Daqin Ghost Valley, makes you vertical and horizontal but not unified

"..."

Mrs. Shi's jade hands trembled slightly, and a strange feeling suddenly rose in her heart.

At this moment, Cao Chao's face has grown a few inches of beard, which not only slightly changed the shape of his face, but also added a bit of masculinity.

When Cao Chao carefully looked at himself in the bronze mirror, Mrs. Shi beside him was applying a paste-like powder on his face, turning his originally fair skin into a dark complexion.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the carriage became quiet, Cao Chao asked casually, "I wonder how much Madam knows about the situation in Chu State?"

"Nowadays, there are more than a dozen vassal states in the southern part of the Chu Kingdom and the Shu region. Among them, the six vassal states of Qilan, Yelang, and Minshan are the most powerful, and all have more than [-] armors. The King of Chu is quite scrupulous about this. Dare to withdraw the vassal blatantly.

"Among them, Wo Qilan and the Dian Kingdom are the strongest, and the late king was even elected as the leader of all the vassals when he was alive!

"As a result, he was selected by the King of Chu, and became the first victim to withdraw from the feudal domain, and instigated Prime Minister Li Ling to betray him.

"In the end, Li Ling brutally killed tens of thousands of people from my Shi family. He is so ruthless!"

Speaking of this, Mrs. Shi's eyes turned red, and her jade hands began to tremble, obviously recalling the tragic past.

Seeing this, Cao Chao stretched out his arms to embrace Mrs. Shi's slender waist, supported her fragrant shoulders, and lent her a broad shoulder.

Mrs. Shi was obviously over-excited, and wept softly on Cao Chao's shoulder, and she didn't forget to cover her mouth with her hand, so as not to wake up the baby who was still in swaddling.

What a heart-wrenching woman!

Cao Chao's dog's paw rested on Mrs. Shi's jade back, caressing it back and forth, and said softly

"Sister-in-law, don't cry, crying won't solve the problem.

"Tell me about the current situation in Shouchun, so I can play it by ear!"

After being distracted by Cao Chao's words, Mrs. Shi stopped crying very quickly.

It's just that those beautiful eyes were still full of tears, and his weak temperament was even worse, which made Cao Chao angry, and he couldn't help but take no further action.

After Madam Shi wiped the corners of her eyes lightly, she said: "Currently Chunshenjun Huang Xie is still in charge of the court, but the Li family headed by Taizhu Li Quan and Zuo Lingyin Li Chuangwen is backed by the King of Chu, forming a A force to be reckoned with."

"Combined with the constraints of the four big families of Qu, Jing, Zhao, and Xiang in the army, the current political situation in Chu State can be said to be extremely complicated!"

Cao Chao groped his chin and asked, "Among the forces of the four major families, which ones are friendly to the Shi family?"

"Gaozu has an old relationship with the four major families, and the previous king has always deliberately made good friends with the four major families, so they should help us."

After listening to Mrs. Shi's words, Cao Chao shook his head secretly.

In the eyes of politicians, there are only interests, so how can there be any friendship at all?

When the Shi family was in power in the Qilan Kingdom, the four major families must have had good relations with the Shi family, but now that the Shi family is down and out, it is uncertain how many families will help out with old feelings in mind.

Mrs. Shi is obviously not good at politics, no wonder neither Qin Shimingyue nor the history books mentioned this person.

I'm afraid the orphans and widows will be in trouble when they arrive in Shouchun.

What a pity!

Fortunately, God has eyes and let them meet me.

Cao Chao couldn't help but glanced at Mrs. Shi's collar.

Looking at it from this angle, one can still faintly see the white deep groove.

Truly, with great power comes great responsibility.

Being a man is tiring~

At this moment, the slightly hoarse voice of the Canglang King sounded outside the door.

"Master, there is a group of people approaching us in the distance!"

Chapter 46 Don't be afraid, sister-in-law, I have everything.Yanyun Eighteen Riders

"Bang!"

The eyebrow pencil in her hand fell to the ground, and Mrs. Shi's face instantly turned pale.

A group of people suddenly appeared in the wilderness, and it was definitely related to her mother and son without thinking too much.

And there are only six men on my own side, what can I use to resist?

Mrs. Shi's heart was ashamed, her delicate body softened, and she was about to fall on the car.

It happened that a pair of big hands firmly held her slender waist, and with a little force, her delicate body fell into her arms.

"My lord, what should we do now?"

At this time, Mrs. Shi was completely panicked, and her soft body fell into Cao Chao's arms, as if she was letting the king do whatever she wanted.

"Sister-in-law, don't be afraid, I have everything!"

Cao Chao's big hand caressed Mrs. Shi's jade back.

Madam Shi still dares to disobey now, so she can only let the other party do what she wants.

Fortunately, Cao Chao didn't take any further action, just patted a few times and left the carriage

After getting out of the carriage, Canglang King and Shi Da were already standing beside them.

"How many people are there?"

"Not less than a thousand people."

"How far is it from us?"

"Fifty or sixty miles"

Listening to the question and answer of the two, Shi Da and the others were stunned.

What is going on with this guy, Canglang?

It's fine to know in advance that there is an enemy attack, but it's outrageous to know the number and distance of the enemy clearly!

All four of them had served in the military, so of course they knew how difficult it was to do this.

Even if one or twenty scouts are thrown out, I'm afraid they may not be able to achieve this level!

For a moment, they looked at the Canglang King in disbelief.

The other party obviously followed the convoy all the time, and never left half a step.

How on earth did he do it?

However, the doubts of the four people are destined not to be answered. At this moment, Cao Chao is thinking about how to escape.

That's right, although this guy had a calm posture in front of Mrs. Shi, he was not prepared to be tough with her at all.

Cao Chao is out of his mind, and he still can't do something like six people fighting a thousand people.

However, at this moment, three options suddenly appeared in front of him.

[Option [-], repel the invading enemy, and reward three years of internal strength for completion]

[Option [-], help Mrs. Shi escape the enemy's pursuit, and reward a small amount of internal strength for completion. 】

[Option [-], defeat and wipe out the enemy, and reward eighteen generals riding swallows for completion. 】

"I go!"

When Cao Chao saw option three, he almost became violent.

The dog system actually asked him to wipe out the enemy, how could this be possible?

But when Cao Chao saw the reward, tears of poverty flowed from the corner of his mouth again.

This is eighteen generals riding swallows!

In "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", after Zhang Fei was drunk, he relied on the eighteen Yan generals to break through Lu Bu's siege and escape from Xuzhou.

Another time, Zhang Fei fell into Cao Cao's plan to ambush him on all sides. He was besieged by 20 troops, and he had to face the siege of eight fierce generals, including Zhang Liao, Xu Chu, Xu Huang, and Liang Xiahou. Siege.

This is simply the perfect candidate for the Guards!

If I get Eighteen Yan generals and Yanyun eighteen, who can sneak attack me on the battlefield?

"Give it a go!"

After making up his mind, Cao Chao began to carefully survey the surrounding terrain.

He raised his hand and pointed to the two small rivers in front of him and asked:

"How deep is the water here?"

"To the knee."

"And after crossing these two rivers?"

"There is still a hill ahead."

The Canglang King answered every question.

In fact, every time he passed by, the wild wolves under him would find out the way forward, which is also the habit of wolves.

The division of labor is clear, the hierarchy is strict, and the cooperation is seamless.

"Not bad!"

Cao Chao patted the Canglang King on the shoulder approvingly.

Sure enough, he is the strongest scout on the surface, the young man has a future!

After thinking for a while, Cao Chao quickly came up with an idea, and ordered Shi Da and the others:

"After crossing the river, you first protect your sister-in-law and wait on the hillside ahead.

"The Canglang King and I will meet the enemy on the other side of the river, and we will come back to find you after the pursuers are dispersed."

The four listened with disbelief on their faces.

Shi Dalian stepped forward to persuade:

"grown ups!"

"Ok?"

"Uh, Second Master, there are thousands of people on the other side, why don't we abandon the frame and ride lightly, we should be able to get rid of the other party."

Ever since he agreed to pretend to be the uncle of the Shi family, Cao Chao asked Mrs. Shi to order the four of them to change their words, so as not to reveal their flaws when they came to Shouchun in the future.
