Chapter 577

Chapter 577 Endless

Are you proud of yourself?

Just by looking at this comment, you can guess who Cao Peng is referring to.

Kuai Zheng couldn't help but laugh!

Li Yan, what Cao Peng said was obviously Li Yan.

Speaking of which, Kuai Zheng is much more familiar with Li Yan than Cao Peng. Cao Peng's understanding of Li Yan mostly comes from the memories of his previous life. In addition, his feeling for Li Yan is not very good, so instinctively

, there was a slight repulsion towards Li Yan.

After learning that Li Yan was in Wuyin, he caught up with Li Yan and started to show off, making Cao Peng even more unhappy with him.

Kuai Zheng, on the other hand, is different. Li Yan started working at the age of sixteen. He was initially a county official. From a very ordinary subordinate official, he climbed up step by step and became the current chief clerk.

For fifteen years, all Li Yan's superiors thought of Li Yan as being able to do things well. If you leave something to Li Yan, you don't need to worry about it anymore.

Kuai Zheng was once the Order of Jiyang, and as he was from a wealthy family, he had close contacts with various counties.

Therefore, Kuai Zheng was not particularly unfamiliar with Li Yan.

After he came to Wuyin, he also heard about Li Yan's arrogance, but he didn't particularly care.

In his opinion, having some ability and showing off is not a big deal. Kuai Zheng is a person with mediocre qualifications. He can't be said to be good, but he can't be said to be bad either. He does things steadily. So in his opinion, it's nothing for Li Yan to show off.

No. The key is that the person he is arrogant to is not correct! Who is Cao Peng? The dignified Grand Administrator of Nanyang County, the very famous Cao Sanpian among the scholars.

A person of this status is not something that you, Li Yan, a small bookkeeper, can handle.

Kuai Zheng felt that Li Yan had found the wrong person.

If it were another person, this kind of self-pity might turn into a behavior of indifference and tranquility. As everyone knows, Cao Peng's dislike of Li Yan comes from his heart.

"Zheng Fang is indeed talented, but sometimes he is a little too proud.

But if he helps me, I will have some confidence... Well, let's talk about it, I'll talk to Zheng Fang and hear his opinion."

Cao Peng was relieved when he saw Kuai Zheng agreeing.

In the past period of time, although he was disgusted with Li Yan and even refused to contact Li Yan, his research on Li Yan has never been interrupted. On the one hand, he suppressed Li Yan's arrogance; on the other hand, he

Paying attention to Li Yan's movements. According to Lu Chang's introduction and Jia Xu's comments on Li Yan, Cao Peng generally has a clear outline of Li Yan...

Li Yan is very talented.

But his background was not very good.

When Li Yan was a boy, his family was in a very difficult situation, and he could be described as penniless.

It is precisely this kind of environment that makes Li Yan extremely inferior and conceited at the same time. He is ambitious and likes to be clever. He has a kind of heartfelt envy and respect for people of noble birth. But at the same time, he is also extremely conceited.

He doesn't know how to deal with the relationships around him. He is very talented, but because of his arrogance and pride, people around him are often hostile to him and even slander him.

Because of this, it took him fifteen years to achieve the position of chief bookkeeper.

In history, Li Yan was recommended by Fei Guan, a famous scholar in Jiangxia, and became the edict of Chengdu after defecting to Bashu. He later stationed in Mianzhu to resist Liu Bei. Fei Guan got his name because he was good at communication and knew how to win people's hearts.

Fei Guan was the uncle of Fei Yi, a famous minister of the Shu Han Dynasty. In this regard, Kuai Zheng's temperament was exactly similar to that of Fei Guan. Although Cao Peng didn't know how Li Yan rose to power in history, according to his observation,

Kuai Zheng should have enough ability to restrict and use Li Yan. At the same time, Huyang is the southern barrier of Cao Peng. If he were to govern, one Kuai Zheng alone would be enough to bring peace to the place. But now, it is in turmoil. Although Kuai Zheng is good at

In terms of internal affairs, it can be said that in terms of commanding troops to defend against the enemy, it is far from being able to take charge of it on its own. Li Yan can serve as Kuai Zheng's assistant and garrison in Huyang. With this person in Huyang, he can at least keep Huyang from being attacked.

Cracked in a short time.

Of course, Li Yan alone is not enough either.

So after Cao Peng discussed with Kuai Zheng, he appointed Du Ji as the Nanyang Army Cao Shi to recruit troops in Jiunu City...

Back then, in order to prevent Cao Cao from raiding Jingzhou, Liu Biao opened the Nine Girls City Camp.

No one expected that ten years later, Cao Peng would reopen the Nine Girls City Camp, but his purpose was to resist Liu Biao's sneak attack. Things turned around, maybe it was true. Du Ji learned about Cao Peng's appointment

Finally, he was also extremely surprised and happily accepted the order and left.

After arranging the chief officers of Huyang and Jiyang, Cao Peng once again felt that there was a serious shortage of manpower.

As a prefect of a county, Cao Peng needed a lot of troops. In addition to the three positions of county lieutenant, county magistrate, and county administrator, he also needed to be equipped with eleven Cao Shi, Wu Guan, Wu Bu Supervisor, and Cao Peng.

There are various manpower arrangements, including the chief secretary of the office, and nearly twenty people are needed. So far, only a few people have been arranged for the eleven Cao Shi. Among them, Du Ji is the Bing Cao Shi, Puyang Yi is the Hu Cao Shi,

Lu Hao was the historian of the Fa Cao... Lu Yu was assigned the position of chief recorder of the history of the office, and also assumed the position of the historian of the meritorious cao.

But the other positions are still vacant.

Cao Peng felt a headache, but for a while, he could not find a suitable candidate.

In desperation, he had to temporarily remove Jiang Ji from the White Camel Soldiers and let him serve as Wei Cao Shi, temporarily responsible for public security. Then, he asked his former partner Chen Shi to order the thief Cao Shi.

The rest of the positions were temporarily held by Lu Yu and others, which finally made Nanyang County run smoothly... However, Cao Peng knew that this was not a long-term solution!

On the twenty-sixth day of the first month of the twelfth year of Jian'an, Zhang Liao took ten days to capture Fan Yang.

Fan Yang's general Zhao Du was killed in the battle at the head of the city, and his deputy Huo Nu burned down the county and became a benefactor...

At the same time, war broke out in the three Koreas far away overseas. With Pang Ming as the commander and Zhou Qi as the military advisor, the Han Kingdom of the Lu family invaded the Silla Kingdom. The leader of the Silla Kingdom was defeated by the troops of the Han Dynasty of the Lu family.

So they urgently asked for help from the Goguryeo Throne Palace. The King of Goguryeo immediately sent people to Guihan City to warn the Ye family members not to push further and to withdraw from the Silla Kingdom immediately, otherwise Goguryeo would definitely send troops to attack.

At this time, the palace actually did not want to pay attention to Silla.

His attention was mainly focused on the four counties of Liaodong, and Xinxinran was dispatching troops and generals to prepare to go to Youzhou to assist in the war.

The reigning palace thought that after he sent someone to warn Lu's Han Kingdom, Lu's Han Kingdom would not dare to act rashly. Unexpectedly, Lu Lan ignored his warning and directly ordered people to cut off the messenger's nose and kill him.

Rushing back to the inner city, Wei Palace was immediately furious and sent troops and horses in an attempt to attack Lu's Han Kingdom. However, under the command of Gao Shun, Lu's Han Kingdom defeated Goguryeo's troops and horses, which surprised Wei Palace.

It was not until this time that Wei Palace truly faced the Han Dynasty of the Lu family.

He did not dare to send any more troops to Liaodong, but instead mobilized troops to assemble towards Lu's Han Kingdom... It was at this time that Zhou Cang's navy successfully built ten large-scale ships and sailed out from Dongling Island, carrying

With a large amount of military equipment, baggage, and food, they were sent to Lu's Han Kingdom.

Lu's shipping route between the Han Kingdom and the Central Plains also officially opened on this day!

In the middle of February of the twelfth year of Jian'an, Cao's army came to the city of Zhuo County.

Yuan Xi saw that Cao's army was too powerful to resist, so he had to abandon the city and flee to Yuyang.

At the same time, Xian Yufu, the governor of Dai County, saw that the situation was not good and hurriedly led his troops to surrender. Zhang Yan almost lost his battle and captured Dai County...Soon, Shanggu County fell.

The whole of March was undoubtedly a disaster for Yuan Xi.

The Youzhou front he had worked so hard to manage was completely defeated in less than a month. The three counties of Youzhou fell one after another and were captured by Cao Cao. And Guan Cheng, the Yongnu order he had high hopes for, after receiving his fellow villager Huang Zhen

, he immediately opened the city and surrendered. Cao Zhang took advantage of the situation and occupied Yongnu, approaching Yuyang County. Yuan Xi saw that the situation was not good and did not dare to fight. Without waiting for Cao Zhang's troops to arrive, he led his troops to abandon the city and fled all the way until they crossed

After passing through the Ru River, they were in Feiru and barely stabilized their position. Tadun, the leader of Wuwan in western Liaoning, had always been on good terms with the Yuan family. Tadun originally planned to send troops to help, but he didn't want to wait for him to send troops. Yuan Xi

Defeated and retreated to Feiru.

Tadun was quite amused, and without saying a word, he sent troops and horses to pick up Yuan Xi and settle down in Liucheng, Wuwan's home base in western Liaoning.

When Yuan Xi evacuated Feiru, he ordered Qianzhao and Jiang Yiqu to defend Feiru, and then sent people to Liaodong to ask for help from Gongsun Kang.

By April, the fighting between the two sides came to an end.

Cao Cao stationed his troops at Wu End and took a short rest.

On the surface, both sides seemed to have stopped fighting. But in fact, everyone knew that Cao Cao would never give up until he eliminated Yuan Xi this time. Moreover, Liaoxi Karasuma and Cao Cao had a deep hatred. Thinking about it at the beginning, it was this

Wuwan in Liaoxi raided Zhongqiu and killed Cao Pi. In public opinion, Wuwan in Liaoxi raided the border and plundered the population, which was a thorn in the side of the Central Plains. As long as Wuwan was not destroyed, Cao Cao could not feel at ease. So, after a short rest, Cao Cao ordered again

, forcibly crossed the Ru River, and with a fat army, they invaded western Liaoning.

However, Cao Cao did not expect that at this moment, the rainy season in western Liaoning would quietly arrive...

The continuous rain has not stopped since early April.

Occasionally there will be sunny days for two days, but in the blink of an eye, it will rain continuously. The roads have become muddy and difficult to travel due to the continuous rain. In many places, there is heavy water. Cars and horses are not allowed to drive in shallow areas, and it is difficult to drive in deep areas.

Cheng Zhou. As a result, Cao Cao had to postpone his attack on western Liaoning.

He knows that every day this is delayed will inevitably cost countless money and food, and will also bring about many variables...

Standing at the door of the Chinese army's tent outside Wu Ending City, Cao Cao's mood was as gloomy as the endless weather. The drizzle was lingering, which made people extremely uncomfortable. A cold wind blew by, making Cao Cao couldn't help but tremble.

Han cicada. This damn Youzhou is indeed a place of bitter cold. In the Central Plains, April is the season when the sun is scorching and the heat is unbearable. But this endless weather is still extremely cold.

Many of Cao's troops felt uncomfortable due to acclimatization.

Fortunately, Cao Cao made a lot of preparations for this expedition to Youzhou.

Not only did they bring a large number of doctors with the army, but they also transferred the chief physician Shi Dongxiao from Taichang to come with them. It is precisely because of this that although many people fell ill, there was still too much trouble. But even if

In this way, Cao Cao still felt an inexplicable pressure.

At this moment, a person came from a distance.

Guo Jia held an oil-paper umbrella and ran excitedly to the door of the Chinese army's tent. He said from a distance: "Prime Minister, there is a big happy event. There is a big happy event..."
