Hundreds of officials in the court, those who resigned or who did not resign, all hibernated, but hibernation did not mean surrender, they just had no strength to contend with Lu Bu, and chose to forbearance temporarily.

Lu Bu is very clear about this. When these people think they can do it, or when they think of some amazing plan, they don't need to look for it, they will come out on their own.

The officials were indeed as Lu Bu thought. They were forbearing and Dong Zhuo would be defeated. They believed that Lu Bu was the same. After all, he was not recognized by the world. This place is destined to be impossible for a person like Lu Bu to own.

And temporarily put it in his hands for a while, watching him help with the cultivation, when the time is right, this fertile soil will be theirs again.

The good wishes of Baiguan and Guanzhong literati Lu Bu was not interested in exploring. He had a lot of things to do. Influenced by Lu Boyong in the simulation world, Lu Bu was not in a hurry to blindly expand after he completely controlled Guanzhong. , but sent people to appease the Kanto princes, basically to determine their current legitimacy.

For example, Tao Qian was appointed as the prefect of Qingzhou, Yuan Shao was the general, Yuan Shu was the general of the left, and Gongsun Zan was the general of the Huwuwan Zhonglang.

Although the princes are unwilling to listen to the dispatch of the imperial court, there is no reason to refuse such a justifiable matter, but with this connection, the nature of the problem has changed.

Yanzhou, Juancheng.

The Yellow Turbans had already retreated, leaving only a pile of ruins.

Cao Cao sat tiredly on a stone wall, and his waist was a little sore. These days, he was running around in battles day after day. As soon as he stopped, the tiredness would sweep over him.

In the distance, a group of Cao Jun soldiers searched for a living room. Compared with the mob outside Hulao Pass, the current Cao Jun has a bit of a strong military momentum, especially in this battle to retake Yanzhou. The Yellow Turbans are no longer the Yellow Turban thieves of the past, their numbers are smaller, but their combat power is stronger.

In the process of Cao Cao's expulsion of the Yellow Turbans, the generals and soldiers in the army have gradually grown up in this blood and fire.

Recalling the original Xiliang soldiers, Cao Cao sighed. If they fought at this time, most of them would still lose, but it didn't matter. Although Yanzhou was small, it was located in the most prosperous place in the Central Plains. At its peak, a Yanzhou population had five people. More than one million. Although the population has been reduced by the Yellow Turban Rebellion, it is still a large state. There must be three million people, or even more.

This is the foundation of Cao Cao's hegemony.

"Master!" Cheng Yu came over and clasped his fists at Cao Cao: "The battle in the city is over, and a lot of Yellow Turban thieves have been captured."

"Let's keep them all. In the future, these people will all be our lieutenants!" Cao Cao grinned and said, "Zhongde, this Juancheng will be the new administration of Yanzhou in the future, what do you think?"

"Very good!" Cheng Yu nodded. The original government of Yanzhou was in Changyi, which belongs to Shanyang County and is located in the center of Yanzhou. However, just like the problem Dong Zhuo faced before, the Yanzhou nobility asked Cao Cao to come to let him drive the Yellow Turbans away. It is not true that Cao Cao is the master.

Now that the Yellow Turbans are almost wiped out, if Cao Cao can have a relatively closed environment, like the current Guanzhong, it will be fine, at least his starting point is much stronger than that of Lu Bu, and now he has military power, and the scholars do not Dare to turn your face directly.

But the problem now is that Yanzhou is almost surrounded by Yuan Shu's territory. Compared with Cao Cao, the Yanzhou gentry are obviously more inclined to Yuan Shu. If Yuan Shu sends troops to fight at this moment, these gentry have a great chance of defecting.

Cao Cao placed his headquarters in Juancheng, next to Yuan Shao to the north. Even if Yuan Shu came to attack, Cao Cao could ask Yuan Shao for help in time, and at the same time he could avoid the possibility that the gentry would overthrow him directly. Far better than the one in Changyi.

At the same time, choosing Juancheng as the place also illustrates another problem. Cao Cao will take Xuzhou as the development direction next.

It's not easy~

Cao Cao laughed. Finally, there is a place that belongs to him completely. Although the situation is not very good, take your time, you are...you are still young, right?

Rubbing his sore waist, Cao Cao sighed.

"Duke Cao!" When the two were discussing how to develop next, they saw Chen Gong hurried towards this side with a roll of bamboo slips.

"Why is the public platform in such a hurry?" Cao Cao was obviously in a good mood and greeted Chen Gong.

Chen Gong handed the bamboo slip to Cao Cao and said with a wry smile, "Since Wang Situ's death, Lv Bu has acted with a bit of humility, and this time he has given imperial edicts and rewards to all the princes."

"Situ Gong was too complacent after gaining power." They naturally knew what happened in Guanzhong. The people Wang Yun sent to appease the princes are still here with Cao Cao, and there has been news of Wang Yun's demise. months.

Cheng Yu laughed, Cao Cao and Wang Yun are old, they are already quite polite, so how can Wang Yun be complacent? Obviously, he is stubborn, but if he has a little brain, he will not let Lu Bu, an outsider, take the opportunity to take military power.

It can be said that half of the credit for Lu Bu's success should be credited to Wang Yun.

However, after Lu Bu got Chang'an, he quickly blocked all the checkpoints. The roads leading to Guanzhong such as Tongguan, Wuguan, and Pubandu were blocked by Lu Bu, which made it more difficult to inquire about the news in Guanzhong. Cao Cao was busy dealing with the Yanzhou Yellow Turbans. So I'm not paying attention, and I don't want to send a message from Guanzhong today.

Cao Cao looked at the bamboo slips, and his face gradually became happy. He looked up at Chen Gong and said, "Yanzhou Shepherd?"

"Yes, as far as I know, this time, Lv Bu is not only for Cao Gong. Yuan Gong, Yuan Shu, Tao Qian, Gongsun Zan and others have been canonized. In contrast, Cao Gong should be here along the way." Chen Gong smiled and said. .

"This move..." Cheng Yu took the bamboo slip that Cao Cao handed over, and after looking at it for a while, his eyes narrowed slightly and said, "It's to make the princes of the world recognize the imperial court!"

Chen Gong nodded. This is why he was worried. Lu Bu's move was a clear request for all the princes in the world to recognize the status of the court, but the princes could not deny it. Just like the current Cao Cao, the court will give you the official position of the shepherd of Yanzhou. , do you want it or not?

Although Cao Cao now claims to be the Shepherd of Yanzhou, this Yanzhou Shepherd has no name or reality. It was only recommended by the Yanzhou nobles to drive out the Yellow Turbans.

But now that the court took the initiative to send it down, it would be different. The court canonized and justified, Cao Cao wanted to refuse, but would it?

"All of us are ministers of the Han Dynasty, and there is only one court in the world, why don't you recognize it?" Cao Cao put the bamboo slips away solemnly.

"Just like this, then Lu Bu can hold the emperor to command the princes!" Cheng Yu frowned.

Cao Cao nodded, and once the princes recognized it, then Lu Bu must be blackmailing the emperor to order the princes. Will you accept or not accept the edict sent by the imperial court?

Of course, such edicts cannot be issued randomly. Like this time, the edicts that are beneficial to the princes, the princes accept it without burden, but if it is unfavorable, even if the princes do not refuse, they will definitely violate the yang and yin, and that will only lead to loss. The imperial court is majestic, so the best way is to use the Son of Heaven to provoke wars between the princes and make profits for themselves.

If the Son of Heaven is in his own hands...

Cao Cao thought about it for a while, and finally sighed. Now that Yanzhou was newly acquired, and it was not the kind that was completely obtained, Lu Bu had sealed off the pass, and it was not easy to win the emperor from him.

Until now, Cao Cao still remembered the feeling of oppression when he faced Lu Bu's pursuit. Even if Lu Bu didn't chase him, he felt that death would come to him at any time.

"But I don't know what job I got at the beginning?" Cao Cao was a little curious. He could send the state shepherd out in name only, so what did Yuan Shao get?

"General!" Chen Gong sighed.

Cao Cao raised his head and looked at Chen Gong in disbelief. He got a certain look from Chen Gong. This was not deceiving him.

"How dare Lu Bu have such courage?" Cao Cao frowned and stood up. In his impression, although Lu Bu was powerful, he was only a reckless man who only knew how to fight, and he was a bit arrogant, and looked like a reckless man! However, Lü Bu's boldness in dispatching officials to the Central Plains this time made Cao Cao have to re-examine this reckless man.

There is no problem for Lu Bu to take the position of general, but Lu Bu did not, and Cao Cao suddenly looked at Chen Gong again: "Then what is the official position of Lu Bu now?"

"Weiwei!" Chen Gong said solemnly.

"Weiwei?" Cao Cao repeated it and smiled: "He takes the entire court as his own, and it doesn't matter what position he holds!"

Wei Wei was ranked among the Nine Ministers, which was actually quite a lot, and this official position had no real power in this chaotic world. He was only responsible for guarding the palace and protecting the emperor, but it was also because of this that he could see Lu Bu's attitude.

Chen Gong nodded, and that's the reason: "Duke Cao, Lu Bu should not be underestimated!"

This is not something that can be done by having a strong advisor around you~lightnovelpub.net~ A powerful advisor can give advice to Lu Bu, but the final decision is in the hands of Lu Bu, excluding the possibility that Lv Bu was actually controlled by the advisor. This shows that Lu Bu has a clear understanding of himself and the court and has a strong self-control ability.

A person with this kind of quality is definitely a hero in this chaotic world. No matter who takes the Central Plains in the future, Lu Bu will be his great enemy, combined with Lu Bu's terrifying combat ability... But this can also be Lu Bu's weakness!

Chen Gong has already started to think about how to use Lu Bu's belligerence to calculate Lu Bu. After all, from other aspects, it is difficult to restrain Lu Bu now. If we really fight, we can only start from the direction of the opponent's most confident.

"No matter what, it's a good thing. Later, I will write a letter to Ben Chu and send it to him. It can be considered as a congratulation to him for winning the position of general!" Cao Cao had put this matter down, got up and laughed.

Chen Gong glanced at Cao Cao and felt a bit of pride in his heart. This one is not easy! Have the capital of the master!
