Three Kingdoms: From Yinlin to Great Wei Xiongzhu

Chapter 210 Lao Cao, you taste, you taste carefully!
The Xu family was originally a well-known family in Qiaopei...

It's just that many years ago, it has long since declined.

And Xu Chu is from Qiao County, Peiguo, Xu Family Village is also located in Qiaoxian County, these five hundred fellow villagers are also from Qiao County, Peiguo...

Coincidentally, Cao Cao's hometown is also Qiao County, Peiguo.

Isn't this just a coincidence...

Seeing the astonishment on Cao Cao's face, Lu Yu repeatedly explained:
"Cao Gong's soldiers must be trustworthy, just...Xu Chu and these five hundred strong men are all from Qiaopei, and they are from the same hometown as Cao Gong, and Xu Chu is also a loyal and brave man. Apart from the members of the Xiahou Clan, there is no one more suitable than them to protect Duke Cao's safety!"

Uh... fellow countryman?
Cao Cao rolled his eyes, hey, he, Xu Chu, and these five hundred righteous men are fellow villagers.

If Cao Cao was guarded by...a fellow countryman, then the meaning would be different.

China has always paid attention to the friendship of the same robes, the same people, and the same country. Isn’t there a "Han Gang" in a large-scale anti-corruption TV series?

To put it bluntly, this is circle culture!
The friendship between the same robes, the same Ze, and the same township makes it easier to establish a circle of mutual trust, help each other, and communicate with each other...

By analogy, apart from Xiahou Dun, Xiahouyuan, Cao Ren, and Cao Hong's subordinates, the soldiers and horses who were originally from Qiaopei, Cao Cao... who else can be trusted, and who can let them protect him personally?
Thinking about it this way, Xu Chu, who was also from Qiaopei, and the five hundred righteous men couldn't be more suitable.

Cao Cao thought for a while, and in order to confirm, he asked directly: "Lu Gongcao, are you sure? Xu Chu and the five hundred strong men are all from Qiaopei?"

"It's a real replacement..." Lu Yu nodded, "Xu Chu is quite familiar with many Qiao Pei soldiers in the military camp, and even...Xu Chu and General Miaocai are old too!"

Hmm... Are you old with Xia Houyuan?
This blurted out his words, and immediately made Cao Cao completely dispel his grievances with Xu Chu and the five hundred righteous men, and began to trust him.

The so-called fellow countryman sees fellow countrymen, and the tears are in tears!
"well!"

After two good words in a row, Cao Cao nodded his head. Considering the friendship from his hometown, and considering Xu Chu's majestic teacher, Cao Cao suddenly felt better.

"Lu Gongcao is thoughtful."

He couldn't help sighing with emotion, but suddenly, Cao Cao finally felt a little bit of "filial piety".

However, he suddenly realized another problem...

Perhaps, the reason why Yu'er didn't recruit Xu Chu into Long Xiao's battalion, but recommended him to Cao Cao...

This move means a lot.

Cao Cao's mind was agitated, he pondered, it seemed that Yu'er was thinking too much, he was trying to prevent the Long Xiao camp from being too powerful, causing Cao Cao unnecessary suspicion, this is the way of being an official, and it is also the way of dealing with the world .

To restrain her edge, Yu'er seems to have done nothing wrong in this regard...

Thinking of this, Cao Cao couldn't help showing a look of sadness on his cheeks.

He murmured in his heart, Yu'er, Yu'er... Cao Cao is suspicious of the world, so how could he be suspicious of Yu'er?

You can't appreciate the good intentions of the old father for the time being!

"Cough cough..."

With a light cough, Cao Cao continued: "Since it was recommended by Lu Gongcao, that's it."

As he was speaking, Cao Cao picked up a pen and added the names of Xu Huang and Xu Chu in the memorial, and at the same time he shouted loudly: "General Xu and General Xu, please come in!"

Xu Chu and Xu Huang, who had already been waiting outside the door, walked quickly into the main hall.

"Xu Huang pays homage to Duke Cao!"

"I promise Chu to pay homage to Duke Cao!"

Cao Cao raised his eyes and looked at the two of them. Xu Huang was dignified and majestic, as if a mountain was collapsing in front of him without changing his face.

Xu Chu, on the other hand, was big and thick, and when he bowed his hands to salute, his fist was bigger than the mouth of a bowl.

No wonder there are rumors in Jianghuai that this man once dragged an ox backwards for a hundred meters, and he knew by looking at his fists that he must be born with supernatural power!

By his side, don't you feel full of security?

Of course, the word "I" also revealed Xu Chu's temperament, a little vulgar, but heartless, such a person is indeed suitable to stay by Cao Cao's side.

With this in mind, Cao Cao nodded in satisfaction, and he looked at Xu Huang first.

"You are Xu Gongming?"

"It's Xu!" Xu Huang's tone was sonorous, and a wave of heroism was washed away...

"Haha... tiger general!" Cao Cao stood up abruptly, "Just now Lu Gongcao strongly recommended you, and I have already agreed to show you as General Anxi, and a sixth battalion will be formed in Cao Ying, and you will take all the soldiers and horses into the No. The Sixth Battalion, you, Xu Gongming, are the commander!"

Huo... General Anxi?Commander of the Sixth Battalion?
Xu Huang was slightly surprised, General Anxi was fine...

In the past two years, the emperor returned to Luoyang. During this period, there were not one hundred but eighty generals and marquises.

The title of a general alone is not very attractive, but... the commander of the sixth battalion, this... this is a figure who holds the military power and even has an outstanding status in the Cao camp!

He, Xu Huang, as a surrendered general, is logically the most difficult to gain the trust of the lord...

But... Mr. Cao not only did not strip him of his troops, but even set up another battalion for him. Xu Huang was quite moved by this kind of trust.

Of course, it can also be seen from this.

How much weight does Lu Gongzi's words have in Cao Gong's heart.

"Thank you Mr. Cao..." Xu Huang didn't hesitate, and thanked him!

Cao Cao nodded slightly, then turned his eyes towards Xu Chu. "...Xu Zhuangshi is so tall and strong, as expected, he is worthy of Lu Gongcao's recommendation."

"From now on, you and your brethren will form an independent army and name it 'Hu Ben Army', the Suwei Zhongjun? Xu Zhuangshi will be the leader of the Huben Army, what do you think?"

ah... ah...

Huben Army?The leader of the Huben Army?
Xu Chu was taken aback. He formed a rebel army before, and it was just a small fight. The brothers under his command were all brothers. He hadn't experienced what a commander is!
Sounds domineering...

However, that's not the point.

"Mr. Cao..." Xu Chu turned his eyes and asked hastily: "My brothers and I originally wanted to join the Longxiao camp because the food in the Longxiao camp is good. There are three catties of grain and one catty of meat every day..."

"Mr. Lu told me that if I follow Mr. Cao, I will have three catties of grain and two catties of meat every day. I just want to ask Mr. Cao, is what Mr. Lu said true or not?"

As soon as he blurted out these words, Xu Chu felt that he had gone too far...

After all, it is three catties of grain and two catties of meat every day. In his inherent concept, the emperor's father is the most that he can be treated like this.

Suddenly, he felt that he was going too far, so he changed his words immediately.

"Mr. Cao, what I mean is that as long as the Huben army can have three catties of grain and one catty of meat like the Longxiao camp, my brothers and I will be devastated! My brothers and I have no skills, only two characteristics, one can Eat, one can fight!"

This is out of the way...

Ha ha ha ha…

Cao Cao laughed, Lu Yu laughed, and even Xu Huang beside him couldn't help laughing.

"Hahaha..." Cao Cao smiled and walked in front of Xu Chu, he asked meaningfully: "Xu Zhuangshi, the five hundred brothers in the Huben army are all as big as Xu Chu!"

"That's natural!" Xu Chu was more honest. When Cao Cao asked such a question, he answered truthfully.

Add a sentence later. "They all have the same appetite as me!"

But at this moment, Cao Cao turned around directly and stood with his hands behind his back. What he said next was a bit more serious and meticulous.

"Oh, if you are as big as Xu Zhuangshi, how can three catties of grain and one catty of meat be enough? How about..."

Cao Cao paused for a moment, then continued: "The food of the Huben army is distributed according to three catties of grain and three catties of meat per person per day? What does Zhuangshi Xu think!"

ah... ah...

Three catties of grain and three catties of meat, Xu Chu's eyeballs glowed green, green...

Meat, meat...it's all meat!

From childhood to adulthood, he has never eaten three catties of meat in one meal. He lived in Cao Ying. What kind of life is this? Happiness is too intense, right?

He was still in a daze, but Lu Yu hurriedly opened his mouth...

"Thank you, Mr. Cao... You brothers in the Huben Army are all blessed!"

"Boom..." With two fists together violently, Xu Chu cupped his hands and bowed. "Thank you Mr. Cao, and thank you Mr. Lu, we brothers can finally have enough to eat!"

Hahaha…

As soon as this remark came out, Cao Cao laughed again. He didn't forget to look back at Lu Yu. They looked at each other, and they both smiled brilliantly.

laughing...

Lu Yu did not forget to nod his head...

For the first time, he was filled with emotion. In this era...especially in this era of extreme lack of food and the need for children to eat each other, it is really a mother who has milk and is a mother.

...

After Xu Chu and Xu Huang were granted the edict, Cao Cao exchanged a few more words with them, and they both bowed their hands and withdrew.

There are only two people left in the main hall, Lu Yu and Cao Cao.

It was still a copy, two cups of tea, and the two sat opposite each other.

"When we entered the door, Lu Gongcao also mentioned that he had something to report... Is it time to say it?"

Cao Cao took a sip of his tea and took the initiative to speak...

Half an hour ago, when Lu Yu just entered the door, both of them had something to say...Cao Cao even asked, "You or me first!"

Now, Cao Cao has clarified the two memorials, next, it's Yu'er's turn.

Hearing this, Lu Yu subconsciously thought of the magnificent "Great General's Mansion" plaque outside the mansion gate...

Immediately, his face became serious, and he sat up straight.

"Is Mr. Cao really going to be a great general?" Lu Yu asked first...

This... Cao Cao rolled his eyes.

"This is the emperor's initiative to seal it? Is there any problem?"

"Yes...the problem is very big, even related to Duke Cao's life and death!" Lu Yu's tone was extraordinarily serious, and his expression was even more meticulous in his words.

All of a sudden, Cao Cao's brows were frowned, and his whole person raised his spirits.

"Say, keep talking!"

"Yuan Shao, Mr. Cao still doesn't understand?" Lu Yu brought the topic to Yuan Shao, and what he wanted to talk about was the formation of Yuan Shao's character. "He was born of a maidservant, a concubine, and was rejected by the mistress who was born as a princess since he was a child, and his status was low! It can be said that since childhood, Yuan Shu...even the entire Yuan family looked down on him, Yuan Shao!"

"If it weren't for his ability to use his family background to win over a large number of powerful people to work for him, how could he get to where he is today... So, Yuan Shao is stubborn in his bones!"

"Dare to ask Mr. Cao, can Mr. Cao understand Yuan Shao's stubbornness?"

Are you stubborn?
Cao Cao paused slightly, Lu Yu knew Yuan Shao, and Cao Cao knew Yuan Shao better...

In these years... Yuan Shao's pursuit, or the stubbornness in his heart, no one knows better than Cao Cao, and the same... This is also what Cao Cao has been pursuing in the early years.

"It's recognition, the recognition of people all over the world!"

Cao Cao blurted out... "I took this into consideration, so... I specially added Yuan Shao's name in tomorrow's memorial, and asked the emperor to officially issue an edict to appoint him as the current Taiwei."

"Five generations and three lords, doesn't this make everyone in the world agree with him? You know... a family of five generations and three lords is unique no matter in the pre-Qin period or in the Han Dynasty. This kind of glory was created by him Yuan Shao. Isn't this a proof of himself? The important matter of the glorious lintel! Why would he, Yuan Shao, be stubborn?"

Cao Cao made a big call...

From his point of view, it is well-founded, and it seems... there is no flaw.

But he never thought that Lu Yu's words directly poured cold water on him.

"Big mistake!"

Lu Yu was not polite and continued to guide Cao Cao. "It is true that what Cao Gong said is reasonable. Yuan Shao's stubbornness has indeed won the attention of the world, and the reputation of the fifth and third princes can indeed make him forget himself to a certain extent, and he is extremely happy, but...Cao Gong ignored one point! A more important point Important points!"

Speaking of this, Lu Yu's tone became more solemn, and he poked his head a little towards Cao Cao.

"Cao Gong, you are a 'Grand General'. No matter how prominent the official title of 'Taiwei' is, it is not as prominent as a 'Grand General'. The fifth generation and the third Duke are quite fragrant, but once Yuan Shao thinks... he is especially comfortable with Cao Cao. Under this 'Great General', even a feast of gluttony will become tasteless!"

"How big is Yuan Shao's heart and how small is his heart, don't I need to go into details for Mr. Cao?"

Under the great general, the fifth and third princes suddenly became unsatisfactory.

That's what Lu Yu wanted to express...

Huo, as soon as these words came out...Cao Cao was taken aback, and subconsciously, drops of sweat appeared on his forehead and back... He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and stared at Lu Yu with wide eyes.

Floating, he Cao Cao is floating!

Because the success of welcoming the emperor made Cao Cao so happy that he was a little carried away, but...he actually ignored this crucial point.

You can't float at such a time. Once Cao Cao floats, Yuan Shao will be able to lift a knife.

call…

call…

Letting out a long breath, the cold sweat dripped down Cao Cao's forehead, and his mind was thinking fast.

You know, no matter how strong Cao Cao is, no matter how much territory he has...

Before he really has the strength to challenge Yuan Shao, he must act like a little brother.

If the little brother in name suddenly became the boss of the big brother... the position of the general above the "Three Dukes", he would crush Yuan Shao to death in terms of official career and status.

So and so, not to mention the fifth generation, the sixth generation, the seventh generation and the third generation, Yuan Shao can't be happy...

With his heart smaller than a fingernail, he was so angry that he gave up going north to Youzhou and went south to attack Cao Cao... It is not impossible!

To put it bluntly, a lion that used to eat antelopes is suddenly trampled on the head by the hooves of antelopes. This is absolutely intolerable!
Breaking the covenant, fighting each other...

In such a situation, Cao Cao would be overwhelmed.

At this moment, Cao Cao's expression was extremely complicated, but Lu Yu continued to add:

"In the past few years, Yuan Shao destroyed Heishan, collected Qingzhou, and merged the prefectures, and beat the Southern Huns to kneel and sing 'conquer'. Now he is sitting on Qing, Ji, and Bingzhou, with hundreds of thousands of soldiers... Really speaking With the current strength, to put it bluntly, the three Cao Gongs tied together are not his opponents!"

"But... Mr. Cao has the emperor in his hands. If he can delay for a year, there will be countless people with lofty ideals who will agree with him, and countless warlords will join him. On the contrary, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan fought in the northern border and consumed them wantonly. , I dare to conclude that in less than five years, Duke Cao will have the capital to fight Yuan Shao decisively!"

What Lu Yu said was swearing...

At the end, seeing that Cao Cao's complexion was still complex, he did not forget to increase his tone, and added again and again: "Mr. Cao... These are the words from Lu Yu's heart. Mr. Cao, please taste it, please taste it carefully!"

Taste?
This is a piece of wool...

Cao Cao's back was completely wet. If Yu'er hadn't reminded him, he would have made a big mistake.

General?
Hehe...Indeed, he, Cao Cao, also wants to pretend!
Having said that, who wouldn't want to be a general who is under this man and above ten thousand people?
But in fact, this is just a false name, and Cao Cao will never put himself in a dangerous place because of the need to pretend to be aggressive. He didn't consider this level before.

Unexpectedly... the rank of a great general can influence the current situation in the world. This is Cao Cao's carelessness.

"Yu(er)...Oh, Lu Gongcao"...

Cao Cao almost called out Yu'er, but he just blurted out and hurriedly corrected him. "If it wasn't for your reminder, I would have almost made a big mistake. The position of General must be given to Yuan Shao! Such a 'General' can win us several years of development opportunities, which is very important, and this deal is also a sure profit No loss!"

"That's right." Lu Yu added: "Mr. Cao needs to remember that the emperor is in the hands of Mr. Cao. No matter how prominent Yuan Shao's position as 'General' is, he can still surpass the emperor!"

"Besides, this is actually a trap. As long as he, Yuan Shao, takes over the rank of the great general, he will be at a moral disadvantage if he turns against Mr. Cao in the future. Within a year, the Northern Territory will belong to Duke Cao, and he, Yuan Shao, will run away in panic like a bereaved dog!"

Huo... so domineering!
Within ten years, the northern territory will belong to Cao Cao!
Even Cao Cao... would not dare to utter such bold words!

Yu'er is so domineering!

hahahahahahahahaha...

Cao Cao laughed heartily, and figured out this verse... His mood improved a lot, and he immediately took out a new bamboo slip. He planned to revise and re-copy the memorial for the reward.

This general, Cao Cao will not do it, whoever loves to do it will do it!
Even Taiwei Cao Cao can let go, put on a low profile, and paralyze the enemy... Just do it thoroughly.

Cao Cao added the official title of "Great General" after Yuan Shao's official position, and then changed his official title to "Sikong"... Sikong, one of the three princes!
Just like that, Cao Cao copied it carefully. For half an hour, Lu Yu didn't say a word, watching him copy it silently.

Of course, Lu Yu's mood also calmed down a lot...

Take precautions before they happen, or in other words, don't float away!
Now at this stall, it's not that they don't want to fight with Yuan Shao, but that they don't have to fight at all!
Now it seems that Cao Ying's side is calm, but in fact, there are dangers and undercurrents raging...

The imperial court was newly established, and the various forces in the entire Xu capital city were intricate and intertwined, and it seemed to have become a big dyeing vat...

Lu Yu could guess with his eyes closed...

Qiao Pei Xungui who has made great contributions to Cao Cao, those court officials who claim to be high-ranking officials, and various small groups of warlords, clans, and wealthy families who will continue to join in, the governance of Xudu will be a huge problem!

Under such chaos, how could he spare his hands to deal with Yuan Shao?
Greeting the Son of Heaven, Ding Xudu... can only be said to be the first step in a long way, and there are still many things to do in the future. Lu Yu dare not be careless at all...

At this stall, Lao Cao can't let go!

"All right!"

After the copying was finally completed, Cao Cao checked it again and nodded immediately.

Afterwards, he took the initiative to help Lu Yu fill up the tea, which was the father's way of expressing his gratitude to his son.

It's all my own family, no need to be hypocritical, no need to praise too much, everything is in the tea.

Of course…

Cao Cao was particularly fortunate. When he was swaying, while the whole Cao Ying was swaying, only Yu'er was sober...far beyond his age.

Compared with his control over Yuan Shao's mind, this sobriety is even more precious!
solved…

Biao Zou Yuan Shao is a great general, the dust has settled, and a big stone in Cao Cao's heart has also landed safely.

Then...

Next, back to the previous topic.

Is the place where Yu'er's official title is played still empty?Why should Yu'er be appointed an official title?

considering…

Now that the various forces in Xu Capital City are intertwined, Cao Cao's thoughts are becoming more and more firm!
How about...how about letting Yu'er do this Xu Duling?
Of course... this may be good for the overall situation. With the prestige of the Longxiao Battalion, it will definitely be able to deter all the officials and all the young people.

But... this is not good for Yu'er's future!
Xu Duling... is an errand that offends others!

Cao Cao upholds the use of heavy codes in troubled times. Cao Cao doesn't want Yu'er to do this Xu Duling's errand, but...he couldn't find a more suitable person than Yu'er.

Phew... Taking a deep breath, Cao Cao simply said: "Lu Gongcao, your official title is still vacant, but I have an idea, Xu Duling? This official title? What do you think?"

This is out of the way...

Lu Yu trembled all over, afraid of something, suddenly, there was a thought in his heart——

——I bought a watch last year!

...
