Chapter 560: Cao Wei's counterattack starts from the Valley of the Kings -
Born in Suzhou and Hangzhou, died and buried in the north!
Beibi Mountain, this place where more than 40 dignitaries and dignitaries have been buried since the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
This burial place for emperors, nobles, and prominent figures of all dynasties flocked to it.
Now... In Cao Cao's eyes, he placed more hope on him.
His counterattack against Wei Wu's hegemony will start from this "Valley of the Kings"-
Rather... Under his arrangement, a group of "evil thieves" disguised by the beggars committed serious crimes, and then fled here.
Nominally, Li Lian is leading people to search and arrest, but secretly, he is... It is necessary to take the opportunity to determine the hiding place of Ma Jun and "Wei Feiqiu".
There are many trees in the mountains in the north, and the emperor's tombs look around, under the cover of the mausoleums, even the flying ball of Jingzhou may not be able to find this hidden Wei workshop in the sky, because of this, Li Lian must find the exact location, and then before the Wei flying ball is formed, he will release the news first, so that the flying ball of Jingzhou will be burned so completely.
Especially that Ma Jun, if you don't blow him up...
Li Can't Sleep-
It is precisely because of this that Li Lian cooperated with the beggar gang and carefully planned an action, just to be able to search the mountains logically, but... For a few days... Not to mention Ma Jun and the workshop, Li Lian didn't even find a single nose hair of Ma Jun!
"Ugh..."
With a faint sigh, Li Liang was a little depressed, but his eyes were still wide open, and those eyes were extremely bright, like the brightest morning star in the night sky, as if from the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain, from the dense jungle to the bottomless ravine, no inch of land could escape his vigilant scrutiny.
It's just that... Even so, nothing was found.
"Damn!" Li Lian whispered...
"Sir...", the school affairs officer of the school office noticed that Li Ming's face was not very good, so he asked with concern: "Mr. said it was hateful?" But did someone mess with Mr.? ”
Oh...
Li Lian hurriedly gathered his thoughts, and then said: "I mean these thieves, secretly contacted my Great Wei officials in Luoyang City, but when they were arrested, they hid in this deep mountain, what a cunning fox, this northern mountain is so big?" There are many ravines during the period, how to find this? Alas... Alas... It's just that I've worked hard, but you've been working with me for a long time. ”
With Li Cong's words, a school official hurriedly surrendered his hand, "Mr. Li is the head of the school office, the king of Wei, and the person who is important to the general Xiahou, and it is really our honor to be able to go to the soup for Mr. Li... Mr. Li was too polite. ”
"Okay..."Li groaned heavily, and then he waved his hand.
The figure of this dry man once again merged with the darkness around them, and they were like agile black panthers, tirelessly and tirelessly searching every part of the Beibi Mountain, waiting for the appearance of the "prey" with all their attention.
The only difference is... The prey in the eyes of these school affairs is like an abyss in the eyes of Li Lian-
…
…
"No way!"
"I disagree!"
No one would have thought that under the imperial tomb of Liu Wei, the young emperor of the Han Dynasty, there was the most important workshop of Cao Wei.
More than 100 flying balls have been made and placed in the Imperial Tomb, just move them to the open space outside, and... Do a simple splicing, you can soar south in the sky, and the horn of Cao Wei's counterattack will be sounded!
But...
Ma Jun, this Cao Cao's concubine and horse captain, this Cao Cao's incomparably important young talent, this chief craftsman who is now concerned about the future of the Great Wei.
His eyebrows were rarely condensed...
With a dazed, with hesitation, even his cheeks were full of defiance.
He looked at his wife, Cao Cao's granddaughter Cao Ying, and his tone increased again and again.
"If the imitation of this flying ball was made to kill civilians, then... Then I... I... Doing this will inevitably cause the destruction of lives, and I will become a criminal through the ages, spurned by thousands of Li Shu! I... I can't allow that to happen! ”
Ma Jun looked extremely excited.
The reason why this is so is because, just now, Cao Ying conveyed Weng Weng Cao Cao's order here.
- "The flying ball will immediately rise into the air, burn the city of Xudu, counter violence with violence, burn the city with flames, and leave no people and animals behind!"
Of course, the "people and animals are not left" in this sentence is not only the slaughter of the Jingzhou soldiers and the Guan family army, but also the most lethal bombardment of those who turned their backs on Cao Cao and chose to stay in Xuchang.
Looking at Ma Jun, who was extremely excited, Cao Ying clenched his teeth: "You calm down!" At the beginning, Guan Lin was not the same as the burning city, and it was not the same as the destruction of the souls! ”
"That's different!" Ma Jun retorted: "Guan Lin's burning of the city is because Lord Taiyue moved the people to the interior, the two armies fought, and the damage to the soldiers and horses was inevitable. But at this moment... Great Wei's flying ball lifted off and burned Xuchang City, that... In the city of Xuchang, there are 300,000 people... But... Only... Madame, you forgot... These people were the people of Great Wei just two months ago, and they still live in the same city as us! ”
Ma Jun's words provoked Cao Ying's contemptuous sneer: "For the handsome, the most taboo thing is the benevolence of women, this is an order given by Weng Weng, we have no right to refuse, we can only obey..."
Cao Ying's words just fell...
"Stomp, stomp..."
The rows of solid and heavy footsteps have already sounded under this imperial tomb, because it is underground, the echo is resounding... Exceptionally clear.
- "This is..."
Without waiting for Ma Jun to think about it...
Cao Ying has already answered his confusion, "It's the Tiger Army, Weng Weng... The Tiger Ben Army is here..."
When speaking of this, Cao Ying suddenly became a little worried about Ma Jun, "Deheng, this world... Many things are involuntary, forced by the times, if... If it weren't for Guan Lin Guan Yunqi, Weng Weng would have been making up for it all these years, making up for the mistakes made by the excessive killing in those years, but now... Weng Weng is too tight, Weng Weng has no choice, and neither do you and me... For Da Wei, everything is for Da Wei! ”
With Cao Ying's words...
With a "bang", the magnificent gate of the underground palace of the Young Emperor's Mausoleum was pushed open.
Immediately afterwards, Cao Cao appeared in front of Ma Jun and Cao Ying.
At the age of sixty-two, although he can no longer have a straight waist like when he was young, he walks like the wind, and he remains his own as always... The majesty that Cao Cao would have.
Like the traces of the years, the setbacks of the past, victory without arrogance, defeat without cowardice... The precipitation of these experiences is all over his face.
It is also these things that have made him the supreme and dominant position he has now.
"Weng Weng..."
"Big... The King..."
Cao Ying and Ma Jun opened their mouths almost at the same time.
saw Cao Cao's big hand, and it was obvious that Cao Cao listened to the conversation between them just now.
But he didn't reproach Ma Jun, but signaled Ma Jun not to speak.
Because, he was afraid that in his first thought, he would be suspicious, as if he had killed Lu Boxuan in the past, and then ruthlessly killed this grandson-in-law-
"These flying balls..."Ma Jun didn't seem to understand Cao Cao's meaning, and he also wanted to persuade Cao Cao to take back his fate...
But he didn't speak until he spoke.
"Captain Horse, please here, the king said, Captain Horse has been working hard for days, he should go to rest for a few days, recuperate for a few days... Here, the king will take over personally! ”
"But..."
"Please..."Ma Jun's words were suppressed by Xu Chu's words.
Xu Chu's tiger eyes stared at him coldly, and this sense of oppression made Ma Jun unable to say a word.
At the same time, Cao Cao had taken over the Great Wei Workshop in this underground palace.
He asked a lieutenant who had been training here for many days, "How long have you been training?" Maybe fly this flying ball into the air? Traveling thousands of miles? ”
"The last general has been training for more than a month, and it is no problem to manipulate the flying ball and fly to Xuchang!"
Cao Cao was very satisfied with the lieutenant's answer, and he then asked: "That lonely is asking you, how long does it take to fly from here to Xuchang City?" ”
"One day is enough!"
The lieutenant replied without thinking.
Cao Cao's eyes narrowed further, narrowing into a slit...
He immediately ordered: "Okay, early the day after tomorrow, Lone will hear that tomorrow night, Xudu City will be reduced to a sea of purgatory fire, and the lives will be ruined, and people and animals will not be left behind——"
This...
The lieutenant was stunned, and then again, they... It's been training for a long time, but I've never been to Xuchang, and I'm even more on such a ferocious mission.
However, in the face of King Wei's hot eyes, the captain hurriedly surrendered his hand.
"Rest assured, the king will be... I will not fail in my mission—"
Cao Cao bowed his head, but he felt that this lieutenant was extraordinary, so he added a question: "What's your name?" Where are the people? ”
"The last general..."The lieutenant hurriedly replied: "The last general is a native of Ji County, Tianshui County, his name is Jiang Yi, and his name is Zhongyi... Originally Jicheng Gongcao, I heard that the prime minister recruited soldiers who were proficient in craftsmanship, and the little one volunteered... After being selected to bring his son here, he has been training with his children for more than a month... Proficient in the operation of this flying ball! It's the instructor of all the flying ball soldiers here..."
"Carrying a child?" Cao Cao keenly noticed the "son" proposed by Jiang Yi...
Jiang Yu hurriedly beckoned to his side, "Boyo, haven't come to see King Wei yet"...
At this time, a fifteen-year-old young man who looked handsome and delicate, but there was a heroic spirit between his eyebrows, and his eyes were sharp, walked quickly, and bowed to Cao Cao, "Jiang Wei greets the king..."
This young man is Jiang Wei Jiang Boyo...
Having said that, Jiang Wei in history followed Jiang Yu, the father of Gongcao and the guard general of Ji County, as a soldier defending the city when he was twelve years old.
The Tianshui generation often had Qiang invasions, and the wars continued... Jiang Wei resisted with his father.
Over the years... The bitter cold experience of war has constantly sharpened Jiang Wei's character, and even if he is only fifteen years old, from the perspective of aura, he is like a veteran who has been on the battlefield for more than ten years.
"Okay..."
Cao Cao carefully examined the father and son in front of him, "Hahahaha..." he laughed and said, "Tianshui, I have been there alone, where the wind and sand are everywhere, and where there is war, it is precisely this environment that can hone people's willpower and tenacity the most!" ”
Speaking of this, Cao Cao's hands patted Jiang Wei and Jiang Wei's shoulders respectively, and then said solemnly, "This battle has been won, and I will hand over this flying ball soldier of Great Wei to your father and son——"
As Cao Cao's voice fell.
Jiang Wei hadn't reacted yet.
With a "snap", Jiang Wei knelt down directly, and while he hurriedly pulled Jiang Wei's pants, he solemnly arched his hand and said: "The last general will not fail in his mission!" ”
Jiang Wei came back to his senses and knelt on the ground, but... But he didn't say a word.
On the other hand, Cao Cao, he finally stared at the two people in front of him, "Hahahaha..." he laughed and said, "Go, go, wait for the news of your victorious return——"
…
…
The night is like a huge black flannel, enveloping the sky and the earth.
Li Li, who was busy all night, finally got nothing.
The surrounding school affairs, because they had just inspected a ravine, gasped for breath and scolded these thieves..."Damn, those rebels... If Lao Tzu catches it, he will definitely have them broken into thousands of pieces! ”
"yes, it's so tightly hidden... Anyway, the exit of the entire Beibi Mountain has been blocked, and we have been looking for a few days... I'm afraid that half of Beibi Mountain has also been checked, right? Where is it? Where? ”
Anger or complaining...
These words that came in his ears from time to time could not affect Li Ming's mind, and one of his thoughts was especially searching... Endless searching.
He had a faint feeling in his heart that if he couldn't find the location of this workshop again, he was afraid... I'm afraid something big is going to happen.
"Could it be... These rebels fled to the vicinity of the Emperor's Tomb, and if they were... It's a place we can't search these days! ”
"It's possible, although the Central Plains and the north are now the world of our Great Wei, but the Son of Heaven is still there, if there is no will of him, he will disturb the emperor's tomb privately, I am afraid that the king will be severely punished by public opinion, but I dare not wait, those traitors... How dare they go! In this way, it is the emperor's mausoleum... It's the best place to hide. ”
"The Emperor's Tomb... Hehe, there are dozens of imperial tombs? If we search one by one so aimlessly, even if King Wei allows us to go in, I'm afraid we won't be able to search for a year and a half... Sure enough, this imperial mausoleum... The most suitable place indeed! ”
- Imperial Tomb?
When the discussion of the school officials became more and more intensive, when these two words were chanted, Li Yan felt that his heart was suddenly "ding".
- "Is it the Emperor's Tomb?"
But in just a moment, he felt... No way?
Who would put a workshop in the dungeon?
Wait a minute...
It was precisely because of this thought that Li Yan trembled all over his body, and he was a little creepy... He's a little messy!
- "It's the Emperor's Tomb! It must be the Emperor's Mausoleum, and it's the Mausoleum of the Han Emperor!'
That's right, Li Lian completely figured it out...
Cao Cao was so suspicious, he must have been afraid that the location of the workshop would be leaked, so he would be the first to suffer an air attack, so to judge, it must be underground... Because it's safer underground!
However, when the fire burns to a certain extent, it is not safe to say that it is underground, even in the rivers, lakes and seas, which has been corroborated countless times in the previous fire attacks of Yunqi.
So... Where is the safest?
Imperial Tomb! The underground palace of the Han Emperor's Mausoleum!
Because no matter what, even if Guan Lin found the location of Wei Gongfang, he would definitely not be able to use a flying ball to burn the tomb of the Han Emperor...
This is the Mausoleum of the Han Emperor!
Whether it is Liu Bei, Guan Yu, or Guan Lin, the cause they are practicing is the Zhongxing Han Dynasty!
How could they have burned the tomb of the Han Emperor?
"It's here, it must be here, the workshop and Ma Jun are hidden here..."
Li Lian is almost sure...
Because of this determination, he suddenly turned his head, and his eyes quickly looked at the distant tomb of the Han Emperor, and at the same time, he was still thinking about it in his heart.
- "Even if you find it?" So what? can't be burned, this Han Emperor's mausoleum... I can't burn!'
- "What a Cao Cao, he is giving Yunqi two cups of poisonous wine!"
Li Yan was still palpitating about Cao Cao's calculations, but at this moment, at the tomb of the Han Emperor, countless fires suddenly lit up, because the distance was far and the firelight was secret, but... Because his attention was here, Li Cong was still keenly aware of the firelight.
- "This is..."
Just when Li was puzzled, the mountain peaks in the distance lit up with red light, it was small at first, but as it gradually rose into the air, it became bigger and denser...
The light illuminates the surrounding mountains, and gradually their outlines are clearly outlined, and the trees and grass in the distance... It seems that they are all dyed with a layer of red brilliance under the moonlight, as if they are in a world of daylight.
As the light spreads, spheres slowly rise from the mountain peaks.
They are similar in size and shape, they are like giant beasts that have awakened, and their light and shadow quickly cover the entire mountain...
It's a flying ball!
It's a flying ball that Li Cong is all too familiar with!
It's from Wei Gongfang, from the flying ball written by Na Ma Junshou-
"Oops... Oops..."
The air around Li Yan seemed to freeze, and he watched as those flying balls soared into the air, flying into the clouds, hundreds... Fly towards the south.
Think about it with your toes, and know where they are going.
So fast!
The action of reverse Wei is so fast!
Oops! If this flying ball really flew to Xuchang, then tens of thousands of people in Xuchang...
It seems that because Li Lian was too much of a situation, a group of school officials around him noticed him and hurriedly asked, "Mr. Li?" Oops? What's the suck..."
Li Cong is shocked again...
But as these school affairs looked at the sky in his eyes, all of a sudden, they were all stunned.
More than 100 flying balls, covering the sky and the sun... Mighty, they seem to be playing a passionate breaking song... They're heading south!
…
…
The next evening...
Xuchang City, Guan Yu just arrived here today, he brought more than 10,000 Guan family soldiers, and now these soldiers are under the city, outside the city gate, standing and waiting.
It was Guan Yu who returned to Xuchang again, and many familiar scenery jumped in front of him.
Speaking of which, I was in Xu Du twice before, once with my brother, my brother Liu Bei broke with Lu Bu, Cao Cao supported my brother, defeated Lu Bu, and returned here together after experiencing the death of Lu Bu in Baimenlou.
At that time, the elder brother was still recognized by the Son of Heaven as the emperor's uncle.
And the later Xu Tian hunting!
Guan Yuyou remembered that when Xu Tian was hunting, he watched the soldiers of the three armies shouting long live to Cao Cao, and his Qinglong knife was almost about to move.
After that, leave... Return!
He returned to Xuchang again, and that was the story of his Guan Yu's so-called "being in Cao Ying, and being in Han".
Guan Yu is a nostalgic person...
Even if he is now in the same boat as Cao Cao, when he returns to Xuchang again, it will inevitably remind Cao Cao of his past of "a small banquet in three days, a big banquet in five days", and "a gold on the horse, and silver on the horse".
Even, for Guan Yu...
If he had met Cao Cao first, perhaps... Will he be impressed by Cao Cao's charm?
Of course, Cao Cao will also be impressed by his charm!
What's more than Guan Yu?
There is another person who has infinite memories of Xuchang, Xu Shu... He is a native of Yingchuan, Yingchuan is a county, and Xuchang is just a county seat under the rule of Yingchuan County, but because of this, Xu Shu and Xuchang have more memories.
Also, he was looking for his mother... After returning to Xuchang, Cao Cao treated him with courtesy.
Yes, Cao manipulated everything badly, but he has a soft spot for "righteous people"...
Guan Yu is like this, Xu Shu is like this, Zhang Liao is like this-
"Yun Chang is thinking of the past!"
Facing the huge banner of "Han" at the head of the city, Xu Shu asked Guan Yu...
Guan Yu pondered for a while, and then his cold face showed a little emotion, and he asked Xu Shu rhetorically: "Aren't you the same, when you come here, you will inevitably think of some things and some people... None of that matters, though, it's important that... Now, because of Wu'er Yunqi, we have successfully returned here... And will continue to go north! ”
With Guan Yu's voice suddenly turning cold in the second half of the sentence...
Those things and those people seem to have become a thing of the past.
Xu Shu didn't speak, but squinted and looked at the closed city gate...
Speaking of which, someone has already gone to pass the word, because it is dark night, and it is a place like Xuchang that meets the enemy's border, and it is ten o'clock in the middle of the night, if you want to open the city gate, you must get the consent of Fu Shiren, the general who guards the city here.
Sure enough, after a quarter of an hour.
Fu Shiren climbed to the top of the city, and after seeing clearly that the person who came was Guan Yu, he immediately laughed "hahaha", and he shouted at Guan Yu: "Yun Chang, you are here!" I've heard that Soochow has been pierced by you... I can't compare to you, and after Xiangyang, I beat Xinye, Fancheng, Wancheng, and Xuchang... Ah... It's still a little bit inferior to you after all! ”
Don't look at what Fu Shiren said is slightly inferior!
But the words are quite squeathered!
It's just a dazed horse—
However, Xu Shu downstairs couldn't help grinning at the corners of his mouth, smiled faintly, and then whispered to Guan Yu, "This is what is mentioned in "Warring States Policy"... Is the fox fake tiger? ”
"Haha..."Don't say it, Xu Shu's words directly made Guan Yu happy, he first replied to Xu Shu in a low voice, "The fox is fake and the tiger is mighty, is he Fu Shiren relying on my son to play prestige?" Hehe, whatever... Let him Fu Shiren continue to play prestige, it is best to subdue the Central Plains, to recover the northern border, if he can do it... That fox fake tiger is also a great achievement! ”
Don't say it, Guan Yu's words made Xu Shu think so.
At this moment, Guan Yu raised his eyes and said, "What?" Is General Fu going to turn Guan away? ”
"How dare you? How dare you? Fu Shiren hurriedly ordered: "Open the city gate quickly, open the city gate quickly..."
While commanding, he said unconsciously: "Yun Chang is here?" Why do you need to report it to this general again? Have you forgotten the letter of your lord? The lord wrote... Yun Chang is his second brother, Yide is his third brother, but I, Fu Shiren, am his fourth brother! Yes... Hahahaha... Open the door, open the door, open the door for my second brother! ”
Boom...
As always, it's still a!
Today's Fu Shiren is a little floating-
It's just that, at this time... Whether it is Fu Shiren, who is stationed here and is quite nervous, or the newcomers, Guan Yu and Xu Shu, who are humble and kind...
They didn't know that it was in this capital, in the darkness of the night...
Cao Wei's most ferocious counterattack is about to start-
A catastrophe is coming—
