A very talented and learned child of the Cao family, he thinks that he has some talent, and he is a member of the Cao clan, plus Cao Cao is quite fond of him, and he usually acts as a da

g, no one in sight. One day, this son of the Cao family was invited by a distant relative of a prince of the Han family to be a guest in his house. During the banquet, the lord of the mansion saw that it was boring, so he asked his concubine to lead a few maids and dance to help the fun. Unexpectedly, that Cao family disciple was drunk and possessive of the mansion master's concubine. And that Cao disciple was born with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, red lips and white teeth, and was quite handsome. The children of the Cao family looked greedy, wantonly exploring the concubine of the mansion lord who was fiddling with style. It seems that the concubine of the lord of Nafu is also interested in this Cao family's disciple, and she is eye-to-eye with him.

After that, the adultery between the two became more and more uncontrollable, the sky and thunder stirred the earth, and the two lingered in a secret tryst, doing some shameless deeds. However, the good times did not last long, the paper could not contain the fire, and the two were finally discovered. The lord of the mansion was so angry that he executed his beloved concubine by family law, and then told his distant relatives about it, begging him to make decisions for him. The distant relatives of the lord of the mansion naturally found his relative, the Prince of the Han Family. And that Cao disciple, knowing that he had committed a catastrophe, hurriedly asked the elders of the clan to exonerate him. Later, the matter became bigger and bigger, and soon after, Luoyang City from the Han royal family to the people in the city knew about it. In order to block the mouth of Youyou, Cao Cao finally had to come forward to deal with it.

And Cao Cao Gui was the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, and the Han court was almost manipulated by him, and Cao Cao had always loved the Cao family's disciple, and many people thought that Cao Cao would definitely protect this person. After all, if Cao Cao dealt with it impartially, that Cao disciple would definitely die. And for the royal family, it's just an estranged relative who has lost a little face. As long as Cao Cao made some compensation to him, gave him some gold silk or gave him official fame and fortune, the matter would be over.

However, what is unforeseen is that Cao Cao not only did not try to protect the Cao family's disciple, but dealt with him harshly, leaving no mercy at all. According to the law, Cao Cao first sentenced him to palace punishment, and then put him outside the city, under the eyes of countless ministers and people, and divided his body into five horses. After his death, he shall not be buried.

That Cao disciple can be said to have died extremely miserably. And because he has the identity of the Cao family, the people who watched the law field that day were almost piled up at the Luoyang City Gate. Since then, the children of the Cao family have never dared to let go wantonly

g, arrogance has been restrained a lot. And the people of the royal family, not only did they not feel that they had saved face for Cao Cao's treatment, but they felt uneasy, lest Cao Cao would settle accounts after the autumn and walk on thin ice every day.

Later, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was even more special about this matter and appeased Cao Cao many times. However, Cao Cao did not seem to take this matter to heart, but instead indulged the children of his clan, and took the initiative to admit his mistake to Emperor Xian of Han, admitting that his jurisdiction was ineffective. When Emperor Han Xian saw Cao Cao, he was not like Dong Zhuo, Li Xu, and Guo Yan, ignoring the authority of the royal family, and he was overjoyed in his heart, and he trusted Cao Cao more and more.

Cao Cao's handling of this matter was actually a signal from people like him and people in the world. In his Cao Cao's eyes, everything is based on laws and regulations, if it is illegal, no matter who it is, he Cao Cao will also deal with it strictly, with justice!

Cao Cao ruled strictly by law, and even more strictly obeyed, so his generals and ministers rarely acted presumptuously, and his army also strictly ordered to do so, everything was orderly, and he acted by law.

Of course, Cao Cao ruled strictly according to the law, and he was not blindly rigid and rigid. For example, when Cao Cao sent troops to attack Yuan Shu, he saw that the wheat was ripe all the way when he was marching. The people in the vicinity fled because of the advance of the army, and did not dare to mow wheat. Seeing this, Cao Cao sent people from far and near to the village people, fathers and elders and officials guarding the border everywhere.

Herald Day.

"I am under the edict of the Son of Heaven to send troops to rebel and eliminate harm with the people. When the wheat was ripe, he had no choice but to raise troops, generals and colonels, all who crossed the wheat field, but trampled on them, and they were all beheaded. Military law is very strict, and you villagers do not need to be suspicious. ”

The king regards the people as the sky. The people live on food.

When the people heard the message, they all rejoiced and praised, and worshiped the dust and the road. When the officers and soldiers passed through the wheat field, they all dismounted and held the wheat with their hands, and passed by one by one, and did not dare to trample on it.

Soldiers and horses, because the food is used to resist the enemy, the food comes from the hands of the people, and the people feed on the grain. Cao Cao was like this, not only won the reputation of the people, but his soldiers were not convinced, and were willing to fight under his command.

Later, Cao Cao rode a horse and was on the way, and suddenly a large dove was startled in the field. Cao Cao's horses were frightened and ran into the wheat, trampling a large wheat field. The soldiers accompanying the march were all shocked when they saw this. Cao Cao was not in a hurry or slow, his face was calm, and he marched with the call to march to the master book, for the other trampling on the wheat field, why did he suffer?

The master of the army was shocked when he heard this, and quickly knelt down and said.

"The prime minister is the important minister of the country, and it is for the benefit of the people to recruit rebels and thieves for the country and calm the trouble. Now that all the horses are frightened, how can they be guilty? ”

Cao Cao's face was determined, and he secretly saw that many people were watching timidly from a distance, Cao Cao suddenly stared at him and shouted loudly.

"Presumptuous! I have made my own decrees, but I have transgressed them, and if I do not obey the law, how can I obey the people? ”

Cao Cao said, took out the sword leaning against the sky at his waist, and wanted to kill himself on the spot. Seeing Cao Cao raise his sword and cut his neck, the people in the distance were frightened and panicked, and they all exclaimed in unison, and they all persuaded the prime minister to stop. And Dian Wei and Xu Chu, who were beside Cao Cao, had already prepared and rushed to the rescue, and Dian Wei took Cao Cao's sword. Guo Jia, who was behind Cao Cao, hurriedly dismounted and walked forward to bow.

"The righteousness of the ancients, the law is not respected. How can the army of the prime minister and the president kill themselves? What's more, the traitor has not been punished, the princes of the world are divided, and the Han family is in need of the prime minister, how can the prime minister ignore the danger of the world because of the theory of one law! ”

As soon as Guo Jia's voice fell, all the generals and soldiers of the army behind him knelt on the ground to persuade him, and the people in the distance also rushed to kneel and persuade him.

Cao Cao pondered for a long time before he spoke.

"The existing law does not add respect to the righteousness, and the military advisor's words are reasonable, the Han family still needs the meager body of the prime minister, so I will avoid death."

Cao Cao borrowed Guo Jia's words and gently put aside the capital crime. Then, Cao Cao grabbed a bunch of hair on his head, suddenly swung his sword and cut it, and threw his own hair with a sword and shouted to the ground.

"However, the law must not be followed. I will cut the right to act as the head to show the power of the law! ”

After Cao Cao finished speaking, he sent a message to the three armies. The heralds and soldiers, holding their horses high, shouted while riding their horses.

"The prime minister practiced wheat, and he should have been beheaded and ordered, but now he will cut his hair instead."

Cao Cao cut his hair and acted as the head to enforce the decree, so the three armies were terrified and all obeyed the military order. Later, this matter was passed on by the people, and everyone who heard it praised Cao Cao's strict law.

And Chen Deng's matter, although it is a great crime of disobedience, but without some people with a careful eye, it is difficult to see that Chen Deng let Liu Bei go without permission. After all, Chen Deng planned to kill thousands of Liu Bei's soldiers, and as for why Chen Deng didn't send troops to chase Liu Bei later, he could easily push it by finding some excuses. Of course, these excuses can deceive the soldiers. It is absolutely impossible to deceive a battle-hardened general like Cao Chun, let alone Cao Cao. But Cao Cao did not pursue this, so he could not regulate it. And Cao Cao also secretly strictly ordered Cao Chun and other soldiers not to mention Chen Deng's matter, and there is a great intention to expose this matter.

As a digression, I'll leave it at this for now.

After Cao Chun finished talking to the Cao general, he was about to walk away, but Cao Chun didn't walk a few steps, as if he remembered something, and turned around and said coldly to the Cao general.

"That's right. Chen Yua

The matter of the dragon should not be mentioned by the lord's decree. You'd better keep your mouth in check, and don't let the trouble come out of your mouth, or even I won't be able to protect you when the time comes! ”

The Cao clan general shuddered suddenly, suddenly felt cold all over, and hurriedly thanked him.

"General Xie reminded that the villain will never mention this matter again in the future."

At the same time, in Xuzhou Guangling County to govern the hall.

Cao Cao sat on the top of the main hall, Guo Jia stood beside him, and Chen Deng knelt in the middle of the main hall, saluting and speaking.

"My lord, Joden's guess is correct. Liu Xuande must have led the army to retreat to Longquan County. Although Longquan County is deserted, the terrain around it is steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Therefore, Deng thought that Liu Xuande should hide here. ”

"Oh? Longquan County? The prime minister here also heard a little, this place is surrounded by mountains, and the terrain is rugged and bumpy, the army is difficult to advance and retreat, I don't know if Yuanlong can have a strategy to help the prime minister get rid of the big-eared thief? ”

Cao Cao raised his eyebrows slightly, and Chen Deng called him the lord, which means that he has surrendered. Cao Cao made a huge amount of money to win Chen Deng's loyalty. First of all, Chen Deng let Liu Bei go, if Cao Cao said that he had no grudge in his heart, it was absolutely impossible. But Cao Cao, because of his love for Chen Deng's talent, only opened his eyes to this matter, and later did not hesitate to hand over a state of land to him. Such a heroic nature and magnanimity did conquer Chen Deng.

And Chen Deng is also a person who knows the times, Cao Cao treated him like this, and he secretly swore that he would do his best for him and die. As a super strategist, Chen Deng has long practiced the ability to control his emotions and feelings. Chen Dengqiang beheaded, his affection for Liu Bei, after all, he let Liu Bei live, and he had fulfilled his heart and cleared his guilt. Since then, he and Liu Bei have only had an incompatible relationship with each other.

Chen Deng groaned for a while, his mind raced, and then he gave up.

"The terrain of Longquan County is steep, and it is easy to be confused by a large army, which will cause many unnecessary casualties. Lord, if you want to break through Longquan, you must also attack the heart! ”

"Attacking the heart? Yuanlong has a clever plan, let's talk about it quickly. ”

Cao Cao's eyes lit up suddenly, and it seemed that the entire hall was illuminated. Chen Deng bowed slightly and continued.

"My lord, you can send an army of 30,000 to surround all the surrounding mountains of Longquan County, cut off its food supply, and lead to all the water sources in the city. Longquan County is surrounded by wasteland, and can only replenish grain from other places in normal times, so there is little grain storage. As long as the grain and water in Longquan County are cut off, within half a month, these native people will definitely make trouble. In addition, there is no food and water in the city, and the soldiers under the command of the big-eared thief will definitely be panicked, and over time, the morale will be low, and the soldiers have no intention of fighting. At that time, the lord will secretly recruit these native people and alien races, so that they will be used as internal responses, so that the big-eared thief will definitely die! ”

"Hahaha! Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful!! Yuanlong is resourceful, I have your help, like a tiger with wings! The big-eared thief is really digging his own grave this time! ”

Cao Cao laughed with great joy, and said again and again, Chen Deng's plan was really vicious, as he arranged in the plan, when Longquan County, surrounded by mountains were Cao soldiers, and at the moment of the decisive battle, Liu Bei's morale was extremely low, and he had no intention of fighting, and was turned against by the natives in the city. In such a situation, how can there be a reason to live, unless Liu Bei really has the blessing of God, it may be possible to escape.

"Huh... Liu Xuande, don't blame me, I have let you live. And you don't know whether you are alive or dead, and you actually placed the soldiers and horses in Longquan County, don't you have a strategist under your command who can climb the hall! ”

Chen Deng silently sighed in his heart, with Chen Deng's wisdom, although he had no news to inquire about Liu Bei, as soon as he saw the direction of Liu Bei's retreat, and then analyzed it, he immediately guessed that Liu Bei would mostly go to Longquan County.
