Chapter 955: The First Northern Expedition V
In the early morning, the goose feather snow completely covered the entire Luoyang City.
"Ruixue Mega Year!"
Cao Cao wore a black dragon brocade robe, carried his hands behind his back, stood on the highest tower of Shangyang Palace, looked at the wind and snow with divine eyes, and sighed: "This year's snow is much bigger than in previous years, there is rarely such a heavy snow in Luoyang, I hope there will be a bumper harvest next year!" ”
"Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and your voice can be heard by heaven!" A middle-aged Confucian stood behind Cao Cao and said lightly: "The coming year will definitely be a bumper harvest year!" ”
"Sir, that's a mistake!"
When Cao Cao heard this, he shook his head, and the corners of his mouth outlined a sarcastic smile: "I am only the monarch of the Great Wei, not the Son of Heaven, under the sky, the only son, leading the common people, Dingjiang and Mountain, the Son of Heaven is unparalleled, now there are two Ninety-Five Honors in the world, who is the true Son of Heaven, I can't say!" ”
"Your Majesty, the Son of Heaven is only in your heart, Your Majesty's heart is already shouldering the world, and you deserve the life of the Son of Heaven!" The middle-aged Confucian said every word, and he spoke very calmly.
"Hahaha!"
When Cao Cao heard this, he was slightly stunned, as if he couldn't believe that the Confucian student next to him could say such a compliment, but he quickly reacted and laughed loudly: "I love to listen to this statement, Gonghe, I want to be a veritable son of heaven, are you willing to help me?" ”
This middle-aged Confucian who stood beside Cao Cao and enjoyed the snow scene together was the frustration of being idle in Luoyang City for a long time.
"I want to help the people!" Fu Zhi replied calmly: "Only when the world is peaceful can the people live a good life." ”
"The common people of Great Wei?" Cao Cao's eyes were shining.
"It's all the people!"
He nodded silently, although he still couldn't get past the hurdle in his heart now, but if he didn't want to go out of the mountain, he wouldn't be standing here today.
He is not afraid of death, he is afraid of living as a waste.
Idle for too long. He watched the world change coldly, and he was conceited and talented, but he could only spend his days at leisure, which he couldn't bear, so it was better to cut him with a knife.
"Good!"
Cao Cao's heart was certain, and his expression was overjoyed. began to throw out his chips: "Gonghe, Liangzhou has been peaceful, but after years of war, the people of Liangzhou are miserable, I need a good hand to calm the people's livelihood in Liangzhou, I want to come and go, only you are the most suitable!" ”
"Liangzhou?"
Hearing this, his brows furrowed: "Ma Chao surrendered?" ”
"Yesterday, Zixiu was already eight hundred miles in an emergency. Came the good news of Liangzhou, three days ago, Ma Chao in Jicheng, opened the city gate, and the whole country fell! ”
When Cao Cao said this, he was full of spirits, and the results of the battle of Liangzhou had exceeded his expectations, and he took Liangzhou. In the collection of the elite Xiliang army under the command of Ma Chao, for Dawei. Significant.
"Liangzhou returns to Wei, the fierce general Ma Chao, 100,000 Western Liang tigers and wolves, Great Wei will definitely be like a tiger with wings, I want to dominate the world, it is not a fantasy!" Cao Cao's gaze looked down at the vast world. Drink proudly.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty!"
Fu Zhi sighed in his heart, and the last trace of hesitation was gone, after Liangzhou, Cao Wei did have the ability to fight to the death with Eastern Wu.
"Gonghe, your talent. I know it very well! ”
Cao Cao turned around, held the hand of the frustrated teacher, and said sincerely: "I am willing to take the position of Liangzhou Assassin History, please go out of the mountain to help the Great Wei, and also ask the public to help me to dominate the world as soon as possible and benefit the people in the world!" ”
The ability of the frustration is basically between Xun Yu, the prime minister of the Great Wei Dynasty, if it is only the internal affairs of the wheel, Xun Yu is stronger, but the frustration has a deep attainment in military strategy, and the comprehensive ability is definitely no longer under Xun Yu, and it is just right to put it in Liangzhou now.
Because Liangzhou has just been taken, the internal has not been completely pacified, and there are Qiang people outside, and the people who preside over Liangzhou must not only have the ability to cultivate and recuperate, but also have the military ability to make thunderous decisions.
"Your Majesty is so generous, you dare to disobey your fate!" Frustrated with his hands arched, he bowed respectfully to Cao Cao.
At this moment, he had to admit in his heart that Cao Cao was more courageous than Yuan Shao.
At least Yuan Shao doesn't have such a big mind, and he dares to demote himself to a feudal general, that is a gamble, Liangzhou Assassin History is not an ordinary position, if he has two hearts for Great Wei, the entire Liangzhou will become the beginning of the turmoil of the Great Wei Dynasty!
"Gonghe, I don't hide it from you, in fact, I have to use you!"
Cao Cao helped up and smiled slightly wryly: "Now our Great Wei seems to be standing side by side with Eastern Wu, separating the north and the south, but I know in my heart that Eastern Wu is pressing Great Wei!" ”
"Why does Your Majesty say that?" Frustrated and confused.
"If the Wei army and the Wu army are at war in the world, I am not afraid of it, and my son will not be inferior to his Eastern Wu soldiers, but I know very well that Eastern Wu is stronger than Great Wei, where is the strength, and the overall national strength is strong!"
Cao Cao looked into the distance, looked at the southeast direction, and said in a deep voice: "There are some things that others don't understand, but I know very well, Dongwu can now do not starve a single person, which I can't do, the prosperity of this Luoyang is always just Luoyang City, even if the people in Yuzhou and Yanzhou, where I started, freeze to death and starve to death in such a big winter, there are so many, I don't want to save it, but I can't save it!" ”
"There will be Northern Xinjiang in Dongwu, and their people are under the ice and snow, will life be better?"
"It's better than the people of Great Wei!"
Cao Cao's expression was solemn, and his heavy voice said word by word: "Fei I am self-weak, the fact is so, the ghost pawn got back from Youzhou Liaodong is not a small news, Dongwu has focused on people's livelihood since the era of Sun Jian, after Sun Quan ascended the throne, life is getting better day by day, there are people who died in battle, not starvation to death, it is really rare!" ”
"Your Majesty, if Soochow can do it, you can too, but the road has to be taken step by step!"
Said in frustration.
"You're right, the road has to be taken step by step, but we must go, we can't stop, resting on our laurels will only perish, only stepping out is the road, and the same is true for the government!"
Cao Cao nodded, his expression quickly became excited, he was the king of Great Wei, he saw the overall situation of the world, and he didn't have too many feelings in his heart, he directly took out a dossier: "This is a new policy strategy, and many of the policies on it are plagiarized from Wu Guo." In fact, I don't even know whether Wu's political strategy is good or bad, but the people of Wu are now better off than us, and that is a fact, and it is worth learning from.
Therefore, according to the policy strategy formulated by the Wu State, I and Wen Ruo formulated a set of new policies that could be adapted to the Great Wei after improvement, but we don't know if we can let the court adapt to it. I want you to experiment with the New Deal in Liangzhou and see how it works? ”
"Why me?" Frustrated with some confusion, this is not a good errand.
"Because you're the best!" Cao Cao replied.
"The best way to carry the black pot?"
A gleam burst out of his eyes, and he said with some mockery: "Since ancient times, any new deal has to go through a certain experiment, and the number of failures is many. ”
"That's right!"
Cao Cao did not deny it. There is no need to hide in front of smart people, he nodded calmly: "I have this meaning, I think about it, I only think that you are the most suitable, first, you are a general, and it has nothing to do with the courtiers, second." You were able to assist Yuan Shao in ruling Hebei back then, and your ability was not weaker than Wen Ruo's. All in all, you are the most suitable, and if the new deal fails, I will definitely pull you to bear the charge, but once it succeeds, you will become the leader of the new faction of Great Wei. To do it, or not to do it, I won't force you! ”
"Your Majesty didn't hide it from the ministers, but made the ministers feel a lot more settled!"
Fu Zhu smiled slightly, not objecting at all. If there is danger, there is a chance, since he chose to enter the Great Wei as an official, he is not a pure-hearted person, so he is naturally unwilling to succumb to others, and it may not be a good thing for him to have a chance.
"This dossier Weichen will take a good look at it, but Weichen still needs His Majesty to promise me a few conditions!" Frustrated said.
"Say!"
"First, I want the old ministers of the Jin Kingdom, and I also want the students of Handan Academy, Your Majesty knows very well that Liangzhou is in ruins, and if you want to make achievements in a short period of time and appease the court, I can't do without help!"
After the fall of the Jin Kingdom, several giants either died or surrendered to Eastern Wu or Cao Wei, but there were still a group of central officials who were abolished, which was a group of talents.
"Yes!" Cao Cao nodded, he couldn't just give tasks and not benefits, since he wanted to support Fu Zhi to become a new party, he couldn't say anything if he didn't have a little party membership.
"Second, I want money!" Frustrated with his eyes, like a profiteer, he stretched out a slap: "At least this number!" ”
"It's too ruthless!" The corners of Cao Cao's mouth twitched slightly.
"Your Majesty, if this number is missing, you should find someone else to do this Liangzhou Thorn History!" Fu Zhu was very resolute: "It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, you won't understand this truth!" ”
"I'll give it to you!" Cao Cao was helpless.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" He smiled and thanked him.
"You're done, then I'll make a request!" Cao Cao's eyes became sharp: "Within a year, self-sufficiency, within three years, feed back to the court!" ”
"It's a deal!" Frustrated nodded: "The minister dares to make a military order!" ”
"No, I believe you!"
Cao Cao shook his head, the variables in Liangzhou are too big, this thing can't be done, frustration is a talent, even if he fails in Liangzhou, it will not reduce the weight in his heart, he still has to use this talent.
——————————————————————
Under the same violent storm and snowstorm, in a mountain stream in the northern suburbs of Luoyang City, the atmosphere was a little gloomy.
This is the base camp of the ghosts.
Jia Xu, the commander of the ghost pawns, is in a very bad mood now, very bad, sitting in the hall of the stone room, his face is gloomy and dripping water, and no one dares to approach him with the chill in his eyes.
The power of the southwest hall that had been operating for several years was completely wiped out.
Even his eldest son, Jia Mu, was pinched by Jinyiwei, so it's no wonder that his mood can get better.
"Zhuge Kongming!" A name popped out from between his teeth.
In the southwest, the ghost pawn either lost to Jinyiwei, but lost to Zhuge Liang, or this person made a game and wiped out the entire southwest hall.
"Grand Commander, does Hall Master Jia need to be rescued?" A henchman stepped forward and asked in a low voice.
"Save?"
When Jia Xu heard this, he smiled coldly, looked at this henchman with a cold gaze, and asked, "Can we save the Jinyi guard he entered?" ”
"Great Commander, Jingzhou Tangkou has heard some news, Hall Master Jia is about to be escorted back to Jinling, we can do it on the way!"
This henchman is the hall master of the Netherworld Hall, originally a ranger in the rivers and lakes, and after joining the ghost pawn, he quickly became Jia Xu's henchman, named Shi A, and now the first master of the ghost pawn.
Shi A once followed the Sword Saint Wang Yue to practice swordsmanship, and there was a friendship between master and apprentice, but the goals followed by the two were different, he pursued three thousand red dust, and he was crowned an official and knighted, so he joined the ghost pawn.
"You think it's an opportunity, and Li Nie thinks it's an opportunity, but he won't give us this opportunity!" Jia Xu's face was cold, and he said in a deep voice: "Most of the routes that can let us know are a trap!" ”
"Commander, that's not necessarily!"
Shi A shook his head and said in a low voice: "My subordinates personally took the most elite soldiers of the ghost soldiers to intercept them, and we no longer do it on the road, we will start in Jinling City, this is the most dangerous and the easiest place to get it!" ”
"How sure are you?" Jia Xu was a little moved.
"Sancheng!"
"Sancheng?"
Jia Xu's face was a little struggling, and he hesitated.
"Great Commander, there is only one chance, once he imprisons Hall Master Jia, we want to do it, it will be too late!"
Shi A said in a low voice: "At that time, Jinyiwei doesn't need to torture Hall Master Jia, as long as they use Hall Master Jia's identity to create some misunderstandings, it is easy to provoke Your Majesty's trust in the Great Commander, after all, he is your son!" ”
"Be careful yourself!"
Jia Xu's fists clenched slightly, and after thinking about it for a long time, he closed his eyes and said: "If you can't do anything, you must not damage the power of the Netherworld, we have been operating this Jinling City for a long time, and we must not mess up the situation because of him!" ”
"Yes!"
Shi Ah nodded, and then hurriedly left the stone room.
In the gloomy stone room, Jia Xu was alone, and began to flip through some information that had been transmitted intermittently from the southwest, although the power of the southwest hall was defeated, but the news network was not completely destroyed.
It's just that the entire hall has been destroyed, and the news that has come back has not been verified, and there is not much useful information, but Jia Xu still looked at it very carefully.
He hoped to find some clues from it, which would allow him to sort out the situation after Wu Jun took Bashu.
"Suddenly gather cavalry at this time? Why, exactly? ”
He found a message that puzzled him.
"No, the news of Yangpingguan should come back once a day, but it's been a few days, and the news has been cut off, what's going on?"
He continued to flip through the news file in the southwest, but before he could think deeply, a voice came from outside.
"Great Commander, Eagle Yang Hall, Fang Shi asks to see!"
"Please!"
Jia Xu closed the file in his hand.
"Great Commander, my subordinates have found a few strongholds of the Jinyi Guard in the city!" Fang Shi walked in and said in retribution.
"That's true!"
Jia Xu looked overjoyed and asked with some excitement.
The ghost pawn was established later than the Jinyi Guard, one step behind, one step behind, one step behind, they can only catch up behind the Jinyi Guard, they are sweeping the strength of the Jinyi Guard every year, but there are still not a few Jinyi Guards lurking in Luoyang City, which has become a big problem for his henchmen.
"When Yingyangtang was tracking down the clues of the rats, he found several Jinyi Guard contact bases, most of which were in the East Market!"
Fang Shi nodded and said, "And I'm still staring at a big fish!" ”
"Who?"
"Jinyi Wei Luoyang Guard, Thousand Households!" Fang Shi said.
"Well done!"
Jia Xu's thoughts completely left the news on the file in his hand, he stood up and said, "Don't startle the snake, I'll personally pull out this big net!" ”
"Yes!" Fang Shi nodded. (To be continued.) )
