285 The treacherous and cunning Cao Cao
"Father, what do you say? We just watched Liu Yuetian and Liu Che, the two children, continue to grow bigger? When that happens, we will be the first to suffer. ”
Cao Pi said loudly.
"Cao Pi, I heard that the Qin army has moved, I don't know if it's true or not."
Cao Cao changed the subject and asked about Qin Jun.
"That's right, Ying Zheng sent 70,000 troops to leave Luntai, it should be heading for Shangjun, our spies are still probing, if this news is confirmed, then the Qin army is ready to attack Hongnong, after all, Liu Yuetian has targeted Daqin five times, this breath Ying Zheng will definitely not swallow, so this is a good time for us to capture Luoyang!"
Cao Pi replied.
"100,000 Qin soldiers attack Hongnong, who do you think will win?"
Cao Cao looked at his subordinates and asked.
"Of course it's Qin Jun!"
Cao Pi replied.
"Oh! Tell me why? ”
"Hongnong only has more than 30,000 troops now, even if Anding and Tianshui add up, there are only more than 60,000 people, Liu Yuetian now adds up to less than 100,000 people, Liu Che may be able to transfer 50,000 horses from Chang'an, but the strength of these soldiers may be greatly discounted, and our spies in Dazang have also sent information, Gesar is also preparing, I guess it is likely that this time Tibet and Daqin will join forces to attack together, if so, we should not miss this opportunity."
"Haha, okay, Cao Pi, you can think of this, you have already proven your ability."
Cao Cao looked very pleased, but then said.
"However, Cao Pi, you have to remember one thing, now the world is in chaos, the princes of all parties are fighting each other, on the surface, we have a good relationship with the Tang Dynasty, that is because our strength is almost the same, no one can take advantage, but once our strength declines, the other party will immediately turn his face, and there is nothing wrong with swallowing us.
Therefore, in this troubled world, we must get 100% benefits from every battle and continue to strengthen ourselves......... If we attack Luoyang, the Qing Dynasty will inevitably send troops to attack our rear road, and even if Luoyang is captured by us, it may not be able to take advantage, and it will even endanger our foundation. ”
Cao Cao broke the key to it.
"Father, you are right, it is the son's mind that is simple, but this is indeed a great opportunity, are we so missed?"
Cao Pi asked again.
"Missed? Of course, you can't miss it, I have long seen that Nurhachi of the Great Qing Dynasty is not pleasing to my eyes, and this time I will destroy them! ”
Cao Cao, who was still listless, suddenly shot a light in his eyes, causing all the courtiers below to tremble.
"Eliminate the Qing .........?"
Cao Pi was stunned, he was sure to defeat Zu Ti, but in the Qing Dynasty, he was not sure, and even in his heart he felt that the other party was slightly stronger than his own Great Wei, even if the strength of the two sides was almost the same, it would be a protracted battle, and in the end, he might not be able to bargain for anything.
Not only Cao Pi was puzzled, but the officials below were also puzzled.
"Sima Yi, what do you think of my idea?"
Cao Cao didn't explain, just looked at one of the courtiers below and asked.
A man in his forties hurriedly stepped forward, bowed first, and then continued.
"Lord Qiqi, if we attack the Qing Dynasty, then Zu Ti will definitely not take away our back road, but will make him unscrupulous, and go directly to the aid of Liu Yuetian, then Liu Yuetian's strength will be greatly enhanced, and compared with the Qin soldiers, I am afraid that it will be almost the same, this big battle will be fought, I am afraid that you will have to fight to the death, and in the end, the victorious side is afraid that it will also be a group of remnants of the defeated army, and it will be vulnerable.
As for Dawu, they respect Confucianism and despise Nurhachi's barbarian people, and it is too late for him to be happy when we attack the Qing Dynasty, and he will definitely not take advantage of the danger of others, so he will never send troops to attack us, so we will do our best.
We are almost the same as the strength of the Qing Dynasty, if we fight hard, it is difficult to say who wins and who loses, but if we pull the Tang Dynasty......... Then the Qing Dynasty is in danger. ”
This Sima Yi replied softly.
"Haha, Zhong Daya, who knows me!"
Cao Cao stroked his beard and laughed.
Sima Yi's explanation made everyone suddenly realize.
That's right, if Great Wei attacks Zu Ti, then the Qing soldiers will definitely send troops, but on the other hand, if Great Wei attacks Da Qing, Zu Ti can rest assured that he will rush to the aid of Liu Yuetian, and at the same time, Da Wu will not send troops, which is a success.
Zu Ti sent troops to help Liu Yuetian, Liu Yuetian's strength will be greatly enhanced, and the 100,000 soldiers of the Shang Qin army may not be weak, the two sides will fight to the death, and it may not be known how much strength the victorious side can retain, which greatly consumes the strength of both sides, so this plan can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
Of course, Dawei himself can only be evenly matched against the Qing Dynasty at best, and can only pull the Tang Dynasty, if it is really a union between the two sides, then the Qing Dynasty will inevitably be defeated.
Now it seems that the United Datang is the key.
"Father, I am willing to go to the Tang Dynasty in person to let them send troops."
Cao Pi hurriedly stepped forward and asked Cao Cao for his life.
"Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry.........!"
Cao Cao waved his hand.
"Not in a hurry?"
Even Sima Yi was a little puzzled.
"Datang is now Li Shimin in charge, this son is the dragon and phoenix among the people, this time the situation in the world is in a delicate stage, he must also do something, attack Liu Yuetian, his ass will be bitten by the Qing Dynasty, even if the Qing Dynasty does not bite......... Hehe, I want to tear off a piece of meat too.
If I think correctly, now Li Shimin is afraid that he is also eyeing the Qing Dynasty and wants to jointly send troops with us, let's wait for him here! ”
Cao Cao was calm.
"Zhongda, do you know my intentions?"
Cao Cao looked at Sima Yi again and asked.
"Lord, our Wei Kingdom has been inherited for more than two hundred years, and the first generation of Wei King Mingren was the Taifu of the Great Zhou Dynasty, how many years has the Tang Dynasty been established? It's only a hundred years, and of course we can't compare with us in terms of qualifications, so Li Shimin should come to us to meet us, this is the rule. ”
Sima Yi replied.
"That's right, Sima Junshi is right, according to the seniority, Li Yuan should also call the lord uncle, Li Shimin is a grandchild, of course he is coming to us."
The others also chimed in, causing everyone to laugh.
Cao Cao also smiled and nodded when he heard this, as if he was satisfied with Sima Yi's answer.
Sima Yi smiled in agreement like the others, but he broke out in a cold sweat, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he looked at Cao Cao's appearance.
This Cao Cao is really a treacherous and cunning, of course Sima Yi guessed Cao Cao's purpose this time, and it was by no means as he said.
Although Li Shimin has the capital of the master, he is still too young after all, and he still can't be compared with Cao Cao, and the two sides have the same goal, so the attack on the Qing Dynasty is basically decided, but then how to distribute the fruits of victory? In front of the country, only interests are the most important, and every party has to pay to reap benefits.
As long as Li Shimin came to Dawei for help, the initiative would be in the hands of Dawei, whether it was negotiation or distribution of interests, Dawei had the upper hand, such a profound meaning, only Cao Cao could think of it, and even Cao Pi's gang still couldn't figure it out.
Of course, Sima Yi guessed what Cao Cao thought, but his face did not change in the slightest, he knew that although Cao Cao was eloquent, he was narrow-minded, and he was ruthless to those who were arrogant and arrogant, especially a meritorious man like himself, who was most afraid that after his death, these people would make trouble, if he answered this question directly, he was afraid that he would be unlucky in the future.
"It seems that from now on, it is better to pretend to be deaf and dumb."
In front of Cao Cao, even if Sima Yi has great ability, he can't make waves.
