After Cao Cao paid his respects to the civil and military officials, he rewarded him again.
The dead son Cao Pi was posthumously crowned as the king of Qin, Cao Ning as the king of Yan, Cao Zhang as the king of Qi, Cao Zhi as the king of Wu, Cao Chong as the king of Chu, and all the other sons were crowned kings.
He also canonized the four generals under the Xiahou brothers and Cao Ren, namely Cao Bin, the general of the expedition to the north, and Cao Wei, the general of the expedition to the east.
In order to show that he treats everyone equally, and not just canonizes his own clan, Cao Cao also crowned Guo Ziyi, who had pursued Temujin's outstanding performance, as the general of the expedition to the west, and added Yu Ban, a minister of Conglong who had been sitting in the Central Plains with Cao Ren, as the general of the expedition to the south.
Then he canonized Wang Yanzhang as the general of Zhenbei, Xia Luqi as the general of Zhennan, Jia Fu as the general of Zhendong, and Yingbu as the general of Zhenxi.
Later, Cao Wenzhao was canonized as General Anbei, Shan Xiongxin as General Annan, Pang De as General Anxi, and Le Jin as General Anton.
Under Si'an, he was canonized as General Wei Pingbei, General Xu Chupingnan, General Zhang Xiupingxi, and General Chen Ziyun Pingdong.
The other Han Baohu, Wen Ping, Li Dian, Li Tong, Tong Yuan, Sima Cuo, Zhang Yan, Lu Zhishen, Shi Jin, Cao Hong, Cao Zhen, Xiahou Shang, Hao Zhao, Yan Xing, Tong Yuan and others were all awarded the title of general.
In addition to the military generals, other civil officials Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Cheng Yu, Xun You, Sima Yi, Cao Di, Man Chong, Kuai Liang, Liu Fu and others were all awarded the position of minister.
For a time, everyone has a reward, and everyone is promoted, which is really the emperor's grace and celebrates all over the world.
Worship the marquis and protect the descendants, but this is not enough After the canonization was completed, Cao Cao decided to follow Liu Wei's method of buying people's hearts and rewarding the ministry with honors.
"According to the report of the spies, a few days ago, Liu Wei sealed the civil and military forces in Chengdu, and got the name of four elephants, five tigers and six lins, and I first ascended to the great treasure today, and I also rewarded Zhuqing with an honorary title" Cao Cao glanced at the civil and military under his feet with a sharp gaze, and said loudly.
Everyone listened attentively, and the hall was silent for a while.
"I have decided to confer the title of Dragon and Tiger on Jia Fu and Jing Bu" Cao Cao's lips moved, and he said the first honorary title.
Cao Cao knew that under his command, Jia Fu and Jing Bu were the strongest in terms of martial arts, but the merit of the two was not high enough, and they could only be under the three horsemen and four marches of the first ladder, so he decided to use the honorary title to win the hearts of the two generals, and rewarded the two of them with the title of "Dragon and Tiger" as soon as they came up.
Yingbu was not in Yecheng, only Jia Fu was above the main hall, listened to Cao Cao's canonization, and hurriedly came out to thank him: "Your Majesty, the dragon is a symbol of the Son of Heaven, how dare Jing Bu and I be canonized at the time, please take back your Majesty's fate" Cao Cao stroked his beard and laughed: "Although Aiqing is relieved, there are several kinds of dragons, including green dragons, dragons, black dragons, etc., and the emperor is the true son of the dragon, so you can accept it with peace of mind, in my heart you are a dragon."
"Your Majesty is reasonable" After listening to Cao Cao's explanation, the hall resounded with praise.
Jia Fu was overjoyed and thanked him: "Thank you Your Majesty for the generous seal, the minister Jia Fu will swear to serve His Majesty to the death, although the horse leather shroud, it is also unrelenting" Cao Cao bowed slightly, and after Jia Fu retreated, he announced again: "I have decided to canonize Xia Luqi, Wang Yanzhang, Dian Wei, and Xu Chu as the four spirit generals, and each lord is the southeast and northwest, which is Qinglong, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Xuanwu."
As soon as Cao Cao's voice fell, in addition to Xia Luqi, who was serving under Cao Bin in the north, Wang Yanzhang, Xu Chu, and Dian Wei came out together to thank him: "Thank you, Your Majesty, the ministers will definitely fight to the death and be loyal to the country."
Liu Wei was able to give the same to his subordinate Cao Cao, and after canonizing the four spirit generals, he announced again: "I have decided to set up eight generals, and awarded them to Shan Xiongxin, Pang De, Han Baohu, Zhang Xiu, Cao Wenzhao, Cao Hong, Le Jin, Wen Ping, and other eight people."
Cao Cao didn't have as many talents as Liu Wei's subordinates, so he was rewarded casually, and it was basically the same.
As Cao Cao's clan, Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, and Yu Ban, who are old seniors, are all in high positions, so there is no need to deliberately envelop them.
"Xiahou Miaocai listens to orders" After the canonization was completed, he began to enter the military meeting, and Cao Cao's gaze first swept to Xiahou Yuan and called out loudly.
Xiahou Yuan strode out of the column with his head held high, and arched his hand: "Please give your majesty a decree" Cao Cao pointed to the east: "Order you to lead the four generals Cao Zhang, Le Jin, Li Dian, and Lu Zhishen, lead the men and horses of the headquarters to cross the Yellow River, attack Qingzhou, and then transfer Pang De and Dolgon to your command to listen to the order." ” "Respectfully obey the holy decree, Xiahou Yuan hereby assures His Majesty that he will take the Qingzhou Governance Office within a month and capture Wang Meng alive" Xiahou Yuan patted his chest and confidently played the ticket.
Liu Wei's gaze swept to Cao Hong and Sima Yi again: "You two hurry back to Xuchang, inform Cao Zixiao, and let him join forces with Yang Su to attack Yue Fei."
On the one hand, he mobilized troops to attack Qiaojun, Runan and other places to recover the lost territory" "Obey the order" Cao Hong and Sima Yi surrendered the order together.
"Yuan let listen to the order" Xiahoudun strode out: "I hereby obey Your Majesty's orders" Cao Cao cleared his throat: "Order you to lead five generals including Wang Yanzhang, Xu Chu, Chen Ziyun, Wen Ping, and Da Xi Changru, with Xun Gongda and Cao Di as military advisors, and raise 70,000 troops out of Puyang, attack Peiguo, and attack Xuzhou."
"Your Majesty, please take a good look, if you go to Xuzhou here, you will behead Qin Qiong and Zhang Juzheng's heads under your command" The one-eyed blue wolf had a murderous face, and his words were chilling and hideous.
Cao Cao's last gaze swept to Guo Ziyi: "Guo Ziyi, order you, Jia Fu and Shan Xiongxin to lead 50,000 horses as the vanguard, pass through Yanzhou as soon as possible, attack Pengcheng, and knock Huainan" With Cao Cao's order, the wolf smoke in Yecheng was billowing out, the flags were waving, and the people shouted and neighed.
Xiahou Yuan took Pang De and Dolgon, the two generals, to return to the plain and prepare to attack Qingzhou.
Sima Yi and Cao Hong returned to Xuchang to assist Cao Ren.
Xiahoudun took Xun You and Cao Di as military advisors, and Wang Yanzhang as the vanguard, led Xu Chu, Wen Ping, Da Xi Changru, Chen Ziyun and others to raise 70,000 troops to cross the Yellow River and kill Ren Cheng Peiguo.
Guo Ziyi, Jia Fu and Shan Xiongxin led 50,000 forward troops to cross the Yellow River, aiming directly at Pengcheng, intending to capture Shouchun, an important town in Huainan.
And Cao Cao personally led Dian Wei, Cao Wenzhao, Han Baohu, Cao Shen, Dong Ping, Li Tong and other generals, with Fan Zeng, Guo Jia and other strategists, and raised 80,000 troops.
When the army was leaving, Guo Jia suggested: "Please send an envoy to Li Tang to ask for a meeting with Li Shimin, and strive to reach an alliance with him as soon as possible to break Liu Wei" Cao Cao was about to send a messenger, when suddenly a guard came to report: "Your Majesty, Li Mu, the governor of the northern part of the Tang Army, sent a messenger to ask for a meeting." ” Guo Jia was overjoyed when he heard this, and clapped his hands and said: "Wonderful, wonderful, it seems that Li Ji is taking the initiative to cooperate with our army."
After Li Ji's envoy came to Yecheng, he learned the news of Cao Cao's accession to the throne and proclaimed emperor, first congratulated and then explained his intentions.
It turned out that Li Ji saw Cao Cao's intentions, knew that Cao Cao had gathered heavy troops to prepare for a decisive battle with Liu Wei in the Central Plains, and was worried that he would take advantage of the situation to attack Youzhou, so he left 100,000 horses of Cao Bin's army to garrison Zhuo County, so he sent an envoy to give Cao Cao a reassurance.
"My family Li Dudu said that I would like to ask the king to focus on the Central Plains, and I can also transfer General Cao Bin's corps to Nanpi to entangle Li Jing's corps.
When necessary, the governor of my family will lead the king of Xifu Zhao to storm the Han army, help the king, oh, no, help His Majesty, and after destroying the Eastern Han Dynasty, he will divide the world equally in the future.
The envoy of the Tang Army spoke fluent language and explained his intentions.
Cao Cao high-fived and praised: "Haha, if this is the case, it is really wonderful, I am willing to advance and retreat together with the Tang Emperor, and after pacifying Jiangdong in the future, I will share the world."
Li Ji's envoy received Cao Cao's reply and hurried back.
Cao Cao still followed Guo Jia's wishes and sent an envoy with gifts to Wang Jiancheng on the Goguryeo Peninsula to meet Li Shimin and express his intention to get married.
It is equivalent to Liu Wei crossing the independence of the new country before him, establishing diplomatic relations with other countries, and letting the other party recognize his status.
Fan Zeng made another suggestion: "Your Majesty, please send another envoy to Luoyang, and ask Yang Su to send troops to the Tiger Prison, and General Cao Ren will be horns to contain Yue Fei's army."

Otherwise, Yue Fei's center of gravity will shift to the east, and Huainan will be difficult to capture for a while."
"In the end, the Luoyang court still bears the name of the Han family, and I ascended the throne as emperor like this, I don't know if Yang Jian and they still maintain an alliance with me" Cao Cao stroked his beard and raised his worries.
Fan Zeng stroked his beard and laughed: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the Yang clan has long had the intention of usurping the Han Dynasty, but one of them has no one to take the lead, and secondly, it cannot completely control the entire Western Han Dynasty.
As long as Zhu Di, Liu Yu, Zhao Kuangyin and other small princes are damaged in the front, maybe Yang Jian will abolish Liu Ling and ascend the throne as emperor himself."
Cao Wei's 200,000 troops crossed the Yellow River and marched to the Central Plains.
Xiahou Yuan in the Plains and Cao Ren in Xuchang also dispatched their own troops and aimed at Qingzhou, Runan, and Qiaojun.
Cao Bin got Cao Cao's letter in Youzhou, so he left Cao Chun and Zhang Xiu to guard Youzhou, and he took Yingbu, Xia Luqi, Tong Yuan, Hu Che'er and others to move to Nanpi, intending to contain Li Jing and the Weiqing Army and prevent them from dividing their troops to return to Qingzhou.
Seeing Cao Cao's troops, Li Ji really did not lose his words, and personally took Li Yuanba, Li Siye, Li Guangbi, Yuan Chonghuan, Mao Wenlong and others to raise 150,000 troops to leave the Youbeiping Dynasty Zhangwu to march, intending to take advantage of Li Jing's entangled by Cao Bin's army to attack the city and seize the vast Bohai County.
Just when the Central Plains was surging, Liu Wei also raised troops to leave Chengdu, approached the city of Luoxian, and called Liu Yu and Zhao Kuangyin to fight, and the two ordered to close the city gate, defend it with danger, and let Liu Bian scold in every way, but he did not fight, and he was determined to drag Liu Bian to death and let Cao Cao take advantage of the plan to enter.
Hearing the news of Cao Cao's ascension to the throne as emperor, Liu Wei was not furious, for such a man with an army of 500,000 troops, if he curled up in Hebei and waited for death, he would be surprised.
Liu Wei was also glad that he had the elites of the past generations under his command, and he could completely deal with multi-front battles, even if Cao Cao attacked with all his might, he could carry him in the Central Plains, and it was difficult to move an inch.
"Ding Dong Cao Cao ascended the throne as emperor, with an army of 500,000 and a population of no less than 10 million under his rule, triggering the path of the hidden plot hero, and obtaining three rewards" t1706231537:
