Donggun, Taishou House.

After Cao Cao entered the East County, the means were hard, and he quickly gained a firm foothold in the East County, according to the plan of Xi Zhicai, after Cao Cao gained a foothold in the East County, he and the Jibei Prime Minister Bao Xin, Yanzhou Zhizhong engaged in Wan Qian, as well as Yanzhou Farewell, the main book and other officials set up a relationship, of course, Liu Dai also served as the Yanzhou Assassin History, Cao Cao naturally could not show his grandeur, but just had a good relationship with the people under the command of Liu Dai, the Yanzhou Assassin History.

In the study, Cao Cao was handling official business.

Cao Cao held a silk book in his hand, all about the news of Jizhou, seeing that the Wuhuan soldiers were repelled by Wang Lei, Cao Cao's mouth hooked a smile, and said in his heart: "Good look, a thief like Wuhuan should be defeated!" ”

Continue to look down, and when he saw that the spies planted in Jizhou analyzed that Wang Lei was short of food and grass, Cao Cao frowned, worried about whether Wang Lei could block the attacks of Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan.

For Cao Cao, Jizhou remains divided, which is undoubtedly the best situation.

The reunification of Jizhou, Cao Cao was under too much pressure.

Cao Cao then looked down, and saw that after the Qingzhou Yellow Turban thief Guan Hai led his troops to attack Jizhou, he chuckled in his heart, the lack of grain and grass was already very unfavorable to Wang Lei, and now there was Guan Hai to stir up the situation, and the situation was even worse.

In this battle, Wang Lei is in danger.

After reading the news sent back by the spies, Cao Cao thought about it for a while and sent someone to invite Xi Zhicai.

It didn't take long for Xi Zhi to come to the study, and he sat down after saluting.

Cao Cao rubbed his sour face, paused for a moment, and said: "Sir, the war in Jizhou has changed again, Wang Lei led the troops to repel Wuhuan, however, the Yellow Turban thief Guan Hai in Qingzhou was bewitched by Yuan Shao, and has led the army into Jizhou, according to the analysis of the current situation in Jizhou, Wang Lei's logistics have problems, there is not enough food and grass, this battle, Wang Lei is going to lose!" ”

Xi Zhicai thought for a while and said: "My lord, if Wang Lei is defeated and Yuan Shao's army sweeps Jizhou, it is not a good thing for you, and the divided Jizhou is the most beneficial to the lord!" ”

Cao Cao nodded and said, "What advice does Mr. have!" ”

Xi Zhicai pinched the short beard under his chin and said: "Wang Lei is short of food, the lord can temporarily lend some food to Wang Lei, so that Wang Lei can tide over the current difficulties!" ”

"Lend grain to Wang Lei, there are three benefits!"

"First, the lord borrowed grain to let Wang Lei tide over the difficulties, this is a charcoal in the snow, Wang Lei will be grateful to the lord, and when we encounter difficulties in the future, Wang Lei will not sit idly by, and he will return the favor and help the lord!"

"Second, let Wang Lei block Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan, the situation of Jizhou division can be maintained, and the north will be chaotic, so that we will have more time to rise, and we can also lay the foundation for the capture of Jizhou in the future!"

"Third, with the combat effectiveness of the army under Wang Lei, after having food, Guan Hai's Yellow Turban Thieves will definitely not be able to get benefits, and Guan Hai will be dragged down, the strength of Qingzhou's Yellow Turban Thieves will be weakened, and we have a better opportunity, this is a golden opportunity given by God to the lord!"

Xi Zhicai's words are conclusive, revealing an unquestionable tone.

Cao Cao asked, "What chance!" "Cao Cao understands Xi Zhicai, and what Xi Zhicai said is absolutely reliable.

Xi Zhicai said that the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is absolutely real.

Xi Zhicai lowered his voice and said slowly: "Before Liu Dai defeated the Qingzhou Yellow Turban thief, he was quite arrogant, thinking about continuing to attack Qingzhou and expanding his power, we operated secretly, and also urged Liu Dai to continue to attack, because the officials under Liu Dai strongly opposed, this matter was temporarily shelved, resulting in Liu Dai not going to Qingzhou, now Guan Hai left with the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, the power of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban is weakened, it is the best opportunity to attack Liu Dai again, the last time Liu Dai has wavered, this time it will be successful!" ”

When Cao Cao heard this, his heart couldn't help beating faster, and there was a strange look on his slightly dark face, indicating that Cao Cao was not at peace in his heart.

"Who can persuade Liu Dai!" Cao Cao asked.

Xi Zhicai thought for a while and replied: "Liu Dai's governance is engaged in Wan Qian, this person is greedy for money and profit, he is a person with great ambitions and talents, Guan Hai led the troops to leave Qingzhou, Wan Qian has the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and he will definitely not let it go!" ”

Cao Cao stroked his palm and said: "Wealth and danger are sought, leave it to Mr. to operate at this time, and don't leak it out!" ”

"Understood!"

Xi Zhicai nodded, turned around and went down to prepare.

Next, Cao Cao asked people to invite Chen Gong, historical records record that Chen Gong was Cao Cao's appointment as the East County Tai Punctuality, so he served Cao Cao, and at present, Chen Gong and Cao Cao have not turned against each other.

Chen Gong came to the study, bowed and sat down.

Cao Cao had a smile on his face and ordered: "Gongtai (Chen Gongzi), Wang Lei was besieged by Wu Huan, Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zhan and Qingzhou Yellow Turban thief Guan Hai, Wang Lei's troops can resist, but the grain and grass are insufficient, I am afraid that I can't stop the siege of these parties, you mobilize 30,000 stone of grain, and immediately send the grain to Ye County!" ”

Dongjun is the place where Yanzhou and Jizhou Wei County border, and it is not long to rush from Dongjun to Ye County.

Chen Gong is also a smart person, after listening to Cao Cao's words, he quickly reacted, and couldn't help but praise: "The lord's hand is exquisite, Wang Lei is probably grateful to the lord!" ”

Cao Cao smiled: "I've worked hard for you this time, I'll give you another task!" ”

Chen Gong said: "Please make it public!" ”

Cao Cao said solemnly: "Let's go to Ye County, carefully investigate the situation in Jizhou, and see which people are dissatisfied with Wang Lei, and which people are obedient to Wang Lei. ”

Chen Gong understood, blinked, and said, "Please rest assured, the palace will definitely complete the task!" ”

……

Ye County, the official office of Du Ji, the main book.

Du Ji had a headache on his face, his head was made big by recent events, and he saw the latest news every day, all of which were about urging food, and it was the same news every day, and his mood could be imagined.

Jia Xu sat in the room, wandering gracefully, without much worry.

Du Yi stared at Jia Xu and complained: "Mr. Wenhe, if there is a crisis in Jizhou, aren't you worried?" The lord appointed you to stay in Ye County and preside over the overall situation! ”

Jia Xu smiled and said: "Ye County is good, even if Guan Hai wants to fight in, isn't there still a period of time, he is still in the territory of Qinghe Country, and he wants to go all the way south, it's still early, don't worry!" ”

Du Yi rolled his eyes and almost fainted with anger.

"Food is scarce, Mr. Wenhe is intelligent, and he should think of a way!" Du Ji said again.

Jia Xu said: "Lord Bookkeeper! Being in charge of grain, grass, and equipment is a logistical thing, not something I'm good at, you asked me to think about the problem of food, and I found the wrong person! Of course, I can go, I will take the soldiers to collect food from house to house, but you don't agree to such a method, just order to buy food, but it will have little effect! ”

The corners of Du Ji's mouth twitched, and he let out a long sigh in his heart.

"Report!"

A soldier walked in quickly, saluted Du Qi and Jia Xu, and then reported: "Lord Bookkeeper, Lord Zhou Mu led the soldiers to withdraw from Julu County, and has arrived outside Ye County!" ”

"Oh, the lord is back!"

Du Yi raised his eyebrows, asked the soldiers to retreat, and said, "Mr. Wenhe, get ready to greet you!" ”
