The General of the Central Army of the Punishment of the Ninth Period was the rank of the former Emperor Liu Hong. Because the counties north of the Yellow River, including Changshan, Zhaojun, Zhongshan, Shangdang and Hanoi were all invaded by the Heishan army, the court was unable to send troops to encircle and suppress the military ranks, and the ranks were specially enfeoffed by An and the enthronement.

But I didn't expect that Zhang Yan actually used it here, and the effect was surprisingly good.

After all, the Black Mountain Army can only represent the peasant class that is almost unable to survive, but the Zhonglang Generals enthroned by the court are enough to reflect the will of the court, and can also attract some poor students, and even make the entire Pengcheng, no, the entire Xuzhou scholar class should not have great resistance.

Of course, the battle for the same thing as others is just a knife in Zhang Yan's hand. His real killer is still his Black Mountain Army and the elite soldiers of Huainan under Ji Ling.

At noon on the ninth day of the ninth month, his Heishan Army took Cao Hong's head and official seal soldiers to take over the county government offices, city gates, military camps and the county seats of Pengcheng, as well as the jurisdictions of Lu County, Wu County, Huqiu, Fuyang, Liu County and Wuyuan. Pengcheng changed from then on to Zhang Liu.

When the lights on the ninth day of the ninth month were first on, after a brief daytime renovation, he and Ji Ling finally showed their minions to Xia Pi and Donghai under Liu Bei's rule.

...

Tan State was originally the capital of Donghai County, Xuzhou. Tao Qian was appointed as the governor of Xuzhou. Later, Liu Bei was in power and moved his capital to Xia Pi.

It was already three o'clock in the hour of Xu, and Cao Bao, the prefect of Donghai County, had just lying on the bed and was called by the personal soldiers outside the door: "Report to the prefect, there is a man outside the door asking for a meeting. He said that he is your old past, and he has a great wealth to you!"

"Aren't our old and old people in Xuzhou? They all know the details of this state. What kind of wealth can they give to our state?" Cao Bao looked at his personal soldiers in surprise, thought about it, but he got up and walked into the study, "Let him come in. Since someone gives gifts to our state, he can't let him wait outside!"

The personal soldiers nodded and quietly walked out, and before they could even lead a Taoist priest about thirty years old. The Taoist priest was full of cheeks and beard, with a fat face, and a bun on his head. Although he was wearing a gray Taoist robe, he looked like a butcher.

"Who is you? How dare you pretend to be the old man of this state?" Cao Bao stared blankly for a while, and did not find any clues about this person in his mind, so he asked directly.

The Taoist priest sang a look and stepped forward and said, "Mr. Ming is really a noble man who forgets things. Could it be that Ming Duke has forgotten Cao Qingniu when he was studying together?"

Cao Qingniu?

The outline and face of the Taoist priest in front of him looked a bit similar to the slug Cao Qingniu who was following him when he was studying, but so what? If he remembered correctly, Cao Qingniu was just a concubine of the Cao family in Xuzhou. What kind of wealth can he give to this state?

Cao Bao thought for a moment and recognized that this person was his former classmate, but his eyes were still very cold: "Cao Qingniu, this state has indeed had a friendship with classmates for several years, but this state has never had a close relationship with you. Since you said that you have wealth and honor to give it to this state, you should not deceive me, otherwise this state will not care about any bullshit classmate before!"

Although Cao Bao was threatening in his words, Cao Qingniu was not panicked. Instead, he found a desk chair and sat down opposite Cao Bao, and smiled and said, "Mr. Ming may not know. I am no longer called Cao Qingniu anymore, but gave him a Dharma name, named Qingniujiao!"

"Whatever you are in this state, Cao Qingniu or Qingniujiao, aren't they all grass-eating bison?" Cao Bao smiled sarcastically, suddenly stunned, and hurriedly sat up and stared at Cao Qingniu and said, "Do you mean your name is Qingniujiao? But that greenniujiao?"

"It's that green ox horn!" Qing ox horn nodded, regardless of whether Cao Bao's personal soldiers on the side could understand the mystery of the two of them and continued, "If Zhang Shuai agreed, Ming Gong still thinks that I can bring this wealth that is so sensational?"

Cao Bao narrowed his eyes slightly and smiled coldly, and the cold light tattooed the green ox horn: "Green ox horn, since you and I know each other, then this state will not say secret words. Zhang Shuai led a million Black Mountain army to fight in Jizhou for more than ten years. This state believes that he will have many privately hidden jewelry and property.

But I heard that Zhang Shuai had abandoned Jizhou and joined Yuan Shu, and had a lot of casualties in the battle with Cao Mengde and Wang Deyu. Now he is trapped in Xiang County and is in danger. You said that Zhang Shuai was going to send his wealth to Xiang County, is he planning to let him go to Xiang County to get it himself?"

Qingniujiao laughed and a hint of mocking appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Ming Gong said exactly, but it's a pity that your lord and his soldiers did not bring you the latest news, right? To be honest, my general and General Ji Ling have already taken off the cage and are now visiting Pengcheng next to you!"

"What? Are you saying that Zhang Shuai has occupied Pengcheng?" The coldness on Cao Bao's face disappeared immediately. He immediately stood up and pointed at the green ox horn in shock.

Qingniujiao nodded and smiled slightly: "My boss knew that I was originally from the Cao clan of Xuzhou and had old friends with Ming Gong, so he was not willing to force you on the battlefield, so he specially ordered me to come and see Ming Gong off.

A good fortune, and a reminisce about the past!"

"I don't want to force each other to fight with swords, so I will give my state a good fortune? A joke!" Cao Bao slapped the desk suddenly and roared, "Hmph, Qingniujiao, what's your hero's idea about you, do you think this state doesn't know? I'm afraid it's not that easy to take my East China Sea?"

Qingniujiao was invaded in front of Yuan Shao that day, but his performance in front of Cao Bao today was perfect. He was free to advance and retreat in words, and compared with Cao Bao, he was more like the master of Tan State.

Qingniujiao patted Cao Bao on both sides and helped him sit on the desk chair, poured another glass of water and handed it to Cao Bao, then slowly said: "My husband, please be careful not to be impatient, be sure to let me finish my words first!"

"Hmph, if you want to say it, I didn't sew your mouth up!" Cao Bao glanced at Qingniujiao in anger, and leaned his back on the desk chair with his sleeves.

Cao Bao sat down, but Qingniujiao stood up: "My boss has indeed been defeated by Yuan Benchu ​​and Wang Deyu one after another, but these two are the few heroes in the world, and it is not surprising that even if they are defeated for a while, it is not surprising.

What's more, in the city of Chengfu that day, our Heishan Army almost killed Cao Mengde on the horse. Now, the whereabouts of our Majesty Fei Ting in the Zhong family are unknown. The general and General Ji plan to avenge the main force, and they will force more than 100,000 soldiers to Xuzhou to avenge the cause of Liu Bei's provocation of the battle."

"Hmph, although the Xiongwu plan in this province is not as good as that of Cao Mengde, my Tan State wall is probably far better than the Chengfu that day, right?" Qingniujiao said something about Cao Bao's painful foot, which made Cao Bao change color in anger.

Qingniujiao smiled and comforted: "Mr. Ming, I met you since childhood. I know you have great ambitions and lofty ambitions. But I would like to ask Ming Gong: Are you willing to let Liu Bei be merciless and bring the whole city of Tan State and the big-eared thief who seeks fame and reputation with you?

When I came out, my grandmaster once told me: Ming Gong is a talent of a hundred miles. The big-eared thief was jealous of the virtuous and could abuse his confidants. He actually gave up the Xia Pi, which was originally supposed to be Ming Gong, to a Sun Gan, who was ignorant of the so-called Sun Gan. It was really too much tolerate it! It was intolerable. As long as the Ming referendum was true, my grandmaster was willing to hand over the Xia Pi City to Ming Gong!"

"You're serious?" Cao Bao looked at the green ox horn excitedly, and a shiny light shone in his eyes, like a hungry wolf.

Qingniujiao took out a piece of letter from his arms and nodded solemnly: "Take it seriously!"

Cao Bao suddenly stood up, took the letter handed over by Qingniujiao and slashed it with a sword: "I have long seen that big-eared thief dislike him. Since Zhang Shuai valued this state so much, then I will be fucking!"
