Chapter 41: You sing and I appear, this is the troubled times!
The next morning, when Cao Cao and Xun Yu came to see Guo Jia, they just opened the door and a strong smell of wine came to their faces.
Cao Cao and Xun Yu suddenly took several steps back.
Oh my God, these guys, they're drunk and disheveled.
If it weren't for knowing that Guo Jia was not as good as Long Yang, they would even have a reverie.
Guo Jia was woken up with a reluctant face, and Cao Cao and Xun Yu carried Guo Jia to the council hall on the left and right.
It turned out that Yuan Shu had withdrawn his troops.
In April of the third year of the first peace, Sun Jian, the general of the captivity, was ambushed by Huang Zu, and died with a sharp arrow through his heart, and the world was shocked.
Sun Jian, who attacked Jingzhou, died in battle, which not only demoralized Yuan Shu's army, but also put him in a state of being attacked from both sides.
Cao Cao said that Liu Biao originally sent Huang Zu to face Sun Jian between Fancheng and Deng County, but was defeated by Sun Jian. So Sun Jian took advantage of the victory to pursue, crossed the Han River, and surrounded Xiangyang. Liu Biao closed his door without a fight, and sent Huang Zu out of the city at night to mobilize soldiers. Huang Zu returned with his troops, and Sun Jianfu fought with him. Huang Zu was defeated and fled to the Da Xian Mountains, where Sun Jian pursued. Huang Zubu will launch a hidden arrow from the bamboo forest, and Sun Jian is pierced through the heart by a sharp arrow and dies on the spot.
A generation of generals, Jiangdong Tiger Sun Wentai, fell, leaving the stage of the world competition at the end of the Han Dynasty.
Cao Cao was also emotional, although he and Sun Jian are now in a hostile relationship, it does not affect his admiration for Sun Jian.
In the battle against Dong that year, only he and himself were sincere in seeking Dong and devoted themselves to Han.
The two have also introduced each other as confidants. It's a pity that now, yin and yang are separated.
Cao Cao sacrificed to Sun Jianyao, personally wrote a memorial text, sent it to Sun Ce, who was under Yuan Shu's tent, and bowed to the south three times, as did Guo Jia and Xun Yu.
"Brother Wentai, go all the way. Back then, the princes of the Eighteenth Road begged for Dong, only you and I were really thieves for the Han Dynasty, and the rest of the princes were not for fame and profit, intending to usurp the Han. Cao, I have always admired you, why are you jealous of talents! You and I are separated by yin and yang! ”
Xun Yu admires Sun Jian's heart to the Han, while Guo Jia is guilty.
"Brave and resolute, lonely and slight, leading the temperature and killing Zhuo, the mountains and tombs, there is loyalty and strength. General Sun, Feng Xiao, once again made amends. ”
Although Cao Cao and Xun Yu were surprised, they didn't ask Guo Jia much why he claimed to make amends.
After Sun Jian's death in battle, his nephew Sun Ben led the rest of Sun Jian's remnants to support the coffin, and then attached to Yuan Shu, Sun Jian's eldest son Sun Ce also took refuge in Yuan Shu and vowed to avenge his father.
In the first battle of Xiangyang, Huang Zu became famous and became the limelight of a generation of famous generals.
Just kidding, that's the head of the Koto Tigers.
Subsequently, Sun Jian's body was retrieved by Huan Jie, a native of Linxiang, Changsha, who risked his life to see Liu Biao.
Huan Jie's early years as a county guard of the history of the Gongcao. Taishou Sun Jian recommended him as filial piety, and was later appointed as Shang Shulang by the imperial court. Huan Jie returned to his hometown for the funeral due to the death of his father, just in time for Sun Jian to die in battle when he attacked Liu Biao. Huan Jie risked his life to visit Liu Biao and asked for Sun Jian's funeral. Liu Biao was moved by his righteousness, and on the grounds that "the righteous cannot be bullied", he handed over Sun Jian's body and coffin to Huanjie and let him take it away.
Sun Ce led the entire Sun clan to kneel down and asked him to come out of the ranks. After Huanjie refused, he returned to Changsha County and continued to serve under Zhang Xian, the Taishou of Changsha.
For a while, the name of the righteous man of Huan was praised all over the world.
Speaking of Zhang Xian, he is actually a celebrity through the ages.
You must all know his words when it comes to his table, Zhang Xian's words are Zhongjing.
That's right, it's that medical saint Zhang Zhongjing.
After Yuan Shu, Liu Biao, Cao Cao, and Tao Qian quit their troops, the whole world stopped fighting, and all the princes fell into a rhythm of recuperation.
With the support of Xun Yu, Guo Jia and others, the Tuntian Order of Zao Yi and Han Hao was implemented on a large scale.
Under Xun Yu's governance, the life of the people of Yanzhou gradually improved. Not to mention that everyone is full, at least in Yanzhou today, no one will starve to death.
And Guo Jia was in the company of blacksmiths all day long, even if Guo Jia was played out for not abiding by etiquette and being with craftsmen, Cao Cao laughed it off and ignored it.
And Cao Cao was concentrating on dealing with the Yanzhou scholars.
In Cao Cao's words, it is to be shameless.
Most of them fled because of the invasion of the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou. sold his property at a low price, and Cao Cao bought most of the fields, liquor stores and other properties at that time.
They later saw that the Qingzhou Yellow Turban had been pacified, but Tao Qian and Yuan Shu attacked Yanzhou at the same time, and felt how wise their decision was. Now seeing that Cao Cao's position in Yanzhou has gradually stabilized, Yanzhou has also become stronger, so he has returned.
After coming back, he first wanted to return the cheap properties of the Yanzhou Shi clan that Cao Cao had bought, and he bought them back at the price at which Cao Cao bought them.
Just kidding, Cao Cao has already planted grain in those fields, and you want to buy it back at the original price?
And who have you ever seen do that? If Cao Cao were ordinary people, it is estimated that these Yanzhou scholars would be robbed directly. In their opinion, Cao Cao, who was born as a eunuch, bought back at the original price and gave him face.
Moreover, the Yanzhou scholars also wanted to insert their young sons and nephews into the Yanzhou bureaucracy and even the army.
"Look for death!"
After Cao Cao heard it at that time, he trembled with anger and smashed the table directly.
And among them, the Wang family is the leader.
Speaking of this Wang family, he also has some connections with Cao Cao.
Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang was their last patriarch, although Wang Kuang's death caused them to lose a lot of interests in Hanoi County, but as a scholar clan rooted in Yanzhou for hundreds of years, the heritage is profound and does not have much influence.
There is also Yanzhou celebrity Bian Rang, Cao Cao has repeatedly conscripted him, he has refused many times, and at the same time insulted Cao Cao as a eunuch, unworthy of being the lord of his Bian Rang. Cao Cao endured it, and he didn't bother with him to a great extent.
Bian Rang saw that Cao Cao had endured many times, and thought that Cao Cao was afraid of his talent, so he relied on his talent and did not take Cao Cao in his eyes, and publicly despised and belittled Cao Cao many times.
Last time, Bian Rang even accused Cao Cao on the street at the gate of the state pastor's mansion, saying that if he still had a trace of shame, he should learn from the ancient Yao Shun and give up the position of Yanzhou pastor to Wang Zhao, the patriarch of the Wang clan.
Cao Cao's face was gloomy at that time, but he still endured it and ignored him.
But then Wang Zhao used Wang's influence to fan the flames, and there was a tendency for Cao Cao to die to the end without letting Xian go, which ignited Cao Cao's anger again, and Cao Cao deliberately made things difficult for Wang's industry.
Subsequently, in retaliation against Cao Cao, the Wang family bought Yanzhou grain on a large scale, intending to make the price of grain rise sharply and undermine Cao Cao's rule.
Xun Yu used his identity as Xun to persuade Wang Zhao and Bian Rang many times not to gain an inch, so that they could be more restrained, but they were scolded as an assistant and abused, and insulted his father Xun Sui.
has insulted the ancestors, and a good temper like Xun Yu can't bear it, so he decided not to adjust the contradictions between the two parties. And Zhang Miao was originally Cao Cao's friend, and at the same time, as the patriarch of the Zhang clan, the second largest scholar clan in Yanzhou, understood his position, not only did not make trouble for Cao Cao, but donated a lot of money and food in the current recuperation stage, and took over Xun Yu to adjust the contradictions between the two parties.
Finally, Cao Cao couldn't bear it anymore.
