Tang Hun also nodded lightly, but he could not help but start pondering in his heart.
Soon, he found some clues.
"Immediately organize the county soldiers and follow me out of the city.”
"Sir, this... Isn't that inappropriate?" The county soldier was stunned once again and felt a little awkward.
"Are you the lord or am I the lord?”
"If the other party really came from Luoyang, why didn't he come directly to the county?”
"Luoyang is located in the west. Why is Milord rushing to the north? What if this is some traitor's scheme and something really happens to Daren, can you bear the responsibility?”
Tang Hun shouted. How could he not know that there was a problem?
In his opinion, the possibility of a trap was very small, but it was very likely that Chen Gong was playing tricks in the dark.
Once he found out, he could immediately report it to the Imperial Court and send Chen Gong to jail.
At that time, he would naturally become the county magistrate of Zhongmu County.
"Yes, sir!"
The county soldier immediately reacted and quickly went to call for help.

Fifteen Mile Pavilion
In the dark, the Eighteen Cavalry of Yanyun had already set up a perimeter. Cao Cao had also washed off his disguise and returned to his original appearance.
"Zhixiu, do you think Chen Gongtai will come?”
Looking in the direction of Zhongmu County, his eyes were filled with anticipation.
The current Cao Cao had just lost all his previous glory and was now a wanted criminal of the Imperial Court by Dong Zhuo.
It was not an exaggeration to say that he had nothing.
Right now, he really needed the approval of others. Only then would he know that he was right to assassinate Dong. There were still countless people in the world who wanted to save this country that had already rotted to the bones.
Ding Han was one of them.
But in Cao Cao's eyes, Ding Han was no longer an outsider.
What he urgently needed now was the approval of outsiders.
"Let's wait and see. If he's still not here in two hours, we'll leave.”
Ding Han wasn't sure if Chen Gong would come.
After all, what he knew was what he knew. History was history after all. No one in the future had personally experienced it.
Moreover, he might not have transmigrated to ancient times. It was not impossible for him to be in a parallel world.
"Yes!"
Cao Cao nodded lightly. He knew that two hours was already a luxury for them, who were still in danger.
"Stomp!"
"Stomp!"
"Stomp!"
not long
The sound of hurried horse hooves entered everyone's ears. A man wearing a green Confucian robe and an official hat appeared in everyone's sight.
Chen Gong
He still came.
"Phew ~"
Chen Gong stopped and looked at the empty pavilion with a complicated look in his eyes.
He would never forget those words, and he also knew that the person who delivered the letter was most likely the wanted Cao Cao.
"Cao Aman, I respect you as a hero. After receiving your letter, I rushed over without stopping.”
"Why, have you become a coward now? You don't even dare to show your face?”
Chen Gong looked around and shouted.
"My lord, General Cao, there are no soldiers behind the enemy.”
At this moment, Yan One came up from the dark.
Hearing this, Cao Cao was overjoyed. Without any hesitation, he rode his horse out.
"Sigh."
Ding Han wanted to stop Cao Cao and give him some advice.
However, Cao Cao had already walked a few steps away, so Ding Han did not say anything else.
He also knew what Cao Cao was feeling right now.
As for him, he didn't show himself. It wouldn't be too late for him to show himself after the two of them finished talking.
"I didn't expect Brother Gongtai to come so quickly. I was careless and didn't welcome you.”
Cao Cao walked towards the pavilion with a smile on his face. Chen Gong also smiled, but he looked at Cao Cao with some doubt.
"I told the county guards at the door not to let anyone off. How did you get here?”
Chen Gong thought that his security was tight, but Cao Cao had already left Zhongmu County. If he had not sent a letter to invite him over, Cao Cao would have escaped long ago.
"Hahaha, there's a saying that goes,'a hundred secrets are always missed.' I, Cao Cao, was lucky enough to escape the investigation.”
"I could have just left, but when I heard that Brother Gongtai is the magistrate of Zhongmu County, I couldn't help but feel a sense of appreciation for talent. That's why I sent a letter to Brother Gongtai, inviting him to the pavilion for a chat.”
"Love for talent?" Chen Gong looked at Cao Cao with a faint smile on his face.
"If I remember correctly, two years ago, I went to the capital to seek an official position and paid a visit to your Cao Mengde residence.”
"But you're really arrogant. You didn't even look at the famous assassin I submitted to and asked your subordinate to return it to me. You even gave me a sentence.”
"It's fine if you don't become a capital official! It's still fresh in my memory."
Chen Gong said as he took out the letter from his pocket.
"I didn't expect you to invite me with this sentence today.”
Hearing Chen Gong's bitter words, Cao Cao smiled,
"Back then, Cao Cao had eyes but didn't recognize talents.”
"But even now, you still came to my residence to ask for an official position. I still say the same thing. Today's treacherous officials are in power, so it's fine if you don't become a capital official.”
"Humph!" Chen Gong snorted again and continued,
"I'm not angry about what you said, but that you didn't even see me.”
"Cao Ah Man, oh Cao Ah Man, you have always been arrogant, arrogant, and contemptuous of the world.”
"Now that you dare to look for me, aren't you afraid that I will bring the soldiers of Zhongmu County to arrest you?”
"Do you know that your head is worth thousands of gold?”
"A thousand gold is worth 300,000 stone grains, which is equivalent to 375 years of my salary as a county magistrate and a year of food for all the people in Zhongmu County.”
"Adding on the Marquis of Ten Thousand Families, if I, Chen Gong, really wanted to take you, then I would be sitting on a mountain of gold.”
"Hahaha, if you, Chen Gongtai, were such a person, then I, Cao Cao, wouldn't have appeared in front of you today.”
Hearing Chen Gong's words, Cao Cao laughed heartily. He immediately dismounted and came in front of Chen Gong.
"Moreover, if you really wanted to take my head, you wouldn't have come alone.”
Hearing Cao Cao's words, Chen Gong smiled. He sized up Cao Cao and his gaze became profound.
"As far as I know, Dong Zhuo treated you well. Why did you assassinate him?”
Cao Cao glanced at Chen Gong indifferently. He was unable to guess what Chen Gong was thinking.
However, after thinking about it, he still explained,
"My ancestors have enjoyed the Han Dynasty's wealth and received the emperor's grace for generations.”
"If I, Cao Cao, do not think of serving my country, I am no different from a beast.”
"Now that the traitor is in power, the people are in misery, the officials are beheaded, and the scholars are ashamed.”
"The four hundred years of the Great Han Empire is in danger.”
"The more dangerous it is, the more heroes will emerge.”
"All of us with lofty ideals can kill the bandits and make contributions, revitalize the Han Dynasty, and rule the country.”
"If I want to save the country, I must first kill Dong Zhuo. It is precisely to kill the thief that I am willing to serve the thief.”
Cao Cao's speech was impassioned, causing Ding Han, who was watching the live broadcast not far away, to smile.
Cao Cao was indeed the biggest marketing boss of the Three Kingdoms. He opened his mouth at the beginning and relied on deception for the rest.
He was not inferior to the greatest hoodwinker of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Bei.
