Soon, Tao Qian ordered Cao Bao to lead 10,000 troops to Xiao County to join Zheng Rong and jointly pursue Cao Cao.

Cao Bao received the order, and the starry night came to Xiao County.

Zhen Rong didn't know that Cao Bao had planned to rebel, and brought people to greet him at the moment, Cao Bao stayed to eat and drink, and after three rounds of wine, Cao Bao suddenly threw a cup as a number, and the knife and axe outside the tent came out together, and cut Zhen Rong into meat sauce.

Cao Bao took out a forged warrant, announced Zhenrong's crime, and seized his military power.

Zhen Rong believed in Buddhism, promoted monks as cronies, bullied soldiers, and acted mischiefly, and Danyang soldiers had long been angry.

Cao Bao killed Zhenrong, and the Danyang soldiers immediately clapped their hands and celebrated, without any resistance.

Hearing that Cao Bao had mastered the military power, Lu Bu was overjoyed and ordered Cao Xing's generals to rush to Xiao County with 3,000 soldiers and horses of Chen Gong and Ma Xingye, and he led 5,000 soldiers and horses to pursue Cao Cao alone.

When Chen Gong arrived in Xiao County, he immediately joined forces with Cao Bao and returned to besiege Xuzhou City.

Hearing Cao Bao's rebellion, Tao Qian was so angry that he whimpered.

As soon as he died, the Xuzhou dragons were leaderless and soon fell into the hands of Cao Bao.

Lü Bu pursued Cao Cao alone, fell into an ambush, suffered heavy losses, 5,000 dead and wounded, and fled back to Xuzhou with only a few hundred followers.

Cao Cao won a big victory and occupied Xiaopei.

Although Lu Bu was defeated, he became the lord of Xuzhou, and his strength skyrocketed.

Cao Cao was difficult to conquer for a while, and Xiahou Yuan was injured, so he had to leave Lejin Li Dian to guard Xiaopei, and he led the army to return to the court.

In this battle, both sides have their own losses, but they also have their own gains, Lu Bu won Xuzhou, Cao Cao also got Xiaopei, and each has its own merits.

……

This is Xu Du?

Looking at the imposing new capital city, Guo Jia couldn't help but be amazed.

Judging from the momentum alone, Xu Du is blessed, and he has a bit of a tiger's spirit.

"Da Sikong returns to the dynasty in victory!"

A group of soldiers rushed out of the city and stood guard on both sides of the pipeline.

Shao leaning, the brigade galloped from the official road, led by a magnificent double-wheeled carriage, Cao Cao stood by the sword, proud of the front.

"Supply the lord to return to the court!"

Xun Yu and Xiahou led the civil and military officials to greet them and bowed down on the road.

Everyone, please rise!

Cao Cao got out of the car, stretched out his hand to help Xun Yu and Xiahoudun, and smiled.

"Congratulations on the triumphant return of the lord!"

Xiahoudun smiled.

Although he failed to defeat Xuzhou this time, he subdued Peiguo, which can be regarded as a small achievement.

Xiaopei's geographical location is very important, it is the bridgehead from Yuzhou to Xuzhou, and occupying Xiaopei is equivalent to mastering the initiative.

Hehe!

Cao Cao smiled unnaturally.

His purpose was Xuzhou, but by mistake Lu Bu took the lead in getting Xuzhou, and this brave and invincible man received the Danyang soldiers of Xuzhou, and his combat effectiveness was greatly improved.

It was difficult to attack Xuzhou, so Cao Cao had no choice but to return to the dynasty first.

"The Son of Heaven has set up a celebration banquet in the palace to wash away the dust for the great sikong."

Yang Biao on the side smiled.

Good!

Cao Cao raised his whip and said, "Go back to the palace!" ”

As he spoke, he boarded the carriage, and with the support of his subordinates, he drove into Xudu in a mighty way.

After the car was driven, there was a cloud of smoke and dust. After the guards were evacuated, normal order was restored on the official road.

"This guy is such a big shelf?"

Wang Yue sneered.

In terms of the strength of the princes in the world, Guo Jia beside him is the strongest, even Guo Jia does not have such a big shelf in Yunzhou, this Cao Cao is not a big bird, and the shelf is not small.

Guo Jia smiled slightly, didn't pay attention to it, and waved his hand: "Forget it, let's go into the city!" ”

So saying, he led the people to the gate of the city.

This time, he sneaked into Xu Du quietly, and in order to avoid being recognized, Wang Yue also disguised Guo Jia.

His face was darkened, and he had a big beard that even the most familiar people could not recognize.

Xu Du's inventory was very strict, and after carefully inspecting the carriages and horses of the group, he was allowed to enter.

However, they never dreamed that Guo Jia, the general of the dynasty, would enter Xu Capital under their noses.

After entering Xudu, Guo Jia did not immediately contact Skynet's stronghold here, but led people to the inn.

After settling everything, Guo Jia took Wang Yue to Fang City.

The pattern of Xudu City is the same as that of Luoyang, which is the front and back markets, with the left bell and the right drum, and the palace in the middle.

The reason why Guo Jia came to Fang City for the first time was to see the market in Xudu.

Cao Cao is still somewhat capable, and with his strong encouragement, Xudu's Fang Market is extremely hot.

The unique conditions, preferential taxes, and bustling crowds have brought great opportunities to Xudu's business and trade.

Guo Jia walked around the market a few times and found that the goods here are very complete, and almost everything can be bought here.

Many merchants in Yunzhou have also opened branches in Xudu.

Among them are the Su family, the Mi family and the Zhen family.

Yunzhou's fine wine has successfully occupied the market of Xudu, and it is almost in a state of short supply.

The winery that acts as an agent of Yunzhou fine wine has also learned the routine of hunger marketing, and the supply is limited every day, and it does not wait for the expiration.

Whether you are a dignitary or a relative of the emperor, you have to line up.

Of course, dignitaries and relatives of the emperor will not come to line up, and people can collect wine from others at a high price.

Just as a few people were wandering around the brewery, a roe deer brain peddler stepped forward.

"A few of them came from other places, did they come here to admire the fine wine in Yunzhou?"

For the time being, Yunzhou wine is only sold in a few big cities, so there are many people from other places who come here.

Not bad!

Guo Jia smiled and nodded.

The man said with a smile on his face: "It's a coincidence that a few people came, the wine shop in this Xu Capital City opened before dawn, and it only sells a hundred jars of wine every day." Usually the time of a stick of incense is snatched up. In Xu Ducheng, where there are more than 100,000 people, a hundred jars of wine is not enough to stuff your teeth. I'm afraid I'm going to have to run empty today. ”

Because of the existence of these people, Xu Du gave birth to a new profession - liquor dealers!

They line up at the winery before dawn every day, spend money to buy Yunzhou's fine wine, and sell it when they come out.

As a result, Yunzhou's fine wine is very sought-after, and many people rush to sell it at a higher price, and the price is more than twice the ex-factory price, but it is still in short supply.

Ordinary people can't drink it at all.

Seeing the price here that was almost twice as high, Wang Yue couldn't help but sigh a little, it's better to be in Yunzhou.

It is said that the reason why he is willing to stay in Yunzhou is because of his gratitude to Guo Jia on the one hand, and because of the wine in Yunzhou on the other hand.

He's an out-and-out drunkard.

At present, the supply of wineries in Yunzhou has increased, and Yunzhou wine is not so popular, as the master of the young master, Wang Yue has a respected status in the General's Mansion, and drinking is naturally enough.

So in Yunzhou, Wang Yue does not have a situation where he can't buy wine.
