"Alas!" Cao Cao, who returned to the house, couldn't help but sigh as soon as he sat down. He rushed all the way back to Qian County from Ruoyang with enthusiasm, but where did he think that the first obstacle was not from the county guards from all over the country, but his father? How big a blow this incident had on Cao Cao.

"Perhaps, I don't have any talent for statecraft? I can't even persuade my father......" Cao Cao casually picked up the wine on the table and poured it up, while pouring it, while reviewing his past experience, the more he thought about it, the more it seemed to be the case. "In the early years, he was appointed as the lieutenant of the northern part of Luoyang, relying not on talent but on family relations. Although it seems to be doing a good job, it is only doing according to the law, and the reason why others don't dare is only because they don't have my background......"

"Later, no matter what Dou Wu or He Jin's proposal was, it was not taken seriously, even if it was the only combat exploit that could be used, it was just following behind Zikang." Thinking of this, Cao Cao suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, "Haha! Come to think of it, any person who changes to my position will do better than me! Ha ha! I think I often think of myself as a master of statecraft...... Amusing! It's ridiculous! With that, he poured a sip of liquor into his mouth again.

"Lord, what's wrong with you?" An exclamation came from the inner room, and then I saw Bian Rou, the concubine of Cao Cao's previous concubine, walking out quickly, after seeing Cao Cao's appearance, he suddenly covered his small mouth and widened his eyes, and then reacted, and hurriedly persuaded, "Lord, you drank too much......

"Haha, where did I drink too much? I'm just depressed! Cao Cao laughed when he heard this, and then said something about the unhappiness in Balabala's heart and Bian Rou. But he wasn't worried that Bian Rou would say it, after all, a person who was just a maid, even if he said it, who would believe it? And unlike Ding Lan, Bian Rou's temperament is gentle and virtuous, and her performance over the years has made Cao Cao very obsessed and pampered.

It's just that, after listening to Cao Cao's words, Bian Rou grabbed Cao Cao's wine jug and put it aside, and then looked at Cao Cao with a serious face and said, "Lord, you are not bad at all, if the lord is really useless, then will Li Junhou and Liu Yuanjun have a relationship with the lord?" Will Zixiao, Yuanrang and others admire you so much? ”

"Uh......" Looking at Bian Rou in front of him, Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, because he had never imagined that gentle and virtuous, no matter what unreasonable demands he made, Bian Rou would do it one by one, and the weak woman would have such a side.

Seeing this, Bian Rou suddenly pulled Cao Cao into the inner room, came to the side of the bed in Cao Cao's confusion, and then laboriously pulled out a box from under the bed. When I opened it, it was some jewelry money.

"This ......" Cao Cao looked at the yellow and white things in the box dumbfounded, and then looked at Bian Rou in disbelief, because he seemed to know what Bian Rou wanted to do.

But saw Bian Rou pointing to the things in the box, then looked at Cao Cao and said, "Lord, here are some of the money saved by the servant in previous years, and there are also your rewards from the lord, for the sake of ...... if you need money urgently" Bian Rou said this, seemingly a little embarrassed, but then looked at Cao Cao and said, "Lord, you are very kind to the servant, and the servant can repay the lord, and the only one who can repay the lord is ......"

Before Bian Rou's words were finished, her delicate lips were directly blocked by the excited Cao Cao, and then she listened to a coquettish cry, but it was Cao Cao who hugged Bian Rou up, "It is my Cao Mengde's blessing to have Rou'er as a concubine!" There is nothing to repay for the time being, so I can only pay for it~" Cao Cao smiled strangely, and immediately pressed it under Bian Rou's coquettish voice.

An hour later, Cao Cao walked out refreshed, and the decadent and helpless look on his original face no longer knew where he had been thrown. I saw him appear in front of Cao Song again, and said to him respectfully, "Father, the child has made up his mind, if the father is unwilling to participate in it, you can take Ade to Langya to live in seclusion." ”

"You ......" Cao Song was stunned when he heard this, but seeing Cao Cao's firm eyes, Cao Song understood that his son would not listen to his persuasion.

"Well, hopefully, you can succeed, I will take half of the property." Cao Song sighed.

"Thank you, Father!" Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard this, he was already ready to be taken away by Cao Song. After all, he knew how greedy his father was.

Subsequently, Cao Cao immediately gathered his clansmen, and at the same time invited people from the Xiahou family and the Ding family to explain his plans.

"Brother don't say it anymore! The decision of the clan brother is the decision of us! Our brothers, swear to follow our brothers to the death! Cao Ren didn't wait for Cao Cao to finish speaking, and shouted directly.

"On behalf of the Xiahou clan, I am willing to follow the lord!" Xiahoudun's expression was even simpler, and he directly pulled Xiahoulan to kneel on one knee and worship Cao Cao as the lord.

Seeing this, although the people of the Ding family were unwilling, two of the three families in Qian County agreed, if they did not agree, life would not be easy. Not to mention, the Ding family and the Cao family are still in-laws.

Immediately, Cao Cao sold his property to raise villagers and buy weapons, and at the same time directly listed Dong Zhuo's crimes in the name of the Three Princes, sent letters to various prefectures and counties to assassinate him, and called on everyone to raise troops to fight against Dong Zhuo.

Yes, he didn't discuss with Li Yi first, because after being awakened by Bian Rou, Cao Cao regained his confidence again. "Can't I, Cao Mengde, recruit people?" Cao Cao doesn't believe it! At the same time, he personally went to Yanzhou Chen Liuhui to meet Zhang Miao, who was known as the Eight Chefs in the past, and was friends with Yuan Shao and Cao Cao. Cao Cao believes that Zhang Miao will never refuse.

And the result did not disappoint Cao Cao, after learning of Cao Cao's intentions and what he had done, Zhang Miao immediately agreed to join the coalition army, and at the same time took the initiative to help Cao Cao send people to various places to persuade him. What made Cao Cao even happier was that the Wei family, a giant merchant living in Chenliu Xiangyi County, also sent someone to contact him after hearing about this incident, promising to fund Cao Cao's army.

By the end of November, Wang Kuang, the county guard of Taishan, the county guard Qiao Mao of Dongjun, Zhang Miao, the county guard of Chen Liu, and Zhang Miao's brother, Zhang Chao, the Taishou of Guangling, responded to Cao Cao's call, and at the same time, Cao Cao, Zhang Miao, and Qiao Mao visited Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou, and made them join the combined army.

Well, Liu Dai really didn't want to join, after all, no matter what Dong Zhuo was, he was also a Hanchen appointed by the emperor. Now that the emperor doesn't have any orders, he is raising troops to clear the king's side? Looks like it's no different from rebellion, right? It's a pity that the three counties under his command have joined, so what can Liu Dai do even if he doesn't want to?

However, these results did not satisfy Cao Cao, "Zikang, Benchu, don't let me down!" Cao Cao looked at the sky and thought to himself.
