The news that Cao Jun had broken through the inner city of Xiapi City quickly spread all over the world under the deliberate intention of Cao Jun. The death of Xiapicheng Chengpo and Tao Qian and his two sons also represents the complete change of Xuzhou's surname to Cao, as well as the bankruptcy of some people's plans, and the son of heaven Liu Xie's jealousy of Cao Cao is also deeper, but he knows that he can't do it yet, and he still needs to continue to endure it, just like dealing with Dong Zhuo.

Cao Jun rejoiced in Xiapi City for a day, Cao Cao decided to temporarily stop the celebration banquet under the advice of Mi Zhu, and the soldiers of Cao Jun were responsible for helping Mi Zhu clean up the ruins and debris in the city after three days of rest, mobilizing the people to clean up the streets, and announced that the people of the city, those who participated in the cleaning of the streets, were exempted from paying taxes for three years.

Of course, it's not that Cao Cao is arrogant, it's purely that Xiapi City is broken like this, how many taxes can be paid all year round, don't Cao Cao spend money to put it upside down, it's not bad, still thinking about paying taxes? It is better to sell personal favors to the people, so that they will be grateful, and gradually forget that it was Cao Jun who broke the embankment and released water to flood Xiapi City. And Cao Cao carefully told the people in the city that this was Guo Jia's idea, and his intention was naturally to help Guo Jia clear his name.

Guo Jia had a bad reputation for Cao Cao before breaking the embankment and releasing water, and since Cao Cao was powerless to stop the fermentation of the matter, it was better to think about helping Guo Jia clear his name. In his heart, Guo Jia is the pillar of the court in the future, and will serve as one of the three official positions of General Wei, Hussar General or Che Cavalry General, if Guo Jia is ruined because of this incident, I am afraid that it will be used as an excuse to disagree with Guo Jia's appointment in the future.

However, it is unknown whether Guo has the intention of becoming a big official.

Then, the Taishou of Xiapi County (Xiapi State was abolished as a county by Cao Cao) Mi Zhu quickly used the ability of his Mijia caravan to buy a large amount of food, clothing, and bedding from other places, all of which were his own money, and did not ask Cao Cao for a penny, and quickly settled the people of Xiapi County. Mi Zhu used his private property to buy daily necessities and food for the people of Xiapi also spread throughout the city under the propaganda of Mingjingtang, and the people of Xiapi respectfully called Mi Zhu Mi Gong, and in order to repay their kindness to Lord Taishou, the people also went to the Mi family's shops to buy things.

However, the Mi family shop is no longer run by Mi Zhu, after all, Mi Zhu is a county guard, two thousand stone officials, Mi Zhu's younger brother Mi Fang is under Guo Jia, and they are a little easy to gossip about when they personally participate in the operation of the Mi family's business in Xuzhou. Therefore, Mi Zhu found his brother Mi Ping to lead the operation of the Mi family's industry. This person is honest and honest, and his business skills are good, and he has won the trust of Mi Zhu. Besides, Mi Zhu and Mi Fang are now deeply trusted by Cao Cao, and one is serving under Guo Jia Guo Saijiu, who is above 10,000 people under Cao Jun, it can be said that both of them are in full swing, they are the foundation and hope of the Mi family, and no one will be stupid enough to betray them and secretly control the Mi family.

Then, Cao Cao led the army back to the court, ordered Xiahou Yuan's leopard army to return to Liang County to station, Li Dian also led the Xuanwu army back to Taishan County to station, and Cao Hong's war bear army returned to Dongjun to station. In addition, Cao Cao ordered the Tianfeng Army to be changed from stationed in Pei County to Xiapi County.

A month later, Yuan Shaoquan was based in Qingzhou and merged with the state!

Then, Cao Cao sent Le Jin to lead the expansion of the army to 12,000 Long Xiang Army, and marched into Sili, and at the same time sent Xu Huang, who was familiar with the Xiliang Army, as a deputy general to assist Le Jin, and at the same time marched into Si Li, as well as Xiahoudun's Qingzhou Army. Then, Cao Cao asked Liu Xie, the son of heaven, to send troops to the aid of Ma Teng and Han Sui of Xiliang to jointly attack the Xiliang army that occupied Sili, and named Ma Teng as the general of Zhenxi and Han Sui as the general of Pingxi.

You must know that the general of the four towns will go up again, but he will be the general of the four marches, and Ma Teng has been promoted by a big level! Han Sui is too, he was originally a miscellaneous general like General Andy, but now the old hen has become a phoenix! Although the two have always rebelled against the imperial court, they now also know that there is no future for continuing to be rebels, thinking that it is better to nominally obey the imperial edict, call themselves Hanchen, and then be a soil emperor in Xiliang, so they cherish this opportunity to be promoted, and naturally accept the edict happily.

In April of the second year of Jian'an, Ma Teng and Han Sui led the coalition army and Qiang army composed of various warlords in Liangzhou with a total of 60,000, and led the army to attack Sili, plus Xiahoudun's Qingzhou army and Lejin's Longxiang army also had 37,000 people, nearly 100,000 troops, to attack Guo Yan!

Guo Yan led the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to attack the Flying Bear Army several times, but Guo Yan was severely injured by Ma Teng's son Ma Chao, and the army under his command was also repelled by Lejin's Longxiang Army and the cavalry of the Liangzhou warlords. The Cao army and the Liangzhou warlord each sent all the cavalry under their command to chase and kill, but Guo Yan occupied the division for many years, took advantage of the terrain, shook off the pursuers, and finally led 3,000 flying bear troops and 8,000 Xiliang iron cavalry to flee to Hanzhong.

Zhang Lu coveted this fierce general who had a life-and-death enmity with his mortal enemy Liu Zhang's number one general, Zhang Ren, and the tens of thousands of cavalry troops under his command, and naturally accepted his surrender. After recuperating for a month, Guo Yan took the initiative to request an attack, broke the army of Deng Xian and Wu Yi under Liu Zhang, and killed 4,000 soldiers of the Yizhou Army, while his own side only lost less than 500 cavalry.

Cao Cao, who captured Sili, also completely occupied the four states of the Central Plains (Sili, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, Xuzhou), and Cao Cao, who was in the Central Plains, also completely opened up the position, and Cao's machine also began to run at high speed. The elite of the Cao army, such as the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, the Relief Army, and the Long Xiang Army, also went to the south bank of the Yellow River and stationed in Baima.

Yuan Shao also rectified the newly arrived warhorses and Qingerzhou, and quickly distributed the war horses purchased from the Bingzhou and the war horses captured from the Southern Xiongnu to the newly recruited cavalry, and the elites of the Yuan army, such as the Xiandeng Battalion and the Euphorbia, also came to the north bank of the Yellow River. Jizhou, a large output state, also purchased a large amount of grain and grass under Xu You's operation, and the grain and grass transported from Jizhou to the north bank of the Yellow River alone is enough to be millions of stones!

For a time, the smell of gunpowder on both sides of the Yellow River was everywhere, and the war was about to break out! The princes from all over the country also sent spies one after another, paying attention to the situation of Cao and Yuan.
