Cao Song, whose name is Jugao, was a native of Peiguo County (now Bozhou City, Anhui Province), the adopted son of Cao Teng, a frequent servant of the eunuchs in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and Cao Cao's father.

This man is a very interesting person, and a lot of interesting things have happened to him.

One is his origin.

"Romance of the Three Kingdoms" once mentioned: Cao Cao's father Cao Song, whose real name is Xiahou Song, later changed his surname to Cao because he was adopted by the great eunuch Cao Teng as his adopted son.

Cao Song, from the Cao family of Maozhou, the Cao family and the Xiahou family at that time were the two largest families in Maozhou, the Cao family and the Xiahou family are both famous families in Maozhou, and the two families have been friends for generations and have maintained an in-law relationship. Xiahoudun's nephew, Xiahou Mao, also married Cao Cao's daughter.

If Cao Cao was from the Xiahou clan, how could Cao Cao marry his own daughter to his own family? Therefore, there is only one possibility, Cao Cao is not the Xiahou family.

Later, the Ancient DNA Verification Center of Fudan University, after DNA comparison, also came to the conclusion that Cao Song was from the Cao clan, so Cao Song's original surname was Cao, not Xiahou, and those were just fictions, not historical facts.

The second is his buying official.

Cao Song is Cao Teng's adopted son. relies on Cao Teng's relationship, coupled with a decent treatment of others. By the time Emperor Ling ascended the throne, he had been promoted to the position of Dasi Nong and Da Honglu, and was successively in charge of the country's financial etiquette.

But he was still not satisfied, and spent 10,000,000 gold (100 million money) to donate the post of lieutenant to himself. Not long after, when the Ten Standing Servants were in turmoil, Cao Song resigned and lived in Luoyang.

And when Cao Cao raised troops in Qian County, Cao Song, who was a famous and wealthy man in the Han Dynasty, did not support him. Instead, he took a large amount of his family property and ran to the evil country of Lang in Xuzhou to escape the war.

Cao Song has always looked down on Cao Cao and thought that he could not achieve great things. He didn't even want to stay in his hometown, because it was Cao Cao's territory, and Cao Song felt unsafe. It's really speechless.

"The Book of the Later Han Dynasty: The Biography of Cao Teng": Song and Zi Cao raised troops and refused to accompany them, but avoided chaos with the young son, and were killed by Xuzhou Assassin Shi Taoqian.

The third is his death.

Cao Song's death was because he was too rich and because of his lust.

In 193, Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou and killed countless people. Cao Song was afraid of being retaliated by Tao Qian, so in early 194, he quickly fled to Mount Tai.

"Romance of the Three Kingdoms" said: In order to appease Cao Song, Xuzhou Mu Taoqian sent Zhang Min, who was then the lieutenant, to escort him along the way. Cao Song traveled from Langya to Yanzhou, carrying more than 100 cars of gold and silver, which was really eye-catching. Zhang Min was originally a Yellow Turban general and a bandit, and he was restrained in every way under Tao Qian, so he had already had a rebellious heart. On the way to escort Cao Song, Zhang Min saw that Cao Song's convoy was full of gold and silver treasures, and he had the heart to kill people and seize treasures.

When Cao Song's brigade had already come out of Xuzhou and arrived at the boundary of Taishan County; Taishan Taishou should send someone to pick him up, but he hasn't arrived yet.

At night, when he was resting in an ancient temple, Zhang Min led his subordinates to surround the ancient temple and began to fight and rob.

Cao Song originally had the opportunity to escape over the back wall of the ancient temple, but he was too. At the age of sixty or seventy, there are many concubines. One of his favorite concubines was too fat to climb over the wall. Cao Song couldn't bear to escape alone, so he took his concubine to hide in the toilet, but was found in the toilet and hacked to death.

"The World Says New Words": Song is afraid, wears the back wall, first comes out of his concubine, concubine fat, and gets it from time to time; Song fled to the toilet, was killed with his concubine, and died behind closed doors.

It's a pity that if Cao Song hadn't spared his family wealth and used it for Cao Cao's army, he wouldn't have died for money today.

In the incident of Cao Cao's father's death, did Tao Qian really have no knowledge and became the backstabber of his subordinate Zhang Min?

It should be said that this is not the case, Tao Qian should be informed.

In 193, Cao Cao had already attacked Xuzhou. Tao Qian and Cao Cao have become mortal enemies. Will he send someone to tie up with Cao Song? I'm afraid he sent someone to kill Cao Song, right?

"Romance of the Three Kingdoms: Emperor Wu Ji": At the beginning, his great-grandfather Song, after going to the official, returned to the government, Dong Zhuo's rebellion, took refuge in Lang Evil, and was harmed by Tao Qian.

"The Book of the Later Han Dynasty and the Biography of Ying Shao": In the first year of Xingping, the former captain Cao Song and Zide entered Taishan from Langxie, and Shao sent troops to meet them, but they did not arrive, and Xuzhou Mu Tao Qian complained that Songzi Cao struck several blows, so that the light cavalry chased Song and De, and killed them at the county border.

"The Book of the Later Han Dynasty: The Biography of Cao Teng": Song and Zi Cao raised troops and refused to accompany them, but avoided chaos with the young son, and were killed by Xuzhou Assassin Shi Taoqian.

"The World Speaks New Language": Song is in Taishan Hua County. Taizu ordered Taishan to be sent to Yanzhou, but before the soldiers arrived, Tao Qian secretly sent thousands of horsemen to cover and arrest. The Song family thought it was welcome, not equipment. Humility to the soldiers, kill Taizu brother in the door. Song is afraid, wears the back wall, first out of his concubine, concubine fat, from time to time; Song fled to the toilet, was killed with his concubine, and died behind closed doors. Fearful, abandoned the official and went to Yuan Shao. Later Taizu settled in Jizhou, and he was dead when he died.

Of course, there are many other records, such as:

"The Book of the Later Han Dynasty: The Biography of Tao Qian": At the beginning, Cao Cao's father Song took refuge in Lang Evil, Shi Qian did not guard Yinping, and the soldiers killed the treasures of Song, so he attacked and killed him.

In short, Cao Cao put this pot on Tao Qian's body. After Zhang Min killed Cao Song, Cao Cao did not do his best to go to Huainan to hunt down and kill his father's enemy, but spread all his anger on Tao Qian in Xuzhou. In the name of avenging the murder of his father, he led his army to attack Xuzhou and slaughtered the city, and for a time Xuzhou was full of blood.
