“Many Liangzhou generals have died, and the property they snatched must be confiscated, but the highlight is the eyebrow dock built by Dong thief!”

“The birthday gifts received at his birthday banquet alone are worth a lot, not to mention that half of the wealth from Luoyang looted is in the eyebrows.”

“After the obtained property is kept for Chang’an’s needs, Zhongde and Zilian are responsible for allocating it, and the rest is transported to Chen Liu.”

Cao Chen said with a smile, everyone listened to this, their eyes flashed a brilliant light, this time to destroy Dong Zhuo is indeed a lot of gains.

Cao Hong and Cheng Yu were also smiling, and Chang’an could quickly resume production after having enough property, Cheng Yu said with a slight groan.

“Zi Zhan, Chang’an is under the calamity of the Dong thief, and many people in the city are miserable and the people’s hearts are low.”

“I propose to open the warehouse and release grain to comfort the people, and at the same time distribute the seed grain to restore the production of the people.”

Listening to Cheng Yu’s proposal, Cao Chen nodded with deep understanding, the military discipline of the Western Liang soldiers under Dong Zhuo was not good, and they did not persecute the people.

If you want to restore the trust of the people, it is a good way to open the warehouse and release grain, Cao Chen said with a solemn face.

“Zhongde, you can decide as much as you can about Chang’an, and the Xiliang Iron Horse that has been collected must be restrained, and those who disturb the people will be killed!”

“In addition, the matter of occupying Chang’an with General Zhang Ji still needs Zhongde to come and contact, after all, you will have to work together in the future!”

“No!”

Cheng Yu and Cao Hong gave the order and said, and after talking about some other matters, everyone left and got busy.

……

In the following days, Xiahou Tuan and Cao Hong led troops to garrison Chang’an City, beheading the Western Liang generals who had done a lot of evil.

Seeing that the newly arrived Cao Jun did not disturb the people, had good military discipline, and got rid of Dong Zhuo and his generals, who had done many evils, the people cheered loudly.

Coupled with Cheng Yu’s opening of the warehouse to release grain and distribute grain, the people’s gratitude to Cao Jun and others was three points more, and words of praise came out from time to time.

On the other side, after Zhang Ji and Cheng Yu met, after some communication, they accepted the proposal to jointly station in Chang’an, and their expressions were not unhappy.

Zhang Ji himself has no ambition, but just wants to settle down in this chaos, and cooperating with Cao Cao and others is also the result of careful consideration.

After all, Zhang Ji knew that although he and others could wash away the identity of thieves, they would still be looked down upon by many princes, and even if they surrendered, they would not be accepted and reused.

And this time to eliminate Dong Zhuo, Zhang Ji already knew that it was Cao Chen who planned the whole process, and while he was surprised in his heart, he was a little jealous of Cao Chen’s methods.

After seeing the elite of the Great Snow Dragon Rider, Zhang Ji already knew the background of Cao Jun, and the meeting with Cheng Yu was also very happy.

Knowing that Cao Chen and the others wanted to welcome the Han Emperor back to Chen Liu, before Cheng Yu took the initiative to mention it, Zhang Ji said that he wanted Zhang Xiu to take more than 10,000 Western Liang Tie horses and return to Chen Liu together.

The meaning of this move is well known to both of them, which is also the premise of cooperation, and Zhang Ji also has an investment intention, after all, Cao Cao has not yet gained momentum.

On the side of the Han Emperor Liu Xie, Cao Chen and others immediately agreed to the proposal of returning to Chen Liu and choosing a new capital, and a smile appeared on his face.

After all, now that there is no help from others, there are no soldiers and officials in his hands to help, so Liu Xie can only continue to endure in order to seek the aftermath.

After the Chang’an incident, Cao Chen and the others led the army to escort the Han Emperor Liu Xie and hundreds of carts of belongings towards Chen Liu, and the news had been passed on to the pigeons, so that Cao Cao and the others could prepare early.

……

A few days later, Chen Liu, Taishou Mansion.

Cao Cao was leading Cao Ren and the others to sit opposite each other in the council chamber, and Cao Cao held up a secret letter and said aloud.

“There is news from Chang’an, Dong thief is ambushed, Lu Fengxian is defeated and fled, and Chang’an is all in my hands!”

“And Zizhan and the others are escorting Your Majesty, and they are on their way back, and they will arrive at Chen Liu in a few days!”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and their faces were a little shocked, after all, only a few people knew about Cao Chen’s plan.

Hearing that Cao Chen led the army to attack Chang’an so quickly, and now on the way back from the leading army, a general who had just surrendered asked.

“Lord Qiyu, it will take a long time from Chen Liu to Chang’an, how can the military division get rid of the Dong thief and return so quickly.”

“The last general dared to ask each other whether there was a mistake in the battle report, and in time, it seems that the military division has not encountered any resistance.”

Many generals couldn’t help but nod in agreement, Cao Chen didn’t seem to lead troops to fight against Dong Zhuo, but more like going to Chang’an to visit and return.

Cao Cao looked at the doubts on everyone’s faces, a little smile appeared on his face, and when he was about to speak, Cao Ren said loudly.

“This must be Zizhan using a strategy, as for what I don’t know, maybe the strategy is against the enemy army!”

Cao Ren’s words made many people’s eyes light up and opened their minds, but they didn’t figure it out for a long time.

Everyone looked at Cao Cao eagerly, and Cao Cao’s eyes lit up, and he said slowly with a smile on his face.

“Zi Zhan’s plan, in general, is a praying mantis catching cicada yellow sparrow, and our army is a hunter!”

After Dong Zhuo was cursed, Chang’an was controlled by himself, and the news here would definitely spread out, and the princes of the world must have sent scouts to Chang’an.

The goal has been achieved, and Cao Cao does not mind telling the plan, first, to satisfy the curiosity of everyone under him, and second, to create momentum for Cao Chen.

After all, now that Cao Chen has not reached the crown, many people under his command are still a little dissatisfied with Cao Chen, and Cao Cao does not mind letting Cao Chen directly establish the status of chief military division.

Cao Chen plotted against Zhang Ji’s uncle and nephew, and then contacted Situ Wang Yun, let Lü Bu dance the sword, intending to assassinate Dong, and finally Niu Fu and Li Yu arrived, and said everything.

When Cao Cao finally said that Li Yu would definitely be destroyed, everyone in the room could not help but applaud, and they no longer dared to despise Cao Chen, but were more jealous.

Everyone began to praise Cao Chen one after another, and the words of praise were endless, and Cao Cao, who was sitting on the main seat, listened to everyone’s praise for Cao Chen, with inexplicable relief and pride.

Just when Cao Cao was about to tell Cao Chen’s next arrangement, he saw Jia Xuan hurriedly running in, walked to Cao Cao’s ear and whispered a few words.

Cao Cao’s face suddenly changed drastically, first waved his hand to signal Jia Xuan to retreat, and then calmed his mind, looked at everyone with a calm face and said.

“Dong thief, I am very happy, today I will not talk about official affairs, Ziren will set up a banquet on my behalf to entertain everyone, wine and meat are enough!”

“No!”

Cao Ren gave the order and said, everyone also left after thanking him, and Cao Cao stayed alone, and after a few sighs of relief, said in a deep voice.

“Wen He, come in!”

Jia Xuan waited outside the council chamber after everyone had left, heard Cao Cao summoned, and was about to bow when he came in, but was stopped by Cao Cao.

“No need to be polite, did you find out Zi Zhan’s background?”

After Cao Cao finished speaking urgently, a solemn look appeared on his face, and his eyes stared at Jia Xu tightly, and Jia Xu nodded and said.

“Lord Qiyu, the background of the military master has been investigated!”

“Say it quickly!”
