Mu\Can\Wenxue: Ren Jun probably knows some of the affiliations of the Red Eagle Cavalry, and most of them joined the Cao family along with Gao Lan.
Now we are waiting for Duke Cao's arrangements for this secret force.
According to reliable sources, Duke Cao wants to integrate these elite soldiers into Jing'an Cao to form a secret force that can compete with the Ma family's shadow.
But there were still 500 dead soldiers among the two thousand Red Eagle Cavalry.
Because they were greatly favored by the Yuan family, they swore to the death not to agree to Gao Lan's rebellion.
A small number of them committed suicide to thank Yuan Shao, while the other part secretly infiltrated Yuan Tan's men in Qingzhou and continued to serve the Yuan family.
After the assassination, Yuan Shao was already in the hands of Duke Cao.
In other words, if the Yuan family wanted to assassinate Duke Cao, it would only be under the order of Yuan Tan.
In addition, Yuan Tan quickly mobilized 40,000 troops to attack Jizhou after the assassination, which raised Yuan Tan's suspicion to a very high level.
In military terms, Yuan Tan is not very outstanding except for being tough and easy to kill; in terms of intelligence, he is only a middle-aged man and relies more on the think tanks around him; however, when it comes to this assassination, Yuan Tan is extremely capable.
The operation may be completed.
After all, Wending City was once under the rule of the Yuan family, and the Red Eagle Cavalry was familiar with the terrain.
If these Red Eagle Cavalry sneaked into Cao's camp with the help of Zeng Paoze, they would be able to achieve the same effect as that day.
Thinking of this, Ren Jun couldn't help but frown deeply.
Everything seems logical and makes perfect sense in theory.
But the more this happened, the more Ren Jun felt that it was too simple.
What's more, during this period, a very subtle incident occurred: In order to repel Yuan Tan's 40,000 remnant troops, Cao Gong did not send troops to resist as usual.
Instead, the emperor gave Yuan Tan the titles of Qingzhou Mu and Zhendong General.
At the same time, in order to appease Yuan Tan's heart, Cao Gong once again made a promise to marry his daughter to Yuan Tan, and supported Yuan Tan to become the orthodoxy of the Yuan family and openly compete with the Yuan family controlled by the Ma family.
Poor Yuan Tan is such a short-sighted person.
Under the pressure of Cao Cao, who ordered Zang Hong of Xuzhou and the surrendered general Tian Kai to lead 20,000 troops to attack the rear of Qingzhou, facing the delicious bait laid out by Cao Cao in front, he easily chose to join Cao Cao.
Shi.
However, this kind of surrender is not perfect.
The paranoid Yuan Tan retains his semi-independent state at this time, only listening to the tune, not the announcement.
Instinct tells Ren Jun that he should stop after the matter is investigated here.
If he continues to investigate, it is very likely that he will uncover the scars between Cao and Yuan Tan that no one wants to disclose, and it will also drag the entire Central Plains situation into chaos.
An unknowable vortex.
"Now you understand why I said you don't know anything," Xu Chu asked Ren Jun.
Ren Jun nodded understandingly.
No wonder Xu Chu dared to reveal the information about today's emperor and wanted to hide the presence of Yuan Tan behind the scenes.
If this detail were to spread, the impact would be really bad.
Not to mention whether Yuan Tan actually participated in the assassination, the endless associations of others alone were enough to destroy Cao Cao's hard and soft approach and painstaking efforts to appease him in Qingzhou.
Xu Chu seems to be much smarter than his appearance.
It is really rare for a guard to think about problems from such a height.
"Does Duke Cao know about this?"
Xu Chu shook his head: "At that time, Duke Cao was in pain from the Ma Jiajun's successive attacks.
In order to stabilize the morale of the army, I just hoped that this assassination would be ended as an ordinary and simple case to avoid any complications."
"But now you find that this matter is not something you, a little captain, can bear.
If my guess is correct, if Duke Cao did not specifically order me to investigate this matter, you will come back after the battle in Jizhou.
Tell Duke Cao," Ren Jun said with a smile.
Xu Chu scratched his head in embarrassment: "Mr.
Ren is brilliant, I really want to plan this way."
"But Mr.
Cao's sense of smell is much sharper than ours.
Even if you didn't say anything, he would have asked me to come and investigate."

Ren Jun smiled bitterly, "You also know now that this assassination has been linked to the Ma family and the Ma family.
When it comes to Tianzi and the Yuan family, it seems that the Ma family is the least suspicious, so what happens next?
"I will secretly mobilize the tiger guards to inquire in detail about Shi'a's previous activities.
Maybe I will find something."
Xu Chu said, and then stood up.
"Well, very good.
If there are any clues that can be linked to that army, then this matter has basically exposed the most hidden disguise.
However, you have to proceed with caution, Cao Gong does not want this matter to cause trouble for everyone.
Know."
"I see."
Invisibly, the atmosphere in the tent relaxed.
The common pressure turned Ren Jun and Xu Chu from initial hostility into a subtle alliance.
The entire Suwei is managed by Xu Chu, and he can investigate more efficiently than Ren Jun.
Unfortunately, at the next moment, Ren Jun still had a hard heart and destroyed this atmosphere completely.
When Xu Chu was about to leave, he stopped him again.
"General Xu, before leaving, there is one more thing I need to confirm with you."
Ren Jun narrowed his eyes, "I think there is still a doubt in this."
Xu Chu turned around, and to his surprise, he didn't show any anger.
"General Xu, I know you have been burdened a lot after this incident.
But can you explain to me why Shi A listened to Yuan Tan's orders?
He has never been a member of the Red Eagle Cavalry.
And" Ren Jun said He took out the dagger Cao Cao gave him and threw it to Xu Chu: "It is impossible for the Red Eagle Cavalry to possess such a weapon.
Therefore, I judge that Yuan Tan cannot be the mastermind of this incident."
"Well" Xu Chu's doubts were very heavy.
He frowned his thick eyebrows.
This small movement showed that he was surprised.
"So, General Xu, as subordinates, we don't have to worry too much about the relationship between the Cao family and the Han Dynasty.
Although you deliberately led me to the Emperor, you never imagined that there really is an Emperor here.
"Shadow."
When Ren Jun said this, he deliberately paused for a moment: "I understand your expectations for Cao Gong.
In fact, many Cao generals also have such thoughts, but you can see it now.
This kind of thing is not something that we can get involved in.”
Ren Jun's words can be said to be sincere, and he said them at the absolutely appropriate time.
Xu Chu's majestic and burly body trembled slightly, and then he bowed respectfully to Ren Jun and said sincerely: "I have written down Mr.
Ren's words.
These years, I have thought about things that I shouldn't think about. " "Okay," Ren Jun didn't expect that he would come to Xu Chu to untie a knot in Xu Chu's heart.
After seeing that Xu Chu really understood the truth, he continued: "Getting back to the subject, I feel that both His Majesty and Yuan Tan It is unlikely that both of them could complete such an assassination independently.
Let’s make a bold assumption, who will be the biggest beneficiary if this assassination succeeds?”
"Ma Family" Xu Chu said this almost without thinking.
"Yes, we have always believed that the Ma family has motives and capabilities, but it is unlikely that they know the specific location of Mr.
Cao.
But now all the evidence points out that this matter does not seem to have much to do with the Ma family."
Ren Jun narrowed his eyes, he had already fallen into his own hypothesis: "Except the Ma family, Yuan Tan is the second beneficiary.
Like the Ma family, he can take advantage of the situation when the Cao family is in chaos.
Of course, the one who hides the deepest is our Majesty.

There is no doubt that he may also take advantage of this.
When the center of the Cao family was empty and the four parties could not take care of it, they suddenly announced their separation from the Cao family."
"This assassination is really confusing."
Ren Jun shook his head, seeming to have dispelled his previous assumptions, but seemed to have found a new direction: "Once Cao Gong dies, the entire East of the Central Plains will be reshuffled.
And if Cao Gong is Lucky to escape this This assassination, all the evidence points to Yuan Tan and His Majesty, who have nothing to do with the Ma family, causing the relationship between Cao Gong, Yuan Tan, and His Majesty to fall into a state of tension and suspicion.
In other words, whether the assassination succeeds or fails, the Ma family can gain huge benefits. benefit."
"That guy Yuan Tan really can't be the mastermind leading this conspiracy.
Based on this calculation, is it the Ma family's conspiracy that is too perfect, or is that person really having evil intentions when Cao Cao was in trouble at home and abroad?"
Although Ren Jun did not let Xu Chu interfere with his affairs, he was completely unaware at this time that he was already deeply involved in it.
Xu Chu seemed to have caught up with Ren Jun's thoughts.
He grasped the dagger in his hand tighter, as if he wanted to chop down the main messenger in the darkness. rd can collect this book Recommended reading:,,,,,,,, ,,,,,:
