Chapter 1180

It read thirteen large characters: Tomb of the late close friend, General of the Han who Conquers the West, Cao Cao!

In the lower right corner of the tombstone, there was also a row of small seal script: Established by close friend Duan Yu at Gaochang Wall in the second year of Zhongping!

And behind the stone monument, which was more than a person tall, there was also a piece of small seal script, also dyed red with cinnabar.

Wild geese fly beyond the northern border, in a land without people.

Raising their wings for ten thousand miles, their movements form their own lines.

In winter they eat southern rice, in spring they fly north again.

In the fields there are rolling tumbleweeds, drifting far with the wind.

Forever cut off from their original roots, for ten thousand years they will not be the same.

Alas, this soldier, how can he be driven in all directions!

The warhorse does not loosen the saddle, the armor does not leave the side.

Slowly the old age is approaching, when will I return to my hometown?

The divine dragon hides in the deep spring, the fierce beast walks on the high ridge.

The fox dies returning to its home hill, how can one forget their hometown!

Late: Written by General who Conquers the West, Cao Cao!

Duan Yu placed one hand lightly on the tombstone.

His expression was lonely and sad.

Let the world say Cao Cao is treacherous, say Cao Cao is fierce, or even say what Cao Cao's character is like.

But these have nothing to do with Duan Yu.

Standing from the perspective of a bystander, everyone has their own position.

But he is not a bystander, he is a participant in this era.

He is a carriage on this road of chaotic times.

Regardless of that Cao Cao in history, this Cao Cao, who is buried deep underground with only his clothes and hat, is his close friend.

He believes that this is one of the few close friends in the world who can be on the same frequency as him.

That is enough.

"Mengde, you... how could you be so careless... what about your suspicious nature, how did you get calculated by others..."

Duan Yu said while stroking the tombstone: "The Western Region beauties I sent you haven't had time to enjoy yet... you are dead, what do you want me to say..."

"I will take care of your wife?"

"You sent your wife and children to me, you are letting me raise them for you, you are really at ease..."

"You are... letting me be a Cao thief!"

"Look, my subordinates now are all yours."

"Now it's good, the family has also been brought to me, if I inherit your Wei Wu style... tsk tsk..."

Duan Yu said, while taking off the wine pouch hanging from his waist.

Splash~

The strong liquor produced in Liangzhou spilled on the ground.

It seeped into the parched loess.

"This wine doesn't have a name yet. I originally wanted to give it a more domineering name, but after thinking about it, there is nothing good to use. You are dead anyway, so let's use your name. From now on, this wine will be called Mengde!"

"Meng belongs to the water element in the five elements, and has the meaning of beginning and start, while De represents, the character is heavy and thick, just like this wine... long and long..."

"Although this life is not as brilliant as yours in history, I also hope that the world can remember you."

"Remember that I, Duan Yu, once had such a close friend, named Cao Mengde!"

Saying this, Duan Yu raised the wine pouch.

The mellow and spicy wine liquid poured into his abdomen, dripping from the corners of his mouth onto the armor on his chest.

After drinking the wine in the wine pouch, he threw it into the distance.

"Bring the halberd!"

Duan Yu gave a loud roar.

In the distance, Da Hei, carrying the newly cast Heavenly Dragon Breaking City Halberd, ran wildly and jumped onto the high hill, stopping in front of Duan Yu.

Duan Yu grabbed this divine weapon, which was recast with meteorite iron and was three times heavier than the previous Heavenly Dragon Breaking City Halberd.

This recast Heavenly Dragon Breaking City Halberd was dark red all over, and there were some stars and dots in it that seemed to be shining with golden light.

Two golden dragons coiled upward on the halberd body, extending all the way to the halberd blade, and under the halberd blade, two small crescent-shaped branches dragged the war halberd to the left and right.

Then Duan Yu pointed his finger into the distance, and Da Hei left the loess high hill in response.

Duan Yu, standing on the loess high hill, raised the Heavenly Dragon Breaking City Halberd in his hand, and a thunderous sound rang out.

Above the sky, there was a dragon's roar.

The halberd technique, which had been upgraded to a 【Golden Entry】, was displayed.

Purple lightning began to shuttle between the clouds, carrying rolling thunder and dragon roars.

"Soul, return!"

"Mengde, return!"

Woo!

Below the loess high hill, a low and soul-shaking horn sound rang out, traveling through this ancient sea of sand.

Thousands of Liangzhou soldiers knocked their long weapons on the ground, and the sea of sand trembled.

After taking one last look at the tombstone, Duan Yu turned and walked down the hill.

"Wenhe."

Duan Yu walked to the front of the army and looked at Jia Xu, who was in a black robe, and said: "Write a letter and send it to Liu Bei, tell him..."

"Within a month, if I don't see Zhang Rao's head, then when I go to take it myself, it won't be so simple."

Jia Xu put his hands in his sleeves, his expression as usual, without rushing to answer, nor rushing to agree.

Duan Yu, who knew Jia Xu's habits, did not speak to affect Jia Xu's consideration.

After a while, Jia Xu frowned and spoke.

"Lord, the subordinate feels that there are still some oddities in this matter."

"Tell me." Duan Yu said in a deep voice: "My thoughts are confused now."

Cao Ren and Dian Wei also stood by and listened.

"That Zhang Rao was originally a Qu Shuai of the Qingzhou Huang Jin, and now he has accepted Liu Bei's surrender."

"But why did he use this method of fake surrender to deceive General Cao at that time?"

"Is this unreasonable?"

"Since he wanted to surrender, General Cao was the Inspector of Yanzhou, and Liu Bei was only a Chancellor of Langya. It is conceivable who could give Zhang Rao greater benefits!"

"General Cao could promise Zhang Rao a Commandery Governor, but could Liu Bei?"

Duan Yu shook his head slowly.

Clearly, Liu Bei could not achieve this, because as the Chancellor of Langya, Liu Bei was equivalent to a Grand Administrator.

"Then why did Zhang Rao take a dangerous path, corrupt his own character to surrender to General Cao, and then fake surrender, and then turn to Liu Bei?"

"Doesn't Zhang Rao worry that Liu Bei will question his character?"

Makes sense.

What Jia Xu said makes sense.

Character is an extremely important thing in this era.

Walking in this era, a person's character is more critical.

A person with bad character will not be welcomed anywhere. Clearly, the anti-corruption anomaly is between this corruption of character.

Historically, it is not that Cao Cao had not experienced such rebellion.

And it was experienced several times.

After Cao Cao killed Bian Rang, he was betrayed by Chen Gong, and almost lost the entire Yanzhou.

And the Battle of Wancheng, where he accepted the surrender of Zhang Xiu, was almost the same as what happened now.

But Zhang Xiu's rebellion had certain external factors.

Saying that one shot harmed three sages is a bit exaggerated, but it contains certain components, which is also the reason for Zhang Xiu's rebellion.

The main reason was that Cao Cao openly divided Zhang Xiu's subordinates at that time, making Zhang Xiu feel a crisis.

"Also, the subordinate heard what General Cao Ren said about the situation at that time, and there are many doubts." ===== CHAPTER 1182 =====
