Cao Cao said this, and asked Zhong Xuan: "Mr. Zhong was also in the capital back then, what is his impression of Liu Biao?" ”

Zhong Xuan has always spoken and acted steadily, and after listening to Cao Cao's question, he pondered for a while before replying: "Prime Minister." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 At that time, Zhong Xuan was not resident in the capital, and occasionally went to Beijing once, and he lived for a short time.

So there was no chance to meet Liu Jingsheng.

However, the contemporaries' evaluation of Liu Biao is basically the same as what the prime minister said, and they all think that Liu Biao's future is limitless. ”

"Hehe, who knows that after Liu Biao made the Jingzhou Thorn History, well, after being stable in the position of the Jingzhou Thorn History, he will have no sharpness. Immediately, he became a master of success, and he had no enterprising spirit at all. He had a few fights with Soochow, and they were all passive. ”

When Cao Cao said this, he shook his head, took a breath and said: "At that time, the world was in turmoil, and with the strength of Jingzhou, Liu Biaoman could lead his troops to look around and compete with the heroes for the world, but he kept Jingzhou without the slightest action. ”

After Cao Cao finished speaking, he asked Zhong Xuan: "Mr. Zhong, tell me, why is Liu Biao like this?" ”

"Prime Minister, after Liu Biao sat firmly in the position of Jingzhou Thorn History, he didn't make any moves. The reason for this is that many people in the world ridicule him, saying that he is a 'dog who guards the household', 'has no great ambitions', and so on.

I thought that the prime minister was well-informed.

I think of the number of times the prime minister talked about Liu Biao in front of us, saying that the world ridiculed Liu Biao, which was really ignorant and false.

Liu Biao held Jingzhou for three reasons: he was old and sick, and it was difficult to lead the army to fight directly;

The second is that Liu Biao has a unique insight into the affairs of the world - in this troubled situation, if he works hard and wounds soldiers, it is better to keep one side peaceful and wait for the situation to change.

Later, the cases of Lü Bu, Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shu were defeated one after another, which is enough to show that Liu Biao tried to ensure the peace of the party in the troubled times, which was a wise move.

Third"

When Zhong Xuan said this, Cao Cao interrupted him with a smile on his face and said, "Yes, yes." I said so. Hehehehehe. I forgot it myself, but Mr. Zhong has an excellent memory, and he can remember the conversation so clearly for many years. ”

Zhong Xuan said: "At that time, after listening to the prime minister's analysis, it was really like an enlightenment, and I felt that the world was really confused, and only the prime minister understood." That's why I kept it in mind. ”

"En" Cao Cao listened, agreed thoughtfully, thought for a while, and said: "Liu Biao's matter is over like this, we won't talk about it."

I mentioned Liu Biao's matter in order to analyze and study why he gave birth to such a talented son as Liu Cong! Although Liu Biao was graceful and famous for his talents when he was young, his achievements in his life cannot be overestimated.

is such a wise and self-protecting character, how can he give birth to such a son as Liu Cong? This is puzzling.

I know that the door is established in the world, and the family style is passed on from generation to generation, not a matter of one generation, a family, you don't know how many generations you have to do good deeds and accumulate virtue before you can produce a productive descendant. But Liu Biao didn't."

(Cao Cao caused a conversation like this, and all the civil and military officials began to follow his words to make remarks, some said that Liu Cong was a god who descended to earth, and came to the world to do things with the stars in the sky, "If you are not a god, how can you lead troops to fight and win a hundred battles?" If you are not a god, how can you be proficient at this age? Leading troops to fight and governing the country is a major national event that ordinary mortals cannot easily understand. ”

Some say that Liu Cong is the son of Liu Biao, isn't Liu Biao a direct descendant of Gaozu? Who is Gaozu? It is also the stars in the sky that descend to earth: "Why did the heroes and heroes of the late Qin Dynasty rise up, only Gaozu won the world and established the foundation of the Western Han Dynasty for 200 years?" Mangdang Mountain lifted a three-foot sword to cut the white snake, hey, that is the omen of the White Emperor when the Red Emperor should stand. How can ordinary people accomplish such a great thing? Gaozu is a star in the sky, Liu Cong, as a direct descendant of Gaozu, what does it say"

These words got farther and farther, and the more Cao Cao listened to them, the more annoyed he became, and when he heard this, he coughed, stood up and paced.

When everyone heard this, they quickly stopped talking, looked at Cao Cao, and waited for him to speak.

Cao Cao scolded these people in his heart, but he said something else in his mouth, he said: "The problem now is that we can't say useless things here, we should find ways to eliminate Liu Cong." Only then will we be able to "

As soon as Cao Cao said this, the guards outside the door reported that a scout had sent information over, and Cao Cao ordered him to meet him in a hurry.

The scout came in to send the information, and when Cao Cao opened it, he saw that the information said that Liu Cong led the men and horses from Yecheng, all the way to the west, and after crossing the Yellow River, he went to Beidi County to collect and surrender 10,000 Xiongnu Fran horses, and then went to Yunzhong to defeat Xianbei Mucouch Dan.

Then crossed the Yinshan Grand Canyon, chased and killed Mu Ta Dan Yu to the Xianbei Camp of Jinyin Mountain, and later did not know what means to use, and surrendered Xianbei Mu Ta Dan Yu and his four reinforcements.

After that, the Xianbei was dismembered, the Xianbei country was divided into four jurisdictions, each jurisdiction has a tribal alliance leader jurisdiction, the four jurisdictions are the same level units, each of them is in their own way, and they are not subordinate to each other, Liu Cong also re-determined the affiliation of the four jurisdictions and the Han Dynasty, since then the Han is the suzerain, Xianbei is the vassal of the Han Dynasty, and regularly pays tribute to the Han every year, and the tributes include cattle, sheep, horses, and leather products, as well as all kinds of local specialties.

In addition, it is also clearly stipulated that the four Xianbei vassal states must pay ten Xianbei beauties to the Han every year.

From then on, it is never allowed to mention the policy of peace and affinity again, and Xianbei has changed from the people to the single one, and if there is a person who mentions the matter of peace and proximity in vain, he will be killed."

Cao Cao was simply frightened when he saw this, only to see him holding the case with one arm, twisting his beard under his chin with one finger, staring straight at the gate with two eyes, not saying a word, and not knowing what he was thinking.

By this time, he had already thrown the scout's information aside, but his mind was at a loss where to fly.

When everyone saw it, they just watched cautiously, and they didn't dare to interrupt his train of thought, and after a while, Cao Cao breathed a long sigh of relief, came back to his senses, and muttered involuntarily: "Liu Cong is out, this is a heavenly mourning!" After that, he looked around at the crowd, looked at the scout again, and asked, "Say, where is Liu Cong now?" ”

"Tell the Prime Minister. After Liu Cong dealt with the affairs of Xianbei Kingdom, he hurriedly returned to Yunzhong County with his troops, and arranged for a Xianbei man named Mu Cituo to be in charge of Zuo Yunzhong County, and then traveled in a hurry in the snow, and crossed the Yellow River to Beidi County in three days, and arranged for the dead Xiongnu Shan Yuyufule's son Youxian Wang Fran to be the governor of Beidi County"

As soon as he heard Liu Cong's march in the snow, Cao Cao felt excited, and hurriedly asked: "It is the middle of winter outside the Saiwai, the weather is cold and the water is dripping into ice, Liu Cong's three thousand men and horses, well, what, known as the Jingzhou Iron Cavalry, came and went in a hurry like this, and there were no frozen to death?" ”

"I would like to tell the prime minister, this point is really unknown. Well, it seems that I heard that this year, when Liu Cong led his troops out of the fortress, it didn't snow until Liu Cong withdrew his troops.

Although it snowed, the weather was not very cold, and I heard that it was warm winter weather outside the Saiwai this year, so Liu Cong's people came and went very smoothly! ”

Cao Cao hated it and scolded: "Providence has made this kid accomplish this, but he is Nana's, what kind of horse is this Jingzhou iron, three thousand horses, that is my wealth!" ”

Cao Cao scolded and said that there is no way to get angry here, he lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head and asked, "Where, you say, where is Liu Cong now?" ”

"Tell the prime minister that when his subordinates sent information here from Beidi County, Liu Cong's men and horses were still stationed in Beidi County, and it was really unknown where they were going to march behind. Wait for your subordinates to go to scout again. ”

Cao Cao listened and said, "I know, you can go." With a wave of his hand, he sent the two scouts away.

Looking back, many civil and military officials said: "There is no need to scout and reconnoitre, I already understand Liu Cong's next move." At present, there is no war in the Guan, and Xianbei outside the Saiwai has been conquered by him again, hum! His next target is us.

Earlier, when he led his troops to Beidi County, he was thinking of making a detour from the north to attack Chang'an. But I don't know how to change the strategic layout all of a sudden. Well, this kid, something as big as the sky, he can do it as easily as he wants to leave his relatives! ”

When Cao Cao said this, he asked everyone: "Since Liu Cong is coming towards us, what means do we say to defeat him?" ”

To deal with such a major matter, Cao Cao generally takes the idea himself, and others dare to speak casually.

Although Cao Cao was soliciting everyone's opinions, he was only speaking to everyone in general terms, without specific references, so no one in the room full of civil and military officials wanted to be the first bird.

Why? Everyone knows that Cao Cao has begun to go downhill recently, and the battle with Liu Cong in front of him is basically a big event that can determine the fate of Cao Wei's regime, so who dares to speak more to take responsibility in the future?

When Cao Cao saw this situation, he was angry and angry, but he sat and waited quietly, waited for a while, and saw that everyone continued to puff out their mouths without squeaking, so he laughed awkwardly, suppressed his anger and asked Zhong Xuan: "Mr. Zhong has been operating here for many years, and he should have his own ideas for dealing with this matter." Please speak. ”

When Zhong Jian heard this, he coughed a few times and said, "Prime Minister, it's true that my subordinates have been operating here for many years. However, every bit of achievement was achieved under the guidance of the prime minister. To be honest, there really wasn't a suitable plan to say it for a while.

However, his subordinates felt that the prime minister was talented and well-versed in the world, and he was really the greatest man in the world. Although Liu Cong has done everything smoothly in the past few years, it is really accidental.

Besides, Liu Cong led 3,000 troops, let's just say that he was an elite division, can't we think of Liu Cong too well? It's a bit of a tiger color change, right?

The subordinates feel that we have more than 100,000 horses in Chang'an, and Liu Cong only brought 3,000 men and horses. ”054
