Chapter 130 Golden Horn and Silver Edge Grass Belly
Chapter 130: Golden horn, silver border, grass belly
Cao Cao, who was in a good mood, took the initiative to drink two bowls of wine...
Due to his drunkenness, he actually seemed to be acting like a drunkard.
Think about it too.
The attitude towards the Han Dynasty court was clear, and Taiwei Yang Biao was settled. The next step was nothing more than a heavy blow to the pro-Han ministers, and then vigorous and resolute personnel changes, replacing all important positions with his own people.
Empty the emperor and the imperial court completely.
All of this seems to be falling into place.
Cao Cao couldn't stop the ecstasy in his heart, and took the initiative to toast Yi Xiaotian with wine. "Brother Yi, drink, drink..."
Without too many words, Cao Cao wanted to drink at this moment, and he wanted to drink three hundred cups!
"Brother Hi, since Cao Cao was mentioned, let me ask one more question, what is Cao Cao's next strategy?"
Yi Xiaotian stayed awake and asked curiously...
After all, Yi Xiaotian's goal is to quickly end this troubled world and become a wealthy man in a peaceful and prosperous era. Every step of Cao Cao's strategy can have a profound impact on this result.
"Well..."
Hearing this, Cao Cao hesitated.
In fact, the next strategy was the second issue he wanted to discuss with Brother Yi this time.
Thinking of this, Cao Cao raised his hand and said, "Brother Yi, to tell you the truth, this is exactly the issue that Cao Cao has discussed with many advisers, but still has no result."
Cao Cao didn't hide it either...
The previous strategic plans were all formulated by Brother Yi, and this time is no exception.
Although all the advisers participated in the discussion, only Yi Xiaotian was able to make the final decision for Cao Cao.
"Brother Yi, what do you have in mind for Cao Cao's next strategy?" Cao Cao opened his eyes and asked seriously...
"I don't dare to take Gao Jian seriously."
Yi Xiaotian looked very humble and waved his hand. "To be honest, Cao Cao's current situation looks good, but in fact it is surrounded by dangers. If you are not careful, you may lose everything."
One careless move? Lose everything?
Is it that serious?
Cao Cao was stunned. Although he was aware of some crises, it seemed that it was not to the point of losing everything, right?
After all, he now has soldiers, food, territory, fame, status, and cards. Except for Yuan Shao in the north, no one in the world seems to be his opponent in terms of military strength.
"Brother Yi, why do you think you are saying this? Why is Cao Cao so perilous now?" Cao Cao asked in confusion.
"Ahem..."
Yi Xiaotian cleared his throat and answered seriously.
"Brother Hiding, you should understand the so-called golden horns and silver-edged grass belly."
Yi Xiaotian directly talked about Go...
"In Go, whoever can occupy the golden corner and silver edge will be in a situation where he can advance and attack, and retreat and defend."
"On the contrary, if we just make a fuss on the Central Plains of the chessboard, this grassy belly, no matter how much territory we occupy, no matter how large it is, it will only be a loft in the sky, facing attacks from all directions at any time! We have to divide our troops to fight, and be attacked from the front and back!"
Yi Xiaotian did not talk about the situation in the world, but instead discussed the chess game.
It was precisely this chess game that gave Cao Cao a feeling of enlightenment.
call out…
What a belly with golden horns and silver edges!
Cao Cao closed his eyes and meditated, but he was very scared when he thought about it...
In today's world, Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao in the north fight desperately for Youzhou, which is to occupy the golden corner and silver border in the northeast;
Sun Ce built a series of fortresses on the border of Soochow, and his territory became larger and larger. His eyes were set on the golden horn and silver border in the southeast;
As for Liu Zhang of Yizhou, protected by his father, he proposed to the court a decree to "abolish history and establish animal husbandry" as early as more than ten years ago, in order to occupy the golden corner and silver border in the southwest;
Not to mention, the warlords in Kansai, Li Jue, Guo Si, Ma Teng, Han Sui... In recent years, they have continued to conquer, and many of them have lost their heads. Isn't it just to seize the golden corner and silver side of Kansai?
The more Cao Cao thought about it, the more he broke out in a cold sweat. Now all the princes in the world are focusing on the golden horn and silver that can be used to attack, retreat or defend...
Looking back at myself...
The territory is all in the Central Plains, with the Western princes in the west, Lu Bu and Liu Bei in the east, Sun Ce, Liu Biao, and Zhang Xiu in the south, and Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan in the north. None of these people is an economical person. To put it simply, they are in the midst of four wars.
This land is in danger.
In a few years, the princes from all over the world will secure the golden corner and the silver border, and use this as a basis to attack the Central Plains.
At that time, Cao Cao will only be able to fight on multiple fronts and be attacked from both sides. Isn't that what Brother Yi mentioned, one careless move and he will lose everything.
Thinking of this, Cao Cao felt a little horrified and panicked. He even felt that he was too complacent and too arrogant before. Now, how can he have the capital to be arrogant? All the princes are eyeing him with swords!
"Brother Hiding? What's wrong with you? Why are you sweating? Isn't it hot in this wine shop?"
Seeing Cao Cao's appearance, Yi Xiaotian patted him on the shoulder and asked curiously.
Well…
"It's okay, it's okay." Cao Cao forced a smile, but the laughter was very much like a bitter smile. "Maybe he drank several large bowls of wine in a row, and his heart was very burned..."
"It's okay." Yi Xiaotian patted his shoulder again.
"Brother Yi..."
As soon as Yi Xiaotian finished speaking, Cao Cao couldn't help but ask. "Brother Yi mentioned the belly of golden horns and silver edges just now. I thought about it, isn't Cao Cao in danger? His territory is in the middle of this belly.
…”
Cao Cao frowned and asked seriously.
Yi Xiaotian shrugged and answered easily. "Yes, it is very dangerous!"
"Then... what should we do?" Cao Cao stood up suddenly and asked even more urgently.
But soon, Cao Cao realized that he was a little too excited and hurriedly added: "Brother Yi, you also know that what us merchants fear most is 'the faint tears of loving mothers in our dreams, and the changing of the king's flag on the city wall'."
If the Central Plains changes hands again, then...then my good days and Brother Yi's good days will all come to an end!"
Although he didn't mean what he said, Cao Cao was really nervous...
He knows even more how important the next strategy is!
"Brother Hide, calm down, calm down..." Yi Xiaotian stretched out his hand to signal Cao Cao not to panic so much, and reminded him. "Although it is said that this grass belly is the most dangerous, but if we deal with several key points, it may not be possible."
We cannot use this as a basis to launch a challenge to the golden horn and silver edge, and then compete in the world!"
Huo...are you still competing in the world? Brother Yi has such a strong tone!
Cao Cao was shocked. It would be good if he could hold on to the grassy belly of the Four Battles. How easy would it be to expand? Not to mention anything else, the mere presence of the surrounding princes who were eyeing them with eagerness made Cao Cao very afraid.
Before he could think about it carefully, Yi Xiaotian's words came out.
"In my opinion, the key to breaking this situation is nothing more than a few points. First, avoid fighting on multiple fronts; second, develop a corresponding strategy for each prince according to the individual conditions; third, make friends with distant enemies and attack with close friends.
Keep expanding!”
At this point, Yi Xiaotian paused.
Then he lowered his voice and said, "The core is just five words, ten words - look east, look west, cross south, harmonize north, and be centered!"
East, West, South, North, Middle, Yi Xiaotian answered them all.
This answer has a strong flavor of the supernatural power possessed by the evil Western Poison, the Southern Emperor and the Northern Beggar...
Of course, when this series of words came out, Cao Cao couldn't completely understand it for a while?
Look east, gather west, cross south, harmonize north, and center? What do these refer to?
