Chapter 72 I have no choice but to endure for a while
Does Cao Pi really want to attack Zhang Yi? Of course not. He had just been taken by Cao Cao's side, and he didn't know how to lead troops to fight at all, how could he lead troops to fight?
So why did he say that? Of course, it was to leave a good impression on Cao Cao. Hu You is his person, regardless of whether Hu You is guilty or not, his father killed him, and he must not like Hu You.
He must dissociate himself from Hu You, so as not to anger his father with him. That's why he wants to go to Zhang Yi, the more beautiful the words, the better, and the anger of his father can be eliminated.
Sure enough, Cao Cao's face looked a lot better when he heard his words, but he still reprimanded: "Nonsense! That Zhang Yi can be regarded as a strong general, how can you deal with a person who is not familiar with military affairs? ”
"Father, how can you increase the morale of others and destroy your own prestige?" Cao Pi has to continue to pretend.
"That's it! Retire! Cao Cao waved his hand and said.
Cao Pi was "unwillingly" standing aside.
At the time when the two fathers and sons were talking, Cao Ying's generals and strategists basically arrived. Cao Cao asked Zhang Yi to read Zhang Yi's recital to everyone, and everyone had different expressions after listening to it.
There are those who are resentful, those who have doubts, and those who are in ......
Xiahoudun was short-tempered, he came out and said: "This Zhang Yi is indeed bold, please allow me to lead the army to fight." ”
As soon as Xiahoudun said this, many generals immediately stood up in support. They were also all angry with Zhang Yi's performance, and naturally wanted to send troops to teach Zhang Yi a lesson.
"Calm the anger of the generals!" Strategist Guo Jia walked out and said, "Now that Yuan Shao's army is pressing, our army wants to crusade against Zhang Yi, and there are no soldiers to send. ”
"Then watch him be arrogant?" Xiahoudun asked.
"Of course not!" Guo Jia said: "Since Zhang Yi rushed to Lujiang County at this time, he must have planned it a long time ago, and this matter must be considered in the long run." ”
Cao Cao asked with a calm face, "What is Fengxiao's plan?" ”
"Three Tigers Snatch Food!" Guo Jia said: "Zhang Yi's attack on Lujiang is intended to be in Jiangdong!" Jiangdong Sun Ce was newly mourned, and his younger brother Sun Quan was not stable. However, the Sun family has deep roots in Jiangdong and is not comparable to Zhang Yi. Drive the two to fight, then the southeast can be safe! ”
Cao Pi was stunned for a moment and asked, "Zhang Yi and Sun Quan are the two tigers, who is the third tiger?" ”
"Jingzhou Liu Biao is also!" Guo Jia said: "Liu Jingsheng is not greedy for Yuzhang for a day or two, he sent people to attack Yuzhang before, but was blocked by Sun Ben. I don't think Liu Biao will be reconciled, and he always wants to intervene again. ”
When Cao Cao heard this, he immediately understood: "I know the words of filial piety. Let Zhang Yi and Sun Quan fight, if one side is weak, it will be Liu Jingsheng who will send troops, so that the two will be evenly matched and consume each other. ”
"The lord is wise!" Guo Jia smiled and patted Cao Cao's ass.
The others only reacted at this time, and hurriedly complimented Cao Cao.
Cao Cao smiled and shook his head, "Don't be spoiled by filial piety." ”
Everyone laughed, Cao Pi was slightly puzzled, and asked Cao Cao: "Father, what should I do with Zhang Yi's recital?" ”
Cao Cao's face was gloomy, obviously not fully accepting Zhang Yi's "rebellion", but he soon laughed again, "Since Zhang Yi wants an official position, then give it to him." I want to show Zhang Yi as the general of Zhendong, lead the Yangzhou pastor, and become the marquis. ”
Cao Pi was even more puzzled, and he wanted to ask again, but was interrupted by Cao Cao waving his hand. "Cousin Sun Quan is the general of Zhennan, leading the history of Yangzhou and sealing the Marquis of Wucheng."
"Great goodness!" The strategists were amazed.
Cao Pi also thought that according to the Han system, the state pastor and the assassin were not allowed to exist at the same time. A state pastor can't have a history of thorns, and if you have a history of thorns, you can't have a state pastor, now Zhang Yi is a Yangzhou pastor, and Sun Quan is a Yangzhou thorn history, this is forcing the two of them to fight, and they can't fight if they don't want to!
After the crowd dispersed, Cao Pi stayed.
When Cao Cao saw that Cao Pi hadn't left, he knew that the kid hadn't figured it out yet. So he said earnestly: "Do you know why my father wants to make a wish to Zhang Yi as an official?" ”
Cao Pi said: "It should be to appease Zhang Yi!" Now that our army has dealt with Yuan Shao, it has done everything it has, and if Zhang Yi is not appeased, he may attack Xuchang. ”
After Cao Cao listened, he nodded, "That's true, Yuan Shao is powerful, and his father has to work hard to deal with it, and if he is not careful, he will be doomed." Moreover, our army is now short of food, if there is no dried meat from Dongjun that Cheng Yu gets, our army may have run out of food. ”
As soon as Cao Pi heard Cao Cao say the word dried meat, he felt a little disgusted. He said from others that these dried meat may be made of human flesh (the fact is that it is made of human flesh, Cheng Yu plundered his hometown and made many people into dried meat and dedicated them to Cao Cao as military food, which is clearly recorded in the history books. When Cao Pi first ate, he was very uncomfortable, if there was really no food, he would definitely not have eaten it.
When Cao Cao saw Cao Pi's appearance, he knew what was going on, and he said to Cao Pi: "You should have heard about the origin of these dried meat, but don't blame Zhongde for this, he can't help it." Being able to do such a thing is enough to prove your loyalty. If Zhang Yi hadn't secretly hidden the grain, our army would not have run out of food now. ”
After Cao Pi heard this, he became even more resentful of Zhang Yi. He suddenly thought of something and said to Cao Cao: "Father, Hu You told me a guess before. ”
"What speculation?" Cao Cao frowned and asked, he hated the name that came out of Cao Pi's mouth.
Cao Pi approached Cao Cao's side and said, "Hu You said that when Wancheng was in the past, it was a burly masked man who shot the eldest brother and General Dian. ”
Cao Cao looked at Cao Pi in surprise, "What's the matter?" ”
"That night, many people saw a masked man with a crossbow. Afterwards, when Hu You collected the remains of his eldest brother and General Dian, he saw that the arrows on their vital points were much shorter than the other arrows, and they should have been shot from the crossbow. ”
"Afterwards, I also asked a lot of people, and they all said that they had seen the masked man, many people had heard his voice, and they had seen his military badge, and he was a general!"
Cao Cao followed Cao Pi's narration and slowly remembered that when the masked man came that day, he seemed to see the figure in the darkness.
Cao Pi continued: "And at that time, Zhang Yi was a general! ”
"Boom!" Cao Cao's head seemed to explode, and he gradually overlapped the figures of Zhang Yi and the masked man, and found that they were really similar! Could it be that the masked man who killed his son and Dian Wei was really Zhang Yi? Perhaps this can explain why Zhang Yi rebelled for no reason? He's a thief!
"Zhang Yi! Zhang Ziguo! Cao Cao gritted his teeth and looked to the southeast, where he killed his son and enemy.
After a long time, Cao Cao sighed, he really had no way to deal with Zhang Yi now, so he could only make Zhang Yi proud for a while.
