When Li Shushi's side was still struggling with whether to eat the Hedong County and Hanoi County sent by Dong Zhuo, the actions of the Kwantung princes did not fall behind, because you have to remember: time is money, it is a qiΔ, my friend
Among these princes who are preparing for war, it seems that the most sloppy is Cao Cao, the former military captain of the West Garden, who escaped from Luoyang.
The princes are fighting for Dong, the princes are talking about Dong, and the people who participated in this joint crusade against Dong Zhuo were all guys known as the princes. Since they are called princes, they must be the real power figures of the dominant side. Although the county lords and state governors were far from the power and strength that followed, they were at least nominally the supreme leaders of the lands under their jurisdiction and had a large number of armies.
But there were two surprises.
One is Yuan Shu, the son of the Yuan family of the fourth and third dukes, and the other is Cao Mengde, who is still a mere captain.
The fourth generation and three dukes of the Yuan family, the protΓ©gΓ©s and former officials are all over the world, and their own strength is also the first-class existence of the Han dynasty. So don't look at Yuan Shu only got the false title of a post-general, but after returning to Runan, he just climbed the heights and shouted, and immediately Runan, Nanyang and other places went up to officials, captains, and reckless people, and all the scholars gathered around him, and all kinds of materials and venues were complete. And for this blatant behavior, both the Taishou and the county magistrate completely turned a blind eye and turned a deaf ear.
And what about Cao Cao? Although Qian County is Cao Cao's own family, the Cao family also has some prestige there. But once the Cao family came from a eunuch, Cao Cao's father Cao Song had a really bad reputation in Shilin. Moreover, Peiguo, where Qiaoxian is located, has suffered from natural disasters in the past two years**, and the population has been greatly lost, and Cao Cao is very doubtful about how many people he can recruit there.
Therefore, Cao Cao chose to defect to his young friend Zhang Miao. On the one hand, it is because the relationship between the two people is really good, and on the other hand, it is also because Zhang Miao is bold, and he will receive a lot less criticism by living there, and maybe even get some unexpected gains from Zhang Miao.
In this way, Cao Cao took the edict drafted by Wang Yun and others to Chenliu County, the seat of Chenliu County.
Zhang Miao really lived up to the reputation of one of the "Eight Kitchens", not only warmly received Cao Cao, but also assigned Jiwu County to Cao Cao for him to recruit soldiers and horses to hoard grain and grass, and at the same time introduced Wei Zi, a famous family in the county and his own subordinate officer, to Cao Cao.
Wei Zi is a native of Xiangyi County, not far from Jiwu, and once raised filial piety, but later his career was not smooth, so he returned to his hometown to study, even if it was the Three Princes, he should not be. It was not until the imperial court lifted the ban on the party that he accepted Chen Liutai's expedition to guard Zhang Miao and became his subordinate officials.
Cao Cao deserves to be Cao Cao, but he just had a meal with Wei Zi and talked all night, so that Wei Zi praised his wife with excitement after returning home: "Whoever is in the world must be this person." At the same time, he made the decision to help Cao Cao even if he poured out all his family assets.
After handing over the edict to Zhang Miao for him to issue on his behalf or find a suitable person to announce to the world, Cao Cao was relieved to recruit talents, recruit soldiers, hoard grain, grass and ordnance, and at the same time write to his relatives, inviting them to join him in the great event.
"Mengde!"
One day, just as Cao Cao was still buried in the case, having a headache for various military affairs, a loud but familiar voice rushed in from outside.
It's just that obviously because the official duties are too heavy, although the voice is very familiar, but Cao Cao, who stopped his work and raised his head slightly, is full of confusion, as if when you add new tasks to a computer that is already overloaded, the computer always has to react slowly for half a day before continuing to run.
However, soon an excited smile gradually floated from Cao Cao's face, it was as if he had seen a savior, but the stiff facial muscles made this smile more difficult to open than crying. Of course, after a while, someone may show a truly miserable look, which is more like a crying expression than the crying smile on Cao Cao's face now.
"Meng De, I haven't seen you for many days~" As a cold wind blew into the warm tent, a loud and clear voice diffused throughout the tent, allowing Cao Cao, who had no time to cover his ears, to enjoy the double stimulation of cold wind and noise. Then, two figures appeared in front of Cao Cao with the cold wind and the echo in the tent, but they were the Xiahou brothers who had returned from their studies.
"Yuan Rang, Miaocai, you can be regarded as coming."
For these two stunned youths, Cao Cao secretly said to himself to be calm, while thinking about something and showed a bright smile, and that smile actually carried a scorching heat that seemed to be able to evaporate all the cold air of the Xiahou brothers.
After that, there was a bear hug between Cao Cao and the Xiahou brothers, and the heat of the mood made the temperature in the tent rise a lot. But it is precisely this pure emotional release that makes Cao Cao, who has been tired after many days of hard work, suddenly have new strength.
After that, it is naturally a time for the people to gossip and chat.
"Since you have already raised troops, how can the two of us not come?" Xiahou Yuanrang is still so energetic, well, naturally stay~
"But we were also surprised when they suddenly sent us money and told us to recruit some soldiers along the way. Mengde, what's the use of us recruiting those recruits, I'm afraid they can only drag down the entire army. β
It's just a pity that this is not a two-dimensional world, so the natural stay of Xiahou is not a complaining service, but a Xiahou Yuan Miaocai who looks very stable and reliable on weekdays, but becomes a hot-blooded middle two when he arrives on the battlefield.
"Let's not talk about that, what about your soldiers?"
"Lining up outside, it's all trained by the skills we learned from Bingzhou, and we're about to surprise you~ When you get to the battlefield, you can see our skills, don't be surprised when the time comes~"
Hey, hey, hey, just said that this is not a two-dimensional world, for the god Ma Xiahou will turn your lips into a three-petal mouth, are you maliciously selling cuteness, you must be maliciously selling cuteness!
"Well, if you two good brothers fight side by side, I will feel much more at ease."
Well, although he said something that felt grounded, why did Cao Cao feel like he wanted to cry.
"By the way, what about Cao Ren's kid, did you say that Cao Hong is also coming?" Xiahoudun said with his left fist as if he suddenly thought of something.
"Oh, yes. Yuan let you not say that I forgot, I just wanted to find Zixiao to compete. β
"Yes, I always listen to those guys praise Zixiao, I Xiahou Yuanrang absolutely can't"
"This ...... I don't have any news here......" Seeing the spontaneous combustion of the two people as if no one was there, Cao Cao suddenly felt that although the training effect on Li Shushi's side was very amazing, it seemed that he had also taught some "habits" over there.
But soon, the originally warm smile on Cao Cao's face became gloomy, and the Xiahou brothers, who had a little intuition on the battlefield, felt the gloomy gaze from their side. However, in the face of Cao Cao's absolute trembling, no matter how strong the Xiahou brothers are, they will inevitably become two trembling little pitifuls in the corner of the camp.
A few days later......
"Report!" The voice of the guards sounded outside Cao Cao's tent.
"What?"
"Two big men led troops to join our army."
Although the guards reported that the words were correct and round, his heart was extremely uncalm at the moment, because he saw a gray-white figure lying on each of the two low tables in the camp tent where Cao Cao was under his hand, and there seemed to be some strange objects floating above the figure that were vague but could feel the distinct facial features.
"Don't look at indecency, don't ignore indecency......" The guards could only "admonish" themselves in this way. He didn't have much to do, just get the news to his lord, otherwise he was afraid that he would be a guest in the brook not far away, along with the stones.
"Could it be Zixiao and Zilian?" x2
Hearing the guard's report, the two lumps of things that were originally gray and white immediately returned to their original colors. I saw the excitement on Xiahou Yuan's face, and Xiahou Yuan also looked eager to try. As for the reason for their excitement, it is really not enough for outsiders.
"Pass them in!"
"No!"
It didn't take long for two people to walk into the tent.
One of the older men had a strong face and a burly figure, and at first glance he knew that he was a brave man. The other has a much more beautiful face, but if you think that he is just a weak scholar, it is very wrong, because both the bulging muscles and the evil spirit are enough to prove that he is also a ruthless character.
"Are you two going to join our army?" Cao Cao's tone was a little excited, although he didn't know what the strength of the two was, but someone was willing to join his own small force that had no territory and no reputation, Cao Cao was really a little overjoyed.
"Exactly, under Li Qian, the word Boyang. For the sake of the world, adults sent volunteers to fight against national thieves. The villain was deeply moved, so he came to defect. Please be sure to accept an adult. β
"Under Li Dian, the word Mancheng. I thought like my uncle, so I followed him to join him. Adult, please do it. β
"It's great that you and other outstanding people have joined our army as soon as we raise our troops! I, Cao Mengde, welcome you two to join! β
"Thank you, sir!" x2γ
More than ten days passed......
"Huhu...... Yes, I'm sorry...... I'm late...... a rolling gourd came into the tent.
"Huhu...... Lord Cao Cao, huhu...... Please, please let me, let us join in your tent as well......" Another rolling gourd came into the tent.
"Haha, Zixiao and Zilian, you are finally here. I have already received your letters, but why is it so late? β
Looking at the appearance of the two wolves in front of him, Cao Cao really didn't know what kind of expression he should show.
"Huhu...... Call...... Because of the recruitment of non-commissioned soldiers and the deployment of military equipment, it was delayed for a while. Cao Ren's expression was a little embarrassed, and at the same time a little helpless.
"Huhu...... I, I was ready for a long time, it's all Cao Ren's guy who is too rigid and delays time. I've never seen him like this before, why haven't I seen him for a few years, but he has become like this, isn't he possessed by something......" Sure enough, as soon as Cao Ren's words fell, Cao Hong immediately jumped up.
"What! It's all on me, who is pushing back for that little bit of military funding. And do you know the importance of military discipline, if you don't respect orders on the battlefield, you will suffer a big loss! β
"It's said that you're too anxious, it's not right to spend money like that, if you don't save carefully, you can only drink the northwest wind in the future!"
"Okay, okay, don't make any noise~ No matter what Zixiao said, he has also dealt with the Hu people in the grassland outside the Saiwai, so it is understandable that he has a higher vision. Zilian has been in charge of the family's property for many years, and has been a subordinate official and chief official in the local area for many years, so it is naturally not easy to be in charge. Don't worry, it will give you all the opportunity to show your strengths, and do it well in the future~" At the critical moment, it depends on Boss Cao.
"Yes, my subordinates have orders!" "No problem, it's up to me!"
"Okay, time is pressing, we have to step up our training during this time, and then meet with the princes to take a look at the heroes of the world."
Seeing that the two cute things that were originally gray over there suddenly burned again, Cao Cao could only change the topic immediately.
"Oh!"
These are six excited voices.
It's a small, energetic team.
What kind of waves will they make in the future? Let's wait and see.......
