After Cao Xiu returned to the house, he immediately sent someone to call Master Zhang Hui to discuss the affairs of the future people, this Master Zhang is a very smart person over fifty years old, he followed Cao Xiu to discuss in the east and west, and also came up with many good ideas, so he won Cao Xiu's respect.

Cao Xiu said: "The future people of the local area today claim to have a magical skill, and this trip is going to Xu Du to help me Cao Wei sweep Shu and Wu, and dominate the world, according to what the master sees, can this be taken seriously?" ”

Master Zhang was silent for a while and said, "General Hui, according to what I have seen below, we can make plans and actions with both hands, and we can ensure that nothing goes wrong." ”

"Oh! What is Master Zhang's opinion? Come and listen to General Ben. Cao Xiu said anxiously. Master Zhang took over the conversation and said, "I can wait in two steps."

The first step is to send a scout horse to Yiyang and Yicheng to inquire about the situation and see if what they say is true; Send another messenger to Xu Du to deliver a letter as soon as possible, telling the prime minister that there are a few future people who claim to be able to help Wei rule the world, and listen to the prime minister's opinion first. This second step is ......" Speaking of this, Master Zhang deliberately paused.

"Speak up quickly, don't hide it!" Cao Xiu said anxiously.

"General, I might as well wait like this, put on a Hongmen banquet for him, and try the strength of the future people by the way!"

"That's not right! The person who came here claimed to be going to Xu Du to help my King of Wei dominate the world, if we use this scheme to kill him, wouldn't I spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain? If the prime minister knows about this, what if he blames us and others? Cao Xiu said a little unpleasantly.

"The general's words are wrong, thinking that a few people in this district dare to boast of Haikou and want to help King Wei dominate the world, it is really beyond his strength! Judging from the following, this is a grasshopper shaking the tree, and it is purely a move to sell fame and reputation. I think that if I put on a banquet for him and try his strength, if he succeeds easily, it proves that he is incompetent, and he can't even deal with it, and he dares to talk about dealing with Sun and Liu? If we can kill them, we can also get their divine car and the things they carry, and we can enjoy them to the fullest.

In case the operation fails, the general can pretend not to know the inside story, and blame his subordinates, so he will wait for his mouth to speak wildly, and if the subordinate sergeants are dissatisfied and act without authorization, the general can kill a few people and let them take the blame for death. ”

Cao Xiu thought for a while and said: "This method is feasible, if we kill it easily, it can prove that the future people are a group of people who are happy to make great achievements; It also saves the prime minister from worrying about this matter, and we can also get the things he uses by the way. Thinking of this, Cao Xiu's face showed a lewd smile, and his eyes released a strange look.

It turned out that when he was in the general's mansion in the morning, he saw Wang Yan getting off the car, oops! That woman is so beautiful! This woman looks like a fairy, with the appearance of a sinking fish and a goose; Look at her tight-fitting outfit that she has never seen before, and her towering breasts show the beautiful curves of women to the fullest, which is really breathtaking.

To say that this Cao Xiu is still an upright person. This person is not very greedy for official positions and money, and his only hobby is obsessed with beauty. When he saw Wang Yan, he was distracted and wanted to get into trouble on the spot, and he hated to possess her immediately. But because of the occasion and the dignity and etiquette he deserved, he pretended to be calm and did not show it. At this time, hearing Master Zhang say this, he reminded him. So he immediately replied: "This plan is feasible, but it needs to be cautious and thorough; In addition, you must not kill them all, but keep the woman alive, and the general will try her personally. ”

"This matter is handed over to the next one, but the plan can be guaranteed, and the general will wait for the good news." Master Zhang continued Cao Xiu's words and said.

What a smart person this Master Zhang is, he had already thought of General Cao's thoughts, "Don't you just want to get that strange woman?" I will definitely grant his wish!" Master Zhang stroked his beard with his hand and smiled proudly.

Cao Xiu continued: "Although you can choose your subordinates, you must be cautious and confidential, and if something happens, you will be asked!" ”

"The general can rest assured!" Master Zhang said in a resolute tone. After that, this Master Zhang hurriedly said goodbye and went out to deploy the "Hongmen Banquet" in the evening.

This general's mansion is surrounded by rows of tall and leafy trees, and the surrounding area also looks even more gloomy. At this time, the sky was still drizzling, and the rain was constantly dripping down the branches and leaves. Except for a few soldiers hiding under a tree in the distance to avoid the rain, it was strangely quiet. The "Crossing Ship" stopped here, and the surrounding environment looked even more eerie in this gloomy weather, giving people a heavy feeling.

In a blink of an eye, it was time for lunch, Li Yong looked at the table below, it was almost thirteen o'clock, and no one had come to invite them to dinner, so he said: "It seems that no one has invited us to dinner at noon today, let's solve it ourselves; Take time out into town in the afternoon to see if you can get some food. So they took out the leftover food that Xiahou Shen gave in Yiyang City yesterday and ate it, and finally filled their stomachs.

After lunch, Li Yong said to Wang Weihong: "Go check the weather conditions in the past two days, and if the weather is good, use the satellite to see the situation in Xudu." So Wang Weihong turned on the computer, looked at the satellite cloud map after computer analysis, and said: "According to the analysis of the satellite cloud image, it has been a rainy day in the past two days, and the clouds are also very thick, and the satellite cannot see the real-time situation in Xuchang. ”

Li Yong continued: "We can't just wait passively when the weather is bad, so let's study the next course of action." ”

Liu Dahai said: "I suggest that Wang Yan and I go to the city in civilian clothes in the afternoon to learn about the situation in the city, buy some food by the way, and wait for it to find an opportunity to get out of the city and go to Xudu overnight to investigate." If nothing happens, we will be able to come back to rendezvous the day after tomorrow at the latest. ”

"I agree with your plan, although it is a bit risky, it is necessary to go to Xudu City to understand the situation. Well, if you go out in the afternoon, see if you can buy two horses, so that you can walk faster. Li Yong then replied.

Chen Tao and Wang Weihong also agreed to this plan.

At this moment, General Cao led a team of men and horses over, and Li Yong hurriedly got out of the car to greet him. Cao Xiu hugged his fists and said, "Oh, I'm really sorry!" General Ben had important military affairs in the morning and delayed the lunch of distinguished guests, which was rude! ”

Li Yong hurriedly clasped his hands into fists and saluted back: "General Cao has a lot of opportunities every day, and he is busy with military affairs, so I have already had lunch, so I won't work for the general, so I have two people who are interested in the hidden city, and I want to go to see and buy some items in the afternoon, I don't know if General Cao can be gracious?" ”

"Oh! Are you interested in this place? Very good, very good! General Ben will be accompanied by them, and they will definitely be satisfied, but it's late today, why don't you go again tomorrow? In addition, this general said to his subordinates in the morning that there are future people here to help King Wei rule the world, and the people present are all very excited, and they all said: "You have come here over the mountains and mountains without any hardships, and we should be hospitable to fulfill the friendship of the landlord." Tonight, a banquet will be held here to pay homage to you and others with your subordinates, and everyone will have to get drunk before resting. Cao Xiu said with a smile.

Li Yong hurriedly said: "When I first arrived in the treasure land, I didn't have any merit, and I didn't dare to bother General Cao!" I'll take care of the general's kindness, so let's treat it. ”

"Hey! That's a bad word! You are a guest when you wait here, and it is our intention to invite you to treat you, and please wait for you to enjoy the light. Cao Xiu continued.

Li Yong thought to himself, what kind of medicine is this person selling in his gourd? Deliberately hanging us at noon, but now insisting on having a treat at night, will there be fraud? But now it's hard to resist, and if you don't go, you may arouse suspicion. It's better to do this, since he must have a treat, we have to go and see, not eat for nothing, and by the way, explore his details.

Thinking of this, Li Yong clasped his hands into fists and said: "Since General Cao is so graciously invited, we are very grateful and will definitely go to the banquet on time!" ”

"Okay, it's a deal! At that time, General Ben will ask people to invite, and you and the others had better go together, and we will drink him and get drunk! Cao Xiu said with a laugh, and then led the men and horses back.

Seeing the back of Cao Xiu and the others in the distance, Li Yong hurriedly returned to the car and told everyone about Cao Xiu's invitation to the banquet in the evening. At first, everyone was quite happy, but after a while, they felt that something was wrong, and the more they thought about it, the more they felt that something was wrong.

Wang Yan said: "Why didn't he invite us at noon, he didn't even say hello, but he insisted on inviting us to a banquet at night, if we didn't go, it wouldn't work, could it be a 'Hongmen banquet'?" ”

"I also agree with Wang Yan's idea, since we can't shirk it, we can only go, no matter what banquet he has, but we must be fully prepared." Li Yong said. Liu Dahai and Chen Tao both agreed.

"This time we went to four people, and Wei Hong stayed in the car on duty. You have to close the car door, be ready for battle, and don't let them snatch the car, that is our capital and the last safe fortress! If necessary, you can drive around the city and never be soft on those who dare to attack! ”

Li Yong continued: "When we go to the banquet this time, we must bring the necessary equipment and sufficient ammunition, and everyone must be extremely vigilant!" If they dare to do it, we must strike first! The leader was killed on the spot. As the saying goes, the thief captures the king first! I'll control Cao Xiu, and the others will play on the spot. In addition, Wang Yan also had to bring an infrared detector to find out the killers they were ambushing and prevent them from hiding in the shadows to sneak attack. ”

Finally, he asked, "Do you understand?" Everyone said in unison, "Understood! Li Yong said: "Okay! That's it! Everyone get ready, take a break and wait for the evening action. ”

At about six o'clock in the evening, sure enough, someone came running over, and shouted from a distance: "General Cao has invited all guests to the general's mansion for dinner!" ”

So Li Yong and his entourage got out of the car and went to the general's mansion with the comers.

Looking at Li Yong and the others, each of them was wearing tight-fitting protective clothing, combat boots on their feet, a pistol in their waists, and no one was holding a helmet in their left hand; Liu Dahai and Chen Tao each carried an assault rifle in their right hand. Wang Yan is the same as them, but with a small bag in her right hand.

At this moment, on the General's Mansion, the red lanterns are hanging high, and the lights are bright. Cao Xiu led a group of people to wait outside the gate of the mansion early to greet him. Seeing Li Yong and them coming, Cao Xiu led his subordinates and immediately greeted them. Cao Xiu clasped his hands into fists and said: "Cao Xiu, the guard of the hidden city, Cao Wenju led the civil and military generals to welcome the future people!" Everyone clenched their fists at the same time and chimed in: "Welcome to the future!" ”

Li Yong and the others stopped, and Li Yong also clasped his hands into fists and said, "Thank you, General Cao!" Thank you very much for your kind invitation! So under their leadership, they came to the backyard hall of the General's Mansion.

This is exactly what it is: the military adviser designed the Hongmen banquet, and Cao Xiu was greedy and nodded

Recognize the thief's plan, be prepared, and go to the banquet with confidence
