That night, Shouchun City was under martial law.

The Yongliang soldiers, who lived in Shouchun Palace, made a big move to take the Liu family of the Shouchun clan into prison.

After investigating and dealing with Liu's study, the Yongliang soldiers copied the Qi family and the Tao family according to the retrieved letters.

In this process, the Qi clan organized the Menke Nursing Home to try to resist, but the Yongliang soldiers broke through the house in half an hour, and those who participated in the resistance were executed. Minor boys and girls are sent to the Department of Education for "re-education".

Incidentally, I would like to mention the Department of Teaching Workshops established by Zhang Xiu after he came to power. After the fall of Yuan Shu, there were not only palace maids and concubines who stayed in various palaces, but also some eunuchs specially recruited by Yuan Shu as the emperor.

Some palace maids and concubines with good conduct were selected by Zhang Xiu and rewarded the maids who made bed warmers for their subordinates.

As for some other palace maids and concubines who are not very good in character or temperament, as well as those eunuchs who are no longer normal people, Zhang Xiu opened a teaching workshop department to raise this group of people, so that these people can specialize in singing and dancing instruments, which are used to perform and enrich Zhang Xiujun's spiritual entertainment life.

……

This night, Shouchun's hooligan ruffians also fell into bad luck. Zhang Xiu's descendants, Yongliang soldiers, searched for the Assassin Yu Dang in the city, and swept all the places in the city that were three sects and nine streams.

Early the next morning, Shouchun vegetable market.

A thousand Yongliang troops lined up on the four streets, and a hundred swords and axes stood on a high platform.

More than 300 people from the Liu, Qi, and Tao clans and disciples suspected of assassinating Zhang Xiu, as well as more than 3,000 hooligans and ruffians in Shouchun, were sentenced and beheaded!

When the patriarch of the Qi clan of the Liu family was dying, he still scolded Zhang Xiu, scolded Zhang Xiu for his planned economy, and scolded Zhang Xiu for his "deprivation and atrocity" against half of the families in Huainan.

However, this is of no avail. Each of the 100 axemen cut an average of more than 30 knives, and some of them cut all the blades. It has been cut from early in the morning to the red sun hanging, and the blood under the wooden platform is like a river, and the broken head is rolling.

……

It's night, Zhang Xiu's mansion.

"Let's go!" Under the faint light, a voice that was neither high, nor low, nor sad or angry came from the mouth of a Gundam man.

The swaying lights set off the thin figure of a woman next to her.

The woman didn't say a word, just stared at the tall man's back.

For a long time, a long time, the wind was stronger and colder, and the man finally turned around. The tall body and angular face are bloodless and extremely pale.

"Take care of Quan'er Ruo'er for me." Zhang Xiu's face was expressionless.

Yuan Lan stared at Zhang Xiu's eyes and never deviated from his gaze.

Although under the persecution of her brother and brother-in-law, she had witnessed this unusual face many times. But never once did he look him in the eye for so long.

His face often shows his mood. It was as if now, his meticulous face with almost no trace of emotional fluctuations told Yuan Lan that his mood was extremely heavy at the moment, so heavy that he couldn't show the corresponding face.

The first time the two met, it was the line of Mrs. Zou who was pulled between their brothers.

first persuaded Mrs. Zou to find a few people who could take Zhang Xiu's child. Then guide Mrs. Zou step by step on the issue of selection.

The person who takes care of Zhang Quan and Zhang Ruo must not be an ordinary maidservant, at least a person who knows aristocratic etiquette and has good conduct, and it is best that he is from a big family and can give Zhang Xiu's successor a good temperament and cultivation.

So Yuan Lan came.

But this candidate is not necessarily from Yuan Lan, who is under Yuan Shu's knees, there are many families in Huainan who are willing to get close to Zhang Xiu, and there are countless ladies in line. It's just that Mrs. Zou considers that although Yuan Shu's branch has declined, it can also represent a part of the Huainan clan.

And Zhang Xiu overthrew Yuan Shu and became the ruler of Huainan, what he lacked was the support of the upper family.

……

The first time we met, it was also in the evening, but it wasn't so cold at that time.

That night, Yuan Lan hurriedly glanced at Zhang Xiu's eyes, which were glowing. But this night, Yuan Lan couldn't see any color in Zhang Xiu's eyes, as if it was a big deal, and it was no longer enough to make his eyes ripple again.

"Take care of yourself." Yuan Lan said softly.

With that, Yuan Lan turned around and left.

A cold wind blows.

When Yuan Lan was about to walk out of the gate of the mansion, there was a sound of hurried footsteps behind him, and then, a large fur cover covered Yuan Lan's thin body.

"Don't come back until Huainan is settled."

……

"This battle has not yet sent troops, and the old man already knows that Wen Jin is bound to lose!"

"When Cao Mengde raised his army, there were only more than 10,000 township soldiers and a few relatives generals. After Luoyang was burned, Cao Cao made a good move and caused a great defeat in Xingyang. At that time, the soldiers and horses were scattered, and there were only a few hundred soldiers left. ”

So he was defeated and left Kanto, and he could no longer act in the name of a prince. When he was most depressed, even his hometown Chen Liu could not be stationed, and in order to supplement the source of troops, he even went to Yangzhou to recruit soldiers and horses. ”

"It's just that in Yanzhou, the battle against the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, but it was the times that created a hero. This person sits in the land of Yanzhou by mistake, and has three or four hundred thousand strong Qingzhou. not only returned to the ranks of the princes, but also became the first prince in the Central Plains in one fell swoop! ”

"But it's not a good thing to start too fast, and the shallow foundation is bound to not last long!"

"I am commenting on Cao Mengde, but it is also for Wen Jin!"

"Cao Cao, who was conceited that there was no one to compete in the Central Plains, conquered Tao Qian, tried to annex Xuzhou, and dominated the Central Plains from then on!"

Unexpectedly, a fire in the backyard burned Cao Cao's grand plan in an instant. Lü Fengxian, supported by Zhang Miao, only attacked Puyang, but the counties of Yanzhou rebelled against Cao Cao and installed the new lord Lü Bu. ”

"And Cao Cao, the land of one state only protects the three counties of Juancheng, Dong'e, and Fanxian. After that, he fought with Lu Bu in Puyang and Yanzhou, winning and losing. The worst defeat was the loss of tens of thousands of Qingzhou soldiers in Puyang! ”

"Fortunately, Lu Bu is arrogant and impatient, brave and unscrupulous. After taking Yanzhou, he was even more complacent and did not want to forge ahead. At that time, if he could take Qingzhou in the east, he would be able to sit firmly in the Central Plains and be safe for at least five years. ”

But Lu Fengxian didn't. At this time, Cao Cao gave up the strategy of recovering Yanzhou quickly, followed the advice of his advisers, and went south to conquer the rich lands of Runan and Yingchuan, and put Yuzhou under his jurisdiction. As a result, the soldiers under his command were exempted from the danger of running out of food and were able to continue to fight against Lu Bu. ”

"Cao Lu two families, who wins and who loses, is already doomed here. The results of the future are also known to Wen Jin. Lu Bu was defeated and left Xuzhou, and even Zhang Miao, who supported him, was killed. ”

It was also in this year that Cao Cao began to hone an army that dared to fight because of continuous and uninterrupted battles. In the next two years, Cao Jun reorganized internal training and continued external expeditions. Not only did it occupy Yanzhou and Yuzhou, but also occupied most of the Sili area. ”

So there was the capital of Emperor Han in the west. Moved the capital to Xuchang and controlled the central government politically. And militarily, recruit troops and buy horses in various places, and open up wasteland in tuntian. Half of the more than 300,000 troops it has today are elite Qingzhou soldiers left over from years of conquest. ”

"The 250,000 Cao troops who went to Huainan this time were the main force selected by Cao Cao from his command. And I, Huainan, only 60,000 Yongliang troops can compete with it in the same amount, and the rest of the soldiers and horses are all from the Yellow Turban Yu Party or Yuan Shu's army, and they can't compete with it at all. ”

What's more, Cao Jun this year, he first broke Liu Biao and won Wancheng, the center of the world. Then it was to attack Lu Bu and get the land of Xuzhou. He also defeated Zhang Yang in Hanoi and gained a foothold in Hebei. Win after win, morale is like a rainbow. And I, Huainan, have been cursed by heaven, man-made disasters are continuous, and the hearts of the army and the people are when they are scattered, how can they be enemies? ”

"So, with a patchwork of 180,000 people with low morale, what are the odds of winning against Cao Jun's 250,000 morale strong?"

"Although strategy is also a factor that affects the outcome of a war, it can offset the gap between the quality and morale of soldiers. But there is one more important thing than strategy. That's the heart of the decision-making leader. ”

"Lü Bu was defeated by Cao Cao, not because he failed in strategy. Because Chen Gong's plan is not under Cheng Yu Xunyu. In the Yanzhou Change, the planner Chen Gong got the land of a state, and Cheng Yu, Xun Yu and others conspired to only keep the three counties safe. ”

"Lu Bu did not lose in the quality of the soldiers and the generals. Lu Bu himself has the wolf cavalry brought by Bingzhou, the trapping camp of Gao Shun's training, and the Chen Liujun soldiers supported by Zhang Miao. After taking Puyang and Yanzhou, the Qingzhou soldiers whose wives and children were in the hands of Lu Bu were even more unstable. Cao Cao conquered Xuzhou, and most of the Qingzhou soldiers who stayed behind to guard Yanzhou were attached to Lü Bu. Even after Cao Cao led the army back to Yanzhou, many Qingzhou soldiers defected and surrendered to Lü Bu. ”

"In addition, Lu Bu has the help of eight strong generals, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, and Zang Ba are all good generals in the world, and they are not afraid of Cao Cao."

"Otherwise, how could it be possible to compete with Cao Cao's hundreds of thousands of horses with just Zhang Miao's Chen leaving tens of thousands of soldiers?"

"Lu Bu did not lose in the time, place, and people."

"If he can seize the opportunity to sneak attack Yanzhou, he has already seized the time."

"Yanzhou faces Xuzhou with the danger of Mount Tai as a barrier, and he also occupies a geographical advantage."

Cao Cao's reign was very short, and he hurriedly sent troops to Xuzhou because his father was killed. The people of Yanzhou had never received Cao Cao's favor, so they had no aversion to Lü Bu's rule. Therefore, Lu Bu did not lose to the people. ”

"Since the time and place are favorable. Neither strategy nor strength has ever been lost, so why did Lu Bu still lose? ”

"The reason is in the heart! It lies in the heart of the Lord! This heart is not strong, no matter how strong the power is, no matter how dominant the strength is, it is useless. ”

"Cao Cao's heart, although sometimes restless and frivolous, is always only 'sometimes', not 'always'."

After Cao Cao became the advocate of the princes of the Eighteenth Road to discuss Dong, his heart was arrogant. The battle of Xingyang was a crushing defeat because of light efforts. ”

But Cao Cao was able to quickly reflect on himself and be patient. His hometown and the place where the army was raised were all in Chen Liu, and Chen Liu's guard Zhang Miao had always been wary of him. But because Cao Cao had the feat of assassinating Dong Zhuo, Zhang Miao, who flaunted Hanchen, had always allowed Cao Cao to recruit troops in his own territory. ”

"Until Qingzhou's million yellow turbans invaded Yanzhou. Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou, did not listen to the persuasion of Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei, and went out to fight without authorization, resulting in a big defeat, and he himself was killed in battle. Cao Cao used the excuse of resisting the Yellow Turban Army at this time and went to Dongjun under Liu Dai to lead the Dongjun Taishou. ”

Then the imperial court asked Cao Cao and Bao Xin to defeat the Yellow Turban Army. The final outcome was that Bao Xin died in battle, and Cao Cao first received Bao Xin's army, and then received the surrender of the million Yellow Turban Army. At this time, Cao Cao had effectively controlled most of Yanzhou, and only Zhang Miao's Chenliu County remained independent. However, Zhang Miao could only recognize the object of his former asylum as the lord of Yanzhou in this case. ”

"This is the process of Cao Cao's rise to power, and it is also the process of Cao Cao's inner maturity."

"But Wen Jin, have you ever experienced ups and downs like Cao Cao? Can you be patient and ready to go, so that you can lie down and taste the courage? ”
