Chapter 104 Cao's troubles lie in Xiao Wall!

"Da Sima is invincible, invincible, and his exploits are incomparable, and he is treated so lightly today, how can it be reasonable?"

"Prime Minister Cao Cheng's arrangement is indeed unpopular, why do you have to fly all the birds, hide the good bow, die of cunning rabbits, and cook ...... This matter has to be guarded against! ”

"Instead of sitting still, let's fight to the west, occupy Guanzhong, Bingzhou, and Liangzhou, and then close the gate of Hangu Pass, and we can't cut the land as the king!"

………………………………………………

Xuanjia Battalion-In the Chinese Army Tent, Ma Liu, Da Niu, Dian Wei, Gao Shun, Song Xian, Wei Xu, Zhang Xiu, Cao Xing...... One by one, they were angry and discussed, they were all feeling unfair for Xiao Yi and worried about the future!

Since the Northern Expedition, Xiao Yi has made the greatest contribution, first conquering the state, defeating the Xiongnu, and designing to recapture the Qiantao Plain; Then went east to rescue, replaced the soldiers with water, eliminated more than 100,000 alien iron horses, and now victory is in sight, Yecheng is about to be broken, but it was kicked away, isn't it slow to treat the heroes?

Yecheng is the old nest of the Yuan family, and it is also the first place in Hebei, with gold bricks and silver ingots, rare treasures...... But the mountains are piled up, and there are countless beautiful Jiao'e, and now they have given up the siege, for the generals here, it is equivalent to one less opportunity to make a fortune, how can everyone not complain?

Resentment is hatred, hatred is anger, the generals are already hot-tempered, and they suddenly burst out, accusing the prime minister of being unfair and hurting the heroes.

In the face of the fierce remarks of the generals, Xiao Yi didn't say a word, and there was no joy or sadness on his face, just gathered his ghostly gaze and stared at a map of Jizhou!

Jizhou is fertile for thousands of miles, with a household registration of one million, and is an important grain-producing area, only in terms of prosperity and wealth, it is the best of the thirteen states in the world, to put it mildly, ten states combined, and not as good as a Jizhou, only Jingzhou and Yizhou barely look at it!

People in the world often say: 'Those who get Jizhou get the Central Plains, and those who get the Central Plains get the world', such a piece of Longxing land, who doesn't want to get it into their own hands, with the depth of Xiao Yi's city, at this time I was also moved!

The problem is that he is not the only one who is eyeing this big fat meat, but his father-in-law is also eyeing him, in the original history, after Cao Cao pacified Hebei, he did not appoint anyone else, but personally led the 'Jizhou Mu', even if he was powerful in the world, after entering the King of Wei, he still did not give up Jizhou, but sat in Yecheng and controlled the Han Dynasty by remote control!

It can be seen that Cao Cao will not give up the position of Jizhou Mu to others, let alone his own son-in-law, even his own son, unless one day, the traitorous soul returns to the underworld, and he will let go of the authority in his hands!

Xiao Yi has been taking refuge in the Cao family for ten years, fighting in the south and the north, blocking the east and killing in the west, thirsty for knife blood, trapped in the saddle, suffering countless hardships, and making countless meritorious achievements, but now when victory is in sight, he has been frequently suppressed, how can there be no resentment in his heart?

However, no matter how much resentment there is, you must hide it in your heart, keep it forbearing, and focus on the country's society, as for the suggestion of the generals to 'wave the army to the west and cut off the king', Xiao Yi has also thought about it repeatedly, but he can't really implement it, not because he has no strength, not because he has no courage, but he can't bear it in his heart!

One: Cao Ying's group fought in the south and the north, swept away the heroes, and was about to unify the Central Plains, if Xiao Yi cut the alleged king, he would inevitably break with Cao Cao, see each other with swords, and the lives would be ruined, and the Central Plains would fall into war again, how could he bear it?

Two: Ten years, getting along day and night, between Xiao and Cao, there has long been a blood blend, and the brothers Cao Cao, Cao Jie, and Cao Pi are brothers...... Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Xun You...... Once a break occurs, Xiao Yi's family, love, and friendship will be lost, and the price is too heavy!

couldn't break up, so he had to endure it, but he was angry in his heart, and he really didn't vomit or be unhappy, Xiao Yi touched his little black face and thought about how to deal with it...... Cao's biggest problem is not on the battlefield, but within Xiao Qiang!

"Zihuan was ordered by the Prime Minister to come to meet Da Sima, and comfort the generals, fighting on the battlefield, and working hard!"

No one expected that Cao Pi suddenly came to the big tent, holding a prime minister's order, followed by more than a dozen entourages, all holding gold seals, armor, swords, and house deeds...... It's all a reward!

Cao Cao I was a traitor, proficient in the way of power and strategy, knew that his methods were hurtful, and he was also afraid of provoking internal contradictions, so he sent his second son, Cao Pi, to reward a group of generals to make up for the rift between the two sides, and by the way to test Xiao Yi's reaction, does he have the heart to support the army and stand on his own?

"No worries on behalf of the whole battalion soldiers, thank you for the reward of the Prime Minister, the grace is as high as the sky, the derby is deep, only by being loyal to their duties and bravely killing the enemy, can they be rewarded!"

Xiao Yi stepped forward and bowed, looking grateful, and the dissatisfaction in his heart was not revealed at all, and then he took the order with both hands and looked through the content on it!

The traitorous male made a move, and he was really generous, Ma Liu, Da Niu, Dian Wei, Gao Shun...... All the generals, or add officials to the knighthood, or give wives and sons, everyone has a reward, money, housing, fertile land, beautiful women...... And even more!

In addition, 100,000 taels of gold, 1 million strings of copper coins, 200,000 horses of silk, and a large number of fine wine, cattle and sheep were used to reward ordinary soldiers. ’

Among them, there is a special reward, which is dedicated to Xiao Yi, not an official position, title, money, or beauty...... These are no longer meaningful, but a 'edict!' ’

The master of Xiao Yi is: Jinque Cloud Palace - Nine Dome Calendar - Wandao Wuwei - out of the dust real person, one of the Taoist gods, can build temples, plastic gold bodies, set up altars, the court funds and support, and will always be sacrificed by incense!

Xiao Yi's origin is mysterious, known as the founding prime minister - Xiao He, but he doesn't know the names of his parents, nor his siblings, relatives of the same clan, for this reason, some people have checked in all directions, but there are no clues, and some people pretend to be members of the Xiao clan, run to the Wuwu Hou Mansion to recognize their relatives, and they were all beaten out by random sticks!

Some people also asked Ma Liu and Da Niu privately, wanting to know some information, but the two of them were at a loss and couldn't say anything, when they met Xiao Yi, they were already thirteen years old, and before that they were blank, as if falling from the sky!

The world only knows that Xiao Yi is a Youzhou-Yuyang person, who once served as a little Taoist priest, and has a mentor named 'Out of the Dust', and even in the family temple of the Wuwu Hou Mansion, there is also a spirit card of the old way!

Cao Cao took this as a starting point, held up the old way, and was one of the Taoist gods, Xiao Yi missed the kindness of his master, and always wanted to have something in return, so naturally he couldn't refuse, so the relationship between the two sides was eased!

Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Taoism has been declining, Xiao Yi inherited the last wish of his teacher, has the mission of revitalizing Taoism, and just reached a political deal: a unified army to conquer, expand the territory, and continue to be a capable minister of the Cao family; One uses the power in his hands to help the revival of Taoism and fulfill Xiao Yi's wish!

"I wish all the generals, new achievements on the battlefield, glory and wealth, and princes for all generations!"

"Drink well! - Win the drink! --Everyone is not drunk today! ”

………………

Next, Xiao Yi held a banquet to celebrate his achievements with a group of generals, and sent people to distribute gold, copper coins, silk, wine and meat to the soldiers, and the whole army was happy!

Cao Pi also stayed, wandering around, frequently raising his glasses, contacting the generals, creating contacts for himself, taking advantage of the strong alcohol and everyone being drunk, he returned to Xiao Yi's side and secretly asked a difficult question - how to compete for the reserve?

Since Cao Cao left the Northern Expedition, on the one hand, he has strategized, won the battle, and eliminated his lifelong rival Yuan, on the other hand, he has secretly observed, tested his heirs, and seen who is suitable to be the heir!

Judging from the current situation, several sons have their own characteristics, Cao Pi is smart, Cao Zhi is smart, and Cao Zhang is brave, so that their father is also difficult to choose, as for who can get the storage position, I'm afraid there is still a competition?

Cao Pi came this time, firstly, to reward the generals, win the hearts of the people in the army, and create momentum for his superiority; The second is to seek Xiao Yi's support and ask for a way to seize the storage position!

"Since ancient times, those who win the hearts of the people win the world, if the second son wants to get what he wants, he needs to work hard in the hearts of the people, usually be loyal and filial, be a good son, but also a good brother, a good brother, the death of the eldest son ......"

For the brothers of the Cao family, Xiao Yi treats them equally, never participates in the battle for the storage position, and avoids being burned, but now, one report and one report, he also has to stand in political line!

Thinking of this, Xiao Yi drank all the wine in the cup in one gulp, and then put it on Cao Pi's ear and muttered softly, while the latter was happy and nodded frequently!

……………………………………………………………………………………

Within a few days, Xiao Yi led the army to attack the city and began to conquer the city, and the men and horses were divided into three roads, Ma Liu's army attacked Guangping, Julu, Changshan, and Zhongshan counties, Zhang Xiu's army attacked Yangping, Pingyuan, and Leping counties, and Xiao Yi personally attacked Qinghe, Anping, Bohai, and Hejian...... The army is like a tide, mighty, sweeping through the city of Jizhou!

Yuan's army has been defeated repeatedly, the men and horses have been lost, and there is the strength to resist, so wherever the banner of the word "Xiao" goes, the counties and counties have surrendered to the wind, obediently surrendered, and did not encounter any trouble, in just over a month, they took the land of the twelve counties of Jizhou, and also cut off all the retreats of Yuan Shang!

After attacking the city and plundering the land, Xiao Yi stationed troops in Bohai County, accumulated grain and grass, trained soldiers and horses, and made various preparations for the next attack on Youzhou, and finally returned to his hometown!

At the same time, Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan's eastward men and horses also conquered the entire territory of Qingzhou, and then marched westward, converging with the brigade in Zhangshui, Yecheng was like an isolated island, falling into the vast sea of Cao's army!

Similarly, the three brothers Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, and Cao Zhi also gathered together, and the battle for Cao's storage position is about to enter a climax!
