"But father! As far as the child knows, Sun Bofu did everything perfectly in Jiangnan. The people in Jiangnan are not grateful to him, but at least they are very supportive of the rule of the Jiangnan Army. of!
Father, you are already the king in terms of strength! Is it really so important to hold imperial power? Are we going to let the world and the people who have just settled down go through another war? Father! You are leading the Cao family on a road of no return! "
Cao Cao's face turned redder and he was about to explode, but suddenly his body shook and he closed his eyes tightly.
After a moment, he said leisurely: "Zixiu, have you forgotten the arrogance of the messenger sent by Yuan Shao yesterday? He actually conveyed the general order to my father, asking his Jizhou army to lead the way, and our army to maintain the food and grass behind!
It can be seen from this that although Yuan Benchu ??lost the battle, he still believed that his strength had firmly secured his position as the boss. Now even if we want to stop as a father, others may not be able to make us stop!
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? If Emperor Xian falls into the hands of Yuan Benchu, I'm afraid our Cao family will not have a good life! Although Liu Xie is just a puppet with no power, at least with him in hand, he still holds the righteousness of the world.
"You didn't see that Sun Ce just issued a decree and wiped out the years of hard work of Yizhou Liu Zhang and his son!" Today's imperial power is useless. But if it is really used on the blade, it is still very powerful!
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ing the Emperor Xian¡¯s secret decree, make the Yuan family willing to temporarily put aside their confrontation with us. Have you taken the initiative to talk and take action together? He also saw the benefits of welcoming Emperor Xian, and wanted to be a general in the court that no one currently holds! "
"But Father, we already have a basis for cooperation with Jiangnan Army! Father can unite with Jiangnan and capture Jizhou, but won't that also protect our Cao family? And with the continued support of Jiangnan Army, we don't have to be afraid. Any force!"
Cao Cao looked at the excited eldest son in shock, and said with a heavy face: "Zixiu! In fact, when Emperor Xian returned to Luoyang, his father had already taken action.
You also know that before the battle with Yuan Jun, your son and uncle were missing for a while.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out and then the two captains of the Chinese army who became the fathers disappeared, don¡¯t you still understand? "
In fact, Cao Ang, who was with Cao Cao, saw the development of all situations. With his intelligence, of course he could vaguely guess some. It's just that he never dared to question his father's decision, nor did he dare or want to verify the truth of the guess in his heart.
But at this time Cao Cao just mentioned it, and he immediately understood it completely. He couldn't help but feel a little desperate in his heart, and said solemnly: "Father, my child understands!"
¡°My father, who was well aware of his talent and sagacity, always wanted to build a legacy that would last forever. He will never give up easily his desire to control the world. And he will definitely make some moves when Emperor Xian's foothold is not yet stable.
Coincidentally, it was one day not long after that. When Cao Ang was patrolling the camp, he happened to see his uncle Cao Chun returning to the camp with a demoralized elite leopard cavalry. Their armors were messy and scarred, and it was clear at a glance that they had suffered a defeat.
The most elite Tiger and Leopard Cavalry among Cao's troops also suffered a defeat, which shocked Cao Ang. From then on, Han Hao, Shi Huan and others, who never left Cao Cao's side, never appeared again.
During those few days, Cao Cao's mood became very gloomy. The war between Canada and Hebei has just begun, making people afraid to approach. Cao Ang could only keep his doubts in his heart. He believed that his father would tell him the truth one day.
Just today, he finally knew the truth, but he was even more disappointed. It was actually his father who first turned against the Jiangnan Army. No wonder the Jiangnan Army inexplicably stopped aiding Cao Jun during the most critical period of the war, causing Cao Jun to almost fall into a dead end.
At that time, Cao Ang was the son-in-law of the Sun family. In my heart, I really resented Sun Ce for doing such a heartless thing at a critical moment. Unexpectedly, the real reason for this still lies with his father.
After being silent for a long time, Cao Ang said helplessly: "Is there no room for relief in this matter? Father, if you let your child be the hostage of the Jiangnan Army, there should be room for change! No matter how ruthless the Jiangnan Army is, there should be room for change. You won¡¯t wrong your child!
As long as they can accept our apology, it may not be impossible to bridge the relationship between the two armies! "
Cao Cao laughed at his son's innocence. He shook his head helplessly and said, "Zixiu, you think of Sun Ce too simply! In fact, he had already made the determination to annex us. You know that it was only because he married us that His songs are scattered abroad.
Unable to resist againWhen the enemy besieges them, the Cao family, who is also unwilling to do so, will be used to defend them against the enemies in the north. But now that Jiangnan has been decided, do you think he will miss this good opportunity because of these two in-law relationships and not take the opportunity to wipe out Jiangbei?
Actually, to be honest, my father understood what Sun Bofu was thinking. He is actually the same person as his father! But his luck was better than being a father, and he firmly seized the opportunity! Before becoming a father.
But no matter what, with Zixiu and your uncle Zixiao here, at least his Sun Bofu will not wipe out our entire Cao family. Compared to that desperate Yuan Benchu, this can be considered a hidden escape route for us.
"In this case, why don't we use this to compete with this guy Sun Boxu?" The jury is still out on who will win! "
Having said this, Cao Cao's eyes sparkled again, and he had infinite fighting spirit in his heart.
"I, Cao Mengde, have never obeyed anyone in my life! What's more, that boy Sun Bofu is just a junior! Losing to a young boy who behaves unreasonably, this breath is really depressing! What¡¯s there to be afraid of in the last game!¡±
Knowing that his father had made up his mind, Cao Ang wisely no longer wanted to do that useless persuasion. Instead, the topic turned to the military. Since his father wanted to compete with the Jiangnan Army, everything else would have to be left to the future and played by ear.
And as the eldest son, he naturally has to share the worries of his father.
He immediately said seriously: "Father! That Yuan Shao is arrogant. After my father came out of Yangzhou, he stopped traveling with him and turned to the southwest. Is this to take advantage of the opportunity to attack Shu County?"
A cunning smile flashed across Cao Cao's face: "Zixiu, you can see my father's intention. This is very good. You have made great progress in military strategy. But have you ever thought about why my father wants to Suppress the anger of the soldiers and attack Shu County instead?"
Cao Ang was just slightly stunned, and then he immediately reacted: "Father, is there something wrong with going to Liyang?"
Regarding his son's astuteness, Cao Cao nodded approvingly again: "That's right, Zixiu! In fact, ever since we met up with Yuan Benchu ??in Xutian and sent out troops together, my father has been very anxious. The chief scout was sent to inquire about the military situation. It¡¯s ten to nine stops.
Only a handful of scouts who did not explore the right direction were able to return to the camp, and my father could not get the necessary important information at all. Where is the Jiangnan Army? Where? What are you doing? How many people are there? We don't have a clue at all.
¡°Why do you think Sun Bofu wants to turn us into blind people and deaf people? He can also be regarded as a man of foresight. Looking at his previous battles, they were all unconventional and unreasonable. Moreover, he who always fights and wins, how could he easily admit defeat to both of us! "
Cao Ang, who had a tacit understanding, said what Cao Cao was thinking: "Does he, Sun Bofu, have another conspiracy?"
"No, there must be a conspiracy!" Cao Cao said categorically: "And the conspiracy must be north of Liyang! But what means he will use to attack the Jiangbei Army, as a father, I don't know! Alas! Scout !
Unexpectedly, before the war officially started between our two sides, the Jiangnan Army had already completely gained the upper hand over the Scout Army! The scouts sent by our Jiangbei Army can only stay two to three hundred steps away from the main army, otherwise they will die.
With more than 200,000 troops, such a huge military formation, but only three hundred steps away, it¡¯s as if the scouts were not sent at all! "
Cao Cao imparted all military skills and experience to his eldest son without hesitation. He hoped that one day, he would no longer be able to command the army in battle due to his increasingly severe headaches. There is a safe successor to take his place.
"This is probably the reason why my father deliberately showed weakness to Yuan Shao and suppressed our troops' marching speed!"
"Yes! Zixiu, my father feels very heavy pressure." Cao Cao looked to the southeast and said with some sadness: "Although my father doesn't know how Sun Bofu wants to deal with the attack of hundreds of thousands of troops. But he There are bound to be some trump cards that are difficult to bear!¡±
"Father!" Cao Ang shouted excitedly: "Actually, father wants Yuan Jun to explore the way for us? That's right! How could it be so easy for Yuan Shao to capture Emperor Xian when he was in the hands of the Jiangnan Army? The child was worried It¡¯s really superfluous! Haha!
Father¡¯s move here and there is so exquisite! Let Yuan Shao's 150,000 troops clear the way for us and attract the attention of Jiangnan Army. In fact, we went to make a sneak attack in Shu County and captured Shu County's granary and material production center.
In the future, even if our Yuan-Cao coalition forces are unexpectedly defeated and retreat, we will at least be able to obtain a large amount of supplies for the Jiangnan Army. In this way, our army will be in an invincible position first!
Huh! This Shu County is still the paper manufacturing company of Jiangnan Army.??Printing and bookmaking center. There are also many great scholars from the world-famous Qunxian Pavilion!
correct! Shu County also has the Wuliang Brewery Factory and the Live Pig Trading Center, which can make a lot of money. Also, I heard that it is also the location of Jiangnan military craftsmanship camp!
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? That is the real hometown of Jiang Nanjun! "
