Liu Xin and Yuan Shao followed Cao Cao back to the entrance of Taoyuan, but before they reached the door, they heard moans one after another. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Liu Xin knew that Jiang Wei and Wang Shuang must have made a move in advance to solve those subordinates sent by Yuan Shu.

Sure enough, Liu Xin and the three of them who came to the gate of Taoyuan looked at the people who fell to the ground at the door, while Jiang Wei and Wang Shuang were holding a long stick and guarding the side with a smile.

With Jiang Wei and Wang Shuang, they simply "surrounded" these thirty or so people.

And Huang Quan and Zhong Hui, who were standing in the back, were holding short swords, protecting Su Jia and Zhang Song, but they were basically watching the show.

Su Jia saw Liu Xin and the others, so he stepped forward and said, "My lord, Boyo and Ziquan have already taken down those bandits, may I ask the northern lieutenant how we should deal with them." ”

Although he knew that this group of so-called bandits was actually Yuan Shao's subordinates sent to find trouble, this group of people was very tight-mouthed and insisted that they were bandits, so they could only let Cao Cao, the captain of northern Luoyang, deal with it.

Cao Cao looked at the group of people on the ground, frowned and said, "This group of guys seems to have the benefit of Yuan Shu, and they want to take all the blame off, big brother, what do you think I should do?" ”

Liu Xin shook his head with a smile and said: "Third brother, I'm just a flat-headed ordinary person with no official position now, not in his position, not in his politics, how can I interfere in your case?" Therefore, third brother, you should still do things according to your principles, as long as you remember to handle it impartially, don't cause any wrongful convictions, and don't let go of the culprit. ”

Although Liu Xin said that he would let Cao Cao deal with it, in fact, Liu Xin had already pointed out a way for Cao Cao, that is, to deal with these so-called "bandits" in accordance with the law.

These "bandits" were enough to be sentenced to death for the crime of attacking the northern lieutenant of Luoyang.

As far as Yuan Shu's methods are concerned, it is already very good to be able to hold these subordinates accountable, but it is probably not so realistic to want them to die for Yuan Shu.

Cao Cao smiled and nodded, he had already understood Liu Xin's intentions.

Cao Cao coughed, attracting everyone's attention, and then said: "Oh, you people are so bold that you dare to attack me, the captain of northern Luoyang, you are really bold, then I also respect you as a man, and let you go on the road together tomorrow, I hope that you will be a good man in eighteen years." ”

After Cao Cao finished speaking, he ordered his subordinates to go back to Luoyang to summon the officials and come to detain this group of "bandits".

And Yuan Shu's group of subordinates were stunned and looked at Cao Cao with some horror, but they didn't expect this Cao Cao to play cards according to the routine.

Originally, Yuan Shu promised them that as long as they could injure any of Liu Xin's three people, they would have a lot of rewards, and even if they failed and were caught, they would only be imprisoned for a period of time, and Yuan Shu would find an opportunity to rescue them in advance.

However, now Cao Cao has made it clear that he wants to put them to death, and it is the kind that is not reasonable at all.

This made Yuan Shu's subordinates panic, they usually follow Yuan Shu to eat and have fun, and if something happens, Yuan Shu will deal with it, and the small life is not bad, so they didn't think too much about the trouble of Liu Xin and the others today.

After all, Yuan Shu sent someone to inquire about the situation first, and there were only four subordinates in Taoyuan, and the combat effectiveness could be ignored; And Liu Xin's subordinates are only one martial artist, and the others are literati, and their combat effectiveness seems to be average.

Therefore, Yuan Shu's subordinates relied on the strength of the crowd, so they came to the door arrogantly, but they were beaten by Jiang Wei and Wang Shuang, and the two of them couldn't even run, and now they are all lying on the ground.

However, they thought they had a lot of backbone, and under the coercion and temptation of Jiang Wei and others, they insisted on calling themselves bandits and never revealing Yuan Shu's identity.

It's a pity that their backbone comes from Yuan Shu's guarantee, as the saying goes, county officials are not as good as current management, although Yuan Shu's reputation and status in Luoyang are so much higher than Cao Cao's.

However, it was almost impossible for Yuan Shu to get them all out of the dungeon.

And this Cao Cao is also well-known in Luoyang for doing what he says, if he says that he will be executed tomorrow, he will never delay it until the day after tomorrow.

As a result, Yuan Shu's subordinates who were lying on the ground began to look at each other, thinking about what to do now.

Cao Cao saw that a few people wanted to speak and stopped, so he knew that their hearts had been shaken, so he continued: "But you should all know that the captain of Benbei has always been fair and selfless, and there are rewards and punishments, as long as you can confess the thief's head, it is to redeem the merits, and I will be able to save you from death!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the "bandits" who wanted to stop talking lit up, and one of them immediately said: "Our leader is... ”

Before the man could finish speaking, a strong man lying next to him opened his mouth and scolded: "Shut up for me!" ”

The "bandit" who wanted to make meritorious service immediately closed his mouth and looked at the strong man with panicked eyes.

Cao Cao understood that this strong man should have a certain status under Yuan Shu.

Cao Cao looked at the strong man with a smile and asked with interest, "It seems that you are the leader of this group of bandits?" ”

The strong man stared at Cao Cao viciously, opened his mouth and laughed: "Of course, Grandpa Zhang, I am planted in your hands today, Cao Ah will kill if you want to kill him, don't be so grinding and chirping like a girl." ”

Cao Cao's face sank, Ah Pu is his nickname, and it is also his taboo, in addition to his elders can call this name, even if the good brothers of the same generation call this nickname, it will also attract Cao Cao's dissatisfaction, let alone outsiders.

Cao Cao grimaced, picked up a stick from the ground, and hit the strong man in the mouth.

As soon as the strong man wanted to dodge, Jiang Wei next to him took the lead and poked a stick at the strong man's temple, and the strong man only felt weak and couldn't move.

Cao Cao shot out angrily, naturally with a lot of force, this stick went down, the strong man mixed with blood, spit out more than ten teeth, and the mouth couldn't stop bleeding, and he couldn't speak.

After dealing with this strong man, Cao Cao threw away the stick in his hand at will, and then said with a smile: "Since your thief has confessed, are you still willing to die with him, today this official will finally give you another chance, as long as you say who is the real mastermind behind the scenes, then you can avoid death." ”

Cao Cao thought that someone would confess honestly this time, but it backfired, and a young man dressed as a literati threatened: "Before you speak, think about your family." ”
