Jia Xu and Guo Jia's words can be regarded as different kinds of approval of Chen Xi's approach, and Liu Bei can also understand Chen Xi's behavior, but he is not here to talk about this matter, but to prepare for the next step.￥f,
Xu Zijiang's article also reminded all the princes in the world that it was time to suppress Waihu.
Shouchun, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu walked out of their respective gentle towns and went to Jiangdong together. Some things needed to be resolved. The war in Jiangdong should be over. If they continued, they would be said to be incompetent.
In Chang'an, Cao Cao slowly burned the articles on the list. Just like Liu Bei and Sun Ce had awakened, Cao Cao also understood what things should be put on the table at the moment, and other things needed to be postponed.
"Zhongde, have you understood the military system of the Xiliang Army?" After Cao Cao burned the papers, he went out to find Cheng Yu. If there is anything worth learning about Dong Zhuo's army, it must be the military system. It is really the world.
Strong army.
"It's a very simple military system, but it's not suitable for us." Cheng Yu said with a wry smile. He was half commander, half counselor, so he had a deep understanding of the military system. That's why Cao Cao asked him to analyze the powerful nature of Dong Zhuo's army.
"Why?" Cao Cao asked in confusion.
Cheng Yu smiled bitterly and explained the structure of the Xiliang Qiangjun pyramid to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao's face twisted into a ball.
"That's not right! If this were the case, when we captured Zhang Boyuan, the Xiliang army should have fought tooth and nail, and a second general would have appeared to take his place!" Cao Cao suddenly reacted and asked.
According to Cheng Yu's statement, unless an army like the Xiliang Iron Cavalry is destroyed in an organized manner, it will definitely be a typical example of a bloody battle to the end.
"If the other soldiers in the general's headquarters are the strongest, then if the Xiliang Army has its own soldiers, it will definitely be the Xiliang Army with the weakest psychology." Cheng Yu said with a wry smile. "Logically speaking, Xiliang Army
There are no personal soldiers of the generals. The so-called generals' personal soldiers are actually the generals and schools group of the Xiliang military system. They can take over the position of the general at any time after the general falls and continue to fight."
Cao Cao was obviously dumbfounded this time. How could he have an army with the weakest soldiers in his own body? What was going on?
"The soldiers of the headquarters exist to protect the generals, but if the general is captured, the soldiers of the headquarters will naturally take action. If the Xiliang Army's original military system is used, if a general is captured, the first person on the second ladder will take over directly." Cheng
Yu said helplessly. "So for the Xiliang army, killing the general will have little impact."
"In other words, we were able to annex the entire Xiliang cavalry that defended Boyuan entirely because of Zhang Ji's doting?" Cao Cao suddenly felt a layer of cold sweat forming on his back, and he was really only one step away from death.
"This is the only explanation." Cheng Yu said helplessly, "Only someone like Zhang Ji, who stands in the second rank of the Xiliang Cavalry Group, can change the military structure of the entire group. People say that Zhang Ji dotes on Zhang Xiu.
To this day, I feel that what I said was true!”
"What about our military system?" Cao Cao said helplessly. The military system that has developed combat effectiveness the fastest in the world is definitely the Xiliang Army's military system, but this military system represents the exploitation of the lowest level!
"The twenty-first rank of Qin Jue, as the long article said, only in this way can the bloody spirit of the people in Guanzhong be aroused." Cheng Yu sighed and said.
"That's all we can do. I'm going to take action against the Qiang and Hu this winter." Cao Cao sighed and said. Xu Zijiang's list of articles, among other things, forced Cao Cao to the point of no return. After all, Liu Bei and others
Not to mention anything else, at least he is still doing it, and he has some other sins while doing it.
According to Xu Zijiang's article, Cao Cao not only failed to perform his duties, but also brought disaster to the country and the people...
In desperation, Cao Cao decided to do something practical first. Since the Qiang and Hu could not wait any longer, taking advantage of the trend could be regarded as expanding their territories.
"This winter?" Cheng Yu had a headache.
What Cao Cao struggled with the most was the issue of veterans. Although some veterans have been tempered after two years, to be honest, these veterans are all parallel imports. Veterans who have never been on the melee battlefield of the large army are fighting against Yuan Liu on the battlefield.
The veterans who came down were quite different.
"It is impossible for us to give in. If our predictions are correct, the Qiang and Hu will definitely come to plunder this winter. Yongzhou is already rich enough." The cold light in Cao Cao's eyes was clearly visible when he looked at Cheng Yu. Since he had to fight, why?
Not to take the initiative?
"In this case, after we form an alliance with Yuan Tan, it will not be enough to accept the troops from Bingzhou." Cheng Yu asked with a frown.
"Our current military strength can only take care of one side." Cao Cao said coldly and ruthlessly, "The Xianbei troops in the north are still far away from Yongzhou, and the Qianghu from Liangzhou have already pointed their swords at Chang'an. In this case, we have no choice."
"It's just that under the current situation, Yuan Tan will inevitably withdraw the troops defending Bingzhou. When Xianbei invades, Bingzhou will inevitably be in chaos. Even if Lu Bu guards the border of Bingzhou, there will be no stable rear area and insufficient supplies of food and grass. It will be impossible to defeat Xianbei.
." Cheng Yu pondered for a while and then said, Cheng Yu will maintain his humanity unless absolutely necessary.
"Write a letter to Lu Bu and tell him to guard Jiuyuan, Wuyuan, Ranggongtai, Kongming (Hu Zhao), Ziyuan and others, and try their best to move the people to Jiuyuan and Wuyuan, leaving other places alone. After Yuan Tan evacuates, I
Yongzhou distributes grain, just guard those two places!" Cao Cao said slowly after thinking for a while.
Yongzhou has now returned to its fertile and beautiful scenery, and there is no shortage of food. Cao Cao hesitated and decided to clear himself.
Of course, the current lack of food in Yongzhou means that the Yongzhou family does not take back those fertile lands in Yongzhou. In the past, Li Jue and others were here. Although the relationship with the family was eased in the later period, in the early turmoil, all the families were overpowered by force, so they could give millions
The fields were distributed directly to the people.
Naturally, these distributed fields were mostly abandoned in the past because no one had dredged the Yongzhou water network, but being abandoned does not mean that these places are ownerless land. On the contrary, 90% of these places are the real estate of powerful families.
When Li Jue was still there, after the water network was completed, Guanzhong was restored to a thousand-mile fertile land, and no one dared to ask Li Jue to return these places. But now that Cao Cao is in power, the Yongzhou family can't wait to take back these fertile lands.
, even the Yang family has started to reach out to recycle it without realizing it.
Cao Cao is also concerned about this aspect, but it is not time to conflict with the family yet, he needs to wait for an opportunity.
Otherwise, if the aristocratic family takes back these lands, everything Cao Cao owns now will become a thing of the past. The aristocratic family's attachment to the land has not changed for thousands of years. This can be the foundation of prosperity, but also the root of destruction. (To be continued...

ps: I pray silently, even if I create the world. Whether I can save myself this month depends on these few days.
