camp had not yet been completed, and the Chinese army tent was the first to be built, so the huge Chinese army tent was quickly filled by everyone.
And Zhang Fei and Zheng Tai, who had just walked into the big tent, obviously didn't expect Lu Bu to be here, so they were immediately stunned, but because Cao De was here, the two of them still couldn't help but not have a seizure!
Soon, everyone came, and Cao De sat on the throne without concessions. Of course, Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Zheng Tai are sitting under Cao De.
Cao De looked at the civil and military in the tent and smiled happily. Cao De, who loves lewdness, suddenly thought, if such a lineup gives me another set, how perfect it would be! It's a pity, it's just a fantasy! (To be continued.) )
