At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were quite a few warriors who were familiar with the scriptures and history and read poetry and books, such as Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun and others; Among the literati, there are many people who practice martial arts and practice swords, and are skilled in bows and horses, such as Cao Cao, Guo Jia and Cheng Yu, and Meng Da, Yang Fu, You Chu, Su Ze and others under Ma Chao are all capable of writing and martial arts.

Therefore, in fact, it is difficult to distinguish the two one-sidedly, but from the perspective of temperament and temperament, there is an essential difference between martial artists and literati. The first place in the character of the literati is generally the flexible thinking and smooth hand; However, the first place in the character of a warrior is firm will and extraordinary courage.

Judging from Ma Chao's record, he is indeed an outlier in the civil and military world: at the beginning, he fought against Yan Xing and chased away the outside world, all by daring to take risks alone, the courage to rise up, and the strong confidence that he thought he was enough to win in the face of any opponent. During this period, he showed an unshakable iron will. At that time, everyone in the world thought that Ma Chao was a Saiwu man.

But later he entered Chang'an, mediated on three sides in the political whirlpool, left and right, and finally after killing Dong Zhuo, he was able to retreat, and what surprised the world was that he got all the property of Dong Zhuo and became the biggest beneficiary of Dong Zhuo's death. These actions are not just summed up in the words 'thoughtful and deep'. What should be said is that Ma Chao is also very skillful in superb political methods and insight into people's hearts. Saying that Ma Chao is a literati does not insult the world's admiration for literati.

What's more, Xun Yu knows more than that. I saw him take out a letter from his bosom and hand it to Cao Cao: "Ma Chao not only got Dong Zhuo's treasure, but also got the brave soldiers under Dong Zhuo. On Fengxiao's letter, it is all clear how Ma Chao attacked the details of Chang'an........"

Before the words were finished, the wind paper in Xun Yu's hand had been snatched away by Cao Cao. And when Cao Cao looked at it word by word, his face became more and more solemn, but when Cao Cao saw the end, he actually wailed and shouted: "It's a pity to be filial!" Why did you abandon me?! ”

The letter was handed over to Cao Cao by Guo Jiatuo Xun Yu, so Xun Yu already knew the content of the letter. Seeing Cao Cao regretting Guo Jia so much, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and opened his mouth to comfort: "Don't worry, Duke Ming, there is a saying in the letter of filial piety, he is a gamble and descends to Ma Chao." However, how could a wise person like Fengxiao make a bet with Ma Chao for no reason? Yu thought about it at this time, and only then did he understand the meaning........"

"What do you mean?" Cao Cao was still lamenting the sadness of Guo Jia leaving him, and after hearing Xun Yu's words, his eyes lit up, and he said quickly: "Wen Ruo's words, Feng Xiao will return to Cao's command?" ”

"Ma Chao has settled in Chang'an, and the momentum is getting more and more vigorous. In addition, Ma Chao is a person who loves talents and uses talents, so he will naturally do everything possible to leave the princes and envoys. Therefore, Fengxiao's move is actually a measure to understand current affairs. If Xun Yu expected it to be good, those envoys under Ma Chao's account, at this moment, only Fengxiao is the most respectful and loving. When Xun Yu said this, he realized that he had spoken a little more, and then turned back to the topic: "Fengxiao is not the master of whom, but the lord of the world." If Ming Gong can defeat Ma Chao in the future, it will prove that Ming Gong is the one who calms the world, and Feng Xiao will naturally return with filial piety. ”

"Not bad!" Cao Cao listened to Xun Yu's words, and then put away his sadness, and after calming down, he said: "A certain is now raising righteous soldiers to eliminate the riots, and entering the court to assist the Son of Heaven, this five tyrants are also meritorious." At this time, if you only need to abandon the city of Luoyang, temporarily avoid Ma Chaoyingfeng, serve the Son of Heaven to please the unsubordinate, and annex those mediocre and unambitious, then the great cause can be determined, and the hegemony can be expected! ”

"Exactly." Xun Yu nodded, today he found out that Cao Cao's informality was not necessarily vulgar at times, but it was an open-minded and hearty expression in his heart. However, when he said this, Xun Yu frowned again and said: "The matter of moving the capital is imperative, but Yu is stupid, and he has not yet thought of a perfect plan along the way......."

"Wen Ruo plays me." Cao Cao Fu smiled again, as if he really knew Xun Yu's clever plan, and said: "Now there are only a few hundred residents in Luoyang, and there is nothing to eat, so they go out of the city to peel the bark and dig up the roots of the grass to eat. The food used by His Majesty is also rude, and the residence is even more cold. The decline of luck at the end of the Han Dynasty is nothing more than this. As Wen Ruo said before, there was no grain in Beijing, so he moved the capital to Xuchang and ate Luyang rice warehouse. In this way, Your Majesty should gladly obey it. ”

"Otherwise," Xun Yu shook his head, and said thoughtfully: "Your Majesty, you are not a young son without a plan. If Ming Gong is to play this way, even if His Majesty agrees, he will be suspicious of Ming Gong. The prestige of the Han family has been trampled under the feet of Ma Chao. If Ming Gong tells the world about this, no one in the world will have a man in his heart. In this case, what is the use of welcoming back the Son of Heaven? ”

"Hmm... The princes of the world have different opinions and may not obey. A certain self-respecting to the Han family and setting an example can make the Han family re-enter the hearts of the world. Cao Cao said, obviously also into a state of thinking, pacing back and forth: "However, when the imperial court was in turmoil for a long time, the new capital of Luoyang is still here, and everyone in the world looks up from afar and near in order to seek peace for a while....... If Cao moves to Xuchang again, I am afraid that he will lose the heart of the Son of Heaven again........ has to hold a high position, but also to move the capital to Xuchang, such a dilemma, but it really gives Cao a headache. ”

"Ming Gong did extraordinary things because of extraordinary achievements. If it is delayed at this time, the overall situation will be lost. In Yu's opinion, Cao Gong didn't have to care about the world's opinion at this time. Xun Yu spoke, although he relieved Cao Cao's concerns, there was still no perfect solution.

Cao Cao looked around left and right, looked up at Tianyu and sighed, but when he was half-sighing, he suddenly stopped again and shouted: "I thought of it!" After hearing this, Xun Yu couldn't help but immediately say: "What is Ming Gong's plan?" ”

Cao Cao laughed, a trace of cunning light flashed in his eyes, and with a mysterious taste, he opened his mouth and said to Xun Yu: "If Wen Ruo is from the Xun family, he must also know some of the art of Wei Wei, right?" ”

"What does Ming Gong mean? ........" Xun Yu was dumbfounded, but after thinking about it for a while, he nodded and said, "In the current situation, I have no choice but to use such ghosts and gods to confuse the people." ”

But at the same time, Ma Chao in Chang'an had already taken out a piece of Fufeng paper, handed it to Fa Zheng and said: "This is the proverb of the Mandate of Heaven that I asked Qin Yu of the Divine Bumen to write, take a look." ”

Fa Zheng was stunned, and then saw that it read: There is a saying in astronomy, this winter Taibai committed the town star in the bullfight, passed Tianjin, and the Ying confused and retrograde, and Taibai will meet in Tianguan, the golden fire meets, and there will be a new son of heaven. This is the end of the great Han Dynasty, the land of Jin and Wei, there will be those who will prosper.

Fa Zheng frowned, flipped through the one, and saw that the next chapter read: The destiny of heaven is gone, and the five elements are not always prosperous. The fire-bearer is also earthy. Those who have the world on behalf of the Han Dynasty should be in Wei. ”

Fa Zheng scratched his head and flipped through another one, which read: Han Yihuo is the king, Cao Nai is the earth's life. Xu Du belongs to the soil, and he will prosper when he arrives. Fire can give birth to the earth, and the earth can prosper the wood, and there will be those who will prosper in the future.

"Lord, what are you?" When Fa Zheng saw the last chapter, he knew that Ma Chao was pointing the finger at Cao Cao, so he couldn't help but say: "You want the propaganda department of your subordinates to spread the rumors about Cao Qiandu or Dai Han?" ”

"All right!" Ma Chao snapped his fingers and said, "Wang Yun has long played the leftover tricks in Chang'an, and occasionally uses them to disgust and disgust Cao Cao, which is not bad........"

"But the lord thinks that Cao Cao will definitely move the capital to Xuchang?" Fa Zheng was already a little confused by Ma Chao, and said something that hindered his IQ assessment.

However, this question made Ma Chao scratch his head. However, to deal with these smart people, Ma Chao has always had a trick: "What do you say? After that, Ma Chao walked away, leaving only Fa Zheng with an unfathomable figure.

And Fa Zheng pondered for a moment, and couldn't help but suddenly realize, facing Ma Chao's back, and said loudly from the bottom of his heart: "The lord is far-sighted, anticipating the enemy first, and he is really a god and a man!" ”
