Chapter 767: Powerful Lobbyist
"Daddy......"
Cao Xian saw that after Cao Jie finished speaking, she followed: "Sister Jie'er is right, my daughter didn't fall in love with Liu Yi from the beginning, but after getting along with him, I gradually found that this person does have the advantages that Sister Jie'er said that ordinary people do not have." And it just so happens that these advantages in him are the main reasons why his daughter can't help but fall in love with him. Of course, in addition to what Jie'er's sister said, he also has the human advantage of treating people with kindness and sincerity. More importantly, he is indeed a great talent with an earth-shattering talent who can really think about us Han people. Judging from the current situation, he can indeed lead our Han people to strength and glory. Not to mention anything else, it depends on your father's governance of the Central Plains, and you also refer to a lot of the governance plans of the New Han Dynasty, from this aspect, can it be explained that in fact, father, you also unconsciously recognized Liu Yi's talent? ”
Cao Cao was even more speechless, because what Cao Xian said was indeed a fact, and he did refer to many of the governance methods of the New Han Dynasty. He does feel that when it comes to governing the world, he is indeed inferior to Liu Yi. Otherwise, the strength of his court will not be much weaker than that of the New Han Dynasty, no matter how quickly he catches up in the back, he can't catch up, all of these things make him feel deeply powerless, and he can't argue.
"The eldest sister is right." Cao Jie continued: "There are some things, in fact, my father knows more clearly than us women, and the problems he sees are more profound. As long as you are a person of insight, you can already see that our Han Dynasty has already run out of energy, and the court is like yesterday's yellow flower, corrupt and corrupt. If you look at the problem from the standpoint of a Han Chinese. It is equivalent to saying that the former Han royal family can no longer bear the important task of revitalizing the Han Dynasty. At this time, there must be a person of insight. There are real heroes of great talent to take on this important task. ”
"Xian'er, Jie'er, do you want to say that Liu Yi is this hero of the world, and his father is not as good as him? Therefore, no matter what Liu Yi imposes on me Cao Cao, Cao can only endure it, or must he obey him and obey his orders? Cao Cao said with a bitter and weak face.
"Definitely!" Cao Jie shook his head and said, "Daddy, in fact, you are in the hearts of Jie'er and other sisters. It's a hero of the world. Really, if there is no such person as Liu Yi in this world, then Jie'er and other sisters will also feel that Daddy is the hero who can rescue the people in this chaotic world from suffering, and Daddy is the one who can revive the dynasty. Commanding the world, a true leader who dares not to obey. ”
"So, because in this world, there is Liu Yi. Therefore...... "Cao Cao's frustration is even stronger, and even his daughter feels that she is not as good as Liu Yi......
Cao Jie interrupted Cao Cao's speech, looked at Cao Cao with a look of reverence, and said, "No." Daddy, you're in your daughter's mind. He is still the only hero in the world. With or without Liu Yi, you are the leader who can make our Han Zhongxing. ”
"Daddy!" Cao Jie didn't wait for Cao Cao to speak. continued: "My daughter wants to say, if there is no Liu Yi in this world, then what kind of height can you take Dahan to? ”
Looking at Cao Jie's questioning face, Cao Cao said without thinking: "If there is no Liu Yi, of course I will learn from Emperor Qin to unify Liuhe, and learn from Han Wu to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty!" ”
"The daughter believes that her father has such ambitions and talents. But ......" Cao Jie bit her lip and raised a new question: "Daddy, although my daughter is a daughter, she also knows some political strategies, and even under the influence of you, Daddy, you can barely say that she has come into contact with some military strategies. My daughter knows that when the two armies are at war, before the war, the military advisors, strategists, commanders, generals, etc., of the two armies will definitely conduct some rehearsals for a certain war, and will discuss all kinds of problems and all aspects of a certain war, and then formulate a suitable and feasible strategy with a higher probability of victory. Why don't you have a rehearsal with your father now? ”
"Oh? Rehearsal what? Cao Cao couldn't help but glance at Cao Jie deeply, he knew that his daughter was not simple, she was smart and clever since she was a child, her thinking was quick, and she was very knowledgeable, and he couldn't help but be interested in the rehearsal she proposed.
"Let's talk about things, according to the various events that happened in the Han Dynasty before, assuming that without Liu Yi, what would happen to my father and what could he do." Cao Jie tilted his face and said with a hint of challenge.
"Hehe, okay, then give it a try." Cao Cao didn't want to admit that he was inferior to others in front of his daughter, so he forgot Fang Cai's anger for a while, and took Cao Jie's challenge angrily.
"Okay, the daughter asked her father, if there was no Liu Yi, in the battle of Tiger Prison Pass back then, would you be able to turn the tide and save Luoyang for thousands of years? Is it possible to save millions of people from Dong Zhuo's hands, and be able to settle these millions of people in an orderly manner in a short period of time? And let the people return to normal production and life in a short period of time? Cao Jie asked.
This question really turned Cao Cao down, because there were too many questions involved. One is the issue of war, the other is the issue of people's livelihood, and the other is the issue of foresight.
Cao Cao involuntarily fell into contemplation, recalling that he had launched a call to summon the heroes of the world to come to discuss Dong Zhuo.
Cao Jie saw that Cao Cao was pondering, and said as if giving Cao Cao some hints: "Daddy, the events of that year were seen by my daughter in some of the accounts recorded by the history department of the New Han Dynasty. Inside, there are too many things to say, and in order to seek the truth, my daughter asked a lot of people who were involved in it back then. Therefore, the daughter felt that what the daughter asked should be the period when Liu Yi had the least influence on her father. ”
Cao Jie was in Luoyang, especially when Liu Yi was away, she was not idle. In fact, most of the women around Liu Yi will not be idle. She likes to read books the most, especially some real accounts of the New Han Dynasty History Department since the establishment of the New Han Dynasty. Because from it, she can see the trajectory of Liu Yi all the way, and can feel these stories of Ailang, and she feels fun from it, as if she has experienced so many events with Liu Yi. As a honor.
Listening to Cao Jie's words, Cao Cao thought very seriously. But when he thought about it, he couldn't help but feel devastated. As Cao Jie said. At that time, Liu Yi had little influence on himself.
First of all, at that time, although Cao Cao was the initiator of that crusade against Dong Zhuo. However, he was not the most eloquent of the Allies. At that time, he was not able to compete for the position of the leader of the alliance of the princes of the world, so he could only sit and watch Yuan Shao ascend to the throne, and saw that the princes of the world were like a plate of scattered sand. He was powerless to integrate. And what about Leo of that period? But unconsciously, two bases have been established one in the south and one in the north, with hundreds of thousands of people who are loyal to him, and tens of thousands of soldiers who are loyal to Liu Yi and are good at recruiting and fighting.
When Lu Bu was defeated at Tiger Prison Pass and Dong Zhuo began to secretly plan to move the capital to Chang'an, what was he Cao Cao doing? What can be done?
Originally, he could break through the Tiger Prison Pass in one go and kill Luoyang. But. Because of the cowardice of the princes of the world, when they were afraid of fighting in order to preserve their strength, he Cao Cao also made the same mistakes as the princes of the world. Although he fights, he is selfish. I still want to preserve my strength. Otherwise, he could have overridden the public opinion and sent his own military horses to capture the Tiger Prison Pass. But. He wasn't like that, but thought. There are princes' armies in the Tiger Prison Pass to oppress and contain Dong Zhuo's military horses, and he can quietly kill Luoyang from another way. Attack Luoyang first, in order to capture the greatest victory after defeating Dong Zhuo.
It's a pity that the heavens don't obey people's wishes, and his military horses were actually ambushed by Dong Zhuo's elite, and a big defeat made him almost lose his strength on a par with all the princes in the world. So much so, in the end, even if the Tiger Prison Pass was broken and the army killed Luoyang, when he learned that Liu Yi had captured Luoyang, he Cao Cao clearly obeyed the gentleman's covenant with Liu Yi, but in fact, he no longer had the strength to compete.
In a word, that is, Cao Cao has lagged behind Liu Yi too much since that time, if there is no Liu Yi, today's Luoyang is definitely in ruins, and the millions of people in Luoyang today may have already been driven to Chang'an in Guanzhong by Dong Zhuo. He Cao Cao, even if he has the heart, he is powerless to save him.
Therefore, not to mention how he is going to settle the millions of Han people.
After a long time, Cao Cao lowered his head and said: "Okay, Dad admits that if there is no Liu Yi, Luoyang, the thousand-year-old capital, no longer exists, and the prosperity of this place is just an illusion." At that time, my father was affected by too many difficulties, and it was impossible to save Luoyang and save millions of people. At that time, Liu Yi did not have any influence on Cao, if you want to say that the impact is also benign, if he didn't raise troops from Wancheng, I am afraid that even the Tiger Prison Pass will be difficult to attack, and Dong Zhuo may not move the capital to Chang'an. ”
"Okay, then ask Daddy again, just if there is no Liu Yi, Luoyang is destroyed, and the millions of people are either forced to Chang'an by Dong Zhuo to work as labor, or they are already dead. There is no new Han Dynasty in this world. So how did you develop, Daddy, and what would you do when the Huns invaded the Han Dynasty? Well, after the establishment of the New Han Dynasty, the Huns invaded the Han Dynasty several times, each time with greater intensity than the other. In the absence of the New Han Dynasty, how can you resist the invasion of the Huns? Cao Jie asked again.
Cao Cao understands Cao Jiezhi's question very well, in fact, whether there is Liu Yi and the New Han Dynasty, his Cao Cao's development is the same. Development takes time, and it can never be achieved overnight. After Luoyang became a ruin, thousands of miles after no one. There is no point in occupying Luoyang, and even whoever occupies Luoyang has to deal with Dong Zhuo's counterattack who fled to Chang'an. Cao Cao also believed that at that time, the princes of the world, who had become a plate of scattered sand, would definitely not stay in Luoyang to develop, and it would develop as in reality, and the allied forces in the world would fall apart and return to various places. He Cao Cao will also leave a part of the army and horses to garrison in the Luoyang area at most, and will take the Tiger Pass and other areas as the main defense area, so as to prevent the invading Huns from the north from crossing the Tiger Pass into the Central Plains.
Cao Cao knew that with his strength in that period, what he could do was definitely the only way, and he would definitely not be able to cross the Yellow River north like Liu Yi, block the Huns from the Bingzhou area, and be able to defeat the Huns' army in one fell swoop and raise the prestige of the Han people.
Without the New Han Dynasty, Cao Cao would definitely focus on defense and work hard to develop his own strength on the other side. He was powerless against the invasion of aliens.
"I'm not as good as Liu Yi, if there is no him, Bingzhou would have been ravaged by foreign races, even if Luoyang is in ruins, I am afraid that it will be trampled by the horse's hooves of foreign races, and it will become the shame of our Han people." Cao Cao had to admit some facts, and lowered his head even lower.
"Then if there is no New Han Dynasty, how long will it take for Daddy to capture Xuzhou? Yuzhou, Yangzhou? ”
"If there is no New Han Dynasty, no Liu Yi, the war between you and Yuan Shao, Daddy, what will the result be? How long will it take to dominate the North? ”
"If there is no New Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu will be wiped out, Wuhuan will be strong, and the Xianbei clan will be eyeing each other, will the Hu people such as Xiliangqiang and Di also have an alliance to invade the Han Dynasty? If so, how will Daddy deal with it? ”
"Jingzhou, Yizhou, when will Daddy be able to send troops to recover?"
"In the Jiangdong region, when will Daddy send troops?"
"Jiaozhou, which is far away in Lingnan, when will it be assigned to the territory of the Han Dynasty?"
……
Cao Jie's questions were like needles piercing Cao Cao's heart, making Cao Cao, who was originally able to speak well, difficult to answer for a while, and in the face of some established facts, Cao Cao's excuses for rebuttal would be extremely weak.
"Daddy, my daughter doesn't want to prove that Daddy is inferior to Liu Yi, but I want to say that Liu Yi has a greater sense of the overall situation, and is more capable of leading our Han people to new glory, and can do miracles that our predecessors can't do. This is a great cause and a great achievement that has never been done before or since. Cao Jie said to Cao Cao: "It's not that Daddy is bad, but Liu Yi is better, because he may really be able to bring us Han people to a new height that has never been seen before." Therefore, he deserves your father's bow to him, and his father's assistance. ”
"I just found out that my daughter is such a powerful lobbyist, you make my father want to argue." Cao Cao smiled a little self-deprecatingly.
"However, Ang'er, Xian'er, Jie'er, do you think that if your father doesn't avenge this revenge of taking his wife and bullying his daughter, he can still endure humiliation and steal his life and obey the enemy, do you still have the face to live in this world?" Cao Cao gritted his teeth and said. (To be continued.) )
