Cao Cao summoned his ministers in Yecheng to discuss the war in Yuyang.
Cao Cao looked at the suspended platform in the distance and said nothing for a while.
It was built when Yuan Shao was still alive, but it was not completed when Yuan Shao died. Originally, Cao Cao planned to continue building it, but now it has stopped.
On the one hand, it was because he had no money, and on the other hand, it was because Cao Cao suddenly felt boring...
Before, Cao Cao wanted to continue building the high platform because Cao Cao wanted to prove something to Yuan Shao. It was also because Cao Cao wanted to express something to those who chose Yuan Shao. However, these have lost their meaning now, and naturally there is no need to continue building them.
.
In comparison, Cao Cao hated these people in Jizhou even more.
This kind of disgust is not because these people in Jizhou chose Yuan Shao at the beginning, nor is it just the obedience of the people in Jizhou, but because these guys in Jizhou think that Jizhou is their family's territory, and they practice it as a matter of course...
What's wrong with a wealthy noble family to this day? Cao Cao wore a brocade court dress with a total of five layers inside and outside. The innermost one was a moon-white coat, exposed on the collar, and the outermost one was red, black and embroidered with gold.
He was sitting in the middle, looking at Guo Jia at the side, and said slowly, after Xiaowu? I remember Xiaowu, especially when he was wearing a crown.
The wealthy families were worried about the country and asked themselves to contribute to the war...
Today is the agreed time, perhaps the start of the final play. Of course Cao Cao has to wear formal clothes. The same goes for Guo Jia, but everyone else has to go to the main courtyard, and Guo Jia can come to Cao Cao first.
.Is Cao Cao considered a big leader? Of course he was the last one to go. What would happen if the leaders were asked to wait for the participants one by one at the venue?
Before you do anything, you still have options.
Once you do it, you have no choice.
Guo Jiagong cupped his hands and said: Maybe Mayi is the beginning.
Mayi... Cao Cao sighed. This period of history was naturally familiar to Cao Cao, but he also heard the implication of Guo Jia, so he glanced at Guo Jia and said, Feng Xiao thought that Ji had a king, Nie Hu
?
Guo Jia cupped his hands and said: Wang, Nie Moxuyou... Ma Yi is already...
Cao Cao turned to look at Guo Jia, frowned and said: "Following one's filial piety means that one will definitely lose?"
Guo Jiaran said: Ming Gong... It is easy to defeat a tile dog, but it is difficult to fall into the trap of a tiger... The only one who worries about this is Ming Gong...
Well, I know it. But the tiger... the tiger... Cao Cao raised his head, Mayi... haha, Mayi... he must finally give it a try!
Before Mayi, the relationship between the Han and the Xiongnu was mainly about marriage, but after Mayi, war was the main theme...
Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia.
Guo Jia also looked at Cao Cao.
A guard soldier came to report that all the participants had arrived...
Cao Cao waved his hand to show that he understood.
Since the hussar can do it... Cao Cao said in a deep voice, someone can do it too! You must know that the bravest person in the world is not the hussar!
Guo Jia was silent and just prostrated on the ground.
Cao Cao stood up, walked to Guo Jia, pulled him up, patted Guo Jia's arm, turned around, tightened the jade belt around his waist, and walked out proudly.
Guo Jia followed Cao Cao, his head lowered, mixed in with the other followers, but his heart was tumbling.
Guo Jia partly agrees with Cao Cao's idea, and partly opposes it. Guo Jia believes that Cao Cao's layout is too big, and if the market is large, various accidents are prone to occur, and there are too many uncontrollable factors. Although Guo Jia has tried his best
Help Cao Cao think about it and check for deficiencies, but after all, there are too many uncontrollable factors. Even Guo Jia cannot guarantee that the plan will go smoothly...
Guo Jia raised his head slightly, glanced at Cao Cao walking in front, then lowered his eyelids and sighed slightly in his heart.
Today, Yuyang is trapped, and the barbarians from Xianbei invade and perish. Many people in Youzhou have been killed, especially Min Zhi. Now we want to raise troops to attack it and save Youzhou from fire and water. What can we do? Cao Cao looked around and said in a deep voice.
.
Everyone in the audience looked at Cui Yan with their eyes.
Cui Yan was like a wooden sculpture, sitting still.
Li Pan gritted his teeth, stood upright, cupped his hands and said: "Ming Gong is above. If you advance lightly with your armor and drive long distance to the north, you may not be able to make any achievements! If you are sick, you will be short of food, and if you are slow, you will be short of future benefits. What's more, it's spring plowing now."
In Weiyang, the crops in the village have not grown long, and the warehouses everywhere are empty. It is really difficult to continue the war! I hope Ming Gong will think twice!
Li Zheng's words were wrong! Guo Jia retorted, "We are not driving far into the desert, nor are we fighting without retreating. We are in danger of Yuyang, the northern hub of Jizhou! Only by winning can we ensure peace and tranquility in Youbei. If we lose, Youbei will fall, and so will Jizhou."
It’s hard to live in peace! Therefore, there is only one battle!
Dare I ask Jijiu, how many men and horses are needed for the Yuyang bandits now, and how much food they need, not to mention that they may not be able to win! If we use this kind of money and food to strengthen Jizhou's border defense, the bandits will not be able to farm, and they will definitely not be able to survive for a long time, and they will retreat in the long run!
Li Pan said, by then the lost ground can be easily regained, just like flipping the palm of one's hand, why bother to mobilize troops now, if we can't achieve success?
Of course, sending troops may not lead to complete victory, but if you sit back and watch, you will definitely be defeated! Guo Jia said it categorically. If Yuyang falls and the people lose their lives, will Li Zheng take the responsibility?
Ha! Li Pan glared at Guo Jia and cursed in his heart. He turned around and did not answer Guo Jia's words. Instead, he cupped his hands and said to Cao Cao, "Ming Gong is above, I was born in Ji and grew up in Ji, so I will take care of the safety of Jizhou."
For my part! If there are any inappropriate words, please forgive me, Lord...
Guo Jia sneered. He knew what Li Pan meant. Of course, most of the people present also understood what Li Pan meant. But once he said it clearly, it no longer meant anything. But Li Pan just said it.
Out.
Cao Cao raised his eyes and stared at Li Pan. His words... meant that he could not send troops to save Yuyang?
Li Pan was silent for a moment, gritted his teeth and said: This is my humble opinion...
Well... Cao Cao responded noncommittally, and then looked at the other people. Dear friends, if you have any other opinions, please feel free to tell me.
Hua Xin slightly raised his hand, Lord. Li Zheng's words may be biased, but he is well-intentioned. Military matters are a matter of great importance to the country and cannot be done carelessly. Nowadays, Yuyang is in chaos and the war situation is tense. If you don't know the enemy or ourselves, and don't know the dangers, you will act rashly.
When sending troops, you are afraid of betraying the way of a military strategist. It is better to postpone sending troops and wait and see how the situation changes. When it becomes clear, it is not too late to start the war again... I hope my lord will learn from it.
Cao Cao also hummed without saying anything, then turned to look at Cui Yan and said: What do you think Ji Gui?
When Cao Cao called his name, Cui Yan naturally could not continue to pretend to be deaf and dumb, so he cupped his hand and said calmly: Guo's words about offering wine were to save the people of Yuyang, which is a good thing.
There is nothing wrong with wanting the stability of Jizhou. What Hua Shizhong said is that he wants to take a consistent strategy and not rely on it... Therefore, I leave it to the Lord Qiankun to decide what strategy to take...
Haha...Cao Cao squinted his eyes, stroked his beard and smiled.
Cao Cao stood up slowly, and everyone looked at him solemnly.
If you fight, you won't be able to win, it's someone's fault...
If you keep it, the ground will be lost and someone’s fault will be...
If you wait and miss the opportunity, it is someone’s fault...
Cao Cao laughed loudly, squinted his eyes, and looked around at everyone. He asked all the ministers, but he couldn't make up his mind. He hesitated and made a decision. This is someone's fault... Do you think so?
The whole house was shocked for a moment!
Some people like to be straightforward, straight and white, preferably with a touch of pink... Uh, that's a cross-over, um, some people are used to fighting in the subtext and like that kind of haziness.
, despise those who always have to expose the black hair between the two lumps of flesh on their chests...
Generally speaking, these two types of people look at each other and hate each other.
In most cases, the two types of people will go their separate ways. If they have different paths and don't agree with each other, they can just be fine. But suddenly one day, the person who likes to be straightforward will come out, stop everyone, and accuse these people of turning around.
It's too brain-consuming and not smooth at all. Everyone should be like me and resist twisting and turning!
Or someone who likes to bend around the corner angrily raised a sign and publicly criticized those things that were so straightforward that they were like an intestine going all the way to the bottom, and the top and bottom smelled like shit...
Interesting?
It's boring.
Just like now, when Cao Cao comes out now, everyone is bored.
I am guilty! Please punish me, Lord...
Cui Yan prostrated himself on the ground, and then a large group of people followed him to prostrate themselves. I am incompetent and cannot share my lord's worries. Please forgive me...
Cao Cao laughed loudly, "Guilty? What crime? Is it a crime to speak out and refuse to accept it? If you are punished for a certain crime, you can just go away with your crown hanging. Firstly, you can avoid the army and avoid disaster, get away with it, and get away safely? Secondly, then
Is it possible to discuss things in the countryside, criticize the Qing Dynasty, and increase your reputation?
Everyone lowered their heads one after another. Oh, my lord pulled it off so cleanly, uh, he said it so clearly, it makes people feel so embarrassed...
Cao Cao stopped smiling and said in a deep voice: Cui Jigui!
Cui Yan trembled slightly, raised his hands and replied, "I'm here."
Today's discussion is up to you! Whether it's war, peace, or something else, it's up to you! Cao Cao looked around, eating the emperor's salary, and being loyal to the emperor! Everyone is here, eat and drink what they need.
It's all ready, I'll just tell my servants to do it! I'll be waiting for your good news!
After Cao Cao finished speaking, he waved his hands and walked away.
Everyone in the hall looked at each other in shock.
Cui Yan couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in his heart...
Originally, Cui Yan thought that Cao Cao was going to lead the main battle, so he deliberately asked more people to come, so that he could build a larger momentum when necessary and prevent some possible situations from happening, but Cui Yan
What Yan didn't expect was that Cao Cao would do something like this!
Or...
Cui Yan straightened up and stared at the smiling Guo Jia. Fengxiao had indeed a clever plan...
I don't dare... Guo Jia smiled, if Brother Cui is too timid to do anything, he can resign from his lord immediately...
You! Cui Yan stared, and then almost immediately smiled, leaving Guo Jia alone and turning to everyone, everyone, since the lord has entrusted an important task to someone, I will be disrespectful...
...Now when discussing Yuyang, how should we respond? Please express your opinions!
Li Pan was the first to say: Don't fight! Now Jizhou is exhausted, the warehouses are empty, and the spring plowing has not yet been completed. How can we spare the energy to fight? Even if we want to fight, we are not in a hurry. We can strictly guard the passes and wait until the grain is harvested this autumn.
It’s not too late to fight!
Of course! Now we should focus on spring plowing!
The most important thing is the society and the country!
If there is no food and grass to sustain them, what strength will the soldiers have?
You can't fight, you can't fight, you should plow again, you should plow again!
Cui Yan smiled slightly, and then moved his eyes slightly to Guo Jia's side, but seemed to see Guo Jia still smiling, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat. After pondering for a moment, he turned around and asked: "Don't you know Guo Jia?"
What is the concept of offering wine as a sacrifice?
Fight! Guo Jia spit out one word.
Cui Yan hesitated, what was the reason?
Guo Jia smiled, someone had already said that.
Cui Yan's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, Guo offered wine, this is a major military matter, how can it be a piece of cake!
Guo Jia also nodded, what Cui Biejia said was true, how could it be a child's play?
Huh! Cui Yan saw that Guo Jia couldn't be moved, so he simply ignored it. Then he discussed it for a while, and had everyone's opinions listed one by one, and then sent them to the inner hall for Cao Cao to review.
Cui Yan glanced left and right.
Everyone around paid tribute to Cui Yan.
Cui Yan knew that to a certain extent, Guo Jia's attitude was that of Cao Cao, but Cui Yan still chose the military policy of defending Jizhou and did not agree to send troops to Yuyang. Whether it was Li Pan's remarks or Hua Xin's
The rhetoric is actually the same, and this is also the attitude of the entire gentry in Jizhou.
During the First Youzhou War, the Jizhou nobles were deceived into fighting Gongsun together with Yuan Shao. However, after defeating the Jizhou people, they saw no benefit. All fools knew that they would not fall in the same place. Naturally, the Jizhou nobles did not
I am willing to fall into the second Youzhou War.
Since Cao Cao asked Cui Yan to come up with a negotiated result, Cui Yan would present the result.
This is the public opinion in Jizhou!
Not long after, the person who had been sent to the inner hall came out with a somewhat strange look on his face.
How? Cui Yan asked.
Duke Cao has a lesson, please listen carefully! The servant in the inner hall did not directly ask Cui Yan questions, but stood directly in the hall and unfolded Cao Cao's instructions.
Sir, I respectfully listen. Cui Yan and others lowered their hands and listened.
In the past, the Marquis of the Jin Dynasty returned to Yu and attacked Guo. The palace's strange admonition said, "Guo, Yu's appearance. If Guo dies, Yu will follow him. Now the Han Dynasty is quiet and Ji, it is like Guo and Yu! The emperor and heaven have no relatives, but only
Virtue is auxiliary. Today, the people of Youbei are guarding the border with cold armor and fighting hard to guard the gate. If they do not help, how can they betray Mingde?
Jizhou Shi Cui, together with Li and Hua people, refused to help the people of Youzhou and stood aside, using the name of spring plowing and Zhuang He. They dared to ask about the lives of the people of Youzhou, especially Zhuang He, millet and wheat! Today, they can be abandoned because of Zhuang He.
Youzhou, why will you abandon the great Han tomorrow?
Halfway through hearing this, Cui Yan knelt down on the ground and kowtowed, and the rest of the people also knelt down one after another.
Guo Jia smiled and did not stay any longer. Instead, he made a slight gesture to Cao Cao's chamberlain and walked out of the hall. Anyway, he was the main war faction, and he could not talk to these Jizhou leaders and peace factions.
After getting the preliminary results, there is no need to stay any longer.
In fact, Cao Cao didn't even think about discussing anything with Cui Yan and others. A few days ago, Cao Cao had already issued an order for the Cao army in Qingzhou and northern Jizhou to advance in two directions, under the banner of massive support to Youzhou, and slowly moved towards Youzhou.
The order to advance north.
Guo Jia looked behind him and saw that Cui Yan and others were still kneeling on the ground...
The next step is to ask these people to sign a military order to ensure that they receive taxes in the autumn. Since these people say they want to cultivate crops again, they can't just talk about it. So where exactly is the emphasis and how much farming is done?
The geometry of the autumn harvest has naturally become the standard by which these people are measured.
Led by Cui Yan, these Jizhou people will be divided into farming officers responsible for various regions in Jizhou, specifically responsible for agricultural crops...
Presumably, Chen Qun and others were almost there at this time.
Hey... Guo Jia let out a breath.
Interesting?
To a certain extent, it's not completely meaningless.
After all, Cao Cao's plan from the beginning, using the migration of Jingzhou as an introduction, was just to clear out the power of the descendants of the Jizhou gentry at this moment!
But doing so is also very dangerous.
Due to the situation, Cui Yan and others will inevitably complete the task of collecting taxes this year no matter what. Even if they sell iron, they will collect their respective shares. In other words, Cao Cao will get a relatively satisfactory income today, but
Cui Yan and others will not sign anything in the coming year, and Cui Yan and others will not be stupid enough to continue to stay. It is inevitable that most of them will leave...
Although there may not be any problems in administrative matters if people from Yuzhou take over these jobs, Jizhou will definitely be affected in terms of subsequent food income and sources of soldiers. At the same time, Yuzhou and Jizhou will definitely be like water and fire.
…
So, in the end, is this thing interesting?
Not entirely interesting either.
After Cao Cao compromised with Xun Yu and other Yuzhou people, he could not continue to compromise with the Jizhou people, because everyone knows that if you compromise on everything, you may end up compromising yourself in the end. But now Cao Cao is demolishing the east wall to make up for the west wall.
This approach made Guo Jia feel quite worried.
Cao Cao wanted to strengthen his control over these gentry children like the Hussar, but he did not make so much preparations and foreshadowing in advance like the Hussar, so now he started to fight with real swords and guns.
Sometimes, it naturally feels that it is not lubricated enough.
This dryness comes from many aspects, the most important of which is talent, or the monopoly of talent that the current gentry class has formed, and the monopoly of talent comes from the monopoly of knowledge. Only these people can be used, so it is inevitable
You will be restrained by these people.
monopoly……
This is the new vocabulary of hussar that Guo Jia learned in Chang'an.
Interesting.
A ridge is called a ridge. A high one is called a ridge. Zhou Li’s Note says that a tomb is a ridge.
Where is the place for building tombs and sealing earth?
Nowadays, it is a monopoly, and the tombs are sealed off.
hehe.
I don’t know why, but Guo Jia really wants to drink now.
