"Wen Ruo, why do you think of gathering all these people to Puyang County?"
Cao Ang didn't know the horrifying thoughts of the people behind him, so he just asked Xun Yu what was in his mind.
And Xun Yu stayed close to Cao Ang.
After a brief handover, he explained to Cao Ang: "Under normal circumstances, when the governor takes office, he only needs to send a message to each county. With the appointment document from the court, the magistrates of each county will obey the order."
"It's just that before my subordinates left, General, you once said that to firmly hold Dongjun in your hands, you need to have absolute control."
"So my subordinates boldly came up with such a way and issued a summons to all counties in the county, asking them to rush to Puyang as quickly as possible."
"If they refuse to come with excuses, they can simply replace them afterwards. As for those who came under orders, this review is a drama prepared by my subordinates."
When Cao Ang heard this, he nodded repeatedly.
Sure enough, having such a top-level internal minister under his command really saves me a lot of trouble.
Be able to obey all your orders.
And according to the requirements of the order, use your subjective initiative to do things beautifully.
Where can I find such subordinates?
Think of this.
Cao Ang pointed at the army under the city.
A smile appeared on his face and he asked: "So before I come, how was the effect of the first half review ceremony? What was the reaction of the people behind us?"
Xun Yu couldn't help but smile when he heard this.
"There are now nearly ten thousand troops under the general's command, including thousands of elite soldiers who have experienced many battles."
"The power and power among them are absolutely comparable to those of the Yongzhuang households in Xianxiang. How can the county officials and clan members observe this situation from the top of the city tower and be disobedient?"
Xun Yu said it easily.
Cao Ang immediately responded with a chuckle.
"After the review is over, you gather these leading figures and we hold a banquet. By the way, tell them what Dongjun's surname will be in the future."
Xun Yu responded.
Then he waved to the side, and several men dressed as minor officials ran over quickly.
…………
Seeing that Xun Yu had arranged this matter.
Cao Ang was planning to tell him about Mao Jie he met on the road.
Unexpectedly, Xun Yu seemed to have remembered something and took the initiative to speak to Cao Ang.
"General, my subordinates have something to report to you. According to the information I have collected, when the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou were ravaging Yanzhou, the Prime Minister of Dong'a County pretended to be Yellow Turban bandits and caused chaos in the county."
"Not only did they occupy the county seat, but they even scared away the county magistrate. If it hadn't been for a scholar named Cheng Yu in the city who linked up with the big families and officials in the city to counterattack the county seat and found the county magistrate, I'm afraid Dong'a County would have been abandoned by now."
"So my subordinates plan to show Wang Du's head to the public, remove the original county magistrate, and appoint Cheng Yu as the magistrate of Dong'a County. I wonder what you think, general?"
Um?
Cao Ang, who was originally listening attentively.
Suddenly he was stunned.
"Cheng Yu?"
Seeing Xun Yu nodding aside.
Cao Ang immediately grabbed his chin with his right hand and began to think about it.
…
Cheng Yu and Cheng Zhongde.
This is no simple person.
It is by no means a random splash in this huge pool of heroes in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.
He is a very important member of the Cao Wei Group.
This guy's ability is absolutely incredible. He is as smart as the sea and brave as hell.
This time, without any official status, he was able to use strategies to force the big families in the city to follow him to counterattack Dong'a County.
He directly overthrew Wang Du, the county magistrate who had an absolute advantage in Dong'a County, which shows his talent.
Moreover, the bond between Cheng Yu and Dong'a County is more than just such a thing.
If there is still the Yanzhou Rebellion in this world, Cheng Yu will use his own efforts to wander between Dong'a, Juancheng and other three counties.
In the end, he defended this territory to the death, leaving a place for his father Cao Cao to live, and regaining Yanzhou for him, which added a lot of bargaining chips.
certainly.
Cao Ang's biggest impression of Cheng Yu was the word "cruel and ruthless".
He really has a lot of skills when it comes to ruthlessness.
It's just that the Cao family is not particularly short of supplies at the moment, so there is no need to worry, Cheng Yu will reproduce the same behavior as the original.
And at some point.
The trait of being cruel and ruthless can actually add a lot of convenience to himself. There are some things that Cao Ang can't do and can't be done by leaving it to Cheng Yu, which can open up the situation more quickly.
So after thinking for a moment.
Under Xun Yu's questioning eyes, Cao Ang whispered to him: "I will do the first two things as you said. It's just Cheng Yu. After the banquet is over, I will meet him first and then decide who he is." place to go.”
Xun Yu nodded to express his understanding.
No words were added to this.
…
"Woo!"
As the trumpet sounded to withdraw troops.
The officers and soldiers of Huben Camp immediately returned to the military camp in a strict manner under the leadership of their respective generals.
And the people watching the ceremony on the tower.
Under the guidance of the officials, everyone gathered to go to the prefect's mansion to participate in the banquet arranged by Cao Ang.
At the banquet.
Drinking and drinking are intertwined, and music and dancing go hand in hand.
But maybe it was because everyone was a little shaken after watching the military parade before, and they were not in the mood to enjoy the banquet at the moment.
So despite the sound of silk and bamboo orchestra.
The atmosphere is still slightly dull.
Cao Ang didn't seem to care about this.
After drinking for three rounds and quitting singing and dancing, he slowly stood up with the wine in hand.
I saw my master standing up.
Everyone sat in silence for a while.
Hold your breath and concentrate, not daring to slack off in the slightest, for fear of missing some of the spirit above.
…
Everyone was seen to be quite obedient.
Cao Ang nodded with satisfaction.
Then he raised the wine baron, beckoning everyone to join him in toasting, and spoke to everyone at the same time.
"I'm very pleased that you all took the trouble to come all the way after receiving the order from the county government."
"For those who have not yet arrived, I have ordered them to go down, remove their officials, and punish their clans. The gentlemen sitting here at this moment are all loyal people, and they will drink this cup to the full!"
As everyone listened to Cao Ang's light words, he had already decided on the punishment for those who had not received the edict, and they couldn't help but feel a little shuddering.
Many people are glad that they finally chose to come here after being wavered between left and right.
Otherwise, they will end up like those people.
Seeing the prefect raising his wine glass at this moment, no one dared not show respect to the prefect, so they all stood up and raised their glasses together.
"I would like to drink with you!"
As the drink was drained.
Cao Ang put down the wine cup in his hand, then slightly bowed his hands to everyone, with a faint smile on his face, and said in a long tone.
"After all, I'm just here for the first time. I'm unfamiliar with the people and the place. Everyone here is new to me, so I won't say anything more. I can only tell you a few words!"
…
"First, my father is now serving as the shepherd of Yanzhou. He has the orders of the imperial court and the support of the counties and counties."
My father, Cao Mengde.
It’s the God of Yanzhou, very awesome.
Cao Ang was extremely forceful and laid out his background, and his subtext was even clearer.
Although many people present knew his identity and the relationship between him and Yanzhou Mu Cao Cao, it is not a bad thing to emphasize it.
He said that since the beginning, when he first took over Huben Camp, he put himself out of favor with his father, Cao Cao, and it seems that he rarely used this brand later.
Unexpectedly, it would come in handy again now.
Sure enough, father and son share weal and woe.
After observing the changes in everyone's expressions, Cao Ang raised his second finger.
"Secondly, everyone must have seen clearly what happened during the review of the army."
"Having such a powerful army under my command can ensure that when disaster occurs anywhere in the county, the army can arrive in the shortest possible time."
"I believe everyone can believe that I have the ability to protect the country and the people, and defend the territory."
These words made everyone's expressions change slightly.
What's the point of protecting the environment and the people and guarding the territory?
There is no danger.
The slang is nothing more than telling everyone that if anyone dares to jump up and down and disobey the county government's orders, they themselves will become a disaster and be wiped out in one wave.
Cao's fierce tiger will accomplish his mission!
…
"We are willing to serve the Lord, to protect the land of Dongjun, and to ensure the stability of the area, and we will do our best!"
There is one person taking the lead.
The rest of the people followed suit.
The sounds came and went.
He has a strong sense of loyalty and is full of rage in the hall.
It was actually Cao Ang who laid out all his troops.
Everyone used to just play around.
Where have you seen such a battle?
Not to mention that as a county magistrate or a local clan in a county, you naturally have to obey the orders of the prefect.
Even if there is no such affiliation.
At this moment, no one dared to have any intention of going against Cao Ang's will.
It's just an old man hanging himself and seeking death.
Seeing that everyone was so righteous, Cao Ang naturally stopped showing off his face.
Instead, he happily ordered everyone to sit down and continue the banquet that had not ended just now.
And mixed in the crowd.
One person saw Cao Ang being so powerful.
His eyes couldn't help flashing with sparkle, excitement quietly appeared on his slightly old face, and his hands hidden under the desk couldn't help but squeeze.
…………
After the banquet.
Everyone said goodbye to Cao Ang, and he went to the side hall next door alone.
Not long after.
Then someone came with a scribe.
As the footsteps sounded in his ears, Cao Ang couldn't help but look at the man who was gradually approaching him.
Wearing a scholar's uniform, a small crown on his head, a long beard on his chin, and a rather thin figure.
His face shows an old look, with many gray spots on the temples on both sides, and there are even a few ravines on his face.
He looks like an old comrade of many years. To describe him as "middle-aged scribe", he probably belongs to the top category of this title.
It's just that it's different from the old appearance.
As this man walked forward, his steps were steady and powerful, and his eyes were piercing, like a hawk, full of sharp edges.
"Crack!"
Stopped with the sound of footsteps.
The visitor stood in front of Cao Ang, and then he bowed down.
"Dong A Cheng Yu, please see the Lord!"
That's right.
The person coming was none other than Cheng Yu.
…
"Zhongde, please get up quickly and come and sit down here!"
Cao Ang stood up and led Cheng Yu to the table.
Before Cao Ang could make any move, Cheng Yu had already taken the initiative to refill Cao Ang's tea soup.
Seeing this, Cao Ang could only shake his head and smile.
He said with a slightly casual smile: "I have already read the documents sent by Dong'e County. Zhongde's contribution to the preservation of the county is indispensable."
"Wen Ruo suggested that I appoint you as the magistrate of Dong'e County. What do you think, Zhongde?"
Cheng Yu was startled.
But he did not answer Cao Ang's question directly.
He just handed him over and replied: "Actually, I did not receive a summons from the county this time. I heard that you are the new governor, so I took the initiative to ask the county to come with you."
"oh?"
"Why?"
"I once heard that Liu Gongshan, the former governor of Yanzhou, sent someone to look for you and wanted to invite you to serve as an official in the state under him."
"I was just rejected by you, but for some reason, you are already here in person before I can send someone to invite you?"
Cao Ang was very curious.
Could it be that he and his father defeated the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army who was in rebellion in Yanzhou, and then went to Puyang County alone to serve as the prefect of Dongjun.
His charisma has soared?
Why did Mao Jie first and now Cheng Yu take the initiative to join him?
Things got really weird.
This made him unable to help but reveal what he knew, a piece of secret information.
…
After Cheng Yu heard Cao Ang's question.
There was a hint of surprise in his eyes.
But the expression on his face remains unchanged.
Still explaining very calmly: "Liu Gongshan did send someone to look for me. Unfortunately, I saw that he was not a long-term person. Although he was sincere, he was definitely not a master, so I declined politely."
"But Mr. Fu, you are different from that!"
"I have carefully collected many stories about you, and if I pick them out one by one, I can't help but marvel at them."
"And the combination of many things, all in one person like you, Fujun, is even more astonishing. I am now fifty years old, and in my half-hundred years, I have never seen anyone as outstanding as you."
Speaking of which.
Cheng Yu paused for a moment.
Then emphasize the tone.
Slowing down his speech, he said: "From what I can see, the king of the mansion is like a master. If I can join you, it would be an honor for me. How can I not come?"
These words are so resounding.
Even though Cao Ang was used to strong winds and waves, he couldn't help but admire Cheng Yu's words.
He is worthy of being one of the first civil servants and counselors in the late Han Dynasty.
This vision is extremely high.
It is actually obvious at a glance that we are a master. This vision of being able to do what others cannot is something that is difficult for many mediocre people in the world to understand.
Reuse!
Such talents must be reused!
…
"Zhongde, your... such complimentary words are really over the top and really frighten me!"
Cao Angyue said so.
The more Cheng Yu insists on his opinion.
After struggling, he prepared to stand up and bow to Cao Ang, as if he was going to give a long speech to confirm that Cao Ang was the master.
Fortunately, Cao Ang held him down.
"Zhongde is so sincere in his investment, so I won't treat you badly. Dong'a County is still a little far away from Puyang."
"How about this, you will temporarily take over the post of Puyang County Magistrate, and coordinate with the county government to take care of many large and small affairs in Puyang County."
When Cheng Yu heard this, he immediately became energetic.
Sure enough, those words before were not in vain.
Sincerity is the greatest nirvana.
Revealing exactly what is on your mind can produce extraordinary results.
Changing from Dong'e County Magistrate to Puyang County Magistrate is like changing from the top leader in the border to the top leader in the capital. How can the two be the same?
Not to mention staying in Puyang County.
It is the closest place to Cao Ang, the top leader of Dongjun, and can hang out in front of him all the time.
If there is an important task or something big or small, the chances of Cheng Yu showing up and participating are countless times greater than before.
I am already so old.
Isn't the purpose of coming here on your own initiative just to show off your talents, find a promising force, find a good leader, and express your ambitions?
…
"Wow!"
This time Cao Ang did not stop Cheng Yu.
Make him stand up.
He bowed down directly and put his hands in front of him.
But I haven't waited for him to say anything.
Suddenly there was a noise outside the side hall door, and the sound of violent running.
Then there was a person outside the door, shouting urgently: "Master Fu, there is an urgent message from Bohai County!"
