Cao Wu and Zhuge Liang looked at each other. Zhuge Liang had already noticed something was wrong and reminded: "Many celebrities were taken away from the Xiangyang Celebrities Conference and have now arrived in the camp."
Half of these celebrities had official positions. Although Cao Cao forcibly brought them here, he only hoped to change these people's talkative style and make them closer to reality, so he did not ask questions and just followed the battle in the military camp. .
Only then did Cao Wu understand that it seemed that some of these people didn't like him and wanted to cause trouble.
The last time, Cao Pi organized hundreds of officials to come to Beifu, and the incident ended with Situ Zhao Wen, who supported Cao Pi, committing suicide.
This time, I don’t know who is causing trouble again. If there is no one to back him up, how can a mere school captain dare to offend his clan members?
Just as he was about to ask a question, he heard an angry voice coming from the camp gate.
"I am Zhang Yun, the commander of the defense tonight. Who asked you to stop General Beifu? Open the door quickly!"
The captain didn't panic at all and responded: "Tonight the envoy from Jiangdong is coming. In order to prevent the enemy from committing fraud, the Prime Minister has ordered a late night curfew and the military gates will not be opened!"
Zhang Yun stamped his feet angrily, but Cao Cao's army was far inferior to those soldiers and ruffians in carrying out orders and prohibitions.
Don't say that he is just a partial general. Even if he is a general, if he wants to be a captain, he must have a reason. Jiangdong's envoy came tonight, and the prime minister did order to be on guard against enemy sneak attacks, so what the captain did was in line with the military order.
There was a conflict at the camp gate earlier, but now the security has been tightened and a group of people has changed. These people are not his subordinates. As soon as he, Zhang Yun, surrenders to the general, there is nothing he can do.
There was clearly an opportunity to curry favor with General Beifu before him, but he couldn't do it, and Zhang Yun was furious.
Zhuge Liang had already prepared a speech, intending to refute the captain from a legal point of view and prove that it was okay for him and others to enter the camp late at night.
Before they could speak, they heard Zhang Yun, who was anxious, shouting at them from inside the camp gate: "General Beifu, I am Zhang Yun. This matter is not what I want. I will report it to the Prime Minister and ask him to make a decision." !”
Cao Wu heard their conversation, but his attention was attracted by the words "Envoy from Jiangdong", and he quickly asked: "General Zhang, which envoy from Jiangdong is here?"
Zhang Yun was startled, but he didn't expect that Cao Wu was asking this question instead of asking for guilt. He immediately said: "The one who came is Zhang Zhao, Sun Quan's chief historian, the head of Jiangdong's civil servants!"
Hearing Zhang Zhao's name, Cao Wu frowned and asked, "Who else?"
"There are also Gu Yong, Yu Fan, and Lu Ji, all well-educated scholars from Jiangdong. In order to welcome them, Military Advisor Xun invited most of the celebrities who came today to avoid any verbal conflicts during the dinner. The prime minister also ordered the entire camp Martial law, so the gate of the military camp is sealed!"
Zhang Yun explained patiently, trying to persuade Cao Wu to understand and stabilize Cao Wu, so that he could see Cao Cao again and find a solution.
Cao Wu's frown deepened.
Fortunately for Zhang Zhao, he saw Gu Yong almost every day in Caisang City. Gu Yong and Yu Fan had always wanted to discuss writing poems with him, and on the day they escaped from Caisang City, he even scolded Lu Ji. Fight once.
After escaping from the mulberry picking city, he almost always rushed as fast as he could. Even if there was a delay in the process, he was still much faster than ordinary people.
In other words, it is impossible for Gu Yong, Yu Fan, and Lu Ji to rush to Zhou Yu's army now, let alone go on an envoy!
The envoy from Jiangdong is fake!
It's a scam!
The figures of Zhou Yu and Pang Tong flashed through Cao Wu's mind. These people were full of clever tricks. Seeing that they could not forcefully break through the Five-Toothed Ship, they might have hatched a new plan!
Although he still didn't know what the specific conspiracy of Zhou and Pang was, now that he understood the key, he could no longer sit back and watch.
He nodded to Ah San and Ah Liu, then looked at the captain and asked, "What's your name?"
The captain snorted and didn't answer.
Suddenly, there was a "swipe" sound, and the red feather on the captain's head was cut off by a sharp sword.
It was Ah San who suddenly drew his sword.
Her sword was so fast that by the time everyone came to their senses, her sword had already returned to the scabbard on her back.
The guards were so frightened that they retreated repeatedly. The captain turned pale with fright and said tremblingly: "The enemy is attacking, release arrows!"
However, Ah Liu calmly took a step forward and reprimanded: "My general is the Prime Minister's brother, and he has been greatly favored by the army. If you dare to shoot arrows, are you planning to rebel?"
When the soldiers heard the words "Brother of the Prime Minister" again, they looked at each other and trembled, no one dared to speak.
Cao Wu shouted: "When Shangguan asks you, answer honestly, what is your name?"
The captain thought that he also had a backer, so he braced himself and said, "I have military orders..."
Before he finished speaking, suddenly, blood started to pour from his neck, but a big head had already crossed the camp gate and hit the back of the camp gate. Gululu rolled in front of Zhang Yun.
When he landed, the captain's eyes were still open, as if he couldn't believe that he was killed at the gate of the camp where millions of troops were stationed.
Cao Asan's sword was sheathed without bloodshed.
Zhang Yun was as if he had fallen into an ice cave. He had long heard that General Beifu was arrogant and domineering, but he did not expect that Cao Wu would become so domineering.
A captain Zhang Yun didn't dare to deal with turned out to be nothing in Cao Wu's eyes, and he would kill him as soon as he asked! Not even a reason was given. In his heart, Cao Wu has become the most untouchable person in Cao Ying.
And those soldiers were even more afraid. Prime Minister Cao Cao was like a myth in the army. No matter which state you came from, even the newly surrendered Jingzhou Army, no one dared to disobey the Prime Minister.
The current situation is that a school captain claimed to be doing things according to the Prime Minister's instructions, but was killed on the spot by the Prime Minister's brother. They were trembling with fear, not knowing who was right and who was wrong, they didn't dare to take action, and they didn't dare to leave. In the middle of winter, they were all sweating.
Cao Wucong casually took a piece of jade pendant from his arms, showed it around, and said, "I have the Prime Minister's secret plan for me. This man refuses to reply, which is tantamount to treason. Are you going to die like him?"
The soldiers looked at each other. At their level, they didn't know what the prime minister's secret decree was, and they didn't know how to do it.
Zhang Yun's voice came from behind the camp gate, and he scolded: "Don't open the door to General Beifu! Don't you even believe in the Prime Minister's brother!"
After this order, the soldiers opened the camp gate.
Cao Wu rode a tall horse and entered first.
Ah San's eyes were wary, Ah Liu's eyes were high and he also walked in.
Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly and followed, having prepared a lot of great things, but none of them were used. The lord he followed didn't need any reason at all and just killed the captain with one sword, which was quite refreshing.
Deng Ai's eyes were almost full of little stars. He had a calm temperament, but he envied heroes. Cao Wu acted eclectically and had a chivalrous spirit, which made him extremely envious.
Along with this, the few Cao soldiers following behind were all like Yourong Yan. They were Zhang Yun's subordinates. They had experienced Xia Houyuan's defeat and had been impressed by Cao Wu's unexpected changes. This time, they were completely taken over by Cao Wu. .
Zhang Yun is a good person and knows that this matter is not a dispute over military regulations, but someone deliberately targeting Cao Wu. Anyway, Cao Wu will investigate it sooner or later, so he simply sells his favor.
When Cao Wu walked up to him, the two handed over their horses. He said softly to Cao Wu on the horse: "The captain's surname is Ding. I heard he comes from the Ding family of Pei State."
After hearing this, Cao Wu nodded slightly, but he already knew it in his heart.
It seemed that someone was testing him again. The Ding family is a wealthy family in Qiao County, Peiguo, and is from the same hometown as the Cao family. Ding Gong in the family once served as Sikong, one of the three Dukes, while Cao Cao's father, Cao Song, also bought an official position and served as the Three Dukes.
The Cao and Ding families were both newly promoted local families who had produced three nobles. They were in the same county and the same county, and they were well matched, so they had been married for generations. Cao Cao's first wife, Mrs. Ding, was from the Ding family of Pei State.
However, due to Zhang Xiu's rebellion, Mrs. Ding's adopted son Cao Ang died, which caused Mrs. Ding to separate from Cao Cao. She went home angrily and never saw each other again for the rest of her life. Therefore, the Ding family was not able to sit on the Cao family's throne like the Xiahou family in the same county. Express Carry On.
"What's wrong with this family?"
While Cao Wu was thinking, he ordered everyone to wait outside, and then he rode towards the central army.
There were only patrolling soldiers in the camp. Suddenly they saw Cao Wu riding past. Everyone looked at him, but no one stopped him. He reached the central army unimpeded.
Sure enough, we saw the bright lights of the Chinese army, and there were sounds from inside, as if they were having a banquet.
Cao Wu was worried that the envoy from Jiangdong was being deceived, so he dismounted and went directly into the tent without waiting for notification.
As soon as he came in, everyone's eyes immediately focused on him.
