35. Moved the capital to Xuchang
Because Emperor Xian has made up his mind to move the capital to Xuchang, so the next thing is much simpler, first of all, Cao Cao listed Yang Feng as the guard captain, Li Wei as the executive Jinwu, Hu Cai, Han Xian as the Lang official, and his sergeants were organized into the northern and southern armies of the Beijing Division, and the Gong Guard Luoyang.

After the edict was issued, Cao Cao sent them a batch of military rations, although Yang Feng and Li Wei and others knew that Emperor Xian was going to leave them in Luoyang, but this promotion and giving money made them unable to attack, Wei Wei and Zhi Jinwu are both big officials in Jiuqing, the level is equal to the state pastor, Yang Feng was originally a general of Li Wei's department, Li Wei is simply a yellow turban remnant, and he has become a state pastor-level official, and there is no reason to be dissatisfied.
However, before the Son of Heaven went to Xuchang, the security of Luoyang was still in charge of Cao Jun, Yang Feng only had 2,000 guards in the city, and Li Wei only had the 2,000 Hun archers.
As for the generals around Cao Cao, they also received various rewards, Xiahoudun received Henan Yi, that is, the highest administrator of the capital region, and Xiahou Yuan received Yingchuan Taishou. This arrangement shows Cao Cao's political wisdom.
Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan are the oldest and most trusted generals of the Cao army, and now the emperor is still in Luoyang, and if Xiahoudun Henan Yi and others attach importance to him, the emperor will move to Xuchang in the coming day, and Xiahouyuan, the Taishou of Yingchuan, has also become the actual supreme administrator of the capital region.
Cao Cao is like this, and the two of them immediately became the same level as the state pastor Jiuqing, although the Son of Heaven is going to Xuchang, but the ownerless Sili region will be in Cao Cao's grasp sooner or later, so Xiahou Dun, who knows the inside story, will naturally not be dissatisfied.
As for Cao Cao's own clan children, they don't have such a high salary, Cao Ren Cao Hong, like Cao Zhang, is a councilor, Cao Ang is a Fubo general, and the others are also big and small.
However, there is an exception to all this, that is, Dian Wei, Cao Cao wanted to give him a list of officials, but Dian Wei resigned, saying that he would be Cao Cao's personal guard for the rest of his life, which made Cao Cao very moved, and this incident made Cao Zhang understand why Cao Cao howled and cried after losing Dian Wei, it was a pity that such a loyal general died.
Cao Zhang's more than a month in Luoyang still insisted on playing the game of fighting Dong Zhuo with Cao Pi and Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, and Emperor Xian was still happy to do it, Cao Zhang felt that most of the reason was because of the good name, and from the point of view of Emperor Xian's hatred for Dong Zhuo, this game could allow him to play for a long time.
Emperor Xian now has two wives, one is Queen Fu, the other is Dong Guiren, Dong Guiren is Dong Cheng's daughter, Queen Fu heard that it is a woman from a Xuzhou Wang family, both Cao Zhang have seen, in fact, the two women are not even Cao Cao's little wife Mrs. Huan, but they are all considered to accompany Emperor Xian through hardships, so Emperor Xian is still good to them.
The two women have very different personalities, Queen Fu is more generous, and they are all harmonious when they see Cao Pi and Cao Zhang, but Dong Guiren is a little annoying, and often counts down Cao Pi and Cao Zhang, so they have to play and abandon their studies, but Emperor Xian is now addicted, and every time he is fooling the past, but Cao Pi often complained to Cao Zhang, obviously it was the emperor who let them play with him, and this Dong Guiren counted down and fell to himself, Cao Zhang could only answer him and say that women are unreasonable.
On this day, the two brothers went out of the compound after playing poker with Emperor Xian, but they saw Li Le and Hu Cai waiting at the door, and when they saw the two, they stepped forward and saluted: "Two sons, the end will be polite." ”
Generally, this kind of occasion is Cao Zhang's to deal with, the so-called courtesy must be asked for by others, Cao Zhang immediately smiled: "Lord Li, you are a guard, but you are much stronger than our brothers, this big gift, I dare not be it!" ”
Li Le smiled flatteringly: "That's different! Cao Gong is the Hou Ye, and the two sons are noble, so I naturally have to salute when I see them. ”
Cao Zhang snorted and said, "General Li, if there is anything, just say it, our brother will definitely help you if he can do it." ”
Li Le didn't expect Cao Zhang to speak so well, and said with great joy: "The last general does have something to ask for, so he is waiting for the two sons here." ”
When Cao Zhang heard this, he tried to find historical information about Li Le in his mind, but unfortunately he found nothing, but he remembered that Yang Feng and Han Xian rebelled together, and then were destroyed by Cao Cao, so didn't Han Xian persuade Li Le not to go into the city to eat before entering the city? Thinking of this, Cao Zhang approached Li Le and whispered, "Does General Li want to go to Xuchang with me?" ”
Cao Zhang's question makes sense, Li Le is the commander of the White Wave Thief, but it turned out to be Han Xian, obviously this Li Le is either dead, or he has run away, see him Baba is waiting here, what else can he do if he is not going to Xuchang?
Li Le was taken aback when he heard this, and said in a low voice: "I have this intention, but I also know that Cao Gong will not let our army go to his territory, so I want to ask Gongzi to say a few kind words, if you can, it is not a problem for me and Hu Cai to go, we have long wanted to talk to Cao Gong, but we can't enter!" ”
Cao Zhang smiled secretly, Cao Cao deliberately left the army here for fear of going to Yingchuan, and the 40,000 troops were not easy to control, but this was not the main reason at all, the main reason was that Cao Cao wanted to recover the Sili area, but there was no excuse, leaving 40,000 soldiers here, there was a famine, and there was a shortage of military food, and these people would go to rob it.
Although there is a famine in Sili and there is a lot of wasteland, after all, the land is fertile, and because of the robbery of the homeless, many wealthy families have been scattered, that is, there is a lot of ownerless arable land, and it is also a big granary when it is occupied by the time, which is also a big granary, these are the strategies offered by Guo Jia and Xun Yu to Cao Cao.
When Cao Zhang heard Li Le say this, he suddenly thought of Cao Cao's expression when he saw the two thousand Hun archers under them and his later move of inviting them in to eat, maybe Cao Cao also wanted to incorporate the two thousand Hun archers, right? So he smiled and said, "This is easy to do, tomorrow you come directly to my father's place of residence, I think my father will definitely welcome the two generals." ”
Li Le was overjoyed, thanked him and Hu before leaving, Cao Pi just stood aside and waited while the two were talking, and only after they left did he come to Cao Zhang's side and said, "These two people are very inked, what are they doing?" Because he has been with Cao Zhang for a long time, he has also learned a lot of some mantras from Cao Zhang, such as ink.
Cao Zhang smiled: "You want to take refuge in us!" Let's go, man! ”
After returning to the house, Cao Zhang and Cao Cao told Li Le that he was going to take refuge the next day, and Cao Cao was really overjoyed and said with a smile: "God help me." "Cao Zhang doesn't know why Cao Cao is so happy, just for the two thousand Hun archers? It's unlikely, but I can't guess it for a while, so I can only lament that my intellectual growth rate is too slow.
In August 196 AD, Emperor Xian moved the capital to Xuchang under the escort of Cao's army, and as expected, in addition to Cao's army, Li Le and Hu Cai also went to Xuchang with 2,000 Hun archers, leaving only Yang Feng and Han Xian with the 40,000 soldiers in Luoyang City.
