After Li Jing led his army north, Liu Wei did not enter the city, but led the remaining 15,000 men and horses to camp outside the city of Xiapi, and bluffed to "surround" Xiapi.
In the next few days, the gate of Xiapi City was closed, and no idle people were allowed to enter or leave.
The defenders at the head of the city waved their flags and shouted every day, and the city was clamoring and arraying, as if it was in a stalemate.
Cao Song has been buried for three months, but Cao Cao still thinks that his father is filial piety, and he sits in his hometown of Qian County and controls the overall situation.
Cao Cao originally planned to get involved in Xuzhou in the name of avenging his father, but Lu Bu and Huangfu Song gathered heavy troops in Xingyangtun, which was only 300 miles away from Chen Liu, and the pressure on the guards Cao Ren and Yu Ban was huge, and the 60,000 defenders could not be mobilized. had to order Xiahou Yuan and Le Jin to lead the men and horses attacking the Qingzhou Yellow Turban to bypass Shanyang and Peixian to attack Xuzhou, first try the combat effectiveness of Tao Qian's army, and then make another plan.
It's just that what Cao Cao didn't expect was that Tao Qian was assassinated, and what he didn't expect was that as soon as he got the information here, Liu Wei took Guangling with lightning speed and besieged Xiapi.
And he sent a letter of repair, saying that Xuzhou was already under the rule of the Son of Heaven, so he asked him to withdraw his people.
This made Cao Cao a little angry, and resentment suddenly appeared in his heart: "I have made a wedding dress for others, how can I come and go like a lackey."
Immediately Xiu Shu ordered Xiahou Yuan and Le Jin to continue to garrison Pengcheng to maintain pressure on Xuzhou, and then sent an envoy to Xiapi and made a request to the Son of Heaven: first, return his father's inheritance, and second, hand over Tao Qian's wives and concubines, and he wanted to kill Tao Qian's descendants to avenge his father.
After receiving Cao Cao's handwritten letter, Liu Wei paced back and forth in the big tent in contemplation.
With the growth of strength, Cao Cao's ambitions are now swelling, with an army of more than 200,000 people, and in this troubled era, Cao Cao will definitely not be willing to be a courtier, no matter sooner or later, he and Cao Cao will have a battle To put it bluntly, Tao Qian's descendants are no longer of any value to Liu Wei now, but if he accepts Cao Cao's threat and hands him over, the face of the Son of Heaven will not exist and it will inevitably make Xuzhou's civil and military staff feel cold, Liu Wei will never allow this kind of thing to happen Moreover, Liu Wei also knew that Cao Cao's request for Tao Qian's family to avenge his father was fake, and the real purpose was to take the entire Xuzhou without blood, just to get a piece of the pie.
He immediately revised a letter and sent Chen Qun as an envoy to Qian County to mediate the matter.
Liu Wei replied in the letter: Cao Song's inheritance can be returned intact, but Tao Qian's wives and concubines are innocent people, and they are also his own people.
As the emperor of the Han Dynasty, he would never allow anyone to use lynching outside the laws of the Han Dynasty.
As compensation for Cao Cao, he was willing to give up Shanyang County.
Being able to take Shanyang County is naturally 10,000 times stronger than killing Tao Qian's incompetent son and widow, but Cao Cao is still a little dissatisfied and hopes to be able to exchange for Peiguo.
"Chen Changwen, please go back and convey to Your Majesty, Cao Nai Hanchen, how dare you covet the territory, I only need Tao Qian's family to avenge my father" Cao Cao pretended to refuse.
Chen Qunwan said with a smile: "Don't say dark words in front of the Ming people, and Cao Gong will not beat around the bush with me Chen Qun was originally an official of Tao Qian, but at this moment he is an envoy on behalf of the Son of Heaven, can't Cao Gong see the strangeness here?"
"Could it be that Xiapi has now been broken by the Son of Heaven" Cao Cao suddenly had an epiphany, "The siege of the Han army is fake, and it is intended to bewitch Yuan Shao" Chen Qun nodded approvingly: "I know that Cao Gong is a smart person, and everything can't be hidden from your eyes Previously, Cao Gong was loved and summoned to repair books, but Qun failed to serve under Cao Gong, and his heart was panicked.
The purpose of Mao Sui's self-recommended mission to Qian County this time is to let Cao Gong get the most useful military information, which can be regarded as a reward for your kindness.
As for what kind of military situation, he will not confide in half a word, it is all up to Cao Gong to figure it out himself" "It seems that Yuan Benchu's catastrophe is coming" Cao Cao had a sad expression, and he had already guessed Li Jing's plan nine times out of ten.
Chen Qun continued to show his three-inch incorruptible tongue: "Jizhou has fertile land and a territory of thousands of miles, and Yecheng is one of the four major capitals, Cao Gong will not take it at this time, let alone when Pei County, compared to Jizhou for thousands of miles, isn't it a firefly compared to Haoyue" "I and Yuan Benchu are old friends, how can I fall into the well and stab a knife in the back" Cao Cao looked embarrassed.
Chen Qun laughed: "I'd rather bear the people of the world than let the people of the world bear me With Cao Gong's ability and decisiveness, I think I will make the right choice."
"Haha, Chen Changwen, who knows me," Cao Cao was stunned at first, and then laughed loudly, "If Tianyu does not take it, it will be chaotic, I will not take Jizhou, and it will inevitably be obtained by others, and when the army of the Son of Heaven cuts off Yuan Benchu's back road, Cao will inevitably raise troops to cross the river and swallow Jizhou."
Chen Qun also laughed loudly: "No poison, no husband, small amount is not a gentleman Cao Gong is really heroic, he can judge the situation well, and he will become a hegemon in the future."
Under the mediation of Chen Qun, Cao Cao agreed to Liu Wei's conditions, recovered his father's inheritance, and ordered Xiahou Yuan and Le Jin to withdraw from Pengcheng and occupy Shanyang County after the retreat of the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou. and decided to return to Xuchang immediately, secretly raise soldiers and horses, as long as Yuan Shao's back road was cut off, he would immediately fall into the well and stab Yuan Shao in the back.
Cao Cao understood that in the case of Liu Xie in the West and Liu Wei in the East, he was caught in the middle, and he was far from being able to compete with the existing territory alone.
In the face of life and death, the old relationship with Yuan Shao is not worth mentioning at all What's more, if Liu Wei's army really cut off Yuan Shao's retreat, even if he didn't send troops, Gongsun Zan of Youzhou and Ran Min would not let go of this good opportunity.
Instead of letting Gongsun Zan and Ran Min sit big, it is better to take the lead and take Jizhou, which has fertile land and a rich population, in its hands.
As long as Jizhou is in hand, the overlord of the world will have his own place The agreement was reached, Chen Qun said goodbye to Cao Cao and prepared to return to Xiapi to resume his life.
Cao Cao was reluctant: "Cao and Chen Changwen hit it off at first sight, and I have admired your talent for a long time, it is better to stay and assist Cao, I guarantee that Changwen's status will only be higher than under the Son of Heaven, not low."
"Thank you Cao Gong for your love, but the group has taken refuge in the Son of Heaven, and I really don't dare to be a treacherous slave with three surnames, and I hope Cao Gong will forgive me" Chen Qun thanked Cao Cao for his retention, took his entourage, rode his horse and whipped up, and went back to Xia Pi.
After Chen Qun left, Cao Cao sighed: "It's a pity that such a talented person can't be used by me."
He also instructed his brother Cao Bin: "Guohua, you immediately take Zidan to Puyang, where you secretly gather 40,000 to 50,000 soldiers and horses, as long as Yuan Shao's back road is cut off, a certain immediately raise troops to cross the Yellow River and go straight to Yecheng."
If you want to ask who Cao Bin is, it is Cao X, who was blasted out by Liu Yu, the son of Liu Wei, who has a command value of 93, and is also a general under Zhao Kuangyin, Taizu of the Song Dynasty.
Cao Bin got the order, and immediately led a part of his retinue with the young Cao Zhen to Puyang, secretly mobilized soldiers and horses, recruited soldiers, and prepared to stab Yuan Shao in the back.
Cao Cao left his brother Cao De and his second son Cao Pi to continue to keep filial piety for his father, and he took Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Cao Chun, Cao Hong and others to hurry back to Xuchang, secretly mobilized people and horses, and tried to harvest Jizhou before Ran Min and Gongsun Zan with a sweeping momentum.
Before leaving, he ordered Xiahou Shang to go to Shanyang County to replace Xiahou Yuan and Le Jin to guard the city, and ordered Xiahou Yuan and Le Jin to lead their troops to the north, and to fight in East Atun, looking at Yecheng across the Yellow River, ready to cross the river and seize the territory at any time.
Two days later, Chen Qun returned to Xiapi and replied to the Son of Heaven: "Your Majesty, Weichen has persuaded Cao Cao to accept the conditions, and successfully encouraged Cao Cao to send troops from behind Yuan Shao."
Liu Wei stroked his palms and laughed: "Good Chen Changwen is really an excellent lobbyist, he should be credited with a great achievement" Of course, Liu Wei would never be so cheap Cao Cao, and when Chen Qun sent an envoy to Qiaoxian, he had already sent an envoy to Beiping to inform Gongsun Zan and let him prepare to march into Jizhou.
At that time, there will be a fierce battle between several princes, including Gongsun Zhan, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, and even Ran Min.
Sitting on the benefits of the fisherman is the result that Liu Wei is most willing to see.
Successfully persuaded Cao Cao, but the grudge between the Cao family and the Tao family was resolved, and Liu Wei ordered Mi Zhu to send Tao Qian's family out of Xiapi and return to his hometown Danyang.
Anyway, Danyang is under the rule of Jiangdong, only one hundred and fifty miles away from Jinling, and it is expected that Tao Qian, the two cowardly and incompetent sons, will not be able to make any waves.
The pottery merchant brothers luckily picked up a life, kowtowed like pounding garlic and bowed down to thank him, and then fled from Xiapi in panic like a lost dog, and since then Tao Qian's power has completely disappeared from Xuzhou.

After the Tao family left Xuzhou, Liu Wei continued to feint to capture Pi, and paid close attention to the actions of Li Jing's army, as long as Yuan Shao's retreat was cut off, he immediately marched on three routes, surrounded Yuan Shao's 100,000 main force, and fought to defeat Yuan Shao in one go.
At the end of September, Qinghe Town, Xuchang County.
At the end of the alley, there is a shop with "Wu's Cookcake" hanging on it, although the location is not good, many customers come to eat the cookcake every day, and of course, the more important purpose is to see the proprietress of the cookcake shop.
Cao Anmin posted recruitment notices everywhere and returned, hungry, so he led dozens of entourages to beat horses and went straight to Qinghe Town, and saw the shops hanging "Wu's Cooking Cakes" in the streets and alleys, so he turned over and dismounted, ready to eat a meal of cooking cakes to satisfy his hunger.
"Fuck off" Cao Anmin flipped over a few prodigal sons with his palm, drove away all the people who ate the cooking cakes, and then sat down around the few tables in the store, and shouted loudly: "Give Cao Ye and his brothers a hundred cooking cakes, and use the fastest speed to burn down your shop when it is too late."
"The military master is angry, I'm afraid it will take half a day to make a hundred cooking cakes" With a woman's voice that made people crispy to the bone, a woman in her twenties walked out gracefully, her waist swaying like a willow, and she was full of charm.
A pretty face with red lips and white teeth, an apricot face and peach cheeks, and a pair of beautiful eyes that have not yet spoken, can already snatch people's souls.
"Oh, there is such a beautiful woman in such a small place, haha, this trip to Qinghe Town is really not in vain" Cao Anmin stared at the glamorous proprietress of the cake shop with a smile, and couldn't help laughing.
