Chapter 22 Yuan Shao: Does he Cao Mengde dare to oppose me?
Cell.
Chen Zhou thought back to what happened just now, and was slightly distracted.
"Xun Wenruo?"
"The son surnamed Cao?"
Chen Zhou muttered to himself, guessing: "I think that son, unlike ordinary Cao clan relatives, Xun Wenruo's attitude towards him is a little subtle, won't it......?"
This is also just his speculation, and it cannot be confirmed for the time being.
But no, it doesn't matter to him anymore.
If yes, so much the better.
After guessing their identities, Chen Zhou quickly put them behind him and continued to lie on the soft couch, waiting for time to pass.
At least he had to wait until Cao Cao came back before he could leave this ghost place.
It's so boring while waiting!
——
Cao Cao's troops entered Yuzhou in two ways.
All the way to the army, go to attack the yellow turbans in Yingchuan and other places, and if they can be appeased, they will try to appease as much as possible, mainly to absorb.
Another army attacked Yuzhou Assassin Shi Guogong.
Cao Cao showed his military strength in Yuzhou, sent troops to attack very quickly, and it didn't take long for him to take most of the counties and counties, and he approached Shi Guogong.
At this time, Guo Gong was besieged by Cao Cao in Yangzhai City, isolated, facing the fierce Cao army outside, there was no way at all, his military strength was not very good, and he was far from Cao Cao's opponent.
In addition, most of the yellow turbans that were attacked were also subdued by Cao Cao.
Its leader, Liu Pi, fled and fled to the south of Yingchuan.
Cao Cao did not attack Yang Zhai immediately, but just surrounded the city and then camped to rest.
"Big brother, there's news."
Xiahoudun came to the main tent in the camp at this time, and hurriedly said: "This is intelligence from Guanzhong. ”
Cao Cao hurriedly opened it, read the above content, and said slowly: "Dong Cheng persuaded Guo Yan when Guo Yan and Li Wei were fighting inwardly, and then escorted the Son of Heaven to return to Luoyang with Yang Feng, Yang Ding and others. ”
Cheng Yu sighed: "That gentleman, amazing? ”
Chen Zhou's judgment on the situation in Guanzhong was only one or two sentences.
But in this simple discourse, the situation in the gatekeeper is completely summed up.
The civil strife among the ministers around the Son of Heaven was an opportunity for Cao Cao and them to obey the Son of Heaven to order them not to obey.
"Zhicai, Zhongde, what do you think I should do next?"
Cao Cao asked.
Cheng Yu first said: "You can arrange a person to get in touch with the Son of Heaven, indicating that we are willing to welcome the Son of Heaven, and after gaining their trust, we will find a way to bring the Son of Heaven to our side." ”
"What does Zhicai think?"
Cao Cao asked again.
Xi Zhong agreed: "What Zhongde said is feasible, but I think that it is not so simple to welcome the Son of Heaven, now that the Son of Heaven is surrounded by many factions, and various forces are intricate, even if someone is willing, there must be other people who raise objections. ”
Although it is not easy to walk, it is Cao Cao's best way out at present.
As long as you firmly grasp this opportunity, you can become a real prince.
"We want to contact the Son of Heaven directly, it's almost impossible, who does Zhicai think we can contact around the Son of Heaven?"
Cao Cao did not abandon this path.
He must get the Son of Heaven, try it according to Chen Zhou's plan, go on if he can, and change his direction immediately if he can't, and find another way to continue.
"Dong Cheng!"
These two words, Xi Zhong blurted out, and said: "This person is bent on bringing the Son of Heaven back to the east, and he is the core figure of the entire Guanzhong turmoil, so it is most appropriate to contact this person." ”
Cheng Yu also agreed.
Cao Cao said: "Zilian, can you help me go this way?" ”
Cao Hong directly agreed: "Big brother is waiting for my good news." ”
After saying that, he went to arrange.
Xi Zhong shook his head and smiled: "I guess there will be no good news in the short term, but when the Son of Heaven is cornered, it may be different." ”
Cao Cao said in a firm tone: "No matter what the situation is, I don't want to let go of this opportunity. ”
After a pause, he added: "Early tomorrow morning, take Yang Zhai, kill Guo Gong, and then welcome the Son of Heaven to Yingchuan." ”
Cao Cao's inner circle is the people of Yingchuan, and only by bringing the Son of Heaven back to Yingchuan can they truly serve the Son of Heaven and not obey them.
"As soon as Guo Gong dies, we ......"
Xi Zhong wanted to say something, but before he finished speaking, he suddenly showed a painful look on his face, as if he was very uncomfortable.
"Zhicai!"
Cao Cao and Cheng Yu exclaimed.
——
Jizhou, Yecheng.
"What is this Cao Mengde doing?"
Yuan Shao got the battle report that came back recently, frowned and said: "He just recruited 300,000 Yellow Turbans to surrender soldiers, and now he wants to expand to Yuzhou?" Hit Guo Gong? ”
As a younger brother below him, he doesn't have high requirements for Cao Cao.
It is enough to defend Yanzhou and Yuan Shu.
Cao Cao beat Xuzhou and slaughtered Xuzhou, but Yuan Shao didn't care, because Tao Qian of Xuzhou was Yuan Shu's younger brother.
But Cao Cao, the little brother, seems to have other ideas now, one is to incorporate the Yellow Turban, and the other is to expand externally, and even before doing it, he didn't report it to his big brother, which is beyond the scope of what the little brother should do.
He was very unhappy about this.
"Just Cao Mengde, why should the lord worry?"
Guo Tu beside him said disapprerovingly: "300,000 yellow scarves have descended, with a total population of one million men and women, it sounds very powerful, but it is just a group of rabble, these people are used to being thieves, they will only eat for nothing and not work, and millions of people will eat, and dragging it can also drag down Cao Mengde." ”
"Cao Mengde's expansion to Yuzhou is not a bad thing."
"With the prestige of the lord, when he defeats Yuzhou, we want to take it over, isn't it just a matter of words?"
"Cao Mengde dares not to obey the lord's orders?"
"I don't dare!"
"He's expanding for the Lord."
Guo Tu understands Yuan Shao's heart very well.
knew that Yuan Shao could only praise it, but not say some bad things.
Hearing Guo Tu say this, Yuan Shao was in a happy mood and threw away his worries.
In the past, Cao Cao was just a slug who followed his ass, even if so many years passed, Yuan Shao thought that this master-slave relationship could not be changed.
Cao Cao can only be his little brother forever.
"The public rule is wrong."
At this time, Tian Feng beside him objected: "Cao Cao is ambitious, this is actually because he wants to get out of the control of the lord, and after he takes Yuzhou, the lord asks him if he wants it, I'm afraid he won't be able to come." ”
When Guo Tu heard this, he shook his head and sneered.
This is the person who doesn't know how to support Yuan Shao.
Sure enough, when Yuan Shao heard this, his face turned cold.
I was very dissatisfied with Tian Feng's words.
"Could it be that in Yuan Hao's opinion, the majesty of the lord is so unbearable?"
Guo Tu retorted: "Yuan Hao feels that the lord can't suppress a mere Cao Cao. ”
Tian Feng said: "You can now, but ...... later"
Before he finished his words, Yuan Shao interrupted dissatisfiedly: "Enough! I don't believe it, he Cao Mengde can still turn against me! ”
Yuan Shao is very conceited, thinking that who in the world dares not to listen to his orders?
The prestige of the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family is not comparable even to the Son of Heaven.
He thought that he wanted to take care of Cao Cao, and it was just a matter of one sentence.
Tian Feng lowered his head helplessly, not daring to say anything more.
Guo Tu smiled slightly, thinking that this is the fate of not knowing how to praise Yuan Shao, and he will not be reused.
