Cao Hong walked away easily with the strength of his army. Until dawn, the fire in Xujiazhuang had not been extinguished. When he walked in, the smell of burnt flesh filled the air. Following Xu Chu's defeated soldiers, a group of weeping faces were buried in the ashes.
and looking for their relatives among the rubble. Xujiazhuang has a large population. Because of Xu Chu's bravery, nearby bandits and soldiers never dared to harass him, and many people came to seek refuge in him. The small Xujiazhuang already had thousands of people. With so many people, Cao Hong was killed overnight
Massacre, extremely cruel!
Helping Xu Chu settle down the villagers, Long Fei patted Xu Chu on the shoulder: "What are your plans for the future, strong man?"
Xu Chu had an angry look on his face: "Cao Hong killed my people and I am at odds with him. I am willing to go to Dongjun with the general. I wonder if the general would like to take him with him?"
Long Fei nodded: "Very good! I think Cao Hong must have gone back to Dongjun, but you have to think carefully. If you go to Dongjun, you will have a narrow chance of death. If you follow me, you will have less chance of survival. I don't know what other tricks Cao Cao has.
, If a strong man has three strengths and two weaknesses, I am afraid that the revenge of this tribe will not be avenged."
Xu Chu shook his head: "General, if you don't want to? Then I'll go by myself!"
Long Fei hurriedly stopped him and sighed: "Okay! The strong man insists on leading the way with me, so I will take you with me. However, we have agreed that everything will be under my command here. Even if you want to kill Cao Hong, I will have to do it."
Agree!"
Xu Chu was stunned and looked at Long Fei. Long Fei did not give in, his domineering expression on his face. Xu Chu could only nod. After Xu Chu defeated the remaining servants, he went on the road with Long Fei alone. All the way along the Yellow River
Going east, passing through Dingtao, Jiyin arrived at Dongjun. Contrary to what everyone expected, there were no ceremonial guards blocking the sun at the gate of Dongjun, and there were no officials to greet them. After Long Fei announced his name, the defenders of the city
The soldier looked up and down suspiciously. After carefully examining the document, he hurried to Zhou Mu to report it.
Cao Cao was scolding Cao Hong. He had no problem with Cao Hong killing people, but he shouldn't have been so cruel. Now there were rumors in Dongjun. On the street, children's songs compared Cao Hong to "General Yaksha". Cao Hong lowered his head and waited.
After Cao Cao finished scolding him, he understood that his cousin was very tough with his words, but he still treated his brothers well in his heart.
"Report...! My lord, General Long Fei is asking for an audience at the city gate!"
"He's still here!" Cao Cao's face was extremely ugly: "Tell me, did I see him or not?"
Long Fei waited outside the city for an hour, but there was no movement at all. Dian Wei was a little anxious and shouted to rush in. Li Ru hurriedly stopped him. Long Fei got off the horse, found a shady place, leaned against a big tree and closed his eyes.
Recuperate. After another hour, the soldier guarding the door came over with a smile on his face: "I have kept you waiting for a long time, general. We, sir, have important matters. Please come in, general!"
No one greeted or paid attention to him. Long Fei smiled slightly, led his men, unfurled his banner, and entered the city in a swagger. So many soldiers suddenly came in, and the people of Dongjun were quite surprised, and they gathered around to watch. Long Fei
He was quite good-looking, and he was dressed in a general's uniform, and everyone on the street looked at him with suspicion. A group of people walked through the city in a swagger, not in a hurry to see Cao Cao, but first found an inn to stay and rest.
After drinking and eating, Long Fei called Guo Jia and Li Ru into his room and closed the door. Long Fei smiled bitterly: "Cao Cao doesn't seem happy about our arrival. He doesn't even see us. What can you do?"
Guo Jia shook his head: "Cao Cao doesn't dare to meet. If we want to meet, we have to make more noise."
"Haha! Fengxiao is going to make us all die here!" Long Fei said with a smile: "In that case, I have another trick that will make him suffer unspeakably! I will send someone to call Ziyi tomorrow. I have
Important orders!"
Early the next morning, shopkeeper Li and his family from the cloth shop were still asleep. The young boy rushed into the room in a hurry. The angry shopkeeper Li raised his hand and slapped him twice. The young boy covered his swollen cheeks and timidly said:
"Shopkeeper, something big happened!"
Shopkeeper Li followed the young man outside. The door of the store was smashed so hard that the door panel was about to fall off. Someone was yelling loudly outside the door. It sounded like the person's tone was harsh, so he must not be provoked, so he hurriedly ordered someone to remove the door panel. More than a dozen people were shouting.
Soldiers in military uniforms swarmed in. The leader had a sword slung around his waist and looked around: "Where is your shopkeeper? Tell him to come out quickly!"
Shopkeeper Li nodded and bowed. The leader took out a bag of gold from his arms and threw it on the counter: "Go and bring me all the most festive cloths in your store! Hurry up!"
For the sake of money, shopkeeper Li didn't dare to neglect. He led the clerk up and down and found all the festive fabrics in his store. Anything red, floral or colorful, as long as it was festive.
They moved everything out. On the carriage outside the door, all kinds of cloth were piled up. Shopkeeper Li couldn't close his mouth. How could he not be happy once the inventory accumulated over the years was sold?
Not only cloth shops, but also Rouge Shops, Tailor Shops, Jewelry Shops, Dry Goods Shops, etc., almost all the large and small shops in East County were visited by these people within two or three days. This matter became a success.
The best conversation piece in Dong County. Just when everyone was speculating about who bought so many things and what they were doing after buying them, another shocking news came out.
"According to reliable information, Master Zhou Mu's daughter is getting married!" In the most prosperous tavern in East County, a group of guests were discussing. One of them revealed such a shocking secret.
Someone with good intentions hurriedly asked: "Really? Who are you marrying?"
"General Long Fei! That's the general who entered the city a few days ago!"
Everyone suddenly understood. Some people felt that Long Fei had become a general at a young age, so Zhou Mu was a good match for marrying him. Others felt that Zhou Mu was deliberately wooing Long Fei, trying to please him in order to compete in front of the emperor.
A larger official position. Some people even believe that the state pastor was afraid of Long Fei and was forced by Long Fei to marry his daughter. In short, various versions and opinions spread rapidly in Dongjun City. In less than two days, almost all of Dongjun
Everyone knows this.
Everything seems to be going smoothly, except for the in-laws, Mr. Zhou Mu, who seems to be kept in the dark. Cao Cao is still planning his eastward strategy, thinking of various ways to stabilize his rear. He lowers his head and is carefully watching the spies.
News sent back from Chenliu.
"Lord!" Advisors Liu Ye, Hua Xin, Man Pang, Dong Zhao and others walked in silently. Cao Cao did not raise his head. He had already seen some clues from the detective report. Lu Bu and Chen Gong were working hard, and there was an invasion.
own intention.
"Lord!" Liu Ye called again. Cao Cao then raised his head and saw a large group of people came in. He laughed: "What? What's so important, such a big battle?"
"I heard that my lord has married a daughter, and I have come to congratulate him!" Hua Xin was the best at flattering him. There is a story that Guan Ning and Hua Xin were studying at the same table, and someone passed by the door in a fancy car. Guan Ning was as usual, and Hua Xin immediately went to see him.
Guan Ning immediately divided the seats and sat separately, not wanting to be with Hua Xin.
Cao Cao did not react: "What? Marry a daughter? Who wants to marry a daughter?"
Man Pang said: "Today there are rumors in the city that the lord intends to marry the young lady to the general of the country, Long Fei, so he invited Long Fei to come to Dongjun, and Long Fei sent people to buy things to welcome the bride. The whole Dongjun knew about this!
"
"Pa!" Cao Cao threw the bamboo slips to the ground and stood up with a cry: "Long Fei, you are going too far!"
The development of the matter was completely beyond Cao Cao's expectation. He thought that if he ignored Long Fei, Long Fei would leave without hesitation, but this time, Long Fei actually wanted to deceive him into having a daughter. This Long Fei was really as the rumors said, never
Knowing what it means to return empty-handed, Cao Cao immediately ordered Cao Hong to lead his troops to surround the inn, intending to cut Long Fei into pieces and repay his daughter's honor.
Cheng Yu hurriedly stopped him: "Lord, please don't act recklessly. Not only will this not solve the problem, it will anger Long Fei. I wonder what else he will do!"
"Report...! My lord, Jiang Qian asked to see you, saying that he is here for the marriage between the general and the lady!"
"Fight him out! Fight him out!" Cao Cao was completely crazy. The ordering soldiers did not move, but continued to play: "Jiang Qian is bringing heavy gifts, and hundreds of people are watching!"
"Hit! Don't you understand?"
"Slow down!" Cheng Yu lifted his clothes and knelt down: "Lord, if you drive Jiang Gan away, you will fall into Long Fei's plan. He wants the world to think that your lord is a dishonest person. The previous assassinations failed.
, Long Fei has taken the initiative, if Long Fei announces these things to the world, it will be detrimental to the lord and our Yanzhou! Please think again, lord!"
"My lord, please think twice!" Behind Cheng Yu, a group of civil servants knelt down one after another.
Cao Cao was forced by Long Fei and had no way out. He regretted it so much now that he even wanted to die. At first, he didn't know why Gui Xinqiao sent people to Wancheng to invite Long Fei. It really fulfilled the old saying that it is easier to invite gods than to send them away. Cao Cao
Although he was angry, he was not angry at Nang. He knew that the consequences would be serious. All the princes in the world were watching him. As long as Long Fei declared himself a traitor in the name of the emperor, within ten days, he would be surrounded by the armies of all princes.
At that time, it was difficult to protect oneself, let alone advance eastward.
Jiang Gan was smiling all over his face and was polite to everyone, completely ignoring the faces of everyone in the hall. With his eloquent mouth, he praised Long Fei as being like an immortal, and also said that the alliance between Cao Cao and Long Fei was like this marriage, unbreakable.
.Cao Cao said nothing and squinted his eyes as he watched Jiang Gan perform in his lobby. Until everything seemed to be going smoothly, Cao Cao asked: "I have four daughters. The eldest daughter has been betrothed to someone else. I don't know who Long Fei wants to marry."
one?"
Ever since he visited Cao Mansion that night, Long Fei has been obsessed with the girl named Cao Jie. Now that he has such a good opportunity, it is natural that she is the one. Jiang Gan has already found out clearly. This Cao Jie is Cao Cao's third daughter. She is beautiful.
He has a gentle personality and is well-educated and can definitely be considered a top class. He immediately smiled and said: "It's true that Mr. Cao has four daughters. The eldest daughter is betrothed to Xia Houmao, and the other three daughters are unmarried. My lord means that he wants all three of them!"
"You bastard!" Cao Cao was about to explode as soon as he shot several cases.
