Tang Bin nodded, took out a piece of gold and handed it to the boatman.
The boatman quickly waved his hand and refused, saying:
"Young Master, you can't do it. The Ding family has already paid for the villain's boat."
"Master Ding has told you that if he doesn't come, let me show you the way."
"There are three roads ahead."
"To the east, to Hefei."
"To the west, you will go to Jingzhou."
"To the north is the road leading to Yuzhou. Young Master, you can go north. The villain is leaving."
Tang Bin also bowed his hand in return.
Da Qiao tugged on Tang Bin's sleeve, and the two of them chatted one after another, heading north on the road.
........................
Yanzhou, Zhencheng.
After the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao fought hard and defeated Yuan Shao several times in a row.
Yuan Shao couldn't afford to lose, he closed his eyes and kicked his legs, he died!
Alas~ Are you angry?
I'm a dead bird, what are you doing!
As soon as Yuan Shao died, his three sons would simply die!
Yuan Shao's eldest son Yuan Qin, the governor of Qingzhou, was not convinced by Yuan Shao, so he passed the seat of the Yuan family heir to the third son Yuan Shang, so he led troops to attack Jizhou.
Yuan Shang is also a no-brainer, he will fight with Yuan Qin when he goes up!
The two brothers fought to the death and there was a tendency to never end.
It is known as the two Yuan Zhengfeng in history.
Cao Cao saw that these two idiots were picking each other up, and immediately, under the advice of his counselor Guo Jia, he sent troops to attack Yecheng, the base camp that the Yuan family had operated for more than ten years.
However, Yecheng is strong and difficult to break through at once.
Therefore, Cao Cao first swept all the big and small cities around Yecheng!
In the end, because of the way, he came to Yanzhou Zhencheng to visit his original wife, Ding.
In the early years when Cao Cao raised troops to attack Dong Zhuo, the Ding family went bankrupt to support him.
Therefore, he has always treated Mrs. Ding with courtesy.
Mrs. Ding was barren, so she treated Cao Ang as her own son.
However, in the battle of Wancheng, Lao Cao's sentence "there are prostitutes in this city" caused a catastrophe!
Not only was the general Dian Wei reimbursed in Wancheng, but Cao Ang and Cao Anmin were also buried in it.
Since then, Mrs. Ding has often cried, saying that Cao Cao killed Cao Ang.
Cao Cao was annoyed by what he heard, so he sent Mrs. Ding back to her hometown.
The members of the Ding family are gradually not being taken seriously.
in the courtyard.
Mrs. Ding is weaving.
Boss Cao with thick eyebrows and broad face, dressed in ordinary clothes, came and sat down beside Mrs. Ding.
Then he reached out and stroked Mrs. Ding's back, saying:
"Ma'am, please go back by car with me~"
Mrs. Ding didn't even roll her eyes at him, and continued to weave her cloth.
Lao Cao was embarrassed now, and said again: "Madam, your weaving skills are getting better and better."
Mrs. Ding was silent.
Boss Cao looked at Mrs. Ding and asked again:
"Madam, how have you been doing all these years?"
Mrs. Ding still ignored him.
Cao Cao stood up again and walked to the door.
"Madam, if you ignore me again, am I really leaving?"
Madam Ding still did not speak.
"Hey!"
Lao Cao sighed and said, "It seems that he is really going to break with me..."
After leaving the gate of the courtyard, Ding Jiyang, the head of the Ding family, was waiting outside the gate.
Cao Cao stepped forward and said to Ding Jiyang:
"My wife and I have broken up, you can let her remarry."
Ding Jiyang dared not even say so.
Cao Cao went out of the gate and got on his horse.
"Let's go, return to Yecheng!"
Chapter 23 The Traitor's Regret, Meeting Liu Bei on the Road
"My lord, won't Madam go with you?"
Beside him, General Xu Chu asked Cao Cao a question.
Cao Cao looked up at the sky, sighed, and said:
"Back then... I lost my eldest son Cao Ang in Wancheng, which made my wife very sad."
"Madam doesn't want to see me anymore."
As Cao Cao spoke, there was even a trace of remorse in his words and demeanor.
Moreover, the self-proclaimed "I" is not "solitary".
In this matter, Cao Cao is full of guilt.
Back then, because he had slept with a woman, Zhang Xiu rebelled and killed the general Dian Wei, his eldest son Cao Ang, and his nephew Cao Anmin.
However, in front of outsiders, he had to make a show.
Say something like: "I don't cry for my son, I cry for my beloved General Dianwei".
Let everyone in the world know that he values his generals more than his son!
This is a move to buy people's hearts.
However, no one can understand the regret and pain in his heart!
Sighing again, Cao Cao smiled self-deprecatingly.
In the eyes, sad, but also soft.
"Has Zhongkang ever heard about my son Cao Ang?"
Xu Chu replied: "My lord, when I first came under the lord's command, I often heard people talking about Mr. Zixiu."
"Whether civil servants or generals, they are all full of praise for Mr. Zixiu. They all say that he has inherited the best qualities of the lord and will become a great weapon in the future."
After Cao Cao heard Xu Chu's words, his eyes became softer.
He looked up at the floating clouds in the sky, as if he wanted to find the trace of Cao Ang from the clouds in the sky.
"Yes, Zixiu has indeed inherited my best qualities."
"He has been humble and polite since he was a child, and he is studious and inquisitive."
"At home, like a little adult, be filial to your elders and take care of your brothers and sisters."
"Later, when I launched an army against Dong Zhuo, he was always by my side."
"Strategy of war, horseback riding and archery, all of them are excellent! And he can treat soldiers well."
"Soldiers in the army, when you mention my son Cao Ang, who doesn't praise him?"
When Cao Cao said this, he couldn't help getting a little excited.
"If Zixiu is still here, how can the sons of the Yuan family be compared with him?"
"Jiangdong Sun Ce and Sun Quan, how can they compare to one-tenth of him?"
"It's a pity...it's all my fault, it's all my fault."
While speaking, Cao Cao's expression showed sadness.
Seeing this, Xu Chu hurriedly said, "My lord's condolences."
"Although Mr. Zixiu is gone, Mr. Zihuan and Mr. Zijian are also dragons and phoenixes among the people. With such a unicorn, my lord, why worry about the great success?"
As a general of the guard who had followed Cao Cao for seven years, Xu Chu had already learned how to speak.
Sure enough, after hearing his words, Cao Cao's eyes soon became sharp!
"Well said!"
"My son Cao Pi and Cao Zhi are a hundred times better than Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan!"
"Compared to Sun Ce and Sun Quan, they are no different!"
"It won't take long for Gu to pacify Jizhou and completely wipe out Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan!"
"Order the three armies, set off, set off!"
Xu Chu hurriedly asked: "My lord, do you want to give the Ding family gold, silk, grain and rice?"
Cao Cao flicked his horsewhip, and said, "Madam has a strong nature, so she will definitely not accept it."
"She can live by weaving now, so let her be, sir!"
As soon as the whip was sounded, the war horse rushed far away!
Xu Chu galloped to follow!
The three armies moved together, the flags covered the sun, and the sky was full of yellow dust!
It seems to cover up the whole day!
........................
Yuzhou.
"Husband, do you think our horse can't move anymore?"
Da Qiao dressed up like a little peasant daughter-in-law.
A cloth scarf was tied on his head, and his face was also deliberately smudged.
The two were driving the carriage, but the horse was so thin that it seemed to fall down at any moment.
Because a few bandits blocked the way to rob, but was robbed by Tang Bin instead.
As a result, these bandits were beaten for nothing, and Tang Bin took away their only piece of wealth, a thin horse.
It should be said that this bandit only knows how to rob, but he doesn't know how to cherish horses.
He kept it so thin!
Tang Bin glanced at it and said, "I think it really can't move anymore."
Big Joe: "Then, let's let it go, it's too pitiful."
Tang Bin also nodded and said, "Let's let it go, let's walk to the market ahead to buy one."
While talking, I saw a group of people walking on the road ahead.
The first person has a friendly face.
