Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "Liu Bei sent an envoy?!" Cao Cao was stunned. He was stunned at first, and then furious.

    "Where is the messenger?"

    "Chang'an!" After Liu Bei's envoy arrived in Chang'an, Zhong Yao did not dare to slack off and immediately rushed eight hundred miles to deliver the letter brought by the envoy to Xudu.

    "Tell Zhong Yao to drag him out and chop him down!" Cao Cao really resented Liu Bei very much.  No wonder, at the beginning, Cao Cao treated Liu Bei with honors.

    Lao Cao even took Liu Bei to cook wine and talk about heroes.

    But in the end, he was betrayed by Liu Bei.

    We were promised to be gay friends for life. We were about to sleep in the same bed with Liu Bei and enjoy the blooming chrysanthemums together.

    In the end, I was blushing.

    Not only did Cao Cao betray him, he also killed his generals.

    How can we not make Cao Cao angry?

    Now this Liu Xuande actually dares to send an envoy.

    "I really think he, Lao Cao, has a good temper."

    "Your Majesty, wait a minute, wait a minute!"

    "Letter?!" Lao Cao calmed down his anger under Xun You's reminder, but he still snorted coldly, "He Liu Da'er, no, he should be called Yi Er now!" Liu Bei was shot.  Cao Cao also knew about the one ear, and he felt very comfortable.

    "What good thing can he do by sending a letter with one ear? Could it be that he is asking for help from me and wants to form an alliance with me?" Cao Cao spoke disdainfully. They are indeed two people who are killing each other and falling in love. What did Liu Bei think?  Cao Cao knew it all.

    "Your Majesty! Liu Bei really wants to ask for help from his lord, but this is indeed an opportunity for us!" Xun You said and handed the letter in his hand to Cao Cao over there.

    Cao Cao took the letter in his hand.

    As expected, what was written above were Liu Bei¡¯s disgusting words.

    ¡°What, we were separated from brother Cao Cao back then.  It has been a few years, but it is still fresh in my memory.

    Why did I feel ashamed that I didn¡¯t listen to my brother¡¯s words in the first place, and now I¡¯m in this situation?

    If ordinary people see the content, they will definitely be moved to tears.  But who is Cao Cao?

    "Lord. As Liu Bei said, Liu Mang's army from Yangzhou has entered Jingzhou and is pressing towards Yizhou. If Liu Mang, the king of Han, is allowed to capture Jingzhou and Yizhou, he will really be on par with my army!"  Xun You said to Cao Cao worriedly.

    "Yeah!" Cao Cao also frowned.  He stood up.

    His purpose, Lao Cao, was to support the Han Dynasty and achieve the achievements of Wei Qing and Li Guang.

    It was only later that the Han Dynasty could not be supported, so Cao Cao had to come to power.

    A south with constant disputes and a unified south are completely different to Cao Cao.

    "Your Majesty, although this one ear is not a good thing, it is conclusive!" Xun You also supported killing one ear. The reason why his eldest nephew Xun Yu was moved out by Cao Cao like today  The center of Xudu.  Instead, he went to the barren land of Liaodong, wasn't it because he was brainwashed by this one ear.

    So Xun You still has a hostile attitude towards Liu Bei.

    "If Liu Mang unified Yizhou and occupied Jingchu now, it would be difficult for the king's great cause!" Xun You persuaded Cao Cao from a rational aspect.

    It is telling Lao Cao that although you hate Liu Bei, there is an indisputable fact, that is, the rise of a person who is more threatening than Liu Bei.

    "Before, you didn't send troops because you didn't want Liu Bei to use him as a gun. But now Liu Bei is on his last legs, and it only takes a matter of minutes to kill him.

    It¡¯s time to turn around and deal with another big enemy.

    "Did Liu Bei's envoy say how many troops from Yangzhou had entered Jingzhou?" Cao Cao was not a fool.  Being able to achieve the position of King Wei naturally has his decisiveness.

    "Liu Bei said there were hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses! They are all the elites of Liu Mang's army!" Xun You first told Cao Cao the words sent by Liu Bei's envoy, and then added his own speculation, "However. In You's view, the hundreds of thousands are false.  There are definitely 50,000 soldiers and horses, but the strength is fake, half of them are still there!"

    According to the current scene, in Shouchun.  Around Yangzhou, only half of Liu Mang's army remained.

    The remaining half went to annihilate Liu Bei and also to unify Jingzhou and Yizhou.

    "Half of the troops and horses!" Cao Cao frowned, even if it was half of the troops and horses, this Yangzhou would not be able to fight.?Look down on it.

    ¡°Perhaps it¡¯s because he has lived a comfortable life for a long time, so now Cao Cao¡¯s whole mind is not focused on fighting for world hegemony.

    If there were only a few small princes in the south, Cao Cao would naturally lead his army southward with a wave of his hand, but now the south also has an overlord.

    It is impossible for two powerful forces to fight without losses. Cao Cao has already retreated a bit.

    "A few days ago, Ma Chao from Xiliang made trouble!" Looking at Cao Cao's expression, Xun You knew that Cao Cao was slacking off. Xun You could only give Cao Cao more fuel.

    "Among the army, General Xiahou wrote a letter, and there was a scribe. All the troops in Xiliang called him Zhuge Military Advisor. If Ma Chao hadn't been rebellious and didn't listen to what Zhuge Military Advisor said, General Xiahou would have been unable to defeat the Xiliang bandits!  "Xun You looked at Cao Cao and said.

    "Zhuge Military Advisor?!" Cao Cao's eyes widened.  There are many people with the surname Zhuge in the world, but few are famous. The most famous one now is Zhuge Liang, the Minister of Punishment under Liu Mang.

    This person burned away Jiangdong¡¯s last hope.

    The reason why Sun Ce surrendered was not only to treat Zhou Yu's illness, but also because a fire in the Yangtze River completely burned Jiangdong's capital for world hegemony.

    Without this capital, what would Sun Ce use to fight for hegemony in the world?

    "The people from Cheng Shangshu also sent a message! In Shouchun's several hall meetings, Zhuge Shangshu has never been seen, and the Ministry of Punishment has not seen their master for a long time!" Xun You talked calmly.

    Zhuge Liang is not in Yangzhou, and a Zhuge Shangshu appears in Xiliang!

    Even a fool knows the trick.

    This Zhuge military advisor is probably Zhuge Liang.

    ?Then the entire Xiliang rebellion was also the action of the Yangzhou Army.

    Cao Cao's face darkened. He didn't want to deal with others, but some people didn't want to let him go.

    "Your Majesty, if you don't have long-term worries, you will have immediate worries. Your Majesty has forgotten Xuzhou, has he forgotten Yuzhou, or has your Majesty forgotten Yuan Shao and Yuan Benchu!" Xun You's words were really vicious.

    Xuzhou Yuzhou.  This was all taken by Liu Mang of Yangzhou from Cao Cao's mouth.

    How many times did Cao Cao defeat Xuzhou?

    When Tao Qian was alive, Cao Cao beat him three times and Tao Qian died.  When Liu Bei was here, Lao Cao beat him again, and later Lu Bu was beaten again.

    Lu Bu left and Liu Bei rebelled.  This one more time.

    He attacked Xuzhou six times.

    What does Cao Cao want to do?  In the end, Xuzhou was occupied by Liu Mang's Yangzhou army.

    This is simply making a dowry for others.

    Originally, Lao Cao owned half of the city in Yuzhou, but in order to deal with Yuan Shao, Lao Cao also tried to calm things down, and Lu Bu almost took the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry on an outing in Xudu.

    They were so frightened that they immediately withdrew the army.

    Let Liu Mang gain Yuzhou again.

    Not to mention this, Xun You actually mentioned Yuan Shao and Yuan Benchu.

    Yuan Shao back then was just like Cao Cao today, sitting in the north and looking down on the princes of the Central Plains, thinking that with a wave of his hand, the princes of the Central Plains would surely surrender.

    But never thought of it.  In the end, he was beaten by Lao Cao until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. He was unable to take care of himself, and was imprisoned by his own son. In the end, Nanpi died tragically.

    "I know!" Cao Cao nodded. If he was still hesitant before or said he didn't want to break up with Liu Mang, now Cao Cao has changed his appearance.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? :  This is how Cao Cao feels now.

    In Xun You's eyes, what burst out from Cao Cao's 1.5 meter body at this moment was a heroic temperament belonging to him.

    "Gongda, please go down and discuss matters at Prince Wei's residence!" Cao Cao said to Xun You in a calm voice.

    "Yes!" Xun You's eyes were full of joy.  This was the lord that Xun You wanted to help.

    The whole Xu Dynasty suddenly got rid of the previous decadence, and all Cao Cao's personal guards.  They rushed to the mansions of the generals and adults in Xudu.

    "Father, you want to raise the account to discuss something?! What can you say?" In a Cao Mansion in the city, a young man put down the book in his hand and looked at the visitor and asked.

    This is the first time in months.  The last time I went to Xiliang was recently.

    "Second Young Master, I don't know who the last general is!" The guard who came to deliver the message said with a low eyebrow. He is Cao Cao's relative.Wei can be arrogant among other ministers and generals. After all, he represents Cao Cao, but in this Cao Mansion, he does not dare to be arrogant at all.

    "Okay, I know! Come here. Take this general to the treasury and get a hundred gold. Just say what I promised!" Cao Pi was a good man and immediately waved his hand and rewarded him with ten gold.

    "How can this be done!" The guards had a smile on their brows, but they were polite.

    Cao Pi did not speak but picked up the book. He seemed to be attracted by the world in the book again. The subordinates on the side naturally knew what Cao Pi meant. "Please give me a hand, general!"

    "Thank you, Second Young Master! Thank you, Second Young Master!" The guard left with a smile on his face.

    Cao Pi put down his book again when he saw the guards leaving.

    "A hundred gold! Puff, puff!" A young man who walked out from behind Cao Pi exclaimed, "Second Young Master is so generous!"

    A hundred gold is enough for a wealthy family, and it can be used for several years. Even for Cao Pi's mansion, a hundred gold is enough for a while.

    "Why, Zhongda, you want it too, just take it!" Cao Pi joked as he knew who it was without looking back.

    "What Zhongda is interested in is not the hundred gold, but the person who can shed a hundred gold at once!" Another young man came out. This man had blue eyes and purple hair, and he was so dazzling among the crowd.  .

    "The second young master should have the style of King Wei!" the purple-haired young man continued.

    "That's right!" Cao Pi's words were like gold, but his eyes temporarily glowed. That kind of thing is called ambition.

    "Let's go, Zhongda, Zhongmou, father should be waiting for us!" Cao Pi said.

    "That's what I wish for!" The two of them followed step by step. Outside the mansion, a carriage was prepared early and waiting for the three of them.

    The main one among the three was Cao Pi, and the other two were Sima Yi, named Zhongda, and the other named Sun Quan.  The name is Zhongmou.

    When Cao Pi entered the hall of Prince Wei's mansion, everyone around him came forward to say hello.

    Cao Pi also accepted it happily. Only a few people nodded towards Cao Pi and stopped.

    Although Cao Pi still had a smile on his face, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.  Why, everyone else is talking down to me, Cao Pi, but you guys are just nodding.

    Even though these individuals are his elders, they include Cheng Yu, Xun You and others.

    This feeling.  After the death of his eldest brother Cao Ang, his father Cao Cao became more and more sensitive after he became the king of Wei.

    Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Han Dynasty has completely lost its prestige. The north is now dominated by Cao Cao's group. Cao Cao has now been called the King of Wei. He goes to the palace with a sword and adds nine seals. In the future, he will be the emperor.

    As the current eldest son of Cao Cao, Cao Pi is destined to inherit Cao Cao's great cause. At worst, he is a Wei king with such a status.  How could Cao Pi not feel proud?

    Once rights are tainted, it will be difficult to let go

    "Hey, isn't this my eldest nephew!" A military general grinned at Cao Ren.

    As soon as he heard this voice, Cao Pi's entire face darkened.

    Great nephew!  Although it represents intimacy, some people naturally like not intimacy, but power. He is the master and you are the subject.

    "[Pa" This person's hand slapped directly on Cao Pi's shoulder.

    Cao Pi's face turned blue and he closed his eyes.  He was afraid that the murderous intention inside would be exposed to him.

    However, he still turned around and put a smile on his face, "Uncle Hong!"

    "Hey!" Cao Hong grinned. This was what he wanted. In fact, he and Cao Pi both liked the attention of others.  and envy.

    "It's just that Cao Hong was motivated by vanity, while Cao Pi was motivated by the enjoyment of power.

    "The king will be here soon! Generals, please be quiet!" A eunuch-looking man came out and spoke to everyone.

    The king of Wei is a king, so naturally he must be equipped with eunuchs.

    "The King of Wei is here!"

    "Welcome to the king!"

    "Everyone, get up!" Cao Cao waved his hand and spoke to his hands.

    Cao Cao sat on the throne facing everyone, full of majesty.

    Cao Pi couldn't help but feel hot in his heart as he watched from below. Sooner or later, this position will be mine.

    "Yuan Si. Is there any harvest from the strategy of farming?" Cao Cao immediately asked one of his generals as soon as he sat on the throne.

    He is said to be a military commander but?Wearing the robe of a scribe is not because this person is pretentious, but because he really has no need to fight.

    He is Han Hao, the Central Protector under Cao Cao.

    His mission is not to fight, his mission is to farm and provide food and grass for the entire Cao Cao army.

    "Back to my lord!" Han Hao took a step forward and spoke to Cao Cao, "Half of Yanzhou has already settled in the fields. Going north, Jizhou and Youzhou have also resumed mulberry farming, but Bingzhou is barren. Continuous battles have made it difficult for hundreds of people to live. Bingzhou  There are not many men left, and it will take some time to restore the farmland!"

    Bingzhou is the place where the real heroes of the world are produced, to say a closer place.

    Lu Bu¡¯s Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry and Gao Shun¡¯s Zhen camp are both from Bingzhou.

    Yuan Shao, who was further away, held the Bingzhou cavalry and the Euphorbia soldiers first, and they were all willing to choose from the soldiers and horses of Bingzhou.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? You fight and I fight, there are not many men left in Bingzhou.  Therefore, it is difficult to restore mulberry farming for a while.

    "Yes!" Cao Cao nodded, he had also heard about Bingzhou.

    "Yuan Si, since the merger of the states is like this, we should check the household registration, mobilize the people in Guanzhong, and reduce taxes!" Cao Cao immediately made up his strategy.

    "Your Majesty," before Cao Cao finished speaking, Han Hao over there interrupted.

    "Hmm? Yuan Si, do you have anything to say?"

    "Your Majesty, although Bingzhou is deserted, it is not suitable to mobilize the people in Guanzhong!" Han Hao started talking to Cao Cao. Although the matter of Bingzhou was urgent, after all, the grain-producing lands of Yanzhou and Jizhou were not able to grow all the food.

    The top priority now is to meet the needs of Guanzhong first. We can't let the fertile land in Guanzhong go to develop the barren land in Bingzhou.

    "Well, what Yuan Si said makes sense! But if things continue like this, Bingzhou may be uninhabited!" Cao Cao is also worried that if this continues, there will be fewer people in Bingzhou.

    "Your Majesty, these generals have also thought of a plan and don't know whether to take it seriously or not!" Han Hao hesitated a little.

    "explain!"

    "Your Majesty, we should learn from Liu Mang of Yangzhou and encourage fertility. Divide the fields, so that we can restore the union of the states!"

    Before Han Hao finished speaking, everyone started shouting.

    "No, Your Majesty!"

    "General Han, what nonsense are you talking about!"

    "These people called De Zuixiong must be those nobles.  Divide the fields?  Just kidding, none of their families have thousands of acres of fertile land. If they were to play like Yangzhou, they would have finished playing it long ago.

    They represent the big landowners, and you expect the landowners to divide their fields.  dream.

    Han Hao¡¯s face was livid. He naturally knew the difficulty involved. ¡°Please let the lord judge everything!¡±

    "Yes! What Han Ha said makes sense!" Cao Cao nodded and confirmed Han Hao's words. A group of nobles below became anxious.

    "However, merging the state is not Yangzhou, and our army is not the Yangzhou army!" How could Cao Cao not know that dividing the fields and belonging to the government was a good policy, but Cao Cao couldn't do it!

    Because Cao Cao is supported by these big landowners!  Sometimes Cao Cao also envied Liu Mang, the king of Han, who developed from nothing.

    So he doesn¡¯t have to worry so much.  He can kill whoever he wants, and those noble clans can't restrain Liu Mang at all.

    But Cao Cao is different. He relied on these noble clans to develop. His army is filled with children of various noble clans. If Cao Cao takes over the land and returns it to the court today, then his old Cao's men will be able to rebel tomorrow.

    "But!" Han Hao still wanted to persist.

    "Nothing! General Han Hao, it is simply impossible to divide the fields. Everyone in office, the largest owners of the fields should be my Cao family and Xiahou family. Does General Han want to give our two families their fields as well?"  Let's go!" Before Cao Cao could speak, Cao Pi over there spoke first.

    Cao Cao frowned for a moment, then relaxed.

    Some of the nobles nearby couldn't help but be overjoyed when they saw Cao Pi's words. This shows that Cao Pi is on the side of their nobles.  Everyone was vying to add insult to injury, making nonsense remarks to Han Hao, and almost said that Han Hao was a spy sent by Liu Mang.

    "Pfft!" Just as everyone was arguing, a laugh spread.

    "Who is laughing at you?" This laughter was so harsh in Cao Pi's ears that Cao Pi couldn't help but exhale.

    But the laughter suddenly disappeared again.

    "Humph. Which general is still an adult? How dare you laugh but dare not speak!"??Cao Pi continued to say coldly, he, Cao Pi, enjoyed this feeling very much. He was the center of everyone's attention.

    "Why don't you dare to say anything!" came a very immature voice.

    Everyone looked at the source of the sound and saw that it was really a doll, looking about eleven or twelve years old.

    This is the meeting hall of Prince Wei's residence, but I never expected that such children who have not yet reached the age of crown would appear.

    "Whose heir is this? Don't you know this is the palace of Prince Wei?" Cao Pi glanced at the generals and ministers with cold eyes, none of them dared to look at the future master of the Cao family.

    Cao Cao didn¡¯t want to speak at all. He just sat back and watched the power of his son Cao Pi. After all, Cao Cao¡¯s final great cause was to be taught to his sons, and Cao Pi was Cao Cao¡¯s eldest son.

    "If a child questions Cao Pi, how will Cao Pi deal with important matters in the future if he can't handle it well?"

    "What did you royal guards do! You let this person sneak in! Come on, please take this guy out!" Cao Pike is really ruthless. This young man is only eleven or twelve years old.  , but they have to drag him out and beat him with a stick, for fear that after the beating, the person will be useless.

    "No doubt, no doubt!" There was an even smaller boy following behind this boy, shouting to him.

    When Cao Cao and others saw the young man behind them, they couldn't help but feel stupid.

    "Young Master!" Everyone exclaimed, and the person following behind him was none other than Cao Chong, Cao Cao's youngest son.

    "Chong'er?" Cao Cao was also stunned. He didn't remember how he got Cao Chong to come to the meeting hall.

    ¡°Brother Chong?!¡±

    "Father, second brother, please ask father to atone for his sins. I insisted on coming to see my father's kingly style, so that's why I brought Bu Sui Qian here!" Cao Chong stepped forward and acted cute, putting all the blame on himself.  "If it's my second brother and you want to hit me, just hit me!"

    Hit you?  !  Cao Pi's heart became gloomy. Not to mention that Cao Chong was Cao Cao's most beloved son, even if he wasn't, Cao Pi would not dare to violate this brotherly love.

    "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter!" Cao Cao chuckled, "Come on, Chong'er, come to your father!" Cao Cao said dotingly to Cao Chong.  (To be continued.)
