"Wen Ze, the Qinglong and Beidou Second Battalion are handed over to you for the time being," Guan Yudao, who was dressed in a parrot green robe. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

"Oh," replied on horseback, holding the reins.

Subsequently, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu followed the three guards and slowly drove towards the city gate.

At the city gate, Guo Dian's urn admonished, "Take care of the city gate, and go to report to the Zhonglang general." ”

"Whoa." The military marquis clenched his fists and bowed.

As soon as he entered the city gate, as far as Guan Yu's eyes could see, Danfeng's eyes showed surprise, and he couldn't help but admire, "Lord Zhonglang is really a famous general, and his soldiers are strong. ”

Yongqiu County, the county government, Zhonglang will Huangfu Song in the county office, looking for the best target of the army's next step. At this moment, a sound of footsteps came, and Guo Dian, who was wearing chain mail and had a swarthy face, entered the county government and hugged his fists, "My lord." ”

"What's the matter," Huangfu Song said without raising his head, his eyes fixed on the map on the low couch.

"There is a partial division from Qingzhou, and it is ordered by the new Youzhou assassin Liu Yan Liu to rescue Qingzhou."

"Rescue Qingzhou?" Huangfu Song raised his head, his blazing eyes showed a little essence, his thin and resolute face, with a majesty, and a touch of vicissitudes between his eyebrows, which made people see that the person in front of him was calm and grim.

"But Guan Yu and Zhang Fei?" Huangfu Song hurriedly put down the map in his hand and asked.

"It's these two." After a pause, Guo Dian said, "My lord, the last general has arranged for the two of them to enter the city and stay in an inn for the time being. ”

"Well," a look of appreciation flashed in Huangfu Song's eyes, "Ji Yuan, now let these two come to see the general." ”

"Oh," Guo Dian clenched his fists, slowly pushed out of the county office, and then went to find Zhang Fei and the others.

In half an hour, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu came to the side hall of the county government under the leadership of Guo Dian. At this time, Zhonglang will Huangfu Song is sitting on the top, when the two stepped in, a cold, cold breath hit, so that the two of them felt uncomfortable for a while, a little pause, the two of them walked forward, not hindered by the cold breath at all, which can't help but make Huangfu Song opposite like a heavy jujube, the strange Guan Yu and eight feet tall, face like a crown of jade, Zhang Fei with a heroic posture admired, "It's really worthy of being a tiger in the world!" ”

"I've seen Zuo Zhonglang", Zhang Fei and Guan Yu took off Tang Ni's armor, one wearing parrot green, and the other wearing black sand hub (gu) cicada clothes came to meet each other.

"Sit," dressed in a red sand hub cicada suit, Huangfu Song's rough arms were tied with arrow sleeve leather, leading to the seats on the left and right.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were not polite, kneeling on their seats, while Guo Dian returned to the city gate to busy his work.

"Yide, Yunchang, that's right!" Huangfu Song distinguishes between the two people.

"Exactly, Lord Zhonglang," Zhang Fei replied with his fists clenched.

"Yide, Ben will ask you, Qingzhou Yellow Turban, has it been contained in the realm of Qingzhou now?" Huangfu Song got straight to the point.

"Hmm," Zhang Fei nodded, a pair of sword eyebrows frowned slightly, unable to figure out Huangfu Song's intentions. With a flick of his fingers, Zhang Fei said, "In the Battle of Pingling, Xu He, the commander of the Yellow Turban in Qingzhou, died in the chaos, and hundreds of thousands of troops lost tens of thousands. ”

After a pause, Zhang Fei glanced at Huangfu Song, saw that his expression did not fluctuate in the slightest, and continued, "Later, due to the death of Xu He, the commander of Qingzhou, the Yellow Turban Army formed by bandits and bandits, lost its restraint and internal strife, resulting in a large-scale bloody battle in Qingzhou Yellow Turban. Then, the Yellow Turban thieves who failed to fight for power fled in all directions, and now they are all over the counties of Qingzhou.

Huangfu shook his head and twisted a wisp of black beard under his chin, "Qingzhou still has most of the yellow scarves and occupies the strong city?" ”

"Yes," Zhang Fei said, "Qin Ming and Zhao Fang, the commanders of the Yellow Turban Canal, have tens of thousands of troops, and they are defending Linzi according to the fortified city. ”

"Linzi is occupied by the yellow scarf," Huangfu Song obviously didn't expect this kind of thing, and suddenly got up, his face full of shock.

Seeing that the faces of the two of them did not seem to be fake, Huangfu Song had a headache, rubbed it lightly with his hand, and sat back on the cushion behind the low couch, "Write out a copy of the battle of Qingzhou in great detail, and hand it over to the general later, you go out first." ”

"Oh," the two of them replied, and then walked out of the side hall, leaving Huang Fu Song alone in the side hall with a contemplative face.

When he was about to leave the county yamen, when he was a little away from the soldiers guarding the county yamen, Zhang Fei couldn't help but be overjoyed, and he squeezed his eyebrows at Guan Yu for a while, "Big brother, you said that General Zhonglang asked you and me to write down the battle of Qingzhou in great detail, whether it is for you and me to be promoted!" ”

"I don't know," but Guan Yu's red face was full of doubts.

Late that night, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu wrote several bamboo slips, and then sent them to the county government to present them to Huangfu Song. That night, Huangfu Song called Cao Cao, the cavalry commander who was in charge of the Yulin Cavalry and also had a rank of 2,000 stones, and the two of them jointly inspected the exploits of Zhang Fei and Guan Yu.

"Mengde, how's that?" Huangfu Song put down the bamboo slip in his hand and said.

"Oh," Cao Cao hurriedly withdrew his gaze from the bamboo slip, and did not rush to answer, but squinted his small eyes in contemplation.

After a moment's effort, Cao Cao, who had a dark face, put down the bamboo slip and said solemnly, "Lord Zhonglang, if what is said above is true, you should be rewarded." Moreover, the reward should be heavier, so as to show that His Majesty is gracious, and the rewards and punishments for meritorious soldiers are clear. ”

"Hmm," Huangfu Song looked at with a relieved chin and a rare smile on his resolute face. "Then you and I will jointly petition Your Majesty, cross the post of military commander, and ask Your Majesty to give him the post of captain."

"Everything is only for adults," Cao Cao said.

"Cao Apu, you are a slippery head," Huangfu Song scolded with a smile, "Are you still afraid that Your Majesty will not be able to demote you?" ”

Cao Cao sneered, "Don't dare." However, Cao Cao knew that even though he was a lieutenant, he was on the same level as Huangfu Song's lieutenant general, and he was in charge of the palace forbidden army Yulin Army, but he did not dare to show a trace of pride, complacency, and contempt in front of a generation of famous generals Huangfu Song. Otherwise, Huangfu Song will not promote himself like a junior, and will rely on the power in his hands to suppress himself.

"Okay, don't I know your Cao Apu's careful thoughts? Go back," Huangfu Song waved his hand.

"Huh," Cao Cao slowly withdrew from the tent.

The next day, before leaving, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu got up early, each holding a weapon to fight with each other, and for a while, the backyard clanged, and the black mang and Qingguang flew up and down, stirring up the yard to fly sand and stones.

After a while, Guan Yu stood with a knife, tall as a pine, stroking the three-foot long hair with one hand, and squinting Danfeng's eyes, "Second brother, it's not far from breaking through!" ”

"Big brother has good eyesight," Zhang Fei carried the Zhangba snake spear upside down, and his handsome cheeks gradually showed a majestic color.

At this time, near the end of the day, in the courtyard where Ziguan and Zhang temporarily lived, a small colonel wearing leather armor and a hood rushed out and said to the two, "Lord Zhang, Lord Guan, Lord Cao Cao, the commander of the cavalry, please invite the two of you to come over the mansion to invite."

"Cao Cao?" Zhang Fei glanced at Guan Yu strangely, and couldn't help muttering in his heart, "What can this Cao Heizi do with my two brothers?" ”

"Did Lord Captain Ride say anything?" Guan Yu asked.

"Two adults," Xiao Xiao bowed, "Cao Duwei didn't say anything to Xiao, just let the two adults pass through the house as soon as possible." ”

"Lead the way!" Since Cao Cao didn't say it, Zhang Fei didn't want to ask too much, so the two simply washed their faces from the copper basin on one side and went out of the house.

All the way forward, when waiting for a three-in, three-out compound near the county government, Zhang Fei heard the little colonel who led the way say that this was originally the house of the scholars in Yongqiu County, because the Yanzhou Yellow Turban was elite and menacing, and there were people who should cooperate with each other. In less than a day, Yongqiu County suddenly fell into the hands of the Yellow Turban, and the scholar clan had no time to pack up and flee for their lives, and was targeted and arrested by the Yellow Turban rebels in the city overnight. Then the family, young and old, the women were for the Yellow Turban Qu Shuai and the others to vent, and all the men were killed and hung on the head of Yongqiu County, in order to warn the family of Naye.

Coming to the gate of the mansion, Zhang Fei could vaguely see from the vermilion gate the nobility of the mansion before the Yellow Turban Rebellion raged.

"Your Excellency, please." The small colonel led at the door, and then the soldiers in the mansion took Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to see Cao Cao.

In the main hall, Cao Cao, who was dressed in a red sand hub arrow sleeve Zen robe, was pouring himself a drink. The guards strode into the main hall and hugged their fists, "My lord, someone brought it." ”

Cao Cao's eyes were pulled, he put down the wine bottle in his hand on the low couch, and wiped the wine stains on the corners of his mouth with his sleeve, "Let them come in!" ”

"Ah," the guard replied.

A nine-foot-tall man with a burly body and a look of non-anger and self-authority on his face stepped into the side hall, which made Cao Cao's thin eyes light up.

The other person has long ears and thick lips, kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and his face is extremely white, and he is a rare beautiful man, which makes Cao Cao, who is seven feet tall and has a dark face, can't help but feel jealous.

"Looking at its spirit, it is the general of the tiger and wolf in the world; If you can't get acquainted, it's really one of the great regrets in life. ”

After a simple greeting, Cao Cao asked people to send some beef and two pots of Du Kang wine.

When the wine was half-drunk, Cao Cao poured a full bottle of wine, and said to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei with both hands, "Yun Chang, Yide, this cup, I respect you, and you actually forced back tens of thousands of Yellow Turban troops with thousands of troops." ”

"Lord Cao, it's a fluke, it's just a fluke," Zhang Fei hurriedly replied with a wine bottle.

"Hahaha," Cao Cao said with a hearty smile, "How can there be so many luck in marching and fighting, victory is victory, defeat is defeat." Cao Cao tilted his head, and the wine in the bottle poured into Cao Cao's throat.

Before he could, the wine in the bottle was exhausted, and he saw Cao Cao staring at him with a heroic face, "The smoke of the Han Dynasty is rising, and heroes are born in troubled times." There was Cao Mengde first, and then Zhang Zhu. Be indignant and think about it unforgettable. ”

"It's a pity, it's a pity!" Cao Cao sighed greatly, so that Zhang Fei was in a fog for a while, and he couldn't tell Cao Cao's intentions at all.

Without waiting for Zhang Fei to speak, Cao Cao shook his head in a daze as if he was drunk, "Hehe, I lost my words, I lost my words." ”

"Come, drink," Cao Cao gestured from afar.

After that, for several days, Cao Cao invited Zhang Fei and Guan Yu to have a banquet every day, talking about the anecdotes of the four seas, and frequently showed goodwill, faintly having the intention of making friends with the two.

This thought was noticed by Zhang Fei and sneered. Since he has decided to raise the three-foot Qingfeng and fight for great achievements in the troubled times, Cao Cao will be his biggest enemy in the future, how can he make friends with Cao Cao casually. Otherwise, as soon as the troubled times start, Zhang Fei is afraid that he will not be able to be ruthless to Cao Cao.
