Li Dao and Guo Yan became the great generals and great Sima of the Han Dynasty. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info However, the national notice issued by the Han court did not enter the state to the north, did not send a letter to the east, and did not pass the Meridian Valley to the south.

The soldiers under the command of Li Dao and Guo Yan were only soldiers staying in the three counties west of Liangzhou and Hangu Pass.

And Cao De, who returned to Hanzhong with the army, has been marching for more than ten days, and the army is not far from Dengcheng.

On this day, the sentinels sent out by Cao De could already see the walls of Duncheng. However, they suddenly noticed that a troop of cavalry was rapidly approaching them from the southwest.

They quickly found a small forest to hide, and when the other party got closer, they found that the other party was actually flying their flag, and one of the knights was carrying an eight-hundred-mile urgent order flag on his back!

So, they showed their bodies and led this group of cavalry to Cao De's face.

Cao De opened the letterbox sealed with fire paint, and after ten breaths, "Someone, please come to the military division!" ”

"No!"

When Xu Shu came to Cao De, he saw a face with a frown, and Xu Shu called out softly: "Lord? ”

"Yuan Zhi, you lead the army to hurry, I have something to do, I have to rush back to Hanzhong first!" Cao De whispered to Xu Shu.

"Lord, dare to ask what happened?" Xu Shu asked tentatively.

"Ma Teng is dead!" Cao De replied without a pause!

"Ma Teng is dead?" Xu Shu muttered, and then, Xu Shu saw a piece of paper handed over by Cao De.

This kind of paper is only available in Hanzhong, so Xu Shu must have come from home.

However, after Cao De handed the letter to Xu Shu, he immediately said: "Zilong, Fengxian, and Peping have ordered a thousand cavalry, and we will speed up our return to Hanzhong!" ”

"No!"

Cao De took Zhao Yun, Lu Bu, Gao Shun and a thousand cavalry away.

Three days later, Cao De came to the east gate of Nanzheng City with a tired face. At this time, Jia Xu, Ma Wan and Pang De were already waiting outside the city.

"Greetings, Lord!" Everyone bent down and saluted Cao De.

There were not many people who came to greet Cao De, except for Jia Xu and the three, there were only two hundred sergeants. Cao De had previously ordered that if you want to come and welcome me back, you can. But if you leave your official business at hand to meet me, then after standing outside the city for three days and two nights, go home and farm. I don't need someone who is just a slapper, a sycophant.

Under Cao De's strict orders, every time Cao De went to a place, the battle that came to greet him could be said to be smaller than a guest from an ordinary family.

Cao De handed the reins of the wind to Pei Yuanshao, and then came to Jia Xu's side, "What are things doing at home?" ”

"All well!" Jia Xu hurriedly replied.

At the same time as Jia Xu answered, Cao De also said hello to Ma To, and then gestured for everyone to enter the city.

"Well, what else is there news in the direction of Chang'an." Cao De asked as he walked into the city.

"Li Dao and Guo Yan betrayed Dong Zhuo and beheaded Li Ru in front of Weiyang Palace. Then he was recruited by Situ Wang Yun, one became a big Sima, and the other became a general! Jia Xu said with a sneer on his face.

Cao De was stunned for a moment, and continued to take steps, "General, Great Sima!" Hehe, are they worthy! ”

At this time, Cao De had already passed through the city gate and came to the city, and the people in the city did not have any special reaction when they saw the returning Cao De, but they just nodded to Cao De one after another, "General!" And Cao De didn't forget to say hello to the people passing by while talking to Jia Xu.

"But," Jia Xu said two words, hesitating.

At this time, the two happened to come to the vicinity of a roadside wine stall. Cao De walked straight over, "The general is back, is it the same?" ”

Cao De nodded, turned back and continued to ask Jia Xu, "But what." ”

"However, from the holy decree that came out of Chang'an, it is said that they have merit in breaking thieves......"

"Thief? What is a thief? Cao De's soft tone interrupted Jia Xu's words, and at this time, the wine that Cao De asked for also came. General, your wine! ”

Cao De reached out and took the flask and a bag of peeled nuts handed over by the stall owner. "Oh, I have two guests, bring me three more jugs of wine!"

"Okay!" The boss said happily.

When the boss turned around to get the wine, Cao De turned his head and said to Jia Xu again: "They must say that Brother Shoucheng is a thief." Ridiculous, ridiculous, what a thief is, I'm afraid they know better than us! ”

After Cao De finished speaking, he lifted the flask and took a sip, then pinched a nut and threw it into his mouth. The movement of the mouth seems to be on Cao De, who has become a little restrained due to the hurry in the past few days, and his face is much soothed.

Soon, the stall owner returned, "General, your wine!" ”

Cao De stretched out his hand to take a pot, and then shouted to the back: "Fengxian, Peping, come and taste the good folk wine in my Hanzhong!" ”

When Lu Bu and Gao Shun heard this, they walked over, and one of them picked up a pot of wine, "Thank you, lord!" ”

Cao De nodded and continued to take the lead and walked forward.

And one of the guards who followed Jia Xu's voice hurriedly walked to the stall to pay the bill after Cao De left. "Forget it, the general entertains guests with the villain's wine, and it's too late for the villain to be happy."

"No, it's not that you don't know the general's temper, let the general know, I'll be punished."

……

Cao De led the team to continue walking, and suddenly Cao De turned to the horse and asked, "Does Chao'er know?" ”

Ma Yu lowered his head, "Got it!" ”

This is Jia Xu hurriedly said: "When General Ma arrived in Nanzheng, he immediately informed him of this matter. It was a good advocacy to bring Ma Chao over. ”

Cao De didn't blame Jia Xu for playing with the horse, but said lightly: "Chao'er is older, you can't hide it from him, it's time to let him make his own decisions." By the way, is it only Chao'er who is here? ”

Jia Xu nodded.

Cao De sighed and said to Jia Xu: "Okay, let's disperse." Ma play, Pang De, and Zilong came with me. Wenhe, let's talk about it again tomorrow! ”

"No!"

Cao De soon returned to the general's mansion in Nanzheng City with the three of them and a group of personal guards. And the gentle and fierce Gu Liya was already waiting at the gate of the mansion.

Cao De gently hugged Gu Liya, whispered a few words, and asked, "What about Chao'er?" ”

"I'm alone by the pond in the backyard."

"Well, you go and prepare a bucket of bath water for me, and I'll look for you later!"

Cao De took Zhao Yun, Ma Wan and Pang De to the pond in the mansion, and Ma Chao was sitting alone by the pond and looking at the pond blankly.

"Chao'er?"

Ma Chao didn't notice the person behind him, and after Cao De spoke, Ma Chao turned back violently.

"Uncle? Uncle! ”

Cao De looked at Ma Chao, who wanted to cry but held back his tears, and gently walked to Ma Chao's side, pulling Ma Chao to continue to sit by the pond.

Yes, Ma Chao is a child who has just turned fifteen, and fifteen years old is the time when he has spent his youth and ignorance and is extremely dependent on his relatives. However, at this time, Ma Chao lost his father.

"Chao'er, have you ever drunk?"

Ma Chao was stunned for a moment and nodded. Cao De handed the wine in his hand to Ma Chao. Ma Chao took it, raised the flask and took a big sip.

"Chao'er, people will eventually die. Maybe a person's death is meaningless, maybe a person's death can wake up a lot of people, maybe a person's death will hit a lot of people. Cao De took a sip of the wine in his hand and continued: "Chao'er, my brother's revenge will undoubtedly be avenged, whether it will be you or me." ”

"The revenge of killing my father is not shared! Ma Chao swears here that he will take revenge! Ma Chao said firmly and loudly.

"Okay, in that case, I'll give you this chance!"

For Ma Chao, Cao De didn't think about comforting, he didn't think about a full solution. Because Cao De saw Ma Chao's stubborn and strong tears!

When a person works hardest, that is, when he has a goal in mind, and he must do his best to do it seriously to complete, that is when he works hardest.

And Cao De only needs to let Ma Chao know what he should do now, that is, revenge with his own hands! (To be continued.) )
