"My original intention for this surprise attack was to quickly go down Lanzhou, go north along the Yellow River, and go straight to Xingqing Mansion, first turn the nest of the Xixia people upside down, and then use his means to break them one by one!"

Lao Cao pointed to the map and said lightly.

Lanzhou to Yinchuan, one on the left side of the river, one on the right side of the river, eight or nine hundred miles apart, and the mountains are difficult to travel.

The reason why Lao Cao was bent on robbing Lanzhou was precisely to go north along the waterway and reach Xingqing Mansion directly.

"The Song Dynasty attacked Xia, and there were many precedents." Lao Cao sighed: "I look at the previous battles, often several years of preparation, several troops, hundreds of thousands of people in armor to fight, what is the result?" It's probably just a win or a loser. ”

Shaking his head slightly: "In my opinion, the Song and Xia Hundred Years of Campaign, the eight characters can be summed up, that is, 'protracted, laborious and costly.'" ’”

The fluttering eight words summarize the efforts of countless heroes over the past hundred years, countless blood and shouts, glory and loss.

As generals of the Western Army, Qu Duan and Wang Yan glanced at each other subconsciously, and they both showed disbelief.

Cao Cao saw it in his eyes and smiled lightly: "Since I have made this wild statement, there must be a reason......

He took a deep breath and said solemnly: "I think that the Western Army and even the Song Dynasty have dealt with the Western Xia, and the root of the mistake lies in the fact that none of the princes in the court has ever realized that he is only one of the Hus. ”

Lao Cao stretched out his hand and quickly drew circles on the map, some large, some small, and more often, they overlapped each other in similar areas.

On the other hand, he said casually: "Xiongnu, Donghu, Xianbei, Wuhuan, Tuguhun, Rouran, Turkic, Tubo, Ya, Uighur...... Khitan, party item! ”

After saying that, he suddenly slapped his palm on the picture: "Do you see it?" ”

Everyone looked at each other, and no one had words, obviously not understanding what Lao Cao meant.

Lao Cao looked at everyone, and in his eyes, if there was a flame rolling: "All the beards, the weeds!" Even if he was once grounded in the sky, he could not escape spring life and autumn death, frost and withering! Even if there is a spring breeze blowing and growing, it is still shallow and rootless! ”

Speaking of this, Cao Cao was already full of emotion: "Wait until today, remember, all the beards, weeds!" ”

"And our generation of Han people are like rocks, like giant trees, like mountains, like big rivers!"

"The river has a source, and the mountain has roots!"

"What is the source? It is the blood of our ancestors that flows from generation to generation in our bodies! ”

"What is the root? It is a sage book in our hearts, with brilliant words! ”

Lao Cao's voice is like thunder, rolling in the hall, everyone listens to it, deafening, can't help but have sour eyes and hot blood, and can't wait to look up to the sky and howl.

Lao Cao's voice became more and more sick: "My Han family is fighting for Zhuhu, do you want to come and go with him, see and dismantle the moves?" ”

He laughed and shouted: "In the past, the Han family was in decline, and there were dragons and snakes from the four fields, competing for hegemony with each other, and doing everything!" From time to time, there were Qiang Hu barbarians, thinking that the Han family was infighting, and there was no time to take care of him, so they all got up and wanted to fight for the Central Plains, but at that time, the heroes, with a little attention, swept him away at will, and this was still the time when the national strength was very small! ”

"If it's when the Han family is prosperous!"

About between the words, he touched the old dream of the general Zhengxi, and Lao Cao's face suddenly turned red, and even his voice trembled slightly.

"When the Han Dynasty was prosperous, the voice of 'although the strong man who committed a crime was far away, he would be punished' shocked the world! My generation of Han is looking for a marquis, how can the mountains and rivers be far away? ”

He looked closely at the bird's picture, as if he wanted to find a place, but he couldn't find it for a long time.

Laughing at himself, he simply raised his head and stretched out his hand to the northwest: "Here for five thousand miles, there is a mountain named Yanran, which is the place where Bangu carved Shi Legong!" ”

and pointed to the west: "Ban Gu's brother Ban Chao, led thirty-six people out of the fortress, passed the onion collar, reached the county, turned to the side, the battle must be the first to climb, in and out of twenty-two years, swept fifty-six countries, pacified the Western Regions, and sealed the marquis Dingyuan!" ”

Onion leaders, Pamirs also, county people, Hindu Kush also.

Lao Cao let out a long breath, looked at everyone one by one, lowered his voice, and said lightly: "Brothers, think about it, it seems that Ban Gu and Ban Chao brothers, do you also see Hu Er's moves?" seems to be competing for hegemony at the end of the Han Dynasty, do you also come and go with Hu'er? ”

"Mosquitoes suck blood, flies are noisy, there's nothing to think about, just slap it away!"

Lao Cao's words, although everyone in the tent are all heroes who are reckless and righteous, it is actually difficult to truly and completely understand.

About 800 years later, there may be a poem that can match his state of mind at this moment.

It's really "a little globe, a few flies hitting a wall." Buzzing, a few poignant, a few sobbing! …… The four seas are churning, the clouds and water are angry, and the five continents are shaking and the wind and thunder are fierce. We must sweep away all pests and pests, and we will be invincible. ”

Although the heroes do not have Lao Cao's eyes spanning thousands of years, nor do they have the confidence and arrogance left by strong men, they are also heroes after all, although they can't fully understand, they are also excited by him.

"Mr. Jin Jian" suddenly spoke: "I know what my brother means!" The Western Xia called for blood sucking, and I will make a slap in the face, and now the Tubo, Uighur, Zaqiang and other tribes also dare to trample on the prestige of my Han people, so I will slap them again! ”

"Hahahaha!" Cao Cao laughed: "It is worthy of Mr. Jin Jian!" ”

He looked at the map, in the west and north of Lanzhou, and clicked on each other: "Although Wu is not talented, he also wants to follow the example of the sages, and now he not only wants to fight Xingqing Mansion, but also to make them grass mustard and know what the majesty of the Han family is!" ”

"I'm going to divide my troops!"

"At present, the soldiers and horses are more than 2,000 people I brought back from the battle against Youyun, and there are 10,000 Western Army and 20,000 Jishan Army!"

"I want to transfer 10,000 Jishan Army, together with 5,000 Western Army, to form the Western Route Army, with Li Zhu as the main general, Ma Xian, Wang Yan, Wu Jue, and Wu Ling as deputy generals, go along the west of the river, first recover Huangzhou and Xining Prefecture, and then attack Suzhou, Guazhou, and Shazhou, and even take back Yumen Pass!"

Shazhou, Dunhuang also.

Li Zhu's thin face was flushed with a hint of obvious flushing, and he solemnly hugged his fists and said, "Brother is so trusted!" Li Zhu dares to disobey? ”

When he wandered the rivers and lakes and bewitched Wang Qing to rebel, didn't he have the ambition to make contributions in his heart?

At this moment, Lao Cao ordered him to be the main general to recover the homeland of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and the agitation in his chest was like a sea tide.

Lao Cao stared at Li Zhu's eyes: "Now it is not a prosperous age, if you solve the Western Xia Kingdom, I will go back to deal with Jin Liao, these fifteen thousand people will be given to you, and there will be follow-up reinforcements." ”

Li Zhu pondered for a moment and met Cao Cao's gaze: "I want the right to be arbitrary!" ”

Cao Cao smiled: "Outside, all authority is in your hands." ”

Li Zhu said: "If Hu people are recruited as military generals, can the rewards and punishments be equivalent to those of Han people?" ”

Cao Cao said: "First, those who enter China are Huaxia, and second, all authority is in your hands." ”

Li Zhu showed a hot smile: "In this case, Yumen Pass may not be the end, Ban Dingyuan can go to the onion and county with thirty-six people, and my brother will give me ten thousand five elite soldiers, why can't I go?" ”

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes, nodded and said, "If that's the case, you should be the Duke of Dingyuan!" ”

Stretched out his finger to Ma Xun, Wang Yan and other five generals: "You and other generals, want to be thousands of miles away, build no merit, if you dare not go, then follow me to Xingqing Mansion, if you dare to go with him, once you succeed, you will have the share of the prince." ”

Ma Wei laughed: "Brother, I am a thief in Huaixi, born to be scolded by the world, and it is difficult to die in the ancestral grave, and now my brother has given the road of feudalism, how can I not take this experience?" ”

Wang Yan, Wu Jue, and Wu Ling all smiled and said: "Brother Ma is a strong man, and he is still a marquis, not to mention me and other generals?" This time, I will kill my brother to the end of the day! ”

Cao Cao laughed: "Big husband, it should be like this!" Remember, all the way, 'plough its court, sweep its land, and put it in the county!' ’”

He also said: "My headquarters of people, 10,000 Jishan Army, 5,000 Western Army, a total of more than 17,000 people, is the North Route Army, from now on, search ships, build rafts, three days later along the north of the river, surprise attack Xingqing Mansion." ”

As soon as the word is spoken, the rest of the people are all claiming!

There are divisions: Jin Jianxi conquered the Han and Tang Dynasties, and the divine sword bloomed in the north. Huaixi Hawker Jiangnan Han, Northwest to show its sharpness.

I actually sat down early today, earlier than usual, and I thought that I could write five or six thousand words, write and change and check and make up, and I wrote it just now, why did I erase it so much?

I was shocked...... I'm sorry.
