Chang Xuan
Among the thieves in the hinterland of the Central Plains, if the biggest, the most cunning, and the most ferocious thief leader, if Chang Xuan claims to be the second, then no one dares to be the first.
This person used to be the Xuzhou clan, quite a bit of power in the territory, is the head snake of the land of the hegemonic side, originally with Zang Ba, Sun Guan, Wu Dun, Yin Li with the Taishan thief, scourge of one side, quite a climate, and later attached to Lu Bu.
After LΓΌ Bu's death, Chang Feng and a group of Taishan thieves accepted Cao Cao's surrender, and Chang Feng was appointed as the county guard of the East China Sea, still leading his people.
However, Chang Feng received the reward from the imperial court, but he did not think of the way to forge ahead, but regarded his fame as dung, and still regarded himself as a thief in his daily life.
This person is capricious, after being registered as an official by Cao Cao, the thief's heart is still immortal, and he has repeatedly given birth to signs of wanting to rebel, but he has never had a chance, so he is temporarily dormant.
In history, Chang Feng was a capable guy, and under Cao Cao's rule, he was able to rebel and rebel three times, until he finally surrendered to his old friend's camp due to overconfidence, and he was killed by Yu Ban.
It's a great thing to be able to play him three in and three out in Cao Ying!
It can be seen that Chang Xuan is a sinister, cunning, and scheming character.
Even Zhuge Liang's "Later Teacher's Table" specifically mentioned this person: "Cao Cao's five attacks on Chang are not dominant, and the four Yuechaohu Lake cannot be achieved." The implication of the words shows that Chang Xian has a good mind and is old and spicy.
................
It is said that Yuan Shang went to the cottage of Jiuli Mountain under the guidance of Chen Lan, but he saw that there were many wooden houses on it, more than 100 grass houses, a group of two and two, three and three and one together, the momentum was majestic and quite large-scale.
In front of the main fence in the mountains, there is a wide flat land, suspected of being a school field for thieves and bandits, at this moment, but seeing that the dense thieves are all gathered in it, living on two sides, the barriers are clear, and the two sides are waiting for each other, holding each other.
On the left side of the square, a woman with picturesque eyebrows, heroic spirit, and outstanding demeanor is Lu Lingqi, the leader of the thieves in Jiuli Mountain.
Among the reckless men on the right, I saw that it was led by a big man in a green robe with a bold smile on his face, which must be Chang Xuan.
Chang Feng was half-draped and half-wrapped in a dark green robe, with a wide hem that dragged straight to the ground, covering his feet, and on his bare head, only a handful of half-black and half-yellow hair grew on each side, his eyebrows and beard were also a mess, and his eyes like copper bells were also full of blood red and terrifying.
At first glance, Chang Xuan's appearance is strange, his body is magnificent, and he does look like a heroic man from a reckless background.
But Lu Lingqi, who was opposite him, knew very well that when dealing with the person in front of him, if he was not careful, he would probably not even have a little bone dregs left.
Behind that heroic and even rugged smile, there is a hideous ruthlessness and murderous intent that is terrifying in the hearts of the direct teaching.
Yuan Shang and his entourage were temporarily ambushed, and he and Chen Lan quietly blended into the crowd, hiding among the thieves behind Lu Lingqi, and secretly looked at Chang Xuan.
Just when Yuan Shang peeked at Chang Xuan, Lu Lingqi had already opened her mouth and said coldly: "The letter sent by Chang Gong a few days ago, the little woman has already carefully checked it, and I don't want Lao Chang Gong to come to invite me in person today, I am really ashamed!" It's just that although Changgong's proposal is reasonable, the little girl and Liu Bei have some enmity, and they can't be invited by Changgong, but I'm afraid that Changgong is going to go in vain today, and the little woman is really sorry. β
When Yuan Shang heard this, he was immediately curious, what did Chang Feng on the other side want to invite Lu Lingqi to do? Why is Liu Bei's old boy involved?
Chang Xuan heard Lu Lingqi open his mouth to refuse him, his face remained unchanged, but he smiled and said: "Leader Lu is too polite to say this, in fact, speaking of it, today I dared to worship the mountain and dare to invite, but it was the old man's rudeness first, and Leader Lu's words made the old man's face have no place to put it." β
Lu Lingqi's face was inconvenient when she heard this, and said: "Changgong doesn't need to be so polite, if there is nothing else to do, please go down the mountain here, and forgive the little girl for not sending it." β
Chang Feng slapped his thigh suddenly, and said with a smile: "Good temper! Good toughness! It's just a mold carved out of the same mold as you back then! I want to be commensurate with your father and brother back then, what I admire most is his straightforward, bold and uninhibited character! Seeing my niece have the style of a father today, I am really relieved, very good, very good! β
Lu Lingqi frowned in her heart, and said with hatred in her heart: "What this old thief said sounds arrogant, but in fact, he is pretending to be crazy and stupid to take advantage of me, which is really hateful." β
Chang Feng didn't seem to be aware of Lu Lingqi's disgust, and said: "But good niece, bold and arrogant, free and easy, but the hatred of killing your father is not shared, and your niece can't be rash, you need to think carefully, the old man is here today and invites you to rely on Liu Bei and fight against Cao Thief, which is really the best way for you to take revenge!" Liu Bei is a descendant of the Han family, and he has the respect of an imperial uncle, and he is also inseparable from Cao Cao, so why should his niece care about the momentary anger and have reservations? How can he be worthy of Lu Wenhou, who died tragically under Cao Cao? In the future, when you go to Jiuquan, what face will you see with you? β
Lu Lingqi said bluntly: "Changgong, I respect you in the past and my father had an old relationship, so I don't want to say too much, although the battle of Xiapi was Cao Cao's army, but Liu Bei also helped, on the white gate upstairs, it is a big-eared thief who made my father die tragically, speaking from the heart, although my father died at the hands of Cao Cao, but the big-eared thief has no virtue and no righteousness, it is even more hateful, you invited me to join forces with Liu Bei today, but I used my father to pressure me, but if I really responded to your words, I will really have no face to see him after death...... What's more, I, Lu Lingqi, have always been used to acting alone, and I don't want to be a puppet in the hands of others, and I hope that Changgong will understand, and I will not blame him. β
Hearing this, Chang Xuan turned his head and said to the left and right: "What kind of puppet is that puppet, what does it mean?" β
Behind Chang Xuan, a thief leader said respectfully: "The puppet is a puppet who plays juggling." β
Hearing this, Chang Xuan suddenly realized, and said: "Niece, what you said is not right, Lao Tzu doesn't say it's a wooden thread, and he doesn't even have half a rope for his mother, Lao Tzu doesn't play puppetry!" β
Yuan Shang, who was hiding in the crowd, couldn't bear to laugh bitterly, although he couldn't see Lu Lingqi's current appearance, he could also think that her little face at the moment must not be very good-looking.
Sure enough, but listening to Lu Lingqi slowly spoke: "Changgong, this girl is not in the mood to play with you, don't treat me as a three-year-old child, you invited me to vote for Liu together, just to increase your own weight, and in the future, there is a reason to merge the people under my command, although I Lu Lingqi is not wise, but I am not stupid to that point....... There is no need to talk about the matter of voting for Liu, so please go down the mountain for Changgong. β
Hearing this, Chang Yan didn't move, but just raised his hand and touched the bright head, and said, "Hehe, that's really not going to work........ Niece, I have a word of conscience to you, for this matter, the old man has made the worst preparations, today you have to agree, you have to agree, you have to agree! After all, in this Yu, among the reckless, thieves, and chivalrous people in the Xu Land Realm, the old man is a leader, since he has made the decision to vote for Liu and abandon Cao, then the thieves in this area have to do what the old man wants! If you can't even drink the order, even if you are attached to Liu Bei in the future, how can the old man gain a foothold in his heart? Niece, you said that is not the reason! β
Lu Lingqi's face suddenly turned cold when she heard this, and she said coldly: "What Gong Chang meant, is it hard to come?" β
Chang Feng smiled coldly, and said, "You said yes, then it's her mother!" Lu girl, you only have two ways to go today, one is to follow the old man's wishes and lead the crowd to obey Liu Bei, and the other is not to follow the old man's wishes, then don't blame the old man for not remembering the old relationship with your father, slaughtering you first, and then co-opting your people. It's a bit of a hassle, but the result is the same! β
Lu Lingqi didn't answer when she heard this, she suddenly drew her sword, and the people and horses behind her also showed their weapons one after another.
Chang Xuan's side also took out the guys one by one, and the two sides were swords and guns, and if they didn't agree with each other, they would be angry.
"Wait a minute, you don't need to rush to fight, let me speak a few words first!"
But seeing Yuan Shang squeezing out of the crowd and standing beside Lu Lingqi, he looked at Chang Feng a few times meaningfully, and said, "You are Chang Feng?" β
When Lu Lingqi saw Yuan Shang, she couldn't help but be surprised: "Why are you here?" β
Chang Xuan had already decided to kill Lu Lingqi, but when he saw that the other party flashed out a handsome young man in armor, who didn't seem to be like a thief, he couldn't help but be a little uncertain, but he didn't kill the general immediately.
looked at Yuan Shang carefully for a while, but saw a dirty smile on Chang Xuan's face, and said to Lu Lingqi: "Oh, niece, niece, you really let the old man worry about you, you didn't inherit much of your father's martial arts, and the spirit of men and women has learned everything, a cottage of Nuoda, and actually raised such a handsome male pet, which is really enviable." β
Lu Lingqi's face turned red when she heard this, and she was about to fight with Chang Feng when she went up with her sword, but she was stopped by Yuan Shang and some thieves behind her.
Yuan Shang turned his head with a smile on his face, looked Chang Feng up and down a few times, and asked again: "Your Excellency is one of the heroes of Mount Tai in the past, and now the Shou Chang Feng of Donghai County?" β
Chang Feng snorted, glanced at Yuan Shang proudly, and said, "How about Lao Tzu!" What kind of kid are you? Dare to come out and call Lao Tzu by his name! β
Yuan Shang said with a smile: "It's good to say, under the surname Yuan, from Hebei, is now living under the command of Liu Yuanjun in Runan County, because of the old with Miss Lu, so today I went up the mountain, unfortunately I happened to hear that you want to invite Miss Lu to join Liu Yuanjun, and I feel that I can be an introduction, so I came out for a while, and I hope not to blame if I am rude." β
Chang Xuan's heart suddenly tightened, and he remembered the rumors in Yan and Yu recently, saying that it was an important person in the Yuan clan in Hebei who led his troops to steal to Runan, and joined forces with Liu Bei to make trouble in southern Henan.
Now seeing that the kid is dressed in white armor and has a good appearance, and Lu Lingqi, who is also on the side, heard him report his name, his face was unmoved, thinking that he already knew the identity of this person.
If it is really the important town of the Yuan clan in Hebei, then it is really not easy to offend.
Thinking of this, he saw Chang Feng respectfully hugging his fists, and said boldly: "It turns out that Your Excellency is the son of the Yuan family in Hebei, and Lao Tzu is not thoughtful in his words, and I hope that Yuan Gongzi will not blame." β
"Good book, good talk."
But seeing Yuan Shang waved his hand, he said with a smile: "I came to the mountain at the right time, I heard that Changgong seems to have invited Miss Lu to rely on Liu Yuanjun and fight against Cao thief, but unfortunately Miss Lu has already attached herself to our Hebei a month ago, and brushed Changgong's face, it's a pity, I hope that Changgong will not blame Miss Lu, if you are angry, you might as well count it in my Yuan family's account in the future, okay?" β
When the words fell, they saw that Yuan Shang's soldiers and soldiers who were waiting outside the school field could not bear it anymore, and they showed their weapons one after another, rushed into the school field, and joined forces with Lu Lingqi and others, and confronted Chang Feng from afar.
Chang Xuan's complexion suddenly changed!
It's not that the hundred soldiers brought by Yuan Shang are terrifying, in my heart, not to mention a mere 100 people, that is, a thousand, and Lu Lingqi's soldiers and horses together, his surname Chang is still not afraid, but this small group of soldiers on the other side is well-equipped, copper helmets and hard armor, and the momentum is also obviously different from the ordinary thieves, obviously they are all regular soldiers from their own army.
Looking at its momentum and breaking its anger, Chang Xuan believed in Yuan Shang's identity a little more.
Secretly said, although the name of the Yuan family is loud, but after all, it is far away in Hebei, and it can't fight with the Central Plains Eight Poles, Chang Xuan doesn't need to be afraid of him, how can he just be ready to betray Cao Cao recently, and he really doesn't want to provoke the Yuan family anymore in a hurry, otherwise the two most powerful princes in the world have offended him, and he still wants to mix in the world?
Although Chang Feng was born as a thief, his head is not stupid, and he will never do such a thing that outweighs the losses.
Thinking of this, Chang Feng immediately arched his hand at Lu Lingqi, and said with a smile: "No wonder my niece is reluctant to join Liu Bei with her old husband, it turns out that she has climbed the high branch of a famous family in Hebei?" Hey, hey, whatever! The old man is not difficult to force people today, so he will resign, if the virtuous niece goes to Hebei and makes a career and meets in the future, you might as well properly bring the old man, so it is not in vain for me and your father to have a brotherly relationship! β
Lu Lingqi's face instantly became extremely ugly.
When Chang Xuan said this, he was about to turn around and lead the crowd away, but he heard Yuan Shang behind him open his mouth to stop him and say, "Chang Gong will wait for the meeting!" I haven't finished talking yet, what are you anxious about? β
Chang Xuan turned his head strangely, looked at Yuan Shang indifferently, and bared out a mouthful of yellow teeth: "What?" Don't you still want to keep the old man with the surname Yuan? Although the old man is not from a famous family, he is not a person who can be slaughtered! If you want to fight, you will fight, if you want to come, you will come! Compare soldiers or generals, even if you draw the line, the old man will follow! β
Yuan Shang shook his head and said: "Changgong misunderstood, I don't have this intention, I just want to ask you, since Your Excellency wants to rebel against Cao, why don't you join Hebei, but instead attach yourself to Liu Bei, is it that in the eyes of Changgong, the fourth and third dukes of the Yuan family in Hebei are fierce, and they are not as good as Liu Bei, who lives in a county?" β
When Chang Xuan heard this, his face suddenly sank.
