Chapter 275: Ma Chao is coming
Yuan Jun captured Chang'an, Cao Cao immediately changed his strategy, did not want a bloody battle to attack the city, he knew that Ma Chao at this moment because of the loss of his father and Yuan Shang bitter enmity, so for the time being, the army did not move, expecting Ma Chao to go to Chang'an bloody battle, of course, Cao Cao's move did not expect Ma Chao to be able to capture Chang'an, he just wanted to take advantage of this battle to see how difficult the Yuan army entrenched in Chang'an City was, and Chang'an's huge high wall barrier, under Yuan Shang's wisdom and calculation, will have a great defensive ability.
At this time, Ma Chao because of the pain of losing his father, as expected, acted according to Cao Cao's expectations, although his subordinates took Pang De as the capital and persuaded him not to attack Chang'an easily, but how could Ma Chao's violent temper and temperament listen? Cao Cao doesn't move, he can wait, but he Ma Chao must not wait! He wanted to kill Taping Chang'an, kill Yuan Shang, and avenge his father's blood and revenge.
As a result, all the Xiliang troops formed a huge formation and began to attack towards Chang'an City.
At this time in Chang'an City, in addition to posting a list to calm the people, appease the people, and re-establish the officials in the city, Yuan Shang also had a very important thing to do, that is, as Cai Yan searched around the city for the famous ancient texts left in Chang'an.
Sure enough, as Cai Yan expected, Chang'an is one of the two capitals, the ancient city of the country, the residence of the famous family in the city has its underground secret passage, which contains written classics, ancient classics, although it was damaged a lot by Dong Zhuo and Li Dao successively, but it also preserved a large part of the secret collection of the family's family, which can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune, and now, it is Cai Yan, who is familiar with the family's hiding method, with the assistance of Yuan Jun, to collect these buried ancient books and history books one by one. It is intended to be passed on to future generations.
"I didn't expect that there would be so many cellars in the dignified ancient capital of Chang'an, where famous families gathered...... This cellar let them dig. They are almost in time for the air-raid shelter, and they are not afraid of digging up Chang'an City. If you try hard, you can probably dig up oil. In the cellar of the former residence of the former chamberlain of the imperial court, Yuan Shang was secretly speechless while watching the soldiers carry the classical classics.
Sima Yi is also following Yuan Shang to dig up the collection of classics at this moment. Hearing this, he couldn't help but glance at Yuan Shang curiously. He said, "My lord, what is oil?" ”
"A kind of black water that can be ignited, worth more than gold." Yuan Shang said casually, he said. His eyes were still shooting around, but suddenly he stopped at the crystal clear jade carving in the cellar.
Yuan Shang's eyes suddenly shone with a little brilliance.
Reached out to grab the jade carving, but suddenly a Qianqian jade hand stretched out from behind and grabbed Yuan Shang's wide sleeve, but it was Cai Yan. She frowned and said, "Duke Yuan can't take this thing without permission. ”
Yuan Shang frowned when he heard this, and said strangely: "Auntie, you want to rob me?" …… It's okay, I'm a very personable person, if you like it, Yuan will give it to you. ”
When Cai Yan heard this, his face couldn't help but turn red, he glanced at Yuan Shang dissatisfiedly, and said in a low voice: "Who wants to rob you...... It's just that the treasures in the house are hidden in the low, and they are all used to exorcise ghosts in the auxiliary courtyard of the house. It is not taken and must not be tampered with. ”
"Town House?" Yuan Shang couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this, and said: "This house has changed hands eight hundred times, and the owner of this jade carving still doesn't know whether he is alive or dead." What's the town to keep it for? It's better to let me take it, so as not to storm the heavenly things......"
Cai Yan frowned when she heard this, and said coquettishly: "Anyway, you are not allowed to take it, you don't listen to the words of the eldest aunt?" ”
Yuan Shang was stunned when he heard this. The corners of his mouth twitched, and then he withdrew his hand with a smug hand. There was a hint of helplessness.
He swept his eyebrows, but he saw Cai Yan holding a dark object in his bad, but he couldn't see clearly because the light was too dim, and then said, "Auntie, what are you holding in your bad?" Hugging so tightly, isn't it a baby? Take it out and share it with you. ”
Cai Yan glanced at Yuan Shang dissatisfied, but he still slowly squatted down, opened the curtain wrapped on it, revealing a seemingly old guqin, and said in a low voice: "This is what I took out of the cellar of Cai's old mansion in the past......"
Yuan Shang looked up and down a few times, and said strangely: "It's just a broken piano, it's all black and scum, and you still ran back to the ancient mansion to get it?" Don't you have any treasures to take out of your old Cai family? ”
Sima Yi didn't know when he came to Yuan Shang's side, he couldn't help shaking when he heard the words, and hurriedly said: "Lord, it's not your fault that you don't have eyesight and don't know the goods, but it's a little wrong to don't know the goods and pretend to understand. What a treasure of the world! ”
Cai Yan nodded when he heard this, and said in a low voice: "Mr. Sima is right, this thing is the treasure of my father's beloved life, and it is also the only relic left behind after his death, so when I come back this time, I will take it with me to commemorate it......... Seeing this piano is like seeing my father......"
Speaking of this, Cai Yan seemed to be seeing things and thinking about people, and the face of his former father Cai Yong was flooded in his mind, and two lines of warm tears slowly fell down the face without makeup.
Yuan Shang was stunned when he saw this, and hurriedly took out the Jinpa he was carrying and handed it to Cai Yan, then glared at Sima Yi dissatisfiedly, and said angrily: "You know a lot!" But it's showing you, isn't it, you see! It made my aunt cry! What do you take with you? Damn, you will be fined a month's monthly salary as compensation! ”
Sima Yi was immediately anxious when he heard this, and stomped his feet and said, "Lord, you still can't be reasonable!" Cai's family sees things and thinks about people, it is human nature, what does it have to do with Yi? Besides, even if I offended everyone Cai, and you punished me and didn't give it to her, didn't you take the opportunity to blackmail? ”
Yuan Shang snorted coldly when he heard this, and said, "I'll take care of your money, what if you don't pay a penalty!" Do you want to be punished for singing a song? But I don't think my aunt wants to hear it. ”
Cai Yanshi was sad, and at this moment, she couldn't help but laugh "poof", tears mixed with smiles, making her cry not like crying, not laughing like laughing, just glanced at Yuan Shang helplessly, and said: "Yuan Gong, you are a person, ...... Why is it always so unserious, you are also the lord of the four states, but you have no sense of proportion when you speak. ”
Sima Yi nodded when he heard this, and said: "Everyone Cai's words are in line with Yi, and I also think that this lord is a little too formal!" What is even more hateful is that we who always use the matter of fines to blackmail those of us as staff members don't have much money in the first place, and we are always fined........."
Sima Yi hadn't finished his words, but he heard a burst of anxious footsteps, but a soldier hurriedly ran to Yuan Shang's side, muttered something into his ear, and saw Yuan Shang's smile close, and his face suddenly sank.
Seeing this, Sima Yi also put away his laughter, and said solemnly: "Lord, what's wrong?" ”
Yuan Shang laughed and said slowly: "It's an old friend...... Ma Chao is here! ”
*************************
Under the city of Chang'an, flags fluttered and Margo hissed.
Under the city of Chang'an, there are white flags and white armor everywhere, and the Xiliang soldiers all over the mountains are roaring towards the edge of the city, and the dazzling pickaxes on their bodies can almost be submerged on the mountain, and the male hooves of the war horses under their crotches can almost crush Lin Quan.
The Xiliang army is getting closer and closer, getting closer and closer, and gradually you can hear the rumbling hooves and whistling cries of horses, like a strong wind sweeping through the tide, like a torrential rain washing over the forest. The ground shook slightly, and the horses' hooves that were getting closer and closer seemed to hit the bones of the people.
And above the city, a group of generals of the Yuan army led by Zhang Jaw and Zhang Yan, under the strong formation of the Xiliang army, their faces couldn't help but be a little pale, and they could see the anger and strength of the enemy army, if it were not for the strong city wall of Chang'an as a barrier, in the face of such a mourning soldier full of raging anger and monstrous war intent, even if the Yuan army was elite, if they wanted to win them, they would definitely have to pay a considerable price.
The Xiliang army came to the city to set up a formation, but saw a young general in white mourning clothes and white armor flying out of the horse, came to the front of the city outside the arrows, raised the spear in his hand and roared at the city: "Yuan Shang! You have the guts to get out of here! ”
This is none other than Xiliang Jinma Chao who wants to avenge his father!
Above the city, Zhang Jaw frowned, stepped forward, like an iron statue standing on the edge of the city wall, and replied in a loud voice: "Who are you?" How dare you call my lord by his name! “
"I'm Ma Chao yes! I won't talk to you, just let Yuan Shang come out and answer with me! ”
Hearing this, Zhang Jaw laughed, shook his head and said, "Ma Chao? It's just a puppet, and you are also worthy of arguing with me, speaking of which, you are just a defeated general under one of my former members of General Zhao Zilong in Hebei. I'm willing to say a few words to you, I'm quite worthy of you, don't be satisfied! ”
"Bastard! Thou hast treacherously killed my father and lost the hearts of the people, and now how dare you rap with me here? Open your jaw, just say to you! When I break through the city, after Yuan Shang and Er wait for the rats, the first person to kill is you! ”
"Good, good, good!" With a burst of soft applause, he saw Yuan Shang coming to the city with a smile on his face, looking at Ma Chao who was jumping fiercely below, and couldn't help nodding in approval: "I haven't seen you for three years, Brother Meng's demeanor is still the same, and his divine power has not diminished back then, which is really gratifying." ”
Behind Yuan Shang, the knees of the generals were weak, and they almost knelt at the head of the city for Yuan Shang.
Under the city wall, Ma Chao was stunned for a moment, and then a pair of heroic eyebrows wrinkled tightly, and roared at Yuan Shang: "Fart! Fart! Who do you call Brother Meng? Ben will be the word Meng! Ma, Meng, Qi! ”
