Chapter 348: Xuzhou Revenge War
In the third year of the first peace, the remnants of the Yellow Turbans, who were originally only active in Qingzhou, invaded Yanzhou and broke the county and approached Shouyang. Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou, led his troops out to fight, but was killed in front of the battle.
Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei, rushed to the Chang'an court, and Zhu Junbao, one of the three generals of the Eastern Han Dynasty, raised Cao Cao, the Taishou of Dongjun, to send troops to quell the rebellion.
After Cao Cao received the order, he left Li Wei and Cao Hong to garrison Dongjun, raised 30,000 horses, claimed to be 50,000, and Cao Ren and Xiahou Yuan were the vanguard of the front army. Cao Cao and a group of generals led the Chinese army, and Xu Rong supervised the rear army to escort supplies, grain and grass.
Jibei Prime Minister Bao Xin welcomed Cao Cao in front of the battle, and after the two joined forces for a day of rest, the thief was broken in Shouyang. Bao Xin pursued the Yellow Turban deserters to a dangerous place, was ambushed by the Yellow Turban Army, and was killed in battle.
After Cao Cao heard the bad news, he inspired the Yanzhou mourning army with the deaths of Liu Dai and Bao Xin, and finally annihilated the elite of the Yellow Turbans in Jibei and recruited the remnants of the Yellow Turbans.
In the third year of the first peace, in winter, Cao Cao, the Taishou of Dongjun, recruited the Yellow Turbans of Qingzhou, with more than 300,000 soldiers and more than 100,000 men and women. Cao Cao ordered Xiahoudun and Xiahou Yuan to select the elite from more than 300,000 soldiers, and got 100,000 elites, called 'Qingzhou soldiers', and the rest were ordered to be naturalized and returned to agriculture.
Cao Cao reported the letter of victory to the Chang'an court, and Li Dao and Guo Yan were added to Cao Cao as the general of Zhendong under Zhu Jun's Jianyi, and the latter received the holy decree and moved the Yanzhou administrative office from Changyi to Puyang.
Cheng Yu and Xun Yu have known each other for a long time, and after meeting Cao Cao, they recommended their friend Guo Jia, and Guo Jia recommended Guangwu's descendant, Liu Ye. Liu Ye recommended Manzhong and Lu Qian again, and the two recommended Mao Jue.
In addition to Wenchen's vote, the original Bao Xinxia was forbidden to be impressed by Cao Cao's charm, and led Bao Xin's remaining army to the new Yanzhou Mu Cao Cao.
Another day, when Xiahoudun was hunting in the suburbs, he met a strong man who was fighting with a fierce tiger and invited him to join Cao's army, and the latter agreed. When the two returned to Puyang, they happened to meet the banner outside the camp for the strong wind to the brink, the strong man saw this, dismounted and drank back the soldiers, single person held the flagpole, standing still.
"This is the evil of the ancients!! Cao Cao heard this, and gradually put this warrior named Dian Wei by his side as a personal guard.
……
Of course, the above things have nothing to do with Li Wei, after he came to Puyang from Dongjun, he has been looking for another blacksmith to build a weapon for himself.
really found a descendant of Ou Zhizi's apprentice for Li Wei, because Cao Cao's rule was relatively stable, so many refugees poured into Yanzhou, including many skilled craftsmen.
"I am confident that the halberd designed by the general can be built, but if I only use ordinary iron to build it, it will only waste the design of such a divine weapon......" said to Li Wei, the descendant of Ojiko's apprentice.
"So what to do?" asked Levy.
"I heard that there is a wealthy merchant in the city whose family has a meteorite that fell from the sky, which is suitable for such a divine weapon. ”
With information intelligence, the rest is easy to solve. Li Wei is now an official, and he is also an official with a non-official position, so the rich businessman surnamed Zhang obediently handed over the collection of extraterrestrial meteorite out of the premise of currying favor or fear. Of course, Li Wei would not do anything to rob him, and he handed over two-thirds of his property to a wealthy merchant surnamed Zhang as the cost of buying meteoric iron, which made the latter breathe a sigh of relief and have a good impression of Cao Cao's governance.
After obtaining the Outer Meteorite, the blacksmith began to build weapons for Li Wei one by one, and it took nearly eight months to finally create a divine weapon.
"Good! good!" Looking at the divine soldier handed over by the blacksmith, Li Wei shouted uncontrollably.
"This halberd weighs one hundred and ten catties, one zhang and two feet long, only 19 catties lighter than the Tianlong Broken City Halberd used in the past, three inches shorter; Because the whole halberd was made of extraterrestrial meteorite iron and was bright silver, I named him the Silver Dragon Earthquake Halberd. The blacksmith introduced Li Wei.
"Good!"
……
In the autumn of the fourth year of the first peace, Cao Cao led Yanzhou to herd and shocked Shandong, and sent his subordinates to Langya County to pick up his father Cao Song and the children of the clan to fulfill his filial piety.
Unexpectedly, half a month later, Cao Cao received bad news, his father Cao Song was killed in Xuzhou, and the perpetrator was Xuzhou Mu Taoqian's general, Zhang Min.
"I'm going to kill Tao Qian!!" Cao Cao's eyes were red, and he shouted angrily through gritted teeth. A group of Cao generals such as Cao Ren and Cao Hong also grinned, and the Cao family and Xiahou were in the same vein, and Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan had already knelt on their chests and cried, and shouted revenge.
Cao Cao ordered the whole army to wear filial piety, all dressed in white clothes and plain armor, and hurriedly made a white flag, rusting on the four red characters of 'revenge and hatred'.
Although Cao Cao was under the wrath, he also understood the importance of the stability of the rear, and retained Xiahoudun, Cao Ren, Cheng Yu and Xun Yu to garrison Yanzhou, and promoted a number of young Cao and Xiahou sons to be middle-level generals, and went with the army to defend the dangerous roads in Yanzhou.
Li Wei still commanded a thousand tiger horses, directly belonging to Cao Cao's army, and the number was still maintained at 1,000. After Cao Cao obtained a large number of Qingzhou troops, he intended to use the elite of Qingzhou soldiers as the basis and according to the training method of thousands of tiger horses, and create another tiger and leopard cavalry and led it by the children of the clan. To this end, Cao Cao transferred Xiahou Jun and Cao Liang away from the Thousand Tiger Riders and stayed in the rear, and began to train the Tiger and Leopard Riders. At the same time, Cao Cao transferred two of his relatives to serve as Qu Hou on a thousand tiger horses.
"Cao Xiu (Cao Zhen) See Captain !!" The two young men came to Li Wei's camp tent and knelt down on one knee to salute Li Wei with a fist.
"Two of you, please. Li Wei stretched out his hand and said.
"Captain Xie!" After the two stood up, they looked at Li Wei with an expression of excitement and excitement on their faces.
Since Li Wei became famous in the Battle of Tiger Prison Pass, coupled with the fact that he retreated under Li Ru's design when he pursued Dong Zhuo, his prestige has spread all over the Han Dynasty.
Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen were young disciples of the Cao Cao clan, and Cao Cao, who followed Chen Liu's army to fight against Dong Zhuo at the age of the weak crown, naturally witnessed Li Wei's majesty and domineering on the battlefield.
"Captain, this is a secret order from the lord, please take a look. Cao Zhen handed Li Wei a bag and said.
"Herald...... Thousands of tigers ride to make food, and after they are full, they set off at the right time!" Li Wei thought for a while after reading the secret order in the bag, and ordered loudly.
"No!" After Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen received Li Wei's order, they did not suspect him and withdrew from the camp after agreeing to the promise.
"Even if it is not for Cao Cao's hegemony, if you want me to slaughter innocent people, even if this is a copy of the world, it is still a living life...... It seems that we have to find a reason to obey Cao Cao, so as not to shed a river of blood. Li Wei muttered alone in the tent.
In the autumn of the fourth year of the first peace, Cao Cao raised 100,000 soldiers and horses, and sent 150,000 troops to Xuzhou. Within a month, Li Wei led a thousand tiger cavalry to go down to more than ten cities and counties in Xuzhou and killed the rich and unkind merchants or scholars in the city and did not move the people, Cao Cao's army gradually won the favor of the people, as long as Cao Cao's army entered the city, the people immediately ate pot pulp and welcomed the road. The Xuzhou army could not resist it, so it had to retreat to the East China Sea and defend it.
Because winter is approaching, Cao Cao has to suspend his revenge, and at the same time he has to ask Li Wei for his guilt!!
