There were not many people in the tent, only Prime Minister Cao Cao, counselors Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, and Governor Xiao Yi were discussing, while the three brothers Cao Pi were listening quietly as usual, but they were not qualified to speak.

It was the counselors Guo Jia and Cheng Yu who had a heated argument, and the target of their argument was Liu Bei, who had just been 'invited' during the day, to kill?do not kill?

"It must be killed. Liu Xuande is a hero in the world. He has great ambitions, good plans, and unfathomable temperament. If such people stay, they will inevitably cause countless troubles in the future, which will be detrimental to the prime minister's career. It is better to start early to avoid future troubles! "

Cheng Yu insisted on killing him. Now this 'Ah Fu with Big Ears' is like a goldfish trapped in a fish tank, he can be strangled to death with his hand. If he must transform into a dragon, no one can restrain him anymore!

"It must not be done. Liu Bei is a clan member of the Han Dynasty and has a reputation for benevolence and righteousness. If he is killed rashly, it will not be good for the prime minister's prestige. In the future, who will dare to fight against our coalition forces? It is not a wise move to come to Xuchang to join the service, in order to get rid of the tigers in the mountains and lose the pack of wolves in the north!"

Guo Jia firmly opposed the killing of Liu Bei, mainly because of his identity and reputation. After all, "Big Ear Fu" was a clan member of the Han Dynasty, and Cao Cao was ordering the world in the name of maintaining the Han Dynasty. At this time, he killed a surname Liu's, I'm afraid people in the world will criticize it?

Cao Cao was sitting in the middle, but he was in a dilemma. The two counselors had opposite opinions, and each had their own reasons. They were all planning for the great cause of his Cao family. How should he choose?

"If the prime minister is worried that he will be charged with killing the Han clan's relatives, I will take care of this matter. If there is any infamy, the subordinates will bear it!" Cheng Yu's eyes were slightly red, and he took off his sword, Put it in front of you, and prepare to get rid of Liu Bei at all costs!

"Zhongde has a heart!" Cao Cao kindly called Cheng Yu's name, and patted him on the shoulder to show his approval. No matter whether his opinion is correct or not, if he dares to take the blame, he is a rare loyal minister.

"In order to kill Liu Bei, and make Zhongde into an embarrassing situation, this matter must not be done!" Guo Jia was also moved by this good friend's persistence, so he even disapproved of killing Liu Bei. It's not easy to memorize, it may be a lifetime, or it may be several lifetimes!

"Xiao Lang, you came up with the plan, and you invited the people, whether to kill or keep, what decision do you have?" After turning around, Cao Cao finally pushed the instigator out.

"Difficult! Difficult! ... Difficult!"

Xiao Yi had squatted on the ground and pulled out his hair for a long time, but he couldn't make a decision anyway. The historical knowledge of later generations told him that for the future development of the Caoying Group, he should immediately take a sword to chop off Liu Bei's head and dismember it. , then chopped into stuffing, ground into foam, and burned to ashes, this is the safest and most reassuring thing!

But he really can't do that, to kill Liu Bei, he has to kill Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, otherwise he will live in fear of being revenged forever, but when he thinks of killing three "Qianqiu Zhongyi" Xiao Yi's heart resisted from the inside out. The Chinese people of later generations, who didn't grow up in the story of "Taoyuan Three Knots", even those local hooligans and young and Dangerous boys knew that Guan Er Lord Shangxiang, to be a human being should speak the word 'righteousness'.

If this sword falls today, to put it bluntly, a large part of the spiritual world of the Chinese people will collapse in the future. In order to kill one person and destroy the loyalty of future generations, the gain outweighs the loss!

"Hey..., Prime Minister, forgive me. It's really difficult to decide whether to kill or to stay. Please decide for yourself!" Xiao Yi simply pretended to be an ostrich and chose to abstain. Life and death, it all depends on God's will!

"Hehe, I never imagined that Xiao Lang, who is decisive in killing, would also encounter difficulties!" Seeing Xiao Yi's face wrinkled, Cao Cao found it very interesting. This should be the appearance of a 20-year-old youth, and he is more like a flesh-and-blood man people!

The three brothers Cao Pi who were sitting quietly at the side also stared at each other. Xiao Yi has always been their idol, no matter whether he is literary or martial arts, they are all admired. I didn't expect that idols also have troubles. Liu Bei is really so hard to kill. ?

After a debate, Cheng Yu decided to kill, Guo Jia wanted to stay, and Xiao Yi abstained. In the end, the final decision-making power still fell into Cao Cao's hands. It was up to him to decide whether to kill or not!

Twisting his long beard, Cao Cao also pondered. This matter is really difficult, but as long as you put your heart into it, there will be countermeasures for even the most difficult things. , No need, a salary, a vain job, just support it!"

"Your Prime Minister is wise!" The other three nodded at the same time, but this was a good idea, hanging high and isolated from the world, the hero would be useless!

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………

Cao Cao decided this way and did the same, but for some reason, he actually handed over the heavy responsibility of guarding Brother Liu Bei to Xiao Yi, so he added another tent next to the big tent of the Xuanjia Army-Zhongjun , the two sides live next to each other, it is difficult not to see each other!

"The governor is well!"

"General Zuo is well!"

"Hi Xiao Lang!"

"Hello, Mr. Xuande!"

No matter how contradictory two people are, if they get together every day, they will become familiar. This can be felt from the changes in the names of the two parties. What's more, the two people are only politically opposed and have no personal grudges. Sometimes they are happy. I can also make jokes, one is 'eating dead flesh' and the other is 'selling straw sandals'...

Xiao Yi quickly adapted to his job as a 'jail guard', and he didn't abuse the prisoners. In daily life, Brother Liu Bei would eat whatever he ate, and all kinds of clothes and supplies were in duplicate. No offense.

In his spare time, he would take the initiative to go to Liu Bei's tent, drink, chat, and exchange his insights on the world and life. The two of them, one is the hero of the world, and the other has more than 2000 years of common sense. They are also very speculative, often clapping their hands to celebrate the same political views, and sometimes arguing for different opinions, blushing and thick-necked, like a pair of fighting cocks; The ancients, sigh sadly!

Friendship, in such exchanges, was established bit by bit!

Over time, even Guan Yu and Zhang Fei gradually relaxed their vigilance. For example, they don't have to take a sip of the fine wine Xiao Yi sent before giving it to their elder brother. When Liu Bei and Xiao Yi chatted, they would not hold weapons Stay on the sidelines, but sit down together, listen, learn, and comprehend!

"Xiao Lang, come and have a competition, bet on two jars of good wine!"

After the two sides got acquainted with each other, they developed another hobby, martial arts competitions, especially Zhang Fei, who liked to be active but not quiet, and would always come to fight for dozens of rounds, especially after discovering that there was a lot of fine wine in Xiao Yi's tent. Just work harder!

"Okay, I'm just free today, so I'll go for dozens of rounds with the three generals to loosen up my muscles and bones!" With martial arts practiced to Xiao Yi's level, it's very difficult to find an evenly matched opponent. Well, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are enemies of ten thousand people!

"go!"

"go!"

Zhang Fei is a rare master. With a flick of the eight-foot-long snake spear in his hand, he flew up and down, and within two feet, he was firmly locked. His marksmanship combines hardness and softness. Mount Tai is pressing down on the top, and when he is dexterous, it is like a poisonous snake coming out of its hole, making it hard to guard against.

Xiao Yi's boring method has become more and more mature after several years of training on the battlefield. When the phoenix-winged gold-plated boring is deployed, it is like a soaring Kunpeng, which hits three thousand miles in water and soars upwards. Ninety thousand miles, grand and bold, free and unrestrained, invisible, and ubiquitous, taking people's lives, only in the midst of ecstasy!

Thirty rounds, forty rounds, fifty rounds...

A hundred rounds passed in a blink of an eye, and the winner was still in the balance. At this point in the battle, the two stopped their moves at the same time, and laughed at each other!

"Bring the wine!" Said it was a bet on good wine, but in fact Xiao Yi made the bet every time, anyway, he had a special wine making workshop in the army, so he could drink whatever he wanted.

"drink!"

"Done!"

Not only Xiao Yi and Zhang Fei, but also Liu Bei and Guan Yu, who were watching from the sidelines, came over and drank together!

Maybe tomorrow we will meet each other on the battlefield, and we will never die, but today, we are still friends, we are friends, we should drink together!

431. Chapter 431 Do you know Xiao Lang?

The whip strikes the golden pedal, and the people play the triumphant song!

A victorious march always makes people feel happy. In this Huainan battle, Cao Jun can be said to have gained both fame and fortune. Those soldiers who have been rewarded for their meritorious service can't wait to fly back with their wings and share their joy with their families.

Not all of the 17 troops returned to Xuchang. The soldiers conscripted from various counties returned to their homeland, and at the same time they took away cartloads of rewards. With these things, I believe they can have a good year. In addition, Cao Cao also issued a decree in his capacity as the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, all soldiers who went to war, their families would be exempted from taxes, money and food for one year as a reward.

When the order was passed down, all the soldiers of the three armies rejoiced. The slogan of "Prime Minister Wan Sheng" was earth-shattering, especially those ordinary soldiers. Many people were moved and cried to the ground. This is the good day only in the dream!

For such a huge victory, the imperial court had to express it. There was an endless stream of envoys who came to pass orders and rewards. One was more pompous than the other, and the style was higher than the other. "Pillars of the country, role models of courtiers, Yi Yin and Huo Guang are reborn...", Countless high hats have been buckled on Cao Cao's head.

Especially the famous saying that Xiao Yi once said, "If a country does not have Prime Minister Cao for a day, I don't know how many people will be emperors and how many people will be kings!"

With the footsteps of 10,000+ soldiers, it quickly spread throughout the three prefectures of Henan, Yan, and Si. Everyone from the eighty-year-old old man to the three-year-old child knew about it, and finally the news spread to the world In the ears of the princes, in the ears of the princes of the Manchu Dynasty, in the ears of the little emperor!

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is just a big scene directed and acted by Cao Cao himself. Even the envoys are arranged by himself. They sneak out of the camp at night and come back with the imperial decree during the day.

The purpose of doing this is to transform the Battle of Huainan from a purely military victory into a political victory at the same time, so as to strengthen the authority of the central government, unite the hearts of the people, deter those princes who are plotting evil, and make the best use of the power in their hands. Every card, this is the means of the traitor.

The army marched all the way, passed through Yuzhou, Yanzhou, and entered Sizhou. It took more than 20 days before and after, and finally arrived near Xuchang. Cao Cao ordered the army to be stationed by the Yingshui River outside the city, and he took a group of civil and military soldiers back to face the holy city. .

Hearing that Cao Cao was returning to the court, Xuchang had already made preparations to welcome him. The eldest son, Cao Ang, brought Xun Yu, Xun You, and all the civil and military officials out of the city for thirty miles to meet him.

"I'll congratulate the prime minister on his triumphant return to the court. The prime minister's military power is invincible in the world!" Civil and military officials saluted neatly in front of Cao Cao's horse. Judging from their expressions, there was both respect and fear!

"My son welcomes father back home, father Wanan!" This time it was the eldest son Cao Ang who came out of the crowd and knelt down in front of Cao Cao to salute alone, with a look of admiration on his face. Just now, he bowed to the public, but now he bows down. It is selfish, and the control of etiquette is very decent!
