Although it was already late at night, Cao Peng did not rest.
Jia Xu prepared an extremely rich gift for him, which was comprehensive information on Nanyang County's population, economy, military and other aspects in the past two years. Some of the information was made from bamboo slips, and some was made from Fuzhilou. There are many kinds of paper records sold, which add up to more than one hundred kilograms. Although Cao Peng had read a lot of information about Nanyang County in Xudu, the one prepared by Jia Xu was undoubtedly richer, more comprehensive, and more accurate. Therefore, after dinner, Cao Peng stayed in the bedroom and read these materials. Unknowingly, it was already late at night.
Since Nanyang County is now in chaos and a war-torn area, Cao Peng's vigilance has not relaxed at all.
In addition to the white camel soldiers and flying camel soldiers, there is also an unknown armed force that has undergone special training hidden near Cao Peng's residence.
Cao Peng named it: ANBU.
The so-called Anbu, as the name suggests, means that it cannot be known.
The training content includes a series of contents such as assassination, lurking, spying, makeup, fighting, etc. The training methods are mainly based on special police training techniques. As for other aspects of training content, they are specially conducted based on the characteristics of this era. Build.
Special police training cannot be the same as the training methods of later generations of special forces.
It wasn't that Cao Peng didn't want to follow the training methods of the special forces, but that he didn't know exactly what kind of methods it was.
Fortunately, he had been a police officer and almost joined the SWAT team in his previous life.
He is not unfamiliar with the training methods of special police. Moreover, in this era, the training methods of special police may be more suitable. At the same time, there are not too many members of the ANBU, except for the ten who are pretending to be servants around Cao Peng. In addition to the Anbu warriors, there are more than twenty people in Xingyang, but they have not yet been trained. The training of this Anbu is extremely complicated and requires a long period of training.
The ten secret warriors around Cao Peng have been trained for more than two years before they are considered qualified.
And a new batch of dark warriors have just started working on it. The only difference is that instead of Zhu Dao, one person has been joined by Shi A.
Zhu Dao's swordsmanship and fighting seem to be more similar to an upright sword fight.
Shi'a's swordsmanship is obviously better than that of Zhu Dao. Although he is lame and disabled, Shi'a studied under Wang Yue, dabbled in more types of swordsmanship, and knew specialized assassination swordsmanship. In this regard, Shia took over the ANBU, It seemed more suitable than Zhu Dao. Originally, Cao Peng was going to bring Zhu Dao, but was stopped by Shi A. He needed Zhu Dao to help him become familiar with the training methods of dark warriors, so he left Zhu Dao in Xingyang.
But even so, the ten dark warriors still have amazing fighting power.
Each of them seems ordinary, but they have extraordinary power.
When Zhao Yun entered the county house, the secret agents had already discovered his presence. At the same time, various agencies and information were set up around Cao Peng's house. As soon as Zhao Yun approached the bedroom, he immediately revealed his hiding place. Fortunately, Zhao Yun had no ill intentions. Otherwise there will be a fierce battle.
In the courtyard outside the bedroom, a fire suddenly lit up.
Zhao Yun was holding a spear in the courtyard with no fear on his face.
Cao Peng stood on the porch, looking curiously at the legendary most heroic man in the Three Kingdoms.
Who is stronger or weaker, Zhao Yun or Lu Bu? No one can tell. But in terms of reputation alone, Zhao Yun is not inferior to Lu Bu, and even vaguely overshadows Lu Bu.
He is eight feet tall, neither fat nor thin.
His physique is not that tall and strong, but it exudes a heart-stopping danger.
Just like a cheetah that might attack at any time, just standing there quietly makes people feel an inexplicable pressure...
When Cao Peng heard the name 'Xia Houlan', he vaguely guessed Zhao Yun's identity.
He looked at Zhao Yun, and Zhao Yun also looked at him.
Neither of them spoke first, but just stared at each other silently. Pang De stood quietly in front of Zhao Yun, with the tiger's roar in his hand lying in front of him.
He could also feel the master's temperament in Zhao Yun, and he felt an inexplicable nervousness.
That kind of aura is very similar to Ma Chao.
Pang De even thought that if he and Zhao Yun fought, he would be the loser in the end... This was something Pang De had not encountered for a long time, and it also made him very curious. Does this person know Xia Houlan? Since Ziyou
If you recognize such a master, why don't you introduce me to the young master? But judging from the young master's appearance, he seems to recognize this person, and is even very familiar with this guy...
"Zhao Yun?"
Cao Peng suddenly spoke.
Zhao Yun smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Cao."
He did not address Cao Peng by his official title, but only addressed him as son.
But don't think that he is surrendering to Cao Peng. The "gongzi" in his mouth has a completely different meaning from the "gongzi" in the words of Pang De and others.
When Pang De and others called Cao Peng "Master", it was more out of respect from the bottom of their hearts.
There was a hint of disdain for the 'young master' in Zhao Yun's words. Obviously, he did not think Cao Peng had the ability to serve as the governor of Nanyang. In Zhao Yun's eyes, Cao Peng was able to do what he did today more because of Cao Cao.
support, not out of itself.
No wonder, who made Cao Peng too young?
At least in Zhao Yun's eyes, he is too young...
"Ling Ming, let everyone retreat."
"Son..."
Pang De couldn't help being surprised, and quickly wanted to stop him, but Cao Peng waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to persuade him.
"Zilong is a gentleman. If he has any ill intentions, I'm afraid there will be rivers of blood in this county tonight... Haha, what's more, he has already said that he is here to inquire about Ziyou's situation."
Pang De hesitated for a moment and nodded in agreement.
The dark warriors and tooth soldiers immediately retreated and disappeared into the darkness in the blink of an eye.
However, don't think that they really left. They just changed from a state of war to a state of alert. If Zhao Yun makes the slightest inappropriate move, these people will come out immediately. As for Pang De, he did not retreat, but just went to Zhao Yun.
He took a few steps back, still looking on guard. The faint murderous aura made Zhao Yun also feel frightened. The guards in this small county house seemed to be lax, but he didn't expect that there were such good players. What surprised Zhao Yun the most
, nothing more than the pressure brought to him by Cao Peng.
Cao Peng had no weapons in his hands and seemed to be standing casually on the porch, but it made Zhao Yun feel an inexplicable sense of crisis...
That feeling is like a ball of fire.
The flames could surge at any time and engulf him.
In terms of force alone, this guy is probably on par with the man behind him.
If one-on-one, Zhao Yun is sure to win. But one-on-two, Zhao Yun believes that he is no match...
Not to mention, those guards hiding in the dark.
Zhao Yun held a two-foot-long silver spear across his chest, stepping on the yin and yang steps, watching Cao Peng warily.
Cao Peng stepped forward and walked down the porch. When he was still more than ten steps away from Zhao Yun, he stopped.
"Gentian, good gun."
Zhao Yun did not answer, but still stared carefully.
"Haha, Ziyou's two-foot-long dragon scale is said to be twenty kilograms heavier."
Ziyou...is it Xiaolan?
Zhao Yun was startled, and then he realized who Cao Peng was referring to by Ziyou. Don't get me wrong, Zhao Yun really didn't know that Xia Houlan's cousin was "Ziyou". Both he and Xia Houlan were from humble backgrounds.
So there is no "word". Zhao Yun had a better life. He became a disciple of Tong Yuan and was given the word Zilong by Tong Yuan. But what about Xia Houlan? He was not as lucky as Zhao Yun. When he became a disciple, Tong Yuan didn't like him at all.
If it weren't for Zhao Yun's intercession, he wouldn't even be qualified to stay in the mountain and study art...
Under such circumstances, it was naturally impossible for Tong Yuan to give him a pseudonym.
It wasn't until he followed Cao Peng to Guangling that he had a cousin.
Of course, it is impossible for Zhao Yun to know this name.
However, since Cao Peng was very familiar with his weapons, it shows how familiar Cao Peng was with him. Except for Xia Houlan, it is impossible for ordinary people to know this kind of thing. Even Liu Bei was familiar with his weapons.
Not particularly knowledgeable.
and Xia Houlan, separated for more than ten years.
Apart from a few exchanges of letters, there was no further contact.
Especially in the seventh year of Jian'an, Xia Houlan wrote again and sincerely invited Zhao Yun to come. After Zhao Yun sternly refused, the two almost broke off the correspondence. In a flash, it has been more than four years. If you don't miss your childhood friend,
That is obviously impossible.
For Zhao Yun, Xia Houlan is not only his childhood friend, but also his most trusted and closest brother.
His body couldn't help but tremble slightly. Zhao Yun took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down, but when he spoke, his voice was still trembling.
Zhao Yun's accent has a very obvious Changshan accent with a little bit of Youzhou dialect.
This has a lot to do with his experience. He was born in Zhending, Changshan. After entering the world, he followed Gongsun Zan and fought in Youzhou. The two most important stages of his life were spent in these two places. Although he later moved around,
Even though I have lived in Jingzhou for many years, I still cannot change my local accent.
"Xiaolan, how are you now?"
Cao Peng said in a deep voice: "Ziyou is now the captain of the Hexi Tongbing Academy and is stationed in Wu Pavilion."
"Wuting? Where is it?"
"Uh...it's near Lingwu Valley in Hexi, close to Shizui Mountain Pass.
Although the place is a bit remote, it is very important. In addition to serving as the commander of the military academy, he also took charge of the Lianbao Military Palace to enable General Mobei Zhonglang to resist Xianbei and the Xiongnu. Originally, I came to Nanyang this time to ask him
Recruited here. But Ziyou is currently living happily in Wuting, and he is quite unhappy, so he did not come. However, he asked me to bring you a letter and a gift.
If Zilong doesn't come today, I'm worried about how to hand it over.
Now that you're here...hehe, that's just right.
Just wait here for a moment and I will get it for you."
As he spoke, Cao Peng turned around and left.
Zhao Yun suddenly became nervous, stared at Cao Peng, and raised his silver spear slightly upward.
But the moment he raised his silver spear, an inexplicable murderous aura came from behind him. Pang De's sinister voice reached Zhao Yun's ears, "Don't act rashly. Let me tell you, there are at least a hundred crossbow arrows pointing at you all around."
You. With just one order, arrows can pierce your heart."
The silver gun was lowered again.
Zhao Yun turned around and glanced at Pang De: "Your Excellency is also a good man, why are you here, helping the tyrants?"
Pound heard this and immediately sneered.
"It is not yet known who will be King Zhou and who will be Wu of Zhou.
However, the young master is a hero in the world, so how can he be compared to someone who relies on others and loses his family's dog? If it weren't for Ziyou's face today, it's unclear whether you would be able to stand here and speak... How can a true hero talk about others behind their backs?
