Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

Seeing Liu Xie turn around and leave, Cao Cao raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said in his heart, "The Son of Heaven really is living more and more openly..."

The next day, Simpi came to Cao Cao again to inquire about sending troops to Jizhou.

Unexpectedly, the attendant who had been waiting in the prime minister's residence for a long time suddenly took out the edict and said, "Your Majesty's edict!"

Simpi was stunned by the sudden change, and it was Lao Cao who gave him a wink, and then Xinpi came back to his senses, "Chen Xinpi, listen to the order!"

"I've heard for a long time that Simpi is talented. Now that the traitor Yuan Shao has died, I really can't bear to be buried here after being loyal... I want Simpi to be Yilang and lead the servant!"

Simpi feels a little unreal...

I was originally just a small Changshi, and suddenly I became Yilang and the chief servant, and became the close minister of the emperor... Life's ups and downs are too fast, it is really too exciting.

After kneeling and saluting, Xinpi said loudly: "Chen Xinpi, thank you, Your Majesty!"

After the attendants sent by the emperor left, Xin Pi was still in a daze holding the imperial edict.

Cao Cao kept Simpi as he wished, and he was naturally in a good mood: "Congratulations, George!"

Xin Pi stared at Cao Cao with a wry smile, and naturally knew that Cao Cao must be noble.

But he finally sighed deeply, and asked instead: "Now is the once-in-a-lifetime time to attack Jizhou, and I hope the Prime Minister can make a decision as soon as possible!"

"Don't worry, George. I have arranged for Zhang Wenyuan and Wei Wenchang. They will lead eight thousand fine riders back to Jizhou to secretly help Yuan Tan with Mr. Sui."

Cao Cao continued: "At the same time, I will send troops to Jizhou in mid-April. At that time, Yuan Tan will need to worry more about Mr. George and Mr. Zhongzhi."

When Xin Pi heard this, the big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground, and he cupped his hands and said, "Prime Minister is wise! I will do my best!"

Chapter 3 and Six

In the sixth year of Jian'an, in February, there was a severe cold.

An elite cavalry detour from Jibei Kingdom into Pingyuan County under Lu Bu's control, and they will use Pingyuan to enter Qinghe County controlled by Yuan Tan.

This cavalry is led by Zhang Liao and Wei Yan is the deputy general, and both of them are famous generals with both wisdom and courage.

Lu Bu was captured by Lu Yan after he broke up with Lu Bu. Zhang Liao defected to Cao Cao under Lu Yan's persuasion.Cao Cao cherished Zhang Liao's talent very much and gave him many opportunities to perform meritorious deeds. Cao Cao even took Zhang Liao with him when he attacked Wuchao.

Every time, Zhang Liao has never failed Cao Cao's trust, and now Zhang Liao has accumulated meritorious service and has been promoted to a backbone general.

Zhang Liao's repeated military exploits have long been famous all over the world, but Wei Yan is just showing his talents, so there is no problem between the two of them who disagrees with the other.

However, since he set foot on the land of Pingyuan County, Zhang Liao has been taciturn, and it seems that he has lost his mind more often.

A thoughtful person like Wei Yan, after a little thought, understood the reason for Zhang Liao's state, "Zhang Liao is Lv Bu's old general, and I heard that he was captured by Lu Hussars in order to replace Lv Bu.

Now that he and Lu Bu have the chance to meet again, I really don't know if there will be some accidents..."

Zhang Liao and Wei Yan moved forward with their own minds, and Simpi, as the referrer, naturally had to follow the army.

Simpi obviously also noticed Zhang Liao's abnormality, and he also knew the relationship between Zhang Liao and Lu Bu.

In order to maintain confidentiality, Zhang Liao's army will use Pingyuan County controlled by Lu Bu.No way, Cao Cao chose Zhang Liao as the main general, so they had to follow the planned route.

The army came outside Pingyuan County, where they would take a short rest and replenish their supplies, and then they would go straight to Gaotang in Qinghe County, and finally arrive at Qinghe.

It was already evening when they arrived at Pingyuan County.

Before the army's tents were set up, suddenly a dozen or so cavalrymen in the city quickly arrived outside Zhang Liao's barracks.

"Zhang Wenyuan! Come out!"

"Zhang Liao! Get out!"

"Come out Zhang Liao, grandpa, I want to fight you for [-] rounds!!!"

This group of cavalry stopped outside the camp, calling Zhang Liao out of the camp by name, and some even clamored to single out Zhang Liao.

"General Zhang, why don't you go and send them away?" Wei Yan listened to the clamor outside, his half-closed eyes gleaming.

Zhang Liao held down Wei Yan who wanted to go out, and said, "Don't worry, Chief Wen, I will deal with them myself."

After speaking, Zhang Liao lifted his crescent halberd and rode out of the camp on his horse.

Wei Yan was still worried about following Zhang Liao out of the camp. After all, he and the others had important responsibilities, so there was no room for any mistakes in the middle of the journey.

Seeing Zhang Liao coming out, Song Xian immediately rushed forward with his saber in hand, "Zhang Liao! Look at the saber!"

Zhang Liao and Song Xian have been comrades-in-arms for many years. The relationship at the beginning cannot be said to be very deep, but at least there is still friendship.

Now when old friends meet, Zhang Liao still feels a little uncomfortable when the other party slashes without saying a word.

Song Xian's horse was extremely fast and his expression was fierce.

Zhang Liao was expressionless, and waited until Song Xian's sword was about to fall on his shoulder, and then he suddenly exerted force, and the long halberd swept away Song Xian's sword.

Song Xian's broadsword was hit by the halberd at the point of impact, and his arm shook suddenly, and the long knife almost flew out of his hand.

Song Xian and Zhang Liao made a move, and after suffering a dark loss, they put their horses back and stood up: "Good guy! I haven't seen you for a few years, and your military strength has increased so much?"

Before Zhang Liao could talk to him, two more people rushed out from behind Song Xian,

"Zhang Wenyuan! Wei Xu (Zang Ba) came to ask for advice!"

Even though the two generals came out together, and Wei Xu Zangba was known for his bravery, Zhang Liao was still happy and fearless when facing them.

Over the years, as one of the generals who were friendly to Lu Yan, Zhang Liao did not eat less of Dali Wan, and also practiced Lu Yan's innate skills.

Moreover, Zhang Liao often competed with Zhao Yun, Tai Shici, Huang Zhong and others in martial arts, and his martial courage naturally became stronger.

Today's Zhang Liao has the power to fight even against Lu Bu, let alone Wei Xu and Zang Ba, who are only quasi-first-class masters in front of him.

Wei Xu and Zang Ba attacked from both sides, Zhang Liao calmly and calmly saw each move.

The two sides seem to be evenly matched, but an insider can tell at a glance that Wei Xu and Zang Ba have already given their all, while Zhang Liao still has spare strength.

"Bah!" Song Xian spat on the ground and said, "Although it's unethical to do so, this guy doesn't seem to be doing his best yet..."

"Old Wei Lao Zang, let me help you!"

Before Song Xian could finish speaking, a thick and deep voice suddenly came out: "Don't you feel ashamed enough? Get back!"

Hearing this voice, not only Song Xian, Zang Ba, and Wei Xu all retreated immediately, but even Zhang Liao couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and slowly put away the crescent halberd.

The visitor wears a purple gold crown with three prongs on his head, a Xichuan red cotton hundred flower robe on his body, a chain armor with a beast face swallowing his head, and an exquisite lion belt with armor around his waist. !

Zhang Liao took a closer look, and saw that Lu Bu hadn't changed at all except for a few wrinkles on his face. Although his aura had lost a bit of arrogance, it became more restrained and solid.

Seeing Lu Bu coming, Wei Yan also led a hundred or so cavalry behind Zhang Liao. There was no way, Lu Bu's coercion was too terrifying.

Zhang Liao nodded slightly to Wei Yan, indicating not to be too nervous.

Afterwards, Zhang Liao stepped forward on his horse, clasped his fists and said, "Zhang Wenyuan, I met Marquis Wen!"

Lu Bu stared at Zhang Liao for a few breaths, and just when Wei Yan thought that Lu Bu would strike if he disagreed with him, Lu Bu said, "That's right, your progress has even exceeded my expectations."

"?" Wei Yan and Zhang Liao were confused by Lu Bu's sudden compliment.

"It seems that Lu Yan is really good at cultivating talents." Lu Bu continued.

When they heard about Lu Yan's cultivation of talents, Wei Yan and Zhang Liao couldn't help but shuddered, and thought: "If copying books can be considered as a method of cultivation, then Lu Hussar's method of cultivating talents is really terrible, even inferior to others. called horror..."

Although the two of them have not been asked by Lu Yan to copy books, they have seen Xia Houlan, Tai Shici, Lu Lingqi and others copy books to death...

Lu Bu's observation was so keen, he could clearly see Wei Yan and Zhang Liao's fleeting trembling.

Lu Bu was shocked in his heart and said: "When they mentioned Lu Yan's training methods, they actually showed a frightened look?! It seems that Lu Yan trained them very harshly at the beginning!"

Thinking of this, Lu Bu couldn't help but glanced back at the generals behind him, and thought, "It seems that I will have stricter requirements on them in the future."

Song Xian and the others, who didn't know that they would be in trouble after returning, suddenly shouted: "Zhang Liao, Marquis Wen said that you have made great progress in martial arts, and our brothers refused to accept it, so we came here to challenge you! "

Wei Xu also continued at this time: "Your progress is indeed very great. After the comparison, we are convinced!"

Is that so?

Wei Yan felt relieved, but Zhang Liao couldn't laugh or cry.

If you want to learn from each other, you should have said it earlier, making them like enemies of life and death, what kind of trouble are you trying to make?

Chapter 3 and Seven Stud!

The purpose of Lu Bu's visit is already very clear.

Wei Yan and Xin Pi couldn't help secretly heaving a sigh of relief, "It's a good thing that the worst that was expected didn't happen."

Not only did Lu Bu not embarrass Zhang Liao, but he also specially hosted a banquet for Zhang Liao, Wei Yan, Simpi and others, and also took out the Erguotou that Lu Yan had given him, which he had been reluctant to drink.

During the banquet, Lu Bula said a lot to Zhang Liao, including regret for his ignorance and arrogance, longing for Gao Shun and guilt for Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao was very pleased with Lu Bu's maturity and change. If Lu Bu had been so sensible back then, how could Gao Shun have died in battle, and how could Zhang Liao have voted for Cao Cao...

"Unfortunately, we can't go back." Zhang Liao sighed, and together with Wei Xu and others helped Lu Bu, who was drunk, back to his room.

Under the order of Lu Bu, the quartermaster of Pingyuan County gave Zhang Liao enough supplies.

The next day, Zhang Liao led the army all the way west with high spirits and fighting spirit.

......

Although it is still cold in Jizhou in February, there is no snow anymore.

The soldiers wore iron armor and cotton coats, so there was no problem in keeping warm.

At the beginning of March, the cavalry team arrived at the border of Qinghe County. In order to avoid being discovered by Yuan Shang's spies, all the armor of Cao Jun had to be replaced with the standard armor of Yuan Shao's cavalry.

"Damn, what kind of defense can this leather armor have with a few pieces of broken iron?" A soldier started to complain while holding Yuan Jun's armor.

"That's not true, wearing this armor, I don't know what to do on the battlefield..."

"Now you know how good the general prison is, right? Only the general prison founded by Lu Hussar can produce armor of our level!"

"Oh... I don't want to change the armor..."

But complaints are nothing but complaints, and the soldiers put on Yuan Jun's armor as quickly as possible.

"Cao's army is well-armored and its soldiers are well-trained. It is worthy of being the most powerful army in the world!" Xin Pi followed Zhang Liao to patrol the ranks. He also heard the conversations of these sergeants, and his confidence in Cao Cao's unification of the world was even stronger in his heart. up.

After changing the camouflage, the cavalry team set off again.

Five days later, the cavalry team arrived at Qinghe, and Yuan Tan went out to greet them in person.

Since entering Qinghe County, the nominal commander of this cavalry has become Simpi. In front of outsiders, Zhang Liao and Wei Yan have to obey Simpi's command.

Yuan Tan received Simpi first, and then Zhang Liao and Wei Yan.

Seeing Cao Jun's strong soldiers and horses, he was envious, and he became more confident in fighting Yuan Shang in his heart.

Jian'an six years, April.

Hongnong Cao Jun took Zhong Yao as the commander, Zhang Xiu and Ma Chao as the vanguard, and opened the prelude to the recovery of Hedong County.

Cao Jun's soldiers were sharp, and Gao Gan and Hu Chuquan were hard to resist. They retreated from Dayang, and they didn't stand firm until they retreated to Jiang County.

Just when Yuan's forces in Hedong were suppressed, Yuan Tan suddenly sent an army of [-] to raid Yecheng.

Yuan Shang obviously didn't expect that Yuan Tan, who was trapped in a corner, would dare to attack him on his own initiative. Frustrated, he mobilized all the heavy troops of Wei County and Yuan Tan's army to launch a decisive battle under the city of Ye.

Yuan Tan's army was defeated by Yuan Shang, the main general died in battle, and the soldiers fled and surrendered.

Even less than half of them were able to return to Qinghe County in the end.

In order to lure Yuan Shang to attack, Yuan Tan can be said to have spent all his money, and the [-] soldiers were almost all of his troops.

His foundation is already weak, and now he has lost about [-] soldiers and killed a general... When Yuan Tan heard the news, the corners of Yuan Tan's mouth and eyes were twitching uncontrollably .

Yuan Shang defeated Yuan Tan's army. He, Guo Tu and others decided that Yuan Tan had no spare troops, so they decided to send troops to attack Qinghe County immediately.

In mid-April, Yuan Shangshuai's [-] troops invaded Qinghe County all the way until they besieged Qinghe City.

There are less than [-] defenders in Qinghe City, and all of them have low morale and are sallow and emaciated... It seems that Yuan Tan's defeat is only a matter of time.

Yuan Shang personally led the army and observed the situation in Qinghe County before the battle.

Just when Yuan Shang was thinking about whether to capture Qinghe City and kill Yuan Tan in one go, bad news suddenly came from Ye City.

"Report!!!"

An orderly soldier stumbled and ran to Yuan Tan's horse in a panic, knelt on one knee and said, "Report! General, there is an urgent report from Ye City. Cao Cao sent troops from the white horse and led an army of [-] to invade Jizhou! "

"What did you say!!!" Yuan Shang's eyes were tearing apart, and a rush of blood rushed straight to his forehead.

At this juncture, Cao Cao actually sent troops!
