(The plot requires it, so this is written along the lines of the novel.)
"Whose order did you take when you went to Luoyang? Do you have any documents?"
At one of the checkpoints, a man in full armor, holding a horse-stem in his hand, stood here and shouted loudly.
The person he was yelling at and asked was Liu Cheng and his party who were waiting with Liao Hua and others.
This is Zhongmou.
Cao Cao failed to assassinate Dong Zhuo, so he drove out of Luoyang and wanted to return to Qiao County.
Qiao County is east of Luoyang, so he went all the way east.
Cao Cao was captured by Chen Gong in Zhongmou. After being released by Chen Gong, he traveled for three days to reach Dagao and arrived at Lu Boxe's home.
At this time, Liu Cheng had also left Lu Boxe's home for more than three days, and happened to arrive at Zhongmou, where Chen Gong was running away with Cao Cao.
Naturally, Liu Cheng had no intention of entering Zhongmu County. He just wanted to rush to Luoyang from the surrounding area, but he was stopped at a checkpoint eight or nine miles away from Zhongmu County.
Liu Cheng had never experienced being stopped by someone asking for paperwork.
Especially when the person guarding the checkpoint in front of him refused to take any advantage. Even if Lu Yang came forward to offer some benefits with a smile, he was rejected directly by this person and said some not-so-pleasant words. After that, Liu Cheng also changed.
Got a little angry.
"In the name of Grand Master Dong of the current dynasty! The document is right here!"
Liu Cheng patted Lu Yang on the shoulder, motioned him to stand back, raised his voice to answer, took out a stack of paper from his arms, stepped forward and handed it to one of the soldiers.
The soldier took it and handed it over to the leader.
Listening to the titles of these soldiers, Liu Cheng knew that the leader in front of him was the county captain of Zhongmu County. Zhongmu is a small county, so this man was at the level of three hundred shi.
Liu Bei, like himself, was the queen of King Jing of Zhongshan. After breaking the Yellow Turban, he was rewarded based on his merits and received a county captain. Calculating the time, by this time, the incident of being whipped with anger had already happened.
The guy's Anxi County Lieutenant has already reached the end of his career.
While Liu Cheng was thinking this, the Zhongmu County Lieutenant named Li had already taken the paper and started to open it.
Lu Yang, Liu Shui, Liao Hua and others were very curious when they saw this. Especially Lu Yang and Liu Shui, who had followed Liu Cheng all the way. They had never seen Liu Cheng go to apply for any paperwork. Why did he take out the paperwork now?
Are you with this county captain?
Could it be that Brother Cheng knows some magical magic from the immortal family and conjured it up?
Of course, this was not a document, but a notice on Cao Cao's arrest that Liu Cheng had picked up when he passed through some large villages and towns.
The county captain named Li was obviously literate. In addition, his main task during this period was to set up a trap to capture Cao Cao. He was already familiar with this announcement. He glanced at it and knew what it was. He looked towards
Liu Cheng's eyes became critical.
"How? Is this possible?"
Liu Cheng asked with a smile on his face, without any fear.
"no."
The county lieutenant named Li shook his head.
"Then, what about adding this?"
Liu Cheng said, taking off the box he was carrying behind him and showing Boss Cao's head.
The county captain surnamed Li's eyes suddenly shrank!
When the other party issued a notice that Cao Cao was wanted, he had already roughly guessed what this man might have done. Now that he saw the head in the box, his thoughts were completely confirmed.
He had met Cao Cao a few days ago, but the man was let go by the county magistrate, along with the county magistrate Chen Gongtai himself.
But I never imagined that I would meet him in this way again!
To be honest, I still admire Cao Cao and Li Jin. After all, at this time, not many people dared to directly assassinate Dong Zhuo.
I also admire Chen Gong who abandoned his official position and followed Cao Cao. In addition, Chen Gong was previously the magistrate of Zhongmu County and he was the county lieutenant. Naturally, there was inevitably some interaction between the two. Although they were both civil and military,
But we get along pretty well.
In addition, the world is becoming more and more chaotic, and Li Jin is also worried that something unexpected will happen to Cheng's hometown and something bad will happen.
That was the foundation of my Li family, so I also had some thoughts of abandoning my official position and returning home.
Such thoughts became even stronger after Chen Gong abandoned his official position and left!
Under such circumstances, Li Jin encountered someone holding Cao Cao's head and preparing to go to Luoyang to meet Dong Zhuo to receive the reward. In terms of public, private, and emotional matters, he had some thoughts of taking charge!
"Not enough!"
Li Jin shook his head and looked at the box that Lu Yang was carrying, standing not far from Liu Cheng.
Liu Cheng smiled, walked to Lu Yang, took off the box from Lu Yang, opened it, exposed Chen Gong's head inside, and faced Li Jin.
"So what now?"
He asked Li Jin with a smile.
Although he had already made some preparations in his heart, when he saw the man in front of him directly taking out Chen Gong's head, Li Jin couldn't help but feel his heart sinking. He felt that things were impermanent, and he felt a little...
Discomfort and anger.
"It's still not enough."
Li Jin shook his head again.
This attitude made Lu Yang, Liao Hua and others very angry! They wished they could beat the damn Zhongmu County Lieutenant!
Just thinking about it in my heart, Liao Hua and others really didn't dare to do anything to this person.
After all, this man is a three hundred stone official!
For people like them, the county captain with three hundred stones was already a very important person, so they naturally had some fear in their hearts.
Looking at the guy in front of him who refused to take any advice and spoke more and more aggressively, Liu Cheng suddenly understood Guan Gong's mood when he passed the test!
It’s really hard to explain rationally!
"Cao Cao assassinated the Grand Master of the dynasty and fled in fear of the crime. He was an important criminal of the imperial court, and those who harbored him are equally guilty!
Chen Gong, the magistrate of Zhongmu County, captured Cao Cao and released him privately, but I have already captured him.
Now the lieutenant of Zhongmu County led the troops to occupy the road and did not help send Cao Cao away. Chen Gong wanted the head of the criminal to go to Luoyang, but still obstructed him in every possible way. He must be an accomplice of Cao Cao's thieves!
I will capture and kill him today!
This matter has nothing to do with you soldiers, don't interfere, just stay aside with peace of mind! After arriving in Luoyang, I will tell you how to deal with it in front of the emperor!
If you dare to interfere, you will be guilty of the same crime!
Kill the nine tribes!"
Liu Cheng stopped talking to the county captain named Li.
He calmly arranged the two wooden boxes containing human heads, put them on his back again, and handed the one from Chen Gong to Lu Yang, while saying slowly
Talk.
The voice was slow at first and not very loud, but as the story progressed, the voice began to gradually get louder!
When the words "Zhu Jiu Clan" were spoken, the sound was like a roar of a tiger!
The soldiers who had noticed it and moved towards the county captain named Li all changed their expressions!
Even the county captain, whose expression had not changed much, couldn't help but be moved!
At this time, Liu Cheng had already taken a large shield from a bandit subordinate, and he was holding a long spear in his hand. After shouting the words "kill the nine tribes", he rushed forward!
