Chapter Twenty-Four: Accepting Gao Shun (Asking for Votes)

Hearing that Cao Cao was going to push Lu Bu and Gao Shun out and behead them, Li Xian hurriedly said: "General, Gao Shun is a loyal and brave man, and he begs the general to save Gao Shun from death." ”

Cao Cao was a little puzzled: "Why did you persuade me to kill Lu Bu, but let me let Gao Shun go?" ”

"Lu Bu repeatedly betrayed his lord and was disloyal and unjust, but General Gao Shun was loyal and brave and not afraid of death, it is really rare to be such a loyal and righteous person."

Although Li Cai was killed in battle when he captured the camp, a person like Gao Shun who served the lord faithfully, as long as he was subdued, he could use it for himself.

Gao Shun shouted loudly: "Thief, don't beg for Gao Shun to live, Gao Shun only wants to die." ”

Lu Bu said to Gao Shun: "General Gao, you plead with General Cao for me, beg them to let you and me go." ”

Gao Shun was furious when he heard this: "General, why are you so afraid of death, the soldiers are defeated by others, only death, I can't imagine that the general will kneel down and beg others." ”

Cao Cao said to Li Xie: "Gao Shun is bent on death, if he doesn't kill, aren't you afraid that he will rebel in the future?" ”

Li Xian knelt down on one knee to Cao Cao and said: "General, Xian is willing to guarantee with his life, Gao Shun will not rebel." ”

Gao Shun closed his eyes on the side and wept bitterly.

He was not moved by Li Xie's intercession for him, but sad because he was disappointed in Lu Bu.

Cao Cao saw that Li Xian was begging for each other, and this time it was Li Xian who made a great contribution, and he didn't want to brush his request.

And Gao Shun was just a general, and he didn't pose much threat to himself, so he agreed to his request.

When Lu Bu was pushed out, he was still shouting: "The general spares me, the general spares me." ”

At this time, it was already dawn, Cao Cao ordered people to clean up the corpses in the city, and he took Cao Ren's generals to Chenliu to attack Zhang Miao.

Li Xian untied Gao Shun's body and said: "The general's loyalty is admired by Li Xian, if the general is unwilling to follow Li Xian, he can go home from now on." ”

Li Xian expects that Gao Shun will not leave, like this person who upholds loyalty, you are kind to him, and he will not live up to you.

Gao Shun saw that Li Xian treated him so sincerely, and did not remember the previous battle of refusing to surrender, but guaranteed with his life that he would not rebel.

People who think so highly of themselves, compared with Lu Bu, it is really a world of difference. If you don't follow him, who else can you follow.

He knelt down on one knee and saluted Li Xian and said: "Thank you General Li for the grace of his life, since the general is so high-minded, by the way, he will overcome obstacles for the general and serve the horse." ”

Li Xian hurriedly helped Gao Shun up: "Okay, I don't know what the general's words are?" ”

He didn't know what Gao Shun's words were, and there was no record in the history books.

Gao Shun replied: "Shun the word Peping, and the state of Shangdang County." ”

"Peping, okay, let's go back to Shanyang, you also need to take care of your injuries."

"General, there is a request, and I hope the general will grant it."

Li Xian was a little surprised, Gao Shun had just descended, what would he want. It won't be to ask for an official, I don't have that power.

"Say it."

"Shun asked the general to bury the campers who died in the camp led by Shun together, so that their bodies would not be exposed. They die because they are obedient, and they live alone because they are obedient, and they fail them. Gao Shun burst into tears as he spoke, full of sadness.

Li Xian was deeply moved after hearing this, he couldn't imagine that Gao Shun was asking for this.

"Even if you don't say it, I will do it, they are all brave and loyal men, I only hope that if they have an afterlife, they will not suffer from this war again."

"General......" Gao Shun bowed to Li obliquely again.

Li Xian took Gao Shun to personally let the more than 700 people trapped in the camp be buried in a cave, and Gao Shun personally carved a wooden tablet and wrote: Trapped camp warriors.

Li Xian buried all the soldiers who died in battle on his side.

Of the two hundred warriors brought from Shanyang, there were only about fifty left, and Li Xian took them back to Shanyang.

Cao Cao attacked Chen Liuzhang Miao, and did not take Li Xian with him, but asked him to go back to Shanyang County.

Because Yanzhou is still in chaos, Shanyang also needs stability.

Zhang Miao and Cao Cao knew each other when they were in Luoyang, and their relationship has always been good. Cao Cao raised troops and Zhang Miao helped a lot, not only letting him recruit troops in Chenliu, but also letting Wei Zi lead troops to follow him.

When Yuan Shao asked Cao Cao to kill Zhang Miao, Cao Cao rejected Yuan Shao. Therefore, the relationship between Cao Cao and Zhang Miao is also extraordinary.

But this person with an extraordinary relationship actually betrayed himself, which Cao Cao could not tolerate.

He led his troops to attack Chenliu urgently, Zhang Miao and Zhang Chao in the city held on to the city, and Cao Cao was difficult to break through for a while.

During the attack on Chenliu, Cao Cao also sent Xiahoudun with 5,000 soldiers and horses to pacify the rebellious counties.

Lu Bu and Chen Gong have been beheaded, and Zhang Miao has been besieged by Cao Cao, and it is difficult to protect himself.

The counties that responded to the betrayal before saw Xiahoudun leading the army coming, and either took the initiative to surrender, or the county magistrate was beheaded by the county officials and local wealthy clans, and dedicated their heads to Xiahoudun.

According to Cao Cao's instructions, Xiahoudun only beheaded those county magistrates, and the rest of the people were not guilty.

In December, Chen Liu was finally breached.

After Cao Cao entered the city, he found that Zhang Miao and Zhang Chao had killed themselves.

Although Zhang Miao and Zhang Chao died, Cao Cao could not relieve his hatred, and the most important thing was to warn others that he killed all the Zhang Miao family.

This year, there was a great drought in Sanfu, and there was no rain from April to July, and there was a locust plague.

At that time, the grain was sold for 500,000 yuan, and the beans and wheat were sold for 200,000 yuan.

Yanzhou has been tuntian for more than a year, although the harvest is not very good, but it can finally be fed, and no one starves to death.

Back in Juancheng, Cao Cao talked about meritorious deeds.

This time, Chen Gong and Zhang Miao welcomed Lu Bu's rebellion, and Li Xieping contributed the most.

Cao Cao pondered, Li Xian expected everything first, and recruited troops from Danyang to know that the soldiers wanted to rebel.

When he went to Langyu to pick up his father, he knew that Tao Qian wanted to rob and kill, and asked Cao Ren to lead the army to pick him up, but he was careless at the time.

Now he knew that Chen Gong Zhang Miao wanted to betray Lu Bu, and he had already prepared to prevent Yanzhou from falling into the hands of Lu Bu.

At the same time, he has the strategy of governing the people, the skill of tuntian, the ability to train to break the camp, and the courage to charge first.

This man is terrible.

But fortunately, he is his own son-in-law, and he is also very good to Cao Ang.

If this person is his enemy, he is really a great enemy.

Cao Cao Siding said that although Li Xian was his son-in-law, he wanted to use Li Xian and guard against Li Xian.

Li Xian was promoted from lieutenant to general by virtue of his efforts to quell the chaos, but he did not lead troops in peacetime, and could only lead troops in wartime.

Although this general seems to have a very low position, it was only the first year of Xingping at that time, and there were not many generals.

Later, there were many battles between the princes from all walks of life, and there were many military exploits, and the princes and bigwigs from all walks of life had no choice, so they would make up the names of many miscellaneous generals to reward them.

Cao Cao also transferred Li Xian to Jiyin Taishou, he really didn't worry that Li Xian would lead a county alone, otherwise he would be able to summon two hundred warriors casually by befriending local wealthy clans like in Shanyang County.

If he had stayed a little longer, it would have been possible to summon 220,000 people.

transferred him to Jiyin and lived in Juancheng, under Cao Cao's nose, he couldn't make any noise.

Gao Shun was not seriously injured before, and it was almost good after more than ten days, he is now Li Xian's subordinate, and he can be regarded as a general.

After Zhang Liao surrendered, Cao Cao appointed him as a lieutenant, followed Cao Cao to attack Zhang Miao, and was promoted to Zhonglang General.

Xiahou Yuan was the Taishou of Shanyang, and Xiahou Yuan moved to Chen Liutaishou.

Because Dongjun Taishou wanted to give up to Zang Hong, Zang Hong was originally the assassin of Qingzhou, but Yuan Shao saw that Zang Hong was too popular in Qingzhou, so he pushed him to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao also had a good relationship with Yuan Shao at this time, and Yuan Shao's strength was stronger than Cao Cao's, so it was difficult to refuse, so he could only let Zang Hong be the Taishou of Dongjun.

When Cao Cao besieged Chen Liu, Zang Hong wanted to lead troops to rescue him, but Yuan Shao refused. Although Zang Hong is the assassin of Qingzhou, the soldiers and horses are in the hands of Yuan Tan, and he only has the right to govern the people.

Also in December of the first year of Xingping, Tao Qian died of illness, and Liu Bei led Xuzhou on his behalf. Previously, he had been listed by Tao Qian as the assassin of Yuzhou, and now after he got Xuzhou, he led Xuzhou pastoral.

The first month of the second year of Xingping.

Li Xian had already returned to Juancheng with Cao Min and Gao Shun, and now he only had fifty palace guards in addition to Gao Shun.

Therefore, he is just a name, and Taishou is only a false position.

After all, Juancheng is also the state seat of Yanzhou, and Cao Cao is in Juancheng.

In addition to teaching the people to cultivate farmers and arrest traitors and thieves, Li Xian did not have a single soldier.

One night in February, a fire broke out at his residence, and he was charred and unrecognizable.

Cao Cao was very sad, wept and wept, saying that the opera Zhicai fought with him, repeatedly offered strange schemes, and knew his intentions. Now that Xi Zhicai is gone, he doesn't even have a person who can speak from his heart.

He buried Xi Zhicai, and he sighed that he was jealous of the talent for a few days, and he did not prolong his years.

Li Xian is also very sad, he and Xi Zhicai are also friends, although they don't spend much time together, they also respect each other very much.

Cao Ang has also grown up a lot, and he will turn twenty next year, which is the year of the weak crown. He was also smart and studious, and often came to Li Xian for advice.

Li Xie's wife, Cao Min, is also already happy.
