Since April, the temperature in Lintao has risen sharply. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, Cao Ji was still wearing thick clothes, his face was pale, he was haggard, and his cheeks and cheekbones were protruding, looking like a skeleton. Cao Peng was also taken aback when he saw it. He knew that Cao Ji was sick, but he didn't expect that he was so sick that Cao Peng couldn't imagine it. [bsp; Cao Ji in memory is a strong and strong person.

Can ...... now

"Father!"

Cao Peng walked a few steps and came to the sickbed.

Cao Ji was about to sit up, and when he saw Cao Peng coming, a smile appeared on his face, but it was a little ugly.

"Ah Fu, you're here."

In the words, there is an endless sense of exhaustion.

Cao Peng listened, his heart couldn't help but feel sour, and he quickly nodded vigorously.

The reason why Cao Ji is like this, he can more or less guess the clue. In fact, Cao Ji's condition was not very serious, but due to the outbreak of the war, the wolf smoke broke out, which made Cao Ji worry.

He wasn't a man who could rule a state.

When I first went to work, I also drove ducks to the shelves. Thinking of the northwest that his son fought single-handedly, he always had to help his son defend it. In the beginning, it was. Cao Peng left Cao Ji with a strong team, and Cao Ji didn't need to bother at all. Sometimes although it is hard work, most of the things are solved by Xu Shu and others. And locally, Bu Qi, Shi Tao, Pang Tong and others don't need him to think too hard.

However, as Cao Peng's henchmen continued to be transferred out of Liangzhou, the pressure Cao Ji felt was getting bigger and bigger......

In particular, Buqi left, and Su was in charge of Wuwei.

Even though Su Ze and Cao Peng have a relationship, they are not very close. In the final analysis, Su Ze is not Cao Peng's confidant, and Cao Ji naturally will not be too relieved. Zhao Qu was appointed as the protector of the Western Regions, and Deng Fan and Pan Zhang left Liangzhou...... A series of personnel transfers made Cao Ji quite worried, but he was helpless.

It was at this time that Ma Chao raised troops and made trouble.

The psychological pressure that Cao Ji is under is even more serious than his condition.

He had never fought a war, and he didn't know how to fight. If it weren't for Shi Tao, Xu Shu, Meng Jian, and Hao Zhao to resist the enemy, Cao Ji would probably have been unable to support it. The situation in the northwest is getting worse day by day, which makes Cao Ji worried, so his body quickly collapsed.

Fortunately, it's all gone!

Cao Peng came back, which also relieved Cao Ji.

The father just had to take care of it with peace of mind, and when he was better, the child would send his father back to the Central Plains.

My sister is about to give birth, and my mother is also looking forward to it at home.

Father, you must take care of yourself...... The king has already issued an edict to appoint his father as the great Sinon, and when the time comes, he will take office in Xudu. Our house has also expanded a lot, and the number of people has also increased a lot, so I need my father to worry about it. ”

It's useless to talk to Cao Ji about how much stone grain and how much the treasury earns!

He is a small farmer, and he likes to listen to how much his land has increased and how much his house has expanded...... and so on.

Sure enough, after Cao Peng finished speaking, Cao Ji was happy.

He lay down tiredly, took Cao Peng's hand, and said softly: "Ah Fu is here, I can sleep peacefully." ”

"Well, the baby is here."

Cao Ji slowly closed his eyes and soon fell asleep.

It can be seen that he really hasn't had a good night's sleep in a long time...... Since Ma Chao started the army, he has been under tremendous pressure, how can he sit back and relax? Now that his son is here, he has a backbone in his heart. Feeling Cao Peng by his side, Cao Ji was extremely relaxed, and he slept very sweetly this night.

Cao Peng waited for Cao Ji to fall asleep and covered him with a futon.

Walking out of the room, he beckoned the doctor to come forward and asked in a low voice, "How is my father's physical condition?" ”

"Cao Liangzhou's body is fine, but he is mainly frightened, so that he can't sleep at night and doesn't think about tea and dinner.

Worried all day, so that the health is getting worse and worse.

However, Cao Liangzhou's physical foundation is good, as long as he has a good life and will raise for a while, he can recover his vitality. ”

Cao Peng, this is like a sigh of relief, and he breathes a sigh of relief.

In that case, I am relieved......

He pondered for a moment and said in a low voice: "Then Mr. Lao bothered a lot and let my father have a good life...... I'll tell the others not to disturb anyone. Before autumn, if you have to adjust properly, I will send my father back to the Central Plains. I don't care what method you use, in short, I want my father to be strong and healthy, and return to his original appearance. ”

At this time, sending Cao Ji back is not the best choice.

Not to mention that the mountains are high and the roads are far away, and the roads are bumpy...... In terms of Cao Ji's current appearance, send it back to Xu Du, the old lady must be crazy. Therefore, Cao Peng thought about it and decided to let Cao Ji recuperate for a while.

The doctor hesitated, "General, it's not the villain who refuses."

In fact, it is not difficult to raise, but the current environment is really not suitable for Cao Liangzhou. In the villain's opinion, it is best to let Cao Liangzhou leave Lintao and change to a quiet environment, which is more conducive to physical recovery. ”

Think about it, too!

Lintao is too close to the front line, and the daily battle report is continuous.

In such an environment, it is indeed not easy for Cao Ji to take care of his body.

Cao Peng thought for a while, "In this way, I will send a message to the Taishou of Longxi, let him prepare, and send his father over to recuperate."

Without further ado, I'll arrange it as soon as possible.

You should also prepare and go to Didao with your father. ”

"Whoa!"

The doctor would not have any objections and immediately went down to prepare.

When Cao Peng returned to the side hall, before he could sit down and take a breath, he heard Wang Shuang's report: "Hao Zhao, Captain of Qinting, don't drive Xu Shu in Liangzhou, Kan Ze and others in Liangzhou, ask to see you outside the mansion." ”

"Please!"

Cao Peng took a deep breath and shouted in a deep voice.

After a while, I saw Xu Shu, Hao Zhao and others come to the hall.

There are all kinds of people, nearly ten people, all of whom are Cao Peng's cronies.

Seeing Xu Shu and the others, Cao Peng couldn't help but show a smile on his face, and he raised his hand to signal everyone not to be polite and let everyone sit down.

"Shall I come and plead guilty?"

"Yuan Zhi, what is the crime?"

"I waited for my incompetence and tiredness to worry the elderly, so that we have today's symptoms.

Shu (Zhao) (Ze) has failed to take care of the son, failed to take good care of the boss, and asked the son to punish him. ”

More than a dozen people knelt in the hall at the same time and pleaded guilty in unison.

Deng Ai and the others, who were only waiting on the sidelines, were so envious.

The big husband is like this!

Cao Peng laughed and stepped forward to help everyone up one by one.

To be honest, he was a little unhappy at first. You guys, you guys...... I entrusted my Lao Tzu to you to take care of, and you took care of it like this?

But after thinking about it again, Cao Peng was relieved.

That Ma Chao is not an idle person after all, and it happened suddenly, so it is no wonder that Xu Shu and others.

"Originally, Wang Duwei was also going to come over, but because he was unwell, he couldn't stay, so he had to ask me to wait to come and confess."

"The tiger head is also in Lintao?"

When Cao Peng heard this, he was taken aback.

He knew that Wang Mai was injured, but he didn't know that Wang Mai had come to Lintao.

This shows that Wang Mai's injuries may not be too light. Otherwise, with the temperament of a tiger head, how could he easily leave Longqi City? In other words, is it Zhao Yun guarding Longqi City now? Cao Peng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "The tiger head is also in Lintao?" How is his injury? Can it be serious? ”

"Three days ago, Wang Duwei returned to Lintao to recuperate from his injuries.

The injury was under control, but his body was still a little weak...... The river is fierce, and the worst human body. Wang Duwei's illness also came because of this. Fortunately, the boss tried his best to recall him, so he was stable. ”

Cao Peng frowned and nodded, indicating that he understood.

He beckoned Deng Ai to come over.

"Shizai, take out ten of the old ginseng I brought from Xudu, and send them to your Uncle Tiger Head immediately. You will accompany him over there and tell you Uncle Hutou, when my business is done, I will go to see him immediately. ”

Deng Ai and Wang Mai were no strangers, and hurriedly agreed.

Cao Peng asked everyone to sit down again, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly smiled.

"Gentlemen, Cao is back again!"

The atmosphere in the hall was originally a little depressing.

Regardless of whether it was Xu Shu or Hao Zhao, he couldn't help but feel a little heavy.

But as Cao Peng's words came out, everyone couldn't help laughing......

"Congratulations to Childe, return to the northwest."

"This time, I was appointed as the lieutenant of the division and the military governor of the northwest.

What needs to be done is to eliminate Ma Chao, pacify the river, and restore stability in the northwest. I can't do this alone, and I need your help. I also know that I can't complain about you. However, I ask you, from now on, not to lose a single city or a place, and to quickly stabilize the situation. ”

"The last general understands!"

Cao Peng said: "On the way, I have ordered someone to go to Hexi and summon Shiyuan to come.

But before that, I have some things that need to be rescheduled. Brother Derun, I met Zhou Jinghai in Guangling at the beginning of the year. He is now in charge of Tanglin Island and leads the naval army alone, which is quite hard...... When I came back, Zhou Jinghai asked me to send helpers. He called you by name, I wonder if you want to go? ”

Kan Ze is now in his thirties and nearly forty years old.

Compared with the original post guard of Nawu County, the whole person has also changed dramatically.

He is cold and dignified, but still gentle and elegant.

After hearing it at first glance, Kan Ze was stunned, and then smiled and said: "This matter needs to be arranged by the son, and Ze has no objection......

But this old Zhou really refuses to let me go.

When I left Hercy, he shouted that he would let me go back sooner or later......

Unexpectedly, he actually did it! It's just that Childe wants me to go to Tanglin Island, I'm afraid it's not just as simple as assisting Lao Zhou. ”

Kan Ze, really smart!

Cao Peng smiled and nodded, "I am not satisfied with Brother Derun, and now I feel pressure."

At the end of last year, Sun Quan transferred his important minister Lu Su and Lu Zijing to Danyang and served as the Taishou of Danyang. Na Lu Su is a person with great means, and he is also accompanied by Lu Meng, Jiang Qin, Ding Feng and others, and Uncle Zhou can definitely deal with it. Although Chen Jiao is a talent, it is a pity that he does not pay attention to military affairs. I have reported to the king, transferred Chen Jiao out of Guangling, and arranged for Ling Ming to be appointed as the Taishou of Guangling. But in comparison, there are still some shortcomings. Ling Ming is good at fighting, but he doesn't help Uncle Zhou much, so he thinks of Brother Derun. ”

Kan Ze thought for a while, "When will Gongzi Xu Ze leave?" ”

"The sooner the better!"

"Na Ze is ready immediately, and he will go to Tanglin Island in three days."

Kan Ze is a very straightforward person, and without saying a word, he agreed.

Cao Peng smiled slightly, and didn't say anything more.

He knew very well that Kan Ze would definitely be able to help Zhou Cang share the pressure. With Kan Ze here, coupled with the help of Pang De and Jiang Wan and others, as well as the support of full pets, Tanglin Island can sit back and relax in a short period of time.

Closing his eyes, Cao Peng suddenly fell silent again.

I don't know why, the hearts of Xu Shu and others are tight. As Cao Peng grew older, his official position became higher and higher, and the invisible coercion on his body became heavier and heavier. Xu Shu couldn't help but secretly sigh that the young man in front of him was no longer comparable to the young man who was still a little young when he first arrived in Xudu.

Decisive and ruthless!

King Cao Yan was furious, thousands of heads fell to the ground, and Bailuwan was full of blood......

Cao Peng's story has long been spread to Liangzhou, and Xu Shu and others are more familiar. In the past, although Cao Peng had prestige, he always made people feel kind. But Xu Du killed 2,132 traitors, which not only made him bear a huge infamy, but also added a murderous aura to him. Now, if anyone wants to challenge Cao Peng, they have to think about it, what will be the result...... This King Cao Yan is the master of killing people without blinking!

Such a result also exceeded Cao Peng's expectations.

A killing certainly brought him infamy, but it also seemed to bring him great benefits.

"Bodao, how is the battle situation in Zhu Yuanshan?"

Hao Zhao hurriedly got up and replied respectfully: "Shen Wolf Qiang and Bai Ma Qiang initially attacked extremely fiercely, but after losing their troops, they have temporarily ceased fighting. ”

"Very good!"

Cao Peng thought about it, turned his head and said to Zhu Dao: "Have a hard trip, go to Baimaqiang, and tell Teng Zijing."

Collect the troops, I am not to blame for the past.

If you don't accept it, after Lao Tzu enters the Huangzhong, Bai Maqiang will be removed from the list and not a single one will be left. ”

"Huh?"

Zhu Dao was stunned and looked at Cao Peng in amazement.

He and Baimaqiang are not strangers, before the Hexi Chamber of Commerce walked in Huangzhong, and Baimaqiang had some contacts.

It's just that this ultimatum is too blunt!

Teng Zijing is a hot-tempered person, and he can accept this kind of rhetoric.

"Don't worry, that guy is a smart guy and knows what to choose."

Since Cao Peng insisted, Zhu Dao naturally would not refuse, so he surrendered.

"Dou Mao, why are you making trouble?"

"This ...... It's not clear. ”

Xu Shu showed a look of shame and said softly: "Dou Mao's army was extremely sudden. But before that, he didn't show the slightest resentment, which caught the old man off guard. This Xu Shu's mistake, please punish the son. ”

"Eh, don't punish at every turn."

Cao Peng waved his hand and wandered around the room.

"Ma Rufeng, who?"

"This ......"

"Inquire me about these two things.

Especially Ma Rufeng! When I came, I carefully examined the man's file, but found that there was no record. Ma Rufeng...... Hmph, it's a fake name when I think about it. I know the ability of the tiger head, and I can make the tiger head scheming, but this person is quite scheming. This person can never be an unknown person. We had never heard of such a horse thief ravaging Hehuang before, and we didn't even know that the old Qiang king was burning, so why did they suddenly come out? ”

"Childe means ......"

"Check!"

Cao Peng stopped and said in a deep voice: "This person must have an inseparable connection with the Ma family, and I even suspect that Dou Mao's rebellion has a lot to do with this person." Find out the ins and outs of this horse Rufeng for me...... Get rid of him as soon as possible. As for Dou Mao's side, he ordered Wuwei to guard Su Ze too much, and Zhang Ye to guard Meng Jian too much, and ordered the two of them to gather troops and horses, and stationed troops in Zhangye County, waiting for my dispatch at any time.

Again, Captain Jia Xing, Captain Qiang of Guard, Captain Dou Hu of Guzang Commander, will immediately go to Di Dao to standby, and I have another important responsibility. ”

"Whoa!"

"Ordered Hanyang to guard Shi Tao, Beidi to guard Yang Fu, Zheng Qiang Zhonglang General, and Wuting Captain Xiahou Lan, each to recruit soldiers and horses, and listen to orders at any time. Then from the Hexi Army, the elite soldiers of the four prefectures were transferred to Longqi City secretly. ”

Du Shu on the side, record quickly.

After writing Cao Peng's orders one by one, Cao Peng smashed the seal.

"Yuan Zhi, the battle of Zhu Yuanshan, I will hand it over to you and Bodao.

I don't care what means you use, before the autumn, give me a firm bolt on Zhu Yuan Mountain, and don't let them advance half a step. ”

"Humble duty, obey!"

Xu Shu and Hao Zhao received their orders one after another.

At this moment, they no longer have all the worries they had before.

It seems that with the arrival of Cao Peng, all problems have been solved.

Cao Peng took a deep breath, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face, "Let's go, accompany me to visit Hutou's house." ”

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

Zhu Yushan Cao Jun suddenly became extremely tough.

Hao Zhao ordered that no prisoners be left, and that all the Qiang prisoners were beheaded at the foot of Zhu Yuanshan. In this way, the two qiang were furious, and at the same time felt a trace of inexplicable fear.

Cao Jun, it seems that he has come to the real thing!

Compared with the previous style of Cao Ji when he was in charge of government affairs, he left a line in everything, and now Cao Jun can be described as a big killing.

"This is by no means Cao Ji's style."

In the county yali of Longxian County, Ma Chao looked contemplative.

Under him, a young man sat upright, it was Hu Zun who saved Ma Chao from danger. Ma Dai sat on the top, his face also showing nervousness.

"I'm afraid, the chief general of Liangzhou has been replaced."

Hu Zun opened his mouth and said: "And with such a tough style, I suspect that it is very likely that the King of Cao Yan is here." ”

"Cao Peng?"

Ma Chao raised his head and looked at Hu Zun in amazement.

Don't look at Hu Zun as young, but he is very stable and smart.

On top of that, he had read military books, so his strategy was good. Analyzing things, the head is the way, showing an unusual ability. Ma Chao believes that Hu Zun will inevitably become the mastermind in time.

Therefore, on weekdays, Ma Chao is also deliberately cultivating Hu Zun.

Hu Zun nodded and said softly: "In the past, Cao Peng naturalized Qiang Di, and everyone only paid attention to it, and he left room for doing things. But no one found out how he disposed of those Qiang prisoners in the battle against Xiqiang.

Kill them all, not a single one is left!

It's just that because he is fair, everyone doesn't notice his toughness.

In the Wuzi Rebellion, this guy went on a killing spree. personally supervised and beheaded more than 2,000 people, which shows that he is ruthless......

And I think that in this situation, Cao Cao ignored the rebellion in the northwest, and instead started the war of annexing the state. Why? I think it must be that he thinks that the Northwest Rebellion is not a cause for concern.

Why did Cao Cao have this confidence?

There are only two reasons, either he is arrogant; Either he has sent a suitable person to take over Liangzhou.

And at this time, the most suitable person to take over Liangzhou is probably only Cao Peng. ”

"Cao Youxue!"

Ma Chao couldn't help gritting his teeth and smashed his fist on the case.

The hard mahogany long case was smashed by him and scattered all over the ground.

If you say who Ma Chao hates the most?

I'm afraid that apart from Cao Peng, there is no second candidate.

Ma Dai hesitated for a moment and said softly, "Big brother, Dou Mao has sent someone over again." ”

"What's the matter with him?"

"It's not about begging for food and grass...... But he came this time with another request. I ......"

Ma Dai's words were slightly hesitant and slurking.

Ma Chao frowned, and said in a deep voice: "What does he want?" ”

He ...... I want to marry my little sister as a concubine. ”

"What?"

Ma Chao was furious, "Dou Mao wants to die? ”

Ma Chao loves his sister Ma Yunlu very much. At the beginning, Cao Peng killed the Ma clan, but this Ma Yunlu escaped. Ma Yunlu was bumpy and displaced, and finally arrived in Wudu and found Ma Chao.

The haggard appearance at that time made the hard-hearted Ma Chao cry!

Now Dou Mao actually proposed to marry Ma Yunlu, and he was only a concubine, how could Ma Chao bear it?

In Ma Chao's heart, Ma Yunlu should marry a good man who loves her.

But that Dou Mao is lustful as life.

At the beginning, for the sake of his stepmother, he did not hesitate to kill the old king. After succeeding to the throne of the queen, he included his stepmother in the account, and even married his brother's wife together. Although this is normal in Qiangdi, Ma Chao can't accept it.

That guy is a rotten person!

"There is no way to do this."

Ma Chao didn't say a word and immediately refused.

Ma Dai smiled bitterly: "But Dou Mao said that if the eldest brother doesn't agree, he will withdraw his troops with Poqiang......"

"Bastard!"

Ma Chao was so angry that his face was flushed.

It is undeniable that this is of great significance to him now.

If Dou Mao does not retreat, he can contain most of the soldiers and horses in Liangzhou. This also greatly reduces Ma Chao's worries, and he can attack Guanzhong wholeheartedly. But if Dou Mao withdraws his troops, Ma Chao will have to face the main force of Cao's army when the time comes. He knew very well in his heart that although he was using all the strength of the military capital this time, it was not easy to confront the main force of the Cao army. Dou Mao's threat made him angry, but it also made him helpless.

"Zijing, what do you say?"

The 'Zijing' in Ma Chao's mouth is not Lu Su Lu Zijing.

The Zijing he said is Hu Zun.

A bitter smile appeared on Hu Zun's face...... This is Ma Chao's family matter, how can he participate as an outsider?

Ma Dai on the side also showed an unhappy look.

Big brother, this is our family matter!

I know you value this Hu Zun; I also know that he saved your life! But you can't ask him everything, listen to him. This is a lifelong event related to Xiaomei, how can you let an outsider point fingers? Could it be that so many of our own brothers are no match for an outsider?

It is normal for Ma Dai to have complaints in his heart.

What do you want him to say, he is also a core member of the Ma family, and he is still a member of the Ma clan, and he is more loyal to Ma Chao.

But now?

Ma Chao obeyed that Hu Zunyan and asked for advice on everything.

This also made Ma Dai's status gradually decrease. Well, he's your lifesaver, and he does have some skills, I don't have a problem. But it's a bit too much for you to let him meddle in your own family affairs now.

Ma Dai knew Ma Chao's temper very well, and he was angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it.

As for Hu Zun, who was driven to the shelves, in this case, it seems that he can't remain silent......

After pondering for a while, Hu Zun said softly: "Eldest Miss, how can you marry Dou Mao?" ”

"Not bad!"

"But Dou Mao is now a strong soldier and a strong horse, and his strength is quite strong, which is the general's arm.

If he withdraws his troops, the general's years of planning will also be ruined...... So, if you think about it, why not pretend to do it. If you break through Longxi, you will make the eldest lady marry. In this way, Dou Mao's attacks can be more ferocious and contain more troops. As long as the general takes Guanzhong, how can he be afraid of a Dou Mao? ”

"Hmmm......"

Ma Chao fell into deep thought.

After a while, he nodded lightly, "What Zijing said is reasonable, so follow what Zijing said." (To be continued)
