After Guo Jia arrived, he was quite satisfied with Cao Cao as the lord. A few days later, he recommended a person to Cao Cao. He was a descendant of Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty. He was born in Huainan Chengde. .Cao Cao immediately recruited Liu Ye to come.
Liu Ye also recommended two people to Cao Cao. They were from Changyi, Shanyang, Man Chong Man Boning, and Lu Qian and Lu Zike from Wucheng.Cao Cao also knew Man Chong and Lu Qian, so he immediately recruited them to serve under his command and serve in the army.
Man Chong and Lu Qian recommended another person to Cao Cao, Mao Jie and Mao Xiaoxian, from Chenliu Pingqiu.After Mao Jie came to conquer, Cao Cao made some investigations and selected Mao Jie as an officer in the army.
Later, two people led hundreds of soldiers to defect to Cao Cao. They were two brothers, Yu Jin Yu Wenze and Yu Qian Yu Tingyi.Cao Cao saw that Jin was proficient in bow and horse, had extraordinary martial arts, and was good at training soldiers, so he used Yu Jin as the army commander, and Yu Jin was quite wise and good at governing the country, so he took Yu Qian as his job.
Shi Xiu, who was originally one of the leaders of the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou, joined Cao Cao's forces after being captured alive, and was appointed by Cao Cao as the army commander under the personal persuasion of Niu Gao and Cao Cao.
Since then, Cao Cao has many civil servants and generals.Among them were Xun Yu, Xi Zhicai, Xun You, Cheng Yu, Guo Jia, Liu Ye, Man Chong, Lu Qian, Mao Jie, Yu Jin and others.The generals include Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Xiahou Dun, Xiahouyuan, Lejin, Li Dian, Li Dingguo, Pan Feng, Niu Gao, Bian Xiang, Yu Jin, Shi Xiu and others.The lineup is almost more gorgeous than the civil and military under Gongsun Xu's command.And Cao Cao's strength is also extremely strong, enough to be among the first echelon of princes in the world.
In the spring of the fourth year of Chuping, Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shu, Heishan Yellow Turban, Southern Huns and other forces one after another, while Xuzhou Tao Qian led his troops into Rencheng in the south of Yanzhou.However, Cao Cao led his troops to capture more than ten cities in Xuzhou in a row, forcing Tao Qian to retreat and return to Xuzhou.
Gongsun Xu also knew about Cao Cao's rapid development through Mingjing. After all, Gongsunxu had asked Mingjing to pay close attention to all Cao Cao's actions.But Gongsun Xu didn't expect Cao Cao to have such a great charm.Originally, none of the civil servants and military generals who defected to Cao Cao in history basically never fell.
But what made Gongsun Xu happy was that Dian Wei, who could be said to be the strongest under Cao Cao's command, had been recruited by him.But even without Dian Wei, Cao Cao's strength at this time is still very strong. Although Dian Wei is gone, there are more Pan Feng, Yu Jin, Shi Xiu, Niu Gao and others.
However, Gongsun Xu, a talented person under Cao Cao's command, originally hoped to recruit him, but in the past few years, I have not had much free time, and I don't know the origin of these people, so I have no way to find out.Although Mingjing still found out the origins of many people later, Gongsun Xu also tried to recruit them, but they were all unsuccessful.And Gongsun Xu didn't have time to recruit them himself, so he could only watch them fall into Cao Cao's arms one by one.
Whenever Cao Cao recruited a talent, Gongsun Xu always felt distressed for a while. After all, the stronger Cao Cao was, it was of no benefit to him.Moreover, these people have defected to Cao Cao, and with Cao Cao's charm, they are basically unlikely to rebel, so this means that these talents will leave themselves forever.
However, although Gongsun Xu said that Cao Cao has many talents under his command, Gongsun Xu is not afraid at all. Can you have as many as me?With the summoning system in hand, all talents can come from under their own hands.
Gongsun Xu believes that as long as he persists, his lineup will be better than Cao Cao's.
Moreover, the relationship between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao in this life is not very good, so the stronger Cao Cao is, the more he can restrain Yuan Shao.And what Gongsun Xu needs most now is time. As long as Gongsun Xu is given time, Gongsun Xu believes that there is no prince in this world who will be his opponent.Even Wei Wu Cao Cao is the same.
However, when the battles between the major princes in the north were in full swing, the south of the Han Dynasty was not peaceful.Sun Jian can be said to have benefited greatly from the birth of the summoning system. The forces under his command are much stronger than in history, and more importantly, Sun Jian is not dead yet.Under the leadership of Sun Jian, the Jiangdong tiger, the Sun family army quickly occupied Jiangdong, and even turned their target to the entire Yangzhou.
On the battlefield of dominating Jiangdong, Sun Ce, the son of Sun Jian, performed quite well, and Zhou Yu assisted him, so he was valued by all the civil servants and generals under Sun Jian's command.
After taking down Jiangdong, Sun Jian received the help of the four major families of Jiangdong, Gu, Lu, Zhu, and Zhang, and stabilized Jiangdong with the help of these four families.And the four major families also have many people working under Sun Jian's command, such as Gu Yong from Gu Jia, Lu Ji from the Lu family, Zhu Zhi from the Zhu family, and so on.
Sun Jian also used Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong who had gone south to escape the war, and soon stabilized Jiangdong.The most important thing is that the Chuanguo Yuxi is still in Sun Jian's hands, which makes Sun Jian extremely eager to improve his strength and expand his territory.After Dong Zhuo was killed, but the Son of Heaven was controlled by Li Jue and Guo Si, Sun Jian became more and more certain that he was the Son of Destiny.
And Jingzhou Liu Biao used his brother Liu Rengui to train the Jingzhou navy, as if he had some kind of plan.
In today's world, although the Han Dynasty has not been destroyed, there are already princes everywhere, and the princes still have their own ghosts. The situation in the world is becoming more and more difficult to see clearly.
Chapter 191 Cao Song
Cao Song, courtesy name Jugao, was born in Qiao County, Peiguo.He was the adopted son of Cao Teng, the great eunuch at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the father of Cao Cao, the Zhendong general who now controls Yanzhou.At the time of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, Cao Cao was once an official Taiwei, ranking first among the three princes.
Since Zhang Jiao launched the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Cao Song and his clan have been taking refuge in Langya County, Xuzhou, and Cao Song also knows what Cao Cao has been doing in recent years, so Cao Song never went to Cao Cao.
But this day was different. In Langya County where Cao Song and his clan lived in seclusion and refuge, Cao Song laughed while holding a letter, but in front of Cao Song was a man dressed as an official, looking at Cao Song respectfully. .
Cao Song was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, Prefect Ying, I will go back and pack my things, and go to Yanzhou with Prefect Ying."
The official's name was Ying Shao, who was the prefect of Mount Tai. This time he was sent by Cao Cao to Langya to pick up Cao Song. Ying Shao was very happy when he received this task. After all, Cao Song was Cao Cao's father, and Cao Cao is now an official General Juzhendong, his status is there, so Ying Shao still respects Cao Song as a prefect.
After all, if this task is done well and leaves a good impression in front of Cao Song, then his own image in front of Cao Cao will be better in the future, and maybe he will be reused by Cao Cao because of this.Cao Song is Cao Cao's father, and what he says in front of Cao Cao is more important than how well he behaves in front of Cao Cao.Ying Shao looked at Cao Song's leaving back and thought in his heart.
Ying Shao also attached great importance to this task. This time Ying Shao was ordered by Cao Cao to pick up Cao Song. Since Langya is now the site of Xuzhou governor Tao Qian, Ying Shao did not bring too many people with him. Not long ago, some unfriendly things happened between Cao Cao and Tao Qian, and the two sides fought a big battle.
Although Cao Cao and Tao Qian finally shook hands and made peace, there is no guarantee that Tao Qian will wait for an opportunity to retaliate. This is one of the reasons why Cao Cao wanted to take Cao Song to his side. Under Tao Qian's nose.It is too dangerous for Cao Song to lead people to live in seclusion here.
Although Cao Cao had great trust in Tao Qian's character, Cao Cao dared not be negligent in matters related to his father's life.And even if Tao Qian's character is trustworthy, the character of Tao Qian's subordinates is not trustworthy.No matter how strong Tao Qian is, it is impossible for all those under him to become good-natured.
That's why Cao Cao immediately sent Ying Shao to Langya to pick Cao Song to Yanzhou after a brief handshake with Tao Qian.
And so Ying Shao only brought more than a hundred people this time. In Ying Shao's mind, this mission is very simple, because Tao Qian just had a truce with Cao Cao not long ago, and he would not dare to launch a war with Cao Cao again in a short time. A war between.So Ying Shao was not worried about the safety of this mission.
After Cao Song returned to the mansion, he said to an old housekeeper beside him, "Go and call De'er." The old housekeeper responded and left, while Cao Song went to wait in his study.
The name of De'er in Cao Song's mouth is Cao De, the youngest son of Cao Song.Cao Song's sons, including Cao Cao, all left Cao Song's side after they became adults, and now Cao Song only has Cao De, the youngest son, by his side.In fact, Cao De also has a son named Cao Anmin, who is now playing beside Cao Cao.
After a while, Cao De came to Cao Song. Cao Song glanced at Cao De, then smiled and showed Cao Cao's letter to Cao De: "De'er, come and see, this is your elder brother's letter. "
After Cao De read Cao Cao's letter, there was a gleam of joy between his brows, but Cao De still suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, and said to Cao Song: "Father, Brother Meng De asked Prefect Ying to pick us up. I don't know what father is doing. Intend?"
"What's your plan?" Cao Song glanced at Cao De and said, "Of course I will leave for Yanzhou with Ying Taishou. Now Meng De lives in General Zhendong. We had a battle with Tao Qian, now we will only add trouble to Meng De if we stay here, and it just so happens that Prefect Ying is also here, so naturally we left Langya for Yanzhou together with Prefect Ying."
Cao De was taken aback when he heard the words, and said to Cao Song: "Father, what does he mean is that Tao Taishou may be harmful to us? This is impossible, Tao Taishou is a well-known good man."
Cao Song gave Cao De a cold look, and said, "It is said that Meng De captured several cities on Tao Qian's territory one after another not long ago. This kind of enmity cannot be resolved with a truce. And even if Tao Qian is unwilling to pursue However, Tao Qian's subordinates may not think so, so in any case, it is not suitable for us to stay in Langya now. It is best to go to Yanzhou immediately, and we will be safe in Mengde's territory.
Cao De was taken aback when he heard Cao Song's words, as if he hadn't fully digested Cao Song's words.
Cao Song glanced at Cao De but sighed. Although his youngest son was smart, he was still far behind Cao Cao. However, with Cao Cao as a big brother, Cao De should be safe in the future. life.
And thinking of Cao Cao, the eldest son, a smile flashed across Cao Song's face. Although he knew that Cao Cao would achieve great things, he did not expect to achieve the high position of Zhendong General so early.Thinking of this, Cao Song couldn't hide a smile on his face.
But when Cao Song saw Cao De who was still standing there, he scolded with a straight face, "Why are you still standing still, why don't you hurry up and pack your things."
Cao De only reacted after being scolded by Cao Song, and then hurried down.When Cao De was about to walk out of the study, he heard Cao Song's words: "First make arrangements for Prefect Ying and the others."
Cao De nodded quickly when he heard the words.
The families who took refuge with Cao Song were not many, but there were more than 40 of them. Including the servants and maidservants, there were more than 100 people in total. It would take a long time to clean up some things.And it was already afternoon, so I won't be leaving today, and even though Ying Shao is working under Cao Cao's command, he is also the prefect of a county, so he still needs to be respected.
After Cao De went down, Cao Song began to close his eyes in the study to take a nap, and even though Cao Song had already fallen asleep, he could still see a smile on the corner of Cao Song's mouth.
After Cao De arranged for Ying Shao and his party, he ordered the family members to pack up and prepare for departure.And these Cao clansmen who took refuge with Cao Song are basically relatives of Cao Song, so it is natural to follow Cao Song's lead.So after Cao De ordered to go down, the Cao clan quickly started to clean up.
In fact, the most important thing for Cao Song here is the wealth that Cao Song possesses. As a person who once achieved the position of the three princes, Cao Song naturally understands what Cao Cao lacks most now, and that is naturally wealth.Only with wealth can Cao Cao recruit soldiers and increase his own strength.So Cao Song decided to send Cao Cao all the wealth he had accumulated over the years, and a total of eighty or ninety cars were installed.
The next day, Ying Shao and the others woke up very early. After all, this time they came to pick up Cao Song, so Ying Shao didn't dare to make any mistakes.And not long after, Cao Song and a group of family members came out soon.
But at this time, there were more than 100 cars in front of everyone, all of which were the wealth accumulated by Cao Song over the years. Even Cao De only knew that Cao Song had a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, but he never Never thought there would be so many.
And Ying Shao looked at Cao Song with even more eager eyes. Those who have been Sangong are all fuel-efficient lamps, and even Cao Song is hiding it.
However, Ying Shao didn't have any other thoughts about these wealth. After all, Ying Shao is not a fool. Compared with these wealth, following Cao Cao is obviously more promising.
After Cao Song and others made preparations together, Ying Shao led hundreds of soldiers to guard the vehicles and headed towards Yanzhou.There are more than 100 people in Cao Song's family, including servants and maids, there are more than 100 people. Ying Shao brought more than [-] people this time.
A total of 300 people and more than 100 vehicles marched in the direction of Yanzhou.
Chapter 192 Tao Qian's Strange Behavior
Soon after Cao Song and his party left Langya, they arrived outside Langya city.Cao Song used to live in seclusion in a small county to the east of Langya, and now he had to pass through Langya City to go to Yanzhou.
However, because Tao Qian and Cao Cao had just fought not long ago, Cao Song gave up the idea of entering Langya City under Ying Shao's persuasion, just in case, and instead walked towards Yanzhou by bypassing Langya City.
But despite this, Cao Song and his party were still stopped by someone. A soldier stepped forward to stop Cao Song and his party and asked, "Who are you waiting for, and what goods are in the car?"
Seeing this, Ying Shao felt displeased, and ordered a guard beside him to go forward to solve it. After all, Ying Shao is also the prefect of a county. If he had to deal with such a matter, it would be a bit of a loss. As for Cao Song Or Cao De Na is more likely.If Cao Song or Cao De are allowed to solve this matter, doesn't that mean that Ying Shao has no ability?That's why Ying Shao wanted to solve this matter himself, so as not to leave a bad impression in front of Cao Song.
