Chapter 200: Cao Cao's sorrow
Chen Deng glanced at everyone and said with a smile: "At this time and that time, you just do it, if something happens, I will bear everything when I see Wu Hou." ”
The crowd did not continue to ask.
Hengjie walked to Huang Zhong's side, sighed and said, "Old general, do you remember me?" ”
Huang Zhong looked at Hengjie, nodded and said, "I recognize, you are Hengjie, the descendant who rushed to Xiangyang single-handedly and asked for Sun Jian's corpse from Xianjingzhou." ”
Hengjie motioned to the people around him to untie Huang Zhong.
Seeing this, Wei Yan and Huo Jun also walked over.
Huang Zhong, who was untied, glared at the two of them angrily and was about to rush over.
Hengjie hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "Old general, they are all hard-working people, why bother each other?" ”
Huang Zhong said angrily: "Shit bitter people, two traitors! ”
Huo Jun also lost his temper and said angrily: "Old General Huang, am I a traitor? My brother and I have been loyal to the pastor of Xianjingzhou all our lives, and my brother is still guarding the pastor of Xianjingzhou before he dies, but what did Liu Pan do? What did Cai Mao do? ”
"Can they represent the first Jingzhou pastor?"
"First Jingzhou shepherd died!"
"Killed by Cai Mao!"
"Why is Jingzhou in such a situation? It's all Liu Pan's fault! ”
"If Liu Pan had listened to me, how could Cai Mao be such a demon?"
Wei Yan sighed and said, "Old General Huang, Jingzhou is no longer the Jingzhou of the past. Now that Liu Cong is on the throne, what kind of person is he, doesn't the old general know? I'm sure that the death of Xianjingzhou Mu can't get rid of him. ”
When Huang Zhong heard Huo Jun and Wei Yan say this, the anger on his face gradually disappeared, and was replaced by a look of sadness and indignation.
Covering his face with his hands, Huang Zhong said in a trembling voice: "Hengjie, you kill me!" I can't make me surrender. If you kill me, I will not be jealous of you, but I will thank you. ”
Hengjie looked at Huang Zhong's painful appearance, shook his head and said, "I won't kill the old general, the old general used to be an official in Changsha, and he treated the people well." If the old general really can't accept the current situation, please stay by my side. When I return to Changsha, I will take you back with me, and I will retire in Changsha. ”
Inside the city of Xiangyang.
When the people heard the end of the fighting outside the city, they came out one after another.
At this time, the sky was gradually getting brighter.
Everyone ran around and asked.
The bold people even went to the gates of the city.
Nangong Yan also shuttled through the crowd, asking what happened.
When the sun rose, a roar suddenly sounded outside the city: "Listen, the people in the city, we are the righteous army of Jiangdong!" ”
"Marquis Wu has an order, once the city is broken, the people in the city will not commit any crimes, and there is no need to worry about safety!"
"Wu Hou has always been benevolent and righteous, as evidenced by Lujiang, Shu County, Xuzhou and other places!"
"Those who can cut off the heads of the heads of the four major families, or those who open the city gates, will be rewarded with ten thousand gold, and they will see Wu Hou directly!"
"Listen to the people in the city, we are the righteous teachers of Jiangdong"
The people at the gate of the city heard the roar outside the city and immediately became noisy.
"Koto called?"
"Koto is actually calling here! I heard that outside the city before, there were Jiangxia and Jiangling reinforcements, as well as Liu Pan's army! ”
"It's over, Jingzhou is gone."
"How can Koto have such a powerful force?"
"Now that our state pastor has changed, if it was the first Jingzhou pastor, how could there be such a situation?"
"How did the first Jingzhou Mu die, who doesn't know? Now Jingzhou is in such a situation, and it is also to blame. ”
"What should we do?"
"Look at what everyone does, but I have heard a lot of businessmen who come to our Xiangyang to do business say that when Jiangdong attacked Lujiangshu County, not only did it force the people to defend the city, but also opened the city gate before the war and let the people go!"
"So, the Lord of Koto is more suitable for us?"
"Who can be sure? After all, Koto and we are feuding. In the past, Sun Jian assassinated our assassin Shi, and Huang Zu also killed Sun Jian. ”
Nangong Yan listened to the discussion of the people and laughed.
After so long hiding, it has finally come to an end.
Nangong Yan quickly turned back and told the Jiangdong army about beating outside the city.
Zhuge Liang looked at Lu Yi with some shock and said, "Brother-in-law, is it because you had a plan before?" ”
Lu Yi smiled: "Sort of!" I originally came with your second sister to pick you up, but because I didn't worry about your second sister, she didn't have much opinion, so I came in person. It happened that Liu Cong visited Pang Degong, so he came up with these strategies. ”
"Although I took the risk, I finally got results."
Holding Zhuge Liang's shoulder with his right hand, Lu Yi said: "However, I can't do this kind of thing often." If you want to come out next time, I'm afraid that the civil and military officials will not allow it. In the future, you will have to rely on your second brother-in-law. ”
"Use your eyes instead of mine to help me see through this troubled world."
"Use your mind instead of mine to help me fight in all directions ahead."
Everyone looked at Zhuge Liang one after another.
Lu Shisan looked puzzled.
How old is this second brother-in-law of Wu Hou?
Wu Hou actually had such great expectations for him!
If Wu Hou is really virtuous, he can't get rid of the shackles of mortals, and his actions are also "cronyism".
Although he thought so, Lu 13 didn't dare to bring it up.
In any case, he is also a member of Wu Hou's "cronyism".
Otherwise, he would still be a chivalrous hero under Lu Su Gongzi!
It is impossible to take such a large convoy to share the responsibility of the merchant in Jingzhou.
Zhuge Liang heard Lu Yi say this, and nodded heavily.
Lu Yi smiled with relief, then found a place to lie down and said, "I haven't slept well during this time, I'm afraid they won't be able to catch up." Now that I'm relieved, I'll get a good night's sleep. You too, have a good rest! When they break the city, we'll go out again. ”
Xu Du.
South Gate of the city.
Cao Cao, Mrs. Bian, Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, Xun Yu, Xun You, Guo Jia, Cheng Yu and others watched Chen Gong with the convoy, as well as Cao Cao's second daughter Cao Jie, heading south and rushing to Wu County.
After this period of deliberation, after all, Cao Cao chose his second daughter Cao Jie as the object of his marriage with Lu Yi, the new lord of Jiangdong.
In fact, Cao Cao was originally going to send this woman to the palace to serve the Son of Heaven.
Before, he had already sent his eldest daughter in.
However, he still doesn't feel very secure.
The eldest daughter's character is somewhat weak, and she can't resist in the face of the irascible Son of Heaven.
But now that Jiangdong has sent Chen Gong to arrive, he can only take care of Jiangdong's side first.
Watching Chen Gong and the convoy disappear into the sky, Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief.
The alliance with Koto is completely formed.
In a short period of time, he can let go of his hands and feet and prepare to deal with Yuan Shao, who is about to go south.
That's right, Yuan Shao is about to go south!
Just half a month ago, he received information from Youzhou that Yuan Shao's army, which was originally besieging Yijing, had broken the city.
Gongsun Zhan was surrounded by Yuan Shao's army under the platform!
Gongsun Chan had to wait for death.
Yuan Shao's unification of the north is irreversible.
Now, Yuan Shao's generals Yan Liang, Wen Chou and others are gathering troops, and they will go south after Yuan Shao's order.
Cao Cao himself also received a handwritten letter from Yuan Shao.
In the letter, Yuan Shao persuaded him to submit to obedience, and said that even the two had been playmates since childhood, and they could not neglect their original friendship because of power.
What's even more odious is that Yuan Shao said that as long as he is obedient, he can return to Qiao County for retirement, and he will be prosperous and rich for a lifetime.
When Cao Cao saw Yuan Shao's letter, he laughed angrily.
Yuan Shao not only wants to go, but also gives up completely and becomes a rich man!
So how many times have I almost died over the years, what is it?
What are these brothers who followed him to the north and south?
He couldn't forget Dian Wei and his eldest son who died in Wancheng.
For their sake, he will never submit to Yuan Shao.
It's just that what makes him even more angry is that the Chinese military officials of the DPRK, facing Yuan Shao's current situation, began to keep silent one by one.
Even, the manpower he arranged has monitored many civil and military ministers secretly sending people to send letters to Hebei.
Cao Cao's back tooth socket was almost crushed.
This bunch of traitors!
If I, Cao Cao, have the upper hand, I will kill you all!"
But, he knew, no.
Now the situation is dangerous for itself.
Once you can't control your temper, not only will your hard-earned foundation be ruined, but I am afraid that your wife, sons, daughters, and brothers will all die.
In addition to the pressure from Yuan Shao, the DPRK and China have also been on the verge of action recently.
Cao Cao glanced at Liu Bei not far behind him, his face full of disappointment.
He regarded him as a confidant and gave him everything he wanted.
He was defeated by Lu Bu, and he sent people all the way to greet him, and he showed the Son of Heaven that he was a man with no foundation as General Zuo, leading Yuzhou Mu and commanding his hometown of Qian County.
I gave everything I could!
But instead of being grateful, the people under him actually found out that he was still in cahoots with those who were ready to move in the court, and it seemed that he was ready to take advantage of this crisis to put himself to death.
Cao Cao sighed a little tiredly.
I think that at the beginning, Dong Zhuo rebelled in the imperial court, and he just raised troops to fight thieves in order to help the Han family.
Now, I have come to this point, but I have to persevere in order to protect my family and brother.
Once he loses his power, I am afraid that these people in the DPRK and China will not want to cut themselves with a thousand knives.
It is also difficult for his own family and brothers to survive.
But they didn't think about it, they really forced me Cao Cao to be anxious, my Cao Cao was ruthless, I didn't want anything, and I returned to Yuan Shao.
Do these people really think that they can still have a good life today?
Especially the immature and stupid Son of Heaven!
In the past few years, he has lived a good life in Xu Capital for a long time, and he seems to have forgotten his experience of trembling under Dong Zhuo, Li Dao, Guo Ci and others.
Seeing Cao Cao staring at the direction in which Chen Gong was leaving, Mrs. Bian reminded softly, "Husband, it's time to go back." ”
Cao Cao turned around at this time, mumbled, and turned around to leave.
A small official rode a war horse and galloped from the city.
Cao Cao stopped.
It is a small official under Xun Yu, and Shang Shutai is responsible for sorting out information.
The little official stopped not far from Cao Cao, jumped off the horse quickly, held a bamboo tube in both hands, handed it to Cao Cao and said: "There are 100,000 urgent people from the direction of Jingzhou!" ”
