Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 60 Xianyuan is here!

Lu Yan followed Jia Xu's gaze and found him,

Although Jia Xu was astonished in his heart, his face was calm and composed, and he even bowed his hands to Lu Yan.

Lu Yan smiled slightly, and surprised Jia Xu to return the salute. This attitude won Jia Xu a lot of goodwill.

Cao Cao was not completely relieved of Zhang Xiu, otherwise he would not have left Zhang Liao and Li Tong in Wancheng, but had brought Zhang Xiu and his soldiers back to Xuchang.

Zhang Xiu is indeed talented as a general.

With Boss Cao's heart, he dared to use Zhang Xiu, and he could use it.

But Cao Cao is quite suspicious, so he will be careful while using it.

But for Zhang Xiu, as long as he sincerely surrenders, there will be no abnormal behavior, and it doesn't make much difference whether he is on guard or not.

As long as you treat people with sincerity, one day you will welcome the sincerity of others.

After returning to Xuchang, the first thing Cao Cao had to do was to show his merits to the court.

Although there was no battle in Wancheng's line, the final result ended with Cao Jun winning.

The emperor gave the cao army generals who went on the expedition rewards matching their respective contributions.

Of course, these credits were reported by Cao Cao himself...

Wancheng has been pacified,

Cao Cao's focus turned to the places he had always cared about the most, namely Xuzhou in the east and Yuzhou in the south.

......

In the first year of Jian'an, it was an eventful autumn, and various wars continued one after another.

In the north, Yuan Shao's forces besieged Gongsun Zan in Yijinglou. One hundred thousand troops attacked in turn. Gongsun Zan had no reinforcements outside, so he had to rely on fortifications to hold on, exhausted.

Thinking about it, Gongsun Zan's defeat was only a matter of time.

In the west, Li Jue and Guo Si who occupied Chang'an, after the defeat in Luoyang, various contradictions appeared within them.

Many people under the command of Li Jue and Guo Si experienced the chaos in Chang'an, the Huns going south, and the defeat in Luoyang.

I have completely lost confidence in the two of them, so I walked away.

At the same time, when Cao Cao sent troops to attack Zhang Xiu, he suggested that the emperor issue an edict calling on the princes of Kansai to attack Li Jue and Guo Si.

The Son of Heaven had hated Li and Guo for a long time, and immediately issued an edict to the princes of Kansai without hesitation, calling on all the princes and generals of Kansai to send troops to attack the traitors Li Jue and Guo Si!

Since Ma Teng, governor of Xiliang, became General Fubo, he has always taken it as his duty to help the Han Dynasty.

After receiving the emperor's edict, he sent his son Ma Chao to Chang'an to attack Li and Guo without saying a word!

In addition to Xiliang Ma Chao, Duan Yao and others in Kansai also responded by sending troops.

For a while, Li Jue and Guo Si fell into a great panic.

Guo Bang was killed by his own general Wu Xi in a panic, and Li Jue took the opportunity to annex Guo Bang's remaining power, but in the end he could only defend Chang'an, a corner of peace.

Liu Biao of Jingzhou was extremely annoyed by Zhang Xiu's surrender and the loss of Wancheng.

But on the surface, Cao Cao was seeking thieves under the order, which is reasonable and reasonable.

As a member of the royal family, Liu Biao, although angry in his heart, could only garrison troops on the border, and the meaning of defense was more than offense.

Not to mention the southeast direction, at this moment Liu Bei and Yuan Shu reckoned that they had already knocked out the dog's brains.

Cao Cao decided not to intervene and wait and see what happened, and let the two of them have more in-depth exchanges.

In Jiangdong, after the little overlord Sun Ce captured Wu County, his prestige gradually increased, and the six counties of Jiangdong finally fell into his hands completely.

......

The outside world is wonderful!

But at this moment, Lu Yan has no time to pay attention to the changes outside.

You know, he has been so busy recently that he has grown a white hair!

terrible!

The workload lately has been horrendous!

The main reason is that the new paper is too powerful.

Even though Chenliu Workshop urgently recruited craftsmen and workers, and worked overtime to produce various papers and print books, the supply of these papers and books was still in short supply, and it was far from enough, far from enough! !

"Sir, the Chamber of Commerce is urging replenishment again... Do you think we should expand the workshop?"

"Longevity, Xuchang, as the capital of the country, cannot stop the supply of books! I think the workshop still needs to be expanded..."

"Changsheng, I already have some clues about the newspaper you mentioned... It's just that there are not enough people, why don't we recruit more people?"

These three sentences are from: Yi Ju, Yang Biao and Mao Jie.

That's right, not only Mao Jie came back, but Yang Biao also came along with him.

Taichang's scope of supervision actually includes cultural education, so Yang Biao's visit to inquire about books is actually not out of bounds.

After Mao Jie was called to Xuchang by Cao Cao, he asked for orders to return to Chenliu to help Lu Yan manage other political affairs.

Even though there are two more government experts, Lu Yan still works overtime every day.

It is conceivable how heavy the workload is today.

"Lack of people... lack of people... or lack of people..." Lu Yan seems to have returned to the early days of his business. Boss Cao only has three or two kittens under his command...

It hurts in the head from these three people, but Lu Yan has to make a decision immediately.

At this moment, Lu Yan was extremely envious of Guo Jia and Dian Wei who were able to go out with Boss Cao for an outing...

Ever since Wancheng experienced a thrilling experience, Cao Cao felt that he still needed a strong bodyguard by his side.

Cao Ang is the heir of the Cao Group, so he can't lose his life just to protect Cao Cao's safety.

At this time, Cao Cao thought of the person Dian Wei had mentioned at the beginning.

Therefore, Cao Cao called Guo Jia, who had the best relationship in private and was relatively free recently, and Dian Wei, the party involved, and the three of them, surrounded by a dozen guards, went out to seek talents while outing... ..

However, just when Lu Yan was tortured by Yang Biao, Mao Jie, and Yi Zai, a small official suddenly rushed outside and handed over his hands outside the hall to report: "Lu Hussar, there are three foreigners outside the city gate. See you!"

"Anyone begging to see you?"

Lu Yan was taken aback when he heard the words, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Let them wait... No! Just take me to see them!"

Without giving Mao Jie, Yang Biao, and Yi any time to react, Lu Yan was no longer seen in the office hall of the Sheriff's Mansion with a "whoosh"... Only the three were left stunned , Looking at each other in blank dismay, looking at each other silently.

After leaving the Sheriff's Mansion, Lu Yan put down the little official who was carrying him. The latter still looked dull and didn't understand what happened just now.

"Tell me, what do those three look like?" Lu Yan's question finally came to his senses, and he hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "It's two strong and powerful men, and there is another one who looks not so good as if he has a serious illness. Sick boy."

"Oh? Kong Wu is powerful, you can go and have a look!"

Actually, the matter of seeking talents is no longer under Lu Yan's jurisdiction, but today's situation is really special...

As the little official came to the gate of the east city, Lu Yan saw three people standing at the entrance of the city gate.

A middle-aged man, a young man, and a young man with a gloomy face.

The middle-aged man is tall and slender, with slender arms and a resolute but vicissitudes on his face.

The young man is also tall and tall, with a face like a jujube and starry eyes. Lu Yan couldn't help but see a bright light: "It's actually somewhat similar to Guan Erge's face."

The juvenile looks quite similar to the middle-aged man, except that he is thin and has been coughing, and his physical condition looks very bad.

While Lu Yan was looking at the three of them carefully, they were also looking at Lu Yan,

"Occasionally there is a flash of light in the eyes, this is a master of the inner family!"

"This person's face is like a crown of jade, his eyes are flying, his brows are stretched, and he walks with a chic demeanor and extraordinary momentum!"

"What a temperamental big brother!"

Chapter 61 Brother Huang Zhong and Wei Yan

The middle-aged and young people have a calm and steady momentum, and there is a faint charm of some military personnel in their gestures and gestures.

Most importantly, Lu Yan has seen through the cultivation of the three of them,

"A super first-class master! A first-class peak master! And a little weak chicken!"

Lu Yan's pupils shrank slightly, and the identities of these three people immediately appeared in his mind, "Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, and Huang Xu!"

Huang Xu is Huang Zhong's short-lived son.

"Ha! Ha! Ha!" Having almost confirmed his identity, Lu Yan couldn't help laughing three times in his heart, "Old Cao, you dare to leave me and go to seek talents by yourself. When you come back, I will let you see what is called Doubly seek talents!"

Huang Zhong brought Huang Xu all the way here, so his thoughts are naturally very clear.To keep Huang Zhong, the key lies in Huang Xu.

Wei Yan was not allowed to be reused in Jingzhou, so it should be easier to keep him.

The sizing between the two sides was just a breath away.

Under the vigilant and doubtful eyes of the other party, Lu Yan clasped his hands and introduced himself and confirmed: "My next Lu Yan, the word is Changsheng, may I ask what are the names of the three strong men?"

Huang Zhong first responded with clasped fists: "My surname is Huang, my name is Zhong, and my style is Han Sheng. The older one is my good brother Wei Yan and Wei Wenchang, and the younger one is the dog Huang Xu."

After Huang Zhong introduced himself, he suddenly felt something was wrong, "Wait...what did he say his name was?"

After recalling it for a while, Huang Zhong was greatly surprised: "He said his name is... Lu... Lu... Lu Yan, Lu Changsheng?"

Huang Zhong was a little unsure, so he turned to look at Wei Yan beside him...

Wei Yan's eyes were wide open, and his face was full of disbelief and shock.

Well, upon seeing Wei Yan's expression, Huang Zhong felt that the guesses in his heart were probably in line with each other.

But in order not to make a joke, Huang Zhong still carefully asked for proof: "Dare to ask, is your Excellency the current Hussar General, Lu Yan and Lu Changsheng?"

Before Lu Yan could answer,

The little official beside him took the first step, and replied quite proudly:

"You man has some knowledge. That's right, it's the current hussar general who came to meet you in person!"

Lu Yan saw that his words were robbed by the guy next to him, and saw that the other party looked like a villain, so he couldn't help but slapped him lightly on the back of the head and said: "Don't be proud, hurry up and tell the eldest lady , tonight I will hold a banquet at the mansion to cleanse the three strong men!"

"That's great!" The little official was not afraid of Lu Yan at all, he ran away with a smile on his face after being slapped.

"Ha! I was slapped by my husband today, and I can blow it in front of my colleagues for a whole year!"

No matter how Lu Yan's official position changes, he still looks approachable on weekdays.

As long as they were officials in Chenliu County who had stayed enough time, they would dare to make harmless jokes with Lu Yan at ordinary times. They were all close to Lu Yan from the bottom of their hearts.

"Ah, this!" Huang Zhong and Wei Yan were stunned by Lu Yan's enthusiasm for a while.

Seeing their doubts, Lu Yan asked, "You two, do you still remember that someone wrote you a letter back then?"

"Believe it?" Huang Zhong was even more puzzled. He had been running around seeking medical advice for his son in the early years, so how could he have the time and energy to answer whether he believed it or not...

But Wei Yan remembered it very clearly, and it was precisely because of this letter that he persuaded him countless times, and finally persuaded Huang Zhong to come to Chen Liu after several years.

Seeing Wei Yan take out a roll of silk from his arms, Huang Zhong asked in surprise: "Oh, there is a letter! Wenchang, what was written in the letter, why didn't I hear you mention it?"

Wei Yan replied with a helpless wry smile: "Brother, I actually mentioned this to you once.

But brother, you were worrying about Xu'er's condition at that time, so you didn't wait for me to finish talking..."

"Oh...hehe..." Huang Zhong scratched his head with an embarrassed smile, and stopped talking.

Without waiting for Lu Yan to ask questions, Wei Yan continued to explain:

"After receiving Lu Hussar's letter, I actually came here intentionally to join him.

But the elder brother ran around because of Xu'er's illness, and there was no one to take care of him at home, so in the end he chose to stay.

I also ask General Hussars to forgive me. "

After finishing speaking, Wei Yan bowed and clasped his fists to ask Lu Yan for forgiveness.

Lu Yan stretched out his hand to support Wei Yan's arm, and said with a smile: "Don't say it so seriously, I just had the mentality of giving it a try."

Hearing this, Wei Yan felt relieved, and then hesitantly asked: "Lu Huqi, Yan has always had a doubt in his heart..."
