Jia Xu, Cai Yong, Wen Sheng and others were also frightened by Zhou Cheng's decision.

They did not expect that Zhou Cheng would hand over the government affairs of Jizhou to Li Ru.

However, after being shocked, he heard Zhou Cheng say:"Wen You, Dong Gong was able to enter Luoyang because of your plan. I have no doubts about employing people, and I don't use people who are suspicious. If you have great talents, I will reuse them. These words are not false."."

Li Ru shook his head lightly, then bowed down, bowed vigorously to Zhou Cheng, and said:"I have been with Duke Dong for many years, and I thought that there would be no place for me to stand up in the world, but my lord appreciates it, and I think of my lord's kindness. But this person is a guilty person and cannot hold this important position."

Li Ru knew himself. He poisoned King Liu Bian of Hongnong and strangled Queen Mother He. He was also Dong Zhuo's mastermind, and everyone in the world hated him.

If he takes charge of Jizhou's government affairs on his behalf, he will definitely cause a lot of trouble.

Zhou Cheng also wanted to persuade him, but Li Ru was determined.

Zhou Cheng could only give up and said,"In that case, then stay in the tent and plan for me.""

……

Zhou Cheng asked Xun Cai to select a polite and kind-hearted woman from each family to marry Li Ru as his concubine. At the same time, he also arranged a place for Li Ru to live.

As for gold, silver, orbs, a lot of them were also given away.

Although after ups and downs, Li Ru didn't care about money and women, Zhou Cheng gave these to show that he valued them.

Li Ru did not refuse and accepted them all.

AD 1946.

Since Cao Cao took the lead in transporting grain to Luoyang, Li Jue and Guo Si were very satisfied and promoted Cao Cao to the position of Yanzhou Shepherd.

Liu Dai was also very sensible and honest, and gave Yanzhou to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao completely controlled the entire Yanzhou and began to actively plot against Xuzhou.

Coincidentally, Cao Cao's father and former Taiwei Cao Song was hiding from the war in Langye. Cao Cao ordered Taishan Taishou to welcome Cao Song to Yanzhou.

At this time, Tao Qian sent his general Zhang Kai to escort Cao Song, but Zhang Kai killed him because of Cao Song's assets.

As the saying goes, the hatred for killing one's father is irreconcilable.

Cao Song was killed, which angered Cao Cao!

Xun Yu hurriedly admonished:"Lord, get up, you can be angry. If you see victory, you will be prosperous. If you don't see victory, you will stop!

" If there is no guarantee of victory, then the fight should be stopped.

The current Cao Cao is not the same Cao Cao in history.

Because Zhou Cheng disrupted history, Cao Cao lost Qingzhou soldiers, and the time he occupied Yanzhou was short, far from the level of strong soldiers, strong horses, and sufficient food and grass.

And Tao Qian is the Mu of Xuzhou. No matter how weak Xuzhou is, it is impossible to defeat it in just one or two months.

Therefore, Xun Yu persuaded Cao Cao to calm down.

However, Cao Cao ignored this and said:"The hatred for killing my father is irreconcilable!"

In 1947 AD, Cao Cao ignored the dissuasion of Xun Yu and others and raised 100,000 troops to attack Xuzhou.

When Tao Qian learned that Cao Cao was coming to attack Xuzhou, he was completely confused. On the one hand, he organized troops and horses to defend the city, and on the other hand, he sent people to various states to seek reinforcements.

However, Yuan Shu waited to see the excitement and was unwilling to send troops to help Tao Qian.

Yuan Shao had a good relationship with Cao Cao, but because he had to deal with Zhou Cheng, he did not send troops to join the war.

Liu Biao and Sun Jian had been in constant conflict recently, and there was a possibility of war at any time. Therefore, they used this as an excuse to refuse to send troops to help Tao Qian.

Tao Qian's envoy went to see Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan again, but both of them were unable to do anything.

However, Liu Bei found an opportunity and decided to lead his army to Xuzhou to help Tao Qian defend Xuzhou.

……

Zhou Cheng said:"Teacher, Cao Mengde raised an army to attack Xuzhou, and I want to lead the army to attack it."

Zhou Cheng knew Cao Cao's abilities very well, although it took several years for Cao Cao to rise because he messed up history.

However, the reputation Cao Cao accumulated over the years, as well as his own family background, still allowed Cao Cao to rise smoothly.

Therefore, Tao Qian thought it might be difficult to resist Cao Cao.

Historically, Cao Cao failed to capture Xuzhou and almost died because of Lu Bu and Liu Bei's interference.

However, now Lu Bu and Yuan Shao were driven to Bingzhou by Zhou Cheng.

Liu Bei now doesn't even know his whereabouts.

If Tao Qian didn't have the help of Lu Bu and Liu Bei, Xuzhou would definitely fall into Cao Cao's hands.

Zhou Cheng would rather Liu Bei and Lu Bu capture Xuzhou than Cao Cao.

At the same time, if conditions permit, Zhou Cheng would not mind annihilating Cao Cao in one battle and completely solving Cao Cao's serious problem.

Li Ru said:"Cao Mengde raises troops to attack Xuzhou, and Yanzhou will be empty. If the lord attacks Yanzhou, he will definitely win."

Jia Xu also said:"It is said that Cao Cao ignores dissuasion and raises troops for his father's enmity, and Yanzhou will inevitably be in chaos. Although the lord cannot Occupying Yanzhou can also make the war in Yanzhou continue."

Zhou Cheng said:"This is what I want."

……

In 1947 AD, Zhou Cheng led the five cavalrymen southward and mobilized 30,000 troops and horses from the Death Fighting Battalion from Jizhou.

In this battle, Zhou Cheng led Zhang Liao as the vanguard and led a death fighting camp of 30,000 men.

At the same time, Zhou Cheng sent an envoy to Luoyang and asked the imperial court to send another minister to Yanzhou to serve as Yanzhou's pastor.
