"Goo, goo." I don't know how many miles of flying pigeons exhausted landed on the windowsill, habitually calling the master, looking forward to the food in the master's hands, a pair of big hands stretched out, gently untied the thin line on the pigeon's legs, took off a small bamboo tube, and then sprinkled a handful of rapeseed in front of the pigeon.

While the carrier pigeon was enjoying the food, the small bamboo pipe was immediately sent to a room in the official hall of Yanzhou East County, and to the hands of a middle-aged man with a short figure before the collapse of the room. ”

"Lord, what's going on?" Guo Jia, who was on the sickbed, opened his eyes, coughed and stroked his chest and asked, "Is it news from Chang'an?" Or news from Luoyang? ”

"Fengxiao, be careful, it's news from Luoyang." Cao Cao personally helped Guo Jia to sit up, and then handed the note to Guo Jia to read, Cao Cao's strategists Cheng Yu, Mao Jue and Xi Zhicai and others also came over, together to take a closer look at the news from Luoyang, and Kang Peng, Cao Cao also paid great attention to finding talents, relying on a good reputation in the scholars, Cao Cao in just one year has accepted Liu Hao, full of favor, Mao Jue, Xi Zhicai and Lu Qian and other talented Shilin celebrities, as well as Che Zhou, Hao Zhao, Wang Ping, Zhu Ling and Lu Zhao and other military generals, can be described as the peak of talent, Especially in the strategist area, Cao Cao's army almost pressed Dong Zhuojun, not to mention much.

After reading the report on Dong Zhuojun's movements in Luoyang, everyone was shocked, and Xi Zhicai first analyzed: "Dong thief ascended to the throne and became king, and his intention is twofold, the first is to prepare for the next step of usurping and becoming emperor, and the second is to further gain power, occupy the moral upper hand, and justifiably crusade against the princes of the world with the king's division, eliminate the forces that can threaten him in various places, and unify the world." ”

"Dong Thief's meticulous work is terrible." Cheng Yu was shocked and said: "What a secret is the secret contact between our army and Lord Cai and Lord Fu, Dong Thief was able to do it well and detain the two adults in advance, so that our military secretary's plan to welcome the emperor and move the capital failed." ”

The strategists gossiped, or lamented the failure of the plan, or praised Dong Zhuojun's spy power, only Cao Cao and Guo Jia did not say a word, Cao Cao kept walking back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, nervously thinking about contingencies, and turned around for more than ten circles, Cao Cao suddenly stopped, turned back and asked Guo Jia: "Fengxiao, according to your opinion, what should our army do next?" ”

Guo Jia had been pondering just now, and immediately replied when he heard the words: "Lord, the plan to secretly welcome the emperor cannot be canceled, Dong thief is treacherous, once he is king, there is a good chance that he will use the conditions of supporting Yuan Shao as the king to provoke Yuan Shao to go to war with our army, and Yuan Shao is a person who is oblivious and forgetful, and he will definitely agree, Dong thief can free up his hands to occupy Jiangnan and completely encircle the Central Plains, and our army can only deprive Dong Thief of the throne in the name of the Son of Heaven by welcoming Emperor Xian to Dongjun, and induce Yuan Shao to stand on the opposite side of Dong Thief, and the princes will join forces to hope to defeat Dong Thief." ”

"Alas, Yuan Shao ......." Cao Cao sighed in the face of the north, shook his head, he sent envoys to unite Yuan Shao many times, but unfortunately Yuan Shao refused, and Cao Cao could only sigh helplessly. Now only Yuan Shao can influence the battle situation of Dong Zhuojun, if Yuan Shaojun and Dong Zhuojun are friendly, Dong Zhuojun can concentrate on completing the strategic goal of outflanking the Central Plains, if Yuan Shaojun and Dong Zhuojun are at war, they can directly threaten Dong Zhuojun's strategic rear from Baimahuguan and other places, at that time, Yuan Shao's army out of Baimahuguan, Cao Cao and Liu Bei's army entered Luoyang, Sun Quan's army went up the Yangtze River to take Yizhou, Dong Zhuojun was attacked on three sides, no matter how strong the strength was, there was no chance of winning, but now Yuan Shao's attitude is ambiguous, and the third alliance against Dong can not be established, I could only watch Dong Zhuojun get stronger and stronger, swallowing and encroaching on the territory of the princes, and destroying them one by one.

After pondering for a long time, Cao Cao suddenly asked Guo Jiadao again: "Fengxiao, if our army raids Luoyang now, how sure are we that we will rob Emperor Xian?" ”

"100% sure!" Guo Jia replied categorically.

Cao Cao's army was dumbfounded, Cao Cao was even more surprised, and hurriedly asked: "Dong Thief's combat strength is far superior to our army, why did Feng Xiao say that our army is fully sure to usher in the emperor?" What's more, Cai Fu and the others were arrested, and the contact between our army and Emperor Xian was cut off, and Emperor Xian's intention to move the capital was not known to our army. ”

"The strength of the Dong thief army is indeed far superior to our army." Guo Jia coughed for a while, and replied slowly: "But Dong Thief's current strategic focus is in the south, and with Dong Thief's character of great joy, he must require the army to completely pacify Jingzhou before the twelfth day of the first month of the fifth year of Chuping becomes king, and he will be overjoyed by the ceremony, so that Dong Thief's manpower and material resources will all support the Jingzhou war, and the surveillance of Luoyang will naturally be relaxed; Dong thief is scheduled to take the throne in Chang'an a month later, that is to say, Dong thief wants to leave Luoyang and return to Chang'an, Luoyang has become a blank space in military strength, there is almost no defense and sentinels, and the most elite tiger and leopard rider of our army only needs to advance quickly by night and day, and will be able to hide from Dong Thief's ears and eyes, sneak into the pass, usher in the emperor, and grasp the strategic initiative. ”

"Will Emperor Xian agree to go with us?" Cao Cao asked again.

"Lord, you underestimate our son of heaven too much." Guo Jia, who was already skinny and skinny, coughed and smiled: "Does the lord think that Emperor Xian really doesn't know about the contact between Fu Cai and our army?" Fu Cai and the others are both great Confucians in the world, can they not know that kidnapping the Son of Heaven is a heinous crime of raiding the family and destroying the door? Jia dared to conclude that the mastermind behind Fu Cai and the others was Emperor Xian! Dong thief coerced Emperor Xian to crown him as king, Emperor Xian was forced to agree, he really hated Dong Thief in his heart, Jia dared to expect another handful, now Emperor Xian must have written an edict calling on the world to rise up to crusade against Dong thief, handed over to the ministers loyal to the Han family, and conveyed it to the princes everywhere, and our army has always been with Dong Thief, this edict will be delivered to the lord in a few days, and the lord is still worried that Emperor Xian will not come to Dongjun with our army? ”

Cao Cao's trust in Guo Jia is no less than Kang Peng's trust in Li Ru and Jia Xu, and Liu Bei's feelings for Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, although Guo Jia is completely analytical and guessing, Cao Cao immediately ordered without hesitation: "Xu Zhen, Cao Ren, and Cao Chun listen to orders." The three generals came out of the crowd and hugged their fists together: "The last general will be." ”

Cao Cao ordered: "Order the three of you to lead the tiger and leopard to ride 3,000 each, Xu Yang to take the Guandu Road, Cao Ren to take the Changshe Road, Cao Chun to take the Zhongmu Road, night and day ambush, carefully avoid the enemy outpost, enter Luoyang in three ways, and rush to the emperor first, and I will lead the army to support later!" The suspicious Cao Cao was still afraid of Dong Zhuojun's strong strength, and he didn't dare to gather the precious tiger and leopard horses together to give Dong Zhuojun a pot to take off, and if they were divided into three roads, they could cover each other, and even if they were unfortunate enough to be ambushed, they could also keep most of Cao Cao's trump cards. Of course, afterwards, Cao Cao also regretted his careful order so much that his intestines were green, which is not mentioned for the time being.

Cao Cao's order, Cao Cao's army stationed in Dongjun naturally had a big move, and Dong Zhuojun's spies in ambush in Dongjun City inevitably jumped up and down to inquire about intelligence, but when the spies worked hard to find out that Cao Cao's army was using the most elite tiger and leopard cavalry, a team of Cao Cao's personal soldiers rushed into the house of the Dark Moon Group, grabbed the carrier pigeon that had been tied to the thin bamboo pipe, replaced it with a new thin bamboo pipe, and then released the blue sky, and the three members of the Dark Moon Group who were caught never had a chance to return to Chang'an. In Cao Cao's army, which was short of food, their corpses were not wasted......

A few days later, Kang Peng, who was in Luoyang, received a report from the Dark Moon Group of Dongjun that a hunger riot had occurred in the Le'an area of Qingzhou and was spreading, and Cao Cao's army was forced to return to Qingzhou to suppress the riot, and the main force of the army withdrew eastward. As Guo Jia expected, Kang Penghaha, who was rushed by a series of victories, gloated over the situation of Cao Cao's army, and focused his main energy on the upcoming carry ceremony, ignoring Cao Cao's movements for the time being.

On December 14 of the fourth year of Chuping, after living in Luoyang for more than ten days, Kang Peng decided to return to Chang'an to prepare for the throne as king, before leaving, Kang Peng gave a death order to Lu Su and Pang Tong, who were in charge of the Jingzhou war, requiring them to completely pacify the remnants of the four counties in Jingzhou before the first day of the first month of the fifth year of Chuping, and then send the good news to their own carrying ceremony on the twelfth day of the first month, so as to be happy and happy.

After Kang Peng wrote down the order, Lu Bu, Pang De and others had already commanded the soldiers to clean up the camp, respectfully asked Kang Peng to set off, Kang Peng smiled and boarded the big chariot pulled by eight yellow horses under the support of Jia Xu and Dong Chong, the three armies were about to set off, but the imperial court Taifu Ma Ridan hurried over, stopped Kang Peng's car, bowed down and said: "Taishi, please stay, the old man still has one thing to ask for." ”

Kang Peng still has some respect for Ma Ridan, this time, Kang Peng wanted to invite Ma Ridan to go with him, but Kang Peng took care of this old stubborn and difficult to agree, and he didn't go to vain. Kang Peng got out of the car and personally helped Ma Ridan up, and said warmly: "Master Taifu has something to explain, please come on." ”

Before Ma Ridan could speak, his old face turned red first, and he whispered under Kang Peng's repeated urging: "Taishi, the granary in Luoyang has been exhausted, and the people's food for the winter has not yet been settled. ”

Hearing this, Kang Peng's ugly face immediately pulled down, Dong Zhuojun's money and grain allocated to Luoyang a year is enough to raise half of Luoyang City, but unfortunately most of it was taken by Emperor Han Xian to spend time and wine, build palaces, and deceive Kang Peng by indulging in wine.

Ma Ridan saw that Kang Peng's face was not good, and knew that Kang Peng didn't want to give it, so he turned his heart sideways, pounced on Kang Peng, knelt down, kowtowed and cried: "Taishi, the people's livelihood in Luoyang is withering day by day, it is all caused by the incompetence of the old and decrepit auxiliary government, I beg the Taishi to condemn the old decay, but the people are innocent, please ask the Taishi to save the people of Luoyang for the sake of the Han Dynasty." ”

Kang Peng pondered for a moment with a fat face, and finally couldn't bear to see this eighty-year-old man crying in front of him, sighed, and helped Ma Ridan up again: "Okay, for the sake of Taifu's face, Gu will allocate another batch of grain to Luoyang, but Taifu must promise Gu that as soon as this batch of grain arrives, you will immediately distribute it to the people, and you can't put it in the warehouse first." "Kang Peng understands the methods of the officials very well, as long as the disaster relief grain passes through their hands, thirty percent can really fall into the hands of the people, it is already a miracle, this kind of thing happens from time to time even in the three states of Yongji and Liang, not to mention the Luoyang court, which is extremely corrupt.

"Don't worry, Taishi." Ma Ridan was so moved that he cried and said: "This time the grain arrives, and the old man takes the whole family to be the grain distribution officer to ensure that every grain is distributed to the people." ”

Kang Peng nodded, and just wanted to order the transfer of grain from Yongzhou, but the stingy ghost Jia Xu reminded Kang Peng: "King Kang, this year, Chen Liutuntian has achieved quite results, and there is still some grain stock, Xu suggested, King Kang might as well transfer Chen Liu's grain to Luoyang." ”

Kang Peng suddenly realized, Chen Liu's grain was originally Dong Zhuojun's arrangement in the Central Plains of a piece of bait, at the beginning of the year, Kang Peng went to the imperial court, and played the jujube only for Chen Liu's Taishou, and Kang Peng's memory is the same, Chen Liu's wind and rain in the first four years of the peace are smooth, the climate is suitable for grain production, and the land flooded will become fertile, and the jujube is only going very smoothly in Chenliu's tuntian, and the grain has obtained a great bumper harvest, but unfortunately Cao Cao and Tian Feng have seen through Kang Peng's uneasy and kind intention to put the grain in front of them, He would rather starve than lead Yuan Cao to fight for the grain of a county, and Kang Peng was cheapened for nothing, and the grain that had been harvested had to be hoarded in Chenliu's official treasury. Kang Peng nodded after thinking about it, and said to the generals: "Gentlemen, who are you waiting for who is willing to go to Chenliu to escort the grain?" ”

"Brother." Dong Chong jumped out, patted his chest and said: "Brother is willing to share the worries of his brother and the king, and promise to take a lot of grain to Luoyang." Ma Zhan and Ai Jin behind Dong Chong squeezed each other's eyebrows, they were all overjoyed, most of Yanzhou's livelihood was withering, and the people were living in hardship - it was a good place for Dong Erjun to buy and sell cheap slaves and maids.

Kang Peng couldn't understand what Dong Chong's group had in their stomachs, but Kang Peng was also very grateful to Dong Boss's family for their selfless support to him, and couldn't bear to refute their face, nodded and said: "Okay, you take the people from your headquarters to Chenliu to transport grain, go and return quickly, you must rush back to Chang'an before the twelfth day of the first lunar month to participate in the lonely carry ceremony." ”

"Obey my brother's orders." Dong Chong laughed and agreed, so Kang Peng led the elite of Dong Zhuo's army back to Chang'an, and Dong Chong took his recognized waste army all the way to Yanzhou to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, and the previous two expeditions were slightly different from the configuration of Dong Chong's team, because of repeated miraculous achievements, the indefatigable Kang Peng finally began to allocate money, food and weapons and equipment to this army, but the two deputy generals of this army, Ai Jin and Ma Zhuang, are the masters of the waist, and they can't look down on the food and ordnance that the army regularly supplies, Sell all the regular supplies at a low price, and buy additional equipment for this army out of your own pocket, what is the ring armor produced in the state, the sharp blade of Chang'an, the high-quality horses and beef and mutton jerky in Liangzhou, everything, in terms of equipment alone, Dong Erjun's equipment is better than Dong Zhuojun's ace Xiliang Iron Cavalry and the trapped camp!

Dong Erjun has such good conditions, naturally there are many delicious and lazy Dong Zhuo officers and soldiers who want to squeeze into Dong Erjun, but Ma Zhuang and Ai Jin are Wu Dalang to open a shop - higher than them, after returning from Bingzhou, Dong Erjun only supplemented a dozen Jianghu artists who were playing monkeys and hawks - specially trained eagles and monkeys in the army for Dong Er, Ma Zhuang and Ai Jin to play, and there was also a supplement to a bad military doctor who had the same smell as Dong Er's and others - don't stop, no one else wants, or those family guys with five poisons as the main force.

Can Cao Cao's army welcome Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty? Will Dong Erjun encounter a tiger and leopard ride when he goes out this time? If it happens, can Dong Erjun, the world's most wasteful firewood, 'defeat' the tiger and leopard cavalry of the famous army of the Three Kingdoms?
