Chapter 549: Full of Favors
"Cao Xing's guy wants to send Zixiu back, but I want to exchange Pi, Zhang, and Zhi'er, fortunately he doesn't know the birth of Xiong'er, otherwise I'm afraid the bear who is still in swaddling clothes won't let go."
Cao Cao thumped his chest, looking like he was going to be angry and entangled to death, and Cao Hong looked at him and was extremely embarrassed.
The palms of the hands and the backs of the hands are full of meat, but it is undeniable that now it is a great disaster, a big defeat has brought Cao Cao's situation to the lowest point, and many people have lost confidence in him, such as the desertion of the pro-soldiers, even if the five-colored stick was beaten to death when the eunuch resigned at home, it was not as difficult as it is now.
In this way, Cao Ang, his own son, a first-class general, a brave and resourceful general, has become very important, at least more valuable than Cao Pi, who is the largest and still a child in the general corner, and Cao Zhi, who is the youngest and can't walk steadily.
Of course, family affection can't be compared, Cao Hong knew that Cao Cao was entangled in this, but thinking about Mrs. Bian's identity as a singer, which humiliated the Cao family from the official eunuch family, Cao Hong still couldn't help but express his opinion.
"Brother."
Cao Hong was rarely affectionately called.
"My father likes Ang'er very much!"
Cao Cao suddenly woke up like a dream, what Cao Hong said about his father and his father in his mouth are actually almost the same, the difference is only the identity of the two brothers, that is to say, the father Cao Hong said is his Cao Cao's biological father Cao Song.
Cao Song, the adopted son of Cao Teng, who often served Cao Teng among the eunuchs, had this relationship to make him rise all the way, but he had no actual action, and he was also in a state of inaction after Cao Xing entered Luoyang, and at this time he was still very embarrassed that he had just bought the official who spent money to buy one of the three princes.
Just spend money to buy officials to buy the Taiwei of the extremely human minister, you can see how rich he is, Cao Song is not only rich, but he can't govern the country, but he is quite smart in business, Cao Cao, as his son, also knows that he took advantage of the chaos in the world to hoard goods and hoard a large amount of grain and grass.
At this time, people were all linked to power and money, Cao Song had the right to have money, naturally there were a lot of fields, there were naturally many tenant farmers, and there were not a few servants.
Being able to get the support of a father who has money, food and people is simply too important for Cao Cao who is in distress.
Father and son have no overnight feud, the previous feud will be put aside, for the support of his father, Cao Pi, Zhang, and Zhi are the three sons who were originally concubines, and he Cao Cao himself has no shortage of sons, especially concubines.
——
Puyang, the county of Dongjun of Yanzhou, as the seat of the county, is the most prosperous city in Dongjun, because it is located north of the Yellow River, just like a part of the northern part of the Yellow River in Qingzhou Plain County, and the entire north of the Yellow River is actually occupied by Yuan Shao's Zhao army.
Puyang is the largest city on the front line to resist the Qi army, and it can be described as a military town, with a perennial garrison of more than 10,000 troops, and now the war is imminent, and the garrison has reached 20,000.
It was one of the reinforcements that Cao Cao valued during the Battle of Guandu, but Cao Cao was defeated too simply, and he didn't wait, and it would be difficult for the Zhao army to wait for reinforcements from Puyang in the future!
To be more precise, it should be Puyang who needs reinforcements.
Of course, as your own territory, there is no need not to enter the city to rest, but when these flags are under the banner of Zhao and Chu, it is a little difficult to enter the city with the banner of Zhao.
In this Zhao-Chu coalition army, the number exceeds 100,000, but the Chu army only accounts for a small part, only 20,000, but the chief general of the Chu army is the commander of the coalition army, just because the chief general of the Chu army is not a bystander, it is Cao Xing.
Sitting on the main tent seat of the coalition army, Cao Xuan looked at the scribe standing below, and the woman holding a four- or five-year-old child next to him:
"Full of pets, I didn't expect us to meet in this situation! I have long admired you for your strict law enforcement, and you are called a cool official by the people of Yanzhou, I have never heard of you serving under Cao Cao in the past, why did you act as Cao Cao's lobbyist today? ”
Full of pets looked serious, and did not show any uneasiness for Cao Xing's ridicule, and returned truthfully:
"I was infected with a life lawsuit, so I abandoned the official and returned to Shanyang, although Shanyang and Peiguo are two states, but they are adjacent, Cao Mengde raised troops to fight against the Yellow Turban and then returned to his hometown to raise troops, and I had some intersections, and I can be regarded as friends!
A few days ago, Cao Mengde's friend sent the woman and the child beside me to my home, and wrote a letter, asking me to do one thing for him, and that was to contact you about the exchange of prisoners. ”
I said how could Man Pet get involved with Cao Cao, it turns out that there is such a trick, so since I saw Man Pet, and he is not Cao Cao's command, he is just helping out as a friend, how can he not let this quasi-top talent leave.
Cao Xuan thought in his heart, and laughed out loud:
"Haha! When you tried to serve as the county magistrate of Gaoping, Zhang Bao, the county governor, was corrupt and bribed, and was arrested by you.
Cool officials, really cool officials!
How about coming under my command, my Chu army needs a cool official like you to strengthen the military discipline of the whole army! ”
Man Zhong did not refuse, nor did he show much excitement about Cao Xing's olive branch, but said very responsibly:
"There is a task in the next body, and I dare not think about anything else if the task is not completed!
Chu Hou, standing next to me is Mrs. Bian's third son Cao Zhi and his nurse, Cao Mengde has shown full sincerity, so when can Cao Ang return to Cao Mengde's side? ”
Cao Cao really did the thing of exchanging three sons for a son, and he was still a great talent, Cao Zhi, the author of the seven-step poem, I really don't know that Cao Cao knew that this child was still alive when he grew up, his favorite son, and almost did something for him to abolish the long and young, I don't know what Cao Cao will think after he knows!
Cao Xing thinks it's funny when he thinks about it, but when Cao Zhi arrives here, there is no matter what happens in the next seven steps of poetry, and when Cao Cao's most ambitious son Cao Pi arrives, it means that the founding emperor of Wei will never have wings.
"Full of favor, this is easy to say, after the three sons arrive, Cao Ang can naturally meet Cao Cao's father and son!"
Man Chong was not satisfied with Cao Xing's answer, but shook his head and said:
"Three for one is still a loss, after all, they are all sisters-in-law, so Meng De hopes that you can return Xiahoudun as well."
"It can't be!"
"How could it be?"
"Xiahoudun has already gone south by boat!"
Cao Xingman's pet revolves around the prisoner exchange between Cao Ang and Xiahoudun, and there is a posture of sitting on the ground and paying back the money, the two are arguing like street vendors, one bite is impossible, but no one takes the initiative to end the conversation, which means that there is still talk about everything.
The two of them seem to have forgotten that they are now in Puyang, Puyang surrounded by the Qichu coalition army.
