The next day, Cao Zhang rested in the camp, and was ordered to go to Linfen to investigate, while Chen Zhi was busy assisting the Wei family's people to camp and guard the granary. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Cao Zhang invited Wei Zhen in with the guards, in fact, he was also very curious about Wei Zhen, such as how he could become the husband of the head of the Huo family.

After Wei Zhen sat down, Cao Zhangxiao asked, "What is the important matter of Gong Zhenke?" ”

Wei Zhen replied: "Zhen has sent a message back to Xiangling, asking the tomb keeper to send 2,000 elite soldiers to help the adults sweep away the thieves in Pingyang. ”

Cao Zhang smiled when he heard this: "Gongzhen has a heart!" Then he asked strangely: "The Huo family and the tomb keeper seem to be very familiar, Gong Zhen is a member of the Huo family, but it is really surprising that the tomb keeper can send troops to help." ”

Cao Zhang now considers himself the master of Wei Zhen, so many words can be asked directly, Wei Zhen replied: "Don't dare to hide it from your lord, Zhen was the three leaders of the tomb keeper before entering the Huo family, and the Huo family and the tomb keeper were also promoted by Zhen and Jing Jing, and these two thousand people were originally my sons." ”

Cao Zhang was surprised when he heard this, and said, "It turns out that Gongzhen is the tomb keeper? But isn't the tomb keeper the descendant who guards the tomb of Xianggong of Jin? Gong Zhen is a member of the Wei family, how can he enter the tomb keeper? can also be a trifecta.

Wei Zhen replied: "Lord Hui, the Sili area was all Jin land back then, as long as it was a person who grew up in Jin, you can join the tomb keeper, but you have to swear in front of the Xianggong Mausoleum, and you can only join the Xianggong spiritual position for life, the Jin State dominates the party in the Spring and Autumn Period, and the Xianggong Mausoleum naturally has a lot of burial things, I don't know how many bandits, Haoqiang peeps, the tomb keeper not only has to fight with foreign people, but also fights with all the people who peep into the Xianggong Mausoleum, there are countless battles, so the tomb keeper must continue to absorb the people of Jin, in order to be able to compete with it, After returning from Xingyang Bianshui, Zizhen was deeply ashamed to pretend to be dead, so he joined the tomb keepers, sharpened his mind with frequent battles, and accumulated merits to become the three leaders. ”

Cao Zhang praised when he heard this: "Shame and courage, the style of a gentleman!" So after Gong Zhen became the leader, he guarded as the leader of his own Wei family and the tomb keeper, and the Huo family and the tomb keeper joined forces to fight against foreign clans. ”

Wei Zhen said: "It turns out that the Wei family, the Huo family, and the tomb keepers are fighting their own battles, but the Wei and Huo families are unwilling to give in to the foreign clans, and the tomb keepers are to keep the Xianggong Mausoleum. ”

Cao Zhang added with a smile: "Then Gong Zhen became the Huo family's Chenglong fast son-in-law?" ”

Wei Zhen said embarrassedly when he heard this: "That's because two years ago, the Huo family's descendants were besieged and died in World War I, and only Miss Huo was left in the family. ”

Cao Zhang nodded and said, "It's so complicated." ”

Local battles are sometimes more dangerous and complicated than the battles in the court, but Cao Zhangsheng was born in the Cao family, and he was born in a high position with Cao Cao's meteoric tengda, and he has not been in contact with local battles.

Wei Zhen continued: "Zhen has one more thing to ask for this time. ”

Cao Zhang asked, "What's the matter?" Gong Zhen, please say. ”

Wei Zhen said: "Begging the general not to shoot General Qiu Zhonglang and Captain Jin to send the tomb of Xianggong of Jin." ”

Faqiu Zhonglang General and Touching Jin Lieutenant are Cao Cao's initiatives, specializing in excavating ancient tombs, taking away funeral property to subsidize military salaries, opening a precedent for tomb robbery organization, Chen Lin wrote for Yuan Shao "Ask Cao Xuanwen" has a sentence "and specially set Faqiu Zhonglang General, touch Jin Lieutenant, the past is abrupt, no remains are not exposed", use this to criticize Cao Cao.

Therefore, Wei Zhen's worries are justified, and now that Captain Touching Jin and Faqiu Zhonglang are still active, it is Wei Zhen who has this request.

Cao Zhang replied: "The tomb keeper has been guarding the tomb of Xianggong of Jin for 800 years, touching the heavens and the earth, how can our army be so unreasonable, besides, Captain Jin and Faqiu Zhonglang will open the ownerless and lonely tombs, if there are still people guarding filial piety, they will not be excavated!" I will tell my father the truth about this, and my father will inevitably restrain General Qiu Zhonglang and Captain Touching Jin under his command. ”

Wei Zhen replied: "Thank you so much, Third Prince! Then he said: "Now that the clumsy Jing is about to give birth, so the affairs of the Huo family are all represented by Zhen, why should the third prince use my Huo family's place, just ask." ”

Cao Zhang nodded when he heard this, and said: "This is very good, Gongzhen might as well rest in my camp now, so that when there is something, he can come to discuss in time." ”

Wei Zhen agreed and retired.

Three days later, Wei Zhen's 2,000 tomb guards came to Cao Ying, and to Cao Zhang's surprise, this group of tomb guards were all cavalry, and they were very well-equipped, and they actually brought the famous eight-sided Han sword of the Han Dynasty, which was different from the long sword that Cao Pi matched.

Cao Pi's long sword is made of fine iron and a variety of metal mixtures, out of everyone's hands, even the quenched water is specially taken from Yizhou Shu water quenched, regardless of the material and cost and technology are higher than the eight-sided Han sword, Cao Pi named the long sword in his hand "Jian'an", because this sword was built in the Jian'an period.

Cao Pi's sword, straight and upright, the sword body is straight, the blade is stretched out by two arcs, the sheath is unpretentious, and the sheath is sharp, which fully embodies the style of Confucianism in the Han Dynasty that is gentle and humble and makes the outer circle and the inner square, the surface is warm and moist like jade, and the chest contains armor, which is enough to govern the country and level the world.

The sword body of the eight-sided Han sword worn by the tomb keeper has subtle edges and corners, in a ladder down, there are eight sides, it seems that the sword body is square rather than arc, the sword body is three fingers wide, wider than Cao Pi's long sword, and thicker, more suitable for rushing to kill on horses, wide and a certain thickness of the sword body can ensure that the sword will not be broken when rushing to kill. The blade and blade were cold and sharp, and they were about six feet long.

This eight-sided Han sword legend is Wei Qing and Huo Quai's command of the elite cavalry with weapons, it takes a lot of metal and exquisite technology to create, Cao Jun tiger and leopard riding does not have this kind of weapon, one is the eight-sided Han sword's sword body polishing time-consuming, the second is expensive, compared to the horse chopping knife and halberd, the eight-sided Han sword out of fine iron but also tin, copper and other metals are proportionally configured to build, all materials are not only rare, but also are high-quality materials, equipment tiger and leopard riding is really unaffordable.

Compared with Cao Pi's "Jian'an", the eight-sided Han sword represents the iron bones of the Han Dynasty soldiers.

This group of tomb guards also wore Mingguang armor, and the outfits of these two thousand cavalry were better than Cao Zhang's tun cavalry, Yue cavalry, and Hu cavalry three battalions, which were on par with Cao Jun's elite tiger and leopard cavalry.

Seeing this group of tomb keepers, Cao Zhang, knew why no one dared to open the mausoleum of Xianggong of Jin for 800 years.

One day after the two thousand tomb guards were settled, Man Chong returned to the barracks to ask for a meeting with Cao Zhang, ready to tell Cao Zhang about the situation in Linfen.

Cao Zhang saw that Manzhong was coming, and immediately summoned the generals, Wei Ting and Wei Zhen were also among them, and discussed the plan to attack Linfen together.

After everyone sat down, Cao Zhang said to Man Chong: "Boning, according to your investigation, how should we attack Linfen?" ”

Full pet replied: "Lord Hui, this Linfen is located on the bank of the Fenshui River, from the position of our army to Linfen is better separated by Fenshui, if we cross the river, we will inevitably be intercepted by the Linfen Li cavalry, they have the support of the Southern Huns, the cavalry must not be weak, although we also have cavalry, but the army crosses the river flawed everywhere, it is really difficult to protect the comprehensive, so the lower officials think that they should camp across the river, build pontoon bridges, build flying ladders, and storm the city, so that the enemy cavalry can not come to the pontoon bridge to snipe our army, our army has the advantage of numbers, It shouldn't be a problem to lay down Linfen. ”

Chen Zhi on the side said: "But our infantry does not have fish scale armor like Yuan Jun, if the enemy army has boiling oil, wood, rolling stones, bows and arrows to guard the city wall, our army will inevitably suffer heavy losses." ”

Man Chong said: "You can capture the strong men of the villages in the east of Fenshui, let them take the lead in attacking the city, consume the enemy's wood, stone, bows and arrows, and then our army will attack again, and it will naturally be like a bamboo." ”

Cao Zhang glanced at Manzhong when he heard this, and nodded secretly, this cool official does seem to have a few brushes, and he is as ruthless as himself, when he was in Lin Xi in order to raise military rations and win the trust of Yuan Shao, he also killed indiscriminately in the county, this Manzhong now wants the local people to attack the city, and its ruthlessness Chengdu is on par with himself.

In order to win, he can't be a woman's kindness, Cao Zhang found that Manzhong was very good for his own taste.

When Man Chong said this, the expressions of the generals present were different, and Xiahou Heng, the son of Xiahou Yuan, looked normal, which showed that Cao Zhang, who had experienced Cao Zhang's battle in Lin Xi, had accepted Cao Zhang's theory of making a fortune, so he was not surprised at all when he heard Man Chong's words.

Chen Zhi has been following Cao Zhang for a long time, and he understands the master's temperament, and he has been assimilated, so naturally there is no heterogeneity.

Zhang Yan and Zhao Yun have both passed the age of not being confused, and they have been in war for a long time, and they are used to seeing life and death, so they know that this is to reduce casualties, so they are also expressionless.

Leaving Xiahou Nan, the son of Xiahou Zhan, Gongsun Zhan's son Gongsun Xu and Wei Ting, Wei Zhen's expression is worth playing, Xiahou Mao is the son of a fierce general, although there is an unbearable look in his eyes, but his face is calm as usual, obviously a general who takes obedience to orders as his duty.

Gongsun Xu's face was not only unbearable, but with a cruel smile, he suffered a big change, only left alone, and his family was killed by his father Gongsun Chan himself, it is not strange that his psychology is different from ordinary people.

Wei Ting and Wei Zhen, the two brothers, looked worried, not unbearable, which made Cao Zhang a little confused, what were they worried about?

So Cao Zhang asked Wei Zhen, "What does Gong Zhen think about this?" (To be continued.) (To be continued.) )
