My father is Yuan Shu?But I want to be a Cao thief

Chapter 397 Execution of the Xiongnu King
"Brother Taton, what are you doing?"

Looking at the shattered cup, Hu Chuquan panicked instantly, especially when there were hurried footsteps coming from behind the screen, countless knives and axes rushed out, and asked hastily.

"Hehe, Hu Chuquan, you are so naive!" Ta Dun took another cup, poured a cup of tea, and sneered.

"Ta Dun, you, what do you mean?" Hu Chuquan pressed his palm on the sword at his waist, looking vigilantly at the swordsmen around him, and the two deputy guards beside him also looked around in fear.

"What do you mean? Hmph, you dare to rebel against Duke Yuan despite your own strength. Don't worry, I will give you a happy ending. After you die, I will take over the cavalry under your command for you!"

Tasting the tea lightly, the corners of his mouth curled up, revealing a sinister look.

"You, you betrayed me? Tadun, you will die!" Hu Chuquan finally understood that this Tadun betrayed himself for the sake of profit, and the purpose was to annex his troops!
"Chong!"

As he said that, Hu Chuquan pulled out his sword, and with a roar, he wanted to die with Ta Dun, but after getting Ta Dun's acquiescence, the swordsmen around him slashed with countless swords, and blood spurted wildly in an instant.

I saw that Huchuquan was hacked to pieces, and the two guards also died tragically on the spot!

"unlucky!"

Ta Dun looked at a drop of blood splashed in the teacup in his hand, his face darkened, and he snorted coldly.

"Crack, snap, snap!"

Yuan Tan came out clapping his palms, with a smile on his face: "Congratulations to Chief Tadun for successfully annexing Huchuquan's subordinates. I also hope that Chief Tadun will be victorious with my father in the future."

"Naturally, naturally!" Tadun chuckled.

----

That night, there was chaos outside the city,

The news of the killing of King Huchuquan of the Huns has spread. According to the traditional practice of the Huns, either the Huns royal family inherits or the strongest warrior is selected to inherit the position.

However, with Ta Dun's suppression, the Xiongnu turmoil was completely pacified, and the entire Xiongnu's nearly [-] cavalry would be controlled by Ta Dun.

Because the Huns had no food and grass, they had to rely on Yuan Shao for food and grass, and Yuan Shao didn't let them down, so no one was dissatisfied.

As for Tadun, in order to stabilize the hearts of the people, he directly promised all the knights of the Huns that after the end of this battle, they can all be arranged to live in Youzhou, and one person will give two Han girls as wives and concubines.
This move is better than what Hu Chuquan gave when he was in office.
For a while, the Xiongnu cavalry admired this man with means and bravery.

----

The sky gradually reveals fish belly white,
Last night, Yuan Shaoquan did not close his eyes.

At this moment Yuan Tan strode forward, clasped his fists and said, "Father, the Xiongnu have all been rectified!"

"Very good!" Yuan Shao breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew that foreign races were difficult to control, and no one could guarantee whether the knights under his command would rebel after Hu Chuquan's death, and it was precisely because of this that Yuan Shao dared not close his eyes.

"Father, there is something that I don't know if I should say it or not!" Yuan Tan asked with a frown.

"Say!" Yuan Shao said.

"Father, it's not easy to overthrow the Huns, and now it has annexed tens of thousands of cavalry from the Xiongnu. I'm worried." Yuan Tan said what he was worried about earlier, because he saw the Huns being overthrown and rectified with his own eyes.
But before he finished speaking, Yuan Shao raised his hand and said, "Don't mention this matter again!"

"No!" Yuan Tan nodded angrily.

"By the way, the autumn harvest is just around the corner. We have sent an order to all places. After the autumn harvest, we must transport the grain and grass to the front line as soon as possible. Next, we should also prepare to go south. The dry season will come soon!"

Yuan Shao's eyes showed a little sinister, and he warned.

"No!" Guo Tu quickly responded.

"By the way, there is news from Cao Cao. Now he has occupied the entire Yizhou, and his strength has greatly increased." Yuan Shao mentioned Cao Cao with inexplicable anger in his heart.

Because Cao Cao took Yizhou, but he didn't get any benefits.

To put it bluntly, even if Chu Feng can be severely injured this time, he is no longer Cao Cao's opponent. He has already tossed away all his background because of two consecutive battles in Jizhou.

On the other hand, Cao Cao, Guanzhong moved millions of people, and now Yizhou has millions more. Counting Xiliang and other places, the population of people under Cao Cao's command is probably approaching tens of millions, and this number is already infinitely close to that of Chu Feng.

Now, only his subordinates have fewer people.

"My lord, there has been no news from Cao Cao recently. It was said last time that after the autumn harvest, he will enter the Huaihe River along the Yingshui River and camp on the north bank of the Huaihe River." Xu You clasped his fists immediately.

"Soon!" Yuan Shao muttered.

"My lord, in fact, in my opinion, Cao Cao is currently occupying Yizhou, and his strength has greatly increased. In addition to his alliance with the Guishuang Empire, which has as many as 50 million soldiers and horses, our army is much weaker."

"In this battle, even if our army caters to it, we should stay behind. Otherwise, Chu Feng will be destroyed. With Cao Cao's ambition, he will naturally attack the lord. This must be guarded against!"

Xu You looked dignified and said solemnly.

"Well, that's exactly what I mean. Cao Cao has many soldiers and horses, and the mountains and rivers are dangerous. Even if Chu Feng is eliminated in the future, he will still be the biggest obstacle!" Yuan Shaozheng nodded emphatically.

"My lord, I have a suggestion from my subordinates." Xu You hesitated a little, but still said.

"Let's hear it!" Yuan Shao was a little curious.

"My lord, the reason why the Guishuang Empire aided Cao Cao is said to be for the countries of the Western Regions. As far as I can see, I am afraid it is not that simple. I suspect that the Guishuang Empire intends to get involved in the big man!"

"Now he has formed an alliance with Cao Cao. No one knows why, but he can send someone to contact him. Maybe he can find a chance to defeat the enemy in the future when he fights with Cao Cao!"

Xu You narrowed his eyes and said solemnly.

"You mean we're also going to contact the Guishuang Empire?" Yuan Shao squinted his eyes, then his pupils showed a bright light, and said with a smile: "It's a good idea, maybe there's something we don't know about!"

"In this way, I will leave this matter to you. If you need money or a beauty, you can ask at any time. I will arrange someone to send it to you. As long as you can get online with the Guishuang Empire, you can do it!"

"Your subordinates take orders!" Xu You clasped his fists and said immediately.

----

The autumn harvest is in full swing!

In the fields, countless old farmers were sweating like rain, waving sickles in their hands, grabbing the heavy grain, but the smiles on the faces of the people under the command of the three princes were completely different.

Under Chu Feng's rule, the people's faces were filled with smiles.

However, under Yuan Shao and Cao Cao's command, the people occasionally smiled, but they were more confused about the future, and they were thinking about how to live this winter and how to live the next spring and summer.

And at this moment, outside Chang'an City.

In the Yellow River water system, countless first-cut grains have begun to be loaded, and then go along the Yellow River East, ready to divert to Honggou, and finally enter Yingshui to reach the front line.

As for Cao Cao, he has already returned to Chang'an.

All he needs to do is to choose a day to send troops to Hefei.

As for Yizhou, he dispatched General Jin to garrison in order to deter all parties. Yu Jin was regarded as the number one general with a foreign surname under Cao Jun's rule, and he was a leader in all aspects of commanding the army.

Because of the ban on garrisoning, Cao Cao was relieved.

At the same time, Cao Cao mobilized countless soldiers and horses to Yufuguan. The general of the army was Xu Huang, who was preparing to approach Jingzhou on this road, and Xu Huang had the style of Zhou Yafu, brave and resourceful, and could invade Jingzhou.

And beside Cao Cao, there are Xia Houyuan, Cao Ren, Ma Chao, Pang De, Sun Ce, Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, Zhou Yu, Le Jin, Li Dian, Zang Ba, Li Tong, Man Chong and other generals, who can be regarded as shining stars.

And except those who surrendered before,

In the Yizhou battle, Wu Yi stayed in Yizhou to help him stabilize Yizhou, Zhang Ren surrendered, and general Yan Yan, overall counting, Cao Cao's army and horse generals are definitely not small.

-

At this moment, in the hall.

Civil and military officials are all present, but they are all talking about it, waiting for one person, even the first emperor, Liu Xie, is eagerly waiting.

"This Cao Cao is really going too far!"

"It's just that there is no one in the eyes, and the emperor is not in the eyes at all!"

"But have you heard that Cao Cao came back in a hurry after pacifying Yizhou this time, and it is said that he was going to fight Chu Feng to the death, and food and grass from all over the place began to be dispatched!"

"Can you win?"

"Who knows, but it is said that Guishuang's 20 army will also participate in it. With the addition of Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and other troops, it is estimated that Chu Feng's side will be tough!"

At this moment, there are endless discussions in the court.

Everyone is talking about recent news.

"Come on, come on, shut up!"

Someone whispered a reminder, and everyone lowered their heads and looked back from the corner of their eyes.

I saw that Cao Cao walked into the court, with a sword hanging on his waist, and a hearty smile on his face, because the victory in Yizhou allowed Cao Cao to regain his previous self-confidence, and he believed that Chu Feng would definitely lose in this battle.

"My minister has seen His Majesty!" Cao Cao cupped his hands.

Liu Xie swallowed his saliva: "Love, Ai Qing is alive!"

What Liu Xie hates most is Cao Cao, because his queen was lost by Cao Cao and left in Hefei.

"Living up to His Majesty's entrustment, Yizhou has returned to His Majesty's control, filled with 83 households, 420 million people, and enough grain in the warehouse to feed [-] troops for several years. This is a great victory!"

Cao Cao immediately reported the happy event,

It's just that everyone in the court knows about it.

"Aiqing has worked so hard. Aiqing has worked so hard in this battle. You should be rewarded! I will honor you." Liu Xie said so far, but he didn't know what to say, because Cao Cao was already an extremely powerful minister.
It is the current prime minister, and one step further, it will be the throne.

"Your Majesty, I just did what I should do. Your Majesty can give all the rewards to the soldiers who fought bravely!" Cao Cao quickly answered, this is not the time to presume.

"By the way, Your Majesty, this time I came back to challenge Your Majesty. I want to lead the victorious army to Hefei, Chu Feng's camp, to put down the Chu thieves in one fell swoop, and help the big man to restore the court!"

Cao Cao spoke righteously and impassionedly.

"Okay, okay, very good, I appointed Aiqing as the general to suppress the rebellion, Aiqing just let go and do it!" Liu Xie hurriedly said with a smile, he was afraid that if he made a wrong move, he would be punished by Cao Cao.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Cao Cao said, "Later, I hope that Your Majesty will issue an appeal to the world, and I will personally lead a man of insight, a loyal and good man, to wipe out Chu Feng."

"Okay, okay!" Liu Xie nodded quickly.

He was bitter in his heart, and all the bullshit proclamations were written by Cao Cao's people. At best, he was a tool in Cao Cao's hands, and he went through the process in front of civil and military officials.

Especially now that the queens around him are all Cao Cao's daughters, he simply would rather die than live.

Seeing Cao Cao retreating aside, Liu Xie swallowed his saliva, squeezed out a warm smile and said, "My dear friends, there is still something to do, if there is nothing else, then retreat!"

Everyone looked at each other, and silently lowered their heads and cupped their hands and shouted: "Respectfully, Your Majesty!"

-

After leaving the court, Cao Cao looked solemn.

Facing a guard next to him, he said: "Go, let all the civil and military personnel in the city come over immediately, I have something to explain!"

"No!" The guard immediately responded.

Shaoqing, will be in the mansion.

Cao Cao had already arrived.

At this moment, many civil and military personnel came over one after another.

In the hall, Cao Cao glanced over. The civil servants were led by Xun Yu, Xun You, Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, and the generals were Xia Houyuan, Zhang Ren, Yan Yan, Man Chong, Li Tong and others.

Except for Cao Ren, Sun Ce, Ma Chao and others who are already in Yuzhou, almost everyone else is here.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Cao Cao stood up and said, "Before I came back, I had made arrangements to attack Chu Feng during the autumn harvest, and now the people outside the city are busy harvesting.

This time, we must ensure the safety of food production, ensure that it is transported to the front line as quickly as possible, ensure that more food is transported to the front line, and collect more food, so as to increase the chance of winning.This point, Xun Yu will let you handle it! "

Xun Yu froze for a moment, cupped his fists and wanted to say something, but swallowed the words back: "No!"

He knows that the people are already overwhelmed, and increasing taxes will only make things worse, and he also wants to defend the people, but the current situation cannot tolerate this, and Cao Cao will not agree.

"In this battle, I will personally lead the cavalry."

"The Chu army's strength is limited, but our army occupies a favorable location. We should set up more suspicious troops to disperse the Chu army's strength. Li Dian, you lead three thousand troops, send troops to Wuguan, and raise more banners to confuse the enemy."

Cao Cao looked at Li Dian and arranged.

"Promise!" Li Dian agreed.

"Immediately send an order to Cao Ren, Ma Chao, and Sun Ce to prepare to go eastward and guard the Yingshui main road. The Chu army must not be able to control Yingshui, otherwise our army's food road will be in danger!" Cao Cao said again.

"No!" Guo Jia agreed.

"The focus of this battle is Shouchun, Hefei, and crossing the river. Although it is not difficult to cross the river during the dry season, the Chu army has the advantage of boat division after all. Be careful. I intend to divide the troops into multiple routes when they approach the Huaihe River, so that they can be dispersed again. The strength of the Chu army."

"As long as a group of soldiers and horses cross the river successfully, with the ability of my Xiliang iron cavalry or Guishuang cavalry, I can go straight to Hefei at any time. At that time, Chu Feng's Huaihe defense line will be destroyed by itself!"

Cao Cao said heartily, with expectations.

He knew that the most important thing in this battle was to cross the river. As long as they succeeded in crossing the river, they could completely ignore the logistics and go straight to Hefei. At that time, Chu Feng could only abandon the Huaihe defense line and return to Hefei.

In this way, Hefei will be destroyed!

"My lord, Chu Feng is a hero, he will definitely see through our army's plan, and I'm afraid he will also prepare countermeasures." Guo Jia frowned and defended.

"Don't worry, this is a conspiracy. I don't believe it. He can prevent the dry season from coming? The Yangtze River is still difficult to cross during the dry season, but the Huaihe River is different. There are only a hundred steps in the narrower part, and the dry season can be crossed by boat."

Cao Cao waved his hands, disapproving.

And this pre-war discussion lasted for a long time, and finally the number of soldiers and horses to be dispatched, the generals who joined the army, etc. were finally finalized!
