Chapter 358: Fall and Birth
Cao Xuan was walking in a hurry in the main hall of the palace, while Feng Yun was following closely behind, and as soon as Cao Xuan returned, Feng Yun reported a major incident to Cao Xuan, and Cao Cao sent an envoy to come.
Cao Cao is also a king of Wei no matter how he says it now, and this diplomacy is the first time that Wei has sent an envoy to Qin, so something big must have happened.
It's just that the envoy of Wei came at a different time, and Cao Xuan at that time suddenly got the news that the north was in an emergency, and Hadoli invaded with an army of 100,000, so Cao Xuan didn't think about it, and rushed to the north with the army with a firecracker, so he didn't see the envoy of Wei, and now he knows about it.
Although there was some delay in Cao Xing's departure after this incident, there was still some atmosphere in Cao Xing's heart at the beginning, and when he left Luoyang for Bianyun County, everything had been arranged, and all departments in the country performed their duties, and there was no room for any chaos.
Therefore, even if Cao Xing is not in the country, when he encounters major national events, the same can be dealt with according to the regular procedures, but Feng Yun is stubborn, and he delayed until Cao Xing came back before he said.
Cao Xuan asked Feng Yun why he wanted to do this, Feng Yun also replied to Cao Xuan with some bitterness, because he really didn't dare to call the shots in this matter, and he had to wait for Cao Xuan to come back before he could make a decision, Cao Xuan asked the envoy of Wei to come here, what was the so-called matter, Feng Yun replied, the envoy of Wei actually wanted Zhang Ji.
Hearing this, Cao Xing was stunned, this envoy of Wei actually wanted to find Zhang Ji, what was the matter?
Zhang Ji is now managing the medical hall under Cao Xing, and his medical hall has been almost unchanged in the entire Qin State, and the role of the medical hall, as the name suggests, is either to study art or to treat the sick and heal. Therefore, the Qin State must control the development of the medical center, after all, if the medical center is really in the hands of private individuals, they can greatly increase the cost of treatment, and it is very likely that the people will not be able to pay for the medicine, so the current medical center is under the name of the household department and is managed by the household department.
As soon as the envoy of Wei came and said that he wanted to borrow Zhang Ji, which made Feng Yun a little overwhelmed, Zhang Ji seemed to be just the director of the medical hall, but then again, Zhang Ji was a miracle doctor, and he must not be casual with the outside world, so Feng Yun had no way to give this order, so he could only let Cao Xing come back and decide.
After listening to the truth of the matter, Cao Xuan also nodded, Feng Yun did nothing wrong, after all, Zhang Ji is a miracle doctor, he must not run to the country at every turn, so it will be very dangerous, but Cao Xuan is also very curious, according to Feng Yun said so, the envoy of Wei came in a hurry, threatening to borrow Zhang Ji, and said nothing else, this is not like the style of Wei State, let alone Cao Cao's style, which tendon Cao Cao is wrong, and he made such an unreasonable request as soon as he came.
But in any case, you must first see the envoy of Wei to understand the situation, and when Cao Xuan pushed open a door, he could find that the envoy was sitting inside, holding a letter in his hand, and his brows couldn't help frowning.
The envoy obviously also sensed Cao Xing's coming, and hurriedly stood up and bowed: "King Qin! ”
Cao Xuan waved his hand, this was just a private meeting, there was no need to do so much etiquette, he Cao Xing, wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to meet in private, to probe the reality of the envoy of Wei, to see what Wei wanted to make peace, but when Cao Xuan just saw this envoy, he couldn't help but squint his eyes.
"You are?"
"Heh, in the next is the envoy of the Wei State, Xun Yu is also!"
When he saw the name Xun Yu, Cao Xing's expression was a little trance, although he had been in this world for a long time, and there were not a few fierce generals and celebrities that Cao Xing had seen, but when he heard the name Xun Yu, his expression was still a little unnatural.
During the Three Kingdoms period, the Yingchuan Xun clan was very famous, the mountain was not high, the immortal was famous, the water was not deep, and the dragon was spiritual, and the Xun family produced Xun Yu and Xun You, two great ministers, who were in a high position in the Wei State, so their family was naturally famous all over the world.
Especially this Xun Yu, Cao Cao's biography in Cao Cao's self-description. Xun Yu is my son's room, the ovary is Zhang Liang, is the first mastermind under Han Gaozu, Cao Cao, this person, is very cherished talents, but it is precisely because he cherishes talents, so his evaluation of talents is also very high, and ordinary strategists cannot enter his eyes.
But he was able to give Xun Yu such a high evaluation, and it can be judged from this point that he really appreciates Xun Yu, and Xun Yu's talent is indeed very high, whether it is strategy or politics, he is a good hand, except for not going to the battlefield to lead troops to fight, the rest can be called all-round talents.
Cao Xing couldn't have imagined that Cao Cao would send Xun Yu to envoy Qin, Xun Yu was in Cao Cao's high position, and he sent an envoy to Qin, so naturally there was something extraordinary, and he had to inform Cao Xing.
But looking at Xun Yu's appearance now, he shook his head with a helpless wry smile, and stepped forward to arch his hand to Cao Xing.
"King Qin, I hope to forgive my sins, I know that the northern frontier of your Qin State is in an emergency, so I won't blame you for the fact that you lead the troops to attack in person and can't come back in time, I believe that my King Wei will not either, but everything is over, and I hope King Qin will not be suspicious!"
After saying this, Xun Yu bowed to Cao Xuan again, and then withdrew, Cao Xuan looked at Xun Yu's back as he left, he forgot Feng Yun behind him and Feng Yun glanced at Feng Yun, he was also dumbfounded, and he didn't react for a long time What was going on.
Xun Yu is a talent, but others are also envoys of Wei, whether it is the etiquette of envoys to other countries or whatever, they are doing very well, Cao Xing can't find anything wrong, so Xun Yu left here like this.
However, three days later, Cao Xuan finally received a secret report from Jinyiwei, and Cao Cao really had a big event, that is, his plot was lost.
When Cao Xuan heard the news, he narrowed his eyes and thought about it carefully, Cao Xuan finally understood that the reason why Cao Cao would send Xun Yu here was just for Xi Zhicai's condition, Cao Cao knew that Cao Xuan had the magic doctor Zhang Ji here, so he wanted Xun Yu to come over and ask Zhang Ji to treat Xi Zhicai, he didn't want Xi Zhicai to leave.
Because Xi Zhicai's onset was too sudden, Cao Cao didn't do any diplomatic etiquette, so he could only send someone he valued more to go, so everything before appeared.
When Cao Xing went to see Xun Yu, Xun Yu also happened to receive a letter from Cao Cao, and Cao Cao told Xun Yu that he didn't have to wait any longer, because Xi Zhicai had already gone.
A strategist like Xi Zhicai, unlike Xun Yu, Xun Yu is proficient in conspiracy and politics, and can be both a strategist and a country, but Xi Zhicai is different, his political level is definitely not as superb as Xun Yu, he is only very outstanding in military affairs.
Strategists like them can be said to have been born specifically for war, and their purpose is only one, to send a million male soldiers in their chests to help their lords establish a hegemony, and that's it.
Therefore, in a certain aspect, the drama is strategic, which is much higher than Xun Yu and Xun Yu. It can be said that every time there is a major event, Cao Cao has to find Xi Zhicai to discuss, and Xi Zhicai can be said to have become one of Cao Cao's indispensable advisers, but he died like this, and he is indeed a jealous talent.
The death of Xi Zhicai certainly made Cao Cao very sad, but within a few days, another young man walked into Cao Cao's barracks. Soon after, this young man will also take the place of Xi Zhicai and become Cao Cao's mastermind, laying an immortal feats for Cao Cao's hegemony.
Another half a month passed, and it seemed to be very quiet in this half month, but half a month later, an unexpected little thing broke this quiet day.
The incident happened at the junction of Jizhou and Yanzhou. It was also in this context that it was said that there was a dispute between two farming families in that area because one farmer stole the cattle of the other farming family.
When the stolen cattle farmer learned of this news, he was naturally displeased, and immediately became furious, and directly called the people of their village, in groups of three or five, and crossed over with wooden sticks to settle accounts with the cattle thief, resulting in a huge friction between the villagers of the two villages.
This incident alarmed the local officials on both sides of Wei and Zhao, and the yamen on both sides of Zhao and Wei saw that the people on both sides of the other party had already crossed their borders, and they were also furious, and without saying a word, they opened the knife, and the people on both sides suddenly became a mess.
In fact, it is just a normal thing for two villagers to have a conflict, but this matter seems to have hit a certain fuse, and things began to get bigger and bigger, first the county government of the two countries intervened, and then it made trouble to the Taishou county guard, and finally it is said that the center of their country was alarmed.
Although it seems to ordinary people that this is just a simple contradiction, in the eyes of the central leaders of the two countries, it is not just a simple contradiction. This involves a question of face, so no matter which country has to favor the villagers on its own side, it must not let the villagers on its side apologize first, so the relationship between the two countries has begun to become extremely tense.
Tensions between the two countries are high, and it is only natural that the two monarchs will be deeply involved in this situation. For Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, Cao Cao has some dispensable feelings, because Xi Zhicai has just passed away, and he has lost his right-hand man Dian Wei before, so the current mood is naturally full of grief, and he naturally doesn't pay much attention to these things, but for Yuan Shao, it's different.
Yuan Shao is also a person, the third prince of the world was born after a famous family. At this moment, Yuan Shao was fighting with Gongsun Du in Liaoxi, and Gongsun Du dared to rashly call King Yan, which had caused Yuan Shao to be highly dissatisfied.
So Yuan Shao didn't say a word, and immediately waved his army to give an order, attack Yan State, and ask Gongshen to cancel his title of King Yan, Gongsun Du is also a violent temper, this Yuan Shao bullied people to his head, since this is the case, then he, the King of Yan, can't help but squeak, if he wants to fight, he will fight.
As a result, Yuan Shao had just entered the territory of Liaodong, and he encountered the unanimous foreign affairs of the local clans in Liaodong, so Yuan Shao was also a very headache, but then again, Yuan Shao occupied three states and counties, and the combined prosperity and military strength of these three states and counties were comparable to a small Liaodong.
Therefore, under the pressure of Yuan Shao's soldiers, the depth of the public is now more and more difficult, and it can only be supported hard, it is based on this situation, Yuan Shao is proud, and when he hears this, he slaps the table, this is a matter of face, he Yuan Shao IV and the third duke, when will he miss anything when he does anything and says anything?
Seeing that Yuan Shao was so high-spirited, coupled with the fact that he had won another battle, his subordinates were all there one by one, it was okay not to shoot, and Yuan Shao became more energetic when he patted him.
He immediately announced to his subordinates that this matter was definitely the responsibility of Wei State, and since this was the case, then he asked Wei State to come up with an explanation, which was equivalent to making Wei State apologize.
Yuan Shao was also Cao Xing's dizzy, how could Cao Cao agree to this kind of thing. Therefore, when Yuan Shao's diplomat arrived at Cao Cao's capital Xuchang with high spirits, Cao Cao was furious and angry in his heart.
If it weren't for his subordinate Xun You, Mao Jie and others to stop him, it is estimated that Cao Cao would have gone up directly and slashed this messenger with a knife. The messenger was so frightened that he immediately walked back.
After returning to his Zhao State, it was a handful of snot and tears, like they had been greatly wronged, what a bastard Cao Cao was, how badly he beat him, and deeply humiliated the self-esteem of this envoy of Zhao State.
Although Yuan Shao was fighting with Gongsun Du at the moment, but with Yuan Shao's arrogance, how could he endure this bad breath, so he didn't say much, and immediately sent his general Yan Liang, who led 20,000 troops to Yanzhou, to wander around and harass constantly.
Originally, if it was just Yan Liang who brought some soldiers and horses to make trouble, Cao Cao would not be afraid, but Yan Liang also brought a military advisor on this trip, and the name of that military advisor was Fu Zhi.
Fu Zhu is the first strategist under Yuan Shao, he came to the front line to command the battle, in the final analysis, he is only a staff officer, but Yan Liang is also a person who will respect the strategist and listen to the command of others everywhere.
The guidance of Frustration, combined with Yan Liang's bravery, finally caused the end of the two of them working together to harass the chaos in Yanzhou.
Cao Cao was furious about this, and directly ordered the two brothers Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan to meet the enemy. Although the two brothers Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun have experienced the baptism of war for a long time. The two of them are naturally among the ranks of first-class military generals.
Therefore, the resistance of the two brothers Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan played a certain role in hindering Yan Liangwen Chou, but the two brothers of Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun were fighting, and they were quite helpless in their hearts.
They did not lose to Yan Liang in tactics, but Yan Liang also played tricks with them, in general, Yan Liang was frustrated, under the advice of Frustration, the enemy retreated, I advanced, and the enemy advanced and I retreated. The two brothers of Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan were beaten crazy.
