Cao Cao's unification of the north focused too much on dealing with his big brother Yuan Shao, and his control over some local warlords was quite inadequate.

In addition to Ma Chao and Han Sui, who had fled back to Liangzhou after the defeat of the previous rebellion, there was also an extremely powerful force near his ruling area.

Zang Ba.

Zang Ba's Qingzhou soldiers are one of Cao Jun's troops, and Zang Ba has always maintained a relatively independent identity, and he can selectively execute most of Cao Cao's orders, which can be described as very free.

Zang Ba also gave Cao Cao face, and he has been resolutely obeying Cao Cao's orders over the years, except for his relatively detached identity, he really doesn't have any arrogant appearance of not listening to the court.

But with the death of Xun Yu and Yang Xiu successively, the situation in Xu Du began to be turbulent, and some old ministers of the Han family were no longer willing to obey Cao Pi's orders.

A large group of Qingzhou soldiers all beat their drums and fled back to their hometowns, which directly shook the foundation of Cao's army and caused an extremely bad impact on the main force Cao's army.

Zang Ba said that he didn't know, but how could you say that you don't know about so many things in the world. Cao Pi believed that there must be Zang Ba playing tricks in this, and he had been looking for a suitable opportunity to take away Zang Ba's military power.

But this kind of thing is tantamount to seeking skin with the tiger, no matter how respectful Zang Ba is to the court, he will not directly give up all the soldiers and horses in his hands.

Yun Shan went to look for him, just to test his attitude.

Cao Pi resolutely will not admit that he wants to take away Zang Ba's military power anyway, if Zang Ba obediently hands over the military power, this is a great thing, if Zang Ba is forced to rebel, it will be Yun Shan's own initiative to sabotage the affairs of the imperial court, and then Zang Ba and Yun Shan will be punished.

No matter how you look at Cao Pi, he is not a loss at all, although Yunshan can fight, but he must not be too arrogant in the face of Zang Ba, who is like a bear monster, Cao Pi can't wait to appreciate Yunshan's gray appearance.

is still the same sentence, Cao Pi pays more attention to his own likes and dislikes, as long as he can disgust Yunshan and give him a heavy dismount, Cao Pi doesn't mind making the already chaotic situation even more chaotic.

Anyway, I still have so many strategists under my command, and now is the time to weigh on them and see what they are really capable of.

Cao Xiu told Yun Shan about this with a bitter face, thinking that Yun Shan would be very unhappy, but he didn't expect Yun Shan to bow his head slightly.

"Okay, since King Wei trusts me so much, I'm going to find General Zang Ba, and I must let him explain this matter clearly."

"This ......"

Cao Xiu secretly screamed in his heart that it was not good, he knew Cao Pi's character very well, if Yun Shan was very dissatisfied with this matter, Cao Pi would definitely insist that Yun Shan be fully responsible for this matter, but if Yun Shan was not dissatisfied but was very happy, Cao Pi would definitely be secretly suspicious in his heart, and in the end it would be a trouble.

However, Yunshan agreed so happily, if it can really solve Zang Ba's problem, it is also a good thing, Cao Xiu has been looking forward to solving the many problems left by Cao Cao before and after his death, so that Yunshan and Cao Pi can reconcile, and the Cao family, which is twisted into a fist, can successfully complete the process of replacing Han.

Before that, he has to try his best to ensure that Cao Pi, the little brother, does not get sick, and it is still important to have a great cause.

。

There are also many people in the Cao clan who are sick like Cao Pi, and as soon as Yunshan left Guanzhong, Ding Fei couldn't wait to carry out his plan.

In his capacity as a lieutenant of the military academy and in the name of counting the soldiers, he demanded that the Yunshan Army be reorganized and adjusted.

Previously, when Yunshan faced the invasion of Ma Chao and Han Sui, he divided the Guanzhong Army into three categories: the main army, the local soldiers, and the militia.

Ding Fei has a lot of complaints about this matter, he thinks that there is no need for the local soldiers to exist at all, the battle is over, only a few main soldiers are left, and the rest are all disbanded in Tuntian near Guanzhong is the right way.

Yunshan also has to maintain a bunch of local soldiers, no matter how you look at it, it is a waste of financial and material resources, and this person has the mind of mercenary self-respect.

As Cao Cao's fellow countryman and a military captain, Ding Fei felt that it was very necessary for him to completely pull out this maladministration.

It can cut off the foundation of Yunshan's hard work and return everything to Cao Jun's control, which will be of great help to Cao Jun's complete control of Yongzhou.

He enthusiastically told his proposal to the overseer Xiahou Ba, full of thought that Xiahou Ba would definitely listen to his proposal, and the two joined forces to slowly encroach on Yunshan's generals, but Ding Fei never expected that Xiahou Ba actually put on a straight face and said calmly:

"General Yun's soldiers, how can we know? The so-called Xiao Gui Cao Sui, General Yun's soldiers can repel Ma Chao Han Sui must have a cleverness, if I change his method of using troops without authorization, in case of a big defeat, wouldn't it be to push the people of Guanzhong into the fire? I can't do that. ”

Ding Fei rolled his eyes, it wasn't Xiahouba's identity here, he must have quarreled with him.

"Ahem, Zhongquan, you know that.

General Yun joined the army not long ago, and before that, it was Lejin's old department. Now that Le Jin is fierce in Jingzhou, the tail is too big to fall, and these soldiers and horses under General Yun do not listen to our command at all.

Now that the imperial court has just recovered Yongzhou, we are also for the sake of the embankment General Yun like Ma Teng Han Sui, and this is also for the people and General Yun. ”

Xiahouba said quite calmly:

"General Yun is humble and open, and masters like Chen Changwen are willing to provide him with advice, and my father also asked me to listen to General Yun's ideas more and not make random claims.

Now that General Yun has asked for this, if Captain Ding wants to change it, it is better to write to General Yun first and ask for advice before making a proposal. ”

Ding Fei's seven tricks are smoking, I really don't understand how Xiahou Miaocai has such an unenlightened son.

Xiahouba's status is not high, but Guanzhong is quite chaotic, so he relies on family affairs to get into the position of overseer.

Before Yun Shan left, he entrusted him with military affairs, and he should consider the Cao family and slowly remove Yun Shan's influence in the Guanzhong army.

But instead of doing so, he has always let the policies left by Yunshan spread in the army, making the style and bearing of the Guanzhong army completely different from other Cao troops.

However, Ding Fei was also very helpless about this, he was only Cao Cao's fellow countryman, and he did not belong to Cao Cao's clan, so he really couldn't be the lord of Xiahou.

Thinking about it, he can only use a few crooked tricks.

On this day, he found Chang Diao, the general of Zhenxi, and asked Chang Diao to use his school affairs to deliver news to Xu Du, saying that Ma Teng Han was going to invade again, and requested that the Guanzhong army under Xiahou Ba be included in Chang Diao's command.

Xiahou Ba doesn't enter, but his status is not high after all, Chang Diao is different, this person is stupid, incompetent and quite cowardly, Ding Fei is confident that he can control an incompetent person like Chang Diao, and in the end he can still control the entire Guanzhong.

It's also for your own good.

Chang Diao looked directly at Ding Fei, who looked pious in front of him, and suddenly showed a hint of cunning on his face:

"So what's in it for me?"

Ding Fei sighed, and simply told Chang Diao the truth:

"Cheng asked me to stay from time to time, saying that if something happened to him, he could let me write directly to Shizi. Now the prince is the king of Wei, and he has written to me to support me before. ”

As he spoke, Ding Fei took out a letter from his bosom and slowly sent it to Chang Diao:

"This is a letter written by the King of Wei, asking me to supervise the military of Yongzhou for Yunshan."

He looked at Chang Diao in front of him with a majestic face, and when he saw that Chang Diao didn't seem to react, he couldn't help but be a little anxious:

"Master Chang, didn't you see that this is a letter from King Wei?"

Chang Diao came back to his senses at this time, he took the letter and glanced at it hurriedly, and said with a smile:

"Oh, it turned out to be the order of the King of Wei - what about the benefits of the general?"

Ding Fei was stunned, and his heart was worthy of being a person who was besieged by Ma's super army and still wanted to benefit himself, Chang Diao was like this, and he really couldn't fix Ding Fei for a while.

"As long as the general is willing to report the attack of Ma Chao and Han Sui to the King of Wei, and then I will play the King of Wei, and then I will be the master of the Chang Army as the pastor of Yongzhou, how about it?"

Chang Diao rolled his eyes, and said in his heart that if you say something else, I may be able to cooperate with you, if I become a Yongzhou pastor, Guan Ping's group of cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods will bury me if they are not appropriate, and then blame Ma Chao, I am really stupid, right?

"Well, you go back, I'll think about it again." Chang Diao waved his hand impatiently to shut up Ding Fei.

Since Ding Fei revealed his identity, Chang Diao has never been so disrespectful to him as he is today, which Ding Fei never expected.

"Why don't we discuss it, I will report this matter to the imperial court, and you will ask the King of Wei to transfer me back to Xudu, how about it?"

"This ......"

Ding Fei saw Chang Diao so greedy before, and thought that he would definitely ask for more conditions for himself, but he didn't expect Chang Diao's condition to be transferred back to Xu Du, what did he want to do?

He was a little dazed for a while, and seeing Chang Diao's expression becoming more and more impatient, he quickly gritted his teeth and said:

"Okay, if Chang Junshi wants to go back to Xudu, I will write a letter to King Wei. That...... Then this matter ......"

"You write a letter to King Wei first, and I will naturally help you if King Wei agrees. It shouldn't be bad for a few days, right? ”

Chang Diao is the general of Zhenxi, and his status far exceeds that of Ding Fei, once he is completely unafraid of the so-called identity behind Ding Fei, Ding Fei is really helpless against him.

He was so helpless that he could only humbly bow to Chang Diao and leave, not knowing why Chang Diao suddenly seemed to be a different person.

After he left a few steps, Chang Diao quickly stood up, pushed open a secret door by the wall, and nodded to the people inside:

"Mr. Yuanzhi, what do you think of this gentleman?"

Xu Shu, who had a thin face, had just secretly arrived in Chang'an two days ago, and with his guidance, Chang Diao's confidence immediately increased.

When Ding Fei asked to see him today, Xu Shu had basically guessed his plan, and instructed Chang Diao to pretend to be careless no matter what Ding Fei said, and when he was in a dilemma, he took the initiative to ask the person behind Ding Fei to come forward and bring Chang Diao back to Xu Du.

Ding Fei really agreed, so Chang Diao was overjoyed.

"You have to remember that after Ding Fei's letter comes back, you must leave immediately, without the slightest delay. Don't make your own decisions and make trouble, do you hear? ”

"Yes, yes, Mr. Yuanzhi said yes, when did the young general not listen to Mr.'s orders?" Chang Diao smiled all over his face, but he secretly pondered the details of the retreat in his heart-

When Ma Chao attacked before, he coveted those cattle and horses and almost lost his life, this time he wanted to leave, and these cattle and horses should also be taken away, otherwise wouldn't it be the fright he suffered in vain?

However, of course, it is inconvenient to tell Xu Shu about this matter, and it will take a lot of time to pass the letter horizontally and vertically, Xu Shu only said that he could not delay after receiving the reply, but did not say that he could not delay these days.

I hurriedly took all the cattle and horses away, and even if I was dismissed and went home, I would be a rich man.
