Cao Cao is king!

In fact, this throne was not usurped by Cao Cao himself, but the throne personally canonized by Liu Xie, the current son of the Han Dynasty.

Cao Cao went south to attack Jiangdong Misukou, although he did not succeed in taking Jiangdong, but he gained a great advantage in the battle with Sun Quan, from March to September, a full half a year, the two sides were deadlocked for a long time, Cao Cao has always had the advantage, Sun Quan can only be passive defense.

If it weren't for Cao Cao's lack of food and grass, and he was afraid that Liu Bei would intervene, the snipe and the clam would fight, and the fisherman would benefit, he was afraid that he would not be willing to retreat.

Although Cao Cao returned in vain, Sun Quan was greater in the loss of soldiers and horses, and in the eyes of the civil and military ministers, this was a victory.

Now that Cao Cao is old, he has never said anything further.

But the civil and military forces under his command couldn't help it either.

First, they hoped that Cao Cao would go further, so that they could also follow the chicken dog to ascend to heaven.

Second, they were loyal to Cao Cao, and seeing Cao Cao's old age, they also hoped that Cao Cao could take that step in his lifetime.

Therefore, after Cao Cao led his troops to return north, the civil and military ministers invited Liu Xie, the current son of heaven, to canonize Cao Cao as king.

Liu Xie is just a puppet, although Cao Cao did not speak, but he could not bear the persecution of his subordinate Wu Qunchen, so he had to canonize Cao Cao as the king of Wei, 30,000 households, located on the princes and kings, do not call the ministers, accept the edict and do not worship, with the crown of the Son of Heaven, the car uniform, the flag, the suburbs of the world of etiquette, in and out of the police, the temple, the ancestors, and the La are all like the Han system, the capital of the country is Yecheng, and the eight counties of Jizhou are located in the land of Wei.

He also gave Cao Cao the crown of two out of ten, riding a gold and silver car, driving six horses, and setting up a five-hour deputy car, after Cao Cao ascended the throne as the king, he made Cao Pi the prince of Wei with the five facial features.

Although he is not an emperor, he is better than an emperor!

Liu Bei, who heard the news, was furious, his eyes were split, and his beard trembled: "Cao thief dares to be the king, hateful, hateful!" Gaozu once made a rule, non-descendants of the Liu family are not allowed to be crowned kings, Your Majesty will not knowingly commit crimes, it can be seen that this is Cao Cao coerced with his life, and the order is to go down, I want to go to the Northern Expedition Cao thief to save Your Majesty in the sea of fire! ”

"Huh?" The scout who gave the order looked blind, it's already October, and you send troops? Is it possible to fight in winter?

When Liu Chan heard the news, he saw that Liu Bei had given such an order and did not stop it.

He knew that Liu Bei was just doing it for the world to see.

Liu Bei has always regarded himself as the emperor's uncle of the Han Dynasty and a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, and now that Cao Cao is the king, it is impossible for Liu Bei not to react.

Later, a group of civil and military officers rushed to get the news.

Now is not the best opportunity for the Northern Expedition, first of all, the time to recuperate is only a year, sweet potatoes and corn have just been promoted and planted in various places, and there is not much grain and grass hoarded.

Secondly, it is already October, and even if you want to use troops, you have to wait until the beginning of spring next year, otherwise if you use troops now, you will have to fight in the ice and snow when you get to Guanzhong.

Therefore, all the civil and military officials said that Liu Bei also borrowed the slope to get off the donkey and withdrew the order to attack Cao Cao.

At the same time, Liu Bei ordered Zhuge Liang to write an essay condemning Cao Cao's crimes, which can be regarded as expressing his attitude.

Zhang Song, Fa Zheng and the others looked at Liu Bei and opened their mouths, but they still didn't speak.

In fact, if there are three points today, holding high the banner of the Han is no longer useful, those who are loyal to the Han and have feelings for the Han are almost in the ground, and most of the rest are a new generation of people who have no feelings for the Han anymore.

The talents are almost distributed, even if Liu Bei is now how to set up the banner of a loyal man, the effect is not great.

For example, Cao Cao ascended to the throne as king, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were Cao Cao's henchmen, and no one spoke for Liu Xie.

Therefore, now is actually the best time to persuade Liu Bei to be the king, but last time they suggested that Liu Bei be the king, Liu Bei was refuted, and this time the king will not succeed, so they can say it.

Yecheng.

Wei Wangfu.

Cao Cao was dressed in a red and black dragon robe, and wore a crown of twelve heavenly crowns.

Compared with the defeat in Hanzhong the year before last, Cao Cao is now full of energy and spirit, and he failed on Liu Bei's side, but in the past two years, he has found a sense of existence in attacking Sun Quan.

On the dragon table in front of Cao Cao were a sweet potato found by a fist and a piece of corn.

Now it is the second year of corn and sweet potato planting, and in the first year, enough seeds have been accumulated, and in the second year, Liu Bei planted it on a large scale in Yizhou, and promoted it to the whole of Yizhou and even Hanzhong.

As a result, sweet potatoes and corn cannot be hidden.

If you get it on the bright side, you will definitely be seen.

No, now that the sweet potatoes and corn are ripe, there are Wei spies who steal the people's sweet potatoes, and the corn is taken back to Wei.

Fortunately, Liu Bei knows the importance of sweet potatoes and corn, and Yizhou is the country of abundance, surrounded by mountains, Liu Bei sent soldiers and horses to guard various exits, and the main roads, even if the Wei spies obtained a large number of sweet potatoes in Yizhou, the corn could not be transported.

The little bit of sweet potato corn in front of Cao Cao was still transported out by spies over the mountains and mountains in every possible way, and it was almost eaten by the tiger in the mountains and forests, but despite this, it was only transported so little.

"Can you eat this thing?" Cao Cao played with sweet potatoes curiously.

The spy arched his hand and said: "Now the people of Yizhou plant this in every household, one of these two things is called sweet potato, the other is called corn, and the fields of the people of Yizhou are now planted with sixty percent of these two things!" ”

"Hmm......" Cao Cao frowned, looked at the sweet potato in his hand, wiped it with his sleeve, and took a bite on the sweet potato.

"King Wei!" Cheng Yu, Sima Yi and the others were shocked, where can this thing be eaten casually.

Cao Cao took a bite of a sweet potato and slowly tasted it in his mouth, and then his eyes lit up, and he said to the spy: "This thing is sweet and tastes excellent, why don't you bring some more, you can taste it too?" ”

Cao Cao said, handing over the sweet potatoes in his hands to a group of civil and military personnel.

Cheng Yu took the sweet potato, and Xu Chu pulled out his sword and slice it and shared it with the people.

The spy was embarrassed: "King Qiwei, Liu Bei is very interested in this thing, Yizhou is surrounded by mountains, he has sent soldiers and horses to strictly guard all places, we can't send it out at all, this is still the villain's desperate life to send out." ”

"Oh?" Cao Cao's brows furrowed again when he heard this: "Liu Bei attaches so much importance to these two things, what is the benefit?" He refused to leak it! ”

The spy explained: "Duke Wei, the yield of this corn per mu is five hundred catties, and the yield of sweet potatoes per mu is thousands of catties, and the yield is so high, Liu Bei naturally refuses to leak it." ”

"How is that possible!" Cheng Yu was shocked when he heard this: "How can there be such a high-yield grain in this world?" ”

"How is that possible?"

"Liu Bei is already so powerful now, and now he has this thing, who will ...... then?"

"What a good thing that is!"

"God bless Liu Bei, why can he get this artifact?"

His Royal Highness's ministers immediately discussed, and Cao Cao suddenly felt a sharp pain in his forehead, and the head wind that had been good for two years was committed again.

Cao Cao covered his forehead, pointed to the spy who came back from transporting sweet potatoes and corn and said: "Don't you know about farming when you are the king, how can there be such a high-yield grain in this world, you dare to deceive me and confuse people's hearts, don't you vote for Liu Bei, come on, pull him down and cut him down for me!" ”
