Chapter 39: The Princes Disperse

Cao Cao and others led their troops to Xingyang, and met Lu Bu in person, but heard Lu Bu say: "Sure enough, it is not as expected by Li Ru." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info "The two sides set up their horses and fought in one place.

But he didn't want to have soldiers and horses from both sides, Xue Rengui was the enemy of Lu Bu, Xiahou Yuan was the enemy of Li Dao, Xiahou Yuan was the enemy of Guo Yan, and Li Dian, Le Jin, Cao Hong and other generals led the army to meet the enemy.

Although Cao Cao's soldiers were many generals, but all the way to the march, people were sleepy and lacking horses, and they were killed by the enemy army of three ways through the formation, and finally Xue Rengui broke off and retreated to Hanoi.

At dawn, Zhang Zai suddenly received the news of Sun Jian's resignation and rushed to the Shuai tent, where Sun Jian was confronting Yuan Shao and others.

Zhang Zai saw the tension in the tent, and the corpse of a soldier on the ground, Zhang Zai was a little stunned.

Seeing Zhang Zai's arrival, Yuan Shao and others told Sun Jian about his private jade seal, they knew that Zhang Zai was friendly with Sun Jian, and they were afraid that he would help Sun Jian break the siege, so they wanted to block Zhang Zai with righteousness, after all, Zhang Zai had two fierce generals behind him who could rival Lu Bu.

When Sun Jian saw Zhang Zai, he was also a little ashamed, and said: "I originally wanted to say goodbye to Zide alone, but I didn't expect that Zide had been alarmed. ”

Zhang Zai shook his head, signaling that it didn't matter, and then looked at Yuan Shao and asked, "The alliance leader can conclude that Wentai has a jade seal in his private possession based on the words of this soldier?" Then tomorrow you can also instruct someone to come and report that someone has a jade seal. ”

"Well, what Zide said makes sense, but it's not appropriate to conclude like this." Gongsun Zan on the side heard that Zhang Zai supported Sun Jian and also supported Zhang Zai, he had a general relationship with Sun Jian, and there was no need to provoke Yuan Shao, but since Zhang Zai spoke for Sun Jian, he naturally wanted to help Zhang Zai.

Sun Jian listened to Zhang Zai's words, and his heart was moved, but more of it was a deep sense of guilt.

Yuan Shao couldn't refute Zhang Zai's words for a while, but at this moment, Cao Cao suddenly broke in, grabbed the wine on the table, drank the wine in the jug, and drank the wine in the jug.

He took a breath and said, "I have been righteous and eliminated thieves for the country." The princes came with righteousness, and the original intention of the exercise was to annoy the people of Hanoi at the beginning, and they were in Mengjin and sour dates; The generals stuck to Chenggao, according to Aocang, Sai Yuyuan, Taigu, and controlled its dangers; The highway rate Nanyang's army, stationed in Dan, analysis, into the military pass, to earthquake three auxiliaries. All deep ditches and high bases, do not fight, benefit from doubtful soldiers, and show the situation in the world. To be obedient and disobedient, you can also be determined. If you hesitate to move forward today, you will be disappointed in the hope of the world. Shame on you! ”

Yuan Shao was speechless when he said this, and then Cao Cao angrily left with Zhang Zai and Sun Jian, but Gongsun Zhan did not leave. His relationship with the other two is really average.

In the end, everyone in the tent was unhappy and dispersed, and Zhang Zai and the three of them who came out of the tent went to a small pavilion by the side of the road, and ordered someone to prepare some wine, and the three of them sat in front of the pavilion and drank freely.

After a few rounds of drinking, Cao Cao hugged his fist and saluted Zhang Zai: "Thank you Zide for saving your life." So he told me what had happened last night.

Zhang Zai suddenly returned the salute, and said with a chuckle: "Meng De is for the country and the people, and he should not be cut off from his fate, and besides, the fierce generals under the account are like clouds, and it is not enough to deal with Lu Bu." ”

Cao Cao shook his head: "Zide is too famous, if it wasn't for Xue Li last night, I'm afraid it would really be difficult to escape this catastrophe." ”

Zhang Zai didn't want to dwell too much on this, so he asked instead: "I'm afraid this alliance is about to break up, I don't know what the two of you have planned?" ”

Cao Cao sighed: "I thought that Yuan Shao would be favored by the emperor and should serve the country with all his might, but I didn't expect it, hey...... and get back home. ”

Sun Jian's eyes flickered a little when he looked at the two, but he just said, "Jian plans to go back to Jiangdong first, and then take care of it separately." ”

Zhang Zai looked at the two and said: "In this way, Zai should also go back to Yanmen and preside over the military affairs of the border area, but I don't know, we will say goodbye at this time, when will we meet again." ”

Cao Cao laughed and said: "Rong Ma career, the four seas are home, we will have a chance to meet." ”

The three of them chatted while drinking, and when the wine ran out, Cao Cao said goodbye to the two and said: "The wine is already fun, let's say goodbye, two, there will be a period later!" ”

"There will be a date later!"

The two watched Cao Cao leave, and Zhang Zai looked at Sun Jian and said, "Brother Wentai, do you remember to promise one thing?" ”

Sun Jian replied: "I remember." ”

Zhang Zai said: "I have something I want to ask, and I ask Brother Wentai to tell me truthfully." ”

Sun Jian hesitated, he knew what Zhang Zai wanted to ask, the stakes were high at this time, if Zhang Zai really wanted the jade seal, then ...... Just give it to him!

Ready to give it to Zhang Zaiyuxi, Sun Jian was frank in his heart, and Sun Jian, who had recovered his previous demeanor, said: "Please also ask Zide to speak clearly." ”

Zhang Zai looked at Sun Jian, not knowing what secrets he had, and asked, "Is this heirloom jade seal on you?" ”

Knowing that Zhang Zai would ask this question, Sun Jian replied dryly: "Yes." ”

Zhang Zai frowned and then asked, "But it was found in the well near the Jianzhang Palace?" ”

"Yes!"

Zhang Zai said suddenly: "Brother Wentai, this matter is a little strange, I won't tell you, Zai also looked for the jade seal there, and there was nothing unusual in the well at that time." ”

"What? This ......" Sun Jian was also stunned by what Zhang Zai said, the two of them arrived in Luoyang before and after, but two hours, since Zhang Zai was also looking for it, how could he not find the body.

"I don't know the soldier who found the light in the well, but he is still in the army?" Zhang Zai thought for a moment and asked.

"Jian has ordered him to return to Jiangdong's home first to report the news, and he is not in the army at this time." Sun Jian also thought of this person.

Zhang Zai felt that all this was like someone was planning in secret, but he didn't know who had such great ability, although he was faintly aware of it in his heart, but the matter was too involved, so he had to remind Sun Jian: "Brother Wentai, this matter is strange, you have a jade seal in your hand, and Yuan Shao learned that this trip back to Jiangdong, you must be careful, it is best to investigate and interrogate the soldier, and also, be careful of Liu Biao, and try to avoid fighting." "Don't mention the jade seal

Sun Jian was stunned, and then asked in surprise: "Zide is not going to ask for the jade seal?" ”

Zhang Zai asked, "What do I want this jade seal for?" ”

"This is the heirloom jade seal!" Sun Jian emphasized the four words "National Jade Seal" and emphasized.

"I know it's a jade seal, but I'm useless." Zhang Zai's face didn't matter.

Sun Jian was defeated by Zhang Zai's indifference, and then smiled bitterly: "If Jian had Zide's open-mindedness, maybe there wouldn't be so much to do." ”

Seeing that it was not early, the two of them did not say much, took care of each other, and each led his troops to leave.

On the way, Sun Jian told the four people what he said about the jade seal with Zhang Zai, and after listening to it, the four of them admired Zhang Zai's honesty and were a little worried.

Besides, Zhang Zai, knowing what happened, became more and more confused in his heart, so he simply led people directly to Jianzhang Palace, looked around the well, and finally, Xue Rengui went down the well and investigated on the walls around the well, and he really found a passage.

Walking along the passage, he didn't encounter any mechanism, Xue Rengui walked out of another exit, but he was in the Ganquan Palace.

Everyone entered the secret room and began a carpet search, only to find a secret room inside, in which were placed weapons and staffs, most of the weapons were swords, more than a dozen knives and guns made of iron, and hundreds of steel shields, these steel shields had hooks and locks at the corners, which could be connected to form a shield wall.

In addition, there are hundreds of iron armors, hundreds of horse armors, which are the kind of protective gear made for war horses, as well as some finely crafted bronze saddles and stirrups, and other scattered swords and spears, enough to equip more than a thousand people.

The people in the secret room were stunned by the equipment inside, and the cost of building this equipment was enough to equip a team of 10,000 foot soldiers.

Of course, these good things have to be swallowed alone, but without saying anything, Zhang Zai blocked the news and ordered the guards to empty this place.
