Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 78 What's wrong with Xuzhou

"Being a teacher is not helping him. Being a teacher is just to let him do what he should do, things that are inconvenient and impossible to do as a teacher." Zhou Cang said a little lonely.

Wei Yan thought for a long time before he opened his mouth and said, "Master, do you mean borrowing strength from each other?"

Zhou Canghu was startled, was it because he had too many worries, looked forward and backward, and couldn't let go.Zhou Cang said again: "Part of the answer is correct. I will leave you another homework: There are three countries, among which A is the strongest, B is the second, and C is the weakest; A can destroy B and C, B can destroy C, and B and C can destroy A .In the melee of the Three Kingdoms, who will perish first? Who will be the last?"

Zhou Cang left the question to Wei Yan, and only led Dian Wei back to Xuzhou the next day. Instead of seeing Tao Qian, he went home first and called Gan Chi and Chen Zhong to ask him what happened after he left.

Gan Chi said: "My lord, you have come back. More than a month after you left, the imperial edict arrived, and Tao Cishi was promoted to Xuzhou Shepherd. But not long after, Zhao Yu and Zhizhong Wang Lang resigned and left. Master Tao appointed Mi Zhu as Xuzhou Biejia."

Chen Zhong said: "My lord, I have gone back to the Chen Mansion several times to find some old acquaintances to drink with. I heard that it is because Master Tao trusts Cao Bao and Cao Hong brothers very much, and he does not value Zhao Yu and Wang Lang. The two lords are very good. Their opinions were refuted, so they resigned. In addition, Ruo Rong didn't know whether it was his own idea or Master Tao's instruction. He built many pagodas in Guangling and Xiapi to house refugees. Thousands of people gathered in each place. There are fewer, but these people are not involved in production, and they are hidden dangers in the end. The adults have put forward a lot of opinions, but Master Tao just doesn’t listen.” Seeing Zhou Cang listening seriously, Chen Zhong became more energetic. "I also heard that in this edict, the imperial court also appointed Sir Chen as the general of the bandits, and Mr. Chen as the prefect of Guangling, but Mr. Tao did not announce that the prefect of Guangling is still Zhang Chao, the younger brother of Zhang Miao, the prefect of Chenliu. The son is very depressed."

Zhou Cang nodded. Chen Zhong did a good job in intelligence work. He has a bright future in this area and can be cultivated.When did Tao Qian start to believe in Buddhism? Using religion to restrain refugees is just a measure of rights and interests, not for production. If there are too many people, there will always be insufficient food. The more people there are, the more chaos will be caused. It seems that Tao Qian is overshadowed by the political achievements in front of him. Close your eyes.

Chen Zhong continued, "When Zang Ba and Sun Guan defeated the Yellow Turban Army, they were sent to Langya by Cao Hongyuan. They recruited troops in Langya and never returned to Xuzhou. Cao Bao and him are the ones to lead."

"I'm not here for a while, and you guys have done a good job. Chen Zhong needs to go out, you take my letter to Pengcheng to meet Zhang Shuang, and then go to Youzhou to meet Gongsun Zan, hand the letter to him, and listen to Zhang Shuang on the way." Command." Zhou Cang signaled them to step down, and he couldn't wait to reunite with Gan Mei, after half a year of marriage, it was really too much to get together, which really delayed the next generation.

The next day, Zhou Cang went to meet Tao Qian. Tao Qian's Xuzhou Governor's Mansion had become Xuzhou Shepherd's Mansion, which was even more magnificent.Only brothers Cao Bao and Cao Hong accompanied Tao Qian.

"Weiguo has worked hard all the way." Tao Qian was still very happy to be promoted to a higher level and take charge of a state's military and political power. "Weiguo has been here for so long, how is the situation in Beijing?"

"Returning to my lord, I dare not say it's hard work to be able to serve my lord. This trip to Luoyang was full of twists and turns. I went to the Shangshutai to deliver the seal, and waited for several days without hearing anything. Later, I found out that it was Lord Liu Yu, the shepherd of Youzhou, who rebelled against Zhang Chun. The seal has also arrived, and the ministers are discussing, and later I heard that the imperial court praised the two lords and promoted you to Xuzhou Mu and Liu Yu to Sikong. I think a certain lord in the court said something nice." Zhou Cang It's a nonsense, but the fact that Liu Yu is Da Sikong has not been spread, and it is unknown.

"Oh, Liu Zong is going back to Beijing." Tao Qian stroked his beard.Tao Qian is almost 60 years old now, and his beard has turned white.

"I thought it might be that General Yuan Shu said something nice, so he wanted to go to General Yuan Shu's mansion, but he didn't expect that Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu had already left Beijing in a day. After careful inquiry, I found out that it was because they opposed Taiwei Dong Zhuo. Because of this, Emperor escaped from Luoyang, and I was really shocked at the time." Zhou Cang continued to make up. "In Beijing, Master Zhang Wen is quite familiar, so I wanted to visit Master Zhang Wen again, but when I arrived at Master Zhang's mansion, I met Lu Bu who was searching the mansion and kidnapped Master Zhang. The Zhang family was very miserable. The adults were killed, the family property was fired, and the family members were enslaved."

"Alas", Tao Qian sighed, not sure whether it was Yuan Shu or Zhang Wen, or that he had no reliance in Beijing.

"I was almost captured by the soldiers. Fortunately, when I was in Hanoi with my lord, I knew Lu Bu, so I didn't make things difficult for me. Lu Bu sent me to General Niu Fu. General Niu entertained me, and talked about the past in Xiliang, and said: Your Excellency has made many achievements in Xiliang, but no one remembers it. Now that the Taiwei is in charge, he wants to speak well in front of the Taiwei. I also left Luoyang and returned to Xuzhou. I didn’t want to pass by Zhongmou and get sick, so I was delayed. A lot of time." Zhou Cang finally came back. "When I arrived in Zhongmu, I heard that Dong Zhuo had made King Chenliu the emperor. Cao Cao failed to assassinate Dong Zhuo, and Luoyang City was in chaos. I was lucky enough to leave Luoyang."

"Weiguo got this serious illness because he was exhausted and frightened. Weiguo should go back and rest for a few more days," Tao Qian said.

"Wei Guo knows a lot of people in Beijing." Cao Hong suddenly asked, "Does Wei Guo know why the imperial court appointed you General of Bandits?"

Zhou Cang thought in his heart, he really jumped out. Didn't he give you a job? "Lord Cao, I'm not very clear about this, but I think it may be that General Niu Fu praised Master Tao in front of the Taiwei and also mentioned me by the way. Taiwei Dong remembered that I also stayed in Xiliang with the Lord, so Aiwu and Wu Bar."

"Well, does Wei Guo know why Chen Deng and Chen Yuanlong were also awarded the prefect of Guangling?" Cao Hong continued to ask.

"I know a thing or two about this. I heard that the imperial court appointed many officials' children and well-educated people, such as Cai Yong as a servant, Kong Rong as the prefect of Beihai, etc., and Yang Biao, the son of Yang Ci. After Taiwei Chen Qiu, maybe someone will recommend it." Zhou Cang's answer was impeccable, Chen Deng's background is deep, can you Cao Hong still climb?

"So that's how it is." Cao Hong rolled his eyes, and suddenly moved to Tao Qian's side and muttered in a low voice.Tao Qian pondered for a while, and said: "Wei Guo is now the general of the imperial court, and it is inconvenient to be stationed in the city. Now the Yellow Turban Army in Xuzhou is basically calmed down, but the remnants of Yanzhou and Yuzhou are still rampant. You can lead your troops to Pengcheng Stationed here, so as to prevent the Yellow Turbans from attacking Xuzhou."

"Subordinates obey." Zhou Cang replied.Well, you Cao Hong, what kind of ecstasy soup did you pour into Tao Qian?In order to control the power in his hands and drive everyone out of Xuzhou, is it true that Tao Qian is really old and starts to listen and believe?
