The heavens began from the great age

Chapter 313 Engagement and Decision Making

Hearing that Yang Xiao arrived with the money and food supported by the Mi family, Cao Cao even greeted him personally.

There is no way, he has been really poor and crazy recently.

Although the troops were streamlined and farming was started.

But growing food is by no means a day's work, and the frontline has to maintain the war with Lu Bu, which is really stretched.

The arrival of Mi Fang's money and food can be said to have solved his serious problem, and he even made a long history of Mi Fang on the spot to show his encouragement.

Only then did Yang Xiao notice that there was a new civil servant beside Cao Cao.

It looks like he is 27 or [-] years old.

Although he was handsome, his complexion was yellow and white, obviously a little unhealthy.

After receiving Cao Cao's reward, Yang Xiao personally sent Xia Houjuan to Xia Houyuan's mansion.

Then he took Mi Zhen back to his house.

It was only the next day that Xia Houjuan came to visit in person again, although he kept saying that he was here to see Mi Zhen.

But seeing her look shy and timid, how could Yang Xiao not know what was going on.

He teased a few words casually, only to make Xia Houjuan's eyes shine and his face turn red.

Mi Zhen is aware of Yang Xiao and Xia Houjuan's secret communication.

But he didn't care.

One is because it is common for men nowadays to have three wives and four concubines.

The second is that Yang Xiao is too strong in bedtime, she can't bear it at all, and wants to find someone to help her share it.

Moreover, Xia Houjuan is Xia Houyuan's niece and is related to Cao Cao.Marrying her will have a lot of benefits for Yang Xiao's development in Cao Ying.

It's just that Xia Houyuan is still commanding the army to fight against Lu Bu, and there is no way to come back.

Otherwise, Yang Xiao would have found someone to come to propose marriage a long time ago.

Time passed like this.

In the blink of an eye, it’s October.

Although the weather is cold, the hearts of Cao's generals are warm.

Because the effect of farming is very good.

With high-yield corn, potatoes and sweet potatoes, the yield per mu has reached more than 2000 catties.

The total income is 75 shi, enough to feed [-] troops for two years.

With this good news!
Although the brains of the frontline people were like dogs, Cao Cao still held the banquet in a panic.

They even sent someone to bring Xia Houyuan back from the front line.

"Ziyang, both of your strategies have been successful. I got Ziyang like a fish in water!"

During the banquet, Cao Cao drank two glasses of wine and took Yang Xiao's hand due to his drunkenness.

"It is also Ziyang's luck to meet Duke Ming and to be able to show what he has learned in his chest!"

Yang Xiao turned around and bowed, making Cao Cao laugh out loud.A look like a monarch and his ministers get along well.

Then, Cao Cao called Xia Houyuan again, and even arranged for Yang Xiao and Xia Houjuan to marry on the spot.

Although Xia Houyuan was on the front line, he knew his niece's thoughts based on the letters he exchanged, so he naturally had no reason to disagree.

The two parties decided on the marriage on the spot, and agreed to get married on New Year's Day.

"Brother, now that we have enough troops and food, it's time to drive away Lu Bu's guy! I've been waiting for this day for a long time!"

After another two rounds of drinking, Cao Ren stood up and said loudly.

"Duke Ming, it's time. The general situation of the world has changed, if we continue to delay, I'm afraid we will lose the opportunity!"

Cheng Yu also added some words.

Then, he talked about the recent situation.

Here Cao Cao and Lu Bu are fighting fiercely, and other places are also lively and ruthless.

First there was chaos in Youzhou, and Liu Yu died at the hands of Gongsun Zan.Then, Yuan Shao sent troops to Youzhou to fight Gongsun Zan in Panhe!Gongsun was defeated, so he had to retreat to Yijing.

This battle was called Yuan Shao seeking justice for Liu Yu, but no one knew his purpose, which was to capture Youzhou and connect it with Qingzhou and Hebei.

In the south, Sun Ce raised his troops and defeated Liu Yao, taking all of Yangzhou.

The same was true here in Chang'an. Li Jue and Guo Si were fighting in a mess.Li Ji even forced the Han Emperor to make himself the Grand Sima.

"Duke Ming, it's time! Ziyang is willing to be the vanguard. One is to contact wealthy households from all over the country to respond to our attack. The other is to assassinate the general of Lu Bufang's army, leaving the dragons without defense.

The place of Chang'an is related to the position of the emperor.I think the two thieves, Li and Guo, will definitely rise up again, and the emperor will definitely not be able to live in Chang'an.

If Lu Bu can be defeated as soon as possible, the emperor will be welcome back.Take the emperor to command the princes, Minggong can accomplish great things! "

"Using time, plotting stabs! The surface is shady, not the right way. But in fact, it is a good deal with no harm. Ziyang's talent is comparable to that of a certain one!"

During the dinner, Guo Jia drank one glass after another.

However, he wasn't too drunk. Hearing Yang Xiaozhi's words, he couldn't help but look up at him.

Then, he moved to Cao Cao's side and whispered, "Duke Ming, it's a decision!"

"Okay, after half a month, raise troops to conquer Lu thief! Yanzhou must be pacified before New Year's Day.

Ziyang, you have worked hard during this time.On New Year's Day, I will personally officiate for you! "

Seeing the surging crowd, especially Guo Jia, who was shocked at the first sight, also agreed to send troops, Cao Cao was also excited.

He took the Yitian Sword and swung it at several places on the case.

The case was promptly resolved, and the food and wine were spilled all over the floor.

This situation seemed disgraceful, but it greatly boosted morale and caused Cao's generals to scream.

Next is the military meeting to determine the order of attack and the strategy of dispatching troops.

Regarding this, Yang Xiao just heard it, and he mainly cooperated.

After listening to the military discussion, he said goodbye and left.

He first returned home and said goodbye to Mi Zhen, and then went to Xiahou Yuan's Mansion.

He secretly met Xia Houjuan, first talked about their marriage, and then said that he was going to the front line.

Then, he took a few bites of Xia Houjuan's food.

Then he took Hou Tong, Zhang Sui, and 500 subordinates out of the city.

In the middle, he held another military meeting.

Ask Hou Tong and Zhang Sui to disperse the personnel, and each group of 50 people will go to Juye and other places to contact the gentry and wealthy households.

If the other party is willing to serve Cao Jun, then naturally there is no problem.

But if he hesitates even a little bit, he will be punished.

He then left a notice, placing the blame on Lü Bu for weapons and other items. He only said that Lü Bu had taken advantage of their family property and was unable to donate it to them. He was so angry that he did this cruel thing.

"Sir, will this convince others?"

Hou Tong wondered after listening to Yang Xiao's words.

"Does it matter whether you believe it or not? The important thing is to give them an excuse.

Cao Gong entered Yanzhou, although he asked for money and food, but he had a bottom line.Lu Bu is a generation of tigers and wolves, and if he moves, he will ransack his family and destroy his family.Those people should have regretted leading the wolf into the house long ago.

If they act like this, they know that this is what Mr. Cao did, so what?

One side is a tiger or a wolf, and if you seek skin from a tiger, you will die sooner or later.

On the one hand is Mr. Cao, there is still hope in cooperation, if they do not cooperate, they will die on the spot.If it were you, how would you choose? "

Yang Xiao was not angry because of Hou Tong's question, but was glad that he would have such consideration.

After so much training for a period of time, he is qualified to take over his own mantle, so he explained it this way.

On the contrary, Zhang Sui is too obedient and rarely has his own opinions.

He can be a good executor, but he is not suitable for commanding an army or guarding a party.

"The general understands, thank you general for your guidance!"

When Hou Tong heard the words, he suddenly realized, and after he clasped his fists together, he began to form teams again and sent the teams out.
