Cao Thief

Chapter 265 Xiliang Ma Teng (Ask for a monthly ticket!!!)

Compared with when he left Xu Du two years ago, Xu Du's appearance has changed tremendously.

The city was expanded by one-half on the basis of the original.The construction of the new city wall has been completed, but the construction of the urban area has not yet ended.

When Tuntian entered its third year, the population of Xudu doubled.

It is said that Cao Cao was going to introduce Bingtun to Xudu.However, before the official introduction of Bingtun, it is necessary to conduct experiments in Haixi now.

If the effect is amazing, then Cao Cao will vigorously promote it in the coming year; if the effect is not good, then Cao Cao will think of other ways.

In fact, the garrison policy appeared as early as the Warring States period.

It was the main policy of the Qin State at that time to combine soldiers with agriculture, and to combine soldiers with farmers.

Cao Cao is also not quite sure whether Bingtun can be implemented in Xudu.And with Haixi as the experimental field, Cao Cao naturally had a little more confidence.

————————————————————

Yuxiu Tower, it seems that nothing has changed.

Towering towering, majestic standing above the street.

"It's not as good as back then!"

Sitting in the attic room of Yuxiu Building, Dianman let out a sigh of emotion.

From the window, you can see the gurgling water behind Yuxiu Tower and the green willows.It was mid-spring and the sun was shining brightly.On both sides of the stream, there are luxuriant grasses.

Apricot white and peach red, embellished in emerald green, appear a bit more brilliant.

Cao Peng took a sip of water and asked strangely, "How do you say that?"

"I heard from my father that there is a lot of fighting between the court and the court. It seems that the veterans of the court want Sikong to hand over his power, saying that he wants to return the power to His Majesty.

There were also people who shouted to recruit Yuan Shao to preside over the government, so it was a mess...

Yuande and I were guarding the palace gate, and we often heard arguments in the court hall.Sikong was also very annoyed, but those old ministers were very arrogant.In addition, His Majesty has become an adult this year, and the voice of asking Sikong to return to power has become louder and stronger, causing everyone to panic. "

"Oh?"

Kan Ze suddenly asked, "Is that what His Majesty meant?"

"I don't know if it's His Majesty's intention, but those old ministers joined forces with some famous celebrities and caused a lot of trouble."

"Is there anyone in charge?"

"Well, I don't seem to have heard of it."

Kan Ze laughed and said, "A mob can't make a fortune."

"why?"

Cao Peng took a sip of water and replied with a smile: "Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun. No matter how hard the pen is, it can't stop the sword, gun, and axe."

"That's right, that's the truth."

"Well, when you put it this way, it seems that this is really the case.

After the lord returned to the capital from xiapi, the court seemed to be much calmer.There were fewer quarrels in the past two days than in the past, probably because of fear. "

Are you scared?
Cao Peng turned his head and looked at the scenery outside the window.

I'm afraid a bigger storm is brewing...

Vaguely, Cao Peng felt that he seemed to have forgotten an important matter.But for a while, he couldn't remember it.

"By the way, what happened after Liu Bei came to Xudu?"

"Liu Bei?"

Dianman was startled, thought for a while and replied: "When I first came back, I was quite active and made friends with people everywhere. I heard that His Majesty has officially recognized Liu Bei's clan status...Don't tell me, this guy is actually Zhongshan After Prince Jing, he is still His Majesty's uncle in terms of seniority. Damn, he has become an emperor's uncle! The old officials in the court also respect him very much, so they often walk together."

Uncle!

Liu Bei finally got the title of Uncle Emperor...

Previously, although he claimed to be a clan member of the Han family, he had not been recognized by the royal family.

Now that he is recognized by the royal family, it also represents Liu Bei's identity and status, which has been improved qualitatively, and will be famous all over the world from now on.

"Not only that, Ah Fu, do you know Guan Yu?"

Cao Peng nodded, "What happened to Guan Yu?"

"Guan Yu beheaded Lü Bu in Xiapi, and his reputation grew.

This time, he was rewarded for his meritorious deeds, and he was named Yangwu Xiaowei, and he was given a salary of two thousand stones... Damn, everyone knows how he killed Lu Bu.If my father and General Yuan Rang hadn't fought Lu Bu hard for dozens of rounds, exhausting Lu Bu's energy, Guan Yu would have succeeded in that round?
At that time, it was Yuande's father who rescued him, but in the end, he became famous for nothing. "

In this time and space, Guan Yu did not warm wine and kill Hua Xiong, nor did the three heroes fight Lu Bu.Although the martial arts are strong, but the reputation is not particularly loud.Now, he beheaded Lu Bu, which made him famous and became one of the countless generals in the world.

It doesn't matter whether Guan Yu was a sneak attack or was rescued by Dian Wei.

It is an indisputable fact that Lu Bu died at his hands.

In this world, winners and losers.It's just that Lu Bu was afraid that Guan Yu would become famous after his own death...

Cao Peng couldn't help being silent!

In fact, he was also very clear about the situation in the First Battle of Xiapi.

Dian Wei rescued Guan Yu out of selfishness.At this point, Dian Wei's character has nothing to say.But Cao Peng felt that Dian Wei really shouldn't have saved Guan Yu.But thinking about it again, this is the same as he couldn't kill Zhang Fei, there are various reasons, and he can't change it with his own will.

Liu Bei is finally about to rise?
The corner of Cao Peng's mouth outlined a wicked smile.

At this moment, a commotion and noise came from the elegant room next door.

Cao Peng frowned, feeling a little unhappy.

Dianman was furious and got up to go out, but was held back by Cao Peng.

"Third brother, don't make trouble."

"Um……"

"By the way, you haven't said yet, how is Liu Bei doing now?"

Xu Yi coughed and said with a smile: "It's strange to say that since the Spring Festival, Liu Bei has become a lot more honest. He opened a vegetable garden at home, farmed and cultivated vegetables all day long, and stopped visiting... ...My father said that he became a different person after becoming the emperor's uncle."

Close the door and grow vegetables?
Cao Peng couldn't help but gasped.

There is this passage in Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but what happened?
All of a sudden, there seemed to be a gap in memory. The more anxious Cao Peng was, the more he couldn't remember what he had forgotten.

The commotion in the elegant room next door was getting louder and louder.

Listening to the accent, it seems that it is not the local accent of Yuzhou, but somewhat similar to the dialect of Liangzhou.

The Liangzhou dialect is majestic and loud.It was so loud that Cao Peng and others had to raise their voices when talking.Cao Peng feels that Yuxiu Tower is indeed not as good as it used to be!Back then, the guests in Yuxiu Building were so elegant and noble, why was there such a commotion?
He was feeling emotional, and Dianman couldn't help it!

"Bastard thing, what are you yelling at the top of your voice?"

The elegant room next door was suddenly quiet, and then a series of curses erupted.

"Grandpas are drinking here, what kind of blind thing is here to disturb grandpa's drinking."

"A group of savages, how can they deserve to drink? Go drink your urine."

Who is Dianman?

Big and small also grew up in the market, and they are not polite when they scold others.

Cao Peng wanted to stop him, but he couldn't stop him.

There was only a sound of Peng, followed by someone breaking in from the outside.Looking at the attire, it is dressed by the Qiang people, with a majestic and strong physique.

As soon as the person came in, he yelled angrily: "Which bastard is talking."

Dian Man shouted and stood up all of a sudden, his eyes widened, "I didn't bother you, but you came to die by yourself."

Norman is now 17 years old.

He looks more and more like Dian Wei.

He is more than eight feet tall, with broad shoulders and round waist.

The swarthy stubble of the beard under the chin exuded a ferocious look.

When Dianman got up, Xu Yi also got up.He is not as tall as Dianman, but his figure is a circle thicker than Dianman, and he looks very aggressive.

"Stinky boy, you are courting death!"

The Qiang people who broke in were furious and rushed over.

Cao Peng's back was facing the door, the Qiang people had to pass by Cao Peng first if they wanted to come.Originally, he could have made a detour, but he had to vacate and step over Cao Peng's head.This is a naked humiliation. If he is allowed to step over, then Cao Peng will be humiliated in the crotch.

Although after Cao Peng returned to Xudu, he repeatedly warned himself not to cause trouble.

But he doesn't cause trouble, but it doesn't mean he will be afraid of trouble.The moment the Qiang man was about to step over, Cao Peng suddenly exerted force on his legs, arched his back all of a sudden, slipped back with a wrong step, and slapped the Qiang man's crotch with a slap.With a seemingly light and inattentive blow, the Qiang flew out like a kite with a broken string, and slapped the wall hard.The walls of the elegant room are not very strong... Just this one blow made a hole in the wall.The Qiang man fell to the ground, spat out a mouthful of blood, and couldn't stand up.

Dianman and Xu Yi couldn't help shouting loudly.

Gan Ning was also full of admiration, "My lord, you are good at punching and kicking."

"act recklessly!"

Cao Peng straightened up without looking at Qiang Zi, "Second brother, haven't you always wanted to try my boxing skills? Let's fight tomorrow and let me see if you have improved."

In terms of martial arts, Dian Man and Xu Yi have also reached the level of first-class generals under the persecution of Dian Wei and Xu Chu in the past year.

Unexpectedly, Cao Peng's attack also showed the strength of the marrow washing stage, which made the two of them feel infinite emotion in their hearts.

They were formed through hard training; Cao Peng was promoted through killing.

Although it is the same approach but the same effect, the difference is huge... The martial arts that have been cultivated through hard work lack a bit of sharpness; while a guy like Cao Peng, who has been promoted from killing, does not use any force when he strikes, but when he exerts force, he is murderous.If there is a duel right away, Dianman Xu Yishang dares to say that they are evenly matched.But if they fight with bare hands, the two of them believe that Cao Peng will definitely be able to kill them...

This gap seems to be getting smaller and smaller!

"Boy, what a vicious method."

A majestic voice sounded, and a middle-aged man was seen standing outside the door.

He is more than eight feet tall, with a huge and burly body.The cheekbones are slightly high, the bridge of the nose is straight, and a pair of tiger eyes are piercing.Dressed in a blue long coat, with an angry look on his face.

Behind him, there are three young people.

One is in his early twenties, about 175 in height, with a bronzed face, a pair of big hands with wide knuckles, and veins on his arms, revealing a sense of wild strength.The other two looked a little bookish, one was also in his 20s, and was about 180 cm tall; the other was about [-] or [-] years old, thin, slightly tall and thin, but his eyes were shining.

These few people have a good momentum.

The middle-aged man shouted: "Young man, although we are a little noisy, why do you need to hurt others?

And you, how can you be so vicious? "

Kan Ze quietly stepped back without saying a word.

Gan Ning, Xiahou Lan and Hao Zhao automatically stood behind Cao Peng.

So much so that the middle-aged people saw Cao Peng at a glance, and even thought that Cao Peng was the leader here.Moreover, he could see clearly that Cao Peng made a move just now, and he knew that these young people were not just for nothing.It's just that he has been in charge of the army all year round, so his speech can't help being a little blunt.And as soon as he opened his mouth, he scolded Cao Peng, which made Cao Peng feel unhappy in his heart: You only saw that I shot fiercely, but you didn't see your person. You actually wanted to jump over my head and let me suffer from the pain in the crotch. disgrace?Why did everything come out of your mouth and became your reasoning?

Cao Peng has always been respected by people, and I respect others.

You are being polite to me and reasoning, then let's talk politely.

If you show me face, then I won't give you good words.

"My lord, do you know that this Yuxiu Tower is a royal restaurant? Since you are here, you should abide by some etiquette.

It's wrong for us to be rude, so where are you going?
Besides, scolding is scolding, you are the first to do it.If you don't like your dog, don't blame me for teaching your dog..."

A murderous intent suddenly appeared in the eyes of the middle-aged man, he stared at Cao Peng, and suddenly said after a long while: "Boy, you have the guts!"

"I don't need you to praise me for being kind."

"Dare to report your name?"

"My name is Cao Peng..."

"Cao Peng?"

The middle-aged man was startled, and suddenly laughed out loud.

"But Cao Youxue, who used tricks to harm Zhang Yide?"

What does it mean to use tricks?

My tactics were right... Cao Peng didn't bother to answer, he just looked at the middle-aged man and didn't say a word.

"Where is Lingming?"

"The end is here."

"This Captain Cao is very arrogant, teach him a lesson and let him know what is beyond the sky."

"Here!"

The stout black man walked out with a single step.

Gan Ning frowned involuntarily, and stepped in front of Cao Peng.

"If you want to teach my young master a lesson, please ask me if I agree."

When these two confronted each other, the aura generated made the middle-aged man's face change involuntarily.

And Cao Peng couldn't help frowning, because he could sense that the strong black youth in front of him was far stronger than himself.

This guy is not a top-notch expert.

At least half a level stronger than myself...

However, compared with Gan Ning, the strong black youth seems to be somewhat lacking.

In other words, his skill should be above first-rate masters, but below super-first-rate masters.If there is an accurate definition, it is similar to a quasi-super class level.Although Gan Ning and that 'Ling Ming' didn't make a move, the aura they produced was extremely astonishing.

"Ling Ming, come back!"

The middle-aged man didn't expect that Cao Peng was accompanied by a person like Gan Ning.

He hurriedly yelled loudly and stepped forward.

At this moment, Cao Peng rushed out suddenly, "Xingba, you deal with that old guy, let me learn his brilliant tricks."

Gan Ning narrowed his eyes, stopped the middle-aged man without saying a word, raised his hand and punched out.

The middle-aged man gave a cold snort, made a wrong step and dodged, and fought with Gan Ning.At the same time, the two youths behind the middle-aged man also rushed over.Dianman Xu Yi roared and stopped the two young men.In an instant, in the aisle of this pavilion, several people fought together.

Cao Peng's cannon hammer rang out to the black and strong young man.

The black and strong young man didn't dodge either, facing Cao Peng's fist, it was also a cannon hammer.Fighting with fists and feet, making a dull sound.Cao Peng took seven or eight steps back, shook his hands, and laughed, "Hei Si, you're so strong."

"Strength is good, fist and kick are better!"

The black and strong young man sneered non-stop, leaning forward.

Kan Ze grabbed Xia Houlan and Hao Zhao, smiled and said, "Don't worry, we won't fight."

"It's already been fought, how can you say it can't be fought?"

Kan Ze smiled without saying a word, just staring at the middle-aged man who was fighting with Gan Ning, thinking to himself, could this person be...

Cao Peng's fists and feet are like the wind, while the black and strong young man is powerful and heavy.

It stands to reason that Cao Peng is no match for the strong young man.However, the strength of the internal punches caught between his fists and feet, although not as powerful as the strong black young man, made the strong black young man feel extremely uncomfortable.In particular, Cao Peng's Taiji coiling silk strength, one circle after another, made the black and strong young man have a strange feeling of restraint.The more he beat, the more breathless he became, and the more he beat, the more annoyed he became, the stronger his punches and kicks, the more amazing his strength became.

"Stop it, stop it all!"

Suddenly there was a noise downstairs, followed by someone shouting loudly.

Cao Peng was in a daze, and was punched on the shoulder by the strong black youth, causing him to stagger and nearly fall.However, he reacted quickly, taking advantage of the moment he dodged, he took out an iron meteor from his pocket and flew out with shaking hands.The black and strong young man succeeded in one blow and was about to follow up.Unexpectedly, the iron meteor came whistling, and the young man couldn't help dodging in fright.It was in the blink of an eye that a group of people rushed to the restaurant.

"Second brother, third brother, stop!"

"General Shoucheng, please stop."

"Xingba, come back."

A series of shouts sounded, and the two sides stopped quickly.

Dianman Xu Yi obviously had the upper hand and felt refreshed.As for the two young men, one was disheveled and the other was beaten black and blue.Gan Ning and the middle-aged man are on equal footing.But overall, Gan Ning had the upper hand, and the middle-aged man seemed to be at a disadvantage.

Cao Peng had one arm hanging down, obviously injured.

However, the black and strong young man was not feeling well either. Cao Peng slapped his arms with the force of wrapping silk. He didn't think there was any problem at the time, but when he stopped, he only felt a burst of pain like a needle prick.Rolling up his sleeves, he saw that his forearm was red and swollen, with a slightly dark blue color...

"General Shoucheng is one of our own, so why take it seriously?"

Cao Zhen walked up to the restaurant with a young man.

Cao Peng knew the young man was Liu Guang, Marquis of Linyi.

Liu Guang smiled wryly, and said to Cao Peng: "Brother Ah Fu, you are really... just coming back, are you going to smash my restaurant?"

"Marquis of Linyi, please stay safe."

Cao Peng couldn't lift one arm, and couldn't hold hands.

Cao Zhen came over and said, "Ah Fu, why did you fight with General Wei?"

"General Wei?"

Cao Zhendao: "Let me introduce you. This is Wuwei prefect Ma Teng. This time he was ordered to enter Beijing to congratulate the emperor."

Ma Teng?

Cao Peng raised his head and looked at the middle-aged man.

Liu Guang pulled Ma Teng and persuaded him softly.

"Sure enough, a hero is born as a boy, Captain Cao, you are very capable."

"Prefect Ma, you really deserve your reputation."

"Hahaha, Mr. Ma is very happy today. I can meet some young heroes. What happened just now was just a misunderstanding. Please don't worry about it."

Cao Peng hurriedly said politely, his eyes turned, but fell on the black and strong young man.

"Hey, Hei Si... are you Pound?"

The strong black youth was taken aback, "How do you know the name of a certain family?"

Cao Peng smiled, but did not answer.

At this time, Cao Zhen said: "Ah Fu, I planned to welcome you, but there are still important tasks in the army, let's meet again at another time. You just came back, and you are also tired! Yuande, you take Ah Fu and the others back first. Boss Two, you are still on duty at the palace gate in the afternoon, so don't drink to cause trouble."

After Cao Zhen finished speaking, he bowed his hands again and apologized to Ma Teng.

Ma Teng waved his hand, only looked at Cao Peng with interest, and then at Pound, but did not speak.

Liu Guang sent Cao Peng and others down the restaurant, and suddenly heard Ma Teng say from behind: "That man Wu has a good ability, why don't you serve the country, rather than relying on others. If you are interested, you might as well come to Wuwei. With your ability , gaining fame and establishing achievements, but sooner or later."

This is clearly speaking to Gan Ning.

Cao Peng turned his head and glared at Ma Teng.

But Ma Teng didn't care...

Gan Ning smiled, "Since it's only sooner or later, why worry?"

Follow you, but sooner or later; follow my son, sooner or later...Since this is the case, wouldn't it be better for me to follow you?
The implication is: you Ma Teng, you are no match for my son!
Ma Teng's face suddenly darkened.

Standing at the bottom of the stairs, Cao Peng pouted at him with a mocking smile.

"Ah Fu, give this family a face and stop making trouble, okay?"

Liu Guang smiled wryly, and pulled Cao Peng out.

"Teacher Ma, take care."

After Cao Peng finished speaking, he followed Liu Guang out of the restaurant.

But Ma Teng's complexion was even uglier...

Cao Peng's phrase 'take care' seems to have a deep meaning.Could it be that this kid noticed something?Impossible, I heard that he just returned to Xudu, so how could he know... No, no, Xuande may be thinking about it!This kid can never be a dispensable person.

How can a dispensable person have such a master?
A dispensable person who colluded with the enemy in Xiapi and let Lu Bu's family go, but in the end he was not punished and instead became a captain of cavalry?

Ma Teng had a ghost in his heart, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

"Ling Ming?"

"The end is here."

"Do you... know this Cao Peng?"

"This, I will not know."

"Then how did he know you?"

"...the end will be unknown."

Ma Teng smiled and nodded.

However, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

——————————————————————————————

Outside Yuxiu Building, Cao Peng and others got on their horses and left after bidding farewell to Liu Guang.

"Afu!"

"kindness?

"Are you familiar with Liu Guang?"

Cao Peng thought for a while, "I'm not very familiar with each other, but there are two sides. Once in the dog fighting hall, I used the treasure knife made by my father to help my second brother pay the bill; another time, I was leaving Before Xu Du, I met him once in the street market and had a few words with him."

Cao Zhen nodded, "I have to remind you of some things.

Xu Du is not safe now...Gongsun Zan is dead, Yuan Shao won Bingyou, his strength has greatly increased, and now he is eyeing Xu Du.Many people in the court secretly opposed the lord, intending to welcome Yuan Shao's arrival.Liu Guang... You'd better not get too close to him! "

Liu Guang is a clan member of the Han family, the most trusted clansman of the Emperor Han.

He was certainly a Royalist, and could get burned if he got too close.

Cao Peng really understands Cao Zhen's kindness.But in my heart, I always have a good impression of Liu Guang.but……

Cao Peng secretly sighed in his heart: It's just a blame, he is a clan member of the Han Dynasty!

"By the way, brother, there is something that you should pay attention to."

"what's up?"

"Liu Bei is very good at acting, don't be deceived by his appearance."

When Cao Zhen heard this, his eyes froze.

————————————————————————
