Chapter 3271 A knife on the head of the word "名"
Cao Ping looked at Puban County in front of him and was a little disbelief.
The four gates of Puban County are wide open, and the city is empty.
The empty city plan in history may not be true or false. Because Sima Yi in history does need a defeat to balance his own situation of being too "highly accomplished", it doesn't matter whether Zhuge Liang's empty city is.
Now when Cao Ping encounters the empty city, he is more happy than worried.
"Master Cao, this county town..." Jie Qing whispered, "I'm afraid there will be a fraud!"
"There is a fraud?" Cao Ping looked around and looked around, "Where is the fraud?"
Jie Qing said: "I heard before that... well, um, the thief army has buried some mechanisms, and turbulent oil and thunder..."
Halfway through the explanation, I suddenly remembered that the unlucky general who had been surnamed Cao, so he blocked some words, but only a few words left.
But the meaning is clear.
Cao Ping nodded and sent more than a dozen people into the city to check.
Maybe it was only a moment, but in Cao Ping's heart it seemed like several years had passed. After the soldiers who entered the city first expressed their safety, Cao Ping couldn't wait to enter the city.
Even if he tried to call him from behind, Cao Ping had no time to listen.
Is this really taken down?
Immediately, a kind of ecstasy surged from my heart.
This is really...
Cao Ping's legs were almost unable to close.
You know how much effort Cao Hong had worked before and had not been able to take Puban County. When it was his turn, it was so simple and easy?
Could it be...
It’s my own luck!
Many people have a lottery dream. Even if others say that the lottery is just that, they still cannot wake up people who pretend to be asleep, or people who are willing to immerse themselves in false happiness.
Cao Ping's sense of happiness is now overwhelming.
"Come here!" Cao Ping shouted loudly, and his voice revealed an indescribable pride and excitement. "Quickly report to the Lord's Communiqué! Someone has conquered Puban!"
"only!"
The soldiers of Cao's army also responded loudly and then drove away.
As for the solution of working hard all the way, coordinating the troops and recruiting soldiers...
Who is that?
...
...
Is Cao Jun strong?
Is Cao's army weak?
In fact, strength is the contradiction and unity of contradictions, but many people subconsciously think that people are divided into good people and bad people, good people are absolutely good, and bad people are definitely bad.
Just like the identity change between friends and enemies, it is also in a flash.
Cao Ping doesn't know how to be a human being.
If he knew how to be a human being, he would not have driven away the scourge.
And now Cao Ping has a conflict with resolving the situation.
In Cao Ping's opinion, everything is in line with the rules.
After all, glory belongs to the leader, isn’t it?
And he happened to be the "leader" of this army, so naturally he was his meritorious service.
After he received the meritorious reward, he would give him some help and chew him, and it would be considered a conclusion.
But I didn't think so.
Don’t worry about lack of weight but not unevenness.
Cao Ping took all his merits on himself, which naturally made him very dissatisfied.
If it is normal time, you will endure it.
All the leaders are the ones who have merits, and all the subordinates are the ones who have bad blames. This is also a hidden rule in Shandong. But now it is necessary to solve the problem that some merits are urgently needed to reduce the guilt of replacing the army and losing the general. As a result, it is now better. Seeing that all the merits are swallowed by Cao Ping, when he reported it, he did not even mention the problem.
In this way, can you be happy to solve the problem?
Cao Ping was quite surprised when he was unhappy in his discomfort and found it unreasonable, so he even slapped the table on the spot.
Aren’t this great Han Dynasty’s people’s surname Cao?
What else is unhappy to contribute to the Cao organization?
If Cao Ping had not tried his best to persuade and explain, how could there be a "great victory" in Puzhang?
Well, no matter how many Hussars were killed or not, don’t say what is left in the county town. Anyway, Puban County is now in Cao Ping’s hands, so that’s right?
Of course, Cao Ping didn't want this "great victory", so he would give the others some benefits!
Therefore, in the face of difficulties, the two cooperate, and then in the face of interests, the two parted ways.
The two had a big quarrel and parted in disagreement.
Cao Ping once pulled out the sword that Cao Cao "given" and angrily turned over the table.
Jie Qing took people to Pubanjin. After Cao Ping did not know Jing as an auxiliary, he did not dare to lead his troops to attack Emeiling directly. He could only send people to Cao Cao to deliver letters, report, and complain at the same time.
...
...
Puban County and Pubanjin have now undergone certain changes over time.
As the war continued, most of the people in Puban County had withdrawn, and only some old and weak remained unwilling to leave.
Shops and other things have long been closed and empty. After all, since the war began, the caravans here have been cut off. The same is true for Pubanjin. In the more than a month since the river melted, these northerly ferries of the river will lose their effect. You have to go downstream to Shaanxi and Jin to be considered a stable crossing channel.
Therefore, Sima Yi judged that at this time window, there was no need to compete with Cao's army for Jin in Puban County.
Use steel on the blade.
Go north from Puban County, pass the folds of loess, and then pass the Jiashan Road to reach Emei Ridge.
"Didn't Cao's army come?" Huo Nu was a little disappointed. He thought the Cao army would follow the imprints they intended to leave, but he didn't expect that the Cao army would station in Puban County.
Sima Yi was also a little confused.
Even with Sima Yi's intelligence, he could not have imagined that the reason why Cao's army stopped was that there was a serious disagreement among Cao's army.
But these are not the focus of Sima Yi’s current concern.
Perhaps because Sima Yi failed once, Huo Nu's attitude towards Sima Yi has become more accommodating now. The two also discussed each other, rather than pure orders from higher and lower levels.
Sima Yi asked someone to recruit some Qiang people and prepared to take these Qiang people to invade the Cao army's rear line.
In the area of ​​Shangjun, Hedong, northern part, there are a large number of scattered Qiang people.
They were also called Rong or Di.
For a long time, these people were considered barbaric and animal-like people by the Central Plains dynasty, and they did not recognize them as members of China. However, in fact, these people had a huge influence on China. What Confucius admired the most was also the Zhou Dynasty, which was constantly admired by Confucian children throughout the ages. However, few people knew that without the influence of the Quanrong, the Zhou people would not have moved east to Qishan, and there would have been no future demise of the Shang Dynasty and the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty.
There is another saying that the Quanrong people are not only brave and good at fighting, but also good at making chariots. The Quanrong artificial chariots were earlier than the Zhou Dynasty, and then the Zhou Dynasty introduced the Quanrong people's chariot technology and defeated the merchants. From then on, the chariots became the main military tool of the Central Plains army. This influence on the military technology of the Central Plains dynasty was a huge leap.
These Rongdi gradually differentiated and evolved later, including Qiang.
The Qiang people focused on sheep and animal husbandry as the main production model. Until later generations, in the northwest, many people still liked to use white scarves to thorns on their heads, which were actually similar to those of sheep.
The gathering places of Qiang people are generally not specifically marked on the map, because these Qiang people are actually semi-nomadic and migrate due to changes in water and plants. However, some are relatively fixed areas, such as in a valley below the slope of Emeiling, where Qiang people settled, which is called Sanjiaao. It is said that only Sanhu Qiang people settled here.
Sanjiaao is located between Emeiling and Pubanjin, so the merchants who had previously communicated occasionally would stop here and trade goods with the Qiang people.
Huo Nu was puzzled by Sima Yi's decision. "Didn't you say that the Qiang people didn't understand the orders and were not trained and could not be of great use?"
Sima Yi nodded, "That's right. But now there is no need to be a big deal, just invade... You should know that in the Hedong land, not only the Han people, but also the Qiang people, especially the Baishi Qiang."
"Bai Shi Qiang?" Huo Nu thought.
"Not bad." Sima Yi said, "Although Bai Shiqiang has not received much training, they are more familiar with the terrain of this area than we do. When the lord first arrived in Hedong, Bai Shiqiang often traveled to Guanzhong, the northern part of the country, and transferred and sold supplies."
Sima Yi did not want to use the Qiang people to fight on a large scale, but to use the Qiang people as a guide.
Huo Nu nodded, but shook his head and said, "The Qiang people do not know benevolence, righteousness and morality. If this is the case...
Sima Yi laughed and said, "Why did Captain Huo speak like those sour scholars?"
Huo Nu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Hey! I heard those guys say this every day before, so... according to your opinion, is this Qiang man actually reliable?"
Sima Yi shook his head again, "Wrong, wrong! The Han people themselves may not be reliable, let alone the Qiang people?"
"Ah?" Huo Nu was completely confused.
Sima Yi said: "This good is not good, and that evil is not evil. How can one determine the good and evil for a lifetime? Forget it, you don't have to think too much about this matter, just use it first. Although the Qiang people's combat is not good, it is still available for information to be reported."
Huo Nu nodded.
Sima Yi glanced at Huo Nu, "This time my failure made me understand a truth..."
Huo Nu bowed his hand and asked, "Ask for advice."
『Combination.』 Sima Yi spit out two words, paused for a moment before explaining, and used his hands to gesture in the air.『I once thought that if the cavalry carried the bow and arrow, he could stand invincible, but he never thought of defeat... Afterwards, he forgot the word "combination".
"Combined use?" Huo Nu frowned and repeated.
Sima Yi nodded, "Using bows and cavalry to control infantry, it is naturally used together, but it should be used carefully for the Tuqi. The same is true for Puban, and the same is true for the Qiang people. They should not seek completeness, but should be used together."
Huo Nu nodded, understanding a little, but not understanding a little, but he also understood that Sima Yi had made a decision after thinking about the Qiang people, rather than just seeking medical treatment in a hurry.
Sima Yi didn't explain any more.
Only Qiang people are more familiar with this land, and Sima Yi can avoid Cao's army's queue and find Hao Zhao's branch faster...
Of course, Sima Yi could take away most of his troops, but Sima Yi chose to leave it to Huo Nu. On the one hand, it was to prevent Cao's army from going north to advance to Emei Ridge, and on the other hand, it was to have the opportunity to counterattack Puban.
Sima Yi himself was preparing to fall down and stand up again wherever he fell.
...
...
The victory or defeat of Hedong seems to be very far away for people in Shandong.
With the end of the late spring cold, the Central Plains seemed to be revitalized, and counties and counties in various places began to become busy again. However, this time it was not for Prime Minister Cao's military rations, but for his own land.
But as time goes by, another problem begins to emerge.
No rain.
Since the bone-chilling winter snow or spring snow before, there has been little rain. In some places, there has been a long time when there has been no rain.
Drought seems inevitable.
The prefects and county magistrates in various counties rushed to send people to repair water conservancy, dig ditches, and dig dry wells. They seemed to have done a lot of things, and they seemed to be proving to someone that they are officials, they are not for nothing, but they also do things. However, after most of these things were done, these officials still said that they had enough manpower, and the rest were all for God...
Then the officials returned home with sighs and closed the door and started singing and dancing.
After all, God is the best choice for taking the blame.
After placing the blame on God, the officials naturally felt relaxed.
The one who drinks the flower wine, holding Meiji, sighs that spring is coming.
I completely forgot about various matters of water conservancy. I should have done it first, rather than digging a well when I have no water to drink.
However, behind the "optimism" and "security" of these officials, there seems to be some haze spreading.
As the drought intensified, various places began to report disasters to Xu County.
It was faintly vaguely, something was wrong in Xu County.
Recently, for Liu Xie, it has been a relatively complex and stagnant state.
On the one hand, he tried to hook up with... Cough cough, hook up with local gentry officials in the court, but the effect was not good. On the other hand, he also realized that there was indeed a little undercurrent surging under the calm Xu County.
Perhaps this is an undercurrent that can make him happy.
But he had to pretend that he didn't know anything, didn't know anything, and didn't participate.
Liu, the actor of the Han Dynasty, still diligently handles every trivial memorial at hand every day, and then shows a diligent and questionable attitude, constantly summoning great scholars of the Confucianism to teach him, and occasionally expresses his worries about drought in various places, and then sighs that he is not virtuous as the emperor...
Then all the officials bowed down together, indicating that the emperor has virtue, and he will definitely be in danger and peace in the world.
After such a drama is repeated, many people will taste some flavor.
If the way of heaven is normal, then drought is naturally a "warning" given by the way of heaven.
Whose "warning" is it for?
For Liu Xie?
But the question is what did Liu Xie do as the emperor? Is Liu Xie the decision to be the ruler of this Han world or someone else?
The more Liu Xie took it to himself, the more others understood that this matter should actually be counted on that person's head.
Everything seems to be changing in the direction Liu Xie hoped.
Of course, as for whether this direction can finally get the results that Liu Xie hopes for...
After Liu Xie held a court meeting, he habitually walked towards the ancestral temple.
This is the "tree hole" belonging to Liu Xie alone.
"finally……"
Liu Xie fell under the spirit card, hiding all the expressions on his face in the shadows.
He knew in his heart that the only problem now was that if Cao Cao won, all plans would be in vain.
As for the victory of the General Fei Qian of the Cavalry, it will naturally become a very difficult problem. However, Fei Qian's problem is far away from Guanzhong, and it is still a little far away from Xu County. After all, if Liu Xie can't even get through, how can he consider the further Guanzhong?
"Return to power," Liu Xie murmured in a low voice, "Return to power... the ancestors and ancestors are blessed..."
As long as Cao Cao is willing to return to power, everything will be easy.
He is the emperor of the Han Dynasty, not the decoration of the Han Dynasty!
When imperial power and ministerial power cannot live in harmony, one must bow his head.
Liu Xie had been lowering his head for too long, so this time he wanted to raise his head high and make his own voice.
He believed that the starting point of all the chaos in the world is because of "not justified"!
So Liu Xie had to push everything to the original track.
I don’t know if I have gained a certain amount of power and emotional blessings from the ancestral temple. Liu Xie felt much more relaxed and his expression relaxed. Even if he was interested, he was wandering around in the back garden...
Inadvertently, Liu Xie walked to the remote place of the deposed queen Fu family in the backyard.
Liu Xie would never come to this place before.
There was no rule in the Han Dynasty that the Queen had to kill the Queen, unless it was because the Queen involved some serious matters, such as witchcraft or rebellion, that it was possible to be sentenced to death when the Queen was abolished.
The reason why Liu Xie abolished the Queen Fu Shou was publicly stated that Empress Fu had no son. This was of course a very correct reason in the Han Dynasty, but in fact it was because Liu Xie needed to make room for Empress Cao. In Liu Xie's mind at that time, perhaps he was the incarnation of Liu Xiu, and Fu Shou was the template of Yin Lihua.
Of course, Yin Lihua was the queen who made it, not the deposed one.
However, Liu Xie felt that there was no big difference, but unfortunately, Liu Xie did not succeed like Liu Xiu, and exchanged the queen for Guanzhong...
In the cold palace, figures swayed.
Liu Xie subconsciously wanted to turn around and avoid it, but heard a call behind him, "Your Majesty..."
Liu Xie stopped, hesitated for a moment, turned around, but couldn't help but be surprised.
Now Fu Shou is completely gone from his previous appearance. He is as old as an old woman, with a little gray hair and a lot of wrinkles on her face. If it weren't for the vague appearance between her eyebrows and eyes, Liu Xie would have thought he was two different people.
"You...you..." Liu Xie originally wanted to ask why this happened, but when he thought, wasn't he the one who caused this? So when the words came to his mouth, there was no further text.
Fu Shou trembled and bowed to Liu Xie, "Your Majesty... I live here in seclusion, I don't know the years... I dare to ask... I dare to ask my family?"
Liu Xie was silent and swallowed.
Fu Shou's eyes, which were originally slightly bright, became completely dark.
『This…』 Liu Xie was unfair. After all, Fu Shou entrusted her brother to him, and Liu Xie also promised to treat him well, but in the end Liu Xie did not do it.『You... have a good rest...』
After saying that, Liu Xie turned around and was about to leave.
After taking two steps, he paused, lowered his head, and his voice was slight, "I'm enduring...to endure...to endure...to endure...to"
