Chapter Forty-Eight: Cao Cao Occupies Luoyang?

When I came to the hall, I happened to see Zhao Yun, Tai Shici and others coming back and waiting here.

Ye Qing didn't say much, sat on the main seat, and asked, "Everyone, how is the situation in various parts of Hanzhong?" ”

"Lord!"

Zhang Liao was the first to stand up and said: "None of the cities that our troops have passed have resisted, they have completely surrendered to the wind, and they have taken it without losing a single soldier at all." ”

"Lord, the same is true for the last general's side, as soon as Zhang Lu died, the others did not resist anything." Huang Zhong also stood up and said respectfully.

The situation of all the generals is the same, in the entire Hanzhong, as soon as Zhang Lu, the leader, dies, it is natural that the tree will fall and scatter. As soon as the army arrived, all of them opened the city and surrendered, there was not much resistance at all, and there were even many die-hard elements, who were executed before the army arrived, which was really easy.

"My lord, now that Hanzhong has been decided, there must still be someone to guard here, otherwise there will be chaos for a long time." Zhao Yun's handsome appearance has always been a heart disease for Ye Qing.

At this moment, his face twitched slightly, he looked away, and said, "So, everyone, who wants to stay here and protect the entire Hanzhong?" ”

Everyone was silent for a while, and no one spoke, which made Ye Qing a little stunned. In fact, he didn't understand these generals, who wanted to defend a place, and who didn't want to lead the troops to the battle?

Seeing that no one spoke, Ye Qing seemed to understand a little, but said with a smile: "Everyone, do you think that there is no merit in defending the city, do you think so?" ”

"The last general will not dare to wait!"

Everyone stood up in unison and responded respectfully, making Ye Qing's eyes roll repeatedly. These guys, they don't dare, they just have this idea in their hearts?

He didn't say much, but directly ordered, saying: "Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, I order you two to be stationed here, command the entire Hanzhong soldiers and horses, be sure to exterminate the bandits from all over the country, and ensure that Hanzhong becomes the largest granary of the Han Dynasty." ”

"Honorable Order!"

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun were helpless, but they had no choice but to accept the order, after all, this is the duty of a soldier and must be obeyed. And Ye Qing was amused and said: "Wen Yuan, Gao Shun, the two of you will select the elite from the soldiers and horses in Hanzhong to train, I will not limit how much, just treat it as if you are training for the Han Dynasty, in the mountains and forests of the four directions, there are mostly some uncivilized alien races, these people can be appeased, this needs to be dealt with by the two of you, I just ask." ”

Ye Qing said before continuing: "As for the civil officials, ignore them for the time being, I will ask Wenhe to transfer some people over to assist you in managing the entire Hanzhong!" ”

Plop puff!

At this moment, a snow-white pigeon came from outside the window with its wings flapping and attracted everyone's attention. They all know that this is a pigeon found by Ye Qing, the lord, for communication, is there something big happening at this moment?

Ye Qing frowned, took out a small piece of letterhead from the carrier pigeon, and the more he looked at it, the more annoyed he became. His face was not concealed in the slightest, which naturally made the generals speculate in their hearts, whether it was someone else who caused the anger of the lord?

"How can it be!"

Soon, Ye Qing finally became angry, which made Zhao Yun very strange and asked, "Lord, why are you annoyed, is someone making trouble?" ”

Ye Qing nodded slightly, and sighed: "Wenhe came with news that Cao Cao actually sent a large army to occupy Luoyang, this is the imperial capital of the Han Dynasty, and he actually openly occupied it?" ”

"What?"

Everyone present was surprised, although Luoyang was dilapidated, it also represented the imperial capital of the Han Dynasty. Moreover, at this moment, Chang'an has restored the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty, and the little emperor has also regained his freedom, but there are still people who occupy the imperial capital of Luoyang?

What is Cao Cao going to do, this is Ye Qing's first question, do you really want to rebel openly? However, it shouldn't be, not to mention Cao Cao's own wisdom, which is a group of strong strategists under him, don't you know?

Ye Qing was a little annoyed and said: "This Cao Cao, who now occupies the ruined city of Luoyang, seems to be still repairing the city wall, which means that he wants to restore the prosperity of Luoyang?" ”

"Lord, Cao Cao has heard of this, so he shouldn't do this." Zhao Yun said strangely.

And Ye Qing groaned and said: "I don't know the actual situation now, but the imperial capital of the Han Dynasty must not fall into the hands of outsiders, it must be taken back, and I am ready to let the capital move back to Luoyang today." ”

Everyone didn't say much, because only Ye Qing dared to say that. And Ye Qing quickly commanded and said, "Wenyuan, Gao Shun, this Hanzhong will be handed over to the two of you, remember to guard against the direction of Chengdu." ”

"Don't worry, my lord, with General Wenyuan here, I won't lose if I want to come to Hanzhong!" Zhao Yun said with certainty.

Ye Qing didn't say much, and said: "Everyone, follow me back to Chang'an, I'll see, what does Cao Cao want to do!" ”

Next, Ye Qing reorganized the team, prepared dry food and other necessary things, and finally set out on the way home. He led the army to come, and at this moment, Zhang Lu was eliminated, so he naturally stopped staying and wanted to rush back to Chang'an immediately.

The entire Hanzhong was in the hands of Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, which made these two people sigh for a while. They were originally Lu Bu's generals, but in order for Lu Bu to leave, they had to stay.

I never thought that I would be reused and trusted, this is to hand over the entire Hanzhong to them. Zhang Liao said that it was false not to be moved, after all, such an important place, entrusted to him to manage, what is not trust?

Ye Qing came and went in a hurry, and after solving Zhang Lu's problem, he directly led the army back. Beside him, in addition to the people who originally came, there was also a woman with a beautiful national color, and it was that Zhang Ning.

"You're going to take me to Chang'an?"

Along the way, Zhang Ning rode on a war horse and asked Ye Qing next to him with a complicated expression. And the latter, after a glance at her, nodded and said, "Yes, I naturally have to take you back, otherwise your stay in Hanzhong will cause me a lot of trouble, so I should take you to rest assured." ”

Zhang Ning's face turned red, and he glared at him angrily, secretly hating this shameless man. Ye Qing didn't pay attention to this woman, but thought about Cao Cao's action, which contained something in it.

In his opinion, Cao Cao definitely did not do useless things, and repairing Luoyang could not be repaired for the Han Dynasty. So, what does this guy want to do, why is he occupying Luoyang at this time and repairing the city wall?

Everyone traveled under the stars, and Ye Qing finally rushed back to Chang'an a day later. He didn't even have time to keep warm up with Cai Yan, and came out after leaving that Zhang Ning in Cai's mansion, as for why he didn't worry that she would be bad for Cai Yan?

Ye Qing's sealing spell was not a vegetarian, so he was naturally not worried, and he was hurrying to the hall at this moment and saw Jia Yu.

"Wenhe, tell me, what's going on?" As soon as he came to the head, he asked.

Jia Xu saluted before saying: "Lord, the day after you set out on the expedition, news came that Cao Cao sent a general to Ban 30,000 troops to occupy Luoyang, and he was still moving people to repair. ”

Oh?

Ye Qing pondered slightly, and asked: "That Wenhe, what do you guess this Cao Cao wants to do, this is the imperial capital of the Han Dynasty, and now we are waiting for Chang'an to be said to be the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty, and he wants to rebel?" ”

"Cao Cao, Xiao Xiongye!"

Jia Xu's first sentence was Xiao Xiong's evaluation, and then he said: "Lord, Cao Cao has several reasons for this, one is that he wants to repair the imperial capital and return it to the Han Dynasty, one is to occupy it for himself, and the other is that he wants to be the king himself, or support one person to be the king." ”

Ye Qing's expression moved, and he said: "Wenhe, Cao Cao will not be the king now, unless all the royal successors in the world are dead, this guy will not openly claim the king." ”

"As for him, he supports one person to be the king, maybe this is the greatest possibility." He continued to speak inexplicably.

Jia Xu's expression moved slightly, and he said: "What does the lord mean, is Cao Cao a blood relative of the Han family?" ”

Ye Qing nodded affirmatively and said, "Has Wen He forgotten that Dong Zhuo wanted to abolish the current young emperor back then and support another emperor?" ”

"The lord is saying, the missing Liu Xie?" Jia Yu was a little surprised.

"Not bad!"

Ye Qing was very sure and said: "I guess that this Cao Cao must have found this Liu Xie, or he hijacked it at all, and now it is just right to take it out to make an appearance, so as to divide the orthodox status of the Han Dynasty." ”

"It seems so!"

Jia Xu also felt that it was very possible, after all, he had seen Cao Cao, although he was a hero, he would never blindly claim the king. Then the only possibility is that he has a puppet in his hand and wants to support it and divide the orthodox status of the Han Dynasty.

Ye Qing was a little annoyed and said, "Wenhe, what is your opinion, Luoyang can't fall into Cao Cao's hands!" ”

"Then fight!"

Jia Xu looked indifferent, didn't care, and said: "Yu Ban and those 30,000 horses dare to come to occupy the imperial capital of Luoyang, it seems that Cao Cao is very confident in his subordinates." ”

Ye Qing frowned and said, "Wen He, will there be fraud in it, after all, Cao Cao has a group of top strategists, and one of them is no worse than Wen and you." ”

Oh?

Jia Xu was surprised and said, "Lord, who is so respected by you?" ”

"This person, named Xi Zhong, word: Zhicai, is Cao Cao's top strategist now, if the other person has already come out of the mountain, I don't know if he is not under Cao Cao, that person is the most terrifying." Ye Qing said that Jia Xu was curious.

He asked, "What does the lord mean, as if there is a more powerful counselor?" ”

Ye Qing was very sure and said: "This person seems to be a close friend of Xi Zhong, his name is Guo Jia, the word: Fengxiao, known as the 'ghost talent' who has scheming and is a very terrible character. ”

"Ghosts?"

Jia Xu's expression was cautious, and his eyes flashed with Dao essence, as if there was a desire to be higher. He really wanted to meet such a character known as a 'ghost talent' for a while, and that Xi Zhong seemed to be very strong, which made his plain heart boil a little.

Fierce generals want to find their opponents, and strategists are no exception, so they naturally want to find a strong opponent. At this moment, Jia Xu was burned with the flame in Ye Qing's heart, and it was difficult to extinguish.
