"Young Master, why not let Xiu accompany you to send troops to Youzhou." Yang Xiu, who has always been standing in the sidelines of Cao Zhi, did not want to stay behind.

"Dezu, you are a smart person. You should know the importance of this business." After patting Yang Xiu's shoulder, Cao Zhi said in a deep voice, "You and my brothers are in harmony, don't let me down. Within three years, I will have the financial resources to provide 30,000 troops alone. Within ten years, my wealth will be the best in the world!"

"Young Master... You will be afraid of Sikong!" Yang Xiu naturally understood Cao Zhi's intention, but he did not agree.

He believes that the battle for the throne should start with the court.

"If we have the strength, it doesn't matter if we are afraid."

With the integration of two lifetimes of thinking, many of Cao Zhi's views have changed long ago. "Dezu, we must not only play the chess in our hands within the rules, but also have the ability to overturn the chessboard. This is the foolproof way!"

Looking at Cao Zhi's firm face, Yang Xiu's mouth twitched, and he wanted to say nothing, and said for a while, "Since the young master decided to do his best, Xiu would do his best for the young master."

"I am still very relieved to Dezu's talent, but Dezu, remember the four words "sharp and restraint." After that, Cao Zhi patted Yang Xiu's shoulder and said softly, "Dezu, you go down first. I still have something to talk to Zhen Mi."

Feeling Cao Zhi's warm palm on his shoulder, Yang Xiu suddenly felt an unprecedented weight pressing into his heart.

"Young Master, the Xiu retired."

Yang Xiu left, only Cao Zhi and Zhen Mi were left in the room.

Looking at Zhen Mi who was kneeling opposite him, Cao Zhi smiled and reached out to pull the beauty into his arms.

"Mi'er, after I leave, I will leave it all to you." Feeling the softness of the beauty in my arms, Cao Zhi said lightly, "Although you are my wife, you have not paid any formal tribute after all, but this is not important. You act in the name of my wife, and you don't need to worry about it. It's just that my name is not intimidating. Even if you act in the name of me, many things may not be so easy to accomplish."

"In addition, although my father secretly supports the acquiescent, he will not express his opinion openly. Therefore, there must be a lot of obstacles openly and secretly, especially the resistance of Cao Pi's forces. Even with Yang Dezu's assistance, it may be difficult to be complete. Faced with these, Mi'er, you only need to remember one sentence: obey the law and ignore the honor."

"If you obey the law, I will be right. I will be right. No one's superiority is useless. You do not need to be humble when you should be low-key, and you will be arrogant when you should be arrogant!"

"I will use Youzhou's war report to make the dishonest people honest!"

"I will remember my husband's teachings." Zhen Mi said seriously in her arms.

"Well, you, I, husband and wife are one, I'll be at ease when you do things." Yan Fei nodded, "Now everything I have is given by my father. If you give it, you can get it back. What we have to do is to accumulate strength as soon as possible in the few years of pacifying the north, and have the strength to let my father not take it away!"

"Husband, you were just asking Yang Xiu to be introverted, why... are you so sharp now?" What Cao Zhi said and done made Zhen Mi feel uneasy. These things seemed not to be fighting for the throne, but to be planning a rebellion.

"I'm different from him." Yan Fei shook his head slightly, "People's hearts change. My father likes me very much now, but it does not mean that he doesn't like other sons. Therefore, if the position of prince is just a matter of just a father's mouth, then we will be too passive."

"The future is determined by my father's preferences, haha...... Your husband is not a passive person who pleases me, and I must seize my destiny in my own hands!"

"Also, the Tai Chi stake I taught you, you need to practice every day. If there is a real possibility, you must have the ability to break through the siege alone!"

"When a person lives, everything can be started over. If he dies, then nothing will be gone."

"I thank you for your mercy." After listening to Cao Zhi's words, Zhen Mi felt warm in her heart.

"Pity, do I pity you?" A chuckle, and in Zhen Mi's exclamation, Cao Zhi suddenly turned over and pressed Zhen Mi under him.

A month passed in a blink of an eye.

Cao Cao led his army to fight, and Yecheng became much deserted.

Of course, Cao Zhi’s military camp outside Yecheng still has daily training.

"Wen Yuan, Jun Yi, how are the Chongqi Camp and Modao Camp now training?" In the military camp, Cao Zhi asked, listening to the training sounds of killing in the distance.

"Soldiers are all elite soldiers, but now they have changed their tactics, and they are always a little unfamiliar. January training has already mastered the fighting methods of heavy cavalry. During training, the power can be seen, but the actual combat needs to be tested on the battlefield." Zhang Liao, who was wearing heavy armor, said, "In January, all the soldiers of the heavy cavalry camp have mastered the stake skills. Although there are differences in entry, their control over power has increased greatly. It can be burdened with more than 100 kilograms of armor for a long time, but... people can do it, but horses can't carry heavy armor for a long time."

Horsepower is stronger than human power, but the armor on horses is also heavier than the weight of armor on humans.

"One person and more horses, is it feasible?" Cao Zhi looked at Ju Su.

Now Ju Su is responsible for military logistics management and other things other than war, and war horses are naturally part of his management.

Seeing Cao Zhi's gaze, Ju Shu said lightly, "Report to the general, now there are 8,000 war horses in the army, 3,000 heavy cavalry and 5,000 light cavalry, and the horses are full. Moreover, although our food and grass are relatively abundant, if we introduce war horses in large quantities, the food and grass will soon be short of food and grass. In addition, according to your regulations, pay monthly, and those with excellent training in the army will double. After the military salary is paid this month, there are not many supplies left before that Sikong has allocated."

"In addition, when building Modao, the iron ore with heavy armor has reached its bottom. However, the Heavy Cavalry Camp still lacks 1,800 sets of heavy armor, and the Modao Camp still lacks 400 Modao and supporting armor."

"You used to borrow iron ore from various families by borrowing money and promised to repay the money in January. Now that the January period has arrived, can the general need to pay back the debt?"

After saying that, Ju Su also handed Yan Fei a roll of bamboo slips.

The bamboo slips record the consumption of the entire army. Looking at the huge numbers above, Cao Zhi had a headache and severe pain!

Cao Zhi wanted to present all the Modao team built by the Tang Dynasty and the heavy armored iron pagoda built by the Jin Dynasty with all its efforts. Although the number and scale were different, the cost was astronomical.

"The Zhen family's supplies are being transported, and they should be able to quench their thirst temporarily, but I can't think of it."

"I have already let Zhen Mi start doing business and make money, but it may be extremely difficult to get so much gold and silver in a short period of time." Cao Zhi looked at Jia Xu, who was squinting and Ju Su who looked up at the sky, "What can you do to solve the problem of money, gentlemen?"

"Hebei gentry is still very rich." Ju Su suddenly spoke after a while of silence.

"Are they willing to give it?" Cao Zhi asked.

"I heard that Zhang Yan of Heishan surrendered to Sikong, and some of the small leaders under him were unwilling to follow him, and they are now wandering around." Ju Su spoke again.

Yuan Shao was completely defeated by Cao Cao in the later period and had a great relationship with the Hebei gentry. Ju Su was very angry about this, so he also put his ideas on them.

Hearing Ju Su's words, Jia Xu raised his squinting eyes slightly, looked at Ju Su, and then lowered them.

"General, once someone discovers, the consequences will be unimaginable." Jia Xu said softly.

"How can you not be discovered?" Cao Zhi asked.

"Don't do it." Jia Xu whispered.

"What if I have to do it?" Cao Zhi asked.
