Tao Qian said in surprise: "If you let them pass through the border quietly, and if you are worried that it will reach Yuan Shao's ears and cause his unhappiness, how dare you blatantly send soldiers to escort you, Xuan Degong is not worried about this."
Liu Bei said: "The school lieutenant Zhang Kai of the lord’s subordinate was originally the Yellow Turban thief, and many of Cao Cao’s sergeants were compiled from the Qingxu Yellow Turban. Zhang Kai must be familiar with them. The lord can order Zhang Kai to guard Cao Song’s family. Secret, detective by Yuan Shao, can be pushed to Zhang Kai, only that he did it in private. In this way, you don’t have to offend Yuan Shao, but you can also bond with Cao Cao."
Tao Qian thought for a while and thought that Liu Bei's idea was good. If Yuan Shao blamed him, the big deal would be the head of Zhang Kai. When Cao Cao received Tao Qian's reply, he was naturally overjoyed, and he hurried to greet his father Cao Song. One family,
However, it was said that Cao Song’s family had more than two hundred people, drove a hundred or ten carts, full of gold and silver property, all the way to Xuzhou, Tao Qian knew that Cao Song’s family passed by, did not come forward to receive, but secretly ordered Liu Bei to send some. Wine and meat, Zhang Kai brought 500 soldiers to escort,
The five hundred soldiers under Zhang Kai were all the Yellow Turbans who surrendered to Tao Qian with him. They saw Cao Song carrying so many heavy vehicles along the way, all eyes were warm. It was early winter when the north wind started to blow. , And Zhang Kai’s soldiers had not had time to change into winter clothes. They only wore some single clothes and single armor. They were all shivering in the cold wind. On the contrary, Cao Song’s family had long put on thick brocade robes. Even the servants in his house are in cotton jackets.
Zhang Kai and his soldiers had thin clothes. They shouldn’t be cold, and naturally wanted to sleep a little longer. But Cao Song hurried on the road and stayed overnight every day, causing these soldiers to complain.
After traveling for a few days, I arrived at a desolate place. There was no village in front of you, no shop behind, and the weather turned dark again. The soldiers complained, saying that they should not rush in such a hurry, but should take a rest in the village just now. It's late,
Cao Cao’s younger brother, Cao De, was impatient. Hearing these soldiers complaining, he felt furious, raised his horse whip, and slapped his head and face to the soldiers beside him. He beat the soldier with his skin and flesh, and his mouth was swearing. "You who kill a thousand knives, my eldest brother is the prime minister of the court and asked you to escort you. There is a lot of nonsense. If you don’t make a good journey, wait until Puyang, and see how my elder brother cleans up you."
Zhang Kai was behind, and hurriedly persuaded him when he saw it, "The adults are calm, they are all born in poverty, and they are not afraid of hardship and suffering, but the weather is too cold, the brothers are out in a hurry, and they can’t change their clothes. They really can’t bear it. Cold, there will be many brocade coats on the cars of the adults. If the adults are willing to borrow a few to keep the brothers out of the cold, they will naturally be quicker."
Cao De yelled again: "Okay, the idea of arranging these properties came. I see where you are the officers and soldiers of the court, you are obviously robbers,"
Zhang Kai was born in a yellow turban, and he is most taboo against others calling him a robber. After hearing what Cao De said, he felt furious and said, "What about the robbers? You Cao family's property is not a looting of the people, so I won't be able to get it. ,"
After hearing Zhang Kai's words, the soldiers clamored, Cao De was taken aback, drew his sword in his hand, and said, "Zhang Kai, do you want to rebel?"
Zhang Kai was just talking casually, but now that he saw Cao De draw his sword and face each other, he didn't realize that he was angry, and he took the steel knife in his hand, and said angrily: "Grandpa is the opposite today, what can you do with Grandpa?"
When Cao De was about to answer, he felt a sharp pain in his back. When he looked down, he saw a gorgeous peach blossom blooming on his white brocade robe, but the stamen was a sharp blade with cold light.
Zhang Kai just wanted to take advantage of his tongue. Unexpectedly, someone moved his hand first. When he looked up, it was his confidant Lin Er. He couldn't help but said angrily: "Lin Er, who let you kill him?"
Lin Er drew the knife out of Cao De's back with a faint smile, and said with a flattering smile: "The general calmed down his anger. The brothers followed the general to join Tao Qian. They all wanted to find wealth, but the general also saw it. Now, General Yan Dong So, the big guy doesn’t even have a piece of cotton-padded clothes. There are hundreds of carts of gold and silver goods here. If you don’t take it today, can you have such a good thing in the future
As Lin Er's knife was taken out, Cao De didn't let out a cry of exclamation, and slowly fell to the ground, opening a pair of goldfish eyes in anger, really stunned.
The servant of the Cao family over there had seen this scene a long time ago and couldn't help but yelled. Cao Song hurriedly poked his head out of the carriage and repeatedly asked: "What happened?"
Lin Yun raised the knife in his hand and said loudly, "Brothers, Lin has already done this. If you don't kill them all, everyone will not be able to run away. Now there is only one thing that you don’t do and two are endless. Let this riches and honors come,"
The soldiers were still hesitant, looking at Zhang Kai there, but Zhang Kai knew that he was the captain of the army. When something like this happened, he was the first to be held accountable, so he stomped his feet severely and sighed. Said: "Fine, nothing, Lin Er, Grandpa has been badly killed by you, and now he has to get on the thief ship and be his vote.
While talking, Zhang Kai chopped down a servant of the Cao family who had come to observe the situation to the ground, and said loudly, "Brothers, don't do it yet, wait more."
Lin Er also yelled from the side: "Remember, don't leave a living mouth,"
These soldiers were originally desperadoes. They were jealous when they saw these belongings. Now that Zhang Kai and Lin Er started, they suddenly screamed and rushed forward. Poor Cao Song hadn’t figured out what had happened, so he was stabbed. Cut off their heads, their heads are in different places, and some of these slaves have some fists and kicks. They rose up to resist, but they were outnumbered, and they were chopped into sludge in a blink of an eye.
Zhang Kai held the knife to the side and shouted: "Check carefully, don't miss one,"
The soldiers were also able to kill, no matter where they were, men, women, old and children, they just chopped off their heads, and for a while, screams rang out all over the night sky. Soon, Cao Song's more than 200 family servants were killed Polished,
Lin Er approached Zhang Kai and said, "General, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time. There is a mountain col in front of you. Why not drive these vehicles there first and then make a decision."
Zhang Kai was also worried that the killing would attract nearby officers and soldiers. He waved his hand and said, "Everyone, hurry up, get to the mountain col, divide the property, and go to each other."
Lin Er agreed and took the lead in driving a bullock cart full of cloth and silk. The soldiers shouted, and after that, they hurried the cart to the front mountain col.
The mountain col is only three or five miles away. These carriages and ox carts were dragged and driven by the soldiers, and they were fast, and they reached the ground in a short time. There are small hills with a height of one hundred feet on three sides, through the hazy In the moonlight, you can vaguely see the dense woods and weeds on the hillside. Only a narrow entrance is left on the east side. There are more than a hundred cars parked here. It is not visible from the outside. It is a good place to sit on the ground and divide the spoils.
Zhang Kai nodded with satisfaction and praised: "Lin Er, it's really hard for you to find such a place,"
Just now when I ran too fast, Lin Er breathed a sigh of relief, and said flatly, "Going back to the general, the villain passed by here a few days ago. He was in a hurry. He wanted to find a place to make it easier, but unexpectedly found out. With this location, it comes in handy today. It is the blessing of the general."
While they were talking, there was a loud noise around them. It turned out that these soldiers under Zhang Kai were originally born in yellow turbans. Although they had worn military uniforms for a few days and became officers and soldiers, they still couldn't change their gangsterism. I saw that they were safe now. , I couldn’t help but began to fight for the property on the car.
Upon seeing this, Lin Er said loudly, "Brothers, everyone gathered around. These properties are subject to General Zhang's distribution, and no one is allowed to move."
"Don't worry, everyone has a share of the hundred or ten carts of gold and silver cloth," Zhang Kai nodded with satisfaction at Lin Er, jumped into an ox cart, stood on top of the cage, and said loudly, "Brothers, Come here, everyone lined up, ah..."
Before Zhang Kai's words fell, he let out a scream, and didn't know where a sharp arrow flew from, hitting his forehead. The arrow was so powerful that it shot in from Zhang Kai's forehead and went straight out of the back of his head. , Zhang Kai's body swayed on the bullock cart, and he planted, his eyes wide open until he died, and he couldn't stare at him.
This sudden arrow not only shot Zhang Kai to death, but also caused a burst of violence among the 500 soldiers. Lin Er shouted in the crowd: "Brothers, there must be spies among us. How dare to plot against General Zhang, think If you want to swallow these belongings alone, everyone must get this person out and never let him go."
Lin Er's shout reminded everyone that many people have already drawn out their knives, and those who carry bows and arrows among the soldiers have become key suspects. They have been surrounded by groups long ago. These people have no military discipline in the first place. The leader Zhang Kai was hit by an arrow again, and he was no longer restrained. I don’t know who used the knife to cut down an archer. The scene suddenly became chaotic and fell into a melee, especially those archers, which became a public attack. The goal,
There was only a clapper sound. On the hillside where there was no trace of human figures just now, countless torches lit up suddenly, illuminating the entire mountain col like the day. Against the background of the torches, thousands of arrow clusters flashed with cold light, pointing straight. Looking at the soldiers in the melee, those soldiers didn’t know until this time that there was an ambush in this mountain col.
The clever soldiers already yelled: "Where's Lin Er, this bitch brought everyone here, it must be a spy,"
When everyone wanted to look for it, the surrounding area was already in chaos, where there was Lin Er's trace, this kid didn't know where to hide.
Hearing a loud "bang" sound, a thousand arrows were fired on three hillsides, and the soldiers who could not dodge were shot into hedgehogs in an instant, and some soldiers who saw the opportunity hurriedly hid behind the vehicle, but the advantage on the slope Arrows were shot down wave after wave, and most of the soldiers under Zhang Kai quickly lost most of them. Seeing that they were not heads, the surviving soldiers jumped from the ground and ran towards the entrance.
