Chapter 434
"No!" Xiahou Yuan also responded.
Cao Cao had already decided, and Xi Zhicai had no idea of continuing to persuade.
Then he didn't have anything to say, because he couldn't persuade him, and he also felt that the words of Cao Cao and Xi Zhicai had a certain amount of truth.
Although he is a military general, he is a person with strategy, and it is still easy to hear the thoughts in the words of Cao Cao and Xi Zhicai.
It's not hard to understand.
And now it is not difficult to take the land of Jizhou, even if Cao Cao is not there, he can take it.
Since Liu Bei and Gongsun Du raised their troops, they affected Yuan Shao, and they took the opportunity to defeat Yuan Shao's army in one fell swoop, and won a great victory in the Battle of Guandu, which was the time when morale was high.
On the contrary, Yuan Jun was demoralized.
Yuan Shao also fled back to Jizhou City, sending troops to defend everywhere, but they couldn't stop their annexation of Jizhou at all.
Suddenly raised troops to deal with Yuan Shao's Liu Bei and Gongsun Du.
Liu Bei also seemed to know that he was picking on the soft ones, and he didn't have the idea of going against their Cao army, attacking Youzhou that Yuan Shao had taken from Gongsun Zhan.
A head-on encounter between the two of them was avoided.
After all, even if Liu Bei was the factor in their great victory in the Battle of Guandu, if the two armies met in Jizhou, there would still be a certain battle.
Although they took the opportunity to win a big victory, they also occupied a certain advantage in the battle of Guandu, and if they wanted to win, they were just short of time, but Liu Bei's actions made the time advance.
Whatever, Jizhou is the target they want to take.
If Liu Bei wants to seize the territory of Jizhou, he will also be their opponent.
Not to mention, they themselves are enemies,
As for Liaodong Taishou Gongsun Du, it is not in the scope of their concerns, even if he has ideas about Jizhou, it cannot be implemented.
That Liu Bei and Gongsun Du attacked Youzhou, and they also saved a lot of things.
Even so, we have to guard against it.
......
At last.
Cao Cao also stayed in Jizhou for one more day, made many arrangements, and all kinds of things, and then continued to attack the land of Jizhou and handed it over to Xiahou Yuan.
Early the next morning, he took hundreds of soldiers, as well as Yu Ban, Li Dian, and Xi Zhicai, from Yecheng and headed for Chang'an.
Obviously, he is preparing to go to Chang'an for an appointment.
Although Yuan Shao is also being invited, according to the current situation, whether Yuan Shao can go or not is not something he can care about.
Cao Cao wants to take over the entire land of Jizhou, and now he has also seized a lot of Jizhou's territory, but he will not stop there, that is not his approach.
And Yuan Shao is the person he wants to take.
Even if he got out of the way and let Yuan Shao go to Chang'an, Yuan Shao didn't dare to leave, let alone have the idea of going to Chang'an, right?
However, this is not something he needs to think about.
Now that the decision has been made.
Cao Cao was also a resolute person, and with people, he rushed to Chang'an.
He also has a lot of questions, he wants to know something, and he also wants to figure out Qin Yin's thoughts, which will determine what he will do next.
Now it is different from before, the unclear relationship between him and Qin Yin should also have a saying, with the growth of power, some things can not be done with his ideas, there are still many aspects that need to be considered.
How to decide.
Then it depends on this trip to Chang'an.
This is also the main reason why Cao Cao wants to rush to Chang'an to make an appointment.
Of course, this is also because the battle situation in Jizhou can basically be said to be the overall situation, and there will be no problems, so he did not hesitate to make such a decision.
If he was almost the same as Yuan Jun and were at a stalemate with each other, even if he had a certain idea, he would not leave Jizhou at this time.
Things are still prioritized.
When Cao Cao personally led the team to Chang'an for an appointment.
Yuan Shao, Liu Bei, Sun Quan and others also received letters sent by Qin Yin, which was similar to Cao Cao's.
Moreover, the matter of the state funeral, as well as the day when King Chen Liuwang ascended the throne and became emperor, has also been decided, so that these people can have enough time to rush to Chang'an City.
Inviting these people to Chang'an City, if they have any ideas, only Qin Yin knows it.
But.
Not all of them were like Cao Cao and went to Chang'an to make an appointment.
For example, Sun Quan and Sun Zhongmou did not have the idea of setting off or sending envoys at all, and the Jiangdong Army and the Qin Army were still fighting in full swing in Jingzhou.
But neither side has made much progress.
The Jiangdong army only took the opportunity to seize the land of Jiangxia, and was unable to break through the defenses of the Qin army and invade the rest of the territory of Jingzhou.
The Qin army only held on to Jiangling and Xinye, only defensively, and did not take the initiative to attack.
And Zhuge Liang and the others, who Qin Yin stayed in Jingzhou, saw that the battle was stalemate, and they also began to consolidate their territory in Jingzhou and stabilize the situation everywhere.
The newly won territory still needs to be consolidated.
And Yuan Shao in Jizhou, even if he wanted to go, he had no way.
After all, Cao Jun was blocking his way to Chang'an, once he went, it was difficult to guarantee that Cao Jun would not take the opportunity to take him down, not to mention, now Yuan Shao was just resisting in the corner.
With the tripartite crusade of Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Gongsun Du, the territory he left is less than one-third of what he used to be, and it is in danger.
Thinking about how to turn the situation around has already made him anxious.
Not to mention, he himself was not dealing with Qin Yin, how could he dare to go to Qin Yin's territory alone and do the act of looking for death.
Contrarily.
Liu Bei received the invitation, and although he did not go in person, he sent a delegation of dozens of envoys to go.
And Liu Bei was also afraid that Qin Yin would invite them to go, he wanted to catch them all, and he didn't dare to go alone, and now it was not like in the past, he wouldn't take risks.
He's an ambitious man.
Otherwise, he would not have waved his troops to conquer the land of Youzhou.
Not long ago, he and Yuan Shao were still allies, but when Yuan Shao was in crisis, he did not hesitate to stab him, which was also a relatively fatal one.
For Qin Yin.
He also has a lot of emotion.
Before Qin Yin gained power, the relationship between him and Qin Yin was not very good, but it was not bad, but it was a pity....
After all, he is not willing to be left behind, and with the power he has now, the ambition in his heart is even greater.
One way or another.
The invitation letters sent by Qin Yin to the hands of the princes also had corresponding answers.
Each has its own decision.
And the matter of Chang'an.
It has not affected the actions of the princes of the Central Plains, what should be attacked is still attacking, the Central Plains is still chaotic, and there are not too many changes.
The only thing that has changed is that the Qin army has stopped the pace of expansion.
