Chapter 68 carelessly lost Jingzhou

"One Tiger and One Qilin" is talking about Sun Jian and Jiang Wei, although Sun Jian claims to be the descendant of Sun Wu, the master of the art of war, but when it was passed on to his generation, the family situation had become normal, and he had to go south and north with his father. Once encountered a large group of pirates, all the people were very afraid, 17-year-old Sun Jian went forward alone, killed the leader of the pirates with a knife, repelled the entire group of pirates, and later led the troops to revolt, so that Dong Zhuo was also afraid, and was known as the "Jiangdong Tiger". ”

Jiang Wei is known as "Youlin", inherited Zhuge Liang's legacy and repeatedly went north to the Central Plains, before Cao Wei invaded Shu Han, he wrote a warning to Liu Chan in advance, and suggested that the armament should be strengthened on the key road, but Liu Chan did not care, only cared about fun, and eventually led to the destruction of Shu Han. After Liu Chan was captured, Jiang Wei still did not lose heart, gathered strength and incited the Cao Wei leaders to rebel, wanting to revive Shu Han, but was eventually killed in the chaos. ”

And in the Three Kingdoms, there are countless such celebrities, such as "Red Rabbit in the Horse" Lu Bu, "Victorious General" Zhao Yun, "Martial Saint" Guan Yu and other celebrities through the ages, as well as Diao Chan, who is known as the "first beauty", is also handed down to future generations. ”

Li Shimin: During the Three Kingdoms period, there were indeed a lot of talents, but it is a pity that Cao Cao laid down all the rivers and mountains made wedding dresses for others.

Zhu Yuanzhang: That's not good either! If you take the country, you will still be defeated by future generations.

Cao Cao really couldn't sit still at this time, Miss Zhang said that when he slaughtered the city, he was a little remorseful, he killed all the people, and he could only be careful when dealing with things in the future, he didn't have to repent of him, he wanted to be king, he had to be ruthless enough, but what did he call the wedding dress he made for others? Could it be that Liu Bei swallowed it, so that he could compete with my Wei State, and Wu State was still far behind.

What was said on the barrage is indeed true, it can only be said that this one "can pretend", pretending well! ”

"The situation of the Three Kingdoms is not in Cao Cao, but after Cao Pi became emperor, although it is not as high as Cao Cao's merits, his achievements are also very good, like our Han Wu Emperor Liu Che, no matter how great his achievements in his early years are, he can't stop his mediocrity in his later years."

"But let's return to the topic, this time it's about Cao Cao, not Liu Che, and continue to talk about what Cao Pi did after Cao Cao's death."

Liu Che: ......

The topics were all pulled out, and my heart was in my throat, so I didn't say it.

Before Cao Pi became emperor, although the tripartite forces of Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan had been fighting each other, the main struggle had always come from Cao Cao and Liu Bei. On the other hand, Soochow has always acted almost as either a bystander, or because of its own interests, temporarily formed a short-term alliance with one of Cao Cao or Liu Bei, and dealt with the other force together, and there was almost never a case of a major war against one side alone. ”

But after Cao Pi became emperor, all this changed dramatically, and the situation in the entire Three Kingdoms changed abruptly. The war of the forces of the Three Kingdoms gradually began to tilt towards Soochow. Cao Wei did not focus on Shu Han, but launched one onslaught after another against Eastern Wu. ”

In the first month of the first year of Yankang, Cao Cao died in Luoyang, and Cao Pi succeeded to the prime minister and King Wei from Yecheng to Luoyang, and rebuilt An for 25 years as the first year of Yankang. In October of the first year of Yankang, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty officially gave up the throne, and after Cao Pi resigned three times, he was called the emperor on the Zen platform and changed to the beginning of the Huang Dynasty. As a result, Cao Pi officially ascended the throne as emperor, prompting Cao Wei to replace the Eastern Han Dynasty. After ascending the throne, Cao Pi naturally hoped to realize Cao Cao's long-cherished wish to dominate the world. ”

"So, after Cao Pi became emperor, why did he give up the confrontation with his old enemy, Shu Han, and instead put more energy on Dongwu, which has always been more unknown than other countries?"

"Because Guan Yu's carelessness lost Jingzhou, after the Battle of Jingzhou and the Battle of Yiling, the power of Eastern Wu is on the rise, on the contrary, Shu Han is the weakest one, if this momentum cannot be contained, the threat of Eastern Wu to Cao Wei is obviously relatively large."

"If Soochow wants to attack Soochow, it can either start from Jingzhou or send troops from Jianghuai. However, if Shu Han wants to attack the hinterland of Cao Wei, he needs to pass through Yongliang first, then attack Guanzhong, and finally point directly to Luoyang, which is almost an impossible goal considering the strength of Shu Han. ”

"And Shu Han is easy to defend and difficult to attack, Cao Cao also tried to fight with Shu Han before his death, and sent Xiahou Yuan to guard Hanzhong, but was attacked by Huang Zhong, and even Xiahou Yuan, a capable general, was killed."

Although Cao Pi also understood that the strength of Shu Han was very weak, the terrain in Hanzhong was complex, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it was not suitable for large-scale attacks at all. Even if you eat Shu Han in the end, you will definitely pay a great price. ”

This is a thankless option for Cao Pi, who has just ascended the throne and the situation is unstable. What's more, at this time, Shu Han was defeated by Sun Quan, and it was impossible to threaten him for the time being, so Cao Pi gave up attacking Shu Han. ”

"Especially after Guan Yu carelessly lost the battles of Jingzhou and Yiling, Shu Han was already a mud bodhisattva crossing the river and it was difficult to protect himself, how could he have any ability to threaten Cao Wei. Therefore, from Cao Pi's point of view, Shu Han will not threaten Cao Wei in the short term, but if Eastern Wu is not weakened, it is likely to continue to strengthen, which is a real and urgent threat. ”

"It's just that I attacked Wu three times, and I was easily defused by the other party."

"It's a pity that the plan is in the sky, after the battle of Yiling, the Cao army has the upper hand and has broken through the core city of Wu, at this critical moment, Cao Pi actually got seriously ill, and the defense of Eastern Wu was extremely stubborn. Therefore, Cao Pi could only shake hands with Dongwu and make peace, and the army was dismissed, and the war was a draw. ”

"The second time is that Liu Bei died, Liu Chan ascended the throne, for the friendship between the two countries, Zhuge Liang personally went to Wu to seek peace, the two countries shook hands and made peace, and attacked Wei together, which made Cao Pi angry, and sent troops to attack, but unfortunately after going to Jinling, it happened to be stormy, and there were a variety of suspicious walls on the road, so he had to retreat for fear of an ambush on the opposite side."

"The third Battle of Shiting was a major battle between the two countries over the Jianghuai region. This battle was deceived by the Cao army because of Wu Guo's strategy, and the Cao army in the plan naturally did not get the benefits, Cao Xiu was deeply encircled, and it was still the reinforcements behind him who were able to retreat with a group of remnants, and the battle was lost again. ”

"Cao Pi really wants to complete the great cause of unification that Cao Cao did not complete, he personally conquered Eastern Wu three times, but they were easily resolved by Sun Quan, Cao Pi was too far away from Sun Quan, and he really responded to Cao Cao's words - giving birth to a son should be like Sun Zhongmou!"
