Chapter 703: It's All Family

The riots in Nanzheng City did not last long and soon subsided. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Cao Jun swarmed in, and Yang Song was the internal response, so he did not encounter too many twists and turns. The Hanzhong army stationed in the city didn't even have time to react, and they became prisoners of the ranks. With a list provided by Yang Song, Dianman arrested and detained Zhang Lu's cronies, as well as some powerful and dignitaries.

Of course, this list is inevitably mixed with some of Jansper's enemies. [bsp; Dian Man knows that he has his own plans.

After the Cao army besieged the Taishou Mansion, it did not attack.

As the city gradually calmed down, Zhang Lu closed his eyes, and his face revealed a touch of helpless bitterness.

"Open the door!"

"Lord ......"

At this time, Zhang Lu had completely calmed down and returned to his former calm appearance.

He stretched out his hand and patted the young man standing beside him with a vigilant look on his face, as if he was talking to himself: "If it is determined by heaven, no one can stop it. Cao Jun didn't attack, it's not that they can't attack, but to save face for me. Don't be afraid, it's okay! It's a big deal to give Hanzhong to them.

Go back and take care of your mother and your sister, and don't let them worry too much......"

"Father!"

"Go for it......"

Zhang Lu said, tidy up your clothes.

The young man was his only son, named Zhang Fu.

Zhang Lu has a son and a daughter, and the daughter is also thirteen years old.

Zhang Fu nodded, although he was reluctant, he still obeyed the order.

Zhang Lu took a deep breath, walked out of the hall, and shouted in a deep voice: "Put down all your weapons and open the door of the mansion." ”

"Lord, we can still fight."

Suddenly, a young man stepped forward and said loudly: "Although Cao's army has entered the city, there are still two generals outside the city, Shen Tan and Shen Yi, and there are thousands of soldiers and horses in their hands. What's more, the distance between Chuyang and Nanzheng is only a day and night away. When General Yan Pu learns the news, he will definitely rescue him quickly, and we still have some chance of winning. ”

Zhang Lu frowned and glanced at the young man.

"What's your name?"

"The last general, Wang Ping, is a Brazilian.

His maternal grandfather, He Yong, was Nan Zheng Gongcao. Although his grandfather grew up in Nanzheng since he was a child, after his grandfather died, he obeyed orders in the house. ”

But it's his own general!

Zhang Lu glanced at Wang Ping and smiled calmly, "Do you think Yan Pu can really be able to fight in Nanzheng?" How many horses did the Cao army have? Who is handsome? They can enter Nanzheng without knowing it, how can they not take precautions? I hope that Yan Pu will not come, otherwise, the Cao army will inevitably be ambushed.

This trend is also!

Cao Cao and his nephew Cao Peng were all governors of the northwest, and their purpose was not simply for the rebellion between Hehuang and Ma'er.

The situation in the northwest is not enough for him to release Cao Peng, a tiger. Cao Peng appeared in the northwest, and now that I think about it, the real purpose is probably still in Hanzhong. Otherwise, the war in Bingzhou was so fierce, why didn't Cao Cao let Cao Peng supervise the battle in northern Xinjiang? You are too young to understand the ingenuity in this...... Even if he repels Cao's army this time, he will have a tragic revenge when Cao Peng returns to Hanzhong. That King Cao Yan is not an enemy in Hanzhong.

Okay, Hugh will say more, and stand down. ”

Zhang Lu said, and walked down the steps with his clothes.

Wang Ping was unwilling, and after hesitating for a moment, he followed Zhang Lu.

The door of the Taishou Mansion was wide open, and Zhang Lu walked out of the mansion gate. He stood on the doorstep, looking at Cao Jun, who was half-squatting and resting outside the door, but still maintaining vigilance, and suddenly had a ridiculous feeling in his heart. When did he think of today's situation? Taking a deep breath, I tried to calm the irritability and panic in my heart.

Zhang Lu said: "A certain Hanzhong guards Zhang Lu, dare to ask which general is presiding here?" ”

"Lord!"

Before he could finish speaking, a man ran out of the crowd.

Zhang Lu recognized it at a glance, and the person who came was the strategist he had always trusted and thought was his confidant, Yang Song.

"To be humble is not to betray the Lord, but to plot for the Lord.

Now the king of Wei presides over the court, and there is a statue of Daxing. Why did the lord resist the imperial army in order to be in a corner of peace? ”

Zhang Lu smiled, "Bonian, I underestimated you!" ”

"Huh?"

"I didn't expect that you would dare to come to see me with such a thick skin and such a situation?"

"I ......"

"The villain who has his back on his back dares to make noise here."

Wang Ping, who was standing behind Zhang Lu, saw Yang Song, and his eyes were about to burst into flames. As soon as Zhang Lu's words fell, he burst out and drew his sword and stabbed Yang Song. Yang Song was startled, and hurriedly turned around and ran.

"Xiaozhi, save me!"

In his mind, as long as he shouted like this, Cao Jun would swarm up and save him.

Unexpectedly, no matter how he shouted, those Cao Jun did not move. Just looked at him quietly, as if looking at an inanimate puppet. Yang Song shook his head and immediately understood!

This is to cross the river and tear down the bridge......

"Fa Xiaozhi!"

He shouted, not wanting that Wang Ping had already arrived behind him, and raised his sword and slashed Yang Song to the ground.

At the same time, Fa Zheng slowly walked out of the crowd with a warm smile on his face.

If Cao Peng was here, he would not dare to recognize him. The appearance of Fa Zheng has changed too much...... Compared to a few months ago, I am significantly thinner. The whole person is black and thin, but he looks in good spirits. He came to the man and didn't look at the corpse of Jansson. Taking out a list from his bosom, he beckoned to Wang Ping.

"Give this to Lu Gong."

"Huh?"

Wang Ping was stunned for a moment, and looked at Fa Zheng with some confusion.

Fa Zheng smiled at him, "He is indeed a loyal and upright man...... Don't be afraid, just give it to Lu Gong, I don't blame it. ”

Wang Ping's face suddenly turned red!

He glanced back at Zhang Lu, and Zhang Lu also woke up from the shock at this time.

To be honest, when Wang Ping rushed out just now, he scared Zhang Lu a lot. When Yang Song died at the hands of Wang Ping, he still felt confused. But soon, he understood why. Cao Jun didn't want to embarrass him. In other words, Cao Jun also needs him Zhang Lu to live and stabilize the situation for them.

Zhang Lu nodded and motioned for Wang Ping to take the letter.

Wang Ping took the letter, vigilantly retreated to Zhang Lu's side, and presented the letter.

This is a list, in which not only Zhang Lu's henchmen, but also some of the gentry and wealthy families of Nanzheng. Of course, there are also many innocent people in it, who were obviously framed by Yang Song and included in the list.

"Lu Gong, in Xia Fazheng, Xi is the former general's mansion."

"Fazheng?"

Zhang Lu put away the letter, stared at Fa Zheng, and suddenly sneered and said: "Now a certain person is not a prisoner under the stairs, and the word Lu Gong is ashamed." But I don't know what advice is in the franc? Do you want Zhang Lu to sacrifice his head? ”

When Wang Ping heard this, he subconsciously clenched his sword.

Fa Zheng smiled, he stood with his hands in his hands, and shook his head again and again, "Lu Gong has not known the form until now?" ”

"Huh?"

"I was about to kill Lu Gong, and it was effortless.

Lu Gong is too guarded, and in the eyes of righteousness, it is nothing. If you want to kill Lu Gong, you have already broken through the mansion, why wait until now? Maybe the Lu Guild thought that he didn't dare to kill Lu Gong in order to ask Lu Gong for help. ”

"Isn't it?"

"Duke Lu, my army is in Nanzheng, but you don't know anything.

Do you think that just Hanzhong can really hinder the footsteps of my general? It is easy to take Hanzhong, but the general is nostalgic and unwilling to kill. In the past, the generals of our family had weak troops, such as rootless wanderers, but they took Liangzhou lightly and shocked the northwest. Now the general has an army of 300,000 in the northwest, and he has countless baggage, and he can break into Hanzhong at any time, so that the blood of Nanzheng will flow like a river...... But the general didn't do it!

It's really the love of the past. ”

Old?

Zhang Lu was really confused this time.

He thought about it, but he couldn't think of any old relationship with Cao Peng.

How old is Cao Pengcai, how can he have a relationship with Zhang Lula? When Cao Peng was born, Zhang Lu had already entered the office. When Cao Peng became famous, Zhang Lu sat firmly on the throne of the king of Hanzhong, how could he have an old relationship with Cao Peng? Could it be that I know Cao Peng's parents? Impossible...... I heard that Cao Peng grew up in Nanyang since he was a child, and his parents have nothing to do with Hanzhong, where does this old relationship start?

Zhang Lu looked puzzled and looked at Fa Zheng in a daze.

"Lu Gong, do you still remember Bazhou Mi Xionghu?"

"Gan Mao?"

When Zhang Lu heard the name Gan Mao, he couldn't help but call out.

Bazhou Mi Xiong, that is the veteran of the Five Dou Mi Sect. In terms of seniority, when Zhang Lu saw Gan Mao, he also had to respect his uncle. However, later Liu Yan and his son suppressed the Wudou Mi Sect, and Zhang Lu turned against him, and the Wudou Mi Sect immediately withdrew from Yizhou. Gan Mao had a disagreement with Zhang Lu at that time and refused to leave Yizhou...... Later, Gan Mao was persecuted by Liu Yan's father and son, and finally had to leave his hometown and go to the Central Plains.

Every time he thinks about this, Zhang Lu feels pity.

Naganmao is the protector of the Five Doumi Sect and a talent.

It's a pity that since then, Zhang Lu has never heard of Gan Mao.

"Mao Gong, are you safe today?"

Zhang Lu was a little excited, and couldn't help but take a step forward and look at Fazheng.

Fa Zheng sighed softly and said in a low voice: "Mao Gong died of illness in Xingyang four years ago, and now he is buried in Tianling Mountain. ”

"Huh?"

Zhang Lu couldn't help but show a look of loss.

Fa Zhengdao: "The general of my family, when he was young, was helped by Mao Gong, and he had the grace to live the whole family. After his career, Mao Gong stayed in Xingyang, the general's private residence. The general was punished by the king for killing Wei Duan's father and son in anger, and lived in Xingyang for two years. When he was extremely depressed, it was Mao Gong who explained Huang Ting to him every day, so he was relieved. Duke Mao had intended to entrust the general and asked him to take care of the five buckets of rice on his behalf......

The general responded.

Before his death, Hou Mao Gong held the general's hand and said: If you see the Heavenly Master one day, please protect the Dharma for five buckets of rice.

General, too! ”

Zhang Lu didn't know why, and suddenly a burst of ecstasy surged in his heart.

In other words, that Cao Peng Cao Yan is a person in my sect? If it has Cao Peng's support, the Wudou Mi Sect will definitely be able to go out of Xichuan and gain a foothold in the Central Plains. And isn't this also the dream of his father and son?

Zhang Lu put it bluntly, he is a religious person.

Including his governance of Hanzhong, it was all carried out according to the pattern of religion.

If you investigate it, he can be regarded as the first person in history to integrate church and state. It was only later that the Wudou Mi Sect suffered a blow, and after Zhang Lu lost his foundation in Hanzhong, his development became slow. Slowly, Taoism flourished, and the former Wudoumi Sect also changed its door and became a branch of Taoism.

At this time, there was no Taoism.

When Zhang Lu learned that Cao Peng was Gan Mao, the protector of the Five Dou Mi Sect, he immediately thought of the future development direction of the Five Dou Mi Sect. Based in Hanzhong, out of Xichuan, into Guanzhong, to the Central Plains.

A smile immediately appeared on his face.

In this way, this Five Dou Rice Sect will inevitably be carried forward in his hands.

Zhang Lu is an idealist who is obsessed with religion and goes far beyond politics. This can be seen from his use of the canons of the Five Doumi Sect to govern Hanzhong.

And Fa Zheng was secretly happy in his heart.

Gan Mao had indeed died of illness, just before Cao Peng became the Taishou of Nanyang.

At that time, Gan Mao was in Xingyang, while Cao Peng was in Xudu, responsible for the affairs of welcoming the Lu Han delegation.

Therefore, this lonely thing must not have happened.

But Gan Mao did intend to let Cao Peng take care of the Wudou Rice Sect, which was what Cao Peng told him before Fa Zheng set off. Along the way, Fa Zheng has been constantly improving such a story. He found that if Zhang Lu wanted to die hard, the best way was to have something to do with the Wudou Rice Sect. Now that Cao Peng knows Gan Mao, he has such a friendship with Gan Mao. Moreover, Gan Mao's nephew Gan Ning is also from Cao Peng's disciple, such a story, if he can't use it well, he will not be Fa Zheng.

"Xiaozhi, please come into the house and speak."

Zhang Lu's attitude has changed dramatically, and he is polite sideways.

And Wang Ping looked confused, why did he become like a family all of a sudden?

Fa Zheng arched his hand, "That's it, it's just disrespectful!"

However, please also ask Lu Gong to sort out the list as soon as possible...... The commander of the army this time is my general's righteous brother Dian Mandian Zhonglang. He is the eldest son of the Marquis of Gaoyang Pavilion, and he is in charge of cleaning up the people on the list...... Wouldn't it be bad if there was a misunderstanding? Therefore, it is best for Lu Gong to sort out the list first, and I will immediately inform Dian Zhonglang and ask his subordinates to be merciful. ”

"This ......"

Zhang Lu's mind turned around, and he immediately said: "Why don't I go to see the young prince with Xiaozhi?" ”

The smile on Fa Zheng's face is even greater!

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Before you know it, it's August.

The osmanthus flowers bloom all over the mountain, and the fragrance is wafting for ten miles......

Cao Peng rode his horse and walked on the road to Longguan.

Beside him, a group of carriages drove slowly, accompanied by domestic servants and slaves, all of whom seemed cautious.

The battle of Hehuang has ended.

Just as Li Teng had guessed, Agui ambushed Zhiduo on the way and killed him. and then quickly contacted Cao Xiu...... Who knows, when Agui arrived at the Cao army camp, he was detained by Cao Xiu, saying that he was sent to Yecheng to meet Cao Cao, and only with Cao Cao's personal recognition could he become the king of Di.

However, as soon as Agui went to Yecheng, he never returned to Hehuang.

A few years later, he died of 'drinking and indulgence' and was buried outside Yecheng. And his tribe was soon annexed by Li Teng. After Cao Peng and Cao Xiu converged, they didn't communicate much with Cao Xiu.

He knew that Cao Xiu had already made proper arrangements in his heart.

This time, he went to Hehuang, the purpose has been achieved, and there is no need to go to Fei's tongue again, but he will offend Cao Xiu.

At the end of the fourteenth year of Jian'an, Cao Xiu ordered the Hehuangdi people to move into Liangzhou.

At the same time, a large number of displaced people migrated from the Central Plains and settled in Hehuang...... Since then, the river has ceased to be the river of Qiang, and the Han and Hu have lived together, gradually prospering. Although Li Teng did not fulfill his wish, he did not make Li Ju achieve the position of King Di. However, Li Ju became Cao Xiu's subordinate, and Cao Xiu was very important.

The Li Teng tribe moved to Longxi County.

With the development of the times,Constantly sinicized...... A hundred years later, the Li Teng tribe took off the identity of the Di people, and merged with the Li clan, a wealthy clan in Guanzhong, to become a branch of the Li family, and established the Longxi Tang number.

However, this has nothing to do with Cao Peng.

After several months of recuperation, Cao Ji's condition has improved a lot, and he has become much more energetic. And Wang Mai, the injury is gradually recovering. When Cao Peng returned to Longxi from Hehuang, Cao Cao's appointment also arrived.

Ren Cao Ji was appointed as the great Si Nong, the official was in the Jiuqing sequence, and he stayed in Xudu.

Wang Mai, as the captain of the city gate, ranks 2,000 stones, and worships the river pavilion. This He Ting is located on the bank of the West Sea of Hehuang, which is the station of the Qiang back then. After Poqiang was eliminated by Cao Peng, Cao Cao ordered the establishment of a river pavilion. As a result, Wang Mai, the former governor of the west, also got the title of Marquis of Heting, which can be described as infinitely beautiful.

The captain of the city gate is also an extremely important position.

Wang Mai's appointment to this official position was not only Cao Cao's reward for his hard work in guarding Hehuang in the past few years, but also the intention of asking him to monitor Emperor Xudu Han. After all, Cao Cao set up the royal capital in Yecheng, so he naturally wanted to strengthen his control over Xu Du. Speaking of which, Wang Mai is also his Cao Cao's person...... Because of his relationship with Cao Peng, he was regarded as a confidant by Cao Cao. Who else could be more suitable than Wang Mai?

At the age of twenty-nine, he served as the captain of the city gate, which is not unique, but it is also rare.

The strength of Cao Peng's family has risen to a new level. Cao Zhen became the Taishou of Zhangling, Deng Fan became the Taishou of Wuling, full of Xu Yi, and he had already worshiped Zhonglang General, and Cao Peng was the captain of the school.

Back then, Xiao Bayi, except for Zhu Zan, who had been dead for many years, basically went to a high position.

Cao Zun's official position was the youngest, but he was in charge of Dongcao, one of the thirteen Caos of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

This Dongcao, the main two thousand stone officials were removed, including the military officials. Its nature is similar to the secretary general of Cao Cao's secretariat, and all the appointments and dismissals of officials in the imperial court have to pass through here, and the power is huge.

It has been a few days since Cao Ji and Wang Mai received their appointments.

However, due to Cao Peng's orders, he did not come back, and neither of them could leave.

So it was not until Cao Peng returned to Longxi that Cao Ji Wang bought it before he set off. Along the way, Cao Peng took care of Cao Ji carefully, and often pulled Wang Mai to talk. In fact, Wang Mai was also suspicious of Ma Yunlu at first. It's just that Zhao Yun is in the middle, so it's not good for him to interrogate too much. Now that Zhao Yun and Ma Yunlu and his wife have returned to their hearts, Wang Mai is also relieved, saying that he will not take Ma Yunlu's ambush to heart about him......

At the same time, he also praised Ma Yunlu for his skillful guns and horses, and his shooting skills were amazing.

Wang Mai is also a general, although he was ambushed, but it was real, and he was defeated by Ma Yunlu.

also admires Ma Yunlu's martial arts.

"Okay, I know that if you ask Zilong and his wife to help, you will definitely not agree."

Wang Mai pulled Cao Peng and said with a smile: "Ah Fu, I don't have your vision, so I can't recruit anyone." But as you can see, I am alone as the captain of the city gate, and if I don't have a few caring people, I'm afraid it won't be easy to do things. Give me a few helpers, you won't let Zilong and his wife go, and let them go to Xudu, but it's a pity that they have good martial arts. That rustle, can you lend it to me? ”

"No way!"

Cao Peng didn't say a word, and then refused Wang Mai's request.

"It's not that I refuse to let go of Shasha, it's that his temperament is too violent, and going to Xu Du will cause you to provoke right and wrong."

"Then I don't care, you have to give me a few people."

Between Wang Mai and Cao Peng, they are naturally not polite, and they speak very casually.

This made Cao Peng a little embarrassed......

"My brother-in-law is looking for someone to me, and you are looking for someone to ask me to be ...... When I left Hehuang, Wen Lie also asked me for someone.

The people around me have been swept away by you, where else is there to choose? ”

His eyes swept over the people around him, and Shamoke immediately spoke: "Childe, my father asked me to follow you, where are you going, where am I going...... If you don't go to Xudu, then I won't go to Xudu. ”

Zhao Yun was about to speak, but was stopped by Cao Peng.

"Zilong, don't worry, even if you want to go, I don't agree."

He thought about it for a moment and beckoned Cai Di and Du Shu to come over.

"Xiao Di has been with me for many years, worked in the army, and also studied in the academy.

Although he is still young, he is calm and excellent at riding and shooting...... What about Wu Bo? Quick thinking, but also can be cultivated talents. On the Xu Du side, after my previous slaughter, it is estimated that there will not be much to do. Those who should be honest will be very honest, and those who are not honest will almost be killed by me.

Xiaodi and Wu Bo, one article and one martial arts, should be enough to help you.

I can only give you two of them...... Tiger head, don't bother your mouth, if you don't want it, I'm the happiest. I also want to keep the two of them by my side and hone one or two more. Yes, it's the two of them; Otherwise, there is none. ”

Of course Wang Mai is not satisfied!

But there is nothing to be done......

Who made him not so famous? doesn't have Cao Peng's vicious eyes?

didn't look at Cai Di and Du Shu, they were both reluctant. For these two people, Wang Mai is also relieved.

Counting up, Cai Di is Cao Peng's son and nephew.

What about Du Shu?

His son Du Ji, from Cao Peng's family, has also lived in Xingyang for many years, and definitely belongs to Cao Peng's lineage.

That's it, with the two of them, it's better than nothing.

Wang Mai nodded reluctantly, but Cai Di and Du Shu showed disappointment.

Cao Peng couldn't help laughing, pressed the melon seeds on the heads of the two, and said softly: "You two should not be dissatisfied, when you arrive in Xudu, help your Uncle Hutou do things." Remember, there is no place where you can't do things and can't learn, only people who can't do things and don't want to learn...... Xudu, that's a complicated place.

You two must not take it lightly. ”

Cai Di Du Shu, bowed down on the horse to receive the order......

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

The team came to Longguan, and Xu Huang and Hanyang Taishou Shitao came to greet them.

"Yangcheng, haven't you conquered it yet?"

Xu Huang and Shi Tao couldn't help but show a look of shame, nodded and said: "Ma Chao is extremely tenacious, and he has been defending Yangcheng for more than a month, but he is still self-reliant. He had no food or grass in his city, and he even relied on cannibalism to feed his belly......

I didn't expect Ma Chao to be so powerful. ”

Cao Peng did not speak.

After pondering for a moment, he said in a low voice: "Ma Chao, the mountains and rivers are exhausted, but he has relied on a breath to support until now, and sooner or later he will be defeated."

I finally have a friendship with him, so let me take a look.

Guangyuan, you immediately give the order to retreat ten miles.

Brother Gongming didn't continue to attack, only increasing casualties......

Tomorrow, I will go to Yangcheng and meet Ma Chao. Always a good man, it's a pity that he has all his skills. (To be continued)
