Chapter 434: Sending Troops

Thank you to the Inhata brothers for a monthly pass!

"Your Majesty, although the defeat of Budugen has caused a great change in the form of the grassland, but now that my Great Wei soldiers are strong and strong, as long as we can prevent the three southern countries from taking advantage of the fire to rob, then it is easy to send troops to the north and level the grassland."

Cao Cao didn't stop Jia Xu, although Jia Xu was wrong, but it didn't hurt, after all, as he said, it was very easy for the strong Wei State to lay down the grassland with great vitality.

"This matter, after the end of the year, you monarchs and ministers are discussing it, but Budugen is really a waste, and it is okay, this also gives me an excuse to remove the military power from his hands smoothly and normally."

In the last paragraph, Cao Cao's voice was so small that it was inaudible, Jia Xu only heard Cao Cao's busy words, since Cao Cao already had a plan, then Jia Xu didn't say more, and retreated to the rear with a bow.

Next, after talking to the people for a while, Cao Cao led the civil and military officials back to the palace, and at this time, the first day of the first year of Hongwu was over.

After arriving at the palace, Cao Cao let them out of the palace after rewarding the civil and military ministers with some gifts, after all, although the grassland situation changed distance, but at this time, a month had passed, and a day or two was postponed, there was no difference, not to mention, if it was so late today, even if they were left behind, it was unlikely that anything would be discussed.

Wei inherited the Han system, and five is a holy number, so the five days after the first year are considered to be the rest days of the civil and military officials, of course, this only refers to those ordinary civil and military officials, such as Xun Yu. Zhao Yun and other civil and military generals had been summoned by Cao Cao to the Xuande Hall at this time.

After the monarch and the minister met each other. Cao Cao sat down and looked at the civil and military ministers below. He said: "Everyone, I summoned you to wait for him to come this time, just for one thing, the Budugen grassland was defeated, Kobe Bryant was able to unify most of the grassland again, and the northern capital protectorate and the three Wuhuan fell into disadvantage, what do you think about this?" ”

"Your Majesty. Yichen seems to have something else to look at, send troops directly, completely eliminate Kobineng, and occupy the entire grassland! ”

Cao Ren expressed his opinion in a loud voice, that is, to type one word, completely eliminate Kobineng, and bring the entire grassland under the rule of Great Wei.

Cao Ren's idea can be regarded as Cao Cao's methods, at least the completion of the first city built on the grassland. and the cattle, sheep and horses that have been brought in from the grassland in large quantities, have made these people of the world understand that the grassland can still be occupied, and it still has great benefits. Although it cannot be cultivated, it can be used for grazing and transporting war horses to the inland areas of the Central Plains. Cattle and sheep and other civilian, strategic materials.

Since ancient times, China has lacked several usable war horses. This led to the fact that even if it was as powerful as the Qin and Han dynasties, it was for a large part of the time. can only play defensive counterattacks, not take the initiative to attack, but this point has been completely solved in Dawei.

As a result of the establishment of two puppet nomadic regimes on the grassland, not only solved the problem of the source of war horses, but also used it to rule the number of cavalry in the three southern kingdoms, and in a few years, the total number of cavalry in the Great Wei has reached as much as 150,000.

Among them, there are only 30,000 heavy cavalry, and the remaining 120,000 are all light cavalry, and as for the expenses of these war horses, a huge grassland is enough to solve it.

Compared with the huge scale of the cavalry, the three southern kingdoms, because they did not get the source of war horses, coupled with Cao Cao's continuous suppression, only 20,000 or 30,000 cavalry were organized in the early and middle period of the chaos in the world, and in places like Bashu, the number of cavalry is even smaller, only a few thousand, which can be described as shabby.

Just the puppet regime ruling the grassland is a huge benefit, if it is replaced by the direct rule of the Great Wei, thinking of this, the civil official department looked at Cao Ren who asked for war, and his gaze was unprecedentedly soft, especially the frustration in charge of the household department, looking at Cao Ren's gaze was as dazzling as the sun.

Since getting the grassland, the introduction of cattle and sheep on the grassland, the past has been bitter and frustrated, can be regarded as keeping the clouds open and seeing the moon, the introduction of these things in a few years accounted for two-tenths of the total income of the Wei State, which is equivalent to a two-tenths increase in taxes out of thin air, although compared to occupying eight-tenths of the agricultural income, this one is not much, but has become a financial fan of frustration, and does not refuse, after all, no matter how small the mosquito meat is, it is also meat, not to mention that the tax on the grassland is not small.

Seeing the appearance of the civil and military officials, Cao Cao understood that there was no need to ask some words, and he knew by looking at them that they had no opinion on starting a war.

Of course, Cao Cao determined at one time that the Han people were not unaggressive, but because the places that were rich enough had been occupied by the Han people, and the rest were some sinister places, such as the Indochina Peninsula, which was not fully developed at this time, full of swamps, deep mountains and old forests, what to do when a place like this was occupied, is it useful, after all, the emperor at that time was not like Cao Cao had the memory of later generations, and knew that the Indochina Peninsula was a place where grain was produced.

As for the Western Regions, it is a cornucopia, so the final fate of the Western Regions can be seen from the Western Regions Protectorate, which is an institution that has been passed down to future generations, so in this regard, the Han people in ancient times were still pragmatic.

"Okay, since you don't object, then send troops to completely eliminate Kobineng and bring the entire grassland under the rule of my Great Wei!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

After all, for the military generals, it is possible to improve their status, and for civil officials, it is to set up a city, there are more official hats, and there are more places to collect taxes.

"Your Majesty, although my Great Wei soldiers are strong and strong, we must also beware of the three southern countries taking advantage of the fire to rob, according to the minister's opinion, before sending troops, we must first solve the hidden dangers of the three southern countries."

Literati just love to buy Guanzi, and this character is no exception even if it is Wen Ruo.

After complaining slightly, Xun Yu's face was full of bamboo, and after smiling completely in his opinion, he still asked very cooperatively: "What is Wen Ruo's opinion?" ”

Xun Yu, who had Cao Cao's cooperation, had a smile on his face even more, and he no longer sold Guanzi, and said: "Your Majesty, the key to solving the Three Kingdoms in the South lies in one person, that is, the pseudo-Han envoy Fa Zheng!" (To be continued......)
