Rampage through the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 163 Revisiting the Cao Family
Seeing that Zhang De was engrossed in his thoughts, Chen Gong didn't disturb him, but just stood quietly aside.

At this time, Zhang De suddenly remembered something, something that had been on his mind for a long time.So Zhang De immediately sent an order to Wu Anguo to find [-] soldiers of the Wuqi Battalion and prepare to go out early tomorrow morning, but Zhang De did not say where to go.

Early the next morning, Zhang De took Wu Anguo, Zhou Cang and the [-] Wuqiying brothers straight to Hua County, Taishan County.The distance from Beihai City to Taishan County is not very far, but the road is difficult to walk, and the cavalry will be faster.Although Zhang De's military cavalry battalion has much heavier equipment than the rangers, and their long-distance raids are much worse than those of the rangers on the grassland, the horses in the martial cavalry battalion are all tall horses from Liangzhou, and they are usually fed with fine food, so they never It is only a few hundred miles from Beihai to Hua County, but it is difficult to reach the Wuqiying.

And Zhang De couldn't go there empty-handed, so he brought a lot of gifts.Zhang De had had enough of going out without guards, so this time Zhang De specially brought Wu Anguo and Zhou Cang on the road.

After Zhou Cang and Zhang De returned to Beihai, they stayed in Zhang De's prefect's mansion. Anyway, Zhou Cang had nowhere to go temporarily.And Zhang De is not short of money, and has been offering delicious food and drink to Zhou Cang.The so-called taking people's money, cheating, Zhou Cang eats Zhang De's, uses Zhang De's, this time Zhang De goes out, and wants Zhou Cang to go with him. Let's do something, so we set out on the road with Zhang De.

In order to save horsepower, Zhang De didn't walk fast. When he arrived in Hua County, Zhang De went straight to Cao's house.

When Zhang De came to Hua County, the magistrate of Hua County was really shocked. Although there were not many 800 horses, the [-] horses ran with extraordinary momentum.When the county magistrate of Hua County saw such a large number of people coming, he thought it was a horse thief from somewhere, so he immediately organized Xiangyong to resist.After all, there are still many bandits in Taishan County.

When Zhang De approached, the county magistrate could see clearly that these people were all equipped with the same equipment, and all their weapons were shining coldly; when they were looking at the horses, all of them were tall horses, and each knight's face was full of determination. It is a trained soldier.

The county magistrate knew that these people were all officers and soldiers, and ordinary thieves did not have such good equipment, such good horses and such soldiers.But in today's troubled times, collusion between soldiers and bandits is common, so the county magistrate still hasn't relaxed.

At this time, Zhang De ordered people to raise the banner, and the county magistrate looked carefully, and saw the big characters "Beihai Wuqi Camp" on it.Zhang De did not play the banner of Beihai prefect at this time, because it was too eye-catching, and secondly, he was afraid of causing trouble.

The county magistrate gasped when he saw the flag. This is the military cavalry battalion in Beihai, Zhang De's soldiers and horses. Didn't Zhang De occupy Qingzhou just now? Why did he come here? Hua County is interested!

Zhang De saw that Xiangyong of Hua County was looking at him nervously, and knew that the other party had misunderstood him, so he hurried forward and said: "I am Zhang De, the prefect of Beihai. !"

The county magistrate came out tremblingly, and said: "The county magistrate of Xiahua County didn't know that Mr. Zhang came, and he was far away to welcome him. Soldiers come" with emphasis on the words.

Zhang De naturally understood that he brought so many people here, the other party must have thought they were looking for trouble, so he hurriedly explained: "Master County Magistrate, these are my bodyguards, I am here this time In order to pay a visit to Mr. Cao of the Cao family! Come here, bring out the gift."

Zhang De gave an order, and the knights behind immediately lifted several large boxes from the carriage behind him.When the county magistrate saw that Zhang De had brought out all the gifts, he also believed that Zhang De had come to pay a visit to Cao Song. Moreover, looking at Zhang De's subordinates, they were strong and strong, so they shouldn't embarrass a small county like him, but as the saying goes, one more thing It's better to have one less thing.What's more, the county magistrate also knew that Cao Song was no longer in Hua County.

Speaking of Cao Song, in Hua County, he was a person who sneezed three shocks. After all, Cao Song’s father thought he was one of the most powerful eunuchs back then. Cao Song himself was a high-ranking official, and Cao Song was still alive. A good son, now sitting in Luoyang, with tens of thousands of troops under him, the county magistrate of Hua County cannot afford to provoke such a character.

A few days ago, old man Cao Song received a letter from his son Cao Cao, saying that Cao Cao had settled down in Luoyang now and decided to take Cao Song to Luoyang. When Cao Song heard about it, he immediately ordered someone to pack his luggage and prepare to go to Luoyang.

So the county magistrate of Hua County immediately smiled and said: "Zhang Beihai, I'm afraid you are a step late. Mr. Cao is no longer in the small county. His family has gone to Luoyang now. Now there are only a few guards left in Cao's mansion in Hua County." The servants of the courtyard are here!"

Went to Luoyang?Zhang De immediately realized that it seemed that Cao Song had gone to seek refuge with his son Cao Cao, so Zhang De asked casually, "I don't know when Mr. Cao left?"

"Master Zhang, Mr. Cao's family left two days ago, and Mr. Zhang Kai from Xuzhou came to Hua County in person to escort Mr. Cao's family to Luoyang?" said the county magistrate.

"Oh? Zhang Kai is Tao Qian's subordinate? Why does this Zhang Kai escort Mr. Cao?" Zhang De felt a little strange and asked casually.

"I don't know about this small county either, probably because Master Tao Qian and Master Cao Cao have a good personal relationship!" Hua County magistrate said.

Cao Cao and Tao Qian have a good relationship?Zhang De didn't think so.Cao Cao met these two people when he was attacking Dong Zhuo, and he didn't think how close they were. On the contrary, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, the two great enemies in the future, had a pretty good relationship.Besides, I remember that Cao Cao's father, Cao Song, was killed by Tao Qian's generals, so Liu Bei rescued Xuzhou in the future.If it was said that Cao Cao and Tao Qian had a good relationship, Zhang De would never believe it.

Suddenly, Zhang De remembered that Cao Song, Cao Cao's father, was killed by Tao Qian's subordinates. The person who killed Cao Song was an old general of the Yellow Turban, who seemed to be called Zhang Kai.Wait, Zhang Kai, the one who escorted Cao Song this time was also Zhang Kai, the same person. Could it be that the Cao family is still doomed?It's okay for Cao Song to die, but Cao Qian?Thinking of this, Zhang De's mind suddenly got stuck.

Be calm, you must be calm!By the way, they have only been away for two days, so maybe they still have a chance now!Thinking of this, Zhang De immediately shouted: "Warrior Cavalry Battalion listen to the order, put down the extra baggage, and attack with me!"

At this time, Mr. Cao was at a loss for his situation.This Zhang Kai came under the banner of Tao Qian. Cao Song didn't doubt it, but he saw that Zhang Kai and others were all wearing official uniforms, and Zhang Kai's seals were complete. They were indeed Tao Qian's subordinates, so Cao Song He thought it must be that Tao Qian wanted to make friends with his son Cao Cao, so he specially sent someone to protect him on the road.

Zhang Kai was able to become a general of the Yellow Turban Army back then, but he had some military strength, and Zhang Kai was a tall man, so he looked like a strong general on the outside. When Mr. Cao saw Zhang Kai, he felt that he was a talent, and he could recruit for his son Cao Cao. He, so right now he was thinking about how to speak.

But Cao Song didn't know that at the same time, Zhang Kai was also thinking about himself.
