Chapter 85 Key People

"He Chen is trying to lure us to rob the grain." Cao Wei also agreed with Xi Zhicai's opinion.

"If we are calm, our army should not move, but the next problem also knows that the army will not support the autumn harvest. If it goes on like this, our army will soon collapse without a fight. Cao Wei was extremely distressed and continued.

"So, this is another opportunity, but the danger... Hey, this He Chen has deeply captured the flaw of our army. At first, my subordinates didn't think of this, but I was a little puzzled why He Chen never took the initiative to attack head-on when he had a certain advantage in all aspects. Now it seems that he has made up his mind to consume food and fodder with us early in the morning. Xi Zhicai also sighed deeply and was deeply amazed by He Chen's deep plan.

"In the opinion of the military division, shall we go to this black nest or not?" Cao Wei was a little annoyed.

"Let's see what's going on." Xi Zhicai also felt that this matter was tricky and did not dare to make a conclusion.

"Report..."

At this time, a bodyguard asked for a meeting and said, "Report to the lord, there is a person outside who claims to be the lord's old friend."

"Oh? What's his name? Cao Wei was also a little surprised. Could it be that He Chen sent someone to surrender?

"His name is Geng Ji. After claiming to be Geng Yu, he also said that he came to study with his master when he was young. It's just that when my subordinates saw this person's ghost Chong Chong, they looked panicked. Nine times out of ten, they were annihiated.

"Geng Ji? Wasn't he sent to the heavenly prison by He Chen? Why is this suddenly here?" Cao's face was puzzled.

"The Lord will come and ask."

......

Cao Yan looked at the tattered clothes in front of him, with a gray face, like a beggar. Where can I remember the appearance of a handsome and handsome scholar with a romantic surname? I couldn't help but be a little suspicious, "Are you really Geng Ji?"

Geng Ji's expression was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and he said anxiously, "Did the general forget about the bride in those years?"

Cao Yan didn't step firmly. He staggered directly and almost lay on the ground. His two small eyes were surprisingly wide, and his expression was even a little embarrassed.

Xi Zhicai also secretly wondered that he had never seen Cao's eyes so scary.

There is an allusion to this. Once, when a family got married, Cao Qian, Yuan Shao and Geng Ji went to see the fun, but they actually wanted to steal the bride. The two of them first hid in the people's home. When it was dark, they suddenly shouted: There is a thief! The people who attended the wedding ran out of the house one after another, and Cao Wei took advantage of the chaos to get into the bridal chamber and robbed the bride. In a hurry, the road didn't go well. Yuan Shao fell into the bushes with thorns and couldn't move. Cao was in a hurry and shouted again: The thief is here! Yuan Shao was in a hurry and suddenly jumped out. The discipline was to pull Yuan Shao away.

"Is it really a good season?" Cao Qian looked at Geng Ji back and forth again, and the outline of his appearance slowly began to coincide with his memory.

"It's exactly something." Geng Ji nodded quickly, and his expression also breathed.

Cao Qian's face was a little gloomy, and his inexplicable eyes made Geng Ji uneasy.

After a while, Cao Wei slowly said, "How can Ji Xing be here? Why are you dressed like this again?

It's okay for Cao Qian not to ask. As soon as he talked about this matter, Geng Ji was like Dou E's unjustly crossing to find Bao Qingtian. The bitter water was like the Yellow River overflowing, and he said uncontrollably, "Meng Qi doesn't know. This matter is a long story. Since the emperor was welcomed to Taiyuan, He Chen began to govern the government and form a private party. Yan Ran in the court has become his world. Li Yan and Tian Feng under his banner are even more embarrassed to annihire, and regard all officials as nothing. He not only blocked the way of speech, but also arbitrarily, forcing the saint to set up a golden seal and purple silk, plus festival, yellow axe, tiger, and did not tend to enter the court. The sword went to the palace and praised him, which was the same as Dong Zhuo. What's more hateful is that most of the people in the court are dragons and phoenixes, flattering people, for the sake of their official position and drifting with the tide. Someone really couldn't stand it, so he joined forces with aspiring people such as Chun Yujia, Wei Huang, Jin Hao and others to deal with this disaster, but the matter was inadvertently missed and he was sent to prison. Fortunately, the emperor's kindness was magnificent, and the emperor put down his face and begged for mercy many times. Only then did the thief put down the butcher's knife and open the net, ready to send me and several others to the end of the Yellow River, to work on the edge of the sea. Speaking of this time, Geng Ji gasped several times and showed a little tiredness, because he had already said that a few drops of rice had not entered.

"What's next?" When Geng Ji was talking, Xi Zhicai kept staring at him. Obviously, he was observing something. When he gasped, he immediately asked.

Geng Ji smiled bitterly and pointed to the lips that had already been cracked. There were traces of blood on it and said, "There have been a few drops of water that have not entered. Can you drink a sip of water first and have a smooth your breath?"

"Please." Xi Zhicai personally poured a glass of water for Geng Ji, and then handed it over.

Geng Ji hurriedly took it with both hands, regardless of his demeanor. He looked up and drank it all. After that, he licked his lips. Only then did he feel much more comfortable in his chest, so he put down the water glass and said, "I thought my life was over, but I didn't expect that He Chen's behavior had caused anger and resentment. When he was about to sail from the White Horse Ferry through Liyang, he was suddenly rescued by several famous men. Someone was lucky enough to escape from the waterway. As for Wei Huang, Jin Hao and others, they were unfortunately hit by the flying arrows of the thief soldiers and died tragically on the spot.

"Oh? Do you know who the righteous man is? Cao Qian squinted at Geng Ji with small eyes and said carelessly.

"After some people claim to be Yang Biao, Yang Xiu is also."

"Yang Biao? But after the famous minister of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Hongnong Huayin and Yang Zhen, the son of Yang Ci, the former Shangshu Ling Yang Biao? Cao Jian then withdrew his lax eyes and said with surprise on his face.

"It's this person."

"Where is Yang Xiu now?" Cao Yan had heard of Yang Xiu's talent and name for a long time, so he hurriedly asked.

"Yang Xiu is now serving in He Chen's army. If it hadn't been for his arrangement, it would not have been possible for me to steal from the white horse guarded by heavy troops to Guandu."

Cao Qian took a look at Xi Zhicai. The latter nodded gently and said, "Yang Biao was born in a famous family and has been loyal and martyred for generations. Yang Xi, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, was awarded the title of "Marquis of Chiquan" because of his merit in killing Xiang Yu. Yang Changshi, the prime minister of Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty, was awarded the title of Marquis of Anping for his achievements. His son Yang Bao became a famous Confucian because he worked hard to study the "Jin Wen Shang Shu" taught by Ouyang Sheng. In the first year of Yongning, Emperor An of the Han Dynasty, Yang Zhen was promoted to Situ, including Yang Bing, Yang Ci, and Yang Biao's grandchildren, all of whom were officials to the three princes. It can be said that he was a high family of Wangmen and became famous in the world, and he was not inferior to the four generations and three princes of the Yuan family. The Yang family can be regarded as the emperor's kindness for generations. Yang Xiu wants to serve the court. Although his heart is in the camp, his heart is about the saint, and his loyalty is commendable.

"Poor Yang's family. Now, although Yang Biao's name is Situ, his power is overemptied by Xun You, and he finally shuts the door. Although Yang Xiu was a man, he could only sleep on the firewood and taste the gall, so that the general would solve the national disaster as soon as possible. Geng Ji also looked indifferent and sad in his heart.

Although Cao Wei was suspicious, he also believed five or six points in his heart, and his face calmed down and said, "In this case, Ji Xing will stay here. We will work together to fight to break the thief as soon as possible."

Geng Ji said with emphasis, "This is also what someone Geng expects."

At this time, Cao Shen seemed to ask inadvertently, "Ji Xing just came from Liyang. I don't know what's going on there?"

Speaking of this matter, Geng Ji was refreshed and powerful, "In someone's opinion, there is a great opportunity in front of the general."

"Oh? Then you have to talk about it. Cao said with a trace of interest on his face.

"He Chen's warehouse was a black nest half a year ago, and there were at least nearly 100,000 soldiers guarding the periphery, guarded by Guo Huai, Hao Zhao, Zhang Hao, Wu Qiu Yi and other confidants of He Chen. If so, the general has no chance at all. But the wonderful thing is that He Chen actually played a stupid move. He actually appointed Chunyu Qiong as a general to guard the black nest. Chunyu Qiong is one of the former eight lieutenants in Xiyuan, and he is old with the general. Moreover, this man was extremely addicted to alcohol. He said that he was drunk in the military camp and whipped the soldiers when he had nothing to do. He took pleasure. His subordinates were alienated from morality, and the defense line was also loosely organized. If a general is an elite soldier, one person has one firewood. Although he dare not say that he has defeated the army, it is extremely simple to ignite food and fodder.

Cao Xun sneered and said, "You all know that Chunyu Qiong and so-so are old, but He Chen'an doesn't know? Since he took Chunyu Qiong as a general, he must cheat our army to burn grain, and then ambush the troops in all.

"Geng thought the same way at the beginning, but one thing changed this view." Geng Ji's face showed an expression that he knew you would say so, and he explained.

"What's the matter?" Cao Shen's face tightened and hurriedly asked.

"He Chen intends to accept Yu Qiong's daughter as a concubine." After saying this, Geng Ji couldn't help spitting and said with hatred, "This color embryo, Chunyu Qiong's youngest daughter is already a cardamom age, more than thirteen years old, and she is a beautiful embryo, bubbling."

"Is there such a thing?" Cao Wei and Xi Zhicai said with joy on their faces.

If Geng Ji is true, then He Chen's important task of sending Chunyu Qiong to guard the black nest is also in the past, which is to please his future father-in-law. Moreover, Chunyu Qiong drank alcohol at night, and there are traces of it. His two brothers died at the hands of He Chen. In a blink of an eye, he had no choice but to throw his daughter out as a concubine. If it were someone, under the entanglement of grief and indignation, I can only drink and get drunk at night.

"Is this news for sure?" Cao Qiang suppressed the impulse in his heart and said in a low voice.

"As early as Li Yang, this matter was widely spread."

"How did you hear that you were detained all the way?"

"Yang Xiu has said that he has also heard someone talking on the way." Geng Ji expressed some dissatisfaction with Cao Qian's caution.

"Well, someone in Cao knows about this. Ji Xing is working hard. It's better to go down and change clothes and have a good meal. After that, let's discuss this matter?"

"Then I'll quit first." Geng Ji saw that Cao Jian was still a little hesitant. Although he was a little anxious, he could only retreat sullenly.

It seems that Geng Ji disappeared outside the camp under the leadership of the guards. Before Cao Qian withdrew his eyes, he heard Xi Zhicai say, "Geng Ji is telling the truth, but this news is worth talking about. The key is Yang's cultivation.
