Now Cai Yong finally left, but before Cao Cao could breathe a sigh of relief, he received news that Cai Yong went to see Wang Yun before leaving. No one knew what they were talking about.

This gave Cao Cao a bad feeling. It was impossible for Cai Yong to go to Wang Yun's house for no reason. The two were not relatives, so there must be a conspiracy.

"Damn it!"Cao Cao covered his head, his head aching slightly. He couldn't help but slap the city wall angrily.

"Lord, are you okay?"Mao Jie, who was in charge of Cao Cao's governance, stepped forward and expressed concern.

"It's okay," Cao Cao gritted his teeth and asked,"How's the matter of moving the capital?

Mao Jie cupped his hands and replied:"It's ready.""

Cao Cao directly ordered:"Send someone to inform Boning (Man Chongzi) and let him prepare to welcome the emperor. We will start moving the capital tomorrow."

Now Man Chong is serving as the prefect of Xuchang.

Mao Jie was slightly surprised when he heard this, and asked in surprise:"Tomorrow?

Cao Cao nodded and said,"Yes, we have to proceed early and catch them off guard.""

The news that the emperor moved the capital soon spread throughout the world, and Xuchang was renamed Xudu. After the capital move was completed, Cao Cao launched an attack in the court, targeting Wang Yun, and wanted to kick Wang Yun out of the court.

However, Wang Yun did not Busy and busy, he counterattacked by spreading the news that Youzhou was willing to pay taxes, which caused Cao Cao to be in chaos. In the end, he failed to bring Wang Yun to the court.

Wang Yun continued to stay in the court and continued to fight with Cao Cao.

Although Cao Cao failed, he did not succeed. Being able to completely control the court made him resent Liu Zhe more and more, and regarded Liu Zhe as a thorn in his side.

However, Cao Cao did not gain anything from moving the capital. In terms of military, he avoided pressure from the other side of the Yellow River. In terms of politics, although he did not realize the general Wang Yun proposed the imperial court's plan, but also gained great prestige. Moreover, after moving the capital, he exerted pressure on Xuzhou to the east, Yuzhou to the south, and Jingzhou and Nanyang to the southwest. With Xudu as the center, it shocked the three places.

After moving the capital , Yuzhou Liu Bei, and Xuzhou Tao Qian all sent envoys to Xuduqin to see Emperor Xian and express their submission.

These gains made Cao Cao feel slightly happy.

"Where has the convoy sent by Liu Zhe gone?"Cao Cao sat at the top, gently stroking his forehead with his left hand. These days of fighting with Wang Yun made his head hurt badly.

""Returning to my lord," Cao Hong went out to report,"We have landed from Baima and entered Dongjun.""

Wang Yun threw out that Liu Zhe resumed paying taxes to the court, allowing Wang Yun to return to his previous disadvantage in one fell swoop. Liu Zhe was willing to pay taxes through Wang Yun, which greatly increased Wang Yun's reputation, and many outsiders turned to Wang Yun.

Because most of them He is meaningful and quick-thinking, and even thinks that Liu Zhe is in alliance with Wang Yun, and Wang Yun is Liu Zhe's ally in the court.

Liu Zhe defeated Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shao, and has long been recognized as the best prince in the world. How can Wang Yun form an alliance with him? It can't be thought of as Pian Pian. Cao Cao is powerful, but no one thinks that Cao Cao can be more powerful than Liu Zhe.

Therefore, many courtiers who had previously taken refuge in Cao Cao turned to Wang Yun, causing Cao Cao to lose a lot of strength. But Xudu is Cao Cao's home base. , Cao Cao finally had the upper hand for the time being due to the geographical advantage. When moving the capital, Liu Zhe had already sent a team to send taxes to Yanzhou. Now he has entered Yanzhou and will reach Xudu in a while.

"How many supplies are there?"Cao Cao thought that when the convoy arrived in Xudu, Wang Yun's momentum would be even greater, and his head began to hurt again.

Damn it, damn Liu Zhe. Cao Cao cursed Liu Zhe in his heart, it's so abominable. Just sent out A fleet of cars had completely negated most of his previous efforts, which really made Cao Cao hate Liu Zhe.

"There are at least 100,000 kilograms of grain, and silk, cotton, fur, etc. are difficult to count and are in huge quantities."The spies passed back the size of the convoy, and Cao Cao's men could roughly come up with a numerical value after some calculations.

"Oh shit!"Cao Cao cursed in his heart. Hearing that Liu Zhe actually gave so many supplies at once, and it was only for a month, he felt jealous. Youzhou is really rich.

Although Yanzhou is under Cao Cao's rule, Yanzhou is located in the Central Plains. The Yellow Turban Rebellion suffered huge damage, and there was very little food tax revenue. In addition, Cao Cao had a large group of soldiers to support, and Cao Cao's life was very tight.

Now I heard that Liu Zhe actually sent so many things at once, Cao Cao wanted to send people to rob him.

"Lord, why not let them come to Xudu? Cao Hong suggested, with a murderous look on his face. As long as Cao Cao nodded, he immediately ordered to intercept the Youzhou convoy.

Cao Cao shook his head, not to mention whether intercepting Liu Zhe's convoy would lead to Liu Zhe's revenge and use it to attack Yanzhou. Liu Zhe was using the banner of righteousness, so Cao Cao had no reason to intercept him unless he wanted to betray the imperial court.

"Lord, my subordinate has a plan."Suddenly someone stood up.

Cao Cao took a closer look and saw that it was Xiahou Dun's younger brother, Xiahou En.

"Any ideas?"Cao Cao was very happy when he saw that he was his brother, feeling that he could still be relied upon at the critical moment.
