Xun You's change of tone made Cao Ang overjoyed.

Although Xun You's attitude only shows that he is willing to do things for himself, there is still a long way to go before he can truly collect his heart.

But it's hard to get started.

As long as this kid is smoothly turned to his own territory, subtly, the next thing will be much easier.

Now if Xun Yu is counted, he has two top civil servants and strategists under his hands.

Although according to the established historical trend, the uncle and nephew of the Xun family will also have to work for the Cao family in the future, but he will recruit the two of them now, saving a lot of time and cost in the middle.

At the same time, many uncertainties have been removed.

It is enough to ensure that the Cao family's forces have a high benchmark point when they start, and at the same time, when they accumulate strength, they can also be more efficient and high-speed.

This is the advantage of recruiting famous ministers and fierce generals in advance.

Perhaps because of the initial recovery from injury, after talking a few words with Cao Angyan, Xun You soon seemed a little lacking in energy and a little sleepy.

Cao Ang immediately sent him back to rest.

Then Zhang Liao was called.

"Wen Yuan, I will lead a hundred men and horses to leave Luoyang City later, and when I am not there, the soldiers and horses of the Huben camp will be under your full command."

Zhang Liao had just pushed the door in.

I heard Cao Ang say this.

I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

But then he reacted and vaguely guessed what Cao Ang was going to do, and immediately said with some concern.

"General, the situation around Luoyang City is undecided at the moment, and you will take hundreds of people out of the city, will it be a little unsafe?"

Cao Ang waved his hand.

With a smile on his face, he said in a relaxed tone: "It is precisely because there are few people that it is safe enough, and it is easy to become an ambush and target when there are more people, and I will take General Dian to set off together, safe and worry-free." ”

Such words from his own general.

Of course, Zhang Liao will not talk too much.

Just respectfully show that you understand.

"General, don't worry about going out of the city, the end will send people to guard these houses along the street, and there will be no other people from all walks of life to come to disturb, waiting for your return here."

Cao Ang bowed slightly.

When he was about to tell Zhang Liao to retreat.

Suddenly another question came to mind.

Hurriedly told Zhang Liao: "Send some brothers later, find a carriage that can be used in the city, and it will come in handy when I return." ”

This carriage was naturally prepared for Dong Bai.

It is not convenient for the eldest lady to show her head, and if she doesn't have a carriage, she will have to torture people enough if she travels with the army.

Zhang Liao didn't ask why.

Just silently promised.

……

After a hasty breakfast.

Cao Ang settled Dong Bai, signaled to everyone, and then led Dian Wei to leave Luoyang City with more than 100 men and horses, all the way to the west.

At present, many large and small affairs in the city have been almost resolved, and it is time to invite his father Cao Cao back.

Leaving his old man chasing Dong Zhuo there, it is always a little unsafe, if he has himself by his side to escort him, at least he can guarantee that he will not clash head-on with Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army.

And when out of the city.

Cao Ang deliberately went around Dongcheng.

I saw that outside the east city gate at this moment, the camps of more than ten princes were connected to each other, and they were stationed there very safely, and the soldiers were resting and recuperating, and it seemed that there was no arrangement for the future.

In this regard, Cao Ang could only shake his head.

In fact, these guys, after searching Luoyang City and making sure that there will be no other gains, can already leave.

The reason why it has dragged on until now has not left.

It's just that I'm afraid of falling into the truth.

Previously, everyone didn't chase Dong Zhuo, on the pretext that they needed to rest and recuperate, and they would make other arrangements, and they would discuss it later.

If you leave now, the news will spread and the reputation will not be good.

So even if you sleep in the tent for five or six days, you have to stay here.

When Dong Zhuo almost ran away and couldn't catch up no matter how much he thought about it, he could find an excuse openly, go home separately, and find his own mother.

……

After leaving Luoyang City.

Cao Ang went straight to Gucheng County, and then followed Gushui all the way to Hangu Pass.

From Luoyang to Chang'an.

Hangu Pass is the only way to go.

Moreover, the county towns along the way are all built on this horizontal line, and it is easier to find the large army of his father Cao Cao by following the route.

And he left Luoyang City.

Cao Ang had already released the golden eagle in the air.

Hovering all the time, scanning the surrounding scene.

After a long and constant training day and night, this little guy is now very intelligent.

Depending on the number of people it sees, and the level of threat it feels, it can make a chirp of varying length and intensity.

The wits are simply full.

This is also the key to Cao Ang's use to find people, otherwise he will rely on his hundreds of people to take the initiative to find Cao Cao, it is better to stay where he is and wait for him to come back.

After crossing the valley of the city.

After following the river for some distance to the northwest, the golden eagle, which had been soaring in the sky, suddenly let out a scream.

"Wow!"

The sound is short, but the force is not light.

This indicates that it is a small force, but there are people in this team who make the golden eagle animal instinct feel extremely threatened.

See this.

Cao Ang couldn't help frowning.

Father Cao Cao teamed up with Bao Xin and led more than 10,000 people and horses to attack, which is a fairly large force, obviously the army he saw was not Lao Cao.

But it can also make it feel extremely threatening.

It's in the middle of the wilderness.

What kind of characters can meet the conditions?

Cao Ang wanted to go around.

But after thinking about it, I felt that something was not quite right, and maybe I should go over and take a look.

Maybe it was Dong Zhuo who stayed behind and ambushed Xu Rong from all walks of life?

If it's really this guy, then he will definitely capture him, and he will have to be abducted and brought back anyway.

……

"Adian, you take your brothers, about a hundred steps behind me, don't show your head at will without my order, I'll go over quietly and take a look."

"Whoa!"

After Dian Wei received the order.

Cao Ang immediately patted the red rabbit horse's neck.

This is also a spiritual fellow.

Immediately, as if receiving an order, the four hooves immediately gathered their strength, became a little tiptoeing, and gathered all the sounds.

Looking at the strange performance of the good horse under the seat.

Cao Ang couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

If the big ghost has such a divine horse, does the robbery camp still need to be wrapped in armor?

While I was thinking nonsense.

The Red Rabbit Horse also rode through a large dense forest with its extreme speed of riding the wind and fog.

Arrived at the wilderness on the other side of the forest.

Soon, Cao Ang saw a team of well-dressed men and horses, all of them holding long soldiers, wearing light armor, and a fast horse under each seat.

And the person who is the leader, Cao Ang is even more familiar.

It was outside Yanshi County that Lu Bu and Lu Fengxian, who had fought hundreds of rounds with him!

"Brother!"

"Brother Xian?!"

The two saw each other at the same time.

They couldn't help but exclaim.

……

After returning to the trip, he motioned to Dian Wei and the others to stop in place, and they were not allowed to approach at will.

Lu Bu also withdrew his soldiers.

The two men came to the back of a hillside, looked at each other, then saluted, and then laughed with each other.

"Brother didn't retreat to Chang'an with Dong Gong, why did he suddenly appear here, don't you know that Yuan Shao and others are stationed in Luoyang, if they find out, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to get out!"

Lu Bu arched his hand at Cao Ang.

Then he said helplessly: "Xiangguo's granddaughter is gone, and it is inferred that she is likely to stay in Luoyang City now." ”

"Xiangguo asked me to quietly investigate with a small army, and if there is something to do, I will take it back, and if it has fallen into the hands of the coalition forces, I will abandon the operation."

Cao Ang was stunned for a moment.

He really didn't expect that it would be because of Dong Bai that Lu Bu, a general, would take the risk to appear here.

Just when he hesitated to tell Lu Bu about Dong Bai's rendezvous with him.

I heard Feng Xian continue to speak.

"In addition, Xiangguo also has one thing to order, that is, let me meet you no matter what, he left Luoyang in a hurry, and many things were too late to arrange, so I can only find a way to meet you and convey his meaning."

"Brother Fool thought that he might have to sneak into your tent and meet you secretly, but he didn't expect to meet him halfway now, which can be regarded as saving a lot of things for my brother."

Lu Bu said this with a smile on his face.

Obviously, he was satisfied with the potential risk that had been reduced, after all, infiltrating Luoyang City and infiltrating the camp of the princes was not the same level of danger.

……

Lu Bu's words made Cao Ang raise his eyebrows.

Now he understood why Lu Bu was being sent, only a master and fierce man like this was qualified to perform such a dangerous mission.

Cao Ang immediately clasped his fists and said, "I don't know what Gong Dong commands, but it's okay to say it!" ”

Lu Bu shook his head.

After a while of groping in his arms.

Then he handed Cao Ang a small bamboo tube.

"It's not an order, but Xiangguo asked me to bring you something, you might as well take a look first."

Cao Ang was a little puzzled, opened the sealed bamboo tube and took out a strip of cloth from it.

Expand and take a look.

There are a few lines of text written on it.

"This time the old man evacuated Luoyang, the coalition forces really did not pursue, Zi Zhen is a believer, if this trip can reach Chang'an smoothly, you can be said to have made great contributions!"

"Now that Zi Yu is acting as an internal response in the coalition army, the money and food must be indispensable, and the old man has nothing else to do, but to give two boxes of gold, and before leaving, he will be buried in Shanglin Yuan, and you can take it out."

Below this large paragraph.

It is a detailed location that records the burial sites of two crates of gold.

After reading them all.

The corners of Cao Ang's mouth were slightly hooked, and a faint smile suddenly appeared, but it quickly disappeared again.

Ha!

Dong Fatzi is still a real person!

It's not in vain that we spent so much effort to fool him, and now we finally have some output.

……

When I thought that I had helped Dong Zhuo recruit Lu Bu for a hundred catties of gold, I was flickering left and right, balancing in the middle, that was called a tired.

In this way, Dong Zhuo still hesitated, and gave it quite unpleasantly, as if he had cut his flesh.

And now I'm just writing a letter.

forcibly inserted some stories on his body, and Dong Zhuo, who was already able to fool, took the initiative to send two boxes of gold.

Cao Ang felt a little dark in his heart.

Of course.

Times have changed.

Compared with when he first came to Luoyang City, Dong Zhuo is not short of money at all, and he can even be said to be rich.

These two boxes of gold and the original 100 catties of gold, for Dong Zhuo, the difficulty of obtaining is not the same.

There is one more point besides that.

That is, Yuan Shao and the others stayed in Luoyang City and did not continue to pursue Dong Zhuo, which made the black fat man believe what Cao Ang said in the letter.

It is believed that he is indeed acting in the coalition forces.

And in order to make Yuan Shao and others stop, they did everything they could, so that Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army was able to withdraw safely and return to Chang'an City smoothly.

Considering the difficulty of this matter.

And in Dong Zhuo's view, arranging Cao Ang to muddy the waters in the coalition army, such an important task is worth his high investment.

Comparatively.

Two crates of gold are nothing.

……

Carefully roll up the strips of cloth.

After putting it in his arms.

Cao Ang arched his hand to Lu Bu, and then said with a smile: "I already know what Dong Gong said, and I ask my brother to thank Dong Gong for me!" ”

Lu Bu nodded.

The same smile was returned.

But that's not the end of the story.

After recalling for a while, Lu Bu then said to Cao Ang: "It is not easy for Zi Yu to sneak in the enemy camp, and the old man will not treat anyone who is willing to take risks and contribute to the great cause. ”

"This is Xiangguo's original words, he asked you to ask for anything other than the things on the cloth, just put it forward, and convey it to him when I go back."

Cao Ang's eyes lit up suddenly.

Dong Zhuo's guy is bright enough!

I also know that drowsiness comes to send pillows.

Originally, Cao Ang was already very satisfied with these two boxes of gold, after all, after having these start-up funds, he returned to his own territory, and he could let go of his hands and feet, recruit troops, and train soldiers.

To be able to expand his strength to another level in the shortest possible time, and directly increase the combat power of his Tiger Ben Battalion several times, these are not a problem.

Unexpectedly, beyond that.

Dong Zhuo actually had a promise.

This was a great joy for him.

Cao Ang is not a polite person, and the development of the Cao family's power is now in need of a lot of things.

In Dong Zhuo's hands, he had the most important one in his hands, and it was also what Cao Ang needed the most at the moment, so he only hesitated for a second, and then he spoke very happily.

"Then please ask my brother to explain to Dong Gong after he goes back, and the official position of my father and under me is already a little inappropriate."

"If you want to continue to speak within the coalition and have the ability to influence the entire coalition army, you must be promoted in official positions."

"So I hope that my father's position as the Taishou can change slightly, and it is best to be promoted to the pastor of a state, so that it is easy to compete with the two Yuan family sons."

"As for my words, whatever Dong Gong arranges, as long as it is still in Yanzhou."

Lu Bu bowed slightly.

Say you get it.

It's just that while firmly remembering Cao Ang's appeal, Lu Bu couldn't help but feel a little pantothenic acid in his heart.

Xiangguo will most likely agree to Brother Cao's request.

In this way, Brother Cao's father will soon become the pastor of Yanzhou, and he himself will be promoted again.

This Cao family is watching the tide rise!

is going to become the boss who governs a state.

On the other hand, he is still mixed up under Dong Zhuo's hands, and he is a tasteless Zhonglang general.

There are countless generals of the headquarters of the Xiliang Army on it, and he doesn't know where the platoon has gone in terms of seniority.

There are not many available soldiers under his hands, and in the sequence under Dong Zhuo's command, he can't be called a number at all.

It's really tasteless.

Compared with the real power of the state pastor, it is too far behind, which is unpleasant!
