Three Kingdoms: The blind box draws Da Qiao at the beginning

Chapter 325 The Huns ask for surrender? Coming?

Cao Cao surrendered.

Lu Yi took Cao Cao and his army back to Zitong that day.

In Zitong, Lu Yi held a grand banquet to welcome Cao Cao and others to abandon the dark side and join the bright side.

The next day, Lu Yi asked Xu Shu to leave a few soldiers as a defensive force. Other soldiers, including the Jingzhou Army and Cao Cao, rushed to Xudu with a large army.

Now that Cao Cao has surrendered, there is no war in Liangzhou, Hanzhong and Guanzhong.

Plus Yizhou surrendered.

There is no point in leaving a large army here in the west.

This large army could only rush to Xudu, ready to attack the Zhao State in the north at any time.

Lu Yi, on the other hand, took Cao Cao, the civil and military officials who had served under Cao Cao, their families, Zhang Xiu, Nangong Yan, Shi Huan, two thousand Lu family children, and Gao Shun's thousand heavy cavalry from the trapped camp to prepare to go south to Chengdu. , met all the civil and military officials of Yizhou, and then returned to Wuxian.

Along the way, Cao Cao seemed to be very talkative and often brought Lu Yun together to chat.

This cruel and suspicious hero in the original history, at this moment, looks more like a kind and kind old man.

Lu Yi saw that Lu Yun and Cao Cao often got tired of being together, so he didn't bother to care.

When they arrived in Chengdu, Huang Gai and Liu Bei had already led all the civil and military officials from Yizhou to rush outside the city to greet them.

Lu Yi met with these civil and military officials one by one.

When he came to Zhang Ren, he saw Zhang Ren standing next to Liu Zhang. He didn't look happy, and Lu Yi wasn't angry either.

Lu Yi asked Zhang Rendao: "General Zhang, are you not convinced?"

Liu Zhang hurriedly pulled down Zhang Ren's sleeve and signaled him to look good.

Zhang Ren glanced at Liu Zhang, then reluctantly clasped his fists at Lu Yi, turned his head and said: "Don't dare! King Wu, you are so superior, I am just a subordinate general, why do you have the right to be dissatisfied?"

Liu Zhang's face turned pale.

Just as he was about to continue to persuade Zhang Ren, Lu Yi smiled and said to Liu Zhang: "There is no need to worry, Mr. Liu, Gu is not that stingy yet."

Liu Zhang smiled coquettishly.

Lu Yi saw that Zhang Ren still had no expression on his face, and said to the officials around him: "Gentlemen, I guarantee that General Zhang Ren will also be convinced later."

Everyone looked at Lu Yi strangely.

Even Huang Gai was a little embarrassed.

During this time, he was based in Chengdu and tried to persuade Zhang Ren. However, Zhang Ren was not Fazheng, Mengda and others.

This is a tough nut to crack.

Zhang Ren only had Liu Zhang as his lord in his heart.

Now he was forced to surrender, not because he had the intention to seek refuge with Wu, but because he simply did not want Liu Zhang to be implicated.

Otherwise, Zhang Ren might fall out at any time.

King Wu must have wanted to deal with Zhang Ren the same way he dealt with other officials.

However, Zhang Ren would not accept it.

In Zhang Ren's eyes, Zhang Ren looked down upon any kind of benevolent and righteous king.

Huang Gai had asked Liu Zhang to show up before, but Zhang Rendu still looked the same.

Zhang Ren glanced at Lu Yi and was noncommittal.

He also snorted in his heart.

Dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction.

After it was confirmed that Liu Zhang was fine, he resigned and went into seclusion.

A loyal minister will not serve two masters.

He, Zhang Ren, can die, but he will never change his ways and join the King of Wu again.

No matter how good this King of Wu is!

Lu Yi took one look at Zhang Ren's appearance, chuckled, clapped his hands and said, "General Zhang Xiu, it's time to come out and meet your second junior brother."

All the civil and military officials around looked at Lu Yi in confusion.

General Zhang Xiu?

Second Junior Brother?

Zhang Ren was stunned for a moment when he heard the name "Zhang Xiu" and looked around hurriedly.

Behind Lu Yi, and behind Nangong Yan, Shi Huan, Cao Cao, Xun You and others, a big man wearing armor, a sword hanging on his waist, and a spear in his left hand squeezed over from behind the crowd.

Zhang Ren opened his eyes wide and looked up and down Zhang Xiu with excitement.

Zhang Xiu came to Lu Yi and hugged Lu Yi.

Lu Yi nuzzled towards Zhang Xiu and Zhang Ren.

Zhang Xiu hummed, then turned around, walked towards Zhang Ren, and stopped five steps in front of Zhang Xiu.

The beard on Zhang Ren's lips trembled slightly.

Zhang Xiu looked down at the man in front of him who was one head shorter than himself but looked unusually tall, and said in a deep voice: "A little cold light arrived first, and then the gun shot out like a dragon!"

The surroundings fell silent in an instant.

Everyone looked at Zhang Ren who was extremely excited, with curiosity on their faces.

Zhang Ren looked at Zhang Xiu and said this. Tears welled up in his eyes and his voice trembled as he said, "Even if the enemy is outnumbered and I am outnumbered, I can still kill the enemy general in the midst of thousands of troops!"

Zhang Xiu then grinned, opened his hands, held Zhang Ren's shoulders, and said loudly: "Second Junior Brother, I finally see you! I have heard King Wu and Junior Brother talk about you many times! Yes, I didn't give it to Master. His old man is a disgrace!”

Zhang Ren also stretched out his hand and held Zhang Xiu's arms. Tears welled up in his eyes and he laughed and said: "Elder brother, I often hear Master talk about you. I originally thought that we would never meet each other in this life. Unexpectedly, There is still a time to meet in this life!”

Zhang Xiu nodded heavily and then said: "Junior brother is in Xuzhou this time and has no time to come over. Later, our two brothers will ask the King of Wu to send us to Xuzhou to meet with junior brother."

"We three brothers will gather together, and then we will fight together on the battlefield to show our majesty and let the whole world know about it."

"Master, there is not a single disciple taught by this old man who is a coward!"

Zhang Ren wiped his tears and then asked: "Master, he also accepted a junior brother? Master, how many disciples did he accept after me?"

Zhang Xiu said: "It's just me, you, and my three junior brothers."

Zhang Xiu smiled and said: "Second Junior Brother, you may be the worst in martial arts among our three Junior Brothers!"

Zhang Ren's expression suddenly changed and he said: "Impossible! The old master said that my qualifications are better than yours! Moreover, before he left, he also said that he would never meet a disciple with better qualifications than me."

Zhang Xiu laughed for a while, and then said: "When our senior brothers meet the younger junior brother, you can have a discussion with him, and you will know."

With that said, he pulled Zhang Ren to Lu Yi and said: "Second Junior Brother, come and join me in requesting King Wu to send us to Xuzhou to make contributions together with Junior Brother!"

Everyone: "."

Cao Cao: "."

He had previously wondered why Lu Yi had so many generals under his command, even his second brother-in-law Zhuge Liang, but why he had to take Zhang Xiu with him.

So, is it because of this?

Thinking of Zhang Xiu, Cao Cao felt a pain in his heart again.

His eldest son died in the hands of him and Jia Xu!

But now, revenge is clearly out of the question.

Lu Yi looked at Zhang Ren with a smile.

Zhang Ren glanced at Lu Yi and looked at Zhang Xiu with some embarrassment.

Zhang Xiu said angrily: "Why are you so embarrassed?"

"Let me tell you, without King Wu, I would have died a long time ago, and my junior brother would not know where he is!"

"It was King Wu who accepted my junior brother and me, and made our junior brother the General of the Guard!"

"It was also King Wu who told me about the existence of you and my junior brother."

Zhang Ren looked at Liu Zhang.

Liu Zhang hurriedly stepped forward and said: "General Zhang Ren, now, I am no longer your lord, and the King of Wu is everyone's lord. There is nothing wrong with your so-called 'loyal minister who does not serve the two masters'!"

Zhang Ren took a deep breath, then knelt down on one knee towards Lu Yi and said loudly: "The criminal Zhang Ren is willing to swear allegiance to the King of Wu to the death!"

Lu Yi helped Zhang Ren up, grabbed Zhang Xiu and Zhang Ren's hands, held them together, and said: "The beauty of adulthood is a beautiful thing, so why ask for it?"

"You two senior fellow apprentices have a good time together today."

"In a few days, you will take five hundred soldiers and rush to Xuzhou to meet Zhao Yun."

"When Changshan County is captured, I will find an opportunity to accompany you to visit your master's graveyard and pay homage to his spirit in heaven."

Zhang Xiu hurriedly thanked him.

Zhang Ren was stunned for a moment.

The old master has passed away?

However, he soon came back to his senses. Master, the old man was already very old when he said goodbye to him and went to tour the world.

Death is indeed reasonable.

Zhang Ren also thanked him.

Lu Yi then invited everyone to gather at the Chengdu government office.

Huang Gai had already prepared a banquet.

At the banquet, everyone drank and drank, and it was very lively.

All civil and military officials stood up and toasted Lu Yi.

After three rounds of drinking, Lu Yi found Wu Yi, the former Yizhou doctor, expressed his trust in him, and proposed to take his sister Wu Yun as his concubine.

Wu Yi quickly asked someone to call Wu Yun out.

Wu Yun is only in her early twenties now, and she does look very pleasant.

Although she is not as beautiful as Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, she is not comparable to ordinary women.

After the banquet, Lu Yi took Wu Yun into the bedroom.

The next day, Lu Yi held another meeting in the government office to arrange the transfer of some officials in Yizhou.

Among them, Wu Yi, the former Yizhou doctor, was promoted to the general of Zhenxi and led the Yizhou pastoralist.

Liu Zhang was transferred to Yongan County Sheriff.

Fazheng was transferred to Shangshu Pushe, and officials such as Li Yan, Meng Da, Zhang Song, and Huang Quan temporarily returned to Wuxian County with Lu Yi to wait for the specific transfer order from the Wuxian Shangshu Desk.

Five days later, Zhang Xiu and Zhang Ren set off from Chengdu and rushed to Xuzhou to join Zhao Yun.

Huang Gai and Liu Bei led all Yizhou officials to Wu County.

As for Lu Yi, he took Cao Cao, Xun You and others to Wancheng.

The reason for doing this is to show Cao Cao and the scholars in the world that as Cao Cao's son-in-law, although he is the king of Wu, he will not lack the filial piety that he should fulfill.

A group of people rushed to Wancheng.

Xu Shu, who had already arrived at Xudu, also arrived with Jia Xu and a few others.

When Lu Yi rushed to Wancheng, Xu Shu, Jia Xu and others came to greet him.

Seeing Cao Cao, Xu Shu hurriedly whispered to Lu Yi: "King Wu, can you move?"

Lu Yi followed Xu Shu and left in confusion.

Jia Xu also followed.

The three of them stood far away from the crowd.

Jia Xu knelt down towards Lu Yi.

Lu Yi quickly pressed his arm and said, "Wen He, what are you doing?"

Jia Xu insisted on kneeling down.

Lu Yi said solemnly: "Is it because you and General Zhang Xiu killed Cao Ang, Dian Wei and others?"

Jia Xu nodded and said: "In the past, the old minister and Duke Cao were enemies——"

Lu Yi interrupted him and said angrily: "Come on, stop showing off like this! Are you the kind of person who is just trying to kill a donkey? Not to mention that you and General Zhang Xiu also made contributions to the state of Wu."

Xu Shu also said to Jia Xu: "Lieutenant, there is no need for you to worry about this."

Jia Xu then stood up and said to Lu Yi: "Old minister, I have one more thing. I hope King Wu can forgive me."

Lu Yi said: "You say."

Jia Xu said: "Gong Cao came to Wancheng this time to pay homage to his eldest son."

Lu Yi hummed.

Although Cao Cao didn't mention this, it is understandable that he insisted on coming here when he was in Chengdu.

Jia Xu took a long breath and said in a low voice: "Actually, during the Battle of Wancheng that day, Cao Gong's eldest son and others were all quartered. At that time, everyone was in a melee. Who would care who was killed? who?"

"Finally, when the old minister was cleaning up the battlefield, he picked up their seals and asked the soldiers. He was convinced that someone had seen them being killed, and then he was convinced that these people died in the battle."

Lu Yi: "."

Jia Xu glanced at Cao Cao from a distance again and said: "The reason why there are graves of Cao Ang and others in Wancheng are all fake. When Cao Cao wanted to conquer Wancheng for the second time, the old minister asked General Zhang Xiu to put the corpses in casually, and then Several false tombs were erected.”

Lu Yi: "."

Jia Xu shrank his neck and said, "What if it was not King Wu who led your army to conquer Wancheng that day, but Cao Cao? With these tombs, we can all save our lives."

Xu Shu was also speechless.

It turns out that this was the reason why Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu opened Wancheng to surrender that day?

He thought that Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu really submitted sincerely.

But I didn't expect that they had already made two preparations!

Xu Shu looked at Lu Yi worriedly.

At this time, it would not look good to fall out again.

Lu Yi looked at Jia Xu's cowering look and wanted to roll his eyes.

Sure enough, this is something this old fox can do.

In order to survive, he would resort to any despicable means.

You can even use other people's corpses to fake it!

But what can I say?

Can you really fall out with Jia Xu because of this matter now?

Not to mention, Jia Xu made great achievements when he defeated Yuan Shao before.

Thinking of this, Lu Yi took a deep breath and said: "I know it. This matter ends here. The real person is buried in that tomb."

Jia Xu hummed.

Xu Shu also breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Yi then quickly walked towards Cao Cao, forced a smile and said: "Father-in-law, Wen He just told me that my brother and the others died in the battle before, and he did collect their bodies and bury them alive."

"At first, everyone was their own master. I asked my father-in-law not to blame Wen He and General Zhang Xiu."

"If they had known that this would be the case now, I believe they would not have done this."

Cao Cao glanced at Jia Xu who came over, and said with some gratitude on his face: "How can I blame them? At first, it was all my fault. Today, I originally just wanted to pay homage to them, but I never thought about them. And he was buried well.”

Looking at Jia Xu, Cao Cao bowed and said, "Can you please take me to their cemetery, Captain?"

Jia Xu made a gesture of invitation in front.

Everyone followed Jia Xu away until they came to the edge of the Jishui River outside Wancheng City, where they saw three tombs.

Tombstones were erected in front of the three tombs.

A tombstone reads "Cao Ang's Tomb".

A tombstone reads "Tomb of Cao Anmin".

A tombstone reads "Dian Wei's Tomb".

Cao Cao saw these three tombs, walked over with heavy steps, and finally knelt in front of Dian Wei's tombstone and prostrated on the ground.

Lu Yi looked at Jia Xu.

This bad old man still does it in a decent way.

Jia Xu met Lu Yi's gaze and closed her eyes with a guilty conscience.

Out of sight and out of mind.

Cao Cao knelt down and worshiped Dian Wei for a long time before he got up and stood in front of Cao Ang's tombstone. He looked at the tombstone dreamily and murmured in a low voice.

Lu Yi stood far away with the others.

At this moment, a soldier rushed over.

Xu Shu hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him.

The soldier handed a bamboo tube to Xu Shu and said: "General Taishi Ci sent you a hundred thousand urgent messages!"

Xu Shu took the bamboo tube, walked quickly behind Lu Yi, handed the bamboo tube to Lu Yi, and said in a low voice: "This is a urgent request from Tai Shi Ci!"

Lu Yi took the bamboo tube doubtfully and opened it.

After Cao Cao surrendered, Lu Yi had someone send a letter of Liangzhou Mu to Ma Chao, and asked Ma Chao to serve as Liangzhou Mu.

At the same time, he asked his soldiers to take the seal of King Liang to guard Shangluo, and then prepared to unite Taishi Ci, who was annexing the state pastoral officials, to lead troops to take over Chang'an, Luoyang and other places.

At this time, what is Taishi Ci so anxious about?

Could it be that high-ranking cadres are rebelling now?

Pulling out a piece of paper from the bamboo tube, I saw a few scrawled words written on it: The Xiongnu Chanyu Huchuquan sent someone to ask for surrender, and the envoy has arrived at the Chang'an government office. King Youxian went to Bei and led his troops to burn, kill, and loot outside the city of Chang'an, taking away hundreds of young women and babies. How to deal with this?
