Night 3 Indifferent Cao Ying (1)
After more than a week, Huang Zhi re-entered the main line of the Three Kingdoms War, and Huang Zhi obviously felt a kind of depression, and he didn't know if it was because there was still a psychological shadow on this main line. Walking out of the barracks, he always felt that the Wei soldiers looked at him with a bad look at him as before, and he was a little indifferent in his obedience.
In fact, the same phenomenon also appeared in the main line of the Northern and Southern Dynasties on Monday night, but because Huang Zhi had never participated in the Battle of Gaoliu, and his impression of the soldiers of the Northern Wei camp was still stuck at the time when he had just joined, so he was not aware of this. But right now, he is facing the Cao Wei camp of the main line of the Three Kingdoms, which has been painstakingly managed for six weeks, and every soldier here is emotionally invested, so the feeling is particularly obvious.
Unlike what Huang Zhi was concerned about, Captain Donghai was thinking about which battle they had entered at this time. Although he could get a clear clue right away by asking a random person, he had become accustomed to relying on his own analysis to reach a conclusion. Because after all, not every war dream can smoothly ask for information from other people's mouths, and there will always be unexpected situations.
For example, when Huang Zhi's "rookie threshold" entered the Normandy landing battle, if you sat on the landing craft, you still had to ask others, "Where are we going?" "It's strange that people don't think they're mentally retarded or crazy.
According to Sima Fuqiang's judgment, this is no longer the Guanzhong or Hanzhong battlefield on the western front, because the climate and vegetation here are not right, but like a battlefield on the southern front in the Jingzhou area.
Considering that the timeline of the main line of the Three Kingdoms last week has come to 219, and the next battle on the Western Front should be the Battle of Jieting in 228, then at this time it should be in the gap between the two battles on the Western Front, so the East China Sea team will arrange for the Dream World to move to the Jingzhou region on the southern front.
During this period, it was the period when Cao Pi used troops in Eastern Wu. From the third year of the early Huang Dynasty, that is, in 222 years, I heard that Shu and Wu were at odds, Liu Bei led the army eastward, and the camp was more than 700 miles, Emperor Wei Wen immediately moved his heart, and ordered Cao Xiu and Zhang Liao to lead all the way out of the cave in the autumn and September of that year, Cao Ren went out of the mouth of the Xu, and Cao Zhen, Xiahou Shang, Zhang He, Xu Huang and others attacked the southern county of Jingzhou.
These three roads are equivalent to the eastern, western, and southern lines in the hands of Cao Ying. Zhang Liao, the general of Zhengnan and the head of the five good generals, has already paid homage to the former general, while Zhang He and Xu Huang, who are also listed as the five good generals, have bowed to the left and right generals respectively. Compared with Xiahou Yuan, the general of Zhengxi who unfortunately fell in Dingjun Mountain, Cao Ren, the former general of Zhengdong, is now the head of the military attachés, and he can be regarded as a very human minister. But the two veterans, Zhang Liao and Cao Ren, have also come to the end of their lives, and they died within a year.
After the death of the older generation of generals, the cronyistic Cao Wei camp has actually begun to quietly decline. In 218, Cao Zhen, who was still a partial general, rose like a rocket, and he worshiped the general in only four years. Other second-rate generals such as Cao Xiu and Xiahou Shang, who were not active in the past, have also risen to the rank of general of Zhengdong and Zhengnan, surpassing veterans such as Zhang He and Xu Huang.
Although Cao Pi had a small victory in the battle against Wu, his overall strategy ended in failure, not only failed to take the nine counties of Jingxiang, but instead contributed to the reunion of Shu and Wu. In fact, he could endure it for another three or two years, and wait until Shu and Wu were both defeated before they took action to clean up the mess, and the main cause of his defeat was Emperor Wei Wen himself.
Cao Pi only ascended the throne in 220, but due to poor health, he died of illness in 226 at the age of 40. At the beginning of his tenure, he realized that his body could not last long, and his father Cao Ying's lifelong literary and martial arts strategy became a huge burden on his shoulders. At this time, he thought that he could only prove his worth by taking Jingzhou, which his father had not been able to obtain during his lifetime, so he hurriedly went to war.
In addition, he believed that he had no status in the hearts of veterans, so he relied more on the second-rate generals such as the Cao family and the Xiahou family, who were originally unknown. For example, Cao Xiu, the general of the Eastern Expedition, was the main general, but Zhang Liao, the head of the five good generals, could only be reduced to his deputy, and this group of people went to attack the entrance of the cave where the Eastern Wu general Lu Fan was stationed. And the attack on Jiangling on the side of Nanjun was also led by Xiahou Shang, the general of the expedition to the south, supplemented by Zhang He, who knew how to adapt and stabilized the western front in time after Xiahou Yuan's death.
Such an arrangement is actually to let Cao Xiu, Xiahou Shang and others enjoy the exploits of Zhang Liao and Zhang He, so that these mediocre talents who lack actual combat experience can only become a constraint for veterans, which is not conducive to on-the-spot play and strategic deployment.
Cao Pi's strategy was not only frustrated on the southern front, but also almost lost in Guanzhong. He let Cao Zhen and Zhang He, the generals who had originally guarded the Western Front, go south to Jingzhou, so that the Western Front was empty, and in 228 Zhuge Liang, who had been preparing for many years, seized a gap and began his Northern Expedition against Qishan.
Fortunately, Zhuge Liang himself made a mistake and appointed Ma Tan, who was talking on paper, to guard the street pavilion, so that Zhang He successfully won this key point, opening the way for Cao Wei's army to re-enter the Western Front. Otherwise, half of Cao Wei's western front will change hands, and the gate of Guanzhong will be opened, so that Zhuge Liang can threaten the Central Plains at any time, and eventually lead to the rewriting of the history of the Three Kingdoms......
Retracting Feifei's thoughts, Sima Fuqiang could basically determine the content of this battle. If the Donghai team did continue the battle of Cao Wei's Western Front as he had expected, then this trip they should have followed Zhang He to the southern county of Jingzhou in September 222, and participated in the Battle of Jiangling Zhongzhou. Coach Xiahou Shang, deputy coach Zhang He.
The group walked into the big tent of the Chinese army, and Huang Zhi, as the chief dreamer of Cao Wei's camp, entered alone. The rest of them did not have sufficient authority to hold official positions, so they could only wait outside as personal soldiers.
Huang Zhi entered the big tent after being reported, and saw a strange man sitting in the middle handsome seat, with a white and elegant face, like a civil official, lacking the fierce spirit of birth and death. I heard Sima Fuqiang guess just now that if his expectations were right, this person should be the amorous seed of Xiahou Shang, who was ill because of the death of his concubine in 224.
Xiahou Shang's so-called military merits are that during his tenure as the general of Zhengnan to lead the history of Jingzhou, he was fortunate to have Meng Da and Shen Tan betrayed Shu and dedicated the three counties of Shangyong to him, thus accumulating "military merits" and being promoted to the general of Zhengnan. Cao Pi was able to appoint such a person as the leading coach, how could he fight a good battle, it was really a self-digging grave.
When Xiahou Shang saw Huang Zhi enter the account, his eyes inadvertently showed a little hostility, and he was full of incomprehension when he was seen by the "counselor" who had been paying attention to him. Even if it was the first time they met, no matter how they said it, they were also staff members of the same camp, and it was completely impossible for Huang Zhi to threaten the position of the other party's general Zhengnan, so why was he so hostile.
Huang Zhi didn't know that the punishment of "raising the hostility of all forces by one level" had already been reflected in Xiahou Shang's performance at the moment.
