Soldiers come to the world

It was mid-November, and the first snow fell in Yedu since the beginning of winter. The crystal clear white fine snow fluttered down from the sky and sprinkled the whole city. (Update is the fastest and most stable)

It has been five days since Cao Cao returned to Yedu, maybe he really didn't adapt to Jianghuai, because his condition became increasingly serious in Shouchun, but after returning to Yedu, his condition improved. Although his body was still very thin, his complexion gradually improved.

Cao Cao stood in front of the window with a stick, staring at the falling snowflakes outside the window, his eyes were full of worry, it was already snowing in the north, so what about the situation in Hefei?Just received news from Hefei this morning, Shizi told the Han army in a letter that he had withdrawn from Hefei and stationed at Ruxukou.

No matter whether the Han army is in Hefei or Ruxukou, Cao Cao sees no difference and can launch an attack at any time. Now that the severe winter is coming, this year's autumn grain harvest will be poor, and next spring will be doomed to famine, but the battle is still going on. How long can Cao's army last?It really worried Cao Cao.

It made Cao Cao even more worried that there seemed to be disharmony within the Cao army in Hefei. Cao Pi implicitly stated one thing in his letter.

Of course Cao Cao understood the huge risk behind this trivial incident, and there was a conflict within the Cao army. No wonder Liu Jing withdrew his troops to Ruxukou, and he obviously saw the internal strife in Cao's army.

Cao Cao attached great importance to the Battle of Hefei and invested resources and troops at all costs in order to keep this southeastern city and prevent the Han army from opening the southeastern gate of the Central Plains.

Although the failure of the Battle of Hefei will bring serious consequences, it is insignificant compared to the infighting of the Cao army.

Now Cao Jun's internal strife has begun to appear, no matter what to extinguish the signs, Cao Cao can't make up his mind about how to deal with it.

At this time, daughter Cao Xian walked behind her father and carefully put on a big cloak. Cao Cao turned his head and looked at his daughter lovingly and smiled: "Help me to Quetai and walk around in the room. I'm so bored."

Cao Xian nodded and helped his father walk slowly towards Que Terrace. A few maids held up green umbrellas and followed closely behind them. Cao Cao walked to the stone railing and a thin layer of snow had already accumulated on the railing in front of the stone railing. The lake has been covered with a thick layer of ice, and dozens of large ships are frozen in the lake, and the sky has become gray and the lake is one color.

At this time, Cao Cao looked back at his daughter and found that her daughter was very silent, "Xian'er is not feeling well, go to rest!" Cao Cao said to his daughter with concern.

Cao Xian shook his head and lowered his head in a low voice: "Daughter is fine!"

Cao Cao stared at it for a moment and sighed softly in his heart. His daughter was supposed to get married in April, but when the Battle of Hefei broke out, the marriage was over. Marrying a young talent is like a crucian carp crossing the river, so you don't have to worry about not getting married."

Cao Xian withdrew his hand and shook his head, tears poured out, turned his head away, quickly wiped away the tears and forced a smile: "My daughter has to take good care of her father and doesn't want to get married!"

"Stupid boy, what woman won't get married!"

Cao Cao understood his thoughts and patted the back of his hands lightly, smiling comfortingly: "Actually, the marriage is only temporarily delayed, so Liu Jing will also return the marriage certificate? I believe it's time to get married after this battle is over."

Cao Xian lowered his head and helped his father walk slowly. Cao Cao also no longer mentioned the matter of marriage, looking at snowflakes flying all over the sky and smiling: "My biggest wish is that brothers and sisters can form one heart and stop fighting so that after a hundred years, we can rest in peace."

Cao Xian bit his lip lightly, as if he was thinking of something but didn't say it. Cao Cao felt hesitant to speak, so he asked, "What do you think?"

"My daughter thinks that since the father has decided that the eldest brother will succeed, he should let the eldest brother be the eldest brother. Now it is very difficult."

"What happened?" Cao Cao asked solemnly.

"Daughter knows that food prices in Yedu once skyrocketed, so the people and officials scolded my elder brother for being incompetent, but the price of food immediately dropped as soon as my father came back. Have you ever thought about the reason for this?"

Cao Cao laughed: "After you come back, you do everything. Why did the price of food drop?"

"That's the problem. In fact, my brother has done a lot of things and issued many orders, but no one is willing to implement them. But when my father came back, the subordinates got scared and immediately carried out my orders. As a result, the price of food fell, my father, my brother Quan!"

Cao Cao felt displeased and said, "Xian'er don't meddle in government affairs."

However, Cao Xian obeyed, wanting to bite his lip to his father too much in his heart: "Even if father is angry, why does father let the second brother take the military power in Youzhou, even if he is angry? Doesn't father know the future consequences?"

"No more!"

Cao Cao yelled angrily, pushed him away, Cao Xian angrily reprimanded: "After that, don't meddle in government affairs, no matter whether you are in Wei State or Han State, you are not allowed to participate in political affairs!"

Cao Xian knelt down and wept: "Father and daughter only care about government affairs, I am afraid that my brothers will kill each other in the future!"

Cao Xian's words deeply hurt Cao Cao's heart. His eyes darkened and he almost fainted. The two maids hurriedly supported him and shook their heads, "Help me back!"

Cao Cao was supported by two maids and walked towards the room, only Cao Xian was still kneeling on the ground, tears streaming down his face, sad because of his unlucky marriage, and also saddened by the deep conflict between his elder brothers Fall on the body and head.

It took a long time for the two maids to come out of the room to help Cao Xian. They comforted Cao Xian in a low voice and slowly returned to the room. Cao Cao stood in front of the window and looked at the tears all over his face. His daughter couldn't help but sighed.

Slowly sat down at the table and thought for a moment, picked up a pen and wrote a warrant to Hefei.

.........

The handover ceremony began in Hefei City. Due to the arrival of Cao Cao's warrant, Zhang Liao and Xu Huang returned to Ye. Cao Ren was appointed as the coach of Hefei. Cao Zhen was appointed as the commander of Shouchun. Zhang Liao had no choice but to transfer the military power of Hefei to Cao Ren. Except for the main generals of Hefei and Shouchun, the rest of the generals were appointed and dismissed by the son.

Cao Pi immediately appointed Niu Jin as the deputy general of Hefei, and demoted Zang Ba to the deputy commander of Hefei's logistics.

The news soon spread to Ruxukou, Liu Jing learned that Cao Jun had changed generals, and immediately ordered Gan Ning and Pang De to advance side by side, cutting off Shouchun and Hefei again. Two armies of [-] cavalry set off overnight and headed north quickly.

Two days later, the wind turned to the west, and Liu Jing immediately seized the opportunity to worship the water god by facing the river and once again led an army of 15 and thousands of warships to the mighty north to kill Hefei City again.

........

When the Han army withdrew, the first thing Zhang Liao did was to restore the original river and dredge the newly formed Concubine Lake and Xiaoyaojin Water, so that the canal and lake water would flow back to Hefei's moat, and the river was filled again.

Although Cao Ren took over Zhang Liao's military power, he is also experienced. The general still implemented the various defensive strategies Zhang Liao had set before. This made Cao Ren completely control the 5-man army.

In addition, due to the imbalance in grain reserves between Shouchun and Hefei, Cao Pi ordered the transportation of [-] shi of grain from Hefei to Shouchun to solve the shortage of grain and grass for Shouchun's army.

At night, a fleet of grain transport ships sails quietly in the canal. The fleet is composed of three hundred shi civilian ships. The ships are not large but there are more than [-] ships that can transport [-] shi of grain at a time.

This is the second time the fleet has transported [-] shi of grain to Shouchun before. In this second batch of [-] shi, each grain transport ship was guarded by ten Cao Jun soldiers in addition to three boatmen.

In addition, there are [-] troops guarding each side of the canal, a total of [-] troops guarding this food transport team can be called a heavy guard.

At this time, the fleet had left Hefei forty miles, and then went northward for ten miles and was about to enter Shaopi Lake. At this moment, there was a dull thunder in the distance, and many Cao soldiers who were sleeping were awakened. They stood up and looked towards the shore. This muffled thunder came from the south.

Gradually, a large group of black shadows appeared on the shore and were moving rapidly north. The Jiangdong army might still be confused, but they were all too familiar with the situation of the northern Cao army. They immediately shouted, "Cavalry, come on the shore, cavalry!"
