Chapter 963 Entering Xudu
Soon, Tao Qian ordered Cao Bao to lead an army of [-] to Xiao County to join Ruo Rong and pursue Cao Cao together.

Cao Bao took the order, and Xingye came to Xiao County.

Ruo Rong didn't know that Cao Bao was planning to rebel, so he brought people to greet him. Cao Bao stayed to eat wine.

Cao Bao took out a forged warrant, declared Ruo Rong's crime, and seized his military power.

Ruo Rong believed in Buddhism, promoted monks as cronies, oppressed soldiers, and acted mischievously. Danyang soldiers have long been filled with resentment.

Cao Bao killed Ruo Rong, and the Danyang soldiers applauded immediately without any resistance.

Hearing that Cao Bao had taken control of the army, Lu Bu was overjoyed and ordered Cao Xing to take three thousand soldiers with Chen Gong and horse Xingye to rush to Xiao County, while he led five thousand soldiers and horses to pursue Cao Cao alone.

When Chen Gong arrived in Xiao County, he immediately joined forces with Cao Bao and returned to besiege Xuzhou City.

Hearing Cao Bao's rebellion, Tao Qian was so angry that he died.

As soon as he died, the dragons in Xuzhou had no leader, and soon fell into the hands of Cao Bao.

Lv Bu pursued Cao Cao alone, was ambushed, and suffered heavy losses. 5000 people were killed and injured, and he fled back to Xuzhou with only a few hundred followers.

Cao Cao won a big victory and occupied Xiaopei.

Although Lu Bu was defeated, he became the master of Xuzhou, and his strength skyrocketed.

Cao Cao was difficult to conquer for a while, and Xia Houyuan was injured, so he had to leave Le Jin and Li Dian to guard Xiao Pei, and lead the army back to the court.

In this battle, both sides had their own losses, but they also had their own gains. Lu Bu won Xuzhou, and Cao Cao also won Xiaopei, so each has its own merits.

……

This is Xu Du?
Looking at the imposing new capital, Guo Jia couldn't help being amazed.

From the point of view of momentum alone, Xu Du is blessed with a bit of aura of dominating the dragon.

"Da Sikong is victorious and returns to court!"

A group of soldiers rushed out from the city and stood guard on both sides of the pipeline.

After a while, a large group of people came galloping from the official road, led by a magnificent double-wheeled carriage, Cao Cao stood with his sword, looking proudly ahead.

"Supply for the lord to return to court!"

Xun Yu and Xiahou Dun led civil and military officials to welcome them out, and bowed down on the road.

Everyone please rise up!

Cao Cao got out of the car, stretched out his hand to help Xun Yu and Xiahou Dun up, and smiled.

"Congratulations to the lord on his triumphant return!"

Xiahou Dun smiled.

Although Xuzhou was not captured this time, it was a small success in conquering Peiguo.

Xiaopei's geographical location is very important. It is the bridgehead from Yuzhou to Xuzhou. Occupying Xiaopei is tantamount to taking the initiative.

Ha ha!

Cao Cao smiled unnaturally.

His goal was Xuzhou, but by mistake, Lu Bu got Xuzhou first. This brave and invincible guy took over Xuzhou's Danyang soldiers, and his combat effectiveness was greatly improved.

It was difficult to attack Xuzhou, so Cao Cao had no choice but to return to the court first.

"The Son of Heaven has already set up a celebration banquet in the palace to cleanse Da Sikong from the dust."

Yang Biao on the side smiled.

it is good!
Cao Cao raised his whip and pointed, "Go back to the palace!"

As he spoke, he boarded the carriage, and with the support of his subordinates, he drove into Xudu mightily.

After driving, there was a cloud of smoke and dust.After the guarding soldiers withdrew, normal order was restored on the official road.

"Is this guy really a big shelf?"

Wang Yue sneered.

In terms of the strength of the princes in the world, Guo Jia beside him is the strongest. Even Guo Jia doesn't have such a big air in Yunzhou. This Cao Cao is not a big bird or a small air.

Guo Jia smiled slightly, but ignored it, and waved: "Forget it, let's go to the city!"

As he spoke, he led everyone to the front of the city gate.

This time, he sneaked into Xudu quietly. In order to avoid being recognized, Wang Yue even disguised it for Guo Jia.

His face became dark, and there was a big beard attached to it, even the most familiar people couldn't recognize him.

Xu Du's interrogation was very strict. After carefully inspecting the carriages and horses of the group, they were allowed to enter.

But they never dreamed that the great general of the dynasty, Guo Jia, would enter Xudu majestically under their noses.

After entering Xudu, Guo Jia did not immediately contact Skynet's stronghold here, but brought people into the inn.

After everything was settled, Guo Jia brought Wang Yue to Fangshi.

The layout of Xu Capital City is the same as that of Luoyang, with the square in the front and the city in the back, with bells on the left and drums on the right, and the imperial palace in the middle.

The reason why Guo Jia came to Fangshi for the first time was to see the market in Xudu.

Cao Cao is quite capable, and under his strong encouragement, Xudu's market is extremely hot.

The unique conditions, preferential taxation, and bustling crowds have brought great opportunities to Xudu's business.

Guo Jia walked around Fangshi for a few times, and found that the goods here are very complete, and almost everything can be bought here.

Many merchants in Yunzhou have also opened a branch in Xudu.

Among them were the Su family, the Mi family and the Zhen family.

Yunzhou's fine wine has successfully occupied Xudu's market, almost in a state of short supply.

The wine shop that represents Yunzhou Fine Wine has also learned the routine of hunger marketing, with a limited supply every day and no waiting for expiration.

Regardless of whether you are a dignitary or a relative of the emperor, you have to queue up.

Of course, dignitaries and relatives of the emperor will not come to line up, and they can collect wine from others at a high price.

Just as several people were lingering around the winery, a rogue-headed peddler stepped forward.

"Several of you are from other places, are you here because of the famous wine in Yunzhou?"

Yunzhou fine wine is only sold in a few big cities for the time being, so many foreigners come here here.

Not bad!

Guo Jia smiled and nodded.

The man said with a smile on his face: "It's a bad luck for you guys to come. This wine shop in Xudu City opens before dawn, and only sells a hundred jars of wine every day. Usually, it is sold out within a stick of incense. In Xudu City with 10,000+ people, a hundred jars of wine is simply not enough to fit between teeth. I’m afraid I’m going to take a trip today.”

Due to the existence of these people, Xu Du gave birth to a new profession - wine dealer!

They lined up at the wine shop every day before dawn, spent money to buy Yunzhou's fine wine, and resold it when they came out.

As a result, the fine wines in Yunzhou are very popular, and many people sell them at a higher price after grabbing them. The price is more than twice the ex-factory price, but the supply is still in short supply.

Ordinary people can't drink it at all.

Seeing the price that is almost twice the premium here, Wang Yue couldn't help but sigh, Yunzhou is better.

It is said that the reason why he is willing to stay in Yunzhou is because he is grateful to Guo Jia on the one hand, and because of the fine wine in Yunzhou on the other.

He's a real alcoholic.

Now that the wineries in Yunzhou have increased their supply, fine wines in Yunzhou are not so popular anymore. As the young master's master, Wang Yue has a respected status in the General's Mansion, so drinking is naturally enough.

Therefore, in Yunzhou, there is no situation where Wang Yue cannot buy wine.
