Chapter 44: It's been gathering momentum for a long time! What we have been waiting for today is this!

"How could Wenbo value this?"

Cao Chun asked curiously on the side.

The people recruited by Chen Liu naturally knew some advantages of the terrain, but that was Zhang Miao's territory, and they didn't need to go back to garrison.

"Cultivate it, what if it helps?"

Xun Xiao said with a smile.

"Oh......"

……

Seven hundred people were quickly elected, and when the news reached Cao Cao's ears, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It just so happened that he was discussing the transfer of grain and grass with Xun Yu, and immediately laughed after hearing the news.

"You see, you always say that Wenbo has some shafts, and he is to blame."

Xun Yu shook his head with a wry smile, and arched his hand: "Below, thank you for the lord's love, but Wen Bozhen doesn't know how to govern the army, and he doesn't want to govern the army, although these thousand people are taken by Taishou, alas...... It's better to choose a day for the generals. ”

"It's okay!" Cao Cao supported the case with both hands, the smile on his face remained the same, and he was even a little leisurely, "I, the Cao clan, the clan general within the Xiahou clan, will never say anything." ”

"As long as I'm here, Wenbo won't be criticized for this."

Xun Yu was silent, his eyes blinking.

After a long time, he said: "I'm afraid of other people's ......"

"There are many local scholars in Yanzhou, and no one has ever received such grace."

"What are you afraid of," Cao Cao waved his hand, "am I the kind of person who is afraid of what people say?" Xun Xiao is talented, you look at the horses he raised, fat and strong horses, infinite strength, most of them are good horses that can be used for thousands of miles. ”

"For this alone, give him a thousand guards, and Dian Wei will be in charge."

Anyway, he didn't want me to ride a tiger and a leopard!

Cao Cao sat up slightly, if he asked for a tiger and leopard to ride, although he was distressed, but it would not be easy to take back the military order he said for a while, so he could only wait for a future to find a way to get it back.

Unexpectedly, this kid's heart was quite transparent, and he knew that I was reluctant, so he directly asked for the green head Xinding sent by Chen Liu.

Well......

It's going to happen.

"However, at the beginning, I suspected that Meng Zhuo would secretly betray me, so I paid special attention to his recruitment this year...... He gave it away, but it made me feel guilty. ”

Xun Yu was naturally curious when he heard this, he also knew the relationship between Cao Cao and Zhang Miao, Cao Cao would not have the slightest doubt in the past, why is this happening now.

Is it because, after killing the celebrity Bian Rang, did you start to be suspicious?

Sometimes, being suspicious can save lives, but sometimes being suspicious can be chilling.

"Lord, why do you think Meng Zhuo wants to rebel?"

"Intuition."

"Straight ......" Xun Yu looked up at Cao Cao, and continued: "A lot of minerals and timber have been taken from the vicinity of Dong'e and Fan County, and now they can be built into dwellings for the displaced people to resettle. ”

"In this way, the storehouse of grain can be built between these roads."

Let's get down to business, my lord!

You can have a snack!

"Hmm...... Fortunately, this matter will be handled by you, I will go to the barracks, and in about a few days, I will also send troops. ”

Now that the granary has been decided, the next thing is the grain road, which is what Xun Yu is good at.

The soldiers and horses have not moved, the grain and grass go first, and the internal affairs and financial rights in the rear, with Xun Yu's pen and vision, he will definitely be able to do everything without mistakes.

Cao Cao was naturally relieved.

Previously, the tiger and leopard rider had been led by Cheng Yu and went to the vicinity of Xiaopei.

The city of Xiaopei was originally in Yanzhou, but it was later chaotic by thieves and returned to Xuzhou.

In recent years, most of the time it has been occupied by Xuzhou, and this time Wenbo's so-called Que declared the Son of Heaven and usurped the Han Dynasty to stand on his own, and he also started from Xiao Pei.

Their soldiers and horses have already gone to the army to wait.

Even if there is no definite news yet, Cao Cao thinks about it as trusting Xun Xiao.

Que Xuan was originally a general of Tao Qian, why did he usurp the Han Dynasty and stand on his own?

Once he stood on his own, there were strong enemies in front and behind, in the Taishan Mountains on the north side, especially the Kaiyang generation.

There is also a group of even more terrifying thieves, named Taishan Thief, the leader of the bandits is named Zang Ba, and in the south is Yuan Shu and other soldiers and horses.

So what did he usurp Hantu?

There are strong enemies on all sides, and Xiaopei is a small Pei country, and it is not on the remote border like Liaodong.

At this time, the usurper is just looking for death.

So Cao Cao had a guess.

It's just a hypothesis, and the reason why this is the case is that I'm afraid the plot is not so simple.

Yuan Shu and Tao Qian may be in cahoots, Yuan Shu lives in Yangzhou and drives away Liu Xuan.

Tao Qian also wants to enter, and he doesn't want to be trapped in Xuzhou for the rest of his life.

Therefore, this time to send troops, Cao Cao believed Xun Xiao's words, and then confirmed what he thought.

……

That night, Cao Cao's army marched.

The tiger and leopard cavalry was the vanguard army, and Cao Chun led the large army to gallop forward, rushing day and night along the way, passing through the waterline of the Onozawa Lake, from Juye all the way south, to Renchengtun Army.

The reason why this military order moved the tiger and leopard cavalry first was to keep it secret, when the tiger and leopard cavalry was selected, they were all confidants, all of whom came from the elite Qingzhou soldiers formed by the Qingxu Yellow Turban.

The Chinese army is behind, so even if there are spies from Xuzhou around him, the news will be biased in the past.

Moreover, just after the winter New Year's Pass, he had already sent a lot of soldiers and horses to Rencheng to station.

Since the prime minister was killed, Ren Cheng has been relatively bleak, and he went to the army station, which was just enough to restore many houses destroyed by Qingxu thieves.

On the 3rd, Cao Cao's army arrived at Rencheng, camped outside, and waited for 17 days.

Not much information was sought, and the military rations were wasted in vain, and the morale gradually rose from high to flat.

On Xiao Pei's side, the trade road was just closed, and there were no more merchants and horses in the territory coming out to walk.

And there are not many displaced people, and the guard is gradually tightened.

After investigating this, Cao Cao was even more sure that something must happen here.

"Big brother, it's the seventeenth day, what are we waiting for?"

"Wait for it, if the flag is not erected, wait safely in the camp, and our opportunity to enter Xuzhou may be at this time."

Cao Ren frowned in front of him, annoyed by these inexplicable words.

I don't know when it started, but the eldest brother suddenly became unfathomable.

I didn't dare to ask the end.

Several of their Cao clan brothers had secretly begun to speculate.

There is no chance at all, the so-called division is famous, Xuzhou does not cause trouble, how can you seize this opportunity to enter Xuzhou?

If it is forcibly entered, even if it is a gain, it is estimated that in the future, Tao Qian will use this name to spread the north and the south, which is somewhat of a righteous discord.

After all, in the alliance of princes back then, the common goal of recovering the Son of Heaven was still there.

Yuan Shu came to Yanzhou once, and he was already the target of the public on the surface.

The eldest brother is afraid that he will follow in the footsteps.

"Big brother, you honestly, what are we waiting for?"

"Just wait, when did I make you wait?"

Cao Cao smiled indifferently.

In fact, I was a little panicked.

But it doesn't matter, I won't admit it's wrong, it's a big deal to think of a reason, just a few words of praise Taoqian.

But what if I wait?

……

Coincidentally, at this time, the elderly Tao Qian received a secret letter from the Tan County Government Office in Xuzhou.

"Everything is ready, when the flag is raised into Yanzhou to plunder, the lord will enter Pei County in the name of counterinsurgency, and he can be based on Pei Nan within three days!"

When Tao Qian finished reading the secret letter, his energetic eyes suddenly sharpened, and he immediately slapped the case, summoned the civil and military to discuss, and was ready to go to the army!

"Good! I've been waiting for a long time, when will I expand! Today!! ”
