Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

"Come here, serve the two young masters a glass of juice!"

"Juice!" Cao Zhi's eyes lit up, he leaned forward and asked, "Sir, is there any orange juice?"

"Yes! And watermelon juice!"

Cao Zhi shouted excitedly: "Ha! Then I'll have a glass of strawberry juice!"

"?" Lu Yan was taken aback by Cao Zhi's words, and thought, "Why doesn't this guy play cards according to common sense?"

Cao Pi felt a little ashamed, but he was his own younger brother after all, so he could only smooth things over and said, "Sir, don't worry about him, just give us a glass of grape juice."

"..."

After the two of them drank the iced grape juice intoxicatedly, Lu Yan asked: "My lords, are you here for the elixir you bought?"

Cao Pi put down more than half of the grape juice he had drunk, and replied, "Yes, sir. We want to ask, can this Qiqiao Qingxin Pill really cure the poison of Xueyan Pill?"

"Of course, the Qiqiao Qingxin Pill can cure all kinds of poisons, there is nothing wrong with it (produced by the system, no one can deceive anyone)."

After receiving Lu Yan's affirmation, Cao Pi felt a little relieved.

After visiting Lu Yan, Cao Pi and Cao Zhi carried a bucket of fruit juice, left Chenliucheng, and headed for Yecheng.

They will truthfully report to Cao Cao what they saw and heard during this trip. As for who Cao Cao will take these two elixirs, that is not something the two of them can worry about.

4Chapter 17 He already has a shadow of Lu Yan

Jizhou, Yecheng, in the study of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Cao Cao was looking at a letter from Tian Chou.

In Tian Chou's letter, he first reported the situation of the counties in Youzhou, and then explained that Lu Bu gradually took over the defense of Youzhou.

Now Lu Bu's military focus has gradually shifted from Qingzhou to Youzhou. After all, there are no hostile forces around Qingzhou.

However, Lu Bu only had troops stationed in Youzhou, Tian Chou's governor of Youzhou would not change, and Chen Gong would be the governor of Qingzhou.

The foundation of Lv Bu is still in Qingzhou. After all, the aristocratic families following him and Chen Gong have already established their roots in Qingzhou, and they are not willing to follow Lv Bu to Youzhou, which is more turbulent near the frontier.It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, let alone these aristocratic families.

So after Lu Bu discussed with Chen Gong, he simply took his subordinates and the army to Youzhou to accept the post of governor of Youzhou, the governor of the six counties of Youzhou.

With Lu Bu's various troops stationed in, the various Cao soldiers who originally guarded Youzhou began to withdraw one after another.In addition to the local defenders, generals such as Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Tai Shici, etc. also began to lead their troops back to the Central Plains.

But the spies sent by Tian Chou sent back news that at the juncture when the armies in various parts of Youzhou were handing over their defenses, the Xianbei clan in the northern grasslands began to move.

Just as Cao Cao was reading the letter, Cao Ang walked in.

Cao Cao looked up at Cao Ang and said, "Sit down..."

"Thanks, father."

After Cao Ang sat down upright, Cao Cao continued: "Tian Chou wrote a letter saying that all the tribes of Xianbei in the northern land of the Great Wall gathered in the central Xianbei territory, and there is a tendency to form an alliance."

Hearing this, Cao Ang frowned, and said, "Ke Bineng, the leader of the Xianbei in the central region, is an ambitious and capable guy... He called the alliance of the heads of the Xianbei tribes, and I am afraid that he has some thoughts about me, a big man."

Listening to Cao Ang's analysis, Cao Cao nodded slightly and said, "Continue."

"Youzhou is in the critical moment of the handover of troops. If the Xianbei alliance succeeds and goes south in a large scale, the house in Youzhou will be in chaos. I'm afraid it will be a little dangerous."

"What can you do to deal with it?" Cao Cao said deliberately.

But Cao Ang said: "Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover!"

"You have been with Lu Yan for so long, and you have learned this?" Cao Cao seemed a little dissatisfied.

"Father, don't worry, just listen to my son's detailed explanation." But Cao Ang explained leisurely: "My son thinks that it would be a good thing for Xianbei to use the strength of the whole family to attack...

We can pretend to be invincible with defensive chaos, and take advantage of the situation to lure the main force of Xianbei into our army's ambush circle.

With such magical weapons as cannons, destroying its vitality is like slaughtering pigs and dogs. "

When Cao Ang said this, he also seemed to have lingering fears about the power of the cannon. After a pause, he continued:

"After destroying the main forces of Xianbei's various ministries, our army can unite with Jihou's (Lu Bu) cavalry to drive straight into Xianbei's territory, kill the remaining Xianbei troops, and plunder its population. Finally, implement the strategy proposed by the teacher to integrate the nation!"

"It's okay..." Cao Cao pondered for a moment, and felt that Cao Ang's strategy was bold and calm, "It seems that Ang'er has really grown up!"

Cao Cao was very relieved, but he still said calmly: "Since you have a countermeasure in your mind, I will leave Xianbei in the north to you to deal with."

"Here! The boy must live up to his father's high expectations!" Cao Ang finally waited for the opportunity to lead the army alone, and his voice trembled a little under the excitement in his heart.

In fact, Lu Yan has already started to use the strategy of national integration, and Wuhuan, the three counties, is now in the process of integration.

The history of China is actually a history of national integration.

It's a pity that the Han people were passively integrated with other ethnic groups, and they were all assimilated by their own culture when they were ruled by other ethnic groups in the Central Plains.

That kind of fusion is not acceptable to Lu Yan or Cao Ang now, because that kind of fusion is often accompanied by the blood and tears of the Han people.Now that we want to take the initiative to engage in ethnic integration, it is natural that the Han people should take the lead.Those masters who read the books of sages and sages, who are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, now have a place to use their skills.

The task of educating the people of Wuhuan in the three counties has just begun, and the next step is to educate the people of Xianbei.

"If this matter can be successful, it will be a way to leave a name in the history of those sour literati that these teachers say..." Cao Ang couldn't help but teased in his heart.

Cao Cao saw that Cao Ang seemed to have something to say, so he asked, "If you have something to say, don't be like that Lu Changsheng who always talks in half and makes people go up and down."

"It seems that Mr.'s habit has been criticized by many people..." Cao Ang felt a little amused in his heart, but he still maintained the most basic calmness, and replied, "Here."

After deliberating on the language, Cao Ang continued: "Father, my child has been thinking about why foreigners always want to invade my big man."

"Well...go on."

"My Han Dynasty is prosperous and beautiful. The common people can obtain food and clothing through farming; they can also engage in construction and production to make themselves rich. But the cold outside the Great Wall, the only way to survive is grazing. Once the weather is extremely cold...

Who wants to migrate and wander around if they can have a stable and prosperous place to live? "

Cao Cao took a sip from the teacup in hand and said, "That's right, it's pretty cool for you to think of these things."

"Thank you father for the compliment." Cao Ang cupped his hands to express his gratitude, and continued: "In my child's view, the teacher's ethnic integration strategy is not only relatively mild so as not to attract too much criticism; The population of Dahan has rapidly improved our strength."

"But Mr. Lu also said that if you are not of my race, your heart must be different." Cao Cao interrupted abruptly.

Cao Ang nodded and grinned: "This is the key to active integration... Culture, habits, customs, the key to integration is to assimilate their thoughts and make them think that they are also a member of the Han nation! Let them To be a member of the Han people is proud, proud, and supremely honored!!!”

Cao Cao paused for a moment. He seemed to see a shadow of Lu Yan from Cao Ang, and said with relief, "Very good. It seems that you have learned a lot from Mr. Lu..."

"Mr.'s knowledge is as vast as the deep sea, and his wisdom is as vast as the stars. My child's knowledge is far from what it should be." Cao Ang said modestly.

"Then Lu Yan is not a mortal, it's good if you can learn it." Cao Cao said a little bit out of pride.

But fortunately, Cao Ang didn't think about it elsewhere, he just thought it was Cao Cao's high evaluation of Lu Yan.

The father and son were silent for a while, before Cao Cao said suddenly, "You have matured, and your brothers have grown up too. I am very pleased that you can love your brothers, and I hope you can maintain your original intention as always."

"Father's teachings, children will remember them in their hearts."

"There is chaos in Xiliang, and now if Xianbei attacks Youzhou again, there will be changes in the south.

The main force of our army should focus on dealing with Liu Biao and Sun Quan, so for the time being, we can only rely on you and Lu Fengxian in the north.If you have any problems, you can go to Tian Chou for help; if you have any difficulties, go to Mr. Lu. "

Cao Ang replied respectfully: "My child understands!"

After Cao Ang finished speaking, Cao Cao suddenly said, "I will ask Wen Chang, Zi He and Wen Lie to help you.

Wei Wenchang has both bravery and martial arts, you should listen to his advice more.

Let's stop here today, you go and deal with today's case file first. "

"Thank you, father!" Cao Ang clasped his fists in gratitude to Cao Cao, and then retreated respectfully.

Chapter 448 The Wind and Cloud Convergence

In the eighth year of Jian'an, in mid-September, the grassland weather has gradually turned cold.

The leaders of Xianbei's various ministries have gathered at Ke Bineng's court at this moment.

In the king's tent, Ke Bi Neng was condescending, looking at Bu Dugen, Su Li, Que Ji, Mi Jia and others in the big tent with solemn expressions.

"It's only mid-September this year, and the weather has already started to get cold... If we don't unite to grab some winter supplies from the Central Plains, I'm afraid this winter will kill a lot of people, a lot of cattle and sheep!" Ke Bineng said with a heavy tone .

"Snatch it! The Han people are so weak, what are we worried about? Although it will be very cold in winter, as long as we grab enough things and come back, we can still survive this winter easily." Budugen said nonchalantly.

Compared with Ke Bineng and Bu Dugen, Su Li, Que Ji, and Mi Jia from Eastern Xianbei should be more cautious.

Mi Jia took a look at Ke Bineng and Bu Dugen, and reminded: "Cao Cao is now occupying Youzhou. Not long ago, Cao Jun ran thousands of miles and wiped out Wuhuan, the three counties. It is so powerful that we must not take it lightly!"

Ke Bi Neng smiled when he heard the words, and said: "I just received the news that Cao Jun is handing over the defense of Youzhou with Lu Bujun. At this time, Youzhou is in a situation where there is no need to take over. It happens to be a good time for us to send troops to plunder .”

"Really?" Mi Jia, Su Li, and Que Ji looked at each other and asked.

"It's absolutely true!" Kebi Neng nodded.

After hearing Ke Bineng's exact answer, the other leaders were also moved.

If Cao Jun and Lu Bu Jun take advantage of the handover and attack Youzhou when they are young and yellow, they may really be able to inflict heavy losses on both of them.

If Cao Jun and Lu Bu Jun can be defeated, and wantonly looting in Dai County and Shanggu County, then this winter will really not be so difficult.If we can break through the Juyongguan and other defense lines and enter the more affluent Yuyang and other counties and counties, then the supplies for next year's winter will be enough...

Although there are lessons learned from Wuhuan in the three counties, for the former king of the grassland, Cao Jun's ability to defeat the Wuhuan people does not mean that he can definitely defeat them Xianbei.Moreover, Cao Jun's defeat of Wuhuan relied on a surprise attack, and Cao Jun won a complete victory by killing Wuhuan by surprise.

In a comprehensive comparison, the kings of Xianbei feel that they don't need to be afraid of Cao Jun at all, and it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Cao Jun and Lu Bujun to hand over defense...

"Done!"

"My son from the grassland will definitely reoccupy Dai County and Shanggu County, and kill those Han people!"

"Kill them all! Snatch them all! Burn them all!"

......

Wei Xu led [-] soldiers. After eating, drinking and resting, he led the troops northward and arrived at Juyongguan.

Juyongguan is built on Jundu Mountain, and it is one of the nine fortresses in the world. There is also Junduxing, one of the eight Taihang Eight Xings, and it was also the main fortress of Yan State.Juyongguan, together with Zijingguan and Daomaguan, are also known as the inner three passes, and together constitute the second line of defense in Youzhou.If a pass is breached, Guangyang, Zhuojun, Yuyang and other places will have no danger to defend, and the situation may be very dangerous.

As the gateway to the north, Juyongguan has always been guarded by garrisons.

When Liu Yumu guarded Youzhou, because Youzhou was sparsely populated, he moved the people of Dai County and Shanggu County to the east of Juyongguan, so that Dai County and Shanggu County were almost occupied by foreign races such as Xianbei.

Later, Gongsun Zan killed Liu Yu and attacked the alien races in these two counties. The situation in Dai County and Shanggu County improved a bit.

After Yuan Shao occupied Youzhou, Yuan Tan started to use troops against Dai County and Shanggu County again, and only then did he drive the aliens out of the two counties.

However, Dai County and Shanggu County have been raging with foreign races all year round, and the flames of war are not extinguished. They are basically the same ruins. Whether it is Gongsun Zan or Yuan Tan, they are only guarding the second line of defense... As for those foreign races, they just chase them away. Just do it.

This situation did not improve until Cao Cao occupied Youzhou.

After Cao Jun defeated the coalition forces of the Yuan brothers and Wuhuan, he sent troops to Shanggu County and Dai County in the west of Youzhou, and finally completely recovered all the counties and counties in the west of Youzhou.

Guan Yu guarded Dai Commandery, Zhang Fei and Tai Shici guarded Shanggu Commandery, with their large army, the people of the steppe never dared to go south easily.

After being guarded by the guards, Cao Cao offered very attractive conditions to these two counties. Some Han people who wanted to fight for a better life also migrated to these two counties.

Later, Dai County and Shanggu County relocated another 20 Wuhuan civilians, and these two counties finally gradually regained their vitality.

Today, Wei Xu came to hand over the defense of Juyongguan with Tai Shici.

Juyongguan is now garrisoned by Tai Shici and his Beiwei army. With this powerful army guarding the world's first soldiers, at least the threat from the northwest will no longer be a threat.

Because of Lu Yan's relationship, Cao Jun and Lu Jun are equivalent to a family, and Wei Xu and Tai Shici also had some dealings.Therefore, the handover process between the two of them was smooth and pleasant, and they even found time to have a drink together and brag about it.

After Wei Xu took over Juyongguan, Zang Ba, Song Xian and other generals under Lu Bu also entered Shanggu County and Dai County one after another.

Tai Shici led the army to leave Juyongguan; Zhang Fei led the army to withdraw from Juyin; Zhang Fei led the army to withdraw from Gaoliu County... The basic local defense has almost all been handed over to the generals under Lu Bu.

As for the iron and steel plant in Daijun, the defense here is still guarded by the army sent by Tian Chou, and Daijun will be guarded by Lu Bu himself, so safety is still guaranteed.

Just when Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Tai Shici and others completed the transfer of defense and were about to lead their army to leave Youzhou for the Central Plains, suddenly a messenger came to their army with Cao Ang's military order...

......

In Beidi County, Han Sui, who had surrounded the last defenders in Fuping, received another bad news.

The messenger rushed to report, "My lord! Our grain carts have been burned again!"

"Have you found out who it is?" Han Sui's face darkened, and he said in a gloomy tone: "Damn it, this is already the fifth time!"

"No...no...that group of people are good at disguising and escaping, brothers, you can't catch them!"

Although there were only a few carts of grain burned each time, which added up to less than ten thousand stones of grain, but even if someone stabbed them with nail clippers from behind, it would still be uncomfortable if there were too many times.Pain may be okay, but it's mainly disgusting people...

Ma Chao, who set off from Chenliu, had already led [-] elite riders back to Hanyang County, Liangzhou day and night.

With the help of Ma Chao and the Ten Thousand Wolf Cavalry Battalion, Ma Teng and Zhang Lu's allied forces finally gradually compressed the defenses of Cheng Gongying and Yan Xing until they approached the city.

Han Sui also received a request for help from the rear. He really can't afford to delay here.
