The main general of the Cao army was defeated and captured, the drums in the church army rumbled, the flag was unfurled, the horn sounded, the church guards in Dingtao City swarmed up, Xu Chu copied the big knife, wow wow shouted and led the troops to kill the left flank of the Cao army, Tai Shi Ci spear in his hand went straight to the right flank of the Cao army, and Zhang Fei, Dian Wei, and Hercules led the Chinese army to kill the sky, which was overwhelming.

Luan Yi did not participate in this victorious battle, and continued to cheer for his brothers on the drum platform. The drums in his hands danced more and more fiercely, and the drums of "dong dong" resounded in the sky, and these drums beaten by the sect leader himself were like stimulants, straight into the hearts of the guards. Each knock will give the Guards a big boost in morale.

"For the glory of Our Lady!"

The two streams of people collided together, like waves in the vast ocean, but the waves that symbolized the side of the church clearly prevailed, and it only took one charge to crush Cao Cao's vanguard army and swallow it under the magnificent waves. Then came the waves that rose and fell, and the fierce battle lasted less than two pillars of incense. The Cao army's army was torn apart by the Church army, unable to take care of each other, unable to rush to the left and right, and became a mess.

Zhang Fei, Dian Wei, Hercules, Xu Chu, Tai Shici...... A group of fierce generals rushed left and right, and no one could stop them. Cao Bing was horrified, knowing that the defeat was decided, and fled one after another.

The chaotic deserters further accelerated the speed of defeat, and quickly developed from the escape of individual soldiers to the collective rout of the entire army and horses.

The Church army took advantage of the situation to cover up and kill, killing thousands of enemies and capturing many people. has been chasing out for more than 20 miles, and the scouts have to report that Cao Cao personally led the Chinese army to help, so he collected his troops and returned to the city.

Cao Cao lost tens of thousands of horses and horses, not to mention for the time being, and also lost the most courageous general under the account. The first battle was unfavorable, and the pace of the attack was decisively stopped, and Chen soldiers put on a defensive posture on the Yanzhou border.

The war then reached a stalemate, and both sides were particularly afraid of each other, for fear that a move would inadvertently lead to the danger of falling into the nest, and they were cautious in their actions and did not dare to act easily, and there was no war for a long time.

There was an eerie and quiet atmosphere on the western border of Yanzhou. However, anyone with a discerning eye knows that this silence is only a superficial phenomenon, and there are turbulent waves hidden under the silence.

The scouts on both sides were busy, sending snowflakes of information to their respective Chinese military tents. Among the many pieces of information in Luan Yi's hands, one is closely related to Zhang Xiu.

After reading this information, Luan Yi couldn't help but smile, although the world has deviated from its original track under his influence, people's hearts have not changed, and some things will happen after all, but it is just a change of time and place.

Just like Cao Cao, in history, when he rushed to Wancheng to recruit Zhang Xiu, he was overwhelmed by the beauty of Zhang Xiu's widowed aunt Zou, so he had a bad heart and took the beauty in his arms. He never thought that Zhang Xiu had a grudge when he learned about this and sent him to death. Fortunately, the soldiers defended it to the death, and finally escaped from the ascension.

His losses in this battle were not insignificant, not only did he compensate his eldest son Cao Ang, but even Dian Wei died in Zhang Xiu's counterattack. It was an eternal pain in his life.

The current state of affairs is completely different from history, Zhang Xiu is no longer a big prince assisted by Jia Xu, but was eliminated by Cao Cao early and thrown into Cao Cao's account. Dian Wei is no longer the loyal door god by Cao Cao's side, but has become Luan Yi's righteous eldest brother.

However, the way of the world has changed, but people's hearts have not changed, for example...... Cao Cao's lustful heart.

After Zhang Xiu's defeat, in order to prevent the whole family from suffering because of this, Zhang Xiu's aunt Zou found Cao Cao and begged him not to cause trouble to his family because of Zhang Xiu's defeat.

When they met each other, Cao Cao twitched Zou's face, and his eyes straightened. Secretly sigh that there are such beautiful people in this world besides Diao Chan. The color heart was up, and the idea of occupying the Zou clan immediately arose.

And the Zou family, the family suffered hardship, lost Zhang Xiu, the pillar, and her own life was difficult to protect. In order to find a place to survive in this troubled world, she is willing to pay her own **.

So, Cao Cao and Zou, one had a heart and the other had an intention, and the dry firewood quickly got together when it met the fire.

The aunt is committed to serving her father-in-law...... This is obviously a great shame for Zhang Xiu.

Therefore, after confirming the authenticity of this news, Luan Yi decisively recruited Zhang Xiu, personally untied him, and handed the letter to Zhang Xiu with a regretful look, "Take a look!" ”

Zhang Xiu glanced at it for a while, his face changed greatly, he tore the spy report to pieces, and shouted with trembling hands: "Impossible!" This must have been made up by you. It is to say that I have resorted to the means. ”

"Old Peacock Open Screen!" Luan Yi snorted coldly, and seeing that the people in the tent didn't understand the implication of his words, he added: "The old peacock opens the screen - he is amorous!" He stretched out his arms and swept the civil and military under the tent, "Who said I was going to surrender you?" I want my apologetic army to be like a cloud, except for Zilong, my brother Dian Wei Dian Qihe, Zhang Fei Zhang Yide, Xu Chu, Xu Zhongkang, Taishi Ziyi, each of the three brave champions, why lack of you. Why did they invent such despicable rumors without intending to surrender? What kind of person are you and I Luanyi! ”

"You ......" I don't know if it's because I believe in my aunt's adultery with Cao Cao, or because I can't believe the reality that Luan Yi didn't accept her will, my body trembled like a spasm, and I looked decadent.

"Cao thief is too insulting, I Zhang Xiu and you don't share the sky!" vented the negative emotions deposited in his heart by roaring, but his expression was still lonely. He said to Luan Yi: "I have no intention of surrendering, if you kill me for a hundred, you don't have to live in the world to attract ridicule." ”

Luan Yi's eyebrows tightened and said solemnly: "It's not so easy to die. In the past, when Zhang Ji was alive, your uncle and nephew acted as tigers and helped Dong Zhuo's dog thieves do many evil things. He killed unarmed civilians to act as bandits, and exchanged their heads for military exploits. It's up to you to think of such a hurtful thing. ”

"That's the prime minister...... Oh no, Dong Zhuo's order. Zhang Xiu wanted to refute, but was interrupted by Luan Yi.

"He told you to do the same, did you do the same?" Luan Yi's sharp eyes stared at Zhang Xiu who couldn't raise his head, "Obviously...... You won't. If you know that your life is precious, why should you take the lives of others for no reason? It's a heinous crime. I will not spare you for such a great evil. ”

"What do you want? Ling Chi? Split the body or cut it in half. Thinking of the miserable howls of those who died late, and the appearance of those who were beheaded by the half, their upper bodies were still climbing on the ground, and their intestines and liver flowed all over the ground, Zhang Xiu's spine was cold.

"I said I wouldn't let you go so easily. If you want to die, you have to wait until after the atonement. ”

Zhang Xiu became more and more unable to understand the meaning of Luan Yi's words. "What are you going to do with me?"

"Laogai!" Luan Yi walked back to the main position in the tent with his hand, "The canal in Xuzhou has just started, and I will send someone to escort you there to build the canal and embankment with the craftsmen." ”

Hearing Luan Yi say that he would engage in a cheap craftsman's business, Zhang Xiu was furious, "Soldiers can be killed, but not humiliated!" ”

"It's not that easy to die!" Luan Yi snorted coldly, didn't say more, and directly ordered the knife and axe hand in the tent to put down Zhang Xiu, who was chirping crookedly and scolding.

Zhao Yun glanced at Zhang Xiu's lonely back, wanted to speak and stopped, and when he returned after eating for a long time, he decided to intercede for Zhang Xiu, "Lord! When Yun was studying art in the mountains, he often heard the master mention the past of the second senior brother. I know that my brother is kind to others, diligent and studious, and he is essentially a good person. The reason why he did evil things was actually because he was close to ink, and it was not his original intention to be bewitched by Dong Thief and his uncle in the wrong court. Therefore, Yun is here to plead with the main public network to open up and give the second senior brother a chance to stay in the sect and serve his life. ”

Luan Yi and Guo Jia looked at each other and laughed. Guo Jia said: "Zilong rest assured, the sect leader also has the heart to accept Zhang Xiu. It's just that he feels arrogant, and he accepts him so easily, he must not be sincere. Only then did he let him go to the diocesan to experience the life of believers at the grassroots level. Once he saw the current situation of the people in the diocese who were prosperous and well-being, he would definitely look at the Holy Church differently. At that time, there is no need for us to coerce and lure, he will take the initiative to vote, and he will be loyal. ”

Zhao Yun smiled with relief, "The sect leader has a far-sighted plan, and he has already planned it. The clouds are full of hearts! ”

Luan Yi raised the corners of his mouth and said, "Zilong is too famous!" ”

After discussing the city defense matters for a while, the generals dispersed one after another, Luan Yidu left Guo Jia alone, and asked in a low voice: "Is the Zou family reliable?" ”

Guo Jia responded: "I can rest assured that my brother will do things." The Zou family has been religious for more than four years and is very religious. After Bai Lu, who was lurking in Xuchang, found her identity, she immediately expressed her joy to the Virgin Mary and that she was willing to do anything for the church. After several years of teaching and investigation, the facts have proved that she is indeed firm in her faith. The Church has received a lot of information before. ”

Luan Yi nodded. Intentionally planting flowers does not bloom, and unintentionally planting willows and willows into the shade. He originally wanted to use the Zou family to spy on Zhang Xiu, but he never thought that he would now become an important chess piece by Cao Cao's side. "Excellent! Cao Cao is cunning, so she must not show her feet. Serve Cao Cao honestly, and you must not take any action without the order of the sect leader. Otherwise, it will fall short. ”

"Got it!"

……

After leaving the church hall, Zhang Xiu and 500 others were escorted by a team of church guards to Xiapi, Xuzhou, and then arranged by the local archbishop to be sent to a small riverside village called Dingjiawan.

At this time, more than 300 craftsmen on the construction site by the river are in full swing.

The regimental lieutenant in charge of the escort handed over the prisoners to a steward, and said, "Mr. Jane, this person is handed over to you!" ”

"Oops! I'm short of manpower. The steward surnamed Jian poked his head and looked, "There are a lot of people!" Well done! ”

The church captain smiled, leaned over to the steward surnamed Jian, pointed at Zhang Xiu and said, "This guy's name is Zhang Xiu, and he used to be their leader." You have to be a good official, don't have an accident. ”

The steward surnamed Jian waved his hand, "When I arrived at the territory of the diocese, with the protection of Our Lady, he couldn't set off a big storm even if he was so capable." Saying that, he walked up to Zhang Xiu, snatched the key from the captain's waist, and unshackled Zhang Xiu without hesitation.

In this regard, Zhang Xiu was very suspicious and asked: "If you loosen the shackles so much, you are not afraid that I will escape?" ”

"Don't worry, you can't run!"
