Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 3104 Xudu situation

The aristocratic family had to endure a lot of exploitation under Lu Bu's rule, but it would be better to let the family be destroyed by their hands. This was the case for the aristocratic family in Yizhou at the beginning, which was why Liu Bei suffered a disastrous defeat on the Yizhou battlefield.

The aristocratic family is the least easy to control, Cao Cao knows this deeply. Of course, if the aristocratic family has the support, it is relatively simple to achieve rapid development in the territory.

The unique situation of the aristocratic family determines that it is difficult for them to make concessions in the face of interests. For the sake of interests, they will do whatever it takes.

This was the reason why Cao Cao eagerly returned to Xudu City. After the army failed on the battlefield, something unfavorable to Cao Cao happened in Xudu City. How Cao Cao's army would respond to the next war would obviously not be enough simply relying on the troops at hand.

As long as Xu Du can stabilize and have a certain effect against the Jin army's attack, the officials and generals under his rule can see hope. Once people have hope, they will not give up easily. After all, the family does not want to

Become the target of others' exploitation.

The defeat of Cao's army not only lowered the morale of the army, but also suffered a lot of losses in the army's baggage. There are now only more than a hundred crossbow chariots in the battle, the entire Pili army and the bed crossbow army have been annihilated, and only the cavalry remains.

Hundreds of people. At the beginning, Cao Cao had 110,000 soldiers going into battle.

Needless to say, the mentality of the generals at this time was too much. They suffered too much in this battle, mainly because of the strong strength displayed by the Jin army. This deeply affected the generals of the army. They usually thought that

Ao's subordinates behaved so badly after arriving on the battlefield.

After the failure of such an important decisive battle, Cao's army no longer had enough strength to confront the Jin army head-on.

Of course, the soldiers who remained in the army at this time still had confidence in Cao Cao.

Cao Cao has a very high prestige in the army, which is something that other officials of the DPRK cannot match. His firm control of military power makes the army officers and soldiers very obedient to Cao Cao's orders. This is also the most helpless thing for DPRK officials. In troubled times

time, reflecting the importance of military power.

For example, in Xudu City now, the army guarding the palace is controlled by Cao Cao, and the army in the city is controlled by Cao Cao. Even if someone wants to overthrow Cao Cao, it is not an easy task.

The bravery of Cao Cao's army, especially the generals who followed Cao Cao in east and west campaigns, were the main targets for court officials to win over. However, how could the generals who could be promoted by Cao Cao listen to the words of court officials? The most important thing they obeyed was Cao Cao's orders.

Therefore, after taking control of the military, Cao Cao did not have too many worries about the officials of the dynasty. If the officials of the dynasty were disobedient, all he needed was an order from Cao Cao to destroy the official's family.

The forces between the aristocratic families are intertwined, and they even have considerable influence in the army. Cao Cao will not fall out with the aristocratic families until necessary.

News of the decisive battle between Cao Cao's army and the Jin army soon spread to Xudu City. At this time, the officials of the court were most concerned about the battle in Yingchuan and who would win. If Cao Cao won, Cao Cao's army could march straight into Jin's territory.

In the hinterland, the territory that originally belonged to the Han Dynasty was wrested from Lu Bu's hands.

In the previous battles, Cao Cao's army was somewhat inferior to the Jin army. This was what the officials of the court were most worried about. After Cao Cao's defeat, it meant that the family would have to undergo major changes, which was something the family could not tolerate.

There is no doubt that the aristocratic families support Cao Cao's army in this battle against the Jin army. Regardless of whether these aristocratic families support Cao Cao from the bottom of their hearts, they must express their support, otherwise it will arouse the suspicion of other aristocratic families.

The war has attracted the attention of Xudu's aristocratic families, and even the people in the city have learned about the news, but the speed at which the people have learned the news is much slower than that of the aristocratic families.

The people in Xudu were in dire straits due to the war. The people of Xudu gradually realized the disadvantages brought by the war. The first thing to bear the brunt was the increase in the price of rice in the city. The aristocratic family did not let go of this opportunity. After raising the price of rice, the aristocratic family could take the opportunity to occupy more

the benefits of.

Different from the system of the Jin State, the stores secretly controlled by the family would not give officials too much face. Their strong background allowed them to ignore the influence of the officials under Cao Cao's rule. Besides, during the war, the family secretly improved

The price of rice is also a normal thing. As long as the family does not go too far, no officials will usually ask about it.

After the results of the decisive battle between the two sides came out, it caused quite a shock in the city. Cao Jun and Jiangdong Jiangdong Army failed in the battle after joining forces, and the Jin army won the final victory.

This news was difficult for many aristocratic families to accept. They supported Cao Cao so much in the hope that Cao Cao's army could win this battle, because the aristocratic families did not want to lose everything they had, but the result of the battle gave them a huge impact.

Cao Cao has always shown his strong side in front of the family. Many powerful enemy troops fell to Cao Cao. However, against the Jin army, Cao Cao completely failed. The price of the failure was that Xu Du would fall into

The enemy's attack.

This kind of news made the aristocratic families in the city feel uneasy.

The atmosphere in Xudu City was unprecedentedly solemn. Even ordinary people learned about the result of Cao's army's battle against the Jin army. Although they did not know the detailed process of the war, they only needed to know the result, which was enough for the people.

The aristocratic family put in a lot of effort during the confrontation between Cao's army and the Jin army, and even donated a lot of their family's assets, in order to enable Cao's army to win the battle.

But now, the news of Cao Jun's defeat is a heavy blow to the aristocratic families. Many aristocratic families can hardly believe the news. The consequences of Cao Jun's defeat are really too serious.

At this time, the most urgent thing for the family is how to preserve the family's power to the greatest extent in this war.

The shrewd family has already begun secret operations. During the confrontation between Cao Jun and the Jin army, the city was not very stable. The well-informed family even felt something unusual from some changes in the city. As for secretly defecting to Jin.

There must be channels in the country, but these channels are not accessible to ordinary aristocratic families.

Cao's army had a numerical advantage. Although there were occasional casualties when fighting the enemy, the aristocratic families in the city did not feel it clearly. When the news of Cao's army's failure reached the city, many aristocratic families secretly began to prepare.
