Guo Jia seems to be born into a wealthy family, but actually he comes from a poor family.
To say they are wealthy is just to put money on their faces.
Just like in history, Liu Bei called himself Liu Huangshu. He seemed to be a tall man, but in fact he was from a humble family and just sold straw sandals.
If you don’t have enough talent, let’s pretend to be cool!
Looking at Guo Jia, Liu Xiu suddenly understood why from the beginning of Cao Wei, Mingjun always supported poor families to fight against aristocratic families, because the cost of buying off aristocratic families was too high, and even if they paid a high cost, they might not succeed. Cao Pi paid the highest price in order to buy off aristocratic families,
But the most failed.
Relatively speaking, the cost of acquiring poor people is relatively low.
"There is a serious shortage of talents from poor families. Geniuses like Guo Jia are still in the minority. Even if they are trained through the imperial examination, it is difficult to see the effect without thirty years of hard work." Liu Xiu said leisurely.
The situation is that Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, and others are in a state of unity.
The situation is that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao join forces to fight against him.
There will be a long confrontation in the future.
It is impossible to end the confrontation in a short time; it is also impossible to decide the outcome in one battle. Whether it is Cao Cao or Yuan Shao, it is extremely difficult to win. The war has changed from a simple competition of armies to a competition of national power. Therefore,
The rear needs to be stable.
"Send partial troops to attack Hanzhong and attack Bashu!"
Liu Xiu thought.
Once Hanzhong and Bashu are captured by Cao Cao, the situation will deteriorate again; once these two areas are occupied, they can threaten Guanzhong and Yongliang areas.
Thinking of Bashu, I thought of Liu Zhang.
When talking about heroes over wine with green plums, Cao Cao called Liu Zhang a guard dog and looked down on him. When Longzhong was fighting against him, Zhuge Liang also looked down on Liu Zhang and called him weak. But later Liu Bei attacked Liu Zhang and killed Fengxiao.
Elite soldiers finally won the victory after three years of hard fighting.
Zhang Lu sent Ma Chao to rescue Liu Zhang. However, Ma Chao surrendered to Liu Bei. Liu Zhang was desperate and surrendered only then.
His performance severely slapped Cao Cao and Zhuge Liang in the face.
Due to Liu Zhang's stubborn resistance, Liu Bei lost the opportunity to capture Hanzhong and capture Yongliang. At that time, Cao Cao took advantage of this opportunity to stabilize Yongliang and even captured Hanzhong. In the end, Liu Bei paid a huge price to capture Hanzhong. As for Yongliang,
There is no hope.
The essence of Kong Ming's six expeditions out of Qishan was to capture Yongliang, but Yongliang had already been consolidated. Kong Ming lost time and finally failed.
The failure of Kongming's Northern Expedition was due to the stubborn resistance of Liu Zhang, whom he despised.
Historically, Pang Tong offered three strategies. The first strategy was to select elite troops and sneak attack Chengdu; the middle strategy was to kill Yang Huai, Gao Pei and others and capture Fucheng; the third strategy was to retreat to Baidi City and wait for reinforcements. As a result, at that time
Liu Bei was old and lacked the courage, so he chose the middle strategy, the safe one.
As a result, it took three years to capture Bashu, but the price was that Bashu was ruined and Yizhou was in ruins, unable to attack other lands.
In the end, Bashu was captured, but time was lost.
In later generations, Deng Ai cleverly crossed Yinping and chose the best strategy.
The battle in the world is all about time.
To lose time is to lose the world.
Next, we should divide our troops into two groups to attack Bashu and Hanzhong, trying to capture these two places before Cao Cao reacts. In addition, we have to spend a lot of money to bribe the leading party. Whatever can be done with money, it is not a big deal. Liu Zhang, Zhang
Lu and others are not determined people. As for Zhang Lu, as long as he captures Yangping Pass, he will capture Hanzhong, and Zhang Lu will not fight to the end; while Liu Zhang will surrender as long as he reaches Chengdu and defeats the main force of the Sichuan army.
For these two people, political inducement was the main method, and military strikes were the supplementary method.
Half a month later, Zhao Yun made a surprise attack on Yangping Pass, which fell. He marched to Nanzheng, and Zhang Lu surrendered. In just half a month, Hanzhong fell. Cao Cao wanted to send troops to rescue, but he ran out of time.
He also ordered Zhou Yu to lead the navy to attack Bashu from the south; Chen Dao, Lü Meng and others attacked Jianmen Pass from the north, and Bashu from the north. The Shu army resisted tenaciously, and Lü Meng bypassed Jianmen Pass, approached Yinping, and invaded Chengdu.
Liu Zhang was frightened and surrendered soon after.
In just three months, Bashu and Hanzhong were captured.
The speed was so fast that Cao Cao, Yuan Shu and others were unable to react in time and had no time to rescue. By the time the army was mobilized and reorganized for the expedition, the battle was already over.
At this moment, Bashu, Hanzhong, Luoyang, Xuzhou, Yangzhou, Yuzhou, Jingzhou, Yangzhou, etc. all belong to Liu Xiu. There are ten people in the world, and seven of them are exclusive, and the world is frightened.
…………
Shouchun, the residence of the governor.
In the spring of March, the grass and trees are green and the water is gurgling. Liu Xiu has returned to Shouchun.
At this moment, the situation is better than ever!
The trend is mine!
Bashu strategy, Hanzhong strategy, and such quick victory were beyond Liu Xiu's expectation.
Right!
Historically, when Liu Bei attacked Bashu, Liu Yan, Liu Zhang and others had been running Bashu for more than 20 years, and the foundation was solid; but now, they had only been running it for more than five years, and the foundation was unstable. Zhang Lu was in a similar situation. At this moment, they are more
Historically it has been much weaker.
Liu Xiu's rise was too fast, and many local princes had not yet been formed. Even if they were formed, their foundations were not stable, giving him time to annihilate them quickly.
If you win the hearts of the people, you win the world, which is false; if you win the hearts of the people, you win the hearts of the people, this is true.
Originally, the aristocratic families under his command became much more stable and loyal.
In addition, many disciples of aristocratic families such as Cao Cao and Yuan Shao sent letters one after another, asking to be the guide.
Next, as long as he doesn't make big mistakes, he can dominate the world.
But the more this happens, the more cautious one becomes. The territory is large, the rear area needs to be managed, and the aristocratic families need to be beaten; and the troops must be used more cautiously, so as not to advance rashly and make big mistakes such as the Battle of Guandu, the Battle of Chibi, and the Battle of Yiling, which will lead to failure.
Within the hall.
Zhang Zhao knelt down on the soft couch, waiting gracefully. At this moment, the situation was very good. If the lord was the emperor, then he would be Da Sikong.
"Mr. Zhang! I'm afraid my lord will be unhappy if I interfere in my lord's family affairs!"
Lu Su said.
Zhang Zhao said calmly: "My lord occupies the seventh place in the world. We only need to work steadily and our great cause will be accomplished. Family affairs are state affairs. We, the lord and ministers, naturally have to fill in the gaps for him. Why not give advice and advice?"
Lu Su was speechless when he heard this.
The Lord's great cause is about to be accomplished, and the conflict between the Luoyang faction and the Yangzhou faction has intensified.
The Yangzhou faction is mainly composed of people from Jiangdong, mixed with people from Xuzhou, mainly Zhang Zhao, Zhou Yu, Lu Su, etc. It played an important role in the early stage of the lord's business. The Luoyang faction is mainly composed of Luoyang imperial students. At that time, the lord
The connections he made during his time as imperial students later became civil servants and military generals under the command of Yuan Shu, Liu Biao, Liu Zhang and others.
The lord was able to successfully take over Yuzhou, Jingzhou, Yizhou, etc., and these imperial students were indispensable, mainly Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Jia Xu and others.
The mistress, Cai Yan, was from the Luoyang faction, which was a great disadvantage to the Yangzhou faction.
There were footsteps outside. Liu Xiu put on a white brocade robe and a golden crown on his head. He entered the hall with dragon and tiger steps. Zhang Zhao, Lu Su and others quickly stood up to pay their respects.
