Text Chapter 27 Divide the money on the land

"Who's coming? The name of the reporter. Cao Cao was dividing his troops to pursue Bocai according to the method discussed with Zhu Jun, when he saw a group of cavalry coming from the opposite side, he hurriedly stopped his horse and asked, after making a gesture to keep his subordinates on guard.

At this time, Cao Cao was still a little apprehensive in his heart. He knew a little about Bo Cai very well, this person was not so easy to deal with, otherwise, he would not have defeated Zhu Jun and would not have become the leading general of the Yellow Turban Five Tigers.

Even he thought that with his current strength, he brought less than 2,000 people, and he was afraid that if he really met Bocai, it would be difficult to predict who would win and who would lose.

When I had scruples, a cavalry came to my face, and it would be strange to say that I didn't play the drum in my heart. He was even ready to turn his horse back at any moment.

"Is it Brother Mengde? I'm Zhiyuan. When Cao Cao was still wondering who he was from, whether he was friend or foe, Zhang Chao's shout came from the cavalry camp.

"Zhiyuan?" Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and then asked as if he remembered something, "But Zhang Chao and Zhang Zhiyuan?" ”

"Exactly, exactly." Zhang Chao said, and first broke away from Zhao Yun and the others and stepped forward.

Zhang Chao rushed over, still dressed in dazzling white, Cao Cao firmly believed it, and for a while he had a smile on his face, but at the same time, he also stepped forward and asked, "Brother Zhiyuan, why are you here?" ”

"Why is Brother Meng De here?" Zhang Chao didn't answer immediately, but asked rhetorically.

Cao Cao was so smart that he woke up and said, "Could it be that Brother Zhiyuan also came to chase down the Yellow Turban Thief?" ”

"Brother Meng De is powerful, and he hits the nail on the head. In fact, to be able to come here, I was also reminded by you and my eldest brother. "Zhang Chao was talking, and he came to Cao Cao's side and hugged him." On the same day, you and your eldest brother ordered someone to go back to urge the transportation of grain and grass, and the younger brother knew that the front line must be unfavorable. Thinking that the rise and fall of the country was the responsibility of the husband, he came here with a cavalry that had been trained for a while. Because of the urgency of the war, I didn't have time to inform him, and I chased it all the way here. ”

Cao Cao knew that Zhang Miao went back to send people to urge food. The Changshe was surrounded for a long time and could not break out, so they thought of fighting a long war, so they ordered people to go back to urge the transportation of grain and grass. Unexpectedly, Zhang Chao also took action because of this.

After knowing what happened, Cao Cao burst out laughing, "I see." So, it was you Zhang Zhiyuan who burned down the Bocai camp last night? ”

"Yes, it was the foolish brother, I saw that the Yellow Turban Thieves lived in makeshift grass huts, so I led my cavalry straight to the ground. I just wanted to retreat after a surprise attack, but I never thought that the other party would be so unburned, so I led my brothers to pursue all the way here. Zhang Chao said as if he had no heart and lungs, and everything he did was completely accidental.

Cao Cao was still wondering who had the courage to break into the Bocai camp at night and set the other party's military camp on fire. Just thinking that this must be a heroic hero, when he first heard that it was Zhang Chao who did it, he was immediately relieved.

The story of Zhang Chao leading a cavalry of nearly 1,000 people to defend Chen Liu's battle has been spread to the front line. Although he didn't know that Zhang Chao organized such a group of cavalry in such a short period of time, Cao Cao was indeed very envious of this matter, and he also hoped that he could have such an army, so that he would have greater capital and make greater contributions.

For this reason, Cao Cao also deliberately inquired about Zhang Miao, but where would there be any results? Just when he was still thinking about whether to look for an opportunity to bring these cavalry into his own hands, after all, in terms of connections in the imperial court, he was much stronger than Zhang Miao. If he speaks, the other party should not dare not give it.

Besides, he has his own set of dealing with Zhang Miao, he knows that this person values love and righteousness, and his heart is also sincere, as long as he finds the right opportunity to speak, he will definitely not refuse himself.

didn't think about it, everything had not been done yet, so Zhang Chao sent it to the door by himself.

Thinking that if he had such a powerful cavalry, he would dare to break into the Bocai camp at night, after all, if he couldn't beat it, could he at least run away?

And this matter was finally done by Zhang Chao, I really don't know if this person is too lucky, or if the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and hit a big bargain.

Cao Cao's face was a little uncertain, and he actually expressed a little envy and jealousy of Zhang Chaolai. After this incident, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun will definitely reward their merits, and then report to the imperial court, but unfortunately most of their credit will be snatched away by others.

Cao Cao was silent for a long time, and Zhang Chao guessed his thoughts and said: "Brother Meng De, I actually hit by mistake this time, and it was completely righteous and angry. I'm afraid that my brother will teach me a lesson in the future, and I don't know if I can ask my brother for something. ”

"What's the matter?" Cao Cao didn't think too much about asking.

"So, if my brother asks me why I'm here, can you push it on you, that is, you trust me a little and let me help secretly? If my brother is willing to do me this favor, I have just seized a cart of treasure here, and I am willing to share it equally with my brother. Zhang Chao said with a frightened, but very righteous look.

"What? Where is the treasure of a carriage? When Cao Cao heard that there was a treasure here, he couldn't help but be moved for a while.

"In the ranks of my cavalry." When Zhang Chao saw Cao Cao's attitude, he knew that there was a play, so he took the initiative to beat the horse and lead it to the side of the carriage.

Some cavalrymen had already lifted the tent cloth from the carriage, revealing a lot of gold and silver inside.

If you really have a cart of treasure, you will have half of yourself. Cao Cao's face showed a hint of joy, this is a good thing for himself.

admits that Zhang Chao was invited by himself, which is not bad for him at all, on the contrary, he has the merit of recommending talents. You can get these benefits afterwards, so why not take advantage of such a bargain?

In line with the idea that it is a bastard not to take advantage of it, Cao Cao pretended to be righteous and awe-inspiring: "Zhiyuan and I can be said to be familiar at first sight, even if you open your mouth, I can't agree if I don't agree." ”

"Brother Meng De is happy, even if this is the case, I will immediately divide the treasure with someone, and ask my brother to send someone to do things together." Zhang Chao pretended to be afraid that Cao Cao would regret it, and said hurriedly. But in my heart, I really greeted the eighteen generations of the other party's ancestors. If Cao Cao hadn't appeared here now, these things would have been his own.

But if you want to open it on the other hand, once you grow stronger in the future, you don't know how much benefit you will get from Cao Apu's hands. Even so, how about giving the other person a little sweetness first?

Zhang Chao was so anxious, Cao Cao just symbolically said that there was no need to be so anxious. Then he sent his account books to deal with the matter.

A cart of treasure was quickly registered and re-registered, and began to divide equally. During this period, while waiting, Zhang Chao told the story of this sneak attack on the Bocai camp in detail.

Of course, there is too much water in this so-called detail.

For example, Zhang Chao did not plan for a long time at all, but made meritorious contributions, so he attacked first without finding out the enemy's reality. It's just that the results are better.

For example, this time he brought a full 700 cavalry, but left a hundred to maintain the law and order of Chen Liu. I never thought that after the First World War, most of the troops were lost, and a total of 200 soldiers were gained. Fortunately, under the courage to kill the enemy, it can be regarded as some gains, and the enemy general He Yi was killed.

"Oh, Brother Meng De, don't you know, in order to eliminate harm to the country and bring peace to the people, how much effort and hard work I have paid." Zhang Chaoda poured bitter water.

Listening to the cavalry with only 200 people left, Cao Cao felt a pity in his heart, if it was just this little force, it would be difficult to open his mouth, and it would not be worth it to exchange these troops for a big favor.

"My lord, it's over here." At this time, the main Bo came over and reported to Cao Cao.

Seeing that the treasure was divided, Cao Cao was also a little upset, and seeing that Zhang Chao had said so much at this meeting, he patted him on the shoulder and said: "Zhiyuan, don't worry, this time you have made a great contribution, and I will definitely report some detailed things to the court." ”

"Oh, thank you Brother Meng De in advance." Zhang Chao looked flattered.

Looking at Zhang Chao's sensible things, that is, he gave himself credit, and gave money benefits, and there was a friendship of giving wine before, Cao Cao thought in his heart while looking at this person who was making a fool of himself, after this time, he must report this matter to Huangfu Song, after all, it is also beneficial to himself, and it can also make people owe himself favors, with many benefits, why not do it?

Zhang Chao calculated that it would be good for Cao Cao to report that he was good, and besides, he was soft on people, so it should be a matter of course for him to have a name on the credit book this time. Seeing the development of time and the appearance of various heroes, it is time for him to seek his own fame.

This is also a thing that has no way, no reputation, no position, how to make people believe in themselves, so to recruit talents, so to lay the foundation for doing great things in the future?

The two men had their own thoughts, but their goals were the same, and the two armies merged together after dividing the treasures, and turned back.

The place where Bocai had all the camps before had now been occupied by Huangfu Song and others, and had become a gathering place for the new imperial army.

Zhu Jun also returned from the front line, this time he pursued in the wrong direction, there was no big gain, just captured some scattered Yellow Turban Army, so everyone put their hope on Cao Cao's way.

Although it is said that he has hope, but thinking of Bocai's own strength, I am afraid that even Cao Cao will not be able to bargain for this person.

Knowing Cao Cao's true strength, he didn't even have a famous general under him, so Huangfu Song was just waiting for someone to come back and was ready to start attacking Runan.
