The big men who were making trouble became even more troublesome.
Ever since they learned about the heavenly secret in front of Hulao Pass, various princes have been taking action since returning home.
After Gongsun Zan returned home, he went out to sweep Xianbei, and Baima Yi came from Yang Wei's territory.
In the original work, Han Fu foolishly handed over Jizhou, and was finally frightened to death. Han Fu directly fought with Yuan Shao.
Even though Yuan Shao said that he was just passing by and was following the instructions of the Immortal Chief to wipe out the barbarians, Han Fu was still shaking his head and not listening, and was chanting sutras like a bastard. I don't listen to anything, I just want to fight you to the death.
Yuan Shao was also helpless and could only rush to Bingzhou through Jizhou as quickly as possible while struggling with Han Fu.
Yuan Shu was much more relaxed here. Just as Li Yunze thought, after returning to Nanyang, he appointed Sun Jian as a general and crossed the river to attack the heroes east of the Yangtze River.
At this time, the warlords in Jiangdong are separatist, and they are all useless seeds, such as Liu Yao, Xu Gongyan, Baihu and others. They cannot be called heroes, but they are just ugly in Jiangdong.
Sun Jian, known as the fierce tiger, crossed the river and was really killing everyone.
As for Yuan Shu himself, he was naturally sitting in Nanyang drinking honey water and dreaming of immortality and eternal wealth.
Li Yunze also specially sent someone to give him a bottle of vitamin tablets, saying that it was an advance payment. Anyway, as long as he didn't die, he would live forever.
From Cao Cao's place, we drove directly to Yingchuan.
It's just that he has a lot of eyes and secretly sent people over in advance to inform several companies.
But except for the Xun family who were smarter and ran away immediately after getting the news, the Chen, Zhong and other families didn't care much and even gathered the villagers and serfs to prepare for a fight with Cao Cao.
Again, the communication capabilities of this era are too primitive.
A major event occurred in Hulao Pass that can be said to have affected the situation, but most people in the world are unaware of it.
Here in Yingchuan, we only received rumors, which cannot be compared with those who directly witnessed the miracle.
Cao Cao didn't want to offend a noble family, because his own family could be considered a middle-class family, so he naturally knew that the big man at this time was not so much the emperor's big man, but the big man of the noble family.
If Zhuhu hadn't gone south later and slaughtered too many people, the great Han might have embarked on the path of dividing the hierarchy into his bones.
In that case, you will become an enhanced version of Third Brother, just waiting for outsiders to become conquerors one after another.
Because there is no way to gather strength, they only care about the interests of the family. Even if they kneel down to take the lead for this, it doesn't matter. After all, generations have been prosperous and wealthy, so kneeling down doesn't matter, and the knees will not be injured because of it.
Then Li Dian reminded him that if he failed to work hard, Li Xianchang might not be able to survive.
When that Li Xianchang was really ruthless, he would show no mercy at all.
Recalling the sergeants of the Yuan family who were killed by the steel machine beasts, Cao Cao no longer hesitated and went on a killing spree in Yingchuan.
Then...it didn't come down!
Cao Cao only had more than 3,000 people, and they were basically all local peasants, that is, militiamen.
None of the major families in Yingchuan owned thousands of hectares of fertile land and had more than ten thousand serfs under their command.
With the sons of the clan as the core, the serfs were equipped with weapons, armor, etc., the number of which was even greater than that of Cao Cao.
Cao Cao had no choice but to send Le Jin as an envoy and hurried to Luoyang City to ask Li Yunze for help.
‘Chang Immortal, please use some magical powers~~~’
At this time, Li Yunze was receiving guests.
The people who came to visit were a pair of uncles and nephews, and the person who introduced them was Zhijinwu Hu Muban.
This uncle and nephew are not famous now, but they are extremely famous in history books.
His uncle's name is Xun Yu, and his nephew's name is Xun You.
Xun Yu in the novel is good at ingenious schemes, but in fact what he is best at is handling official affairs and arranging logistics.
Xun You in the novel is good at logistics and official affairs, but in fact he is one of Cao Cao's most important plotters.
The Xun family, who received the news in advance, did not stay in Yingchuan to fight with Cao Cao, but chose to run away first. After settling down, they arranged for their uncle and nephew to find Li Yunze.
This family is almost all smart people, and they know very well that they are not facing Cao Cao's thousands of miscellaneous soldiers, but the immortal leader behind Cao Cao.
Cao Cao's thousands of people are nothing, but this Li Xianchang in front of him is the real fatal existence.
"The Xun clan of Yingchuan has met the imperial master."
Xun Yu took Xun You to salute, his attitude was very respectful.
"Are you Xun Yu or Xun You?"
Facing the inquiry, Xun Yu smiled slightly and said, "In order to let the Imperial Master know, I am Xun Yu, whose courtesy name is Wenruo. This is my nephew You, whose courtesy name is Gongda."
"Um."
Li Yunze looked at the two of them, nodded and said, "What do you want from me?"
Xun Yu, who was kneeling on the ground, bowed respectfully and said, "May I ask the Imperial Preceptor why we want to attack and destroy the Yingchuan families? We have never offended the Imperial Preceptor, nor have we colluded with the barbarians, nor have we ever harmed the common people of the Han Dynasty."
"snort."
Li Yunze sneered, "Where did the thousands of serfs in your family come from?"
When asked this question, the Xun family uncle and nephew were a little stunned.
Xun You wanted to defend himself, saying something like, "The world is in chaos, and my family saved their lives by gathering the refugees and giving them food and water." However, Xun Yu stopped him.
The reason is very simple. Xun Yu knows very well that Li Xianchang in front of him doesn't care about these rhetoric at all. He is very aware of the methods and nature of the powerful families and local power.
Taking a deep breath, Xun Yu glanced at Zhi Jin Wu Hu Mu Ban who was sitting next to him, and saluted again and said, "May I ask the Imperial Master, how can I forgive Xun?"
Not only did he get the news from Cao Cao, the Xun family also had spies in the court.
Their family learned about what happened in front of Hulao Pass very early.
Many people thought it was nonsense or exaggerated. But Xun Yu believed that what happened before Hulao Pass was true.
That means that the Li Immortal in front of him is irresistible.
Since you can't resist, you can only surrender.
The Chen, Zhong and other clans of Yingchuan will end up fighting desperately.
Although they seem to be blocking Cao Cao now, when Li Xianchang takes action, they will inevitably die.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Li Yunze tapped his fingers lightly on the desk in front of him. Before he could speak, Zhao Yun came in and reported, "My lord, I have the name of Cao Cao's envoy."
Those who wish to enter please come and seek an audience."
"Um?"
Li Yunze raised his eyebrows and said, "Let him in."
Le, who was covered in dust, entered the room. When he saw Li Yunze, he bowed and said, "Master, my master is having trouble suppressing the bandits in Yingchuan. Please help me."
When he said this, Uncle and Nephew Xunyu's brows jumped.
Yingchuan is a place of culture and culture, so why has it become a place to suppress thieves?
What an insult to gentlemen!
Li Yunze stretched out his hand to indicate, "Sit down and talk first."
After Le Jin sat down, Li Yunze asked, "Tell me, how did you win the battle?"
"This." Le Jin hesitated.
After all, losing a battle is a disgraceful thing. If you face Li Yunze directly, you can just say it. It's not a big deal.
But now it is obvious that there are outsiders present, and if I say anything, I am afraid it will damage the Lord's face.
"Many of the thieves in Yingchuan built forts with deep trenches and thick walls that were difficult to shake."
"Yes." Li Yunze nodded and said, "I have a thunderbolt here. As soon as the car goes down, it will be Wubao. The wall of Luoyang City will also collapse, which can be used by Meng De."
"The army has no food and no pay, and the morale of the sergeants is low."
Cao Cao's previous supply of food and grass came from Yuan Shao's generous supply, but now Yuan Shao wants to take off Cao Cao's head, let alone supply food and wages.
I thought I could have a good time in Yingchuan. After all, these wealthy families have countless amounts of food, grass, money and silk.
However, if the battle is defeated, of course there will be nothing.
"What's so difficult about this?"
Li Yunze laughed when he heard this, "You can have as much food, grass, money, and silk as you want."
After saying this, Le Jin breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as there is food and salary, morale will rise immediately, and a large number of people can be recruited.
After a pause, he continued, "If the army is not well equipped, it will be difficult to withstand the thieves."
This made Li Yunze confused, "You can't even defeat the minions of aristocratic families?"
Le Jin hurriedly shouted, "So that the Imperial Master will know that almost all of the thieves are wearing armor, and many even have iron armor on their bodies. They have all kinds of swords, guns, bows and crossbows, all of which are used by the military. My lord does not have any leather armor."
many..."
Before Cao Cao became successful, his strength was really poor.
He had to wait until he occupied the wealthy Yanzhou and took over the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans before he began to truly gain strength.
Li Yunze looked at Uncle and Nephew Xun Yu with a half-smile, "Didn't you say that the aristocratic families are all civilized? Where did these military utensils come from?"
The Han Dynasty had no control over swords, guns, bows and arrows, so if you wanted to use them, just use them.
However, armor, crossbows and other items belong to the army, and private possession is a serious crime of treason.
For the Yingchuan family to be able to equip their clansmen with these things is already committing the crime of annihilating the family.
Those Xun You forcibly defended themselves, "Nowadays, the world is in chaos, and the rebels and bandits are wreaking havoc. It is normal for us to prepare some weapons to protect the safety of our family and home."
The explanation is quite reasonable, and it belongs to the kind of sophistry that ‘put aside the facts’.
Since the facts have been put aside, it’s useless to argue.
Li Yunze smiled and said nothing, and turned his eyes to Le Jin, "Don't panic, don't be busy. Go have some food and wine, and rest for a night. Come with me to Yingchuan tomorrow. I want the world to see clearly that Cao Mengde is working for someone, and someone is
I will never treat him badly."
After Du Lejin was taken down by Jia Xu to rest, Li Yunze said to Uncle and Nephew Xun Yu, "We will set off early tomorrow morning. You guys come with me."
On the morning of the second day, outside Luoyang City.
Lu Bu personally led two thousand Bingzhou soldiers to protect Li Yunze and Le Jin, while Uncle Xunyu and his nephew set off south to Yingchuan County.
On the way, Xun You asked his uncle in confusion, "Didn't you say you wanted to send money, food, ordnance to Cao Cao? Why didn't you see anything?"
Xun Yu was also puzzled by this. Although Cao Cao only had a few thousand men, if he wanted to provide supplies for him, it would take at least a hundred carts to transport them.
However, looking around, apart from the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry on horseback, there was only the carriage riding by their uncle and nephew.
"this..."
Even someone as smart as Xun Yu could not figure out where all the military equipment was hidden.
If you set off later, there is no need at all.
If you can't figure it out, then don't think about it.
Xun Yu shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Let's take a look at what extraordinary means this imperial master has. Whether our Yingchuan Xun family can continue to survive depends on this incident."
