"Xiao Wu is still the same Xiao Wu, haha. I thought that in the past few years, he had been drinking and eating meat, just like he said before, I didn't expect him to lie down."
Xiahou Dun laughed accordingly.
Xun Yu also echoed: "Ming Gong, what General Beifu said is absolutely true. There is no need to use troops at this time."
Cao Cao laughed and finished the meal, put the bowl on the table, and was about to speak when Xia Houmao from outside had already questioned him again.
"Then according to the general's plan, the three armies of Chen and Jingxiang cannot return without success! It will take another half a year to go to the northwest and enter Shaanxi..."
Before he could finish his words, a tall figure suddenly emerged from the curtain and slapped him on the back of the head.
"You're the only one with a lot of problems!"
Another kick came, and the eight-foot-tall man was kicked directly to the ground.
In Cao Cao's camp, Xiahou Dun was the leader of the generals. Not only was he extremely powerful, he was also frugal throughout his life and had a high reputation.
Xia Houmao was different. He relied on his clan status and read several military books. In these years, he walked sideways in Xudu and Yecheng. He never thought that he would be beaten, but he was beaten all at once. Senseless.
"The elders make decisions, do you have any say?"
When he kicked the third kick, Xia Houmao realized what he was doing, hid his head and said, "Father, why are you here?"
In front of the public, Xia Houmao, who was running around on the ground, discarded his helmet and armor, but he still had a little bit of the arrogance of the young general just now.
Sima Yi was so frightened that he touched the back of his head and took a few steps back.
Kong Rong was so frightened that he hid in the crowd regardless of his demeanor.
Xia Houmao fled to the door in a few steps and shouted: "Zihuan, save me!"
Xiahou Dun was faster than him. When he chased him to the door, a young man appeared outside the palace door.
The weather was cold, and the boy had been in the cold wind for a long time. His hair was not messy, his clothes were neat, and his every move was in order.
He stood independently in front of the palace gate, straightened his posture, bowed and said, "Zi Heng has met Uncle Yuan Rang."
For a moment, everyone looked at him.
Cao Pi.
After the death of Cao Cao's eldest son, Cao Ang, he is currently the most promising successor.
Cao Wu narrowed his eyes, and sure enough, when all the officials came here, not just Mao Jie and Cui Yan could shout at them.
Cao Wuzao was no longer the novice he was when he first traveled through time, so he naturally immediately understood the significance of Cao Pi's presence here.
Since ancient times, although there has always been a tradition of establishing elders rather than direct heirs, there are many things that happen between brothers and brothers. Let alone being far away, the example of Sun Ce passing the throne to Sun Quan is right in front of us.
Cao Pi had just turned 20 this year, and he should have naturally entered the political arena and embarked on the road to succession. However, something happened in the middle of this year, which made Cao Cao delay his time to become an official.
Cao Pi was quite wealthy and had no complaints about it at that time.
But now it seems that he must have had a lot of connections in private, so he took this opportunity to gather officials and show his strength.
In fact, the reason why Cao Pi wanted to target Cao Wu was because Cao Wu repeatedly suppressed Sima Yi, and Sima Yi was on good terms with Cao Pi, which gave Cao Pi the idea of Cao Wu targeting him.
I'm afraid no matter what he thinks, it's impossible to figure out the real reason why Cao Wu targeted Sima Yi.
Moreover, at present, Cao Wu just wants to be a dandy and get whatever he wants, and has no interest in the things Cao Pi wants.
Xiahou Dun didn't think so. The moment he saw Cao Pi, his mind was flashing with lightning and he had already figured out everything.
Xiahou Dun was only single-minded, but not independent-minded.
He blocked the door and sighed: "Pier, this is not the place you should come to. Go back."
Cao Pi smiled: "My nephew came here because he heard that hundreds of officials came to Beifu. They were worried about something happening, so they came to seek justice for Uncle Six."
He was gentle and gentle when he spoke, and could be called a humble gentleman.
Before coming, Cao Pi had already made up his mind to suppress Cao Wu, his uncle. Others didn't understand, but he understood the importance of this uncle in the heart of his father, Cao Cao.
Who would have thought that he had planned for a long time and used the anger of the officials to cause trouble. As a result, Cao Wuji fought with the officials, and even Sima Yi, whom he was most optimistic about, was defeated.
So he immediately changed his strategy and planned to make good friends with Cao Wu first.
"good."
Xiahou Dun agreed, frowning, and finally gave way to the door.
Today, the only people who can use force to make Xiahou Dun give way are the three people from the Cao family who are here today.
Cao Pi felt relieved and stepped in. Xia Houmao followed behind him furtively.
Cao Pi thought of a countermeasure, but as soon as he entered the door, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
A red-robed general with a short beard, holding a riding crop, looked at him with a cold expression.
"Father...Father..."
Cao Pi panicked and his lips were so dry that he couldn't even say a single word.
The calmness he had deliberately maintained was shattered, and the appearance of Mr. Qianqian disappeared in an instant.
The hall was very quiet, and it was completely different from the silence when Cao Wu was speaking.
All the officials now, including Xun Yu, were trembling and did not dare to express their anger.
There was a timid maid who had already held hands and hid silently.
Cao Cao was not tall, and his figure was only of average height, but he stood there without saying a word, while the ministers were crouching!
Cao Cao walked forward slowly, and Xun Yu kept up with him in small steps. Others in the palace did not look directly at him, and did not dare to move their hands. They were sweating in the winter.
"Xiao Wu, come with me."
Cao Cao waved, and Cao Wu sighed and followed.
He was not as respectful as Xun Yu, and followed Cao Cao out of the palace gate as if taking a walk.
From beginning to end, Cao Cao did not look at Cao Pi.
Cao Pi's clothes were soaked with cold sweat, and he raised his head to look for Sima Yi as if asking for help. Sima Yi's mouth twitched and he gave a sad, bitter smile.
In the end, neither of them dared to follow.
Cui Yan and others, who felt that their status and qualifications were quite good, followed Cao Cao, and a group of more than 20 people followed Cao Cao to a hillside in Beifuzhong.
Only then did everyone see that outside the Beifu wall, a group of armored infantry were rushing this way.
They marched on their own territory, but they did not take off their armor. Every soldier was strong and strong, and their steps were neat, fast and not chaotic.
"Qingzhou soldiers?"
Cao Wu pointed at those people and understood something instantly.
Cao Cao pointed to the west. When he pointed, there was nothing. But just for a moment, white light reflected from the sky, and countless armored cavalry came from a distance.
All tall horses, all long bows and spears.
A wise man among the officials murmured: "Tiger and Leopard Cavalry..."
As they got closer, everyone saw that in front of the Qingzhou soldiers, several gun-wielding generals had solemn faces, leading the troops.
Cao Hong, Le Jin, Xu Huang, Li Dian, Xia Houshang...
In front of the tiger and leopard cavalry, there were also many cavalry officers taking the lead.
Xia Houyuan, Cao Ren, Zhang Liao, Cao Chun, Cao Xiu...
Except for the generals on the southern battlefield, almost all the famous generals in Cao Cao's camp are here, and some even rushed back from the southern front.
The well-organized troops, the mighty generals, and the names destined to be engraved in the history books, seem to be invincible in the world, and can conquer everything at any time.
Cao Wu also looked at the soldiers who were killing him in front of him with admiration.
What kind of person is he who has defeated such a great army? What kind of person is Zhou Yu and Zhou Gongjin through the ages?
Cao Cao pointed his horse whip at the two armies in the distance and said with a smile: "I heard that someone behind my back said that I am a Han Prime Minister, but I am actually a Han traitor."
"But since Dong Zhuo's rebellion, this north has been like a copper furnace purgatory, and the people's lives have been reduced to ashes. They surrendered themselves to death for the country, and destroyed themselves for righteousness, which will last forever."
"If there was no one in the world, I don't know how many people would be called emperors and how many would be called kings!"
Cao Cao stood in front of thousands of people, standing tall and tall.
"Gentlemen, what does it matter if the world's surname is Liu or Cao?"
"As long as this troubled world is settled, as long as the world is unified. From Donghai in the east, to Liangzhou in the west, to Youyan in the north, to Jiaozhi in the south, there are thirteen states and one hundred and five counties. As long as everyone in the world speaks of my name. , don’t forget one sentence, Cao Mengde is the one who calms down the troubled times!”
He raised his riding crop and shouted: "Who in the world dares to compete with me?"
When Xun Yu said "What do you have to do with me?", Xun Yu lowered his head and said nothing.
When it came to "Who will fight?", the two armies came to the gate of Beifu. Xiahou Dun made a gesture from a distance. Xiahou Yuan nodded and shouted: "Kill!"
The Eight Tiger Cavalry and Five Sons of Good Generals present shouted in unison: "Kill!"
All the troops shouted: "Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The momentum was astonishing.
Mao Jie, who had already reached the gate of Beifu, was in tears. Cao Pi and Sima Yi, who remained in the hall, looked pale.
It was at this time that everyone on the mountain heard the sound of war drums.
"Boom!"
The sound shakes the world.
Everyone turned around together, and at some point, a huge creature appeared in the water in Beifu.
An indescribably large ship.
It is three stories high, more than twenty feet long, and four feet wide. The bow is in the shape of a dragon's head. Every inch of the hull, including the keel and the mast, is the ultimate in wooden craft.
"Boom!"
The drummers on the big ship waved their hammers in unison.
There are trebuchets, strong bows and crossbows on this big ship. The most obvious thing is that there is a huge racket on each side of it. The racket is one foot wide and six or seven feet long. In front of it, all the ships are fast. The boats are all sampans that break up at a stroke.
"kill!"
A man and a woman stood on the observation deck on the top of the sail, and the man was also shouting.
The last of the five good generals is Yu Jin.
"Boom!"
The girl waved her drum hammer and glanced at Cao Wu playfully, as if asking for praise.
But Cao Wu opened his mouth wide and was done.
He had seen the blueprint of the five-toothed ship in the museum. After traveling through time, he casually recalled it and threw it to his maid Ah Si. Who knew that Ah Si actually made it.
Cao Cao pointed to this giant ship that surpassed the times with satisfaction, and asked Cao Wu: "Do you think I will lose?"
…
In the thirteenth year, the Duke returned to Ye and built the Xuanwu Pool to study the boat master.
