In an instant, the original look of shock on Cao Pi's face disappeared, and his body was slightly shocked. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

After a moment of silence, the corners of Cao Pi's mouth raised slightly, hooking up an equally cold and mysterious sneer.

Jia Xu is right, he is the only beneficiary of this failure.

Chang'an City is broken, Cao Ang is to blame, even if he escapes successfully, his reputation will be greatly damaged, and whether he can sit on the throne of the prince is a problem.

But the wonderful thing is that it seems that God is helping him Cao Pi, so Cao Ang didn't even have a chance to lose his reputation, and directly became a captive of the potter.

What kind of person is the potter, that is the notoriously cruel king, what is the Yuan father and son, Liu Biao and Liu Zhang, after falling into his hands, which one has a good end, they are all brutally killed.

Since Cao Angdu is already dead, isn't this position of the prince of Great Qin all me?

This is simply a windfall from heaven, it's no wonder that Cao Pi can bend over without smiling.

"Wen He's words are reasonable, Wen He's words are reasonable, this is really unpredictable, blessings and disasters are unpredictable, hahaha-" Cao Pi became excited, and he actually laughed proudly.

Jia Xu frowned slightly, coughed a few times, and reminded: "Second prince, the minister reminds you, the eldest prince is your own brother, now he is trapped in the Wei camp, life and death are unknown, you are not worried about him, but laughing here, if this reaches the ears of Your Majesty, what will you think of the second prince." ”

Cao Pi's body shook suddenly, a sense of fear surged in his eyebrows, and he subconsciously shivered, but he was busy retracting his smile, and arched his hand and said: "Mr. Wenhe reminded me right, I was excited for a while, and I lost my temper. ”

Jia Xu nodded with satisfaction.

"What does Mr. Wenhe think I should do now?" Cao Pi asked for advice again.

Jia Xu took a sip of wine and said unhurriedly: "Since Your Majesty is close to Chencang, what the second prince has to do now is naturally to go out of the city as soon as possible to greet him, and when he meets the Son of Heaven, the second prince must not show a trace of pride, but also show his concern for the life and death of the prince, so that the Son of Heaven and everyone can see that the second prince is a good brother who knows the way of brotherly filial piety, and the second prince must remember this." ”

"Well, I'll take my husband's advice to heart." Cao Pi comprehended quickly, and nodded his head when he was busy.

Then, Jia Xu sighed again: "Although the crown prince is captured and Chang'an City is broken, there are immediate benefits for the second prince, but after all, the country is in danger right now, if my Great Qin is not guaranteed, even if the second prince gets the position of the crown prince, what is the use." ”

After a pause, Jia Xu continued: "So, since there is no one competing with the second prince for the crown prince, then the most important thing for the second prince at the moment is how to help His Majesty resist the invasion of the Wei army and help me turn the crisis into safety for the Great Wei Sheji. ”

Jia Xu's words made Cao Pi suddenly brightened, and suddenly jumped up and paced in the hall, pondering and digesting Jia Xu's golden and jade words.

A moment later, a playful sneer appeared in Cao Pi's eyes.

Then, he waved his head towards Jia Xu, and said with a straight face: "Thank you Mr. for your teachings, so that Pi Mao suddenly opened, how should Pi share the worries of his father and the emperor, and ensure that my Great Qin Sheji is not lost, and please give me advice." ”

"It's actually simple." Jia Xu smiled, approached Cao Pi, and whispered in his ear: "If His Royal Highness sees His Majesty later, he will say so......"

……

It was nearly dusk, outside the city of Chencang.

Cao Pi, Jia Xu and Wang Ping stood on the official road, facing the wind and snow, looking in the direction of the east, looking forward to it.

The broken battle flag with the word "Qin" in front of him finally came into view, and tens of thousands of Qin soldiers and soldiers all entered the field of vision with their heads down.

Cao Cao and his defeated soldiers have finally arrived.

Jia Xu glanced at Cao Pi, Cao Pi understood, and was busy galloping up, greeted him, and went straight to Cao Cao at the front.

"The son of the emperor to see the father, the son of the minister focused on guarding against the enemy in the south, just heard that the father is coming, before the time to greet him, and asked the father to forgive the sin." Cao Pi knelt down in front of Cao Cao's horse and sincerely begged for forgiveness.

Cao Cao looked at his second son, and his heart was relieved for a while, and he hurriedly brushed his hands and smiled: "Pi'er has meritorious service in defending the city, and it has worked hard, how can I blame you, get up quickly." ”

Cao Pi got up at this time, glanced at the team, and asked pretending not to know: "Father is coming to Chencang, is it Chang'an City......"

Cao Pi wanted to speak and stopped, caring about Cao Cao's face, and did not finish speaking.

"It's hard to say, let's go, let's go into the city." Cao Cao shook his head and sighed, and he didn't want to tell his son about his defeat in front of the soldiers.

Cao Pi didn't dare to ask more, so he stepped forward and personally grabbed the reins of the horse for his father, leading Cao Cao into Chencang City.

Cao Cao was moved again in his heart, and there was a trace of tears in his eyes, obviously he didn't expect that his son would be so filial, and it was really not easy to lead a horse for himself in such a cold weather.

"Pi'er is really a filial son, I really looked away this time, I looked away......" Cao Cao nodded slightly, secretly admiring in his heart, the more he looked at his son, the more pleasing he felt.

The military generals on the left and right, as well as those soldiers, saw Cao Pi personally leading the horse for the emperor, and they all nodded secretly, all appreciating Cao Pi's filial piety.

Cao Cao entered the city, and the rest of the army camped outside the city of Chencang.

A moment later, the Cao family, father and son, were already alone in the lobby of the military mansion.

Cao Pi personally helped Cao Cao sit down, and he added fire to Cao Cao, and added wine to Cao Cao, shh

Cao Cao was more and more moved, and he was full of praise for this time, and finally after he couldn't hold it back, he told the story of the defeat of Chang'an City.

Cao Pi actually knew it a long time ago, but he pretended to be shocked and blurted out: "What, was the imperial brother actually captured by that pottery thief?" ”

"Alas......" Cao Cao shook his head and sighed bitterly: "Father didn't expect that your eldest brother would be so useless, just lose Chang'an City, and even be captured alive by the pottery thief, it's really a shame for my Great Qin." ”

Speaking of this, Cao Cao couldn't help but raise his wine glass and poured a sip of stuffy wine.

Just when Cao Cao wasn't paying attention, a subtle sneer quietly flashed in Cao Pi's eyes.

Immediately afterwards, Cao Pi said with a straight face: "Father, although the imperial brother has made a big mistake and damaged my great Qin national prestige, but in the end he is also my eldest brother, how can he sit back and watch him fall into the hands of the pottery thief, life and death are uncertain, please lead an elite army to kill back to Chang'an, even if you fight for your life, you must save the imperial brother." ”

Hearing Cao Pi's generous words, Cao Cao was instantly moved to tears, grabbed Cao Pi's hand, and exclaimed: "Pi'er, you are really a filial child, I didn't misunderstand you, I really didn't misjudge you......"

was so praised by Cao Cao, Cao Pi was naturally more proud in his heart, but he didn't show anything, and he was busy with a generous statement, showing his brotherly love for Cao Ang, and repeatedly asked to lead the army to save him.

Cao Cao stroked Cao Pi's shoulder and sighed: "I know that you have been good with your eldest brother since you were a child, and I also know how worried you are about your eldest brother's safety, but the pottery thief is cruel, and now your eldest brother has fallen into the hands of the pottery thief, which is no different from death, I have already lost a son, how can I risk losing your son again." ”

Cao Cao was persuaded by "bitter words" for a long time, and Cao Pi was forced to give up, but there were tears in his eyes and he sighed.

After playing the brotherhood for a long time, Cao Pi Fang Shiping calmed down and asked: "Now that Chang'an City has been seized by pottery thieves, how does my father plan to deal with it?" ”

Cao Cao shook his head and sighed bitterly: "I am in a state of confusion right now, and I can't make up my mind for a moment, Pi'er, do you have any suggestions?" ”

"This ......" Cao Cao hesitated: "Erchen does have a bit of a humble opinion, but I don't know whether to talk about it or not." ”

Cao Cao's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly waved his hands and said: "Pi'er, you have always had a plan, and you have a good strategy, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Cao Pi cleared his throat and said slowly: "Now that Chang'an City has been lost, our army has no strong city to defend in Guanzhong, and there is no land to rely on, and it is impossible to hold Guanzhong." According to the opinion of the sons, it is better for the army to retreat to Longxi quickly, and use Longshan as a barrier to resist the enemy in the east of Longshan. ”

Offering the time, Cao Pi has stood up and gestured on the map, "And in the north direction, more than 200,000 iron horsemen of Han Xian have moved south, I believe that the pottery thief will not be able to resist, as long as we can drag it out for a few months, the pottery thief will definitely lead the army north to rescue and Ji, then we will take advantage of the situation to go east out of Longshan, and we will be able to regain the lost territory in one fell swoop." ”

Cao Cao stared at the map, listened to Cao Pi's analysis, and couldn't help nodding slightly, and a little confidence resurfaced on his originally gloomy face.

He Qin State possessed Liangyong and Yongzhou, of which Liangzhou mainly produced good horses and strong soldiers, while Yongzhou had fertile land and provided it with grain and grass military resources.

The Tianshui counties to the west of the mountain are customarily called the counties of Longxi, and the Jingzhao, Fufeng, Fengyi, and the counties of the north to the east of the mountain are customarily called the counties of Guanzhong.

Among them, the Guanzhong counties take Chang'an as the core, located in the Weiping Plain, and are the richest places in Yongzhou, while the Longxi counties are not as rich as the Guanzhong counties, but the land is also fertile, and can barely supply grain and grass.

Although Cao Cao has lost the counties of Guanzhong, there are still Liangzhou to supply good horses, Longxi counties to supply grain and grass, and Longshan Mountain, which is geographically advantageous, has not yet reached the time when the mountains and rivers are exhausted.

Cao Cao kept his eyes off the map, chewing on what Cao Pi said over and over again, analyzing and calculating his current strength, weighing the trend of the world, and analyzing the pros and cons of Wei.

After a while, Cao Cao smiled, not only a relieved smile, but also a smile of relief and approval.

Turning around suddenly, Cao Cao stroked Cao Pi's shoulders and exclaimed: "Pi'er, I really didn't expect that you could have this insight, your plan can be called Wang Zuo's strategy, I really should have ...... it in the first place."

Speaking of emotion, Cao Cao's tone was a little choked, and he didn't know what words to use to describe his appreciation of Cao Pi at this moment.

In his mouth, he was about to blurt out that he should have made you Cao Pi the crown prince in the first place.

Cao Pi's heart beat faster, and he suddenly became excited, just waiting for Cao Cao to say this.
