Cao Thief

Chapter 416
Cao Peng will participate in the sheep picking competition, and it will be a group picking competition.

It was already the next day when Tian Yu heard the news.Yesterday he went to visit Qubei in secret, and he gained a lot.Qu Bei was very dissatisfied with Liu Bao's aggressiveness, and at the same time felt a bit of resentment for Hu Chuquan's inaction...

The reason why Hu Chuquan was able to secure the position of Shan Yu back then was thanks to Qu Bei's support.

According to Qubei's idea, if Hu Chuquan could suppress Liu Bao at the beginning, Liu Bao would not be able to rise rapidly.Even if Yu Fuluo left Liu Bao an extremely rich inheritance, Hu Chuquan is the Xiongnu Shanyu, and Liu Bao is not the same as Maodun back then.As long as Hu Chuquan could be tougher at that time, maybe Qu Bei would have become Zuo Xianwang now.

How could Qu Bei not understand Hu Chuquan's thoughts?

Balance, damn balance...

Hu Chuquan used himself to suppress Liu Bao, and at the same time used Liu Bao to contain himself.Over the years, Liu Bao occupied Shentu Zemuyuan, the fattest place in Shuofang, but Qubei could only stay in Shoujiang City, facing the threat of Ke Bineng Xianbei people.After going back and forth, Qubei was able to steadily suppress Liu Bao at the beginning, but now he has been suppressed by Liu Bao in turn.

The weaker he is, the more attached he is to Huchuquan.

Qu Bei understood Hu Chuquan's thoughts, but he was helpless...

But at this time, Tian Yu, on behalf of Cao Cao, came into contact with Qubei in private, which suddenly made Qubei's thoughts come alive.

Who is Cao Cao?

He is the hero of the world!

He defeated Yuan Shao and took charge of the court. He can be said to be the most powerful minister of the Han family.

If you can get Cao Cao's support...

Going to Bei is not Huchuquan, and you must think about things carefully.He is a Hun, and the savagery in his bones made him make a quick decision.

After Tian Yu successfully recruited Qubei, he was also very happy.

He returned to the station excitedly, but heard the news that Cao Peng was going to participate in the sheep picking competition...

"Youxue, why are you so impulsive?"

After Tian Yu asked the matter clearly, he immediately sensed the strong atmosphere of conspiracy, and couldn't help but blame Cao Peng: "This matter is quite strange. It is clearly planned by Marquis Linyi to make you compete. Maybe he..."

To be honest, Cao Peng didn't know much about Tian Yu.

After all, his understanding of Tian Yu is very vague, and he doesn't seem to have the origin of this person in his memory.The contact with Tian Yu is only a short-term cooperation in Duting, how can we really understand it?However, Tian Yu's ability to quickly detect the conspiracy in it seemed to show that his ability and strategy were absolutely extraordinary.

At least, Tian Yu may not lose too much to Pang Tong.

Cao Peng laughed and said, "I know, the Marquis of Linyi wants to take this opportunity to get rid of me."

"You know and agree?"

"Guorang, if I don't agree, the Marquis of Linyi will have a second and third design.

Moreover, the life and death of that assassin is unknown now, and he will strike sooner or later.Instead of letting him hide in the dark and design a frame for him silently, it's better for me to take the initiative and solve this person once and for all.In the hands of Marquis Linyi, I am afraid that there is only this last move.If I can kill this person, Linyi Hou will definitely have no more thoughts, and I can take the opportunity to cut off one of his arms. "

Tian Yu fell silent!
It's not that he didn't think about the matter of "leading the snake out of the hole", but he felt that Cao Peng was really risky.

"Youxue, the Xiongnu's competition is quite dangerous.

I know your skills well, but the Sheep Picking Competition has high requirements on personal skills, and is also very particular about horses and riding skills.Your current mount is really too bad, it is not good enough to participate in the sheep picking.Why don't you use it as my mount... Although it's not as good as your horse in Xudu, it's still a good horse. What do you think? "

Cao Peng shook his head, "I have ordered people to choose the horses.

Although the country makes your mount good, it may not be able to win... How about this, you send your mount first, and I will order people to continue looking for the horse.If you can't find a good horse, use your mount; if you find a good horse... Hehe, maybe you will use your mount to deceive others.Also, I have inquired about the group competition, with ten people in each team.I only have seven people with me now, how about asking Guo to let you try to transfer three confidantes? "

Tian Yu smiled and said: "This is easy, whoever you fancy among the guards, just take them away."

"In that case, I will not be polite!"

After Cao Peng and Tian Yu finished their courtesies, they took their leave and left.

From the guards, he selected three sharp men with excellent riding skills, strong physique, and vigorous skills, and then returned to his residence.

"Wang Shuang, have you ever bought a good horse?"

Back at the residence, Cao Peng saw Wang Shuang standing in the tent with a depressed expression on his face.

"Hixia walked around the market today, and found two good horses. But when the Huns saw that I was a Han, they immediately refused. He also said that King Zuoxian had an order not to sell a horse to a Han. This is clearly true. They wanted to cut off our way. I couldn't be more angry, but those Huns ignored me at all, so I had to come back..."

Cao Peng was startled, then sneered.

"It seems that this Marquis of Linyi is really close to Liu Bao... He actually told me about my mount's inability. However, it's nothing, I expected it a long time ago. Fortunately, Guo Rang put his mount Giving it to me is considered a bit of confidence. Wang Shuang, you continue to search outside, it’s good if you can find it, but it’s fine if you can’t find it.”

Wang Shuang could only nod his head, heaving a sigh of relief.

However, the more Cao Peng didn't blame him, the more determined he was to choose a good horse for Cao Peng to bring back.

On the second day, Wang Shuang immediately left the station alone, and marched to the depths of Shentu Ze.

He didn't believe that all the herdsmen in Shentuze refused to sell their horses, and as long as there was a chance, he was not willing to let it go easily.

Wang Shuang went to look for horses by himself, while Cao Peng led the people, and under the leadership of Hande, he was familiar with the rules of the sheep competition.

Time passed by little by little, and in the blink of an eye, there were only two days left before the Sheep Picking Competition.

As the sheep picking competition approached, the Xiongnu warriors selected from various ministries gathered towards Shen Tuze one after another.For a moment, around the king's tent of Zuo Xianwang, colorful flags fluttered and fluttered.There are a total of [-] tribes and nearly [-] Xiongnu warriors participating in the sheep picking contest this time.When they heard that the Han family missions were also participating, they couldn't help laughing up to the sky.Among other things, riding a horse and holding a sheep is what the Huns are best at.These warriors, selected from hundreds of thousands of tribes, grew up on horses, so it goes without saying that they are skilled in riding.When they have nothing to do, they just grab sheep for fun... There is not much difference between them on horseback and on land.

As for the Han family, do you want to compete with them in riding skills or holding sheep?

Although the warriors didn't say anything, they didn't hide the sarcasm in their expressions.

It is said that the guy doesn't even have a good horse!
Cao Peng didn't care about the ridicule of the Huns, and spent most of his time in the garrison, practicing with others.

Several times, when Tian Yu came to look for him, Cao Peng also dealt with it vaguely.

As for Liu Guang, although he didn't show up, Cao Peng knew that he must be silently paying attention...

Time, little by little.

As the sheep picking competition was approaching, Wang Shuang finally returned to the station with all the travel and dust all over his body.

"Wang Shuang, have you ever found a good horse?"

Han Dela stayed with Wang Shuang and asked eagerly.

Wang Shuang smiled and nodded repeatedly: "I found it, I found it!"

"Where?"

Han De looked behind the king's twins, only to see a skinny horse with a dull coat and bruises all over its body.

As for Wang Shuang's mount, it was still the same horse when he left, and there was no change.

Hande swallowed, and couldn't help asking: "You don't mean to tell me that the skinny horse behind you is..."

"you do not understand!"

Wang Shuang dismounted with a smile, led the skinny horse, and went to the army tent.

At this time, Cao Peng was talking with Tian Yu in the tent, when he heard Wang Shuang came back, he hurried out of the tent with Tian Yu.

"Is this the BMW horse you mentioned?"

Looking at the skinny horse, Tian Yu couldn't help asking in surprise.

Wang Shuang nodded vigorously, and replied solemnly: "Deputy Minister Huitian, this is really a BMW."

Cao Peng didn't speak at the side, and walked around the skinny horse twice, but he couldn't tell that it had the blood of a BMW horse.However, with Tian Yu at the side, he couldn't scold Wang Shuang, so he turned his head and walked into the military tent.

"Young master, this is really a fine horse."

Cao Peng stopped and looked at Wang Shuang suspiciously.

Based on his understanding of Wang Shuang, this kid is not a person who likes to talk nonsense.

"Youxue, forget it...you should use my horse for the competition. Hehe, this is obviously a poor horse, how could it be considered a good horse for BMW? Wang Shuang, you must have been deceived...youxue , you continue to practice, I still have something to do, so I will take my leave first.”

Tian Yu suppressed a smile and strode away.

And Cao Peng frowned, looked at Wang Shuang, then at the lame horse, and shook his head slightly.

"Wang Shuang, where did you buy the horse?"

"My lord, I have almost crossed Shentu Ze in the past few days.

During the period, I took a fancy to a few horses, but those people refused to sell them to me.I saw this horse by chance when I was passing by a small tribe.At that time, the Huns were using it to guide their chariots, so I bought it for a piece of gold.

Son, don't underestimate it.

It looks bad, but it is a rare dragon colt.

In the early years, I heard from my father that there was a kind of horse in the Western Regions, which was said to be a hybrid of Suan Ni and Dragon Beast. It was described as extremely ugly, but it had a violent temperament and could fight tigers and leopards.Therefore, in the Western Regions, this kind of horse is called a liger, which is extremely rare.Many people don't know about ligers, so that they treat it as a poor horse and use it to pull chariots and horses... Humbleness also accidentally discovered the characteristics of ligers on it.At that time, its owner was whipping it to let it lead the cart, maybe it was whipped hard, and the horse let out a lion's roar, which almost made my mount kneel down in fright.I felt that this horse was a bit unusual, so I went up to discuss it with the Huns... The Huns obviously didn't know how powerful it was, so they sold it to me for a gold.Otherwise, no matter how valuable this liger is, it would be impossible to buy it. "

Cao Peng only felt that it was like a novel.

He glanced at Wang Shuang suspiciously, walked up to the 'liger', and put his arms around its neck.

The bones of the 'liger' are obviously bigger than ordinary horses.

Even Zhao Yebai is about ten centimeters lower than the ligers.From the hoof to the neck, it is about 1.9 meters long, five or six centimeters taller than the red rabbit horse; the body length is about two meters six, twenty centimeters longer than the red rabbit.

The long breath shows that its lungs are extremely powerful.

The hoof is also very big, surrounded by a ring of black hair, which looks very weird.

Those eyes were dim and dull, making people feel weak.There are countless welts on his body, and there are many layers of scars.

"The food intake of ligers is more than double that of ordinary horses.

It's a pity that the Huns didn't recognize treasures, so feeding it with the amount of ordinary horses naturally couldn't make it full. "

Wang Shuang introduced it, and at the same time seemed a bit regretful.

"If I had discovered it a month earlier, this liger would definitely have come out on top. I don't know what BMW horses the Huns have, but it is absolutely impossible to surpass the liger. Unfortunately, there is not enough time. "

Cao Peng turned his head and said, "Feed it with high-quality forage."

Hande was dubious when he heard it, so he ordered people to fetch fodder.

The liger really had an amazing appetite. After eating enough fodder for an ordinary horse, it was still not satisfied. It shook its head and tail, as if begging Cao Peng to give it some more fodder.Cao Peng asked someone to fetch another portion of forage, but it still couldn't satisfy the ligers.After the third forage was delivered, Cao Peng was secretly startled...

Whether it is a good BMW horse is still in doubt.

In terms of food intake alone, this guy's food intake is almost 1.5 times that of Zhao Yebai.

Such a huge amount of food, another ordinary family, really can't afford it.No wonder, it looks skinny, it turns out that it is not full.Letting an unfed horse run will naturally fail to give full play to its advantages.However, the size of this liger is huge. If it can guarantee its fodder, it may weigh more than a ton, even heavier than the red rabbit.Cao Peng couldn't help but feel a little pity after watching the ligers eat up the third portion of forage.

Really good care, this horse is definitely the king of horses.

It's a pity, the time is too short, making it difficult for it to reach the best condition... Wouldn't it be a pity if an accident happened during the sheep picking contest?

"Wang Shuang, what's the name of this horse?"

"I see it has yellow fur and a big body, so I call it Dahuang."

"Okay then, just take care of Rhubarb and give it a horseshoe. As for this competition, don't let it participate."

While talking, Cao Peng reached out and patted Rhubarb's neck.

The liger seemed to have sensed Cao Peng's love for it, and immediately put its head on it, and burrowed into Cao Peng's arms.

This is really a BMW horse that understands human nature.

Cao Peng couldn't help but patted it on the head, then turned and left.

Is rhubarb a good horse?
Hande didn't see it!See, but only in terms of food intake, Han De thinks that rhubarb is definitely the best among horses...

However, even if it is a good horse, in its current state, even if it participates in the sheep picking competition, it may not be of great use.Thinking of this, Han De couldn't help but shook his head slightly, and said rather reproachfully: "Wang Shuang, the horse is a good horse, but the day after tomorrow is a big competition, even if you buy it back, I'm afraid you won't be able to help the young master... "

Wang Shuang bowed her head guiltily, not knowing what to say.

However, the liger shook its head and tail, and snorted heavily, as if expressing its inner dissatisfaction.
