Cao Thief

Chapter 766 Who knows right and wrong?
"Don't eat me, don't eat me!"

In a dark corner of Yangcheng, a young Qiang soldier shivered in the corner, murmuring to himself from time to time.

His eyes were dull, and he was as thin as a stick.

The whole person seemed to be crazy, whenever he saw someone walking towards him, he would subconsciously grab the weapons around him and roar hysterically.

This is just a microcosm of Yangcheng.

Ma Chao is much thinner, and he no longer has the style of Jin Ma Chao.

Sunken eyes, prominent cheekbones.But the spirit looks very good, but the brows are furrowed...

"Is there any food left?"

"Gone!"

Beside him is the general who has followed him for many years.

Following the death of Matthew Ma Dai and Hu Zun, the generals he recruited fled one after another.There are tens of thousands of troops, but now there are only a few thousand people left in this city.In addition, there is always a loyal follower who followed Ma Chao through life and death, named Ma Zhong.This Ma Zhong is from Zhangye. He lost his parents since he was a child and is lonely.His parents died at the hands of Qiu Chidi, and were later taken in by Ma Chao and brought with him.

For Ma Teng, Ma Zhong doesn't have much loyalty.

But for Ma Chao, Ma Zhong is sincerely grateful and admired...

Now Ma Chao is at the end of his life, and all around him are dead and walking, leaving Ma Zhong alone to follow.

"My lord, let's break through."

Ma Zhong said softly: "The final general is willing to cover for the lord, please break through as soon as possible."

"Breakthrough?" Ma Chao smiled wryly, "Where can I go?"

Wuwei is gone, Jincheng is gone, Wudu is gone... In the vast Northwest, I am afraid that there is no place for him, Ma Chao.Besides, Cao Jun surrounded Yangcheng tightly, Xu Huang, Cao Hong and Zhang He were alone, and Ma Chao would never be afraid.But the three... Not to mention, there are Cao Jun's soldiers ten times their own.

The situation was changing so fast that Ma Chao couldn't accept it.

Originally he had the upper hand, but in the blink of an eye, he ended up in such a fiasco!This time, he not only lost the battle, but even lost the foundation of his fortune.It is conceivable that those Qiang Di will never obey his orders again.Because in front of them, there is a stronger and more ruthless Cao Peng.

In a flash, six years!

Cao Peng has become a generation of famous players, but he is still struggling.

"Where are you going?"

"Go to Mobei... I heard that the Xianbei people are not fighting Cao Cao?"

"Shut up!" Ma Chao yelled, "I am the successor of General Fubo, how could I join forces with those Xianbei people and bow my head to be a vassal? I, Ma Chao, stand upright and can do anything, but I will never be that person who betrays his ancestors and seeks glory. thing."

Ma Zhong was speechless immediately.

Throughout Ma Chao's life, no matter how great his ambitions are, he has always maintained vigilance against alien races.

He was so powerful in Xiqiang that Hu Di was terrified.

Unfortunately……

Ma Zhong sighed, and did not continue to persuade.

Yangcheng can no longer hold on!
This is a small town, an ordinary fortress, with a small population and not much food.Thousands of soldiers and horses were trapped in Yangcheng, and the food in the city had long been eaten up.In private, many people began to eat human flesh.At first, it was human flesh, but now, many people have started to slaughter Paoze and eat it...

Morale has fallen to the bottom, and there is no will to fight at all.

Although Ma Chao disliked that kind of cannibalism, but faced with such a predicament, he could only turn a blind eye and close one eye!

"My lord, look!"

Just when Ma Chao was deep in thought, he suddenly heard Ma Zhong yelling loudly.Ma Chao raised his head and looked in the direction of Ma Zhong's finger.He couldn't help being startled, a look of surprise appeared on his thin face.

Cao Jun, is retreating backward?

"My lord, it's the right time to break through at this time."

Unexpectedly, Ma Chao looked obsessively at Cao Jun who was retreating in the distance, but didn't say a word.

"Lord!"

"He's finally here..."

Ma Chao's thoughtless words stunned Ma Zhong.

He hurriedly raised his eyes to look around, but saw a large banner in the camp of Cao Jun in the distance, which was in the opposite direction of Cao Jun's retreat, slowly approaching the city.The big banner has white characters on a black background, pinched with gold and silver threads, and wrote "Sili Xiaowei, Governor Northwest". In the center, there is a big "Cao" character, which is particularly eye-catching in the sun.

The flags fluttered and the hunting sounded.

From Cao Jun's camp, a group of soldiers and horses marched out.

The iron rider is in front, and the white camel is behind.

One of the generals wears a three-pronged purple gold crown, a bright silver chain mail, an embroidered satin battle robe, and a lion jade belt around his waist.There is a liger and a tiger under his crotch, and Fang Tian draws a halberd in his palm.I saw him rushing out from under the flag gate on his horse, and went straight to the city of Yangcheng to stop.Put Fang Tian's painted halberd in front of you, build a shed with your hands, and look up.

Ma Chao suddenly raised his chest, strode to the edge of the city wall, held on to the parapet, and stared intently at the man.

"Cao Youxue, can you come and die?"

The voice was loud, still with a hint of arrogance.

Under the city, Cao Peng laughed!

"Meng Qi, but lost weight..."

"I want to come to the northwest, but it's already calm."

"Thanks to the blessings of Mengqi, Hehuang was peaceful and stable, Dou Maosuwei was awarded the head, Baima Qiang Teng Zijing sent a letter of surrender, and he has started to move from Huangzhong to Wudu to live. Guo and Xiqing were defeated by our army. He Shenlang Qiang and the remnants of the defeated generals fled to hide in the mountains, and sooner or later they would die. The Shenlang Qiang was wiped out, and all [-] Qiang were under the rule of the imperial court... By the way, in the spring of the coming year, a large number of immigrants will enter Hehuang and Huangzhong.

It doesn't take long to think, there will become the second Hexi. "

Although he had already made preparations, Ma Chao was still shocked when he heard the result from Cao Peng himself.

In other words, from now on, the Qiang Di Rebellion will hardly arise again.

The Qiangdi Rebellion, which the Han Dynasty failed to quell for hundreds of years, was resolved by Cao Peng in just a few months.

In my heart, there was a trace of admiration.

Ma Chao cupped his hands, "So, congratulations!"

"Meng Qi, why don't you surrender?"

Ma Chao smiled coldly, "Cao Peng, don't say surrender. Although Ma Chao is unworthy, he doesn't bother to be ruled by others. A man was born in the world, and he should hold a three-foot green spear and make a name for himself. Now that Ma Chao has lost, there is no one for him. You can talk about it. That is Ma Chao, who gave birth to Cao Peng...Cao Youxue, do you dare to fight against a certain family for Sanbaihe?"

Cao Peng, be silent!

He had guessed such a result a long time ago, but he was helpless.

Ma Chao is not a master who is willing to be subordinate to others.Even if he later attached to Liu Bei, he was still suppressed by Liu Bei.Even if he became General of the Five Tigers, he was far from being able to compare with others in terms of record and achievements.

Zhang Fei, you can leave the town of Nanchong.

Guan Yu guarded Jingxiang for Liu Bei.

Although Zhao Yun didn't lead an army alone, he had the glorious victories of Changbanpo and Micangshan.

As for Huang Zhong, he also made immortal feats in Liu Bei's battle to capture Hanzhong.Only Ma Chao, after returning to Liu Bei, seemed to have disappeared without any achievements.The only achievement is to deter Qiang Di from peeking at Xichuan.But what else has he accomplished?
Liu Bei is definitely on guard against Ma Chao.

In the end, Ma Chao died of depression...

Liu Bei can't control Ma Chao, can Cao Cao control Ma Chao?
Cao Peng?

Ma Chao can't be suppressed for sure, this fellow's ambition is too great!But if Ma Chao really died like this, Cao Peng felt it was a pity.After all, he was Cao Peng's childhood hero in his previous life.On the banks of the Weishui River, killing Cao Cao cut off his beard and discarded his robe. This is probably the most brilliant achievement of Ma Chao in his life...

He raised his head and stared at Ma Chao for a long time.

Suddenly Cao Peng turned around and waved to the formation.

The two riders galloped out and came to Cao Peng's side.

Ma Yunlu jumped off his horse and cried out to the top of the city, "Brother!"

"Yunlu?"

Ma Chao was startled, and a look of excitement flashed across his calm face, "Are you still alive?
I heard people say that you ran to Hehuang, but there was no news.

I've been worrying all this time, but now I'm really happy to see you still here, little sister... Yun Lu, I'm sorry for you, brother! "

When Ma Chao apologized, Ma Yunlu immediately burst into tears.

He was apologizing. When Dou Mao forced him to marry Ma Yunlu earlier, he wavered and bowed his head!
Even if it's just hypocrisy, but after all, he is using the happiness of his sister's life to realize his ambition.Later, when he heard that Ma Yunlu had run away, Ma Chao regretted it very much.I wanted to return to Wudu to look for Ma Yunlu, but Wei and Yang contacted him.Ma Chao also knows the reason why the opportunity should never come again.So after thinking for a long time, he still decided to go to war against Guanzhong first, and then look for Ma Yunlu.

Unexpectedly...

"Brother, I'm married!"

"what?"

Ma Yunlu stretched out his hand, and pulled Zhao Yun, who had dismounted from her horse, to kneel at the foot of the wall behind her.

"Zilong was accompanied by the young master, and now he is Captain Guoyi.

He treats me very well, and his martial arts are also very strong, he is on par with big brother... Big brother, surrender, you haven't blessed me yet. "

According to the rules of the Qiang people, when a girl gets married, she must have the blessing of her family.

Ma Teng is dead, and the eldest brother is the father... Not getting Ma Chao's blessing is the eternal pain in Ma Yunlu's heart.

After a moment of astonishment, Ma Chao laughed!
"Little sister, you finally won."

In my mind, a scene from my childhood emerged.

At that time, Ma Chao was already in his 20s, and he had earned the name of Jin Ma Chao.And Ma Yunlu is still a little girl, with double buns upright, lively and cute, and she likes to pester Ma Chao the most.

"In the future, I will definitely marry someone who is more powerful than my elder brother."

The two brothers and sister practiced guns. After the failure, Ma Yunlu pouted and vowed: "When the time comes, if the elder brother is bullying me, let him hit you."

At that time, Ma Chao was full of ambition, even more arrogant and unruly.

So he laughed and said, "Little sister, if you want to find a man who is stronger than elder brother, I'm afraid you won't be able to marry him in your whole life."

In a flash, many years have passed.

Ma Yunlu has grown up and found a man he can rely on.

Zhao Yun described him as handsome, and after two battles between Changbanpo and Hehuang, he exuded a strong murderous aura.

Ma Chao was very pleased with the unique temperament that combined fighting and calmness.

"Little sister, big brother blesses you!"

He changed the subject suddenly, and said to Zhao Yun: "You have to take good care of my little sister, if you dare to feel sorry for her in the slightest, I will not forgive you."

Zhao Yun held Ma Yunlu's hand and nodded vigorously towards Ma Chao on the top of the wall!

"Cao Peng, how dare you fight me!"

Cao Pengce stepped forward immediately, stared at Ma Chao for a long time, and sighed softly, "Meng Qi, you have been exhausted after living in Yangcheng for a long time. If I win you now, it will be invincible. I ordered people to prepare food, grass, wine and vegetables, please Meng Qi." Eat well and have a good night's rest. At noon tomorrow, you and I will have a good fight, how about it?"

While talking, Cao Peng waved his hand, and saw a group of soldiers pushing more than a dozen carts of grain and grass to the city.

Then Cao Peng turned his horse's head and walked slowly towards the camp.

"Brother..."

Ma Yunlu was very reluctant, and cried towards the top of the city.

Ma Chao waved to her, then turned and left.

"Yunlu, let's go."

"But……"

"For Meng Qi, this is the best home.

In fact, the son also hoped that he could surrender, but after Meng Qi surrendered, I am afraid that it will be difficult to have the opportunity to display his talents in this life.It is better to die in battle than to die in depression.If I were him, I would never surrender. "

In Zhao Yun's heart, he couldn't help feeling a little sour.

They are all handsome in the present, but his luck is better, and he is not as ambitious as Ma Chao...

Zhao Yun can understand Ma Chao's thoughts!
Ma Chao had disappeared, leaving only Ma Yunlu weeping sadly.

Zhao Yun finally persuaded Ma Yunlu to go back.The moment they left, Ma Chaozhong reappeared under the flag gate, silently watching the backs of Ma Yunlu and Zhao Yun, with tears in his eyes.

"Ma Zhong, go and bring in the grain and grass."

"My lord, beware of fraud!"

Ma Chao smiled slightly, "Although Cao Peng is cunning, he is an upright man. At this time, he will definitely not have any tricks. Just pull food and grass into the city, so that the sons and daughters can have a full meal."

"Here!"

Ma Zhong led the people and hurried down the tower.

The city gate opened, and he rushed out of the city with a team of soldiers and horses, and pulled the grain carts parked outside into the city.

In an instant, bursts of cheers came from Yangcheng.

A strange smile flashed across Ma Chao's face, "Cao Peng, you are a soldier who surrenders without fighting, you are really brilliant!"

It is conceivable that Ma Jiajun, who is full, will definitely be grateful to Cao Peng.

The previous morale was also disintegrated...

Ma Chao knew it was a trick, but he couldn't just watch the boys kill each other and cannibalize themselves.

He looked up to the sky and sighed, and said to himself: "Forget it, but it's all about your Cao Peng's prestige."

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
That night, Cao Peng was about to take a rest when he heard a commotion outside.

Could it be that Ma Chao stole the camp?
He hurriedly rushed out of the big tent, but saw all the soldiers gathered at the gate of the camp, looking towards Yangcheng.

In Yangcheng City, the flames shot up to the sky!
Cao Peng was startled, and hurried over to watch.

"what happened?"

Just after getting the news, Zhao Yun and his wife who hurried over stood at the gate with surprised expressions.

"Look, general... It seems that someone came out of Yangcheng."

Cao Peng hurriedly looked in the direction of the soldier's finger, and saw torches were lit on the head of Yangcheng City, the gate was wide open, and groups of soldiers walked out of the city slowly.The leader, dressed in loyalty and filial piety, led a horse with a golden crown and a white dragon, and walked slowly towards Cao Ying.

"Ma Zhong?"

Ma Yunlu recognized at a glance that the man was Ma Zhong.

He hurried forward and asked loudly.

Zhao Yun, on the other hand, followed immediately, holding the Jinghong Sword, and looked at the other party vigilantly.

Ma Zhong stopped a dozen steps away from Ma Yunlu, suddenly thumped, and knelt on the ground.

"Girl, eldest son, he..."

"What happened to my brother?"

"Young master, commit suicide!"

Like a thunderbolt, it exploded in Ma Yunlu's ears.

Was her last relative gone?

"Impossible, didn't the eldest brother say that we will fight the young master tomorrow?"

"The eldest son said that he could not kill Mr. Cao, and he also did not want Mr. Cao to kill him.

So it doesn't matter whether you win or lose... In fact, he already lost six years ago.The eldest son has a letter to General Cao.Then he set fire to the government office.When I rushed in, the eldest son had already committed suicide! "

If Ma Chao killed Cao Peng, Cao Cao would definitely avenge Cao Peng and kill Ma Yunlu and Zhao Yun to vent his anger.

And he knew better that Cao Peng was not someone to wait for.

Six years ago, he couldn't beat Cao Peng.

Six years later, he was in his prime and began to decline.And what about Cao Peng?At the age of 27, it is the peak time.Ma Chao thought that he might not be able to defeat Cao Peng, but he was arrogant and unwilling to die at the hands of Cao Peng.The only person in the world who can kill Ma Chao is Ma Chao himself.

In the end, Ma Chao chose to commit suicide...

In Ma Chao's letter, Cao Peng was entrusted to take good care of Ma Yunlu.

He also told Zhao Yun that he must never do anything wrong to Ma Yunlu... His beloved mount, as well as his weapons and armor, were given to Zhao Yun and his wife.And ask Ma Yunlu to settle Ma Zhong well.

This is the last retainer of his Ma clan.

Ma Yunlu passed out on the spot.

Zhao Yun was so scared that he hugged Ma Yunlu and called out repeatedly.

As for Cao Peng, he sighed endlessly.As Ma Chao said in his letter, this may be his best destination.

A man should live vigorously, and die majesticly!
Historically, he died of depression.

now……

For Ma Chao, Cao Peng really didn't know what kind of feelings he had.In the previous life, I worshiped him as a child, and then I disdain him later.He thinks Ma Chao is ruthless, cruel and hateful.But thinking about it carefully, Ma Chao's ending, after Ma Teng married another bride, set the tone.If Ma Chao's father is not Ma Teng, or if Ma Teng can treat Ma Chao as usual, maybe there will be no misfortune later!
So, half of Ma Chao's cruelty and cruelty is due to Ma Teng...

When Ma Chao died, Yangcheng was destroyed.

The [-] Ma family troops in the city surrendered immediately.

After dawn, Cao Peng, Xu Huang and Shi Tao walked into Yangcheng side by side.

Looking at the dilapidated city, all three of them felt infinite emotion.

"My lord, what's the next step?"

Shi Tao's sudden question made Cao Peng startled.

"Next?"

Cao Peng scratched his head, and said softly: "Xiao Zhi led his troops into the Meridian Road and attacked Hanzhong by surprise. I don't know what the result will be.

Expect results soon!

If Hanzhong is won, I am afraid there will be a period of rest.In the past two years, Your Majesty has repeatedly used troops, and the national strength is quite tight, so he may not agree to our continued use of troops.It's good to take a rest, since I, Captain Sili, haven't done a good job since I took office.Pingjing in the northwest, Jia Liangzhou will leave Chang'an in the near future.He has urged me many times, and I am going back to Chang'an to have a good rest. "

"Tao wants to go to Chang'an with the young master, I wonder if it is possible?"

"Why is that?"

Cao Peng was startled, and looked at Shi Tao in surprise.

Shi Tao is now the prefect of Hanyang, with a promising future.If you suddenly want to go to Chang'an with yourself, don't you want to give up your current great foundation?

"Liangzhou, Yuanzhi is enough.

Tao has lived in Liangzhou for many years, and he is really tired.Now the son is the captain of Sili, and he also hopes to follow him. "

It's time to give up Liangzhou!

Liangzhou has developed to this stage, if Cao Peng keeps controlling it, it will not be a long-term solution after all.

Xu Shu and Huang Zhong, together with Meng Jian, are enough to guarantee Cao Peng's interests in Liangzhou.Hanyang, the land of right and wrong.If it is always in the hands of Cao Peng, I am afraid Cao Cao will have some suspicions in his heart...

Abandoning Hanyang is the best way to keep Hexi.

After all, the area of ​​Hexi is getting bigger and bigger. At the beginning of Jian'an 14th, Cao Cao ordered the establishment of Wuguan in Shizuishan.In this way, there are five towns inside the pass, eleven towns outside the pass, a total of sixteen counties, and the scale even exceeds that of Longxi County.

Cao Peng understood what Shi Tao meant, and after pondering for a moment, he said softly: "Guangyuan, your talent lies in governing the region. It would be a pity to follow me to Chang'an... Well, since you are tired, come with me to Chang'an Rest for a while. If Xiao Zhi wins Hanzhong, you can go to Hanzhong to take up the post.

Although in a short period of time, there will be no war in Hanzhong.

But take precautions, the king will send troops to Xichuan sooner or later, and Hanzhong will become an important hub at that time.

You go to manage Hanzhong well. Once a war breaks out, you will have a heavy responsibility. "

Shi Tao thought for a while, then nodded in response.

The conversation between the two did not hide Xu Huang's back, so Xu Huang could hear it clearly.Cao Peng has everything to say, so he didn't hide it from Xu Huang.But in Xu Huang's heart, he felt that Cao Peng regarded him as a friend.

There are many intersections with Cao Peng, especially when they were in Jingzhou, the two cooperated several times and their relationship was very close.

I can't help but feel a lot of emotion in my heart.

The lord can have a nephew like Cao Peng who thinks of everything for him, so why worry about the big things not going to happen?And under Cao Peng's command, there is such a counselor as Shi Tao who considers everything for him, so why worry about the family business not prospering?

Most importantly, Cao Peng took the lead in everything.

When everyone's eyes were still fixed on the northwest, Cao Peng's eyes had already turned to the southwest...

Fazheng and Dianman secretly sent troops to Hanzhong?
Xu Huang didn't know.

Now that I hear it, I am even more surprised...

Shi Tao led his people down to deal with the affairs in the city.Xu Huang and Cao Peng walked down the tower side by side. When they were about to mount their horses, Xu Huang waved his hand suddenly to signal the surrounding soldiers to step aside, and then said to Cao Peng, "Youxue, I have something to ask."

"It's fair to say that it doesn't matter."

Xu Huang took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "I have a son named Gai who is sixteen years old.

I'm ashamed to say that the child is not good at studying, and he makes troubles all day long, which is really a headache.I thought about it, instead of letting him stay at home, it would be better to let him learn some skills from you with his friends, so that he will have a skill in the future.

only……

It's presumptuous to mention this matter, please don't blame me if you learn from me. "

Of course Cao Peng knew that Xu Huang had such a son named Xu Gai.

And I also heard that that kid is also a troublemaker, leading a group of people all day long to find someone to fight or to gamble.For this reason, Xu Huang often has to apologize to the sufferer for him.

However, why did the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty choose themselves?
Cao Peng was puzzled, but he would not refuse.

He knew that this was a kind of kindness that Xu Huang released to him.

Of course, Cao Peng would like to make friends with the famous five sons in the future.Although the two had surrendered many times, they did not have a deep friendship.What about it?It's Xu Huang who is careful and never joins cliques. What's the second thing?The relationship between the two has not reached that point.Now that he proposed it on his own initiative, it is naturally impossible for Cao Peng to refuse.

"I'm afraid it's delaying the young master."

But Xu Huang smiled, "If I can take the time to look like your little Di, I'd like to see it too."

Cai Di, married Cao Jie.

Although not yet married, but it is a certainty.

Before getting married, he is already a captain riding!God knows what kind of future he will have when he gets married?
In Xudu city, I don't know how many people are envious.

Xiahoudun even complained in private: "If I had known this, I would have told the lord first... There are five children in my family, can't I find someone who can be worthy of a girl? The boy is really cunning."

Cao Peng couldn't help laughing!
To be honest, he also had a headache about it.

He is Cao Cao's nephew, but he married Cai Wenji, and Cai Di became his son...

In this way, the seniority between him and Cao Cao is a bit messed up!

So much so that now, there is an embarrassing situation where he has transitioned from the second generation of Cao to the first generation of Cao.Even Xia Houyuan wrote to him and scolded him: It's fine if you married Cai Yan, why did you ask the king to marry your son again.

Then, my father-in-law, should I call you brother or son-in-law?
Cao Peng didn't know how to answer this question.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Cao Peng ordered people to collect Ma Chao's body.

At the same time, Zhao Yun was asked to accompany Ma Yunlu to bury Ma Chao...

Ma Teng is dead, and Ma Chao is also dead... The grievances between father and son between two generations seem to melt into smoke overnight.In Ma Chao's letter, he hoped that his body could be buried with Ma Teng.There are also Ma Dai, Ma Xiu, and Ma Tie, who has already turned into dry bones.As the only surviving member of the Ma family, Ma Yunlu naturally took on this important task.Cao Peng asked Xu Huang to find Ma Dai and Ma Xiu's body, and at the same time sent someone to Didao to tell Xu Shu to take out Ma Teng's body.After meeting at one place, Ma Yunlu will transport all the coffins to Wuwei for burial.As the son-in-law of the Ma family, Zhao Yun naturally had to accompany him.

Cao Peng simply gave Zhao Yun a big vacation and asked him to accompany Ma Yunlu to handle the matter in peace.

Immediately, Cao Peng and Xu Huang parted ways, and rushed to Chang'an with Shi Tao.

As for Hanyang, Shi Tao has already made arrangements and recommended Jia Xing to succeed him as Hanyang prefect.

September of the 14th year of Jian'an, late autumn!

Cao Peng and his party traveled long distances and returned to Chang'an.

On the first day Cao Peng arrived in Chang'an, Jia Xu took his team to Longxi to take over Liangzhou.

As for Xia Houlan, through discussions between Jia Xu and Cao Peng, she temporarily took the post of prefect of Wudu County.

After Cao Cao's official appointment is issued, will Xia Houlan continue to serve as Wudu, or will he be used elsewhere?Cao Peng didn't know, anyway, one thing is certain, Xia Houlan's position will not be lower than two thousand stones.

After arriving in Chang'an, Cao Peng rested for two days.

Two days later, Cao Ji and Wang Mai set off to Xudu to take office.

Cao Peng sent the two of them to Baqiao, and then reluctantly said goodbye.

As soon as he returned to the mansion, he saw Pang Tong excitedly approaching him and grabbed Cao Peng's arm, "Ah Fu, great joy, great joy!"

"Hanzhong?"

Cao Peng was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted immediately.

Pang Tong nodded again and again, "That's right, the Hanzhong victory report, Xiaozhi has really taken down Nanzheng, and Zhang Lu surrendered..."
