Chapter 118 A new journey, a new battlefield
The Imperial College starts eleven years ago.
Cao Cao's grades failed to be admitted to the Imperial College Department.
As it turns out, the four taels of gold in the primary school each semester, totaling tuition fees of 48 taels of gold did not teach Cao Cao to be a qualified primary school graduate.
Cao Song was so anxious that he was inviting food and gifts almost every day, begging for old friends...
At that time, Zheng Lin, who was then the head of the Imperial College, had already stepped down, and the right to select candidates was handed over to the newly appointed Imperial College Chief Gao Qiao Xuan.
There were only three candidates for the thirty-three people. Cao Song spent tens of thousands of dollars and could only put Cao Cao in the candidate.
Of course, at that time, Cao Cao's name was held down by the previous chief Zheng Lin, and he decided not to agree to his entry into the Imperial College.
Instead, Qiao Xuan said in a pleading tone: "Even if I, Qiao, do personal gains and frauds!"
Zheng Lin asked helplessly: "Why do you value this ignorant and ignorant slutty child? Is it because he saved He Boqiu in the disaster of the Party and the Criminal?"
He Boqiuo was the name of He Yong, and was a famous scholar of this era. He was framed by eunuchs for the second party and corruption disaster.
Seeing that he was about to be captured in the Imperial Academy, it was Cao Cao who was ignorant at that time who blocked him tightly and used his whole body to capture He Yong's yamen runners, which helped He Yong escape to Runan to avoid disaster.
All the good students of the Imperial Academy did not do this. Instead, Cao Cao, the last place, stepped forward and even was imprisoned. If his father Cao Song had not served as the Sili School Captain at that time and was in charge of arresting party members, he would have been imprisoned for several years.
It is because of this incident that Cao Cao has a special status in the minds of the party members, and he feels that although he is ignorant, he has a righteous heart, which is rare.
"Hahaha..." Qiao Xuan smiled at that time. "Cao Cao's conscience and justice should be rewarded."
Zheng Lin smiled helplessly. "You are the chief of the Taixue, you have the final say. But not only did you choose a ignorant Taixue student for the Taixue, you may also choose an unremarkable disciple for yourself!"
Hahaha… Qiao Xuan shrugged. “Maybe it is, but at least one thing is that Cao Cao and I, Qiao Xuan, are in common…”
Having said this, Qiao Xuan paused. "If I were there, I would have taken action to save He Boqiu!"
Zheng Lin shook his head... "I'm afraid, Master Qiao? When you were in the Imperial College, your grades were quite bad, right?"
Qiao Xuan hurriedly closed the doors and windows and whispered: "Now there are not many people who know about this!"
Eleven years ago, when Cao Cao was selected into the Imperial Academy, Qiao Xuan and Zheng Lin had a conversation and dispute. Cai Yong, who was still Qiao Xuan's follower, saw it all. For this reason, he spared no effort in teaching Cao Cao.
Now, looking back on the past.
Qiao Xuan and Cai Yong smiled at each other. They were both curious. The problematic boy in the past caused countless disputes in the Imperial Academy. Now his son Cao Shu is going to enter the Imperial Academy. What kind of situation will this be like?
At least, let alone anything else... Cao Shuo, like Cao Cao, had already become famous before entering the Imperial College Department...
But one is a good reputation.
One is a bad reputation!

...
The lake surrounding Yongqiu is about 30 meters long. The weather during the Little Ice Age is especially cold, and even the lake surface is still faintly frozen.
Following Cao Shu, Cao Ang, Cao De and Liu Bian got off the carriage and walked forward, standing on Yongqiu in the middle of the water, a simple but extremely elegant Han Dynasty building complex appeared before his eyes.
The corridor columns, green tiles and white walls are very wide and simple. The large-angle slope-shaped eaves unique to the Han Dynasty are like a large umbrella, covering the entire school.
There are hundreds of houses on the isolated island, as well as kitchens, equipment rooms, squares, libraries, pavilions, etc. There is only a single-plank bridge in the middle, allowing teachers and students of the Taixue to pass through.
In front of the single-plank bridge, Cao Ang waved his hand and went back to the primary school department. As a primary school student, he is not qualified to walk through the single-plank bridge.
Liu Bian felt relaxed and happy. He didn't expect that he, the little devil, would come to Luoyang Taixue to make trouble one day. Oh no... it's a study, it's very dreamy, it's fun to think about it. If a demon sect was established here, he would be the devil king, and Cao Shu would be the devil head, that would be interesting.
Next to the single-plank bridge, there is a huge rock that has stood for nearly two hundred years. It is five meters high, four meters wide and two meters thick. It is engraved with eight Qin small seal scripts - "The Emperor's Assistant, the Country's Peak."
Cao Shuo, who studied this history, knew that this Taixue stone carving is famous all over the world, and now it is probably four hundred years old. It was moved from Chang'an to Luoyang during the Guangwu period and placed it at the entrance of the Taixue.
The font is written by great calligraphers during the reign of Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang, with pure gold coloring. Whether it is sunny or rainy, these eight golden big characters shine brightly!
Cao Shu looked up at the stone, his heart was throbbing, thinking in his heart, his father Cao Cao was brainwashed by these eight big words, right?
It’s not a big fault for my father Cao Cao, no matter who it is? Whenever I step into the gate of this Imperial College, I will see the golden eight big characters "The Emperor's Assistant, the Country's Peak". I will see them every day after four years of Taishi's career. Even if I have a poor memory, I am afraid that these eight big characters will be engraved into my mind, bone marrow, and life?
Cao Shu and Liu Bian were calm and didn't feel anything. Instead, Cao De seemed to have countless weight on his shoulders, and it seemed that all the responsibilities were suppressed. This was a force that was invisible to instruct every student of the Han Dynasty to move forward with his head held high.
Cao Shu suddenly remembered Cao Cao...
If he hadn't been to go to the military camp to report today, he would have sent himself to school, right?
Thinking of this, Cao Shu subconsciously turned around and looked into the distance...
School is now on his way, but for his father Cao Cao, isn’t it a new school in the military camp?
In the military camp and battlefield, my father still needs to learn a lot. Huangfu Song is a famous teacher and a strict teacher. I believe his father Cao Cao has to suffer some hardship under his command.
Thinking of this, Cao Shu's eyes turned, but instead felt a little worried about his father Cao Cao. "Dad, you have to hold on!"
Yes! You must endure it. Only by going to the real battlefield and seeing real cruelty can the benevolence in my father's heart completely disappear?
Cao Mengde, the first butcher knife in the Three Kingdoms, set sail from now on!
...
...
Outside the outskirts of Luoyang, the northern army camp of Hanting.
The cavalry commander Cao Cao stood majestic in the camp, holding the Qingxuan sword in his hand, and together with the other officials, patiently waiting for their general Huangfu Song.
In the big tent, Cao Cao's official title is not low.
The cavalry commander, with a salary of two thousand stones, was in charge of the Yulin cavalry and had no fixed number. His identity was almost the same as the nine ministers, and he was on par with the seventy-two doctors.
Before Huangfu Song arrived, the other officers were quite polite to Cao Cao... No one dared to offend this young cavalry general!
Pan Feng is also among them. He is a talent specially introduced by Cao Shuo to Lu Zhi.
Lu Zhi also personally verified that Pan Feng's strength was very satisfied with him, whether it was a bow and horse or a battle axe, and immediately recommended him to Huangfu Song as the deputy general of the army!
Of course, Pan Feng also brought more than 500 brothers, some of which were bought by Cao Shu from human traffickers in Dongcheng City, and some of which were Pan Feng and Liu Sandao's brothers. Under Cao Shu's mobilization, they all wanted to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions!
The sentence Cao Shu mentioned, "Soldiers who don't want to be generals are not good soldiers! They even ignited Pan Feng's fighting spirit!"
In addition, Cao Shu specially explained that he should not help his father Cao Cao unless he had no choice but to save his life!
...
"tread"
The low and heavy steps sounded especially.
Huangfu Song frowned and stepped into the military camp. The first thing he said was to ask.
"Who have you all read military books?"
The reason for asking this is because Huangfu Song knew very well that most of the generals of the Hanting Northern Army were selected from the children of bureaucrats. Not many were talented and capable, so he wanted to touch the bottom.
Suddenly, the entire military camp became silent. Pan Feng was confident, but he was a good at learning military books. He was an amateur. Even if the noble children of other than him had read some, they would not dare to say that, for fear of being made difficult by General Huangfu.
But at this moment.
"I've seen it."
A crisp voice came out, but Cao Cao could have anyone else.
But seeing him take a step, "I have read at least eight military books and have annotated "The Art of War" for Sun Tzu. The one that inspired me the most was the "Thirty-Six Strategies"!"
