84_84334 After Liu Qi obtained Luoyang, he ordered people to blockade the palace, but he opened the palace in Cao Cao's prime minister's mansion, and at the same time placed hundreds of civil and military officials, and made a list of people, and after the situation stabilized slightly, he discussed with Jia Xu, Xun Yu, Pang Tong and others about crossing the river to pursue Cao Cao and rescue the Son of Heaven.

But I didn't expect to be opposed by Jia Xu as soon as I came up.

I only heard Jia Xu bow slightly, and then said: "Lord, now that Cao Cao has arrived in Hebei, our army is afraid that it will not be able to catch up, not to mention that our army has been exhausted after days of fighting, and now we have Luoyang, we should focus on appeasing the people's hearts and recuperating, even if we want to fight, we should not cross the river to take Hebei, but should find a way to take Hedong or Yanzhou, because Hedong or Yanzhou are relatively close to us, and the supply is much more convenient, but if we take Yecheng, it will be we to give up our advantage and fight alone in the interior of the enemy's army. Not only is the supply inconvenient, but it is easier to be besieged by the enemy's superior forces, which↖is a taboo for soldiers, and the lord must think twice. ”

Liu Qi frowned slightly, and said unhappily: "Don't we have Gan Xingba's water army?" What's more, it's not just Xingba? Whether it is Zhou Gongjin or Lu Ziming, they are all experts in water warfare, as long as we send them to lead the army to cross the river, who can stop them? When the time comes, we will have the right to control the water, as long as we find a random place to land and fight, and launch a surprise attack, won't the land of Hebei be decided? ”

But he saw Jia Xu and said: "Weichen admits that whether it is Gongjin, Ziming, or Xingba, they are all experts in water warfare, and all the elite soldiers in Danyang live by the river and are proficient in water, so in terms of water warfare, our army is absolutely invincible in the world, but the river is different from the river, and the river is wide." It is conducive to the accumulation and collision of large-scale fleets, but the river is narrow, the big ships cannot walk at all, there are a large number of tidal flats and sediment in the water, and many tactics in the river cannot be copied. Even if we control the river, it won't have much effect, because the Wei army's defense focus is on the ports, as long as they stick to those key ports, we are helpless, unless we have several times or even ten times the strength, according to Weichen's opinion, we might as well rest and recuperate for a few years first, and wait until the army has enough strength and mobilizes enough supplies. Then take Hebei in one go. ”

"But I finally had the opportunity to welcome back the Son of Heaven, how could I just give up? As long as the Son of Heaven can be returned, Cao Cao will become a traitor who is spurned by everyone, and this king will raise the loyal people of the world again, and participate in the righteous deeds, and it is easy to eliminate the Cao thief, so that the world will be peaceful again. The people will no longer suffer from war, and this king will be worthy of those who are in peace again. The vast number of soldiers who are plotting for the prosperity of the Han Dynasty. Liu Qi's voice revealed a hint of heaviness, sighed softly, and said with a worried face.

Jia Xu said with a straight face: "King, it's not that Weichen is rude, it's really Weichen who has to be reminded that the king is really a little impatient now." The so-called hundred-legged insect, dead but not stiff, now Cao Wei is indeed in decline, but it is by no means without resistance, although the strength of the lord is strong. Although the territory is vast, due to years of war, countless wealth has been consumed in war, and our people are only slightly stronger than the people of Wei. So we did not achieve an absolute advantage over the Wei State, now that our military has won the Central Plains, we should consolidate the rule and restore the development of production as the first priority, and should not be so impatient to attack Hebei, otherwise, Weichen is afraid that the king will suffer a setback, and sometimes there is only one opportunity, once the king is defeated, Weichen is afraid that the king will no longer have the conditions to unify Hebei for a long time. ”

Liu Qi was suddenly shocked when he heard this, because in the history he knew, Tian Feng before the Battle of Guandu also advised Yuan Shao in this way, but Yuan Shao did not listen, and the Battle of Guandu was defeated and returned, but Cao Cao occupied Hebei; In addition, Jia Xu before the Battle of Chibi used to persuade Cao Cao in this way, but Cao Cao did not listen, and the guide was defeated and returned, losing the opportunity to unify the world. Isn't he also following the old path of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao now? This is definitely a very dangerous signal for yourself.

Therefore, Liu Qi hurriedly changed his face and thanked him, and said apologetically to Jia Xu: "Wen He is right, it was all this king who was in a hurry, and this golden and jade good words really made this king like seeing the sun through the clouds. We should indeed stabilize the newly acquired Yuzhou and Luoyang places first, and we should first appease the people, and then take Hebei in one go when the strength is strong enough. ”

After giving up the matter of Hebei, Liu Qi withdrew his attendants, leaving only Xun Yu, Pang Tong and Jia Xu, and then asked in a deep voice: "Wenhe, tell me the truth, did you deduce that he wanted to move the capital to Yecheng long before Cao Cao retreated to Hebei?" ”

Jia Xu glanced at Pang Tong and Xun Yu, then nodded and said: "The lord expected it to be good, Weichen has indeed guessed it, after all, Sima Yi is not an ordinary person, plus Cao Cao has a Cheng Zhongde by his side, this person's wisdom is not under Weichen, he can definitely consider the shape that Cao Cao is facing, with his wisdom, he can definitely think of deliberately abandoning Xi Xian, let us execute him as the real murderer who killed Queen Fu and the prince, so as to calm the anger of the king and the loyal ministers and righteous people in the world, Then pass Guò to move the capital to Luoyang to the king, and then pass the edict of the Son of Heaven to soothe, so as to give the king a step, so that the king will not have the idea of conquering Hebei. ”

"In that case, why don't you tell the king earlier?" Liu Qi couldn't help but feel a little angry when he heard Jia Xu's words, and said sharply.

Jia Xu's face remained unchanged, and he still bowed down and said, "Even if Weichen sues the king, what should the king do?" Concentrate all your strength and break through Yique Pass at any cost, and then come to Luoyang City, besiege Cao Cao, and ask him for the Son of Heaven? ”

Liu Qi was stunned when he heard this, and then said: "Exactly, this king has not rescued the Son of Heaven from the demon cave of Cao Thief for so many years under the banner of respecting the Son of Heaven, and now it is easy to seize the opportunity, how can he give up lightly?" It's okay now, this king and the Son of Heaven missed each other, and lost the best opportunity to fight Cao Cao, I don't know how many more young people can save the Son of Heaven from fire and water? ”

After saying that, he sighed again and again.

But he saw Jia Xu Zhengse and said: "Could it be that until now, the king still wants to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes like Cao Cao?" Can the king know that this strategy is actually not conducive to the king's great cause? ”

"What? Tell me why? Hearing Jia Xu's straightforward words, Liu Qi couldn't help but be shocked, and then blurted out. After I was shocked, I realized that as soon as the words came out, it was impossible to take them back. I had to look at Xun Yu with a little shame, and then waited for Jia Xu to answer.

In Liu Qi's opinion, Jia Xu and Pang Tong are his old subordinates, they are naturally absolute henchmen, they fully understand their minds, and they don't have to hide anything from them at all. But Xun Yu is relatively an outsider, not to mention that he was suspicious of Cao Cao because he was loyal to the Han Dynasty and prevented Cao Cao from becoming a prince, and was finally assigned to the Shouchun front, if it weren't for himself, I'm afraid he would have died of depression a long time ago, if such a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty heard that he was as ambitious as Cao Cao, what kind of fierce reaction would he have?

Although he has now unified Yuzhou, he still wants to win over the Yingchuan Xun clan, and there is no need to cause their dissatisfaction for an unrealized plan. So Liu Qi desperately glanced at Jia Xu, suggesting that he should not take this topic.

But Jia Xu didn't seem to see it, and said slowly: "When the lord was still weak, he coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes to still have a certain political advantage, after all, you are playing the banner of the Son of Heaven, but the lord has the identity of the Han family, which can make up for this disadvantage a little, and it is precisely because of this." The lord has deep hopes for the world and has been able to grow and develop step by step. In the end, he became the most powerful prince in the world, even much stronger than Cao Cao, who coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes. However, now, coercing the Son of Heaven to make the princes not only unable to help the development of the lord, but even have a certain hindrance effect. ”

Looking at Liu Qi's puzzled eyes, Jia Xu smiled faintly and continued: "If the Son of Heaven is in the hands of the lord. How should the Son of Heaven be treated? Is it a sincere handing over of the military and political power, or is it just a puppet like Cao Cao, if it is the former, will the powerful Son of Heaven in the future be jealous of the lord's former king? I am afraid that in the future, the ending of the lord will definitely not end well because of the suspicion of the Son of Heaven, and I want to come to the lord even if it is for the sake of his wife and children. You wouldn't do such a pedantic thing, would you? What's more, even if the lord really did this, it would definitely disappoint the military ministers under his command, and the foundation created by the lord's father and son in the past 20 years would probably fall apart and the world would fall into war again. ”

"Hmph, although this king is loyal to the Han Dynasty, he will not do stupid things to dig his own grave, not to mention that it is also about the stability of the world and the happiness of all the people. Liu Qi was forced to do this, although he guarded Xun Yu, an outsider, he couldn't help but tell the truth, but his tone was a little unhappy.

Jia Xu still didn't seem to see it, and continued to smile and said: "In this case, presumably the Lord Guild has taken the latter measure, but if the Lord Lord does that, what is the difference between it and Cao Cao?" will also be insulted and criticized by the so-called loyal people in the world for bullying the Son of Heaven. Even if the status of the Son of Heaven improves, even if the lord really respects the Son of Heaven, and even returns all major events such as temple sacrifices to the Son of Heaven, and never does anything that hurts the dignity of the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven will still not be satisfied, because this is human nature, human nature that is not satisfied, and the ministers will definitely have someone standing in the position of the Son of Heaven and scolding the lord for being disloyal. ”

After a slight pause, Jia Xu said slowly: "Even if this qiē lord can be suppressed with his great prestige and kindness to the Son of Heaven, what about after the lord determines the world?" What should the lord do to keep his ministers from disappointing? Only one way to become the emperor, right? But the lord respects the Son of Heaven all his life, if he is called the emperor, it is tantamount to slapping himself in the face, but if he is not called the emperor, will the ministers be disappointed? Cao Cao accepted Xun Wen Ruoying's construction of the Son of Heaven, although he unified the north, but he could not be called the emperor like Yuan Shu, and had no choice but to say that he wanted to be the king of Zhou Wen, and it was precisely because of this that he was dissatisfied with Xun Wenruo, and later called the public king under full of resentment, but he was opposed by Wen Ruo again, so he was deposed in anger. ”

Liu Qi was shocked when he heard this, because he really didn't think about what Jia Xu said, he took a deep look at Xun Yu, and saw Xun Yu's calm expression, he couldn't help but be surprised in his heart, and hurriedly asked: "Wen Ruo, I don't know what you think of Jia Xiangguo's words?" (To be continued......).
