I am the son of Cao thief, start the awakening of the tyrant system

Yan Pu froze on the horseback, staring blankly into the distance.

I saw the official road not far away, and there were densely packed soldiers of Cao Jun on both sides of the road.

At a glance, you can't see the edge at all.

At least tens of thousands!

"Why didn't Yan Gongcao answer Gu's words? Aren't you moved?"

Cao Mao asked softly.

"No...don't dare to move..."

"Ok?"

Cao Mao's face darkened.

Yan Pu was startled, waved his hands quickly, his lips squirmed, showing a smile uglier than crying,
"Moved! Touched!"

He was so moved!
He dare not move at all!

Yan Pu is not a fool.

Cao Mao gathered such a large army, saying that he was sending him back to Hanzhong.

Fools don't believe it!
Cao Mao glanced at him, then continued to ride his horse and go ahead.

As their group passed by the official road, the soldiers on both sides saluted in unison,
"Meet King Wei!"

Voices come and go!

"This time when Yan Gongcao goes back, he must persuade Zhang Lu not to let him do stupid things, understand?"

Cao Mao narrowed his eyes and looked at Yan Pu.

Although he didn't raise his head to meet Cao Mao's gaze, Yan Pu could still feel the coldness in his eyes.

Yan Pu felt a chill in his heart, knowing that this was Cao Mao's ultimatum.

If Zhang Lu doesn't know good from bad, then the army in front of him will start to conquer Hanzhong.

He nodded quickly and said respectfully,
"The little man understands."

"That's good, let's go!"

With a wave of Cao Mao's hand, the mighty army began to break out of camp and set off!
……

a few days later.

Cao Mao led the army and sent Yan Pu to the junction of Jingzhou and Hanzhong County.

Another envoy sent by the imperial court entered Hanzhong County with Yan Pu.

A few days later, after a long journey, Yan Pu finally returned to Nanzheng and met Zhang Lu.

……

"...Master, the situation is like this. If you openly resist, I'm afraid Cao Mao will attack us immediately."

Yan Pu told what he saw and heard in Xudu in detail.

Zhang Lu nodded noncommittally, then looked at everyone in the hall expressionlessly,
"Do you have any suggestions?"

"Cao Mao is cruel and heartless, yet so uneasy and kind. Master, we can't surrender him!"

A middle-aged literati said coldly.

He is Zhang Lu's adviser, Yang Song.

His younger brother Yang Bonai was a general in Hanzhong, when he heard Yang Song's words, he also nodded and said,
"Master, we can't surrender!"

Yan Pu frowned and sighed,
"If you don't surrender, what should Cao Jun approach?"

"Naturally, the army is resisting!"

A general with a fierce face shouted in a deep voice,
"The terrain in Hanzhong is dangerous. We only need to occupy Xiegu Road, Tangluo Road and Xicheng Xian, and strictly guard against it."

"In this way, even if Cao Jun has millions of troops, what do we have to fear?"

He is Zhang Lu's younger brother, Zhang Wei.

After hearing Zhang Wei's words, Zhang Lu's expression eased, and he said softly,
"What Gongze (Zhang Wei's name) said is not unreasonable..."

Another general under Zhang Lu, Yang Ren, also nodded in agreement,
"Yes, master. If you don't fight a battle, you will surrender Cao Mao. I'm afraid he won't be reused in the future."

"Instead of that, it's better to have a fight with Cao Jun!"

"Let's see the outcome, and it's not too late to talk about submission!"

Zhang Wei, Yang Song, Yang Bai and others all nodded in agreement.

Yan Pu beside him couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Even Liu Bei, Liu Biao, and Sun Quan died at the hands of Cao Mao. It is short-sighted to rely on Berkshire and Hanzhong to resist him!

But Zhang Lu, Yang Ren and others cannot be blamed for this.

After all, they are not like Yan Pu, who went to Xudu in person to see how powerful Cao Jun is!

Yan Pu cheered up and suggested cautiously,
"Master, why don't you meet Cao Mao's envoy and see him..."

"not see!"

Zhang Lu has been persuaded by Zhang Wei and others, and waved his hand indifferently,

"Beat that emissary with a stick and drive him out of Hanzhong!"

"Master, if the two armies are at war, if you don't kill the envoy, this... must not be done!"

Yan Pu panicked immediately.

"Hey, I didn't expect Yan Gongcao to go to Xudu, why did he keep talking for Cao Mao. Could it be that he promised you some kind of favor?"

Yang Song smiled sadly.

Yan Pu's complexion changed, and he cursed,
"Yang Song, you are talking nonsense!"

"Whether I'm talking nonsense or not, everyone can see."

Yang Song snorted coldly.

Yan Pu's heart sank, and he looked towards Zhang Lu.

as predicted.

Zhang Lu looked at him with suspicion already.

"Master, I... I was wronged, you..."

"Okay, Yan Gongcao, you have worked so hard on this trip to Xudu, so let's go down and rest for now."

Zhang Lu said calmly.

Yan Pu opened his mouth and had no choice but to accept his orders and leave.

"Come here, drive Cao's thief's envoy out!"

Zhang Lu shouted.

"Here!"

Several sergeants outside the hall led the way.

……

The junction of Hanzhong County and Jingzhou.

The continuous Cao Jun camp.

Chinese army camp.

Cao Mao looked indifferently, looking at the envoy he sent under the hall,
"That Zhang Lu drove you out without even seeing him?"

"Yes, King Wei."

I saw that the envoy was beaten with a bruised nose and a swollen face, looking extremely miserable.

"Understood, I've worked hard on you this time, and you can go down to rest and recuperate. I will avenge this revenge for you."

Cao Mao comforted him.

"Thank you King Wei."

After the envoy went down, Jiang Wei beside him couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, and said in a hateful voice,

"When the two armies are at war, don't behead them."

"Zhang Lu is so rude to the envoy sent by the teacher. Teacher, the students are willing to take the initiative to take down this thief for the teacher!"

Gan Ning glanced at him and lazily smiled,

"Little brother, go back for a while. The terrain in Hanzhong is complicated, and this battle will be a hard one. Boyue, you are too young, I'm afraid you won't be able to grasp it!"

Jiang Wei's face turned red immediately, not to be outdone,
"Brother Xingba, don't look down on people. If you have the ability, compare who has made more contributions this time!"

Cao Mao waved his hand to stop their quarrel, and said calmly,

"Xingba is right. The terrain in Hanzhong is dangerous, so we still have to think about a charter."

Pang Tong looked at the sand table on the table, stroked his beard and muttered,
"This Hanzhong County has two basins, Hanzhong and Ankang, surrounded by mountains, easy to defend but difficult to attack."

"If you want to take it down, you must invite Ma Teng, the governor of Liangzhou, to send troops together with Lu Bu, the governor of Sili Prefecture."

Cao Mao nodded,

"good."

At this moment, there was a sudden "ding" in his ear, and the system that hadn't moved for a long time released a task at this moment.

"Ding, the host triggers the tyrant mission, and accepts Zhang Lu's surrender with a sheep-raising ceremony!"

Sheep leading ceremony.

In the surrender ceremony of the later Jin Kingdom, the captives were required to be naked to the upper body, wear sheepskin, and tie a rope around their necks. They were led like sheep, which also meant that they were slaughtered like sheep!
