Chapter 623: Shaking Cao Cao's Lair
Only strength can speak, Zhang Yu immediately mobilized, and this time the recruited soldiers and horses were wider.
The first batch recruited 200,000.
With more territory, there will naturally be more soldiers and horses.
However, while recruiting soldiers and horses, it is also necessary to prepare for the battle to unify Youzhou.
Zhang Yu asked Taishi Cidianwei and Zhao Yun to immediately replenish their soldiers and horses, and set off for the battlefield two days later.
The establishment of 100,000 defenders of Shenyang City remains unchanged, and the war losses are made up as soon as possible.
In addition, Zhang Yu had to form a few more infantry.
These things are explained.
Tai Shici, Dian Wei and Zhao Yun set off two days later after replenishing a group of recruits.
Tai Shici was still temporarily in command of Huang Zhong's heavy cavalry.
The three of them set off, but Zhang Yu didn't follow.
Now that he has a lot of things to deal with, he has a lot to deal with.
"Haha, Cao Cao coaxed, just praised me, did you want me to let him go without giving any benefits?"
Cao Cao was relatively close and got the news early.
And before the war was over, he judged that although Zhang Yu suffered a lot of losses this time, he would be able to recover quickly, so he sent someone to Liaodong early.
As soon as the Xiongnu left, Cao Cao's envoy sent the holy decree and Cao Cao's handwritten letter.
Zhang Yu asked Cao Cao's envoy to go down to rest, and he began to think about countermeasures.
"Cao Apu, since you dare to calculate me, you have to pay the price." Zhang Yu threw the holy decree aside.
The content of the decree was to give him a promotion.
The promotion has little effect on Zhang Yu, because internally, Zhang Yu has supreme authority, and even most of the talents are cultivated by himself, so he doesn't need these to add to it at all.
Externally, it depends on strength, not because your official position is relatively large, it is more powerful.
However, how to take revenge on Cao Cao?
The territory is not next to each other, and it is obviously impossible to send troops to fight him.
"Cao Agui, if you come out to mix, you have to pay it back."
Zhang Yu thought of a way.
The method is very simple, he does not attack Cao Cao, but directly hits Liu Xie.
Liu Xie gave Cao Cao a lot of convenience, with the Son of Heaven in hand, everything was orthodox.
There are many talents who have been enveloped by him like this, and there are many talents in Cao Cao's camp, and they are all loyal to the Han Dynasty.
This is a good thing, but it can also be exploited.
Cao Cao must maintain the authority of the Son of Heaven, and Zhang Yu is to fight the Son of Heaven.
The next day, Zhang Yu solemnly summoned Cao Cao's envoy in the city lord's mansion.
"Meet General Zhang."
Cao Cao's envoy is Dong Zhao, a figure worthy of Cao Cao's subordinates, and it is also considered to send Dong Zhao.
First of all, he has a good relationship with the emperor, he is here to announce the holy decree, and the second is to represent Cao Cao.
Although in Zhang Yu's view, Liu Xie's attitude is Cao Cao's attitude, but the surface work must be done well.
Dong Zhao was exiled to Luoyang with Liu Xie all the way, and was later picked up by Cao Cao, who can be regarded as Liu Xie's close minister, and just happened to represent Liu Xie.
"Don't be polite, take me to thank Cao Gong, Cao Gong has a kind intention, and I naturally understand, so that Cao Gong doesn't have to think about it." Zhang Yu said to Dong Zhao with a smile.
Dong Zhao was secretly happy in his heart, this Zhang Yu may understand that he can't help Cao Cao, so he made a compromise.
However, Dong Zhao was still a little unnatural in his heart, and Zhang Yu didn't mention Liu Xie at all.
Dong Zhao had a few conversations with Zhang Yu, trying to steer the topic to Liu Xie's holy decree, but Zhang Yu never answered.
Dong Zhao had no choice but to find a way to say it clearly.
"General Zhang, congratulations to General Zhang on his promotion to General Wei, it is really gratifying, in the whole world, there are only a handful of people who can compare to Lord Zhang." Dong Zhao said.
Who knows, Zhang Yu's face suddenly changed and said: "Hmph, he Liu Xie is not qualified to give me an official, my official position is sealed by the first emperor." ”
Zhang Yu's face suddenly changed, which caught Dong Zhao unexpectedly.
Didn't he still talk and laugh just now, why did he suddenly change his face.
"Your Majesty is the son of today, where is there no qualification? You Zhang Yu actually called His Majesty by his name, which was a big rebellion. Dong Zhao questioned Zhang Yu sharply.
On the main hall, the changes are too fast, just now I was kind, but now I have changed the style of painting.
"Great rebellion? He Liu Xiecai was very rebellious. For hundreds of years in the Han Dynasty, the capital was either Chang'an or Luoyang, and where is Liu Xie now? In Xuchang, it is necessary to establish Xuchang as the capital, isn't this a big rebellion? Zhang Yu also questioned loudly.
Dong Zhao was choked, and Zhang Yu's questioning seemed to be correct.
Zhang Yu's questioning is of course reasonable, it was nothing that Luoyang was burned in history, but now Luoyang is fine, and it is still recovering well under Liu Bei's management, and now it is also controlled by Cao Cao.
In this case, Liu Xie will not go to Luoyang?
That Zhang Yu can question it.
Dong Zhao thought about it, and a cold sweat broke out on his back.
Zhang Yu is going to attack Cao Cao's lair.
This Xuchang is Cao Cao's lair, Liu Xie is the emperor, he went to Luoyang, Cao Cao is the prime minister, can he not go?
A group of civil and military officers under him are also official positions, can they not go to Luoyang?
Originally, it was nothing to go to Luoyang, it was the capital of the world, occupying Luoyang, the orthodoxy of the Son of Heaven was even more unspeakable, and the Son of Heaven was more prestigious.
But now, Yanzhou and Yuzhou are Cao Cao's center of gravity, and Cao Cao went to Luoyang, so his control over these places is naturally relatively weak.
And the biggest enemy he faces is Yuan Shao, he is close to Yuan Shao, and many things are easy to do.
It is convenient for him to command in time.
Once he left Xuchang for Luoyang, he did not have such a good grasp of the situation.
And to move the nest, the impact is huge.
Zhang Yu's move is too ruthless.
Dong Zhao thought of the terrible consequences, and secretly thought, this Zhang Yu had already thought about how to dig a pit, and the show of favor to Cao Cao just now was completely fake.
praised Cao Cao, and then lashed out at Liu Xie.
Dong Zhao continued to argue with Zhang Yu, but Zhang Yu was already prepared and came up with a bunch of reasons to refute him.
This made him defeated.
Dong Zhao had just returned to his residence and hurriedly wrote to Cao Cao to tell him.
But it didn't take long for his subordinates to run back and report: "Lord Dong, Zhang Yu issued an announcement, saying that the Son of Heaven was not filial, and he was charged with many crimes, and he wanted the Son of Heaven to return to Luoyang, but he did not recognize the Son of Heaven, but only recognized the official title given to him by the first emperor." ”
"Bang~"
Dong Zhao angrily threw the cup in his hand to the ground.
What he wanted to say, he couldn't say it for a while.
This is Zhang Yu's revenge, and it is directly disclosed to the whole world.
At that time, Liu Xie will not be able to return Luoyang, if Cao Cao stops it, he will be a traitor.
"Zhang Yu is ruthless enough, let's go back immediately, it's useless to stay here, Zhang Yu has planned it early in the morning."
Dong Zhao originally wanted to stay and deal around, but Zhang Yu's announcement came out, and I believe that it will soon be spread throughout the Han Dynasty.
This is definitely a test for Cao Cao.
It was so important that he had to go back immediately.
Things were as Dong Zhao expected, Zhang Yu sent a lot of fast horses to send his documents to the states last night.
It was only in Shenyang City that it was announced after summoning Dong Zhao and directly slapped him in the face.
