Chapter 179 Cao Cao: On martial arts strategy, on politics, can you compare to drama?

Cao Cao's gaze fell on Xiahoudun, who was taller than him.

He stretched out his hand, decisively grabbed the other party's wrist, and directly brought the other party to Xiahou Yuan and the others.

Then, sit cross-legged on the ground.

"Yuan Rang, Miaocai!"

"You are all my Cao Cao's own brothers, this is a blood connection!"

"I thought you should know what was going on in my heart!"

"since the Yellow Turban, you follow me, how can I not understand the friendship between you and me in my heart!"

"Fang Jincao can come to this step, which step is not to wait for the brothers to work hard and sweat to stand on top of this high position in the court!"

"It's just that your vision is limited after all!"

"Fang is down today, the princes are together, although you can fight well, but there are countless good fighters in this world!"

Cao Cao's voice paused, and he looked up at Xiahoudun in front of him.

"Yuan Rang, I treat Xi Yu kindly, because his talents and strategies are all superior!"

"Brother is not partial to him, but has to be like this!"

"All the things that Fengyi has done before that play, you have heard of it, dare to ask Yuan Rang, if I put that play and ignore it!"

"And to be able to take into account the agricultural affairs of Yan and Xu, to ensure that even if it is a year of natural disasters, it can also make the land of the two states not trapped by any disaster?

Or, wait for something new. ”

"It's just that the public opinion of the Han newspaper only says, you are in control?"

"What's more, the new policy strategy formulated by Xi Yu is without that Xi Yu, and you can guarantee that once the new deal goes wrong, you can easily deal with it!"

Cao Cao's words were earnest, and he directly expressed the benefits and disadvantages.

This kung fu, Xiahou and the others were silent.

There are some things that they really can't handle, although they can also plan the farming thing.

However, who can guarantee that in such a year of natural disasters, there will be no large-scale disasters between different places.

And such a thing can be played!

Because of the lack of water, the other party can make something like a water wheel!

Because of the frost disaster, the other party was able to invent a refined stone nirvana, and all of them were beneficiaries of all these things.

If they were to be given certain things, they wouldn't have been able to do it as easily as Xi Yu.

"Yuan Rang, Fang is undecided today, and our eyes still need to look at the long run!"

"Now Yuan Shao in the north is still a big enemy of us, and Liu Biao, Yuan Shu and others in the south cannot be underestimated!"

"Today's Xuchang, can't be messed up!"

"Cao doesn't want to let your brothers be aggrieved, but now, there is no way!"

"If Cao can be aggrieved for you, Cao will voluntarily replace you with a certain body!"

Cao Cao's words were sincere, and the words pointed directly to the hearts of Xiahoudun and several people.

In this case, several people opened their mouths but couldn't say anything.

Xiahou Yuan was a little moved, and his figure couldn't help but bow to Cao Cao: "It's my fault, I don't know what my brother is like this!" ”

Xiahou Yuan bowed, and Cao Hong and others also spoke out.

It was Xiahoudun's kung fu, and a crystal light began to flicker in the tiger's eyes.

"Big brother, I was wrong!"

……

After some heart-to-heart outspokenness, Cao Cao can be regarded as stabilizing Xiahoudun and others.

It wasn't until after a few people left that Cao Cao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Just as he told Xiahoudun and others.

Now he is inseparable from the assistance of Xi Yu.

If there is no drama, how can today's autumn harvest be so effective.

It seems that Yuan Shao, this year's autumn harvest, the grain is not much different from the land of the two states.

And all of this is because of the drama.

What's more, things such as Xiyu's improved papermaking have brought a lot of buffers to Cao Cao's economy.

Now, their situation is better than when they were in the army, and I don't know how much better it is.

At the beginning, when he had no money to pay his soldiers, he even deliberately set up a team to dig people's ancestral graves, but now, there is a drama, but the money is only a lot more.

Cao Cao couldn't help but look out through the window of the main hall.

When will we be able to calm down the world in this troubled world, and how long will it take?

He wasn't sure.

But he knew that if there was no drama, if he wanted to calm the world, it would definitely take longer, longer!

There was silence in the main hall.

After Xiahoudun and the others left, Cao Cao no longer had the intention of resting.

He was a little stunned, but at this moment, Xiahoudun and the others had not left for a long time, but Xu Chu outside came in to inform him that Cao Ren was coming.

Hearing that Cao Ren was coming, Cao Cao had some helplessness on his face.

He thought that Cao Ren was also the same as Xiahoudun and others, thinking about what he said just now, he was afraid that he was going to say it again.

After beckoning Xu Chu to let Cao Ren in, Cao Cao sat on the straw mat and waited for Cao Ren.

When Cao Ren came in, the look on the other party's face was normal.

This kung fu Cao Ren gave a salute to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao nodded, and Cao Ren sat down opposite Cao Cao slowly.

"What happened to Zixiao?"

Cao Cao opened his mouth to ask, and then smiled: "Could it be like Yuan Rang and others?" ”

Hearing this, Cao Ren subconsciously shook his head.

He is different from Xiahoudun and others, Cao Ren is more aware of the ability to play Yu.

Previously, when he was stationed in Xuzhou, when Xi Yu was transporting military rations, there was contact between the two.

At that time, Xi Yu gave him a lot of guidance on how to deal with Xuzhou's affairs.

And because he has been stationed in Xuzhou for a long time in the past two years, there is no direct conflict or contradiction between him and Xi Yu.

What's more, there are some things that Cao Ren has been following Cao Cao for a long time, and he can see farther and farther.

"Brother, I'm here, it's not like this!"

"But I want to ask my brother, the autumn harvest will end soon, I don't know how to arrange my brother's troops after the autumn harvest?"

???

Cao Ren opened his mouth, and when he heard that it was about the expedition, Cao Cao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Cao Ren still understands himself better.

I don't want Xiahoudun and others, sometimes I can't think of so much in my head.

"After this autumn harvest, I intend to go west again, first take the place of the division, and then go north, and take Hanoi in one go!"

"In this way, although we are fully bordered by Yuan Shao's region, we can also ensure that Xuchang is worry-free!"

If he took the Hanoi area, Cao Cao would not have to worry about Yuan Shao taking advantage of the Hanoi area to march to Xuchang.

In this way, the border is fully connected, but it can also be fully guarded against the other party.

On the other hand, after taking the Hanoi area, he was able to concentrate on advancing westward and completely taking the entire Guanzhong Chang'an.

Then he will be able to conquer the east and west.

Whether it was to choose to start a war with Yuan Shao in the north first, or to go south to deal with Liu Biao, Yuan Shu and others.

For him, it was a good choice.

After saying this, Cao Cao paused again, and his eyebrows trembled slightly.

"However, if there is a war after this autumn harvest, I expect that this war may not end for a while."

"If you want to come to this battle, I'm afraid it will drag on until the end of the year at the earliest."

"Now that the baggage battalion has left the Cao army, the grain and grass still need to be re-coordinated!"

After the words fell, Cao Ren nodded subconsciously.

He did not have the slightest opinion on the arrangement of the expedition.

However, the purpose of his coming to Cao Cao this time is not only this, on the one hand, he has been stationed in Xuzhou for two years.

Now that he has returned to Xuchang, he wants to push this matter out and let Lao Cao go to Xuzhou to garrison with another person.

This time, he intended to follow Cao Cao westward.

On the other hand, of course, it's a matter of banter.

"Brother, I also know about Yuan Rang and others, although I understand what my brother thinks, but some things are suppressed today, what if they rise again in the future?"

After all, the contradiction has already arisen, and it has been resolved for a while, but how to solve it next time.

Between the Cao clan and Xi Yu, in the final analysis, it is because of the issue of interests.

Now that Cao Cao's power is expanding, it stands to reason that Xiahoudun and others are also beneficiaries of this.

It was nothing, but Xi Yu benefited more.

After this comparison, it seems extremely normal for Xiahoudun and others to be unconvinced.

It's just that it's nothing now, but in the future!

After all, Cao Cao's power will continue to grow little by little, and the bigger the cake, the more careful Cao Cao must be if he wants to divide it.

What then?

"What does Zixiao want to say?"

Cao Cao understood, and thought that the matter was settled, but he never thought that Cao Ren was more direct than Xiahoudun and others.

This is a direct question of what to do with it in the future!

Now because of the problem of interests, the contradictions that arise are easy to solve, but what about later!

Once there are some interests that even Cao Cao himself feels are problematic, how to deal with it!

"Brother, although I have no opinion on Fengyi, I even received the other party's guidance when I was in Xuzhou!"

"But there are some things, in the final analysis, you can't ignore it, Xi Fengyi, for my brother, is an outsider after all!"

"Now he has been promoted to lieutenant, and he is the third prince with his brother, and what about the future!"

"Brother should be on guard!"

After Cao Ren finished speaking, Cao Cao couldn't help but sigh.

Most of the credits established by Xi Yu today are not the military exploits of the generals and the capture of the city, but those that have been of great help to the Jiangshan Society.

These things are seen by discerning people.

He has not performed the drama before, because he knows it in his heart.

It was precisely because Cao Cao knew that he was in a hurry to lead his troops to the battle.

Only by winning more regions and establishing more intuitive merits can we suppress the credit of Xiyu!

Now, he doesn't have the idea of letting Xi Yu follow the expedition.

"What Zixiao said, I know it in my heart!"

"That's right, this expedition, we must take Hanoi and other places!"

"In this way, you can also make contributions!"

Hearing this, Cao Ren nodded.

Since Cao Cao knew in his heart that there were some things, there was no need for him to say more.

He thought of his purpose.

He couldn't help but smile and spoke.

"Brother, this time I went west to conquer Sili and other places, I want to follow my brother to send troops together!"

Cao Ren opened his mouth to ask, and Cao Cao was subconsciously stunned for a moment.

"Zixiao, I just remembered, aren't you still stationed in Xuzhou now, since you returned from the Mid-Autumn Festival, you have been delaying for a long time!"

Cao Cao did not answer Cao Ren's words directly, but directly pointed out the other party's duties.

Speaking of which, Cao Ren's garrison in Xuzhou still made Cao Cao extremely relieved.

Cao Ren is steady, with the other party stationed in Xuzhou, Xuzhou basically doesn't have to worry much about Cao Cao.

However, at the moment, this guy wants to go west with him, this kind of thing still makes Cao Cao hesitate.

"Zixiao, with you stationed in Xuzhou, only for my brother can I lead the troops westward with peace of mind!"

Cao Cao said bluntly, saying that it was precisely because Cao Ren was stationed in Xuzhou that he could rest assured that he could lead his troops to the battle.

Although Cao Ren was a little moved by these words, in the final analysis, he had been in Xuzhou for more than two years.

Although Cao Cao has never forgotten him when he was crowned.

But that's not what Cao Ren wants.

He is only in his thirties now, and it is the prime of life, and following Cao Cao to fight is what he desires in his heart.

As a general, who wants to be only a general who defends the city!

"Brother, I have a proposal!"

"Didn't the soldiers under Yuan Rang and others just be taken away by Xi Yu this time!"

"No, my brother asked Yuan Rang to hand over with me, and Yuan Rang to stay in Xuzhou for the time being!"

"This move, on the one hand, just allows Yuan Rang to supervise the training of recruits in Xuzhou, and on the other hand, it can also make Yuan Rang and Xi Yu farther away!"

"In this way, the contradiction between the two will be less because of this!"

Cao Ren chuckled.

Hearing this, Cao Cao raised his eyes and glanced at the other party.

To be honest, he was quite impressed.

It's really good to do this, and it's okay for Xiahoudun to defend the city.

If the other party is stationed in Xuzhou, he can also rest assured.

On the other hand, as Cao Ren said, transferring Xiahoudun away from Xuchang can also make the contact between the other party and Xi Yu less.

It's a win-win.

"Okay, Zixiao's words are very good!"

Cao Cao immediately made a decision.

The next day, an edict came out in Sikong Mansion, ordering Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan to hand over in Caoren, and named Xiahoudun as the Taishou of Xiapi, so that he could garrison Xuzhou together with Xiahouyuan.

And Xiahoudun, who received the edict, was a little unhappy in an instant.

Handover with Cao Ren?

He was ready to go on the expedition with Cao Cao, but after taking over Cao Cao, he suddenly asked him to go to Xuzhou to garrison.

If it weren't for the fact that Lao Cao had just had a heart-to-heart conversation with him yesterday, he almost thought that Cao Cao deliberately transferred him away!

Xiahoudun was a little unhappy, but now he also understood Cao Cao's thoughts.

However, now that he is handing over Xuzhou with Cao Ren, there must be Cao Ren's sake.

That day, Xiahoudun did not look for Cao Cao, but directly found Cao Ren.

Cao Cao didn't pay attention to this matter.

I just heard Xu Chu tell him that when Xiahoudun left Cao Ren's mansion, he held his head high, and Cao Ren seemed to be closed to the guests.

No one knows what's going on.

However, the matter can be regarded as over.

Two days later, Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan led their soldiers and horses directly from Xuchang to the Xuzhou boundary.

At the same time, I learned that Xiahoudun and others had left Xuchang and went to Xuzhou.

Zhao Yun and the others in the camp couldn't help but look at each other.

Originally, after Xiahoudun looked for Cao Cao, they were still a little worried.

But I never thought that in the end, Xiahoudun was sent to Xuzhou by Cao Cao, which was quite surprising.

"It seems that Guo Fengxiao's kid is right, Cao Sikong really didn't take this matter to heart!"

Huang Zhong spoke, and Zhao Yun and Dian Wei, who heard this, nodded subconsciously.

Now that Xiahoudun is gone.

Then they don't have to worry about anything.

The 4,000 soldiers recruited still need to be trained, and it is only a day or two before the opening of Xuchang School.

At the same time, the other side.

What happened to Xiahoudun and others, Xi Yu still knows a little.

It's just that he didn't take this matter to heart, and as he expected, Cao Cao didn't look for him because of this matter.

Now, it's the first day of September.

Now the number of scholars in Xuchang has increased a lot, and on the Han newspapers and periodicals, Xi Yu specially published the news.

It is said that the school recruits students, and the age is from seven years old, and there is no limit to the number of students.

This kung fu, the entire Dongcheng District Xuchang School outside the tourist store, everywhere is full of people.

Not only the children of major families, but also the common people, but also their own children outside the Xuchang School to observe.

……

Just when Xi Yu was busy with the enrollment of Xuchang School, he was far away in Wu County, the land of Wu County.

At this time, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce were also paying attention to the affairs of Xuchang School.

"The school held by Fengyi will open in a few days!"

Sun Ce couldn't help frowning when he saw the news published in the Han newspaper.

To be honest, he didn't want to hear the news of Xi Yu at all, but this Han newspaper was really rare.

Each time it will record some of the things that have happened in the Han Dynasty today, along with some scholars' contributions.

In an era when entertainment was extremely poor, this thing has now become a daily must-see for Confucian scholars all over the world.

Even with Sun Ce is no exception.

Every time he watched the contents, he was sometimes even able to gain some insights from the writings of some scholars.

However, in recent times, the most published in this newspaper is the matter of Xuchang School.

Sun Ce couldn't help but complain, the report of Xuchang School occupied a large part of the newspaper, and even the articles he wanted to watch were a little less.

Hearing this, Zhou Yu on the side couldn't help but smile.

At this moment, Zhou Yu's eyes fell on the news about recruiting students in the newspapers and magazines.

"Bo Fu, I've heard you complain about your younger brother recently, and I see that there is a matter of Xuchang School recruiting students in this newspaper."

"No, you will send Zhongmou to that school to study!"

Zhou Yu admonished, Sun Ce, who heard this, was stunned for a moment, and sent his younger brother Sun Quan to Xuchang School?

"Gong Jin, what you said is serious, isn't this quite a hostage to Cao Cao?"

Sun Ce was a little hesitant, he raised his eyes and glanced at Zhou Yu, the expression on the other party's face was not like a joke.

Zhou Yu on the side smiled.

"Why don't you have to worry, you and I can leave safely from that Xuchang, and there is no news so far, which has already proved the character of Xi Fengyi!"

"This time there is drama and righteousness, Zhongmou will be safe!"
