readx;

When the Jiangdong Tiger meets the tiger idiot, it will naturally not have any good results, and Sun Yi is not as good as Sun Jian. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoOriginally, Sun Yi, who was supposed to die in the hands of Bian Hong, was torn alive by Wei Yan and Xu Chu! Both commanders died, and the Jiangdong Army could only choose to retreat. At this time, the Cao army arrived, the Jiangdong army was defeated again, Han Dang packed up the remnants of the army and retreated to Changsha, personally went to Jianye with an ancient ingot knife, and reported the funeral to Sun Ce and Sun Quan!

Under the city of Wuling, the Jiangdong army retreated, and the Cao army came again. Thinking about what a hero the Jiangdong Tiger was back then, but now his head is hanging high, looking at the head of Sun Jian's father and son on the flagpole, Cao Ying was a little stunned in his heart. However, he quickly recovered, these princes are the root cause of the chaos in the world, one more death, the world will be a little more stable!

"Xianhe, didn't you say that Wuling was ready to surrender the city? How come I don't see the slightest sincerity in surrendering? Looking at the tall Wuling City, Cao Ying's face was indifferent, and he didn't seem to be moved by Wuling City.

"Prime Minister, sincerity is already hanging on the city, don't you see it?" Jian Yong smiled indifferently, but Cao Ying was a little surprised.

You must know that Liu Bei's subordinates are known for their fierce generals, but the ministers under his command are not well-known, so in Cao Ying's opinion, most of the scribes under Liu Bei have no talent. But after contacting Jian Yong, Cao Ying found that Liu Bei's subordinates were not useless, especially when he saw Jian Yong's eloquence!

"Well said!" Cao Ying understood what Jian Yong meant, and couldn't help but nodded. Liu Bei is dead, and there are only three major princes in the world. Wei Yan and Xu Chu would not take refuge with Liu Zhang, who killed Liu Bei. Now, Sun Jian's father and son died under Wuling City, and the hope of the two of them to join the Sun family has been cut off, they can only take refuge in Cao Ying, otherwise they can only wait for destruction!

"Prime Minister, if you agree to our conditions, I will immediately enter the city and let the two generals Wei Yan and Xu Chu surrender!" Although the conditions have been said many times, Cao Yong has not given a clear answer, and Jian Yong's heart is a little heavy, for fear that Cao Ying will not agree!

"Whew..."Cao Ying breathed a long sigh of relief and asked in a deep voice: "If I agree to avenge Liu Bei and give Liu Bei an identity, do you think Wei Yan and Xu Chu will be loyal to me?" ”

"Of course!" Jian Yong said: "We have only one wish now, which is to kill Liu Zhang to avenge the Lord Communion!" ”

"Good!" Cao Ying made up his mind and said, "I agreed!" You enter the city now, let Wei Yan and Xu Chu come to visit! ”

"Yes!" After Jian Yong bowed, he rode his horse to Wuling. The soldiers of Wuling City all knew him, and they would not stop him.

Wei Yan and Xu Chu also saw Cao Jun, and they were waiting for Jian Yong. Jian Yong told the process of meeting Cao Ying, and told the two that Cao Ying promised to avenge Liu Bei. Not only that, but also agreed to give Liu Bei the identity of a Han clan relative, and named Liu Bei's heir as a marquis, hereditary network replacement!

Liu Bei's heir has been killed by Liao Li, whether it is a marquis or a prince, it doesn't matter. When Jian Yong heard that Liu Bei didn't even have any bloodline left, he couldn't help but be furious, and he wanted to kill Liao Li to take revenge. He knew that if Liao Li was allowed to see Cao Ying, there would be no chance of revenge! It's a pity that when a few people came to the prison, Liao Li had already left!

Liao Li is not stupid, he has been operating under Liu Bei for several years, how can he not have half of his cronies? Just when Xu Chu was about to execute him, his people were already in prison preparing to save him! If Xu Chu killed him at that time, it would have been a hundred, but Xu Chu didn't kill him, so he gave him a chance to escape!

Taking advantage of the battle between Wei Yan, Xu Chu and Sun, Liao Li fled from the city in the chaos. When Jian Yong comes to look for it, how can he still find it? failed to kill Liao Li, Jian Yong and the others could only sigh and go to see Cao Ying! With apprehension, Wei Yan and the four of them left Wuling City. But they didn't expect that Cao Ying had been waiting outside the city for a long time, and he was still waiting in line outside the camp.

"See Cao Gong!" Seeing Cao Ying, Wei Yan and the four of them half-knelt on the ground and made a big salute!

"Hurry up, please! Wen Chang's majestic style in the past made the prime minister admire, and now he said goodbye, which is really an honor for the prime minister! Cao Ying hugged Wei Yan with a happy face. When he was under the Tiger Prison, Wei Yan and Huaxiong's heroic posture at war has always made Cao Ying fall in love. Now that Wei Yan has come to vote, how can Cao Ying not be excited!

"In the past, I was offended, and I ask Cao Gong to forgive me!" Wei Yan sighed: "I have no other hope, I just want to avenge my eldest brother, as long as Cao Gong can fulfill this wish for me, I will be loyal to Cao Gong and swear to the death!" ”

"Wen Chang is quick to talk, and his appearance is admirable!" Cao Ying said with a smile: "The desire of the true phase is to dominate the world. Whoever blocks the true appearance is the enemy of the true appearance, but Liu Zhang is the most powerful of the enemies of the true appearance! However, now with the help of Wenchang and Zhongkang, there is a better chance of winning! ”

"Wei Yan greets the lord!" Listening to Cao Ying's words, Wei Yan knelt on the ground and made another big salute. Then, Xu Chu, Sun Qian, and Jian Yong also knelt on the ground!

"Everyone, please get up!" Cao Ying was overjoyed in his heart and hurriedly leaned over to help him. In Liu Zhang's battles with the princes, he took advantage of a lot. Now that Liu Bei is dead, he has taken a bigger advantage.

You must know that after Yan Liang and Wen Chou surrendered, Cao Ying once asked them to compete with Hua Xiong. Although everyone didn't use the killing move, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Yan Liang and Wen Chou's martial arts were on the same level as Hua Xiong! In other words, Wei Yan's martial arts are still above Yan Liang and Wen Chou. Coupled with a Xu Chu whose strength is unknown, Cao Ying has made a lot of money!

"Prime Minister Xie!" Wei Yan stood up, ordered the junior colonel to bring a tray and said: "Today, in order to show our sincerity, we have prepared all the tiger talisman seals, and please check the school!" ”

"Why does Wen Chang have to be like this!" Cao Ying smiled: "If there is no army, how can you avenge Xuande in the future?" From now on, the army of Wuling will be under your command! ”

"This..."Wei Yan said: "Prime Minister, he is just a general, how can he have so many troops, please Prime Minister..."

"What a general!" Cao Ying said: "Don't be suspicious of employing people, don't use suspicious people!" From now on, you are the general under the command of the prime minister, and there is no such thing as a general! If anyone says that you used to work for Xuande, you should tell the true picture! ”

"Thank you Prime Minister for your kindness!" Wei Yan picked up the tiger talisman seal ribbon and saluted Cao Ying again.

Cao Ying nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Changwen, I am not very familiar with these people under Xuande, please introduce them to me, how about it?" ”

"Dare to disobey?" Wei Yan pulled Xu Chu and said with a smile: "Xu Chu Xu Zhongkang is my third brother, and his martial arts are still above me, but the art of war is lacking, he can be a guard general, if the prime minister..."

"Needless to say!" Cao Ying pointed at Xu Chu and said: "From now on, you will be the commander of my personal guards, and you will be in charge of the 20,000 personal guards under my command!" ”

"This..."Xu Chu hesitated for a moment and said: "Prime Minister, the commander of the personal guard cannot be a person who is not a cronie or confidant, I..."

"What, you defected to me, not ready to be my cronies and confidants?" Cao Ying's face sank, and he looked very unconcerned.

"Thank you, Prime Minister!" Xu Chu was still a little embarrassed, but Wei Yan kicked him, he quickly knelt down to receive the order, and Cao Ying was very happy to help Xu Chu up!

"Zhongkang! In the future, the safety of the original image will be handed over to you! Cao Ying patted Xu Chu's thick shoulder with great satisfaction, although Xu Chu was not wearing armor, but the strong muscles on his body shook Cao Chu's hand a little painful!

"Don't worry, as long as the prime minister avenges my eldest brother, I will protect the prime minister with my surname! Whoever wants to hurt half of the prime minister's hair has to step over my corpse! Xu Chu was very moved by Cao Ying's trust, and he knelt on the ground and patted his chest to reassure.

"True loyalty!" Helping Xu Chu up, Cao Ying was full of smiles. In fact, he didn't know why, he always had an inexplicable sense of trust in Xu Chu in his heart, and he felt that he could entrust his surname to Xu Chu. After Xu Chu stood up, he involuntarily walked behind Cao Ying and did what a guard should do! made Cao Ying feel that Xu Chu should stand behind him to protect him.

After Cao Ying and Xu Chu finished greeting, Wei Yan immediately pulled Sun Qian over and said with a smile: "Prime Minister, this is my eldest brother's most trusted advisor Sun Qian and Sun Gongyou. In the past, he was recommended by Mr. Zheng Xuan and Mr. Zheng Kangcheng, and he was a disciple of Mr. Kangcheng! He handles everything, and even my eldest brother admires it! ”

"Oops, it turned out to be a disciple of Mr. Kang Cheng, and he was disrespectful!" When Cao Ying heard this, he hurriedly bowed and saluted, not daring to slack off, even if Sun Qian was not famous.

You must know that Zheng Xuan was a famous Confucian in the late Han Dynasty, and he devoted his life to sorting out and annotating Confucian classics, so that scripture entered the "era of small unification". The person who can get in touch with him is by no means ordinary. There is one person under Cao Ying's command who is also Zheng Xuan's high foot and has made a lot of contributions to Cao Ying. It's just that Zheng Xuan's disciples are all good at civil affairs, so it's not surprising that Sun Gan's reputation is not obvious!

"Why does Cao Gong need to be like this!" Sun Qian hurriedly returned the salute, he shook his head and sighed: "I will only do some miscellaneous things in the future, and the literature cannot determine the country, and the military cannot be anbang." After more than ten years of inaction under the command of Duke Xuande, how dare he be a great gift to Duke Cao? ”

"What Gongyou said is wrong!" Cao Ying smiled and said, "How can Mr. Kang Cheng and Xuande's vision be wrong? In the past, it was said that your reputation was not obvious, but there was no place to show it, and you will definitely be famous in the world in the future! Do you know that Mr. Kang Cheng's other high-level Guoyuan Guozi Ni is in charge of Tuntian affairs for me, and I want to ask Gongyou to cooperate with them, but I don't know what to do? ”

"Brother Zini?" Sun Qian bowed and said, "Duke Cao has a life, how dare I disobey?" Thank you Gong Cao! ”

"No need to be polite!" Helping Sun Qian up, Cao Ying's heart was about to burst into laughter. He really didn't expect that little Liu Bei would have such a family background, not counting the two fierce generals, but also a political talent and a debater. Cao Ying sighed secretly in his heart: "Liu Xuande is so lucky, but it's a pity that his ability is too poor, and the sky is not a holiday!" ”

"Prime Minister, please enter the city!" After introducing everyone, Wei Yanyi stretched out his hand and said: "I am already in the City Lord's Mansion, and I have prepared a banquet for the prime minister, please move the prime minister!" ”

"Good!" Cao Ying pulled Sun Qian with his left hand, Wei Yan with his right hand, followed by Xu Chu and Jian Yong, and strode towards Wuling City...
