Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
It has been almost a year since the establishment of the new dynasty of the Han Dynasty, and it has been almost a year since the beginning of the ruins to be rebuilt, and now it has finally barely reached a certain scale
Now, looking at the entire Han Dynasty, it may be that in addition to Dong Zhuo's old Han court, it is Liu Yi's new Han Dynasty that has the most complete political institutions, such as Liu Biao in Jingzhou, Caozhou in Caozhou, Yuan Shao in Jizhou, and Gongsun Zan in Youzhou
Of course, their status as only one of the princes limited them, making it impossible for them to build as much as Liu Yi did, and openly get some political institutions out, all they could do was to exercise autonomy over the territory like ordinary officials of a place
The question in Liu Yi's heart was mainly why Cao Cao sent Xun You at this time, and what was Cao Cao's real purpose
Liu Yi said to Xun Yu under the hall: "Mr. Gongda, to be honest, Cao Gong and Zaixia, no enemy or friend, of course, there have been several conflicts, but, as Cao Gong said in this letter, he and Zai Xia are enemies, in fact, he is not led by him, before, he was ordered by others, and now, he said that as a Han Chen, he will issue the emperor's blood call to the world because he is loyal to the Han Dynasty, and order the princes of the world to crusade against Zaixia, but basically, Cao Gong and Zaixia, in fact, there is not much of a festival, between each other, There is really no reason for you to live or die, naturally, this may be temporary, but now, Cao Gong and Liu, there is no need to have any intersection, and there is no need to send Mr. to explain anything."
When Liu Yi said this, he raised the letter written in cloth silk in his hand, and took a deep look at Xun Yu and said: "Like Cao Gong's current letter, it is neither in the name of a courtier to come to worship the court, nor does it clearly express a certain meaning, even if it is to prepare to establish diplomatic relations with the New Han Dynasty, but this is just to explain the fact that he issued the emperor's blood summons, I don't know what Cao Gong means?" Is it a warning? Or what? Please also ask Mr. Gongda to give me the following answers."
Now, there are so many envoys suddenly, basically, their meaning is very clear that they have seen that Liu Yi's current power has increased greatly, and there is a young emperor, so that Liu Yi can justifiably set up a court in Luoyang, so they all sent people to befriend Liu Yi In addition, Luoyang is the Kyoto of the Han Dynasty, and Liu Yi supported the young emperor as the emperor in Luoyang, and the general trend has been achieved, and the princes of all parts of the world have to face up to this Han court. It is impossible to treat Liu Yi like when the power was weak when it was just established, no matter what the purpose is, it is necessary for those princes to send people to come, they either want to make friends with Liu Yi, or they want to curry favor, but few will be like Cao Cao, ambiguous
"Warning?" Xun You said with a non-arrogant expression: "No, no, no, Taifu, the reason why Cao Gong sent Xun as a messenger is nothing more than to express two meanings to Taifu."
"Oh? Then please Mr. Gongda to say directly," Liu Yi pretended to be very interested and asked
"First, it is to tell Taifu that Cao Gong has no intention of making enemies with Taifu to eliminate the Cao Guild, which Taifu does not use, really sent troops to attack Taifu and issue the emperor's blood summons to the world, which has come to an end."
"Second," Xun You then said: "Cao Gong is to show that a Lichao Taifu supports the young emperor as the emperor, and it is always difficult to confirm whether the Taifu is really a real virtuous minister, whether he is sincerely loyal to the Han family, and whether he harbors evil intentions, so Cao Gong can't return to the rule of the Han court without confirming whether the Taifu is dedicated to the Han Dynasty, and he will stay to denounce the Taifu and assist the emperor's power, and now there is a Han court in Chang'an, who can officially represent the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty, this is not sure for a while, so, Now, Cao Gong is only with the identity of the chief official of one party, and he has come to discuss with Taifu how to confirm the two Han courts, and which one can represent the orthodoxy of the Han family."
"Haha, Mr. Gongda, don't you think what you're saying is ridiculous?" After hearing this, Liu Yi laughed and said: "The first point that Gongda said is already ridiculous."
"Huh?" Xun You shrugged, looked indifferent, and said lightly: "Ridiculous? What does Taifu think? If it doesn't come to an end, could it be that Taifu is ready to use troops against us in Yanzhou? ”
"What about soldiers? Not to mention whether I, Liu Yi, represent the New Han Dynasty, even if it is an ordinary prince, Cao Cao is so blatantly provoking, who will be able to endure this breath? You say Cao Cao didn't really send troops to fight me? How to explain the battle at Bishui Pass? Liu Yi looked at Xun You coldly
Liu Yi admires the talents of the Xun family in his heart, but now Xun You, each is his master, it is still okay to pinch him, of course, seeing Xun Wenruo, Xun Shuang, Xun Chen and others, Liu Yi will not really embarrass Xun You
"Don't you know? If Cao Gong really wants to decide to denounce Taifu, it won't just be the tens of thousands of troops attacking Bishui Pass, if Cao Gong really wants to be the enemy of Taifu, then he will do his best at that time, and attack Taifu when he is fighting with hundreds of thousands of Xiongnu cavalry in Bingzhou, in that way, Taifu can easily deal with the Xiongnu army? Just looking at this, Taifu should understand that Cao Gong did not really make enemies of Taifu
"Hmph, if he Cao Cao dares to stick a knife in the back when I Liu Yi fights against the alien race, then he is the sinner of the Han nation, he doesn't want to attack Liu, but he doesn't dare to risk the world's disapproval, in addition, he has hundreds of thousands of Qingzhou troops, I'm afraid they haven't been reorganized yet, and they can form combat effectiveness when they are full of troops? Can you capture the Tiger Prison Pass of Bishui Pass? Liu Yi snorted coldly and said: "He Cao Cao doesn't dare to bear this infamy, and he doesn't have the strength to threaten Luoyang."
"Haha......" After hearing what Liu Yi said, Xun You laughed loudly: "Taifu Ai, you are too taken for granted"
"Isn't that so? Mr. Fei Gongda, do you still think that our New Han Dynasty defeated the Huns, and because of Cao Cao's mercy, we can achieve victory? Liu Yi said patiently
"Taifu doesn't know the truth of becoming a king and defeating a villain? Haven't you heard Cao Gongning teach me to bear the world, not to teach the world to bear my business? Is the Cao Guild afraid of such infamy? If Cao Gong really wants to raise an army to attack Taifu, as long as he defeats Taifu, what about carrying this infamy? You know, as long as Taifu is defeated, what is the point of what Taifu says? Xun You said: "That's right, Cao Gongxin's hundreds of thousands of Qingzhou soldiers have not yet formed a real combat effectiveness, but if he really attacks Taifu with all his might, I'm afraid he will definitely be able to kill Luoyang, right?" At that time, Taifu had to face our Cao Gong's army and deal with the Xiongnu army, and it really reached that situation, and other princes in the world couldn't afford to attack Taifu together? ”
"Uh......" Liu Yi thought about it, and it seemed that this was really the case
There are only thirty or forty thousand troops and horses in his Bishui Pass and Tiger Prison Pass, if Cao Cao really does not care about a large army, Ren Wenchou Li Ling may not be able to hold the south gate of Luoyang Once Cao Cao is killed under Luoyang City, then the princes of the world will definitely fall into the well and send troops together, and at that time he is indeed very likely to fall into a situation from which he will never recover
In fact, when the princes of the world crusaded against Dong Zhuo, it was not that the princes of the world could not defeat Dong Zhuo, nor that the forces of the princes of the world were insufficient, but that the heroes of the world were not united enough, not only did they not work together, but they also calculated each other, so that the allied forces of the world and Dong Zhuo held each other for so long If Cao Cao sent hundreds of thousands of troops, only Cao Cao had an army, and the upper and lower levels were united, it would be lighter and easier to break through the Bishui Pass and the Tiger Prison Pass
"I also made it clear, Cao Gong at that time, did not have a large army, there is indeed a problem that the sergeants have not really formed combat effectiveness, and the most important thing, Cao Gong did not take Taifu as the biggest opponent, Cao Gong's opponent is Yuan Shao Yanzhou, bordering Jizhou and Yuan Shao's momentum, now not under Taifu, I believe that he will not be satisfied with Jizhou, once the victory or defeat is separated from Gongsun Zan of Youzhou Yuan Shao is bound to covet Yanzhou, so, compared to the New Han Dynasty and Yuan Shao, or Yuan Shao is a greater threat to Cao Gong" Xun You said: "This is also the reason why Cao Gong still didn't really attack Taifu with all his strength in the end."
Liu Yi sighed for a moment and said calmly: "Xing, the people are bitter; Death, the people are suffering at present, whether it is the New Han Dynasty or Cao Cao, or Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shao, there must be a period of time to recuperate, so if Cao Cao sends Mr. Gongda to negotiate peace and discuss that the two families do not fight with troops, this can be considered, and I, Liu Yi, have no intention of using troops against Cao Cao, so Mr. Gongda can rest assured"
"It's good that Taifu can think like this" Xun You looked at Liu Yi with blazing eyes: "Xun's heart is also a loyal minister who can match his words and deeds, and is a loyal minister who is really for the people of the Han Dynasty."
"Haha, this is easy to say, then, let's talk about the second point you said now" Liu Yi's eyes narrowed, and said: "Since Cao Cao suspects that I, Liu Yi, have a heart of disobedience, and I want to prove whether Liu is a loyal minister before he is willing to recognize the legitimacy of the New Han Court, then, Cao Cao himself regards himself as a loyal minister, so how can he prove that he is a loyal minister?" Now, the emperor is in Luoyang, why doesn't he Cao Cao come to worship in person? As long as he enters the court, Liu will show the emperor Cao Cao's talents, and he will definitely reuse him, so that Cao Cao will definitely be able to apply what he has learned and show his talents."
Xun You hugged his fists at Liu Yi and said calmly: "Then why don't you let the young emperor visit Xuchang and inspect the people of Yingchuan?" As long as the young emperor arrives in Xuchang, Cao Gong will definitely respect the young emperor with the courtesy of a courtier."
Liu Yi was a little angry in his heart, looked at Xun You, interrupted him and said, "Mr. Gongda, don't you think you are a little strong-worded?" Since Cao Cao regarded himself as a Han minister, then he came to the Han court to worship, it was a matter of course, where would there be a reason for the emperor to leave the capital to see him in a different place? He Cao Cao is now self-reliant and loyal, which is really ridiculous, right? Mr. Nagongda, you said, he is now sending you as a messenger, what is his identity to meet and discuss matters with Liu? ”
"Taifu, the Ming people don't say secret words, at present, who is not supporting the army and standing on his own? Who is truly obedient to the New Han Court? Xun You said: "Cao Gong is doing things openly now, and he is more upright than ordinary princes, Cao Gong feels that although he and Taifu may not be able to form a formal alliance now, in many places, the two sides can still cooperate with each other, and cooperation is mutually beneficial."
"Then let's make it clear, what is the ultimate purpose of Cao Cao sending Gongda?" Lewy also stopped talking nonsense
"Cao Gong wants to agree with Taifu that for a period of three years, we will not send troops to fight each other, and we will not drag each other back, and after three years, Cao Gong will seize Jizhou, and Taifu will seize Jingzhou, and we will not interfere with each other, of course, if Taifu wants to cooperate further, the two of us can also work together" Xun You looked at Liu Yidao seriously
"That's what Cao Cao's ultimate goal is?"
"Yes, otherwise what does Taifu think?" Xun Yu squinted
"Gongda! It's really you."
At this moment, Xun Wenruo and Xun Shuang walked in from outside the hall
"Uncle Ai, uncle......" Xun You saw the two of them stunned for a moment, and gave a salute to the two, but immediately put on a straight face and said with a serious face: "Now that a certain is the messenger of Cao Gong, it is inconvenient to say anything, please wait for Wen Ruociming and the two of you, and talk about it in the evening."
Xun Yu's age is older than Xun Yu's shoes, but he is Xun Yu's uncle, and as for Xun Shuang, he is Xun You's uncle
The Xun family has always had the practice of not putting eggs in the same blue, so like now, there are still more opportunities for a family to meet for its master
Xun Yu and Xun Shuang didn't have anything because of Xun You's attitude, they each nodded, stepped aside, and listened to Xun You and Liu Yi's conversation
Liu Yi also arched his hand to the two ministers, and then said to Xun You: "To be honest, what Mr. Gongda said, in fact, there is some redundancy with Cao Cao, there is no possibility of joining forces, everyone will only acquiesce, and there is no need to put Cao Cao on the bright side as a Hanchen, and there is no qualification to say anything He takes Jizhou and I take Jingzhou, he said this, it proves that he has a heart of disobedience."
"The meaning of Cao Gong is very clear in the second point, Cao Gong is a Han minister, and he can only be determined, which Han court in Luoyang and Chang'an can represent the orthodoxy of the Han family, then Cao Gong will definitely return to the imperial court, and the reason why he wants to capture Jizhou is just that Cao Gong can't see the disasters of the people of Jizhou for many years, and he wants to obtain his land and govern the local people.
"Haha" Xun Shuang interjected at this time: "Gongda, what you say is really a little speechless, why do you say that Cao Cao is a loyal minister?" How can it be said that Jizhou can be well governed in the hands of Cao Gong, but it cannot be governed in the hands of Yuan Shao? I think you should stay in Luoyang and have a good look, see how our people in Luoyang are now, it is said that in the future, Jizhou will be better for us to govern the new Han Dynasty."
"What kind of person is Gongda Ai Cao Cao, haven't you seen it yet? Back then, Xu Zhao Xu Zijiang commented on him, saying that he was a capable minister who governed the world and a traitor in troubled times, and now, his heroic nature has been fully revealed, and the matter of Lu Bohao's family is enough to prove how he is public, why do you bother to do things for Cao Cao? It's better to stay in the court and do things for the New Han Dynasty, with Gongda's talent, he can be one of the three princes, what do you think? Xun Yu also said
"If Gongda can serve the New Han Dynasty, I, Liu Yi, will naturally welcome it, don't say that the position of the third prince is over, what if this Taifu is given to Gongda to do it?" If Liu Yi didn't want to subdue Xun You, how could he talk to him so much? Now that Xun Yu and Xun Shuang are here, it is better for them to hand out an olive branch to Xun Yu
"Taifu Xie, however, Xun is now working under Cao Gong's account, and Cao Gong treats him as if he already knows it, and it is impossible to vote for him again, so Taifu's kindness is received in my heart" Xun You didn't have a little heart, and said indifferently
Like these famous strategists, they are all very stubborn guys, once they choose the master, it will not be easy to poach the corner For Xun You's refusal, Liu Yi was mentally prepared
In fact, Liu Yi was able to get the effectiveness of the four major military divisions, and they were all not lucky, and they all got it before they chose their masters
Like Xi Zhicai, he shouldn't have known Cao Cao at that time, and he even coaxed and deceived him to get him As for Jia Xu, it was by chance that he would automatically come to the door, if he voted for Dong Zhuo first, then Liu Yi would not have gotten him so smoothly
And Xun Yu, if he hadn't been with him for so long, so that he slowly surrendered to Liu Yi, then it would not be easy to get him, in order to get him, Liu Yi also went to Xun's house in person, and only then officially took Xun Yu under his account, as for Guo Jia, it was completely the efforts of Xi Zhicai, Xun Yu and others, and it was really Liu Yi who went to find Guo Jia himself, if they didn't have the hard work they did in the early stage, I am afraid that Guo Jia may not be willing to use it for himself
Therefore, for Xun You, Liu Yi actually did not have too many illusions
"Mr. Gongda, otherwise, let's talk about it here this time, you go back to tell Cao Cao, there is no need to make a contract, but I can make it clear that in the next two or three years, I can not send troops, and don't bother me with him, if he really wants to send troops to Luoyang, then I will be embarrassed, I will definitely mobilize the army to fight him to the death" Liu Yi said with sharp eyes
Since Xun You is now loyal to Cao Cao, then he will definitely stand in Cao Cao's position and speak, no matter how much he is afraid, it will be difficult to ask Cao Cao's true purpose of sending Xun You to see him, so if you want to know the conspiracy behind Cao Cao, you have to figure it out yourself, but Cao Cao's apparent purpose seems to have been obtained, and he has been promised by Liu Yi not to attack him in the next two or three years
