Three Kingdoms: Cao Ying's mastermind, from nine to five

Chapter 27 Remnant soldiers will not be a concern, do it!
Chen stay.

Government office.

After the dead of night, most of the people had disappeared, except for the merchants who rushed to the city at night, there were only patrolling soldiers left on the road.

At this time, outside the government office, a general led a scribe to the gate of the mansion with his usual demeanor.

The general who came was called Zhang Chao, Zhang Miao's younger brother.

The scribes he brought had just come out of Xun Yu during the day, so naturally they would not be small people.

Informed the guards in front of the door, and said in a loud voice, "Go and report, just say that Chen Gongtai came from Dongjun. After the official business, he came to pay a visit to the prefect."

"Yes!"

The guards immediately entered the courtyard and walked quickly.

But it happened that Zhang Miao seemed to be waiting, he didn't fall asleep late at night, and he was still looking at something in front of the file.

He looked quite nervous, and when he saw Su Wei, he immediately beckoned him to pass.

Su Wei immediately said: "Master, Chen Gongtai is here to pay a visit."

"Well, he and I have a feeling of recommendation, but this person is very friendly and knows to come to pay me a visit."

"Perhaps it was a starry night, and I just didn't sleep. Now that the war is starting, Meng De can't sleep day and night in Xuzhou. How can I neglect it? Please come in."

Zhang Miao smiled.

Su Wei immediately clasped his fists seriously, "My lord, it's hard work."

Not only the war started, but the recent advocacy of dedication to duty has set off a trend, almost all officials are vying for power, competing for integrity and self-discipline, and obeying public order and discipline.

If there are political affairs, it is common to not go to bed early. This is a custom brought up by a certain official in Juancheng, Dongjun County.

At this time, even those who were on patrol knew it.

Passed very enthusiastically.

Soon, Zhang Chao led Chen Gong to the entrance of the main hall. After meeting, the two greeted each other and exchanged many compliments.

Chen Gong is now an official in Dongjun, assisting Xiahou Dun, the prefect of Dongjun.

And Zhang Miao is the prefect of Chenliu, but in fact, both of them belong to the famous people of the Yanzhou faction.

The celebrities in Yanzhou are headed by Bian Rang, a celebrity in the country.

What made them uncomfortable was that Bian Rang had already been killed and died quietly in prison, saying that he was too ill to match the cold in prison.

In fact, who knows... Cao Cao has the final say on an understatement of guilt.

Although the reason why Bian Rang was imprisoned was also because he slandered Cao Cao's government wantonly, and he was too noble and angered the powerful lord.

Zhang Miao and Chen Gong elected Cao Cao as the shepherd of Yanzhou, welcomed him into Yanzhou, and let his Dongjun soldiers and horses recruit troops from all over the country. Gradually, they realized that something was wrong.

Cao Cao obtained a large amount of property, farm cattle, and soldiers and horses by pacifying millions of Qingxu Huangjin.

Afterwards, the strategy of farming the land has once again gained the support of the people, and it is now unwaveringly stable.

They can't compare.

No matter how anxious Zhang Miao was, he couldn't get it in ten years. This is Cao Cao's skill.

Not only that, after Cao Cao entered the country, he directly issued a merit-seeking order based on talent.

The gentry was helped by Xun Yu, so Yingshui recommended a large number of talented officials to serve as officials in various places, and Xun Yu never filled his own pockets and used public officials to benefit his own interests.

Known as a pure and pure gentleman, the people he recommends are all people with real talents and practical learning. They can govern a party in a short period of time and are very effective.

And in the faction of the poor and common people, there are more unknown and unknown people, but they are even more talented!

For example, Xi Zhong, Xu Zhen who was promoted by Xi Zhong, and Mao Jie, Han Hao, Zao Zhi, etc., are all people with little fame and political achievements.

The two chatted for a while, reminiscing about the past, talking about the current situation, and feeling the emperor's hardships, and his ambition was hard to relax.

After the guards and the maid retreated back and forth several times, Chen Gong was about to say goodbye, Zhang Miao pulled him over with a big air, and said, "How can I let you live in the post house so late at night? You can stay at my place today. .”

"Since the public platform is here, let's have another night of drinking."

"This,"

Chen Gong was stunned immediately, and said: "Tomorrow we have to go back to Dongjun, Meng Zhuo should know, now that the lord is out fighting, we must not slack off, we must do our duty faithfully."

"No need to do that, the territory is peaceful, so don't drink it!" Zhang Miao pulled him affectionately, and then went to the inner courtyard.

Chen Gong seemed to be overwhelmed, so he had no choice but to follow.

Many servants in the hall saw this scene, and most of the maidservants who came in and out also knew it.

Zhang Chao went with them, walking last.

Soon, some guards were driven away from the inner courtyard, Zhang Miao entered the wing room of his own inner courtyard, closed the door and was alone with Chen Gong.

Zhang Chao stayed outside.

inside the room.

As soon as Zhang Miao changed his normal routine, he immediately said in a low voice: "You must not take risks, you can only do it with such caution."

"Although there are no unfamiliar faces in my government office, it is inevitable that there will be a little meticulous work, no wonder on the public platform."

Chen Gong narrowed his eyes, bowed and said: "Understood, the eunuch is far-sighted, that's exactly what it should be."

"Now is our best time!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately took Zhang Miao's hand, with an earnest and sincere expression, and continued: "I have made an agreement with Marquis Wen, and welcoming him into Yanzhou this time will definitely drive Cao Cao away."

"Who?!" Zhang Miao didn't know who Wen Hou was.

But he was a little surprised in his heart, he was surprised that what Chen Gong said to himself before was actually this.

Wen Hou Lu Bu! !
Of course Chen Gong also understood what Zhang Miao meant, and said with a smile, "Don't worry about the prefect. Although Marquis Wen is brave, he is simple and not good at governing. He is brave, but we need to rely on the famous people in Yanzhou for internal affairs."

"Wouldn't it be better than Cao Cao squeezing me out?"

"The generals in Yanzhou have all gone to Xuzhou to fight. There are no famous generals left. Most of them are ministers who rule the country. The remaining soldiers will not be a concern!"

"Now, I have arranged a good manpower in Puyang. After Xiahou Yuan let go, I will immediately welcome Lu Bu to Puyang. He still has more than ten thousand old troops from Chang'an under his command."

"You can enter Puyang and defend it. At that time, you only need to send troops to occupy Juancheng. With Cao Cao's family in your hands, Xiahou Dun will be in trouble."

"It can be done."

Zhang Miao hesitated for a moment, then his eyes lit up, thinking of a plan.

Take advantage of it.

Attack its confidants also.

Cao Cao must have never imagined that there would be internal chaos in Yanzhou.

"The eunuch needs to make a decision early, and don't think too much about it. If you don't act, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao will definitely harm the eunuch. Don't forget, Yuan Shao has already asked Cao Cao to do it several times."

Although Cao Cao never made a move, he also clearly stated that he would keep Zhang Miao, but this feeling was like a knife hanging above his head, ready to fall at any time.

"Cao Mengde didn't kill the prefect, not out of love." Seeing Zhang Miao moved, Chen Gong tightened his hand suddenly, approached and said in a low voice: "He just cared about the prefect's eight chefs, and he didn't want to let himself be famous. dirty, and I don’t want to be Yuan Shao’s butcher’s knife.”

"If in the future, the general trend has come, the prefect will not be spared."

"This!" Zhang Miao's eyes trembled, and he nodded silently. Once he made a decision, his whole demeanor suddenly changed, becoming more decisive.

"When will we do it?" Zhang Miao asked.

Chen Gong was overjoyed, and immediately bowed down, "Seven days later, Puyang opens the city to welcome Marquis Wen, please go down to Juancheng as the prefect. Once this happens, the whole of Yanzhou will definitely surrender!"

They are powerless to resist also.

"it is good!!"
