Chapter 15: Cao Cao, Xun Yu, and Xi Zhicai

Yanzhou

After the failure of the coalition against Dong, Cao Cao saw that the Han dynasty was now in chaos, and knew that Yuan Shao and other "vertical sons" were inadequate.

He began to intensify the training of military horses for the future.

On this day, in the big tent of the Chinese army, Cao Cao held a silk silk in his hand, pondered for a moment, and said in a deep voice to his subordinates: "The Qingzhou Yellow Turban Thieves attacked Yanzhou Changyi and other counties, and Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou, died in battle. ”

"Now Jibei Prime Minister Bao Xin has sent a letter asking for support."

"These remnants of the Yellow Turban are a disaster, and they must be eliminated, so from now on, we should rectify the soldiers and horses, join forces with Bao Xin, and exterminate these thieves."

At this time, Cao Cao's first person dressed in scholar's clothes smiled and said: "Lord, now that the yellow turban thief is powerful, since the Jibei Prime Minister has passed the book, I'm afraid there are other meanings in it." ”

Cao Cao threw the brocade silk in his hand on the table and chuckled: "What Zhicai said is good. "Now that Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou, has died in battle, and the Yellow Turban thieves are rampant, Bao Xin not only sent people to ask for help, but also said that he is willing to serve me as the pastor of Yanzhou."

It turned out that the person who spoke just now was Xun Yu's advisor recommended to Cao Cao, Xi Zhicai.

When Xi Zhicai heard this, he bowed slightly, "Yanzhou Mu?!" Then he spoke: "Most of the Yellow Turban thieves are hooligans and people are coerced, although there are many people, they have little combat effectiveness. ”

"If the Yellow Turban Thief can be exterminated, the lord of Yanzhou will definitely be able to deserve his name."

"Jibei is quite generous to others."

Cao Cao shook his head and said with a smile: "Then they can't help it, so they ask Cao Mou, if Bao Xin and others can solve it, how can they give Yanzhou to Cao?!" ”

Xi Zhicai nodded and replied: "Lord, send troops to rescue and help Jibei to suppress the thieves, this matter is feasible." ”

"Yanzhou Mu, this is just one of them."

"Second, there are hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban thieves in Qingzhou, if you can collect the elite of these people for your own use, you will not have to worry about the source of soldiers."

"Third, if the people coerced by the Yellow Turban Thieves are settled, it will become a great help."

Cao Cao listened to Xi Zhicai's words and laughed: "Zhicai and I coincide. ”

"If this happens, Yanzhou will definitely be able to settle down."

At this time, the first man in official uniform spoke: "If the Duke of Ming becomes the pastor of Yanzhou, he can take Yanzhou as the foundation, set Qingzhou in the north, fight against Yuan Shao, and reject Yuan Shu in the south." ”

"If you stay in the north, then the Han family will have nothing to worry about."

Cao Cao said with a smile: "What Wen Ruo said is exactly, wait for us to sweep away the world, and return the world to peace." ”

Xun Yu was overjoyed when he saw Cao Cao say this, and then said: "The Yellow Turban thieves coerced the people, and what they said was not to produce, just loot, not a long-term solution. ”

"There are hundreds of thousands of yellow turban thieves, and there are millions of people under them."

"Yu heard that Dong Zhuo of Chang'an, and ordered Hou Huang Wan to implement the policy of a tuntian."

"If the yellow turban thief breaks, we might as well follow suit, so that the resettlement of the displaced people can have the effect of deep roots."

Cao Cao, who was originally in a good mood, asked Dong Zhuo's name, and his face instantly became gloomy.

"Wen Ruo, I asked you before what Dong Zhuo should do now to coerce the Son of Heaven and occupy the land of Guanlong."

"Wen Ruo once said that Dong Zhuo was cruel and unkind, and he would inevitably die due to misfortune."

"Now that Dong Zhuo has changed his past actions in Luoyang, in addition to winning over Huang Wan, Yang Biao and others, he has also applied this method of Tuntian, what should he do now?"

From Cao Cao's words, it can be known that apparently he also heard about the tuntian system that Dong Xun is now trying out.

Xun Yu frowned, and hesitated: "The Guanlong region connects Liang and Erzhou, Dong Zhuo was born in Liangzhou, he shouldn't want to destroy his reputation in Liangzhou and other places, so he wants to change because of this." ”

"But its nature is difficult to change, for the sake of today, we can only see."

After saying that, Xun Yu glanced at Cao Cao, who was on the top, and was helpless in his heart.

This Dong Zhuo inexplicably changed his temperament, which made him feel inexplicable.

"Alas!"

Cao Cao sighed, "Wang Yun'er is not enough to succeed, and there is more than enough to lose!" ”

"And Na Lu Bu is also a capricious person."

"Wang Yun's trust is not human!"

Cao Cao was full of slander in his heart, but if Wang Yun and Lu Bu directly killed Dong Zhuo, how could there be so many troubles!

At this time, he only listened to the drama and smiled: "Don't worry, don't worry, although Dong Zhuo is powerful now, it is better to worry." ”

"Although it occupies the land of Guanlong, it is unpopular. Earlier, he also preached that Wang Situ had committed rebellion, how could we believe him? ”

"If Dong Zhuo makes a move, we can join Yuan Shao in the north and Yuan Shu in the south to contend with him."

"The fourth generation and three dukes of the Yuan family, protΓ©gΓ©s and former officials are all over the world, and now the two are leading the army outside, and they will have different aspirations after a long time."

"Because Dong Zhuo is here, the two Yuan will definitely be like a sharp edge, and they will definitely take the initiative to contact the lord and attack Dong Zhuo together."

When Cao Cao heard this, he pondered for a moment, then turned his worries into joy, and said with a smile: "What Zhicai said is reasonable. ”

However, he seemed to think of something again, and said in a deep voice: "It's just that Dong Zhuo's account is under Lu Bu, and he has the courage of ten thousand people, and no one in the world is invincible, how should this be good?" ”

Xi Zhicai coughed lightly and replied: "Lord, who is Dong Zhuo?!" ”

"Who is Lu Bu?!"

Without waiting for Cao Cao to speak, Xi Zhicai continued: "Dong Zhuo, Liangzhou tiger wolf!" ”

"Lu Bu, and the state jackal."

"Tigers, wolves, and jackals are ferocious, and if they are released, they will eat people."

"How about Ding Yuan? What about Situ Wang Yun?! ”

"Zhicai expected that Lu Bu would definitely not be willing to live under Dong Zhuo for a long time, tigers, wolves, jackals and dogs would live in the same room, how could there be any reason not to fight?!"

"Hahahaha."

Cao Cao laughed loudly when he heard this, "Listening to Zhicai's words, I don't have to worry about it." "For today's plan, let's first solve the yellow turban thieves who wander Yanzhou."

"The generals will obey!"

Cao Cao shouted loudly, and many people in armor on the right side of the head stood up and saluted: "The last general." ”

In addition to Cao Cao's relatives Cao Ren, Cao Chun, Cao Hong, Xiahou Yuan, and Xiahou Xuan, there are also Li Dian, Le Jin and others.

Cao Cao looked at his generals, these are all his reliance on killing thieves and destroying the enemy.

Cao Cao raised his voice and said: "Prepare for war!" Defeat the Yellow Turban Thieves! ”

"Xiahoudun, I order you to be the vanguard general, lead the army first, supplemented by Li Dian and Le Jin."

Xiahoudun and the three of them shouted together: "The last general will order." ”

"The rest of the people will march with my army."

After everything was arranged, Cao Cao couldn't help but think of Dong Zhuo who was still in Chang'an.

Dong Zhuo's cavalry are all people who have been fighting Hu people at the border for many years, and they can do their best to recruit people who are used to fighting.

If you want to deal with him, it seems that you have to find a way to form your own cavalry.

Cavalry fights infantry, almost one-sided slaughter.

Moreover, the tuntian system piloted by Dong Zhuo is indeed worth emulating, and it will be implemented in the pacification of Yanzhou this time.

While thinking about the future direction, Cao Cao led the army to round with Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei, and began to prepare to crusade against the Yellow Turban thieves who were causing trouble in Yanzhou.
