Grassroots Overlord of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 186 The tip of the iceberg

A day later, Yang Feng led the second battalion of 4,000 iron cavalry to a valley, which was only 30 miles away from Luyang City. The soldiers of the second battalion were camping, and Yang Feng, located in the highlands, saw the smoke and dust suddenly rising from the official road in the direction of Luyang City.

In the face of the change in the war situation, he immediately ordered the troops to stop the camp and enter a state of alert. When the troops marching rapidly on the official road came into his sight, he saw that the troops were his direct soldiers.

The rapidly marching troops also saw Yang Feng's military flag. Under the order of the commander-in-chief, the army slowed down its speed. When the two armies met, the commander-in-chief came to Yang Feng with a single horse. Five meters away from Yang Feng's standing place, the general grabbed the reins, turned over and disared.

The general suddenly saw his master, and he suddenly lost control of his emotions and burst into tears. Under Yang Feng's eager eyes, the general gasped and said, "Report to the general, yesterday, Cao's army secretly attacked Luyang City at night. We tried our best to resist, but we couldn't resist Cao's continuous catapult, and finally was broken through by Cao's army..."

Yang Feng looked at the abdomen of his breathless heart and waved his hand to him with a painful face. He couldn't say a word. According to his visual inspection, there are less than 9,000 soldiers who escaped from Luyang City, and the other 10,000 elite soldiers and strong generals are estimated to have become lonely ghosts under the sword of the Cao army. And Xu Huang, my own love, I guess it's more and less auspicious at this time...

Son of a bitch, Cao Ayu, your mind is too vicious, isn't it?! Unexpectedly, he secretly played a conspiracy with me to hide from the world... Yang Feng clenched his fists, kept tears, gritted his teeth and cursed secretly. However, the cruel reality does not believe in tears, even if the emotions behind the tears are extremely real.

On the surface, Cao Cao was respectful to Yang Feng, making Yang Feng like in the clouds, floating in the clouds, dreaming about the bright future of Wang Tu's hegemony. But behind his back, Cao Cao viciously stabbed Yang Feng in the heart. Although it was not fatal, it also made Yang Feng unable to eat it. Let Yang Feng experience the painful lesson of "the higher you hold, the heavier you fall".

In tears, Yang Feng looked at Luyang City, 30 miles away, and turned his head to look at Luoyang, the capital hundreds of miles away. He thought: Luyang City and Luoyang City, he can't go for the time being. At this time, he has no face to return to his hometown Liangzhou... With such a deep hatred for Cao Cao's back, he will definitely retaliate against Cao Cao...

The world is so big, where can I live... Yang Feng, who is in anger and sadness, has to face this problem. In the predicament, in his mind, he remembered the benefits of Jia Xu, a super counselor: at the beginning, Jia Xu could save the Xiliang Legion, which was on the verge of defeat. At this time, if Jia Xu was by his side, according to his extraordinary wisdom and guidance, he would definitely help him overcome the difficulties in front of him!

He knew that this was just a whim: after all, they were born as generals and did not respect such weak counselors such as Jia Xu from the bottom of their hearts. From Li Yu and Guo Yan to himself, if Li and Guo Yu could listen to Jia Xu's plans and suggestions at the beginning, could the Xiliang Legion be defeated to such a point? Half of the defeat of the Xiliang Legion is caused by endless infighting! In the face of the internal wrath between the senior officials of the Xiliang Legion, Jia Xu ran away in anger...

Do you want to go or stay? Go, where are you going? Stay, can your own military strength fight against Cao's army at this time? ...Yang Feng had to think about this cruel problem that is related to survival. Just as Yang Feng's thoughts were exhausted, he suddenly remembered the alliance secret letter sent by Yuan Shu from Huainan to the Xiliang Legion some time ago.

After thinking about it, Yang Feng decided to lead his army to Yuan Shu, who was in Huainan. Nowadays, only by relying on the power of the Yuan brothers can he seek revenge on Cao Cao. In those years, the Xiliang Legion was so glorious and brilliant, and the dboy like Yuan Shu didn't enter his eyes at all. But now that the world is full of vicissitudes, from time to time, he can only turn to Yuan Shu and get temporary peace.

Yang Feng was afraid that Cao's army would take advantage of the victory to pursue, so he ordered the remaining army to march in the direction of Huainan as soon as possible!

......

At the same time, the Cao army guard, who escorted Emperor Xian to Luyang, drove slowly on another official road. Emperor Xian, sitting in Cuiluan's car, suddenly said to Cao Cao timidly, "General Cao, I don't want to move to Luyang. I don't want to see the generals of the Xiliang Legion again... In case Yang Feng suddenly repents and sends troops to chase him, what should I do?" Emperor Xian can suddenly say such a heart to Cao Cao, which shows that it is in the heart of Emperor Xian. In this, he began to trust Cao Cao, who had always been fair and clear in the world.

When Cao Cao heard Emperor Xian's heartfelt words, he looked at Emperor Xian's malnourished yellow face with regret, leaned over and said gently, "Your Majesty, don't worry too much. I will bear everything! Your Majesty, as far as I know, General Yang is not a villain who goes back on his way. Even if other Xiliang dog thieves have evil intentions and want to persecute your majesty, I will do my best to protect your majesty and die!"

Emperor Xian looked at Cao Cao's calm and calm appearance, and said extremely worriedly, "General Cao, don't trust Yang Feng easily. Don't be deceived by Yang Feng!" As far as I know, it is Yang Feng who boldly detains the goods given to me by loyal ministers from all over the world and enriches his own pockets for whatever he wants! ...General Cao, I don't want to go to Luyang, Yang Feng's army station. I just want to go to the general's station!",

"This..." Cao Cao was embarrassed when he heard Emperor Xian's childish words. In fact, Emperor Xian's reaction made him ecstatic: Emperor Xian took the initiative to ask for his territory, which saved him from explaining to Emperor Xian why he moved to Xuchang, instead of Luyang... Luyang, according to the previous sophisticated deployment, it is estimated that he was also occupied by the army led by the Marquis of Daxia at this time?

Even if Lu Yang was in Cao Cao's bag at this time, Cao Cao was surprised by Cao Cao in the face of Emperor Xian's initiative to change the destination. This unexpected change seems to be a pie falling from the sky, which is really worthy of his surprise. It's like an ordinary person tripping over a pile of money when he goes out, and a pervert suddenly sees **...

Emperor Xian looked at Cao Cao's "embarrassment" and asked eagerly, "General Cao, don't you listen to my will?!" Emperor Xian said, his tender face showed a strong disappointment, and tears circled in his eyes.

Cao Cao resisted his ecstasy and said firmly to Emperor Xian, "No! I would like to obey your majesty's will!" Hearing Cao Cao's resolute statement, Emperor Xian burst into tears and laughed, and his disappointment was swept away, replaced by a face of joy. He nodded heavily to Cao Cao with satisfaction to show his approval! Then Cao Cao gave the order to the messenger to turn the escort team to Xu Chang to march.

At the right time, place and people, Cao Cao's side deceived Emperor Xian from the Xiliang Legion to his own hands with the plan of "hiding the sky and crossing the sea", and then fooled Emperor Xian to his own territory. At the same time, Cao Cao's side used the tactic of "being unexpected and attacking him unprepared" to attack Yang Feng in Luyang. The direct army fought well.

In just five days, Cao Cao's side united as one, and planned strategies at the same time. At the same time, he welcomed Emperor Xian to Xuchang, and Cao Cao's group gained a political advantage; defeated the Xiliang army in Luyang and ensured Xu Chang's security militarily. After Cao Cao was defeated by Lv Bu, he finally had a big meal.

Because Cao Cao's side supported Emperor Xian, he showed his loyalty to the Liu royal family, so that Liu Zhang from Yizhou and Liu Biao from Jingzhou sent messengers to Xuchang to worship Emperor Xian; many rich clans in small places took the initiative to surrender to Cao Cao... In short, Cao Cao dedicated himself to the emperor and obtained many unexpected benefits.

Of course, this qualitative change of Cao Cao Group does not have much impact on the existing pattern of warlords. Looking at the overall situation, no matter how powerful the change of Cao Cao Group is, it is only subtle. This subtle change will only see the benefits in a few years...

At this time, various parts of Kyushu are also moving on the wheel of history, and subtle changes have taken place: in Youzhou, in order to strengthen the rule of the state government, Gongsun Zan gently cut a knife to the local rich clans: Gongsun Zan strongly established the Presbyterian Association, with the local suzerains as the elders, and the local suzerains must live in Yanjing City! Gongsun Zan's idea is to transplant from religious sects to the administrative system. In this way, Gongsun Zan achieves the purpose of controlling local rich clans by directly controlling local suzerains. To put it bluntly, the usually superior local suzerain is now a hostage in the hands of Gongsun Zant!

In the battle between Yizhou and Youzhou, Yizhou was defeated. As a result, Yuan Shao, the shepherd of Yizhou, became more fierce and fierce in anger. He was a poor army and forced to recruit and confisition all kinds of materials from the rich clans under his jurisdiction. As a result, the relationship between Yuan Shao and the suzerain of the rich family under his jurisdiction became more and more rigid, gradually reaching a critical point...

If the power and strength of these super princes such as Cao Cao Cao in Gongzhou, Yuan Shao in Yizhou and Gongsun Zan in Youzhou are all subtle in irreversible changes. The changes of Jiangdong Sun Group are obvious - a month later, Jiangdong Group released shocking news to the outside world: Jiangdong Xiaobawang died of illness, and the new owner Sun Quan is about to wait for sovereignty!

Of course, ordinary people believe in the official statement of Sun Group to the outside world, but for insightful people, they don't believe that Sun Ce died of illness. Can a super fierce general die of illness? That's a big joke.

In this way, Sun's Group also knows the drawbacks, but then again, even if you tell the truth to the outside world: Sun Ce was assassinated... To be so honest, the outside world will also question: can a super fierce general be assassinated? This is not talking in the sleep in broad daylight. How is it possible?

How to tell the outside world the cause of Sun Ce's death is really nerve-wracking to the senior management of Jiangdong Group. In desperation, the senior management of Jiangdong Group can only say to the outside world: Sun Ce died of a serious illness!

When Taishici received the notice issued by Jiangdong Group to the outside world, he had come to Donglai County, Qingzhou. In the county government hall, Tai Shici and Bo Cai talked at night. Of course, through the Ma Gang's intelligence network, the subtle changes of various parties such as Cao Cao and Youzhou Gongsun Zan turned into secret letters and sent to Tai Shici's desk.
