Cao Thief

Chapter 719 Fake Festival (12)

There are too many great people in the world!
During the hundred years of the Three Kingdoms, it was even claimed to have gathered the elites of China for thousands of years... So many talented people, it is impossible for Cao Peng to recruit them one by one.So Zhuge Jun didn't want to stay by his side, and he didn't care.Regardless of whether the "brother's righteousness" is real or just an excuse, it's my luck and my life.It is already a great blessing to be able to go through the rebirth of the Three Kingdoms.

In a blink of an eye, it was the end of the month.

After staying in Fancheng for ten days, Duke Pang De returned to Lumen Mountain again, where he escaped from the world.

Maybe this time he entered the mountain, he would never appear again.But for Mr. Pang De, who has already fulfilled his wish, it is also a beautiful thing to live in the mountains and forests forever.As for the intrigues and intrigues in the world of mortals, there is a lot of disturbance, and it has nothing to do with him from then on.Before leaving Fancheng, Duke Pang De presented all the classics he had collected for many years to Cao Peng with only one purpose. He hoped that Cao Peng could publish these books and pass them on to the world.Pang Degong's collection may not be as rich as that of Cai Yong back then.However, many orphan, rare and even absolute copies are absolutely precious.Cao Peng couldn't help being a little moved. After discussing with Sima Hui, he finally persuaded Sima Hui to ask him to suspend the plan of asking immortals and go to the abbot of Xingyang to check the books, print and distribute them.

Sima Huiben is an educator, otherwise he would not spend all his wealth to set up Shuijing Villa to teach and educate people.

Now, Cao Peng asked him to proofread the book, which is undoubtedly a great cause that will benefit the present and benefit the future.After thinking twice, he finally agreed.

Later, Cao Peng sent people to Wolong Valley of Luhun Mountain to ask Hu Zhao to come out of the mountain.

After all, when publishing a book, proofreading is an extremely important matter.Sima Hui alone may not be able to use it.Anyway, Hu Zhao was also teaching and educating people in Luhunshan.If books can really be popularized, it will be a great merit for Hu Zhao.

Cao Peng believed that Hu Zhao would not refuse.

After persuading Sima Hui, Cao Peng also sent people to Xudu to contact Kong Rong and others.

Including Huang Chengyan, they were also invited by him.Later, he sent people to Xingyang, and asked his mother, Mrs. Zhang, to come forward and buy a piece of land at the foot of Fuxi Mountain for proofreading books.Fuxi Mountain is picturesque and it is a very good place to go.And Xingyang is located in the Central Plains, which is a place where the style of study prevails.After Cao Peng made this series of arrangements, he planned to stop asking about this matter.

Ke Fazheng saw it in his heart, and couldn't help admonishing him: "My lord has a wide network of people, and now it's a grand event to proofread books and publish them.

Since so many people have been invited, and this is not a short-term undertaking.

Why not set up an academies, and at the same time review, lectures and lectures to teach talents?This is a grand event, and others may not be able to do it with a lifetime of effort.And the son has such means, and he doesn't need to worry about money and food, why not start it with great fanfare? "

As Cao Peng's mastermind, Fazheng considered far more than Cao Peng.

If it is said that publishing books and proofreading classics is just Cao Peng's whim, then the existence of Fazheng is to allow Cao Peng to benefit from this matter to the greatest extent.Open an academy?is a good suggestion!When this academy is opened in the future, it may be able to compete with Yingchuan Academy.As the founder of the academy, all the students who leave the academy in the future will be Cao Peng's disciples.

Cao Peng was a little embarrassed, and said softly: "How can I have the time to open an academy?"

Fazheng smiled and said, "My lord, what you said is wrong, it is for you to open an academy, not to manage it.

To be honest, the young master is well-known, but if he wants to sit in the academy, his qualifications and knowledge may not be enough to take on important responsibilities.The problem is, the young master has strong connections.This review of classics brought together Sima Hui, Hu Zhao, Kong Rong and Mr. Lingyue Huang.

Which of these people is not a learned scholar who has read poetry and books?
Being able to get together now, I am afraid that even Yingchuan Academy would have to stay away.You just need to open the academy and hand it over to them.Hehe, Mr. Kong Ming is the teacher of the son, and Mr. Huang is the father-in-law of the son. Are you afraid that they will not do their best? "

Cao Peng nodded again and again, "What Xiaozhi said is very true."

At the moment, he sent several letters to various places.

At the same time, they sent people to Zhongyang Mountain to tell Huang Yueying and Xia Houzhen the plan.After all, this is not a trivial matter. Although my mother, Mrs. Zhang, is shrewd, she is a peasant woman who does not know a lot of characters.For this kind of thing, if Huang Yueying and the others come forward, the effect will be better.

Besides, Xingyang was ruled by Henan Yin.

And Xia Houyuan is Henan Yin, which can be regarded as one-third of an acre of Cao Peng's land.

After arranging this matter properly, Pang Shanmin returned from Lumen Mountain and came to Fancheng.

The governor of Jingzhou has not yet decided on a candidate.Pang Shanmin didn't do anything, so he became idle.He is good at internal affairs and also understands military affairs, so he is an excellent helper.Cao Peng wanted to recruit him, but Cao Cao had already made arrangements, but he could not be appointed for a short time.There is no way, Cao Peng can only let Pang Shanmin as a guest to help him deal with some things.Fazheng is indeed very good, but this guy's strength is in making plans and controlling the overall situation.In many details, someone really needs to fill in the gaps.

Cao Peng invited Pang Shanmin as a guest, and temporarily as a housekeeper.

Later, Pu Yangyi and Lu Mao were asked to assist Pang Shanmin, which saved him a lot of trouble.

At the same time, Cao Cao is also making intensive arrangements.

On the seventeenth day of the first lunar month, Xun Yan was ordered to go to Jiangdong. Later, he sent an envoy to make a request to Sun Quan, hoping to marry his daughter to Sun Shao.

Who is Sun Shao?

Sun Shao is the son of Sun Ce.

Sun Ce has one son and three daughters.

According to the course of history, Lu Xun's wife is one of Sun Ce's daughters.

However, Lu Xun and Gu's daughter were married back then, and because of Cao Peng's participation, they were able to conclude a good relationship.Therefore, it is naturally impossible for Sun Ce's daughter to marry Lu Xun again.Otherwise, Sun Quan would have conflicts with the Gu family.However, Gu Yong was the minister of humerus trusted by Sun Quan, so it was naturally impossible for him to do such a thing of self-destruction of the Great Wall.Moreover, Lu Xun gave birth to a son two years ago, named Lu Kang.

The real Lu Kang should have been born 20 years later.

But in this time and space, this famous general in the later period of Soochow was born ahead of schedule...

Because of Lu Hao's relationship, the connection between Cao Peng and the Jiangdong Lu family has never been interrupted.

When he learned that Lu Kang was born, Cao Peng couldn't help being filled with emotion.It's messed up, the world seems to be completely messed up...

However, for Cao Peng, it was not unacceptable.

After Sun Quan succeeded Wuhou, he made Sun Shao the Marquis of Shangyu.On the surface, he cared very much for Sun Shao, but in reality, he was very suspicious.After all, Sun Quan, the Marquis of Wu, got his position from his elder brother.According to the custom, it is only natural for the father to die and the son to succeed.Although Sun Quan is the heir recognized by Sun Ce himself, in the hearts of many people, they still hope that Sun Quan will leave in the future and Sun Shao will succeed him.

There are many people who have this thought!

Zhou Yu must be one, after all, Sun Shao is Zhou Yu's nephew in terms of closeness.

Zhang Zhao also had the same idea, as well as those loyal civil servants and generals who were promoted by Sun Ce back then.Of course, Sun Quan also has his own team.For example, people like Lu Su and Zhuge Jin firmly supported the line with Sun Quan as the core.This is what makes Sun Shao's position very awkward.On the one hand, Sun Quan cared for him, on the other hand, he was wary of him...

No wonder, Sun Shao follows his father.

He is only 13 years old, but he is born with supernatural power, extraordinary bravery, and looks like a father.

However, he has the title of Marquis of Shangyu in vain, but he has no use for it.Sun Quan definitely would not let Sun Shao show off, and even let him live with his stepmother, Da Qiao, in his hometown in Fuchun, never letting Sun Shao show off.How did Sun Shao die in history?No one knows, anyway, only his name is left in the history books, and there is also a title of Marquis of Shangyu.Other than that, there is no record of him anymore.

This is not the first time Cao Cao has married the Sun family.

Don't forget, Cao Zhang's nominal wife is a member of the Sun clan.

But this time, if Cao Cao wants to betroth his daughter to Sun Shao, Sun Quan will definitely feel a headache...Reject, or accept?
No matter which one you choose, it will make Sun Quan very uncomfortable.

After Cao Peng heard the news, he showed a bitter smile.

"Is it the older sister or the younger sister?"

"It's the second lady!"

Cao Cao now has three daughters, the eldest daughter Cao Jie, the second daughter Cao Xian, and the youngest daughter Cao Hua.Among them, Cao Hua is still young, only two years old now.Cao Jie is fifteen, and Cao Xian is twelve.Cao Peng sighed with emotion that Cao Xian's marriage to Sun Shao may not end well in the future.Now Cao Sun has not yet turned against her, but once she turns against her, how can she have good fruit to eat.The combination of political marriage will not have good results in the end.

What's more, that Sun Shao...

Cao Peng shook his head, putting aside this negative thought.

This kind of thing is not something he can meddle in.Since the three daughters of the Cao family were born in the Cao family, they may not be able to avoid this ultimate tragedy...

Historically, the three daughters of the Cao family later became empresses.

However, they became enemies of the Cao family.

"By the way, how is Mo Dao Bing's training going?"

As early as the beginning of January, Cao Peng dispatched [-] strong men from the army, equipped with a special Mo Dao for training.Due to the weight of the Mo Dao, coupled with its special structure and method of use, the members of the Mo Dao Army are also selected from thousands of choices, and it took a lot of thought.

If the height is lower than 185, don't!

Those who are thin and weak, don't!
If you haven't practiced martial arts, don't...

In short, after finally gathering 800 people, Cao Peng ordered Kou Feng to be in charge of training.For this reason, he also asked Huang Zhong for advice, turned around and created the three-style sword technique, which was used with the Mo knife.After a month, there have been some achievements.Although Kou Feng is not considered a top-notch military general, he is quite talented in training soldiers.

"Mo Dao Bing has taken shape, but it still needs to be tested in battle."

"Very good!"

Cao Peng asked some more about tiger and leopard riding training, and planned to go to the school grounds to observe in person.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, someone suddenly came to report: "The prime minister sent someone to ask to see the governor."

Cao Peng said in his heart: Here we come!

Ever since Xun Yu proposed to let Cao Peng go to Wuling to contain Liu Bei, Cao Peng knew that Cao Cao basically agreed to the request.

This time the duel does not need Nanyang County.

When Liu Bei was in Xinye, after all, he was under a lot of restraint, and it was difficult to use his full strength.But now, he is sitting on two counties, with Jiang Xia as a support inside, and secretly communicating with Sun Quan outside, which can be said to have greatly increased his strength.Although the population of Wuling and Changsha counties is not as large as that of Nanyang county, after all, he is in charge, which can reduce many unnecessary restraints.So this time, Cao Peng was very careful.

As for Cao Peng asking Xun Yu for help, Cao Caobing didn't reply.

Anyway, it was just a small revenge, and Cao Peng didn't really expect that Cao Cao could send Xun Yu over.After all, Xun Yu is the order of the minister, the servant of the Huangmen, the servant... His status is too high, and he may not agree to let Xun Yu be Cao Peng's subordinate.

By Cao Peng's side, Pang Shanmin was assisted inside, and Fazheng was outside to advise.

Wu has Huang Zhong, he has unstoppable courage, and he has Kou Feng in managing soldiers, so he is also a good hand.In addition to Wang Shuang, Fu Yan and others, there is no shortage of manpower.However, Cao Peng did not intend to lead the tiger and leopard cavalry to Wuling. It was not that Cao Cao wanted to dismiss him, but that the terrain in the Jingnan area was not suitable for cavalry to charge at all.The Jingnan area is full of mountains and rivers, and it has the taste of a small Jiangnan.In the Jingnan area, the most important thing is to rely on infantry, especially mountain infantry.Cavalry can only be used as an auxiliary unit in Jingnan, and cannot be used as the main force.

On the contrary, the cavalry will come in handy in the battle against Jiangxia.

Recently, Cao Peng, in addition to maintaining the training of tiger and leopard cavalry and Mo Dao soldiers, also specially strengthened the drills of some sword and shield soldiers.

I don't know how many soldiers Cao Cao will give him this time.

Going to Wuling will never be an easy task...

Just as he was thinking, the envoy of the Prime Minister's Mansion walked into the hall.

When Cao Peng saw the person coming, he immediately smiled, "Brother Yongnian, how are you doing?"

Because Cao Cao forcibly confiscated Zhang Song and entrusted him with the post of prime minister, Zhang Song stayed in Xiangyang after the Yizhou mission left.Compared with the rebellious Zhang Yongnian in history, Zhang Song is much more low-key.Later, after observing Cao Cao for a period of time, he presented a topographic map of Xichuan.It is precisely because of this reason that Zhang Song lived quite easily by Cao Cao's side.

Hearing Cao Peng's question, Zhang Song laughed immediately.

"Great Governor, please take care of me in the future."

"Haha, Brother Yongnian was joking, but now you are the prime minister's friend, and I should be the one who takes care of you, so don't mock me."

"Eh, I'm not joking.

We pleaded with the prime minister to come and serve the governor.The prime minister has already agreed to let me be the chief historian, and I will be at the disposal of the governor... So, from today onwards, I will be the governor's part.If it wasn't the governor who took care of Zhang, who would take care of me, Zhang Yongnian? "

"You came to my place?"

Zhang Song smiled, "Exactly."

"But I'm afraid I'm going to Wuling soon, it's very dangerous there."

"Hey, what is there to be afraid of?" Zhang Song said, turning around and picking up a scroll of brocade from the hands of the entourage behind him, "The governor is not going to Wuling soon, but must leave within three days. The chief governor is General Yokono, and the false festival is the governor of Jingnan."

After that, he presented the brocade with both hands, and then asked his followers to put a brocade box in front of Cao Peng.

The festival is a token representing the emperor in ancient times and has supreme power.

According to the law of the Han Dynasty, it is divided into four types: fake festival, Chijie, envoy Chijie and fake Huangyue.Among them, the fake yellow Yue has the greatest power, including the ministers of the false festival, Chijie and envoy Chijie, who can beheaded first and then played, and have the power of life and death. Officials can be beheaded first and then played; Chijie means that people without official positions can be beheaded in peacetime, and officials with less than two thousand shi can be beheaded in wartime.The false festival granted to Cao Peng by Cao Cao is the least powerful among the four: in peacetime, he does not have the power to execute prisoners, but in wartime, he can kill all those who violate military orders.

And now, it's war time!

Generally speaking, those who can obtain Jie Yue have a high status.

Cao Cao himself is a fake festival Yue, but under his account, Cao Peng is the first general to get the power of fake festival.

Cao Peng's expression changed suddenly, he got up quickly, and took it respectfully.

However, he couldn't understand why Cao Cao gave him such a false identity.The governor of Jingnan, in other words, the entire war in the four counties of Jingnan is controlled by him.This is Cao Cao's trust in him. It is impossible for ordinary people to obtain such power.

"Brother Yongnian, does the prime minister have any other orders?"

"The prime minister has a letter."

Zhang Song took out a letter and handed it to Cao Peng.

Cao Peng opened it and took a quick look, his expression suddenly became a little weird.

Cao Cao will attack Jiangxia in March.The task given to Cao Peng is very simple, it is to cut off the connection between Changsha and Jiangxia County, and drag Liu Bei to Jingnan.At the same time, he had to do a good job of dealing with Jiangdong's sneak attack, but he must never start a war against Jiangdong.

This difficulty is a bit big!
Jiangxia County and Changsha County must pass through Xiajun County.

To cut off the connection between the two, it is necessary to occupy Xiajun and separate Changsha and Jiangxia.

To be honest, it is not very difficult to capture Xiajun; but to capture Jun, one must go through Bo Luoyuan.However, Bo Luoyuan is occupied by Jiangdong, and Zhou Tai and Xu Sheng are not idle people.Cao Cao didn't allow Cao Peng and Jiang Dong to have conflicts. The difficulty was indeed not small.

Although Cao Cao had already sent someone to contact Jiangdong, he wanted to appease Sun Quan so that he would not participate in the war in Jingnan.

But whether Sun Quan can agree is still in between.Even if Sun Quan said yes, he couldn't guarantee it. He would support Liu Bei secretly.

How could Sun Quan not know the reason why the lips are dead and the teeth are cold?
Therefore, if you want to capture Xiajun County, you must conflict with Jiangdong.

This trouble is not small...

Cao Peng frowned and continued to look down.

But suddenly, a weird smile appeared!He seemed to understand why Cao Cao granted him a holiday, it turned out that...

Because, in addition to making Cao Peng the governor of Jingnan, Cao Cao has another appointment.

Shang Shu Ling Xun Yu participated in the prime minister's military affairs, was stationed in the Tang Dynasty, and supervised the Jingnan military... One was the governor of Jingnan military, and the other was the supervisor of Jingnan military.

It means that Xun Yu is Cao Peng's deputy, and at the same time has the responsibility of supervising the army.

Letting Cao Peng take a holiday is not only for the convenience of him in Jingnan, but also for Xun Yu's role as Cao Peng's deputy.After all, Cao Peng after the holiday will represent the emperor.Xun Yu, who is the order of the Minister, will not feel any embarrassment or dissatisfaction in his heart.

But let Xun Yu come over...

In Cao Peng's heart, he was both happy and a little nervous!
