[Full text reading. ] In the first year of Jian'an - summer and August, Cao C, the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, took his fourth son Cao Zhi, under the escort of the 'tiger and leopard ride', inspected the banks of the Yellow River, inspected the garrison, and boosted morale.

White Horse, Yanjin, Guandu, known as the 'Yellow River three major Jin', is also a place where soldiers must fight, the terrain of White Horse is dangerous, the position is convex, like a sword, Yanjin City is solid, easy to defend and difficult to attack, more like a shield, as for Guandu, the surface is mediocre, the position is relatively backward, but it is a key, a key to open the gate of Xuchang!

Two hundred miles south of Guandu, is the temporary capital of the Han Dynasty Xuchang, in other words, the two depend on each other, life and death, guarding Guandu, is equivalent to guarding the gateway of Xuchang, once Guandu is lost, Xuchang will be **** in front!

"The last general will see the Prime Minister, I have seen the fourth son, I have traveled hard, the reception banquet has been prepared, please go into the city to rest!"

Knowing that the prime minister's father and son were coming, Cao Ren, the official commander of the guard, led his generals out of the city for thirty miles to greet him, and mobilized 10,000 ironclad elite soldiers to fortify along the way.

Cao Ren, the word Zixiao, Cao C's brother of the same clan, has a strict personality, good bow horses, has courage and strategy, and has the demeanor of a general, together with Cao Hong, Xiahou Dun, and Xiahou Yuan, known as the 'four generals of the clan', deeply trusted by Cao C, and was ordered to garrison the governor along the Yellow River to monitor every move of the Yuan clan in Hebei!

"Huh...... The military formation is as powerful as a tiger, the queue is as neat as a goose, the armor is excellent, the morale is like a rainbow, and Zixiao has trained an elite soldier! ”

The military formation is like iron, the flag is like a cloud, Cao C looked up to the sky and laughed, he was very satisfied with this clan brother's ability to command the army, his eyes turned to his son, and in the face of the compliment of the clan general, how would he deal with it?

"Zijian visits his uncle - both civil and military, and the majesty lasts forever...... Ladies and gentlemen, the saddle horses are hard working and loyal! ”

Cao Zhi didn't dare to call himself the son of the prime minister, immediately knelt on the ground, returned the salute with the gift of his son and nephew, and saluted the surrounding soldiers, with appropriate words and thoughtful etiquette, which made people feel like a spring breeze!

"The last general is terrified, and he doesn't dare to be such a big gift as the fourth son!" Cao Ren hugged his fists in return, his demeanor was very respectful, and his good impression of Cao Zhi in his heart also increased a lot, and he even had the intention of making friends!

This is not surprising, people will have some selfishness, the relationship between Cao Ren and Cao Zhi is very delicate, called uncle and nephew, in fact, there are monarchs and ministers, and some things are well known!

Since the death of the eldest prince Cao Ang, the position of the heir of the Cao Ying Group has been vacant, and the remaining dozen or so sons in the Prime Minister's Mansion have been the most outstanding in terms of literary talent, martial arts, and character, and Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, and Cao Zhi are the best, and the world has speculated that among the three brothers, there will inevitably be a hidden dragon!

The question is, which of the three is it?

Cao C's heir is the future lord of Cao Ying Group, and may even become a generation of kings, if he takes refuge in the past as soon as possible, it is equivalent to buying an insurance, and the glory and wealth of future generations will be guaranteed!

On the contrary, if you make the wrong choice and put the bet on a 'pseudo-dragon', the end can be imagined.

This is a shocking gamble related to life and death, honor and disgrace, and the most exciting thing is that it is not okay not to gamble, otherwise after the prince takes the throne, you are ready to sit on the cold bench for a lifetime!

Just when the world was hesitating in their hearts and didn't know how to bet, Cao C suddenly inspected the pass, inspected the people, and didn't bring any other sons, but brought the fourth son Cao Zhi.

Cao Ren, as a clan general, and with heavy troops, has both the right to speak and the strength to support the selection of the group's heir, and his opinion also represents the opinion of the Cao clan to a large extent, which is a very important force!

Of course, Cao C is known as 'J Xiong in troubled times', he is scheming, the best at scheming, no one dares to guess his mind, and if he is not careful, it will be a disaster of death, therefore, a group of civil and military personnel temporarily chose to wait and see, and the matter of establishing a prince, before the situation is clear, no one will easily express his position!

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

After some conversation, Cao C, surrounded by the generals, hit a horse and entered Guandu, and after a brief meal, he immediately inspected the defense, the construction of barriers, the deployment of troops, and the storage of grain and grass...... No matter how big or small, they all carefully checked it, knew it in their hearts, and climbed the high platform to look out for the enemy's situation, Yuan Tan's 100,000 horses were stationed on the other side of the river!

The three major ferries of the Yellow River, Cao C's last inspection of Guandu, is not to despise this place, on the contrary, in his strategic layout, a few years later, a major battle related to life and death will be launched near Guandu, take precautions, how can you not prepare more!

"Huh...... Light and unprepared, big and useless, Yuan Tan's ability to arrange troops is three points worse than that of his father, the Yuan family is really not as good as the generation! ”

After looking at it for a long time, Cao C couldn't help but show a sneer, the Yuan army on the opposite side looked strong, but in fact he was just a paper tiger, a small strategy, and it could be broken in a battle!

Laughing for a while, Cao C's brows furrowed again, as the so-called 'the authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear', he sees other people's sons as D If he watches the fire, but his son sees the flowers in the fog, what is the ability of Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, and Cao Zhi, will they be like Yuan Tan, and they will lose their family business sooner or later?

"Your Excellency Prime Minister--Xiliang Urgent!" During the round, a messenger ran briskly up to the high platform, knelt on one knee and saluted, handing over a military newspaper in both hands!

"Haha! …… In the battle of Kushuichuan, the main force of Yuan's army was defeated, Yan Liang and Wen Chou were killed, and the strategist was captured alive - Fengji, and the twelve counties of Xiliang were all in his hands...... Well...... Xiao Lang is injured? ”

After reading the military report, Cao C was first overjoyed and then shocked, his face was half Y and half sunny, his expression was constantly changing, and finally he looked at the West and pondered for a long time!

Happily, their own side won a complete victory, swept away all the forces in Xiliang, and even the 150,000 Yuan army was defeated, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Feng Ji, Hebei's three major cadres, two dead and one captured, which is equivalent to cutting off Yuan Shao's three fingers, greatly weakening the strength of the Hebei group, and greatly helping the decisive battle in the future!

Shockingly, his confidant Xiao Yi, the invincible 'ghost-faced Xiao Lang', actually capsized in the small river ditch, and was injured by the enemy general Jiang Qi with an arrow, and he needed to meditate and recuperate for a period of time, and he could not return to Xuchang in the short term!

Thousands of troops are easy to get, but one general is hard to find, Xiao Yi's position in Cao C's heart, just like Han Gaozu-Liu Bang looked at Han Xin, the full battalion of generals is unmatched, he would rather lose a state of land than his henchmen and beloved generals!

Then again, what is Xiao Yi's skills, Cao C knows it clearly, it is really cunning as a fox, fierce as a wolf, brave as a tiger, he can be called a natural general, how many vicious battles, dangerous battles, and death battles have been fought, he has never injured a single hair, how could he be injured by a little-known Jiang Qi S, there must be something strange in it?

Thinking of this, Cao C picked up the military newspaper and looked at it carefully, the first time he looked at the content, the second time, he saw the deep meaning behind it, as the so-called words are born from the heart, check a person's handwriting, you can know a lot of things, this is also a method for J Xiong to move people's hearts!

"The pen walks the dragon and snake, the power penetrates the back of the paper, between the lines, with a killing atmosphere, only a person who is full of spirit, qi and spirit can write such a strong handwriting......"

After checking, Cao C also guessed the ** score, Xiao Yi was not injured at all, as for the reason for his reluctance to return to Xuchang, it was very simple - "Smart man, I don't want to stole my own hands!" ”

"The Governor of the Metropolitan is injured, this matter cannot be underestimated, the child is not talented, he is willing to bring medicine to Xiliang, visit the disease, condolences for the hard work, and ask for the father's permission!"

After receiving the letter, Cao Zhi's face was full of anxiety, for a long time, he and Xiao Yi had a very good relationship, regarded him as a brother, caring, and unpretentious!

"Hehe, Wu'er rest assured, Xiliang doesn't need to go, and the doctor doesn't need to send it, as long as you send two herbs over, you can guarantee it for your father, and the medicine will be cured in one day!" Cao C patted his son's shoulder, but he didn't point out the truth, there are some things that you must understand by yourself!

"What kind of medicine is so miraculous that it can be cured in one day?"

"Huh...... Safflower, angelica! ”

Medicinal materials are divided into monarchs and ministers, master and slave, each in its own place, must not be used indiscriminately, safflower is the main medicine, but also the famous 'tiger and wolf medicine', sex Y cold, killing blood, that is, can save people, can also kill, it depends on how to use!

In Cao C's heart, Xiao Yi is his own divine sword, used to break the formation and kill the enemy, the sword is invincible, such a divine weapon cannot be used lightly, let alone used to do dirty work, it is a tyrannical thing!

Cao C's meaning of sending safflower and angelica is to tell Xiao Yi that you are blindly a tiger and wolf medicine, and the old man will not use it indiscriminately, come back with peace of mind, and someone will naturally do Xuchang's affairs!

In addition, red also has an auspicious meaning, this is a hint that Xiao Yi, come back to marry the old man's daughter, don't mess with flowers and grass outside, you are playing with women and giving birth to children in Xiliang, the old man knows it clearly, and he hasn't settled accounts with your kid yet!

After sending the envoy, Cao C immediately sent an order to Xu Chu: "Tiger and leopard riders - people do not take off their armor, horses do not leave the saddle, ready to set off at any time - return to Xuchang!" ”

Excalibur can only be used to destroy enemies, and if you want to do dirty work, you need a 'dung fork'!
