Chapter 3, Cao's
(Two or three chapters click on the situation in the world, before entering the text, this is today's update, continue to ask for votes in the new week!) ~)
On June 5 of the first year of the First Ping, Xiangguo of the Han Dynasty and Dong Zhuo of the Taishi issued an order from Luoyang to promote the generals of the Xiliang Army, Li Dao, Guo Yan and Zhang Ji, who had previously been active in the Yingchuan area, to a higher level.
And this move made outsiders quite suspicious, and the most affected place was undoubtedly Yuan Shao's department that occupied this place, especially Yuan Shao even simply stopped the attack march against Han Fu that had been prepared, just to always guard against Dong Zhuojun's possible opportunity to raid, if they were allowed to pick up the cheap, it would be worth the loss, and it can also be seen that they were deterred.
At the same time, Han Fu, who was determined to fight against the tide because of Yuan Shao's declaration of war, finally repelled a fierce offensive by Gongsun Zhan, and finally stopped in Gaoyang, and while his offensive was blocked, the unfavorable situation for Jizhou also improved slightly, especially Han Fu began to take a different approach to the construction of the building, focusing on internal and external coordination and unity, and cultivating the xenophobia and defense consciousness of the military and people in Jizhou.
These measures are also flattering, when the building is about to fall, some of the situation has been saved, and because Gongsun Chan from his younger brother Sun Yue did the slaughter of the village that exterminated humanity in Zhangwu County, under the advantages of the other, it aroused a stronger sense of resistance among the soldiers and civilians in Jizhou on the front line, and for a time the Jizhou battlefield fell into a certain stalemate, plus Yuan Shao did not dare to act lightly because of Dong Zhuo's relationship, and the land of Jizhou war actually maintained a delicate situation, although I don't know how long it will last, But there will be no more large-scale fights in the short term.
At this time, a new round of Qiang chaos broke out in Xiliang, and Ma Teng, Han Sui, Beigong Boyu and others appeared one after another, announcing the early arrival of the great chaos in the north.
Yongzhou Muniufu hurriedly retreated the army, based on the garrison of Chang'an, and laid heavy troops in Xinping, Wugong, Jingyang and other places, defending layer by layer, echoing each other, although he did not want to forge ahead, but the general defense of the iron bucket formation and Niu Fu's steady character also made people feel more at ease - at least Xiliang was chaotic, but it could not be chaotic in Gyeonggi.
And when the war in the northeast was frequent, Liangzhou Ma Han was also restless, and the situation in the whole north was chaotic, relatively speaking, Yanzhou and Xuzhou were relatively calm. And Xuzhou Tao Qian itself is quite popular here, although the previous battle of Tiger Prison Pass broke the old book, and there is no longer the power of war, but it can still come back to stabilize the situation.
Originally, for Cao Cao, if he wanted to make a comeback, these two places should be regarded as the best places for the time being, but Cao Cao did not rush to these places immediately, but was in ...... Chen Liu, Jiwu.
Originally, Chen Liu's place was Chen Liutai's base camp for Zhang Miao, but Zhang Miao died under Lu Bu, and even the subordinates in the coalition army were directly divided by Yuan Shao and others, but this territory was vacant, but it happened to be taken by Cao Cao, who turned here.
Cao Cao can have this opportunity, there are many factors, in addition to himself and Zhang Miao have always been better, and even with a better understanding of Zhang Miao's subordinates, Chen Liu's current panic state because of the ownerless is also an important reason why the local squires and tyrants are eager to seize Cao Cao's life-saving straw that stretched out in time.
To put it bluntly, Cao Cao is the shield they proposed, but Cao Cao himself doesn't mind much about being used, because he needs to occupy such a place before he can talk about development. …,
Here, he also received funding from Weizi, and began to gather the capital of the resurgence, especially in the previous assassination of Dong and the issuance of the princes of the Dong Wen Alliance for Cao Cao to collect a lot of people's hearts, and there are many people who come to vote, although there are not many talents who really need it, but how many of them are more conspicuous, there is a Taishan Juping people, surnamed Yu Mingban, the words and texts, the bow and horse are skilled, the martial arts are outstanding, and they are also considered the best in the army, and it is even more rare that Cao Cao is opposite to this person, looking at his talent and learning, and finally left a "Kekan general." In other words, this person's ability to lead troops to fight is probably stronger, and he also brought hundreds of soldiers, which is also the first big boost to Cao Cao's momentum, so he was immediately ordered by Cao Cao to be the military Sima and ride in charge; There is also a Chen Liuping Qiu people, surnamed Mao Mingyu, the word filial piety, who was also admired and recommended by himself, and was finally temporarily appointed by Cao Cao to engage in the army.
But although he laid the foundation in Chenliu and had the foundation for revival, Cao Cao did not put too much thought here, but set his sights on his hometown Yanzhou.
Just like this time, Cao Cao convened a meeting of his subordinates, and as soon as he opened, he raised the letterhead in his hand and smiled at the left and right: "Do you know, what news is this?" ”
"I don't know, please let the Lord announce it."
Cao Cao looked very happy, grinning and still couldn't stop the sound of "ho ho", and it seemed to have been brewing for a while before he said: "The thief ordered the general Xu Rong to take over the Yanzhou Assassin History, vainly trying to take advantage of Liu Dai's death to extend his tentacles here......"
In the battle of the Tiger Prison is actually the following fire bull array of several princes who died, Yanzhou Assassin Liu Dai is one of them, and then Dong Zhuo also wants to accept this land, under the construction of Li Ru and others, Xu Rong, who has made a lot of contributions in the battle of the Tiger Prison Pass, and finally helped Li Ru's plan succeed, as the new Yanzhou pastor, but the appointment has not yet arrived, and even if it arrives, it may not be recognized by the local government, so it is said that Liu Cong, the king of Napei, will be the first not to agree, on the contrary, Cao Cao has a good chance.
One is that the local Cao family and the Xiahou family are intertwined and their strength is not small, and the other is that Cao Cao's own reputation is also very high in the local area, and Liu Cong will choose to support him, so the chances of victory are even greater.
And when Cao Cao said this, there was a sarcasm in his tone that couldn't be hidden, and everyone here naturally knew what it meant.
Cao Hong said: "The lord means ......"
"Chen Liufei is not a place to stay for a long time, although Dong Zhuo did not take care of this place for a while, but he is in Yuzhou, it is impossible to hide the news all the time; And I'm a thorn in his side after all, and sooner or later he'll do it. With my current strength, it is not enough to compete with it alone, only to avoid its edge first, Yanzhou is a good place to go, although it is adjacent to Yuzhou, it is far enough from Luoyang, and it is not Dong Zhuo's tentacles can be explored, but he wants to be delusional. And there is also the foundation of my Cao family and Xiahou family, and I also started here before, I have some friendship with Liu Cong, the king of Nabie and Pei, which can help somewhat, and at this time, there are and hope that the seclusion continues to attract our attention, and we can also develop with peace of mind in a short period of time. The most important thing is that in addition, Xuzhou and Yangzhou can be taken in the battle of Tiger Prison, Xuzhou Assassin Shi Taoqian, Yangzhou Assassin Shi Zhang Chao, although these two people are not like Liu Dai in the chaotic army, but their strength has been greatly reduced, and they are not enough to compete with us. ”
Of course, Cao Cao hasn't said it yet, but what everyone knows very well is that these must be based on the premise that he has been developed enough, the blueprint is good, but the implementation is too much, so there are still some backup countermeasures.
