However, he also knew that with a character like Xia Houen's, it was already extraordinary to be able to say such things. Furthermore, Cao Peng had never thought about saving Xia Houen, so Xia Houen's gratitude meant nothing to him.
It's not a big deal, just a good thing.
"General Ziyu, you and I both serve Duke Cao, how can we say thank you?
However, if something like this happened here, I think the old lady is also very anxious. As for Guanyi, please be more careful. I will escort these people back to the military camp to deal with them. We will leave after daybreak. I hope to pick them up.
Come down, you can be safe and have a smooth journey."
Although Mrs. Wu did not come forward, she must know about Xia Houen's capture.
Letting Xia Houen pass was, on the one hand, to report that the old lady was safe, and on the other hand, it was also a way of dealing with things. Xia Houen was not a fool, so how could he not hear the good intentions in Cao Peng's words? In his heart, he couldn't help but feel grateful and moved toward Cao Peng.
He handed over his hand again, mounted his horse and hurried away.
"He is really a young man who has never seen the world!"
Cao Peng looked at Xia Houen's back and couldn't help but smile.
He took the eight-foot-long snake spear from Chu Ge and held it heavily.
With Cao Peng's current strength, it is quite difficult to use this snake spear. However, he has no interest in snake spears, and this snake spear may be regarded as a good spear from the perspective of ordinary people. But
In Cao Peng's eyes, it seemed worthless.
"Put it away!"
"Here!"
Cao Peng ordered people to clear the battlefield and count the number of people.
This time Liu Bei sent three hundred white men to escort the family members. With Zhang Fei's courage and Guan Ping, it was a foolproof thing.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Fei suddenly decided to provoke Cao Peng.
Not only did he become a prisoner, but the three hundred white men also became Cao Peng's prisoners.
"Ziyou, go and invite Derun."
Xia Houlan let out a sigh of relief and seemed calm and relaxed.
Without saying a word, the horse left. At this time, Gan Ning, holding the horse in one hand and holding a sword in the other, came to Cao Peng and presented the sword.
Cao Peng did not pick up the broadsword, but took the suede scabbard from his horse and put it in Gan Ning's hand.
"Sir, what are you..."
"For Xingba to be a general, the BMW magic weapon is indispensable.
Now that you have a black horse, how can you not have a precious sword in your hand? Although this big sword is not a magic weapon, it was made by my father for me last year. If it is left in my hand, the sword will inevitably be covered with dust. Xingba does not have it now
If I have a weapon, I will cut off the river and give it to Xingba. One day, when Xingba rides a black horse and cuts the river to achieve great achievements, my father and I will be very happy."
When Gan Ning heard this, he couldn't help but feel excited in his heart.
His Dragon Bird was destroyed and he couldn't find a suitable weapon for a while.
He did have a pair of swords, but he didn't expect Cao Peng to be so willing to give them to him.
"Ning, thank you for your kindness, Master."
"Okay, it's getting late, let's go back to camp."
Cao Peng laughed heartily, mounted his horse and returned to the military camp.
Hao Zhao and Chu Ge led their men and drove the three hundred white-eyed soldiers into the barracks and kept them under strict guard...
Cao Peng and Gan Ning returned to the military tent and sat down. After a while, Xia Houlan came with Kan Ze.
"Brother, how is the situation over there with the old lady?"
"Everything is very good, young master, there is no need to worry...Xia Houen just passed by and took over the guard. However, his attitude is much better than before."
"Yeah?"
Cao Peng chuckled and changed the topic, "Liu Bei's family members are now prisoners of war. And Zhang Fei, Guan Ping... I am thinking about how to deal with them? Liu Bei is not an idle person. If
If you kill Zhang Fei, you can cut off his arm."
"No!"
Kan Ze waved his hand quickly.
Xia Houlan said with some dissatisfaction: "Why not? Is it possible that if he comes to provoke you, you can't kill him?"
"It's not that you can't kill, it's that you can't kill."
Of course Kan Ze understood the resentment in Xia Houlan's heart, and couldn't help but smile: "Liu Xuande is a fierce hero. He can't express his emotions or anger. Although Cao Gong is quite suspicious of this person, he also thinks highly of him. If Zhang Fei is killed, Liu Bei will
He may not turn against Duke Cao, but he will inflict hatred on the young master. Although the young master now has military exploits, if we talk about his status in Duke Cao's heart, he may not be able to compare with Liu Bei.
The young master previously explained that Lu Bu's family was young and was at the forefront of the storm.
It may not be a good thing to offend Liu Bei. In my opinion, this matter should be treated as a minor matter, just to give Liu Bei face."
In his heart, Cao Peng really couldn't bear to kill Zhang Fei, let alone harm Liu Bei's two wives.
In fact, Mrs. Gan and Mrs. Mi are also quite pitiful.
After marrying Liu Bei, he wandered around and fell into the hands of his enemies several times.
Speaking of which, they are just two little girls...Cao Peng is really not the kind of master who can destroy flowers casually.
As for Zhang Fei, he was the idol he worshiped as a child in his previous life.
Taking the head of a general out of a million troops is like searching a bag for something; breaking the Dangyang Bridge at Changban Slope, how majestic and majestic it is?
I couldn't help but sigh secretly in my heart: I really can't be considered ruthless!
"It doesn't matter if you don't kill, it's just..."
"Young Master, do you feel uncomfortable being bullied?"
"That's natural."
"Haha, I do have a plan, I think it can make the young master feel better."
"oh?"
"When I came here just now, I saw some prisoners in the camp. At first glance, these people were brave men who had been on the battlefield for a long time. Although they were prisoners, they were quite orderly and showed no signs of panic. Judging from their attire, they should be Liu Bei's elite men.
.Liu Bei probably doesn't have many elite men like this in his hands. If the master wants to have a bad temper, he might as well detain these elite men... The master doesn't have many soldiers and horses."
Swallow the white men privately?
This idea is very insightful...
In his heart, Cao Peng had always wanted to form a guard similar to that of an army.
But soldiers are easy to recruit, but capable soldiers are hard to find. Elite soldiers who are trapped in battle are elite soldiers who have been trained through many hardships and life-and-death battles.
It's not that easy to find this kind of warrior.
As far as Cao Peng's 300 men are concerned, the soldiers who participated in the Battle of Quyang have also experienced the test of life and death. However, compared with Hao Zhao's 200 soldiers, there is a very obvious gap. The sharp soldiers can be
It can't be tempered in one or two fights.
White soldiers...
Cao Peng was a little moved!
"Although the young master has no real power now, he is still the captain of the cavalry.
Moreover, your Majesty Zhuye Commandery, as well as Deng Haixi's post of Tuntian Commandery, can all be equipped with private soldiers. Five or six hundred private soldiers are not considered excessive, so why should the young master worry? Besides, the young master is just dormant now, and sooner or later he will soar into the sky.
.How can you not have personal guards by your side?"
Kan Ze's words touched Cao Peng's heart.
He raised his head and glanced at Gan Ning, and after a moment he said softly: "It's hard for these guys to surrender."
Gan Ning snorted, "Those who don't surrender will be killed... Those who surrender will be well-dressed and well-fed. Young Master, you are brave and brave, but you will also be rich and noble when you seek it."
"Then, you and Ziyou will be responsible for this matter. It needs to be handled properly before dawn."
"The last general will live up to the trust of the young master."
Gan Ning stood up and walked out of the military tent with Xia Houlan.
Cao Peng and Kan Ze looked at each other, smiled, and suddenly asked: "So, what should my guard be called?"
Kan Ze thought for a while, "Since he is a guard, why not call him 'Black Spirit Soldier'?"
"Black Spirit Warrior?"
Cao Peng was startled and couldn't help laughing.
Liu Bei had white warriors, and now I have black warriors...Does this count as a confrontation with Liu Bei? Anyway, sooner or later we have to confront each other, and black warriors will be black warriors.
It has to be said that these white warriors are very tough.
At first, Gan Ning and Xia Houlan wanted to surrender, but only one-third of them were willing to submit. Later, Gan Ning became furious and killed twenty black men who were unwilling to surrender, which made the soldiers bow their heads one by one. However, Gan Ning'
The reputation of "evil" was also erected in the army.
Early the next morning, more than two hundred white men all surrendered to Cao Peng.
In addition to the more than 200 soldiers in Cao Peng's hands previously, although he lost more than ten people in the battle last night, the number of soldiers has nearly doubled.
Cao Peng added dozens of captured war horses to his own name. Counting the fifty cavalry earlier, there were more than eighty cavalry in total. After Xia Houen saw it, without saying a word, he took the horse from his own army.
A dozen more war horses were drawn from the army and given to Cao Peng.
Xia Houen was arrogant, but he was not a ungrateful person.
Cao Peng had saved his life last night, so he reciprocated the favor and seemed to be much more affectionate than before.
After gathering a hundred cavalry, Cao Peng simply called them the "Fei Qi Bai Qi". By wearing the white Qi's clothes inside out, they became a unique cavalry army.
"Captain Cao, the old lady asked me to ask you, how to deal with those prisoners?"
Cao Peng thought for a while and replied: "Leave Zhang Fei, Guan Ping, and the two ladies at the official post, and let the pavilion chief take care of them. From here to Xudu, it is a hundred miles away, and it is not appropriate to walk."
We informed Xinji County and tried to inform Liu Bei so that he could think of a solution on his own."
It was impossible to surrender anyway, so Zhang Fei started to curse, and he was mean and mean.
Cao Peng didn't want to bring them around and make himself uncomfortable.
He appointed Gan Ning as the Marquis of the Fei Qi Cavalry and Xia Houlan as his subordinate. Then he asked Xia Houlan to escort the chariot and leave first. He took Gan Ning, Xia Houlan and Chu Ge to the gate of the official post.
"You little thief, how dare you come to die?"
Zhang Fei had woken up by now, and when he saw Cao Peng, he immediately cursed.
You know, Cao Peng not only took away his horse, but also took away his animal-faced iron fish scale armor. Moreover, that armor was currently worn on Gan Ning. In addition, even the driver
The horses were also snatched away by Cao Peng, which made Zhang Fei furious.
Cao Peng's eyes widened and he shouted sternly: "Zhang Sanheizi, if you are making rude remarks, don't blame me for not giving your elder brother face."
"you……"
"I came here to tell you that we are leaving.
It is not safe on this road, and you have no mounts, so there will inevitably be danger. I have ordered people to inform Xu Du that if you want to come here in two days, your eldest brother will bring someone to pick you up. As for you, you'd better be honest.
My beautiful sister-in-law relies on you to protect her."
Zhang Fei was so angry that he almost wanted to break his steel teeth.
"Here comes the spear!"
Cao Peng stretched out his hand, and Chu Ge immediately took off the eight-foot-long snake spear and handed it over.
After Cao Peng took it, he urged his horse forward, raised his hand and thrust the Zhangba Snake Spear upside down on the ground.
"I'll give you your weapons back. Protect the two ladies and don't let them be frightened."
After saying that, Cao Peng joined hands and bowed far away from Mrs. Gan and Mrs. Mi who walked out of the room.
"Two ladies, please take care of yourself, and we'll see you soon!"
Mrs. Gan blushed and returned the greeting gently.
But Mrs. Mi said angrily: "You little thief, I won't let you go until you return to Xudu."
Cao Peng couldn't help but laugh, "Madam, if you don't want to let me go, I'm afraid Xuande Guild will be unhappy! Cao Peng can't bear this kind of love."
After that, he gave a long laugh, turned his horse and left.
Gan Ning said to Zhang Fei: "Three generals, if there is a chance, let's fight again."
Facing Gan Ning, Zhang Fei behaved quite politely.
Although he was a rough and arrogant person, he was also different. Gan Ning's martial arts skills were similar to his, and he was equally brave and good at fighting. Zhang Fei still admired him very much.
He cupped his hands and replied: "Xing Ba, take good care of Lao Wu, and I will take it back from you in the future."
Gan Ning laughed, led Fei Qi, and galloped away.
But I saw the flying beast wearing clothes hunting in the wind, with hundreds of horses galloping, but with great momentum.
"Sister, what did that little thief mean just now? Why is my husband unhappy?" Mi Huan was young after all and could not understand Cao Peng's pun.
Mrs. Gan's face was as red as jade powder, and she spat at Cao Peng's back.
She leaned into Mi Huan's ear and explained softly. Mi Huan's face suddenly turned red...
"Little thief, you... will not die well."
The voice became smaller and smaller, and Mi Huan suddenly threw herself into Mrs. Gan's arms and cried loudly.
Growing up, her two brothers had been very close to her, taking advantage of everything they wanted. Later, she married Liu Bei, and although she was a homeless person, she was respected by others. But Cao Peng... made her experience something else.
A feeling. The fierce knife blow last night and the graceful manner when he left just now gave Mi Huan an unusual feeling. She couldn't explain clearly, but she just felt aggrieved and sad in her heart.
After leaving Chenting, Cao Peng quickly caught up with the convoy.
Along the way, we encountered no more dangers, and went straight to the outside of Xudu City smoothly.
A year and a half later, Cao Peng returned to Xudu again. Seeing the towering city walls of Xudu from a distance, he suddenly felt emotional in his heart.
On the road ahead, there was the sound of horse hooves.
Cao Peng quickly stopped the chariot and urged his horse to go forward.
Then I saw a black torrent roaring towards me. There were about two thousand black Dawan horses. At the head of the horse was a general, wearing a black helmet and black armor, with a black horse riding on his hip. Two thousand cavalry were galloping, which can be said to be a huge force.
, it only makes people feel a kind of inexplicable dizziness.
"Hush!"
The cavalry suddenly stopped about three hundred steps away from the convoy.
The two thousand cavalry all came to a stop, and the general at the head and several junior generals rode forward.
"The tiger and leopard ride on Cao Chun, leading Zidan and Boquan to greet my grandmother."
As they spoke, the three of them rolled off their saddles and fell from their horses, kneeling on one knee.
Mrs. Wu walked out of the car battle, and with the support of Xia Houzhen, she looked at Cao Chun and the other three with a satisfied smile on her face.
"Zihe, there's no need to be polite, just get up."
"Thank you grandma."
The three of them stood up, and Cao Peng saw clearly that Cao Zhen was among them.
Tiger and leopard riding!
Cao Peng looked at the mighty and majestic cavalry in front of him and couldn't help but take a breath: The tiger and leopard cavalry that shocked the Three Kingdoms was finally born...
