The weather is clear and the wind is smooth.

Today is another good day.

Although tomorrow is in the sky, it is much better than the heat of midsummer.

It has been ten days since the Cao family father and son led their troops to leave Dingtao County, and under the starry night of the army, they galloped all the way and finally arrived in Changyi County.

At this moment, Cao Cao and Cao Ang, father and son, were standing on the city tower of Changyi County, Shanyang County.

And around the two of them were more than a dozen local officials, as well as several family speakers who were ranked in the top row of the county.

Among them, there is Shanyang Taishou Yuan's legacy.

Under the city tower, there are 20,000 troops brought by the Cao family's father and son, and under the command of their respective generals, they are lined up in neat formations.

In the huge team, a pole of flags fluttered in the wind, and the flags were embroidered with the surnames of generals from all walks of life, among which the Cao Zi flag, which represented the commander, was half a head higher than the others, standing tall in the position of the Chinese army.

Under the banner of majesty.

It is the military discipline is solemn, and the soldiers who are strictly organized are not smiling, and their eyes are blazing and looking straight ahead.

Everyone was holding weapons, and the sharp blades flashed with bright white light under the sunlight, so that everyone on the city tower couldn't help but look away from their eyes, not daring to look directly at such a sharp edge.

Although all over the army.

Only some of the men and horses were neatly assembled and looked like they were formidable regular soldiers, and the rest were slightly poorly equipped recruits who seemed to have only recently joined the army.

But that doesn't hinder a little bit.

That is, on the whole, this army is a contingent with a good mental outlook, strict discipline, and high quality, and it has considerable combat effectiveness.

Such a find.

As a result, the local forces led by Shanyang Taishou Yuan Yi all had flashing eyes, complicated faces, and several family leaders, with a faint look of fear on their faces.

And this is exactly the effect that Cao Cao is after.

He came all the way from Dingtao County, and abruptly changed from a county to a state pastor.

Although Liu Dai, the original Yanzhou assassin, is dead, the position itself is vacant, and there are no contradictions and disputes in the transition between the old and new powers.

But no matter who it is.

For the sudden appearance of a new big brother above his head, he must have instinctively resisted.

How can you Cao Cao hold this position?

And in this case.

It is a method that can convince the hearts of the people in the shortest possible time and make all the forces in the state convinced of him.

It's a show of muscles!

There is no need to talk so much about the truth, and in the face of absolute strength, there is no need to beat around the bush and play some conspiracy and calculation.

My Cao family put such an army in front of them, and if anyone is unconvinced, they should weigh their own weight and see if they are qualified to jump on their feet.

At the moment, Cao Cao looked left and right.

Seeing that everyone was in awe.

You can see how effective this method is.

…………

"Brother Boye, and all of you, the identity of the angel of the court and the authenticity of this edict have been verified, I don't know if there is any objection to Cao's appointment as the pastor of Yanzhou?"

It's right above this tower.

With the power of an army of 20,000.

Cao Cao bluntly asked everyone present whether they would admit that he was a state pastor, and he did not hide the slightest between his words, and he seemed full of confidence.

And everyone looked at each other for a while.

After a few seconds of silence.

It was still Shanyang County who guarded Yuan Yi, and stood up decisively, bowed to Cao Cao very respectfully, and bowed down until he bowed.

Then he said solemnly.

"Meet the Governor down here!"

Under the leadership of Yuan Yi, representatives of major families in Changyi County also formed a circle and bowed to Cao Cao in a circle.

"I'll see the state pastor!"

Such words and deeds.

It means that everyone present at least recognized Cao Cao's identity on the surface, regardless of whether they were convinced or not, the effect had been achieved in name.

And I saw that everyone was so upright.

Cao Cao immediately took it away, laughed instead, and helped Yuan Yi up with kindness on his face.

At the same time, he said to the people around him.

"Everyone, please hurry up, now the thieves are menacing, Shanyang County is the point of its soldiers, it is already in danger, and then we need to work together to exterminate the thieves and protect the territory and the people!"

……

After being helped up by Cao Cao.

Yuan Yi is still a humble gesture.

A little flattering said: "Yanzhou is in chaos, bandits and bandits are rampant, and now there are ant thieves in chaos, which has turned the state upside down, the counties are in tatters, and the people are miserable. ”

"In addition, Liu Gongshan led his troops to fight the ant thieves, and the 20,000 troops under his command were all lost on the battlefield, which made Yanzhou even worse."

"At this time of crisis, fortunately, Brother Meng De led the army to descend from the sky, waved his army to come, protect the territory and the people, and defend the land, which is really righteous and dedicated to the country!"

"Now that Brother Meng De is here, the sky in Yanzhou will be clear, and the blue sky of the common people will also be there!"

A flowery sycophant.

Calling Cao Cao a little unbearable.

He asked himself if he was not a thin-skinned person, but such praise was too much.

What's going on with this Yuan Boye?

When did you become a stalker?

In fact, Cao Cao also wronged Yuan.

This guy himself has a hard time.

As the Taishou of Shanyang County, the county governance and Yanzhou Prefecture coincide, both in Changyi County, so he and Liu Dai are working in the same place, at best, they are their respective public offices, and the specific locations are different.

Therefore, when Liu Dai borrowed troops from various counties to seek support and help as the assassin of Yanzhou.

The rest of the counties can find an excuse to refuse Liu Dai, and just close the door and ignore it, as if they didn't know about it.

And he is the only one who can't do it.

Everyone looked up and didn't look down, Liu Dai came directly to the door to speak, what reason did he give to refuse?

Especially after Liu Dai killed Qiao Mao, after this incident, Yuan Yi didn't dare to refuse his request.

I am afraid that if I anger Liu Dai and cause him to kill, maybe he will follow in the footsteps of Qiao Mao and become another ghost under Liu Gongshan's knife.

Therefore, after Liu Dai borrowed troops from him.

Yuan Yi could only agree to this.

But the surname Liu was defeated by the Yellow Turban Army in the Battle of Shouzhang County, and all the troops on hand were lost, and even the capital on hand with Yuan Yu was turned into ashes.

Completely borrowed and repaid.

The current Yuan Yi is no different from a light pole commander, he has the name of Shanyang County Taishou, but he has no corresponding strength.

Therefore, in the face of Cao Cao, who came with monstrous might, he could only behave very humbly.

……

After achieving their purpose.

Cao Cao did not continue to scare them with the army, and instructed the Xiahou brothers to bring the army to the barracks to rest, and he changed places with all parties.

Yanzhou assassin Liu Dai just died.

Therefore, his assassin's mansion still retains the original state of his life, although his family members have been temporarily placed in other residences by Yuan Yi and others, but some of the display arrangements have not had time to be changed.

Of course, Cao Cao didn't particularly care.

He's a newcomer after all.

With such a small matter, there is a lot of time to make adjustments in the future, so you don't have to worry about it.

Above the banquet in the hall.

Cao Cao is in the ascendancy.

Cao Ang sat on his left half-height position, and Yuan Yi's seat was half a block down.

Since the banquet has not yet started at this moment.

Therefore, everyone is familiar with each other.

Looking at Cao Ang, who was on his right, Yuan Yi shifted his position and leaned slightly to the side.

Then he gestured to Cao Ang.

His face was full of enthusiasm, and he said with a smile on his face: "Zixu, I haven't seen you in Luoyang for a few months, don't come unharmed!" ”

Cao Ang replied with a salute.

He also said with a smile: "Uncle is fine, I said goodbye to Luoyang at the beginning, but I didn't expect that I would soon see my uncle again in Changyi County today." ”

……

Hear that.

Yuan Yi suddenly sighed and sighed.

Speaking of Luoyang's farewell, he couldn't help but have a lot of thoughts in his heart, when everyone was fighting against Dong Lianjun, he was of the same status as Cao Ang's father, Cao Cao.

Everyone is a county guard.

And the kid in front of him was just a tiger lieutenant at the beginning, and when he finished the crusade against Dong Zhuo, he just became a tiger lieutenant general, still in charge of his one or two thousand soldiers and horses.

However, it was only a few months.

Everything has changed!

Cao Cao became his top boss and became the number one in charge of Yanzhou's military and political power, and his subordinates were even more generals.

And this kid is even more incredible.

Although the official position has not changed.

But I heard that of the 20,000 troops brought by Cao Cao, 5,000 of them belonged to this kid alone, and he defeated the Yellow Turban Thief in Liaqiu County a few days ago, such a brilliant deed was enough to shock Yuan Yi's eyeballs.

Everyone is rising.

Jump up the steps.

I was the only one who had the water flowing down.

Think about it here.

Yuan Yi was even more sad and angry in his heart.

They are all surnamed Yuan, compared to Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, the two sons of the big sect, they are from this small sect, and there is really a world of difference.

It's just that he's not dying well.

ran into Liu Dai, a beast.

A little bit of the family has been cleaned up.

What a hell of a thing.

……

After a while of grief and indignation in my heart.

Yuan Yi quickly controlled his emotions, and with his years of official cultivation, he quickly changed into an expression of admiration.

While patting his thighs.

He said to Cao Ang: "I received news earlier that Zi Xuan was going to lead his troops to Liqiu County to guard the northern defense line of Jiyin County. ”

"When I heard the news, to be honest, I was still quite sorry."

"After all, with Zixuan's ability to command troops on the battlefield, he is far beyond the talent of ordinary people, if he can lead his troops here, it will definitely make the thieves dare not easily offend the south."

"It's just that I didn't expect that Zi Yu would come here with Brother Meng De today, this is really an unexpected joy, there is Zi Yu leading the army to defeat the thieves, just a yellow turban thief, I can't think of ringworm scabies!"

Yuan Yi completely lit up the touting skills.

Rainbow farts are one set after another.

If it weren't for Cao Ang's relatively high psychological threshold, I am afraid that he would not be able to find the north at this time.

But there is one thing to say.

After being praised twice.

Cao Ang was indeed quite comfortable in his heart.

For the Yuan family in front of him, the senses of the children of the small sect suddenly improved a lot.

I feel that if this guy gets acquainted in the future and can stand on a correct position between the Cao family and the Yuan family, it is not impossible to give him a bright future.

I thought so in my heart.

Cao Ang still waved his hand humbly.

"Uncle has a good reputation, Yanzhou is a treasure of things, outstanding people, talented and capable people should really be a car bucket, but a virtuous and talented person, it is nothing more than a coincidence!"

And then until the banquet begins.

Both of them are a strong boast, and the other is all kinds of modest and just right.

……

The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors.

Light singing and dancing, silk and bamboo orchestras.

Everyone was immersed in the banquet, but they also forgot for a while that in Shouzhang County in the north, there was an army of more than 10,000 people, who were coming south.

But pleasure is always short-lived.

After a few songs and dances.

Cao Cao slapped his face after all and motioned for the dancing girls to retreat.

After everyone gradually came to their senses.

"Ahem!"

Cao Cao coughed dryly and cleared his throat, attracting the attention of everyone present to himself.

See the gaze converge in front of you.

Cao Cao stood up with grace.

After bowing slightly to everyone present, Cao Cao looked straight, put on a solemn posture, and spoke loudly to everyone.

"I've drunk the wine and watched the singing and dancing, now it's time to talk about some serious things."

"Since you have previously verified the identity of the angel and the authenticity of the edict, and you also recognize Cao Mou, the Yanzhou pastor, there is one thing I want to make clear to you."

Cao Cao's words were so crisp.

The crowd did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

They turned their bodies one after another, sitting sideways in the direction of Cao Cao, sitting upright.

Everyone seemed to be listening very seriously.

See this.

Cao Cao nodded with satisfaction at first.

Then raise your right hand and hold up three fingers.

"Cao Mou holds the position of Yanzhou pastor, and there must be many affairs in the future, and there must be many differences between the big and small things in the state and the predecessor Liu Gongshan."

"But that's not the right thing to do right now, and these things can be brought up later."

"I led my troops to Changyi County, just for three things, to beg for thieves, to beg for thieves, or to beg for thieves!"

……

As soon as this statement came out.

The house was full of surprise.

Everyone originally thought that Cao Cao would say something one, two, three, which was equivalent to making rules with everyone, just like Emperor Taizu Gao, who entered Xianyang and made three chapters of the law.

But I didn't expect the so-called three things.

It's just one thing.

Begging for thieves!

And this also proves more and more that Cao Cao attaches great importance to this matter, and also shows the firmness in his heart.

Everyone suddenly did not dare to slack off.

Just before they could say anything.

Cao Cao had already stepped down from the high platform, came to the center of the hall, raised his hand and said to everyone.

"Before the thieves are defeated and wiped out, everything else is a trivial matter, and everyone and everything must make way for the great cause of the thief."

"Cao may wish to make his words clearer, no matter what calculations you have in your hearts, and no matter what you think of Cao's arrival, or in Changyi County, Shanyang County, and even the entire Yanzhou, you have your own share of interests."

"But before exterminating the ant thieves, it's best to put away these careful thoughts, and use all the power you can use to jointly crusade against the thieves, and everyone must do their part, unless you don't think you're from Yanzhou."

Speaking of which.

Cao Cao suddenly drew the sword at his waist.

"Khooth!"

With the sound of metal grinding.

The sharp short sword was already out of its sheath, and the blade that shimmered with cold light made everyone shudder.

"Click!"

Before everyone could react.

Cao Cao had already swung his sword.

The blade of the sword suddenly slammed into the table, and one of the corners of the wooden table was instantly chopped off and fell straight to the ground.

"Cao's ugly words are ahead, in front of the great cause of crusading against thieves, you can see the benefits and cherish your body, but be careful that I will trouble you later."

"But if anyone dares to drag his feet and obstruct many affairs of our army in the process of crusading, then don't blame me for turning my face and denying people on the spot."

"Cao Mou has a word first, and if he overpasses, he will be like this case, and he will be punished by the knife and axe!"

Now everyone is even more trembling.

Where would anyone dare to jump out and oppose it.

Cao Cao's will is so resolute.

If anyone dares to say a word at this juncture, he will probably be bloodied on the spot.

Therefore, Cao Cao's voice fell.

The crowd rose one after another.

The movements are uniform, and the bows are bowed.

"Obey the orders of the king!"
