Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 419

In September of the 11th year of Jian'an, Wang Can took the Yuan brothers to Xudu, and the Yuan brothers scattered all their belongings to the people in the court.Emperor Liu Xie Longyan was very happy, Cao Cao moved to Yecheng, and he was a loner in Xudu. Only Zhou Cang often sent people to pay tribute to him, but he regretted that his will could not be issued to Shangshutai.

When Liu Xiesheng received Wang Can, he felt very comfortable sitting on the dragon chair contributed by Wang Can.In front of the officials, Liu Xie did not hesitate to praise Zhou Cang and Wang Can, and comforted the two Yuan brothers again and again, but Liu Xie had no say in how to deal with them. Arrange a idle job, but Xia Houdun said with one eye that the two should be imprisoned and wait for Cao Cao to return to the court.The courtiers wanted to protect the two of them, but due to Xiahoudun's lustful power, they talked nonsense and didn't say how to deal with it.

Liu Xie looked at Jia Xu, but Jia Xu closed his eyes and pretended not to see, so Liu Xie could only look to Xun Yu for help.Naturally, Xun Yu would not embarrass the court, and said: "Your Majesty, Lord Sikong is now judging the Wuhuan rebellion. The Yuan brothers have lived in the north for a long time and are familiar with the local area. Why don't you send them to Jizhou to assist Lord Sikong?"

Xun Yu said that he was helping Cao Cao, but in fact he was sent by Cao Cao.Liu Xie had no choice but to ask Xiahoudun to send Eryuan to Yecheng.Xiahou Dun was secretly dissatisfied with Xun Yu's actions. Cao Cao had just pacified Hebei, but there were still many Hebei troops who fled into the mountains and took over the mountains as kings, and sent Er Yuan to Jizhou. What should we do if we make trouble?
However, when Cao Cao left Xudu, he would respect Xun Yu. Xiahou Dun sent someone to report to Cao Cao, and at the same time sent someone to send the two to Hebei via Qingzhou. Killed both of them on the way.

The news of Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi being killed on the road came back to Xudu, and there was an uproar in the capital. Everyone thought that Cao Cao had covered their ears and steal the bell and sent someone to intercept and kill them, but no one dared to speak out, only dared to express shock, and asked Xiahou Dun to send troops to wipe out the rebels .Liu Xie was indignant, but there was nothing he could do.Xun Yu felt that Xiahou Dun had done a little too much, so he said something on the sidelines, which aroused Xiahou Dun's suspicion, and sent someone to report Xun Yu's words and deeds to Cao Cao.

Yu Jin killed the two Yuans, fearing that the disaster would be brought to him, so he sent someone to give the head to Cao Cao first, claiming that it was obtained by annihilating Yuan Tan's remaining party.Cao Cao received the leader to be buried next to the graves of Yuan Shao and Yuan Tan, and he did not reproach Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin with a single word.In fact, Cao Cao also had conflicts in his heart. It would be a disaster to keep the two of them, but it can't be said that it is useless to keep the two of them. At least they can be used to gather the stragglers scattered all over the place, and kill them as soon as they are killed. On the contrary, they have less worries.

Cheng Yu came to tell Cao Cao that Brother Lu Kuang and Qianzhao were sweeping sacrifices beside Eryuan's grave.Cao Cao said only one sentence: "These are all righteous men from Hebei."

Cheng Yu said again: "Er Yuan wanted to defect to Zhou Cang, but Zhou Cang accepted all the people and escorted them to Beijing. His preservation is a disaster."

Cao Cao said impatiently: "Zhongde is worrying too much, Zhou Weiguo's move is not inappropriate. How is Fengxiao's health recently?"

"It's getting heavier and it's not getting better."

"Follow me to visit Fengxiao." Cao Cao got up and left, Cheng Yu had to follow.

"Cough, cough..." Guo Jia coughed, "I heard that Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi have been conferred."

"Feng first take good care of his illness, don't worry about it anymore."

Guo Jia shook his head slightly, "My lord, the Yuan family has been in Jizhou for 20 years and has won the hearts of the people. Even if there are people who take refuge in the lord, they are just half-hearted due to the situation, and the lord is used as an embankment."

Cao Cao nodded and said, "I already know it."

"Furthermore, even though the two Yuans are dead, Wuhuan will always be a scourge to the north. My lord must work tirelessly to conquer Wuhuan to avoid future troubles. Zhou Weiguo accepts Yuan Shang's surrender, so that he can go south. If he obeys the lord, that's all. , If you look for an opportunity to evade or don't do your best, the lord should release your tolerance and completely eradicate him."

Cao Cao took a sharp breath, "I will write down the words of filial piety."

Guo Jia closed his eyes to rest for a while, and then said: "Although my lord is in Yecheng, I should always sit in Xudu..." Before he finished speaking, he fell asleep.

Cao Cao sighed slightly, and warned his attendants to serve Guo Jia well, and if there was any mistake, he would definitely kill him.Returning to the mansion, Cao Cao summoned his subordinates to discuss the matter.

"Since I sent troops to Hebei, the four prefectures were all leveled. Yuan Tan, Yuan Shang, Yuan Xi, and Gao Gan were appointed leaders. The Xiongnu and Xianbei surrendered. Only Wuhuan is in trouble. I intend to send troops to destroy Wuhuan next year." Cao Cao glanced around. He is full of energy and has a strong fighting spirit.

"Cao Zhang listens to the order, Huang Xu'er, I will make you the Northern Zhonglang General to inspect the Huns and Xianbei tribes in northern Xinjiang." It has always been Cao Zhang's wish to go to the outside of the Great Wall. After hearing the order, he was overjoyed and bowed to receive the order.

"Zhongde, you and Han Hao have to work hard to dig the Baigou to connect our north-south grain road. It must be completed before next spring. Gongda, you and Ren Jun should do a good job in raising food and grass, and make sure to ensure the supply of food and grass!"

"Xinpi, I want you to go to Xuzhou to meet Zhou Cang, and ask him to send troops to Wuhuan in May next year."

"Qianzhao, I heard that you are very familiar with Wuhuan, and you are especially friendly with King Wei. Can you persuade King Xiao to defect to me? I would like to make him Wuhuan Shanyu."

Qianzhao thought for a while and said: "Wuhuan is different from other tribes. Although it is divided into three tribes, they are very united and difficult to separate. Especially Wuhuan King Tadun is brave and courageous, and has great prestige. He is deeply supported by all tribes. It's hard to work."

Cao Cao raised his eyebrows, "Forget it. I heard that many Han people lived in Wuhuan and other tribes in Xianbei. I will make you the captain of Wuhuan and recruit these Han people to return to their hometowns. Those who return to their hometowns will not be blamed. They will be granted good land and tax-free for one year. Over the years, some escaped from the war, some were robbed, and some committed crimes to escape punishment. The population of Jizhou and Youzhou needed to be replenished, and Cao Cao set his mind on these people.

After Cao Cao made arrangements one by one, he picked up a letter and said: "I planned to send troops to Hebei once. Liu Biao and Liu Bei wanted to take the opportunity to attack Wancheng, but our army returned in time and they failed. Just after receiving the letter from Cao Ren, Liu Bei wanted to attack Wancheng again. I want to attack Xudu while my army is in Hebei."

All the generals showed anger, this Liu Bei couldn't stop for a while.Cao Cao pressed his hands empty, signaling to everyone not to talk too much. "Lv Kuang and Lu Xiang listen to the order. I know you two are fierce generals in Hebei. Dian Wei who killed Han Meng is dead, but Guan Yu who killed Yan Liang is still there. I wonder if you two have the courage to compete with him? "

Speaking of this, Erlu can't evade it. "My brother is willing to take the heads of Liu Bei and Guan Yu and present them to the lord."

"Okay, let you two lead your troops to Wancheng to follow Cao Ren's arrangement." Cao Cao issued a military order, "Cao Hong and Shi Huan, let you two lead the army to collect scattered soldiers from various places, or call them into the army or send them home to work in agriculture. , Anyone who disobeys is regarded as a rebel! Before next spring, there will be no more thieves and bandit soldiers in every state!"
