Han Shimou

Chapter 693 Northwest or Jiangnan

Gongsun Kang was afraid of Cao Cao's general trend. He stood on his own side in Liaodong, and no one could control it. He was the uncrowned king of Liaodong. He was not willing to surrender to Cao Cao. That is to say,

"I'm afraid that Cao Cao will lead troops to Liaodong and want to take away my foundation in Liaodong. It's better to take two Yuan envoys to help me and attack Cao Cao together."

Gongsun Gong knew that his brother did not want to surrender to Cao and lost his power. He thought for a while and remonished him.

"That's it. When my brother grows up, he can make people listen. If Cao soldiers come to attack, he must have the intention to take Liaodong, that is, he will leave two Yuan, and we will fight against Cao together. If it does not move, it shows that it does not have the heart to seize the foundation of his brother. That is, this brother can kill Eryuan and send it to Prime Minister Cao. On the one hand, his cousin can respect Prime Minister Cao, and on the other hand, he can avoid the disaster of war. It is actually a blessing in Liaodong!"

"My brother's words are really wonderful, and you should follow them."

Gongsun Kang nod in the same way, so he ordered someone to explore Cao Jun's movements. Cao Jun did not move. When Gongsun Kang heard this, he was very confident and quickly discussed with his brother about the murder of Er Yuan.

However, it was said that Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang went to Liaodong, and the two secretly discussed. Yuan Shang said so.

"Gongsun Kang is an incompetent person. His father is in Japan and often has the heart to swallow Liao, but he is slow because of the attack on Cao. Today, there are tens of thousands of soldiers in Liaodong, and the terrain is complex and rugged. With this advantage of the terrain, it is enough to compete with Cao Cao. As long as you and I don't die for a day, the Yuan family will not die. Today, my brother temporarily voted for it, waiting to repel Cao thieves, and then use a plan to kill Gongsun Kang and seize his land in Liaodong. Cultivate the light and hide the dark for several years, and cultivate the strength to attack the Central Plains again. In this way, you can recover Hebei.

"What the third brother said is reasonable."

Although Yuan Shang lost the general trend, his ambition has not diminished. Yuan Xi has always been weak and resourceful, and now he obeys his brother. The two have agreed to lead the army to see Gongsun Kang. Gongsun Kang sent his brother Gongsun Gong to greet him and left Eryuan to rest in Guanyi. Er Yuan wanted to see Gongsun Kang to discuss big things. Gongsun Gong only said that his brother was sick and did not meet him immediately.

Every day, the detailed work came to return. It is said that Cao Cao's soldiers were stationed in Liucheng, and there was no movement for a long time. It seemed that there was no intention to go to Liaodong. Gongsun Kang was overjoyed and killed Er Yuan's heart, which was more certain. That is to say, discussing with his brother, Gongsun Gong offered a plan, set up a Hongmen banquet, and ambush Eryuan. Gongsun Kang followed him and first put the knife and axe in the wall clothes in the hall and sent someone to call Er Yuan to see him. Er Yuan heard the biography of Gongsun Kang. In addition to excitement, he had no doubt and came to see him quickly. After the meeting, Gongsun Kang ordered Er Yuan to sit down.

When the weather was severe and cold, Yuan Shang saw that there was no mattress on the bed to keep out the cold. He frowned and bowed to Gongsun Kang and asked.

"The weather is very cold. I hope you can give me a seat."

When Gongsun Kang heard the words, his face suddenly changed greatly and he shouted angrily in the hall.

"You wait for the heads of two people and will travel thousands of miles! Why do you need to sit down!!?"

Yuan Shang was shocked, and Yuan Xi was so scared that his soul flew. He ploped and paralyzed on the ground. Gongsun Kang shouted angrily again and shouted loudly.

"Why don't you do it! Kill the thieves!"

The knife and axe hand in the ambush wall coat rushed out when he heard the order, and instantly swallowed Er Yuan and slashed the knife randomly. Er Yuan could not avoid it. They were all killed by the knife and axe hand under Gongsun Kang. Gongsun Kang ordered people to cut off Eryuan's head, put it in a wooden box, and sent it to Liucheng to see Cao Cao.

It is said that Cao Cao is in Liucheng and does not move. Xiahou Dun, Cao Ren and other generals were afraid that Luoyang's soldiers would be empty, and they would take advantage of it. They advised Cao Cao not to go to Liaodong as soon as possible to return to Luoyang and Baoding the rear. Cao Cao appeased the generals and let them not be impatient. They waited for the head of the second Yuan to come, even if the class returned to the court. None of the generals believed it.

Suddenly, soldiers came to report. Sun Kang, the Duke of Liaodong, sent people to Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang to meet, and the generals were shocked. The messenger submitted a letter to the head of Eryuan. Cao Cao ordered people to open the wooden box, which was indeed the head of Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang.

Cao Cao laughed loudly.

"Haha. Sure enough, there is no filial piety!"

Cao Cao rewarded the envoy and appointed Gongsun Kang as the Marquis of Xiangping and General Zuo. Cao Cao settled down. Seeing that all the officials of His Highness were full of suspicion, Cao Cao issued a letter from Guo Jia to show the officials.

The book is like this.

"Today, I heard that the two sons of Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang were defeated and turned to Liaodong. Ming Gong was not allowed to add troops. Gongsun Kang has been afraid of the annexation of the Yuan family for a long time, and the two Yuans are going to surrender. Gongsun Kang must be suspicious. If the lord attacks it with troops at this time, the two will meet the enemy together, and you can't be in a hurry. If the lord slows down, Gongsun Kang is afraid of the lord's general situation and will definitely kill Eryuan to calm the heart of the lord.

When all the officials saw it, they all enthusiastically praised it. They all said that Guo Jia was like a god, worthy of the name of 'ghost talent'. With the death of Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi, the Yuan family was officially destroyed. Cao Cao seized the jurisdiction of the Yuan family and shocked Hebei. In fact, he became the most magnificent force in the world.

After the celebration, Xun You, Cheng Yu and other counselors asked together.

"Hebei has been established. Today, because the Prime Minister returned to Luoyang early, he can build it early and go to the south of the Yangtze River or the northwest."

Cao Cao laughed and exuded the power of whales to swallow the world.

"Jiangnan and northwest, the two are equal. I will delay most of the world. At that time, I will try to ask who can stop my edge. In addition, in a few years, the world will be settled. I have had this ambition for a long time! What you said is exactly what I want.

Cao Cao calmed down Hebei, a group of civil and military, and the sergeants all returned to the Central Plains like arrows. Cao Cao sent his army back to the court on the same day and rushed to Ye County, Jizhou. Cao Cao's army was resting in the city. Cao Cao was so excited that he came to the east corner of Yecheng and looked up at the astronomy by the railing. Shi Xunyou was accompanying him. Cao Cao knew the celestial phenomena and pointed to the sky for two days and said.

"The starlight in the northwest is flourishing, and the south is prosperous. The two are booming. I'm afraid it can't be light!"

Xun You hurriedly saluted and responded.

"With the Prime Minister Tianwei, nearly 700,000 people in the Yuan family can't resist. The Prime Minister has now gained half of the world, which is more than several times more than before. In the northwest and south of the Yangtze River, the Prime Minister can get it at his fingertips. There is no need to be afraid of this area of astronomy!"

Xun You was talking when he suddenly saw a golden light outside the city rising from the ground. Xun You was shocked and said quickly.

"The Prime Minister, the golden light is a good omen, and there must be treasure underground!"

When Cao Cao heard the words, he quickly went downstairs and ordered a team of soldiers to dig with the light. After a while, the soldiers dug out a copper finch at the golden light, and Cao Cao quickly asked Xun You.

"What's the sign of this?"

Xun You remembered Cao Cao's words just now and heard that he was quite worried about the expedition to the northwest and south of the Yangtze River. Now it happens to be this vision. Xun You's brain turned around, thought about it, and said immediately.

"In ancient times, there were rumors that Shun's mother dreamed of a jade sparrow in her arms and gave birth to the emperor Shun. The bronze sparrow obtained by the prime minister today is an auspicious omen. It is a sign that the prime minister will become the emperor of the ages and win the world like Shun!"

Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard the words, and his worries were removed. He also wanted the generals and soldiers in the army. Because of the conquest of the Yuan family, he was tired of war, which happened to appease the hearts of everyone. Cao Cao then ordered to be a high platform to celebrate it. With such a big construction, Cao Cao had a thought in his heart. The bronze finch foreshadowed that he was destined to return. Just in this way, one could calm the hearts of the generals and soldiers, and the other could deter the princes of the world, so that they were afraid of fate and came down one after another.

So Cao Cao ordered people to break the ground and wood, burn tiles and grind bricks, and build a bronze sparrow platform on the Zhanghe River. It takes about a year to finish the work. The young son Cao Zhi quite understands Cao Cao's mind, so he has a admand.

"If the father wants to shock the princes, he will be calm. He can't finish building this platform hastily. The child has an idea. There are three platforms, and the tall one in the middle is called the copper finch, the one on the left is called Yulong, and the one on the right is called Jinfeng. It is also made into two flying bridges, which is spectacular. Only in this way can it have a miraculous effect.

Cao Cao nodded slightly.

"What my son said is reasonable. If you want to get a great effect, this platform should be the first in the world!"

It turned out that Cao Cao had five sons, but Cao Zhi was sensitive and intelligent, good at writing, and wrote good words. He pinched it casually and exported it into chapters. Cao Cao usually loves Cao Zhi the most. So Cao Cao left Cao Zhi and Cao Pi to build Taiwan in Ye County. Cao Cao's general received Yuan Shao's soldiers, a total of three or four hundred thousand, and the squad returned to Luoyang. Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty led all the officials in the court to welcome him. Cao Cao led his military force into the city, and the people cheered in unison. Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty held a banquet in the Luoyang Palace to wash the dust for a group of meritorious people. Naturally, it was not a problem.

Cao Cao was awarded the title of meritorious minister, Jia Xu, Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Xun You and other counselors, as well as Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Xiahou brothers, Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Zhang Ja, Gao Lan and other generals, all of whom were awarded the title of marquis. After the banquet and reward, Cao Cao attacked the Yuan family, and the territory covered half of the country. The princes of the world were all deterrent. Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty also had some people who wanted to support the Han Dynasty. Seeing that Cao Cao's situation was difficult to stop, it was inevitable that he would be discouraged. Since then, Cao Cao has been shocked at home and abroad. Everyone in danger is in danger, lest Cao Cao will lead a large army to attack his jurisdiction in the next step.

Cao Cao's ambition and the heart of the world are well known to everyone. So what is his next step, where will the military front point to?

Someone, Cao Cao gathered a group of counselors and generals to discuss, and wanted to make arrangements for the great cause of the world. The great cause of the world is like sailing against the water. If you don't advance, you will retreat. Cao Cao is well aware of this and will never follow the rules like Liu Biao and Liu Yan. In Cao Cao's eyes, such behavior is like sitting and waiting for death!

Cao Cao sat in the first seat, closed his eyes and said faintly.

"Northwest, or south of the Yangtze River. Can the public have a resolution?

Everyone unconsciously turned their eyes on Jia Xu, the military division. Jia Xu humbly saluted everyone, and then turned their eyes to Guo Jia, and everyone immediately looked away. At this time, Guo Jia's face was still a little pale. Since Cao Cao Cao's triumphant return, Cao Cao had a lot of affairs. He agreed with Guo Jia that the banquet had not been promised at this time. Although Guo Jia had been recovering for several months, it still did not improve. However, Guo Jia secretly ordered the imperial doctor not to tell Cao Cao about this matter, so as not to be distracted by Cao Cao. Those imperial doctors were afraid of Cao Cao and secretly reminded Cao Cao, but Cao Cao was involved in affairs, and they had never had a chance to get close to him. Therefore, Cao Cao did not know that Guo Jia had not recovered at this time.

Guo Jia slowly got up, cheered up and bowed. Jia Xu, Xun Yu, Xun You and other sharp-eyed people all found that Guo Jia was quite inappropriate, and their faces changed one after another.

"It seems that the disease of filial piety has not been cured!"

Xun Yu silently slandered, and unconsciously turned his eyes to Cao Cao, who was closing his eyes on the first seat. At this time, Cao Cao was focused on his hegemony, and it was inevitable that he would be negligent to the next Wu. However, Guo Jia can't afford to lose Cao Cao's hegemony or righteousness. Xun Yu was a little anxious about Guo Jia's condition.

Xun Yu thought about it secretly, and by this time, Guo Jia had already opened her mouth to speak.

"If the lord conquers the south of the Yangtze River, it must be a big obstacle before it can be done."

"Oh? The Prime Minister shocked the world, and there were few peerless talents in the south of the Yangtze River. Liu Jingsheng was even more mediocre and incompetent, and he only knew how to guard the land. May I ask Jiangnan who can hinder the Prime Minister's front? I don't know what kind of person is the obstacle of filial piety?

The examiner was slightly surprised. Cao Cao was powerful. He had a deep feeling, so he had this question.

"This man is Uncle Liu, who is famous all over the world in the name of kindness. Liu Xuande!"
