Three Kingdoms: From Yinlin to Great Wei Xiongzhu

Chapter 471 Cao Gong, Mrs. She gave birth
The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and the atmosphere is not harmonious.

The torrential rain caused a layer of mist to rise on the ground. The soldiers who were supposed to enter Liyang City to hide from the rain, their shoes and socks were completely wet at this moment, and they couldn't help shivering all over.

Their eyes stared blankly at the city wall of Liyang City not far away.

And in front of you, the army formation that doesn't welcome them back!

what's the situation?
The 40 people stopped within five miles of Liyang City, and they didn't dare to get too close, because... one step further, there would be arrows all over the sky.

These arrows from the north are mercilessly slaughtering these returnees!
Hesitant, helpless, hopeless...

A series of emotions swept through, almost crushing the last nerve of these soldiers.

"Going north? Going north... Has it become so difficult?"

"We...we don't want to fight, we just want to go home!"

"Aunt, Auntie, I miss you so much... It's hard for me to go home now!"

I finally stayed up until late at night, and finally crossed the Yellow River to come here, but...but...

"Tick tock..."

"L…"

Countless tears mingled with the rain, and time wore down the mood of these Yuan soldiers returning north. Amid the sound of crying, their eyes became hollow one by one, empty of the unknown road ahead.

"Can not go back…"

Suddenly, an old voice came out. It was the voice of the 50-year-old veteran. At this moment, his face was extremely vicissitudes, and he seemed to have aged ten years in an instant.

"Yuan Shao even the sages Jushou, Xu You, and Tian Feng are...incompatible, let alone...cough cough...what about us? Go back...can't go back!"

A voice full of loss...

All of a sudden, the moaning disappeared, and the loud roaring sound also disappeared, only the gurgling sound of the rain, slapping on everyone, the bodies of these 40 men have been soaked.

indifferent...

Everyone is indifferent.

Since Yuan Shao ordered to treat them like this and shoot them, then...it would be futile for them to go north by force, no city or county would dare to accept them.

There is a home... hard to go back!
--"father…"

--"son…"

——"Xiu'er, I can't go back!"

This group of tough guys who were bleeding, sweating but not crying on the battlefield suddenly broke their defenses at this moment, and howled one by one.

In these tears, there was complete disappointment with Yuan Shao, and there were also tears falling straight down because...the family was hard to return to.

"do not Cry…"

Finally, someone screamed loudly: "Dad and mother are not dead, why are you crying? He Yuan Shao won't let us go back, can't we call back?"

The sudden sound resonated with countless people.

"My hometown is in Zhuo County, and my peach garden is even bigger than that of Zhang Yide's, and my mother still takes care of these peach groves every day... My grandma, Yuan Shao won't let me see my mother, and I will never live with him! "

The voice resounded.

At the same time, many voices suddenly sounded.

Of course, normal soldiers of the Yuan Army would not react so quickly, they still need to go through a complete process of grief.

Both Lu Yu and Cao Cao thought of this level, so they placed a lot of babysitters in their team!

That's right...

Just like in the previous life, those large-scale audition scenes, the crying audience in front of the camera, are all childcare...

Ah no, to be precise, they are actors!
A crying scene can earn thousands of dollars!
Many times, these "children" words, or actions... can guide other audiences!
At this moment...

In front of the collapsed and desperate 40 soldiers of the Yuan army, some "caregivers" are always needed to guide everyone's emotions, so that the soldiers will not be impulsive to desperately, die, and make fearless sacrifices.

Instead, return to the south bank of the Yellow River rationally, and return to Cao Cao's arms!

——"What's wrong? Weeping and crying? Can you go home?"

——"Can I go back and sleep with my mother-in-law?"

——"Can we return to the days of the mother-in-law, the child, and the hot kang?"

The nurses are getting louder and harder.

——"Crying, it's useless! It's useless to stand stupidly... Damn, if you have this skill, it's better to retreat to the south bank of the Yellow River. Let's ask Cao Sikong and Lu Situ to make decisions for us. Yuan Shao won't let us go home. , let’s fight back with Cao Sikong and Lu Situ! This guy is the one with the backbone...the one who returns home! Crying, you know how to cry, it’s about you, crying for your second uncle!”

Rough words are not rough...

Of course, if only one person said that, it might not be able to affect the emotions of these 40 people.

But under this situation, the cold rain of arrows continued to shoot down!

What if... thousands of childcare said that?

Then... this kind of "return to Cao Ying in the south, fight back to the north...return home" will spread in an instant...

Sure enough, soon...

These soldiers all had the idea of ​​"fighting back to the north", as if, at this moment... they were standing on the same front as Cao Cao and Lu Yu!

They agreed with the so-called "beat back" and "return home".

——"That's right... let's go to Cao Sikong, let's call back!"

——"We brothers follow Cao Sikong, follow Lu Situ, if Liyang City dares to stop us, we will overthrow the city!"

——"No, I don't know. I was shocked. Here...Lu Situ let us go back to the north, Cao Sikong gave us food and money, but Yuan Shao had such an attitude, and greeted us with arrows...Who is the master? Who? Does it matter if you are a mediocre master? I have taken root in Cao Ying from now on!"

A series of violent shouts came out one after another...

40 people...

Together with the enemy!

These nurses didn't expect it, and it went smoother than expected!

Suddenly, a soldier shouted: "Then why go back? There is only a few thousand troops in front of us, but a Liyang City? Let's rush over! Kill him, Yuan Shao... won't we be able to go home?"

This remark blurted out, and there is really a lot of echoes!

But... Just like this scene, the nurses are prepared, to be precise, it is Lu Yu who has prepared for these nurses in their training.

Immediately, there was a nurse standing on the carriage.

He shouted at the top of his voice: "Calm down, calm down...you all listen to me!"

"We have a lot of people, but we don't have any weapons or siege equipment. If we fight like this... Even if we win, how many people will die? How many brothers will be buried along the Yellow River, unable to return home? Yuan Shao...it's not worth it, it's not worth it!"

"Besides, we only have food for the past few days. Not to mention the north, even Liyang City can't be captured! Let's go back! Let's go back... Lu Situ has no plans left, he will definitely win without bloodshed Yuan Shao, save the lives of the brothers!"

As soon as this voice comes out!
In the crowd, a group of childcare workers screamed vigorously.

"Yes, Cao Sikong and Lu Situ will definitely defeat Yuan Shao easily..."

"It's time for the northern border to change, and it's time for a bright master!"

"Damn it..."

Thanks to the efforts of these nurses, the wind direction of the entire 40 Yuan army has completely changed. Everyone turned around and embarked on the road to return to Cao Ying in the south in a tacit understanding.

A huge crowd of people...

The banks of the Yellow River were suddenly crowded with people, and once again, it was like the migration of animals on the grassland!
It's just... After such a small episode, there is no more complexity and hesitation in their eyes, but what is left is loyalty, passion... and hope!
...

...

Liyang City, above the city tower.

"My lord is really a saint! You can see Yinlin's treachery at a glance." Guo Tu couldn't help but sighed: "Look, this Yinlin can't do anything, these tens of thousands of people have retreated in frustration, hey hey-hey!"

It seems to be a habit of flattering.

Guo Tu's three sentences are inseparable from his praise of Yuan Shao.

The judge on the side gave him a blank look.

"Mr. Yuan is not here, so is it necessary for Mr. Gong to boast so much? Who will listen to him!"

"Heh!" Guo Tu turned around and looked directly at the judge. "What? Do you dare to question the decision of the lord?"

"Hmph..." The judge gave a cold snort, and he pointed at the hundreds of thousands of people who left in front of him. "Of course I dare not question the decision of the lord, but from their steps, I can feel that when they came, they were full of hope, but when they left, they were full of resentment!"

"So what?" Guo Tu sneered.

The judge was not used to Guo Tu at all, and immediately said coldly: "Guo Gongze, haven't you thought about it, maybe it's my lord's suspicion, and your villain's flattery, it should belong to us if it gets cold The hearts of 40 soldiers!"

"Shen Zhengnan, please pay attention to your words and deeds!" Guo Tu's eyes showed a fierce look.

"I am an upright person, and my words and deeds can stand the scrutiny of the lord and the Li Shu in the north! It's not like you, a despicable, shameless, flattering villain!" The judge took a step forward, suddenly startling Guo Tu.

"You, you, you, you...you..." Guo Tu hesitated and couldn't speak...

But at this time.

——"Report...Mr. Guo, the eldest son raised another [-] soldiers from Qingzhou!"

A pawn came quickly to report...

"it is good…"

Hearing the news that it was the eldest son Yuan Tan, Guo Tu was quite excited.

You must know that the middle-level civil and military organization of the Yuan family is clearly divided into two factions: Jizhou Talents and Ruying Clans, but in fact, if it is based on the dispute between the sons and daughters.

In the faction of the Ruying clan alone, there are three factions...

Wen is headed by Guo Tu, Xin Ping, and Chen Lin, and Wu is headed by Wang Zhao, Cen Bi, and Peng An, the eldest son Yuan Tan's faction!
Wen is headed by Shen Pei and Feng Ji, and Wu is led by Su You, Lu Kuang, Lu Xiang, Ma Yan, and Zhang Wei's youngest son Yuan Shang!
There is also the second son Yuan Xi who is more salty, and the only two warriors under his command are Jiao Touch and Zhang Nan!
It can be said that the battle between the world's sons is ten times more dangerous than the battle between factions!
Hearing that the eldest son Yuan Tan has raised soldiers and horses, it is no wonder that Guo Tu is quite pleased!

"Ha ha…"

Unexpectedly, the judge gave a cold snort. "Gong, I'm afraid you don't know yet. Mr. Shang has already recruited 8 people in Jizhou, which seems to be [-] more than Mr. Tan!"

This is Chi Guoguo's contempt...

Guo Tu's eyes stared like copper bells. "Shen Zhengnan, don't forget, Mr. Tan is the eldest son! He is the best candidate for the son!"

The judge shook his head. "I have been loyal to Zhengnan all my life. I will be loyal to whoever the lord says to establish."

The implication is that the lord Yuan Shao is more interested in the youngest son Yuan Shang...

"Humph…"

With a cold snort, Guo Tu and the judge were not speculative...they broke up unhappy!

...

...

Guandu, in a study room,
The rain was gurgling outside the window, and under the lamp, Cao Cao was concentrating on reading a scroll of bamboo slips, which was "Sun Tzu's Art of War", Cao Cao's favorite military book.

It was also the book that was recommended to Cao Cao by his master... Duan Jiong, one of the Liangzhou Sanming, and "The Prince of Qiao" Qiao Xuan for him to read for his whole life.

It can be seen from this that "Sun Tzu's Art of War" has a high status in the minds of famous generals and ministers in this era.

Of course, not everyone regards "The Art of War" as a god.

For example... Huangfusong despises "Sun Tzu's Art of War" very much, and he likes to read "Wu Zi's Art of War", which is a completely different faction.

It is because of the different factions in the book of war that Cao Cao was once appointed as a "logistics officer" under Huang Fusong's command in the early days of the conquest of the Yellow Turban!
At this moment... While reading, Cao Cao couldn't help but think of the stories of his youth in the past.

When Yu'er was the age, he was still a monster boy, a playboy, right?

at this time…

"Cao Sikong, did you call me?" Xun You's voice came.

Cao Cao hastily put down the bamboo slips and got up to meet Xun You. Xun You, who had just stepped into the study, was still wearing clogs and a raincoat, and was holding a bamboo slip in his hand, which was "36 Strategies" "edited" by Lu Yu!
"Haha... I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Cao Cao led Xun You into the room. He noticed the "Thirty-Six Strategies" in Xun You's hand, smiled slightly, and remained silent.

Xun You took off his coir raincoat and wiped his wet hands.

"Cao Sikong, it's getting late! It must be something urgent!"

"Yes!" Cao Cao nodded, but shook his head again. "But it's not."

He paused for a moment, and continued to speak: "There is news from Xu Capital City that my first wife is about to give birth, and that's why I'm looking for you to talk about it!"

hiss…

Xun You rolled his eyes.

Mrs. Ding giving birth?this thing...

How smart is Xun You?
Logically speaking, how could Cao Cao discuss such a private matter with an outsider like him?

But it happened that he came here, so...it wasn't just this one thing that we were talking about, it was...it was about Lu Yu!
Subconsciously, Xun You could already realize that Cao Cao's purpose was to talk about Lu Yu and his son!
Then...

Suddenly, Xun You thought of something, but he didn't speak. He chose...to let Cao Cao bring up the topic.

Sure enough, Cao Cao said, "Gongda, there are not many people in Cao Ying who know Yu'er's true identity, and you and your uncle are two of them!"

Xun You's eyes froze all of a sudden, as expected...it is indeed about the son of the world!
Cao Cao's words continued. "Mrs. Ding is my legitimate wife. It is reasonable to say that the rules of this world are that there is a son who has a son, and no son who has no son... It's fine if there is no son before, but if my wife gives birth to a son... then..."

Cao Cao didn't finish his speech...but the meaning couldn't be more clear.

Xun You opened his mouth and said, "Cao Sikong is worried that this son-in-law will threaten the eldest son's succession as the son?"

"That's right!" Cao Cao nodded... "It was Ziyou before, but it's okay for Ziyou to say, after all, it wasn't my real wife who gave birth. I can let Yu'er also recognize Ding Hui as a mother, so whether it is morality or rules It's all reasonable, but my wife is pregnant at this age and is about to give birth, which really messed up all my plans!"

actually…

Cao Cao specially sent someone to inquire, because of Ding Hui's age, she was pregnant again!
It's not that she's old, but...there's no movement in her stomach for 20 years. This...even though it's related to Lao Cao's hard work, it's too ridiculous!

later…

The Huben army secretly investigated, and Cao Cao found out that it was Yu'er!

Yu'er has created a big trouble for himself!
call…

Cao Cao exhaled, but Xun You's eyes were fixed. It was difficult for an upright official to break up housework, let alone Cao Cao's housework.

Simply, he changed the subject directly.

"Cao Sikong, I'm afraid Cao Sikong is not the only one who has this trouble..."

"Well?"

"When we came back from the secret work in the northern border, Yuan Shao's health is not optimistic, and his three sons, especially the eldest son Yuan Tan and the youngest son Yuan Shang are secretly competing. Now Yuan Shao is probably also thinking about how to establish a son. And distressed?"

Ha ha…

Hearing this, Cao Cao was happy. "Haha, Gongda, you are really a spring and autumn style of writing, and you have gone to Yuan Benchu's side... Haha, if your uncle, he would definitely persuade me to follow the rules and the ancestral system..."

this…

Cao Cao said that Xun You's uncle was naturally Xun Yu.

However, Xun You shook his head. "If it's someone else, maybe my uncle will stick to the ancestral system and obey the rules, but if it's Lu Yu...then uncle will probably support him?"

"Why?" Cao Cao continued to ask,

Xun You said truthfully: "Uncle once mentioned that he thinks he has good eyesight, can recognize people, and can see people, but... only Lu Yu, uncle can't see through, but uncle can be sure, this Lu Yu will definitely change the world , Let the common people of the world live a new life!"

"For this, uncle will also gamble on Lu Yu! Bet on a peaceful and prosperous world!"

Hey…

Xun You didn't seem to answer these words, and he didn't participate in the selection of the "Shizi", but between the lines, wasn't Yu'er the one who voted?

This is what Cao Cao thought of going together...

It's just that I don't know if other civil and military... have this awareness too?

at this time…

——"Cao Gong, Cao Gong..."

But Xu Chu rushed into the study in a hurry.

As Cao Cao's personal Tiger Guard, it was the first time he was so restless.

"What? What happened?"

Cao Cao's eyes froze all of a sudden, it must be a big deal to make Xu Chu so restless!
——"It was born, madam, she... she gave birth!"

Xu Chu opened his mouth and said.

He also just received the seven-hundred-mile rush from Xu Capital City. Mrs. Ding gave birth. This is a big deal, and he must report it to Cao Cao as soon as possible!

only…

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, as if he was stunned, as if he hadn't prepared himself mentally yet.

But Xun You, who was keen, immediately noticed the important point here...

Yeah...the point was never about giving birth!Rather, a boy or a girl!
"General Zhongkang? Is the lady giving birth to a boy? Or a girl?"

Xun Youlang said...

"Girl... girl!" Xu Chu didn't think about it.

As soon as these words came out, suddenly... the atmosphere of the whole study room was as if the sun was rising from the clouds. Even though the rain was murmuring outside the window, the sky in this study room was clear!
--"Ha ha…"

--"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

In an instant, Cao Cao's devilish laughter resounded... His whole body seemed to be dazzled by laughter.

——"Daughter is good, daughter is good..."

This is Cao Cao, shouting from the bottom of my heart!

——"Okay, my daughter!"

...
