Just when Li Yu, Guo Yan and others sang and danced every day, and drank and delicacies every day. Qingzhou yellow scarves rise again.

The Yellow Turban Rebellion in Qingzhou gathered hundreds of thousands, the leaders were acquaintances, and plundered the good people, while the Qingzhou officials promised to report to the Son of Heaven and asked the imperial court to send troops to rescue.

Just when Li Yu, Guo Yan and others had nothing to do,

The servant Zhu Jun was like one of the four people, and even threatened that this person would definitely be able to break the group of thieves.

Li Dao and Guo Yan asked who it was. Zhu Jun said: "If you want to break the group of thieves in Shandong, you have to Cao Mengde." ”

Li Yu frowned when he heard this, but thinking that he didn't need to send troops himself, he asked, "Where is Cao Mengde today?" ”

Zhu Jun said: "Now it is the Taishou of Dongjun, and there are many soldiers. If this person is ordered to beg the thief, the thief will be broken. ”

In the end, Li Dao was overjoyed, sent someone to Dongjun, and ordered Cao Cao and Jibei Prime Minister Bao Xin to break the thieves together.

Cao Cao received the holy decree, and together with Bao Xin, he raised troops and attacked the thieves in Shouyang. Bao Xin entered the heavy ground and was victimized by thieves. Cao Cao pursued the thieves until Jibei, where tens of thousands of people fell.

Subsequently, Cao Cao used these Yellow Turban captives as the whole army, and personally led a large army to kill these Yellow Turban prisoners. Everywhere the soldiers and horses went, they all surrendered to Cao Cao!

This battle lasted only more than 100 days, and more than 300,000 soldiers were recruited, and more than 100,000 men and women were recruited. Cao Cao selected 100,000 elite soldiers from them and named them "Qingzhou Soldiers", and the rest were ordered to return to the peasants.

Since then, Cao Cao's prestige has been greatly enhanced. When the good news reached Luoyang, Li Yu crowned Cao Cao as the general of Zhendong in the name of the imperial court.

Then Cao Cao recruited talents in Yanzhou. In the meantime, there is a person from the Yingchuan Xun family who came to vote for Cao Cao, surnamed Xun, named Yudan, and the words are ruo.

Xun Yu is the son of Xun Sui, who previously served Yuan Shao in Hanoi, but now he feels that Yuan Shao is difficult to achieve great things, and he is disloyal to the imperial court, so he abandoned Yuan Shao and came to Cao Cao!

Cao Cao was overjoyed by Xun Yu, and when he met people, he said that Xun Yu was his ovary, and he appointed him as the marching Sima!

And Xun Yu was reused by Cao Cao, so he recommended talents to Cao Cao Cao Cao Cao, and Cao Cao was overjoyed to ask who it was.

Xun Yu said: "Yu has a window in Yingchuan, surnamed Guo, named Jia, and the word Fengxiao, which is the great sage of today!" ”

Cao Cao was overjoyed and said, "I have heard of his name for a long time, but I haven't been introduced, so I don't dare to invite you!" ”

Then Xun Yu went to Yingchuan with Cao Cao to visit Guo Jia, Guo Jia saw Cao Cao and Xun Yu, but Xun Yu recommended him, so he followed Cao Cao in desperation.

But he said to Cao Cao: "If he feels that his talent is not enough and he needs to leave, I hope that Cao Gong will not stay." After that, he returned to Yanzhou with Cao Cao!

After returning to Yanzhou, Guo Jia recommended the two to Cao Cao:

One is a native of Changyi, Shanyang, with a full surname, a pet, and a word Boning;

One is a native of Wucheng, surnamed Lu, whose name is pious, and whose name is Ke.

Cao Cao also knew these two reputations, so he was hired to serve in the army.

Soon after Fang returned to Yanzhou, there was another battle to lead hundreds of troops to join Cao Cao, who was a native of Taishan Juping, surnamed Yu, whose name was forbidden, and the words were written.

Cao Cao saw that he was skilled in bows and horses, and his martial arts were outstanding, so he was ordered to be the commander of the army.

On this day, Cao Cao and the Xiahou brothers were hunting in the mountains, and when they saw a strong man and Xiahou Dun snatching the prey, the two fought!

Xiahoudun sat on the horse, while the strong man stood on the ground, but he was not afraid, and fought with Xiahoudun with his bare hands for thirty rounds, and won and lost!

Cao Cao was overjoyed when he saw this, so he said to Xiahou Yuan: "I see that this person is burly and must have courage. ”

Xiahou Yuan also chimed in: "If there is a fair battle, Yuan Rang will not be too much!" "Let the two be separated, and the fight will stop!

And the strong man saw that Xiahoudun did not fight with him, so he picked up the prey and walked out of the mountain!

Cao Cao and the Xiahou brothers led a group of people to follow! After walking for less than half a mile, the strong man looked back and asked, "Do you still want to snatch a certain prey?" ”

Cao Cao smiled when he heard this: "No, I want to invite a strong man to return with me and conspire with me!" ”

"Who are you?"

"I am the calm general Cao Cao, I don't know who the strong man's surname is? Are you willing to follow me to clear the thieves for the big man? Cao Cao said!

"You are the Cao Cao who fought for millions of yellow scarves, I am willing to follow you, but there is still an old mother at home, and it is inconvenient to travel far!"

"What's so hard about that? I will send someone to pick up your old mother and leave with us!" Cao Cao said!

"In this way, I Xu Chu will follow the lord!" The strong man said.

It turns out that this person is a native of Qian County, surnamed Xu, named Chu, and the word Zhongkang! It is more than eight feet long, with a large waist and ten girths, a majestic appearance and extraordinary bravery.

Cao Cao was overjoyed by Xu Chu, so he ordered Xu Chu to be the captain in front of the tent, untie the padded jacket on his body, and give him the carved saddle of the horse.

Since then, Cao Cao's subordinates have strategists, military generals, and Weizhen Shandong.

Then Cao Cao sent Taishan Taishou to respond to Shao and went to Langya County to invite his father Cao Song.

Cao Song took refuge in Chen and lived in seclusion in Langya; On the same day, he received the letter, and his brother Cao De and a family of more than 40 people, with more than 100 followers, more than 100 cars, went straight to Yanzhou.

The road passes through Xuzhou, too shou Tao Qian, the word Gong Zu, is gentle and pure, and wants to accept Cao Cao, there is no reason;

Knowing that the father passed by, he left the country to greet him, and then bowed and saluted, and set up a feast for two days.

Cao Song wanted to go, Tao Qian personally sent Guo out, and Zhang Min, the special captain, escorted 500 soldiers.

Cao Song led his family to China and Feijian, when the end of summer and early autumn, heavy rain came, and he had to spend time in an ancient temple.

However, Cao Cao sent his henchmen to lead an army of 1,000 to Xuzhou in the starry night, and saw Cao Song and his party staying in the ancient temple, so that they could kill the generals in the middle of the night!

The whole temple, both young and old, as well as Cao Cao's father, were all killed by Cao Cao's henchmen! Then he poured out Zhang Min's body, buried it in the deserted suburbs, and rushed back to Yanzhou to return to Cao Cao on a starry night!

Cao Cao was reinstated, and he was ecstatic in his heart, but his face was like a mournful woman, and he cried and ordered a group of civil and military officers to discuss matters overnight.

After Wenwu arrived, Cao Cao said that his father Cao Song was killed by Tao Qian in Xuzhou.

When a group of civil and military officers heard this, they were furious, and they all asked for war to lead troops to attack Xuzhou. Cao Cao saw that the whole army was united and felt that the army's heart was available, so he began to prepare for the whole people to attack Xuzhou!

Before the attack, Cao Cao issued a document questioning Tao Qian, which was inevitable!

……

Since Yuan Shao captured Jizhou, he had plenty of food and grass, so he followed Feng Ji's advice and began to recruit troops and talents.

On this day, Yuan Shao listened to the recommendation of the previous Han Fu account, saying that there was a capable minister under the previous Han Fu account, surnamed Fu, famous, and Guangping.

When Yuan Shao heard this, he sent someone to Guangping to inquire about this person and summoned him as the marching Sima!

Then, the general Zhang He led a member of the generals to come. Yuan Shao saw his bravery, so he asked Zhang He who this person was!

Zhang He replied: "This is Chen Liuren, surname, name Wei, and great bravery. The old followed Zhang Miao, disagreed with the people under the tent, killed dozens of people, and fled to the mountains. ”

"Today, when I hunted prey and entered the city to sell animal skins, I quarreled with people and injured several people.

Recently, I heard that the lord is recruiting talents, and I specially introduced this person to see the lord, this person is courageous, he will be a strong general for the lord's account one day! ”

Yuan Shao thought about it for a while, and felt that he couldn't erase Zhang He's face, so he showed great joy, put Dian Wei under his account, and ordered him to be Zhang He's deputy general and lead an army!

Dian Wei, Zhang He was overjoyed when he heard this, and left after worshipping Yuan Shao!

And Yuan Shao, in the name of the fourth and third dukes, came to take refuge in many people.

One day, the people of Weiyin County, the trial match, the word is south, and the whole family came to vote for Yuan Shao!

Yuan Shao saw that the trial was upright, so he entrusted him with the responsibility of the heart and the prime minister of the shogunate.

And the trial was reused, so he recommended another person, surnamed Xu, the name is you, the word is far away, and the name is from Nanyang County, Jingzhou!

At the same time, because Jizhou has no shortage of grain and grass, and the population is rich, Yuan Shao recruited 100,000 soldiers within half a year, with a total strength of 200,000!

Then Yuan Shao assigned the soldiers to various armies, and it was not a problem for the generals to practice.

At the same time, frustration and trial jointly came to find Yuan Shao.

But because there was no male lord in Jizhou at this time, and there was no source of war horses in Jizhou, the two of them came to suggest that Yuan Shao strategist merge with the state!

This plan coincided with what Yuan Shao wanted in his heart, so Yuan Shao sent a messenger to Gongsun Zan in Youzhou to offer grain and grass to release his suspicions.

And Gongsun Zhan got his grain and grass, so he promised not to start a war with Yuan Shao, but recruiting troops and horses was not a problem!
