The death of Cao Shen, the protector of the Wei Dynasty, shocked the world.

The entire Wei State was in mourning for three days.

Throughout the hundred-year history of the Wei State, no minister has ever received this honor. Thinking about it, he has no regrets.

Cao Shen, who was worshiped as a first-grade Tiance general, was granted the title of Duke, honored as Taiwei, and given the posthumous title of Lie. He was buried in the imperial mausoleum (the mausoleum being built by Zhao Changqing) at the age of forty-two.

A generation of heroes fell like this.

The residence of the Protector.

In order to express his condolences to Cao Shen, Zhao Changqing personally wore sackcloth and mourned. It had been a full day since he vomited blood at the city gate, but he still felt that his body had not improved, as if he had no strength in his whole body, and he was listless.

The voices he spoke were all weak.

Mi Yue knelt outside the city gate for a whole day and night, and finally fainted due to lack of strength.

Zhao Changqing sent Jiange guards to strictly guard Mi Yue and not allow anyone to approach her.

In Cao Shen's mansion, Zhao Changqing asked about Cao Shen's first wife and said, "Is there anything else in the mansion that I need help with?"

His first wife replied with a sobbing voice: "Reporting to your majesty, my husband's funeral will be handled by the Ministry of Etiquette. There is nothing for your majesty to worry about. Your majesty should take good care of the dragon body."

Zhao Changqing nodded. He looked at a young man kneeling in front of Cao Shen's coffin, burning paper for Cao Shen, and asked, "Are you the eldest son of Cao Shen?"

The young man replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, I am the eldest son of my father."

Zhao Changqing patted his shoulder and said feebly: "From now on, you will be the Protector of the Country. You will take on the great responsibilities of the entire family. Now, can you serve as an official in the court?"

The young man said: "No, my father said that we cannot let outsiders say that our Cao family relies on its power to seek personal gain. Therefore, the common people have no official position for the time being. They are still studying at home and preparing to take the imperial examination next year, hoping to become an official through the imperial examination."

.”

Zhao Changqing smiled and said: "Well done. As a powerful family, it is not easy to have your knowledge and your father's open-mindedness. What is your name?"

The young man replied: "The common man's name is Cao Cao, and his courtesy name is Meng Da."

When Zhao Changqing heard this voice, his pupils instantly dilated.

Damn it, Cao Cao?

That Cao Cao who was a traitor in troubled times and a capable minister in prosperous times?

Wei King Cao Cao?

According to the system, this Cao Cao is also the Cao Cao he was familiar with in his previous life?

Why was Cao Shen's son named Cao Cao?

I originally wanted to give him an official position, but now it's better, should I use it or not?

What if he gains power and uses me to command the princes?

And he was Cao Cao who served as King of Wei!

To use or not to use?

Zhao Changqing frowned and fell into thought.

Finally decided to use it.

What's the big deal? Cao Cao is just a young man now, and he is still the passionate young man who was loyal to the country in the history books. He has not yet developed the attitude of being a traitor for future generations. What can't be used?

I still don’t believe it. Under my command, can Cao Cao ascend to heaven?

In this life, Cao Cao is Cao Shen’s son!

You will always be my subject!

In the Great Wei Kingdom, I will only have one king in the end.

If you want to be the King of Wei, just dream!

After thinking about this, Zhao Changqing nodded to him with satisfaction. This son of the system was actually very capable.

Although it is difficult to earn stupid points, this system will give you little surprises from time to time!

For example, Cao Shen, Chen Qingzhi and so on.

Now here comes another Cao Cao.

It's really good. Although he doesn't know why the system does this, Zhao Changqing can clearly feel that the system has an agenda.

Who created this thing?

It’s impossible for the system to appear for no reason, right?

But no matter what, at least it seems that the system will help me now.

Otherwise, the Cao Cao in this life would just have the same name and surname as the Cao Cao in his previous life. But after the help of the system, the Cao Cao in this life is no longer as simple as having the same name and surname as the Cao Cao he knew well in his previous life.

It combines all the ingenuity and wisdom of Cao Cao in previous lives.

It only takes time and practice for Cao Cao in this world to have the same intelligence as Cao Cao in his previous life.

This is definitely a good thing for Zhao Changqing.

Cao Cao saw that His Majesty the Emperor frowned, so he asked: "Your Majesty, are you okay?"

Zhao Changqing pretended to cough a few times, shook his head, and said: "I'm fine, but I just miss the days when your father was alive."

Having said this, he paused, calmed down, and then said to Cao Cao: "After you observe filial piety for three years, you can join the army. Your father is a famous general. I hope you can grow up to be like your father in the future.

Height. When the time comes, you will go work under General Bai Qi. Bai Qi has been with your father the longest, and he is famous all over the world because of the strategies your father left before his death. I believe that you will be able to serve under Bai Qi.

You will definitely train yourself and become a being that surpasses your father."

Zhao Changqing didn't know whether this decision was right or wrong, but for now, Cao Cao couldn't afford to cause any trouble, even if he took over the military power.

Because people like Zhuge Liang, Jia Xu, Chen Qingzhi, etc. all obeyed and worked under their command, there was no reason for Cao Cao to still be a traitor like in the history of his previous life.

I believe that if I suppress him, he will not do anything against heaven in the future.

In Wei State, Zhao Changqing is the sky.

The news of Cao Shen's death soon reached Xiao Yuming and Chen Qingzhi who were far away in Jin State.

The two of them made reports one after another, intending to lead their troops to kill Chu Hong and cut him into pieces.

But they were all rejected by Zhao Changqing.

At such a critical moment, he would not allow anyone to cause trouble.

After leaving the Cao family, Zhao Changqing came to the Xuanzheng Palace.

I don't know since when, Zhao Changqing felt that as long as he stayed here, he would feel at ease.

After Zhuge Liang came over, he made a serious report to Zhao Changqing: "Your Majesty, General Zhao's request for reinforcements has been sent."

Zhao Changqing nodded, stroked his forehead with one hand, took the invitation book with the other hand, put it on the table, then leaned on the chair and said, "How are things going?"

Zhuge Liang knew what his majesty was asking, and he replied: "The baggage, food, and grass have all been prepared. This time, we have prepared a force of 150,000 for your majesty. Together with Marshal Zhao, we can fight the Chu army to the death."

Zhao Changqing said: "Leave 50,000 in the capital. This time, I will only bring 100,000 soldiers there. Don't worry, when I go, I will personally cut off Chu Hong's head to see off General Cao!"

Zhuge Liang worriedly said: "Your Majesty, the war situation has reached this point. The capital no longer needs troops, and the garrison troops from Lingnan and Jiangnan have already moved closer to the capital. Even if the Chu State sends out surprise troops again and wants to attack the capital, in a short time

Inside, Wei Chen is also confident that they will return without success."

Zhao Changqing nodded when he heard the sound and said: "Okay, after everything is ready, we will send out troops after lunch tomorrow. Let Jia Xu know that this time, he will go with me. Once the Chu soldiers are repulsed, we have completed our mission."

After the layout of the Jin State, I plan to start a full-scale war with the Chu State. This time, I will also switch to our Wei State and fight in the capital of the Chu State."

Zhao Changqing was unsure about the war. He had a military advisor by his side who could listen to his opinions, so that he would not be in the dark.

At this time, Zhuge Liang actually tried to dissuade him. He only heard him say: "Your Majesty, it is better to wait until the Jin Kingdom is completely resolved, and then free up time to concentrate on dealing with the Chu Kingdom."

Unexpectedly, Zhao Changqing shook his head and said: "Old General Cao has never enjoyed a single day of happiness since he followed me. Now that he has been killed by the Chu people, how can you keep me indifferent? I have already decided.

, Within three years, I will personally lead an army of 700,000 to crush the Chu Kingdom. I will bring all the generals of the Chu Kingdom to kneel in front of Cao Guogong’s tomb!”

Zhuge Liang sighed and stopped trying to dissuade His Majesty the Emperor.

At this time, Your Majesty is very angry. How can you persuade him?

However, he had a worry in his heart, fearing that His Majesty would still do this after his anger subsided.

Because they all know that as long as it is something His Majesty decides, he will never go back on it.

Cao Shen's death was also the most senior general to die in the Wei army's foreign operations since Zhao Changqing ascended the throne.

He is a first-class Tiance general, the only one in the Wei Kingdom.

The battle on Chen Qingzhi's side also went quite smoothly.

As soon as they arrived at Jinyang City, Xiao Yuming sent a large number of troops to the Jin capital. He said bluntly, our Wei army is here to help your Jin country overcome the difficulties, but now our Wei army still has to stay in your Jin country.

It's a bit unreasonable to live in the open air on their own land.

Therefore, Xiao Yuming led the army to live in the Jin capital in a dignified manner.

As long as it occupies the capital of Jin State, once Sima Kong's matter is resolved, Wei State will have the absolute initiative in the complex situation of Jin State. By then, Jin State will be a puppet state, but Wei State
Chapter completed!
