Cao Cao crosses Wu Dalang

Chapter 694 Lu Baijiu Picks Up This Merit

"Brother, do you know that there is a bird man named Luo E in the Xijing army?" Ma Ling asked suddenly.

Cao Cao thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Isn't Zhang Bangchang's favorite general, what's his nickname 'crocodile bully'? Hey, could it be that the crux of the problem lies in this person?"

Ma Ling stomped his feet and sighed: "Oh! This Luo E, he was originally a military officer in the south of the Five Ridges. He became famous for killing the boss a crocodile. Cai Jing heard about it and told the old official as an interesting story. The old official is a frivolous person. Therefore, Luo E was summoned to Beijing, and he was given the nickname of "crocodile bully" by himself, and he stayed in Bianjing as the gatekeeper of Lijing Gate."

Old Cao said in amazement: "In this way, his sponsor is Cai Jing, and his benefactor is Zhao Ji. Hey, Zhang Bangchang took the wrong medicine? How can he be regarded as a confidant?"

Zhang Bofen suddenly said: "Scared? Is this guy actually a disciple of Cai Jing? Marshal Wu, listen to my report. Back then, my father, Zhang Shuye, was impeached by Cai Jing and thrown out of office. The mansion was so messed up to relieve the anger, and passed by the Lijing Gate, but this person persuaded him with good words, saying that Cai Jing had a high position and power, and this move would be even more detrimental to my father. My brother just gave up and regarded this Luo as a good friend .”

Zhang Zhongxiong continued: "That day when the Liao army entered the city, it was Luo E who reacted quickly and closed the gate of the inner city in a hurry, but there were few soldiers in the inner city and they couldn't guard it, so my father persuaded them to retreat to the imperial city. E made the decision and led the nine generals in the inner city to retreat into the imperial city. They held on for many days, and all the other generals died in battle, and most of the soldiers were lost. They had no choice but to let Zhang Bangchang go to negotiate with the Liao people, saying that we would not let us go. When we went, they burned the imperial city and scattered it, so the Liao army let us go out of the city."

Zhang Bofen wept and said: "Poor my father, who fought hard for days, fell ill as soon as he came out, and finally got to Zhenjiang. The old faint king caught him and put him in prison. He died in a few days. My brother was sad and hated. This Zhang Bangchang came and said to me. The brothers are Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. Since the Supreme Emperor has no way, let him go to Luoyang to protect the small official's house, so he went to Luoyang."

Zhang Zhongxiong also said: "I don't know how Luo E got the news, so he rushed to say that he wanted to go with him. Zhang Bangchang said he was Zhao Yun, so he sent him to Luoyang. Later, the two of us entered the tent of the Martial Commander, and we still left him in the prime minister. The government listens to it."

Cao Cao nodded: "I understand. At the beginning, Zhang Bangchang was not valued in Zhenjiang. He angrily voted for the new emperor and became prime minister. Most of them took the merits of your Zhang family's father and son's bloody battle as his own. He was afraid of being leaked by you, so he recommended him to death. Come to me. As for Luo E, he probably concealed his background, so that Zhang Bangchang felt that he could control it, but he didn't expect that he was not with him at all. Even if he came to Luoyang, he was probably instructed by Zhao Ji, Cai Jing and others to do it on purpose .”

He said, shaking his head and sighing: "Zhang Bangchang doesn't know people well, so I don't use the kind and good guys like the two brothers, but use those with unknown origins. It shows that his talent is limited. Isn't it just that there is no such thing as misfortune and fortune, but only people. Call yourself?"

Ma Ling clapped his hands: "Brother really sees thousands of miles away! After this incident, it is exactly as what my brother said. The old emperor's favorite prince is the third son, Zhao Kai. Before that, he sent Kui Xiangyang to Luoyang. The family took them away, and forced the little emperor to write an edict of guilt on the grounds of losing Bianjing. At the same time, the surnamed Kui also contacted the Ninth Prince Zhao Gou and this Luo E in private, ordering them to wait for the opportunity to take the opportunity. thing."

Cao Cao applauded and laughed: "I told you how Zhao Xiaojiu took the initiative to take charge of city defense affairs when he sent out troops, but he was waiting here! The little emperor also defended him and asked Zhang Bangchang to be his deputy, but unexpectedly Zhang Bangchang relied on his love. The general was originally a pawn of others."

Ma Ling nodded: "That's right! My brother attacked Zhengzhou from here and was about to attack Bianliang, so he launched an attack there together. Luo E stabbed and killed Zhang Bangchang with his own hands, and together with Zhao Gou made trouble, engulfing the little emperor and other princes, queens and concubines. Fly to Zhenjiang."

Everyone listened to his royal internal strife, and the accidents happened one after another. Their expressions were astonished, as if they were listening to a commentary.

Liu Yanqing frowned and said: "In this way, the new emperor has issued an edict of sinning himself, and the Supreme Emperor has soldiers and horses in his hands. Now that he has moved to Jinling, I'm afraid it's really about moving the capital and restoring the government."

When Cao Cao heard this, he looked up to the sky and laughed, his smile was full of joy.

Everyone wondered: "Why are you laughing, brother?"

Cao Cao couldn't point his fingers, and laughed loudly: "I only laugh at Zhao Ji's lack of strategy and Cai Jing's lack of wisdom. Now that the Zhao family is in troubled times, they still dare to exercise power like this. They really treat the world's heroes like grass and trees. Hahahaha, he is Zhao's inheritance. The Nine Emperors have lived in the country for a hundred and sixty years, although Zhao Ji's evil policies have frequently occurred, after all, the hearts of the people have not yet dispersed, and I want to replace Zhao, so it is inevitable that I will talk about it, but now he has given it to himself, isn't it the destiny?"

Everyone was thrilled to hear it, but couldn't help their blood boiling, and suddenly heard Lao Cao shouted: "Where is the time, my brother!"

Shi Qian came out in response, cheering up, with his small chest standing tall: "Brother! Brother is here!"

Cao Cao murmured, "Brother! I want you to do a major event to change the world, I don't know if you dare!"

When Shi Qian heard the words, the blood in his chest boiled, and he shouted: "Why did you say that, brother? Since I followed my brother, although my ability is insignificant, but my brother's banner points to mountains of swords and seas of fire, have you ever taken a step back?"

Cao Cao looked at him for a moment, and saw Shi Qian's face was full of resoluteness, and that funny face was clearly as serious as iron, and he couldn't help nodding: "Good brother! But it was a slip of the tongue for my brother. It's just that if there is a slight difference in this matter, it will be thousands of dollars." The result is cut by knife, so my brother hesitates."

Shi Qian took a step forward, raised his head and laughed loudly: "Hahahaha! Brother, my little brother is a thief who roams the rivers and lakes and is scolded by everyone. If he wants to see the scenery above the nine sky from the real dragon, how can he not risk his life? Brother, There is a saying, "Life will be a feast, and death will be a marquis, and a man will be rewarded for his life!" But it is good for the elder brother's great affairs, even if it is cut by a thousand swords, the younger brother will also be happy!"

Lu Junyi, Yuan Lang, Mu Hong, Zhang Jun and the others couldn't help admiring his small body and majestic imposing manner. Fang Baihua even shouted: "What a 'drum on the flea', he is really extravagant and generous. Some people in the world are not convinced Damn it, my old lady slapped him with her mouth!"

Everyone laughed when they heard this, but Niu Gao and Li Kui stared at each other with big eyes, wondering: Scared?At this time, one set of one set will compete with our poet saints and poets?In addition, does Li Niangzi stand side by side in four dimensions?
But Cao Cao slapped his leg and said loudly: "Good! Good brother, you have been a brother for a long time, and you have made meritorious deeds many times. If this matter is successful, the title of Marquis will not be enough to pay you—"

Old Cao pulled the time away, showing a cunning and sinister look: "You go to Jinling for my brother, go to see Zhao Huan, and tell him to move his mind. Be sure to write a piece of imperial edict for Zen position to me! Tell him clearly that if he is willing to surrender To take the throne, to protect the safety and wealth of his lineage for my brother, and to be a happy and happy king! Otherwise, hehe, the day his father is restored will be the day when he, Zhao Huan, will die."

Everyone was stunned when they heard what Lao Cao said.

Yuan Lang suddenly scratched his head and laughed, "Brother is so domineering! The rebellion was just to grab the throne, and my brother actually wants to force the emperor to give up the throne himself."

A gleam flashed in Liu Yanqing's eyes, he suddenly stepped forward, bowed down and said: "Marshal, this matter, the general is willing to move the general to do it together at any time."

Cao Cao looked at him in astonishment: "Oh? Brother Liu, this is a business that can be smashed to pieces. Shi Qian's lightness skill is unparalleled in the world. If you are careful enough to handle this matter, you still have a chance. If you go and reveal a little, you don't have to die. .”

Liu Yanqing gritted his teeth and said harshly: "Marshal, but you don't hear: If you don't gamble, you don't know your luck is high? Old brother, at my age, I fight with the marshal, how much military exploits can I make? Poor my brilliance boy broke his leg again—— Hey! He If you don’t break your legs, you’re not a general at all. Therefore, for the sake of your children and grandchildren, Lao Liu is willing to gamble—"

But seeing this old Liu, he pointed to the sky and shouted: "Let's bet that a real dragon will be born in the chaos of the world, and you are the real dragon, Marshal!" Live, or die, Liu has worked with him for a long time, if he is willing to sacrifice his life for the Zhao family, Liu will be the first to disbelieve! Three bets that my old Liu family will have good luck and do this for the marshal. Also fight for a descendant of blessing."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Shi Qian: "Brother, your ability is naturally unparalleled. Just persuading Zhao Huan to give up his position is not an easy task. You must know that with this edict, Zhao Huan will be infamous for thousands of years. If you are as timid as a mouse, you may have to think too much? If you take Lao Liu with you, you will be able to show some strength."

Lao Cao and Shi Qian looked at each other.

Cao Cao said slowly: "What my brother Liu said is not unreasonable. It's just that this matter must be based on the change of time, so whether it is appropriate or not, brother Shi, you can see for yourself."

Shi Qian said with a smile: "What's there to say? My younger brother's knowledge and eloquence are not comparable to that of Old General Liu. He is willing to take this strange risk, and I have seen his loyalty to my brother, so I will go with him."

He said it grandly, but in fact, they just looked into each other's eyes and knew Cao Cao's intention: Take him!On the one hand, he is indeed a helper, and on the other hand, if the incident fails, wouldn't the weight and reputation of Liu Yanqing, a veteran of the Western Army, be far superior to your "flea on the drum"?With him on his back, wouldn't the chances of escape be greatly increased?

This is exactly the day when wild geese were hunted and finally pecked by wild geese, Liu Yanqing was full of calculations, but unexpectedly, two old Cao Shiqian had already included him in the blink of an eye.

After talking about this matter, Lao Cao looked at Zhang Jun, Ling Zhen, Zhang Bofen, and Zhang Zhongxiong, and showed a smile: "You generals, just heard what Wu said, what do you think?"

The four of them looked at each other, and when Lao Cao just said "I want to replace Zhao", the four of them stared wide-eyed.

Lao Cao is now the king of Wei, the commander-in-chief of the world's soldiers and horses. He captured Youyun, destroyed Xixia, and defeated Liao. His achievements are outstanding. Since the founding of the country, there is no one comparable to him. Brother lived here, and his heart of disobedience was clearly revealed, but now that he really revealed his ambition, the few people were still shocked for a while.

Zhang Bofen and Zhang Zhongxiong looked at each other, and they bowed down: "Marshal Wu, my brother will follow you to fight, so happy, I obey you in my heart, the emperor of Song Dynasty was mean and ungrateful to my father, we would rather follow you."

Cao Cao didn't expect these two idiots to understand first, and helped him up with a smile: "Although Shu Yegong is sad to pass away, Zhang's family has your own brother. Get up, and call me brother from now on."

Ling Zhen also bowed: "Little brother is willing to listen to elder brother's orders, and dare not disobey."

Cao Cao said happily: "With you'Booming Thunder', thousands of troops and horses can be won." General support.

Zhang Jun hesitated for a moment: "Marshal Wu, I have a question to ask at the end."

Cao Cao nodded and motioned for him to say.

Zhang Jundao: "Nowadays there are wars between the north and the south. I don't know how the Marshal will make a decision?"

Cao Cao said: "Jurchens are beasts, and they are the great enemy of the Chinese Han people. Tomorrow, I will send my whole army to the north to meet Liangshan and fight against Jurchen."

Zhang Jun nodded secretly, but said in his mouth: "Aren't you afraid that the crane and the clam will fight and the fisherman will benefit, but the Zhao family will take advantage of it?"

Cao Cao sneered and said, "I won't hide it from you. In my eyes, the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty are no different from chickens and dogs! Besides, there are Mingjiao heroes in the south of the Yangtze River. Forgive Zhao Ji for his ability to resist the great trend."

Zhang Jun sighed: "At this time, the throne is at your fingertips, but the Marshal would rather take the risk to fight the Jurchen. He is ambitious and worthy of the hero. Zhang Jun is not talented, and he is willing to drive for his brother."

Cao Cao laughed and helped him up: "Brother Boying, I want to restore the majesty of the Han and Tang Dynasties, so I don't have to worry about not having a place for you to use your strength."

At the moment to straighten people's minds, Lao Cao asked Ma Ling to return to Jiangnan, and helped Fang La to raise the banner of Mingjiao again. Shi Qian and Liu Yanqing disguised themselves and went to Jinling Mansion to act. While recuperating here, he led more than people, together with Deng Yuanjue and several generals, across the Hebei River, collecting the cities occupied by the Liao people all the way, and chasing the Liangshan army.

After walking like this for three days, they successively recovered Weizhou and Kaide mansions. Just as they were about to go to Daming mansion, suddenly a group of soldiers and horses jumped out from the stabbing, about five or six hundred people, and blocked the way from afar. Old Cao's soldiers and horses seemed to be in shock.

Everyone in Cao Cao looked at him and saw him holding the banner of the Song Army. They couldn't help but wondered: "This place has been occupied by the Liao Kingdom for a long time. How can there be a small group of Song Army? Which brother should go and ask about it."

Before the voice fell, Li Kui shouted: "Don't fight, I, Tie Niu, will be a scout!" After he flattered, the horse rushed out, and when he arrived at the opponent's line, he looked at the four of them and shouted: " Hey! You four are sneaky, what are your backgrounds, if it is the Song Army, come with me to see my brother Generalissimo, if it is a Liao dog, stand still and wait for me to take off your clothes and kill you."

Among the four people, a man with scars on his cheek said angrily: "Hey! Where did this barbarian come from, so rude? Let him eat my flying fork!"

Another man with a tiger head tattooed on his neck also shouted: "You are rude, watch out for my flying gun."

The two of them were about to get angry, and the other two scholars and craftsman-like leaders stopped him quickly, and one of the scholars shouted: "You black man, don't be rude, let me ask you, you are the soldiers sent by the imperial court to Ping Liao horse?"

Li Kui stared and said, "Whatever it is, what if it isn't?"

The scholar hurriedly said: "If you are an officer and soldier, don't misunderstand me. I am here from the officers and soldiers of Dongchang Mansion and the Jeju Rebel Army. They are here to make things difficult for the Liao Kingdom. This general with a scar on his face is Ding De, the deputy general of Dongchang Mansion. Sun, who is known as the "Zhongjianhu" is the one who swallowed the tiger's head on this item, and he is also the deputy general of Dongchang Mansion. People call him "Hua Xianghu" Gong Wang, and Xiaosheng is Xiao Rang from Jeju. ’, this is Xiaosheng’s friend, the ‘Jade Arm Craftsman’ Jin Dajian is. General, can you name me?”

Li Kui heard him babbling about signing up, but he had never heard of it before. He felt depressed early, and shouted loudly: "Say my name, I will scare you! I am the number one under the command of the world's military commander Wu Dalang." People call me 'Black Whirlwind' Li Kui! You are a scholar, don't think you can be arrogant just because you know a few words, I also have a nickname, 'Qingzhou Poetry Immortal'!"

A few people were surprised and said, "Wu Dalang? Could it be that Qingzhou Jiedu envoy Wu Zhiwu Jiedu? When did he become the commander-in-chief of the world's soldiers and horses?"

Li Kui proudly said: "What do you country people know? My brother is not only the general of the world's soldiers and horses, but also the king of Wei. When we wiped out the Dajin Kingdom, the emperor's old man will make my brother a big brother if he can't say it." The emperor too."

Seeing that Li Kui was insane, the four knew that he was a reckless man, but they didn't dare to underestimate him when they saw that the army behind him was neat and tidy. It's been a long time, can you come and see me?"

Li Kui said happily: "You are very sensible, let's go, I will take you to pay homage to my brother."

This is exactly: Disha Tiangang with a flag, a game of chess from the south to the north, the heroes of the Central Plains work together, and sweep the crowd like a mat!
