Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 624 Strange face! (4000)

a day later.

The Huan army ran into the vanguard sent by Boss Cao head-on.

The soldiers of the vanguard did not recognize Wu Liang, let alone the Tuan army. Seeing from a distance that their personnel were of a relatively complicated age group, and they were just passers-by, they immediately yelled to drive them away from the official road: "Get out of the way!" If you don't think it's too late, you will quickly get out of the way, and you are all deaf!"

However, all the people in the Huan army stood quietly in place until a small group of soldiers trotted up with their weapons and surrounded them. Wu Liang smiled and said to the leading soldiers: "Please inform me, I am the secretary under the command of the envoy." Zhonglang general Wu Liang is waiting here for the envoy."

"General Zhonglang?"

The leading soldier was stunned for a moment, then he sized Wu Liang up and down, and then he sized up the people in the Huan army behind Wu Liang, but saw that these people were old and young, men and women, no matter how you looked at them, they were not comparable to the regular army. Not to mention the ostentation that a general classified as General Zhonglang should have when he travels, his face immediately showed suspicion, and he asked subconsciously, "Do you have a seal to prove your identity?"

"I didn't carry the seal with me, but this seal can prove my identity."

As he was speaking, Wu Liang had already taken out a small copper seal with a tiger's head, which was not too big, from his bosom, handed the small copper seal to Dian Wei, and motioned him to show it to the leading soldier for inspection.

Dian Wei stepped forward, but he didn't hand over the small copper seal directly to the soldier, but just displayed the words on the small copper seal.

"With a seal in hand, you can respond to any request?"

The soldier was also literate, frowned carefully and read the eight characters above, but the suspicion on his face did not weaken, on the contrary, it aggravated a little.

This small copper seal with a tiger's head is exactly the "Faqiu seal" awarded to Wu Liang by Boss Cao before. With this seal in hand, it is like Boss Cao's visit in person, and he can do things freely and freely in the territory under Boss Cao's rule.

But the leading soldier obviously didn't know about this seal, after all his level was too low.

But if his superiors, especially the officials who participated in the celebration banquet, must have been very impressed. After all, the power conferred by this seal of authority is second only to Boss Cao, and it was brought to Wu Liang at the celebration banquet. A lot of "hatred" and "hostility".

"What are you doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and report!"

Dian Wei glared at him immediately, and shouted in a stern tone.

As Wu Liang's number one guard with a knife, Dian Wei is well aware of his responsibilities. What he wants to protect is not only Wu Liang's personal safety, but also Wu Liang's majesty.

Such a small soldier stopped Wu Liang here and pushed back three times, which really humiliated Wu Liang's identity. It was rumored that General Wu was easy to bully.

"..."

The leading soldier was also taken aback by Dian Wei's scolding, he didn't know whether he should report it, but he didn't dare to offend easily.

But Wu Liang had already stepped forward, still smiling at the soldier, and asked, "I see that you are flying the flag with the character 'Zhang'. I wonder which general is in charge of the army?"

"It was made by General Wen Yuan."

replied the soldier.

"It turned out to be General Zhang Wenyuan (Zhang Liao)."

Wu Liang nodded slightly, and then said, "I met General Zhang once, and he also recognized me. If you go and inform him, he will know who I am. Is it true that there are still people who dare to fight against thousands of troops these days?" Is it impossible to bluff and deceive before the battle?"

Hearing this, the leading soldier finally pondered over the truth, and immediately dared not say anything more, he quickly clapped his hands and said, "No! Please wait here, General Wu."

……

Soon after.

One person led more than ten riders galloping forward, and the leader was Zhang Liao.

Seeing Wu Liang, Zhang Liao turned over and jumped off his horse, cupped his hands and said, "I don't know that General Wu is coming, but Zhang is far away from welcoming him. Please forgive me, General Wu."

"General Zhang is serious. It was Wu's visit that suddenly disturbed General Zhang's peace."

Wu Liang returned the courtesy with a smile.

He could see that although Zhang Liao said forgiveness, there was no sign of welcome on his face. He came out to greet Wu Liang in person because of Wu Liang's official rank, or he "sent Qiu Yin" to Wu Liang. Boss Cao just saved some face.

"Don't dare to be, Zhang is just a school lieutenant now, how can he be called General Wu?"

Zhang Liao made a modest statement with a half-hearted smile, and then asked straightforwardly, "I don't know why General Wu is here. There are some things to say. This time, Zhang was appointed as the vanguard by the envoy. The responsibility is very heavy, and there is no room for any mistakes, so I am afraid that I cannot be distracted from entertaining General Wu, so please take care of General Wu."

The implication is that I don’t welcome you here. I’m giving Boss Cao face by coming to see you in person. If I don’t welcome you, I don’t forget the responsibilities that Boss Cao has entrusted. Even if you go to Boss Cao and sue me, you won’t be afraid.

In fact, Zhang Liao was not dissatisfied with Wu Liang. After all, the two of them basically had no contact before. Even if there was some competition between Lu Bu and Wu Liang, it would not have much influence on him.

He just regarded Wu Liang as the "supervisor" sent by Boss Cao.

This is a common thing in the officialdom. Boss Cao didn't trust him, so he sent a person with a higher rank to parachute down. Not only would he monitor his every move, he might even face some important decisions. Relying on his official rank to dictate, if he made a meritorious service, it was the credit of the two, and if he made a mistake, he alone would be the one to bear the blame.

This is the most unacceptable thing for all generals who lead troops abroad, and it is also a taboo for military strategists.

"General Zhang doesn't need to care about me. In fact, I just came to meet the envoy. On the way, I met General Zhang's troops first. It's getting late now, so I temporarily decided to rest overnight in General Zhang's formation, and continue on my way tomorrow. Seeing the envoy, General Zhang just do his own thing, I will take care of food and lodging, don't bother General Zhang."

Wu Liang laughed again.

"In that case, then General Wu, please follow me back to the Chinese Army, please."

Seeing what Wu Liang said, Zhang Liao pondered for a while, and then made a gesture of please.

So the Liren army entered the army formation under the leadership of Zhang Liao.

It was evening at this moment, the vanguard troops had set up their camps, the fire was lit and they were making rice, and the camp was filled with a strong aroma of rice.

When Wu Liang passed by, he glanced into the cauldron on the fire.

The rice porridge that was boiling inside was very sticky, and I felt that it would be easy to set up a chopstick. It can be seen that the grain and grass in the hands of Boss Cao should still be relatively sufficient.

Before coming to the tent in this way, Zhang Liao invited Wu Liang to sit in the tent for a while.

Wu Liang had already seen that Zhang Liao didn't welcome him very much, so he politely rejected Zhang Liao's kindness, and immediately ordered the people of the Huan army to set up the tents they carried nearby, and ordered the Huan army to light the fire and cook for themselves. Got some wood for the fire.

"..."

Zhang Liao felt a little embarrassed when he watched the Huan army build their own tents and solve the problem of eating by themselves.

But in the end he didn't say anything, but returned to his tent, and then quietly called one of his scouts, and said to him: "Go quickly and tell Lu Lu, who is in the rear with the envoy, about this matter." General."

"What can I say?"

The scout asked a lot.

"Just convey the matter, and there is no need to say a single word."

Zhang Liao said.

At this moment, although Lu Bu has become Boss Cao's adoptive son, and the Lu Bu Group has also become Boss Cao's army, Zhang Liao and many generals of the Lu Bu Group still belong directly to Lu Bu.

Therefore, in Zhang Liao's view, Boss Cao's sudden appointment of Wu Liang'an to him must have other purposes, and it is necessary for Lu Bu to know about it.

As for how to decide, it still depends on Lu Bu's intention.

at the same time.

Zhang Liao was still a little confused about Wu Liang's details.

At present, Boss Cao has only two Zhonglang generals under his command, one is Lu Bu and the other is Wu Liang.

Lu Bu has a large number of people under his command. Although he doesn't say that he occupies half of Boss Cao's camp, he is also very important to Boss Cao, and Wu Liang...

Just now Zhang Liao paid attention to the people accompanying Wu Liang.

The older ones seemed to be unable to walk, the younger ones hadn't even grown their beards, and there seemed to be women among them... These people couldn't march and fight at all.

The only ones who can see it are the soldiers and Dian Wei accompanying the escort.

And what these people are wearing is called "close to the people", and the "close" people are not ordinary people, but refugees in shabby clothes, who look like they just escaped from there.

As a general of Zhonglang, it is absolutely impossible for Lu Bu to travel in such a battle, it is almost impossible to see.

So Zhang Liao really didn't understand Wu Liang's ways.

He had heard about Wu Liang's details from Lv Bu a long time ago. It is said that he only had an army of pottery and gui craftsmen with hundreds of people, and he played with live mud in Chenliuyong Hill all day long. , he is at least a good man, and the son-in-law of Boss Cao.

And at the last celebration banquet, Boss Cao named him "Marquis of Yongqiu" and added thousands of soldiers and civilians from the farmland as food towns. No matter what, it shouldn't be like this.

……

That night.

Wu Liang and the others were tired after a day's driving, so they fell asleep early.

Zhang Liao's troops also except for some soldiers who were watching the night, the rest of them found a shelter from the wind and slept with their clothes on, waiting for the dawn to continue on their way to Anyi.

There are at most two days' journey away from Anyi, and if you travel in the starry night, it may only take one day.

But this time the soldiers were not as nervous as they were in previous expeditions.

Because they have also understood the current situation, Han Xian, who is the only one who is likely to send troops, has led most of his troops to run away, and only Yang Feng and Dong Cheng, who are supporting Boss Cao, are left in Anyi City, and the rest are some who can't stand on the stage. The combined forces are not even as strong as their vanguard troops, and they can't make any big waves at all.

And at the same time.

The Huan army didn't relax completely, they had already formed a habit of going out frequently, even though they knew that there were soldiers patrolling in Zhang Liao's battalion, they still kept a few people outside their tents to take turns to make sure nothing went wrong.

By midnight.

In the barracks, only the crackling sound of the bonfire can be heard, accompanied by the whistling cold wind. Although it cannot be called tranquility, it is reassuring.

The only fly in the ointment is that there is no moon tonight, but it is really a dark and windy night.

But in this darkness.

A strange thing is floating quietly in the distance, taking advantage of the passing of patrolling soldiers, it easily flies over the simple horses outside the barracks, and circles around the many tents in the barracks, as if carefully checking Explore the situation in the barracks.

even.

That thing would quietly open the tent and enter it, and then fly out of it after a while, without knowing what it did or what it was looking for.

If a careful person sees this scene, they will notice it.

This thing has no shadow!
In fact, there should be no shadows in the dark and windy night, but there are several large bonfires in the barracks, and the light from these bonfires can also shine on this thing, but it can't show its shadow.

……

Wu Liang was sleeping soundly in the tent.

Zhen Mi leaned comfortably in his arms, while Bai Jingjing still couldn't help but insist on resting in the carriage outside.

suddenly.

"!"

Zhen Mi opened her eyes.

In the darkness, her eyes shone as green as a fox, and she turned her head to look at the curtain hanging on the tent door.

At this very moment, the not-so-thick curtain was lifted up with a bulge.

And what emerged from the bulging surface was a complete human face, and this human face was still slowly moving towards the tent against the curtain!

"..."

Zhen Mi beat Wu Liang calmly.

"Um……"

Wu Liang, who was sleeping soundly, let out a low moan, then opened half of his eyes, and looked at Zhen Mi sleepily.

It was also this soft moan that made the face that was moving slowly into the tent against the curtain stop still.

"..."

Zhen Mi pestered him again, motioning him to look at the curtain of the tent.

Wu Liang showed doubts on his face, but he still straightened his neck and looked at the curtain.

"?!"

It doesn't matter if you look at it, Wu Liang's drowsiness is instantly swept away!

I'm going to take a big hit!
How could there be a human face on the curtain? !

wronged soul?

supernatural event?

Or something else?

From the shape emerging from the curtain, it can be seen that there should be no body under this human face, just floating in the middle and upper part of the curtain like a rootless tree...

So, what is this thing?
"..."

Cold sweat was already oozing from Wu Liang's forehead. He turned over slowly, trying not to make a sound, and then reached out to take the flying tiger claws not far away.

His Flying Tiger Claw was designed by Thyme and Sun Ye, and it has already had the function of ejection, and its strength is not small. If it hits a person's face with one blow, that person will be seriously injured even if he does not die.

But whether to shoot this claw, Wu Liang still hesitated.

If it's a misunderstanding, if there's a real person out there, it's going to kill someone...

But say it.

What about Dian Wei?
What about the people who take turns in the army at night?
If it was an outsider or something strange, why didn't anyone warn him?

　Thank you [Yixin] boss for your support!
