Chapter 227 What kind of temptation (4800)(1/2)
An hour later.
Cao Jun has completely taken control of Qiancheng County. The more than 7,000 followers of Shou Cao Dao were killed except for a few stabs, and the rest were all taken prisoner.
Let’s look back at Cao Jun’s casualties in this battle:
Four people accidentally sprained their feet while charging, one person had his arm cut open by a counterattack, and one person accidentally fell off his horse and injured his hip...
That's all.
As the fire that Wu Liang ordered the soldiers of the Hu army to ignite quietly was extinguished, the war in the city was extinguished before it had time to ignite.
After ordering his soldiers to take custody of the more than 7,000 prisoners, Cao Ang took several personal guards to the Tianshi Palace.
The soldiers of the Hu army who had been waiting in the valley had followed Wu Liang into the city. At this moment, everyone was gathering in the Tianshi Palace. The Suihou Pearl that Wu Liang had secretly sent away had naturally been returned to its original owner.
I saw Cao Ang coming in from outside.
The soldiers of the Hu army who were joking and joking immediately calmed down a lot, and after paying military salutes, they withdrew very wisely.
Soon after.
Only Wu Liang, Cao Ang and Cao Zhen were left in the Tianshi Hall.
"Young and talented brother, I have ordered people to release the flying slaves to report the good news to my father. Now I am not the only one who is relieved. My father will also be relieved when he sees the news."
Cao Ang's character is much more stable than Cao Chen's, and he is also calmer and quite reliable in doing things.
But at the same time, it also gives people an indescribable sense of distance. Even if he behaves very appropriately every time he meets Wu Liang, and even occasionally makes some small jokes, he will never be able to become like Cao Zhen.
Wu Liang's "fair-weather friends".
This may be the friendship between gentlemen.
Cao Zhen is a gentleman, while Wu Liang considers himself a villain. Only a villain can be "as sweet as honey" to others.
"Thanks to Brother Zixiu for arriving in time with his troops this time, I will remember the life-saving grace in my heart."
Wu Liang cupped his hands and smiled.
"Young and talented brother is deliberately trying to embarrass me by saying this."
Cao Ang shook his head and smiled, and he raised his hands to Wu Liang with great respect and said, "Previously, when a talented and wise brother showed me the skill of taming flying slaves, Uncle Yuan Rang (Xiahou Dun) praised him endlessly, saying that this skill can be used to tame flying slaves."
I thought so after seeing thousands of troops and horses, but today's battle with thousands of vehicles gave me a new understanding of Xiandi. Putting aside the skills of training flying slaves, Xiandi himself is already
It can be compared with thousands of troops."
"Brother Zixiu is so ridiculous, but in fact it's just a little trick..."
Upon hearing this, Wu Liang quickly told the two of his operations after entering Qiancheng County, so as not to cause any misunderstandings due to this incident, and Cao Ang, or even Boss Cao, thought he was some resourceful strategist.
, or some brave general who is good at fighting, arrange for him to go out with the army or lead the army to fight.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Wu Liang is a good storyteller, especially his vivid description of the villain's attitude and psychology at the time, which made Cao Ang and Cao Zhen laugh.
However, he deliberately concealed the matter of "Reviving Soul Incense", "Lost Soul Incense" and "Three-Legged Turtle Soup" and only described them as ordinary poisoning.
In case Boss Cao learns that he has such a magical and terrifying thing, he will become wary of him.
Anyway, only Dian Wei, Bai Jingjing and Yu Ji knew about these things, and Sun Bao and Huang Jing who had been hit by this trick were both dead, so they were not afraid of anyone talking nonsense.
"Your talented and wise brother is such a wonderful person, a wonderful person that I have never seen before, hahaha."
After hearing Wu Liang's experience, Cao Ang was laughing so hard.
When Boss Cao hears these things later, I'm afraid he will have the same reaction. At the same time, it also fits Wu Liang's image of a deserter who was "greedy for life and afraid of death" because he came out early in front of Boss Cao.
"How can I not be as good as what Brother Zixiu said?"
Wu Liang chuckled and pointed to a pile of bamboo slips stacked together and said, "Brother Zixiu, these are the names of this group of Shoucao Tao thieves. If Brother Zixiu wants to recruit them, he should use them."
"You are still a talented and wise brother who thinks carefully."
Cao Ang said with a happy face, "Not only did our army not lose a single person in this expedition, but we recruited such a large number of soldiers. This talented and virtuous brother has done a great job. This time when I go back, I can be made a general with little effort. I'm here Congratulations in advance to my dear brother."
Zhonglangjiang is the title of general!
But what Wu Liang wanted to do was "Faqiu Zhonglang General", not some other general.
But this matter still has to be decided by Boss Cao.
The main reason is that Wu Liang is not sure whether the time is right now, whether there will be any difference between applying for the position of "Faqiu Zhonglang Jiang" and Boss Cao spontaneously and proactively naming him "Faqiu Zhonglang Jiang".
Although it is not mentioned in the official history, it is rumored in folklore that the "Faqiu Zhonglang General" will receive the "Faqiu Heavenly Seal" personally issued by Boss Cao. It is said that this thing is engraved with the eight words "Blessed by the Heavenly Official, there are no taboos" The big character is an irreplaceable divine object. It is said that once the seal is in hand, all ghosts and gods will avoid it.
Wu Liang was very interested in this seal.
If the folk legend is true and Boss Cao took the initiative to title him "Faqiu Zhonglang Jiang", then it is logical to reward him with "Faqiu Tianyin".
But if he forces it, it will be equivalent to changing the direction of history, but he may not be able to seek benevolence and get benevolence...
then.
"I don't have so many ideas. I just want to live a stable life with no worries about food and clothing under the protection of the envoy."
Wu Liang said with a smile, and finally decided to let nature take its course and not deliberately guide Boss Cao on this matter.
"But this smells like..."
Having said this, Cao Ang thought of something again, frowned slightly and said, "The person who captured Xiandi and brought him to the city is Wen Renzhao, the current head of the family. This woman once served as the protector of Shou Cao Dao, so she is related to him. Brother Xian is having some troubles, I wonder what brother Xian wants to do with this person?"

"She was also forced by the situation, but she didn't harm me. I don't think she needs to be held accountable."
Wu Liang said indifferently.
In fact, the main reason was that she had protected Bai Jingjing, and Wu Liang still recognized this favor.
In addition, she has always been a marginal figure in Shoucao Road. Not only did she not help the evil deeds, but she sometimes used her own way to fight against the evil deeds of Sun Bao and others. Wu Liang had no reason to have trouble with her.
"Isn't it possible that my talented and wise brother has fallen in love with her?"
They had been talking about business just now. As Cao Ang's general, Cao Zhen was quite abiding by the rules and never interrupted. But when this issue was brought up, the guy finally couldn't help it anymore and immediately winked and said, "I saw you just now, too." I have seen this girl, although she is covered with a veil, her temperament and figure are really incredible... Youcai Xiandi has lived in the city for so many days, hasn't he taught her how to play backgammon? This is not like Youcai Xiandi's. Style?"
"Brother Anmin thinks highly of me, but I haven't had time to teach him yet."
Wu Liang said ashamedly.
"So, my dear brother actually wants to teach, but he hasn't found the opportunity yet, right?"
Cao Zhen smiled knowingly.
"Anmin, don't mess around."
Cao Ang was not a fool, and he quickly heard the code words of the two people. However, seeing that the two of them were laughing a little too much, he still stopped Cao Ang, and then said, "In this case, I will teach people to let her go first... and... With those Yin soldier generals, I wonder what my virtuous brother plans to do with them?"
"These people depend on Brother Zixiu's wishes. They are all people who deserve to die. It only depends on whether Brother Zixiu wants them to die on the battlefield or here. I have no opinion."
Wu Liang smiled.
"Well, let's die on the battlefield."
Cao Ang nodded.
At this point, he had finished asking, so he picked up the directory next to him and looked through it, preparing to ask the soldiers to come in and take the directory to handle the collection matters.
"Oh, right."
When Cao Zhen saw that the business was finished, he came over to touch Wu Liang's shoulder and asked curiously, "Young and talented brother, you led the army to Le'an this time, but what big tomb did you find? "
"It's hard to say whether it's a big tomb or not."
Cao Zhen and Cao Ang were both on their own, and Wu Liangbian did not hide it. He nodded and said, "But there is indeed a Qi'ai Cemetery here. I have found the entrance to the tomb a few days ago, but it was a pity that I just planned to enter the tomb. Then I met the people from Shoucao Road, otherwise I would have finished exploring the tomb by now and returned to Chenliu to resume my life."
"Qi Ai Gong? But that Qi Ai Gong Lu Buchen who was cooked and killed by Zhou Yi King?"
Cao Ang obviously knew something about history. After hearing Wu Liang's words, he couldn't help but come back to his senses and ask.
"Exactly this person."
Wu Liang smiled.
"This tomb has not been excavated by my dear brother?"
Cao Ang asked again.
"Now that the affairs of Shou Cao Dao are finished, I am also ready to lead people to excavate."
Wu Liang nodded.
Cao Ang then said with great expectation: "I heard from An Min before that you had stolen the tomb of King Liang Xiao and the tomb of King Guangchuan. It was thrilling and a bit exciting. I really want to experience it myself. If If it doesn’t interfere with me, can my talented and wise brother bring Brother Yu along with him this time, and also teach Brother Yu a lesson?”
"This... this grave digging is different from fighting. If Brother Zixiu makes a mistake, I can't afford it."
Wu Liang said hesitantly.
Cao Ang's identity is too special, and there are many uncertainties in the tomb, so he really doesn't want to play with Cao Ang, a layman. If something goes wrong, his good days may come to an end. Boss Cao will definitely be able to His head was twisted off.
But for a while, Wu Liang couldn't think of a suitable excuse to evade.
"My dear brother, don't worry. I can make a written statement and if anything happens, my dear brother will not have to bear the consequences."
