Lord of the people online game

"Hush!"

Hua Mulan grabbed the galloping horse, and thousands of cavalry followed her.

The majestic Hulao Pass relies on the Yellow River and mountains to isolate the east and west of Guanxi. There are already flags flying at Hulao Pass, obviously Hulao Pass has been occupied by others.

"Are you too late?"

Hua Mulan stands at the foot of Hulao Pass holding a tree.

Hulao Pass is a powerful pass and was occupied by thousands of people. Even with tens of thousands of cavalry, it could not be captured.

The heavy door of Hulao Pass was pushed open by the soldiers. Cao Cao led a group of civil servants and generals out. Hua Mulan's cavalry subconsciously bent their bows and arrows, intending to kill Cao Cao.

Hua Mulan raised her hand to signal the cavalry to put down their bows and arrows.

After Cao Cao occupied Hulao Pass, he could obviously hold on to Hulao Pass and wait for the arrival of Jiujiu Lao Qin. There was no need to leave the pass.

"Is this person coming from Chu Zimou's general?"

Cao Cao has a dry throat. If he surrenders to Chu Zimou, he will most likely be killed by Chu Zimou, either openly or covertly. The ministers and generals can surrender, but as princes, there is a 50% chance that they will die if they surrender. They may be directly killed by Chu Zimou.

If you seek execution, you may also be put under house arrest or poisoned.

If he defected to Jiujiang Lao Qin, Jiujiu Lao Qin would probably reuse Cao Cao in order to deal with Chu Zimou, just like Liu Bei defected to Liu Biao. If Liu Bei defected to Cao Cao, Cao Cao would deprive him of his military power.

Therefore, choosing to seek refuge with Chu Zimou is actually quite risky.

"Hua Mulan, the general of Mu Pi of Xuzhou."

Hua Mulan looked at the disgraced Cao Cao. It was strange that Cao Cao had been suppressed by Chu Tian for two years and was stranded in Hulao Pass even though he could escape.

"Cao Mengde, the governor of Yanzhou, is willing to surrender to Xuzhou and go to Xiacheng to serve my father. Please be kind to everyone and don't embarrass them."

In order to save his life, Cao Cao did not dare to ask for the post of governor, so he could only live on the grounds of filial piety.

After Cao Cao's death, a group of Yanzhou nobles chose to stay with Cao Cao. Their interests were in Yanzhou and they were unwilling to leave Guandong. In addition, Cao Cao's clan generals always followed Cao Cao, and their interests were tied to Cao Cao.

Cao Chun was unhappy about surrendering to Chu Zimou. His tiger and leopard cavalry were damaged many times. The war between the two sides had lasted for two years and they had developed hatred. But when Cao Cao arrived at Hulao Pass, he decided to stay. He could only stand with Cao Cao.

In the same camp.

"Someone, tie them up! Tie them up tight!"

Hua Mulan heard from her husband that Cao Mengde was full of tricks. In order to prevent him from falling into the trap, he ordered his soldiers to tie up Cao Cao and all his officials and generals.

Cao Cao, Cao Hong, Cao Chun, Xia Houyuan, Xun You, Cheng Yu and other military generals were wrapped into rice dumplings.

"Um?!!"

Dian Wei was as majestic as an iron tower. When he was bound, he glared angrily at the cavalry around him who bound him. The cavalry were shocked by Dian Wei's majesty and could not help but fear.

If Cao Cao had not surrendered on his own initiative, a hundred cavalrymen would not have been able to capture Dian Wei alive who had reached the peak of his military power.

If all the princes were present, they would be surprised that Hua Mulan strictly obeyed Chu Tian's orders. Even Hua Mulan, the mastermind of Xun You, was not spared. Xun You was wrapped into a rice dumpling and could not escape even if he wanted to. This time Hua Mulan

But he captured dozens of civil servants and generals in one go.

"Lord, we have entered Guanzhong and have a lot to do. Why surrender to Chu Zimou and let him decide whether to live or die? The captain of the Sili School told me that my lord is Yanzhou Mu, a general of chariots and cavalry, and his salary is much higher than that of the eunuch promised by Chu Zimou.

.And Chu Zimou may not give the lord real power."

Cao Chun was kidnapped and still didn't understand Cao Cao's decision.

The icing on the cake is not as good as providing help when it is timely.

"I can't decide either."

Cao Cao shook his head.

Cao Cao should not have been so hesitant, but at this time he was defeated and panicked like a lost dog. For a while, Cao Cao didn't know whether his choice was correct or not.

After Hua Mulan captured Cao Cao's men, she stationed at Hulao Pass and controlled the most powerful pass in the world.

Chu Tian defeated Qin Qiong, and Cheng Yaojin immediately led his cavalry to Hulao Pass to join Hua Mulan and Wei Qing.

"Cao Cao didn't escape..."

Chu Tian thought Cao Cao had escaped, but after Cao Cao escaped to Hulao Pass, he chose to lead everyone to surrender, which caught Chu Tian off guard.

"Brother Meng De, we meet again."

Chu Tian saw the disgraced Cao Cao at Hulao Pass.

Cao Cao is now in a real sense gray-headed and dirt-faced, with dirt on his face and big streaks.

Cao Cao smiled bitterly: "Chu Zimou, the hemp rope is too tight."

"How can we tie the tiger loosely? Come here and loosen the ties for Brother Meng De."

Chu Tian asked people to untie Cao Cao.

Obviously Hua Mulan remembered Chu Tian's instructions and knew that Cao Cao was full of tricks, so she simply tied Cao Cao up so that he would not be fooled.

Cao Cao moved his hands and feet, but he couldn't help but sigh.

He originally looked down on Yuan Shu and other princes, but one day he himself was reduced to such a state, which made people sigh.

Chu Tian glanced at the group of prisoners around Cao Cao. These were all prominent figures in Cao Wei's camp, but he ended up taking the blame.

Cao Cao was located at the junction of Yanzhou, Yuzhou, Sili, Jizhou and other places, but he took the initiative to surrender, which undoubtedly won Chutian's favor.

"Mengde, I suspect that you escaped here deliberately and waited for a price to sell."

Chu Tian looked at Cao Cao. Cao Cao was shocked and said quickly: "I don't dare to have such an idea. I just saw the towering tiger prison and remembered the joint attack on Dong Zhuo two years ago. Now, although Lao Qin is winning people's hearts in the pass, he is assisting the emperor.

, promotes kindness, but in the end, he is only second to Dong Zhuo."

"Wherever Mengde wants to be the governor next, just ask."

"I just want to go to Xia City and serve my father. I don't want to be the governor."

Cao Cao knew that there were too many civil servants and generals related to him. Although Chu Tian allowed him to choose the position of prefect at will, how could Cao Cao not see that Chu Tian was somewhat wary of him.

Cao Cao was a smart man.

"Mengde will serve as a filial piety in Xiacheng for a year or two before he can be appointed again."

Before Chutian completely digested Cao Cao's territory, he really didn't dare to use Cao Cao. Cao Cao was different from Gongziwen. Gongziwen was for Chutian to contain Cao Cao. This was Gongziwen's letter of submission. Chutian directly appointed Gongziwen as the prefect of Jiyin County.

, temporarily maintain the original official position.

Cao Cao has not yet made a declaration of surrender for Chu Tian.

Cao Cao and Chu Tian had many interactions. The two sides fought side by side at Hulao Pass and Mobei. As long as a surrender certificate was issued in the future, Chu Tian could still consider using Cao Cao.

"This strong man must be Dian Wei."

Chu Tian saw among the many prisoners a general with a heavy back and a waist as thick as a bucket, and knew that this was Dian Wei, a member of the Five Tiger Generals.

Chu Tian had Xue Rengui, Zhao Yun, Li Guang and other powerful generals who were no weaker than Dian Wei, but the proportions of these generals were not as exaggerated as Dian Wei.

Dian Wei stood there, the breath of the fierce general rushing towards his face.

Dian Wei didn't have much favorable impression of Chu Tian who had captured him, so he glanced to one side.

Cao Hong, Cao Chun, Xia Houyuan and other generals also had no favorable impressions of Chu Tian.

The small piece of territory they had worked so hard to build was completely destroyed by Chu Zimou. It was strange to have a favorable impression of him.

Chu Tian somewhat understood why Cao Cao's camp wanted to defect to other princes. He suppressed Cao Cao too harshly.

Cao Cao's power is different from other forces. Cao Cao has too many clan generals, and basically only Cao Cao takes the lead. Cao Cao's decision is the decision of Cao Hong, Cao Chun, Cao Ren, Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Dun and other generals.

"Xuzhou Mu..."

Among the generals, Zhang Liao had the most conciliatory attitude toward Chu Tian. After all, Chu Tian saved Zhang Liao's life. Zhang Liao had not been in Cao Cao's camp for a long time, and he was not a clan general.

Compared to other generals of the Cao family, Zhang Liao was more at ease with Chu Tian.

Compared with the Cao clan, Chutian valued Zhang Liao, Xun You, Cheng Yu and others more...

The expressions of these civil servants were calm, and they did not panic about changing camps. With their talents, they could prosper in any camp.

"Where is Xun Wenruo?"

Chu Tian counted Cao Cao's camp and found that a group of people were missing, and the representative figure Xun Yu was missing.

"When Wen Ruo arrived in Guanzhong, I didn't make things difficult for them."

Cao Cao hesitated and answered truthfully.

"Xun You is here, why is Xun Yu..."

Chu Tian already knew the answer by looking at Cao Cao. Cao Cao also knew why Xun Yu went to Guanzhong.

"Xun Chen took refuge in Yuan Shao, Xun Yu took refuge in Guanzhong, and Xun You took refuge in me. The Xun family is good at making plans."

Chu Tian's eyes shifted from Cao Cao to Xun You.

The three Xun family members each took refuge in the three great princes of Hebei, Guanzhong, and Xuzhou. No matter which prince wins, the Xun family will always be the winner.

No wonder there is a saying - a century-old dynasty, a thousand-year-old family.

The same is true for the Langya Zhuge family.

Zhuge Liang served the Kingdom of Shu, Zhuge Jin served the Kingdom of Wu, and Zhuge was born in the Kingdom of Wei. Later generations have said that Shu got its dragon, Wu got its tiger, and Wei got its dog.

Seeing that Chu Tian spoke frankly, Xun You bowed to Chu Tian after he was released: "Since Gongda has chosen to stay, he will definitely help Meng De sincerely. If he is reused, please have no doubt about it."

Xun You knew that Chu Tian knew the family's little plans and did not hide the Xun family's thoughts.

Chu Tian believed 90% of Xun You's words.

Judging from the performance of the Langya Zhuge family, the disciples of these aristocratic families each serve their own monarch and are indeed working hard. As for whether they will communicate with each other in private...

Cheng Yu is a nobleman from Dongjun, and his influence is much lower than that of the Xun family. He supports Cao Cao's choice to stay in Guandong. Even if Cao Cao lets him leave, Cheng Yu will eventually choose to stay in Yanzhou.

The Yanzhou gentry were obviously unwilling to go to Guanzhong.

"Where is Chen Gongtai?"

Chu Tian thought that among the captured generals, Chen Gong was missing. In his impression, Chen Gong was also a member of the Yanzhou noble family.

Cao Cao said: "That day, my disciples assassinated Liu Dai and Zhang Miao, the governors of Yanzhou, and Chen Gongtai noticed it. Chen Gongtai was so angry that he abandoned his official position and ran away without a trace."

"I see."

In addition to the diversified investment of the Xun family, Chen Gong had already abandoned Cao Cao, and almost all of Cao Cao's men were captured by Chu Tian.

There was also a young general among the prisoners, who looked a little unfamiliar: "This person?"

Cao Cao recommended: "I recruited Archer Li Ling from Mobei."

"Li Ling..."

Chu Tian wondered, isn't this Li Guang's grandson?

Li Ling, a general during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, led five thousand Han soldiers deep into Junji Mountain. He was besieged by tens of thousands of Xiongnu cavalry. The entire army was wiped out and then surrendered to the Xiongnu. Sima Qian was castrated for defending Li Ling's defeat...

"good."

Chu Tian patted Li Ling on the shoulder to encourage him. In the future, Li Guang and Li Ling could cooperate with each other to fight against the enemy.

"Ding! The imperial civil servant Xun You pledges his allegiance to you."

"Ding! King-level civil servant Cheng Yu pledges his allegiance to you."

"Ding! King-level general Zhang Liao pledges his allegiance to you."

"Ding! Diamond-level general Li Ling pledges his allegiance to you."

"Ding! Platinum-level general Lu Qian pledges his allegiance to you."

…

A group of civil servants and generals who were not particularly close to Cao Cao surrendered to Chu Tian.

Chu Tian looked at Cao Cao and saw what Cao Cao meant by ordering Chu Tian.

From today on, he will give up his status as a prince.

"Ding! The imperial commander Cao Cao pledges his allegiance to you."

The significance of Cao Cao's loyalty is greater than that of other generals, which means that Chu Tian's prestige can already suppress a powerful hero.

"You can do whatever you want..."

Cao Cao looked at Cao Hong, Cao Chun, Xia Houyuan, Le Jin, Dian Wei and others who were unwilling.

After Cao Cao pledged his allegiance, Cao Hong and others had no choice but to pledge their allegiance.

"Ding! The imperial general Dian Wei pledges his allegiance to you."

"Ding! King-level general Xia Houyuan pledges his allegiance to you."

"Ding! Diamond-level general Cao Hong pledges his allegiance to you."

"Ding! Diamond-level general Cao Chun pledges his allegiance to you."

"Ding! Diamond-level general Le Jin pledges his allegiance to you."

"Ding! Platinum-level general Li Dian pledges his allegiance to you."

…

Chu Tian was alarmed by a series of reminders of loyalty, and his scalp went numb.

Cao Cao's attitude alone allowed so many high-quality civil servants and generals to join him almost at the same time. It was like sending talents to Chu Tian.

This is why Chutian valued Cao Cao.

Getting these talents is better than getting half of Yanzhou.

"Ding! The SSS-level achievement "Three Kingdoms" is activated. Try to make Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan loyal, and you can get rewards."

"Ding! The S-level achievement 'The Mastermind and Wang Zuo' is now available. Collect the two heroes Xun You and Xun Yu to get rewards."

"Ding! The S-level achievement "Evil Lai and Tiger Chi" is activated. Collect the two heroes Dian Wei and Xu Chu to get rewards."

"Ding! The S-level achievement 'Five Good Generals' is unlocked. Collect Zhang Liao, Yu Jin, Le Jin, Zhang He, and Xu Huang to get rewards."

Four achievement tasks are also opened.

"Someone, come and untie them."

After Chu Tian confirmed the allegiance of this group of people, he ordered the generals to be loosened.

Chu Tian was surrounded by a group of personal guards including Zhao Yun and Tai Shi Ci, and Chu Tian's soldiers and horses were everywhere. Chu Tian was not worried that Cao Cao would fake a surrender.

Unless Cao Cao wants to kill the fish and break the net.

"Lord, there are a large number of cavalry in the direction of Kansai!"

Before Chu Tian had time to look at the face of the most powerful hero of the Three Kingdoms, Hua Mulan came in to report urgently.

Chu Tian led a group of surrendered generals to Hulao Pass. Xiong Pass was already controlled by the Xuzhou Army.

"Old Qin Jiujiu came a step too late. Hulao Pass belongs to me, and it will be difficult for the Guanzhong Army to enter Guandong unless they take a detour."

Chu Tian suspected that Cao Cao intended to give Hulao Pass to him.

Jiujiu Lao Qin led the Guanzhong cavalry and arrived. Seeing that Cao Cao had gone back on his word and dedicated Hulao Pass to Chu Tian, ​​he couldn't help but be angry.

As the mastermind of Jiujiu Lao Qin, Jia Xu said to Jiujiu Lao Qin: "Xun Yu came to surrender, but Xun You stayed in Guandong. The Xun family in Yingchuan spread their chess pieces..."

"How could I not know that almost all Cao Mengde's forces were annexed by Chu Zimu? I can get a Xun Yu, and I can't ask for more. Hulao Pass is owned by Chu Zimu. Am I not going to be able to set foot in Guandong in my whole life?"
