Cao Xuan also paid a lot of price, but the result was unsatisfactory, although Cao Xuan was dissatisfied, but Cao Xuan still forcibly suppressed his anger, and asked Che Wu and Wei Yan what was going on, Che Wu and Wei Yan also quickly answered truthfully.

Che Wu with Jin Yiwei secretly ambushed in the major counties, just waiting for Cao Cao to leave, he broke out, the defense forces in the county are not enough, logically speaking, Che Wu should be able to easily achieve the strategic goal, but in the end it was still unsuccessful, the reason is only because Li Dian's reinforcements still arrived.

In this way, the problem seems to be Wei Yan's body, Wei Yan felt a little embarrassed, but in the end, he still said that when he was fighting with Li Dian, it was completely tightly controlled, and he resolutely did not let Li Dian break through his defense, but this Li Dian was a complete Leng Touqing.

When the two sides fought, Wei Yan aimed at Li Dian standing in the crowd, Wei Yan didn't say a word, holding his big knife, just like Li Dian was killing madly, and Li Dian did not retreat, holding a spear and strangling Wei Yan together.

Li Dian's martial arts are not weak, and he has reached the point of the late stage of the Seventh Martial Dao, but after all, he still can't beat Wei Yan.

After more than 20 moves, Wei Yan had already beaten Li Dian to danger, and after more than 30 moves, Wei Yan saw the opportunity and cut Li Dian's chest with a knife, but what Wei Yan did not expect was that Li Dian, who was injured, not only did not retreat at all, but also killed more violently, taking advantage of Wei Yan's inattention, a spear also stabbed Wei Yan's ankle.

Wei Yan was surprised, is this Li Dian dying? Fighting with Wei Yan was completely an exchange of injuries for injuries, and life for life, and in the next fight, it happened to be fulfilled, Li Dian's madness and lack of life made Wei Yan fight a little embarrassed.

Wei Yan turned his heart sideways, he thought that this Li Dian was going to die with him, but what he didn't expect was that as time went by, he finally found out what the problem was, although Li Dian had been fighting with him in front of him, but the soldiers under his command had broken through Wei Yan's defense line and rushed to the rear.

If you look at it from another angle, you can't get Li Dian's idea, he just let his soldiers and horses run forward to support other county towns first, and it will be cut off by Li Dian, the general.

When Wei Yan found out about Li Dian's thoughts, he wanted to turn around and order his soldiers to never let Li Dian's army pass, but Li Dian was like crazy, at this moment he had been slashed by Wei Yan more than ten times, but he was fighting to the death, and he still dragged Wei Yan's pace, and Wei Yan didn't dare to have too many distractions.

In the end, under Li Dian's crazy fighting, his troops completely passed through Wei Yan's defense line, and Li Dian did not retreat, but in the end he was also killed under the escort of more than a dozen personal soldiers, so Wei Yan went this way, not only did he not block Li Dian's soldiers, but even Li Dian ran away, Wei Yan at this moment was also ashamed, and he didn't dare to look at Cao Xing with his head down, after all, he didn't do anything for two things.

After hearing these words, Cao Xuan took a deep breath, and finally took two steps forward and helped Wei Yan and Che Wu up.

Although Wei Yan may have done a little bad in this matter, Cao Xuan finally reviewed himself, and after all, he still underestimated the generals under Cao Cao.

Li Dian is familiar with the art of war, and is even more loyal to Cao Wei, although in the history of the Three Kingdoms, he is certainly not as dazzling as those generals under Cao Cao, but others just have a spirit of fighting to the death, so they gradually entered Cao Cao's field of vision.

This kind of talent, using his spirit of daring to work hard, successfully stopped Wei Yan, which is also reasonable. After all, although Wei Yan said that he joined the army a few years ago, Wei Yan, who was in Jingzhou, had not fought a few tough battles, and he still had some youth for the war, and I believe that it would slowly change in the future, but now that things have come to this, it can only be like this.

Cao Xuan waved his hand and motioned for Che Wu and Wei Yan to go down, he didn't pursue this matter, but when Cao Xuan just wanted to say this, Che Wu stood up and said to Cao Xing.

"My lord, in fact, we didn't get nothing this time!"

"Oh, yes!" Che Wu's words still aroused Cao Xing's interest, after all, Cao Xuan had been planning this battle for so long, like Cao Cao had shown weakness for so long, but in the end it was still unsuccessful, and Cao Xuan also felt a little pity when it came to it. However, Che Wu now said that he had a harvest there, so Cao Xing became interested and asked what kind of harvest Che Wu had.

Che Wu told Cao Xuan truthfully that when he personally led people to sabotage in a county town, in fact, the destruction in that county town was not very big, for no other reason, the county commander in that county town actually personally led the officers and soldiers to fight to the death with Che Wu and others, although Che Wu's Jinyi Guard, all of them are superb martial arts, how can these ordinary officers and soldiers defending the city be their opponents? However, when Che Wu completely solved these people, Li Dian's increase also arrived, and even Li Dian seemed to know that Che Wu was here, and Li Dian also wanted to capture Che Wu alive, so he asked people to surround this place.

Che Wu, who was in a hurry, saw that the county magistrate and many county officials had not been killed, so he directly took these people as hostages, and finally escaped from danger.

Caught a few captives and came back, maybe it was the only result of this plan, Cao Xuan also nodded helplessly, he asked Che Wu to drag those people up, after all, they are all officials in the county government, there must be a certain means of governance, Cao Cao also gave Cao Xuan a small gift, Cao Xuan just wanted to see if there were any people available in it.

Soon these people were brought to Cao Xing, there were about eight of them, and when seven of them entered Cao Xing's military camp, they watched the sergeants on both sides sharpen their knives Huo Huo, and they were already so frightened that they peed their pants, and immediately knelt on the ground, and kept kowtowing, just begging Cao Xing to spare their lives.

For these people, Cao Xing neither likes it, but also does not have any antipathy, life is precious, everyone's life is only once, when facing a crisis, it is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, there is nothing wrong with this.

Maybe this kind of behavior of theirs will sometimes be blamed by those so-called saints, but Cao Xing also knows that those guys are completely full of food and have nothing to do, they are usually carefree, food and clothing are worry-free, sitting at home reading their sage books, saying these words is just opening their mouths, they are not immersive, they do not feel the fear of death, if they want to change places with these people, it is estimated that these usually high-ranking people have long been scared to pee their pants.

So Cao Xing is only ready to test the true talent of these eight people, if there is indeed something that can be made, Cao Xing does not recommend leaving it, if it is useless, Cao Xing can let it go, but before Cao Xing had time to ask, he found an unusual person, seven of the eight people were trembling, but only one person was different, I saw that the person not only did not kneel, but also stared at Cao Xing with his eyes, and directly snorted coldly without saying a word.

When Che Wu saw this scene, he went up and kicked this person twice and wanted him to kneel, but this person straightened his waist and refused to kneel, and even said that he only knelt to his parents, as for saying that other people wanted him to kneel, it was wishful thinking.

As soon as Che Wu heard this, he became angry, and just wanted to take strong measures, but was stopped by Cao Xing, who squinted at this person. This person is not like those so-called saints, who scolded Cao Xuan as soon as he came, and Cao Xuan could also feel that this person did not seem to have any disgust for himself, but he was unwilling to kneel.

Cao Xuan couldn't help but ask this person, what is your surname?

"I don't change my name, I don't change my surname, my name is full of pets!"

When Cao Xing heard this name, the whole person was stunned. Cao Xuan was silent for a full ten breaths, and finally the corners of his mouth curled up into an imperceptible smile.

Cao Xuan waved his hand and asked Che Wu to take all the other seven people down, and he wanted to meet this full favor in person.

Man Zhong looked at the seven people who came with him, all of them were taken down, his heart was more or less panicked, but there was no fear on his face, and he still raised his head with his chest straight.

Cao Xuan smiled, and instead of asking Manpet some sensitive topics as soon as he came, he began to have a family routine with Manpet.

For Cao Xing's question, Man Zhong did not refuse, but answered truthfully, but he was still a little vigilant in his heart, he was afraid of one thing, that is, Cao Xing took out some secrets about Cao Caojun from his mouth, which was his bottom line, and he would never confide in Cao Xing.

However, what made Man Chong a little puzzled was that Cao Xing didn't ask him about Cao Cao's military situation until the end, but only asked at the end.

"Manzhong, what kind of system do you think should be adopted to govern the country, and in your opinion, what about today!"

Faced with Cao Xing's question, Man Chong had no thoughts, and replied directly: "If you want the country and the people to be safe, the only way is the rule of law, as for the reason, it is very simple, if it is the rule of man, it is very likely that there will be three results, and if you meet Mingjun, you will be prosperous." However, the legal system can well restrain a series of behaviors of the king and the family, so that everything in the world has rules to follow, so that the country will not have turmoil, which is also a way of long-term stability! ”

"As for today, hehe, it is said that it is to govern the country and level the world, but I think it is otherwise, the etiquette and law are too important, and the fundamental legal system is ignored, so it leads to the people below not having enough to eat, which led to the Yellow Turban Rebellion, this is my opinion!"

Fa Zheng Manzhong and Cao Xing are now opposites, they are enemies, and he doesn't need to have so many reservations about Cao Xing, he speaks directly and freely, and says whatever comes to mind in his heart, but what Man Chong didn't expect was that when he finished speaking, Cao Xing stood up and looked at him and applauded.

Cao Xing finally made sure that he didn't find the wrong person, what he wanted was the full favor of the law in history that does not tolerate the merciful law enforcement, and the full favor can be said to be a cool official, but he has passed the criminal law and saw the most essential problem.

Although Confucianism in history has always advocated governing the country and leveling the world, then again, the reason why Confucius, the patriarch of these Confucian scholars, founded Confucianism was also for a certain future at that time, so in Confucius's thoughts, the interests of the nobility were still safeguarded.

However, in this era of Confucianism, Manzhong can abandon these useless thoughts, which is a doer, and Cao Xing appreciates it very much.

"Hehe, Mr. Man, I seem to have heard you say just now, when you depose Confucianism from the Hundred Schools of Thought, but you who have always believed in Legalist thought, it seems that you can't do much good!"

Hearing Cao Xing say this, Man Pet also sighed helplessly, thinking that it was full of talent, and it was precisely because of this that he could not be promoted.

Cao Xing saw this, but a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, he looked at Manzhong with burning eyes and said: "Mr. is a great talent, but the luck is uneven, so he has not been able to exert his talents, but I believe that Mr., I have also heard of my Cao Xing's name, virtuous and capable, regardless of background, and the most important point is that I agree with your kind of thinking, I will carry forward your spirit of the rule of law, I don't know if Mr. is interested, come to me to do it?" ”

Hearing this, Man Chong fell into silence again, although he didn't believe in Confucianism's set of what kind of monarchs and ministers had to die, but loyalty to the monarch and patriotism This is only a very basic truth, and it is not limited to Confucianism.

Although Man Pet has not been able to fully exert his talents now, no matter what he says about others, Cao Cao has given Man Pet a chance and let Man Pet see the light, so Man Pet has some hesitation about what Cao Xuan said, and I don't know whether to agree or not.

Cao Xuan looked at Man Chong's hesitant expression, and laughed twice, he would not force Man Chong, he asked Man Chong to think about it, during this period, Man Chong was in Cao Xing's military camp, and he would be treated as a strategist, of course, if Man Chong finally thought about it clearly, he was still ready to return to Cao Cao's side, and Cao Xuan did not object. Cao Xing's approach can be said to have given a lot of convenience to the full pet.

Full Pet was a little flattered, but Cao Xuan laughed twice, and arranged everything for Full Pet.

Although Cao Cao in history also attaches great importance to full favor, Cao Cao's county order has been full of favor for a long time, so full favor can also be said to be a minister, but today's Cao Cao does not seem to have found the genius of full favor, just use it as an ordinary talent, since this is the case, then don't blame Cao Xing for taking the lead.

After Cao Xuan arranged the full favor, he didn't deliberately bother, and the next day he slowly withdrew the army, but on the way to withdraw the army, Cao Xing was not idle, opened the military map, and he knew that all this was not over.
