I am the son of Cao thief, start the awakening of the tyrant system

Yanyun Shibaqi came in from the door again, carrying a stool.

In Cao Da's hand, he was holding a slender bamboo board.

This time Cao Zhang did not resist, but obediently lay down on the stool, allowing Cao Da to take off his pants.

"Snapped!"

The bamboo board slapped Cao Zhang's butt hard.

Although Cao Zhang is a military general, he licks blood with his knife on weekdays and is often injured.

But the butt is the most tender part after all.

Going down this plank immediately made Cao Zhang wince in pain, his body trembled, and he almost cried out!
But he still gritted his teeth and forcibly endured it.

"Snapped!"

"Snapped!"

A series of crisp sounds echoed in the lobby.

It didn't take long for thirty strokes of the cane to complete the execution.

Although Cao Zhang was still awake, his complexion was already pale, and his forehead was densely covered with sweat.

"My lord, the execution is over!"

Cao Da said in a deep voice.

Cao Mao nodded slightly, looking at Cao Zhang,
"Today's thirty lashes, are you convinced?"

"My lord, my subordinates have no complaints!"

Cao Zhang struggled to straighten up and said sincerely.

"That's good!"

Cao Mao nodded in satisfaction, then looked at everyone present, and said in a deep voice,

"Today's thirty lashes are not only a punishment for Cao Zhang, but also a warning to you!"

"I hope you can understand that compared to a little military exploits, the completion of strategic intentions is the most important thing."

"Understand?"

Everyone shouted in unison,

"understand!"

Cao Mao's eyes fell on Cao Zhang again, and he said softly,
"Come here, arrange a few doctors accompanying the army for him, so that he can see a doctor, and don't let him die!"

"After he recovers from his injury, put me in the Assault Vanguard Squad!"

Several sergeants stepped forward and carried Cao Zhang down on the simple stretcher they made.

Soon everyone dispersed, leaving only Cao Mao and Pang Tong in the hall.

"The military division has something to say?"

Cao Mao sat back and smiled casually.

"My lord, you probably didn't intend to kill General Cao Zhang today, did you?"

Pang Tong asked with a smile.

"I still can't escape the eyes of the military adviser. Yes, I don't intend to kill Cao Zhang."

Cao Mao chuckled and nodded generously.

In today's world, rewards for meritorious deeds are mostly considered from the aspects of beheading enemies and attacking cities.

Such a concept has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Even people like Gan Ning and Zhao Yun felt that Cao Zhang's beheading of 9000 people could completely offset the merits and demerits.

However, Cao Mao, who traveled from later generations, is deeply aware that compared with the overall strategic plan, the number of enemies killed in a small area is not worth mentioning.

As long as Yuan Shang's army is eaten up, Youzhou will be at your fingertips.

But because of Cao Zhang's impulsiveness, Yuan Shang fled back to Youzhou with the remaining defeated soldiers.

Although Yuan Shang absolutely did not have the strength to prevent Cao Mao from recovering Youzhou, but in doing so, it added some variables and troubles.

Because of this, Cao Mao acted like he was furious.

The purpose is to keep everyone in mind so as not to make similar mistakes again.

And in the end, Cao Zhang is his brother, and he has been following him since Hanoi County, so it goes without saying that he is loyal.

If he really killed him, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of his subordinates.

"Your Majesty is really far-sighted."

Pang Tong chuckled, then changed the topic,
"Now that Hejian Kingdom has recovered all its lost land, my lord, we should proceed to the next step of dispatching troops."

Although Yuan Shang escaped back to Youzhou by chance this time, he suffered heavy losses and was unable to resist.

It was the best time for Cao Mao to send his troops northward to conquer Youzhou.

Cao Mao's eyes fell on the sand table, nodded and said,
"What the military division said is not wrong at all."

"Pass down the order, the army will rest for a day, and then attack!"

"Order to send the military order to Liu Bao, the governor of Bingzhou, ordering him to lead 5 troops, set out from Bingzhou, and attack with us!"

"Here!"

Pang Tong led the way.

……

After a day's rest, under Cao Mao's order, Cao Jun sent his troops northward and successfully advanced into Youzhou.

All the way, Yuan Shang's men were powerless to resist.

Either look forward to the wind, or evacuate in a hurry.

In less than two days, Zhuo County, the southernmost city of Youzhou, was declared to have fallen.

The entire Zhuo County fell completely.

Cao Mao's army took advantage of the situation to capture Liangxiang, and approached Jixian County, the governor of Youzhou, less than a hundred miles away.

……

Youzhou Governor's Office.

At this time, it is deep winter, and there are not many days left before New Year's Eve.

But the governor's mansion was completely silent.

The servants who came in and out were all tiptoeing, their expressions full of anxiety.

There is no atmosphere that the old is about to be removed and the new is about to be welcomed.

A carriage stopped in front of the governor's mansion, the curtain was lifted, and Feng Ji walked out slowly.

Taking a look at the gloomy sky and the falling snow, he wrapped the thick cloak around his body tightly and walked towards the governor's mansion.

"gentlemen!"

"gentlemen!"

All the servants in the governor's mansion saluted him.

Hearing Fengji's arrival, the housekeeper hurriedly came forward, as if seeing a savior,
"Sir, you are finally here, go and see the young master, he hasn't eaten or drank for two days!"

Feng Ji smiled wryly, nodded and said,
"I see."

He took a step and walked into the lobby.

I saw Yuan Shang's face was dull, staring at the burning brazier in front of him, as if he didn't hear Feng Ji's arrival.

On the table beside him, there were several dishes of cold food.

"My lord..."

Fengji let out a soft cry.

Yuan Shang raised his head, looked at Feng Ji blankly for a while, and then came back to his senses,

"The military division is here..."

"My lord, we are leaving."

Feng Ji sighed softly.

"Withdraw? Why withdraw?"

Yuan Shang was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, when he heard this, he instantly exploded!

"Cao's army has already invaded Guangyang County, and the defenders of Guangyang County fled without a fight. If they don't withdraw, it will be too late!"

Fengji said helplessly.

"You bastard! I really raised a bunch of trash!"

Yuan Shang cursed hysterically,

"Where is Su You, let him lead his troops to stand on top of me!"

"General Su fought against the Xiongnu at Juyongguan, and was defeated miserably. Now that he has withdrawn to Changping County, he is powerless to resist Cao's army."

"Trash! It's all trash!"

Yuan Shang kicked the brazier over, and danced like crazy.

After a while, he calmed down, looked at Fengji out of breath,

"Military division, is the situation really irreversible?"

Fengji persuasively said,

"My lord, let's leave now and ask the Wuhuan people for help. There may be a chance to turn things around!"

Yuan Shang closed his eyes in pain.

Now that he has lost Youzhou, he is already a bereaved dog, so what qualifications does he have to beg Wuhuan people?

Besides, he had already seen the peeing nature of the Wuhuan people outside Yi County, so he couldn't count on them at all.
