Chapter 392: The Captive's Capital
"Your Majesty, it's not that Weichen intends to rebel against the Lord, but here's a letter, and I ask Your Majesty to look at it before talking about military affairs. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
The eunuch was about to step forward to pick it up, but Zhao Qian said unashamedly: "Since it was handed over by Lord Sikong himself, why don't you read it out and listen to the ministers, I also want to see what it is that made Lord Cao discuss retreating at this critical moment." ”
Cao Cao lowered his head and couldn't see his face, sneered, and then spread out the fold.
It turned out that this letter was not a fold, but a return from Cao Cao's horse exploration, saying that Yang Zaixing's army took Zhu Yuanzhang as a prisoner and ordered Li Shanchang to open the gate of Chang'an and surrender.
The full hall of civil and military people looked at each other, and their shocked expressions were beyond words, including Xun Yu, who was also shocked, and looked at Cao Cao with some shock.
Cao Cao's voice fell, and he was about to question Emperor Xian, but there was a commotion outside the main hall, and in a blink of an eye, a eunuch rushed in and hurriedly bowed down.
"Your Highness, something is wrong, there was an urgent report from the front just now, Xiahou Yuan's troops were not allowed to advance an inch, and Chen Qingyi, who went deep into the hinterland of Bingzhou, was captured alive, and he didn't know life or death at the moment."
Liu Xie's face changed, and he stood up suddenly, his eyes were full of fear, and it was only at this moment that he realized what kind of stupid thing he had done, and he also woke up at this moment, even if he took back a little bit of military power, he could not compare with the behemoth King Li's power.
But the big mistake has been made, some things are not something you can get out of if you want to end up, and then he fell on the dragon chair again, his eyes were dead and gray, and his face was bloodless, obviously afraid.
But when he saw Cao Cao standing indifferently, his eyes lit up, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, and he hurriedly said: "Cao Aiqing, why don't you help ......me at this time?"
"That's it." Cao Cao shook his head, his eyes were as calm as the sea: "Your Majesty, I agreed to send troops before, but it was Wang Shouren and others who went first, but Your Majesty ordered Chen Qingzhi to go deep into the hinterland without authorization, if I had known earlier, I would have stopped him, at this time, Shu Weichen was stupid, and there was no way to turn the tide." ”
After speaking, he didn't wait for others to reply, and walked out by himself, until this moment, Cao Cao was really disappointed in Emperor Xian, his eyes were empty, he had no vision, and he didn't care about the lives of his soldiers, if he agreed to withdraw the army, he couldn't say that he was desperate to fight with King Li, but at this moment, he no longer had the mind to help Emperor Xian regain the country.
And where is Cao Cao going at this time? Of course, he ordered the generals and rushed to the east of the river, where there were half of the men and horses under his command, and he had to go to the town in person.
At the end of November of the 4th year of Zhongxing, Cao Cao officially appeared in Hedong County, took back the power of soldiers and horses, deployed defense on the front line, and dealt with Li Jing's army, and for Chen Qingzhi's location, he also sent people to actively connect with Li Jing.
King Li had also led the army into Li Jing's camp, and was counting the supplies with the generals at this time.
grabbed a handful of gold and silver treasures and said with a smile: "It seems that Cao Cao really cares about the lives of his soldiers, so much money is easy to exchange for food, which is enough for tens of thousands of troops." ”
Li Jing smiled and clenched his fists: "Before I have time to congratulate His Highness, the battle of Baihu has opened the eyes of the last general, and a thousand blue sword guards have actually taken down the three thousand tiger camps, which can be described as a feat in the world." ”
Li Wang stopped with a smile: "It's just a mistake, don't mention it." ”
However, Zhou Yu said: "So many gold and silver treasures, if His Royal Highness accepts them, it will be enough to deal with the silver money of the migrant workers who open the ditch, but after all, it is not a long-term solution, after all, His Royal Highness has collected these dead things, and Cao Cao is not easy to deal with." ”
King Li nodded and said, "That's the truth, but does Gong Jin still remember Guo Fengxiao's incident?" ”
Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, and then nodded happily: "Your Highness means to follow the example of detaining Guo Jia for his own use, and if he wants to return it, he has to speak on merit?" ”
Li Wang laughed: "It's just a little the same, now that Cao Cao appears here, I'm afraid he fell out with Emperor Xian, and the longer the time drags on, do you say that those people in the party still have the heart to serve Cao Cao?" I have to say this thing, but with these dead things, it is impossible for me to let Chen Qingzhi go back, and everyone understands the truth of raising tigers. ”
Zhou Yu nodded sympathetically, but he didn't speak again, but said with some doubts: "Then I don't know why His Highness only brought Cao Ang here." ”
King Li patted him on the shoulder and said, "Gong Jin doesn't know, Cao Ang is destined to be Cao Cao's own son, don't look at him saying that he wants to redeem Chen Qingzhi, but how can I not see that he wants to redeem Cao Ang?" Chen Qingzhi has the courage of a thousand troops, but Cao Ang has the courage of only one person, plus Cao Cao's concern for him, why not sell him a face and put it back. ”
Zhou Yu thought for a moment and nodded: "That's fine, at least Cao Cao will have some concerns about capturing our generals in the future." ”
King Li was noncommittal, Chen Qingzhi forced Mo Yan to retreat and captured Xu Sheng again, this was nothing more than a show of goodwill to himself, since he didn't kill the prisoners without permission, he couldn't fall behind.
However, Li Jing suddenly said: "By the way, Your Highness, the ransom sent by Cao Cao is not these, and there is one more item that I have arranged in the big tent, and the lord can go to 'count' by himself."
King Li was stunned: "Since it's a ransom, why don't you summarize it together." ”
Li Jing glanced at King Li strangely: "This thing is quite special, I'm afraid it needs His Royal Highness to verify it in person, and the general will not dare to overstep the bounds." ”
King Li was speechless for a while, but he didn't dig deeper, he has the system, as long as he has enough time, what kind of artifact can't he get? Even if Cao Cao wanted to, he could even summon several generations of the Sima family to you to hurt each other.
There was no more nonsense, at this time, Li Jing had no worries, and practiced soldiers and horses in the camp every day, and the sound shook the sky, and it was particularly clear when it landed in the enemy camp in the distance.
After inspecting the camp, it was already sunset, and it was time to have a dinner party, because it was just to the camp, so Li Jing also arranged a reception banquet, which was carried out in Li Jing's handsome tent, at this time King Li had not yet taken over Li Jing's military power, so the handsome tent was still presided over by him.
There was no fun in the army, everyone sat opposite each other in two columns, and King Li stood on a high platform, shook his glass with all the soldiers, and drank it all.
Li Wang looked at the wine in the cup and said with a smile: "Cousin doesn't seem to like drinking, the ten catties of liquor I distributed this season are all here, and the liquor in the previous seasons has only been opened, and I haven't drunk much, Zilong, Gongjin, you have some good mouths." ”
Zhao Yun and Zhou Yu took care of themselves and were silly and happy, and they didn't talk to each other. (To be continued.) )
