In front of the Yellow Turban camp, Cao Cao was clad in armor. He held the sword at his waist with one hand and closed his eyes.

On either side of him were Xu Chu, Zhao Yun, Cao Ren and his brothers.

Behind him, 8,000 cavalry and 12,000 infantry were ready to attack.

"My lord, Mr. Cheng has already been in there for four hours and hasn't come out yet. Is there any danger?”

Xu Chu wiped the sweat off his forehead impatiently.

Compared to a few days ago when he had to draw his sword and see blood, this kind of waiting was indeed boring.

"Be patient."

Cao Cao did not move and said softly,""If Shen Shi Zhongde still doesn't come out, we'll attack.”

Pulling all the soldiers and horses to the entrance of the Yellow Turban camp was also to help Cheng Yu.

There were nearly a million Yellow Turban bandits in front of him. Whether it was military strength or labor, it could be said to be a huge fortune for Cao Cao at this stage.

Therefore, he was naturally very patient.

Time passed by.

When the scale on the copper pot's drip jumped to the word 'Shen', Cao Cao let out a heavy breath.

His right hand pulled out the sword at his waist, making a buzzing sound.

Seeing this, the generals tightened their grip on their weapons.

It seemed that this battle was inevitable.

Cao Cao raised the sword in his hand high up in the air. This sword attracted the attention of everyone present.

Everyone knew that as long as the sword fell, this bloody battle would begin.

Creak ~

The gate of the Yellow Turban camp opened.

Cheng Yu's figure appeared in the middle.

"I didn't disappoint my lord!"

With Cheng Yu's venting declaration, everyone present cheered.

Immediately after, Cheng Yu strode out. The Yellow Turban soldiers behind him put down their weapons and surged out like a tide.

Cao Ren and the others also rushed forward to receive the captives.

Cao Cao walked towards Cheng Yu and patted him on the shoulder. He said in a deep voice,""You've worked hard, Zhongde."

They watched as the Yellow Turban soldiers, young, old, weak, children, women, and children walked out of the camp.

Cao Cao knew that from this moment on, he had truly risen to power, becoming a new force that had the right to question the Central Plains.

If it weren't for you, Xu Yunxiao, I wouldn't be where I am today.

Cao Cao sighed in his heart.

Fortunately, he had also prepared a gift to repay Xu Chuan for his many schemes.

However, this gift could only be given after he had completely taken the position of the Prefecture Overseer of Yanzhou.

They had already been here for so long. She believed that he wouldn't mind waiting a little longer.

"Zhongkang, Zilong, follow me to Ren City.”

"Zixiao, regroup your troops and enter the city in an hour.”

Since they were going to hold a celebration banquet, it had to be held in Ren City.

However, there was still a Prefecture Overseer living inside, the current master of Yanzhou.

At this juncture, Cao Cao didn't mind giving him some face. Once the old geezers from East County joined forces with him, the title would fall on him.

"My lord, there's no need."

Xun Yu walked over and said with a smile,"Good things come in pairs. Liu Dai died two days ago.”

Liu Dai was dead?

Cao Cao couldn't help but laugh. Why did all the good things come together? This way, he could save a lot of complicated steps.

"What happened?"

"This matter is laughable."

Xun Yu shook his head and said emotionally,""A few days ago, because Zhongkang and Zilong defeated the Yellow Turban bandits, Liu Dai in Ren City couldn't sit still anymore and wanted to come out and take back some face.”

"However, his subordinates were frightened by the beating. Because of this matter, there was a mutiny.”

"Thousands of people killed each other, and Liu Dai died in battle.”

Cao Cao laughed coldly. This matter was indeed absurd.

"Let's enter the city."

In this battle, they captured 150,000 strong men and 20,000 disabled men, which was 130,000.

As for their families, they had as many as 800,000 people. This was a good population supplement for Yanzhou, which had been at war for years.

It took Cao Cao two months to settle these people.

In these two months, the imperial court, under the joint recommendation of these old officials, really issued an imperial edict appointing Cao Cao as the herdsman of Yanzhou.

Cao Cao took them to Xuchang.

Xu Chuan saw that Cao Cao had finally arrived at his blessed land. Moreover, he could not help with the internal affairs during this period of time. Fortunately, he fulfilled his original agreement and went to the Cai Residence to study every few days.

In the Cai Residence, Xu Chuan would either learn Confucianism from Cai Yan or copy a few poems from the Tang and Song Dynasties to make Cai Yan exclaim in disbelief. From time to time, he would also make Cai Yan laugh.

At night, when he returned to the residence, he enjoyed Gan Mei's increasingly skilled massage technique. At the same time, he counted with his fingers and said with a wicked smile,

"Xiao Mei's mourning period will be over in two months. At that time, you'd better not help me bathe. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself.”

Every time this happened, Gan Mei would always snort coldly with a red face,""Master, don't play tricks."

These two months were the most comfortable time since he transmigrated.

The only regret was that Diao Chan was nowhere to be seen.

Xu Chuan had also asked Cai Yan indirectly. She knew Diao Chan, and she was very familiar with her.

He heard that he had been in a bad mood recently and was unwilling to go out. Xu Chuan even wanted to take the initiative to visit.

On this day, as all the civil and military officials of East County had moved to Xuchang, there was only one place left.

Le Jin's expression was unusually ugly as he held the progress chart.

"The lord ordered you to supervise the production of 50,000 sets of armor within half a year. Now that the time limit has expired, you've only produced 30,000 sets.”

"I think you guys really don't want to live anymore!”

Le Jin was appointed by Cao Cao to supervise this supervision. In the end, because he did not come for training for two months, there were so many troubles here.

At this moment, he even had the heart to kill.

"General, I'm innocent. Even if you lend me ten guts, I wouldn't dare to change the lord's arrangements.”

"These…"

The foreman trembled in fear and pointed at the finished product on the ground. He said aggrievedly,"Xu Junjun asked us to build these damn things two months ago.”

"He even said that he would take responsibility for anything.”

"It's General Xu Chu's younger brother, Xu Junjun.”

In the end, the foreman was afraid that Le Jin did not know Xu Chuan, so he added another sentence.

"So it's him…"

Le Jin's eyes darkened." Even if he's Xu Chu's younger brother and has cured his wounds, he can't change the lord's military arrangements for no reason!" he snapped.”

Now, the Qingzhou Army, which had been reorganized from hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban captives, had a shortage of military supplies and equipment. They could only rely on these tens of thousands of sets of equipment to save the day.

If there was a war, would the soldiers be like the Yellow Turban bandits back then, carrying hoes to fight?

Le Jin's eyes flashed with anger.

If it was anyone else, he might have to beat them up to vent his anger.

But his brother was Xu Chu…

Le Jin couldn't win.

"It seems that this matter can only be decided by my lord.”

Le Jin murmured and rode a fast horse towards Xuchang.
