If you don't wear women's clothes, the big man will die!

Sun Jian quickly covered Cao Cao's mouth: "Then be careful, what you say now will shake my army's morale."

Cao Cao also knew this truth, and quickly suppressed it. He lowered his head and said helplessly, "Can't you do less killing?"

"Where we have only attacked now, how many areas in the country have been reduced to the hands of the Yellow Turban Bandits, and they have killed a lot. At least for now, before the overall situation can be stabilized, even I agree with General Huangfu. If the overall situation is stable He still uses the current method to massacre, and the soldiers and the masters will persuade him," Sun Jian said, watching Cao Cao carefully, and the impatient General Youzhong calmed down under his persuasion. , obviously listened to his words.

Looking at the momentum of the dispute between him and Huangfusong before, Sun Jian felt a little flattered: I didn't expect him to really listen to it?

Cao Cao nodded, pulled Sun Jian into his camp, and had a detailed chat with him in private. He firmly said: "If the overall situation is stable, the remnants of the Yellow Turbans should be persuaded to surrender, and persuade them to farm instead of killing evil. What do you think?"

Sun Jian agreed, and even said: "If the general still has a dispute with General Huangfu at that time, I will stand up and speak for you."

Cao Cao couldn't help smiling: "I heard that Vice General Sun is a descendant of Sun Wu? I think your vision is completely different from others."

Sun Jian laughed and said: "My ancestor is Sun Wu. Because of my family education, I have been interested in the art of war since I was a child. I have learned a lot of ideas on paper. Now it is time to apply the knowledge I have learned to practice and serve the country. It's time."

Sun Jian is more than eight feet tall, handsome and handsome, and his facial features look very comfortable. Cao Cao can't help but want to take a small knife to fix his rough eyebrows. Every time he sees his face, he can't bear it. I couldn't help itching for a while.After chatting carefully, it was discovered that they were the same age, which made Cao Cao say that they were destined.

After getting along with each other on the march, the two gradually became acquainted. They are both young people who like the art of war and have a righteous personality. The hearts of men cherish each other. It is just a glass of water to form good brothers on the battlefield. Cao Cao and Sun Jian meet in the form of a fist bump. : "When the world is stable, we will drink together in the future!"

Sun Jian bumped fists with him: "One look is sure, everyone is responsible for calming down the world, you and I must go all out!"

A great victory does not mean that the crisis is over. Corpses are piled up on the battlefield, and the post-war clean-up work is urgent.

Huangfusong left behind the remaining troops to garrison here to clean up the battlefield. If these corpses are not buried properly, they will either be reduced to food for wild beasts, or they will be corrupted and breed pestilence.

The soldiers worked together to dig hundreds of large pits, and threw all the corpses of the enemy and us into the pits to bury them. As a pension, his family will receive some military pay after the war as compensation and comfort.

After the great victory, Huangfusong gathered the whole army to discuss the route of attacking from Changshe. The army drove straight in and captured the three counties in succession. By the time the army arrived in Yingchuan, it was already May.

Various places have experienced wars, which directly affected this year's spring plowing. Large areas of farmland were destroyed, and it was almost possible to see the scene of no harvest and famine in autumn.

When the army entered Yingchuan, the former prosperous scene no longer existed here, the houses everywhere were destroyed, and the prefect's mansion was dilapidated. The aristocratic families and local tyrants united to cooperate with Huangfusong to kill all the yellow scarves in Yingchuan. drive away.

The main force of the Yellow Turbans was dedicated to attacking the government and the powerful. They were supported by the poor people, but they offended the local big clans who really owned the tribe. The trilogy of each family is the main body, resisting the intrusion of the Yellow Turban Army.

Unable to see the acquaintances he once knew, Cao Cao felt lost, and his heart became more and more uneasy. He wanted to know what happened to Yingchuan Academy?

Relatively speaking, Xingyang, which is a little closer to Luoyang, has maintained a fairly complete protection under Sima Jun's governance, and the people can still farm normally.

Wars and wars left Yingchuan devastated, with no one to farm or clean it up. It was as dilapidated as abandoned garbage.

Cao Cao once again took the risk of arguing with the commander-in-chief to suggest to Huangfusong: "General Huangfu, a general should not only protect the environment, but also comfort the people! Everywhere we go, we kill so many yellow scarves, but we don't treat the local people well." To appease the people, an official should comfort the people like a son. You have served as the prefect of the Northland, so you should not fail to understand this truth. Now that we have attacked Yingchuan, it is not far to join the troops of Dong Zhuo and Lu Zhi."

Geographically speaking, if they go further north, they will be able to meet the coalition forces led by Dong and Lu who are confronting the main force of the Yellow Turbans.

Chiefs and generals can't argue too much, let alone have different strategies on the battlefield. You command the east, and I command the west.

What is interesting about Cao Cao is that he only fought with Huangfusong behind closed doors. The soldiers at the bottom didn't know, but the lieutenants suffered disaster.

Huangfusong did not argue with Cao Cao this time, but calmed down and pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Your suggestion will be adopted."

Cao Cao's face suddenly showed surprise, and the surprise and surprise froze on his face, causing Huangfusong to snort coldly.

"Based on the stabbing impression you gave me before, I even thought that you would refute my decision on the battlefield, and even confront me," Huangfusong said lightly, "I didn't expect you to be able to hold your breath. You buried the body after death, and you were still in charge of transporting food, I have never seen you resist military orders."

This is also the reason why Huangfusong changed his view of Cao Cao. From what he saw, those powerful and talented children who pretended to be noble and talented were extremely ignorant. Extreme phenomena are situations that Huangfusong has seen countless times.If Cao Cao relied on his family to talk back to him and question the military strategy of the chief general of the army, he would definitely punish those who disobeyed the military order!

On the contrary, Cao Cao was obedient and obedient, and he did everything he was asked to do carefully and perfectly, but Huangfusong wanted to look at him high and calm down.

It is this stubborn temperament, which is exactly the same as the bridge stone who is full of peace of mind.

After a few months, it was enough for Huangfusong to understand what kind of person Cao Cao was. He asked Cao Cao lightly: "You have extraordinary martial arts skills, and you are always invincible when you are in the front of the battle. But I let you go to the rear and bury the corpse. Don't you think it's a waste of your martial arts to survey the terrain? Don't you have any grievances?"

Cao Cao was surprised and said: "Why did General Huangfu say that? We are fighting now. In the war, every link is very important and indispensable. If you want to win, you can't win by charging alone. There is no end. , the same as a dead fish."

Huangfusong laughed loudly, his chest vibrated violently, and his rough voice almost spread from the commander-in-chief and battalion commander: "Duan Ying taught you this too?"

Cao Cao acquiesced, thanked Huangfusong again for agreeing to Anmin's decision, and even walked like a tiger.

Soon, the imperial court ordered Huangfusong, who occupied Yingchuan, and others to continue to attack northward, join forces with Dong Zhuo and Lu Zhi in Guangzong, and wipe out all the Yellow Turbans of Zhang Jiao, Zhang Liang, and Zhang Bao in one go.

From the time when the imperial edict was issued, to when it was spread all the way to Yingchuan by the messenger, it was already September. After four months of building a house for the people, Yingchuan finally got a little bit of recuperation and avoided the disaster. The people who fled in the mountains returned to their hometowns after receiving the news.

The Yellow Turban Army hated the officials and the rich. Ordinary civilians could easily escape this disaster. Everywhere they went, they also liked to preach and recruit more people.

Since Huangfusong promised to Anmin, he issued an order: ordinary people who have been deceived by yellow scarves can be forgiven if they turn around in time, admit their mistakes, and come back to live in farmland with peace of mind.

As soon as this order came out, Yingchuan survived the war, and the people who flowed out gradually returned, and it didn't take long for nearly a thousand people to live there.

Cao Cao, the envoy who came to deliver the decree to the imperial court, was very familiar with him. When he first saw his former classmate, he was very pleasantly surprised: "Yuan Shao!"

Yuan Shao smiled: "Meng De, don't come here without any problems."

It turned out that the hometown where Yuan Shao lived was also affected by the military disaster. The whole family of the Yuan family in Runan migrated, and Yuan Shao was recruited by the general He Jin and returned to the court to serve. The deputy general, who accompanied Huangfusong to attack the Yellow Turban, also contributed to the national calamity.

Huangfusong once again convened a meeting of the generals, and strictly demanded that everyone devote themselves to military training: "Look at how terribly the yellow scarf mob was beaten, and you should know that a hundred elite soldiers are better than a thousand peasants." Soldiers are much more powerful!"

Therefore, we must train the soldiers in our hands to be strong soldiers, equipped with excellent weapons and abundant arrows and horses, so that we can be invincible and wipe out the Yellow Turban Bandits in one go.

The imperial court ordered Huangfusong to arrive before October to join Dong Zhuo and Lu Zhi. He really pressed the last time point, while training and rushing, trying his best to sharpen the soldiers in his hands like sharp swords.

As soon as October came, sent troops to the north and directly attacked Guangzong, where the Yellow Turban Army gathered. It was mainly guarded by one of the three brothers, "Rengong" General Zhang Liang.

The Yellow Turbans gathered here are more ferocious than those who have fought before. They are a group of fierce and desperate people. They are one of the three most elite armies of the Yellow Turban Army. Even the weapons are different from before. They carry big swords , holding spears, and even wooden arrows for them to defend the city!

Huangfusong's previous strict requirements on his subordinates came in handy at this time. The army's think tanks and generals discussed the attack method together, and various strategies were launched in turn. The yellow scarves played around in circles. In just a few days, nearly [-] Guangzong yellow scarves were killed in battle!

Sun Jian fought ferociously, almost desperately fighting in front of the battle. The others advised him, "As a general in an army, you must be responsible for your subordinates. How can you rush to the front to kill like soldiers? If you go out If it’s over, wouldn’t it just raise the enemy’s arrogance?”

Sun Jian yelled, "Generals are greedy for life and afraid of death. Who would dare to fight me?"

These words won Cao Cao's heart deeply. Whenever he and Sun Jian got a chance to cooperate, with the cooperation of the two, they could even entrust their backs to each other.

Guangzong's Yellow Turban army fled, and Sun Jian shouted loudly: "Take advantage of the victory and pursue!"

He rushed forward anxiously, Cao Cao felt that something was wrong after analyzing the situation, the number of the fleeing army was far greater than theirs, and the chasing army was scattered and prone to ambushes.

Soon, the news of Sun Jian's disappearance really came, and only his horse returned to the camp. Cao Cao was anxious, and followed his footsteps all the way to find Sun Jian, who was injured and lying in the grass, and suddenly laughed angrily. , scolded loudly: "Reckless!"

Sun Jian grinned at him: "Meng De, give me a hand!"

Cao Cao took him back to the camp, and the military doctor bandaged his wound. After ten days of recuperation, he went to participate in the siege again.

Lu Zhi and Dong Zhuo had been attacking Zhangjiao for a long time, and the army surrounded Quyang, anxious. The imperial court recalled Lu Zhi for the crime of being unfavorable in combat, and imprisoned Dong Zhuo for trial. .

When the news of Guangzong's victory came, the morale of the whole army was greatly improved, and the coalition camp without a leader was stationed outside Julu City under the joint efforts of several lieutenants.

On the other side, the reinforcements led by Huangfusong arrived and ordered the armies of Lu Zhi and Dong Zhuo to echo each other and attack the giant deer in the isolated city.

Zhang Bao led his army in Julu City to resist desperately, but refused to surrender. One hundred thousand Yellow Turban soldiers in Julu came out in full force, fighting a life-and-death battle.

In such a stalemate, it was impossible to capture the city at all, and anxiety spread in the army. Both the generals and the soldiers were a little flustered.

"Damn it, why are their morale so high? Aren't they afraid of death?!" Sun Jian said in disbelief, "After being besieged for so long, the Yellow Turban Army's morale has been solidified to this point."

"At any time, as long as someone calls out the name of General 'Tiangong', the great virtuous teacher Zhang Jiao, they will bite like wild beasts, and the morale of our army will be suppressed by them instead." Yuan Shao Thinking deeply: "What are they able to firmly believe in going to death for?"

Huangfu Song was thoughtful, but Cao Cao said with great hatred: "The great virtuous and good teacher Zhang Jiao is a Taoist priest who deceives the public! Earlier I heard that he used talisman water to heal people and deceived the people to believe him. The people are ignorant. So far, he was easily fooled, and even gave his life for it.”

Faith, Zhang Jiao gathered the hearts of the Yellow Turban Army and had supreme faith in the army. He was not only the leader of the peasant uprising, but also a missionary. He created the "Taiping Dao"!

Huangfusong immediately took the case and ordered: "Immediately order people to spread rumors everywhere, saying that the great virtuous teacher Zhang Jiao died of illness, and that the great virtuous teacher couldn't even heal himself, so he must be a liar to deceive the public!"

When Huangfusong gave an order, Cao Cao's eyes lit up.

Perhaps Lian Cangtian abandoned the Yellow Turban Army, and just as the rumors spread gradually spread, Zhang Jiao among the giant deer really died of illness!

Due to the spread of rumors, several coaches at the core of the Yellow Turbans still did not believe it, and came to seek confirmation, but they did not expect to see Zhang Jiao's body.

More and more rumors spread among the Yellow Turban Army, and morale dropped suddenly. As a result, the imperial army broke through the city gate, and rushed into the giant deer like a bamboo roll.

Huangfusong did one thing, he ordered his generals to "slaughter the city!"

No matter men, women or children, those who wear yellow scarves will be killed without mercy!

The giant deer had a total of [-] yellow scarves, and they were strangled to death by the imperial army. Their blood was scattered in the air, and dark clouds gathered in the sky. Even the raindrops that fell were half red like blood.

Huangfusong became famous especially in this battle!

After the two armies merged, Huangfusong became the veritable commander-in-chief of the two armies, assigning tasks to his subordinates, ordering the armies to divide their troops, and scattered to wipe out the remnants of the Yellow Turbans who had escaped.

Huangfusong ordered coldly: "No matter what means you want to use, as long as you achieve your goal, the task will be completed if you put down the Yellow Turban Rebellion within the scope of the task."

After finishing speaking, Huangfu Song took a meaningful look at Cao Cao, and assigned troops to everyone again, only Cao Cao was given a group of infantry, while Dong Zhuo, Lu Zhi and others all had cavalry in their hands, and they could charge forward, making the Yellow Turbans fearful.

After the first battle of Julu, the most important places where the Yellow Turbans were scattered were already under the control of the imperial court, and the rest of the Yellow Turbans were like free-range chickens, one piece here. The route he assigned was cleaned up and checked, only to see barren land, destroyed houses, dilapidated wells, dead trees by the roadside and lonely and ominous crows in the sky.

There were almost no people in the villages and towns responsible for the investigation. The infantrymen found a few hidden children from the cellar. They were starving, emaciated, and dying.

Cao Cao ordered someone to distribute some rough lumps and water to these children. There are still two months before Huangfusong's return time. He has nothing to do. Now he goes back in desperation and asks why Huangfusong pointed him to such a place?No, that's too childish, like a child begging for candy, it will only make people look down upon.

Cao Cao ordered his soldiers to live in a deserted town, counted the rations and luggage, and after confirming that there was enough food for them for two months, he led people to start plastering walls, repairing city defenses, building houses, and roads, and ordered people to A notice was posted at the entrance of the town to allow the common people to live inside. If there are yellow scarves who have reformed and are willing to surrender, they must tear up the yellow scarves and swear poisonous oaths to the land before they can enter.

Cao Cao thought for a while. Someone saw that no one dared to come from the army, so he asked a few surviving children to wander around the village every day. He saw people tentatively approaching the town to inquire, and asked them to come as lobbyists and welcome people into the city.

Few people came at the beginning, and the common people brought their family members and fleeing belongings, and were welcomed into the small town by a few children in a panic.After a long time, the town has gained popularity. After two months, the town has welcomed nearly [-] people who were hiding around and couldn't survive.

Cao Cao led people to complete the repair of the city, organized the people to set up a team of village braves to maintain the security of the town, and designated the leader as the mayor of the town, and then led the army back.

When they returned to the base camp, all the generals were reporting the achievements of the troops they led, most of them were reporting how many Yellow Turban soldiers they had killed and how many villages and towns they had captured. It will also mention how many Yellow Turbans they killed and persuaded to surrender.

Cao Cao said to Huangfusong: "The area that the general pointed out to me was once almost untouched by the government and protected by no one, so it became an empty town. Since there is no yellow scarf for the future to kill, the latter has no face to come back, so the two At the end of the month, people will be sent to repair the city."

As soon as this remark came out, the low-level soldiers snickered, the expressions of the generals varied, and Huangfusong looked serious.

Facing Huangfusong's stern gaze fearlessly, Cao Cao said sonorously and forcefully: "50 refugees have been recruited, including [-] yellow scarves who were persuaded by the common people to surrender. Solve their livelihoods, teach them how to survive, and leave enough edible food for them to save for the next year!"

Huangfusong glanced over the crowd, and landed on those who were laughing, and said expressionlessly, "Is it funny?"

"Only when the people are recruited can local production be resumed. With people, food, clothes and tools can be created by people's hands. For these generals who kill people, how easy is it to kill people? The enemy's head fell to the ground, but raising people is a hundred times more difficult than killing people!"

Everyone hissed and avoided Huangfusong's gaze.

Sun Jian sneakily gestured to Cao Cao, expressing his support for Cao Cao, which made Cao Cao smile.

Everyone knows that the Yellow Turban Army will not be completely wiped out like this, and so many rebellious peasants cannot be wiped out overnight. Judging from the escape route, it is to avoid the many places of the government and go to the west.

Soon, the imperial court came to order that Huangfu Song be made Jizhou Shepherd, Zuo Cheqi General, and eight thousand households in the city.Cao Cao was also granted the title of Yanzhou Shepherd, the right chariot riding general, and [-] households in the city, and he went to Yanzhou to serve as soon as possible.

"It is inevitable that the Yellow Turban Army will become popular again. Your Majesty ordered General Huangfu to stay here."

"The remnants of the Yellow Turbans in Yanzhou were rampant. General Cao played an outstanding role in this battle. He was brave and good at fighting before the war, and he was good at appeasing the people after the war. General Cao deserves the post in Yanzhou."

Then he carried out other people's rewards, and ordered Zhu Jun, Sun Jian, Yuan Shao and others to lead the remaining tens of thousands of soldiers back to Luoyang, while Cao Cao and Huangfusong were in the fiefdoms respectively to recuperate after the war and appease the people.

A title of Jizhou Mu, a fief close to Wanhuhou, emptied all the troops in Huang Pusong's hands, and only allowed to keep the guards who pressed the bottom line, and the rest had to go back to the court together!

Cao Cao didn't know who was obstructing it, but it was the clans or eunuchs who were afraid that Huangfu Song would have too much military power when he returned to the court.

Those who don't know the key points are still congratulating Huangfusong on getting the official position of state pastor.

The army returned to the imperial court, leaving Cao Cao alone to follow Huangfusong, like an orphan abandoned by his parents in a foreign land. Cao Cao felt confused, and was chilled by Liu Hong's sudden order.

Why did His Majesty leave him and General Huangfu outside when everyone went back?

Maybe Liu Hong won't protect Huangfusong if someone messes him up, but Cao Cao will never be suppressed by others, unless His Majesty originally planned to do so!

Cao Cao suddenly didn't know what was wrong, he was driven out of the ducks, and became the state herdsman in a barren land after the war, where the remnants of the Yellow Turbans fled.

Before leaving, Huangfusong toasted Cao Cao and said solemnly: "This is a farewell, the king should cherish it, don't be greedy for merit, and don't be kind to women. An official should be relaxed. Whether you do or not, depends on the current situation. It has a lot to do with it, the words have come to an end, I offer you a glass of wine as a farewell."

The pain of parting lingered in Cao Cao's heart. Yuan Shao, Sun Jian and others led the army back to the court. The unfamiliar Yanzhou was in front of him. Liu Hong's words resounded in Cao Cao's ears as if he had confessed his will. In the sky, he intuited that something important was about to leave him.

All the way to the chaotic Yanzhou, and on the way to the post, he killed several groups of robbers who were planning to kill people and get rich.

After arriving in Yanzhou, Cao Cao's prefectural pastoral office was located in Dongjun, where the Yellow Turban rebellion was the most violent. The previous governor of Dongjun was killed by the remnants of the Yellow Turban, and his head was still hanging on the city wall. No one took it down. Under the brainwashing of the yellow turban thieves, the common people are extremely wary of the government, and even kill the officials.

Refugees, local clans, yellow scarves, and celebrities hiding in the mountains became the focus of Cao Cao's next work. He not only needed to set up a guard, but also needed to build cities, roads, weapons, and fields. The devastated Yanzhou was the first time he took office. In [-], poverty and famine were encountered, and people starved to death on the streets not far from the State Shepherd's Mansion.

No money, no food, no one, but he has internal strength and full of economics. In the next few years, Cao Cao was so busy that he never touched the ground. Whenever this happened, he regretted that he had learned too little in Taixue and failed to learn everything. Read all the bamboo slips.

When the book is used, the person hates less, and the deep understanding of this begins with being a state shepherd who is truly independent.

The teachings of the predecessors have accumulated a wealth of experience for Cao Cao, and his iron body allows him to adapt to high-intensity operations.

Bad news continued to come from Luoyang. For example, the rewards for winning the big victory after the attack on the Yellow Turban were not in place, and most of the generals were suppressed. Rewards, let alone the dead, the soldiers died for the court, but the court was unwilling to pay for the relatives of the dead soldiers.

Buying and selling officials and titles is very popular in the imperial court, even to the point where if you want to be promoted, you have to rely on money to get promoted!

Many courtiers could not be officials, so they resigned and returned, and more and more people were promoted. Luoyang was like a sponge, constantly absorbing nutrients from the surroundings, and nourishing the people in the center to become fat and strong.

Even Cao Song relied on buying an official to become the Taiwei, the head of the three lords. That was the highest position that Qiao Xuan and Cao Jie had achieved in the confrontation, the throne of one person under ten thousand, and his old man My father was addicted to it. When Cao Cao heard about this, the prefects from all over the country came to congratulate him with gifts. He smiled and said, "There is nothing to congratulate. The position you got with money is destined to not last long."

He returned all the gifts sent by the eunuchs, which was a slight blow to the fluttering crowd.

In order to govern Yanzhou well, Cao Cao sent people to search various places, found famous scholars living in various places in the territory and persuaded them to come out to become officials, and he personally visited and invited those who were familiar with the past and the present.

There is a man named Chen Gong in the East County he governs, from Dongwuyang in the East County. Cao Cao went to visit him. When he entered the deep mountains and old forests, the country was in danger again. Rebellion, and the remnants of the Yellow Turbans everywhere have a tendency to rise again!

When Cao Cao led Chen Gong back to the State Shepherd's Mansion, Luoyang had already summoned Huangfusong and Dong Zhuo back to suppress the rebellion, but Cao Cao in Yanzhou seemed to have been completely forgotten by those in power.

Cao Cao was so anxious that he wrote a memorial that night, asking Liu Hong to transfer him back to Luoyang.

As soon as the memorial went there, there was no news, and Luoyang, which became more and more absurd, kept sending strange decrees one after another.

In order to protect himself, the emperor formally set up the eighth school lieutenant of Xiyuan as a good job sharing official positions and titles, and transferred a group of young generals who performed well in the war to Luoyang. Only Cao Cao was transferred from the original eighth school of Xiyuan by him. Weizhong was excluded.

Foreign tribes invaded, wars broke out in the northwest, and all localities were ordered to stand in danger. In order to protect Luoyang, the imperial court ordered that all localities be allowed to recruit troops to resist the enemy!

All over the country suddenly fell into a situation of warlord separatism like sparks exploding.

There were constantly bad news coming to Yanzhou, and Cao Cao was almost numb after hearing it.

The party is resurgent, the eight lieutenants of Xiyuan all obey the orders of the eunuchs, and the ten permanent attendants control the government. The former Taixue students and gentlemen, like moths to the flame, resisted the pain of the collapse of the building with their flesh and blood. People suffer with hatred, and the successive "partisans" have disputes with the ten permanent servants again, and one name after another has become a gray memory, forever silent in this broken memory of the mountains and rivers!

Under the pressure of high-intensity work in Yanzhou, Cao Cao can only sleep for two hours a day. Busyness can eventually bring rewards. The trust and support of the people brought him the only brightest picture in this bloody memory.

Eagerly writing down the memorial, one petition after another sent to Luoyang fell into the sea. The emperor turned a blind eye to his petition. Without a transfer order, he could not even leave the border of Yanzhou.

When Cao Cao was 34 years old, Cao Song resigned from office and retired to seclusion. This was the only good news he could hear. A letter written by Cao Song was sent to the place where Cao Cao worked.

I have been unable to contact my family for many years. It turns out that the emperor blocked all news that could be delivered to him!

At this time, Cao Cao already had his own army. There were more than 5 guards in Yanzhou under his command, and another [-] peasant soldiers. They were all hard-working ordinary people when there was no war. Once there was a war , When the conscription order was issued, these peasant soldiers who admired and admired Cao Cao could respond to his orders and quickly assemble.

Cao Cao immediately took a team of people and went to meet his father and family along the way. After so many years, it was almost his extravagant hope to be reunited with his family again. Now that he could finally see his parents and children, how could He is excited?

He hurried all the way with his people, and finally saw Cao Song with nearly a hundred carts of luggage. Thanks to his father, he also brought guards to protect the group of luggage. Cao Cao was afraid for a while, and complained to Cao Song: "You brought so much Things, are you not afraid of being slaughtered as a fat sheep by the yellow scarves on the road? Your wealth and belongings are all fake, and your life is the most important thing!"

Seeing that the wrinkles at the corners of Cao Song's eyes became deeper and graying appeared on his temples, Cao Cao knelt down in front of Cao Song and cried, "My son is not filial and cannot serve his father. Please worry about it!"

Cao Song was also emotional, he helped Cao Cao up with trembling hands, his face was choked with tears, and after a long while, he said, "Why hasn't Ah Man changed a bit in all these years?"

Zou wiped away her tears and smiled through her tears: "No, Ah Man is still so young, he doesn't look like 30 years old at all, Ang'er, do you still remember your father?"

The little boy she led timidly grabbed the hem of his clothes, showing half of his head behind Zou. It was Cao Cao's baby whom he hadn't seen in five years.

Cao Ang obviously didn't remember what Cao Cao looked like, but the feeling of wanting to be close in his bones made him summon up the courage to call Cao Cao his father.

Cao Cao stretched out his arms to pick him up, responded loudly, and said loudly, "Go, father will take you to see your new home."

The new home is located in Dongjun, which is the mansion he bought long ago after he heard that Cao Song had resigned.

After the war, the population of Yanzhou withered and the land was sparsely populated. In recent years, the people dared to have children only after they lived and worked in peace and contentment. In the entire East County, the most children were running in the streets and alleys.

After Cao Cao and his family settled down, Cao Song looked for him alone, and said seriously, "Aren't you going to ask about your Majesty's situation?"

Cao Cao was stunned, and a bad premonition arose in his heart: "The son originally wanted to avoid the news about His Majesty, but now that the father told him, he realized that his concern for His Majesty has never stopped in the past five years, so I asked the father to tell the son. , What happened to Your Majesty?!"

"Your Majesty hasn't been to court for nearly three years." Cao Song closed his eyes, finally unable to bear it and said, "I saw His Majesty for the last time when I resigned for my father. He is about to die."

A bolt from the blue hit Cao Cao's head!

Cao Cao's face was pale, and he shouted in disbelief: "How is it possible, he is a few months younger than me, and he was fine before I left!"

Cao Song shook his head: "My father won't lie to you, you..."

After all, there is an eternal separation between man and nature, Cao Song couldn't bear to look at his son's expression again, so he could only sigh helplessly: "Be prepared for His Majesty's imminent death, the world will be in chaos."

Tremendous horror shrouded Cao Cao's heart. He took a deep breath and made up his mind immediately: "I'm going to Luoyang!"

"Go to Luoyang?! When are you going to Luoyang now? Luoyang is about to be in chaos. All the rich and powerful clans with connections have moved away. Talented ministers and celebrities have also left Luoyang. The entire city of Luoyang Among them are eunuchs and relatives who are red-eyed, and generals who came back from suppressing the rebellion and took military power to seek revenge from the eunuchs. What are you going to do as a local official?!" Cao Song shouted anxiously: "No! Go back, go back and die!"

"My son won't die. Don't you know how chaotic Yanzhou was? Your Majesty left his son alone in Yanzhou. Isn't father worried?" Cao Cao resolutely put away his luggage, rode his horse, and took Sword protection: "Father, if I don't return to Luoyang this time, I will regret it for the rest of my life! In your eyes, Liu Hong is your majesty, even a faint king, but he is my good brother, the monarch I swear to be loyal to all my life, I will never let him die alone in Luoyang!"

As soon as Cao Cao's stubborn temper came up, ten cows could not pull him back. Cao Song watched helplessly as he arranged the affairs of Yanzhou and entrusted the few civil servants and generals under his command to go there alone with a sword and a horse. Luo Yang rushed over.
