Three Kingdoms: Damn Liu Daer, dare to steal my horse!

"I'm just asking why you dare to deploy troops privately."

Hearing this, everyone was dumbfounded.

Not to punish?

Whether it was the tone of voice or the look in the eyes just now, it was clear that he was about to ask for guilt!

Who doesn't think about it?

Cao Cao's words directly made Yan Rou stunned in place, and murmured:

"This……"

Bai Chuan coughed lightly, and said in a deep voice:

"Thank you General Yan."

"Prime Minister, I led the army to Xudu without asking the Prime Minister. This is a felony. I beg the Prime Minister to punish you."

"But the minister still has to answer the prime minister's question, just because the situation is urgent."

Cao Cao immediately said with great interest when he heard the words:

"Oh? What do you mean, sir?"

"Since you know it's a sin, why do you do it?"

Bai Chuan continued:

"The prime minister was leading an army to attack Jiangdong at the time, so he decided not to be distracted at this time."

"If we wait for the messengers to deliver the information back and forth, I'm afraid the Xiliang army has already invaded Xudu."

"Xu can't afford it, and neither can the North."

"Therefore, the minister is good at making claims."

"If you punish one of the ministers, you can save Xu Du's city in exchange, I am willing!"

Cao Cao suddenly laughed and said:

"Hahahaha, sir, well said!"

"One who punishes one person can save a whole city!"

"Such enlightenment is rare in today's world, rare!"

Bai Chuan couldn't help but nodded and said:

"So, I don't regret it."

"Although there is suspicion of overreaching, I know that if I don't do this, the consequences will be more serious."

Cao Cao immediately laughed and said:

"That's right! Sir, what I said is exactly what I want to say!"

"I'm not one to follow the rules."

"Although there are laws ahead, it should be decided according to the circumstances."

"As the master said, if we don't dare to lead troops to stop the Xiliang army at this time, can we still stand in Xuduli safely and drink?"

"I just want to inform you through this matter."

"If Yuezu acts on his behalf, he should be punished! But it must be decided according to the circumstances!"

"This is an act to turn the tide, how can it be punished?"

"I'm not unreasonable!"

Hearing this, Cao Chun and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

Good guy, Cao Cao's gasping speech made everyone's hearts jump into their throats.

If Bai Chuan was punished because of this, Cao Chun and the others would definitely feel very sorry.

If this is the case, it is too chilling, but it is in line with the etiquette.

Now it is the best explanation.

But the gentry felt uncomfortable in every possible way, but they couldn't find any faults.

"Even so, meritorious deeds should be rewarded, and deeds should be punished."

"Self-deployment of troops is really a felony, so how about the merits and demerits of defending Xuchang?"

Bai Chuan smiled lightly and said:

"Chen, thank you, Prime Minister!"

Bai Chuan knew very well in his heart that Cao Cao was giving himself a step down.

If Cao Cao didn't say this himself, and started impeaching himself with this after being caught by the gentry, it would be difficult for Cao Cao to keep himself.

Balancing merits and demerits is the best ending.

Rewards are also rewarded, punishments are also punished, and merits and demerits are offset.

Whether these nobles or other people with ulterior motives, they can't find fault at all.

As expected of Boss Cao, Boss Cao has to be smart when it comes to dealing with the world.

At the same time, Cao Cao suddenly said:

"This merit has been offset, but Bai Chuan's contribution to the attack on Jiangdong is still indispensable!"

"Cheng Yu!"

Hearing this, Cheng Yu hurriedly stood up, and after saluting, raised the bamboo slips in his hand and said in a deep voice:

"Bai Chuanyu has made countless achievements in the battle in Jiangdong, and should be rewarded!"

"First, leave behind a unique strategy to treat the plague, so that hundreds of thousands of troops will be spared the pain and suffering!"

"Secondly, see through Zhou Yu and Pang Tong's strategy, and counter it with a strange strategy!"

"Thirdly, although the attack on Jiangdong failed to achieve what it wanted, but because of this, it seized the motive of the north, saw through Ma Teng's tricks, and rushed to the border."

"To sum up the three merits, Bai Chuan should be rewarded as a sacrifice to the soldiers, ten thousand taels of gold, and a thousand acres of fertile land!"

Hearing this, everyone was not calm.

Especially the gentry, who almost stood up to oppose it.

But with the merits and demerits that Cao Cao said just now, they can't say anything at all.

How is this a balance of merit and demerit?

To make it clear is to protect Bai Chuan and make Bai Chuan completely invulnerable!

The only loophole was also filled in an instant, and it was impossible to see the stitches at all.

This reward is clearly a reward for two credits!

But for a while, no one dared to say why.

If it was about Xu Du, they could still say a few words.

But right now we are talking about the Battle of Jiangdong!

No gentry has a say in this battle.

Only military generals can have the right to speak, even if it is impeachment, it needs military generals to speak, and the gentry can't get in the way at all.

However, Bai Chuan's prestige in the military camp was so high, who would impeach him?

Chapter 129 It's a good relationship with the nobles

Unlike others, Bai Chuan was stunned.

Sergeant sacrificial wine?

How could he become a sergeant's sacrificial wine just like this?

Although the sergeant's sacrifice to wine is the position created by Cao Cao, it is the head of the military division.

But there is no official position, to put it bluntly, it looks like an empty official position.

It is effective in the military camp, but it is invalid in the court.

But even so, the sergeant's sacrificial wine will still be respected by everyone.

What's wrong with no official position?Who dares to trouble the sergeant with offering wine?

If it is found, not to mention whether Cao Cao will agree or not, the entire camp will not agree!

Cao Cao's move is exactly to make Bai Chuan completely invincible!

Bai Chuan laughed and said:

"Thank you, Prime Minister, for your kindness!"

Unexpectedly, his mission was completed at this time.

It was much earlier than Bai Chuan expected.

But thinking about it carefully, it seems inevitable that this situation will appear now.

After all, since Cao Cao now has no hope of attacking Jiangdong, he can only focus on the north.

But how many things can Cao Cao care about in the north?

Externally, it is nothing more than Xiliang and the Xiongnu.

And internally, it is the gentry.

Although the Han Dynasty has declined, the gentry did not follow suit.

Many great gentry clans are still very powerful.

Even Cao Cao relied on the support of the gentry when he first made his fortune.

But nowadays, the power of the gentry is a bit too strong.

It even includes the Cao family and Xiahou family who grew up with Cao Cao.

Today's public opinion, knowledge and even official positions, etc., are almost all controlled by the gentry.

Cao Cao has seen the power of scholars from poor families, such as Guo Jia, a talented playwright, etc., are all stronger people from poor families.

But with the obstruction of the gentry, these humble scholars could not shine at all.

Therefore, it also made Cao Cao want to shake the gentry's mind.

Part of the reason why Bai Chuan was awarded the title of sergeant offering wine this time was precisely because of this.

Another part of the reason is that the position of sergeant offering sacrifices in the army has been vacant for too long.

Whether it is Cheng Yu or Jia Xu, although they are talented, they are not enough to become a sergeant.

To put it bluntly, although the prestige is enough, it does not meet the almighty standard required by the sergeant to sacrifice wine.

As for Bai Chuan's military achievements and conduct, they have all reached such a standard.

Cao Cao was so eager because he wanted to stabilize the morale of the army.

"Also, Cao Chun."

Cao Cao waved his hand and said:

"From now on, Bai Chuan and you will be the commander of the Tiger and Leopard Riders, and will be in charge of the Tiger and Leopard Rider's Tiger Talisman."

Cao Chun was taken aback when he heard the words, then smiled and said:

"The last general takes orders!"

Even if Cao Cao didn't say it, Cao Chun wanted to take the initiative to mention it.

The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry has always been under the jurisdiction of myself, but I have other duties by myself, and sometimes I am unable to do so.

Although Cao Xiu can also help govern, but now his prestige and ability are not enough to hold the position of commander.

Moreover, tiger and leopard riders have always felt superior to others, so it is difficult for anyone to control them.

But after this period of time, Cao Chun discovered that Bai Chuan had won the trust of Tiger and Leopard Riders.
