"Of course I feel a little uncomfortable..."

Hundreds of people needed to behead their heads, most of which were women, children, and elderly people. Sobbing and crying came here faintly, then pushed forward, kneeled down, lowered their heads, and the heads rolled on the ground... Gongsun Zhi closed his eyes slightly and said calmly: "...but it is not as kind as a woman. What he did, he must be responsible for the consequences."

Cao Cao brushed his sleeves heavily and snorted coldly: "If I don't inspire them to come out, then you and I will fight Yuan Shao in a big battle, and I may jump out and stir up again. At this time, it's just right to kill them all in one breath."

"Prime Minister, do you think you can kill me?"

"If you kill more ruthlessly, you can always warn another group of people. After all, there must be people from aristocratic families in the court, but they cannot completely let them take too much power..."

At this time, the hundreds of people below had almost killed them, blood flowing all over the ground, and the original color of the street was no longer visible. The corpses were counted and loaded by soldiers, and heads were piled up one by one, and dozens of baskets were filled. Cao Cao mentioned the aristocratic family and his voice sank, "... After all, the Central Plains are not as many as you in the north. There are many aristocratic families of all sizes. There are some figures of these people in the court. It is twice the result with half the effort to do things... Haha, first of all, they must be profitable, so they cannot be of great use, otherwise, Yan, Yu, and Xu will not have the surname Cao."

"Even if they are killed and destroyed, they will be like crucian carp rushing across the river." Gongsun Zhi raised his head and smiled, then waved his hand indifferently, and did not continue talking about this matter, turning around and walking on the top of the city with Cao Cao.

He walked slowly and talked about the next important matter.

"Since the Xudu affairs have come to an end, the Prime Minister should be preparing to go south to Wancheng. But before that, I will go to Shangdang County. If possible, you will sneak attack Jizhou. You will also know the war there. Yuan Shao asked the four generals of high-ranking officials, Yan Liang, Wen Chou and Zhang He to besiege Taihang. Why not just take advantage of his attention there. I intend to sneak attack Chaoge and Yecheng directly from Hanoi..."

"I'm a little anxious. Do you need help to restrain me?"

"It's not necessary. At this time, I went there just to understand the siege. If the Prime Minister's troops were also mixed in, it means that the war would be expanded. It's better to train Qingzhou troops and connect Xuzhou to surrender."

"It seems that Yuan Benchu ​​is going to suffer another loss in cavalry matters. I hope he is stronger than Yuan Shu."

The sky was shining brightly, and a faint smell of blood floated here. As we walked, the content of the conversation had been transferred to Shangdang County. When it came to the funny place, Cao Cao's laughter first rang out, and then Gongsun Zhi also remembered.

Although the two of them were relaxed, they knew that Yuan Shao, who owned four prefectures, had begun to become stronger in the past or two years. In a few years, he would really become a giant in the north, making people dare not joke around any longer. On the other hand, the Central Plains was in the four battles. Although they destroyed Lu Bu who occupied Xuzhou, there were Zhang Xiu from Wancheng, Liu Biao from Jingzhou in the south, Yuan Shu from Shouchun, and even Sun Jian's son, Sun Ce and Xiliang who were faintly emerging in Jiangdong, seemed to be uneasy. There was pressure to resist Yuan Shao, and the two of them were just relaxed.

"I can't say that. Although I restricted the inflow of horses on the grassland, merchants still have to sell them quietly, as well as those trafficked by Liaodong Xianbei and Wuhuan people."

Cao Cao smiled and raised a finger: "Gongsun, say less. Jizhou power crossbow!"

"What the Prime Minister said."

On the other side, Gongsun Zhi's eyes stopped serious, swept over Cao Cao, who was with one hand beside him, and looked at the distant fields outside the city. "My father's white horse Yichen has fallen under a powerful crossbow. Yuan Shao is not as good as Lu Bu, Yuan Shu and others. Although he is not good at martial arts, he has more civil and military skills than anyone else, and there are many capable people. Jizhou is vast and rich, with a dense population. The Prime Minister and I have deployed our troops, and then there are not many troops who can really fight against each other."

"Speaking of this, there are more than 100,000 people in our three states who can fight, but there are many places to defend. At that time, there are only tens of thousands of people who can be sent out." Cao Cao's eyes calmed down. When he said this, he glanced at Gongsun Zhi, and the latter turned his face and smiled, "The general is in planning, not in courage. If the soldiers are not in many, there is energy. You and I still have a chance of winning."

After chatting for a while, Gongsun Zhi was about to leave Xudu and return to the military camp outside the city. He talked about something with Cao Cao. Finally, he turned around and got down the city wall, and followed Dian Wei, Li Ke and other wolf cavalry guards to the direction of the main camp west of the city.

In the sky, there was a thunderous thunder and a thunderclap. Cao Cao's smile gradually subsided, his fist pressed on the walls, and he watched the execution ground in the city, the crowd had dispersed and his body was cleaned up and taken away.

In the south where he didn't know, Baili's quick horse was holding an emergency disaster and was on his way to Xudu at the fastest speed. In a few days, the news would be presented to the desk. More and more victims of fleeing disaster began to spread, sweeping around the surrounding counties and counties like a tide.

"Plague... refugees..."

Cao Cao tightened the silk that carried huge information and closed his eyes with gritted teeth.

***************

At the end of June and early July, the hot weather has not yet come out.

The Black Mountain Cavalry, Wolf Cavalry and the two thousand Bingzhou cavalry who had arrived in Xudu for some time were already on their way to Hanoi, and they were on the flat official road, heading north across Yanzhou, crossing the Yellow River. On July 12th, they entered the boundary of Hanoi and started raining.

Step on

The horse's hooves quickly rolled over the rain splashed in the puddle, and more horse's hooves galloped past the ground, shaking the earth. Gongsun Zhi, who was the leader, wrapped his cloak and stopped beside the road. He looked at the outline of the city behind the rain curtain, turned his head and spoke loudly to the guard behind him: "Let the team behind speed up. Except for Lu Bu to protect his family, the rest of the people immediately followed and made a feint attack on Hanoi."

The cavalry rushed to the rear. Since entering Hanoi, there was almost no time to know the situation in Yanzhou and Yuzhou. After removing several potential threats, there were not many others that could interest him. The rain was a bit heavy and it had been several consecutive days. In this weather, it was not impossible for a large number of cavalry to travel, but it would be affected to a greater extent. In addition, there were female relatives in the team, so they could only move in batches. On the one hand, in order to monitor Lu Bu and the surrendered army, Gongsun Zhi walked in front first, which was another reason.

"Li Ke, take people to the city first. When you see Wang Kuang, you must keep me even if you are sleeping."

The sound of words echoes in the rain.

A young man named Li Ke received the order, holding the token of the Northern Governor's token issued by the imperial court, and left the team with more than ten cavalry, galloped in the rain towards the direction of the city wall, and then entered the city gate. On the other side, Wang Kuang sneezes a few times, looked at the rain curtain hanging outside the window, pushed away his concubine's body, rubbed his face, and sat on the edge of the bed.

"Is the eyelids twitching today? Is it because the trouble is coming?"

The beautiful concubine put on her dress and poured him a bowl of warm water, "Are you too much trouble?"

Wang Kuang took the water and took a sip. After hearing her words, he shook his head. Looking at the wind swaying with rain outside the window, he felt more and more uneasy. Then, hurried footsteps came from outside, and a servant knocked on the door: "Prefect, Governor Gongsun sent someone to the mansion and said he wanted to see you."

Smack

The porcelain bowl slid from his hand and fell to pieces. Wang Kuang pulled his bloated body up from the couch, pursing his lips tightly, feeling a little regretful: "As a matter of trouble, I knew that this white wolf went back and forth once, and there would be no good thing. If I had known this, I would have regretted not to kill my adviser..."

"Since my husband doesn't like that person, just beat them out." The beautiful concubine comforted him, and drew circles on his thick chest, "... Husband is a hero, how can a governor from a horse thief be compared with my prefect."

"You are just sweet-mouthed. But what you said is reasonable. I thought that when I was Wang Kuang confronted Dong, I was also one of the princes. How could I live more and more and more, come!"

Wang Kuang sat down with a majestic look on his face. When the servant bowed and walked in, his voice gradually weakened, "...You go and treat them well, don't neglect..." Then, his voice rose again, "...I will talk to them with my armor and sword."

"yes."
