Although he looked down on Ma Teng.
But the mind of my son is not comparable to that of ordinary people.
It's no wonder that the upper circles of Xudu are rumored that Cao Angding is the best candidate for Lao Cao's future successor.
Now it seems that Cao Ang can do this just because of his young age, so why not worry about major events in the future!
Chapter 65 News from Lu Bu
After a brief shock, Ma Teng finally came back to his senses.
Hastily moved his body to the side, stretched out his hand to support him and said, "Young Master is really a shameful old man!"
Cao Ang took advantage of the opportunity to stand up and smiled, "When I was at home, I heard my father often mention that General Ma is a hero in the world. If we meet each other, we must treat him with courtesy. Seeing General Ma today really deserves his reputation!"
Do not wear flattery!
When the old horse heard the words, he was also secretly happy.
See, my old horse is also a famous person, so what about Cao Cao, why don't you call me a hero of the world!
He was complacent in his heart, but on the surface Ma Teng still said:
"That's all ridiculous praise from friends on the road. I, Ma Teng, am just a woodcutter!"
Ma Teng was right. When he was young, he was poor and had no property. He often felled wood in Zhangshan in exchange for food to support himself.
It wasn't until later that Didaoren, the Kingdom, Di, Qiang and other ethnic groups rebelled, and Ma Teng joined the army, and he embarked on the road to joining the army!
At this time, Ma Chao dismounted and came in front of Ma Teng:
"Father! The child knows his mistake! I regret that I didn't listen to my father's words, and I didn't pay attention to the people of the world, so I lost today!"
There is nothing more satisfying to be a father than watching your child grow up with your own eyes.
It seems that this defeat is definitely a good thing for Ma Chao's future.
Ma Teng nodded in relief, patted Ma Chao on the shoulder and said, "Son, if you can think this way, father will be satisfied! I heard that you have already taken refuge under the command of the eldest son?"
Ma Chao: "That's true!"
"Hmm! Very good. Birds follow the phoenix and fly away. Only by following someone like Eldest Young Master can you have a better way out."
Ma Chao said, "Father, you also mean to surrender?"
Ma Teng said: "This is the end of the matter! That's natural. The so-called father and son soldiers in battle, I will always be your biggest supporter!" Then he thought of his missing daughter, and felt sad again for no reason!
Before he knew it, Ma Chao felt that his father had aged a lot.
Even though he is only in his forties, he still has the feeling of being a hero in his twilight years.
Ma Chao suddenly felt his nose sore, and tears rolled in the corners of his eyes.
In so many years, it was the first time he heard his father's words from the bottom of his heart.
Cao Ang was also quite moved, and revealed his true feelings in front of the father and son.
His perception of Ma Teng and his son changed immediately.
It seems that Ma Chao is not as ruthless as imagined, and Ma Teng is a dedicated father.
Seeing that Ma Chao was about to burst into tears, Cao Ang interjected, "General Ma, outside the city is not a place to talk, so why not go inside the city to have a talk, besides, Ling Ai is also in the city!"
A visible light flashed in Ma Teng's eyes: "Young Master, what you mean is that Yunhe is also in the city!"
"That's right, she's in my mansion, the general will meet you when you enter the city!"
"That's great! I'm still worrying about the matter of Yunpo, and I thought she had some misfortune, it's fine, it's fine!"
Seeing Ma Teng's excited appearance, Cao Ang: Why do I feel that the old horse cares more about Ma Yunlu than Ma Chao?
Wouldn't this be the legendary patriarchy?
Cao Ang didn't know that Ma Teng and Ma Yi brothers had five sons in total, but this was the only daughter. If you put it in your hand, you are afraid of touching it, and if you put it in your mouth, you are afraid of melting!
On the other hand, the five brothers including Ma Chao and Ma Dai have become a group of people who are disgusted, and they have no status at all compared with Ma Yunhao!
Now that I finally got the news of Ma Yunjue, can Lao Ma be unhappy?
I heard the old horse eagerly said: "In this case, what are you waiting for, go to the city quickly!"
He said and walked away.
Walking not far away, he said to Ma Xiu who was behind him: "Hurry up and go back to Huaili, and tell your uncle that Yunlu has been found, and tell him not to worry!"
Cao Ang: …
Ma Chao and other brothers seem to have become accustomed to this.
Ma Chao wiped the corners of his eyes with a smile on his face!
Just now, Ma Teng felt that his father was old, but now that feeling disappeared again!
The news of the little padded jacket undoubtedly brought vitality to the old horse!
……
The capital in two days - Xudu!
In the past few days, exploring horses is like shooting stars chasing the moon, one after another!
Memorials and military information from all over the country also flew to Sikong Mansion like snowflakes.
Lao Cao was sitting behind a desk with piles of bamboo slips from all over the place.
Rubbing his swollen forehead, Cao Cao said to Guo Jia beside him:
"Feng Xiao, do you have any good news?"
Guo Jia shook his head: "There is no good news, it's all memorials from rebels everywhere!"
"Hey! It's an eventful time, what's going on with the world of the big man? There's news about Yuan Shu!"
Cheng Yu on the other side said: "My lord, I heard that Lv Bu wanted to send troops to celebrate his birthday a few days ago, but the latest news is that Lv Bu sent Yuan Shu a large amount of food!"
Cao Cao said angrily: "What? Didn't this house slave with three surnames say to draw a line with Yuan Shu? Why did he go back on his word? I think he doesn't want to stay in Xuzhou any longer!"
Cheng Yu said: "Earlier, when Lu Bu heard that Yuan Shu was proclaiming himself emperor, he had publicly cut off contact with him, and joined forces with Yang Feng and Liu Bei to attack disobedient ministers! But now..."
Guo Jia analyzed from the side: "Although Lu Bu is fierce, he is just a common man. He has no strategy. He must have listened to the words of his subordinates before he did this!"
Xun Yu, who had been silent all this time, said, "Thinking about it, Chen Gong is the only one who can give advice to Lu Bu!"
Cao Cao: "This Chen Gong, what is he doing?"
Guo Jiadao: "It must be that Chen Gong understands the truth of cold lips and teeth!"
Xun Yu said: "That's right, if you think about it, Chen Gong must have seen through our purpose, knowing that once Yuan Shu is eliminated, Lu Bu will be next, so he made such a bad plan!"
When Lao Cao mentioned Chen Gong, he became angry: "This Chen Gong, wouldn't it be unjust to trap Lu Bu in this way!"
"No." Guo Jia said, "Lü Bu, when has he ever talked about righteousness in his life! He has only been a righteous son a few times!"
Cao Cao had fun in the midst of suffering, he laughed and said, "Following Xiao's words is justified! When the two join forces, what should we do!"
Lao Cao thought for a while and then said: "There is also that nasty big-eared thief. I ordered him to guard Xiaopei in order to contain Lu Bu. Why did I hear that he and Lu Bu are flirting with each other? What is the meaning of this!"
Xun Yu said: "Liu Xuande is the hero of the world, he has great ambitions, and he must not be taken lightly!"
Chapter 66
Lao Cao suddenly remembered that some time ago, in Cao Ang's letter to himself, he had mentioned that he must be careful of Liu Bei!
Could it be that Cao Ang also saw something?Or was he really too careless and underestimated Liu Bei!
Thinking of Cao Ang, Lao Cao asked: "Gongda, you are in charge of the letter paper memorial in Guanzhong, do you have a letter from there!"
Xun You, who had been looking at the Chinese book in his hand, raised his head and said unhurriedly: "No one in your hands is good news, but it is different here!"
This time, the rest of the people all looked at Xun You!
Cao Cao asked eagerly: "But the news from Chang'an?"
Xun You smiled and said, "My lord, don't worry, it's really the news from the eldest son."
"Gongda hurry up and tell me what good news it is. It's all bad news recently, and I'm going to be so annoying!"
Xun You smiled and said to Cao Cao: "My lord, here is a copy of the military information and two copies of the family letter. I have read the military information. Is this family letter...?"
Lao Cao scolded with a smile: "Well, you Xun Gongda, why, Lao Tzu's family letter requires you to read it first!"
"Of course my subordinates dare not. I originally wanted to report to you later, but it seems that I should hand it over directly to the lord!"
Lao Cao laughed loudly and said: "There is no rush for the family letter, just submit it. What is the military situation, don't hesitate to tell me!"
"Here!"
Xun You unfolded a bamboo slip and read: "Today, our troops have regained a large amount of lost ground in Jingzhao, Fengxiang, Fufeng and other counties. Ma Teng led his troops to surrender! During the period, Chang’an Prefect Xia Houyuan, General Bi Xu Huang, General Annan Duan Yao made outstanding military exploits, and Zhijinwu Jiaxu made great contributions in assisting them! I hope there will be more promotions!”
This commendation letter came from Cao Ang, Cao Ang didn't say a word about his achievements!
Cao Cao's eyes jumped up, and he asked uncertainly, "Ma Teng and his son surrendered?"
Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, and Xun Yu also looked at Xun You dully, they were all very shocked by this almost impossible good news!
Ma Teng is a hero of the time who dominates Xiliang, how can such a person surrender easily!
This is simply unbelievable!
Xun You said: "That's true, congratulations, my lord, you finally solved a serious problem!"
"Hahaha! This is really great. I didn't expect Jia Xu and the others to report frequently in less than ten days. There is only one old man Han Sui left. Yongliang and Liangzhou are worry-free!"
Guo Jia and the others were also extremely happy, and said in unison: "Congratulations, my lord, congratulations, my lord!"
"Hahaha! Good! These people will be rewarded heavily. By the way, don't treat Ma Teng and his son badly. Send an order to recruit Ma Teng to Beijing. He must be a part of the position of the three princes!"
Cao Cao was in a happy mood, sweeping away the depression of the past few days.
Xun You said again: "My lord, here is another memorial from Jing Zhao Yin Zhongyou!"
"Oh! Read it and listen to what Yuan Chang said!"
"Here!"
Xun You agreed, and unfolded the next scroll of bamboo slips.
"Today, Eldest Prince Cao Ang, personally confronted Xiliang Ma Chao and captured him! Eldest Prince is as brave as Dian Weiji!..."
Cao Cao laughed again when he heard the words: "Hehe, when did this Yuan Chang learn to flatter horses! It is clear that there is no credit for Zixiu on the commendation of military exploits just now. Why did Yuan Chang hand over this merit to Cao Ang? Isn't this ridiculous Talk about it!"
Guo Jia rolled his eyes: "My lord, no, how can Zhong Yuanchang be a sycophant, especially for such an important matter as military exploits, how can he take it as a trifling matter, my lord, don't forget, the original Wancheng, and a few days ago Li Jue and Guo Si! It is expected that these are related to the eldest son, so it is impossible to say, does the eldest son really have such a method?"
Xun Yu also nodded and said yes: "That's right, according to the words of filial piety, it makes sense. If one thing is a coincidence, then it must not be a coincidence that these three major events happened one after another in just over ten days!"
Cheng Yu and Xun You also nodded!
They agree with Guo Jia and Xun Yu's analysis.
Lao Cao was also lost in thought.
Cao Ang's performance in the past was very good. He is both wise and brave on weekdays, quite like when he was young.
This is why Lao Cao has high hopes for him.
But there is a limit to the so-called wisdom and bravery. If he happened to cheat Wancheng and was lucky enough to kill Li Jue and Guo Si, it was very possible.
But who is Ma Chao?
Ma Chao is a leader among the young generation who has already been famous at a young age.
If it is said that Ma Chao's ability is just commonplace and all blown out, Lao Cao will never believe this!
Since ancient times, the people of Xiliang have been tough and tough, and everyone is dissatisfied with everyone. There is no reason to blow Ma Chao's skills to the sky.
Therefore, Lao Cao believes that Ma Chao still has great skills.
but!
Don't you know how much your son weighs?
As for him being able to fight against Ma Chao, Lao Cao absolutely does not believe it!
Not to mention capturing Ma Chao alive!
This is simply a fairy tale, a fool's dream!
Lao Cao smiled wryly and shook his head: "It would be fine if Zi Xiuzhen was as Yuan Chang said, everyone should not be entangled in this matter! In short, Ma Teng and his son were able to surrender, so they should be congratulated and greeted. Tonight, the Sikong Mansion will hold a celebration banquet! "
