Chapter 1856 Guidance
"Okay." Chen Xi nodded, "There is another thing. The countries in the Western Regions are in turmoil again. The troops of the Wuji Captain are no longer enough to suppress there. Moreover, because we let go for too long in the Western Regions, the countries have already ignored the majesty of the Han Dynasty."
"Hmph, the small countries in the Western Regions actually have the intention of turmoil?" Cao Cao's eyes flashed a cold light. His ambition was the general of the Han Dynasty's Western Expedition, so he naturally had a certain understanding of it. Although he was not in-depth, the vassal states that dared to rebel should be destroyed in Cao Cao's opinion.
"In fact, if we hadn't rushed to the Western Regions a few years ago because we were unable to deal with Chiyang Hou, Meiyang Hou and others, maybe the situation is even worse now." Chen Xi spread his hands.
Cao Cao nodded silently when he heard this. When Li Jue, Guo Si and the others ran, Liu Bei got a lot of benefits. It was precisely because of that benefit that Hua Xiong could complete the final victory in the battle between Yuan and Liu, and directly collapsed Yuan Shao's rear army and laid the foundation for victory.
"Zichuan, then what do you mean?" Liu Bei asked knowingly.
"Send troops, to be honest, no matter what kind of guy's character, the people of Yongliang now still recognize Chiyang Hou. After all, most of Yongliang's current rivers and water networks were organized by him to repair and unblock. If you really get them back, it would be a problem to deal with them." Chen Xi looked thoughtful.
In fact, Li Jue, Guo Si and others ran away so readily back then, and no one went to chase him was this. The millions of people in Yongliang didn’t care what Li Jue did back then. The most profound impression of them was that Li Jue led them to clear the rivers and water nets everywhere, so that they could have food to eat.
This also leads to the fact that although Li Jue did a lot of dirty things, he really wanted to behead the law, and then he should be beheaded and abandoned the body after taking it down. The problem is that Li Jue later did things that benefited millions of people in Yongliang after being commanded by Zhong Yao. If you believe it or not, you will kill Li Jue. At that time, the people would spontaneously protect him.
There were many righteous men in Yan and Zhao, and many people like Yongliang were good, so in the end, Li Jue was out of the way. Under the guidance of the steward of the Li Ru school, he fled to the Western Regions after a lot of money. No one was going to chase and kill him. He even did not issue an order to deprive Li Jue and others of the title.
Cao Cao turned a blind eye in this regard. Li Jue was really holding a talisman at that time. Although he couldn't kill him, he made a fuss about a guy who had little to do with him and had lost his recurrence to the point where the people were resentful under his rule. If you can, it would be better to turn a blind eye.
"Yes." Cao Cao nodded, "It would be better to let him be in the Western Regions, and he would also be able to move his official position to save him from coming back to make trouble. As for what he said, it is not impossible to allocate some troops from Chang'an to him."
Cao Cao was completely in the idea of telling Li Jue and Guo Si not to come back to make trouble. For him, Li Jue, Guo Si and others were also considered waste reuse. Although those three guys were a bit shitty, even Cao Cao fully recognized the ability of these three guys to command troops.
"I mean to teach the 36 countries in the Western Regions a lesson and save them any extra ideas." Chen Xi said casually. That tone did not seem to be about cleaning up many countries, but was like asking what we eat today.
"If this happens, I'm afraid the number of troops required is not a small number of troops." Cao Cao hesitated a little. "Emperor Xiaowu spent a lot of money to attack the Western Regions back then, and the Western Regions were quite far away from us, so it was too difficult to come and go. Even if he won for a while, he would be reluctant to be given up."
