Chapter 1127: Conquest by Sea
Cao Cao pressed the summons and asked Chen Gongdao, "Gongtai, what do you think we should do?" ”
Chen Gong hugged his fists and said, "Weichen thought he should agree!" It's more of a control over our place! ”
Cao Cao nodded, and said a little: "But in this case, will it cause a backlash from Yue Duo?" ”
Chen Gong smiled happily and clenched his fists and said, "Your Majesty, do you think that Yue Duo is now truly surrendering to us?" ”
Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, laughed, and nodded: "Not bad!" In that case, then order the Ministry of Rites to send an envoy to Kokir! ”
"Your Majesty is wise!
Cao Cao pondered: "Send a flying pigeon to ask Bo Fu's opinion on Shiwei!" In addition, ask Kong Ming's opinion, after all, Kong Ming has been in Jiaozhou for a while, and he should have a more reasonable understanding than us! ”
"Yes!" Chen Gong promised and withdrew from the main hall. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Later in the evening, Sun Ce received a message from Chang'an.
Sun Ce immediately called Zhou Tai and asked, "How is the weak water base being built?" ”
Zhou Tai replied: "It's going well! It's ready to use! However, it will take at least three months to complete the entire base! General, is there any order from His Majesty? ”
Sun Ce nodded and handed the handbook to Zhou Tai.
Zhou Tai looked at it quickly, his eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Great! The brothers are already in a panic! ”
Sun Ce said: "Don't be too happy! According to the intelligence, Shiwei was very happy in the land of the Southern Barbarians! Our army must be fully prepared! Zhou Tai, you immediately lead a sailor to return to the weak water base! The first task is to figure out the specific situation of Shiwei! ”
"No!" Zhou Tai promised and retreated.
Sun Ce wrote a letter and called the herald to send it to Chang'an.
The war with the Jin state came to an end for the time being, and Cao Cao made some adjustments to the deployment of troops along the entire border.
The First Army, the Sixth Army, and the Wuhuan Cavalry were transferred to the Green Ridge Fortress as the general reserve of the entire Western Front, the Fifth Army was transferred back to Chang'an, the Second, Fourth, and Western Regions Legions defended the Luqishan Defense Line, the Xianbei Legion and the Rest Servant Army defended Nisa, and the Xiongnu Army was transferred back to the Changshi Mansion in the Western Regions.
On the northern front, the Third Army and the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry were stationed in the Wolf Mountain Fortress, 10,000 Northern Protectorate Garrisons were stationed in Kukan, 60,000 Northern Protectorate Garrisons were stationed in the fortress on the east bank of the Tunguska River, and the remaining 30,000 Northern Protectorate Garrisons were stationed in Dingbei Fortress.
It should be explained here that the total garrison of the Northern Protectorate is twice as large as the garrison of other places, with 100,000 men, and the Seventh and Eighth Army Corps are still stationed in Liaozhou and Fusang for the time being.
Cao Cao looked at the sand table in front of him, pointed at the location of the Western Regions with a wooden stick, and said, "Now the center of gravity of the empire has completely shifted to the direction of the Western Regions!" Although the people of Jin Guo have been greatly injured, the situation is even more severe for us! The Romans and the Jin people have come together! ”
The cabinet ministers nodded, and the generals shouted for the defeat of the Jin Kingdom and the overthrow of Rome.
Cao Cao smiled and asked Xu Chu, who shouted the loudest, "Zhongkang, you say, how can we pacify these two empires?" ”
Xu Chu was dumbfounded, frowned and thought for a long time, and said very seriously: "Your Majesty, the last general doesn't know!" ”
Everyone was stunned and laughed, Cao Cao couldn't help but say, "Zhongkang, I really like you so much!" ”
Cao Cao paused and smiled, and said, "Although our Great Wei Empire is powerful, it is very unwise to be enemies of these two empires at the same time!" ”
Chen Gong said: "What Your Majesty said is extremely true! Our priority is not to cut down the troops, but to cut the relations! ”
Cao Cao nodded, "In one word!" However, the whole country of Jin has become mortal enemies with us, and the possibility of forming an alliance with it to deal with Rome is too low! However, the feud between the Jin people and Rome is no smaller than the feud with us, so it is still feasible to separate the two countries! ”
The cabinet ministers nodded, and Hu Zhao analyzed: "Queen Silan is a wise person, it is obviously not feasible to start with her, we should find a way from the government and the opposition!" ”
Hu Zhao only returned to Chang'an a few days ago to report on his work, and Fa Zheng is currently in charge of the affairs of Jiaozhou.
Chen Gong nodded and said, "What Kong Ming said is extremely true! We incite hatred against Rome from the government and the opposition of the Kingdom of Jin! Even if Queen Slan wanted to form an alliance with Rome, she couldn't do it! ”
Cao Cao clapped his hands and said, "Very good, just do it!" Let Jinyiwei be in charge of this matter! It's a pity that the caravans were forced to scatter the Golden Country, otherwise it would have been much easier to carry out this work! By the way, have the caravans of the Jin people been cleared out? ”
Zhang Xi, who had been silent, immediately replied: "Returning to Your Majesty, it has all been cleared!" The property of all the people of the Golden Kingdom has been confiscated! ”
"How many?" Cao Cao asked subconsciously.
"More than one million taels of silver!"
Cao Cao couldn't help but pout, "I can't imagine that these Jin merchants are so poor!" ”
Everyone looked at each other.
Cao Cao laughed dryly and changed the topic: "What should we do with Rome?" ”
Chen Gong analyzed: "Caracalla is a man of great talent! We can't just hit his mind either! However, there were not many problems in Rome, the remnants of the Senate, the rebellion in England, the disappearance of the Egyptians and Assyrians, and religious inquiries. ”
Cao Cao nodded thoughtfully.
Hu Zhao smiled: "These Fanbang barbarians are also quite ridiculous! It would be because of those vain gods who fought to the death! ”
Compared with other ethnic groups, the Chinese have a very peculiar point, that is, they have never been controlled by a certain religion, and there will be no war over the so-called issue of faith! This may have something to do with national identity!
Chinese have always been hero worshippers, and the appearance of a hero can cover the brilliance of the gods and Buddhas in the sky, perhaps because of this, the Chinese hero Changchen ruler is jealous! While other peoples are more worshipping gods, heroes must also conform to religious beliefs!
Cao Cao smiled happily and thought: "You can use the caravan as a cover to send secret envoys to make exploratory contact with all parties!" Then we can move on to the next step! ”
The cabinet ministers nodded.
Cao Cao said to Zhang Xi: "Wangjiang, you can inform the chambers of commerce, let them do business in Rome, and be ready to leave at any time!" ”
Zhang Xi was taken aback, and said with a solemn face: "Yes!" ”
Cao Cao asked Hu Zhaodao: "Kong Ming, if our army sets out from Jiaozhou to attack the Southern Barbarians, do you think it is feasible?" ”
Hu Zhao shook his head and said, "It's difficult!" ”
Cao Cao couldn't help frowning, "Isn't it okay in autumn?" ”
"Your Majesty doesn't know! Although there is little rain in autumn, the miasma is still there, and insects, snakes, tigers and leopards are even more rampant! ”
Cao Cao pondered: "It seems that we can only pass through the sea!" (To be continued.) )
