Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

As the saying goes, everyone carries the bridal sedan chair, and since Lu Yan supported Lao Cao's son, of course Lao Cao would like to reward him with a kind word.

Standing behind Liu Xie, Yang Biao couldn't help but clenched his fist with his right hand, and slammed it on the palm of his left hand with a loud "slap".

Although the old man is already in his sixties, his face is still glowing, his thinking is quick and his legs are flexible.

He said to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, Wuhuan of the three counties was destroyed by Meng De and Changsheng;

The central Xianbei was also wiped out by Meng De's eldest son, and the eastern and western Xianbei were also sad this winter...

This time can be regarded as the greatest achievement in foreign wars since Hanwu.

The name of His Majesty will definitely leave a strong mark in history!Ha ha ha ha! "

The historians are basically Yang Biao's disciples now... He said that Liu Xie will have a good name in the history books, so most likely Liu Xie will have a good reputation in the future!

As the so-called broad-minded and fat, Liu Xie has become a little rich recently.

Liu Xie, who was already in a good mood, immediately replied cheerfully after hearing Yang Biao's words: "That's a good relationship...I just hope that I won't leave a bad reputation forever."

Lu Yan also said at this time: "Your Majesty, don't worry, as long as the big men are reunified, your reputation will not be worsened. Moreover, Luoyang has already been rebuilt by more than half. What was destroyed at the beginning is now being rebuilt one by one in your hands. Looking back at history, such achievements are extremely rare!"

Liu Xie was blown away by Lu Yan's flattery.He patted Lu Yan and Cao Cao on the shoulders, and said, "This is also thanks to Lao Cao and Lao Lu, you two! I, at least there is still a chance to see the day when the big men are unified again!"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, this is a must!"

"This is the duty of a minister!"

At this time, the old eunuch who has been serving Liu Xie also jokingly said: "Your Majesty, this old servant heard that the people outside were shouting "Long Live the Great Man" and "Long Live Your Majesty".

Various restaurants and shops also offered discounts to congratulate the soldiers of the Han Dynasty!

This is the aspiration of the people and the aspiration of the army!The revival of my big man is just around the corner! "

"Congratulations to Your Majesty! Congratulations to the great man!" A limited number of civil and military officials in the side hall stood up and bowed to congratulate Liu Xie.

Liu Xie saw his teeth but couldn't see his eyes with a smile, "Ke Bineng is a wolf cub, he dared to lead cavalry into our Youzhou... This time Cao Shizi will destroy Xianbei in one fell swoop, and get rid of this scourge for my big man, good! Great! !"

At this moment, suddenly there was another noise outside, followed by another sound,

"Good news!"

It was introduced into the side hall.

"and also???"

"Where is the good news this time?"

"It's really a good news, today is a good day!"

Liu Xie and others waited curiously for another good news to arrive.

"Report Your Majesty!

General Lu Bu of Chariots and General Zhang Liao of Xiaoqi led more than [-] soldiers to kill Lord Fu Luohan of Xianbei, behead the new Shanyu Xie Guini, and break through the royal court of Western Xianbei located on Danhan Mountain!

Xianbei orthodoxy, broken! "

"Wow!"

There was an uproar in the hall!

"Danhan Mountain was breached? Western Xianbei was destroyed? Xianbei orthodoxy was broken?!"

"Oh my God!"

Liu Xie stood up suddenly, and laughed with irrepressible joy on his face: "It's really great!

Lu Changsheng broke the siege of the south for us, and Lu Changsheng's father-in-law broke the roots of the wolf cubs in the north for us!

Today is really a big day!

The order continues, today is a day off, everyone celebrates well! "

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Yang Biao muttered to himself in a daze, "The days when the Xianbei people looted the people on our border time and time again seemed like the next day, but today... they are almost gone?"

Xi Zhicai has always maintained the most basic reserve, and said with a smile: "Yes! The Xianbei in the whole north is almost gone, and our north is stable!"

"No, there are still Jie people in our north, there are also Huns, and there are even Qiang people... we must not take it lightly."

Someone would pour cold water on this kind of time?Which one is not open, let's see!

The ministers secretly thought that this person was not knowledgeable, so they all looked at the person who spoke.

"Oh, it's him...it makes sense..."

That's right, it was Lu Yan who dared to pour cold water on Liu Xie and Cao Cao.

No one knows better than Lu Yan the threat of the northern prairie people.

Xianbei was killed today, and Turks, Huihe, Jurchens, and Mongols will probably come out tomorrow!

Because of the absorption of Han culture and technology, these prairie people became stronger and stronger from generation to generation.

If you really think that you can sit back and relax after destroying Wuhuan and Xianbei, then sooner or later the Central Plains will be poisoned by nomads again.

There is only one way to completely drive away the grassland people, paving roads and building cities.

But this idea has been hidden in Lu Yan's heart, except for Boss Cao who has been quietly peeking at Lu Yan's diary, no third person knows.

Cao Cao glanced at Lu Yan calmly, and thought: "You should tell your plan! Only if you tell me, can I ask for money, people, and land for you!"

Unfortunately, Lu Yan still plans to hide for a while longer.Because he felt that starting this plan now would consume a lot of manpower and financial resources, and would greatly hinder Cao Cao's progress in unifying the Han.The most important thing right now is to pacify the internal troubles. As for the bad neighbors around, there is plenty of time to deal with them.

Seeing that there was no sign of Lu Yan speaking, Cao Cao sighed in his heart and said, "Mr. Lu, you are really as stable as an old dog..."

Lu Yan didn't know that Cao Cao was complaining about himself in his heart. He was thinking about how to make money in his mind.

When it comes to making money, it must be the fastest way to get money by directly mining gold and silver mines.

And now he also has the capital to go to the island country, so he might as well find an opportunity to try secretly, whether he can open some sub-mines on that island country, "emmm... hold on, don't worry, this matter has to be careful Just make arrangements..."

Chapter 5 and eight of the divided Jingzhou interior

The New Year of the ninth year of Jian'an was spent in an extremely lively situation.

Because of the victories in the war between the north and the south, the people of this year celebrated extraordinarily wildly.

Lu Yan and his wife Lu Lingqi Xiaobiesheng are newly married, and Zhao Yun finally married his younger junior sister Zhou Yan under the strong request of Lu Yan, Lu Lingqi and others.

Generally speaking, the ninth year of Jian'an was a difficult year.

But fortunately, with the concerted efforts of everyone, this year that started with a bitter taste was turned into a year that ended with a sweet taste.

Of the three Xianbei tribes in the north, only the eastern Xianbei is left to survive, and the threat from the north is gone, so Cao Cao can free up his hands to prepare for the Southern Expedition with all his strength.

Compared with the jubilation of the Central Plains in the north, Jingzhou and Jiangdong in the south are now looking dull.

Xiangyang City, in the State Shepherd's Mansion.

Liu Qi sat high above the main seat, Pang Tong sat at his lower left, and the rest of the civil and military officials stood in two rows in the hall.

At this moment, the surrender faction and the combat faction, the two parties have already quarreled.

Pang Tong's plan for the Northern Expedition failed, which directly led to a huge split within Jingzhou.

The subduing faction, which had been suppressed before, now straightened up because of Pang Tong's failure, and their confrontation with the main combat faction also became fierce.

The capitulation faction is headed by the Kuai brothers. They are now making a big fuss about Pang Tong's failure, trying to persuade Liu Qi to give up resistance and return to the embrace of the big man.

The main combat faction is dominated by Pang Tong, Zhuge Jin and most of the generals.

Previously, because they held military power, they were able to suppress the main surrender faction, but with the failure of the Northern Expedition, their suppression of the main surrender faction has loosened.

"Sacrificing the lives of so many soldiers, as well as manpower and financial resources, what did you get in return?"

"The common people gathered food and grass for the army with less clothing and less food, but they were thrown in Jingbei for nothing... What are we trying to do?"

"..."

Facing the questioning from the Descendants, Pang Tong, Zhuge Jin and others were silent.

It's not that they don't want to argue, but that the news they just received seems to have made the main battle a little weak and pale for them.

If Cao Jun didn’t have a navy, they could still rely on Han Sheng to resist Cao Jun’s southward movement; but Lu Yan’s more than 100 ships were parked in Deng County, and sometimes they even came out to slip around to show their majesty. ...

With the disappearance of Cai Mao and his brothers, the Jingzhou navy was completely abolished.

Facing more and more Cao Jun naval forces, what should they use in Jingzhou to resist?

There was noise in the hall for nearly an hour.

It wasn't until the generals of the main battle faction, Wenpin, who had always been very good-tempered, that he was cornered, and then Wenpin asked Pang Tong for help: "Military division, you should say something!"

Pang Tong's thoughts were interrupted by Wenpin's call.

Although he really didn't want to tell the news, but even if he didn't say it, other people would know it sooner or later.

Pang Tong took out a secret letter from his sleeve, handed it to Liu Qi respectfully, and said, "My lord, I have received news not long ago... the Xianbei people in the north were captured by General Lv Bu and Cao Cao's son Cao Ang. , was destroyed."

Pang Tong's tone was as calm as possible, but when his words came out, the whole hall exploded as if a heavy bomb had been dropped!

"This... the Xianbei people were wiped out just like that???"

"After Wuhuan in the three counties, another powerful grassland tribe was wiped out! Just how powerful is Cao Jun?!"

"The war in the north is over...doesn't that mean that Cao Cao can go south with all his strength?"

"Isn't that the end of the calf?!"

It was only now that Zhuge Jin knew the news about the northern border. He looked at Pang Tong in astonishment, feeling gloomy in his heart.

The powerful Xianbei people in the north were wiped out just like that!

Cao Cao's strength... is really too strong.

Zhuge Jin was so strong that he felt helpless.

Liu Qi on the main seat, after reading the contents of the letter, he felt mixed feelings.

Cao Jun can go south with all his strength, Liu Qi must be lying if he says he is not afraid; but on the other hand, since he cannot resist, should he just surrender?

Thinking that there was a high probability that he could surrender, Liu Qi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, he doesn't like fighting, and he doesn't have the ambition to dominate the world... What he likes most is composing poems with gifted scholars and beauties, and looking for unique pleasures between drinking...

With the news of Pang Tong, the two brothers Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang became more confident.

They frequently stated to Liu Qi the benefits of voluntarily surrendering to Cao Cao, and even assured Liu Qi that they would be able to win the benefits for Liu Qi to continue to be the shepherd of Jingzhou!

Liu Qi's heart is already moved, he himself is a weak and unconfident person.

For so many years, Liu Qi was able to live safely and even become the Lord of Jingzhou until now, in fact, it was almost all achieved with the help of Zhuge Jin and Pang Tong.

But in the end, he, Liu Qi, still doesn't like war... So he cast his questioning eyes on Pang Tong for the first time, and asked, "Military division, what do you think...if we surrender?"

......

Changsha County, Dongting Lake.

A ragged man stood by the lake. After seeing dozens of small boats in the lake, excitement flashed in their eyes.

The leader was Cai Mao, the former general of Jingzhou, and behind him were his younger brothers, Cai Zhong and Cai He.

Looking back at the way he came from, a flash of hatred and resentment flashed in Cai Mao's eyes!

They went all the way south to avoid the encirclement and suppression of the army sent by Pang Tong. If it weren't for their deep connections, they might not be able to pass Jiangling, and they would be arrested and slaughtered by Pang Tong's army.

After passing Jiangling, Cai Mao and others fled to Wuling.

Faced with Cai Mao's "refuge", Jin Xuan, the prefect of Wuling, naturally did not dare to accept; he also didn't want to see a powerful army swaying in his territory, so he gave them some food and grass and sent them away.

However, Jin Xuan also chose not to pay attention to the pursuers sent by Pang Tong, so Cai Mao had to run further south as a last resort.

After you chased me and fled, Cai Mao ran all the way to Guiyang County, and then he got rid of the pursuers.However, of the more than 1 soldiers he brought out before, there are now less than 2000 left.

Cai Mao hid his hatred and resentment deeply in his heart.

He turned to Cai Zhong and Cai He and said, "I also need the help of Mr. Cao's shadow guards. They not only helped me cover my whereabouts and get rid of the pursuers, but also helped us get these dozens of precious transport ships."

Cai Zhong also nodded and agreed: "Yes! These shadow guards are really powerful."

"Not only was he not besieged by Pang Tong, but he even slowly took root in Jingnan... These people are really scary!"

Yes, the dozen or so Shadow Guards of the Jiazi Battalion headed by Yanfeng not only escaped Pang Tong's siege, but also frequently operated in Jingnan and wooed and corrupted many anti-Liu Biao and Liu Qi family forces.
