When Cao Pi saw the two women crying, he drew his sword and tried to kill them. Suddenly he saw red light everywhere, so he pressed his sword and asked: "Who are you?"

"I am General Yuan's wife, Lady Liu," said a woman.”"Who is this woman?" asked Pi. "This time," said Lady Liu,"the boy, Yuan Xizhi,

His wife is Zhen. Because Xi went out to guard Youzhou, Zhen refused to travel far, so he stayed here.”Yuan Pi dragged the woman to the front and saw her hair disheveled and dirty. not in

He wiped his face with his sleeve and looked at it. He saw Zhen's jade skin and beautiful appearance, which could topple the country. "I am the son of Prime Minister Cao. willing to

Protect your home. Don't worry." Wang Dao sat in the hall with his sword in his hand.

If you don't get me, how can you enter this door?”Cao Cao laughed. When the generals heard this, they all felt indignant. Cao Cao went to the gate of Shao's mansion and asked,"Who is it?

Have you ever entered this door?" "The prince is inside," replied the general. Cao Cao called him out and scolded him. Lady Liu came out and bowed, saying,"No one but the prince can save me

At home, I am willing to go to Zhen's house to hold a dustpan and broom for the prince.”Cao Cao summoned Lady Zhen and asked her to bow to him. Cao Cao looked at her and said,"Are you really my daughter-in-law?”So he ordered Cao

He did not accept it.

After Cao Cao pacified Jizhou, he personally went to Yuan Shao's tomb to offer sacrifices. He bowed twice and wept bitterly. He turned to the officials and said,"In the past, I fought with Ben Chu

At that time, Benchu asked me,'If things don't go well, what can we rely on?'I asked him,'What do you want?'Ben Chu said:

'I occupy the Yellow River in the south, block the Yan Dynasty in the north, combine the people in the desert, and fight for the world in the south. Can I succeed?'I answered,'I am in charge of the world

There is nothing wrong with using Tao to control his intelligence.'These words are like yesterday, now the original has died, I can not help but cry for it!”Everyone sighed.

Rest. Cao Cao gave gold, silk, grain and rice to Yuan Shao's wife Liu. "The inhabitants of Hopei have suffered the scourge of war," he ordered,"and they will be exempted from this year's taxes.”side

Cao Cao wrote a memorial to the throne to declare himself emperor, and Cao Cao himself served as the herdsman of Jizhou.

One day, Xu Chu rode into the east gate and met Xu You. He drank and called Xu Chu,"Without me, how can you enter and exit this door?”Chu Nu

"We have thousands of lords who have died, and we have risked a bloody battle to seize the city. How dare you boast?"”"You are but common men," said You,"and why?

That's great!" Chu was furious. He drew his sword and killed Xu You. Then he brought Xu You's head to Cao Cao and said,"Xu You is so rude. I will kill him."”Cao Cao said:

Jimin replied,"Cavalry Commander Cui Suo, also known as Ji Gui, is from Wucheng, east of the Qing River. He had offered advice to Yuan Shao many times, but Yuan Shao did not listen, so he pretended to be ill and stayed in the capital.

Home." Cao Cao immediately summoned Yan to be engaged in the state's other driving, and said to him: "Yesterday, according to the household registration of the state, there were a total of 300,000 people.”

"Now the world is divided, and Kyushu is divided," said Yan."The two Yuan brothers are fighting, and the people of Jizhou are in the wilderness. Prime Minister, do not be anxious to ask about customs and save them.

Is it what the people of the state expect from you to calculate the household registration in advance?”When Cao Cao heard this, he changed his expression and thanked him, treating him as a distinguished guest.

Cao Cao had already pacified Jizhou and sent someone to find out more about Yuan Tan. At that time, Yuan Tan led his troops to plunder Ganling, Anping, Bohai, Hejian and other places. He heard that Yuan Shang had been defeated.

He fled to Zhongshan and led his army to attack. Yuan Shang was not in the mood to fight, so he went straight to Youzhou to join Yuan Xi. Yuan Tan surrendered all his troops and wanted to attack Jizhou again. Cao Cao sent for him

Yuan Tan did not come. Cao Cao flew into a rage and sent a letter to break off the marriage. He led an army to attack them and reached Pingyuan. When Yuan Tan heard that Cao Cao had come with his army, he sent for help.

To Liu Biao. The above table requests Liu Bei to discuss. Liu Bei said,"Now that Cao Cao has conquered Jizhou, the Yuan brothers will soon be captured by Cao Cao.

Besides, Cao Cao often has the intention of spying on Jingzhou and Xiangyang. We can only raise our troops and defend ourselves. We can't act rashly.”"Then how shall I thank him?" said Liu Biao. Xuan

"You can write a letter to the Yuan brothers, saying that they will be reconciled, and that you will express your thanks in a polite manner.”Liu Biao agreed with his words and sent a letter to Yuan Tan first. Book Lue

He said,"A superior man should not oppose his enemy's country when he is in trouble. A few days ago, when I heard that you had knelt down and surrendered to Cao Cao, I realized that you had forgotten the hatred of your ancestors, abandoned the friendship between brothers and sisters, and abandoned the alliance.

It's a shame. If Jizhou is not my brother, I will surrender to you. Isn't it noble to let the world judge the right and wrong after the matter is settled?”And with Yuan

"The people of Qingzhou, by nature, are impetuous and impatient, and are confused by right and wrong. You should get rid of Cao Cao first, so as to avenge your father. After the matter is settled, we will plan a plan.

Isn't it good to be upright? If you don't turn back, then Han Lu and Dong Guo will be trapped in front of you and lose the harvest of the farmer.”Yuan Tan received the memorial and knew that

Liu Biao had no intention of sending troops, but he knew that he could not defeat Cao Cao, so he abandoned Pingyuan and fled to Nanpi.

Cao Cao pursued Nanpi. At that time, the weather was cold and the river was frozen. The grain ships could not move. Cao Cao ordered the local people to knock on the ice and pull the boat.

He fled after hearing the order. Cao Cao was furious and wanted to kill him. When the people heard this, they went to the camp in person to throw their heads. Cao Cao said,"If I don't kill you, then I'll call you

If the order is not carried out, I can't bear to kill you. Go hide in the mountains and don't be captured by our soldiers.”The people left in tears.

Yuan Tan led his troops out of the city and fought against Cao Cao's army. The two armies faced each other in a circle. Cao Cao rode out and pointed his whip at Yuan Tan."I've treated you well, how can you live

Disloyal?" "You have invaded my territory, taken my city, and relied on my wife and children," said Yuan Tan."But you say I have a different heart?”Cao Cao flew into a rage and sent Xu Huang away.

Go out. Yuan Tan sent Peng An to fight. The two horses crossed each other, and before long, Huang killed Peng An under his horse. Yuan Tan's army was defeated and retreated into Nanpi. Cao Cao sends troops

Surrounded from all sides. Yuan Tan panicked and sent Xin Ping to meet Cao Cao and ask him to surrender. Cao Cao said,"Yuan Tan is a capricious boy. I cannot trust him. Your brother Xin

I've put you in an important position. You can stay here.”"The Prime Minister has made a mistake. I have heard that the monarch values the honor of his subjects, and the monarch worries about the shame of his subjects. I've been serving Yuan for a long time

How can I betray you?" Cao Cao knew that he could not stay, so he sent him back. Liu Ping returned to Yuan Tan and said that Cao Cao was not allowed to surrender. "Your brother is here," rebuked Tan.

Cao Cao, are you having second thoughts?" When Liu Ping heard this, he was so angry that his chest was full and he fainted on the ground. Yuan Tan let people help him out, and soon died. Yuan Tan also regretted it. Guo

"In the future," said Tu to Tan,"we will drive the people to the front, followed by the army, and fight to the death with Cao Cao.”Yuan Tan listened to his advice.

That night, all the people of Nanpi were driven away, and they all held swords and spears to obey orders. At daybreak the next day, the four gates were wide open, with the army behind and the people in front shouting,

They marched together and reached Cao Cao's camp. The two armies fought from dawn to noon, killing people everywhere. Cao Cao saw that he had not won a complete victory,

He abandoned his horse and went up the mountain to beat the drum himself. When the soldiers saw this, they tried their best to move forward, and Yuan Tan's army was defeated. Countless civilians were killed. Cao Hong's might rose as he charged into battle,

Guo Tu was about to meet Yuan Tan and cut him with his sword. Yuan Tan was killed by Cao Hong in the middle of the battle. Guo Tu saw that the battle was in chaos and rushed into the city. Yue Jin saw it and took out his bow.

He shot down the moat with an arrow, and the men and horses were trapped. Cao Cao led his troops into Nanpi to appease the people. Suddenly, an army arrived. It was Yuan Xi's general Jiao.

It is the south of the city. Cao Cao personally led his army to meet him. The two generals took off their weapons and armor and came to surrender. Cao Cao made him a marquis. Zhang Yan, a bandit, led his army.

100,000 people came to surrender, and Cao Cao granted him the title of General of North. He ordered Yuan Tan's head to be cut off, and anyone who dared to cry would be beheaded. His head hung outside the north gate. A man wearing a hat

He put on his clothes and wept under his head. The attendants brought it to Cao Cao. When Cao Cao asked him, he found that it was Wang Xiu, the governor of Qingzhou. He had been expelled because he had advised Yuan Tan. Now he knew that Yuan Tan was dead.

He came to cry. "Do you know my orders?" said Cao Cao. "I know," said Xiu. "Aren't you afraid of death?" asked Cao Cao. Xiu said,"I am born

It is unjust not to cry when you are ordered to escape. Fear of death, forget righteousness, how to establish the world! If you can bury Yuan Tan's body, you will be killed without regret.”fuck

"Why are there so many righteous men in Hopei? Unfortunately, the Yuan family could not be used! If you can appoint him, how dare I look at this place?”

So he ordered Yuan Tan's body to be collected and buried, and Li Xiu was appointed as a guest of honor and appointed as a general of the Department of Gold. So he asked,"Now that Yuan Shang has defected to Yuan Xi, what should we do to capture him?"

Ce?" Liu Xiu did not answer. "He is a loyal minister," said Cao Cao. When he asked Guo Jia, he said,"You can send Yuan's generals, Jiao Chu and Zhang Nan, to attack us.

Yes." Cao Cao took his advice and sent Jiao Chu, Zhang Nan, Lu Kuang, Lu Xiang, Ma Yan and Zhang Wei to attack Youzhou in three ways.

On the other hand, he sent Li Dian and Yue Jin to join Zhang Yan, attack Bingzhou and attack Gao Gan. Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi knew that Cao Cao's army was coming and expected that it would be difficult to meet them.

The enemy then abandoned the city and led his troops to flee to the west of Liaodong to join the Wuhuan. The governor of Youzhou, Wuhuan, gathered all the officials of Youzhou and made a blood oath to discuss it together.

He betrayed Yuan and went to Cao. "I know that Prime Minister Cao is a hero of the age. If you surrender now, anyone who disobeys will be beheaded.”sequentially

After the blood sacrifice, Lu Xun arrived at Han Heng. Then Heng threw his sword on the ground and cried out,"I have received great kindness from Yuan and his son. Now my lord has been defeated and is dead. I am not wise enough."

If you can't die bravely, you'll be short of righteousness! If you surrender to Cao Cao facing North, I won't do it!”Everyone was shocked. The Wuhuan said,"The rise is great

Things should be done in a righteous manner. It doesn't take one person to succeed. Since Han Heng has such ambition, let him do as he pleases.”He pushed Heng out. Wuhuan Chunai

He went out of the city to meet the three armies and came straight to surrender to Cao Cao. Cao Cao was very happy and appointed him General of the North Town.

Suddenly he rode out to report,"Yue Jin, Li Dian, and Zhang Yan are attacking Bingzhou. Gao Gan is holding Huguan Pass and can't take it.”Cao Cao led his troops

Go. The three generals followed suit and said that it was difficult to attack the pass. Cao Cao summoned his generals to discuss the plan to defeat Cao Gan. Xun You said,"If we defeat Gan, we must use a plan to feign surrender.

But…" Cao Cao agreed. He summoned the surrendered generals Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang and whispered to them. Lu Kuang and others led dozens of troops to the pass and shouted,

"We were once generals of the Yuan family, and had no choice but to surrender to Cao Cao. Cao Cao is treacherous and treats us badly. I'm going back to help my old master. Keji

The switch accepts each other." Gao Gan did not believe it and only told the two generals to speak from Shangguan. The two generals took off their armor, abandoned their horses, and entered. They said to Li Gan: "Cao Cao's army has just arrived.

We can take advantage of the fact that the morale of the army is not stable and rob the camp tonight. We're willing to go first." Yu Xi listened to his advice and ordered the two Lü to lead more than 10,000 troops that night.

Go. When they arrived at Cao Cao's camp, there was a loud shout behind them and an ambush. Gao Gan knew that he had fallen into a trap and rushed back to Huguan City. Yue Jin and Li Dian had already taken it.

Guan Yu and Gao Yu seized the road and fled to Chanyu. Cao Cao led his troops to defend the pass and sent people to pursue Gao Gan. Gan arrived at Chanyu's territory and was facing the North.

King Xian. Cao Gan dismounted and knelt on the ground, saying that Cao Cao had annexed the territory and now wanted to invade the land of the prince. He begged for help and joined forces to recover the land and protect the north.

Fang. "I have no enmity with Cao Cao," said King Xian of the Left."How can he invade my land? Do you want me to make enemies with the Cao family?" He ordered Gao Gan to retreat. dry

He had no choice but to go to Liu Biao. When he reached Shangluo, he was killed by Wang Yan, the commander, and sent his head to Cao Cao. Cao Cao made Yan a marquis.

After Bingzhou was pacified, Cao Cao discussed attacking Wuhuan westward. Cao Hong and the others said,"Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang are on the verge of death. They are at the end of their rope and have gone far into the desert.

If Liu Bei and Liu Biao take advantage of the weakness to attack Xudu, our rescue will not be able to respond in time, and the disaster will not be shallow. Please turn back and don't advance

Go." "You are wrong," said Guo Jia. Although your majesty is awe-inspiring, the people of the desert, relying on their remoteness, will certainly not be on guard. take advantage of the situation

Be prepared. If we attack them suddenly, we will surely defeat them. Moreover, Yuan Shao and Wuhuan have kindness, and Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi brothers still exist, must be eliminated. Liu Biao sat down and talked about it

I am just a guest, I know that talent is not enough to resist Liu Bei, if you appoint him heavily, I am afraid he will not be able to control, if you appoint him lightly, Liu Bei will not be appointed. Even if the country is empty, you have no worries

Yes." Cao Cao said,"What you say is very true." So he led his army, large and small, with thousands of chariots, and marched forward. I only see the yellow sand, wild

The wind blew, and the road was rugged, making it difficult for men and horses to move. Cao Cao had the intention of returning to the army and asked Guo Jia. Wang Jia was ill and ill at this time. fuck

"Because I wanted to pacify the desert, I made you travel far and hard, and you fell ill. How can I be at ease?"”"I am grateful to you, Prime Minister," said Jia.

Even if I die, I can't repay you." Cao Cao said,"I see that the north is very rugged, and I want to go back. What do you think?”"Speed is the most important thing in war. Jinqian

There are too many baggage and it is difficult to advance quickly. It is better to send light troops along the road to catch them unprepared. You just need someone who knows the way to guide you.”

So he left Guo Jia in Yizhou to recuperate and asked for a guide officer to lead the way. It was recommended that Tian Chou, an old general of Yuan Shao, knew this place very well. Cao Cao summoned him and asked him. domain

"There is water in autumn and summer on this road. It is shallow and difficult to drive horses and carts, and deep and difficult to carry boats. It's better to return to the army and cross the white sandalwood from Lulong's mouth.

From the empty land, forward near Liucheng, surprise the enemy: Tadun can be captured in one battle." Cao Cao listened to his advice and granted Tian Chou the title of Jingbei.

General, as a guide officer, as the vanguard; Zhang Liao was in second place, and Cao Cao himself led the army from behind. He rode forward with light cavalry.

Tian Chou led Zhang Liao forward to White Wolf Mountain, just met Yuan Xi, Yuan Shang and Tadun and other tens of thousands of cavalry came forward. Zhang Liao flew to report to Cao Cao. Cao personally led

He reined in his horse and climbed high to look at the enemy. He saw that the Tadun army had no ranks and was scattered and disorderly. Cao Cao said to Zhang Liao,"If the enemy is not in order, we can attack them.”is calculated on the

The command was given to Liao. Zhang Liao led Xu Chu, Yu Jin and Xu Huang down the mountain in four directions and fought hard to attack. Tadun was in chaos. Zhang Liao rode on his horse and beheaded Tadun.

The rest surrendered. Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang led thousands of cavalry to Liaodong. Cao Cao withdrew his troops and entered Liucheng. He granted Tian Chou the title of Marquis of Liuting and let him guard Liucheng.

Tian Chou wept and said,"I am but a man who has betrayed my duty and fled. I am fortunate to have been saved by your kindness. How can you sell Lulong's stronghold to get a reward? dead

I dare not accept the marquis." Cao Cao thought he was right and appointed Tian Chou as a counselor. Cao Cao comforted Shan Yu's people and collected 10,000 horses. On the same day, he returned to the army. shitian

The weather was cold and dry. There was no water for two hundred miles. The army was short of food. They killed horses for food and dug thirty or forty feet into the ground to get water. When Cao Cao returned to Yizhou, he rewarded him handsomely.

One of the generals who had advised him said to his generals,"I took advantage of the danger to go on an expedition and succeeded by luck. Even if you win, you are blessed by heaven and cannot be used as a model.

Your remonstrance is a long-term plan, so I reward you. Don't say it in the future."

When Cao Cao arrived in Yizhou, Guo Jia had been dead for several days and his coffin was placed in the government office. Cao Cao went to offer sacrifices to him, and wept bitterly, saying,"It is Heaven who has lost me when I have died for my filial piety.

My heart is broken!" Wang Jia's attendants took out the letter sealed by Wang Jia before his death and presented it to the emperor."Before Guo Gong died, he personally wrote this and instructed:

If the Prime Minister listens to what the letter says, Liaodong will be settled.”Cao Cao opened the letter and read it. He nodded and sighed. No one knew what he meant. The next day, Xia Hou

"Gongsun Kang, the prefect of Liaodong, has not submitted to you for a long time. Now Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang have gone to join them again, which will certainly become future trouble. Might as well ride

If they don't move, go to attack them quickly, and Liaodong can be captured.”Cao Cao smiled and said,"I don't need to bother you. A few days later, Gongsun Kang personally sent the two Yuan brothers off.

The first is here." The generals refused to believe it. Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang led thousands of cavalry to Liaodong. Gongsun Kang, the prefect of Liaodong, was originally from Xiangping.

He is the son of Gongsun Du, the general of Wuwei. On that day, when he learned that Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang had come to surrender, he gathered his subordinates to discuss the matter. Gongsun Gong said:

"When Yuan Shao was alive, he always had the intention of swallowing Liaodong. Now Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang have been defeated and are on the verge of death. They have nowhere to rely on. They have come here to congenial relations. They are like hatoos snatching away magpies 'nests.

That's what I meant. If you accept him, he will certainly be the prime minister in the future. It is better to earn money into the city to kill him, and then offer his head to Cao Cao, Cao Cao will treat us very well.”Kang said,

"I'm afraid that Cao Cao will lead his troops to Liaodong. It's better to accept the two Yuan envoys to help me.”"You can send someone to find out," said Wang Gong. If Cao Cao's army comes to attack,

If the two Yuan generals did not move, they would kill the two Yuan generals and send them to Cao Cao.”Li Kang listened to his advice and sent someone to find out the news. Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang came to Liao

The two of them secretly discussed, saying,"Liaodong has tens of thousands of soldiers, enough to fight Cao Cao. Now I surrender to him temporarily, and I will kill Gongsun Kang and seize his land later.

Cultivate strength and resist the Central Plains, so that Hebei can be recovered.”After the discussion, he went to see Gongsun Kang. Kang stayed in the post station, only to say that he was ill, not to say that he was ill.

I'll see you soon. In less than a day, the spy reported,"Cao Cao's army is stationed in Yizhou and has no intention of taking Liaodong.”Gongsun Kang was very happy, so he took the initiative to attack.

The axe was hidden in the clothes on the wall, and the two Yuan brothers were sent in. After the greeting ceremony, the prime minister was ordered to sit down. At that time, the weather was very cold, Wang Shang saw that there was no mattress on the bed, he said to Wang Kang:

"I'm willing to spread the seats." "Your heads will travel ten thousand miles," said Kang, staring at them. Where is the mat? Yuan Shang was shocked. "Left!" Kang chided.

Why don't you attack?" The machetemen rushed out and cut off the heads of the two men on the seats. They put them in wooden boxes and sent them to Yizhou to see Cao Cao.

Fuck. At that time, Cao Cao was in Yizhou and did not move. Xiahou Dun and Zhang Liao reported,"If we do not conquer Liaodong, we can return to the capital. Afraid of Liu Biaosheng

Heart." Cao Cao said,"When the heads of the two Yuan brothers arrive, we will immediately withdraw our troops.”Everyone laughed secretly. He suddenly reported that Gongsun Kang of Liaodong had sent Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang away.

When the head arrived, everyone was shocked. The messenger presented the letter. Cao Cao laughed and said,"This is what filial piety should be like.”He rewarded the messenger and granted Gongsun Kang the title of

"I heard that Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang have defected to Liaodong. Gongsun Kang had been afraid of Yuan's annexation for a long time, and the two Yuan's defection would certainly be suspicious. if the

He said it was good. Cao Cao led the officials to set up a sacrifice in front of Guo Jialing. He died at the age of thirty-eight and followed the army for eleven years, making many outstanding achievements. Poem of praise from posterity

He said,"Born to be Guo Fengxiao, a hero among the heroes. In the belly is the sutra history, in the chest conceals the armor weapon; His strategy is like Fan Li's, and his decision-making is like Chen Ping's. may

It's a pity that I lost my life first, and the Central Plains collapsed." Cao Cao led his troops back to Jizhou and sent people to help Guo Jia's coffin to be buried in Xudu.

"Now that the north has been settled," said Cheng Yu and the others,"we can return to the capital and make plans for the south as soon as possible.”Cao Cao smiled and said,"I have had this ambition for a long time.

"The south is full of vigor, and I fear it will be impossible to conquer it.”"With the Prime Minister's authority," said Shen You,"what is there to be disobedient about? Just as he was looking, he suddenly saw

Golden light rose from the ground. You said,"There must be a treasure hidden underground." Cao Cao went downstairs and ordered people to dig with Sima Guang. It was: Star Wen Xiang Nan Zhong

Soon, Jinbao was born in the north. I don't know what I got, but I'll explain it later.
