Chapter 85: The dog lifts the door curtain—all with his mouth
Publicity?
When Cao Cao mentioned this name, Yi Xiaotian shook his head.
He immediately spoke.
"Zhang Yang is a person who is timid and afraid of getting into trouble, but also loves great achievements. This person is not something to be afraid of."
At this point, Yi Xiaotian finished the wine in the bowl and continued: "To deal with him, isn't it just a dog lifting the door curtain - it all depends on one mouth!"
Huo…
The dog lifts the door curtain, all with his mouth!
Cao Cao was slightly stunned, but soon he felt relieved. It seemed that in Brother Yi's eyes, all the princes in the world were so miserable.
Just when he thought of this, Yi Xiaotian's voice continued.
"Zhang Yang is so happy for his achievements. If Cao Cao was smart, the first thing he would do after taking over the court would be to give him credit, give him a title, give him a fief, and let him go far away."
"Zhang Yang has benefited and left. When the time comes, whether Cao Cao kills Han Xian, joins forces with Dong Cheng, or turns against Yang Feng, Zhang Yang will definitely not interfere. What's more? He just wants to interfere? Cao Cao's armored tiger and leopard cavalry also
I am not a vegetarian, this is something that the timid Zhang Yang can understand!"
Yi Xiaotian analyzed the character Zhang Yang in detail.
In fact, there are many little-known characters like this who are little-known in interpretations.
precisely.
They play a vital role in official history.
For example, this Zhang Yang, if he hadn't taken him in, Lu Bu would have died long ago;
If he had not allowed Cao Cao to welcome the emperor in Luoyang, I am afraid that the chapter of history would have been rewritten.
Of course, for Yi Xiaotian, who studies history, these little-known people have long been familiar with their personalities, weaknesses, and preferences...
Their behavior will serve as a breakthrough for Yi Xiaotian's decision-making.
At this moment, Cao Cao could only nod his head continuously...
"Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful..."
Accompanied by laughter and three words "wonderful" in a row, Cao Cao felt extremely sad...
The strange weather, typhoid fever, the attitude of external princes, the covetousness of internal princes, and the unknown problem of starting an army. These constraints to marching west to Luoyang and welcoming the emperor were all solved in the time of burning incense.
Ha ha…
Cao Cao couldn't stop laughing when he thought of this.
Brother Yi is indeed a strange person. There is no problem in this world that he cannot solve.
Cao Cao took the initiative to lift the jug and fill it with wine for Yi Xiaotian, and then offered several bowls...
In addition to admiration, I also feel infinite gratitude.
Only after chatting with Yi Xiaotian could he realize how much energy this wandering and helpless emperor contained and what a rare commodity he could live in...
Only after having a hearty drink with Yi Xiaotian did he understand that each of the five major constraints to welcoming the emperor proposed by Xun Yu could be solved without any effort.
It seemed that at this moment, Cao Cao saw in his eyes his royal hegemony and the hope of unifying the Central Plains and even the world. For a moment, Cao Cao felt a sense of elation.
Who knew, but it happened to be at this time.
Yi Xiaotian's words directly made Cao Cao's mood hit rock bottom.
"Brother Hiding? I think you're a little distracted!"
Yi Xiaotian patted Cao Cao on the shoulder.
"Brother, let me be honest. Although the five constraints you proposed are related to Cao Cao's success or failure in welcoming the emperor, they have ignored the most important one. Without this one, Cao Cao could actually control the court and all the princes.
But the final result is still ruined reputation and death in Kyoto!"
"ah…"
Huo... was ruined and died in Kyoto!
Cao Cao trembled when Yi Xiaotian suddenly said it.
What's wrong with this?
Cao Cao was a little confused...
According to Yi Xiaotian's plan, Luoyang has been controlled and the imperial court has been controlled. Why is it still ruined? Or Luoyang will be killed?
This result is a bit...a bit too miserable, right?
Cao Cao's originally happy expression suddenly became tense.
"Brother Yi? Please tell me, what is this last item? How could it... bring Cao Cao to ruin and his death in Kyoto?"
Hearing Cao Cao's question, Yi Xiaotian slowly stood up, first sighed, and then said loudly.
"Brother Hide, if you only think that the constraints on welcoming the emperor are Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Liu Biao, Yang Feng, Dong Cheng, Han Xian, and Zhang Yang, then you are totally wrong!"
"Nowadays around Luoyang, although everything seems calm, there are turbulent undercurrents. There are many small princes or robbers waiting for the opportunity. Although they do not want to control the court, nor do they want to hold the emperor hostage, they all have a
The common purpose is to use the name of the emperor to obtain some benefits, some titles, some territory, in the final analysis, it is to get a share of the pie."
"They don't obey Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Liu Biao, nor Yang Feng, Dong Cheng, Han Xian, Zhang Yang, and they won't obey Cao Cao. So if Cao Cao wants to achieve great things, if Brother Qi wants to use the emperor's prestige to do business all over the world, then
…”
"The top priority after entering Luoyang is to take the Emperor out of Luoyang! To a place that is easier to control and safer!"
Yi Xiaotian analyzed it carefully...
The so-called welcoming the emperor means not only welcoming the emperor, but also taking the emperor away to a place more beneficial to Cao Cao.
Phew...Cao Cao took a deep breath.
What Brother Yi said makes sense...
As long as the emperor is still in Luoyang, there will be a steady stream of troubles.
What's more, Luoyang is too close to Chang'an, Jizhou, and Jingzhou...
If the protection is not complete, one day Li Jue and Guo Si will lead their troops to kill;
If the protection is not complete, one day Yuan Shao will figure it out and lead his troops south;
Also, even if Liu Biao has no intention of going north, the hundreds of thousands of troops from the nine counties of Jingxiang are still a threat!
This this…
Cao Cao's brows suddenly furrowed tightly. Not only that, but also Luoyang was a bit far away from Yanzhou and Xuzhou.
If the princes from all over the country are attacking and Cao Cao mobilizes troops from Yanzhou and Xuzhou to come to the rescue, the distance will be too far and the supplies will not be able to keep up. This is a taboo for military strategists!
When Cao Cao thought of this, cold sweat broke out down his back, and his whole body became horrified and panicked.
"Brother Yi, when you say that, I'm really scared!"
Cao Cao shivered all over, patted his chest and abdomen to calm down, and then continued.
"If we are trapped in Luoyang, let alone Cao Cao using the emperor's hand to issue orders, I am afraid that all the princes will become eager to attack at any time, and my business will become difficult."
"So! The first thing to do is to take the emperor away..."
Yi Xiaotian was quite happy that Cao Cao could realize this truth.
But…
Another big problem faced Cao Cao. How to take the emperor away? Where to take him?
Xuzhou? Not Xuzhou, the foundation there is not stable, not to mention that Lu Bu, Yuan Shu, and Liu Bei are looking around, it is even more dangerous!
Yanzhou? It seems that I can only take it to Yanzhou.
Thinking of this, Cao Cao asked anxiously.
"Brother Yi? If Cao Cao brings the Emperor to Yanzhou, it seems that he can get out of this predicament. Whether it is Juancheng, the seat of Yanzhou, or Chenliu County, it will be beneficial to Cao Cao."
Cao Cao's eyes were wide and round, as if he was looking forward to Yi Xiaotian's approval.
Never thought about it.
Yi Xiaotian shook his hand shamelessly, and then said, "Not in Yanzhou!"
"What? Xuzhou?" Cao Cao asked next.
"Not even in Xuzhou!" Yi Xiaotian replied without thinking...
Uh... now, Cao Cao was a little confused.
Not Yanzhou? Not Xuzhou? Then... where should we go? We can't send it to other states and counties where the princes are, right?
"Then...what does Brother Yi mean? Where will you take the emperor?"
"hey-hey."
When this issue was mentioned, Yi Xiaotian seemed unfazed. He blinked and rolled his eyes.
He murmured a place name in his mouth, the name of the birthplace of the Chinese "name" clan——
"Yingchuan!"
Um...Yingchuan?
Cao Cao was still recalling the location of Yingchuan in his mind.
Yi Xiaotian's words came out next. "It's not correct to say it's Yingchuan. It should be said to be the county to which Yingchuan belongs - Xu County!"
…Xu County!
Cao Cao immediately recalled the location of Xu County, which was five hundred miles south of Luoyang and only five hundred miles away from Yanzhou.
However, there are still a lot of question marks on his forehead?
Why can’t Yanzhou work? Why can’t Xuzhou work? Why should we choose Xu County?
