Zhan Meng and his team members gathered together, discussing how to deal with the current situation.
"Captain, this Han Sui is really despicable. He actually made a fuss about Ma Teng's family..."
"It's just a fuss. The key is that after taking advantage of Ma Teng's family, he actually killed them all... It's simply despicable and vicious to the extreme."
"I didn't finish the killing, but let one go back... I just heard that the girl suffered a huge change and now she has lost her soul... It's pitiful, it's sad."
After the others' quiet discussion ended, Zhan Meng said: "Although I expected Ma Teng to lose, I didn't expect him to lose so quickly and completely..."
Someone answered: "Even if we killed Zhang Wei and attracted Zhang Lu's 30,000 reinforcements, Ma Teng still couldn't defeat Han Sui's two generals... It's really disappointing."
"Probably most of the credit for Ma Teng's success in the past was due to Han Sui. It was precisely because Han Sui was behind the scenes making plans for Ma Teng that the two of them were able to stand out from the many warlords in Xiliang."
The team members expressed their opinions one after another, and it was only at the end that Zhan Meng concluded: "Most of Beidi County has been occupied. If Han Sui occupied Beidi County to free up his hands to deal with Ma Teng and Zhang Lu, I am afraid these two people will not be able to support it.
how long."
"Captain, what should we do?"
After Zhan Meng pondered for a moment, he arranged: "Yi San, Yi Wu, you go and explain the situation to the Chang'an Sili Colonel and ask for help."
After Yi San and Yi Wu got the mission, they stood up and clasped their fists and said, "Here!"
Zhanmeng looked at the remaining ten people again, with a slightly crazy smile on his lips, and said: "The remaining people come with me, and we will wait for an opportunity to go to Beidi County to cause some trouble for Han Sui!"
The style of a team is often closely related to the leader of the team.
Zhan Meng has a gentle appearance. When he is quiet, he looks like a thin and harmless scholar. But once he gets active, he is really like what his team members said, "Madman!"
These people have been following Zhan Meng for several years, and they have long since become crazy along with Zhan Meng.
At this moment, Zhan Meng just wanted to cause trouble for Han Sui with more than ten people. He was not a madman or something.
However, instead of being afraid, this group of people became excited and agitated. What are they if not a group of lunatics?
...
The war in Xiliang resumed, and the people's lives were in ruins.
While Ma Teng and other Xiliang warlords are having a hard time, Cao Cao has also been having a lot of troubles recently.
For now, the person that annoyed Lao Cao the most was Kong Rong.
When Kong Rong first joined Cao Cao a few years ago, he often wrote poems to praise Cao Cao and eulogized Cao Cao, which Cao Cao liked very much.
But as time passed, after Kong Rong took a high position, his thoughts and temperament gradually changed.
Kong Rong often interacted with celebrities from all over the world. Gradually, his arrogant character became more and more aloof, and he looked down on his colleagues around him, even Cao Cao, who he once admired.
If you brag too much with those who like to brag, you will think that you have become a bull.
Kong Rong was proud of his talent and temperament, and was determined to quell the crisis and help the Han Dynasty. However, his talents were crude and his ideas were empty, so he had not made any substantial achievements.
When he was in court, Kong Rong often went his own way and talked loudly. Moreover, what he always expressed in the court hall were some flashy and lofty remarks. What he talked about were all about laws and regulations, classics and knowledge, and their influence on the country and the people.
Not to say it is useless, but it is basically useless...it is just the same thing used by those officials in peacetime to fool the emperor.
The things he mentioned were not only highbrow and unrealistic, but also added a lot of unnecessary trouble to the court. What's even more egregious is that sometimes he would make excuses at court meetings because of some insignificant etiquette and the like.
Argued with other people for a long time.
Especially when he saw Cao Cao, Kong Rong would go up and make noises non-stop, either making empty and boring arguments or accusing Lao Cao of something wrong here and there; he also accused Lao Cao's subordinates of improper behavior, not only touching people at work but
Yu also skipped work to drink and listen to music... The noisy Cao Cao was so upset that he wanted to just draw his sword and kill him...
But Cao Cao had already caused a lot of trouble when he killed Bian Yi before.
Chen Gong took advantage of this at the beginning to instigate most of the powerful families in Yanzhou and almost sent Cao Cao away directly, so Cao Cao later became more cautious.
What's more, Kong Rong is the twentieth generation grandson of Confucius. After becoming a saint, his reputation will only be greater. Even Cao Cao can't touch him easily and can only avoid him as much as possible.
Recently, Kong Rong recommended Miheng to Cao Cao again and again, which made Cao Cao extremely annoyed.
Kong Rong came to Cao Cao to recommend his close friends Ni Heng and Ni Zhengping, who were known as "crazy men".
Cao Cao had heard of Mi Heng's reputation. It was said that he was full of knowledge at a young age and was a rare talent in the world. However, he was arrogant and not well received by others.
But Cao Cao couldn't arouse any interest in this kind of guy who only talked but couldn't do anything, so Cao Cao simply refused.
However, Kong Rong refused to give up, and even wrote "Recommended Ni Heng Biao", which made Mi Heng's praises overwhelming.
Cao Cao was forced to have no choice but to agree to meet this celebrity who was about to be praised to heaven. The place was chosen to be Cao Cao's Prime Minister's Mansion in Xuchang.
But the problem is, Cao Cao agreed to summon Mi Heng, but Mi Heng felt that Cao Cao had slighted him before, so he claimed that he was suffering from madness and should not be summoned.
Mi Heng summoned him several times and refused with various lame excuses. Although Lao Cao was angry, he felt that there was no need to argue with a madman, so he endured it and let it go.
In the next few days, Cao Cao thought that since he had already arrived in Xuchang, he might as well gather his people to get together, reminisce about old times, and keep in touch with each other.
Not only Xi Zhicai, Xun Yu, Xun You, Cao Hong, Xia Houyuan and others who lived in Xuchang, but also Lu Yan, Guo Jia, Zhao Yun and others from Chenliu County were all invited to the prime minister's house.
It is a rare opportunity to get together with old friends in the midst of a busy schedule, so the atmosphere in the Prime Minister's residence is naturally extremely warm.
However, during the third round of drinking, someone suddenly broke into the prime minister's house.
"You can't go in, you can't go in!" None of the servants in the Prime Minister's Mansion stopped the intruder.
When outsiders broke in, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became quiet.
Cao Cao sat at the head seat at the top table, put down his glass of wine with enough time, and looked at the "strange man" who dared to break into the prime minister's house at night.
Lu Yan also looked up curiously, and saw that the man was nearly eight feet tall and looked to be in his early twenties. He had a square face, sharp eyebrows and tiger eyes, and he had an awe-inspiring and fearless aura. But he was wearing a tattered scholar's uniform.
, the hair is disheveled and fluffy like wormwood, looking extremely unkempt.
Cao Cao waved his hand and asked the servants to go down.
He asked the intruder in a gentle tone: "Who is here?"
"It may be difficult for the people in the mountains and wild areas to enter the eyes of the Prime Minister."
This man actually picked it up.
Boss Cao has never been used to this kind of people, so he said: "In that case, just leave on your own. I will not hold you accountable for your rudeness."
"Haha." The man chuckled with a smile, and then said: "I heard that Prime Minister Cao is very thirsty for talents, and only those who are talented... I saw him today, but he was nothing."
"Presumptuous!" Someone finally couldn't help it. He stood up and pointed at the intruder and said, "The Prime Minister has many talents under his command, and all of you here are also rare talents in the world. How can you slander them at will?"
The man raised his head, looked around deliberately, and asked doubtfully: "Prime Minister Cao, is there anyone else here? I just seemed to hear someone talking!"
