Cheng Yu said: "Lord, I think we can go, now Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu have not yet started a war, but they are actively preparing for reserve grain and grass, we have nothing to do now, and it will also make Er Yuan jealous and dare not go to war, we can't recruit soldiers in Dongjun, it is better to take this opportunity to recruit the remnants of the Yellow Turban of Si Li, to enrich the men and horses of our army." It can also distract Er Yuan's attention and let them open the station unscrupulously! ”

Cao Cao laughed and said, "Great! Zhongde is really my ovary! ”

Cao Cao received the order, and together with Bao Xin, he sent troops to attack the thieves in Sili. Bao Xin was killed by thieves.

Cao Cao pursued the enemy all the way to Hongnong, and tens of thousands surrendered.

Cao Cao used the Yellow Turban Thief as the vanguard, and wherever the army arrived, there was no one who did not return.

However, in more than 100 days, more than 300,000 troops and more than 1 million men and women were recruited to surrender.

Cao Cao chose the elite ones, called the "Si Li Bing", and the rest had to go back to the peasants. Since then, the practice has become more and more famous. The good news was reported to Chang'an, and the imperial court crowned Cao Cao as the general of Zhenshu.

Cao Cao is in the division, recruiting talents.

Someone recommended to Cao Cao the descendants of Guangwu, a native of Huainan Chengde, surnamed Liu, named Ye, and Ziyang. Cao Cao immediately visited Liu Ye and came.

Liu Ye recommended two people again: one is a native of Changyi, Shanyang County, with a surname Man, a pet name, and a character Boning; One is a native of Wucheng, surnamed Lu, whose name is pious, and whose name is Ke.

Cao Cao usually knew these two reputations, and both of them were hired by Cao Cao to serve in the army. Man Chong and Lu Qian jointly recommended one person, so Chen Liujun Pingqiu people, surnamed Mao, name Mao, word filial piety. Cao Cao was also hired to engage in it.

Another person led hundreds of troops to defect to Cao Cao: so Taishan Juping people, surnamed Yu, name forbidden, and the words and texts are rules. Cao Cao saw that his men were skilled in bows and horses, and his martial arts were outstanding, and he was ordered to be the commander of the army.

One day, Xiahoudun led a big man to see Cao Cao, Cao Cao asked who this person was, Xiahoudun said: "This is Chen Liuren, surname, name Wei, brave and powerful." It turned out that he followed Zhang Miao, discorded with his subordinates, killed dozens of people with his own hands, and fled to the mountains. When I was out hunting, I saw Dian Wei chasing the tiger across the mountain stream, so I specially left him in the army. It is especially recommended to you today. “

Cao Cao said: "I see that this person is burly, and he must have courage and strength. ”

Xiahoudun said: "He once killed people to avenge his friends, and he went straight out of the downtown area, and hundreds of people did not dare to approach. Only now he made two iron halberds, weighing eighty pounds, and took him on a horse, and the envoy was like a flying wind. ”

Cao Cao immediately ordered Dian Wei to give it a try. Dian Wei held the halberd and suddenly rode back and forth. Suddenly, he saw that the banner under the tent was blown by the wind, and it was about to fall, and the soldiers were uncertain; Dian Wei dismounted, drank and retreated, holding the flagpole in one hand, standing in the wind, standing still.

Cao Cao said: "This is the same as the evil of ancient times! So he appointed him as the capital of the tent, and untied himself in a brocade jacket, and gave him a horse and a carved saddle.

Since then, Cao Cao's subordinates have strategists, brave generals, and Wei Zhen Division.

So he sent his subordinate Taishou Yingshao to Langya County to ask Cao Cao's father, Cao Song.

Cao Cao's father, Cao Song, took refuge in Chenliu and lived in seclusion in Langya; On the same day, he received the letter, and his younger brother Cao De and a family of more than 40 people, with more than 100 followers and more than 100 vehicles, came through Wangsi. One of them passes through Xuzhou, too shou Tao Qian, the word Gongzu, is gentle and simple, and wants to make friends with Cao Cao, but there is no reason; Knowing that Cao Cao's father was passing by, he went to the border to greet him, salute again, and hold a feast for two days.

Cao Song was leaving, Tao Qian personally sent him out of the city, and the special commander Zhang Kai led 500 soldiers to escort him. Cao Song led the family to China, between the cost, in the late summer and early autumn, the heavy rain suddenly arrived, and he could only cast an ancient temple to rest overnight.

Monastery access. Huangfu Song settled down and ordered General Zhang Sun to horse in the two corridors. The clothes of the army, all wet from the rain, complained. Zhang Kai asked the leaders of his subordinates to discuss in a quiet place and said: "We are originally the remnants of the Yellow Turban Party, and we have no good treatment for Shun Taoqian. Now the Cao family has countless heavy vehicles, and it is not difficult for you to get rich and noble, only tonight, on the third watch, everyone cut in, killed Cao Song's family, selected property, and went to the mountain tribe grass together. How's that idea? ”

Everyone agreed. This night was full of wind and rain, Cao Song was sitting, and suddenly heard a shout on all four walls. Cao De went out to look at it with his sword and was killed.

After Cao Song hurriedly fled into the temple with a group of children, he wanted to go over the wall; Cao Song was obese and couldn't come out, Cao Song was in a hurry, hid in the toilet with his concubine, and was killed by the rebels.

escaped at the order of Shao Death and went to Yuan Shao.

Zhang Xian killed Cao Song's entire family, selected property, set fire to the temple, and fled to Huainan with 500 people.

Later generations have a poem that says: "Cao Cao was praised by the world for his treachery, and he once killed the entire Lu family." Nowadays, every household kills people, and the cycle of heaven is not bad. “

There were soldiers fleeing for their lives under the ribs of Xia Ying, reported to Cao Cao.

When Cao Cao heard this, he fell to the ground crying. The crowd rescued. Cao Cao gritted his teeth and said, "Tao Qian's soldiers killed my father, and this revenge is not shared!" Now I am leading the army to wash Xuzhou, Fang Xue I hate! ”

So Cheng Yu and others were left to lead an army of 30,000 to guard Si Li, and the rest all went to Xuzhou. Xiahou, Yu Ban, and Dian Wei were pioneers. Cao Cao ordered: As long as you get the city, kill all the people in the city, and take revenge on Xue's father.

Besides, Xue Rengui, who is still in Yanzhou, is already busy now.

Xue Rengui was looking at the reports written by Xun Yu, Chen Gong, Xi Zhicai, and Xu Maogong, and had a headache, but fortunately there was a Zhou Yu next to him, who shared most of Xue Rengui's work, otherwise Xue Rengui would have torn up the book a long time ago.

Just when Xue Rengui was having fun, the herald outside came and said, "Lord Qi, the disaster in Qingzhou has further expanded!" ”

Xue Rengui frowned and said, "Didn't I already send Dong Feng to help?" ”

The herald said: "In front of him, Lord Dong Feng only has a way to suppress the disease, and there is no way to treat the epidemic. ”

Xue Rengui said: "Send me a notice to seek a famous doctor in the world, the notice does not need to write how much money to them, just say that the plague in Qingzhou is serious, and ask them to save the people from fire and water!" ”

The herald replied, "No." ”

Zhou Yu next to him asked: "Lord, if you are not allowed to pay a lot of money, how can these doctors come back?" ”

Xue Rengui smiled and said, "There are only three of the world's miracle doctors. Who does Gong Jin know? ”

Zhou Yu said: "Our medical school boss Dong Feng should be one." ”

Xue Rengui said: "Yes, that's right. ”

Zhou Yu continued: "I was in the south before, and I also heard that the former Taishou of Changsha, Lord Sun Zhongjing, should also be a famous doctor. ”

Xue Rengui said: "Yes, Gongjin, there is another one, I don't know if you know?" ”

Zhou Yu thought about it for a long time, and said, "Lord, I am lonely and unheard of, I don't know." ”

Xue Rengui said: "Let me ask you, Mr. Zhang Zhongjing was the Taishou in Changsha before, why did he resign?" ”

Zhou Yu said: "I know this, saying that it is to help the people of the world. ”

Xue Rengui said: "Yes, so this person is not greedy, gold, silver and jewelry, glory and wealth." but sincerely for the people of the world. ”

Zhou Yu said: "So Lord Zhang Zhongjing is very worthy of our admiration. ”

Xue Rengui said: "The other one is called Hua Tuo, this person, like Zhang Zhongjing, is also very pessimistic about fame and fortune and money, just to save the people. Therefore, I posted a notice saying that I would invite famous doctors from all over the world to come to treat the disaster in Qingzhou, and if they got the news, they would definitely come. If we promise a lot of money, maybe we will come to a messy quack, but it will delay our illness in Qingzhou. ”

Zhou Yu said: "Lord, you are really smart. ”

At this time, there are soldiers sent out by Xue Rengui, come on, Cao Cao's recent actions have told Xue Rengui again, and now Cao Cao's subordinates are very brave and witty.

Xue Rengui couldn't help but sigh and said, "Xiao Xiong deserves to be a Xiao Xiong!" I'm just dealing with Qingzhou's affairs these days, and he's developed like this, and it's really Cao Mengde! ”
