Cao Cao stood up from the bed and stretched his stubby limbs, looking very satisfied. Look around you, a beautiful woman who is less than thirty, with a graceful figure and infinite charm, is wrapped in a quilt, her hair is scattered and lying on one side. The exposed skin is as white as gelatin, she is really beautiful.
This woman was Zhang Ji's late wife, Zhang Xiu's aunt, and Cao Cao's new concubine. Although Cao Cao did not believe in evil, he still adhered to the moral standard of "do not sleep with anything unruly" and first accepted Zou as his concubine. , lifted her status as a widow, and then performed the courtesy of Duke Zhou with her, making love with her. I have to say, this Zou's tastes really good! Although Zhang Ji did not live long, he was still quite nourished when he was alive.
But now, Zhang Ji's "moisture" has belonged to Cao Cao and Cao Mengde!
In addition to reaping the benefits that originally belonged to Zhang Ji, Cao Cao also made good progress in plotting against Zhang Ji's nephew Zhang Xiu. Although Zhang Xiu had offered his aunt in a very respectful manner a few days ago, his honest face was full of smiles, and there was no hint of dissatisfaction. But Cao Cao still felt that Zhang Xiu was suspicious... Such a beautiful aunt gave it away as she said, so how could this not be suspicious? Zhang Xiu must be up to no good!
In addition, Zhang Xiu has not yet handed over the family members of his soldiers! If he didn't have any evil intentions, why didn't he hand over his family? Handing over your family does not mean that you have no second heart. If you don’t hand over your family, you must have second heart! Regarding this matter, Cao Cao is too experienced! Didn't he just refuse to hand over his family to Yuan Shao?
So while taking in Zhang Xiu's aunt, Cao Cao began to win over the Xiliang generals under Zhang Xiu... first starting with Zou's natal family, and then other Xiliang generals. This went very smoothly! Zou's natal family voted for Cao very smoothly, but their strength was not very strong.
Later, Dian Wei recruited a Qiang and Hu general named Hu Che'er for Cao Cao, who was a powerful faction. This man was originally Zhang Ji's most powerful general, and he was brave enough to win his army! There is also a group of Qiang and Hu warriors under his command who are extremely brave and brave, and they are called the "Xian Deng Camp"!
Such fierce generals and elite soldiers will definitely vote for Ming Zhu... Ming Zhu pays a lot of money!
Zhang Xiu was weak. If he had followed Liu Biao, he might still have some money in his hand, but he surrendered without a fight... Now he could hardly even afford his military pay. It is normal for a strong man like Hu Che'er to find another enlightened master.
So Cao Cao immediately called Hu Che'er and gave him a plate full of gold... When the Hu Che'er took the gold, his eyes really shone! This money-grubbing look is real at first glance, and it is also in line with the nature of the Xiliang Qiang soldiers-that group of people are profit-seeking masters, and they will work for whoever can afford the money!
After Hu Che'er collected the money, Zhang Xiu came to beg with a grimace the next day, saying that the morale of the army was unstable and there were many fleeing - obviously, Hu Che'er was inciting the athletes to cause trouble! This Zhang Xiu was really stupid. He also proposed to move some of the unstable Qiang and Hu soldiers to Cao's camp... Wasn't this giving away the army in vain?
Cao Cao was almost amused when he heard the news... He had been dealing with all kinds of people for so many years, and this was the first time he met such a fool, which made him even more suspicious!
So last night, before he enjoyed the Zou family left by Zhang Ji, he asked Zou family about Zhang Xiu's personality, and the answer he got was that Zhang Xiu is such an honest person... There are others in the Xiliang army. His nickname is Zhang Laoshi.
Zhang Ji also saw that he was honest, so he called him out from his hometown to help manage the army, but he never thought about letting him take over. Although Zhang Ji is Zhang Xiu's uncle, they are about the same age. Who comes first on the road to Huangquan? Don’t even know!
As a result, I never expected that Zhang Ji was "cursed to death" by the little emperor...
After finding out the details of Zhang Xiu, Cao Cao was completely relieved.
So he is already planning his next move after getting rid of Zhang Xiu... Nanyang Governor Cai Mao is currently stationed in Zhangling County in the south of Nanyang County. He should be allowed to move the county back to Wancheng, but Wan The commander-in-chief of Nanyang must be appointed by the General's Office, and the General's Office must also garrison troops in Wancheng.
As long as the Cai family, the number one wealthy family in Jingzhou, is controlled, Liu Jingzhou will be unable to do anything... And without Liu Jingzhou as a foreign aid, the little emperor of Luoyang can only rely on him, Cao Da General!
When Cao Cao was sitting on his bed, thinking about how to reach the pinnacle of his life by holding the emperor and commanding the princes next step, there was a sudden noise outside... Who dared to make noise in the military camp?
Cao Cao listened carefully and found that it seemed to be Qiang nonsense and he couldn't understand it. But he immediately became alert. Could it be that Hu Che'er's men had mutinied? Do you think you have too little money...or did Hu Che'er keep all the money in his own pocket?
As soon as Cao Cao thought of this, his bedroom door was knocked open with a bang. Zou, who was sleeping, was also awakened and let out a scream, but Cao Cao reacted faster and had already pulled out the knife from under the pillow. Ready to kill someone. But when Cao Cao looked intently at the door, he realized that the person standing at the door with a frightened expression and gasping for air was his own son Cao Ang and Cao Zixiu!
Cao Ang was seen standing there with his helmet pierced and his face full of horror. He was still holding a sword in his hand and pointed at the two people on the bed, gasping for breath and unable to speak. He must have been running all the way from somewhere!
At this time, there were already bursts of shouts of death and the sound of weapons clashing outside. Cao Cao's face changed drastically, and he suddenly jumped out of bed. He ran to Cao Ang with a knife and bare feet, and asked loudly: " Zixiu, is Zhang Xiu rebelling?"
Cao Ang just nodded, with a mixture of nervousness and admiration. He finally took a breath: "Father, the emperor has calculated this... Zhang Xiu rebelled, and the Qiang who moved into our army's camp yesterday All the barbarians rebelled. They suddenly launched an attack this morning and caught our army by surprise. Now the camp is in chaos. The north gate of the camp has been lost...Father! It's all your fault for not listening to the emperor. If I don't stay away from the widow, a disaster is coming! Now I will also suffer a bloody disaster..."
Cao Cao was also fooled now... Zhang Xiu actually dared to rebel! Why did those Qiang and Hu people rebel with Zhang Xiu after receiving the money? Are these Qianghu people who don’t love money? What a hell! Also...that little emperor's crow's mouth is too powerful, right?
"Father...run away!"
When Cao Ang saw Cao Cao dumbfounded, he shouted loudly: "Now the camp is in chaos. Qingzhou soldiers are running around everywhere, scrambling for their lives. If we don't escape, it will be too late!"
Although Cao Cao's army was large, it was mixed with good and bad. Especially those Qingzhou soldiers who were born as Yellow Turban thieves. They were many in number, but their discipline was poor, they didn't listen to orders well, and their training level was not high... And Cao Cao used them There is nothing you can do, because these old yellow scarves are not only powerful in numbers, but they are also good at sticking together! If you push them too hastily, you are afraid that they will form a group and cause chaos, so you have to send them away, and you are also afraid that they will gather together and return to their old ways and continue to be yellow turban thieves! Moreover, without these Qingzhou soldiers, the size of Cao Cao's army will shrink sharply...
Thinking of the chaos in Qingzhou, Cao Cao had a headache, but he still refused to give up and asked sharply: "Where is my evil coming? Where is Xu Zhongkang?"
"Captain Dian led hundreds of people to guard the main gate of the inner village to resist Zhang Xiu's Xiliang soldiers. Captain Xu has already assembled hundreds of soldiers to protect us and rush out immediately!"
Cao Cao gritted his teeth and looked back at Zou: "Can you ride a horse?"
Zou is also a sassy and agile Xiliang woman. At this time, she has already passed on her clothes, and she is still wearing a riding suit - and she wore it in front of Cao Ang! When she heard Cao Cao's question, she said with certainty: "I have been able to ride a horse since I was a child... I will definitely be able to accompany the general and rush out!"
"Okay!" Cao Cao nodded heavily, "Let's go together!"
Cao Ang glanced at Mr. Zou and didn't say anything else. He knew his father's nature and would never vent his anger on a widow...
So, Cao Ang and Zou helped Cao Cao put on his military uniform and armor, and then the three of them went outdoors together. Xu Chu was already waiting outside the door with Cao Cao's Jueying horse, while Cao Ang's personal soldier led two horses and was waiting for Cao Ang. A family member of the Zou family also prepared a strong horse for her. Cao Cao's Nephew Cao Shun was also waiting to run away with two horses.
At this time, Zhang Xiujun's shouts of killing and the sound of war drums were getting louder and louder, coming one after another... It seems that Dian Wei can't withstand it for too long?
At this time, Cao Cao had nothing to say, so he could only get on his horse, and then rushed towards the south gate of the camp with Xu Chu, Cao Ang, Cao Shun, Zou Shi, and a group of guard tiger soldiers.
The camp was already in chaos. Qingzhou soldiers were everywhere shouting and running away. Most of them were heading towards the south gate of the camp. Someone saw Cao Cao and shouted: "Mr. Cao, the emperor told you to stay away from widows...why didn't you listen?"
When Cao Cao heard this, his heart sank!
This group of Qingzhou soldiers are all based on the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans... They are almost the same as the Baibo Yellow Turbans of Yang Feng and Han Xian!
But now Cao Cao doesn't dare to argue with the Qingzhou soldiers who have transferred from the Yellow Turban bandits... It's important to escape!
The south gate of Cao Jun's camp was close to a gate in Wancheng. Cao Cao and others rushed to the gate with countless Qingzhou soldiers. Like a flood, the troops sent by Zhang Xiu to stop were all destroyed. They rushed away. There was also fierce fighting at the city gate. The man guarding there was the short and capable Yue Jin. His troops were not the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, but the first troops among Cao's troops to seize the battle. They were extremely elite, so the Xiliang army's surprise attack was unsuccessful. The city gate is still in the hands of Cao Jun!
Le Jin saw Cao Cao running over with a large group of Qingzhou soldiers, and quickly ordered people to open the city gate and let Cao Cao out.
Cao Cao had just rushed out of the Wancheng gate, and before he could take a breath, he suddenly heard someone shouting in his ear: "The cavalry... the Xiliang cavalry is coming!"
Immediately afterwards, there was an urgent sound of horse hooves. Cao Cao turned around and saw that his heart that had just been relieved was in his throat again!
He only saw more than a thousand Xiliang cavalry who had bypassed the Wancheng city wall and rushed towards him... These were Xiliang cavalry who were good at riding and shooting! Let them catch up, then the explanation is really here!
At this time, the Xiliang soldiers also saw Cao Cao's flag and began to shout loudly on horseback.
"Cao Cao was discovered!"
"Don't let Cao Cao go..."
"Those who deserve to be killed will be rewarded with tens of millions of dollars and be made captains..."
