……

Gifts were placed all over the city, and although the chaos was initially decided, there were still a lot of cattle, sheep, and wine and food in the city. Cao Guo's merchants and doctors, who went out of the city to greet Zhao Jun, were also full of smiles, but the city gate was closed, and Yang Hu could see at a glance that the people who controlled the city planned to give themselves a closed door.

Under the city, a pair of eyes looked at each other for a long time, and Yang Hu said with a smile: "What, Zigong doesn't plan to let us enter the city?" ”

The mask on Yang Hu's face was hideous, and his tone was gloomy, but Zigong was not afraid of him, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "The chaos in the city has been decided, the people's hearts are unstable, and the rash entry may make the Cao people frightened, and I also ask Mr. to send five hundred people to follow me into the city, and the rest are stationed outside to clear the resistance in the surrounding acropolis." ”

Yang Hu frowned: "The order I got is to deal with the change in Cao Guo, this is the general's order, what reason do you have to prevent me from entering the city." ”

"I am a pedestrian appointed by the military system to be in charge of foreign affairs, and I am on the same level as Mr. What's more, the change of Cao Guo is also under my authority, and now Cao Chao has been pacified by me, the first evil prince Sun Jiang died, and Cao Boyang was also arrested by Mr. At this time, we should quickly clear the surrounding resistance and guide the Song army to the north, what should we do when we enter the city and delay? Most of the soldiers under Mr. are newly attached, and after entering the city, they were dazzled by the prosperous scenery of Taoqiu, how is it good to have a low fighting spirit, if there is a conflict with the Cao people, so that the Cao country will be chaotic again, Mr. not only has no success, but has been. ”

Yang Hu narrowed his eyes and stared at Zigong like a fox who dared to disobey him, Tao Ang and the others were worried about Zigong, who expected that in the end, he was relieved and said with a smile:

"In that case, then Taoqiu will be handed over to Zigong." He took another step forward and whispered in Zigong's ear: "But Zigong also has to remember that you are a pedestrian of the Zhao family, not a pedestrian of the Cao Kingdom!" ”

"Yangzi's words, give them to remember." Zigong looked back and saw a hint of surprise in Yang Hu's eyes.

After Yang Hu led his soldiers to camp outside the city, after Zigong and Tao Ang returned to Taoqiu, Ji Ran, who had been watching the city and did not go out, asked: "The identity of the general outside the city is mysterious, and he still wears a mask to hide people's eyes, does Zigong know his true face?" “

Zigong said lightly: "I know, Yang Hu, who once held the country's destiny as the foil of the Ji family, is the enemy of the master." For Zigong, who has seen Yang Hu many times, it is not difficult to guess that even if he is disfigured and changes his voice, his body shape and momentum will not change.

Ji Ran was stunned: "It turns out that this person is not dead, who expected that he took refuge in the Zhao family." He smiled heavily: "Yang goods, thieves, and marquis, most of the traitors of the Lu State were actually taken under the command of General Zhao, I am really curious about what means he used to make these unruly people obey." ”

"The general controls the subordinates, and treats people with sincerity, talents naturally flock to them, these three people have done evil things, but they also have their ability. Although Confucius had a festival with Yang Hu and thieves, the so-called virtuous do not avoid relatives and enemies, and the lord has a place to get them, and it is not good to say much as a minister. But I still can't believe his generation, especially Yang Hu, I heard that he came to Taoqiu on the way to plunder the four wilderness, so that there is no wilderness, he is a tiger, and his soldiers have also been taken into wolves, if this person is let into the city, Taoqiu is afraid that half of it will be destroyed. “

Ji Ran bowed his head: "You did the right thing, Yang Hu's vision is too short-sighted, and he can seize it by ruthless means, but he can't keep what he has in hand." The significance of Taoqiu is not only a granary and money bank that can be squeezed at will during the war, but also the key to the revival of the Central Plains and the revival of merchants after the war......"

Zigong sighed: "I only hope that the lord can understand this, I am just worried, the lord only looks at his ability, not his character and virtue, and in the long run, it will inevitably lead to a group of thieves, and there must be a gentleman like Mr. around him to suppress them......"

"I don't dare to be called a gentleman, I am also a utilitarian villain who can only count money, grain, cloth, and silk." Ji Ran laughed, but his heart was like a mirror. It seems that Zhao Wuxian's subordinates are not monolithic, at least they can separate Zigong, a group of disciples of Confucius of the Lu Kingdom, and the ministers composed of Zhao Ying's diners, plus Yang Hu and other eagles and dogs.

As for Ji Ran himself, he persuaded Ye Gong to embarrass Zheng Guo, and then it was the merit of Dingcao, Zigong had great merit, and he was not bad.

Zigong seemed to be the leader of the Cao rebellion, and all forces only obeyed him, so he had to stay in Taoqiu and wait for Zhao Wuxian's disposal of Cao. Ji Ran also decided to wait for him, after all, Zigong is a first-class good at fooling people and doing business, but he has no experience in governing the capital, and if Ji Ran helps him stabilize Taoqiu, it will be a credit.

Therefore, on the contrary, the unlucky Cao Boyang was escorted to the camp of the Zhao army in Diqiu first......

……

"Okay, okay, why don't you stop here." Zhao Wuxian patted Cao Boyang, who was hugging his thigh and crying bitterly, and shook his head helplessly at everyone in the tent.

"Zitai have to believe me, I was really mistaken by the traitor Gongsun Jiang...... I ......" Cao Yang snorted and cried, and now it fell into Zhao Wuxian's hands, whether he lived or died depends on his words. Therefore, under the desire to survive, Cao Bo played the friendship card, after all, he and Zhao Wuxian had a very close personal relationship, and it was not until the past two years that he gradually drifted away from Germany.

He still has a trace of extravagant hope, if Zhao Wuxian can believe him, maybe he can also be attributed to Cao as the king!

"I know that Zigong has sent someone to report the cause and effect of the change of Cao Guo in detail." Zhao Wuxian smiled meaningfully, helped Cao Boyang up, looked at his eyes that drooped due to weakness and said: "The first evil prince Sun Jiang has been killed by Cao Ren, Cao Jun was misled by him, of course I know that you are innocent, but ......"

"It's just that Cao Ren has a deep gap with Jun, if you rush to send Jun back, I'm afraid there will be danger, don't forget that Cao Shenggong and Cao Yingong both died at the hands of the countrymen......"

Cao Boyang suddenly recalled those angry Chinese people, countless pairs of hands stretched out to his carriage, and his legs trembled. In comparison, it was safer for this Zhao army camp, and he suddenly shook his head like a rattle: "I won't go back to Taoqiu." "In that case, please also ask Cao Jun to stay in the camp for a few days, and I will have someone build a mansion for you in Chaoge, and go there to avoid the limelight, and wait for Cao Ren's anger to subside before planning to return to the country."

As for Ji Ran himself, he persuaded Ye Gong to embarrass Zheng Guo, and then it was the merit of Dingcao, Zigong had great merit, and he was not bad. Ji Ran traveled all over the world, observed the monarchs of various countries, and finally selected the Zhao family, he went north this time, not to be a leisurely staff, but to become a great cause!

Zigong seemed to be the leader of the Cao rebellion, and all forces only obeyed him, so he had to stay in Taoqiu and wait for Zhao Wuxian's disposal of Cao. Ji Ran also decided to wait for him, after all, Zigong is a first-class good at fooling people and doing business, but he has no experience in governing the capital, and if Ji Ran helps him stabilize Taoqiu, it will be a meritorious achievement.

Therefore, on the contrary, the unlucky Cao Boyang was escorted to the camp of the Zhao army in Diqiu first......

……

"Okay, okay, why don't you stop here." Zhao Wuxian patted Cao Boyang, who was hugging his thigh and crying bitterly, and shook his head helplessly at everyone in the tent.

"Zitai have to believe me, I was really mistaken by the traitor Gongsun Jiang...... I ......" Cao Yang snorted and cried, and now it fell into Zhao Wuxian's hands, whether he lived or died depends on his words. Therefore, under the desire to survive, Cao Bo played the friendship card, after all, he and Zhao Wuxian had a very close personal relationship, and it was not until the past two years that he gradually drifted away from Germany.

Cao Boyang suddenly recalled those angry Chinese people, countless pairs of hands stretched out to his carriage, and his legs trembled. In comparison, it was safer for this Zhao army camp, and he suddenly shook his head like a rattle: "I won't go back to Taoqiu." ”

"In this case, please also ask Cao Jun to stay in the camp for a few days, I will have someone build a mansion for you in Chaoge, and go there to avoid the limelight, and wait for Cao Ren's anger to subside before it is too late to seek to return to the country."

Zhao Wuxian gave Cao Bo a few perfunctory words, and asked people to let him go down, and Xiang Lu beside him stepped forward and said, "Does the lord plan to let Cao Bo be reinstated?" After experiencing this, Cao Bo should be able to obey the king's orders. ”

Wuxian put away his previous smile and said coldly: "No, my trust is limited, and I won't give him a second chance to betray." ”

Xiang Lu knew that Zhao Wuxian's attitude towards the changes in Cao Guo was very clear, when Zigong launched a rebellion and expelled Cao Jun, Wuxian was stunned, and even Dao Zigong did a good job, so that Tao Qiu went down without a fight, far beyond his expectations.

Ministers from the Jin Kingdom, such as Yang Yin, reminded worriedly, saying that this kind of precedent of chasing the king from the people might not be encouraged, but Zhao Wuxian did not think so.

"Shi Kuang of the Jin Kingdom said that a wise king should reward the good and punish the wicked, and nurture the people as they love their children, covering them like the sky and allowing them like the earth; If this is the case, the people will serve the king and love him like parents, look up to him like the sun and the moon, respect him like a god, fear him like thunder, and before it is too late to support him, how can they expel him? The king is the chief priest of the gods and the hope of the people. If, on the contrary, the livelihood of the people is poor, the worship of the gods is deprived, the people are desperate, and the society is left ownerless, then what is the use of this king? If he is not expelled, what will he do if he is kept? ”

He set the tone for this matter: "Therefore, I only heard that Cao Guo killed the evil minister Gongsun Jiang, and chased Cao Yang, but I didn't hear about his king!" ”

Xiang Lu recalled this, and really felt deafening, he wrote it down, and asked, "Then how to deal with Cao Guo?" Now that Zigong has controlled Taoqiu, our army has occupied the north, and the Song army has occupied the south, how to divide it is also a problem. ”

"The southern provinces of Cao State are directly under the rule of the Song State, and the Song people have coveted this place for a long time, and the Song Dynasty has contributed the most to this war, so I should also express my gratitude appropriately, and my uncle and brother Ziming should be happy to keep their mouths together."

"As for Taoqiu and the north, this capital is too important to be handed over to others, let Zigong maintain the status quo for the time being, and discuss it when he comes to see me, who knows the situation of Taoqiu better than him? For now, let's solve the defense of the country first, and then talk about other things! ”

Outside the big tent, a large group of men and horses in the barracks were marching out, preparing to enter the city. Just when Zhao Wuxian was delayed by the change of Cao Guo and stayed in Diqiu for half a month, he had already captured Diqiu Waiguo, and now only thousands of guards are still fighting in the inner city!

"We have been delaying the defense of the country for too long, and we will break this city tonight! I also hope to have a feast in the palace of the country, to receive the wind for Mr. Ji Ran, and to celebrate Zigong, so that he, a patriot, can return to his hometown! ”

With that person's refuge and acceptance, it shouldn't be difficult to take all the emperors before the sun rises tomorrow.

The succession of good news made Zhao Wuxian feel happy, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "I promised Kong Yu that I would leave Hou Yuan's life, hoping to capture him alive, and then spend the rest of my life in Chaoge and Cao Boyang." I will repair the mansion for them, it must be adjacent to the left and right, I have thought of the nickname of the mansion, the left is happy, the right is fate, it is also very interesting......"

Cao's voice of the death of the country is nearing the end, and the sound of the defense of the country has also been played!
