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

Chapter 84 Xu Bowen, will you die if you say something I love to hear? !

"Eighty thousand!"

Dong Zhao was terrified at the moment, and when he looked at Cao Cao again, the warmth like a warm sun was gone. The lord, even his smile was full of treachery.

It was really the comment that the Xu brothers once gave him.

Traitors in troubled times!
At this time, the diversion was definitely planned for a long time, and it didn't matter whether the emperor was willing or not.

Where is Xu County?
Even people like Dong Zhao, who had already planned the return to the east for a long time, had to think carefully before they could think about it.

Someone in the rear officials also noticed something was wrong and started whispering.

The Son of Heaven in the carriage immediately heard the commotion outside, and then ordered someone to lift the curtain of the carriage, and poked his head out to inquire.

"What happened?!"

"Ai Qing, Ai Qing?!"

"Cao Aiqing!"

After Cao Cao heard about it, he immediately got off the carriage, got on his horse and went to Liu Xie in the middle with a calm expression, "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"

"Aiqing, why did you turn around? Didn't you go south all the way to Luyang?"

"Oh! The soldiers and horses of this minister are all in Xu County. If you enter Yuzhou, you can better protect your majesty. You don't need to worry. Just move to Xu County with your minister. From now on, all 20 soldiers and horses of your minister will be stationed Nearby, His Majesty will never be in any danger."

"Two, 20?!"

Liu Xie froze for a moment, as if petrified, opened his lips slightly, dumbstruck.

Stretching out his hand to cover the door curtain, he stared at Cao Cao with wide eyes, but was so astonished that he couldn't say a word.

How could there be 20 troops? !

Didn't the abbot say before... that there are only eight thousand, even counting the soldiers and horses in the territory, it is only tens of thousands. Didn't he say that Cao Cao is not a hero, so don't worry about him being as strong as Dong Zhuo?

He has... 20 troops to be stationed in Xu County? !

This is not to protect me, this is to imprison me! !
"Hey...Your Majesty, there is really no need to worry. Xu County is a place of literary exchange. Back then, four of the famous families of Yingchuan's four chiefs were all in Xu County."

"In the future, there will be a lot of talents, and you will have no worries about food and drink. There will never be anyone who will starve you,"

Cao Cao laughed loudly, reined in the reins, and told all the officials to change the route. Although many people had complaints in their hearts, they dared not speak out.

Moreover, the tiger and leopard cavalry were guarding at the side at this time, and the soldiers and horses of Dong Cheng and Yang Feng were not nearby, so how could they resist.

I can only follow Cao Cao's opinion and change the route directly.

But there are also some people who have already accepted their fate in their hearts.

After all, it still fell into the hands of Cao Cao.

The emperor traveled all the way, starting from Chang'an, going through life and death, and finally arrived at Luoyang. He never expected that the one who finally welcomed the emperor was Cao Mengde, who had never been mentioned before.

Not the most majestic Yuan Benchu.

Neither is Yuan Gonglu, who dominates the south of the Yangtze River, nor Liu Jingsheng, who is the emperor's uncle.

Really embarrassing.

……

At this moment, Yang Feng, who was behind, finally found the way, and suddenly became distraught, and the leader came to chase him.

"Cao Mengde lied to me!?"

"Where is he taking the emperor!?"

"Dong Gongren, Dong Gongren, what you said to me before were all lying to me!?"

Yang Feng's roar echoed in the mountains, but it seemed that it could not reach Dong Zhao's ears. At this time, he led the troops and ran wildly, with the cavalry chasing the tigers and leopards away.

But Cao Cao used heavy cavalry to block the rear, and collided with the soldiers and horses, and the front army fought into a group in an instant.

After fighting for about a stick of incense, a large number of Cao troops were killed from the side road Daguguan, and the three leaders were all extremely brave.

Next to the Cao's flag, there is also a Xu character flag.

This army of soldiers and horses is brave in battle, and the cavalry is strong and strong. The horses are like stepping on flat ground, and even on a swaying horseback, they can be as stable as a mountain.

They rushed into Yang Feng's army like a torrent, just like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. Every knight was extremely excited, and every time he raised his knife and slashed, he would shout to frighten the enemy.

Because of this, his style was extremely brave, and Yang Feng's soldiers and horses were killed and scattered in one charge.

Let Yang Feng be defeated.

Only then did I realize that Cao Cao had planned it long ago, and they had been deceived all along.

"A traitor! A traitor!"

"General, retreat first! The reinforcements are Cao Chun, and these are also tiger and leopard cavalry!!"

"withdraw!!"

The voices of many lieutenants came to his ears, and Yang Feng's heart was blocked. He turned his head and took a deep look at the Xu Ziqi, and immediately ordered to withdraw.

Get out of this place of right and wrong.

And Dong Cheng, before he could even react from the beginning to the end, found that the Son of Heaven had turned, from south to east, turning into the road to Yuzhou.

Seeing the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry killed from Dagu Pass, everything became clear, there was no need to ask any more questions, although he was anxious, he was dumbfounded.

The [-] elite Cao Mengde mentioned at the beginning were just the vanguard soldiers who came to pick up the emperor, and there were thousands of people in ambush outside.

……

The battlefield was quickly cleaned up, and Xu Zhen and Cao Chun led the crowd to quickly catch up with the emperor's army.

It took half a day to reach Xu County.

Xun Yu brought people there ahead of time and greeted him in front of the gate of Xu County. Almost all the local officials and people came out of the city to welcome him, and they were extremely enthusiastic.

Compared with Luoyang's bleakness, this place is indeed much more popular.

At this time, Cao Cao was proud of being in front, and the journey was smooth.

When the civil and military officials of the Han Dynasty arrived in a familiar place, they could see the people living in peace. On both sides of the road, they could overlook the extremely well-kept farmland Sang Mo, and the situation was indeed gratifying.

And there are more and more soldiers and horses stationed outside the city, which makes people feel at ease, but also gradually makes people worry.

Although Cao Mengde respected him and never said any disrespectful words, but his army was too powerful, no one could guarantee that he would not be the next Dong Zhuo.

Therefore, I am also worried.

During the march, Cao Cao called Xu Zhen to sit opposite each other on the frame of the carriage. The two discussed what happened before and after this time, and told about the arrangement in Runan during this period.

In fact, it's just a little chat.

At the same time, I also want to ask Xu Zhen what kind of official position he wants in the future. After all, the emperor has already obtained it, and it doesn't matter whether the other royalist generals belong to him or not.

It's time to prepare to reward the meritorious officials this time.

"My official positions are all based on my lord's wishes, let's talk about the current military formation," Xu Zhen handed over his hands, and did not chat with Cao Cao on business. "The tiger and leopard cavalry lost 360 people, including 260 people who were disabled, and the guard camp was lost. 430 people, including 290 disabled people."

"There were 160 war horses at the time of the expedition, and now there are more than 600 more horses, but many of them are getting old and need to be replaced. Our three states are all in the hinterland of the Central Plains, and there are not many pastures to raise horses. This is the next important task. and also."

"There are many cavalry in the north. After that, the lord needs to buy horses for several years, raise horses, let them rest and multiply, so that they can accumulate energy and ride to fight against the enemy."

"and many more!"

Cao Cao immediately raised his hand to interrupt Xu Zhen, with a displeased expression on his face, "Are you paying me the bill?"

"You and I are not private merchants, why should we be so careful?!"

Xu Zhen smacked her lips and murmured, "Isn't it that I haven't finished brushing..."

"what?!"

"No, I still have some last things to report."

"Say!"

Cao Cao pursed his lips angrily, leaned directly against the inner wall of the carriage, and looked at the vague scenery outside the door curtain with no love in his life.

Why is it so difficult to say a few heartfelt words to you!

I haven't seen you for several months, do you never miss me? !
Concerned to ask a few questions about my physical condition?Do you care if my headache is still serious? !
Doesn't your heart ache? !Is it made of stone?
So dirty!
I only know to report and report! !Not a word I like to hear!
"Runan has a population of about 30. I went to find out whether there are still celebrities and hermits. I found traces of the Xu brothers. One took refuge in Shu, and the other hid in the mountains."

"Oh? But Xu Shao and Xu Jing?!" Cao Cao's eyes lit up immediately, and his expression gradually became joyful. "These two are still alive?"

"That's right, I think it would be beneficial if you can invite Xu County."

Xu Zhen cupped his hands.

Cao Cao nodded immediately, and his mind was opened for a while, so that he would not be as blocked as before. He sat upright and said happily to Xu Zhen, "Bowen, do you know how I got their comments?"

Xu Zhen was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "My lord, there are still some things to report, so I will continue."

"Tsk."

Cao Cao stared at him for a long time, and his newly opened mind was sealed tightly with stone mud in an instant, and he added a big iron chain outside.

Xu Bowen, you are poisonous!I really want to strangle you!

Do you have nothing else to do besides business?You kid can't ask for a little benefit for yourself? !This is a great time, if other scholars would have already started licking it!

The emperor is in your hands, I am in front of you, and your merits are enough, wouldn't it be nice to ask for a title with a few good words in front of me? !
Guangzong Yaozu!You know report report report!
A lifetime of dirty work!Stupid as a pig! !
Of course, Cao Cao scolded in his heart, his expression was still very calm, and he stared at Xu Zhen with a smile on his lips.

It's just that the look in his eyes was somewhat sharp, and he couldn't hide it.

"In addition to the Xu brothers, I have recruited a lot of craftsmen in Runan. After a lot of hard work, I found that there is still a breakthrough in the armament. From now on, I will use Shuo as the model to build lances."

"This lance can be used by heavy cavalry. The double stirrups are built on both sides of the horse, and the heavy cavalry can be ordered to use the lance to charge. Once it becomes an army, it is not inferior to a chariot."

"Well, good." Cao Cao nodded perfunctorily, and while Xu Zhen was bowing, he gave him a blank look.

My heart feels numb.

Stupid as a pig, a pig knows that it needs good food to eat! !
Xu Zhen continued: "After the Son of Heaven enters Xu County, he will immediately expand the military camp. Before that, I asked Zixiu to send a letter to the old lady, asking him to buy a house and build a palace in Xu County."

"Start with a simple palace first, then gradually rebuild it into an imperial city, and add the Liezu Emperor's Mausoleum in the mountains for sacrifices, etc., it will cost a lot. My lord needs to discuss it carefully with Brother Wen Ruo."

"My lord, it's best not to seek control first, but to progress gradually."

"You wait!"

Cao Cao finally couldn't bear it any longer, and interrupted Xu Zhen again, staring at him with a strange expression, "You're not going to abandon me, are you?"

"No?" Xu Zhen looked calm, leaning back slightly, without any guilt, "I'm still planning to marry a wife! Why did you abandon the lord!"

"Ah!" Cao Cao clapped his hands suddenly, then leaned on the armrest and laughed, "Bowen, you haven't married the Gan family in Xiaopei, have you?"

"I didn't have time, when I settled down in Xu County, I went to marry immediately."

Speaking of this, Xu Zhen will not diverge, mainly because he is more interested in this matter.

So there was a reminder in my mind.

[March report, self-discipline value +30]

Big discount!

But it doesn't matter, it's finally saved. If you don't say these things, it will end sooner, and you will have to go less than half.

Self-discipline value and then continue to brush at night.

At this moment, the smile on Cao Cao's face gradually became a little more appreciative, as if he was looking at, pondering, and repeatedly convinced. Xu Zhen's stubble had grown up, adding a bit of maturity, his hair was tied up, and his long hair fluttered from the temples.

He still has a handsome appearance, plus he has the ability to lead troops and dare to fight on the battlefield. He was born in the army, and later he has the talent for martial arts, so that he can let the people live in peace.

In addition, Gao Jie's name is close to that of many celebrities in the country, and it can be reduced to a good story. Such a reputation can be called a celebrity. In the future, people like Xu Zhen will love people like Xu Zhen, whether they are ordinary people or scholars.

That being the case, why not cut off Liu Bei's kindness? !

"Hey, um... Then, you can still marry Gan, but before that, marry someone first."

"Huh?" Xu Zhen frowned, suddenly having a guess in his heart.

"not--"

"Cai Zhaoji?"

"My daughter!"

The two spoke at the same time, thinking they would go to the same place.

As a result, Cao Cao was disappointed, and even felt extremely helpless. He quickly sat up straight, and even thought about it, and then looked at Xu Zhen with a sad face: "How many do you want to marry?"

Xu Zhen looked away guiltily, scratched his head and said, "Well, the more the better..."

you are really...

Cao Cao really thought about this, and he also understood that the main wife will inevitably occupy a very high position in the future, and if it is his own son-in-law, he will be considered to be half of the Cao family.

After all, Xu Zhen had no parents alive.

His father treated him like this, and he had to inform his father of this in advance after returning home.

And the several daughters under her knees have gradually grown up and can be married.

Both Cao Ning and Cao Xian seem to be options.

Let's talk about it when we go back, Marquis Fei Ting's title is back, if father is told about this, he will be very pleased.

"Hmph, Bowen, you are really... I really don't know whether to say that you are a man of temperament, or to wake you up! Didn't you just report it all the time for disturbing your mood because of a woman? Why didn't you report this? You Go ahead and report!" Cao Cao gave Xu Zhen an angry look.

But I don't blame him at all, at least, I finally know what he likes, it's better than having no way to talk at the beginning, like a bastard, hard everywhere.

Xu Zhen immediately cupped his hands and said, "Okay, let's talk about how to delineate the irrigation canals in Xu County in the future."

Cao Cao: "..."

……

The emperor entered Xu County.

It can be seen that the contiguous houses are rushing to work on the palace, and the main hall in the middle has already been built.

In addition, many old objects from the Luoyang imperial city were placed on the hall. These were all hidden by the Cao family, and also donated by the Xun family and other noble families.

Prominent families have at least contributed over the years.

Seeing this, the emperor knew that Cao's intentions were considered, at least he took his mood into consideration.

"Aiqing, thank you for your hard work. I like this palace very much. I will definitely stay here in the future."

Liu Xie fumbled for the golden tiger carving on the armrest. Although it had been rusted for a long time, he recognized that it was also an old thing.

"In that case, please ask Aiqing to arrange a hundred officials for me."

A smile appeared on Cao Cao's face, and he bowed and saluted, "Here."
