Chapter 2514 What is it to do(1/2)
Cao Cao put aside all his pretentiousness and hypocrisy, and even developed a barrier between him and Xun Yu. He used such decisive means to protect his status on the land of Yingchuan, perhaps for his own status, but he also wanted to gain more time and accumulate more strength before this great man really collapsed.
As for Fei Qian's great man from the Three Guards of Guanzhong...
Although it is indeed good and seems to be very good, for Cao Cao, that is not the great man in his impression, not.
Cao Cao was in a family of eunuchs. He had a complex emotion about the Han Dynasty and the Emperor that even Cao Cao could not explain clearly. Perhaps he was like a loyal servant watching the decline of his family business, or like a father watching his daughter getting married, or some other related feeling, which sometimes made Cao Cao feel headache and some behavioral contradictions.
Especially when Cao Cao saw people in Shandong, he gradually began to accept Guanzhong and even pursued some of the fashions in Guanzhong...
Cao Cao really couldn't tell what it felt like.
Cao Cao was no longer willing to think about whether what he did was right or wrong. Among so many people who were killed or injured, Cao Cao could not check it out in detail, because under his command, he had already experienced countless struggles of life and death, and had already tempered his hard mentality early.
For success.
perhaps.
For the great man.
Maybe.
But more of it is still Cao Cao's obsession...
The smoke and flames of smoke echoed throughout the city made many people in the city look desperate.
Including Emperor Liu Xie.
There were riots in the whole city, and Prime Minister Cao Cao's mansion was closed, and the soldiers in the city were missing. Many news that the rioters had no idea were coming, causing chaos in the palace to suddenly become confused. Everyone did not know how the matter became like this now.
No one can tell why the riots in the city were caused, and they don’t even know what these rioters were going to do, whether they were preparing to rebel or just express their grievances.
Although the leader of the imperial guards in charge of the palace guards said that everything was safe and that no rioters had rammed the palace, the emperor Liu Xie's face was still very bad. He remembered many things from that year. He thought he had forgotten these things, but now he remembered them again.
Emperor Liu Xie subconsciously asked someone to find Cao Cao to pacify the chaos in the city. However, after the eunuch Huangmen ran out to pass the order, Liu Xie suddenly realized that he had no other choice.
No choice!
Even though he didn't like Cao Cao before.
The concubine hugged the prince and the daughter, curled up in the hall, staring at the small eyes, mixed with the terrifying crying that the children could not suppress, which made everyone's hearts messy, and made Emperor Liu Xie unable to understand at all.
What's wrong with this?
Why is this happening?
In the end, the old eunuch manager around Liu Xie was a little calmer and suggested whether to separate some guards from the palace and prepare some dry food and supplies...
The old eunuch meant that if the palace gate was lost and the chaotic people rushed in, at least they could be transferred quickly so that they would not be in a hurry.
If it really reaches an unbearable moment and cannot escape, it will be completely called a one-pot stew.
Emperor Liu Xie nodded and asked someone to go for preparation. He couldn't sit in the hall, so he climbed up to the high platform in the palace with some guards and looked out.
The fires in the city are reflected in the dark sky.
Between the light and the shadow, I don’t know how many people are running and screaming wildly, nor how many good people and bad people are there.
Suddenly a chaotic clamor at the intersection of the street, and the emperor Liu Xie couldn't help but grab the railing tightly!
The great man and the emperor fled in panic several times like a stray dog. Is it going to be staged again today?!
Amid the shouting, a group of people turned around in the corner of Yu Street in the distance, all wearing dirty and old black and red military robes...
"This is a great Han soldier!"
Liu Xie's heart jumped suddenly, and his face became paler.
These "army soldiers" carry all kinds of property on their waists and backs. They have all kinds of things in their hands, some holding swords and guns, but some holding the butcher's bone-removing knife!
Even some iron rulers and door bolts are quite chaotic.
But despite the messy weapons in their hands, these "army soldiers" have unified things, such as all kinds of wealth, and they are randomly tied into bags tied into cloth. Some even fall out as they run away because they are unable to fit. From time to time, some people stop to pick them up.
It feels like a group of bandits, more than a group of soldiers, and it just came out after robbing from a wealthy family...
"How can you be like this..." Liu Xie roared in pain, "You are soldiers from the Han Dynasty, and you should have defended your country..."
"No! These people are not soldiers!" An imperial guard beside Emperor Liu Xie suddenly spoke out, "These people pretend to be soldiers!"
『Impersonation?』 Liu Xie was stunned for a moment, 『Who is impersonating? Why is he impersonating?』
"The little one, the little one doesn't know..." The guard beside him replied, "The little one only saw that the robes on these people were all old-fashioned..."
Because when Cao Cao and Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were fighting, everyone was actually Han soldiers and their battle robes were mainly red and black. So after that, in order to distinguish between enemies and us, some changes were made. For example, Yuan Shao in the later stage even wanted to change it to blue...
Emperor Liu Xie heard that these people were pretending to be impersonated, and I don’t know why he felt a little relieved, but he still had doubts in his heart, why would anyone impersonate him?
Why is it for impersonation?
Just to make it easier to grab money, does no one dare to stop it?
Emperor Liu Xie couldn't understand, but Xiahou Dun, outside Xu County, knew where these people came from.
Some people intentionally disguised themselves as if they were disguised as Qingzhou soldiers. Their purpose was not to rob property, but more importantly, to destroy the trust of the people in the city for Cao's army!
A group of people wearing military robes of Han soldiers do dirty, humble and shameless things. Will ordinary people remember these sins on those who commit the crime?
No, the person who commits evil deeds does not have a name on his face, let alone wearing a military robe of the Han Dynasty!
Therefore, the people who suffer will remember that they will always be a great Han military robe that does not know the true or false!
With this impression formed, it would be the same as Xuzhou that day...
By then, the little trust accumulated by Cao's army in Yingchuan, Yuzhou, and even in the entire Shandong would collapse!
Anyway, Cao Jun has done some things before...
Xuzhou.
Isn't it?
Xiahou was unable to explain to Xuzhou, so naturally he could not explain the current doubts.
A temporary solution!
At that time, it was indeed a temporary temporary measure, but who could have thought that those at that time would have laid hidden dangers for today?
If we can go back to the previous years and give another chance, when Cao Cao is in a dilemma in Xuzhou and his morale is unstable, should he continue to choose to massacre the city to support the army, or sacrifice himself?
The cold wind whistled, causing the generals on the slope to recognize the flag, and the silk ribbons of the battle robe fluttered.
Xiahou Dun and a group of military generals on the high slope were silently watching the smoke rising in Xu County.
The screams of exclamations and cries in the city came here, and they were swept and torn by the bitter cold wind, and they became a little dazed.
Under Xiahou Dun, some generals of the Xiahou clan of the Cao clan, and now some people still have some incredible expressions, as if they are not awake in a dream.
The truth of the chaos broke out in the military camp. Except for several core generals such as Cao Cao and Xiahou Dun, no one knew it very well. Even the general members of the Cao Xiahou clan did not know it. Of course, this move was to keep it a secret. It was not to say that there were any traitors among the Cao Xiahou clans around Cao Cao and Xiahou Dun, but to prevent someone from accidentally leaking the news.
After all, people are too quainted, and those who have no intention may not escape the intention.
Now it seems that this plan is very successful, and it has successfully attracted all the damn people in the city...
However, Xiahou Dun was not happy to succeed in his plan, and he felt angry and sad. Although Xiahou Dun said that his wisdom was not low, it was somewhat insufficient compared to those advisers who speculated on people's hearts and planned current affairs all day long. Therefore, although he knew the tactical arrangements and process changes, he found it difficult to understand the chaos and impermanence of people's hearts...
Isn't it good to be stable and develop?
Who would have thought that Cao Cao had just sent out the two false news that "the riots in the military farm were hard to quell" and that "Xiahou led his troops to suppress the rebellion", and that it was a few days before the chaos in Xu County was in such a state!
Even the stupidest person understands that these people in the city are all coming for Cao Cao...
Local corruption and officials were corrupt. In order to investigate and eliminate these corrupt officials, Cao Cao took action and put a knife. These corrupt officials immediately didn't even have the shame and directly fought back! If these rioters succeeded today, then the news would be spread out. Cao Cao could not defend even the core core of Xu County and could not maintain order, so how could he control Shandong?!
At that time, it will be more than just a city in Xu County in front of you!
At that time, there will be independence and separatist, and separatist, and the land of Shandong that has finally been put together will become you Yuzhou people, Jizhou people, Qingzhou people, and Xuzhou people...
You are all around, and you are all enemies!
No, we.
Then Shandong is finished...
It's completely finished.
Why do you need this?
Isn’t it good to be a dignified Han man?
Why do we have to tell that we are from Yuzhou, Jizhou, and from wherever we are from, and then we despise each other, scold each other, and then...
Who is doing these things? Doing these things?
What Xiahou Dun couldn't figure it out, Guo Jia and Xun Yu knew it in their hearts.
Because Xiahou Dun was somehow considered a military general, while Guo Jia and Xun Yu were born into children of the gentry.
This is the case with the times. No one can let these gentry children understand the righteousness at once and be loyal to the country. What's more, these people have long thought they are great, they are the trendsetters of the times, the sons of God, and they are protected by God. Every night, they spend their lives in the name of a certain young man, a certain son, a man, and a famous scholar. They are surrounded by a group of people who praise each other and intoxicate each other, which makes these gentry children only think of themselves and forget that there is a "country" in front of the "home".
Cao Cao drove them mainly based on the interests of the group itself. Perhaps after Cao Cao's status is more stable and he relies on more power in the future, these teams will naturally change their attitude towards Cao Cao. But now, Cao Cao has not achieved as success as in history, so Cao Cao's prestige is much lower than in history.
Cao Cao lacked prestige, and these gentry children were arrogant and felt that they could survive the difficult Yellow Turban Rebellion, Dong Zhuo's turbulence, and the two Yuans compete for hegemony, so naturally they could continue to survive!
A big deal, change to another emperor!
To be continued...
