————————————————————————————

The New Year is approaching, and the city of Xudu is a prosperous scene.

After the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao's position became more and more stable. With Yuan Shao's illness and death, Cao Cao seized Jizhou, and his authority in the court was also strengthened. Although there are still people who are dissatisfied with Cao Cao, no one dares to confront him face to face.

Even those veteran Hanchens have all died down.

Later, the court meetings became less and less, and the Han Emperor was blocked intentionally or unintentionally, and rarely appeared in front of people.

Cao Cao also became more and more proud......

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

In Sikong Fuzhong, drums are playing in unison, singing and dancing are colorful.

Cao Cao smiled and sat in the hall, looking at the graceful figure in the hall with a smile, dancing to the drum music......

The man of singing and dancing, tall and tall, with outstanding appearance.

This woman's name is Lai Ying'er, who was originally a famous singer in Luoyang and has a great reputation.

Since coming to Xudu, he has quickly made a great reputation. Even Cao Cao was full of praise for this woman and appreciated it very much. Today, he set up wine at home, invited his ministers to come, and specially ordered someone to bring Ying'er to him.

As the saying goes, full of warm thoughts***!

Cao Cao already likes fishing colors, which is not an uncommon thing.

When he captured Wancheng, he pulled Zhang Xiu's aunt into the camp tent***, but Cao Ang died.

Before, he was busy with military affairs and expeditions, but he was not in much mood.

Now, after a year of governance, Jizhou has gradually stabilized. also made Cao Cao's mood better.

Cheng Yu was in Jizhou, using thunderous means to deter the wealthy families of the Hebei family.

Those prominent clans who leaned towards the Yuan family either surrendered or died, and they no longer dared to stir up right and wrong...... And the horse thieves and bandits who had been wandering in the Jizhou area earlier also encountered Cheng Yu's ferocious blows. With a large number of materials flowing into Jizhou, the panic of the people in the early days gradually disappeared. At least on the surface, Jizhou's current form is very good.

Cao Cao has decided to use troops against Gao Gan after the beginning of spring.

It's just that Gao Gan and Yuan Xi colluded and borrowed troops from Xianbei Karasuma. Yan Liyou, the lord of Eastern Xianbei, sent 30,000 Xianbei soldiers, and Sun Kang, the prince of Liaodong, lent Yuan Xi 20,000 soldiers and horses. At the same time, Yuan Xi had frequent contact with Goguryeo in the past. At the cost of giving up Lelang, he exchanged 30,000 soldiers and horses from Goguryeo to help him......

In the Youzhou area alone, Yuan Xi stationed 100,000 troops to fight Cao Cao to the death.

Gao Gan, or Yuan Xi?

Between the two, who should be the target?

After some disputes, Cao Cao finally decided to take action against Gao Gan.

Well, it's simple...... Compared with Yuan Xi, Gao Gan's strength is poor. Especially after he killed Ke Shi and stationed troops in Hebei Karasuma, it caused dissatisfaction among the foreign races outside the Saiwai. Previously, Cao Renwei led his troops to cross the Tongtian Mountains and enter the state, which also caused huge losses to the senior cadres. In contrast, Gao Gan is far from being comparable to Yuan Xi.

But the question is, how to contain Yuan Xi?

It's also a nuisance!

Yuan Xi was deeply rooted in Liaodong and had a close relationship with Karasuma Xianbei.

If you want to contain Yuan Xi, it really takes a lot of work...... At the same time, there is another reason for attacking Gao Gan.

Gao Gan colluded with the Southern Xiongnu and sat on Shuo Fang, which was a problem for his henchmen.

Liu Bao, the Southern Xiongnu, seems to be inclined to the Han Emperor; And Liu Bao's enemies were humiliated, but they had already surrendered to Cao Cao. It is clear which is near and which is farther. Qubei joined forces with Tan Zhe Xianbei last year and gradually stabilized the situation. But it's still not enough. Cao Cao believed that Liu Bao must be further suppressed in order to stabilize the situation in the Hetao area.

At the same time, by suppressing Liu Bao, the power of Gao Gan can also be weakened......

War isn't all Iron Horse Kingo.

All kinds of calculations, all kinds of decisions outside the battlefield, seem to be more important...... In December of the ninth year of Jian'an, Cao Cao's name Shaofu Liu Ye was a special envoy, and he sent an envoy to Zhongxianbei and joined forces with Kebineng. As long as it can be combined with Kebineng, it can form a suppression of Dongxianbei. At that time, Yan Liyou will no longer be able to support the soldiers and horses, so Yuan Xi can only hold on.

After all, Dongxianbei's 30,000 soldiers and horses still have extremely strong strength.

But it takes a process!

Before Liu Ye did not return and confirmed the alliance with Xianbei in the central part of the country, Cao Cao could only coerce the state, and could not start the war lightly.

Diplomatic victories are sometimes more important than on the battlefield.

However, at this time, Cao Cao was very relaxed, just enjoying the song and dance of Lai Ying'er with relish.

At this moment, Xun Yu came from outside......

"Wen Ruo, why did you come so late? When the punishment of the three lords of wine. ”

Cao Cao beckoned to Xun Yu with a smile, and his words were a little relaxed.

In the past year, Xun Yu has performed very well. Judging from his attitude, it seems that he is more and more inclined to Cao Cao rather than the Han Emperor.

Why is this happening?

Cao Cao can't say clearly! It's always a good thing, though.

Xun Yu's talent naturally does not need to be doubted. The more he was willing to help himself, the happier Cao Cao naturally became, and his attitude became more and more cordial.

But Xun Yu's face did not show a smile.

He walked straight into the lobby and came to Cao Cao's side, "Lord, something is wrong!" ”

"Huh?"

Cao Cao was stunned and looked at Xun Yu.

"Liangzhou!"

It's Liangzhou again......

In the past year, the turmoil in Liangzhou has exceeded Cao Cao's expectations.

First, Ma Teng rebelled, killed Han Sui, and seized Jincheng County; Then Cao Peng occupied Wuwei County, which alleviated the danger in the northwest.

But then, Zhang Lu sent troops.

Ma Teng captured Longxi County again and joined forces with Zhang Lu.

finally waited for Longxi to be pacified, and Ma Teng was killed. Cao Cao thought that the matter in Liangzhou would end like this. Who knew that there was a sudden rumor in the court, Guanzhong Haojia, imploring Wei Duan to be the pastor of Liangzhou, which made Cao Cao angry.

Liangzhou pastor?

Then it's better to hand over Liangzhou to Wei Duan and let him become the king of the northwest.

But this is the requirement of the Guanzhong giants, and the attitude is extremely tough. As a Kanto family, it has always had close contacts with wealthy families in Guanzhong. At such a time, it is naturally difficult to express opinions, so Cao Cao feels very annoyed......

The contradictions between Cao Cao and the clan are almost on the surface.

During the battle of Guandu, a large number of children of the clan submitted a letter of surrender to Yuan Shao.

It's just that due to the large number of people, Cao Cao is not easy to deal with. So I had to burn those books with a fire......

But the snakes and rats of the world clan at both ends made Cao Cao extremely angry.

The riot that occurred in Liangzhou this time, if it was said that there was no Guan Sergeant clan to make trouble, Cao Cao would not believe it.

When Han Sui died, no one spoke.

But Ma Teng lost his martial arts, but many people jumped out, saying that Cao Peng started the war lightly and should retreat to Hexi.

Fortunately, Cao Peng is famous in the Central Plains Shilin.

Therefore, although the Guan Sergeant clan jumped out, it did not make too many waves, and was directly ignored by Cao Cao......

And now, it is the majority who support Wei Duan as the pastor of Liangzhou.

Cao Cao knew very well that the so-called Liangzhou Mu was the interest of the gate valve in Guanzhong. Of course, they hope that Wei Duan will take up this position, so that they can naturally obtain more benefits. In particular, Cao Peng was in Hexi and began to restart the Silk Road, which made many people feel excited. Once the Silk Road is restarted, it will inevitably bring greater and greater benefits.

Cao Cao had the heart to oppose it, but the attitude of Sergeant Guan was very resolute this time, which gave him a headache.

"What happened?"

"Wei Duan, dead!"

"Huh?"

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment......

"Wei Duan is dead?"

Xun Yu said in a low voice: "It was killed by Youxue." ”

Cao Cao suddenly gasped. Under the hall, the song and dance of the Ying'er are in good time, and the rotation is moving, the clothes are fluttering, like a fairy riding the wind, which is heart-pounding. But Cao Cao was in no mood to look any further, stood up, called Guo Jia, Xun You, Dong Zhao and others, and pulled Xun Yu to the back hall...... Cao Peng, actually killed Wei Duan?

This is no small matter!

Cao Cao couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart: This Youxue is really a master who refuses to stop.

It was enough to set off a huge storm in Liangzhou, but now he was red-eyed, and even Wei Duan was killed together...... Wei Duan is not Ma Teng Han Sui and the like. That's Jingzhao Giant! What he represents behind him is precisely the interests of the Sergeant Guan clan. If you kill Wei Duan, won't you want to cut off the interests of the Guan Sergeant clan in Liangzhou? It's strange that they don't make a fuss.

"My lord, what happened?"

Guo Jia was watching it with relish just now, but was called to the study by Cao Cao.

Cao Cao smiled bitterly, "Let's let Wen Ruo talk about it." ”

Guo Jia and Dong Zhao then turned their attention to Xun Yu.

Xun Yu also smiled bitterly, glanced at everyone, and then said in a deep voice: "Six days ago, Cao Peng killed Wei Duan's father and son in Didao. ”

"What?" Guo Jia was surprised and asked, "Youxue is good at Duan, why do you want to kill Wei Duan's father and son?" ”

That's a long way to say...... Feng Xiao can know the southern governor Wang Meng? ”

Guo Jia said: "Of course I know! He had a very good relationship with Fengchehou, and Youxue also had great respect for him. He ......"

Guo Jia was halfway through speaking, and suddenly closed his mouth, as if he understood.

Xun Yu nodded and said, "Previously, Wang Nannan was killed by Ma Teng, which could have been avoided. However, because Wei Duan sat idly by, did not save him when he saw death, and refused to send troops, Wang Nannan died in Baishi County. Originally, this matter was not known, but who knew that Lin Tao ordered Shi Tao not to die. He knew the reason for this very well, and begged Wei Duan many times to send troops, but Wei Duan refused. When Wang Nannan was trapped in Baishi County, Shi Tao saw that Wei Duan refused to send troops, so he led his troops to rescue. I didn't want to be ambushed by Ma Teng on the way to the rescue...... It wasn't until Cao Peng received Di Dao that he appeared again.

After Wei Duan's father and son returned to Didao from Hanyang, they were taken down by Cao Peng.

And on the mourning hall in the south of the king, he personally took the lives of Wei Duan's father and son...... This incident caused a lot of turmoil in Guanzhong. Yang Fu, the Taishou of Hanyang County, led Zhao Qu and others to come to Xu Du to shout grievances, but fortunately they were stopped by Zilian and stayed in Chang'an.

Zilian ordered someone to send the newspaper six hundred miles urgently, and the reason why I was late today is precisely because of this incident......"

With that, Xun Yu turned his head to look at Cao Cao.

"My lord, if this matter is not properly resolved, I am afraid that there will be another incident in Guanzhong."

Cao Cao closed his eyes and was silent in thought, his face full of solemnity.

After a while, he raised his head, his gaze swept over everyone, and finally landed on Guo Jia.

"Feng Xiao thinks, what is this matter?"
