Chapter 1165 The End of the Hero

It is too important to take Chang'an.

Chang'an was the national capital for a long time in ancient times.

However, it is too far west, and the environmental damage is more serious, and the geographical location is gradually less important than Luoyang.

In Chang'an, Zhang Yu will spend a lot of money to rebuild, and he also plans to station heavy troops.

Zhang Yu's goal has changed, and in the future, Chang'an will be a relatively important base to deal with the west or Ma Teng.

It is very important to send one of the cabinets, Xi Zhicai.

Zhang Yu thought of Zhuge Liang again.

This guy is doing very well in Guangdong, Zhang Yu intends to train him, and he will definitely be able to enter the cabinet in the future.

"I still have a lot of experience, Zhuge is only cautious in his life, this Chang'an may be suitable for him." Zhang Yu intended to let Zhuge Liang come to Chang'an and make Chang'an an important town in the west.

Ling Cao has been back for a while, and the Guangdong side has reassigned new generals to the past, and Zhuge Liang has also handled it very well, so it's time to let go.

Because the police system was not established before, it is now established, and there is no problem in maintaining overall stability.

"Decree that Zhuge Liang will be transferred to Chang'an to manage all government affairs."

A Chang'an is no longer considered a training for Zhuge Liang, and Zhang Yu has to give him more weight and let him take on more tasks.

After doing this, Zhang Yu began to take care of the present.

He summoned the generals, and then said: "Cao Cao's decision with Cao Ang is very important, if you can, maybe this battle really doesn't need to be fought." ”

"However, the preparations must continue, and we must not be sloppy at all."

Preparation for war is a must.

And it must be done better, once Cao Ang does not surrender after three days, then there is no possibility of continuing negotiations in the future, so Zhang Yu must be prepared.

The nervous preparation began here, and at the same time there was hope for peace.

After Cao Cao went back, he summoned Cheng Yu alone.

"Zhongde, we have been a monarch for many years, in the past two days, I have discussed with Ang'er, he has a plan, if it is feasible, it is a way out, you give an evaluation, how much can it be successful?"

Cheng Yu has always been Cao Cao's confidant and one of Cao Cao's most trusted people.

Cao Cao told Cheng Yu about his plan to surrender Zhang Yu and then go to sea.

Cheng Yu was also shocked when he heard this, this is really unthinkable.

"Lord, the current situation is indeed difficult to return to the sky, either to fight to the death or to surrender, as for going to sea, it is indeed a way out, you can negotiate, but once you go to sea, the sea is vast, I am afraid it will be difficult to come back in this life." Cheng Yu sighed.

Cao Cao raised his head, looked at the roof, and sighed for a long time before saying: "Alas, but I am a father, I can ignore my own life and death, but I can't ignore the life and death of my children, once I surrender, I may be able to surrender, but I have become emperor, even if they can live, I am afraid they will be under house arrest for the rest of their lives." ”

Cao Cao is familiar with history and understands the truth.

Zhang Yu let go of the Sun family, but did not let Sun Ce go, Cao Ang and their brothers are different from Sun Quan, Sun Quan is only Sun Ce's younger brother, and Cao Ang and Cao Pi They are the sons of him, the emperor of Great Wei.

This gap made Cao Cao understand that even if a few of them could live, they would still be under house arrest, and the better thing was to limit a small range of activities, maybe a village, a town, or at most a county.

In that kind of life, if it was the heroic Cao Cao, he would definitely rather die.

"My lord, the minister thinks that Zhang Yu's words are credible, he has broken his promise, but except for the loss of trust to Dong Zhuo and Zhang Rang, he has never broken his trust again, but now we are afraid that we will not be able to pay too much."

"If they are allowed to recruit the displaced people to go to sea by themselves, the whole world has generally settled down, and it is difficult for us to even recruit the common people and soldiers, so we can only make the trip by lowering other prices and dispersing all the wealth." Cheng Yu analyzed Cao Cao's difficulties.

"I haven't bowed my head to anyone in my life, and I can't stand surrendering Zhang Yu, I will lead my troops to fight Zhang Yu before surrendering, this is a futile killing, but I can only be willing to end it in this way."

After listening to Cao Cao's words, Cheng Yu understood that this Cao Cao already had a will to die and would not change his mind.

Cheng Yu sighed and said: "Alas, my lord, you and I have been together for many years, if the eldest prince chooses to surrender, I will follow the eldest prince to the sea." ”

Going to sea, in Cao Cao's view, is more uncomfortable than death.

Far from their homeland, they will be buried overseas when they die.

It's very uncomfortable for them.

Cao Cao has such a will to die, and Cheng Yu, who has followed Cao Cao for many years, has not many choices.

Either die with Cao Cao, or stay and continue to help Cao Ang.

He didn't have many options other than two.

Cao Cao didn't say anything, the rules of this era are like this.

The monarch and the minister, the king humiliates the minister to death, not to mention that the king will die.

Cao Cao had already made up his mind at this moment, and his choice was not to help Cao Ang choose, but to choose to die by himself.

"Go and send a message to Zhang Yu, two days later, I will take 30,000 soldiers and horses out of the city to fight a decisive battle, hoping that he can personally lead the troops, and on the third day, it will be handed over to Ang'er and them." Cao Cao said.

Cao Cao didn't choose for them, and at this time, no matter what choice was right.

Cheng Yu knelt down, bowed twice, and bowed out.

Cheng Yu's back is a little desolate, and he is also old.

At the beginning, Xun Yu was the first strategist, but he was loyal to the Han family, and finally went to the territory controlled by Zhang Yu in person, slowly changed his mind, and contributed to Zhang Yu.

And Xun You, who was valued by Cao Ang, was framed and forced to leave, and was even semi-house arrested, but at this time he escaped this catastrophe.

The remaining loyal ministers of Cao Cao, they are actually the most difficult to handle.

Like Cheng Yu, there are only two choices, and there is no chance to surrender Zhang Yu.

If Cao Ang did not go to sea, but chose to surrender Zhang Yu and let Zhang Yu dispose of it, then they could still surrender, but the old master was still there, and the old master was forced to go to sea, in this most difficult time, according to the rules of this era, they could not leave the old master.

Cheng Yu is gone, and his back is gloomy.

Cao Cao was also alone.

At this moment, Cao Cao is an old man.

Zhang Yu received the news and understood Cao Cao's thoughts.

Zhang Yu said to Guo Jia: "Cao Cao, I don't bow my head in the face of a desperate situation, I will personally kill him tomorrow and give him a beautiful funeral." ”

This is a tribute to a fighter, if it was Liu Bei, Zhang Yu would be pulled directly to the mass grave.

For three days, Cao Cao chose to end one day earlier.

That morning, Cao Ang learned that Cao Cao had secretly mobilized 30,000 soldiers and horses, and he was not an elite.

On the street, Cao Ang knelt on the street.

"Father, you can't go, let your sons go." On the street, Cao Ang roared out and then lay on the ground.

Cao Cao put on armor that he hadn't worn for a long time today, and he was holding a sword of the Son of Heaven in his hand.

He was in good spirits and had a straight back, but his face was not very good.
