The night was deserted, and torches were lit at the head of the city, which was low in the sun.

In the darkness of the night, there was a faint sound of hoofs pulling from far and near.

The guards at the head of the city cheered up, looked at the six or seven figures who had arrived at the city, and asked vigilantly, "Who is under the city?" ”

The firelight shone on Bocai's face, glowing a dull red.

"Go and tell the divine envoy general, and say that Yingchuan Qu is handsome and promising, and he has come to ask for help." The city's Bocai Lerma stopped, looked up at the city, and shouted loudly.

Hearing the word 'Qu Shuai', the guards didn't dare to slack off, and after saying a little wait, they hurriedly ran to report.

Knowing that Bocai had arrived, Zhang Mancheng soon came to the city.

He looked down, the man waiting outside the city, not Bocai, who was it?

"Bo Qushuai, you don't stay in Yingchuan so late, why are you here to block the sun?" Zhang Mancheng asked loudly, the night outside was dark, and Rong had to be cautious.

Speaking of this, Bo Cai was full of anger, and scolded angrily: "That group of Han thieves who were stabbed by a thousand knives took advantage of my unpreparedness to go out and attacked Yang Zhai. I also set up a poisonous plan to kill tens of thousands of my sons, if it weren't for my considerable force, I'm afraid I would have become a pile of bones now! ”

Bocai under the city chattered and scolded, but Zhang Mancheng in the city was a little suspicious.

A few days ago, he found out that Zhu Jun, the right middle general of the Han army, had arrived in Juancheng and intended to attack Duyang. At this juncture, Bo Cai came to ask for help again, which is too much of a coincidence.

In other words, Bocai defected to the Han army, and it is impossible to say.

A cold flash flashed in Zhang Mancheng's eyes.

Chengxia Bocai said a lot, and he saw that Zhang Mancheng still had no intention of recruiting him into the city, and couldn't help but be a little anxious: "Why, the divine envoy general is reluctant to lend me even 3,000 soldiers and horses?" ”

Zhang Mancheng looked at the city's Bocai, the two of them are both Qu Shuai, and there is no big problem when they are in trouble.

He was afraid that Bo would have no other plans and became a lackey of the Han army.

Zhang Mancheng hesitated, and Bo Cai was also bottomless in his heart. If it weren't for Lu Bu's promise to make him a school captain, he really wanted to turn against the water and sell the few people behind him to Zhang Mancheng to be a favor.

Zhang Mancheng is quite scheming, and if you want to gain his trust, you must use some extraordinary means.

"That's it, I thought that the divine envoy general could help me under the condition of serving the same general as the heavenly general. I never thought that it was so unkind, I still went to Runan to invest Peng Qushuai. ”

Bo Cai decided to come to the last hand, and whether he succeeded or failed depends on the will of God.

After speaking, Lerma turned around and prepared to go to Runan.

"Bo Qushuai, I didn't mean that, it's just that in these extraordinary times, I will inevitably be careful, brother." After some pondering, Zhang Mancheng asked the soldiers to open the city gate for Bocai.

It's not that he already believes in Bocai, but Bocai only has five or six horsemen, and he can't afford to make too many waves.

In addition, if this news spreads, it will affect his reputation to some extent. Originally, it stinks enough in the official army, and I have to keep some here at home.

After entering Duyang City, Bo Cai followed Zhang Mancheng to the mansion where he now lives.

The courtyard is very large, guarded by nearly 100 soldiers inside and out.

Zhang Mancheng entered the mansion with Bocai, and when he walked into the mansion, he showed an extremely satisfied look on his face: "When I used to herd cattle for others, I dreamed of being fed and clothed. I never thought that there would be a day when I would live in such a deep mansion. ”

Hearing this, Bo Cai said yes with a smile on his face, but he felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart.

He has lived in a mansion larger than this, hugged countless women with plump breasts and fat buttocks, and also stood in Yingchuan, defeating the officials and the army.

But now, it has fallen into such a situation.

It's not that he didn't think about making a comeback, but whenever he thought of that indifferent young man, Bo Cai felt a special chill in his heart.

When he arrived at the mansion and sat down, Zhang Mancheng sent someone to bring meat and entertain Bocai.

When he saw the martial arts young man standing behind Bo Cai, he couldn't help but be a little curious: "Who is this?" ”

"His name is Sun Wentai, and he is a fierce general under me, if he hadn't tried his best to protect me that day, I would not have escaped from the encirclement and suppression of the Han army."

Bo Cai said with palpitations, seeing Zhang Mancheng's suspicious eyes, and then smiled: "I'm not afraid of the general's jokes, no matter where I go now, if I don't take him with me, I will not be down-to-earth in my heart." ”

Zhang Mancheng retracted his gaze and also laughed: "Okay, okay, you and I are not outsiders, so you don't have to say these foreign words." I'll ask someone to make room for you, and when you're done eating, go early, and get up early tomorrow and set off on your way. ”

Bo Cai heard that he was going to hurry tomorrow, so he bit the leg meat in his hand and asked seemingly casually, "Where are you going?" ”

"Back to Wancheng, of course."

Zhang Mancheng didn't hide it from him, and when he learned that Zhu Jun was going to fight Duyang, he had the idea of retreating to Wancheng.

Compared with the weak defense of Duyang, Wancheng is almost monolithic, and the wide moat, coupled with the food and weapons stored in the city, is enough to defend the officers and soldiers to doubt their lives.

"What, general, are you afraid of the officers and soldiers? If you can trust me, I am willing to take the lead, kill a few of his Han generals, and vent the fire in my heart. Bocai volunteered and said that he would go to the official army to avenge his shame.

The task he received was to cooperate with Sun Jian to kill Zhang Mancheng and capture Duyang, not to follow Zhang Mancheng back to Wancheng to fight against the official army.

Besides, if a flaw is accidentally exposed one day, with Zhang Mancheng's ruthlessness, it is possible to cut him with a thousand knives.

What's more, over there in Wancheng, in addition to Zhang Mancheng, there are also a lot of cow ghosts, snakes, and gods.

I wanted to completely win Zhang Mancheng's trust before I started, but now it seems that it is too late.

Bo Cai's face suddenly showed a surprised expression, pointed behind Bo Cai, and said in a daze: "Who is that?" ”

Zhang Mancheng saw that Bocai was like seeing a ghost, and when he looked back in the direction he was pointing, there was no one empty.

Just as he was wondering, Sun Jian, who was standing behind Bo Cai, suddenly picked up the ink-colored pottery cup on the table and slapped it on the side of Zhang Mancheng's head.

Boom!

The cup made of clay exploded into several pieces at Zhang Mancheng's head, making a muffled sound.

Zhang Mancheng was in pain, blood dripped to the ground along the side, he shook his head, and in his trance, a black shadow paced over.

At this time, no matter how stupid he was, he knew that he had personally attracted the white-eyed wolf Bocai.

He wanted to call out to the soldiers who were patrolling the night outside, but Sun Jian had already quickly walked around behind him, covered Zhang Mancheng's open mouth with his left hand, and pulled out a sharp short blade pinned to the inside with his right hand, piercing his heart directly.

Crisp and clean.

Zhang Mancheng's eyes widened, almost bulging out, and he looked at Sun Jian behind him until he breathed.

After dealing with Zhang Mancheng, Sun Jian wiped the blood from the dagger blade in his hand on his sleeve, and said coldly: "According to the plan, they will do their own thing." ”
