"Hahaha!!" Xi Zhicai immediately looked up to the sky and laughed, this is already very clear, when the lord set up a five-color stick, he beat a lot of scholars.

Even if it was a eunuch close to the Son of Heaven and a celebrity of the scholar clan, once he violated the law, it caused an uproar at that time.

Of course, it didn't take long for the lord to go to Dunqiu to be the county magistrate.

After an extremely bleak life.

It wasn't until a few years later that the court hired him to transfer him back, and there were many Yuan Shao's helpers.

If you say that the years are all grand.

At this time, the two best friends looked at each other and smiled, and some words were like wine jars when they drank to such an extent, and it was time to see the bottom.

"Bonghyo won't regret it, right?"

Xi Zhicai raised the last look again, raised his hands and asked Fengxiao.

Guo Jia had a bright smile on his face, raised his glass and touched it, and drank it all.

"If you only regret it, how tired you should be."

Guo Jia held his upper body, approached Xi Zhicai and said: "People should do their best, not short of their ambitions, I, Guo Fengxiao's chosen lord, will never be wrong." ”

"When you and I were in Yingchuan Hut, we also said that there is no one in the world who appreciates it, so we will spend the rest of our lives by cultivating and selling wine, but if there is an appreciator, we can pay for it."

"Regardless of life, what else is terrible in the world?!"

Xi Zhicai's eyes froze, and Zhan Yan also smiled, he just likes Feng Xiao's temperament, but do good deeds, don't ask about the future, and once the person who follows is determined, he will never waver.

As he said back then, for the sake of appreciating his confidant, he could not live his life.

The future reputation is dangerous, and what is there to fear.

"Bethany is the one you have elected."

At this time, he suddenly mentioned Xu Bowen, which made Xi Zhicai stunned slightly.

"Yes, Bowen is the man I recommended, and I used to regard him as another filial piety."

The corners of Guo Jia's mouth rose, his eyes narrowed slightly, and said: "So at this time, he must be planning something for the lord, the Xu Bowen you know, but he is strict with himself and has never made any mistakes." ”

"I don't believe that he is a wine bag and a rice bag, and he gets the title of Xiaoli, and forgets his heart."

"I don't believe it either."

"This treacherous Xu Capital, there must still be some wind and rain, wait for everything to settle down, before you can really control it."

Guo Jia knows very well that the current Xu Capital has just settled down, and the Son of Heaven is coming, but secretly the situation is actually changing very quickly, and the intrigue is far from over.

If there is no stability at home, how can we calm the troubled times outside the country?

In this way, every strategist should be using his own strategy to stabilize the situation.

Those who are truly talented in the country have long been in a clear place.

"The little lotus showed its sharp corners...... A dragonfly has already stood on its head, you say this dragonfly...... Is it the Qingting Marquis of the Dark Dynasty? ”

Xi Zhicai's eyes froze, "Who did it?" Where did this poem come from? ”

Guo Jia smiled lightly, "The lord said the day before yesterday to listen to me, Bowen did it." ”

"Oh......" Xi Zhicai was slightly stunned, with his understanding of Xu Zhen, he immediately felt that this was probably just a simple coincidence, and said it casually.

……

That night.

Inside the Sikong Mansion.

After Cao Cao dealt with official affairs in various places, he heard about the report that Cao Chun had come to report, and he had some doubts in his heart.

stared at him suspiciously for a long time, "Is it really what Bowen said?" ”

"Yes, he came to me today to talk about it."

"Hmph," Cao Cao sneered, got up and paced with his hands behind his back, and after walking back and forth for a long time, he looked thoughtful and said to Cao Chun: "Do you think there are hidden dangers in this trip?" Afraid of my defeat? ”

"I can even welcome the Son of Heaven, and many generals can make a decision on the spot, and change the route to welcome the Son of Heaven into Xudu, and I can't take Zhang Xiu? What's more, Zhang Ji has just died, how can Zhang Xiu stabilize the situation, if the soldiers and horses are not collected at this time, when will they stay? ”

When Cao Cao learned the news, he understood that if he went to Wancheng, he would definitely be able to take Zhang Xiu under his command when he had not yet gained a foothold.

In the future, we will gradually change the guard, not only to make it attached, but also to make Zhang Xiu a rear barrier to prevent Liu Biao.

This matter is considered to be of great importance, and if Zhang Xiu can help him, he can solve one of the worries.

Cao Cao was so eloquent and strategic, he naturally understood that the battle between him and Yuan Shao had already begun, not only to compete for the support of the major forces around him, but more importantly, to compete for time.

Whoever solves the worries first will be the first to make reserves, plan the route, and prepare for the big war.

No matter how important this battle is, it should be an extremely important link in each other's strategies.

Yuan Shao didn't know, but Cao Cao knew that he would one day cross his big brother.

And Yuan Shao, it is likely that in the past few years, he has not regarded himself as a strong opponent.

That's the advantage.

And there is an edict from the Son of Heaven, as long as there is nothing else wrong, you can buy time, so that Yuan Shao cannot attack at will, at least he must be famous.

Cao Cao thought of these in a complicated mood, and couldn't help but be firm again in his heart, Wancheng must go, and it is absolutely impossible to make the relationship between Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu too close.

Yuan Shao's people can't be allowed to go to Wancheng first.

"Hmm...... Zihe, what do you think about this? ”

"Sikong, the last general thinks that since there is such a speculation, it is not an exaggeration to make this arrangement, Bowen rarely asks for people, since he has come to ask me today, no matter what the reason, he should think about it."

"Good!"

Cao Cao made a big hand for a while, and said quite arrogantly: "Don't be afraid of the loss of grain and grass, you will lead 8,000 soldiers and horses, along Anding County, and then respond, and wait for my soldiers and horses to arrive in Wancheng, stationed outside to respond." ”

"Thank you, Lord."

Cao Chun clenched his fists and left.

After he left, Cao Cao shook his head with a wry smile and laughed.

"This Bowen is really getting less and less daring."

"However, they are still worried about my safety, but I feel it."

Cao Cao thought about it again in his heart, but still didn't find any hidden dangers in Wancheng, just Zhang Xiu was nothing, and it was when his uncle died and there was no foreign aid.

Although Liu Biao made peace with him, he would never send troops to help.

Thinking about it in the end, he was sure that Berwen must have thought too much.

"Being cautious by nature is not a bad thing."

"But if you have the chance to win, you have to strike a blow, and the soldiers are fast! If you have three points of certainty, you can give it a go, and if you have seven points of certainty, you can try your best to do it! If only do what you are sure of! Nothing will come of it! ”

"What's the difference between this and Yuan Shao!? Scheming and hesitating, whether marching or strategizing, should be brave and diligent, and do everything in their ability. ”

Cao Cao had this thought in his heart, and immediately stood with his hands in his hands, looking at it calmly.

……

Night.

In Xu Zhen's backyard.

The spear was a little cold, like a spiritual snake, bypassing Xu Chu's big knife and pointing at his shoulder.

While!

Xu Chu blocked with a horizontal knife, bullied closely, and slashed the big knife downward with both hands, but because he was practicing with Xu Zhen, he didn't dare to do his best.

He also left the strength to stop the broadsword, and he didn't dare to do it with all his might.

But when the big knife was about to reach Xu Zhen's door, at this time, he moved his footsteps, swung the spear to the right, and the whole person took advantage of the situation to distance a little, dodging Xu Chu's slash.

Then look back at the moon, go around to the left and then sweep it down.

This caught Xu Chu off guard, and he took a step further on the side in fright, standing diagonally with the handle of the big knife and in front of him.

While!

Another sound of gold and iron.

Xu Chu took a few steps back.

And Xu Zhen was on the move, and after the spear bounced off, he turned around and stabbed down three ways, and then picked up, all of which were basic moves, and with his footsteps, his strength gradually increased.

made Xu Chu gradually difficult to resist, so he could only keep retreating.

Until he retreated to the wall, Xu Zhen stabbed obliquely again with a shot, and it was already as fast as lightning.

But it hovered in front of him.

At this moment, Xu Chu realized that the prince had also been staying.

[You fought a close battle and won the victory, self-discipline +160]

[Current self-discipline value: 3160]

[Current streak: 4]

"The next time you win, you can get a continuous extra reward."

Xu Zhen said secretly in his heart.

It needs to be strengthened.

Farm life during the day, and force and self-discipline at night.

Xu Chu was secretly frightened, and at this time, he leaned against the wall with a big sword, and immediately hugged his fists and said: "Junhou's martial arts are really strong, it seems that Dian Wei is not complimenting." ”

If you fight on the battlefield, you may not be able to win in a short period of time.

Such a prince is really a minister?!

Although he is both civil and military, when he is on the march, he is basically taken by the lord for the sake of his ministers, rather than leading the troops by the generals.

It is said that the last time he went to Runan, it was the first time he led troops.

The first time he led the troops, he was already able to command such a general, and his prestige and charm in the army were comparable to that of famous generals, which had to be admired.

"Alas," Xu Zhen sighed slightly when he heard Dian Wei, "Zhongkang, you don't owe any favors, do you?" ”

Xu Chu smiled, "I owe the prince a favor." ”

"That's good."

The thoughts in Dian Wei's heart, Cao Ang said it again today.

Then Xu Zhen had a lot of entrustment, and even planned to follow him as a military advisor.

But was persuaded.

The imperial city is uneasy, and the responsibility of ruling Jinwu is also important.

Especially this year, there can be no half-spread pool.

still has to sit here, and the family of the scholars, Xu Zhen has never looked down on them, they have not fallen for more than 400 years, standing at the top of the Han Dynasty.

Even many families are more than protégés because of the kindness of the Lord, and in some eras, even their power is greater than that of the Son of Heaven.

If nothing else, let's just say that the Taiping Dao incident back then was not known whether it was related to the party, and now it is no longer something that can be examined, and there is no need to explore it.

But these things are enough to show that even if Xu is now in the hands of the lord, the scholars must not be taken lightly.

"Junhou, why have you been worried about the matter of Dian Wei?"

"What do I have to worry about, I just care about my daily duties and enjoy the rest of my life."

Xu Zhen laughed a few times with a deep gaze, "He is so brave, he will definitely be able to do it." ”

……

Autumn harvest.

Yanzhou and Xuzhou are still steadily increasing their incomes, and their warehouses are full of rice.

This year, the forage increased, and the grazing horses also grew well, so that wandering merchants began to walk between the two places, selling the rest of the goods.

Because of this, Xudu gradually became stable, and all the grain was sent to Yuzhou and hoarded.

And Liu Bei is worthy of his name, during this period of time, Corporal Lixian is not in a hurry.

There were good harvests in various places, so when the grain was sent to Xudu, Cao Cao had to show the Son of Heaven, ask for commendation, and praise the edict, and his reputation was boosted.

But out of diligence and official duties, he has not yet come to the court to see the Son of Heaven.

Naturally, I didn't come this time.

And Cao Cao, of course, didn't have time to invite.

After the autumn harvest, so as not to have many dreams at night, Cao Cao abandoned the original plan of spring ploughing and went directly to the south, heading towards Nanyang.

After knowing that Zhang Xiu was in Wancheng, he immediately crossed the river and set up camp.

Cao Cao sent Dian Wei as the vanguard, and before the siege of the city, he fought with many generals under Zhang Xiu's command, although Zhang Xiu's soldiers and horses were brave, but they were defeated by Dian Wei.

There were many people who were killed, but Cao Cao also saw that Zhang Xiu was a good leader in battle, and his title of Marquis of Xuanwei was by no means obtained by flattering the Son of Heaven from his uncle's generation.

So I moved my heart to love talents and have the heart to solicit.

At this time, Zhang Xiu's adviser Jia Xu persuaded several times, watching Cao Cao's soldiers and horses, and knowing that at this time he had no worries in the rear, and Yuan Shao had no time to attack his Xu and Yan two states, so he asked Zhang Xiu to accept it when he saw it.

Day Twelfth.

When Cao Cao's army was about to besiege Wancheng, Zhang Xiu led the crowd to surrender, opened the city gate, and welcomed Cao Cao at the gate of Wancheng.

Greeted with Jia Xu, during which in order to show determination and obey Jia Xu's orders, everyone did not bring a sword, did not tie the armor, and placed the camp on the side outside the city.

Only 3,000 soldiers and horses remained in the city to guard the security.

In order to greet Cao Cao's honor guard.

In such a battle, Cao Cao could see at a glance that there was no suspicion, and this embroidery was probably sincere, not repeated.

Moreover, Yuan Shao's envoy would definitely not be able to arrive so quickly, and Zhang Xiu had not yet seen Yuan Shao's people.

As for Liu Biao?

Cao Cao did not come to his aid during the war, and he will not come now, but he may take advantage of the chaos to cut off his way back.

Everything went smoothly.

Before Cao Cao dismounted, he only sighed and said one sentence to Dian Wei, "Bowen is too worried." ”

"Of course, it's a lot of worry! The elder brother should be too cautious, so he will speak many times, is it possible, because he is now in a high position, so he is reluctant to be damaged! A clear voice sounded in the crowd, although the voice was not loud, but it made Dian Wei listen to it all over his ears.

So I looked back and saw a young man in his teens talking.

The expression was quite relaxed and leisurely, as if he wanted to show something, this look frightened Cao Ang on the side and hurriedly scolded, "An Min! Don't talk nonsense!! ”

"Okay, okay, what my brother said, I just said it casually, not to offend Brother Berwen."

"Hehe, but this trip did go well."

He lowered his voice and didn't look at Dian Wei at all, but just smiled with Cao Ang and said, "When I go back, I can be rewarded for my meritorious deeds." ”

"An people, don't be complacent, don't be happy."

"Got it, brother."

Cao Anmin put away his smile, but his eyebrows were observing the people around him, especially Cao Cao, observing words and expressions so that he could do something at any time.

In fact, he also saw Fang Cai Dianwei's eyes, and he was indeed a little nervous in his heart, so he hurriedly explained that he was not offended.

But I was relieved to think that my life was also saved by General Dian Wei back then.

In his opinion, this southern expedition is here to make merits.

So he brought his brother Ziyu, and then specially transferred General Dian Wei, who had a good relationship with his brother, to escort him.

You can follow for a piece of the pie.

Then this trip is to show the tricks, maybe you can please your uncle, and go back to praise the clan.

This is just a small episode.

After everyone dismounted, Cheng Yu followed Cao Cao all the way to Zhang Xiu.

At this time, Zhang Xiu sincerely returned, and his heart gradually changed from apprehension to stability.

Attached to Cao Cao, there should be no need to be displaced in the future, if you can get merit in the battle, you can continue to establish your fame, and you can live up to your uncle's trust.

Zhang Xiu was more worried about the more than 10,000 soldiers and horses who followed behind him.

Although there are a lot of additions in Wancheng, the old department has been loyal to follow for many years.

There must always be a good ending.

As a leader, it is not just a prestige, but also a responsibility.

"The sinner general Zhang Xiu, I have seen Cao Gong!"

"Okay, Xiu'er! I have also heard of your ability to lead troops," Cao Cao looked left and right, helped him up with a smile, and said loudly: "If Zhang Xiu helps me, great things can be done!" ”

"Sin will not dare to be punished!" Zhang Xiu clenched her fists bitterly, got up again and made a gesture of please, "Please Cao Gong into the city, I have set up a banquet to welcome you." ”

"Into town."

No substitutions! Isn't it just that I'm a little longer now, and I will never change people! I'm going to finish it!! I have basically no rest all day long, and I'm all in the book!

I'm generally very modest, and when a normal reader scolds me, I'll make corrections secretly, and then redouble my seriousness. So by the way, ask for some data, begging, love readers~

Don't be mischievous anymore, I'll ride a horse and rush ~~~
