Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 466 Cao Cao can also act?

The position of General Chaqi was after the Han court changed its reign, Yuan Shao was unwilling to be lonely, so he conferred such an official position for himself.What makes people feel very strange is that the Han Dynasty expressed the principle of three nos about this matter: don't know, don't deny, and don't admit it.

Then, this official position was placed on Yuan Shao's head, which was a bit like a mouse marrying a bride.He himself made a big noise in Jizhou's nest, but the other states and counties of the Han Dynasty didn't even show any signs of it.

However, Cao Cao doesn't care whether Yuan Shao is a chariot general or a hussar general, as long as he can help him, even Cao Cao, who is Yuan Shao's self-appointed marshal of the canopy, will recognize him.Hearing this, his eyes lit up, he quickly stood up and said to the soldier, "Please come quickly."

But after seeing that sharp awl-like face, Cao Cao's heart immediately became tired and crooked.Sure enough, before that person entered the account, it sounded like the sound of an iron gun point rubbing against a bronze mirror: "Ah man, I haven't seen you for several years, you still look good."

At this time, Cao Cao was wearing a Ge robe, which was washed white, and there were a few patches on the cuffs.Compared with Xu You, who was wearing a brand new cotton coat, he looked like a beggar on the street.Everyone knows that this cotton padded jacket is produced in Guanzhong, Hanting. It is said that it is made from silk clouds in the sky.

Comparing the hatchback, Cao Cao, who was not heroic at first, looked even poorer, but Xu You still uttered such sarcastic remarks, which naturally made people disliked.Even though Cao Cao had known Xu You in Luoyang back then, after Xu You got acquainted with Yuan Shao, the relationship between the two gradually became estranged.At this time, he was so unrestrained, saying that he was affectionate and reminiscing about the old days, but Cao Cao didn't have any joy in his heart.

Fortunately, Xu You still knew what he was doing here, so after entering the account, he casually bowed to Cao Cao, "My general sends his greetings to Mr. Cao."

'What a fart! Cao Cao endured it, pretending not to hear Xu You's previous ridicule, and said in a businesslike manner: "I also turn to Yuan Cheqi for Cao." This is equivalent to Cao Cao's recognition of Yuan Shao, and at the same time, he also pulled away I used to be friends with Xu You, which means that you and I should just talk about business matters today.

But Xu You showed a very subtle smile, and then said: "Hebei has been in a tense battle recently, and my general has been working day and night. It is really stretched and hard to support."

When Cao Cao heard this, he felt as uncomfortable as eating a fly.Where is there any war going on in Hebei now, Xu You deliberately put this up front, making it clear that he wanted to block his way of borrowing troops and food.Therefore, he was no longer in the mood to deal with Xu You, so he just asked perfunctorily, "Then why are you here, sir?"

Xu You lowered his head at this time, making it hard to see his expression, but the voice was clearly transmitted to the big tent: "The land of Dongjun is a major river, and there has been a famine recently. My general couldn't bear the suffering of the people, so he decided to send Zang Hong temporarily acts as the prefect of the Eastern Commandery, so I will report to the envoy on this occasion."

Cao Cao's fists tucked into his sleeves were clenched suddenly, and he could hear clearly that Xu You came here to inform him, not to discuss with him!You know, Cao Cao had already appointed Xiahou Dun as the prefect of Dongjun.At this moment, Yuan Shao saw that he was poor and alone, and he took whatever he said, which was simply adding insult to injury.

It's a pity that whether you speak confidently or not depends on whether your arms are thick or not.Now that Cao Cao was too late to deal with Lv Bu, he couldn't care less about Yuan Shao meddling in Yanzhou's affairs, so he could only sneer and replied, "General Chariot and Cavalry loves the people like his own son, he is truly admirable."

Only then did Xu You slowly raise his head, with a little embarrassment on his face, but everyone could see that it was just Xu You's posturing, and his tone was still as annoying as before: "Zang Ziyuan is just acting on his behalf, and this matter can be dealt with in Yanzhou." We will discuss it after we settle down."

"En." Cao Cao snorted from the tip of his nose, and turned to his desk, pretending to read the military report.This action is already obvious, telling Xu You, "I'm busy, I have nothing to do, so get out of here."

But Xu You didn't seem to realize it, and bowed to Cao Cao: "General Cheqi has another proposal. Now Yanzhou is in chaos. It's difficult to deal with it. Why don't you lead the rest of Henan to Hebei and join Che The cavalry general joins forces in one place, and wait for the time to return to this place?"

Finally, Cao Cao raised his head and looked at Xu You's pointed neck carefully, as if he was looking at where it would be easier to cut with a knife.And Xu You still didn't realize it, and looked back at Cao Cao with a half-smile, his gaze not only didn't dodge, but wanted to see Cao Cao's murderous intent on his own initiative.

At this moment, Cao Cao really wanted to kill Xu You with his sword. At the beginning, he planned to get rid of Yuan Shao and escape from Hebei.Now suffering setbacks, Yuan Shao wants to recruit him back again.Once I go back, I will inevitably live the life of living under the fence again, which means that many years of hard work will be wiped out in an instant!
What's more, Yuan Shao was deeply afraid of what he did in Yanzhou, and if he entered the prison again, Yuan Shao would probably say that he would not let him go.

So, at this time, Cao Cao laughed.

Everyone in the account knows that Cao Cao seldom kills in anger, and those close to him know that even if Cao Cao kills in anger, it is just a feint.When he really wanted to kill someone, he smiled very gently, as if he was trying to find a reason why he shouldn't kill him.

But at this time, Xu You looked completely reckless, and had to make an inch to throw out a threat: "Your Majesty went to conquer Xuzhou, and my general sent three battalions to help. Now Hebei is raging in Heishan, and the battle in Wei County is tight. Zhu Ling and others The Ministry should also be ordered to go back!"

The smile on Cao Cao's face suddenly froze. Now, apart from Xiahoudun's Yanzhou soldiers who still scruple about military orders and dare not be traitors, there are only a few Qingzhou soldiers with weak fighting spirit.The only main force that can be used is Zhu Ling's three battalions of soldiers. These days, Cao Cao is taking the soldiers from Hebei as his guests. It was like beating Cao Cao to the bone and sucking the marrow again, which made Cao Cao unbearably painful.

But without waiting for Cao Cao's reply, Xu You's words suddenly softened again, and he continued the topic just now: "You also know the suffering of Ah Man. In the past, the Yellow Turbans in Yanzhou were rampant. If Ah Man hadn't fought hard, how could it not be calmed down? Afterwards, Ah Man To tell you that you fought against Yuan Shu in the south, and attacked Tao Qian in the east, you really owe a lot to the people here. But the treacherous villain is also fearful. You see death as home, and you are not afraid of powerful enemies, but you just have the heart to make your family suffer?"

After saying this, Xu You looked at Cao Cao, who was in a state of turmoil, and hit the rails while it was hot: "Ah, you might as well move your family to Hebei for refuge first. General Cheqi will see that his family has arrived but he will not come. I will know that you have vowed to protect Yanzhou." Decided, maybe it will be moved. At that time, Ji You will say a few words for A Cong, begging my general to send troops here to help the general put down this chaos, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"

Xu You spoke grandly, but to put it bluntly, he wanted to take hostages.The hostage was given to Yuan Shao, and Cao Cao was controlled by Yuan Shao, which was no different from taking refuge in him.After Cao Cao heard this, his expression became calm and calm, but he couldn't see any trace of sarcasm. He just nodded and said: "Although this matter is a private matter, it also involves a lot. Sir, please wait here for a while, I still need to talk to you Discuss with the officials."

Xu You also nodded in satisfaction, bowed his hands and bid farewell: "Then I will wait for the envoy to make a decision."

Then, when Xu You had just exited the big tent, Cao Cao's expression changed suddenly, he drew out the Yitian Sword from his waist, and cut the case with one sword.When the people in the tent saw this, their faces changed, especially Xia Houdun, who immediately stood up and said, "Meng De, you must not do this. In the past, you were in Hebei, and you knew that you would leave your family in Chenliu. Now that Yuan Shao is taking advantage of the fire, you It is absolutely impossible for a hero to be short of breath and mess up his position."

But Cao Cao remained silent, and after a while, he opened his mouth and replied: "One time and another time, people's hearts are scattered today and cannot be restrained. We should follow the expedient strategy."

As soon as this remark came out, Mao Jie also stood up and said angrily: "My family is still in the village, and I have never heard of the rebels looting. We are not afraid of a strong enemy. Why is your envoy like this? I have never heard of it, not for the sake of the country. , and those who seek for themselves can rule the world!"

These words were very strong, but Cao Cao didn't seem to be aroused to fight. He just spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "Xiaoxian's words are also reasonable."

Xia Houyuan on the side also wanted to speak at this time, but he couldn't make any sense in his desperation, so he poked Guo Jia beside him, and whispered: "Jijiu, you should also persuade Meng De!"

But Guo Jia seemed to be thinking about other things, with a dazed look, he just casually replied in a low voice: "What is the persuasion, this is the lord trying to test the loyalty of the subordinates, you and I are not in the ranks, why bother? "

"You mean?...The clan brother is here, acting?" Xia Houyuan held back for a long time before he came up with such a very fitting phrase that came from Guanzhong.

"Well, yes, it's just acting. However, compared with our emperor, this acting skill is probably much worse..." Guo Jia raised his head and smiled, suddenly it was as bright as the sun sees through the clouds.

Because, at this time, he finally figured out what happened just now: that guy Xu You, who said he wasn't acting?
