Chapter 70: Cao Cao's First Army
This person's name is Wei Hong, although he is not a celebrity, but he is also a rich party, Zhang Ze's thousands of gold and a pot of Wanma wine are bought on others, and Wei Hong has always bought wine on cars, and has paid a large amount of deposit, as long as there is a new output of exquisite Wanma wine in the wine club, half of it is directly sent to Wei Hong's house; Even Wei Hong almost made a deal with Zhang Ze not long ago, Wei Hong planned to buy Zhang Ze's entire store in Chenliu's Wanma Wine Club plus the liquor production line at a high price, Zhang Ze was also surprised when he saw the other party's offer, but Zhang Ze, who knew the concept of monopoly, finally rejected this tempting deal, and even Zhang Ze, a person with such amazing wealth, could feel distressed after rejecting this deal, which shows the strength of his family property.
After a night, when he saw Cao Cao again, he was already refreshed, at this time he was encouraged by his father to reinvigorate, the whole person was in high spirits, high-spirited, and after writing the invitation letter carefully, he waited for Wei Hong's arrival.
The Cao family is also a top family in Chenliu, coupled with Cao Cao's feats, Cao Cao's reputation has resounded all over the country at this time, Wei Hong knew that it was Cao Cao who invited him, so he rode directly on the horse without hesitation and set off to Cao's mansion for a banquet with only one or two guards.
Cao Cao waited at the gate early in the morning, and at this time he saw a middle-aged man who was quite elegant and had the temperament of a superior person, and knew that Wei Hong was coming, so he hurriedly greeted him.
"Presumably you are the Cao Cao who dared to assassinate Dong Zhuo in the Luoyang Prime Minister's Mansion, it is really a blessing that such a heroic figure can see it today! When the float is white! ”
"The food and drinks have already been prepared, just waiting for the guests to come to the door, please!"
Cao Cao bowed down and invited Wei Hong into his home.
"Master Cao, why are you still up, please take a seat, I can't stand it."
Cao Song naturally had to be present at this banquet, to show his attitude, to express to Wei Hong that he supported Cao Cao's approach, if Cao Cao couldn't even convince his father and couldn't get his father's trust and support, then letting others trust and support him Cao Cao was simply empty talk.
At a banquet, the main food is usually preceded by an appetizer, and the same is true for conversation, which is always served first with wine and singing and dancing, and it is not until the guests have had their best to talk about it.
Cao Cao loves poetry, song and dance, so the singers and dancers in Cao Song's mansion can be said to be the top team in the whole of China, second only to Dong Zhuo and Wang Yun.
Dancing to open the way, building bridges with wine, and staying until the wine is drunk is the best time to say the invitation.
"Mr. Wei, I invite you to the house for a banquet today, it is my Cao Cao who wants to ask you for help, now the Han family has no owner, Dong Zhuo is autocratic, bullying the king and harming the people, who in the world does not grit his teeth, Cao wants to block the general of the Han family, but unfortunately his strength is beyond his reach, Wei Gong is a loyal and righteous person, Cao has the cheekiness to ask you to help this time."
"I've been waiting for a long time until you say this, and it can be regarded as a trip that makes me live in vain, I have been sponsoring all kinds of strong men, but anyone who has a little ability has received my help, but from beginning to end I have never met a person who really has great ambitions or can do great things, until I heard your Cao Cao's feats, I haven't met someone who can make me admire so much for a long time, when I received your invitation letter, I think my family has found a good place to go with all the money that my family has saved over the years, I, Wei Hong, am willing to become a monk and help you Cao Cao. ”
Unlike what Cao Cao thought, there was no intrigue, and there was no bargaining, this may be the legendary gentleman's demeanor, after the words were opened, the two of them no longer hid, what to say, Cao Cao told his future plans all the way, the more he talked to Wei Hong, the more he found that Cao Cao's thinking was not only clear but also far away, at first Wei Hong could say a few words, but later it can be said that Cao Cao dominated the conversation, Wei Hong couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Such a person is really worth taking refuge in!" ”
At the same time, Wei Hong also has a deeper understanding of Zhang Ze, Cao Cao repeatedly mentioned Zhang Ze in the conversation and quoted Zhang Ze's words many times, a person who can make Cao Cao so respectful is more worthy of his admiration, the two of them drank and fell to the ground drunk, and under Cao Song's arrangement, Wei Hong was sent home safely.
When he woke up the next day, Cao Cao began to issue an edict, on the one hand, let the fast horse spread the edict to the provinces, on the other hand, he began to gather volunteers, set up a recruitment office, and set up a big banner next to him to write the word loyalty.
The first people to come were their own family Xiahou two brothers, Xiahou Tang and Xiahou Yuan, these two people have strong martial arts, and have their own more than 1,000 soldiers, all of whom have been trained for a long time, and responded at the first time when Cao Cao issued a list to recruit, and then came the two brothers of the Cao family, Cao Ren and Cao Hong, although they are not a family with Cao Cao, but their ambitions are the same as Cao Cao's ambitions, Today, when I learned that Cao Cao was recruiting troops in Chenliu, I immediately rode a horse to enlist, and then the two of them were Cao Cao's right-hand men, and their names were Li Dian and Le Jin.
Within a few days, Cao Cao's army has reached more than 10,000 people, Wei Hong saw that Cao Cao's money was tight, so he took out most of the family's money to support Cao Cao, and purchased grain and grass, weapons, armor and war horses for the troops. Only barely equipped the troops of these 10,000 people, and the food purchased could barely feed the expenses of more than 10,000 people for a year, but fortunately, many large households spontaneously sent food to Cao Cao so that Wei Hong's family industry could still be kept in a safe state, and there was still a little liquidity in case of emergency.
Cao Cao also knew that the wool could not be slammed at a sheep, and watching Wei Hong, who was originally generous, become careful and calculated, Cao Cao felt uncomfortable, but with the current economic situation, there is indeed no other way, but to repay the righteous Wei Hong in the future.
