On the sixth day of the first month, Cao Cao temporarily resigned from Gentle Township, six fast horses, and went straight to Erlong Mountain.

Seeing Lu Zhishen and others was another joy.

Years ago, Zhou Tong and Lu Fang Guo Sheng drove thousands of horses back, everyone was overjoyed, at this moment to see the new Shi Wengong, Su Ding two brave generals, as well as the famous Hebei three unique jade unicorn, more and more ecstatic, Hua Monk immediately ordered a banquet, for Cao Cao and others to catch the wind.

During the banquet, Cao Cao raised a glass to celebrate Zhou Tong's achievements, praised Zhou Tong's hard bones, and Shi Wengong and Su Ding echoed and testified, which immediately impressed everyone.

It turned out that when Zhou Tong first returned, he also mentioned this section, but everyone knew that he had always been slippery, but he only added oil and vinegar to show his ability, and praised a few words perfunctorily on his face, but he was not convinced in his heart.

Cao Cao officially said it at this moment, and all the good men knew that in addition to being smooth this week, there were indeed a few hard bones, and they were extremely righteous.

Monk Hua is the most upright person, he got up at the moment, punished himself with three glasses, and poured wine to salute Zhou Tong: "Only three glasses of wine, only punish the family with two bird's eyes, but I don't know what a hero!" Brother, you and I are actually very close to each other, when I was in the young lady's boudoir, I didn't know each other, I only hated the dog who looked down on people, and today I only knew your righteousness, brother, this glass of wine is to make amends for the family! ”

Zhou Tong was shocked: "Master don't say that, a character like a little brother, who can be a brother with the master, is already a smoke from the ancestral grave, and he can't afford to make amends." ”

Lu Zhishen said unhappily: "Compared to brothers, how can anyone be higher and who is lower?" The Sprinkle family underestimated you in the past, you don't want to underestimate yourself, this word reparation, if a man like you can't deserve it, who else in the world can deserve it? Drink! ”

After saying that, the two of them had a drink, and Lu Zhishen sighed with emotion: "You and Brother Li Zhong are the best, but unfortunately now you are an official in Laizhou, if he knows that you are such a hero, he will also be happy for you." ”

Lu Zhishen retreated, and Yang Zhi came over with a cup: "Brother, you are from Peach Blossom Mountain, I am from Erlong Mountain, and I am generally a hero in Qingzhou. Come, this glass of wine, Yang respects you. ”

Zhou Tong hurriedly said: "Ah, Yang Zhizhi, how can the little brother be deserved?" "Two more drinks.

After Yang Zhi, Lin Chong, Hua Rong, Hu Yanzhuo and others came to pay their respects one by one.

Zhou Tong was flattered, but he also felt full of spirit in his heart - these individuals, any of their martial arts and reputation, are not comparable to their Taohuashan duo, but now they are all low and small, talking to him, respecting him and loving him, such a feeling, it is really happy from the heart!

After being excited, the wine was dry, and after a while, he was already drunk, hugged Cao Cao and said: "Brother, the younger brother has been a strong man for half a lifetime, and now I know that it is so happy to be a good man." ”

Cao Cao patted him and said: "Although you are slippery on weekdays, you are not the person who has hard legs and soft legs, and you can't practice just talking. ”

comforted him softly, until Zhou Tong snored, Cao Cao taught him to sleep in the room, and continued to drink with everyone.

So Qingzhou lived for a day, Erlongshan for a day, seven or eight days passed in a blink of an eye, and suddenly on this day, Shi Qian and Fan Rui and Meng Kang came to Erlongshan.

Shi Qian said that after he sent a box of treasures and 500,000 yuan of money to Bianjing, Gao Yu was extremely happy, and immediately issued three pieces of paper to tell himself, and sealed Yang Lin as the commander of Lingzhou soldiers and horses.

This is the reason why Cao Cao sent a few of his people, "white-faced Langjun" Zheng Tianshou and "Jin Leopard" Yang Lin, who were originally in charge of Cao Cao's two lines of business and business, and now they have an official position, and they just took over the business of Zengtou City and included them under the command of Tongque Commercial Bank.

As for the 'blue-eyed tiger' Li Yun, he has been the head of the capital for many years and has the most experience, and the training of the Baoding in Zengtou City is naturally managed by him.

The three of them arrived in Zengtou City, just in place of Fan Rui and Meng Kang.

In addition, Gao Yu also had a sentence to Gao Yanei: Within three or five years, he was not allowed to return to Tokyo, nor was he allowed to write letters, lest the official family find out, which would be a big crime.

Lin Chong gritted his teeth and said with a smile: "Within three or five years, maybe I will send him to see his son." ”

Cao Cao said with a smile: "Brother Lin Chong is right, Brother Shiqian is not worried about the official's not having to do it, one day, you will be a good brother as a brother." ”

Shi Qian smiled: "No official, it's better to be happy by my brother's side." The younger brother's skills can only be truly brilliant under the command of the elder brother. ”

Then he said, for Cao Cao's words "He will conquer Liangshan every day and make some small efforts", Gao Yu replied: Don't worry too much, just focus on doing business and making money. After the New Year, the imperial court will go out in three ways to conquer the army, and Liangshanbo will be leveled in one fell swoop!

As soon as these words came out, the whole hall was shaken, and Shi Qian said with a smile: "The old thief said this, and the younger brother was also frightened at that time, but fortunately, he gave his tongue well, and sang and harmonized with Yang Lin, and pulled out the foundation of his three-way army——"

Then he talked about the three road army, the first way, it was a soldier and horse in Bianjing, known as the "ugly county horse" Xuanzan, and promoted his fellow villager friend "Dadao" Guan Sheng as the main general.

Although this Guan Sheng is only a Pudong inspection, he is familiar with military books and has a family tradition of clever swordsmanship, if you ask him who his ancestors are? Saying it shocks people's courage, it is three points at the end of the Han Dynasty, after Guan Yu and Guan Yunchang, the king of righteous and brave martial arts!

This person entered Beijing to meet Gao Yu and Cai Jing, and was deeply appreciated, and was promoted to many ranks, promoted to the commander of the army, and ordered the transfer of 15,000 elite soldiers from Shandong and Hebei to his commander, with his sworn brother "Jing Mu Qian" Hao Siwen as the vanguard, and Xuanzan as the queen, and sent the infantry captain Duan Chang to receive the grain and grass.

Hearing this, Cao Cao couldn't help but be surprised, he had read history books for more than two years, among which Wang Yin's "Shu Ji" was clearly written: "Pang Dezi Hui, with Zhong, Deng Hua Shu, Shu Po, and wipe out the Guan family." ”

When he first read it, he gritted his teeth and hated: "Guan Pang fought on the battlefield, each for the sake of state affairs, life and death are heroic, and it is not a personal enmity, how can there be a reason to destroy his bloodline after more than 40 years?" Pang Hui, villain, his father has a spirit in the sky, and he despises him as a person! ”

Why is there a victory now? frowned and thought for a moment, and suddenly realized-

Yun Chang was originally a Xie Liangren, but he escaped on the rivers and lakes because he killed the bully in the township, and by chance, he was accepted as a brother by the big ear; And this pass is competent for Pudong inspection, inspectors, arresting thieves and smuggling, mostly filled by local martial artists, Pudong is the territory of Jiezhou, Guan Yu fled that year, maybe there will be a brother left in the local area, inheritance of Guan Sheng.

secretly rejoiced in his heart, and let Shi Qian continue.

The second way, but the transfer of Zengtou City is located in Lingzhou two regimental training envoys, a "Holy Fire General" Wei Dingguo, a "Shenshui General" Shan Tingjue, these two people are Guan Sheng's old acquaintances, each trained 500 elites, good at fire attack, water attack, with these two as deputy generals, go to Gaotang Prefecture, with the prefect Gao Lian marched together.

Lu Zhishen listened to it and said with a smile: "Those birds before, it's okay, how can even the prefect be sent to fight?" Could it be that this pinch of bird prefects, in addition to chanting poems and painting, can also use knives and sticks? ”

Shi Qian said with a smile: "Senior brother, this incorruptible prefect, but he should not be underestimated, he is the uncle and brother of the old thief, not only the prefect, but also in charge of the military horses of Benzhou, there are more than 30 brave generals under his command, 45,000 soldiers who can fight. He has trained 300 elites with his own hands, known as the 'Flying Divine Soldiers', all of whom are strong men selected from Shandong, Hebei, Jiangxi, Hunan, Lianghuai, and Liangzhejiang. ”

Fan Rui frowned when he heard this: "Raushzi Flying Divine Soldier, why does it sound like a Taoist method?" Could it be that this bird prefect can even use magic? If this is the case, Fan has to go when fighting this way. ”

Cao Cao frowned and calculated, and said, "How does his third way army assert?" ”

There is a division of teachings: righteousness is full of heart and wine, and the tongue is strong and hard. Pride is not afraid of the smoke, and the pride is willing to be destroyed by the drums.
