Chapter 436 Cao Cao's Purge Campaign
For Liu He's arrival, the common people expressed their welcome from the bottom of their hearts, compared Liu He's deeds with Cao Cao's, and praised Liu He to the sky, while Cao Cao was crushed into the dust. , birth eunuch, cunning and other aspects of violent criticism.
Regarding these, Liu He just listened and didn't take it seriously. At this time, he suddenly met a woman in her 20s in the crowd, who was smiling and nodding at him.
Immediately afterwards, the woman stepped forward, bowed to Liu He and said: "My concubine, Xu Yang, has seen the general, and my son Xu Shu has been supported and taken care of under the general's account. I have nothing to repay, I can only Say thanks."
"Excuse me, ma'am, how are you doing in Yingchuan by yourself these days?" Liu He hurriedly returned the courtesy, and then asked with a smile.
"Fortunately, hehe, these years, every time during the Qingming Festival, there are always people wandering around my old house. Even though I don't say anything, I know that it must be Cao Cao's person, who is looking for me, and then uses my identity to coerce my son to defect to Cao Cao. It’s just that those people don’t know that the concubine’s body has already returned to her youthful appearance thanks to the magic technique given by the great general. Even if she walks in front of those people, they don’t know each other. Therefore, it’s nothing to be a concubine these years, it’s just suffering These children who are looking for me everywhere..."
"Haha, Madam's words are humorous." Liu He praised Xu Shu's mother, and then said seriously: "But to be honest, this is also He's fault. I didn't expect that Cao Cao was still thinking about dealing with Madam. Fortunately, Madam is fine. Otherwise, how should I explain to Yuan Zhi in the future? Now that Chang'an has regained its prosperity in the past, why don't I send someone to escort Madam to Chang'an, I believe that Madam's safety will be absolutely guaranteed there."
"That's not necessary. Yingchuan is my hometown, and I don't want to move anywhere else. What's more, I believe that after this battle, Yingchuan will be under the rule of the general again. By then , Yingchuan will be as safe as Chang'an, so it doesn't make any difference whether to go to Chang'an or not." Xu Shu's mother declined.
Liu He was full of admiration: "Madam is worthy of being able to teach such a talent as Yuan Zhi. This talent alone makes many men feel ashamed."
Later, Liu He ordered to reward Xu Shu's mother generously, but Xu Shu's mother resolutely refused. Liu He had no choice but to let this great mother who was smart and upright go away.
After regaining Yingchuan, Liu and Anmin finished, and immediately led their troops to Xudu.
At this time, the news had naturally reached Xudu, and all the officials and soldiers loyal to Cao Cao in the city were in a state of panic, while those officials, soldiers and people who were loyal to the Han Dynasty were all excited. They believed that after this battle, Cao Cao, the Han thief, could only If they are captured without a fight, the revival of the Han Dynasty is expected.
At this time, although Cao Cao didn't take it seriously on the surface, he was also worried in his heart, because the influence and shock brought by Liu He were too great. He also heard about the scene where Liu He was welcomed by the crowd in Yingchuan. He really didn't expect that he worked hard to govern Yingchuan, and he tried his best to win over the big clan in Yingchuan, but in the end he was still no match for Liu He who had been stationed there for a few months.
At this time, someone suggested to Cao Cao that Liu He should launch a surprise attack while Liu He's foothold was not stable, but Cao Cao vetoed it. Cao Cao said: "Liu and Xiao'er have always been scheming and extremely cautious, and they will definitely treat us. The attack has been prepared, so instead of losing troops in vain, we should stick to the city and wait for the changes. When the opponent's division is exhausted and retreats, it will be our victory."
Cao Cao's opinion was unanimously approved by all the counselors, except Xun Yu who did not say a word.
Cao Cao was very surprised by this, and even asked Xun Yu what he thought.
I saw Xun Yu sighed: "I was just thinking, if the lord was not so impulsive and killed Concubine Dong Gui and Liu Taiwei, Liu He would not be allowed to find an excuse. At this time, we may have the opportunity to take advantage of Sun Quan to fight Liu Bei." The opportunity to seize Jiangdong, but it is too late to say anything now, we can only find a way to solve the current crisis. In fact, in my opinion, the lord should write a letter to the court to plead guilty, and beg to surrender his position, and then promise to Liu He. The good thing is that this battle may be avoided, and the lord can also get a chance to recuperate."
"Hmph! What kind of person am I, Cao Cao? How can I compromise with Liu and Xiaoer?" When Cao Cao heard this, he knew that it was Xun Yu who asked him to compromise and ask Liu He for peace. Temporary peace.
But Cao Cao knows that the current situation is like the relationship between Qin and the six eastern countries in the Warring States period in history. Qin is the strongest, while the eastern six are relatively weak. As they became stronger and stronger, their power became more and more difficult to resist. As a result, they were all wiped out by Qin.
Liu He now is equivalent to the Qin State at that time. Xun Yu's promise to provide certain benefits was to cede territory and seek peace. Cao Cao did not want to follow in the footsteps of the six eastern countries, so he resolutely refused.
At the same time, Cao Cao thought to himself: "Xun Wenruo has always helped me actively advise, no matter how strong the opponent is, he has never complained, but today's performance is a bit different, it seems that he is doing it for me. Thinking about it, but actually being a little negative, trying to weaken my strength, his nephew is now in the hands of Liu He, and his hometown in Yingchuan is also under the rule of Liu He, the so-called eight dragons of the Xun family are all in Liu He's account except himself In this way, he has a second heart?"
From then on, Cao Cao became suspicious of Xun Yu, and later appointed Xi Zhicai as Shang Shuling, and made Xun Yu a captain. real power.
Not long afterward, Wang Lang, who was ordered by Cao Cao to check the correspondence, reported to him that it was Cui Yan who said in a letter to his family: "The times are changing, and there will be changes."
When Cao Cao heard this, he was furious. He thought it was Cui Yan who was saying that the situation in Xudu was about to change, and secretly satirized him to perish. So he ordered Cui Yan to be tortured and punished as a slave. After investigating Cui Yan's situation, he heard that Cui Yan's family had a lot of guests. When receiving guests, he had curly beards, stared straight at him, and had a look of displeasure on his face. Finally, he said angrily: "It seems that Cui Yan must let me Do you give up with a knife and saw?"
Then Cao Cao ordered Cui Yan to be killed.
During Cui Yan's time, Mao Jie, Cao Cao's counselor, felt dissatisfied. One day Mao Jie saw a prisoner who was punished with a tattoo on his face, and sighed, "That's why the weather is so dry that it doesn't rain."
Cao Cao was furious and ordered Mao Jie to be killed.
Kong Rong, a famous scholar, saw that Cao Cao had killed innocent people indiscriminately, so he wrote a letter to criticize him, hoping that Cao Cao could unite people with lofty ideals to fight against Liu He and fight against Liu He together, but he was also killed by Cao Cao.
Cao Cao sacrificed the brutal butcher knife, and launched another round of purges against the officials who opposed him. For a while, all the officials in Xudu City were in danger and kept silent. He ordered all the soldiers of the army to stand in battle and never give Liu He any chance.
