Extraordinary daily life starting from evil spirits

And now that Zhiyuan is getting stronger and stronger, Cao Cao has to think for himself, at least the two sides are still cooperating, so Cao Cao must make it clear.

Zhi Yuan made a helpless expression, and then she said to Cao Cao, "Is the land the dowry when I marry?"

"The surname of that land is Tang. Without me, there is brother Tang Tian. And...do you think I am the kind of woman who can obey the other party just by marrying?"

"Maybe in the future... I can swallow up the power of the other party's family."

Speaking of this, Zhiyuan suddenly sighed: "If one day, the Han Dynasty still has a chance to revive, how will Mengde choose?"

Cao Cao glanced at the kite. To be honest, it was already like this. Even a fool would know that the Han Dynasty would never prosper again.

So Cao Cao immediately thought: "Could it be that Zhiyuan is going to join me in welcoming Emperor Han back?"

Cao Cao fell into deep thought. To be honest, he didn't think of this situation in his heart, but he was not optimistic about the current emperor, after all, he was just a child.

"If there is such a day, I will go to the Western Regions... although I don't think such a day will come." Cao Cao sighed.

The two of them talked it over, but it didn't mean that Cao Cao agreed with Zhi Yuan to control half of Xuzhou.Finally Zhiyuan sighed: "How about we fight? Whoever wins can occupy more cities."

Cao Cao tilted his head, and then looked at Zhiyuan: "Fight? Tao Qian hasn't been caught yet, so let's start a fight?"

Zhiyuan chuckled: "Of course not, the fight I mentioned can be called a drill."

"For example, there is a dispute between us, the place... The kite has drawn several areas on the map, and these areas are places where two people cannot talk."

"We will take the cities in these places as bets, adopt a ratio of one for defense and two for offense, and attack each other with wooden knives and wooden guns. See which side wins, and the city will be its own."

"If it is some plain area, you can also let the soldiers of both sides attack each other with wooden weapons. The same strength depends on the general's command and the overall quality of the soldiers."

"In this way, firstly, there is not much danger, and secondly, it can also let the people under him feel the atmosphere of war, and it can be regarded as training each other."

"Of course, we must wait until Tao Qian is killed, and I will not participate in this matter, so let our brother Mu Xuande of Xuzhou fight against you, Meng De..."

Zhiyuan just ignored it and pushed Liu Bei out completely.And Liu Bei is also ambitious now, he cupped his hands to Cao Cao and said, "Brother Mengde...we have also been friends for a long time."

"But I think the common people will be better under my governance, so I offended." After Liu Bei finished speaking, he pointed on the map, and the location he pointed was Xiapi City.

Okay... Zhi Yuan originally planned to give Xiapi County to Cao Cao, but Liu Bei's ambitions were even greater.The kite seemed to see the sparks that erupted in the air from the eyes of the two people.

Cao Cao nodded: "Interesting, practice, right... OK!"

He looked at his subordinates: "The other party obviously looks down on you. If anyone is ashamed at that time, he will go back to the farm and bring out the soldiers after training."

A group of generals also burst into laughter, no matter which direction Cao Cao was in or Liu Bei's side, there were many capable generals under his command.

Friendship is all done by typing, and both parties naturally want to test each other's quality.

Of course, there is still the most important goal now, and that is to capture Xiapi.

Chapter 280: Don't waste time

Liu Bei was willing to go all out, and when he returned, he would directly let Guan Yu lead [-] infantry, and go first to take Guangling down.

As for who owns the drills in the future, Liu Bei doesn't care about it, and he will feel at ease when he gets it in his hands.

Of course, going directly south from Donghai County into Guangling, even if Cao Cao jumped in anger, it would be useless.So I can only watch Liu Bei's Xuzhou Mu, and it will be implemented bit by bit.

At present, there is only one last thing left, and that is to kill Tao Qian.Just over a month after Pengcheng's rectification, the Cao-Tang Allied Forces went south again to attack Xiapi.

Cao Cao took Liangcheng and Ciwu first, and Liu Bei also asked Zhao Yun to take down Quyang in the east.

Then the two sides were divided all the way, and Cao Cao found that his army really couldn't beat Liu Bei's men.So he could only put all his anger on Tao Qian, and personally led 2 people, as well as [-] people from Liu Bei and Zhi Yuan, to surround Xiapi City.

At this time, Tao Qian was also in despair.Because now in the whole of Xuzhou, only Xiapi is still under his control.Tao Qian never expected that Tang Zhiyuan would attack him too, and he was merciless.

There's no way... You said that in Qingzhou, apart from bullying you, Tao Qian, Zhiyuan has no place to develop.And get rid of Tao Qian... Zhi Yuan also wanted to go south to Yangzhou to occupy more land.

The south of Guangling is Jianye, which is also a densely populated place.In addition, the Shanyue people, aboriginal people in the south, are also a target that Zhiyuan wants to integrate.After all, if economic construction is carried out with slaves, it will save money...

Hmm... Zhiyuan is so shameless.

Tao Qian's age is not too young, probably around sixty.Recently being chased by Cao Cao and running around made Tao Qian's health worse and worse.But he is not reconciled...Cao Cao is no more than the eunuch, and Tang Zhiyuan has been like a savage since she was a child.

This kind of person can actually bully Tao Qian, how could he swallow this breath.So Tao Qian cheered up and let his son support him to the top of the city.

When Cao Cao saw Tao Qian approaching, he drove his horse directly to the city wall, and then yelled at Tao Qian.Cao Cao must avenge the murder of his father. According to his meaning, Tao Qian, wash your neck and wait, maybe I can give you a happy one when I am happy.

Zhi Yuan followed Cao Cao, and after a while, she saw another person beside Liu Bei.A young man who listened to Futai had a good conversation with Liu Bei.

Although this young man is rich and handsome, his riding posture is very skillful.And the appearance gave people a sense of stability, easygoing and comfort, which made Zhiyuan think of a person involuntarily.

Zhiyuan rode over on horseback, and Liu Bei immediately said to Zhiyuan, "I was maintaining law and order in Pengcheng, and I got to know the biggest rice merchant in Xuzhou. From now on, we can directly buy food for our army from him."

"Mizhu Mizizhong..."

"This is Princess Xiangping, Tang Zhiyuan, younger sister of Tang Tian, ​​governor of Qingzhou." Liu Bei introduced the two of them.

Zhi Yuan had to admit that Liu Bei's protagonist was powerful.The Mo family can be regarded as a typical example of a rare commodity to live in. They supported Liu Bei when they were in Xuzhou, until finally Liu Bei became the first master.

At the beginning of Liu Bei's transshipment at the end of the Han Dynasty, he got the support of the Mi family.After gaining power, Liu Bei gave Mizhu the highest treatment, General Anhan... His status was higher than Zhuge Liang.

Although Mi Zhu also knew some simple bowing and horse skills, he had never fought a war in his life.But through Mi Zhu's support for Liu Bei, we know that he is definitely one of the most successful businessmen in the late Han Dynasty.

Paper kites are also more favorable to businessmen.Although in the late Han Dynasty, merchants were also linked to the gentry, and there were no completely independent merchants.

After all, any circulation of goods needs merchants, and Zhiyuan also intends to improve the status of merchants in its own territory.

But if the status of businessmen can be improved, anyway, China can quickly enter the capitalist society, instead of sprouting for more than 1000 years, and finally still in the budding state.

Although there are no profiteers and no businessmen, scholars, peasants, businessmen and merchants are at the bottom, and the status of merchants from ancient times to Ming and Qing Dynasties was very low. Even China has almost no traditional merchants, so it is impossible to enter capitalism.

Chinese merchants are either the gentry or the royal family... Their class is not the merchant class, so even if they do business, they will not consider the issue of social progress.

Moreover, there are so many Chinese, and there are too many slaves controlled by the gentry, how can it be possible to liberate productive forces to adapt to the industrial revolution?In addition, Confucianism is bound to the Chinese regime later, so the germination of capitalism in China can only be the germination.

The humiliation of modern China definitely did not happen overnight.It is the result of the rulers' continuous revision and improvement for the stability of the regime.Many people think that it is Man Qing's fault, but in my opinion, the source of the disaster is Song.

Well... that's a long way off, but Mi Zhu must make friends with each other.Because of their family's food, it is not a problem to feed the entire Qingzhou Army.Zhiyuan couldn't always rely on Yuan Shu, if Yuan Shu committed suicide that day, would Zhiyuan survive?

"After defeating Tao Qian, we are discussing business properly. If possible, I can tell Brother Mi the recipe of some drinks, and then just sit and wait for the profit." Mi Zhu's eyes lit up as soon as Zhi Yuan finished speaking. .

Then Zhiyuan said to Liu Bei: "Here in Xuzhou, there are outstanding people... There are only a lot more talents than in Qingzhou."

"When Tao Qian was in power, he also made friends with a lot of gentry. When Brother Xuande takes control of this place, he must also make good contact with them to see if he can use it for himself."

Liu Bei nodded, and naturally agreed with Zhi Yuan's words.

Then Zhiyuan came to Cao Cao's side on horseback. Cao Cao scolded Tao Qian for a long time, and Tao Qian almost fainted from the anger.They were all beaten like this, and Tao Qian refused to admit that he killed Cao Cao's father.

Suddenly Tao Qian saw Zhiyuan, and immediately shouted to Zhiyuan: "Princess, save me...for the sake of fighting against Dong together, let Cao Mengde retreat."

"I don't want Xuzhou Mu anymore, so I beg the princess to save my life..."

Zhi Yuan looked at the old man, and could only sigh inwardly.After all, you did the previous thing yourself. If I hadn’t come in time, Cao Cao would have committed a massacre. Could it be that you, Tao Qian, were not responsible for the deaths of so many people in Xuzhou?

Zhiyuan cupped her hands at Tao Qian: "It's this time, Taozhou Mu still doesn't admit that he killed Cao Song?"

"How can I persuade? The hatred of killing one's father is irreconcilable. I have already persuaded Brother Meng De not to slaughter civilians. Can I persuade Meng De not to avenge his father?"

"Taozhou Mu... Now that the matter has come to an end, I would like to advise you. Take your own life and apologize... Maybe Meng De can be magnanimous and let your family off, otherwise I don't need to say anything about the outcome."

Tao Qian almost fainted when Zhiyuan said this, he pointed at Zhiyuan and Cao Cao: "You just want to occupy my land in Xuzhou, so what if I killed Cao Song, let alone say I didn't kill it?"

"Rebellious ministers and thieves don't want to restore the Han Dynasty, and they are fighting against me in Xuzhou. I curse you will never be in peace!"

Zhiyuan sighed, then waved to the back, and a huge siege crash vehicle was pushed out. "Hurry up... don't waste time."

Chapter 280 Three: Completed Division

Zhiyuan said to attack the city, then attack the city.Now is not the time to discuss who is right and who is wrong, because this is already the case, Tao Qian must die.If he doesn't kill Cao Cao, he won't let it go, and more civilians will die that way.

Besides, Tao Qian was not clean in the first place, and there was really nothing to say in this troubled world.Zhiyuan also just wanted to take this opportunity to see if the heavy siege vehicle she made would work.

The siege vehicle can reach four or five meters, which directly puts a lot of pressure on Xiapi City.And Tao Qian also knew now that Cao Cao and Tang Zhiyuan absolutely reached a consensus, that is, he must die.

In the original history, or in the novel, Tao Qian could at any rate seek help from Qingzhou and other parties through the channel in Langya.But now Qingzhou belongs to Tang Zhiyuan, and Tao Qian can't wait for any reinforcements.

"Block that big guy!" Tao Qian shouted to one of his generals.

This general's name is Cao Bao, and of course he has nothing to do with Cao Cao's family.Cao Bao's personality is almost the same, except for the local Tao Qian, he does not support any foreign powers and princes.

So for Cao Cao's attack, the Cao Bao family can be regarded as fully helping Tao Qian to resist.He nodded to Tao Qian, and then the celebrity attacked the siege engine with a bow and arrow and some stones.

But how could bows, arrows and stones easily destroy the siege engine, and the siege engine arrived in front of the gate of Xiapi in a slow time.Then dozens of people between the siege vehicles tried their best to push the huge bumper.

With the sound of a huge impact, the gate of Xiapi City was directly shaken.Nearly a hundred of Tao Qian's soldiers who were carrying the city gate behind Xiapi City all took a few steps back.

And the bolt blocking the gate of Xiapi City has been broken from the middle, and the gate of Xiapi City, which looks very strong, is about to be knocked open after only one blow.

Tao Qian turned pale with fright, because he had nowhere to escape.Xiapi has been completely surrounded by the coalition forces, even if Tao Qian escapes from Xiapi, where else can he go.He tremblingly walked towards his mansion in Xiapi, when his son came to help him, but Tao Qian threw him away.

"I'm afraid the gate of the city will be breached in a while. You should immediately lead the soldiers and your men to leave through other gates, and keep some incense for our Tao family. I just looked at the city wall, and the enemy soldiers in the northwest are Minimal."

Tao Qian shook his body, and almost didn't fall.He really didn't expect that he was defeated like this, and that guy Cao Cao was so cruel.

But as a well-known person, how could Tao Qian wait for the city to break and be humiliated by Cao Cao?He returned to his mansion, and then directly set the surrounding area on fire.

And at the same time, Zhiyuan's siege engine had easily knocked open the city gate.Then the army poured into Xiapi, and the Xuzhou army was already powerless to resist.

At this time, Cao Bao also ran to the north.He caught up with Tao Qian's son who was about to lead thousands of people away, and said to them, "Tao Qian must be dead, and I plan to compromise with Cao Cao and find a way to rebel in the future."

"After all, I'm not interested in those uneducated barbarians, but I will kill them at special times."

"So I need the heads of the two of you, because only in this way will Cao Cao let me go, Cao Bao, so I'm sorry for the two sons. If there is a chance in the future, I will personally avenge the two sons and kill Cao Cao and Tang Zhiyuan. die!"

After Cao Bao said this, he waved his hand directly... His personal soldiers went over and killed Tao Qian's two sons.

Now that Tao Qian is finished, no one will let their family go.Therefore, after Cao Bao killed the opponent, he directly surrendered to Cao Cao's subordinates.

At this time, Cao Cao had already brought people to the burning Tao Qian mansion. "Live to see people, die to see corpses!" Cao Cao didn't care whether Tao Qian committed suicide or not.

After all, even if Tao Qian died, Cao Cao would definitely crush him.It took a whole day to find a charred corpse in Tao Qian's mansion. Judging from some leftovers, this was probably Tao Qian.

So Cao Cao took the whip himself and hung up Tao Qian's body to whip him.Then he cut off Tao Qian's head, his two sons, and Tao Qian's family members captured by Cao Cao in front, and killed all the spirits in heaven who worshiped his father.

Zhi Yuan didn't intend to stop her either. After all, if her father Tang Zhen was killed, even if the opponent was the Emperor Zhi Yuan, she would still be crushed, so Cao Cao shouldn't be stopped at this time.

Because after Cao Cao vented, his emotions could be stabilized.But a rational Cao Cao is the most dangerous.

After taking down Xiapi, it is the issue of the distribution of interests between Cao Cao and Liu Bei.Zhiyuan didn't intend to worry about this, she left Xuzhou after finishing some things.

Zhi Yuan planned to go to Yuzhou, the first was to pick up Pei Yuanshao and everyone from Cai, and the second was to meet Yuan Shu.

Although Zhi Yuan still has no plans to marry Yuan Shu, the other party has helped him a lot after all.Now Qingzhou is barely self-sufficient in food, so Zhi Yuan plans to return some benefits to Yuan Shu himself.

Zhiyuan didn't want to owe him too much, because if she turned against the other party in the future, Zhiyuan was afraid that she wouldn't be able to do it.After all, the Yuan family is the leader of the gentry, and the relationship between Zhi Yuan and the gentry will sooner or later conflict.

Of course... If Yuan Shu proclaims himself emperor, he will no longer be a gentry, and class opposition will arise.But if Yuan Shu became emperor, wouldn't he die faster?

Zhiyuan didn't know how to deal with this guy, could it be that she really married him?But if she really does strike in the future, Zhiyuan doesn't know if she can kill her.

In any case, Zhiyuan entered Yuzhou from Xuzhou, and Pei Yuanshao's team, which came out from Chang'an Luoyang on the west side, was about to enter this area.

After Zhiyuan left Xuzhou, Liu Bei and Cao Cao followed Zhiyuan's method for countless drills, and they decided on one thing, that is, a team can only play once.

It can be relatively fair to avoid the situation where the elites bully each other.It's just that the quality of Liu Bei's army is really much higher than that of Cao Cao's men.

Although it was said to be an exercise, they gradually became angry. The two sides fought in various places in Xuzhou for half a year, and finally formed a strangely shaped territory.

The most important thing is that Donghai County was acquired by Cao Cao. Although Langya belongs to Liu Bei, it has become an enclave...

And Guangling and Xiapi were all obtained by Liu Bei, plus Langya, half of Pengcheng County, and a small part of Donghai County.Liu Bei's Xuzhou Mu can be regarded as having the control area of ​​almost four counties, that is, Langya has become an enclave.

But after all, Langya is very close to Zhiyuan, so he can control it.Generally speaking, Liu Bei still made money. The essence of Xuzhou was basically occupied by Liu Bei, while Cao Cao only won about three counties.

Liu Bei: Langya, Guangling, Xiapi, more than half of Pengcheng, and less than half of Donghai County.

Cao Cao: Dongguan County, Lu Guo County, most of Donghai County, and half of Pengcheng County.

The interests of both parties in Xuzhou have been temporarily assigned.

Chapter 280 Four: Sending Benefits

Zhi Yuan led the army to Yuzhou, and found that Yuan Shu was not here.

Hmm... Yuan Shu and Sun Jian are still fighting Liu Biao.The main location of the battle was Jiangxia County.Of course, not only Jiangxia, but also a large part of Nanyang County.
