I'd like to say I'm sorry to everyone first.

Due to participating in the author's salon party, Lao Xin has been running between Chengdu-Nanning-Beihai since the 11th.

Yesterday I went to Nanning, then immediately to Beihai, and then returned to Nanning from Beihai at noon today. Will return to Chengdu tomorrow...... To tell the truth, the past two days have been tiring and tiring, and the toss is weak. As you know, the old and new documents are broken, so I don't have any manuscripts in my hand. I had to upload the code in the hotel.

The update is a bit unhelpful.,But when I return to Chengdu.,I'll make it up next week.,Please forgive me.。

In addition, thanks to the book friend 123a456, he became the first leader of "Cao Thief".

Old and new Monday, will definitely add more thanks.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

In later generations, there is a very interesting data in the Legend of the Three Kingdoms, called loyalty!

Cao Peng didn't have the luxury of getting Wei Yan's loyalty, and with his current situation, he didn't have the capital to be loyal.

But if you don't have loyalty, you can add favor......

The idea of offering a knife originated from Deng Ji. The contact with Wei Yan is not too long, but Deng Ji can roughly figure out a little bit of Wei Yan's surname. In the bones of this person, he is very proud, but he is not unkind. As long as it is a person, there are seven emotions and six desires, there will be preferences and hatreds. Deng Ji felt that in order to survive this catastrophe safely, it was undoubtedly the most important thing to have a good relationship with Wei Yan.

So, he came up with a plan to sacrifice a knife!

Don't look at Wei Yan as a hundred-person general, he actually doesn't have any savings.

A good knife on the market can open your mouth for at least a few thousand, or even tens of thousands...... Don't bargain, it's not too high. The good knife mentioned here is actually an ordinary head knife. For example, the dragon bird in Cao Peng's hand, put it on the market, there are no hundreds of thousands of dollars, don't even think about it. As for the real sword, it has no price. Millions, or even tens of millions, may not be available.

The big ring knife in Wei Yan's hand belongs to that kind of standard ring knife, which is just a few thousand dollars.

Just like Cao Peng said, heroes are equipped with treasure knives. If he can have a good knife, Wei Yan's combat effectiveness can be increased by at least a few percent.

As for Cao Peng, he can't make a dragon sparrow.

Instead of leaving the knife by his side and wasting it, it is better to give it to Wei Yan to win his favor.

In the past, Deng Ji would never and disdained to do such a thing. But now, he seems to have opened his mind, and began to ponder some inhumane little gestures. But it is often this kind of small action that can come in handy when it is critical......

Cao Peng is very pleased with this change in Deng Ji!

――――――――――――――――――――

The convoy is not going fast, and it can even be described as a 'snail'.

It was supposed to be a very ordinary mission. But with Cao Ying's troops, this escort has become a little unusual.

Wei Yan kept communicating with Deng Ji along the way.

The two of them walked side by side, while Cao Peng and Wang Mai dragged behind the two.

"Brother Tiger Head, you have to be careful."

"Be careful of what?"

"Stare at Ma Yu, that guy is too quiet!"

"I know."

For Cao Peng's advice, Wang Mai would not ask the reason.

In his opinion, since Ah Fu said this, there must be a reason for him. Ah Fu has good insight and pays a lot of attention, and some things are said that he may not be able to understand. If it is incomprehensible, then why bother to ask? Just do what Ah Fu says......

On the first day of the first lunar month, he fought with Wei Yan outside Yiyangtun, although he was slightly injured, but in fact Wei Yan had no malicious intentions, so the injury was not serious. Wang Mai's foundation was originally good, and he later practiced with Cao Peng for more than 20 days of Baji, so it was not difficult to recover.

It's only been two days, and it's no big deal.

"Ah Fu, who do you say can win this time?"

"Huh?"

"It's Cao Ying and General Xiao Zhang......"

"I estimate that Cao Gong will suffer this time!"

"Why? I heard that Cao Ying is very capable of fighting, and he has a lot of capable people under him, can General Zhang beat him? ”

"Sometimes, if it goes too well, you get carried away.

This man, once he gets carried away, he will be unlucky...... Cao Gong's soldiers and horses advanced too smoothly, and they attacked Nanyang County almost without blood. ”

Cao Peng pretended to teach Wang Mai very forcefully.

Of course, it was impossible for him to say that he knew that Cao Ying would definitely lose, and he lost badly. So I can only use this way to communicate with Wang Mai. Wang Mai is a real person, after listening to Cao Peng's words, he did not refute it, but thought about it very seriously and nodded in agreement.

――――――――――――――――――――――――

It was getting late, and the convoy continued on its way.

Just as Wei Yan and the others were escorting the vehicle, just crossing the river from a ferry and preparing to continue their journey, a fast horse galloped from a distance.

"Where will Wei Tun be? Where will Wei Tun be? ”

Wei Yan jumped out of the horse and shouted: "Stop coming, I'm Wei Yan." ”

The man on the horse immediately grabbed the reins, turned over and dismounted, and knelt on one knee in front of Wei Yan's horse, "Humble from the Nine Girls City, on the order of the Yellow Soldier Cao Is, please ask Wei Tun General to suspend the march, camp on the spot, and wait for the order of the Yellow Soldier Cao Shi." I came all the way, and I finally caught up. ”

As he spoke, he held an arrow in both hands.

Wei Yan dismounted, stretched out his hand to take the arrow, and after a glance, he confirmed that the arrow was indeed from the camp of the Nine Women's City.

"Why did you stop moving forward?"

"This ......"

The messenger hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "Don't hide it from General Wei Tun, I just received a report from the fine at noon, and Zhang Xiu had already surrendered to Cao Ying yesterday." ”

"What?"

Wei Yan was taken aback, and his color changed.

"Cao Ying's troops advanced quickly, and after breaking through Ye County on the first day of the first month, his counselor Cao Hong took Duyang in the second day. Pheasant County and Bowang County surrendered on the same day, and Zhang Xiu sent a messenger to Bowang yesterday to ask for surrender. Cao Ying is said to have agreed to his request to surrender.

After Huang Bing Cao Shi got the news, he immediately sent his subordinates to chase after the general...... Bing Cao Shi said that Zhang and Cao clashed, and there were many variables. If Zhang Xiu surrenders, the 5,000 stone grain and grass will not have to be sent to Wancheng. However, the current situation is still unclear, so I have to ask Wei Tun to be stationed on the spot...... His Majesty has finished spreading the news, and he needs to return to the Nine Maidens City immediately to report. I wonder if Wei Tun will have other orders? ”

"Oh, I don't have anything to do here for the time being, please return to General Huang, and just say that Wei Yan obeys the order!"

"Whoa!"

The messenger got up and bowed his hand, then turned on his horse and whipped away.

Wei Yan had a headache......

"Deng Jiecong, just received the military order, General Huang ordered you and me to camp on the spot and wait for the order."

Not many people paid attention to Wei Yan's conversation with the messenger just now. Deng Ji was busy adjusting the car and arranging things, and he didn't pay attention.

At first glance, when they heard that Huang Jian asked them to camp on the spot, whether it was Deng Ji or Cao Peng, they couldn't help but chuckle in their hearts.

This is good, what kind of camp!

"I just got the news that Zhang Boluan has surrendered!"

"Ahh

Deng Ji was taken aback, but Cao Peng was a little confused.

"Deng Jiecong, who is Zhang Boluan?"

Deng Ji glared at Cao Peng and said softly: "Zhang Boluan is General Xiao Zhang, Wancheng Zhang Xiu." ”

Cao Peng felt Wang Mai's puzzled gaze, as if he was asking him: Didn't you just say that Cao Ying would be defeated, why did Zhang Xiu surrender?

This kind of thing is really hard to explain.

So Cao Peng could only temporarily endure the slap in the face of the yellow shot.

Deng Ji asked: "Since General Xiao Zhang surrendered, then we should return to the Nine Girls City, why do we have to camp on the spot?" ”

Wei Yan rubbed the green short beard on his chin and said with a wry smile: "How do I know General Huang's intentions?" However, I estimate that Zhang Boluan's surrender has not yet been confirmed. So General Huang asked us to stay here for the time being, waiting for confirmation from Wancheng. As soon as Zhang Boluan really descends, we will return immediately. This place is less than a day's journey from Nieyang County; If it is false, continue to escort it. ”

That sounds like that's the only way to explain it!

Deng Ji couldn't see the problem in this, so he nodded and said, "Since that's the case, then I'll arrange camping immediately." ”

"There's the Lau Deng Festival."

Wei Yan said and motioned for Cao Peng to follow.

After taking the benefits of others, it is natural to take more care.

At this point, Wei Yan is not a person who does not know what to do......

Cao Peng glanced at Wang Mai, who nodded, signaling that he would pay attention.

Then, Cao Peng followed Wei Yan and rode slowly. Along the way, Wei Yan was silent, and a pair of long eyebrows were tightly locked, as if he was thinking about it.

"Tun General!"

I didn't go far when I saw Wei Ping coming to him with six horsemen.

Wei Ping asked, "Why is it good to stop moving forward suddenly?" ”

"General Huang has an order, let us camp on the spot and wait for the new order...... Wen Bo, have you ever asked, what kind of place is this? ”

Wenbo is Wei Ping's character.

He bowed down on his horse and replied: "Huitun General, this place is called Sunset Ju, which is the junction of Jianyang County and Wancheng. Let's go back, it is Jianyang County; And now, we are in the territory of Wancheng. Heading further north, about tomorrow evening, you will arrive at Wancheng. ”

"It's a fork."

"Shall we retreat, then, or shall we stay there?"

The sunset is a very interesting place.

Thorn water connects Yushui, which is the boundary between Wancheng and Jianyang County. At the same time, this sunset gathering is the boundary between Wancheng and Nieyang County. About ten miles south along the thorny water, it is under the rule of Nieyang County. Overall, this sunset gathering is a place where three things don't matter.

Wei Yan thought for a moment and replied, "Let's camp here." If you go back again, the trouble is tight. Even if General Huang asks us to return to Nine Girls City, we can also return via Niyang. Anyway, it's not too much, so you don't have to bother anymore...... The brothers had been walking all day, and it was hard enough. Rest early and wait for General Huang's orders...... Wenbo, but you have to work hard again. ”

"Please command!"

"With the sunset gathering as the center, advance thirty miles to the north, and investigate whether there is any enemy.

As soon as he got the news, Zhang Xiu surrendered...... I'm worried that if it's true, there will definitely be Cao Jun in the vicinity, so you have to be more careful. ”

"The last general understands!"

Wei Ping intervened and took the six horsemen away.

Wei Yan scratched his head in distress, turned around and said, "Let's go, let's go back." Set up the camp first, and then wait for news. ”

Cao Peng did not express an opinion and was not qualified to do so.

As Wei Yan returned straight to the ferry, he saw that the carriages and horses had been replaced into a circle, and a simple camp had taken on a rudimentary shape.

Just as they were about to set up camp, a large flag planted on the carriage suddenly collapsed, causing a series of chaos among the people. Tang Ji hurriedly ran over and helped the Daxu flag up again. Wei Yan's face became very ugly.

According to the saying of this era, the banner is broken and the Daxu is collapsing, which is a bad omen.

Cao Peng stretched out his hand at this time and said to himself: "The wind is blowing!" ”
