Cao Cao crosses Wu Dalang

Chapter 37 Guo Sheng Fights Huangmen Mountain
A group of brothers heard that everyone was vying to go first. Cao Cao said with a smile: "Brothers, don't compete. This time I have traveled thousands of miles to Jiangzhou, so I always leave someone to look after the house."

After some discussion, Zheng Tianshou wanted to be in charge of business affairs, so he couldn't go; Qin Ming and Huang Xin were the key criminals who offered rewards for arrest, let alone Shi'er Mountain, which couldn't be left without a general guarding it, so he couldn't go; So Hu Sanniang couldn't go either.

Finally, it was agreed that the people who went to Jiangzhou were led by Cao Cao, who led Luan Tingyu, Shi Xiu, Lu Fang, Guo Sheng, Yang Lin, Pei Xuan, Deng Fei, Meng Kang, Shi Qian, a total of ten heroes, from Shier Mountain Hey, choose one hundred of the most elite people to accompany you, everyone rides on horseback, go back quickly.

It was agreed on the same day that preparations would be made the next day, and on the third day, it was April th, which was an auspicious day for traveling, and a group of more than a hundred people left Yanggu and went straight south.

From Yanggu County to Jiangzhou, about 40 li away, the people were divided into three teams. The first team was Cao Cao with Luan Tingyu, Lu Fang, and Guo Sheng, the second team was the three heroes of Yinmachuan, and the third team was Shi Xiu and Yang. Lin and Shiqian, each with three or forty people, pretending to be merchants, set off in succession at intervals of twenty li, and sent two fast horses ahead to scout the way.

They traveled overnight and traveled more than one hundred miles a day. After more than ten days, they reached Huainan West Road, which is the ground of Shouzhou.

Cao Cao and the others headed straight ahead, and the surrounding mountains were gradually rising. After walking for a while, they saw an evil mountain rising up in front of them, engulfing their way. , there must be robbers in this mountain."

When Cao Cao heard this, he frowned and saw that the mountain covered a vast area and had an extraordinary atmosphere, so he reined in his horse and said, "If that's the case, let's go over together when all the people behind are here."

After waiting for two or three hours, the two teams from behind arrived. Pei Xuan understood the geography and pointed out: "This is the Dabie Mountain. It stretches for thousands of miles. There are countless strange peaks and endless secrets. This mountain is the northeastern gateway of the Dabie Mountain. It is called Huangshiyan." , also known as Huangmen Mountain, after passing here, you will arrive at Shuzhou."

Cao Cao looked at the mountain and said in thought: "I have been waiting for a long time, why didn't Tanma come back?"

Before the words fell, there was a sound of gongs and drums in the mountain, and 30 people were knocked out at the crossing. The leader, who was quite sturdy, pointed at the crowd and shouted: "Where are you gangsters? How dare you send spies to visit Huangmen Mountain?" The reality of it?"

Pei Xuan stepped forward and replied: "We are not some bandits, but guests who are going to Jiujiang to do business. We sent people to explore the way for fear of being robbed. We have no intention of checking the reality of Guizhai. Please forgive me."

The leader laughed three times, then changed his face and shouted: "Fart! I've never seen a businessman wearing armor, chicken feathers, and a painted halberd. You are clearly a gang of thieves who want to seize my foundation."

Guo Sheng and Lu Fang were furious when they heard the words. Everyone else was on the road wearing ordinary clothes, and the armor was wrapped and placed on the accompanying cart. He was the only two deep cosplay enthusiasts. Xue Rengui.

In fact, it’s nothing else, but neither of them likes to wear helmets. Each has a three-pronged hair crown on his head. Lu Fang is a gold crown inlaid with beautiful jade, with two colorful pheasant tails that are long and curled up, and Guo Sheng is a silver crown. Surrounded by a circle of white velvet, two snow-white pheasant tails are long and raised, shaking and shaking very majesticly.

The halberds are also tied with money leopard tails and five-color money flags that are useless except for beauty, and they are often mixed together during fights, but for the sake of beauty, they would rather risk their lives than take them off.

Now hearing what the leader said about the top of the chicken feather and the painting halberd, there is no one else but the two of them, so there is no one else who is willing to give up, Guo Sheng immediately shouted: "A broken mountain is only treasured by an ignorant like you! Nonsense! Say less, return the Tanma first, and then make a fuss about it."

The leader said with a sinister smile: "What a fart, the drum has already been skinned and covered."

Guo Sheng said angrily: "Since this is the case, the young master also peeled your skin!"

He gallops out with his horse, and grabs the opponent's eyes with the cold silver painted halberd.

The man was completely fearless, and he was running an iron gun in his hand, fighting with Guo Sheng ping-pong-pong.

Everyone watched the battle for a while, Luan Tingyu said: "This man's marksmanship is the way of the army, he must be a general, but he doesn't know how to become a thief."

The two generals over there had already fought for seven or eight times. The leader made a trick, pushed aside the painting halberd, returned to his horse and fled. Twenty or thirty minions behind him shouted in unison: "Defeated, defeated."

Guo Sheng was about to pursue, when Cao Cao shouted, "Guo Sheng is back!"

Guo Sheng heard that he was called, so he had to ride his horse back, ran to Cao Cao and complained: "If you don't call me, brother, I have already captured that guy."

Luan Tingyu said: "Thanks to my brother for calling you, you know that the man's marksmanship has not messed up at all, and he left suddenly, it must be a fraud, if you go, they will catch you."

Guo Sheng didn't believe it, Cao Cao said: "Brother, our scouts are all well-trained, and being caught by them proves that this gang of thieves must have been prepared long ago, whether it was a secret sentry, or a trap. There must be a man of resourcefulness. In addition to the fact that he was defeated, I will not allow you to chase him."

Shi Xiudao: "What brother said is true, it's a pity that the two Tan Ma brothers were killed by them."

Cao Cao shook his head and said, "Since the other party has a resourceful man, we don't know who the enemy is right now, so we won't take it lightly."

Just at this time, three to five hundred minions walked out of the mountain pass, and the four leaders immediately came forward, one of whom was fighting with Guo Sheng just now.

Guo Sheng suddenly said: "Sure enough, there is an ambush."

Cao Cao took a step forward, clasped his fists and said, "Heroes, I can only wait for an excuse to send out scouts for the sake of safety. We have no enmity with each other. Why use me to scout the horses and block my way?"

Among the four people, a handsome leader smiled and said: "It is necessary to be defensive. You have a large number of people, who knows if it is the official army that encircled and suppressed us? Or is it a colleague who robbed the foundation? How about it, Put down your weapon, we will send you across the mountain, and then return the weapon."

This leader was dressed in a long robe, a scarf on his head, and a heart armor on the outside, and a stick in his hand. It was very strange that he was neither civil nor military.

Cao Cao thought to himself: This must be the other party's think tank.

He opened the mouth and said: "My man, how can we catch him without a fight? I don't think you are an ordinary green forest figure, please tell your name."

The man wearing the scarf smiled and said, "Why don't I tell you?" The man wielding the iron spear said, "This is our master, 'Moyun Golden Wing' Ou Peng."

Patting himself on the chest: "As for Xiao Ke, whose surname is Jiang Mingjing, he knows how to do calculations, and has earned the false name of 'magic fortune teller'."

Pointing to the two people next to him, he said, "These two are 'Iron Flute Immortal' Ma Lin and 'Nine-Tailed Turtle' Tao Zongwang. The four of us brothers gathered here to build a mountain and a village, but I don't know what kind of people you are and what your background is." ?”

Cao Cao pondered for a moment, and said: "We are heroes from Shandong and Hebei, and we are going to Jiujiang to settle an old grudge. If we do not change our name, we will not change our surname. I am Wu Zhi, people in the Jianghu are called 'Wu Mengde', my brothers..."

He was still waiting to introduce a group of brothers, and the four of them all cried out in surprise.

Ou Peng stared and said, "You are Wu Mengde and Wu Zhi? Also called Broken Gate Sword?"

Cao Cao said, "It's right here."

Ou Peng and the others hurriedly got off their horses and cut off their brushes: "I have heard about my brother's name for a long time, I don't want to offend, and I will be worshiped by my younger brothers."

Cao Cao laughed and said, "My two sentinel brothers were not skinned by you, did they?"

Ou Peng shook his hand and said, "Don't you dare? First, you hit them a few times during the interrogation. Then I saw that their bones were hard. I admired myself, so I wrapped up my wounds and gave them wine and meat to eat and drink."

Ma Lin called Qu and said, "Brother Wu family, it's not that the younger brothers deliberately offended, it's because your spies practiced so well that they refused to say where they were from, or I'll come to meet you sooner rather than later?"

Cao Cao glanced over and saw that the expressions of these people were sincere and trustworthy, so he deliberately used words to seduce him: "It's not because he refuses to tell, it's because I have waited thousands of miles to do a big thing that will kill my head, so I don’t want to reveal my name. If I didn’t see that the four of you brothers are tough guys, I would not give my name.”

As expected, the four people's expressions were serious, and they asked curiously: "What's the big deal to lose their heads?"
