Chapter 74: Assassination

In the sixth year of Zhongping, December.

Cao Cao borrowed Wang Yun's seven-star treasure knife and wanted to take the opportunity to assassinate Dong Zhuo, but he was unsuccessful, and then escaped from Luoyang.

Dong Zhuo was furious and issued an official document informing the states, counties, and counties to arrest Cao Cao.

After Cao Cao took out Luoyang, he stayed at his old friend Lu Bohao's house on the way, and his son was hospitable, so he sharpened his knife and prepared to kill pigs and cattle. After Cao Cao saw this situation, he suspected that the Lu family was harmful to him, and in a fit of anger, he killed Lu Bohao's family of eight and fled. When he fled to Zhongmu County, Cao Cao was caught by the pavilion chief of Zhongmu County and handed over to the county magistrate.

At that time, the official document for the arrest of Cao Cao had been sent to Zhongmu County, and Gongcao of Zhongmu County also knew that the person who caught him was Cao Cao himself, but Gongcao thought that a hero like Cao Cao should not be arrested when there was a big chaos today, so he asked the county order to release Cao Cao.

The county order agreed to Gong Cao's request and let Cao Cao go.

Cao **li escaped and fled to Chenliu County.

At the end of the sixth year of Zhongping, Cao Cao relied on the support of the Cao family and the Xiahou family, as well as the family wealth in Chen Liu and the financial support of Chen Liu's Weizi, scattered the family wealth, joined the righteous soldiers, and took the lead in advocating righteousness and calling on the heroes of the world to crusade against Dong Zhuo, and Cao Cao also organized an army of 5,000 people to fight against Dong Zhuo.

Hanzhong County, Nanzheng.

Nanzheng is one of the birthplaces of human civilization in the Hanshui Basin, in the Western Zhou Dynasty, Nanzheng was an important town in the middle reaches of the Han River, and it was one of the earliest counties in Shaanxi Province during the Warring States Period. After the Qin Dynasty built Nanzheng City in 451 B.C., Nanzheng has always been the county guard of Hanzhong County, and when Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, was the king of Han, he used Nanzheng as the capital.

In the early period of the Western Han Dynasty, the seat of Hanzhong County was still in Nanzheng.

After Emperor Xuan, the county was moved to Xicheng, and around the twelfth year of the Eastern Han Dynasty (36 AD), the county was moved back to Nanzheng from Xicheng, making Nanzheng the county guard of Hanzhong County again.

It took nearly half a month for Wang Can and his entourage to finally arrive in Hanzhong.

At this time, it was December of the sixth year of Zhongping, and Wang Can also got the news that Cao Cao had escaped from Luoyang.

Cao Cao fled to Luoyang, first killed Lu Bohao's family by mistake, then fled to Zhongmu County, and finally returned to Chenliu County, with the help of the Cao family and the Xiahou family, raised troops to defeat Dong Zhuo.

Wang Can knew the history and understood that there was about to be an alliance of princes to crusade against Dong Zhuo.

And now that Cao Cao has raised his army, the time for the alliance of the princes is becoming more and more urgent.

It's just that his family knows his own affairs, Wang Can is still a Hanzhong Taishou with an empty shell, although he has mastered Hanzhong County and become a prince, but Wang Can's troops can be used only more than 600 Yellow Turban soldiers, and after he wants to recruit soldiers and get Hanzhong, he can re-recruit the army.

Therefore, for Wang Can, the most lacking thing is time......

In Nanzheng County, three miles outside the city, officials of Hanzhong County waited eagerly, waiting for Wang Can's carriage to arrive.

"Here ......

"Here ......

"The new Taishou has arrived at ......"

In the ranks of officials, an exclamation came, and a pair of people and horses drove slowly on the official road.

The leader was a black-faced man riding a brown horse, carrying a shining mace in his hand, and he looked around left and right, looking at his surroundings. Behind the black-faced man were carriages moving slowly, and on both sides of the carriage and behind the carriage were hundreds of soldiers in armor.

"Taishou-sama arrives ......"

Among the officials, I don't know who was the first to shout.

"Meet Taishou-sama."

All the Hanzhong officials shouted in unison, and then bowed to the slowly moving vehicle.

Wang Can sat in the carriage, heard the shouts coming from outside the carriage, and said to Cai Yan: "Yan'er, you stay in the carriage and don't come out, you know?" ”

Cai Yan nodded and said, "Brother Can, Yan'er understands, you go." ”

After finishing speaking, Cai Yan sat down in front of Wang Can again, stretched out his slender and white little hand to smooth the folds on Wang Can's clothes, and glanced at Wang Can again, then nodded with satisfaction.

Wang Can smiled faintly, then lifted the curtain and walked out.

When Wang Can got out of the carriage, Wang Yue also got out of the carriage in the fourth carriage and walked behind Wang Yue to protect Wang Yue's safety.

Wang Can walked up to the officials and thanked him: "When Wang Can first arrived in Hanzhong, he was greeted by all the adults, and he was very grateful. ”

After a pause, Wang Can said again: "Hanzhong County is full of treasures, outstanding people, and has always been a place where heroes come out. Bo Wanghou and Daxing ordered Zhang Qian to envoy to the Western Regions, contacted the 52 countries of the Western Regions, opened up the road to the Western Regions, and made immortal contributions; In this dynasty, there are Emperor Shun, Emperor Chong, Emperor Qian, Emperor Qian, the three dynasties of the veteran Taiwei Li Gu, Li Taiwei is upright, known as the 'Beidou mouthpiece', everyone admires, and the people are praised. ”

"Such a brilliant Hanzhong, there are many talents, Wang Canxi is the Taishou of Hanzhong, fortunately, fortunately."

"The princes can come here to greet him, Wang Can is very ashamed in his heart, how can Wang Can be so virtuous, he actually bothered you ......"

Wang Can's words are deep and sincere.

Hanzhong officials heard Wang Can praise Hanzhong so much, everyone was smiling, I didn't expect Hanzhong to be so good in Wang Can's eyes, as a Hanzhong official, to be born in Si, grow up in Si, it is really a great thing.

"Wang Can, you hypocrite, I'm going to kill you."

Just when Wang Can was giving a passionate speech, a military general wearing black armor, a copper helmet on his head, and a war knife hanging from his waist rushed out, only to hear a sonorous sound, the war knife in the general's hand was unsheathed, and the sharp tip of the knife pointed directly at Wang Can's chest, stabbing at Wang Can.

Seeing this, Wang Can's expression was as usual, and a smile was hooked at the corner of his mouth, someone actually assassinated?

He was still thinking about how to start governing Hanzhong after arriving in Hanzhong? As soon as I thought of this, someone actually sent it to the door.

If you really want something, you can come.

The incident happened suddenly, and the general's steel knife was urgent and fast, and it was already very close to Wang Can. Suddenly, I saw a black sword light rushing up from behind Wang Can, the black sword light was extremely dazzling, stabbing people's eyes couldn't open, and the general who wanted to assassinate Wang Can with a war knife in his hand was shaken by the sword light, only to feel that his eyes were stinging, and he immediately closed his eyes.

But the moment he closed his eyes, when he just opened his eyes, another sword light flashed in front of his eyes.

With a bang, the general felt a pain in his throat.

"Poof... Burst... Poof......"

A trace of blood appeared from the general's neck, and in an instant, scarlet blood gushed out from the general's throat.

"You, how could you ......"

The military general pointed at Wang Can, his eyes were full of consternation, and his face was full of unwillingness. The war knife in his hand only needed to stab one more foot forward to penetrate Wang Can's heart, but unfortunately this foot was a failure, and the assassination was not successful. With a crisp sound of the bell, the war knife in the general's hand fell to the ground, and then, there was another muffled bang, and the general's eyes rolled and he collapsed to the ground, convulsing twice and then losing his breath.

Wang Can snorted coldly, and his face suddenly became gloomy.

Sen Leng's gaze swept over the faces of the officials, and the light full of anger was fierce and cold, making the Hanzhong officials feel a chill in their hearts, and they felt a chill rise from the soles of their feet.

At this time, the officials in Hanzhong knew that things were in trouble.

Wang Can's actions in Shangyong County have fully reflected Wang Can's domineering and ferociousness, and now there are Hanzhong officials who assassinate Wang Can in broad daylight, isn't this a reason for Wang Can to rectify Hanzhong officials?
