Chapter 145: Jinan in the Past

"Meng De (lord)!" The crowd was shocked and shouted in unison.

Seeing this, Cao Ren Cao Chun thought that Cao Cao's war horse under his crotch had stumbled, and without thinking, he grabbed the horse's belly and chased after him in an instant.

"Wait for the rest! Watch and see what happens. Guo Jia saw that the soldiers behind him also had the intention of rushing forward, and immediately stopped everyone with a shout.

"The army is yours to be handed over!" Guo Jia said to Xun You with a sideways look, and quickly chased after him.

Cao Cao rode his horse, raised his hand and shouted: "A certain Chen left Cao Cao, Cao Mengde, you have to wait for Hugh to release arrows...... Cao Cao seemed to be fearless, and what was even more amazing was that the Yellow Turban Army was in chaos, and the soldiers exchanged heads and ears.

"What a gut! The soldiers had to let him go with their arrows. Guan Hai's eyes narrowed slightly, and he sneered.

The Yellow Turban soldiers who had already bent their bows and arrows withdrew their bows and arrows one after another, puzzled by their meaning, but more soldiers were looking forward to it, as if they were very curious about Cao Cao's appearance.

Although Cao Cao was fearless, the second general of the Cao family behind him, and Guo Jia, who followed closely behind, pinched a cold sweat for Cao Cao.

Seeing that the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army had put away their bows and arrows, Guo Jia frowned slightly, suddenly smiled faintly, and said in his heart: "The enemy leader Guan Hai is too whimsical, it can be said that he is not greedy enough to swallow an elephant, not to mention that you Guan Hai is not even a snake, and Cao Cao is not a real dragon, but can also be called a unicorn." ”

"I didn't expect Cao Cao to be a popular figure in Qingzhou when he was young, but now he has long since changed, but I didn't expect that he still has such prestige in the Qingzhou Yellow Turban." Guo Jia hurriedly walked to Cao Cao's side, and as far as the eye could see, there were tens of thousands of people in the mighty Yellow Turban army, and there was no end in sight, but most of the elderly soldiers in front of him looked at Cao Cao with no hostility, but a faint sense of guilt......

Syllable!

Cao Cao bowed his hand, bowed in all directions, and shouted loudly: "The people of Qingzhou are loved, Cao is deserved, and I thank you all the generals for not killing them, dare to ask which general is the leader, please come forward and talk about it." ”

"Shooting is a plan to attack the heart, and the grasp between the square inches is just right, which not only allows the soldiers to understand your painstaking efforts, but also does not let me and other generals feel angry." Guan Hai thought about it in his heart, sneered, rode forward, bowed his hand slightly, and said: "I have admired General Cao's name for a long time, I really have both courage and strategy, and I can meet today. I don't know what General Cao has to say? ”

Cao Cao arched his hand and said: "I don't dare to see the teaching, a certain general is a heroic person, so he will get straight to the point, Cao has a good word, and he is willing to listen to the general." ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it!" Guan Hai waved his right hand forward and listened quietly.

Cao Cao said: "If Cao's expectations are good, the general's remaining grain and grass is not much, but Zang Ba has raised troops to capture Qingzhou, cutting off the general's retreat, Xuzhou Tao Qian with tens of thousands of armor, but also waiting for the general, and Yanzhou Jianbi Qingye, is also the army of the general who has no food, within a few months, the general is in danger, the general might as well disarm and return to the field, strike the army and say peace, Cao has a life guarantee, will make Yanzhou people pay for the grain and the land has been peaceful. ”

"Our army has one million soldiers, and there are less than 50,000 soldiers and horses in Yanzhou, and most of them are private soldiers of the family lords, which are like scattered sand, although Dongjun is strong, it can be broken in half a month!" Guan Hai sneered, and said: "The general was in Jinan in the past, destroying the altar of the Liu family of the Han family, which is in line with the Taiping Heavenly Dao that my Yellow Turban Army believes, the Han family is dead, the general should not be confused by the Han family, let alone be the enemy of our army, the general should join forces with our army and work together to overthrow the Han family, if so, wouldn't it be happy?" ”

Cao Cao said: "In the past, the royal family of the Han family set up an altar in Jinan to bewitch the people, which was really to collect money, and a certain was the prime minister of Jinan, and he should be destroyed, but he did not have the heart of rebellion, just to relieve the people of the south and the fire and water, even if he died, Cao would not be with the general." ”

Guan Hai is also naΓ―ve, when Cao Cao crusaded against Dong Zhuo in the past, he released "All the kings go north, and a certain goes west." How could there be an overthrow of the Han Dynasty and cut off the ambition?

There are no common ideals, there are common interests, Guan Hai admires Cao Cao very much, and even more admires Guo Jia under Cao Cao, he knows in his heart that if he can accept these two people, it will be easy to overthrow the Han family or cede land and dominate in the future.

This is also the reason why he did not order his soldiers to shoot Cao Cao with arrows.

Guan Hai said: "General Cao and Yanzhou people are friends, if you and I should be together, Yanzhou is at your fingertips, at that time, the counterattack on Qingzhou is also like exploring the bag, going south to take Xuzhou, and reaping the rich land of the Central Plains, then the hegemony can be achieved, and the general is one person under ten thousand people, isn't it happy?" ”

"The Tao is different, and they do not conspire with each other." Cao Cao said again: "If the general insists on fighting to the death, Cao should accompany him to the end!" ”

"General Cao, let's go, we don't want to be your enemy."

"The general's kindness in the past has never been forgotten, but the general has few soldiers, and he is not an opponent for us."

"We are also forced to be helpless, Qingzhou is in a great drought, natural disasters continue, the family is a gatekeeper, the squire and rich businessmen take the opportunity to make huge profits, Qingzhou is thousands of miles away, we are only for self-protection, and we don't want to be enemies with the general."

The older soldiers in the Yellow Turban Army immediately began to advise, they had heard of Cao Cao's name, and some of the soldiers were even from Jinan, and they didn't want to be enemies of Cao Cao.

Guo Jia saw that Cao Cao's prestige in the heart of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban was so high, and he had mixed feelings in his heart, and couldn't help but think of what Cao Cao did when he was in Jinan, Qingzhou.

Guo Jia remembered that when Cao Cao was the prime minister of Jinan, Jinan was a mess of black smoke and miasma, and at that time the officials of Jinan, the family gate valve built temples to take the opportunity to collect money and collect the people's fat and people's ointment.

If the people don't pay it, or they can't hand it over, those family lords or officials of all sizes will kill people, and it is the collusion of officials and businessmen, and the people will be miserable and have nowhere to redress their grievances.

At this time, Cao Cao became the prime minister of Jinan.

Don't look at Cao Cao's usual flying eagle lackeys, and even some of them are not doing their jobs, but he does do practical things for the people, and he pays attention to the rule of law, with clear rewards and punishments.

Legend has it that at that time, the king of Jinan broke the law and let Cao Cao chop it up......

For ordinary people, a society governed by the rule of law can be described as a paradise and a hell compared with a society in which the powerful are superior to others and trample on the lives of ordinary people at will.

Cao Cao did this back then, and it was naturally the people who benefited, but he also offended the family gate lords, and he was assassinated many times when he was in Jinan.

Cao Cao himself is strong in martial arts, and when he became the prime minister of Jinan, he took a master like Xiahoudun as a bodyguard, which can be regarded as a thrilling situation, but even so, those family gate valves played some small tricks and stabbed the imperial court, and in the end, Cao Cao stepped down......

Thinking of this, Guo Jia suddenly figured out one thing, he remembered that the Qingzhou Army only listened to Xiahoudun except Cao Cao, and at this moment Guo Jia figured it out, it turned out that Xiahoudun had also mixed it up back then......
