Chapter 276: The Letter with Missing Contents
Cao Pi asked, "Zhong Da thinks who is the person who came up with this plan?" ”
Sima Yi replied: "It's hard to speculate, I think that Xun Wenruo, Yang Dezu, and Xun Gongda all have this talent." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Cao Pi said: "I didn't expect Zhongda to think so highly of Yang Dezu. ”
Sima Yi said: "The state pastor must not despise this person, the leader of the Hongnong Yang family, this person deserves it, compared to his father Yang Biao, this person has changed a lot, but this person loves to show his talent in front of others, and he is proud of his talents, and he is easy to be jealous of others, and he can use this to break this person in the future." ”
"What about Xun Wenruo and Xun Gongda?" Cao Pi asked.
Sima Yi said: "These two people are of good character, they can be said to be impeccable, and the two of them are in charge of Shangshutai, they are heavyweight figures, except for Sikong himself, no one can shake them." ”
Cao Pi said: "If this is the case, if you want to break the situation, I still have to know Yecheng to operate." ”
Sima Yi said: "It may not be Yecheng, as long as it is the Central Plains, but this Youzhou is absolutely not good, and the mountains and rivers of Yecheng are far away, and it is difficult to care." ”
Cao Pi said loudly when he heard this: "Ziwen's expedition to Liaodong vassal country, in the early winter, he should return to Tuyin to report on his work, and then let him talk about the pacification of Liaodong County, see where it goes, it should be appropriately accelerated, if there is no Liaodong County, the land of Youzhou is not enough to become my dark chess." ”
Sima Yi said: "There are still many Hu countries outside Liaodong, the population and land are very abundant, and there are Liaoshui and mountains to block it, which is a moat of its own, dividing Youzhou into two, and you can make Youzhou into two forces. ”
Cao Pi felt that it was very effortless to speak with a smart person like Sima Yi, so he said: "This matter still needs to be handled by Zhong Da and the person who oppresses you in the future, you are in the light, he is in the dark, and he will definitely be able to succeed." ”
Sima Yi arched his hand and said: "Obey the orders of the state pastor." ”
After the two discussed, Cao Pi immediately left Xu Wushan's manor and returned to Tuyin, just saw a cart of baggage transported out of the city, heading to the northeast, dressed in bright light armor, Wang Xiong, who was holding a spear, rode a Wuhuan horse with a team of infantry to escort behind, and saw the guards surrounding Cao Pi riding a horse, immediately stopped his horse, dismounted and saluted Cao Pi.
"Where is this going?" Cao Pi asked.
Wang Xiong replied: "Huizhou Mu, this batch of baggage is transported to the land of grain storage in Liaodong vassal countries, and it is dangerous to desecrate the city. ”
Although Cao Pi has not been to the subject country of Liaodong, but he has seen this place on the map of the state capital, the dangerous city is just like its name, the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is common for Cao Zhangxuan to store grain there.
"How much grain and grass is there now? Is it enough for the Gongsun clan to conquer Goguryeo? Cao Pi asked.
Wang Xiong replied: "There are still two trips to transport, and in the early winter, we should be able to store enough grain, and don't say that he will shoot the deputy general to guard the danger in the early winter, and return to the mound to inform the state pastor of the movement of Liaodong." ”
Cao Pi nodded, and then rode away with Wang Dayan and his party. After returning to the city, Cao Pi did not go to the state pastor's mansion, but directly entered the back house, handed Liu Fang to the study, and asked him to assist Tian Chou in dealing with Youzhou political affairs, and told him not to disturb himself if there was nothing important to do, and then returned to the backyard to practice swords, and in the following days, Cao Pi never went to the state pastor's mansion again, but occasionally looked at Lu Lingqi, and occasionally helped Xin Xianying solve some technical problems, otherwise he played chess with Zhen, and waited for the winter of the eleventh year of Jian'an.
In the early winter of the eleventh year of Jian'an, Cao Pi received a letter from Yecheng, which made Cao Pi a little depressed that the letter did not mention Cao Chong's promotion, but only said that Cao Cao personally recruited senior cadres, and after breaking the Huguan, with the help of Hedong Taishou Du Ji, he even beheaded Weigu, Fan Xian, Zhang Sheng and other high-level cadres, and the army of high-ranking cadres was also broken by Cao Cao. The four prefectures of Yuan Shao's northern land can be said to be completely under Cao Cao's control, of course, there are still many places that are not substantially controlled, such as Dai County, Shanggu County, and Liaodong County in Youzhou.
At the same time that Cao Pi saw this letter, Tuyin ushered in several wealthy families from the Central Plains who moved north, and these big clans came from a bit of a special background, all of which came from the territory under the jurisdiction of Du Ji, who had just helped Cao Cao destroy Gao Gan, Hedong County. Among them, the two families with the largest population and private soldiers were surnamed Wei and Fan, and needless to say, they also knew that they were the clansmen of Wei Gu and Fan Xian, who followed Gao Gan to oppose Cao Cao. Obviously, these two families are famous families in Hedong, just look at the tenant farmers and baggage they brought, they came to Youzhou naturally because they were afraid that their families would be implicated by Wei Gu and Fan Xian, the two clansmen who were working against Cao Cao, and Cao Pi expressed great welcome to their arrival, because his problem was solved.
These two families each have a thousand fully equipped private soldiers, as well as two or three thousand tenant farmers, and countless cattle and sheep farm tools, it would be a pity if these people did not take them to open up the wasteland, it happened that the two places of Dai County and Shanggu County Zhang Liao and Cao Zhang had vacated a lot of space, Cao Pi immediately divided the family into two groups, one group led by the Wei family, one group led by the Fan family, respectively into Dai County and Shanggu County, Cao Pi even hung the title of Taishou to the family group of the two families, As for the original Tai Shou in Dai County and Shanggu County, Cao Pi was transferred to the two idle positions of Liaodong Taishou and Hu Wo Fu Lieutenant, after all, Wo Fu is thousands of miles away, and Liaodong County is still occupied by the Gongsun clan, so these two Taishou can only come to Tu Yin to serve, they are also natives of Dai County and Shanggu County, but these people were oppressed by the Wuhuan people before, and later they were deterred by Zhang Liao and Cao Zhang, so they naturally did not dare to complain, so they obediently took office.
The Wei family and the Fan family heard that they could be Taishou, so they naturally passed the fart, and Cao Pi also believed that they could govern Dai County and Shanggu County in some ways, after all, Hedong County is also a big county, and there are many literate children from famous families there, as long as they have knowledge, they can naturally govern the place well.
While the two families said goodbye to Cao Pi and went on the road, Cao Zhang returned to Tuyuan with ten cavalry. Cao Pi immediately set up a family banquet for his younger brother to catch the wind, and when the two of them were drinking, Cao Pi suddenly said: "Do you know that the state has been pacified now?" ”
After the tempering of the war, the childishness on Cao Zhang's face has been worn away, and the whole person has a compelling edge, coupled with his tall body, it is still very deterrent to sit there, but a pair of eyes still seem a little innocent of a young man, and when he heard Cao Pi ask, he immediately said: "Ah! I know, it's a family letter from the third brother, and there was a family letter before, which said that Cang Shu became an official, hehe, Cang Shu, just a few years old, he became an official, amazing. ”
Cao Zhi actually wrote to Cao Zhang? But it didn't write to me? This kid is not honest....Cao Pi's heart sank.
