Three Kingdoms: on the Eve of the Expedition, I Was Drunk by Diaochan

"Cai Aiqing doesn't need to say more, I know it in my heart."

Liu Xie said with a smile, then looked at Yuan Shao.

"General Yuan, there are some things that you must be responsible for when you say them, and you can't say anything nonsense."

After Yuan Shao heard this, he felt a tinge of fear for the first time in the world. At that moment, he really regarded Liu Xie as the emperor. Before that, he had always regarded Liu Xie as a child.

"I know, I will talk about it after the investigation is clear."

"Well, so good."

Liu Xie nodded with a smile, and then Cai Yong stood up again.

"Your Majesty, Tao Qian was killed, Xuzhou cannot be headless for a day. Now Cao Zhoumu is in control of Xuzhou, but he will eventually return to Sizhou. Therefore, it is better for Your Majesty to appoint someone to take over Xuzhou as soon as possible."

"Well, what Cai Aiqing said makes sense, so I wonder if Cai Aiqing has a choice?"

"I'm not talented, but someone recommended that Qin Yi, the prefect of Sizhou, can take on this important task."

"Qin Aiqing? But he is already the prefect of Sizhou."

"Your Majesty, this is the reason why the minister recommended him. Since the Han Dynasty, it is the rule that the state shepherds have not separated their families."

"Oh? That said, I'm not being strict. Qin Aiqing also understands something. He is a talented person and should be able to take the position of Xuzhou Shepherd. That's it, let Qin Yi be Xuzhou Shepherd."

"My minister, wait for the younger son-in-law to thank His Majesty Long En."

After hearing Cai Yong's words, Liu Xie looked at Cai Yong curiously.

"The minister recommended Qin Yi to be selfish. He is the son-in-law of the old minister. I beg your majesty to forgive the selfishness of the old minister."

"Hahaha, you ah you, the older you get, the more skin you get.".

Chapter 144

The news that Qin Yi was awarded the title of Xuzhou Mu was quickly spread all over the world. After hearing the news, let alone others, even Qin Yi felt a little surprised. What is the situation? Why did he become Xuzhou Mu.

But this is not a bad thing. The next day, Cao Cao rushed back to Sizhou, Qin Yi led Xu Shu, Cao Ren and several other generals to Xuzhou to hand over to Cao Cao.

After being so busy for more than half a month, Qin Yi finally got a firm foothold in Xuzhou, and then Qin Yi returned to Sizhou without stopping. Xu Shu stayed in Xuzhou to control the overall situation, and several other generals were responsible for Xuzhou's security. So far, The overall situation of Xuzhou is determined.

As a result, Cao Cao has become the most powerful feudal lord. The control division and Xu Erzhou, his troops are not to be underestimated. It can be said that the current Cao Cao has undoubtedly become the most powerful among the feudal lords.

Even if the two Yuan brothers were united, they would barely be on par with Cao Cao. In addition, Cao Cao now has a lot of strong men under his command, and Qin Yi is also in charge of his advisors. It is really impeccable.

The fertile land in Xuzhou is a natural food planting base. This gives Qin Yi room to play. Qin Yi will not think about Bai Qi's inheritance for the time being. He has exchanged a large number of potatoes and sweet potatoes for sowing. Improve wheat cultivation according to your own modern knowledge.

A series of operations have greatly increased the output of wheat. In this way, the entire Sizhou and Xuzhou have shown a state of prosperity.

Not only that, fine salt has also begun to spread in Sizhou and Xuzhou, and the sales road has become unimpeded. Every day, countless real money and silver enter the pocket. This scene shows Cao Cao's smile. Can't close.

During the rapid development of Sizhou and Xuzhou, other princes were still fighting for the front.

Time passed quickly, and a year passed in the blink of an eye. Since this year, the disputes between the princes have not only not ended, but have intensified with the inaction of the royal family. Liu Dai killed Qiao Mao. , Yuan Shao expanded his power to the north, and Yuan Shu expanded his power to the south.

Cao Cao, on the other hand, adhered to the principle that no one did not move me and I did not move him, and held the Secretary and Xu Erzhou tightly in his hands.

And it is precisely because of the inaction of the royal family that the remnants of the Yellow Turbans have caused troubles in Qingzhou. Not only did they develop rapidly in Qingzhou, but they even started to attack the adjacent Yanzhou, which is in the middle of Xuzhou and Sizhou. Cao Cao and Qin Yi had long wanted to put the When Yanzhou got it, the Yellow Turbans' disturbance just gave them a chance.

By July, Yanzhou had already been captured by the Yellow Turbans in several counties. Qin Yi knew in his heart that it was time to send troops.

Liu Dai, the prefect of Yanzhou, suffered heavy losses in the confrontation with Qiao Mao, and could not resist the attack from the remnants of the Yellow Turbans, while the remnants of the Yellow Turbans relied on Qing, and the number of Yanzhou and two states had grown to more than [-] people, and this number is still growing.

Qingzhou and Yanzhou were already poor. In addition to the war and the Yellow Turban rebellion, there was already a lot of complaints, and the people were struggling. Cao Cao went to the imperial court, jointly named Qin Yi, and made a concert together, requesting to send troops to pacify the chaos in Yanzhou.

And Liu Dai, the prefect of Yanzhou, is helpless, because with his current strength, he can't resist the attack of the Yellow Turban remnants. , the military heart is also scattered.

At this moment, this request made by Cao Cao, no matter who it is or from which aspect, is irresistible. In this way, Cao Cao and Qin Yi set out from Sizhou, Xuzhou Cao Ren led the team, and set off for Yanzhou at the same time, and Jinbei minister Bao Xin got it. After knowing this, he also led troops from Jibei.

Three sent troops, the target was directly at the Yellow Turbans in the northern part of Yanzhou. The current Yellow Turbans had become a climate, and they were no worse than Zhang Jiao and a few people before.

But under Qin Yi's suggestion, the departure time of their three armies was delayed for two or three days. Although they didn't know why, Qin Yi said that they had become accustomed to doing it, and they would not ask why.

However, within the few days that were postponed under Qin Yi's order, Xu He, the Yellow Turban general of Qingzhou, and Sima Ju, the general of Yanzhou, jointly launched an attack on the main force of Liu Dai, the prefect of Yanzhou.

Yanzhou prefect Liu Dai originally had more than [-] troops, but due to heavy losses in the development of Heqiaomao, he now has only [-] troops. Facing the joint attack of Yanzhou and Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, his troops are like a drop in the bucket.

The ten-fold difference in strength can no longer be compensated for by combat strength. Even if the Yellow Turbans are piled up, they can kill them. After the news of the northern perimeter of Yanzhou City came out, Qin Yi ordered the three parties to send troops.

How could Cao Cao, such a smart person, not understand what Qin Yi meant. Qin Yi wanted to use a knife to kill people, and use the Yellow Turbans from Yanzhou and Qingzhou to kill Liu Dai, the prefect of Yanzhou.

Because Yanzhou is sandwiched between Sizhou and Xuzhou, the geographical location is too important for Cao Cao and Qin Yi. It is not that Cao Cao and Qin Yi have not looked for Liu Dai before, but they were both rejected by Liu Dai, Liu Dai said frankly Said that he only wanted to live the life of the emperor.

Cao Cao and Qin Yi had a closed door because of this, but in such a chaotic world, no one could be detached from the outside world. In addition, Qin Yi and Qin Yi were not good people. Since there is no way to cooperate properly, Then you can only think of some other way.

Liu Dai, who was besieged by the city, was completely panicked, and sent two hundred elites to break through the encirclement, wanting to ask for aid to Cao Cao and Qin Yi, but the two hundred elites had no way to break through. Up, a total of hundreds of thousands of people besieged the city.

The other Yellow Turbans also occupied the nearby (very good) county towns. The entire Yanzhou was like a purgatory on earth, and there was war everywhere. However, this time the Yellow Turbans did not burn, kill and loot, but killed the tyrants and punished the land and the land.

Although Qingzhou was the birthplace of these Yellow Turbans, because the Qingzhou Prefect Gong Jing and Qingzhou Prefect Tian Kai had relatively strong troops, they did not become the target of the Yellow Turbans' attack.

However, Yanzhou, which had just experienced the war, was not so lucky. Not only was Yanzhou city besieged, but other counties were also attacked by the Yellow Turbans.

On the evening of the second day of the siege, that is, the day Qin Yi and the others launched their troops, the Yellow Turbans, under the command of Sima Ju and Xu He, launched their final attack on Yanzhou City.

More than [-] people fought against [-] people, a war with no suspense at all. From the beginning to the end, the Yellow Turbans only had one tactic, that is, the tactic of the sea of ​​​​people. . .

Chapter 145

The Yellow Turbans invaded the city of Yanzhou in this way. The Yellow Turbans did not burn, kill, and loot. Not only that, they also beheaded the wealthy and tyrannical people in Yanzhou city who were usually ruthless, and opened new warehouses to distribute money to the people.

In this way, the Yellow Turbans were not only not excluded from the city of Yanzhou, but also loved by the people.

After Sima Ju, Xu He and the two tasted the sweetness, they immediately asked their Yellow Turbans to prohibit any burning, killing and looting.

It's just because of the chaos that has occurred in this period of time, the reputation of the Yellow Turbans is still extremely poor, but it has also improved. Under such circumstances, Qin Yi and his three forces came to the outside of Yanzhou City together.

When he saw the Yanzhou city gate wide open, the people were farming, and the Yellow Turbans were patrolling, Cao Cao almost thought he was wrong, but Qin Yi was not surprised, because in history, the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans were the real ones. The uprising army has truly achieved the welfare of the people.

Seeing this situation, Qin Yi smiled slightly. He knew clearly in his heart that these Yellow Turbans were one of the important reasons for Cao Cao's fortune in the previous life. Although Cao Cao has made a fortune in this life, Qin Yi does not intend to let go of this fat, after all. More than [-] people, as long as they are trained, they are a qualified army.

"I didn't expect that this Yellow Turban Army would actually benefit the common people."

Cao Cao, who learned about the military traces of the Yellow Turbans in Yanzhou, also exclaimed.

"Haha, Brother Meng De, since they didn't do evil, and they also benefited the people, why don't we just include them?"

Qin Yi said casually beside Cao Cao, but Cao Cao was shocked when he heard Qin Yi's words.

"Brother Ziyang, you are so amazing that you can't stop talking!"

Cao Cao laughed after realizing what Qin Yi meant.

"Then, Brother Ziyang thinks, who is the right person to lobby?"

"Brother Meng De, people say that there are more than [-] people, and they are almost on the same level as ours. Since this is the case, it is better for you and me to go together. It is natural to take care of yourself."

There are no outsiders here, so Qin Yi didn't give up. After Cao Cao heard this, he couldn't help but nod his head.

"Okay, then according to what Brother Mengde said, how about you and I go with only a few guards?"

"good!"

In the early morning of the second day, a group of four appeared outside Yanzhou City. At this moment, the gate of Yanzhou City had just opened. Which well-governed great city is it?

Cao Cao and the others did not receive any obstacles when they entered the city. The group of four walked all the way to the door of the mansion. At this moment, the gate of the prefect's mansion was wide open, and there were still people coming in and out.

Qin Yi stopped one of them and asked with a smile.

"Old man, what are you doing here?"

"The newly-arrived chief inspector is giving relief. As long as the family is poor, he can receive a tael of silver. You are also here to receive relief?"

The man's smiling mouth almost opened, looking at Qin Yi and said.

"Yeah, we're here to get this too."

"Haha, I can see that the clothes you are wearing are too plain, so hurry up and go."

After hearing the old man's words, Qin Yi and the others were all stunned. Qin Yi was wearing a white robe without any other decorations. Cao Cao was also wearing a white robe, just like Qin Yi, while Zhao Yun and Ma Chao both wore a white robe. Humans, on the other hand, wear robes in armor that look ordinary enough.

The four looked at each other and smiled, and walked into the governor's mansion. Zhao Yun found a soldier and told the soldier, who then brought the four into the hall.

When Sima Ju heard about the arrival of Sizhou Mu Cao Cao and Xuzhou Mu Qin Yi, he immediately went to the hall to meet a few people. After seeing Cao Cao and Qin Yi, Sima Ju was even more excited.

"I've heard the names of the two of you for a long time, but I didn't expect the two of you to come here in person. Please forgive me."

"Hahaha, Brother Sima is polite."

"Hurry up, please take a seat."

Several people were seated, and then a young man came. Seeing that Cao Cao and the others were smiling, he was Xu He.

After a few chats, Cao Cao also brought up the topic.

"Everyone is a smart person, so I won't go around too much. This time, I want to discuss with the two of you about recruiting security."

Cao Cao got straight to the point and said his thoughts directly, while Sima Ju said with a smile.

"Since Cao Zhoumu has spoken, then we will have something to say. Our uprising is not for power or profit. Therefore, we do not want to be an official in the dynasty. If we can, let the people live a good life, that's enough."

Although Sima Ju had a smile on his face, his voice was heavy, and Xu He, who was beside him, also spoke in time.

"Several, we didn't do these things for our own selfish interests, and the reason why we let Cao Zhoumu and Qin Zhoumu come in is because we worship them, so I want to talk to them, come and come, don't say these things. Let’s talk about something fun.”

"Confused, the two of you think that if you don't become an official in the court, how long can you stay here? It won't be long before the court will assign a new Yanzhou Mu to take office, and then you will still be able to play tyrants here and divide it up. Fields? Dreaming!"

Qin Yi angrily rebuked, he also saw the thoughts of the two.

"Do you think being an official in the dynasty is a constraint? It's ridiculous! If entering the dynasty is really a constraint, how could Brother Meng De and I continue to be officials? You only see the land of one state, and what we see is It is a land of a country, and only standing at a certain height can you be qualified to intervene in some things.”

Having said that, Qin Yi has already stood up and faced the two of them, like a teacher who is scolding a student who has gone the wrong way.

"Also, we never thought of letting you enter the court as officials, we want to incorporate your troops!"

And Qin Yi's next sentence was simply unstoppable, and Cao Cao, who was beside him, was stunned for a moment, which exposed his purpose.

"Dare to ask Qin Zhoumu, why do you two think we will agree to you?"

"Because I think you two really want to change this country! If not, the two of you will ignore what I said just now, and we will leave immediately."
