Chapter 828: Two Evils
Going to Jingzhou at this time? Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao died in the hands of Huang Jie, and now Liu Biao's son is a puppet on the surface, Huang Biao has sent troops to Yizhou again, and he sees that Jingzhou is about to give it to Liu Bei.
And Liu Bei was let go by Liu Mang in Yangzhou, because when Liu Bei entered Yuzhou, it didn't seem like someone was blocking him.
Alive, Liu Zong, Huang Jie, Liu Bei, Liu Mang.
One ring after another, let Cao Cao's study and Reed meditate hard.
"The praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind!" Cheng Yu spoke, this Yangzhou Liu Mang can't be so simple, the action of the Yangtze River Navy Battalion must be for Jingzhou, it can't be pulled out and slippery.
Huang Jie used Liu Zong as a puppet, and Liu Bei He occupied Nestle to take down Huang Shot's Yizhou, and it may eventually become Liu Mang's dowry.
If it is really such a calculation, then this Yangzhou Liu Mang is really terrible.
"But with Yangzhou's strength, if you really want to take Jingzhou, there's no need to calculate like this?" Cheng Yu over there doesn't understand, the current Yangzhou is not what it used to be, Liu Biao and Jiangdong teamed up to win Yangzhou back then, and now that Liu Biao is dead, the yellow shot has suppressed the repair cost It should be the time for Jingzhou to recuperate, and his prestige of the yellow shot has not yet reached the point where Jingzhou is united.
At that time, it should be the most convenient time for Yangzhou to attack, instead of delaying for a long time and letting Liu Bei enter Jingzhou.
Isn't this an extra move to take off your pants and fart!
"I'm afraid this qiē is all in the Cai family!" Xun You spoke.
"The Cai family?" Cheng Yu and Cao Cao were both stunned.
The Cai family had contacted Xu Du as early as when Liu Biao was still alive, and the Cai family was simply flattering to Cao Cao at that time. Cao Cao was also very polite. Because he knew that he wanted to take Jingzhou. This Cai Mao's Cai family is bound to be a breakthrough point.
Cao Cao governs the world, mainly relying on the scholars, unless she Cao Cao must get rid of it, the other scholars, Cao Cao only eliminates the first evil, and the entire other scholars are still largely left.
So Cao Cao won the hearts of most of the scholars in the world. Rely on the nobles to rule the world.
This Cai family also has this idea, no matter who governs Jingzhou, it is always the scholar clan who will help. He, Cai Mao, first took sides early, wanting to wait for Cao Cao to take Jingzhou without affecting the status of their Cai family.
But after that, the Cai family seemed to have cut off contact with Cao Cao.
"Lord, this Yangzhou Liu Mang seems to have a special hobby!" Xun Yu said half-revealing and half-speechful. "Special hobby?" Cao Cao was puzzled, what special hobby does this Yangzhou Liu Mang have?
"That Cai Mao's sister, Mrs. Cai, gave birth to an heir for Liu Mang in Yangzhou!" Xun Yu children's shoes satisfied the ** of Cao Cao and Cheng Yu, who went to the bottom of the matter.
"Cai Mao's sister? Cai Mao has two younger sisters? Cao Cao asked, because Cao Cao knew that one of Cai Mao's sisters was Liu Biao's wife, and he Cao Cao had already heard of it, and he Cao Cao had already heard of it, and he couldn't help but add admiration for that Mrs. Cai in his reply to Cai Mao's letter. It's a pity that I heard that Liu Biao killed Mrs. Cai.
"There's only one!" Xun You shook his head and said.
"Say so!" Cheng Yu and Cao Cao thought of something.
"After Mrs. Cai and that Yangzhou Liu Mang were discovered by Liu Biao that day. Liu Biao did not kill Mrs. Cai, and Mrs. Cai was also pregnant. The child didn't need to be killed, and finally it was born.
Mrs. Cai, Liu Biao's wife! Someone else's wife!
Cheng Yu finally knew why Xun Yu wanted to say that Liu Mang in Yangzhou had a unique hobby, because this was exactly what their lord Cao Cao also liked.
Every time Cao Cao conquered an enemy1 in a city, you would find that the enemy's wife and concubine would inevitably appear under Cao Cao's bed the next morning.
Cao Cao's strictest zhòng was Wancheng Zhang Xiu, in that battle, he Cao Cao got carried away, and the pimp Cao Anmin, and the final result was that he Cao Cao was really defeated, the army was defeated, his eldest son was killed in battle, and his most trusted general Dian Wei was also killed.
This qiē is all because of Cao Cao's special hobby.
It is precisely because of this that Xun You said cautiously, in order not to anger Cao Cao over there. His hobby Cao Cao almost killed himself, his son died, and his eldest wife still hasn't taken care of him.
But what he didn't expect was that this Cao Cao was not ashamed, but proud, only to see Cao Cao laugh. "This Liu Mang, Liu Hanyang is also a wonderful person!"
The lord himself didn't care anymore, and the two people on the side were naturally relieved.
Cao Cao laughed, he can be regarded as having found his own kind, like-minded, and now Cao Cao admires Liu Mang more and more as an enemy over there. "This Han King Liu Mang may be because of this Mrs. Cai, so he didn't directly do it to Jingzhou!" Xun You guessed that this person was worthy of Wang Zuozhicai, and he had already guessed what Liu Mang was thinking over there with some information. "Mrs. Cai not only left an heir for Liu Mang, the king of Han, but also Liu Biao, the current Jingzhou Mu Liu Zong! Maybe Yangzhou is because this state pastor is Liu Zong and has the kindness of Mrs. Cai, so he can't do it! "Woman's kindness!" Cao Cao shook his head and said to Cheng Yu Xun Yu over there.
Cheng Yu didn't think so, he Cao Cao just now was also because Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao wanted to give up that opportunity. "If Liu Bei seizes the territory of Huang Jie, then I'm afraid that our Royal Highness the King of Han will have an excuse to send troops to Jingzhou!" The praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind. "This Liu Bei will not sit back and wait to be killed! With the Yangtze River natural insurance, this Yangzhou army will not be able to get it in a while and a half if it wants to enter Jingzhou! If he waited for Yi to succeed in controlling the soldiers and horses in Huang Archer's hand and taking Yizhou again, then Liu Bei's wings would really be hard. Cheng Yu asked suspiciously.
"Although Changtian is dangerous, don't forget it, you can also go to Nanyang County to enter Jingzhou!" Xun Yu explained to Cao Cao and Cheng Yu.
"Nanyang County? Is that possible? Will the Cai family and the Kuai family let Liu Mang's army pass? Isn't that a wolf in the house! Cheng Yu denied it, because some of Liu Mang's songs about Yangzhou's new policy did grasp the hearts of many people, but he also broke the hearts of many scholars.
Two of them are the most critical. One of them is the recruitment order. Meritocracy. Doesn't this break the iron rice bowl of the scholars as officials? You've smashed my job, will those scholars give you a good face? In addition, the land has been nationalized, and all the people of the Shi clan count the land according to their heads, and they cannot buy and sell it, and they can only sell it to the government, which has cut off the roots of those landlords.
You must know that in the small-scale peasant economy, the scholars are the big landlords. You've taken our family's land, aren't you just raiding the house?
Those scholars who are now under the scope of Yangzhou's governance are just forced to do so, and they are stronger than people.
So when Sun Ce was about to surrender to Yangzhou, Zhang Zhao chose to mutiny, but unfortunately he was unlucky and failed to kill Sun Ce.
The Cai family and the Kuai family are one of the largest families in Jingzhou, if they bring the Yangzhou army into Nanyang County, it will be easy to please the gods. After this destroyed Liu Bei, this Cai family and Kuai family will also be merged into Yangzhou. Even if Liu Mang is Cai Mao's brother-in-law, I believe that Cai Mao will not do this lightly. That's the foundation of the nobles. "The Cai family doesn't know, but the Kuai family does have this possibility!" Xun You told the Han King Liu Mang's every move in Jingzhou. Kuai Ran and Liu Mang have brotherly righteousness.
The Han King Liu Mang was able to escape from the besieged Jingzhou, and there was really inevitably the sound and shadow of the Kuai family.
"This goes out with the army, one person is enough, why do Cai Mao and Kuai Yue want to marry and join in the fun!" Cao Cao now understood.
The real winner is our Royal Highness the King of Han.
used Liu Bei's-stirring stick to stir up the situation, and used it as a foreshadowing for his entry into Jingzhou, and he was lucky to take Yizhou under his command together.
"He Liu Mang didn't think about it! The lord asked to send troops quickly, use that chess piece, and definitely hit Yangzhou Liu Mang by surprise! Let him steal chickens and rice! "Cheng Yu over there hugged Cao Cao with his fist." Chessman? Xun You's eyes rolled, how did he not know that there was this chess piece, you must know that generally speaking, Cao Cao really didn't hide anything from him Xun You, but now, Xun You's heart couldn't help but dim a little.
Looking at Cheng Yu's confident appearance, Xun You knew that this chess piece must have a lot of ingredients, and it may have a heavy impact on the next battle.
Xun You didn't say much, he knew what it meant to stop, and he also knew that he was probably being involved by Xun Yu, but Xun Yu's face was as calm as ever. "No!" Cao Cao stopped Cheng Yu over there.
"Huh?" Cheng Yu was stunned for a moment.
"Don't use that chess piece for the time being, it's not time yet!" Cao Cao shook his head and said to Cheng Yu over there.
"Lord, are you still worried about Fengxiao's safety? You don't have to, as long as we take Yangzhou and capture Shouchun, the lord can naturally drink and talk with Fengxiao in Shouchun! Cheng Yu persuaded Cao Cao on the side.
Cheng Yu thought that Cao Cao was worried about Guo Jia, but in fact, the main reason was not this, Cheng Yu also said before, since Guo Jia can give this chess piece, he will inevitably leave a way back for his family, this prodigal son, although he is a prodigal on weekdays, but he is still very reliable, and the gentleman is not conducive to being under the wall.
It is precisely because of this that Cao Cao is still very relieved of Guo Jia.
And the reason why Cao Cao didn't use that chess piece, but in his opinion, Liu Mang, the king of Han, was much easier to deal with than Liu Bei.
Because one is a villain and the other is a hypocrite.
The villain will take revenge if he has revenge, really! Joy, anger and sorrow are all on the face, and the hypocrite is like a poisonous snake, smiling at you on the surface, and may be able to stab you in the back.
The current Liu Mang is this real villain, and Liu Bei over there is the hypocrite.
Cao Cao could also fight against the real villain over there, and he was not willing to fight that hypocrite.
In other words, Cao Cao's dislike for Liu Bei was deeper than Liu Mang's.
"Lord, give up this opportunity, once Yangzhou Liu Mang wins Jingzhou and Yizhou, he can balance and fight against us! When the time comes, it will be like a tiger with wings, and it will be very difficult for me to win this world! Cheng Yu was still persuading Cao Cao not to give up such a great opportunity.
Once it is given up and the Yangzhou army takes Yizhou and Jingzhou, that strength is really doubled, according to the grain and grass of Yizhou in Jingzhou, it is possible for the Yangzhou army to double even if it expands its army.
"Zhongde, have you ever heard of a sentence! The lesser of two evils! Liu Mang, the villain, has ambitions between the micro and the end, although he has a huge power, but the foundation is not stable, not to mention that he has already offended the corporal clan in this world! Even if I, Cao Cao, don't resist, those scholars will quit Zhang Cao, and Liu Cao will come out to resist our His Royal Highness the King of Han. Cao Cao saw through the essence of the matter at a glance.
At present, Yangzhou Liu Mang is taking the business standard, attaching importance to businessmen and encouraging the development of commerce, so that Yangzhou can think about the development of capital economy from a small peasant economy.
The result of this is to eliminate those big landlords, turn them into big factory owners, business owners, from internal oppression to external expansion, those former scholars only know their own one-third of an acre of land, and do not care about the rest. I only know how to buy land, buy people, farm and squeeze those people, but now it is different, their land has been confiscated and belongs to the government, and the government vigorously supports them to do business.
There are merchants who buy and sell, and there are merchants who make products. If you want to make money and make a lot of money, then you need cheaper raw materials, you need less cost, they will naturally look for cheap raw materials, in Yangzhou, they dare not go too far, but it is different from the outside.
Better markets, better dumping places, such as Jiaozhou and Jingzhou, where his products are not as good as Yangzhou's, naturally become commodity dumping places.
In the end, the price of their raw materials will inevitably be reduced, and then they will buy these cheap raw materials, and then make them into finished products and sell them, forming a vicious circle, so that the local market can only be pressed by the big factory owners in Yangzhou.
As soon as I heard that Yangzhou was going to eliminate the big landlords, those families who had been inherited for decades or even hundreds of years naturally quit.
So resist Liu Mang, these scholars are even more concerned than her Cao Cao.
And Liu Bei is different over there, Liu Bei, like Cao Cao, takes the route of relying on the scholars. If Cao Cao loses to Liu Mang, there may be Zhang Cao and Liu Cao to deal with Liu Mang.
If Cao Cao loses to Liu Bei, then those scholars will also support Liu Bei as if they were themselves.
So compared with the two sides, Liu Bei's threat is the greatest, and Cao Cao's eyes have already emitted light.
Liu Bei doesn't die, he can't sleep well! (To be continued......)
