"Surrender Cao Cao!?"

In the first military meeting after the victory, Wang Yu's first sentence made the generals jump in shock.

"The lord should think twice, Cao Cao is not an ordinary person, and the two Gongsun generals, Gao, Yuan, Ma, Chen are all very different, this person has great ambitions, good at attracting people's hearts, and now he is the hope of the world's corporals, and is good at combining vertical and horizontal means...... If you really use this person to go out of the town and frontier, I am afraid it will backfire, and the war will continue! ”

Zhuge Liang reacted the fastest, and after thinking about it, he sorted out his thoughts and put forward advice in a serious manner.

"Kong Ming is right, that guy is ruthless, and he is definitely not a good stubble! To deal with this kind of person, you should chase and beat him fiercely, without leaving him the slightest respite, and directly chop him into meat puree, which is appropriate! Tai Shi Ci followed and said.

He and Dian Wei don't know each other, and they have a little sympathy, and they are extremely sympathetic to Wang Yu's decision to let Dian Wei go, but Cao Cao ...... He even had some doubts that the lord was carried away by the great victory, otherwise how could he come up with such an idea?

Even Wei Yan, who has always been wrong to people and specializes in disagreeing with Zhuge Liang, did not approve of Wang Yu's proposal, he said with a dark face: "Don't say that Cao Cao may not be able to see the situation clearly, even if he knows each other, what if he knows each other, what if he knows their hatred?" Will they just let them die in vain? On the other hand, Cao Cao's brothers, sons and nephews died a lot in this battle, how could he not take it to heart at all? ”

Perhaps this is the most questioned by his subordinates since Qingzhou became an army. He didn't feel annoyed, this idea was originally a whim when he faced Dian Wei, and even he felt inexplicable, let alone others?

The rebuttals of the crowd are also very reasonable.

Wei Yan holds the theory of hatred, and the unfinished meaning is also to remind Wang Yu that if Cao Cao is let go, Lu Bu is afraid that it will be difficult to explain. It was probably the sudden change in the Central Plains battle situation that left a deep impression on him, so Tai Shici's evaluation of Cao Cao was unusually high. thinks that the other party can't be given the slightest chance, otherwise there will be huge hidden dangers.

Zhuge Liang analyzed purely from ambition and talent, distinguishing Cao Cao from the existing princes.

At present, the five princes have their own similarities and differences. But the common feature is that the pattern is limited.

Needless to say, the two of Youzhou and Liaodong are more than strong. The flexibility is insufficient, and Gongsun Du is staring at the one-third of an acre of land in Liaodong; Ma Chao, Gao and Yuan were all subdued, and the former also had an in-law relationship with Wang Yu, as long as Wang Yu was alive for a day, they should not make any trouble.

The Chen family's heritage is deeper than the other four, but the father and son are not ambitious people, as long as they can see tangible benefits in overseas development. Presumably, there will be no recurrence.

But Cao Cao is different, he is a real hero. Setbacks will only make him grow, and time will bring him new strength, and he will really be treated as Gongsun Zhan. Maybe we can save less blood and fight a few fewer battles, but what will happen in a few years, or ten years? Maybe he will connect a group of princes to counterattack the Central Plains and cause chaos in the world, right?

Wang Yu did not refute. couldn't refute it, he listened patiently for a while, and saw that there was no more representative opinion, so he raised his hand and waited for everyone to calm down. He said slowly: "The opinions of all the monarchs are correct, but you don't seem to understand what I mean, I am not talking about surrendering, not to give him the status of a prince, but to take him under his command as a minister of governance." ”

There was silence.

Even Zhuge Liang was stunned and speechless, and the others all looked at each other.

This proposal was even more bizarre than the previous one, but it resolved most of the objections raised by everyone.

Qingzhou implemented a policy of absolute separation of military and government, and even in the most tense stage of the war, there was no situation in which Tian Feng or Guoyuan held military power, and vice versa, and it was unique for military generals to interfere in internal affairs. If Cao Cao is really allowed to serve in the internal affairs system, the risk will be reduced to an acceptable level at once.

The benefits of getting Cao Cao are far more than that. As Zhuge Liang said, Cao Cao is the anti-Qingzhou Shi clan, if he stubbornly resists to the end, or dies on the battlefield, it is likely to encourage the anti-Qingzhou forces to continue fighting, but if he surrenders, even if there are still diehards, the entire anti-Qingzhou Shi clan camp will fall apart.

Of course, in terms of the current situation, these warriors can't make any big waves, and the iron-blooded purge will only take some more time. But if you look to the future, the gains outweigh the losses.

Qingzhou's expansion has been very fast, and the scale of this big expansion is unprecedented. In that year, Yuan Shao was equalized and the southern counties of Hebei were captured, and the talents were nervous, and it was all up to Wang Yu to adjust the policy and incorporate a part of the scholars to solve the problem. And in the next expansion, the talents needed are not as simple as several times, and the Qingzhou Army is about to take the Central Plains when they see it!

If you can settle most of the nobles peacefully, without using too drastic means, you can also get the complete inheritance of those families - or literature, or technology, or whatever, these are the things that are most likely to be destroyed in war.

In short, if Cao Cao can be recruited, the benefits will definitely outweigh the disadvantages.

Tai Shi Ci muttered, "Cao Cao's ...... I'm afraid it won't be easy, right? ”

"It's his business whether to descend or not, as long as we show our attitude, do enough scenes, and tell the world that the lord has the capacity to tolerate people." Zhao Yun suddenly interjected: "Of course, we have to continue to fight, we can't give him a chance to use the strategy of delaying the army, and when he is at the end of his rope, there will be not much choice in what way to go." ”

"I see!" Zhuge Liang's eyes lit up, obviously reminded by Zhao Yun, and remembered something: "What the lord wants to eliminate is only the privileges of the scholar clan to monopolize the court, not to allow the family to exist, but due to the past, it is inevitable that the world will misunderstand...... As far as Liang himself is concerned, he also misunderstood the lord back then. ”

He laughed at himself, and then said: "With the help of this negotiation of surrender, it is just a propaganda for the New Deal, and it can be regarded as a foreshadowing in advance, which is the best of both worlds." The lord's vision is really long-term, and the bright hope is beyond the reach of the dust. ”

"That's it, don't do this." Wang Yu raised his finger and pointed at Zhuge Liang, and said with a smile: "Kong Ming, patting on the back or something is not suitable for you, you should do a good job as an iron-masked military division." ”

All the generals also laughed, and the atmosphere suddenly relaxed.

"Now that it's decided, it's time to arrange it as soon as possible. Kong Ming, you will repair the book and return to Gaotang, and come to the account to listen to it as soon as possible. ”

"I'll do it." Zhuge Liang responded and left.

Wang Yu turned to Fang Yue. instructed: "Wuji, you work harder, take someone to the east to greet you." Let's see when Wenhe and Tanzhi will arrive, and if they need reinforcements. ”

"Don't worry, lord!" Fang Yue got up and answered. Although he replied loudly, his eyes looked a little wandering.

Wang Yu waved his hand and reprimanded, "What? If you have something to say, what is such a mother-in-law? ”

"The last general is thinking, Gao Tang's side ......" Fang Yue looked a little hesitant.

The last suspense of this big war lies on the Eastern Front. The remaining troops on the Eastern Front had limited strength, but they faced very strong opponents, and if there was a mistake. Whether it is the fall of Gaotang, or the opportunity of Xiahou Yuan to capture Taishan Road and attack Qingzhou, it will have a considerable impact on the situation in the world.

There was no way for the cavalry to reinforce in time. From Taiyuan all the way to Hanoi, almost non-stop, the final battle was even more intense, and the physical strength of the soldiers had reached the limit. I have to run a long distance to save Gao Tang. Then it really has to answer the sentence: Those who seek profit for a hundred miles will become generals.

In terms of distance, it is safest to let Jia Xu and Zhoucang advance by waterway, and rush back to help. However, Wang Yu's order was to ask Jia Xu to come to the convergence and then besiege Luoyang's routine.

"There are Wen Yuan and Zi Jing on Gao Tang's side. I'm not afraid that I can't deal with Sun Ce and Xiahou Yuan, even if I really can't win, I won't be defeated. With Zijing and Shuzhi's steadiness, if there is really any trouble, the letter for help has already arrived. ”

Wang Yu is not unworried, but Gao Tang is so far away, what's the use of worrying? It's really a big defeat, and dividing troops to return to help has become a refueling tactic, rather than wasting time to hurry, it is better to concentrate on taking Luoyang first.

The current Luoyang has not experienced the tragic catastrophe in history, if Cao Cao sets up a defense line in Luoyang, it will be a trouble to shield Nanyang and Jingzhou, or take advantage of your illness to kill you, and grab this chip first.

On the way to Jia Xu's martial arts, there were still Li Dian's five thousand elites in the way, and Wang Yu planned to eat this living force and completely isolate Luoyang.

After instructing Fang Yue, Wang Yu called Li Shiyi again and asked him to give orders to the forbidden army, first to besiege Li Dian, and then to march together with the three armies to take Luoyang.

After the war, there were still a lot of aftermath affairs, Zhao Yun and Tai Shici also received military orders to get busy, but Wei Yan refused to leave, and when there was no one, he came over and reminded: "The lord wants to surrender Cao Cao, and Wen Hou ...... there."

"Well, Uncle Yue's side, I'll go and say that Wen Chang has a heart." Wang Yu nodded, got up to leave, but saw that Wei Yan still looked like he wanted to say something, he was a little impatient, and reprimanded: "I said Wen Chang, what are you trying to do here?" Can't you just finish it all at once? ”

Wei Yan touched the back of his head and said, "I just have an idea...... Lord, don't you think our Hidden Mist Army is still a little insufficient? ”

"Huh?" Wang Yu stopped, turned his head to look at Wei Yan, and smiled thoughtfully: "You go on." ”

"Everything else is fine, the lurking is hidden enough, the surprise attack is sharp enough, and the intelligence spying is also very effective......" Wei Yan observed the change in Wang Yu's expression and said slowly: "It's just, well, the ability to fight a tough battle is a little worse." ”

Wang Yu didn't think it was wrong, and asked rhetorically: "Wen Chang, you should be in charge of the Hidden Mist Army, what do you propose?" ”

Wei Yan grabbed his scalp and was a little anxious: "Eh, lord, why don't you understand?" That's it, that's it...... Well, there is a very good set of training in accordance with righteousness, and the tactics of trapping the camp are also very compatible with our Hidden Fog Army, so, so what about ......"

His complexion was already dark, and this urgency was even more purple and red, which made Wang Yu feel funny in his belly.

is worthy of Wei Yan, it is really unprofitable and can't afford to be early. The allies have just suffered heavy losses, so they are worried about the belongings of their allies, and they have merged the trapped camp and the Hidden Mist Army into one? Not to mention, it's a great idea, I like it!

"yes, got it." Thinking so in his heart, Wang Yu's face was silent, nodded, um, and then walked away, leaving Wei Yan scratching his ears and cheeks in place, very depressed.

Although it is a bit unrighteous, but the idea itself is good, with Gao Shun and the trapping camp, the Hidden Mist Army is no worse than the Wind Army, and it is definitely first-class to grab the credit in the next battle.

On such a critical issue, why didn't the lord give a letter? It's really sad.
