The Three Kingdoms

However, with the Youzhou battle that broke out between Soochow and Cao Wei, the whole Jizhou suddenly became a little panicked. The Wei people in Jizhou might have been a little excited before. After all, they won many battles and even entered Youzhou.

But now for the people of Jizhou, there is only one uneasiness left.

Reports of the Battle of Youzhou continued to come back. The Wei army was defeated, and even the confidence of the entire army was annihilated. The whole Jizhou began to spread rumors, and the people's hearts were suddenly in chaos.

This time, Jizhou, which has been peaceful for many years, once again faced the coming of war, and suddenly panicked.

At this time, the remnants of the Wei army who broke out continuously and returned to Jizhou were supposed to cooperate with the ruling officials of the Governor's Mansion to stabilize the hearts of the whole Jizhou, but they became fuel to the fire and started a civil strife.

Between the north and the south, a confrontation has formed.

In the north, they broke out of the siege not long ago, and their troops were weak. Yu Jin, Xu Huang, and Cao Hong were all wounded and disabled generals. Their strength was less than [-]. They managed to take Hejian and Zhongshan as a resting place.

And south.On the other hand, the second prince Cao Pi, who had already returned to Jizhou, and even controlled the entire Jizhou, had a force of nearly [-] troops under his command, plus seven or eighty-eight young men.It can be said that the soldiers are strong and the horses are strong.

Wei County.

This is the seat of Jizhou and the core of Jizhou's rule. As Cao Pi's army entered Yecheng and imprisoned Xu You, the former governor of Jizhou, this place has become under the control of Cao Pi.

"Damn bastard!"

this day.In the governor's mansion, Cao Pi sat cross-legged in the lobby, his cheeks flushed, he beat up, and was furious: "What exactly are Xu Huang and the others trying to do? A certain family sent people to deliver food and grass to appease their injuries. They Fortunately, without further ado, they directly killed the envoy sent by a certain family. Do they want to raise troops to attack a certain family?"

A few days ago, when he learned that Yu Jin Xu Huang had broken out of the siege, he immediately sent envoys to appease them, but the envoys he sent were beheaded by them one by one after entering their barracks.

Xu Huang and Yu Jin acted resolutely and without mercy, when they entered the land between the rivers, they didn't say anything.He beheaded in public the governor of Hejian County appointed by Cao Pi himself, and Cao Hong also gained a foothold in Zhongshan County.

Cao Pi knew that they were warning themselves and showing their intentions.Never surrender.

Facing the three great generals who held their heads up all over the Great Wei Dynasty all of a sudden, he couldn't calm down, and even became a little panicked.

Cao Hong is his uncle, the elder who watched him grow up.

Yu Jin was his former boss.His ability to fight is taught by him.

Xu Huang is the first-class cavalry warrior beside his father.

These three people are all one of the twelve well-known chief guards under Cao Cao's command. He is afraid of each of them. The prestige and strength of the three combined, in normal times, as long as they play impeachment, it is enough to make him die ten times. .

But there is one thing Cao Pi is quite fortunate about.

Zhang Liao did not return to Jizhou, and he led the main force of the Wei army to break through to the west and went to Bingzhou. That is to say, he couldn't care about Jizhou for a while.

This is good news for him.

Without Zhang Liao provoking the main beam, without the restraint of the main force of the Wei army, he felt a lot more at ease.

After all, under the strategy of the counselor Cui Zhouping and the support of some caring people in the court, his troops are not weak. The [-] elites have been recovered by him, plus the [-] young men who were forcibly recruited from various states and counties during this period Zhuang, and the tens of thousands of elite Black Mountain troops who have already surrendered to him and walked out of the mountains, with a strength of over [-], are enough for him to dominate Jizhou.

"Huh, I didn't expect Soochow to be useless at all. Pang Shiyuan returned to the Phoenix and flew into the sky. He became a blockbuster and became famous all over the world. Now it seems that he is also a waste. This will make them break out!"

Cao Pi couldn't help feeling resentful towards Soochow. He clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and said angrily, "It's useless at all!"

Because of the battle in Youzhou, Pang Tong's name has already been included in the list of the top strategists in the world.

However, the encirclement and suppression of Zhuojun lost power, which made Cao Pi feel a little unhappy with this phoenix chick.

"Second prince, be safe and don't be impatient!"

At this time, counselor Cui Zhouping stood up, looked at Cao Pi's handsome but slightly gloomy face, smiled slightly, and said, "Maybe this is not a bad thing, on the contrary, they are still a source of negotiation between the second prince and the court. Without them, the court would not buy our account!"

"What's the meaning of this statement?"

Cao Pi asked in puzzlement when he heard the words.

"Second prince, if they don't stand up and seek rebellion, how can you justifiably send troops to quell the chaos?" Cui Zhouping said faintly with a crack in the corner of his mouth.

"Treason?"

Cao Pi narrowed his eyes, frowned, and said, "They are all powerful generals of our Great Wei Dynasty. Who would believe that they conspired against the Great Wei Dynasty?"

"Second prince, this statement is wrong. As long as you are willing to say it, some people will believe it. They have already disappointed the people of Wei after losing the battle. At this time, as long as we add fuel and vinegar a little bit, and pass some news among the people of Jizhou , will definitely add fuel to the fire!"

Cui Zhouping's eyes burst into a sharp light, and he said in a low voice.

He is very good at this matter, no, it should be said that Jin Yiwei is very good at it, as long as they can control public opinion, this crime will be up to them to say, the three of them can become tigers, after all, Yu Jin and they suffered a big defeat. fact.

"What does that mean, send troops to fight and kill them?"

Cao Pi's eyes flashed fiercely.

"Ha ha!"

Cui Zhouping smiled when he heard this.But he shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "Second prince, they are all mighty generals of the Great Wei, and they must never be killed. Isn't this self-destructing the wings of our Great Wei? It will also make you a traitor, and the gain outweighs the loss !"

He knew very well that Cao Pi was testing himself.

Although Cao Pi is not very talented, but his intelligence is not bad, very smart.Moreover, he inherited the suspicious character of his father Cao Cao. Following his actions during this period of time, he already had some doubts about whether he was from Soochow.

Yu Jin they cannot be killed.

Cao Pi was very clear about this point. Killing them would do him no good but consume Cao Wei Yichao's strength. After all, the three generals are all Cao Wei's mighty generals, which means a lot, so he used this to test Cui Zhouping .

Cui Zhouping's answer satisfied him a lot, and he asked in a deep voice, "Since you can't kill, what's the use?"

"Second prince. They are of great use. You can use their safety to propose to the imperial court to seize the position of governor of Jizhou and separatize Hebei in a legitimate way. Why not do it?" Cui Zhouping said word by word.

"Sir, what you said is very kind!"

When Cao Pi heard the words, he immediately looked overjoyed. What is he most lacking now?

It's justice!

The position of the governor of Jizhou is the righteousness of his separatist regime in Hebei.

As long as he can win this position, he can justifiably become a vassal, and he doesn't have to look at the face of the court to be a man.

But he cannot claim this position.Only by being rewarded by the imperial court can people's hearts be stabilized.

But after he got excited, he quickly calmed down.

"But there is one thing that a certain family is worried about. They are not easy to deal with!"

Cao Pi banned several of them.Fear from the bottom of my heart.

"Second prince, don't worry, they are just a few bereaved dogs, all of them are wounded soldiers!"

Cui Zhouping seemed to be holding a wisdom pearl, and said with a smile: "But we are already strong and strong. Now you have taken the lead in Jizhou, and many Jizhou clans have already leaned towards you. As long as you can send troops to calm down a few people, you can lead the general situation in Hebei, just like In the past, Yuan Benchu ​​relied heavily on Hebei and looked down on the world, so he can accomplish great things!"
