Wang Cang and Wang Zhongxuan, the day before yesterday was still trembling on the White Wolf Mountain, scared half to death, and now seeing the victory of the Cao army, the courage is steep, and even before the rear army has come to join, and the generals have not yet spoken, they preemptively stood up to persuade Cao Cao to continue to march, and in one fell swoop to extinguish the Gongsun Du forces in Liaodong.

It was Xun Xin who said that this is a military idiot, before the battle, he would only judge the victory or defeat by the number of people, and after the victory, he immediately felt that the army was invincible - didn't you consider how big our losses were?

In the next battle of White Wolf Mountain, not only did the general Cao Chun be damaged, but almost everyone in the "Tiger and Leopard Cavalry" was wounded, and more than 30% of the people were killed and seriously injured in the battle, and the rest of the departments were also damaged. Coupled with the fact that he chased and killed Liucheng almost endlessly, he couldn't recover at all in three or five days. We'll have to wait for the rear army to arrive, see how they're doing, and then decide whether to advance or stay.

But what Cao Cao said immediately surprised Shixun even more. Cao Cao said: "People's hearts are not satisfied, both peaceful and long, looking back at Shuye? "It's Xun Xin who said, alas, this line is wrong?

In the original history, Cao Cao would say: "We made Kang behead Shang and Xi, and did not bother the soldiers." Although he also did not intend to continue to enter the army, his words were full of confidence. But now that the rhetorical question of "Delong Wangshu" is said, why does a strong atmosphere of decadence linger?

"Both Pinglong, look back at Shu", this was first said by Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu. I think that after Liu Xiu attacked the Kui Huan in Longshang and forced the Kui clan into a desperate situation, he left Wu Han and Cen Peng to surround Xicheng, Geng Yi and Gai Yan to surround Shangqi, and returned to Luoyang by himself. Before leaving. He left a letter to Cempen. The letter reads: "Two cities are like two cities. You can send the soldiers south to attack Shu. People are not satisfied, both peaceful and long, looking back at Shu ......" means that if you can destroy the hustle and bustle, then continue to go south, advance into Shuzhong, and fight Gongsun Shu - I'm a little insatiable.

Liu Xiu said a declarative sentence, but Cao Cao used a rhetorical question today. That means: People can't be dissatisfied, I finally calmed Karasuma, do I still have the strength to continue to fight Gongsun Du?

In the original history, more than ten years later, Cao Cao did say the same thing, that was after pacifying Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, Sima Yi persuaded him to take advantage of the victory to attack Liu Bei in Shu, Cao Cao didn't want to hear much, so he used this allusion that was very suitable in geography to push back. Because Cao Cao was in his twilight years at that time, his strength was declining. That's why such a great opportunity was lost. It was Xun Xin who said that you are only one year old and fifty now, so you won't start to get depressed, right?

But think about it again. After all, the previous battle was different from the original history, and the general Cao Chun was damaged. Cao Chun is the younger brother of Cao Ren, Cao Cao followed when he first raised the army, and was ordered to lead the "tiger and leopard cavalry", which won Cao Cao's favor. In a sense, Cao Zi and Cao De, who stayed at home to take care of his father for many years, are more like brothers and have a stronger family relationship with Cao Cao. This brother died in battle, so Cao Mengde is not allowed to be sad and depressed for a few days?

Yesun really wanted Cao Cao to completely solve the problem in the Northeast, because the Gongsun family was a big tumor that was difficult to cut, and the longer it stayed, the more serious the disaster would be. In the original history, this family was divided until the Cao Rong era, and there were two heads with Dongwu Mei for three days, so the Cao family was forced to endure - the south still has to face the Sun family, and the west has to resist the Liu family, and they really don't have the spirit to clean them up. It wasn't until Gongsun Yuan established himself as the king and did not serve Cao Wei Zhengshuo that Cao Rong was completely annoyed and sent Sima Yi to destroy him in a battle.

If Liaodong can be harvested as soon as possible, it will be possible to resist the Tartars externally and strengthen the strength internally, isn't it a very satisfying thing?

However, Shi Xun didn't dare to speak, on the one hand, he saw that Cao Cao was not enterprising at the moment, and on the other hand, the sergeant was tired, at least for the time being, even if he wanted to, he couldn't fight. History has been changed after all, and applying one's original understanding, it is inevitable that there will be a slight difference and a thousand miles of error - isn't the lesson on White Wolf Mountain enough? Do you have to risk your life and death again? Is he Kosuke sick?

When Shi Xun thought so, Xiahou Lian, Tian Chou and others had already stood up against Wang Zhongxuan's opinion. Wang Cang is twice as energetic today, and his tongue is full of lotus flowers at the moment, and he refutes them one by one - you said that the front army is tired, and the rear army has not arrived, so it is not appropriate to continue to march into the army, but I didn't say that this will send troops from Liucheng to fight, didn't the prime minister ask about the next step? I mean, when the rear army arrives and Liucheng is settled, you can wrap up Karasuma and go to kill Gongsun Du. Or at least you have to force Gongsun Du to hand over the Yuan brothers-

"Former Guo Fengxiao said that if the Yuan family exists, Youzhou will be unstable, and if the prime minister retires immediately, it is inevitable that all the previous achievements will be abandoned. Unless Karasuma is slaughtered, as soon as the army retreats, the Yuan family will follow, and Karasuma will rebel again. ”

What Wang Cang said was not unreasonable, although Cao Cao killed Badun and forced Wuyan, Su Muyan and other tribes, he could neither firmly control Karasuma in a short period of time, nor could he really subdue his heart. Don't forget, there is still a building class that followed the Yuan brothers to Liaodong, that is Qiu Liju's legitimate heir, if we retreat, he will definitely return, when the time comes, the group will echo, and the situation may recover in an instant before the battle of White Wolf Mountain. Aren't we running in vain this trip? Didn't Cao Zi and him die in vain?

Besides, now after the Yuan family and the Lou class, there is also a Gongsun Du, that guy is ambitious, and the soldiers and horses are strong, if he is compatible with the Yuan family and the Lou class, it will be a big disaster for the country - Youzhou, do you plan to ask for it?

Wang Cang talked eloquently, and Cao Cao couldn't help frowning and muttering.

It was Xun Xin who said that in the original history, Cao Mengde only stopped at Liucheng and did not continue the eastward crusade, although the Gongsun family could not be destroyed, but the situation did not erode because of this, how did he do it? At that time, Cao Cao said: "He is still afraid of waiting, I am anxious and strong, and if I am slow, I will be self-motivated, and its momentum will be." "If I am pressing, they will definitely unite to resist, if they turn around and retreat, the Gongsun family and the Yuan family will definitely meet each other - this is the same reason as dealing with the Yuan brothers.

At the moment, Xun wanted to paraphrase Cao Cao's original words in history, and first appease the feelings of the big guys - he wanted to fight, but he also knew that it was difficult to fight, and it was a pity to withdraw from the army; If you can surrender the soldiers without a fight, and make your own plan to go to the army, is it appropriate to apply Cao Cao's calculations in history to today, and besides, I will lay out that reason first, so that everyone can have one more way to think about it.

He straightened his waist and was about to speak, however...... I swallowed it alive again. Because I suddenly thought of a strict question - it is not Gongsun Kang who is now standing on the throne of Xiangping, but Gongsun Du!

For Gongsun Kang, the face shown in the history books is very vague, and I don't know if he is really capable, or if he is an ordinary lord of Zhongping. "The Biography of Liang Mao" once recorded that Gongsun Du wanted to take advantage of Cao Cao's distance from Yecheng to send troops to attack, but was dissuaded by Liang Mao, Pei Songzhi was sparse, Cao Cao Dingye and Gongsun Du died in the same year, and Cao Cao did not stay away in the year after Dingye, so this matter is not accurate - Pei Songzhi did not say it explicitly, in fact, he suspected that it was Gongsun Kang who planned to carry out a sneak attack, not Gongsun Du. However, it is also possible that this record itself is a Xibei product, or some other details are wrong, and it should not be placed on Gongsun Kang's head suddenly.

So is this man ambitious? Ambitious? I can't tell. In the original history, he thought that it was not easy to subdue the Yuan brothers who came to vote, so he beheaded two Yuan to offer Cao Cao, and then his attitude towards the court was at least superficial and deferential.

However, his father's grandson is different, that person cut Liaodong, killed decisively, and once "set up the temple of the two ancestors of the Han Dynasty, undertook to set up an altar in the south of Xiangping City, worshiped the world in the suburbs, borrowed the field, governed the army, took the Luan Road, Jiuhan, and the head of the feather ride", its encroachment is more obvious than Liu Biao and Liu Yan. Cao Cao named him the Marquis of Yongning, but he ignored it, and said: "My king Liaodong, He Yongning also!" ”

Therefore, Gongsun Kang is afraid of Yuan's rebellion, and Gongsun Du may not be afraid, he is likely to be able to control the second Yuan and Lou Ban, and really take advantage of the situation to go west to compete with Cao Cao. If we withdraw from the army, will we really be able to make the two captives fight? The times are different, and the parties are different, so it's hard to predict!

It was Xun who turned in a secret circle in his heart, and he wanted to speak but shrank back. But he just straightened his waist, and he had already fallen into Cao Cao's eyes, and Cao Cao immediately asked, "What is Hongfu's good plan?" ”

Shi Xun had no choice but to open his mouth to say some nonsense: "I don't know how Gongsun Shengji is like a person, and I don't know if he can tolerate Eryuan and whether he dares to be the enemy of the country." The enemy situation is unknown, how dare you rush forward? Now he should send an envoy to Xiangping, so that Shengji will cut off the second Yuan head to offer, and covet his true meaning. ”

Let's test Gongsun Du's thoughts first, and then we can deal with it.

Cao Cao said that this was a serious policy, but who should be sent to Liaodong County to govern Xiangping City? said this in his mouth, but he squinted his eyes at Shi Xun. It's Xun Xin who finished speaking, this job has to fall on my head. If the Cao family is here, they will naturally be able to find a more suitable person than me...... Or just a person who is slightly inferior to me, so that Liaodong, the problem is now that few people can use it with the expedition to Liucheng. Of course, Wang Cang's nerd can't be successful, Tian Chou may be able to, the problem is too low to be managed.

He was still hesitating. His own family is famous in the Central Plains, and if he really wants to talk about the princes, in fact, the danger factor is not too big - who dares to risk the disapproval of the world and murder him Hongfu? There are only two kinds of people who may dare to make a heart, one is that they are far away and don't care much about the famous people in the Central Plains, and the other is that they are from a low background and dare to act unscrupulously - the two problems Gongsun Du are all next to each other!

At this moment, there was a sudden report from Tanma: "Gongsun Du sent the general Han Zhong to ride ten thousand horses, and it is close to Yangle!" ”

Yangle is the county governance of western Liaoning, a hundred miles east of Liucheng, from Yangle to Liucheng, you can almost start and arrive. Cao Cao was shocked when he heard this: "Then the second Yuan has not yet arrived in Xiangping, and Gongsun Du will send troops!" "Why did he come here? Do you want to fight Karasuma and Eryuan with yourself and take advantage of the opportunity, or do you want to unite Karasuma and Eryuan to fight against the Heavenly Soldiers?

Wang Cang was also shocked when he heard the news, and hurriedly faced Shixun: "The matter is urgent, please Hongfu will send Liaodong to express this difficulty!" (To be continued......)
