Chapter 437: Cao Cao's Purge Campaign

For Liu He's arrival, the people welcomed it from the bottom of their bones, compared Liu He with Cao Cao's actions, and lifted Liu He to the sky, while Cao Cao was crushed into the dust, and fiercely attacked this person from many aspects such as rebellion against the court, greedy for flowers, lustful flowers, eunuchs, and cunning.

For these, Liu He was just listening, and he didn't take it very seriously, and at this time, he suddenly met a woman who looked to be in her twenties in the crowd, who was smiling and nodding at him.

Next, the woman stepped forward and saluted Liu Heyu and said: "The concubine Xu Yang has seen the general, and the little Xu Shu has been taken care of under the general's account, and the concubine has nothing to repay, so she can only say thank you." ”

"Madame, I'm alone in Yingchuan these days, how are you doing?" Liu He hurriedly returned the salute, and then asked with a smile.

"Fortunately, hehe, every Qingming over the years, there are always people wandering in my old house, although I don't say it, the concubine body also knows that it must be Cao Cao's person, looking for the concubine body, and then use the concubine body to blackmail the child to Cao Cao, but those people don't know at all, the concubine body has been used by the general to perform immortal magic, and has long returned to the appearance of his youth, even if he walks in front of those people, they don't know each other, so, the concubine body is nothing over the years, but these children who are looking for me everywhere have suffered......"

"Haha, Madame is humorous when she speaks", Liu He praised Xu Shu's mother, and then said with a straight face: "But to be honest, this is also He's fault, I didn't expect that Cao Cao was still thinking about dealing with Madame, fortunately Madame is safe, otherwise how to explain to Yuan Zhi in the future?" Now that my Chang'an has regained its former prosperity, it is better for me to send someone to escort my wife to Chang'an, I believe that when I get there, my wife's safety can be absolutely guaranteed. ”

"It's not necessary, Yingchuan is the homeland of the concubine, and the concubine is not willing to move elsewhere, not to mention that the concubine believes that after this battle, Yingchuan will return to the rule of the general, and at that time, Yingchuan will be as safe as Chang'an, so it makes no difference whether to go to Chang'an or not." Xu Shu's mother said with excuses.

Liu He was amazed: "Madam is worthy of being able to teach a talent like Yuan Zhi, just this talent makes many men with eyebrows ashamed of themselves." ”

Then Liu He ordered a generous reward for Xu Shu's mother, but was resolutely rejected by Xu Shu's mother, Liu He had no choice but to give up and let this smart and insistent great mother leave.

After recovering Yingchuan, Liu and An Min were finished, and immediately led their army towards Xudu.

At this time, the news had naturally reached Xudu, and the officials and soldiers loyal to Cao Cao in the city were all panicked, while those officials, soldiers and people who were interested in the Han family were all excited, they believed that after this battle, the Han thief Cao Cao could only be captured, and the revival of the Han family was hopeful.

At this time, although Cao Cao did not do the same thing on the surface, he was also worried in his heart, because the impact and shock brought by Liu He was too great, and he also heard about the scene where Liu He was welcomed in Yingchuan, he really didn't expect that he would work hard to govern Yingchuan, and he also tried his best to win over the big clan of Yingchuan, but in the end he was still no match for Liu He's first few months there.

At this time, someone suggested to Cao Cao to launch a sneak attack when Liu He's foothold was not stable, but Cao Cao vetoed it, only to see Cao Cao say: "Liu He Xiao'er has always been scheming, and he is extremely cautious, and he will definitely be prepared for our attack, so instead of losing troops in vain, it is better to stick to the city, wait and see what happens, and wait until the opponent's division is tired and retreats, which is our victory." ”

Cao Cao's opinion was unanimously approved by all the strategists, and only Xun Yu did not say a word.

Cao Cao was very strange about this, and even asked Xun Yu if he had any opinions.

I saw Xun Yu sigh and said: "Yu is just thinking, if the lord was not so impulsive and killed Dong Guifei and Liu Taiwei, Liu He would not be allowed to find an excuse, at this time we may have the opportunity to take advantage of Sun Quan and Liu Bei's battle to seize Jiangdong, but now it is too late to say anything, we can only find a way to solve the current crisis, in fact, in Yu's opinion, the lord should write to the court to ask for guilt, and beg to surrender to his position, and then promise Liu He certain benefits, maybe this battle can be avoided, and the lord can also get a chance to recuperate." ”

"Humph! What kind of person am I, Cao Cao? How can you compromise with Liu and Xiao'er? As soon as Cao Cao heard this, he knew that it was Xun Yu who asked him to compromise and make peace with Liu He, and let Liu He offer various conditions in order to seek temporary peace.

However, Cao Cao knew that the current situation was like the relationship between the Qin State and the Six Eastern States during the Warring States Period in history, the Qin State was the most powerful, and the Six Eastern States were relatively weak.

The current Liu He is equivalent to the Qin State at that time, Xun Yu's promise to give a certain benefit, that is, to cut the land and seek peace, Cao Cao did not want to follow in the footsteps of the six eastern countries, so he resolutely refused.

At the same time, Cao Cao secretly thought in his heart: "Xun Wenruo has always helped me actively come up with ideas on weekdays, no matter how powerful the opponent is, and he has never said anything to complain, but today's performance is a little different, it seems to be thinking about me, but in fact, he is a little negative, and wants to weaken my strength, his nephew is now in the hands of Liu He, and his hometown in Yingchuan is also under Liu He's rule, and the so-called Xun Eight Dragons are all serving under Liu He's account except for himself, so he actually has two hearts?" ”

Since then, Cao Cao has become suspicious of Xun Yu, and then appointed Xi Zhicai as Shang Shuling, and let Xun Yu be the captain, although his status has improved in name, but in fact, he has risen and fallen secretly, depriving Xun Yu of his real power.

Soon after, Wang Lang, who was ordered by Cao Cao to inspect the correspondence, reported to him that Cui Yan had said something in a letter to his family: "The time is the time, and there will be a change." ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he was furious in his heart, thinking that this was Cui Yan saying that the situation in Xudu was going to change, and secretly sarcastically mocked him to perish, so he ordered Cui Yan to be punished as a slave, and then sent someone to secretly investigate Cui Yan's situation, but he heard that Cui Yan's family was full of guests, and when he received guests, his beard was curled, his eyes were looking straight away, and his face was uneven, and finally he was angry: "It seems that Cui Yan must let me use a knife and saw to stop?" ”

Cao Cao then ordered Cui Yan to be killed.

At the time of Cui Yan, Cao Cao's advisor Mao Jue was upset, and one day Mao Jue saw a prisoner who was punished with a black face, and sighed: "This is the reason why the weather is dry and does not rain." ”

Cao Cao was furious when he heard this, and ordered someone to kill Mao Jue.

Seeing Cao Cao's indiscriminate killing of innocents, the celebrity Kong Rong wrote a letter of accusation, hoping that Cao Cao could unite the aspirants, resist Liu He, and unite the spearhead to the outside world, but he was also killed by Cao Cao.

Cao Cao sacrificed the murderous butcher's knife and launched another round of purges against the officials who opposed him, and for a while, all the officials in the capital were in danger, silent, and no one dared to object, Cao Cao was able to concentrate on dealing with the military and political affairs, and ordered the officers and men of the whole army to be ready for battle, and never give Liu He any chance.
