Wen Hou wanted to kill Sun Gan, because Sun Gan not only robbed Changyi City, but also kidnapped the soldiers he had recruited with great difficulty. Cao Cao pulled Sun Qian by the side, Sun Qian was invited by him, if something happened to Sun Gan, the relationship with the eldest prince potter would be broken.

"Wait and wait, Master Sun can't be killed!"

"Why can't you kill it?"

Lu Bu held his sword and glared at Cao Cao, Cao Cao wanted to go to Tao Ying for help, but the young man turned his face away. Cao Cao had no choice but to say again: "The second son values love and righteousness, how can I, Cao Cao, be a person who is unkind?" Master Sun, I invited him, what if I would exchange one person for him? ”

Sun Qian was still arguing beside him, wanting Lu Bu to kill him, and he wanted to live up to his mission. Hearing that this was another deal, Tao Ying waved his hand and said, "What idea do you want to fight?" ”

"Cao Chun!"

Speaking of Cao Chun, Tao Ying suddenly thought of the great benefactor who blocked the arrow for him that day and saved him twice. Cao Cao was stunned when he saw Tao Ying, knowing that this deal would definitely be done.

"How? On that day, the second son abandoned Cao Chun, I took him back for treatment, and today I wanted to return him to the second son, but his gunshot wound has not healed, so he is still recuperating. In two days, I will definitely return Cao Chun! ”

Tao Ying nodded, and the two sides sat down at the negotiating table again.

The negotiations went on, and when the sun turned over the bare branches, and the frozen ground by the river slowly melted, Tao Ying stretched his waist and was relieved from the negotiations.

After half a day of negotiations, Tao Ying and Cao Cao signed a new contract under the witness of the Qingzhou envoy. In order to ensure the validity of the contract, Tao Ying began to ask for hostages again this time.

However, this time Tao Ying wanted to help Cao Cao, he wanted to know what Yanzhou would be like in the later period if Cao Ang did not die, so Tao Ying asked Yanzhou to send the eldest prince Cao Ang as a hostage this time.

However, Cao Cao refused this request, and in the end, the two sides agreed that Cao Pi, who was accustomed to life in Xuzhou, would continue to be a hostage in Xuzhou. Tao Ying sighed, all this is providence, you can't blame yourself for not saving him!

In addition to keeping Cao Pi as a hostage, Tao Ying signed a new agreement with Cao Cao, the first of which was to honor the covenant with Shiting Town. The next day, the state of Lu was ceded to Pengcheng, and the third article was to compensate 300,000 taels of silver, which would be paid off in two years.

With these 300,000 taels of silver, Tao Ying has decided to use it to support the construction of the three cities. Tao Ying wants to build three important towns in Yanzhou, and the first city is to rebuild the capital of Shanyang County.

Today's Changyi City, the capital of Shanyang County, has been taken by his hateful brother potter, and it is better to say that it is a potter, but it is better to say that it was taken away by Liu Bei. Liu Bei occupies Changyi City, just in time to get rid of the constraints of the potters, and he will grow stronger little by little.

Therefore, in order to make Changyi City no longer strong and allow more people to move from Changyi to Juye, Tao Ying was ready to take out 100,000 taels of war reparations to build a new Juye City.

Tao Ying wants to build Juye City into the largest city in Shanyang County, and it happens that Juye City is next to Nozawa, Tao Ying also wants to build the first naval army base in the northern inland here, everything is just right, and the geographical location of Juye City is suitable for building such a big city in all aspects.

From the map, Tao Ying has even drawn a line, and after the railway is completed, he will build a railway from Pengcheng to Guangqi, and then from Guangqi to Shanyang County through Xiaopei. Sanyang-gun Fanghecheng is exactly the junction of Surabaya and Jishui, and when the time comes, a station will be built in Fangyoseong. In this way, Pengcheng's goods could be sold to the northern cities along Jishui and Surabaya.

Then build another railway in Fanghe City to Jinxiang, and then the terminal is Juye City.

If you want to get rich, you must first build roads, and Tao Ying's planning has always been in the late Han Dynasty, which others can't imagine. In addition to supporting Juye City, Tao Ying was also ready to invest the other 200,000 taels of silver in Junyi City and Fengqiu City.

Junyi City is the location of Kaifeng in later generations, and it will become the capital in later generations, so Tao Ying changed its name by the way, and changed Junyi City to Bianliang City.

As an important waterway, Fengqiu is also a place for the transportation of goods, so in the two cities, Tao should be divided into 150,000 taels of silver for the construction of the new Bianliang City, and the other 50,000 taels of silver will be used to build the Fengqiu water transportation transfer station.

The matter of war reparations was also settled, so after the treaty was signed, the two said goodbye in Juye City. This time, Cao Cao was very worried. In the past few years, Cao Cao has not been as high-spirited as in the historical records, nor as powerful as the legend, and the spring that belongs to him has never come.

Before leaving, in order to comfort this important ally in the future, Tao Ying couldn't help but remind: "Cao Gong, there should be a word, I don't know if I should say it or not?" ”

Riding on a horse, the winter wind poured into the sleeves of the coat, and it was a little cold. Cao Cao was riding on a horse, and he seemed to be still in good spirits with his short stature, but Tao Ying knew that he was definitely in a bad mood at the moment.

"Say whatever you want!"

Cao Cao turned his head to look at Tao Ying, and Tao Ying had never said so sincerely: "The heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds." Cao Gong, don't be hit by a small failure in front of you, there are people, you have to believe in your fate! ”

Cao Cao whipped his horse with a whip, and the horse ran in pain.

"What is life? I, Cao Cao, never believed in fate! ”

Cao Cao still seems so confident, which makes Tao Ying very unaccustomed to it, sometimes, you should throw away narcissism, and people can progress! Catching up with Cao Cao, Tao Ying reminded him for the last time: "I have a word that can help you rise in the Central Plains." This hexagram is given to you for free, if it doesn't work, you can come to me! ”

Seeing that Tao Ying was going to calculate a hexagram for himself for free, Cao Cao laughed and said, "Okay, I want to see how you can help me?" If you are right, I will give you another city next to Junyi, and then let your three cities become corners. ”

Tao Ying knew that Cao Cao was teasing himself again, but Tao Ying was not angry.

"Cao Gong's enemy is in the north, not my Xuzhou. It is better for Cao Gong to reorganize his soldiers and horses, prepare to meet the Han Emperor in the west, and then ......"

Tao Ying didn't finish his words, but as soon as he mentioned the Emperor of the Han Dynasty in the west, Cao Cao's face suddenly changed. In the past few days, he has been thinking about where is the way out for Yanzhou? Yanzhou, like Xuzhou, is the first of the four wars, but what is worse than Yanzhou is that Xuzhou has at least the sea in winter, and the Yangtze River is separated by natural dangers in the south, but what about Yanzhou?

Yanzhou is a piece of fat meat, surrounded by jackals, tigers and leopards, if you don't try to turn yourself into a stone-like meat and kill this group of hungry dogs, you will be eaten.

Therefore, when Cao Cao withdrew his gaze from Xuzhou and re-examined his surroundings, he found that it seemed that his first move was really wrong. There are many Yellow Turban thieves around, they occupy one city after another, as long as their army arrives, they will

These cities can be easily pacified.

And he also found out the news from Chang'an, at this time the Han court was seriously divided, after Dong Zhuo's death, Li Yu and Guo Yan competed, and the ministers began to want to return to Luoyang. Several of his advisers had the intention of letting Cao Cao welcome the Han Emperor back to Yanzhou, and I heard that even Yuan Shao in the north began to have this idea.
