Under the premise of not knowing anything, rashly inviting Mr. Zhao to go back to Yanzhou with him, the success rate is very low, and it may even cause him to avoid him. Cao Cao's little hoe is just around the corner. The way to dig up cabbage without hurting it is of course to dig up the cabbage root together.

When Zhao Yun heard that it was Cao Ang who wanted to learn from him, he couldn't help laughing: "I'm afraid that's impossible. I will leave here and go back to my hometown soon."

"Where is Mr. Zhao's hometown? It's full of soldiers and horses. I'm afraid the road is not peaceful."

The blacksmith was a bearded Han man who met Zhao Yun. Seeing that they seemed to be chatting, he offered tables and chairs. He went to the side alone and rubbed Zhao Yun's iron gun.

"Zhao is from Changshan Zhending. When he returns home, he intends to escape from the world and live in seclusion for a while. It is chaotic outside, so he will come out when there is more peace," Zhao Yun's answer made Cao Cao feel sad.

The best cavalry generals don't play an effective role on the battlefield, but live in seclusion, simply reckless.

"Your marksmanship is so good, why don't you choose to join the army to make a career?"

Zhao Yun shook his head, unwilling to talk about the past, he brought back the topic: "Aang's foot is solid, his basic skills are solid, and he is proficient in swordsmanship. He wants to learn spearmanship, but he always uses the sword unconsciously. When it comes to gun moves, it becomes a four-faced image."

"This is also because there is no good spear master to teach him. The child can only explore by himself. I am good at using sword skills. The only things I can teach him are sword skills and riding skills."

Even with bows and arrows, Cao Cao is powerful, but not accurate. He never brings bows and arrows to the battlefield to embarrass others. Big, accurate and accurate, as long as it is the person he aims at, it is a life that is easily taken a hundred steps away!

"I heard from Ang that you are leaving soon, so I guess you are here with Cao Jun," Zhao Yun said calmly, "Ang's temperament is sympathetic to me, and I welcome you if you want to learn spear skills from me. That's all. Your son is so outstanding, it is definitely not something that ordinary people would cultivate. From this, Zhao Yun guessed that you may have some status in Cao Jun, so there is no need to recruit, it is best to meet by chance, and you can spend the next few days Then come and learn, when Cao Jun pulls out his battalion, it is time for us to part ways."

Zhao Yun is smart and upright, and he speaks out when he sees through it, and tells the matter on the bright side, never hiding it.

It was this kind of wisdom that made Cao Cao even more reluctant to let him slip away like this.

On the surface, he was upright and resolute, and spoke straightforwardly and cheerfully, but Cao Cao went around with him for a long time, and then returned to the original place.It looks square on the outside, but smooth like a loach on the inside.

"Then you don't agree to the apprenticeship?"

Cao Cao felt that Zhao Yun was playing Tai Chi with him on purpose, and Zhao Yun looked back with innocence in his eyes: "I haven't learned the art for ten or a half years, and I am immature. Are you willing to let Ang follow me back to my hometown?"

Cao Ang looked left and right, and obediently kept silent, just looking at Zhao Yun's small eyes eagerly, admiring and admiring this master.

Cao Cao: "..."

I didn't dig up the Chinese cabbage, and almost lost the small cabbage I planted, which was too much for the gain.

Zhao Yun felt that Cao Cao had been dealt with, and exchanged names with him: "Zhao Yun, your name is Zilong, I still don't know how to call you?"

Cao Cao couldn't pry the corner of the wall, couldn't put the hoe down, and said listlessly, "Just call me Meng De."

When Cao Ang dated Zhao Yun, he only called him "Ang", and Cao Cao didn't want to reveal his name. The father and son concealed it tacitly, which caused a sneer from the blacksmith: "If you don't even want to reveal your name, how can you be considered a sincere friend? "

Cao Cao turned a deaf ear to this, his skin was as thick as a city wall, and the craftsman's ridicule did not cause any harm at all, but Cao Ang was thin-skinned and looked a little uncomfortable.

Zhao Yun is broad-minded and doesn't care about these things. If you don't want to disclose it, then you don't want to disclose it. It is easiest to meet each other by chance, and to keep a distance between gentlemen.

"It's getting late, we don't have much time, every hour is worth cherishing, why don't you follow me to the courtyard to practice marksmanship."

After saying hello, Zhao Yun took Cao Ang away. Cao Cao sat in the blacksmith's shop thinking about life, but couldn't think of a way, so he went to his counselors for help.

He talked to Cao Ang, then rushed back, met Chen Gong first, and asked him: "I have taken a fancy to a resourceful general, and I want to recruit him to do things. How should I recruit him?"

Chen Gong replied with a smile: "My lord recruits people by relying on his own fame, wealth and status. What kind of benefits you can promise him and how many chances he will have to be promoted in the future are what most generals want to know. It is also the basis for you to recruit talents for your own use."

"But he is not an ordinary person, and he seems to be someone who cares about fame and fortune." Cao Cao said troubledly.

Cao Cao went to ask Guo Jia again, Guo Jia was leaning on the recliner, basking in the sun leisurely, with a jug of wine on the stone table, looking very comfortable.

When there is no fighting, he is a lazy bone, lying still, and only getting up and sitting up when Cao Cao comes over.

Cao Cao asked Guo Jia again: "I like a good general who doesn't care about fame and fortune. How can Feng Xiao know how to recruit him into my command?"

"I don't care about fame and fortune but let an excellent general fall in love with me. Isn't that the relationship between Guan Yu and Liu Bei?" Guo Jia yawned and pointed out: "Guan Yu and Liu Bei are sworn brothers. As close as you are to General Xiahou, such generals are hard to come by, and they rely on a sincere heart in exchange for a sincere heart. People who don’t care about fame and fortune will definitely care about more noble things. You talk about ideals with him, talk about The wish may come true."

Don't care about the real thing, then the only thing that is more noble than the real thing is the spiritual level.

Cao Cao showed a tangled expression: "Should I talk to him about my ideals now? Then he will think I'm mentally ill."

A sly light flashed in Guo Jia's eyes, and he asked Cao Cao enthusiastically, "What kind of general is it that makes the lord scratch his head and want to abduct him home?"

Cao Cao glanced at him: "What do you mean by scratching your ears and scratching your cheeks? Why am I scratching my ears and scratching my cheeks!"

"The hoe in your hand is almost up to the sky, and you still scratch your head! There are many generals in your army. The generals of the Cao family and the generals of the Xiahou family are all excellent generals. Take care of you, let all the outstanding generals be born in your family and become your brothers, why don't you look at how many treasures you have in your family, and think about digging wild flowers outside!"

Guo Jia accused Cao Cao of being playful, but he leaned over honestly and whispered, "Who caught the Lord's attention? Is that person in this city? Why don't I come to serve as the Lord's staff?"

Guo Jia's rambunctious words were a wake-up call to Cao Cao. He couldn't just treat the men from the Cao family and Xiahou's family as brothers just because they were his brothers. The wild flowers and the grass at home are equal to each other in a bowl of water.

Cao Cao then told Guo Jia about Zhao Yun. On the battlefield, he had seen this man who could resist the joint attack of him and Lu Bu by himself and retreated completely. Can kill him before he can be used by someone else.

After hearing this, Guo Jia laughed mysteriously: "My lord, don't you know?"

Cao Cao asked in confusion, "I don't know what?"

Guo Jia patted his chest and promised Cao Cao: "Don't worry, my lord, I will handle this matter! You give me two days, and I have a way to take him down for you."

After finishing speaking, Guo Jia cheerfully took away his folding fan, dressed neatly, and went out.

Cao Cao turned his head to look at his back as he staggered away, feeling skeptical about Guo Jia in his heart, always feeling that he was unreliable.

Two days later, Guo Jia returned smoothly and told Cao Cao the good news that Zhao Yun had agreed to go back to Yanzhou with them.

Cao Cao was overjoyed, and asked the reason, Guo Jia replied confidently: "My lord managed a good livelihood for the people in Yanzhou a few years ago. Common people, this matter seems superfluous to others, but it is the biggest reason that attracts an upright person like him."

Cao Cao still didn't believe it. If Zhao Yun was willing to agree to solicit, he would not have expressed his refusal attitude at the beginning.

Guo Jia said again: "The main character has an attractive foundation, and then you need other flowers to wrap a bag. Considering Zhao Yun's character, if you talk with him, saying that empty ambitions and ideals are unrealistic, then proceed from reality. In his hometown, there is an elder brother who is weak and sick. He is a literati. Before he took the leaders of his hometown to Gongsun Zan, he had the idea of ​​making meritorious deeds. He did not go to Yuan Shao. The combination of aristocratic families is also due to his own humble background."

Guo Jia's analysis was straightforward, and Cao Cao was stunned when he heard it.

"It's a pity that when Gongsun Zan recruits people, he also pays attention to a person's background and reputation. He was born in the Gongsun family, the largest clan in Youzhou, but his biological mother was of a low status. He accepted too much injustice since he was a child. He also has strong self-esteem, and has an extraordinary attachment to a noble life experience. My lord, you can imagine this mentality, the feeling of encountering injustice when you were young, and making people who once looked up to you bow down to yourself after taking power."

Cao Cao was dumbfounded, pointing at him speechless: "You, how do you know everything?!"

Guo Jia blinked: "Before I went to Jizhou to play, I also went to Youzhou to play. Gongsun Zan is sick. The field measurement must be square and square, and the size is not bad. The subordinate officials must be tall and short. Oh, even Yi Congjun They must all be horses of the same color."

Forced and paranoid, obviously not the attitude of a wise master, Guo Jia resolutely abandoned Gongsun Zan, went to Jizhou to find Yuan Shao, and spent some time under Yuan Shao's command before coming to Cao Cao's command. After this, he will not leave up.

Cao Cao's greatest strength is that he can seek common ground while reserving differences, walk with people who are compatible, recruit people with different ideas for my use, and tolerate with a broad mind.He has no prominent family, no reputation among scholars in the world, let alone a wealth of wealth. Most scholars go to princes with reputation, status, and family.

The people who come to Cao Cao are few but loyal. They are willing to stay here and fight together with the "poor lord". Compared with other princes, this is the fundamental reason why Guo Jia is optimistic about Cao Cao and is loyal to him.

Does Cao Cao have any shortcomings?Yes, but those tiny flaws are all overshadowed by his shining advantages.

"Let's go on to talk about Zhao Yun. He is a big man, and he still has ambitions in his heart. He has no way out, and he went back to his hometown to live in seclusion. It was also because of his shoulder injury, and he went back to his hometown to take care of his sick brother. Both of them are still alive. I don’t have a wife yet, how difficult it is to marry a wife these days!” Guo Jia began to talk coquettishly, winking and hinting at Cao Cao: “I told him that there are many hard-working girls waiting to be married here in Yanzhou. , marriage is also included, as long as they are talented and educated, both brothers can have the opportunity to become officials, Wen Neng can write a pen to participate in politics, and Wu Neng can wield a sword to fight on the battlefield. It is a man's pursuit to start a family, look at Lu Bu..."

Guo Jia stretched out his hand and murmured: "There are wives and children at home. They intimidate the world on the battlefield. They are radiant all day long. The next step is to leave a name in history and have many descendants. Do you think he still wants to rebel against you now? "

The biggest weakness of the family is in Yanzhou. It is no wonder that Lu Bu would rebel. When he was displaced, he took the cicada with him everywhere, and now he will not abandon his wife and son.

Cao Cao was thoughtful and seemed to have realized something. He came back to his senses and grabbed Guo Jia by the collar: "You told Zhao Yun that I would come here with food, accommodation and marriage?!"

Guo Jia raised his hand as a gesture, and then turned around again: "I told him that my lord's recruitment of talents only depends on personal ability, not on the status of the family. He can also recruit his elder brother. We still have good doctors in Yanzhou. If he follows the lord , The doctor’s money can still be deducted from the salary.”

Cao Cao blurted out: "I believe in you!"

Guo Jia stopped talking, just looked sideways at Cao Cao, and signaled: So do you want to recruit him?

Recruit, that must be recruited!His hoe is sticking out!

"My lord, are you tired?" Seeing him working hard on tiptoes, Guo Jia asked with concern, thinking to pass Cao Cao a stool.

Cao Cao let go of him, turned around and left.

Guo Jia said sadly: "Do you blame me for doing good deeds?"

A pair of hands rested on Guo Jia's shoulders without a sound, and he was so excited that he turned his head to look, and saw Chen Gong standing behind him like a ghost with a dark face, and his voice was also erratic. Like a dead soul asking for his life: "Guo Fengxiao, you are molesting the lord again."

"No way, I'm here to solve problems for the lord, you can't wrong my integrity!"

It is too difficult for a person with bad deeds to be whitewashed. The upright Chen Gong has his eye on Guo Jia. Whenever he wants to relax, sleep lazily, or drink and have fun, Chen Gong will always appear around him , Kindly handed him the official document and invited him to work together.

With Guo Jia's operation, Cao Ang happily brought Zhao Yun back, and went straight to Cao Cao's study. His tone of voice was happy, and the excitement in his voice was almost overflowing.

"Father, father, Mr. Zhao agreed to go back to Yanzhou with us. It was the military adviser who convinced Mr. Zhao!"

Cao Ang originally thought that Guo Junshi, who always liked to be lazy and drink, was useless. He was fooling around all day and didn’t know why his father favored him. Now that he really saw how powerful Guo Jia’s mouth is, Cao Ang only felt that Guo Jia’s whole person was unfathomable. .

Zhao Yun agreed to join Guo Jia in Cao Ying. He thought that Guo Jia would introduce him to meet the new lord. Who would have thought that the literati who persuaded him turned around and disappeared. He thought that Aang's father was also an official in Cao Ying, so he asked Cao Ang.

Cao Ang rolled his eyes with a smile, turned his head and slipped his mouth: "It would be best if the military adviser persuaded Mr., I will take you to see your father right away."

He brought Zhao Yun to Cao Cao, and explained to him the reason why they concealed his name: "Actually, the lord that the military adviser said is the father, and my husband has met him before. You rejected him, which made him very sad."

When Cao Cao heard it, his face was a little bit troubled: why is he sad? Where is he sad? !Will he be sad? !If you can't recruit people, you will kill them, how simple it is!

Seeing Cao Cao on the main seat, Zhao Yun's eyes drifted strangely for a moment. He didn't expect that A Ang's father would be his future lord!

Gongsun Zan has a majestic appearance, Yuan Shao is handsome and tall, and Cao Cao's appearance is a bit embarrassing for the historian. In the end, the two characters "cute" are written in Zhubi, which is explained in the language of the time, which means "respectable and lovable", and passed down to the eyes of later generations. It has become a historical record that Cao Cao has a lovely face.

He is as handsome as a boy, and he is different from all the princes in Zhao Yun's impression. The comforting thing is that Cao Cao will not accept their allegiance and refuge condescendingly like Gongsun Zan, but will stand up and grab his hand , and kindly called: "Zilong please get up, you are finally here!"

With regard to the attitude of the virtuous corporal accepting newcomers, who can compare to Cao Cao's enthusiasm?Looking at Zhao Yun's blank eyes for a moment, he was obviously confused by the sudden enthusiasm.

In the early days, every outstanding talent under Cao Cao's command who came to join him felt this kind of warm reception. Chen Gong, Xun Yu, Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia, and even Lu Bu's hand were touched by him, and he preemptively broke the deadlock. The clever ghost Cao Cao came up with a good idea.

When others are confused, he has the upper hand and can do whatever he wants!

Zhao Yun had never seen such a battle before, and he was stunned for a long time before he realized it.

After meeting the lord, it was time to make arrangements for the newcomer. Zhao Yun wanted to go back to his hometown to pick up his elder brother, and then go to Yanzhou to find Cao Cao.

Zhao Yun was a little embarrassed when he said this, and explained a little more: "Although my brother is from a poor family, he knows a lot of knowledge. Bad people."

"There is no need to explain, you can go at ease," Cao Cao said boldly: "A gentleman is hard to chase after a word, but Zilong is a person who keeps his promises. A Ang believes in you, and I believe in you. Of course, I am not afraid that you will never come back. , we will start a war with Gongsun Zan next, your status is embarrassing, and it is not convenient for you to participate in this matter, why don't you go back to your hometown first, we have agreed to meet you in Yanzhou in the future."

Put a long line to catch big fish, let the birds fly, and the birds will fly back by themselves.

Zhao Yun continued: "Before General Gongsun left, he abandoned some of the officials in the city, together with Yi Cong nearly [-] wounded soldiers, many of them were fellow countrymen who went to General Gongsun with his subordinates. When his subordinates practiced martial arts, they also Following the training, they are a group of experts in marksmanship, with first-rate equestrian skills, fearless of life and death, and fighting bravely. I heard that the lord wants to recruit cavalry talents who understand spear skills, so I want to recommend this group of people to the lord, but they are all wounded. We won't be able to fight in the near future."

Judging from what Zhao Yun revealed, they were abandoned by Gongsun Zan as abandoned sons. When Cao Cao heard this, he immediately ordered people to gather the thirty wounded soldiers. Some of them were only slightly injured. For the heavier ones like Zhao Yun, the shoulder was stabbed, and the bone was visible in the injury. The military doctor took medicine, bandaged it properly, raised it up, and after a month or so, he will be a hero who can go to the battlefield again!

Cao Cao was very happy picking up the mistakes. Gongsun Zan didn't care how much the people of humble background lost, but he took the opportunity to take them for his own use.

When the two armies are fighting on the battlefield, it is popular to let the generals with a voice like Hong Zhong shout out in front of the battle. Cao Cao has a loud voice under Lu Bu, and Gongsun Zan is not to be outdone, and scolds Cao Cao: "Cao Cao is just a eunuch who followed my ass to pick up money." Tattered!"

Cao Cao yelled back to him from the air: "I am also the descendant of one of the three masters, unlike you who gained power and forgot how humble you were once. The rags I most want to pick up are you, Gongsun Zan!"

In ten days, Yuan Shao attacked the location agreed with Cao Cao, stationed troops and set up camp, waving the flag as faith.

Yuan and Cao's two armies moved northward from the southwest, and in less than half a month, they had already taken all the Bohai counties where Gongsun Zan was located.

Yuan Shao wanted to continue the pursuit, but Cao Cao planned to beat the drums and retreat.

Jizhou counselors and generals were quite dissatisfied with this.

"Cao Cao is definitely unwilling to help you to the end. Using Yuan Shu as an excuse, he intends to keep Gongsun Zan to wear down your strength and hinder your plan to join the north."

"Since the lord has taken back the two counties of Jizhou, Cao Cao is useless. Why don't we just stop the food and grass supply and see if he will continue to help the lord attack Youzhou!"

The subordinates came up with ideas for Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao himself was also suspicious: "It's true that I haven't heard the news of Gonglu attacking Meng De. Everything is said by Meng De's family. Could it be that he lied to me?"

Gongsun Zan was beaten, and Yuan Shu, who was allied with him, was in a hurry. Yuzhou, where he was located, was plowing in the spring. His subordinate officials suggested that it was not easy to raise troops at this time. In order to save Gongsun Zan, Yuan Shu came up with a bad idea. He wrote a letter of war to Cao Cao, threatening His purpose was to force Cao Cao to withdraw his troops and return home.

The letter of war was delivered by an urgent courier from eight hundred miles away. Several horses were killed in a row, and it was delivered to Cao Cao when Gongsun Zan was beaten back to Youzhou.

The war book was written in cursive characters that he was familiar with. When Yuan Shu was studying, he didn't study Ci Fu carefully, and the words he expressed were plain and naive.

Cao Cao looked at the sky in silence, and muttered to himself: "Could it be that I am really the chosen one?" Otherwise, why did Gonglu bring him a pillow when he fell asleep?

He sent someone to send the letter of war to Yuan Shaona to prove it to him.

Yuan Shu: Yuan Shao and I have fallen out. Gongsun Zan is my ally. If you help him, you are against me. Now I will beat you!If you still think of me as your old good brother, don't help Yuan Shao anymore!

The younger brother's scrambling is very recognizable. Yuan Shao saw at a glance that it was written by Yuan Shu himself. He laughed angrily and tore up the gauntlet: "I am Meng De's good brother. He Yuan Gonglu What is it!"

Yuan Shao's counselors exchanged a few subtle glances one after another, creating a strange atmosphere.
