Chapter 2224 Throwing a piece of meat

 Sichuan and Shu.

Taurus Way.

The road to Shu is difficult, and it is difficult to reach the blue sky.

But no matter how difficult the road is, it can't stop the pursuit of wealth.

If a businessman wants to leave, he will not just walk casually like ordinary people. The businessman must have a camp, a resting place, and access to cattle and horses, as well as vehicles. Therefore, these originally rugged roads will gradually change into the shape of a businessman.

.

Just like the path of the Taurus.

The previous Golden Bull Road recorded the greed of the king of Shu at that time, but the current Golden Bull Road reflects the greed of the current Sichuan and Shu noble families.

Zhuge Liang stood by the road, smiling slightly, like a scholar traveling to study. He didn't even need to pretend to be special, Brother Zhu was what he was.

Because transportation became more and more convenient, more and more merchant caravans came and went, and more and more caravans also promoted the improvement of transportation.

The spring wind has already blown to the land of Sichuan and Sichuan, bringing with it a lot of precipitation. As a result, the mountain road has become more and more difficult to walk, but there are still caravans who will take advantage of the rain breaks to move forward. Time is money for these people.

This is vividly demonstrated in the body. The Tea Horse Trail can carve a path through the mountains step by step. How can a relatively mature route like the Golden Bull Trail stand in the way of the pursuit of money?

For the children who are traveling to study, if they follow the caravan, on the one hand, they don’t have to worry about going the wrong way, and they have more security in life. On the other hand, most of the people who can become caravans are related to this or that big noble family, which is considered a semi-

With a member of your own family, there is no guarantee that there will be a big customer next, so generally speaking, the caravan will not specifically refuse the joining of nobles' children.

The most dangerous time has passed.

Zhuge Liang and his party were gradually approaching Sichuan and Shu.

Although it was basically impossible to pursue the troops, Zhuge Liang, who was cautious, still asked his bodyguard, Huang Liang, to find some excuses and take a few people to inspect the rear while waiting for the caravan to set off.

An hour later, Huang Liang, who pretended to go hunting, came back with three or four people, carrying two or three pheasants, hares, etc., and then, amidst the compliments and compliments, he laughed and threw one to the caravan.

The team leader then walked to Zhuge Liang's side, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally, "I have already detected it, and there is no sign of pursuing troops..."

Zhuge Liang nodded slightly.

Huang Liang looked around and hesitated slightly, as if he wanted to ask something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Zhuge Liang glanced at Huang Liang. Huang Liang was also a member of the Huang family, probably a branch of the Huang family, because he had the same name as Zhuge Liang, so when Fei Qian in Guanzhong recommended some guards to Zhuge Liang and let Zhuge Liang choose, Zhuge Liang

He was chosen.

"If you have anything to say, just say it." Zhuge Liang said. If nothing unexpected happens, Huang Liang will become Zhuge Liang's main protective force for a long time, and to a certain extent, he can also be regarded as Zhuge Liang's confidant.

Huang Liang cupped his hands and asked what he had been doubting for many days, "May I ask... why is this tiger so bold and bold, and does it do such an evil thing?"

Zhuge Liang smiled slightly and motioned to Huang Liang to stand a little closer so as not to attract the attention of other people in the caravan. "This tiger...maybe he was not a vicious person at first...it was just to cultivate confidants in Hanzhong."

, colluding with counties and controlling the local area, it is always necessary to win over some people and control some interests... However, doing so will inevitably harm the local area..."

"Whenever a place suffers from it, there will be people who cry out for injustice. At this moment... if you were this tiger, what would you do?" Zhuge Liang said, "Will you take off your wings? Will you bow your head and capture me?"

Huang Liang was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said: "It's difficult..."

Zhuge Liang nodded and said, "That's right. The harm to Hanzhong is not a tiger alone, but a nest of snakes and rats! They collude with each other, embezzle taxes, and harm the virtuous. At this point, even if the tiger is originally pure and kind, it will

I have to be ruthless and resort to vicious methods..."

"As of today, this tiger has no way to retreat...Although many parties are delaying him, if he is unwilling to go with the flow, this tiger will definitely..." Zhuge Liang smiled, "This tiger has blocked me from going to the countryside county many times.

The town's investigation is probably because they knew that Zuo Fengyi was thoroughly investigated when he was in Chang'an. Even if he pretends to be conciliatory, it will not last long..."

"This matter is no longer good!" With a smile on his face, Zhuge Liang responded to the caravan leader who greeted him in the distance, and said to Huang Liang, "I know it, and this tiger also knows it... so I get away."

After that, this tiger will definitely close the pass tightly and investigate the past..."

"In that case..." Huang Liang said, "Since the tiger is on guard, how can we get it?"

Zhuge Liang smiled but didn't answer.

Huang Liang frowned and thought for a while, and suddenly realized...

With interests at hand, who can let go of them easily?

Everyone knows that "profit" will make you stupid, but if you know it, you will know it, and if you do it, you will do it. Just like some businessmen in later generations clamoring to be national, patriotic, give back to consumers, and shoulder social responsibilities, but they really do

When it comes to execution, how many people can really give up the leeks they get and hold back their greed? How about cutting this one first, and then waiting for the next time to be patriotic or something?

Then one wave after another...

Zhang Ze is like this. He can't help but be greedy for profit and can't stop it. Even if he wants to take it, his close subordinates won't allow him to stop it, so he will inevitably embark on this road because of profit.

Live and die for profit.

……( ̄□ ̄)!……

Waiting is painful, especially when the expected benefits fail to arrive, it is even more painful.

After waiting for several days, Cao Chun couldn't help but become more and more anxious, and at the same time, he gradually became uneasy.

Cao Chun originally thought that he could drive Kirby Neng to attack Zhao Yun, and he already knew in his heart that the Xianbei people would not wait and would fight quickly. However, at the moment Kirby Neng seemed to be more patient than him, which made Cao Chun gradually

I can't figure it out.

Could it be that Kirby could only wait because he couldn't find a way to win?

Although no warning has been received from Yuyang yet, after all, Shanggu is some distance away from Yuyang. If Yuyang is really attacked, even if Yuyang sends out a message, it will take a certain amount of time to get here.

What's more, if...

Cao Chun suddenly thought of something, frowned and stood up, wandering around like a trapped animal, and then stopped...

"Come here!" Cao Chun called the guards and gave a few instructions with a serious face.

The guard also looked solemn, nodded, and turned around.

Cao Chun frowned deeply, put his hands behind his back, turned around a few times, and finally stopped, staring in the direction of King Kirby's tent, as if he felt something, and seemed to be thinking about something...

……(` Dis’)#……

Outside King Kirby's tent, footsteps came in a hurry.

A Xianbei guard came in a hurry, then lay down in front of Kirby Neng and whispered something...

Kirby Neng had a sullen face, and after thinking for a moment, he waved his hand and asked the guards to go down first.

There was insufficient light in the big tent, and it was so gloomy that even the darkness seemed a little sticky, contaminating everywhere and clinging to people's hearts.

"If you suffer a loss, of course you will have a long memory..." After Kirby was silent for a moment, he sneered. "Haha, haha, it seems I can't hide it anymore, but it doesn't matter..."

Kirby opened the curtain of the big tent and walked out, "Here comes! Send the order, withdraw the troops!"

……╰(‵□′)╯……

Zhang He, who had been keeping an eye on the Xianbei people's movements, received the latest news, which surprised him.

Kirby can withdraw his troops.

Moreover, the retreat was very hasty, even extremely sudden. Some things that were too late to be taken away were simply thrown away, as if they were being chased by something. Zhang He once thought that Kirby could detect Zhao Yun's movements...

Gan Feng was also surprised, and subconsciously prepared to lead the army in pursuit. However, Zhang He was worried that it was a trick, so he sent scouts to conduct a detailed investigation. Finally, he came to the conclusion that Kebi could really retreat, and even Cao Jun's ambush could not escape.

Evacuated!

What the hell does this happen?

"This... we won't fight now?" Gan Feng was a little confused, and even felt deeply disappointed because of this. This feeling of loss was as if he had been holding it in for twenty or thirty years and spent all his efforts.

After spending a lot of money, I finally thought I had found a fairy sister who fell from the sky, but I didn't expect that as soon as I took off my makeup in the wedding room, she would look like a flower.

Zhang He frowned, "There must be something going on..."

"Then what happened?" Gan Feng asked.

"I don't know... I need to contact General Pingbei now..." Zhang He shook his head, "Don't think about it. I've been running for more than a day. Even if I catch up, my horsepower has been exhausted and I can't fight... Besides, I have been running for more than a day."

Now, the most important thing is to figure out what happened...』

"I'm afraid, I'm tired of waiting, and I'll end up with a bloody mess!" Gan Feng sighed, then paved the ground twice with the soles of his feet, much like the war horse next to him.

…(o_O)?……

There are soldiers all over the mountains and plains, and flags flying high.

Smoke, blood, and the fervor of war have once again descended on this land.

From the array of military camps surrounding the city to the upper and lower walls of Yuyang, corpses and blood, mutilated limbs and pieces of flesh, broken armor and broken swords outline an apocalyptic scene.

The arrows and weapons stuck on the ground or on corpses are like an abstract painting full of various lines. The destroyed siege equipment is like a few leftover bones, with blood and paleness intertwined.

, fire and black smoke dance together.

Occasionally, one or two teams of about five to ten people will slowly walk through the battlefield. Generally speaking, these people are collecting weapons and armor that can be reused. Even if they occasionally see one or two

The wounded man was still alive and passed by indifferently, as if he hadn't seen him.

Human life, especially the most basic human life, is just a number to some people.

What's even more sad is that although the dead can no longer speak about this attitude, the living people don't seem to have any opinions. Because those who have opinions are unruly people, and even those in the ranks to which they belong will subconsciously exclude them.

.

On the opposite city wall, the torches at night have not been completely extinguished and are floating in the mist, like ghosts and ghosts.

After a round of siege, there will be a short repair period. Both sides know that after the repair period, a more brutal battle will come.

Jushou looked at the formation of soldiers below the city and was speechless.

From a certain perspective, Jushou had to re-evaluate Gongsundu, the junior official of Xuantu.

Although Ju Shu defeated Gongsun Du's army attacks time and time again and did not show any signs of slackness, Gongsun Du was not as incompetent in the art of war as previously thought.

In the last round of attack, Gongsun Du's army continued to attack from two aspects. The offensive was as continuous as a roaring wave, and each wave of offensive was different. It was sometimes strong and sometimes weak, which was quite a combination of virtuality and reality.

, if it were an ordinary city defender, he would probably be in a state of confusion.

If it hadn't been for Ju Shou's on-the-spot deployment, and if Yuyang's defense was relatively well repaired, Gongsun might have found an opportunity to break through the defense and tear Yuyang's clothes apart.

Therefore, even if Gongsun's army on the periphery has stopped attacking, the Cao army's defenders on Yuyang City still have no room to relax. No one knows whether Gongsun will suddenly launch a new wave of attacks.

"General Cao..."

Jushu has sent out three waves of troops asking for help, two to the west and one to the south.

Although Jushou saw that the men and horses asking for help were being chased and intercepted by Gongsun Du, some of them still ran away, but after so many days, the natural way to Jizhou in the south is far, so let’s ignore it for the time being and go to the west to look for it.

Cao Chun, no matter how you calculate it, there should be enough time...

But the problem is where are Cao Chun's men?

……(O_O)?!……

Cao Chun walked very carefully, sending a large number of scouts, constantly detecting, and also trying to contact the peripheral Cao army scouts who had lost contact before.

After learning that Kirby could suddenly withdraw his troops, Cao Chun felt that the situation was slipping in a direction that he could not understand and control.

What exactly is Kirby going to do?

In Cao Chun's impression, Xianbei people are always vulgar, dirty, and stupid. It seems that apart from their physical strength, they are worthless. Therefore, when Cao Chun first faced Kirby,

, that’s what I thought too.

At the beginning, Kirby was indeed what Cao Chun imagined, like an enraged giant bear, rushing in front, attracting everyone's attention, and then Cao Chun could secretly hide behind the giant bear.

Later, he became a hunter in the shadows.

But now, Cao Chun felt as if his position had been rotated and he had become the prey...

Soldiers rushed over from the front, with serious faces, "General, we have found our scout camp... However, they are all dead..."

"..." Cao Chun gritted his teeth and was silent for a moment, "Lead the way and lead someone there!"

At the mountain col, there was originally a camp for Cao Jun's scouts, but now this camp has been completely slaughtered. The corpses of Cao Jun's scouts are lying in the open space in the valley...

The muscles on Cao Chun's cheeks beat, and then he ordered his soldiers to dig holes in the valley and bury the scouts together.

"Could it be the Wuhuan people who did it?" Cao Chun's confidant asked, "The weapons and armor were taken away, as well as some ordinary supplies... If they were cavalry, they might not look down on these."

...』

"Yes... it's possible..." Cao Chun nodded, "But I'm more suspicious that it was the Xianbei people who did it... This was a massacre, not a fight... Who can make our scouts relax their vigilance?

Did you let him get close?』

"Xianbei?" Cao Chun's confidant asked, "Why?"

"This is what we need to figure out..." Cao Chun looked back at the Cao Jun scouts who were being buried, "Kirby! What on earth does this bear want to do?!"

……(〃′ Pan`)q……

In the desert.

"Covenant! What a fart!" Kirby could laugh, like a bear roaring to the sky, "Under the plow, who is qualified to call us brothers and establish a covenant?! We are the sons of the plow, the sons of the desert.

king!"

"Hoot! Hoot!" The Xianbei soldiers around them excitedly raised their weapons and cheered.

Like Kirby, the Xianbei people were not at all psychologically uncomfortable with the act of tearing up the covenant, and even thought it was a sign of the other party's stupidity. You deserve to be deceived!

"This time, you did a good job! Xie Guini! If you succeed this time, I will make you the Righteous King!" Kirby patted Xie Guini on the shoulder, looking like a young man who did a good job.

After Xie Guini thanked Kirby Neng, he stood aside, scratched his head and said, "Actually, I didn't expect that this Han Gongsun would be so easy to talk to..."

"That dog in Liaodong wants to come here in his dreams..." Kirby could say, "I have dealt with him a long time ago, so why don't I know what he thinks?"

Kirby Neng laughed and said: "Have you ever seen jackals on the grassland? They are in groups. Wherever you go, these dogs will follow you, barking at you from a distance, and then you go there on horseback."

, the dog just runs away, and then comes back to bark again... But as long as you throw a piece of meat out, the dog will follow, and you want to catch or kill, isn't it simple?"

"Yes, our biggest enemy is the Han Hussar. We know this, and others know it... It's like a piece of meat..." Kirby Neng sneered, "That Han surnamed Cao still thinks we are

Will I bite this piece of meat... Haha, haha, do I look so stupid? That Wuhuan man also sent someone to coax me, and someone named Cao also came to coax me, haha, hahahaha... I don’t know who is the one.

It’s a fool!』

"Our meat is the Han Hussar, and the Han Gongsun's meat is the Yuyang..." Kirby could smile, "So what was my plan? If we can attract the Hussar people, we will retreat and let the Han people

Fight on your own... It's a pity now... Of course it's the best, even the hussars will be attracted to Yuyang... By then... Hehehe..."

"Now...this piece of meat has been thrown out..." Kirby could look to the south, as if he saw the smoke and fighting in the distance, "Humph, wait first, let's see if they grab it first..."
