Great Wei Nengchen

"Five days ago, as soon as the news of Yuan Shu's proclaiming the emperor came, the old man sent someone to gallop to Chang'an with a 'tiger talisman'. With Xiao Lang's temperament as fast as the wind and fire, it is estimated that he had already set up his camp at this time and dispatched his troops. Going east, we will be able to come to Xudu in a few days to join us!"

"The prime minister has a fortune, I can't wait for what happens!" Everyone bowed in unison, full of admiration in their hearts. This is Cao Cao, who makes a quick decision when things happen. When other princes are still shocked and don't even close their jaws, he even mobilizes the army Well, with such a strong contrast, if he doesn't win, whoever wins!

"What good ideas do you have? But it's okay to say!" In addition to making decisions, brainstorming is also important!

"After all, Huainan is powerful. In addition to the prime minister personally leading the army to conquer, he should also issue an edict in the name of the emperor to all the princes, let them conquer together, especially Liu Biao of Jingzhou, and Liu Bei of Xuzhou. In the north, they are all relatives of the Han family, so they should do their best!" Cheng Yu, the counselor, is worthy of being an expert at making up swords, and immediately proposed a good solution.

The crusade is to protect the country of the Han Dynasty, and their surname Liu will naturally have to do their best, otherwise they will be unfilial to their ancestors and disloyal to the emperor, and letting them send troops to fight will not only lengthen Yuan Shu's front, but also consume the strength of both sides Whether Yuan Shu ate Er Liu, or Er Liu ate Yuan Shu, whoever ate it counted!

"High, it's really high!" Even Cao Cao couldn't help but give a thumbs up to praise, Cheng Yu's knife is black enough, wonderful enough, and even more ruthless enough!

"Everyone, the most taboo thing about a large army is to win the flag and disregard the family. The lord leads the army to conquer Huainan, and Xuchang is bound to be empty. If other princes take the opportunity to send troops to attack, what should we do? We have to guard against this!"

Xun Yu belongs to the prudent faction among counselors. He always considers the safety of his own group first in everything. This is in stark contrast to the "ghost" Guo Jia. One is a cold arrow that cannot be defended against, and the other is a thick and hard shield!

"Swipe!... Hiss!"

The frenzied atmosphere in the lobby suddenly calmed down. What Xun Yu said made sense. The other princes, especially Yuan Shao of Hebei, occupied the land of three states, had hundreds of thousands of troops under his command, and were notoriously ungrateful for profit. , Such a thing as a sneak attack on Xu Du, he can definitely do it!

"Wen Ruo's words are reasonable, and Yuan Shao in Hebei has to guard against them!" Cao Cao nodded. Sneak raid on the lair, and then snatch the little emperor away, then I really can't cry!

"Cao Ren, Cao Hong obey orders!"

"The end is here!"

"Let the two of you lead [-] troops to garrison important cities along the Yellow River, and keep an eye on Hebei's movement. If there is any trouble, immediately light the beacon fire and call the police, and the old man will return to the army to rescue!"

"promise!"

"In addition, isn't Yuan Shao famous for 'seeing small gains and forgetting his life', well, I will give him some benefits, and feed this white-eyed wolf!" While speaking, Cao Cao reached out his hand and took out a gold seal from his bosom. , Throwing it out without hesitation, "Give this thing to him, and let him command the military and political power of Ji, You, Qing, and the three states in the name of imperial decree. Should he be satisfied with such a fat skull?"

"The seal of the great general?" Cao Ang, who was kneeling by the side, exclaimed, and immediately stepped forward to pick up the golden seal and hugged it in his arms, "Father, think twice, this is what you have worked so hard to get it after hundreds of battles , just give it to Yuan Shao for nothing?"

Seeing the things thrown out, everyone was surprised. Cao Cao's current identity is the prime minister, general, and Marquis of Wuping, and this is the seal of the general, and it is also the status symbol of the "Military No. 1" of the Han Dynasty. It is extremely noble. But it's a treasure that never changes!

Besides, a man, a real man, claims to have three things not to give in to, and the first one is-we can't let people be rich and rich!

"Anyway, it's nothing more than a golden seal, so why not give it to Yuan Shao, the old man conquers the world, relying on strategy, the bravery of the soldiers, the hard work of the counselors, not this big seal!" Cao Cao looked up at the sky, throwing things , never take a second look!

Although Yuan Shao occupies the land of the three states, he has not been officially recognized by the court. As for his identity, he is still a Jizhou shepherd, and he was taken from it. There is no official certification. Now Cao Cao has seized his weakness. Don’t you want power? Well, the military and political power of the three states will be given to you. Don’t you want an official position? Well, the old man’s general seal will also be given to you. As a political transaction, you will feel embarrassed to come up with Xuchang’s idea again. ?

"The prime minister is very talented, I can't wait for it to happen!"

What is a true hero?This is, if you can get it, you can also give it up, the great general's golden seal, the glory of being under one person and above ten thousand people, is given away without blinking an eye, compared to those who hold the official seal and refuse to let go , Cao Cao's cleverness is not at 01:30!

"Hehe, you don't need to do this. If you exchange a golden seal for thousands of miles of land in Huainan, I won't lose it! Not at a loss!"

"During the old man's expedition, Cao Ang stayed in Xudu, assisted by Mr. Xun Yu and Xun You to handle all the affairs of the prime minister's mansion. If you have any doubts, please report them to the army as soon as possible!" After thinking for a while, Cao Cao continued to order, "The generals of all departments immediately mobilized their troops and stepped up their drills. As soon as Xiao Lang's army arrives, they will immediately go to Huainan to crusade!"

"promise!……"

399. Chapter 399 Family, you are welcome!

Cao Cao's expectations were not bad at all. If Xiao Yi's marching speed could be described in four words, it would be... as fast as wind and fire!

From Chang'an to Xudu, the journey is more than 1100 li long, during which not only have to cross the rugged Qinling Mountains, but also cross the two turbulent rivers of Luoshui and Yingshui. To complete such a long-distance march, most people need at least one It took many months, but Xiao Yi only took thirteen days!

Thirteen days later, a total of [-] troops appeared outside the city of Xuchang without missing a single one. The line stretched for more than ten miles, with banners unfurled and horns unceasingly. Eyes, exclaimed, "Could it be that they flew over?"

After this rapid march, Xiao Yi was very honored to get a new nickname~~One Night Thirteen~, oh, no, it's 'Xiao Shisanlang! '

There are various reasons for such an astonishing marching speed. First of all, after receiving Cao Cao's "Tiger Talisman" for dispatching troops, Xiao Yi did not delay at all, and immediately ordered Ma Liu to replace him in Chang'an and take charge of everything in Guanzhong Military and political power, and left 6 troops to defend various passes; although he and Ma Chao had a ten-year oath of non-aggression, in this troubled world, the most binding oath is the oath, which is worthless and can be torn up at any time Yes, it is still an oath, so I have to guard against it!

After arranging the stay-at-home matters, each battalion set out overnight. Xiao Yi's army had a lot of horses, like the Xuanjia cavalry that had just expanded to 1 people. On average, each soldier had three war horses. Riding in turns, one day and one night They can gallop for 300 miles. In this thousand-mile march, they actually walked at a slow pace. The rest of the battalions also did not lack mules and horses to travel, so the marching speed was naturally faster!

Secondly, the army didn't carry too much food and grass, Xiao Yi just asked each soldier to bring half a month's rations. With internal affairs geniuses like Xun Yu and Xun You, as long as they arrived at Xudu, wouldn't they be afraid that there would be no food and grass supplies? ?

Finally, the ground squirrels and the 'Digger Army' also contributed a lot. They usually dig treasures everywhere, and once they start a war, they are the best engineering troops. One channel to ensure the unimpeded movement of the army!

..................................................................................................................

Thirty miles away from Xudu, the eldest son Cao Ang waited on the side of the road on behalf of his father, and brought a large amount of cattle and sheep, fine wine, and rice noodles to reward the soldiers who came from a long way...

"The commander-in-chief has worked hard all the way, and the soldiers have worked hard!" Cao Ang did not have the calm and majestic demeanor of his father. He always had a kind smile on his face, like a spring breeze, which made it easy for people to have a good impression. !

"Thank you, Mr. Cao, I will be ashamed of you!" Face is something that is given to each other. When people go out of the city to greet them, Xiao Yi naturally returns respectfully. Moreover, he still has a certain affection for this Mr. Cao family, although he is not The master of creation, but if you have a decent family business, with Cao Ang's ability, you can still keep it!

After a lot of humility, the two finally rode back to the city surrounded by thousands of troops. Looking at the team of gold and iron horses, and at the majestic Xiao Yi, the eldest son Cao Ang couldn't help but feel emotional. "Such a peerless general can only be subdued by a talented father. As for myself, it's really hard to say..."

Thirty miles away, it will be there in an instant.

Xudu ~ South Gate, Qingluo umbrella cover, gongs and drums blaring, Prime Minister Cao Cao and a group of civil and military officials greeted him here in person. For a general who has returned from an expedition, it can be described as a great honor!

"The last general, Xiao Yi, pays homage to the Prime Minister!" With a distance of more than ten feet away from the city gate, Xiao Yi got off his horse and bowed. Behind him, the three brothers Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, and Cao Zhi knelt down and saluted. They are not only worshiping the prime minister, but also their father!

"Xiao Lang, hurry up and get rid of the courtesy, you are really a good old man!" Cao Cao opened his arms and greeted him with a big smile. It felt like he was looking at his favorite general and his son-in-law, and he was satisfied no matter what!

"See my lord father!" The Cao brothers knelt and took a few steps, their faces full of excitement!

"Come here, let me see if there is any change!" Father and son nature, Cao Cao pulled the three sons to his side, and looked at each of them carefully. Well, yes, I haven't seen you for half a year, and they all grew taller. The face is tanned, the arms have become thicker, and people are more energetic, especially in the eyes of the sons, all of them are full of wild light. It feels like three little wolf cubs who are screaming, healthy and lively , angry!

"It's good to be like a wolf. In troubled times, it's better to have children like wolves than to have children like sheep!" Cao Cao nodded in satisfaction. At the beginning, he gave Xiao Yi 4 horses and three young sons, but now he gave back eight hundred miles of Qin Chuan's children. Land, 10,000+ elite soldiers and strong generals, and three wolf-like sons, it seems that this treasure is the right one!

"Come, Xiao Lang, I will introduce you to the civil and military officials in the court!" When the army marched westward, the capital had not yet moved, and the court was not stable enough. It was purely a grassroots team. Finally, it has a large scale, and there are countless people from all over the country, including the old ministers of the Han Dynasty and the rising stars selected through the "recruitment order"!

"Meet the governor!"

"I have seen Hou Ye!"

"Ghost Face Xiao Lang" is well known to everyone, whether it is a veteran or a rookie, all of them bowed and saluted. Even Cao Cao valued the general so much, who would dare to neglect him!

While returning the gift, Xiao Yi sized up these people. After all, he will be ministers in the same palace in the future. It's good to have a good idea in his heart, but there are two of them who impressed him deeply!

One is the famous Kong Rong, the former prefect of Beihai County who lost all the land in Qingzhou. Drive, protect the emperor! '

But no matter what, this guy is also the No. 20 grandson of Confucius, a celebrity today, and quite influential in the gentry circle, so Cao Cao didn't think about the old evil, took him in, gave him a vain job, and hung him high. It's all over, but this kind of self-proclaimed guy, I'm afraid he won't be so honest~

The other one is a bit extraordinary, he is a military general, about 30 years old, eight feet tall, with a lion nose and wide mouth, short beard like a needle, wearing a big leaf brass battle armor, holding a Xuanhua axe, majestic stern!

"Hedong-Xu Huang has met General Xiao!" But all generals have a proud heart, and Xu Huang is no exception, so he just bowed his hands slightly, signed up, and didn't report his name. Be polite!

"How capable is a child with a yellow mouth who is less than 20 years old?" From Xu Huang's point of view, Xiao Yi's current achievements are all due to good luck. Coupled with Cao Cao's love and support, if he is in In the same position, such feats can also be created, or even better!

"Bold madman, how dare you be so rude to the commander-in-chief!" The head of the guard, Dian Wei, was like a fire, and he was about to rush over with a wave of the iron halberd in his hand. The wild boy, dare to be so rude!

"It doesn't matter!" Xiao Yi stopped Dian Wei, then took two steps forward with a smile and took Xu Huang's hand, and said kindly, "Good man, he is indeed the general that the Prime Minister likes, and he will be a general in the army in the future." The future is boundless!"

"Hmm... hum!"
