Chapter 105 Tiger and Leopard Riding(2/2)

After changing his clothes, he and Cao Peng rode away and went straight to Cao Zhen's residence.

Cao Zhen lived in a small street behind Sikong Mansion. The environment was very elegant. It was a three-entry courtyard with a total of more than 20 houses.

When Cao Peng and Dianman arrived, Cao Zhen had just finished practicing martial arts and had dinner with Cao Zun.

Zhu Zan has already gone to Luoyang to take up his post, but Cao Zun has not yet left. There is news from Zhong Yao that he will leave for Chang'an in early August.

Cao Zun is an orphan, so he has been living with Cao Zhen.

"Brother, please do me a favor."

Cao Peng sat down and talked while waiting for Cao Zhen to have breakfast.

Cao Zhen asked: "What's the matter?"

"I want to invite someone here."

Cao Peng told the people he wanted to invite and the conditions.

"You also know that my father is an honest man and doesn't understand anything about the court. If there is no understanding person to help him, it is easy to get into trouble. However, this person must understand and have outstanding character. In case he is bought by someone.

, or if you deliberately cause harm, my father will be unlucky."

Cao Zhen also heard that Cao Ji wanted to send Zhuye to serve as a supervisor.

To be honest, Cao Zhen didn't take seriously a small Zhuye prison order. If Cao Peng hadn't asked him for help, he probably wouldn't have even listened.

"As for people who are idle at home, I know a little bit about them.

But the problem is, they may not be willing to agree... You also know that those people are very arrogant. They can refuse even Cao Gong's conquest, let alone a small Zhuye supervision order? You are right,

You must know the rules of the court, and you must have a pure and good character... You have no family background, no fame, and you must be talented. Ah Fu, your requirements are really too high, I can't think of them at the moment."

Cao Peng frowned and said, "I'm just asking."

Cao Zun remained silent. After finishing his meal, he put down his bowl and chopsticks and coughed lightly.

"Zidan, if we follow Ah Fu's request, I would probably be hard-pressed to find a few of them even if I searched all over the city. However, I do think of one person."

"who?"

"Hou Sheng, do you remember?"

Cao Zhen pointed at Cao Zun with a look of surprise.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, who is Hou Sheng?"

Cao Peng had never heard of such a name, and he didn't seem to be mentioned in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

However, Cao Zhen did not answer, but pondered for a moment and shook his head, "Hou Sheng is not suitable. That person... has the talent, but his family background is not suitable. The Tongtan Hou family can be regarded as a prominent family in Shangdang. Mo

Even if he is said to be helping Uncle Cao, he may not be willing to agree to it even if he is asked to serve as the supervisor of the various industries."

"Hou Sheng, who is it?"

Dianman on the side explained: "Hou Sheng is from the Hou family of Shangdang County. He had served his lord in the army to offer wine. After moving to Xu County, Dong'aling Zao only went up to clear the lord's farmland. Hou Sheng firmly opposed it, and even more I had an argument with my lord at a court meeting. At the beginning of the year, I was dismissed from the post of offering wine."

Still a big shot!

Cao Peng knew that no matter how talented and good this kind of person was, he would never come to help Cao Ji.

"Brother Six, do you have something else to say?"

Cao Zun gave a rare laugh, pointed at Cao Zhen and said: "Zidan, Ah Fu is smarter than you."

"What's the meaning?"

"Uncle Cao really doesn't need Hou Sheng, but he can ask Hou Sheng for help."

"who?"

"Do you still remember that there was an official in Hou Sheng's family named Guo Yong?"

Cao Zhen frowned and thought for a long time, shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "Well... I really don't remember. What's the background of this Guo Yong?"

"That Guo Yong is from Guangzong, and has been the head official of Tongdanhou for generations.

I have met this man before, so I have some impressions. He originally purchased goods for the Hou family, and then defected to the lord with Hou Sheng. He served as a minor official in the army. He was the secretary of Cang Cao and was responsible for managing the arsenal. When Lu Bu attacked Puyang, the arsenals of various ministries were in chaos. Only Guo Yong is under his jurisdiction, and it is clear that he is a person who is willing to do practical things. This person has no background, no reputation, and is talented. More importantly, he is very loyal and has good character. These things, They all meet Ah Fu's requirements, wouldn't they be the most suitable candidate?"

Cao Zhen heard this and nodded slightly.

"But Guo Yong is Hou Sheng's retainer, will Hou Sheng let him out?"

Cao Zun smiled and said, "Whether he is released or not is not up to him, Hou Sheng... The Tongtan Hou family is no longer the Hou family it used to be. Shangdang County has been wiped out after wars. The Hou family has long been in decline now. Hou Sheng defected to his lord, all he wanted was to restore his family's reputation.

He is feeling depressed now, and I heard that he drinks to drown his sorrows all day long.

Zidan, it’s better to let Uncle Zilian come forward in this matter. The custodian asked Hou Sheng to hand him over to us honestly."

Cao Zhen smashed his mouth and laughed!

"Afu, what do you think?"

Cao Peng scratched his head, "Since it was recommended by Sixth Brother, it shouldn't be bad."

"If you agree, then I will go to my uncle to talk about it."

"There's no need to be in such a hurry...Didn't you say that you're going to visit Uncle Dian and Uncle Xu later?"

"How can we not be in a hurry?" Cao Zhen said: "My uncle will leave Xudu early tomorrow morning and return to Ye County... If we don't go now, it will be too late."

Dianman said: "My father and Uncle Xu probably haven't woken up yet, and there's no use in going there now. How about this, let's go call Datou first, and then go to visit Uncle Cao together... I guess it's impossible for Uncle Cao to keep us. Those who ate at his house... just happened to buy some food before going to visit my father and Uncle Xu. They should be awake by then, and they will probably be in time for lunch. "

"Well, that's what I said."

Seeing that Cao Zhen had made up his mind, Cao Peng said nothing more.

After all, everyone is making suggestions for him, but what about him? If Guo Yong is really suitable, it can be regarded as a worry.

In this way, Cao Zhen and Cao Zun finished their breakfast, changed their clothes, and rushed to Xu Yi's home with Cao Peng and Dianman.

Cao Zun and Dianman were in front, talking as they walked.

Although Dian Wei was imprisoned in prison, there was actually nothing serious. Therefore, Dian Man was not too worried... If he was worried, it was because he was thinking about when Dian Wei and Xu Chu would be released. Other than that, the two of them are doing very well now.

"Afu!"

"Um?"

"Last night, my lord summoned all the generals in the palace to discuss the formation of elite troops."

"oh?"

Cao Peng asked in confusion: "What kind of elite troops should we form?"

"My father has always wanted to build a strong cavalry army. He had a dream in his early years, which was to imitate Huo Qiaoqi, sweep away Mobei, and promote the power of the Han Dynasty. Unfortunately, this idea has never been realized. Yesterday, your father presented a horse

My father was very happy to win the three treasures.

He has decided that after he conquers Yuan Shu, he will imitate Gongsun Zan's white-horse followers and form the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry... I want to ask you something, can you include me through Uncle Dian? I estimate that Hu and Leopard Cavalry

The leader of the Leopard Cavalry is most likely Nori-kun Lang."

Tiger and leopard riding!

When Cao Peng heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little thump in his heart.

The Three Kingdoms was an era of iron horse fighting, and there were countless elite troops who were famous for future generations.

For example, Xia Houlan's White Horse Yi Cong, Yuan Shao's First Ascension Camp, Lu Bu's Falling Camp, and Liu Bei's White-Er Elite Troops were all very famous elite troops in later generations. Among Cao Wei's troops, Cao Wei was the most famous.

One of the troops is the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.

In his previous life, Cao Peng once played a game called "The Legend of Zhao Yun".

When the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry appears, they are obviously stronger than ordinary soldiers. An ordinary Tiger and Leopard Cavalry soldier is equivalent to an ordinary Cao General. Maybe this is exaggerated, but the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry gives Cao Peng the feeling that he is a military force.

Similar to the troops of the teaching regiment... an ordinary soldier becomes a grassroots officer. I thought that the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry was just a fiction, but I never imagined that it actually existed.

"Why do you think that Uncle Dian will become the leader of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry?"

Cao Zhen said: "Dian Zhonglang is extremely brave. With his martial arts alone, he is definitely the best in the lord's army. I heard that the lord has decided to let Xia Houheng and Cao Xiu join the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, and Dian Zhonglang is now their commander."

, doesn’t it mean that he will become the leader of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry?”

Cao Peng heard this and shook his head.

"Brother, I thought Uncle Dian would not take over the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry."

"Why?"

"Uncle Dian is not a general, and the Suwei army is acceptable, but to lead an army alone...it is impossible for Duke Cao to hand over such an elite force to his hands." Cao Peng thought for a moment, then continued: "What if?

If Xiahou Boquan and Cao Wenlie are transferred to the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, then I think the lord is likely to let the clan generals take over. Since the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is valued by Cao Gong, he will definitely pay attention to such a team.

Duke Cao may not be able to rest assured if the men and horses are handed over to others; secondly, Xiahou Boquan and Wen Lie are both relatives of Duke Cao.

Brother, if you want to join the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, it shouldn’t be too difficult. Just pay attention to which general named Cao is summoned by Duke Cao during this period... As for Uncle Dian, I think you care too much.

In eighty-nine years, he will still stay in the Huben Army and guard Cao Gong."

When Cao Zhen heard this, he couldn't help but feel convinced.

"What Ah Fu said is absolutely true, then I will pay more attention to this matter in the future."
