Great Wei Nengchen

After thinking over and over, Jiang Gan was surprised to find that he would most likely join Xiao Yi. Once the two sides faced each other, Cao Cao's prestige, army, and territory would be more, and he would have certain advantages in the early stage of the war, but quick victory is impossible!

Xiao Yi's strength is weaker, but he has great potential, and Cao Cao is 20 years old. As long as he spends it for a long time, he will definitely win the final victory. However, Cao Cao and Xiao Yi are both heroes. Once there is a fierce fight, there will be dead bodies A sea of ​​blood, countless casualties!

What he didn't expect was that Xiao Yi neither resisted the order nor rebelled, but surrendered his military power happily. How could such a boldness not be admirable?

"There is nothing else, please go back, Mr. Ziyi, and then tell the prime minister, fight with peace of mind, and have no worries in the rear. I will wait for the news of the triumphant return of the army on Crouching Tiger Mountain!"

Xiao Yi waved his hands, turned around and walked towards the back hall, although his back was lonely, his back was still straight, no matter when and where, Xiao Lang's majestic ghost face never fails!

Chapter 1086 Don't let it go, take retreat as advance!

"Before the flying birds are exhausted, the good bow is hidden first. Prime Minister Cao's approach is unkind. Why doesn't Xiao Lang argue with reason and refuse to hand over the soldiers and horses?"

"The truth is nothing compared to swords and guns. Let's rebel and become kings on our own, and we won't be like Han Xin - the cunning rabbit dies and the lackey cooks!"

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

Late at night-Xiao Taoist Temple-in the main hall, Xiao Yi sat cross-legged, silently contemplating major events, Ma Liu and Daniu were separated on both sides, they were extremely angry about the removal of military power, and worried about the future, Deng Ai and Hao Zhaoshou were in Da Niu The door, so no one can eavesdrop on the conversation!

Since Xiao Yi defected to Cao Ying, he has been invincible and invincible. His military exploits are unparalleled. To put it bluntly, half of the Cao family's country was brought down by Xiao Yi, but now he is under suspicion and wants to cut off half of his military power , Ma Liu and Daniel were naturally angry, and even proposed to rebel!

On the one hand, I was worried that Cao Cao would press forward step by step, take away the remaining soldiers and horses, and then separate the three of them and clean them up one by one, otherwise their lives would be lost!

On the other hand, the two also understood in their hearts that Xiao Yi had great ambitions and would never stay under others for a long time. Since he was going to rebel sooner or later, it was better to act now, and it would be better to strike first!

"The tree of the Cao family has deep roots, and it is difficult to be shaken in eagerness. It is not a last resort to rebel, and we will never do such a bad policy. Let's take it slowly!"

It's not that Xiao Yi has never considered the matter of breaking away from Cao Ying and becoming a king on his own. There is another specific plan. The Xuanjia Army, the Suppression Camp, the Danyang Army, and the Mo Dao Army are stationed near Jicheng, and they call it That is to say, obey your orders!

Gathered people overnight, went straight to Hejian County, attacked Cao Jun's base camp, killed Cao's father and son, subdued civil and military officials, and then sent troops south to take Yecheng first, then Xuchang, and then sweep the Central Plains. As long as the plan is more secret, there should be [-]% chance of winning!

Even if the sneak attack is unsuccessful, he can still march westward, firmly occupy Guanzhong, use Bingzhou and Liangzhou as two wings, and then contact the Huns and Xiqiang people to form a separate regime and remain invincible!

Although Xiao Yi handed over the 'Golden Lin Token', the prestige he has accumulated after years of fighting in the battlefield is still there. As long as he raises his arms, there must be a cloud of followers. There are also Dian Wei, Xiao Bin, Cao Cao in the army. Xing, Gao Shun... these confidantes, not to mention killing Cao's father and son, even killing the emperor is unambiguous!

The plan was well thought out, but it was very difficult to execute, because there were three major reasons that made it difficult for Xiao Yi to make up his mind, so he could obediently hand over his military power and become a "loyal minister"...

First, I have served in Cao Ying for ten years, and I am deeply involved with each other. Cao Cao is the father-in-law, Cao Jie is the wife, Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, and Cao Zhang are the brothers-in-law, and Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, Xun Yu, Xun You... a large group Close friends, life and death comrades!

Once he initiates a rebellion, he will break with everyone. Love, family affection, friendship...will be wiped out in an instant. People are not grass and trees, and no one can be ruthless. Xiao Yi would rather lose his glory and wealth than be a loner!

Second, the best route for Cao Jun’s expedition to Liaodong is to go to Bohai County, Youbeiping County... and then go straight to the Liaoxi Corridor. During the daytime conversation, I learned that Cao Cao was stationed in Hejian County, which is very close to Yuyang County. , This shows that the traitor is ready!

If Xiao Yi handed over his military power, everything would be safe and sound. On the contrary, once a dissatisfaction arises and he raises troops to launch a rebellion, the 20 Cao army in Hejian County will overwhelm him. After a fierce battle, the outcome will be hard to come by. expected?

Thirdly, my wives, sisters, sons, as well as Daniu, Gao Shun, Dianwei, Xiaobin, Cao Xing... all the wives and children of the generals live in Xuchang City, which is under the supervision of Cao Jun !

Once you launch a rebellion, your family members will suffer. At least they will be imprisoned as hostages for bargaining; at worst, they will be pushed outside the city, and all their heads will fall. Cao Cao, a traitor in troubled times, will never be soft when he kills his daughter and grandson half point!

Considering the above three points, Xiao Yi held back his anger and surrendered his military power happily. Besides, it is not a good thing for a man to be able to bend and stretch. Instead, I will figure it out!

"If Prime Minister Cao presses us every step of the way and insists on putting us to death, what should we do? Is it possible to be slaughtered by the neck?"

Xiao Yi was worried, and he didn't want to raise troops to rebel, Ma Liu and Daniel had no choice but they were still worried, the methods used by traitors in troubled times were quite vicious!

"Don't worry, the prime minister has his own sense of propriety, and he will never kill them all. If it chills the hearts of the soldiers of the three armies, isn't that self-destruction of the Great Wall?"

Xiao Yi understood in his heart that Cao Cao's reduction of his military power was just to balance the internal forces, so as not to make the heirs difficult to control, not to kill heroes!

Of course, everything is not absolute, Cao Cao is really killing people, Xiao Yi can't sit still, he must make preparations early, so he issued two orders:

One is to secretly order the Xuanjia army, the trapped camp, the Modao soldiers, the Danyang soldiers...all the troops to assemble secretly, loosen the outside and tighten the inside, and prepare for the battle.

The second is to send his confidants back to Xuchang City day and night, and hand over a silver ingot to Guo Yi, so that he can prepare secretly and take the whole family to escape at any time. - Gold ingots are safe, silver ingots are on alert!

The bad boy is dark-bellied and thick-skinned, quick-witted, and although he is younger, he is capable of taking on major events. With Xiao Jing's help, even if there is a fight, he can keep the family safe!

For the next few days, Xiao Yi continued to stay in the small Taoist temple, while cultivating his mind and character, he quietly watched the changes in the current situation. As for rebelling, or shaking hands and making peace, it all depended on Cao Cao's attitude!

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

Hejian County is located at the junction of Hebei and Youzhou, with well-developed transportation and communication with all directions. It is also a place that military strategists must contend for. After the Northern Expedition of Cao Jun, the base camp was stationed here, and they stayed for more than ten days!

In the matter of war, soldiers are expensive and fast. The 20 troops conquered Liaodong, and instead of starting from the nearby, they went around the distance. no?

At the same time, a news spread in the army, saying that Prime Minister Cao and Da Sima were at odds and wanted to deprive him of his military power. Could the two turn against each other and fight each other?

All of a sudden, the soldiers were panicked, and everyone was worried that Cao Jun would kill each other... It wasn't until the return of the envoy Jiang Gan that the answer was revealed!

"Hey! - Xiao Lang didn't love power, he directly handed over his soldiers and horses. He is really a broad-minded man. Instead, the old man became petty and hurt the hero. I really regret it!"

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Cao Cao held the letter in one hand and the Jinlin Token in the other. Knowing that Xiao Yi had not rebelled, he heaved a sigh of relief and at the same time felt remorse. This matter was not done properly!

I sent Jiang Gan to deliver the letter, originally to ask for directions, to try Xiao Yi's bottom line, originally I wanted to have some bargaining, and then I would concede some benefits to show my generosity and convince everyone!

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yi handed over the military power cleanly and neatly, which put Cao Cao in an embarrassment.

Besides, Cao Cao has always firmly believed that Xiao Yi will never rebel in his lifetime, he just wants to cut his power and suppress his spirit, so that when his son comes to power in the future, he can also control this famous general, and he doesn't want to kill them all!

It's a pity that it was self-defeating. Even if Xiao Yi didn't rebel after this action, he would inevitably feel resentful and alienated. In the future, he would crusade against the southern princes and assist the heir of the Cao family, and he might be passive and slow down!

"Xiao Lang is open-minded and not a small-minded person. When the army returned triumphantly, the prime minister followed the example of 'King Wen of Zhou's visit to Jiang Shang' and went to Crouching Tiger Mountain in person to invite sages to come out of the mountain with great courtesy!

At that time, high mountains and flowing water, toasting to drink, confiding heart to heart, pointing out the country, all conflicts will disappear with the wind, Xiao Lang will come out to lead the army, and continue to serve the prime minister, it can be called a good story! "

Guo Jia was also in the big tent, while comforting Cao Cao, he held a letter tightly in his hand, and was quite moved in his heart. Xiao Yi asked himself to go to Crouching Tiger Mountain, saying that he had important matters to discuss!

In fact, Guo Jia understands very well that Xiao Yi must have judged his illness from his handwriting. The name is to meet in the mountains and discuss military and state affairs, but in fact he is letting himself stay and cultivate his body well. It is really life to have such a close friend. What a blessing!

It's a pity, I have a heavy military mission, how can I go to the mountain to cultivate my body, I'd better wait for the army to triumph, and then go to Crouching Tiger Mountain. I also yearn for the days of living in seclusion and freedom in the mountains!

"Following Xiao's words, it makes sense. After Liaodong is pacified, the old man will definitely go to Crouching Tiger Mountain in person, visit the door to apologize, and confess his heart. He will never do such a thing like Meng Lang again!

In the future, to govern the country in Anbang, you still need a civil and military assistance. After a hundred years, you will be the ministers of Tuo Gu, assisting the masters of future generations, and creating a prosperous and prosperous world! "

Cao Cao nodded frequently, and also made a decision. In the future, Xiao Yi and Guo Jia will be the ones who will assist the heirs of the Cao family to replace the Han family and create the Cao family dynasty!

Next, Cao Cao sent an order to the whole army to pull out their camps and continue northward. After joining forces with other armies in Youzhou, they went directly to Liaoxi County, trying to end all wars in the north before winter came!

Chapter 1087 The labor division expedition, the long journey!

In the sixth year of Jian'an - spring, on the sixth day of March, 20 Cao troops set up their camps and passed through Hejian, Guangyang, Yuyang... all the way to Youbeiping County. The troops were stationed in Wuzhong City, and they used it as their base camp to store food and grass. , recruited civilian husbands, and prepared to wipe out the counties of Liaodong in one fell swoop!

20 days later, everything was ready. Cao Cao chose an auspicious day and picked a good time, and personally boarded the Dianjiangtai, held a grand expedition ceremony, and slaughtered the green cattle and white horses to sacrifice to the heaven, earth, and gods, and blessed the victory of the flag and the success of the horse!

Immediately afterwards, the general Xu Huang was the vanguard, Zhang He and Gao Lan were the second team, Cao Cao personally led the Chinese army, and Xiahou brothers were the backup... All the ministries went one by one and started the expedition to Liaodong. It was really like a tiger, a horse like a dragon, and a helmet Jialiang, the morale is strong...and the first thing they face is the 'Liaoxi Corridor! '

Corridor in the west of Liao--Songshan Mountain in the north and Bohai Sea in the south, with a total length of more than [-] miles, a width of [-] to [-] miles, and a narrowness of only a few miles. The terrain slopes from northwest to southeast. The main road between the two major plains of North China and North China is also a battleground for military strategists!
