"Old General." Cao Cao handed the letter back and said apologetically: "I blame me for this matter, when Brother Han captured that Sanniang, his eyes were wrong, I should have been vigilant at the time, but I never thought that he was so intense." ”

Liu Yanqing pursed his lips and sneered repeatedly: "It's not once or twice that I have the idea of beating people's wives, but now that I have started a beautiful woman, I naturally don't have the heart to be a fighter, it's just that everyone has their own fate." ”

Seeing that there was no one around, Lao Liu scolded in a low voice: "Dog's day, I actually got a mother!" There was some envy in his tone.

Cao Cao was amused, remembering that Liu Yanqing had never seen Duan Niangniang's true face, so he had this remark - but he couldn't say for sure, the taste of the Western Army was difficult to say.

Liu Yanqing scolded him, burned Han Shizhong's letter, and asked the clerk to fill in the word missing in the name book.

In every war, to a greater or lesser extent, there are inevitably missing people. If you don't see anyone alive or dead, you're missing. Since he is missing, if he reappears in the future, it is naturally very reasonable.

The word missing can be regarded as a first-line opportunity for Liu Yanqing to help his subordinates.

confessed that Han Shizhong had escaped, and Liu Yanqing was worried about the aftermath of the war in Fangzhou: now that Wang Qing is dead, the traitors in the city are either killed or captured, but Fangzhou first cut off the water vein, and then suffered a fire, and has become a ghost domain, and tens of thousands of people have no homes and livelihoods, and they are howling day and night.

Seeing that Liu Yanqing was helpless, Cao Cao offered a plan: "Don't worry, old general, in the opinion of the last general, at this time, you and I should divide the army into two ways, one route is commanded by the old general, go back to Xiangyang to meet Tong Shuai, break the Jingnan army, recover Jingnan, and then return to Bianjing to prepare for Duan Wu, and the rest of the matter here will be handed over to the last general for disposal." ”

Liu Yanqing's government affairs ability is mediocre, and he was about to abandon these people, but when he heard this, he smiled and said: "Then these people, you may be properly settled?" ”

Cao Cao destroyed the city and destroyed the county in the past, and he didn't know how much he had done to settle the people, so he was in his chest, and said with a smile: "The last general will lead another road, first Ping Yun'an 13 counties, Wang Qing is dead, and the counties should be passed on." He ordered each county to select local people of high moral integrity and respect, temporarily take over official posts, and then set aside areas, build some houses, house thousands of people, and seize the property of thieves to support them, so that tens of thousands of people can settle down. Then I invaded Nanfeng, and after pacification, I rushed to Xijing and attacked Duan Wu with the army. ”

Liu Yanqing couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard what he said, and held Cao Cao's hands and said, "Since this is the case, let the old man be lazy." These people are unfortunate, born in war, and it is not easy to survive, and the whole battle is the general. ”

Cao Cao Zhengse said: "They all belong to the Chinese Miao descent, and the last general will dare not do their best?" ”

At that moment, Liu Yanqing took Wang Qing's head, and Fang Han, Qiu Xiang, and Shi Jun, several high-ranking thieves, divided 10,000 troops and left, leaving most of his subordinates to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao ordered the military tent to be divided, and the people were allowed to live, and sent Lu Junyi and other generals, each leading 1,000 troops, to drink the surrender of the counties of Yun'an Prefecture.

He also released the woodcutter hunter Jia who had been caught before, and one person gave ten yuan to return to his hometown.

A few days later, Lu Junyi and others reported one after another, and all the counties in the state were surrendered, and all the local big families were temporarily appointed as county commanders, and how to turn back will be arranged by the imperial court.

Cao Cao was overjoyed, ordered the counties to draw out the area, let the displaced people in Fangzhou settle down, and gave the thieves and property to them respectively, and the people's hearts were at peace.

By the end of June, all the 13 counties of Yun'an were stable, and the fathers and elders praised Cao Cao's benevolence and love for the people.

Cao Cao saw that Yun'an was settled, and was about to send troops to Nanfeng, Tong Guan suddenly sent a military book, the Tao was Li Huai, Du Bai suddenly had infighting, Li Huai led an army of 20,000, crossed the Han River and fled, nowhere to be found, Du Bai led more than 10,000 troops, occupied Jingnan City, self-proclaimed general, and the remaining thieves were scattered.

Tong Guan led the army to attack Jingnan City, and he was worried about it, Bianjing suddenly won five gold medals, but it was Duan Wu who led 50,000 troops to conquer Xijing, coercing Bianliang, and the Son of Heaven panicked and urgently summoned Tong Guan back to the army to rescue.

Tong Guan was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly collected his troops and turned back to Bianjing, and sent a letter to Cao Cao to lead the people of his headquarters to quickly recover Nanfeng and Jingnan, and then go to Xijing to meet.

That night, Cao Cao gathered Lu Junyi and others to discuss matters, and found a letter in his arms - it turned out that when Han Shizhong left, in addition to leaving a book for Liu Yanqing, he also quietly left a book for Cao Cao, the content of the letter was simple, it was the place where Wang Qing hid the treasure that Duan Sanniang had informed.

Cao Cao said: "Liangshan has been raising troops for a long time, and this wealth is not to be missed." Brother Yanqing, you go to the army to select a hundred loyal and honest, homeless and tired, and after my army leaves, you quietly dig up the treasure and transport it to Liangshan. ”

Yan Qing received the order, Cao Cao took a look at a few brothers, taught him to take Liu Yuanlai, who had been captured before, and said to him: "You fought hard for Wang Qing, it can be seen that you are a loyal and brave man, but Wang Qing takes you as an outcast, which can be described as unjust." Now that Wang Qing is dead, I will pity you for being a good man, do you have the intention of surrendering? ”

After hearing this, Liu Yuan sighed: "I am a rebel, since the general is willing to spare me, why don't you surrender?" ”

Cao Cao was overjoyed, released his shackles, and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, let Brother Sun An be the main general, and Liu Yuan will be his deputy, leading 5,000 troops to collect Nanfeng." ”

Liu Yuan thanked him, got up and said: "Nanfeng's guard there is the 'Dragon King of Hanshui', who is known to the world, this person can hold seventy or eighty catties of hard crossbows, and make a Fang Tian halberd, land and water, are extraordinary." The two lieutenant generals under his command are two brothers, one is 'swallowing boats' Hu Jing and the other is 'drum waves' Hu Xian, who also have skills. These three people are all friends with the last general, and now that Wang Qing is dead, he will be willing to surrender. ”

Cao Cao listened, put down his thoughts, and said: "In this case, Nanfeng counties, according to the old practice of Yun'an, after they descended, they joined forces and arrived at Fancheng along the Han River. ”

Sun An and Liu Yuan led 5,000 people to the north to Nanfeng, while Cao Cao collected the Fangzhou boats and led 15,000 people along the Nanhe River, into the Han River, and through Xiangyang, all the way down the river, and arrived in Jingnan in less than three days.

When Du Bai saw the Song army approaching the city, he couldn't help but be furious, opened the city gate and came out, and shouted: "Tong Guan has an army of 100,000 people, and he has been killed and retreated by this general. ”

Lu Junyi jumped out of the battle and shouted: "Ignorant traitor, Wang Qing is still dead, what kind of prestige do you have?" ”

When Du Yan saw Lu Junyi, he was even more angry, and shouted: "Last time, Xiangyang City didn't kill you, but chased you here to die!" "Standing up and killing with eight snake spears, Lu Junyi is not afraid of him, and he fights with him with a spear.

These two chess opponents, will meet good talents, more than 30 together are indistinguishable, Du Yan has a pioneer named Zhuo Mao, waving a mace to help the battle, Cao Cao here Geng Gong shot out of the horse, spear against Zhuo Mao.

Fighting again for one or twenty times, Cao Cao was about to send Xu Guanzhong and Zhu Jing into battle to attack, suddenly there was a big chaos on the other side's city wall, Cao Cao looked up, but it was many people, holding table corners, kitchen knives, wooden sticks and other things, and coaxing to hit the city, the first man was particularly extravagant, this person was eight feet tall, holding a single knife, killing one person in one step, striding forward to kill, the thieves were difficult to pick up their edge, and the killed step by step retreated.

The man went straight to the thief soldier handsome flag, raised a knife in his hand, cut down the "Du" word flag, the big flag fluttered and the flagpole, knocked down from the city, the people immediately cheered in unison, the thieves became more and more frightened, hesitated and did not dare to step forward.

I saw that the man jumped on the battlements and shouted downward: "A certain is Xiao Jiasui, today he leads the people of Hecheng to kill thieves, and the officials and generals outside, please enter the city quickly!" ”

After that, this man grabbed a rope and jumped down to the city, and many people in the city grabbed the other end of the rope, and he jumped down from the city like a fairy in the sky, and his sword fell, and he had already cut down a piece of the soldiers in front of the city gate, and he was alone, and kept the city gate unclosed.

Xu Guanzhong and Zhu Jing cheered in unison: "Good man! Cao Cao was also surprised and delighted, and with a wave of his hand, all the troops came out together.

Seeing that there was civil strife in the city, Du Yan was shocked in his heart, and he made a false move, wanting to retreat, Lu Junyi laughed and said, "Where to go?" Suddenly, he exerted his strength and entangled Du Po to death.

Zhuo Mao successfully forced Geng Gong away, and Pegasus went to the city to kill Xiao Jiasui.

Xiao Jiasui was not in a hurry, picked up a spear on the ground, looked at Zhuo Mao rushing closer, and suddenly raised his hand and threw it.

There is a sub-teaching: Wang Qing has become a ghost, and Du Bai still refuses to surrender before the battle. The strong men of the city rose up, and the sword in his hand shone brightly.
