Yanzhou.
The administrative seat of Chenliu County is Chenliu County.
On the official road outside the county town, a dusty figure walked from a distance.
His clothes and shoes were worn, and a strange backpack hung behind him.
Despite his unshaven beard and shabby appearance, it was still possible to vaguely tell that he was a young man.
When he saw the three characters "Chenliu County" hanging on the city wall, the young man burst into tears.
"Oh heaven and earth, I finally made it to Chenliu alive! Big-eared thief, just wait for me!"
The young man’s name is Yang Ling.
He was originally an aspiring young man in modern society. He never expected that on the way back to his hometown in the countryside, he would wake up and travel back to the late Eastern Han Dynasty.
Nowadays, the imperial court is in darkness and the eunuchs are in chaos, which attracts Dong Zhuo to Beijing to control the imperial power.
After knowing the time, Yang Ling's heart dropped.
Be good.
These are the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms where human lives are like straw!
After calming down, Yang Ling began to think about how to survive in troubled times.
Being familiar with history, of course he knew that the world would be dominated by the three families of Wei, Shu and Wu in the future!
So after careful consideration, Yang Ling decided to defect to Liu Bei!
the reason is simple.
Liu Bei has a reputation of benevolence and righteousness. Although he worked hard for the first half of his life, it was hard work.
But as soon as you enter Sichuan, you can start a good life of drinking, dancing, playing music and dancing.
It happened that the place Yang Ling traveled to was not far from Pingyuan County where Liu Bei served as the county magistrate.
So he went straight to Pingyuan County to join Liu Bei.
Liu Bei was also very happy about Yang Ling's defection.
After all, he only has powerful generals like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei under his command, but no decent talents.
And Yang Ling's conversational skills are extraordinary, and his judgment of the general trend of the world is also extremely accurate.
Liu Bei regarded Yang Ling as his confidant and even worshiped him as his assistant official and county magistrate.
Everything was going in a good direction.
But alas, one step ahead is a genius, three steps ahead is a madman.
Yang Ling, who has modern ideas, said many words that were contrary to Liu Bei's ideas.
Over time, the two had differences and had several quarrels.
Liu Bei didn't say anything, but his hot-tempered third brother Zhang Fei couldn't stand Yang Ling.
While drunk, Zhang Fei gave Yang Ling several big dicks.
Yang Ling complained to Liu Bei, but Liu Bei actually favored Zhang Fei!
This made Yang Ling very angry!
He simply didn't do anything, he just packed his bags and went south, planning to defect to Cao Cao!
Since you, Liu Bei, are unkind, then don't blame me for being unjust!
Yang Ling thought bitterly and took off his big travel bag from behind.
He took a look at the contents of the bag and breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he didn't give these things brought by modern times to Liu Bei.
In her previous life, Yang Ling was tired of city life and planned to return to her hometown to retire early.
So the bag contained a lot of crop seeds and the like.
But before he could show it, Liu Bei was disgusted and left!
But okay, these things can be saved for later use.
Yang Ling put on her travel bag again and walked towards Chenliu County.
According to the timeline, Cao Cao at this moment should have failed to assassinate Dong Zhuo and fled back to Chenliu County, where he recruited troops and horses, and issued an edict to summon all the princes to attack Dong Zhuo.
as expected.
After some inquiries, Yang Ling found Cao Cao's military camp not far outside Chenliu County.
Although Cao Cao failed in his assassination, he became famous after this incident.
I saw a white flag with "loyalty" written on it erected in the camp, and countless strong refugees were pouring in from all directions.
Seeing a long queue forming at the gate of the camp, Yang Ling got into trouble.
With so many people queuing up, it’s probably been a long time since it was my turn!
Moreover, if he defected to Cao Cao's camp like this, he would probably be sent directly to become a cannon fodder soldier, and there would be no chance of seeing Cao Cao.
After all, in this era, one still pays attention to family background!
Got it!
Yang Ling rolled his eyes and suddenly had an idea.
He held his chest up and raised his head, walked out of the team, and walked swaggeringly towards the camp.
When everyone who was queuing up saw this scene, they were stunned for a moment, and then they couldn't help shouting,
"Why are you cutting in line?"
"That's right, go back and wait in line!"
Yang Ling turned to look at them.
"It's just a waste of time to queue up with rubbish like you!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was furious,
"Who are you calling trash?!"
"Do you want to die?"
Yang Ling raised his head and said disdainfully,
"I'm not targeting any of you, I'm saying that everyone here is trash!"
Such arrogant words that deserved to be beaten instantly angered everyone present!
Seeing that the crowd was getting angry and everyone was about to come up to beat Yang Ling, a group of soldiers wearing hard-wearing armor were running towards this side at a fast pace!
The leader was a burly military commander.
He was wearing fine iron armor, with a fierce look on his face, and a chilling aura about him.
"Who is making a noise here!"
He shouted sharply and glanced at everyone with his copper bell-like eyes.
When he saw this, the refugees who were originally making noises and dissatisfaction immediately shut their mouths and stayed where they were.
Seeing this, the general nodded with satisfaction.
The soldier on the side who was responsible for the registration told the general what had just happened.
He looked at Yang Ling and asked coldly,
"Since you are here to join the army, you should abide by the rules of the camp and line up honestly. Why are you making trouble here?"
Facing his inquiry, Yang Ling smiled, cupped her hands and said,
"May I ask the general's name?"
"This is Cao Hong, the general in front of Cao Gong's account!"
Yang Ling's heart moved and she couldn't help but look at him one more time!
It turns out that he is Cao Cao's younger brother, Cao Hong!
"It turns out it's General Cao Hong. I'm Yang Ling. I'm here today because I have something important to see Duke Cao."
Yang Ling said calmly.
Cao Hong looked Yang Ling up and down and smiled nonchalantly,
"Gong Cao is responsible for everything. Not everyone can see him."
In the Han Dynasty, the concept of aristocratic families had already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
He saw that Yang Ling's clothes were ragged and did not look like a child of aristocratic family, so he felt a little contemptuous, so he refused.
But Yang Ling didn't mean to be discouraged. Instead, he said without being humble or arrogant,
"It's better to trouble General, go and inform Duke Cao and say that I can solve his current troubles and he will definitely see me."
When Cao Hong heard this, he murmured in his heart.
Like the other country men present, they were so frightened that they couldn't speak clearly after seeing him.
The Yang Ling in front of him was not only calm and composed, but also quite confident in his words.
Doesn't he have an unusual background?
In recent days, Mr. Cao has been lamenting that he cannot recruit talents. He cannot be too rash.
"Then you wait here and report to the lord."
Cao Hong took a deep look at Yang Ling, then turned and walked towards the tent.
Seeing things developing in his own direction, the corners of Yang Ling's mouth could not help but curl up slightly.
After seeing Yang Ling dispatch Cao Hong easily, the strong men who were originally hostile to him fell silent and looked at him with awe.
