    In the first year of Jian'an - August in the summer, the Han Dynasty Prime Minister Cao Cao and his fourth son Cao Zhi, escorted by the "Tiger and Leopard Cavalry", patrolled the banks of the Yellow River, inspected the garrison, and boosted morale. After passing through Baima and Yanjin, they finally arrived at Guandu  !

    Baima, Yanjin, and Guandu are known as the "three important towns on the Yellow River" and are also battlegrounds for military strategists. Baima has a dangerous terrain and a convex position, like a sword. Yanjin city is solid, easy to defend and difficult to attack, more like  It's a shield. As for Guandu, it looks unremarkable on the surface and is located relatively far back, but it's a key, a key that opens the door to Xuchang!

    Two hundred miles south of Guandu is Xuchang, the temporary capital of the Han Dynasty. In other words, the two are closely interdependent and share life and death. Guarding Guandu is equivalent to guarding the gate of Xuchang. Once Guandu is lost, Xuchang will be exposed naked!

    "I've finally met the Prime Minister and the Fourth Young Master. It's been a long journey. The reception banquet has been prepared. Please come to the city to rest!"

    Knowing that the prime minister and his son were coming, Guandu garrison Cao Ren led his generals thirty miles out of the city to greet him. He also mobilized 10,000 elite armored soldiers to set up defenses along the way. One was to protect safety in case of unexpected events, and the other was to display military power and boost morale!

    Cao Ren, also known as Zixiao, was a brother of Cao Cao. He had a strict personality, good at bowing and horsemanship, brave strategy, and had the demeanor of a general. Together with Cao Hong, Xiahou Dun, and Xiahou Yuan, he was known as the "Four Generals of the Clan". He was deeply trusted by Cao Cao and was appointed governor of the Yellow River.  Troops were stationed along the coast to monitor every move of the Yuan family in Hebei!

    "Haha The military formation is as powerful as a tiger, the formation is as neat as a wild goose, the armor is excellent, and the morale is like a rainbow. Zixiao has trained an elite army!"

    The military formation was like iron, and the flags were like clouds. Cao Cao looked up to the sky and laughed. He was very satisfied with the ability of his clan brother to lead the army. He turned his eyes and looked at his son. How would he respond to the compliments of the clan generals?  ?

    "Zijian pays homage to his uncle - he is both civilized and military, and his majesty will last forever Generals - you have worked hard on your saddle and horse, and your loyalty and bravery are commendable!"

    Cao Zhi did not dare to claim that he was the prime minister's son. He immediately knelt down on the ground and saluted as a nephew. He also saluted the surrounding soldiers. His words were appropriate and the etiquette was thoughtful, making people feel like a spring breeze!

    "The general is too frightened to be so generous as the Fourth Young Master!" Cao Ren clasped his fists in return, with a very respectful expression. His affection for Cao Zhi also increased a lot, and he even wanted to make friends!

    This is not surprising. People have some selfish intentions. The relationship between Cao Ren and Cao Zhi is very delicate. They are called uncles and nephews, but in fact they are divided into monarchs and ministers. Everyone knows some things well!

    Since the death of the eldest son Cao Ang in battle, the position of heir to the Cao Ying Group has been vacant. Among the dozen or so remaining sons in the Prime Minister's Mansion, in terms of literary talent, martial arts, and character, Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, and Cao Zhi are the most outstanding, and the world has speculated.  , among the three brothers, there will definitely be a hidden dragon!

    The question is, choose one of the three, which one is it?

    Cao Cao¡¯s heir will be the future lord of Cao Ying Group, and may even become a king in the 95th year of Long Fei. If he joins the army early, it will be like buying an insurance policy, and the prosperity and wealth of future generations will be guaranteed!

    On the contrary, if you make the wrong choice and place your bet on a 'false dragon', you can imagine the consequences. Losing one's official position and dismissal is a light matter. It is not too tragic to have everyone beheaded.  Accept your fate!

    This is a huge bet that involves life and death, honor and disgrace. The most exciting thing is that if you don¡¯t bet, you won¡¯t be able to do it. Otherwise, after the crown prince comes to power, you will be on the bench for the rest of your life!

    Just when everyone was hesitant and didn't know how to place their bets, Cao Cao suddenly inspected the passes and inspected the troops. He didn't bring any of his other sons, but he took his fourth son Cao Zhi with him. The meaning contained in it will inevitably make people think deeply. Could it be that words are just words and deeds?  Professor, are you training your successor?

    As a general of the clan and with a large number of troops, Cao Ren has both the power to speak and the strength to support the selection of the group's heir. His opinions also represent the opinions of the Cao clan to a large extent, which is very important.  What an important force!

    Of course, Cao Cao is known as the "treacherous hero in troubled times", he is very scheming and the best at maneuvering. No one dares to guess his thoughts. A little carelessness could lead to death. Therefore, all the civil and military officials temporarily chose to wait and see and establish the throne.  Before the situation becomes clear, no one will take a stand easily!

    ?¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    After a conversation, Cao Cao, surrounded by generals, entered Guandu on horseback. After a simple meal, he immediately inspected the defense, fortification construction, troop deployment, grain and grass storage Everything was big or small, and he inspected everything carefully.  After knowing what he was doing, he climbed up to the high platform and observed the enemy's situation. Yuan Tan's 100,000 troops were stationed there.It's on the other side of the river!

    Among the three major crossings of the Yellow River, Cao Cao was the last to inspect Guandu. This was not because he looked down upon this place. On the contrary, in his strategic layout, a few years later, a life-and-death battle would begin near Guandu. How could he not prepare for a rainy day?  Be prepared!

    "Haha light and unprepared, large and useless, Yuan Tan's ability to organize troops is three points worse than Nai's father. The Yuan family is really worse than the last!"

    After checking for a long time, Cao Cao couldn't help but sneer. The Yuan army on the opposite side looked strong, but in fact it was just a paper tiger. With a little trick, it could be defeated in one battle!

    After laughing for a while, Cao Cao frowned again. As the saying goes, "The authorities are confused, but the onlookers know clearly." When looking at other people's sons, he sees the fire in the dark, but when looking at his own son, he sees flowers in the fog. What are the abilities of Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, and Cao Zhi? What will they know?  Will he be like Yuan Tan and lose his family fortune sooner or later?

    "Your Majesty, Prime Minister - urgent report from Xiliang!" During the inspection, a messenger quickly ran up to the high platform, knelt down on one knee to salute, and handed over a military report with both hands!

    "Haha! In the Battle of Kongshuichuan, the main force of Yuan's army was defeated, two generals Yan Liang and Wen Chou were killed, and the counselor Feng Ji was captured alive. All the twelve counties of Xiliang were in the hands Well, Xiao Lang was injured?"

    After reading the military report, Cao Cao was first happy and then surprised. His face was half cloudy and half clear, and his expression kept changing. Finally, he looked to the west and pondered for a long time!

    Fortunately, our side won a complete victory and swept away all the forces in Xiliang. Even Yuan Shao's army of 150,000 was completely defeated. Yan Liang, Wen Chou, and Feng Ji, the three great officials in Hebei, killed two and captured them, which was equivalent to beheading Yuan Shao's army.  Three fingers greatly weakened the Hebei Group's strength, which will be a great help for the decisive battle in the future!

    To his surprise, his favorite general Xiao Yi, the invincible "Ghost Face Xiao Lang", capsized in a small river ditch and was shot by an arrow from the enemy general Jiang Qi. He needs to meditate for a period of time and will not be able to return to Xuchang in the short term.  !

    A thousand armies are easy to come by, but a general is hard to find. Xiao Yi's status in Cao Cao's heart is just like that of Han Xin, the emperor of the Han Dynasty - Liu Bang. There is no one in the army who can compare with him. He would rather lose a state than lose his beloved general.  What a mistake!

    Then again, Cao Cao knew very well what Xiao Yi's skills were. He was as cunning as a fox, as ferocious as a wolf, and as brave as a tiger. He was a natural-born general. He had fought many fierce battles, dangerous battles, and deadly battles.  How could he be shot by a little-known Jiang Qi without hurting a single hair on his body? There must be something fishy in it?

    Thinking of this, Cao Cao picked up the military newspaper and read it carefully. The first time he read it was the content. The second time, he looked at the meaning behind it. As the saying goes, words come from the heart. You can know a lot of things by looking at a person's handwriting.  Well, this is also a way for traitors to move people's hearts!

    ¡°The pen moves like a dragon and a snake, penetrating through the back of the paper, and there is a murderous spirit between the lines. Only a person with full energy, energy, and spirit can write such a strong handwriting"

    After checking, Cao Cao guessed that Xiao Yi was not injured at all. As for the reason why he did not want to return to Xuchang, it was also very simple - "Smart people, you don't want to get your own hands dirty!"

    "The Governor is actually injured. This matter should not be taken lightly. The boy is not talented, but he is willing to bring medicine to Xiliang to visit his condition and express condolences for his hard work. I also ask for your permission, Father!"

    After receiving the letter, Cao Zhi's face was full of anxiety. He and Xiao Yi have had a good relationship for a long time. They regarded him as a brother, and his caring feelings were unfailing!

    "Haha, my son, please rest assured. There is no need to go to Xiliang, and there is no need to send a doctor. I only need to send two herbs. I can guarantee that the medicine will cure the disease and make you fully recovered in one day!" Cao Cao patted his son on the shoulder, but  Without clarifying the truth, there are some things that you must understand by yourself!

    "What kind of medicine is so miraculous that it can cure someone's illness in one day?"

    "Haha red flowers, angelica!"

    Medicinal materials can be divided into monarchs and ministers, masters and slaves. Each has its own place and must not be used indiscriminately. Safflower is the main medicine and is also known as the "tiger and wolf medicine". It has a yin and cold nature and kills blood. It can save people as well as kill people.  , it depends on how to use it!

    The same applies to medicine, and so does the use of people. In Cao Cao's mind, Xiao Yi is his own magic sword, used to break formations and kill enemies. The sword's edge points to it and is invincible. Such a magic weapon cannot be used lightly, let alone to do dirty work.  Live, that is a waste of natural resources!

    Cao Cao¡¯s intention of sending red flowers and angelica was to tell Xiao Yi that you are a tiger and wolf medicine and I will not use it indiscriminately. Come back with peace of mind. Someone will naturally take care of Xuchang¡¯s affairs!

    In addition, red also has an auspicious meaning. This is a hint to Xiao Yi, come back and get married to my daughter, and stop being a prostitute outside. I know everything about you playing with women and having children in Xiliang.  I haven¡¯t settled the score with you kid yet!

    After sending the envoy, Cao Cao immediately sent an order to Xu Chu: "The tiger and leopard riders never take off their armor and their horses never leave their saddles. They are always ready to set off and return to Xuchang!"

    The Divine Sword can only be used to destroy enemies. If you want to do dirty work, you need a 'dung fork'!
