Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

Chapter 758

Yuzhang County, Chaisang City.

Ten miles away from the west of the city, a group of Yuzhang county civil and military officials stood on both sides of the road. One of them was even more impatient, looking to the west from time to time, as if looking forward to it.

"President, Prime Minister Cao's army should be coming soon, right?"

Chang Shi on the side said cautiously.

"Quickly, Prime Minister Cao has sent an envoy to explain, just today."

The speaker was Sun Fu, the prefect of Yuzhang. He was originally an important minister in the Sun family clan, but was the son of Sun Jian’s elder brother Sun Qiang. He was also the cousin of Sun Ce, Sun Quan and others. County prefect.

If Sun Ce was still there, then even if Sun Fu was afraid, he would never defect to Cao Cao directly. However, Sun Fu had no confidence in the young Sun Quan. In his opinion, Cao Cao was scheming and Sun Quan was definitely not his opponent.

Instead of stubbornly resisting, it is better to surrender.

At this moment, a large swath of smoke rose from the west, and there were countless black figures in the khaki smoke.

The earth was shaking, and tens of thousands of soldiers were marching toward the east aggressively.

Tatata! The first to arrive was more than a thousand cavalry units. More than a thousand cavalry flew into front of the officials of Yuzhang County. The officials of Yuzhang County were all pale, and they had never seen a large-scale charge of cavalry in Jiangdong. , The first time I saw the cavalry Mercedes-Benz, this shocking feeling made them terrified.

"Call!"

Cao Ren grabbed the war horse, sat on the horseback, and looked down at many Yuzhang county officials, and said loudly, "Where is Yuzhang prefect Sun Fu?"

"Some is here."

Sun Fu stood up and pleased: "It's Sun Fu below, I don't know who the general is?"

"Xunai General Cao Ren!"

Sun Fu's eyes lit up, Cao Cao, Cao Ren, it seems that the relationship between Cao Ren and Cao Cao is extraordinary, and they should be pleased.

"It turned out to be General Cao, I really admired him for a long time."

He continued, "I don't know where Prime Minister Cao is?"

"No hurries?"

Cao Ren said coldly: "Wait, the prime minister is coming."

After all, Cao Ren stopped talking, but stationed a horse to stop by. The more than a thousand Cao Jun cavalry were also divided into two halves and stationed beside the road, like a guard of honor waiting for something.

boom! boom! boom!

The footsteps of the tens of thousands of troops were neat and uniform. They stepped on the ground and fell in the ears of the officials of Yuzhang County. Their complexions became paler and they were afraid to speak, and at the same time they all had the same idea in their hearts.

It seems correct to defect to Prime Minister Cao this time.

Tens of thousands of troops are like copper walls and iron walls, with flags fluttering in the formation, revealing a sense of killing.

Suddenly, tens of thousands of soldiers fled to the left and right, opening up a path like a wave splitting and breaking, and in this path, a huge Chinese army Daqi was slowly surrounded by hundreds of riders. come. These hundreds of cavalry were all wearing armor, and the flattery under the crotch was fat and strong, revealing a vigorous air.

And from these hundreds of riders, there is a broad-armed, full-faced fierce general.

The officer shouted, "Where is Sun Fu?"

With a loud shout, it was like a thunderbolt, and Sun Fu hurriedly stood out from the crowd.

"The villain is here."

"Are you Sun Fu?" Dian Wei asked loudly.

"Yes, yes, I don't know what the general commanded?" Sun Fu stepped forward and bowed his head.

A look of contempt flashed in Dian Wei's eyes: "Come Prime Minister Cao ordered you to come forward and meet, come here."

Sun Fu nodded and said yes, followed behind Dianweima's ass, and walked towards the Chinese army.

On both sides of the road are all tall and murderous Cao Jun soldiers, their faces are serious, they are holding bright swords in their hands, and Sun Fu only feels a substantial murderousness surrounding him, so he can only walk forward tremblingly, fearful Whenever he is not paying attention, the blade will fall on himself.

Frightened all the way, Sun Fu finally walked to the Chinese Army.

"Prime Minister, Sun Fu has brought it here."

"Well, you are Sun Fu?"

Hearing this voice, Sun Fu didn't dare to look up, and whispered: "In the next Sun Fu, meet the prime minister."

After all, Sun Fu knelt to the ground as soon as he raised his robe, but was suddenly held by a big hand.

He looked up and saw someone looking at him with a smile. He had a dark face, red robe and armor. At first glance, he would never think that he was the prime minister, but he didn't know how to get it. Sun Fu always felt a while. Sincerely fearful.

"Hehe, Sun Taishou abandoned the secrets and turned to the bright. Those who know the current affairs are handsome men. What Cao admires most is such smart people as Sun Taishou."

Cao Cao pulled Sun Fu up and said with a smile.

Sun Fu bowed and said with sincerity and fear: "Prime Minister Cao is the Ming Master. It is a good thing for the people of Jiangdong to shelter under the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister's New Deal will surely enable the people of Jiangdong to bathe in grace."

Hearing the implied meaning in Sun Fu’s words, Cao Cao chuckled: "Don’t worry, Sun Taishou, after a certain reunification of Jiangdong, the people in the six counties of Jiangdong will be exempted from paying taxes for one year, and taxes will be reduced by half within three years. Under the leadership, it has been weather-beaten, so it is natural to take care of it."

Sun Fu was overjoyed: "Thank you, Prime Minister!"

Tax reduction and exemption can stabilize Jiangdong's people and reduce the resistance of the people to Cao Jun. Even if Sun Fu didn't say anything, Cao Cao would do it.

Sun Fu invited: "The gentry in Xia and the county have already prepared a banquet in the city. They have also prepared pigs, sheep and wine to treat the king, please invite the prime minister to come to the city for a banquet."

Cao Cao smiled and nodded: "Well, Sun Junshou or Yuzhang Junshou, let's enter together."

"Thank you, Prime Minister."

Being able to keep Yuzhang County guard, Sun Fu was naturally more grateful to Cao Cao and led Cao Cao into the city.

When Sun Fu wanted to defect to Cao Cao, the gentry in the city naturally rushed to court Cao Cao and prepared a banquet. But Cao Cao was smiling, and he was always there.

Three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

Cao Cao's face was red and he smiled and sent away the county officials and many nobles. His complexion quickly returned to normal, and there was no drunken appearance.

"Where is Zhongde?"

"In the end, I will go to Mr. Zhong De."

Dianwei walked out, and Cheng Yu walked in after a short while.

"I don't know what the prime minister has to do with me?" Cheng Yu arched his hands.

"Zhong De, did you say the time has come?" Cao Cao asked.

Cheng Yu smiled and said: "Sun Ce was originally a quick battle to ping Jiangdong, and the Jiangdong clans were not convinced. Otherwise, how could Sun Ce be assassinated?"

"From the view of his subordinates, the Prime Minister can now send troops to Wu County and join General Xiahou to sweep Jiangdong. As long as he can break Wu County and defeat Zhou Yu's main force, the Jiangdong gentry will surely resign and surrender to our army." Yuxiong has a way of making bamboo.
