Ma Chao took Qian Hu and seventy elite cavalry, disguised themselves, and became an elite tiger and leopard cavalry, quickly galloping to Xuanyuan Pass.
"Open the door quickly, my general has been ordered to come out!" Qian Hu rode his horse forward and came to the gate of Xuanyuan Pass, shouting in a Central Plains accent.
When Xuanyuan Pass passed, the guards immediately became frightened when they saw the tiger and leopard cavalry at the pass. They did not dare to show any slightness and immediately went to report to the guard.
The general guarding Xuanyuan Pass was Le Jin. At this time, Le Jin was still in Lunshi County, leaving deputy general Lei Bo to guard the pass.
Lei Bo was originally Yuan Shu's general. When Cao Cao attacked the Song Dynasty, Lei Bo and Lei Xu brothers could not withstand the Wei army's offensive and were forced to surrender. After the surrender, Lei Bo and Lei Xu were transferred to Yue Jin as generals and have been stationed at
Xuanyuan Pass.
In Guancheng of Xuanyuan Pass, Lei Bo and Lei Xu were sitting across from each other drinking. The two of them lived a carefree and carefree life.
"Report——"
"Why are you so panicked?" Lei Bo picked up a bowl of wine, drank it all in one gulp, and asked.
The soldier said: "There are tigers and leopards riding outside the pass. They say they are ordered to leave the pass. Please let the two generals decide."
"Tiger and Leopard Cavalry?" Lei Xu was surprised. He knew how powerful the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry was. When Cao Cao attacked Yuan Shu, he and Lei Bo led the army to resist Cao Cao. However, they suffered a loss from the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and were finally surrounded.
, was forced to surrender to Cao Cao.
"The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are the elite of our army. Those who lead the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are all members of the royal family. Since the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are here, the people leading the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry must be members of the royal family. We must go and greet them in person," Lei Bo said.
.
"Well, brother is right. Now we are demoted generals and have a low status in the Wei Kingdom. No one can offend us..." Lei Xu said helplessly, "Brother, let's go out of the city and take a look!"
Lei Bo put down his wine glass, adjusted his military uniforms, and then he and Lei Xu were fully clothed and went to the wall of Guancheng.
The two of them glanced at Guanxia and saw that there were seventy-two riders under Guanxia. The leader was a man with a silver helmet and a handsome and fair face. The two looked at each other, but they were both a little confused because they had never seen this person before.
"General Wu, when you see me, why don't you hurry down and come down from the pass?" Ma Chao shouted immediately when he saw Lei Bo and Lei Xu, the guards of Xuanyuan Pass, coming out.
After Xuanyuan closed the door, Lei Bo frowned and said to Lei Xu, "This man calls himself a young master. Could it be that he is the king's young master?"
"It is very possible that we have all met the generals of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. Cao Hong, Cao Chun, and Cao Xiu are all generals of our army. I heard that the king's eldest son Cao Ang has recently been included in the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and served as a village commander. Could it be this?
Is this the eldest son Cao Ang?" Lei Xu asked suspiciously.
Lei Bo said: "No matter who it is, we can't neglect it. After all, they are all relatives of the king."
"Brother, please go down to the pass and greet the eldest son."
"kindness!"
Lei Bo and Lei Xu reached a consensus and quickly ordered someone to open the door. They walked to the door and greeted Ma Chao personally.
"The last general, Lei Bo, Lei Xu, has met the eldest son!" Lei Bo, Lei Xu said.
Ma Chao secretly sneaked into the Wei State and already knew the Wei State very clearly, so this time he pretended to be Cao Cao's eldest son Cao Ang and asked his subordinates to pretend to be tiger and leopard cavalry. This was originally part of his plan.
"Two generals, please excuse me. I am going to the old capital of Luoyang on the order of my father. I also ask the two generals to come to you for your convenience." Ma Chao was already arrogant, but now he showed his domineering attitude even more.
The appearance of the young master is vividly performed.
Lei Xu asked: "I wonder if the eldest master has a token to escape from confinement..."
Lei Bo suddenly stopped Lei Xu, hurriedly took Lei Xu's hand, and said to Ma Chao with a smile on his face: "The eldest son has come a long way, why not rest in the pass for a day or two, and it's not too late to leave the pass.
I can entertain the young master later."
"No need, what's so good about the small Xuanyuan Pass? Get out of my way, I'm going to get out of the pass." Ma Chao's momentum was strong, giving people an irresistible attitude.
"No!" Lei Bo took the initiative to pull Lei Xu out of the way and said to his subordinates, "Get out of the way and send the eldest son out."
The guards at Xuanyuan Pass were all Lei Bo, and Lei Xu's old troops, upon hearing Lei Bo's words, immediately moved out of the way.
Ma Chaoli paid attention to Lei Bo and Lei Xu, raised his riding whip, struck Lei Bo's armor with the whip, and scolded: "Assuming you know each other, Cao Hong will follow after a while. Uncle Cao Hong and I are playing,
He wants to compete with me for credit, and if Cao Hong asks, you can just say that you have never met this king, do you understand?"
Lei Bo, Lei Xu said: "Promise, I will eventually understand."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Chao and Qian Hu quickly left Xuanyuan Pass and left without stopping.
When Lei Xu saw Ma Chao leaving, he asked: "Brother, just now I asked the eldest son for the exit token, why did the eldest brother stop me?"
"Nonsense. You clearly know that he is the eldest son, so why do you want a token? We can't afford to offend anyone in the Cao family. If we piss off the eldest son, neither you nor I can live with it."
Lei Xu said "Oh" and said: "The eldest brother is still smart, but I didn't expect the eldest son to be so handsome. He is completely different from the king."
"Well... I didn't notice it if you didn't tell me. But when you said it, I really noticed something unusual. The king looks wretched, but the eldest son has an extremely handsome appearance. Could it be that the eldest son is not the king's biological son, but..."
"Hey, brother, this is very possible. Cao Cao is lustful, maybe Cao Ang was cuckolded by someone else..."
"Shhh..." Lei Bo looked around and said, "Keep your voice down, don't make this matter public. If it gets to the king's ears, your life and mine will be in danger!"
"Brother is absolutely right..."
"Lei Bo, Lei Xu takes the order!" A fast horse carried a scout and galloped over quickly. When the scout saw Lei Bo, Lei Xu shouted loudly.
Lei Bo and Lei Xu saw the scout and saw that the scout was wearing the badge of Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. He did not dare to neglect and immediately said: "Lei Bo, Lei Xu listens to the order!"
"General Cao Hong has an order, ordering you and the two of you to guard Xuanyuan Pass. No one can leave the pass without General Cao's order. Anyone who disobeys the order will be punished without mercy!"
Lei Bo and Lei Xu looked at each other in shock, with cold sweat breaking out on their foreheads. They both thought in their hearts: "We must not let Cao Hong know that the eldest son has passed away..."
After the scout passed the order, he immediately ran back.
When Lei Bo and Lei Xu saw that the scout had left, they both breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said to the subordinates behind them: "Anyone who says that the eldest young master has passed here will be killed without mercy!"
"promise!"
……………………
Thirty miles outside Yangzhai City, Gao Fei, Gan Ning, Zhen Mi and others headed north along the Ying River. The journey was smooth. At the same time, they were constantly inquiring about the surrounding news and learned that the mysterious team was there.
After they burned, killed, looted and acted wantonly in Wei State, they didn't say anything.
The group of people once again stopped by the Yingshui River due to fatigue. Gao Fei called Gan Ning to his side and said to Gan Ning: "This place is very close to Yangdi City. Yangdi City is the county seat of Yingchuan.
The more careful you are when approaching Yangzhai City, Xu Shu is not an ordinary person, and if suspicion arises, it will be difficult to escape."
"Master means..." Gan Ning leaned over and said.
"Xu Shu has seen me and needs to disguise himself. Go and get some clothes."
"promise."
Gan Ning found some clothes from Zhen's entourage and asked Gao Fei to wear them.
Gao Fei cut off a few strands of hair, made it into a beard, and pasted it on, making him look much more mature. He even got an eye patch and made himself look hunchbacked.
Gan Ning glanced at Gao Fei in disguise and couldn't believe his eyes. He couldn't recognize Gao Fei at all. Not only did it cover up some of Gao Fei's unique aura, it also made it difficult for people to recognize him.
"Master...Master, what are you..."
"Haha, don't you recognize me? This is the effect you want..."
"Definitely..."
A fast horse galloped over from the front, carrying a middle-aged man on its back. The man was dressed luxuriously. After seeing a group of people staying by the river, he slowed down, but his eyes kept wandering.
He looked at everyone in the team carefully.
When the man's eyes saw Gan Ning, his eyes shone brightly, he immediately got off his horse and walked straight towards Gan Ning.
Gan Ning immediately became alert as soon as the middle-aged man appeared. He held a steel knife in his waist, his eyes were like a torch, and he subconsciously blocked Gao Fei's body.
Gao Fei hunched his back and saw the man gradually approaching. A smile appeared on his lips. He pushed Gan Ning away with his arms and said to himself: "Finally here..."
"Bian Xi has met the master." The man walked straight to Gao Fei, recognized Gao Fei at a glance, and leaned down to worship him.
Gao Fei no longer hunched over, stood up straight, took Bian Xi's hand, and asked: "You came at the right time. After two years of separation, how are you doing in Wei?"
Bian Xi nodded and said: "Master, everything is fine, and very good. Recently I heard that the master went to Wu State, so he asked someone to find out the news, and sent his trusted aides to intercept merchant ships at sea, and then he learned about the master's whereabouts.
It just so happened that Yingchuan was attacked by unknown people in the past few days. I thought it was the master, so I rushed all the way from Changyi..."
"Are you Bian Xi?" Gan Ning had never seen Bian Xi. At this time, he saw Bian Xi dressed in luxurious clothes and with a red face. He seemed to be an extremely wealthy man. The jade ring on his hand was worth a lot. He couldn't help but ask.
road.
Bian Xi nodded and said with a smile: "General Gan doesn't know me. I went to get to know General Gan. General Lao Gan took care of my master along the way. Thank you General Gan for your hard work."
"It is my duty to protect the master!" Gan Ning said proudly.
Gao Fei smiled and said, "This is not a place for chatting. I wonder if you have a place to stay?"
"Of course, master, please follow me. Let's go to Yangzhai City to rest."
"Yangdi City? Isn't that a county city? Are you going to put the master in trouble?" Gan Ning said.
Gao Fei trusted Bian Xi very much and immediately said to Gan Ning: "Bian Xi will not harm me. The most dangerous place is the safest place. Let's go to Yangdi City for a visit."
After hearing this, Bian Xi was very moved and immediately said to Gao Fei: "Thank you, Master, for your trust!"
