Chapter six hundred and sixty-five.

"Then Liaodong..."

Mr. Wang's first words fully exposed his "small business" consciousness, conservative of the old market, and unwilling to open up "new market", but now Mr. Cao's head was squeezed by the door, and he nodded without hesitation.

"It's still your command!"

This is a bit of a real trick. The independent warlords and the territory under their jurisdiction spread from Liaodong to Guanzhong. Wang Hou's power was even more fierce than the Huns! After all, the Huns could not be involved in Guanzhong! If it were about power, I'm afraid that the Han Empire would be the only one who ruled was Wang Hou. He could not compare to the territory of Liu Bei's Shu Kingdom during his heyday.

Cao Cao's head was really clamped by the door? He took the initiative to give him such great power!

However, such a great power was indeed not given for nothing. After changing his tone, Cao Cao expressed his request again.

"I appointed you as the Great Xingtai of Guanzhong and is in charge of Guanzhong's military and political affairs, and it was not a grant from me. Han Sui and Ma Chao two rebels. You want to compare their heads to me. Liangzhou must be pacified!"

"And I will give you three years. Haven't you been there all these days and you have been sad about the spring and autumn. Why did the Zheng Guo Canal be desolate? In three years, you will have to rebuild the Zheng Guo Canal for me! Re-irrigate the eight hundred miles of Guanzhong! In the third year, I will see at least 500,000 stones of grain tribute to Yecheng!"

"Three years, 500,000 stones of grain! My Xiangfu! It took ten years to gather the efforts of Qin to build the Zheng Guo Canal! Now that the population in Guanzhong has withered, I am afraid that even 500,000 people will be less than 500,000! You want your son-in-law to fight and plow the fields, aren't you making things difficult for the son-in-law?"

The face turned into a sausage, looking like he was still a Huabei at the beginning of the month. Wang Hou asked for it in great tragic way. Unfortunately, Cao Cao didn't ask him to come and did not reason with him. With this gloomy face, President Cao hummed with a domineering president.

"Miaocai led 10,000 troops to guard Chang'an to help you defend! In addition, I appointed your old subordinate Sima Zhongda as the governor of Yongzhou and will be dispatched by you!"

"The true appearance is just to make things difficult for you, Wang Tu, to ask for it! There is no reason! You must do it for it! Otherwise, the true appearance will make you look good!"

Still helping? Xiahou Yuan's ten thousand people were watching him, and his old subordinates. Sima Yi was unwilling to be subordinate. When Wang Hou was in charge of Qingzhou, the two were already in harmony! Cao Cao transferred him to Yongzhou as his subordinate, which was also a constraint on him. Moreover, depending on his appearance, he had to take care of the military pay and ration expenses of Xiahou Yuan's 10,000 Central Army.

His mouth was bitter, and Wang Hou asked in a low voice again.

"Uh! Xiangfu, how dare you ask, I recommend the son-in-law, but Doctor Jia Xu?"

"It is your subordinate, Sima Yi, the governor of Yongzhou, and Jia Xu, who advised me before the resolution of my prime minister, that you, Wang Tu, would you, who are guarding the border, give me a complete collection of the two states! But you, Wang Wu, is the son-in-law of my Cao Mengde. I believe in the Red Festival and believe in you! So, do it well for me!"

Looking at Cao Cao's appearance as good as our brothers, and his expression was as if the manager patted his shoulder and wanted to achieve his own achievements, Wang Hou vomited even more blood.

Who said Cao Cao is old? Who said that Cao Cao's ambitions faded after the Battle of Red Cliff? He is a big bet!

Although the Battle of Weinan destroyed all 100,000 troops of the Guanzhong Allied Forces, Ma Chao ran away in a hurry, but the situation in the northwest was very complicated!

I would like to thank Emperor Guangwu for his excellent policies. Since the Eastern Han Dynasty established his capital Luoyang, the western border of the empire allowed the Western Qiang, Di people and Xiongnu to enter the empire to engage in farming. The good point of this policy was to promote national integration and the spread of Han culture, but now it is very bad. The population of Liangzhou is relatively abundant, and the number of Han people is only half! Yongzhou Guanzhong is better because the warlords have been fighting for years, and those who can escape have fled to Guandong.

In particular, Guanzhong Yongzhou actually only includes Xi'an, Baoji, Weinan, Tongchuan and Xianyang in Shaanxi, and Yan'an and Yulin in the Loess Plateau to enter the north, including part of Gansu in later generations. At this time, it had become the autonomous region of the Xiqiang, and it was almost unregulated and unauthorized!

Then there is Liangzhou, which is roughly the same as later generations of Gansu. The whole is the famous Hexi Corridor, sandwiched between the two mountains. Ma Chao and Han Sui have been operating here for many years. The Qiang, Han and Di tribes are all very popular, and their influence is far beyond that of Wang Hou, an outsider.

These are all threats from the north, from the south. Zhang Lu from Hanzhong is not a fellow Taoist Wang Hou. When he goes south, Zhuge's brother has to come and take down him after he rises.

Moreover! In later generations, Shaanxi's agricultural output ranked last in the country. It is said that Qinchuan was 800 miles away. To be honest, I actually came here to wander around. The land fertileness here is not as strong as the arable land fertility he obtained on the banks of the Liao River! Not to mention that it already belongs to the Songnen Plain in the Black Soil Zone.

It can be said that Guanzhong is also quite useless. The four battles are just like this. The only advantage is that the tiger is located on the important transportation point of the Silk Road in the Western Regions. It is directed to the east by Qinchuan to press Guandong, and goes southwest through Hanzhong to Bashu, and goes southeastward and goes southward to Wuguan to Jingzhou. The strategic position is particularly important, with just a little advantage.

But it is useless to Wang Hou! He has no ambition to dominate the world and is just trying to do business honestly and make money, be the most wealthy man in a simple and unpretentious man, and live a boring and boring life for rich people.

Therefore, Cao Cao had to hand over the position of Guanzhong's major Taiwan! If he went to pacify Guanxi by himself, he would need at least 100,000 troops to defend the war, and a million yuan of food and salary would be light. I'm afraid it would take several years to fight, and the salary would cost tens of millions. More importantly, it was equivalent to dragging Cao Han to an embarrassing state of fighting on two fronts. In history, Cao Wei was so difficult to unify the world, and he was also trapped in the battles on these two fronts. He continued to fight with Prime Minister Zhuge on the Western Front. Five battles were held in Hefei Wei and Wu. This year, Mr. Cao was going to find a place to fight three times.

Yes, Guan Yu rushed to the middle line. If it weren't for Liu Bei's diplomatic problems, the ally of Eastern Wu would have stabbed him in the back, and Cao Cao almost gave up Yingchuan and other places to move Emperor Xian of Han and the capital to Yecheng to take refuge.

But now, if you hand over Guanzhong to Wang Hou, you must first feel at ease. Not to mention Wang Hou’s relationship with his in-laws, only the mountain goods store from Liaodong, and the grassland specialty store opened west from Qingzhou to front of Tongguan. From horse chariots, beds, wood, pots, pans, soy sauce and tea leaves, and almost all the business in the north of Dahan was monopolized by Wang Hou.

This is enough to reassure Cao Cao. Unlike the Huns, Liaodong and the inner city are too close. If this kid really dares to slap him, Cao Cao will seal the border, and there will be no source of mainland business. If he can't hold it in a few months, the dirty and greedy big capitalists in Liaodong will be crazy, so Wang Hou will naturally not be able to sit still and have to make people rush.

This is also because Sima Yi was not at ease and kind. The bigger the territory, the better. If you walk from Wang Hou's hometown in Liaodong to Guanzhong, it takes three months to walk and ride a horse and get on a lighter seat, it takes one month to rush. Wang Hou's rule is less difficult than ruling the huge Han Empire, which is equivalent to dividing Wang Hou's power.

Not to mention driving the ducks on the shelves, Wang Hou had to repair the Zheng Guo Canal and then give tribute to Yecheng. These were all purely to consume the power of Liaodong to enrich himself.

Another point is that it is possible that Wang Hou is really making a big splash, occupying the main traffic route of Guanzhong fertile fields, punching Ma Chao and Han Sui, kicking Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei, and becoming a overlord?

This possibility is too great, so Cao Cao bet on this point, betting that he is more powerful than this lazy boy. Before he is full of wings, he already pinched Sun Quan's neck and cleaned him up, and also put Jingzhou and Bashu into his pocket and unified the entire Han Empire. At that time, he would not care about the bitter and cold land occupied by Wang Hou at all.

"There is no reason to go back to the Prime Minister, but if you asked Xiao Xu to defend the Western Xinjiang for you, can you meet the conditions?"

"explain!"

"Don't kill Ma Teng's family! Give it to your son-in-law!"

Wang Hou will definitely not be able to fight the popularity among the Qiang and Di people, but he can revive the soul with a corpse! Isn’t Ma Teng famous? Let him stand by his side as a decoration in the name of attacking unfilial sons, and Liangzhou will be much more pacified!

Cao Cao couldn't help but hesitate. Ma Chao rebelled and did not kill Ma Teng, but he lost his majesty. Doesn't this encourage the border general to rebel in disguise?

However, compared with Wang Hou jumping out of the tank, the political losses caused were minimal, so after only two or three seconds of thinking, Cao Cao agreed very happily.

"Can!"

"The second point is that if the people who fled to Guanxi and who were assigned to the military camp and who were willing to return to their hometown, the Prime Minister would also be allowed to leave!"

"this……"

"Xiangfu, the population of Liaodong is less than 500,000, Guanzhong is less than 300,000, and nearly half of Liangzhou are Qiang people. If you don't farm, you have no population! Even if you kill your son-in-law, I can't dig the Zheng Guo Canal in three years, let alone 500,000 stones of grain!"

He immediately turned Grandet with a sad face. Wang Hou screamed in great tragic manner. Finally, Mr. Cao waved his slap helplessly.

"Can!"

"make a deal!"

Although he agreed loudly, Wang Hou's painful appearance was not as if he had just become the number one powerful minister of the Han Empire. Instead, he was like a loss-making business, and he was trembling with pain. Seeing that Xiahou Yuan, who was one level shorter than him, was slapped them!

That is the Guanzhong major bureau and Taiwan. The military and political industry is responsible for the senior officials in charge of the two states! This grandson pretends to be stunning!
