Volume 1: Xu Du Fengyun Chapter 74: Strategy
Sure enough, after not much time in Runan, the henchmen of Cao Gong in Liu Bei's mouth really went to Runan to take charge of defense.
Xiahou Yuan patted his eldest nephew on the shoulder, did not hesitate to praise, and said: "Good boy, you have the ability and the talent, I heard what you did in the two counties as far away as Xudu. As he spoke, he gave Cao Ang a thumbs up, if it weren't for Cao Ang's tent, if there was no one else except for his uncle and nephew, I'm afraid Xiahou Yuan wouldn't have spoken like this.
Cao Ang shook his head and said, "Before, Uncle Cao Ren was still worried that I was doing this in a hurry. Cao Ang was talking about his idea of a land wealth system.
Xiahou Yuan patted him, sat on the couch with him and said, "Although Zixiao is worried, he still put forward his own plan in the letter submitted by Sikong, which can be regarded as adding some to your ideas. However, such projects are always huge, and they can be completed in five years. ”
Cao Ang nodded slowly, obviously agreeing with what Xiahou Yuan said, it is true that he distributed the land to the people in Huainan, but this also gave them the illusion of being rich and steep, Cao Ang did not dare to guarantee that they would be as diligent or as before, whether there would be new heroes among these civilians, these are not yet known, and new policies and systems are needed to improve these worries.
Fortunately, the clan relatives all supported their plans, and if it weren't for Cao Cao's approval, Xiahou Yuan would not have come to govern the large county of Runan, and Cao Ren would not have sat in Huainan, which could only be facilitated with Cao Cao's support. Cao Ang naturally knew it, so to put it bluntly, Cao Cao's views were roughly the same as his own, but he didn't show it, in fact, he recognized his own ideas in his heart.
"There are some things that I still have to tell you before you return to Xudu." Xiahou Yuan looked at Cao Ang with burning eyes and said.
"What does Uncle want to tell me?"
"I see that after you return to Xu Du, there will be an impeachment of you." Xiahou Yuan opened his mouth slightly mockingly, Cao Ang naturally knew who Xiahou Yuan's taunt was probably the target.
What some people agree with, there will naturally be people who oppose it. After Xiahou Yuan's story, Cao Ang knew that there were those characters in the opposition army this time, in addition to the imperial party, the Hanoi Shi clan also joined the opposition army without accident, and after Cao Ang left, Cao Pi even wrote a strategy and handed it to Cao Cao, which roughly means that the Shi clan is the existence of sharing honor and disgrace with Cao Cao, relying on each other, and no one can leave anyone, but, according to Xiahou Yuan, he is 100% sure that the strategy is definitely behind the guidance of a master.
This is the complete negation of Cao Ang's plan that has just come out, an imperial party is enough to make Cao Cao anxious, plus such a behemoth as the Hanoi Shi clan, and then the second son is also used as a knife by others to arch the fire, Cao Cao's pressure is great.
"I'd love to know what Zihuan said about me in the strategy he presented to his father, can my uncle tell me?" Xiahou Yuan nodded at him, took out a silk cloth from his arms, and said: "This is Sikong personally rubbing, once said that if you don't mention it, you won't let me hand it over to you, how do you know that you really mentioned it." "Handed over to Cao Ang, the latter spread out and skimmed roughly, describing the role of the scholar family throughout the text, and even completely ignoring or even ignoring, when Cao Cao started, the help of the clan relatives to Cao Cao almost bluntly said that if there was no scholar to help Cao Cao, there would definitely be no today.
And the article is still implicitly pointing out that someone harbored evil intentions to bewitch Cao Ang to make his brother make such thoughts, "He didn't scold me directly." Cao Ang smiled coldly, I have to say that Cao Pi has really followed the Shi family intimately, and he doesn't want to think about it, even if people really support him in the end, he doesn't have any opinions, and the family will do whatever he says, is that the superior? That's a poor puppet!
Looking at the handwriting, there is no doubt that it is written by Cao Pi, but the sentences in it, the style is categorically not Cao Pi's, this is obviously the scholar deliberately followed Cao Pi's hand to put out his own interests, and Cao Cao "negotiated", this kind of almost undisguised meaning, it is obvious that they are already very dissatisfied, but who do they think they are? It is true that in Cao Ang's opinion, it is impossible to ignore their power, but they also take themselves too seriously in this way.
"Uncle, do you know how the Yingchuan Xun clan reacted to this?" Cao Ang asked.
Xiahou Yuan's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "I'm talking to you about Hanoi, what are you asking the Xun family to do?" ”
"Without the support of the Xun family, it would be difficult for both of us to succeed." Cao Ang said.
If Cao Cao is regarded as a chairman, the clan forces are the original shareholders, and the Hanoi and Yingchuan clans are the new shareholders. As a staunch supporter of the eldest prince, the original shareholder naturally supported Cao Ang with a clear banner, and at this time, the importance of the other group of shareholders Yingxun was highlighted.
Seeing that Cao Ang grasped the main point very accurately, Xiahou Yuan was completely relieved, "I was afraid that after you knew about the matter, you would go to Xu Du to act recklessly, but it turned out that you already had a good idea." ”
"Without the full support of my uncles, I would not be able to succeed even if I am a paper-based demon." Cao Ang shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Come, tell Uncle what your plan is?" Xiahou Yuan asked.
Cao Ang wanted to use the conclusion of share dilution to tell Xiahou Yuan, first, that he had not studied finance and could not describe, and secondly, because he had not been involved in the modern economy, he could not give Xiahou Yuan an intuitive description, so he thought for a moment and said: "My marriage with the Zhuge family is the breaking point." This has to mention Cao Cao's forward-looking, although the internal tripartite checks and balances are stable, but they are also uncomfortable, Cao Cao still needs a force to support himself, so he took a fancy to the Zhuge family who escaped into Jingxiang.
intercepted Hu Kuai's family and wanted to accept Zhuge Xin as his daughter-in-law, and at this time, the Kuai family also intended to use Cao Cao's influence in the Central Plains to expand the interests of his family, and let his family's sister-in-law Kuai Qi marry Zhuge Xin's sister Zhuge Ling as his wife, so the relationship between the Cao family and the Kuai family at that time became an alliance of interests through the relationship between the Zhuge family.
The Kuai family can use the power of the Cao family to seek benefits in the Central Plains, and the Cao family can also use the hands of the Kuai family to intervene in their own political game.
In this way, with the support of the clan relatives and the Kuai family, if Cao Cao wants to do anything, not to mention willfulness, at least even if the Yingchuan Xun clan really stands with the families in Hanoi one day and disagrees with his own political opinions, he can also fight with reason, and it is not yet known who will lose and who will win. The intervention of the Kuai family will not be in line with Cao's operation, because it will be Cao Cao who will become the guide of the Kuai family and open up its interests in the Central Plains. Therefore, the Kuai family will fully support Cao Cao.
And the Xun family also understood this, and when the Hanoi family was clearly opposed, the Xun family did not stand on the opposite side of Cao Cao but was rarely silent. Because no matter whether the Xun family represented by Xun Yu and Xun Yu is for or against, Cao Cao will incorporate part of the strength of the Kuai family into his own interest alliance, and it is generally said that this cake will not always be shared by these families, and the bigger the cake is, the more it will be shared. This cannot be stopped, even if it can be stopped for a while, it cannot be stopped for a lifetime.
Of course, as Cao Cao's power becomes stronger and stronger, the fruits of many gainers will be more and more abundant.
Hearing Cao Ang's eloquent talk, Xiahou Yuan's eyes widened in astonishment, he really didn't expect that the situation here would be so complicated, and Cao Ang was keenly aware of this, followed his father's train of thought, and made the first knife to the family.
"Aren't all scholars paying attention to helping the world? If you compete with the people for profit, what kind of way can you help the world? "To deal with them, Cao Ang has a number of roads. Previously, Xiahou Yuan and others were still worried that Cao Ang was alone and would not be able to parry, but at this moment, I saw that he was talking eloquently, and his head was Dao, how could he be a little cowardly.
On the other hand, what about Cao Pi? is not like Cao Ang at all, he knows how his father thinks and doesn't say anything, and he has to go against his father. It's really ......, Xiahou Yuan couldn't help but shake his head.
"Why did my uncle shake his head, because he thought there was something wrong with what his nephew said?" Cao Ang asked in surprise, wondering in his heart whether it was because Xiahou Yuan felt that he was taking it too seriously, or if he had something unclear about himself, which caused Xiahou Yuan to shake his head and deny his opinion.
"You're right, but it's not because of you, but it's also about you." Xiahou Yuan said.
Cao Ang didn't understand the meaning of Xiahou Yuan's words, so he arched his hand and said, "Please also ask my uncle to make it clear." Xiahou Yuan got up and patted Cao Ang's hands and said, "What I mean by this is that no matter what you do in the future, you must think clearly and understand, you are a brother, don't go too far in everything." What your father dislikes the most is the ...... between brothers" Even after saying this, Xiahou Yuan believes that Cao Ang will understand, Cao Pi's stupid tricks are completely drinking to quench his thirst, and Xiahou Yuan believes that going against Cao Ang is definitely a stupid thing that Cao Pi has done in his life.
Cao Ang just smiled, nodded and didn't promise anything, he naturally understood what Xiahou Yuan meant, understood his father's concerns, he didn't need to do things that made Cao Cao jealous, but then again, the eldest brother is like a father, as the eldest brother, it is normal to beat his younger brother from time to time.
Xiahou Yuan's discussion with Cao Ang today, he had a certain number in his heart, so he was naturally relieved, took Cao Ang's hand, went out of the tent, and instructed the soldiers to hold a celebration banquet for the occupation of Runan, so that they would be happy and lively.
