Zhuge Liang's meaning was obvious, but Cai Zhong and Cai He were a little hesitant. Although Sima Yi's personality is not good, Huang Zhu and Kuai Yue are both Jingzhou families, and they don't want to betray them.www.biquge.info Seeing the two hesitating, Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Two generals, I know what you are worried about, but there is one thing you don't know. King Qin's policy seemed a little mean, but in fact it did not deprive him of much. You won't tell me that over the years, the Cai family has been based in Jingxiang, relying only on some land and farmers! ”

"Of course not!" Cai Zhong puffed up his chest and said: "Although businessmen are lowly businesses, the Cai family also has a large number of shops, restaurants, and restaurants. As for the land, in fact, there is not much income, and it is better than nothing! In the event of a natural disaster, the Cai family will have to take out a large amount of money and grain to relieve the farmers and tenants who cannot survive! ”

"It is the responsibility of the imperial court to help the people, so why should the Cai family do anything more?" Zhuge Liang smiled slightly, as a relative, he naturally knew the surnames of several generals of the Cai family. Besides, when he supported Liu Bei, he was ready to seize Jingzhou in the first step, how could he not find out the surnames of several people in power in Jingzhou? So, Zhuge Liang scratched Cai Zhong's itch with a word!

"What Mr. said is very true, but those lands are passed down from ancestors, and I, as a descendant of the Cai family, can't abandon my ancestors' inheritance!" Cai Zhong is not only greedy and stingy, but also a little short-sighted. If it weren't for the fact that the Cai family really had no one, they would never push him to the position of the head of the family!

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "The general's words are wrong! With a little land in exchange for the Cai family, does the general still have to hesitate? Now, the king of Qin is at war with Cao Ying, and Cao Ying is weak and will be destroyed by the king of Qin sooner or later. At that time, who in the world would dare not listen to the order of King Qin? You can still be regarded as abandoning the darkness and turning to the light now, and then you can only be regarded as defeated and captured! ”

"This..."Cai Zhong and Cai He were stunned, thinking about it with their not very smart minds, what Zhuge Liang said made a lot of sense! After thinking for a while, Cai Zhong sighed: "What Mr. said is true, but we can't betray our friends!" ”

"The general is righteous, but you think wrong!" Seeing that Cai Zhong was loosened, Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "Although my lord has deprived the family of land and domestic slaves, he will never rob the family of property." Like restaurants, restaurants, and shops, they can be kept completely, and they can also use money to hire servants and maids, but they can't be killed at will like before. In the final analysis, the family just lost the land that did not make much money, and the right to kill the domestic slaves! But after paying these things, it can make King Qin feel at ease, and it can also make the Han Dynasty stable for a long time, is it a bad thing to make the world stable and let King Qin not be suspicious? You're not betraying your friends, you're helping them turn away from darkness and turn to light! ”

"But the Jingzhou family resists King Qin from the bottom of their hearts, if we help King Qin, how will we gain a foothold in Jingxiang in the future?" Cai Zhong's face was full of hesitation, as if Liu Zhang was a beast of the flood.

Seeing this, Zhuge Liang laughed, until Cai Zhong and Cai He's faces turned a little pale, and then he said with a straight face: "You want King Qin to bless you, but you don't want to pay the price, don't you think King Qin is a fool?" Give you two paths, either you will be attached to the King of Qin and carry out the policies of the King of Qin. Or, please go back wherever you come from, and you will not be entertained! ”

"Sir, don't be angry, let's think about it in the long run..."Cai Zhong and Cai He were anxious, if they could go back, they would not want to stay in the Qin army. But now, they have offended Sima Yi, and if they offend Zhuge Liang again, there will be no place to stand!

"Think long-term? What else is there to think about! Zhuge Liang sneered: "I was kind enough to persuade each other when the two of them were relatives, but what about you?" Come to my lord, and you will not do anything for my lord. Wherefore, then, does my Lord bless you? Directly wait for Sima Yi to destroy the Cai family, won't my lord be able to take over everything from the Cai family? Please go back! Someone, send off! ”

"Wait!" Cai Zhong yelled: "Sir, what do you need us to do, please tell me as you like!" For the sake of the family, you adults don't care about villains, just when we didn't say anything just now! ”

"Toast without eating and drinking, just do it early!" Zhuge Liang snorted coldly: "First tell the defense in Xiangyang City, as well as Sima Yi's plan, there must be no concealment, otherwise..."

"The last general understands!" Cai Zhong wiped a cold sweat, he also wanted to bully Zhuge Liang young, but he didn't expect Zhuge Liang to be so strong. However, people are swordsmen and I am fish and meat, he can only wait for Zhuge Liang to take the knife!

After listening carefully to the information in Xiangyang City, Zhuge Liang fell into deep thought. Sima Yi was going to burn down Xiangyang City, but he wasn't too worried. War will not be without destruction, and it will be rebuilt after it is broken. Since the cement was made, building a city has been too easy for Liu Zhang. He was only worried that the people who were robbed of food by Sima Yi would become a burden to him. Some time ago, Liu Zhang had turned the grain in several large grain hoarding points such as Chang'an and Luoyang into bereavement pensions and distributed them to the families of the fallen soldiers!

"No, you can't let Sima Yi rob the people!" Zhuge Liang slapped the table and asked, "Cai Zhong, Cai He, how did you get out of Xiangyang City?" ”

"The general in the north of Xiangyang City is a member of the Cai family, and he doesn't dare to stop us!" Cai Zhong patted his chest quite proudly, but Zhuge Liang was a little helpless! Who knows, this kind of behavior of theirs is intolerable to all the princes!

"Let him open the gates of the city and let our army into the city!" Zhuge Liang was too lazy to talk to the two, and directly said his order.

"This..."Cai He said with some hesitation: "Sir, isn't it difficult for you to be strong?" Although the general guarding the city gate is from the Cai family, if we want him to betray Cao Gong, he may not agree..."

"Don't talk nonsense, can or can't!" Zhuge Liang frowned, he had already seen that the two of them couldn't have a good face for this, otherwise they would take politeness as a blessing!

"Yes!" Seeing Zhuge Liang's gloomy face and murderous aura in his eyes, Cai Zhong hurriedly nodded, he just wanted to take advantage of the relationship between the city gate guards and the guards.

"That's great!" Patting Cai Zhong on the shoulder, Zhuge Liang smiled: "If you can help our army attack the city before Xiangyang is ransacked, Duke Qin will not forget your merits, and I can also fight for some more benefits for the Cai family, do you understand?" ”

"Got it down!" Cai Zhong smiled shyly: "Sir, since you want to attack Xiangyang, let's do it as soon as possible!" I don't want to see my hometown and fellow villagers being harmed by Sima Yi! To tell the truth, during the deliberations, I once spoke out against the looting, which provoked Sima Yi's murderous intent! ”

"Oh? I can't see that the general is still a lover of the people! Zhuge Liang smiled, and then said: "In this case, the soldiers are fast!" Come on, beat the drum! ”

For a while, the drums in the Qin army camp rumbled, and all the generals came to the Chinese army's tent. As for the soldiers, under the leadership of the adjutant general, they are also ready to fight! It was not difficult to attack the city with internal response, Zhuge Liang ordered Huang Zhong to escort Cai Zhong and Cai He to the north gate of Xiangyang to cheat the city, and he himself guarded the Cai family in the camp. If Cai Zhong and Cai He dare to play tricks, Zhuge Liang guarantees that the Cai family will no longer exist! Of course, Cai Mao's branch, Zhuge Liang will never move, after all, they are close relatives!

In Xiangyang City, Sima Yi didn't know that Cai Zhong and Cai He had fled with their families, and Wei Yan and Wen Ping had just gathered good people, one was ready to clean up Cai's family, and the other was ready to rob the people. Only Huang Jian knew the movements of the Cai family, and he secretly told Kuai Yue the news. The two carefully packed up the Huang family and the Kuai family, and then gathered the army and prepared to escape. However, the two had more vision than Cai Zhong and Cai He, and before the war began, the two sent their families to the manor outside the city.

With the army, Wei Yan came to the gate of Cai's mansion, and the little colonel stepped forward to call the door, but no one answered. He pushed open the door of the mansion and led his troops to rush into Cai's mansion, only to find that Cai's house was empty. Shocked, he hurried to find Sima Yi. After listening to Wei Yan's narration, Sima Yi secretly screamed in his heart. In order to stop Cai Zhong, Cai and Xiancheng, he immediately contacted Huang Jie and Kuai Yue. After learning that the guards of the North Gate had a lot of connections with the Cai family, Sima Yi ordered Wen Ping and Wei Yan to lead the army to the North Gate.

At this time, the heart of the North Gate Keeper is struggling! Although the family has always put the interests of the family first, and he is a partial brother of the Cai family, in the Han Dynasty, where the idea of loyalty was rampant, he could not make up his mind to betray. Inside the city is the lord in the heart, and outside the city is the family that gave birth to himself, and the north gate guard is really unable to choose.

"Take down Cai Yi!" Just when the guard of the north gate hesitated, a loud shout sounded, and I saw smoke and dust billowing not far away, and two generals galloped over. Obviously, the two of them are not good!

"Cai Yi, just be caught!" In the blink of an eye, Wei Yan had already killed the city tower, and the soldiers under Cai Yi's command stood with their guns up, as if they were going to fight with him. In order to prevent the guard dog from jumping off the wall in a hurry, Wei Yan didn't dare to attack!

"General Wei, why are you here?" Looking at the dense Cao army under the city, Cai Yi, the defender of the north of the city, asked with a smile: "Am I so unworthy of the general's trust?" ”

Wei Yan said: "This is not a matter of trust, now that the Cai family has rebelled, in order to prevent Xiangyang from falling into the hands of the enemy, I hope you can understand!" ”

"General Wei, if I don't tie my hands and arrest him, what are you going to do?" A cold light flashed in Cai Yi's eyes, but unfortunately he was standing too high, and Wei Yan couldn't see it!

"I'm sorry then!" Wei Yan sneered: "Come on, kill the soldiers of the North Gate, and take down Cai Yi with me!" ”

"Don't regret it!" Cai Yi roared violently: "Brothers, Sima Yi wants to rob the rations of the people of Xiangyang and burn down the houses in order to delay the speed of the Qin army. If General Cai refuses to do so, Sima Yi will kill him! Wei Yan, an accomplice, even coerced us to wait, so we opened the city gate and welcomed the army of King Qin into the city! ”

"Open the gates!" The guards at the north gate were ordered to open the city gate while defending against Wei Yan's corporaries. But Wei Yan is brave, and his soldiers are elite, much stronger than ordinary city gate defenders. Seeing that the guards were about to be killed, but the city gate had not yet opened, Cai Yi was anxious!

"Cut the deadbolt!" Cai Yi was shocked and angry, he walked to the other side of the city wall, and said to Cai Zhong who was waiting under the city: "General, Wei Yan is here, I have ordered someone to cut the door bolt, you can also help!" ”

"Come on, knock open the gates!" When Huang Zhong heard this, he immediately asked his corporal to bang on the door, although he didn't bring large siege equipment such as rushing cars, but it was not impossible. The soldiers cut down the big tree not far away and used the big tree as a ram. After hitting it a few times in a row, the bolt of the north gate of Xiangyang could not withstand the impact from both sides, and finally broke!

"Wei Wenchang, take your life!" As soon as the gate was broken, Huang Zhong saw Wei Yan with a red face, and immediately dragged the big knife to kill him!

Although they had fought before, Wei Yan never asked Huang Zhong's name. Seeing that Huang Zhong was brave, he shouted: "Come and get a name!" ”

"Nanyang Huang Zhong!" Speaking of which, people have also arrived, although Huang Zhong's war horse is not as good as Cuilong, Chitu and other BMW horses, but it is also a thousand miles horse. I saw him reining in his left hand and holding a knife in his right hand, slashing at Wei Yan's neck!

"When... The two knives intersected, and Wei Yan felt that the whole person was sinking down, and the war horse under his crotch let out a neighing! Knowing that he was not Huang Zhong's opponent, Wei Yan roared wildly: "Wen Zhongye, come and help me..."

"Wen Chang is shocked, I'm here too!" Wen Ping was not far away, and when he heard Wei Yan calling for help, he hurriedly rushed over. But when he saw Huang Zhong, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Wen Chang, you are too useless!" Such an old pawn makes you unable to parry? ”

"Boy, who do you say is the old pawn?" Huang Zhong's eyes widened, he hated others saying that he was old. Historically, Huang Zhong didn't like others to say that he was old because he had not achieved his achievements. Now, although he is famous, he still wants to gallop on the battlefield, and he doesn't want others to say that he is old. Wen Ping stabbed the hornet's nest with a word!

"I always have to admit it, you said that you are so old, you don't tease your grandson at home, in case you die on the battlefield in a while, wouldn't you give people meritorious deeds? Besides, even if we kill an old white hairer like you, we won't be able to show our ability! Wen Ping's mouth was not ordinary vicious, and the angry Huang Zhong's three corpses jumped violently.

"I'm mad at me! Boy, today you're going to pay for your words! The furious Huang Zhong raised his knife and killed Wen Ping, and the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow in his hand carried the whirring wind, as if it weighed a thousand catties.

"Where did the old white hair come from, so powerful? Wen Chang, you and I work together! "As the saying goes: as soon as the connoisseur makes a move, he knows if there is one. Hearing the wind caused by the big knife, Wen Ping immediately knew how powerful the enemy general was, and hurriedly beckoned Wei Yan to fight the enemy together. The two of them worked together to block Huang Zhong's big knife!

"It's kind of interesting, no wonder it's so rampant!" Huang Zhong said gloomily: "However, you have done your best, I haven't used my strength yet!" Look at the knives! ”

Clamping the horse's belly violently, Huang Zhong held a knife in both hands and slashed horizontally at the waist of the two, and the two joined forces to resist, but they never thought it was a false move. As soon as the blade turned, he slashed straight at Wen Ping, Huang Zhong, who was cautious, said to Wen Ping that he was old and still angry!

"Zhongye be careful!" Wei Yan was shocked, he knew that Wen Ping couldn't stop Huang Zhong, but his strength was old, and his new strength was not born, so he really couldn't rescue him. However, Wen Ping was not stupid, he saw that he really couldn't dodge, so he rolled to the ground, turned around and fled.
