Chapter 2743 Acoustic things
Cao Zhen was very sure that Pang Tong would take the Wuguan Road, which was a conclusion based on comprehensive consideration.
Or a prediction.
This is a conclusion drawn after combining various information.
It's like speculating that the national football team will not qualify.
is an absolute, ironclad, and unquestionable conclusion.
But in Cao Zhenxin's mind, in fact, he didn't really completely rule out Pang Tong's worries that he might go to the front line of Heluo. This kind of worry was invisibly magnified during the anxious waiting.
When I'm busy, I don't have time to think about it. The more grassroots people are, the more busy they are to survive and take care of their families. They work all day when they open their eyes, and rest when they close their eyes. So generally, such hard-working people don’t have any depression, mental illness, etc. They won’t suffer from insomnia or anything, because they don’t have time to think about anything. They are so tired that they fall asleep like dogs every day. If they don’t have a good rest, they won’t be able to work the next day, and the whole family will starve…
After all, survival is the first priority, which is human nature.
When Cao Zhen was free, the original worry in his heart was gradually magnified.
Since Pang Tong has made a test, it means that he must have noticed something, so will he do the opposite? Such thoughts will become more and more disturbed, making Cao Zhen's original conclusion shaky.
Therefore, when Cao Zhen received that Huang Zhong led the troops to leave Wancheng for Heluo, his original persistence suddenly collapsed. He thought that Pang Tong dragged Huang Zhong to act together in order not to take risks for himself, and put the safety of Wancheng at risk. Regardless!
Pang Tong is so selfish!
Everyone knows that the existence of Wancheng and the absence of Huang Zhong are completely two concepts.
Just like Cao Ren could not leave Jingzhou Xiangyang easily, Huang Zhong could not easily leave Wancheng, but he never expected that Pang Tong would not hesitate to sacrifice the safety of Wancheng in order to protect himself!
With Huang Zhong absent, Wancheng is like a sieve!
As long as Huang Zhong is not around, Cao Zhen dares to guarantee that Wancheng will be captured within ten days!
There are internal responders in Wancheng...
The reason why Cao Jun couldn't move Wancheng before was not because of how high the walls of Wancheng were and how deep the ditches were, but because there was Huang Zhong in Wancheng!
Huang Zhong and his relatives are like the pinnacles of the sea. As long as he is there, Wancheng will not be able to turn the big waves.
But now, Huang Zhong actually left Wancheng to **** Pang Tong!
Is Pang Tong really not afraid, or does he not care?
Cao Zhen suddenly thought of a possibility.
Because Duke Pang De passed away, did Pang Tong, his son, have a conflict with Pang Shanmin? Perhaps it was because the position of Patriarch Pang could not be contested, and the two sides broke up?
Pang Tong and Pang Shanmin broke up. This possibility is not completely impossible.
Cao Zhen has also seen too many brothers and sisters. After the death of their parents, in order to compete for inheritance or some important items, they tore each other's face and beat each other to death. The appearance of the side, it is not too much to say that it is half a city!
With such a big interest, it is indeed possible to compete with each other...
Cao Zhen narrowed his eyes. If this is the inference, then Pang Shanmin used his direct lineage status to seize the interests of Wancheng, forcibly expelled Pang Tong, and then Pang Tong simply took Huang Zhong away?
This…
Cao Zhen showed a sneer on his face. If this is true, then it is simply a godsend opportunity!
Pang Shanmin committed suicide, and he can't blame others!
Wancheng can only exist if Huang Zhong is present, otherwise the so-called neutral status and the so-called covenant are nothing but a dead letter!
Does this count as the lost east corner harvested mulberry elm?
Unexpectedly, unexpectedly, Cao Zhen sneered, if he really couldn't catch up with Pang Tong, even if he didn't have the merits of arresting Pang Tong, Cao Zhen could find a way to activate the internal response in Wancheng, taking advantage of the emptiness of Huang Zhong's departure In the gap, take down Wancheng!
And if we catch up now, we may not be able to get both Pang Tong and Wancheng!
Cao Zhen came to the spirit.
Duke Pang De’s bones were not yet cold, but the two brothers separated and broke up, resulting in the loss of Wancheng! Hahaha, this is really a big joke, it will definitely make everyone in the world laugh at the Pang family!
This also achieved the effect of Cao Zhen following Pang Tong's incident to exert influence on Guanzhong Chang'an. It may be even better now!
Pang Tong was not loyal to his own family, and selfishly pulled Huang Zhong away, causing Wancheng to fall. Will such a person still be loyal to others? If the Pang family is weakened because of this, how many people will rush to fight for the vacant seats left?
At that time, I will provoke a little, so I can't say...
Hahaha.
Cao Zhen suddenly felt happy and less anxious than before.
This time, let Pang Tong taste the consequences of being selfish and selfish!
But what happened next made Cao Zhen really happy and couldn't last long...
Just as Cao Zhen hurriedly led 3,000 troops, not long after passing Xinye, he encountered Cao Jun's soldiers on duty at Bowangpo.
Bowang Slope. That's right, it was the Bowangpo where Liu Bei set fire to Xiahou Dun in history.
This place bears Funiu Mountain in the north, Yinshan Mountain in the south, and Baihe River in the west. There is a military stronghold here.
However, Bowangpo's military stronghold failed to stop Huang Zhong...
The military stronghold of Bowangpo is only geographically important, and there are no generals stationed there, which is somewhat similar to Wancheng. If there is a general, then Huang Zhong may not be able to pass, at least not so smoothly, but now there is no general, just relying on ordinary military schools, naturally there is nothing to do with Huang Zhong.
Of course, this cannot be said to be the negligence of Cao Jun, because although Bowangpo is said to be dangerous and a traffic hub, the north and south of Bowangpo belong to Cao Jun's territory, so naturally there is no need for any special precautions. However, after Huang Zhong's actions this time, maybe the Cao family will reconsider this issue.
『Where did the Wancheng army go? 』Cao Zhen asked who came from Bowangpo.
『General Qi, the Wancheng army is heading for Wuyang! The soldiers reported back.
"what? where to go ! 』Cao Zhen was shocked.
『Wuyang direction! ”The **** confirmed.
Cao Zhen's face suddenly became very ugly.
Because Bowangpo goes north, one direction is to go around the mountains of Funiu Mountain and go to Luyang, and the other direction is to go to Wuyang. Although there is only one word difference between these two places, the meaning is completely different.
The direction of Luyang, that is back to Heluo, Huang Zhong passed five passes and killed six generals to **** Mrs. Pang... Uh, Pang Lingjun returned to Chang'an.
The other direction of Wuyang is to travel along the Fengshui River, and then enter the Yingshui area. Not far to the north is Linying, and further north of Linying is Xu County!
There is no danger in these places to defend!
Cao Zhen trembled with fright!
Although Huang Zhong's thousand troops may not be able to bring disaster to Xu County, and it is impossible to say that Huang Zhong can take down so many cities in a short period of time, but Huang Zhong is leading cavalry, maybe it is like Tai Shici , plundered the state and crossed the county, and then Xu County was attacked by someone at every turn, and the Cao family would definitely be swept away again.
"quick! quick! Boost! 』Cao Zhen was in a hurry and urged his soldiers to go forward and give chase.
Passing Bowangpo, Cao Zhen discovered the traces left by Huang Zhong and others.
Cao Zhen was overjoyed, then shocked again, and then immediately let the soldiers slow down, and sent a large number of scouts to inquire about the situation ahead.
Because normally speaking, if the cavalry chases the cavalry, as long as the footsteps in front don't stop, it is difficult for the people behind to catch up. The large number of messy traces left here now shows that the other party stayed here, and stayed here for a long time.
Everyone knows that the war horse can only drink water, eat grass, and defecate when its qi and blood are calmed down.
And these **** blots are fresh...
what does this mean?
Cao Zhen suddenly realized something, and his face was a little ugly.
Sure enough, the scouts came back in a panic and reported that they found Huang Zhong and others...
Rather than saying "discovery", it is better to say "encounter".
That's right, it was an encounter.
If Cao Zhen hadn't woken up with a start, he might have crashed into the ambush circle set by Huang Zhong.
Cao Zhen hurriedly gathered his soldiers and waited for them.
He and Huang Zhong had an **** fight?
Cao Zhen is not as arrogant as General Baidi.
After being discovered by Cao Zhen's scouts, Huang Zhong didn't want to confront Cao Zhen's 3,000 troops head-on, nor did he continue to ambush, but revealed himself behind a hill.
『General Cao, stay safe! ”Huang Zhong stroked his long beard and said with a smile, “A certain winter day was flawed, and I was hunting in the mountains. Could it be that General Cao is also so elegant? 』
Hunting in the mountains?
Huang Zhong meant that he regarded me as a roe deer? !
Cao Zhen narrowed his eyes with a sullen face, and did not answer immediately, but looked around Huang Zhong.
But he didn't see Pang Tong.
Cao Zhenxin suddenly sank.
『Where is Mr. Pang Ling? Cao Zhen asked, "When I heard that Pang Lingjun returned to Jing, I wanted to come to invite him, but I never thought that Pang Lingjun would leave without saying goodbye. This is really against the way of hospitality, so I invite Pang Lingjun to return to Xiangyang to show the friendship of the landlord!" 』
Huang Zhong seemed to have a mocking expression on his face, "Pang Lingjun? Pang Lingjun is not here! 』
Cao Zhen's face changed, "I heard that General Huang's loyalty is the first, don't lie! 』
Huang Zhong laughed loudly, then raised his head and shook his chin, "Pang Lingjun is indeed not here. 』
Cao Zhen gritted his teeth, he suddenly realized that Huang Zhong might be telling the truth!
Pang Tong is not here!
That's right, even if Pang Tong chose to take the Heluo line, he would not have risked himself to attack Yingchuan, or even approached the city of Xu County! After all, Pang Tong is considered an important figure under Hushi's command. If he brought Huang Zhong to Yingchuan without any particularly good name, wouldn't it be the same as a rebellion?
You must know that the reason why the hussars marched back then was that Wang Can paid for it with his life!
Fortunately, the emperor did not nod at that time, otherwise the emperor would be in Chang'an now!
And now if Pang Tong leads the troops to appear near Xu County, what is the reason? The teacher comes from no name! How could such a person as Pang Tong do such a thing? It's just that I was too anxious before, and I forgot to care about this matter!
Cao Zhen's face was uncertain, and he forced a smile, "There is no Pang Lingjun, so why did General Huang leave Wan in such a hurry?" 』
Huang Zhong said with a smile, "The dogs and horses have lived in the pen for a long time, so they are wilting, so I took them for a walk. I never thought that General Cao would chase them... If General Cao has a sense of elegance, how about hunting together?" 』
Does this mean that I am a dog and a horse? Cao Zhen gritted his teeth secretly, how could he agree to Huang Zhong's invitation, instead he said with a smile, "General Huang is hunting here, so he is not afraid of changes in Wancheng?" 』
Huang Zhong's face turned serious, "If Xiaoxiao dares to commit murder, don't blame me for being ruthless!" 』
Huang Zhong's voice fell, but the murderous aura rose, and the man's eyebrows seemed to be automatic without wind, and there was a sense of bleak gold and iron.
Cao Zhen laughed forcefully, "Since General Huang is so confident, Wancheng is naturally safe." I won't disturb General Huang's hunting, so I will leave! 』
Cao Zhen ordered that the whole army turn around and divert to Luyang to pursue!
Cao Zhen realized that Huang Zhong's presence here must be Pang Tong's plan to attack the west!
If Cao Zhen was impatient and failed to send scouts to detect, Huang Zhong would not be so polite, and he might really "hunt" Cao Zhen and others as prey! Anyway, it's a big deal to post an announcement afterwards, saying that it was Lin... bah, the trainee scouts made a mistake, thinking that Cao Zhen and the others were bandits or something, and accidentally injured Yunyun.
Now Huang Zhong sees that he is cautious, so he deliberately shows up, and it is also to pester and procrastinate!
If you don't believe what he said, you will definitely stay to see if Pang Tong is hiding in the army, dressing up as a soldier or something, but just like what Cao Zhen just thought, even if Pang Tong is disguised as a soldier, Huang Zhong and others It is impossible for people to really attack Xu County!
Then there is only one answer left, that is, Huang Zhong led people to attract the attention of Cao Zhen and others. In fact, Pang Tong secretly went to Luyang!
At Huang Zhong's current position, it's not too far from completion. If Wancheng really wants something, Huang Zhong can get there within a day under Huang Zhong's long-term drive, but if he runs too far, Huang Zhong may not be able to rush back in time if Wancheng really wants something . Moreover, Cao Zhen is going to turn Huang Zhong together...
Cao Zhen was lying in ambush in the forest on the side of the road leading to Luyang.
It was Huang Zhong who was waiting for him just now, but now he is waiting for Huang Zhong!
Now the problem is in Huang Zhong's hands, should he return to Wancheng, or come to stop him?
If he returns to Wancheng, then Cao Zhen doesn’t care. If he wants to stop and harass him, Cao Zhen plans to ambush Huang Zhong. He may not be able to kill Huang Zhong, but he can also be defeated!
However, shortly after Cao Zhen diverted to Luyang and set up an ambush, the scouts who stayed behind caught up, saying that Huang Zhong did not stay in the direction of Wuyang for long, and then headed for Wancheng neatly, not Luyang. Come…
Cao Zhen froze for a moment, "Didn't come? Back to Wancheng? 』
The scout should be.
Cao Zhen suddenly realized that his prediction might be wrong again!
Pang Tong is probably not on the Luyang route either!
If it is said that Pang Tong and Huang Zhong played a trick, then Huang Zhong knew that Pang Tong had taken the Luyang route, and now that Cao Zhen changed to Luyang, Huang Zhong should intercept one or two, or cause Cao Zhen a little trouble Let's delay for a while, how could he return to Junwan City so easily?
Unless Huang Zhong lied? Pang Tong is actually hiding in his army? Then Huang Zhong returned to Wancheng, and Pang Tong left Yingchuan in disguise?
No, Cao Zhen shook his head again.
Cao Zhen recalled Huang Zhong's speech and attitude before.
At the moment of the big man, the moral standards are not like some people in the later generations. They take oaths as food and promises as a joke.
Huang Zhong doesn't seem to be lying.
Huang Zhong didn't dodge or cover up at that time, but instead vaguely made Cao Zhen feel that he was watching a joke in his eyes, which seemed to be very relaxed, as long as he saw Cao Zhen and others, it was over!
easy…
easy? !
Cao Zhen suddenly figured it out, thought it through thoroughly.
『Alas... gather soldiers, go back...』 Cao Zhen suddenly felt a little tired, and his voice became a little hoarse, 『The whole army, go back to Xiangyang...』
『What’s wrong with the general? Are you not chasing forward? ’ asked the guard on the side.
Cao Zhen closed his eyes and sighed, "Pang Shiyuan is not here..."
Huang Zhong turned around, not at all intending to stop Cao Zhen from pursuing Luyang, which means that either Huang Zhong was convinced that Pang Tong had already left first, and no matter how hard Cao Zhen pursued him, he would not be able to catch up, or that Pang Tong did not go with Huang Zhong at all. , did not take the Heluo line, but still took the Wuguan Road!
The latter is more likely!
Now Cao Zhen can only rush back, and pin his hopes on those people he arranged in Wuguan Road.
But, it was too late.
Just after Cao Zhen hurriedly left the Danshui, a flat boat came from the water, swaying along the Danshui, leisurely.
At dusk, it stopped near Cai's merchant ship.
Cai's steward stood respectfully on the shore. When he saw Pang Tong, he was not only a little surprised. He just got Cai Mao's order. Besides going to Guanzhong to purchase goods, he also had to wait halfway.
Of course, Cai's manager didn't know who he was going to support, and even Cai Mao was not sure.
Perhaps Cai Mao could guess that it was Pang Tong, but Cai Hao didn't dare to gamble with this news.
After all, Cai Hao is not sure about this request, is it a loyalty test...
Cai and Hussar are currently cooperating in secret, but Cai Mao can't guarantee that Hussar is very reassuring to Cai. If the news given to him is false, and then someone stares at him, it doesn't matter if a message is sent He is a little person, and then he was arrested by Cao Jun, so wouldn't the relationship that he managed to make in Chang'an before go to Chang'an in vain?
Because of the order Cai Mao received, he only knew that someone might come to board with Cai's token. If there is no one waiting by noon of the next day, the merchant ship can leave directly.
Cai Mao didn’t dare to gamble, and he didn’t think that selling this news to the Cao family would gain more benefits than Huqi’s side, so Cai Hao specially sent his confidant to take charge...
The setting sun shines on the Danshui, and the mountains and rivers are golden.
Pang Tong got off the boat slowly, stood on the shore and looked around at the scenery.
The long robe has large sleeves, and the silk scarf has a belt.
However, Pang Tong didn't stay long, and boarded Cai's merchant ship with a few guards.
Cai's steward bowed his head and accompanied him.
He heard that Pang Tong sighed a little bit in the midst of Danshui Mountains, which seemed to be mixed with some emotion?
What is this emotion?
Cai’s steward naturally didn’t dare to ask more questions, and even pretended that he didn’t receive Pang Tong and others at all, and then the merchant ship and his party pulled anchor and headed for the upper reaches of Danshui...
