Chapter 479: Cao Ang's thoughts
Cao Cao thought about it and thought that Cheng Yu was right, the so-called heart of defense is indispensable, and Cao Cao really didn't have much trust in the grassland people, so he still agreed, and brought an additional 20,000 Wei soldiers to guard and suppress those nomadic cavalry.
After the target of the crusade and the soldiers were determined, the important ministers of the Great Wei were naturally relieved, thinking that there was nothing else to do, and when they were about to retire to Cao Cao, Cao Cao dropped a bomb in a hurry, and he wanted to drive the expedition again!
I don't know if it's natural to get used to it, in the face of Cao Cao's personal expedition again, Xun Yu, Chen Gong and other important ministers, after the initial surprise, they quickly became calm, and just said a few words, such as appointing a prince as a candidate for the prison or something, but nothing else was said.
Xun Yu and Chen Gong and other important ministers had no objection, in addition to going with the flow, but also because they were a person who understood, they understood very well that this war was different from the previous civil wars, if nothing else, then this time the Wei army went south, not only to defeat Jing Han's Northern Expeditionary Army, but to start the battle to destroy the country and unify the world!
Since ancient times, the highest attack is to destroy the country and unify the world, the reason why Han Xin was unification of the world by Liu Bang can be said to be impatient to kill, in addition to his own personality factors, more importantly, the world in the early Han Dynasty was almost completely defeated by Han Xin alone!
The attack of destroying the country and the attack of unifying the world on his body have almost become a bright halo constantly swaying in front of Liu Bang, how else can Liu Bang kill him, after all, he is a person who helps you unify the world. It's easy to ruin your world. Such common sense, don't say it's Liu Bang of the old rivers and lakes. Maybe even children understand it very well!
Han Xin's death is precisely because he is too meritorious, and he is not only a master of high merit, but a master of high merit!
Xun Yu and others don't want the Great Wei Dynasty to have a big purge like the Han Dynasty in the future, and the highest official is actually the purge from the emperor, after all, this kind of purge is not what they can expect at all. It is quite possible that, with a slight negligence, he died like that.
After the next day, Cao Cao was forced to purge those high-ranking generals, which led to the final spread to the entire court, it is better to let those generals have no way to make the achievements of the lord now, as long as Cao Cao can lead the army to destroy the three southern kingdoms and pacify the world, there will be no generals who can unify the world in the future, and Cao Cao, who is also the founding emperor.
Cao Cao and Xun Yu and others. Junchen still has a tacit understanding, Xun Yu and the others' worries and thoughts, Cao Cao almost understood after thinking about it. Cao Cao didn't explain this thoroughly, so he made this matter a secret known to the monarch and ministers.
On the selection of the prisoner. Apparently there is nothing to say, and that is Cao Ang. If it weren't for Cao Cao's intention to establish a prince, it would be very likely. Cao Ang was already the crown prince of Great Wei at this time, the next emperor of Great Wei.
As for why Cao Cao didn't make a prince, it was something that the ministers of Great Wei couldn't understand, but they didn't dare to ask Cao Cao, or let Cao Cao make Cao Ang the prince, if Cao Cao misunderstood and feared something because of this, then they would be too wronged.
Regarding Cao Cao's decision not to establish a prince, of course, there are different opinions among the people and the court, most of them are conspiracy theories, but in fact, it is Cao Cao who wants to make Cao Ang the prince, but Cao Ang refuses to die, and he is mixed with his wife wholeheartedly, which can be said to make Cao Cao angry, and at the same time, I don't understand what Cao Ang thinks.
Of course, Cao Cao will never know that the reason why Cao Ang refused to be the prince was entirely because of his father, in Cao Ang's opinion, he was tired just the days when he was in charge of the country, and he had to be the prince, and the emperor after the prince, thinking of Cao Cao's almost every day to deal with the twists and turns, Cao Ang hit a chilling cicada, and he didn't want to be the emperor who was tired half dead, he would rather be a peaceful prince who played the world, eating, drinking and having fun.
It is precisely because of the idea that the father and son are at odds with each other, which has led to Cao Cao, who has not yet established the crown prince of Great Wei, thinking of Cao Ang's desperate refusal, and seeing Guo Jia's swaying back, I don't know why, Cao Cao suddenly wanted to beat Guo Jia.
Cao Cao didn't know, it was not surprising that he had this idea, the reason why Cao Ang wanted to be a prince of peace was completely because of Guo Jia's guidance, after all, this prodigal son, when Cao Ang was a child, compared to Cao Cao, Guo Jia, who was also a teacher and friend, had too deep an impact on him.
Of course, Cao Ang's own latent personality is also very important, at least when he didn't come into contact with Guo Jia, Cao Ang himself was more like an immortal who was not stained with vulgar dust, rather than the eldest prince of Cao Mansion, the current eldest prince.
After the ministers retired, before Cao Cao rested for too long, Cao Pi came to the door, to say that he survived, there was no Cao Ang who died young, and his personality became invisible, so that Cao Pi's character has not changed from history, he doesn't like to talk, his cold face is gloomy in the eyes of outsiders, and as he grows older, he has not changed at all, but has become a lot heavier.
The only thing that makes Cao Cao happy is that compared to Cao Ang's character that makes Cao Cao's hands itch, Cao Pi not only admires him as a father very much in his heart, but even his personality is more like a prince of a country, and he also thinks about how to contribute to the country, just like this time, Cao Pi came to Cao Cao to follow Cao Cao to go on the expedition together.
Fourteen-year-old Cao Pi, compared with a few years ago, is more tall and big, he can get married next year, he is already an adult at this time, for Cao Pi's request, Cao Cao thought about it and did not refuse, but agreed, but not with him on the expedition, but let him lead a thousand cavalry to Zhang Liao to obey orders.
For Zhang Liao, although Cao Cao does not doubt his loyalty, but there should still be some supervision, in Cao Cao's view, betrayal, and sometimes because of the soil that allows it to breed, supervision is to let the soil for betrayal to breed, it is not easy to exist from the beginning!
Although he did not follow Cao Cao to go on the expedition in person, Cao Pi was a little disappointed, but under Cao Cao's profound words, Cao Pi, whose political sensitivity was not low but quite high, also understood something in his heart, and did not say anything about obeying Zhang Liao's orders, but agreed.
After sending Cao Pi away, Cao Cao walked towards the North Palace, this time the royal driver was in person, and he didn't know how long it would take to come back, so on this last day, Cao Cao didn't have any idea of dealing with government affairs, but wanted to get together with his family.
