We agreed that you, a weak strategist, would fight against three heroes by yourself?
Chapter 76: Are you willing to lead an army alone?
After Cao Cao finished speaking, the leader first bowed his hands towards the city wall, and then rode his horse towards the back of the queue.
Not long after, a familiar figure jumped out of the carriage behind the queue.
"A certain Zhao Yun, please see Mr. Xi!"
On top of the city wall, the moment he saw Zhao Yun appear, Xi Yu's face was obviously a little surprised.
Zhao Yun is here?
Didn't he just put Zhao Yun back into Liu Bei's camp last time?
How could the other party appear outside Juancheng at this time, and there are hundreds of Xiangyong there.
There were about a hundred or ten people riding horses under the city at a glance, and in this situation, these people were obviously headed by Zhao Yun.
Then Zhao Yun asked for a meeting.
Cao Cao next to him also had a puzzled look on his face. He also remembered that Xi Yu had just let him go not long ago, so why did he come over again at this time?
However, seeing Zhao Yun appear at this moment, Xi Yu was in a good mood.
"Zilong, wait a moment, I'm coming!"
After glancing at Cao Cao, Xi Yu leaned out from the city wall and shouted to Zhao Yun, then led Dian Wei down the city wall.
Not long after, Xi Yu led Zhao Yun and his party into the Juancheng gate.
"Yun, I've seen you sir!"
Seeing Xi Yu again, Zhao Yun felt quite emotional. He had come all the way, claiming the name of Xi Yu, and there was no obstacle in the entire Yanzhou.
Compared to when I returned to Xiapi and was shouted at by Zhang Fei.
There is a world of difference between the two.
This treatment made his heart feel warm.
Xi Yu stretched out his hand to support Zhao Yun, who was bowing to him. Although he was a little surprised, he couldn't help but ask with concern.
"Zilong, didn't you just return to camp last time? What is this now?"
"Sir, it's a long story!"
Immediately, Zhao Yun quickly told the story of his return to Liu Bei's camp, and then said that he had returned to his hometown.
"I never thought that Liu Xuande would be so unwise!"
After hearing Zhao Yun's story, Cao Cao on the side was also a little emotional. A strong general like Zhao Yun was suspected after returning.
It really surprised him that Liu Bei could do such a thing.
Zhao Yun explained that it was not because Liu Bei was suspicious, but Liu, Guan, and Zhang were three brothers after all. If they did some things alone, they should carry them together.
Cao Cao was a little excited. Looking at Zhao Yun's posture, it was obvious that the other party was rushing to join him.
Together with a group of local braves, this is a great joy!
Zhao Yun is also a powerful general no less than Dian Wei!
Xi Yu listened carefully and glanced at the carriage behind Zhao Yun.
"Zilong, could it be your brother in the car?"
"That's right!"
Upon hearing Xi Yu's question, Zhao Yun nodded quickly and then looked quite grateful.
"If it hadn't been for my husband's words in the previous episode, Yun would have almost lost his brother!"
"After Zi Yun returned to Changshan, he learned that his brother was in critical condition. Previously, Mr. Yun said that he could save Brother Yun. Yun did not dare to delay, so he brought Xiang Yong to visit Mr.!"
Zhao Yun didn't say anything about surrendering, but Xi Yu didn't ask any questions.
He would not repay a favor. Since he had promised Zhao Yun before that he could come to him, and now that the other party came to him, he would naturally not refuse.
Knowing that the other party's brother was seriously ill, Xi Yu naturally did not delay at all.
"Take your brother to my house!"
After saying something to Zhao Yun, Xi Yu turned to look at Dian Wei: "Awei, help settle the Xiang Yong brought by Brother Zilong!"
After he finished speaking, Xi Yu looked at Cao Cao again.
The latter nodded: "Let's go ahead, I'm planning to take Meng Zhuo back!"
…
After everyone separated, Xi Yu quickly took Zhao Yun and his brother back to the Xi family's residence.
After vacating a house, Xi Yu helped Zhao Yun settle his brother down, and after a casual inspection, he understood.
Zhao Yun's brother had indeed contracted pneumonia, and his current situation seemed to be extremely serious.
Seeing the worried look on Zhao Yun's face, Xi Yu reached out and gently patted the other person on the shoulder.
"Don't worry, I already know your brother's illness and I have a sense of discretion!"
Now that it is confirmed to be pneumonia, all we need to do is find a way to extract penicillin.
Brother Zhao Yun's illness seems serious at the moment, but it is not fatal. It is not a problem to survive for a while.
After thinking about it, Xi Yu gave Zhao Yun instructions, and hurriedly planned to extract penicillin himself.
In this era, there is no such thing as chemical synthesis. If you want to extract usable penicillin, you can only use local methods.
It’s not very difficult. You just need to find rotten fruits and vegetables and process them to get penicillin.
After figuring it out, Xi Yu asked people to collect rotten fruits and vegetables.
Although it was winter, it was not difficult for Xi Yu to collect things throughout Juancheng with great fanfare.
In less than two days, Xi Yu collected a lot of rotten fruits and vegetables.
Naturally, this situation is somewhat confusing to outsiders.
Although Zhao Yun was a little confused, Xi Yu had already promised, and he trusted him very much.
It was actually his brother's illness. He had taken him to see many doctors, and now he didn't have much else to do.
"What does Fengyi do with these rotten fruits and vegetables?"
When Xi Yu was collecting rotten things throughout Juancheng, Cao Cao naturally got wind of it, and many of them were obtained with his help.
Cao Cao was naturally curious about what Xi Yu was doing.
After all, the other party has done many shocking things before.
Cao Cao was minding his own business and came to watch with his men, but Xi Yu ignored him.
Although the technology of the times is somewhat backward, with a large amount of manpower, many things can be supplemented.
There were quite a few moldy fruits and vegetables. After carefully selecting them, Xi Yu selected the ones with penicillin.
After some treatment, he got penicillin that was barely usable.
"Sir, this is the hose and needle you want to make."
After receiving the simple needles and hoses prepared by Ma San and others, for Xi Yu, all the preparations were almost done.
Outside the actor's house, in the courtyard at that time, Cao Cao and other people gathered outside the courtyard, and Zhao Yun was also among them.
"Sir, can these things really save my brother?"
Over the past few days, Zhao Yun was a little confused by Xi Yu's actions, and naturally Cao Cao and others were also confused.
"If you can't explain it in one or two sentences, just watch it!"
Xiyu didn't have much explanation.
He has already prepared physiological saline and water bags. He only needs to inject a small amount of penicillin into the patient. It is expected that the patient's pneumonia will be relieved.
Xi Yu knew that penicillin was a miracle drug for this era.
After some processing, Xi Yu successfully injected penicillin into the patient's body.
With the effect of penicillin, the patient's face, which was still coughing from time to time, has significantly softened.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Yun couldn't help but feel a little excited.
Immediately afterwards, he bowed down to Xi Yu in front of everyone.
"Yun thanked you for your kindness in saving your brother, but I cannot repay this kindness. In the future, Yun Yuan will lead your horse and ride on it for you!"
Before looking for Xi Yu, Zhao Yun discussed it with his brother.
Regardless of whether Xi Yu can save his brother, Zhao Yun plans to join Xi Yu.
The experience with Liu Bei really chilled Zhao Yun, and after hearing Zhao Yun's thoughts, his brother also strongly agreed with Zhao Yun's choice.
Now that he is watching his brother's recovery, Zhao Yun naturally joins Xi Yu without hesitation.
This move immediately made Cao Cao present a little dumbfounded.
After Zhao Yun arrived in Juancheng, he felt a little hot in his heart.
He was still thinking of finding an opportunity to recruit Zhao Yun!
Who would have thought that before he could take action, Zhao Yun would take the initiative to surrender to Xi Yu.
What's this?
The current situation made Cao Cao a little helpless and a little envious.
He was very clear about Zhao Yun's strength. He was a strong general who was not weaker than Dian Wei, and was even much stronger than the generals under him.
However, since the other party surrendered to Xi Yu, Cao Cao had no choice.
…
Late December, winter solstice!
Before the New Year's Eve, Cao Cao held the last meeting of the year in the Juancheng Yamen Office.
In the final analysis, it is just a matter of summarizing the rewards for the Battle of Xuzhou years ago.
Because of this news, the Xiahou brothers and Cao Ren, who were originally stationed in Xuzhou, all left their things to their subordinates and returned to Yanzhou alone.
Within the government office.
After everyone sat down separately, Xi Yu also sat among them.
"Brother, are you willing to come back?"
Looking at Xi Zhicai on the side, Xi Yu felt a little helpless. After returning from Xuzhou, Xi Zhicai stayed in Juancheng for a few days before running away on his own initiative.
Xi Yu naturally knew where the other party had gone.
It was nothing more than running to Yingchuan to find Guo Jia and the two of them died drunkenly.
"Take a break for a few days. Nothing major happened recently, right?"
Xi Zhicai looked unconcerned, and then he looked at Xi Yu again as if he thought of something.
"I heard that Zhao Yun surrendered to you?" Xi Zhicai asked lightly.
"Well, Zilong did join me some time ago!"
Xi Yu nodded, the whole Juancheng knew about this matter, and Xi Zhicai's knowledge did not surprise him at all.
Hearing this, Xi Zhi frowned.
It's not a bad thing for Zhao Yun to join Xi Yu, but some things still need to be measured.
Now he is under Cao Cao's command. Although Xi Yu appears to be the Taicang Order of the Han Dynasty, in fact he is still a counselor under Cao Cao.
It would not be a good thing if it was taken advantage of by someone with intentions.
However, Xi Zhicai is not worried about this kind of thing.
In this world today, there are open guns and hidden arrows, and there are very few people who can hurt Xi Yu.
Since none of his brothers cared about it, he naturally felt very at ease.
The two brothers exchanged a few words, and Cao Cao, who was at the head of the group, had already begun to summarize the Battle of Xuzhou.
"I have told the imperial court a few days ago that everyone, the first merit of this battle should be righteousness!"
When Cao Cao spoke, everyone had no objection to his words. ,
When the grain road was destroyed, if Xi Yu had not personally improved the transport vehicles and transported grain and grass to the front line, the entire battle in Xuzhou would not have been so smooth.
What's more, Xi Yu's contribution to the subsequent battles between generals was even more obvious.
Everyone was meaningless, so Cao Cao turned his attention to Xi Yu.
"Fengyi, with your bravery, are you willing to lead an army alone?"
Now that Zhao Yun had just surrendered to Xi Yu, Cao Cao thought of Xi Yu's bravery on the battlefield, and the urge to let Xi Yu lead an army arose in his heart.
As soon as Cao Cao finished speaking, all the generals in the Cao camp looked at Xi Yu with envy.
Being able to lead an army alone is no small matter. This is equivalent to Cao Cao directly delegating power!
Even for the generals of the Cao family, it is not that easy for them to lead an army alone.
Except for Cao Ren and Xia Houyuan who can temporarily lead the army, the rest of the Cao family are still waiting in line!
As for Yu Jin, Li Qian and others, they are just some lieutenants under Cao Cao's account now!
Everyone looked at Xi Yu with envy, but the latter's face turned dark.
What leads the way?
He said that he was just a counselor!
"Lord, please forgive Yu for not being able to accept it!"
Xi Yu handed over his hand and refused sternly. Then he seemed to feel that the refusal was too direct, so he continued to speak.
"My lord, I will still be responsible for spring plowing in the spring after the new year. Since my lord said that I have done a good job in transporting grain, you might as well hand over the baggage camp to me!"
Xi Yu retreated to the next best thing. He did not say that he wanted to lead the army alone, but continued the spring plowing and asked for the supply camp alone.
After hearing this, everyone in the hall became somewhat understanding.
What's so good about the baggage camp?
It has no other use than transporting food, grass, ordnance. Xi Yu made it clear that he didn't want to be a military commander.
Knowing Xi Yu's character, everyone in the lobby didn't say anything, and Cao Cao, the leader, was also a little stunned.
However, since Xi Yu can give in, it can be considered a good thing.
"Fengyi, you..."
"That's all, let's go to the heavy supply camp!"
Cao Cao nodded helplessly. He wanted to let the other party lead troops to fight, but unexpectedly the other party had already told him about spring plowing.
And this matter is indeed extremely important.
Since Xi Yu wants to carry out heavy supplies, then give it to the other party!
After Xi Yu's matter was resolved, Cao Cao then began to reward Cao Ren.
Of course, the imperial reward has not yet been issued, and Cao Cao can't promise any official position on the surface, but the reward he deserves is no less.
After the discussion was over, everyone was in a good mood.
At this time, Xi Yu had arrived at the supply camp, and after thinking about it, he still asked Cao Cao.
"My lord, can I choose the soldiers of the transport camp myself?"
Although the supply camp is not a combat unit, who says that the supply camp cannot be fought?
Xi Yu is not the kind of person who sticks to rules. Now that he is in charge of the supply camp, he doesn't want to have a group of old, weak, sick and disabled subordinates under him.
"Oh, my soldiers and horses under Cao Ying are allowed to be selected by Fengyi to join the camp, and no one is allowed to hinder them!"
After hearing Xi Yu's request, Cao Cao agreed without hesitation.
It's just a baggage camp, with only 3,000 people in full force.
It's okay to let Xiyu choose.
Hearing this, Xi Yu nodded immediately.
After the discussion, Xi Yu immediately went to the camp to start selecting soldiers.
The whole process went very smoothly. I heard that Mr. Xi came to select the soldiers, and the soldiers in Cao's camp were very enthusiastic.
In the end, Xi Yu successfully selected three thousand Qingzhou soldiers.
These people were all the Yellow Turban soldiers who had pacified Yanzhou before. After all, they were the soldiers who could survive in this troubled world. They were all extremely brave soldiers.
In the original history, Cao Cao was the only one who was convinced by these Qingzhou soldiers, but when Yanzhou was pacified before, Xi Yu's presence was extremely conspicuous.
When riding alone to rescue Cao Cao, some Qingzhou soldiers remembered Xi Yu's figure.
Not to mention the series of events that followed.
Today, the entire Qingzhou soldiers are far more convinced of Xi Yu than Cao Cao.
To be honest, these people can follow Cao Cao now only because of Xi Yu's existence.
Because of Yanzhou's new policies, spring plowing and a series of benefits that benefit the people, Xi Yu's influence in Yanzhou is stronger than Cao Cao.
Now in the entire Cao Ying, not only the original Yellow Turban soldiers, but also the entire Cao Ying soldiers were extremely convinced of Xi Yu.
Who doesn't want to be a soldier under a fierce general? They don't care about the supply camp, they just know how to follow Xi Yu.
Of course, Zhao Yun and the hundred warriors he brought with him were also assigned to the supply camp by Xi Yu. Cao Cao had no objection to this.
After selecting the soldiers, Xi Yu handed them over to Zhao Yun and did not stay any longer.
There are only a few days left before the New Year, and even the training in the military camp has relaxed a lot.
"Sir, are you too fond of one?"
Xi Yu and Dian Wei had just left the military camp when Dian Wei beside him couldn't help but shout.
In his opinion, he wanted to follow Xi Yu earlier than Zhao Yun!
Now, since Xi Yu has taken charge of the baggage camp, he is not arranged to lead the soldiers. On the contrary, Zhao Yun is asked to lead the soldiers.
This really made Dian Wei a little bit annoyed, and Dian Wei's temperament was such that he would speak out directly if he had anything to say.
Hearing this, Xi Yu turned his head and glanced at the other party.
"Awei, can you train soldiers?"
"No!" Dian Wei responded casually.
"Zilonghui!"
Xi Yu laughed. The reason why he arranged for Zhao Yun and not Dian Wei was mainly because the two were not the same type of generals.
Although Zhao Yun was mostly a bodyguard in history books, Zhao Yun was still known as a victorious general.
Historically, the other party also had the experience of leading troops in combat under Liu Bei.
As for Dian Wei, although he is brave, he is really just a bodyguard-type military commander.
Just like that, Boss Cao also folded the other party in Wancheng.
Of course, if Dian Wei had not died, no one knew how it would be recorded in subsequent history books.
But if you think about it carefully, he is probably just a stronger Xu Chu!
"It's not bad for me to lead troops to kill the enemy!" Dian Wei curled his lips.
Xi Yu sighed: "Zilong has just taken action, and his brother's condition has improved in recent days. You and I can see that Zilong is eager to repay his kindness."
"This arrangement for him to train soldiers can also calm his mind. Why are you jealous?"
"If we really have a chance to fight, can I forget you?"
He looked at Dian Wei helplessly, and Xi Yu explained to him angrily.
After hearing this, Dian Wei seemed to understand.
