After being out of danger, Cao Cao changed his decadent look and gave the order: "Who is on duty tonight? Take it immediately!"
"My lord, this is Captain Zhongji of Changshui School. I will send someone to capture him right now." Xiahou Dun said in a buzzing voice.
The reason why Cao Cao did not dare to return to the camp directly was because he was worried about being ambushed again. So he went in the opposite direction and ran towards the Yangzhou military camp.
How is this possible with an entire army of five hundred people and no internal support?
So the general on duty is the most suspicious!
Even if not, there will be no problem in arresting him, and the crime of dereliction of duty is not a small one.
"How is Zilian's injury?" Cao Cao then remembered that Cao Hong was surrounded by enemies in order to protect him.
"It's nothing serious. Military doctors are already bandaging him." Xiahou Dun said.
"Go and see him." Cao Cao said.
Soon after, the scouts came to report that Changshui Colonel Zhongji was indeed rebellious and led his followers to resist desperately, but to no avail, they had already been captured.
After confirming that Cao Hong was only slightly injured, Cao Cao decided to interrogate Zhong Ji himself.
At this moment, Zhongji was tied up and was in a very embarrassed state.
"Why did you betray me?" Cao Cao asked.
Zhongji didn¡¯t speak, his expression dim.
Cao Cao was put on the instrument of torture, but Zhong Ji remained silent.
"My lord, it's getting late. You'd better go to bed early and leave this matter to me." Xiahou Dun said.
Cao Cao was frightened, and now he was sleepy and tired, so he had to say: "Don't kill people."
"Understood." Xiahou Dun said, after Cao Cao left, he glared at Zhong Ji fiercely.
The bloody night has just begun.
The next day, the panicked princes came to inquire for information.
¡°Whether they are informed or unaware, they are all here.
In fact, this is also a way to remove suspicion, as if to say: I didn't do anything, don't rely on me!
??Surprisingly, Liu Ke is also among them.
"Marquis Dongyang, what happened last night?" Liu Zhang asked. He had no disputes with the world and had no conflicts with the princes present, except Zhang Lu.
"It's nothing, I was just having fun with Brother Meng Dexian last night on a whim," Liu Kedao said.
"What do you mean? Please ask Dongyang Hou to clarify your doubts!" ??Liu Zhang said.
Everybody gathered together.
"The banquet last night was too boring, so Brother Meng Dexian and I put on a show. Each of us sent five thousand soldiers and horses to compete. I didn't expect you to be so timid" Liu Kedao.
The princes all expressed their speechlessness.
"Marquis Dongyang is right, last night was just a farce!"
Cao Cao, who was approaching, agreed.
In terms of maintaining order, both Cao Cao and Liu Ke have responsibilities.
Who makes one of them so famous and the other one the organizer?
¡°We fought like crazy last night, but luckily there were no casualties,¡± Liu Kedao said.
The battlefield has been cleaned.
"Is this really that simple?" Yuan Shao said with a dark circle under his eyes. Both the boss and the second boss had sent out troops, how could Yuan Shao be able to sleep?
Not only that, he also ordered 20,000 troops under his command to keep vigil
"It's just a simple contest." Cao Cao said. Zhong Ji had not confessed yet, so Cao Cao didn't know whether any princes were involved.
Without the help of the princes, it would be impossible to have five hundred more cavalry for no reason.
Cao Cao has already counted and found that not a single one of his cavalry is missing.
"Don't worry, everyone, my promise is still valid. Whoever accidentally falls into the autumn hunt, I will help him avenge." Liu Kedao.
"" princes.
Dare you want to hang up with us?
"Me too." Cao Cao also joined Liu Ke's camp.
Okay, if there is no excitement, everyone will disperse.
However, Dong Cheng was in panic all day long.
The foolproof assassination failed?
"They're all trash!" Dong Cheng cursed angrily.
Ma Teng on the side was unhappy and said: "The head of the country should be careful what he says."
Five hundred elites were all dispatched from Xiliang and were loyal.
They are all dead?
Ma Teng is so heartbroken!
"Marquis Huaili, I'm not talking about you, but Zhongji. With such a huge military advantage, he can still fail!""Dong Cheng hated that iron could not make steel.
"Guozhang, tell me, why did Zhongji assassinate Marquis Dongyang? If 500 cavalry attacked Cao Cao and he only had dozens of guards, how could he fail?" Ma Teng said.
"This Zhongji has made his own decisions, which is an unpardonable crime!" Dong Cheng said.
"Let's think about how to escape. Now that Zhongji has been arrested, isn't the state leader afraid?" Ma Teng said.
"Huh, Zhongji's family is in my hands, he doesn't dare." Dong Cheng said.
Without any means, how can you trust your subordinates?
However, Ma Teng was very disgusted, but for the sake of the overall situation, he endured it.
"Huailihou, do you still have dead soldiers? Just in case, we should get rid of Zhongji as soon as possible." Dong Cheng was still a little scared after all.
"The five hundred dead men are all dead and injured, where can I find more dead men for you?"
"My lord, it's not that I don't want to help, it's just that it's too late to dispatch dead soldiers from Xiliang," Ma Teng said.
"Marquis Huaili, why can't you keep a hand?" Dong Cheng sighed.
You blame me?
Ma Teng was equally angry, and the great opportunity was missed.
After this incident, the princes will definitely be cautious, and it is hard to say whether Cao Cao will leave the camp.
In the temporary prison, Zhong Ji was beaten until he was inhuman shape.
"My Lord, I'm almost out of breath." Xiahou Dun said.
"Have you checked Zhongji's residence?" Cao Cao asked.
"I checked, but found nothing, and I have sent people to Chang'an to arrest Zhong Ji's family." Xiahou Dun said.
"Okay, if Zhongji's family is still there, then the assassination was done by the princes. If they are gone, it is most likely the gang of idle ministers. Of course, they may also have united." Cao Cao said.
"It will definitely not be found out in a short time. What should Dongyang Marquis do?" Xiahou Dun said.
"Isn't a Changshui captain enough to do a good job?" Cao Cao said calmly, "Just cut him off."
One sentence determines the fate of the collection.
So, Cao Cao did another slap in the face, that is, just after he said that everything was fine last night, he chopped off Changshui Captain Zhongji who was on duty last night.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that there must be something wrong.
"Zihuan, your father's IQ is not good." Zhou Buyi said.
"" Cao Pi was speechless.
"Don't bully Zihuan all the time. Meng De's behavior is a bit eccentric. In the worst case, just stay away from him in the future." Liu Kedao.
"" Cao Pi really wanted to find a hole in the ground and crawl into it.
"Teacher, is that all?" Zhou Busuo said unwillingly.
"As expected, it was your enemy Dong Cheng who did it." Liu Kedao.
¡°Teacher, it¡¯s possible that you are trying to confuse things.¡± Zhou Buyi said.
"You are too young. The Changshui captain is not a small official. Cao Cao and Yuan Shao both served as the eighth captain. Who else can win over such a general besides someone from the imperial court?" Liu Kedao.
"Now the imperial court exists in name only, but it will be dirty if you touch it. Let the prime minister do these dirty jobs." Zhou Buyi said. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
