Chapter 380: Xuchang Civil Strife

Got the news. Several major families are a little restless. But as a child of a family, especially the head of a family, he is not a fool. If you agree to the conditions of the person in front of you, it will show that you are standing in line in this competition between the royal family and the Cao family. This is naturally unacceptable to the scholars.

Cao Cao is now huge, and the consequences of going against him are absolutely immeasurable. If he really fails, he will need to face the merciless revenge and blow of the soldier Cao Cao. You must know that Cao Cao is not a good man and a woman. And in the Yanzhou territory, he is the only one.

Although each clan has a large number of private soldiers, compared with the wolf-like soldiers under Cao Cao's command, it is definitely a group of rabble, and it is difficult to wait for the hall of elegance. This is naturally what every family is most worried about, after all, if something really happens, then there must be a spirit of immortality and no return.

However, the major families have been forced by Cao Cao's Li Shang Order, and because of the existence of the Li Shang Order, the major families have no way to deal with the merchants who have poured into Xuchang. With the influx of these merchants, the entire Xuchang market is extremely active, which makes the major families have no ability to adapt. Moreover, the purpose of the Merchant Order is to protect the merchants, which makes it impossible for everyone to stop it.

If it is to interfere with it by force, it will be to challenge this new law. And to challenge the business order, the major families have no courage at all. Because they knew that Cao Cao had killed a minister who opposed its promulgation in court for the sake of this decree. And if he jumped out at this time to oppose the Lishang order that Cao Cao was trying to promote, his fate would definitely not be much better than that of the beheaded minister.

There are words on the left and right, the only difference is that one dies faster, and the other dies slower. And faced with these two dilemmas, all the clan patriarchs are caught in a dilemma. After all, his decision is related to the success or failure of his family, and he has to think carefully about how this step should be taken.

In order to completely solve this matter, the patriarchs of the major families gathered here to discuss how to decide at this time. But just as they gathered, the mysterious figure who was born as a close minister of the emperor reappeared in front of everyone's eyes.

And for his appearance, all the family patriarchs were extremely surprised and surprised, after all, the matter of their gathering together was absolutely confidential. But Rao is like this, this person can still find out, which makes all the family patriarchs can't help but have a trace of awe of the mysterious person in front of them, because the information network in this person's hand is too huge. This also made the major families realize that although the imperial power is lonely, the residual power is still there.

Through this incident, the patriarchs of the major families finally made a choice in their hearts, and they definitely joined forces with the royal family to eradicate Cao Cao together. At this time, the wealthy families of the major scholars had forgotten the uneasiness in their hearts and began to plot against Cao Cao.

And seeing that his goal had been achieved, he left here very quietly. And after he secretly left here, he first wandered aimlessly around the streets, and after making sure that there was no tail, the mysterious man slowly walked out of the back door alley of the Taiwei Mansion. Coming to the back door of the Taiwei Mansion, the mystery was confirmed again, and then he slowly pushed open the back door of the Taiwei Mansion, and then quickly flashed in.

After entering the Taiwei Mansion, the mysterious man rushed towards Zhao Fei's house without stopping. After all, this matter is very important, and it must be reported to Zhao Fei as soon as possible. After all, he was Zhao Fei's subordinate soldiers, so he naturally had to inform Zhao Fei of this matter.

The major families couldn't have imagined that what appeared in front of them would actually be specially arranged by Zhao Fei, not by the emperor.

In the room, Zhao Fei squinted his eyes and listened to the situation reported by his subordinates, and suddenly his eyes burst out with a cold killing intent. Immediately, Zhao Fei nodded, and then said gloomily: "The bait has been thrown out, how many big fish can be netted, then it is up to fate." I hope that the plan, which has been busy for so long, will not disappoint me too much. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Fei's heart was touched by the streets. It's definitely a joy to be able to plan so quickly and finally be able to close the net.

In the next few days, the entire city of Xuchang fell into the most peaceful days before the storm. The entire city of Xuchang is very quiet, but secretly, all the major families are deploying troops, preparing to kill Cao Cao at a very sudden time.

They are all waiting, waiting for such an opportunity to appear. Because they knew that with their own strength, it was absolutely impossible to resist Cao Cao's elite soldiers. Therefore, they could only continue to be speechless to give Cao Cao a surprise attack and lay the foundation for victory in one fell swoop.

And just when they were plotting, Zhao Fei was also secretly planning in his heart. He was thinking about what kind of "bait" to use to completely seduce this big fish without leaving the slightest flaw. For this reason, Zhao Fei can be said to be racking his brains, but in this way, Zhao Fei still didn't think about how this matter should be resolved.

So in the midst of this stalemate, time is passing day by day. And with the passage of time, the patriarchs of the major families are a little unbearable.

The reason why they can choose to take risks is that they hope that their family can continue. But now with the passage of time, the lives of the major families are getting more and more difficult day by day, and it can be said that they have some feelings of difficulty in surviving.

Faced with such a feeling, the major families finally couldn't hold back, and they wanted to understand the matter as soon as possible and live their ideal life. And at this time, a thing that made everyone excited reached the ears of the major families.

Cao Cao has nothing to do these days, and plans to send some soldiers to go out of the city with him to hunt to kill time.

Hearing this news, the eyes of all the family patriarchs lit up, this is not the golden opportunity they have been waiting for for a long time. Since Cao Cao wanted to go out of the city to hunt, he would inevitably take away the elite soldiers under his command for safety, which would inevitably reduce Xuchang's city defenses and help them get into trouble.

In addition, not only was Cao Cao not in Xuchang, but even Zhao Fei, the first adviser under Cao Cao, seemed to be going with him, which made all the family patriarchs feel relieved. After all, the threat that Zhao Fei brought to everyone was far greater than that of Cao Cao.

Taking advantage of the absence of Cao Cao and Zhao Fei, he took down King Xuchangqin with one sentence, and then asked Emperor Xian to announce to the world to crusade against Cao Cao together, then a big thing could be done. Although Cao Cao is powerful, he is afraid that he is tired of dealing with the crusade of the princes of the world, and it is not the best time for his family to rise.

All people have such illusions that they do not see any danger in their eyes.

The time came as scheduled, and the generals and strategists under his command led by Cao Cao set off to sacrifice the flag, and then the army slowly marched towards the outside of Xuchang City. At the same time, nearly 10,000 private soldiers organized by major families also began to move, and the atmosphere in Xuchang became a little strange for a while.

Cao Cao's army had been gone for a few days, and after all the family patriarchs confirmed that Cao Cao and Zhao Fei had left Xuchang, their courage began to grow slowly. Although Xuchang City is not impregnable, since the last war, the city wall has been covered a lot. This makes its walls look very majestic, and it already has the potential to be a military fortress.

And now, this military fortress, the capital of a country, will be subverted in the hands of a few people, how can this not make these family patriarchs excited. But having said that, they still have concerns and do not dare to launch an offensive rashly. As the saying goes, pulling a hair and moving the whole body, too eager for quick success, will have a bad effect.

So in the anxious waiting, the patriarchs have been waiting for so many days. And in the past few days, countless scouts have watched Cao Cao's hunting army go farther and farther. At this time, all the patriarchs of the family finally couldn't bear the feelings in their hearts and began to start an uprising.

With the order of the patriarchs of the major families, heavily armed private soldiers poured out of the major families one after another, killing several important strongholds.
