Chapter 755 The lord is wise
In the Nanpi City of Bohai County, Cao Cao has never left here. It is not that Cao Cao is lingering in the prosperity of Nanpi, nor is that Cao Cao has nostalgia for his close friend Yuan Shao and Yuan Benchu, nor is that he is worried about the tiger, leopard cavalry and elliptical soldiers who are going outside the frontier. ←
The first thing he had to do when he stayed in Nanpi City was that the 300,000 troops slowly revolved back to Yanzhou was too important. Not only did he have to consider the issue of their defense in returning to Yanzhou, but Cao Cao also had to consider who stayed and who would go back.
Now that the north has been pacified, the south must be the main battlefield. The people who stayed behind must have had no major wars. Without wars, it means no contribution. And Hebei cannot be garrisoned, after all, this is the border of the Han Dynasty.
This will really make Cao Cao a headache. It is not good to stay anyone, and it is even worse if you don’t stay. It is not good if you send all the elites to the Central Plains, because the border is also very important after all. You must leave a general who can stand alone on the border. There are many rebellious people under Cao Cao’s command, so Cao Cao has a headache.
There is another one, that is what Yuan Shao left behind. Yes, Cao Cao put out the people of Nanpi and Wen Chou and others. One of the important reasons is what Yuan Shao left behind.
Where was Yuan Shao’s previous base camp? It was Bohai County. In Bohai County, there were things left by Yuan Shao, and there were three holes in the cunning rabbit. Yuan Shao also thought that he would lose, so he left a way out for himself, in this Nanpi City.
Cao Cao was almost three feet tall in Nanpi City, but there was no movement at all, but Cao Cao did not give up. Because this thing really existed. There was no need for Yuan Shao to deceive himself after he died. Because he knew Cao Cao's character, once Cao Cao found out that he was fooled, there was a 99% chance of settlement in the autumn.
It is precisely because of this that Cao Cao stayed in Nanpi City and was guarding against the Gongsun family in Liaodong over there. But now it seems that the eldest son of the Gongsun family is very good and cooperated with his olive branch of Cao. He Ping is the first nail sent by Cao Cao to settle in Liaodong. With the first follower, there will be a second one. Gradually, Liaodong will change his surname to Cao.
"Is there any news about He Ping?" Cao Cao asked Cheng Yu next to him.
"Yes!" Cheng Yu nodded, and Cheng Yu also stayed in Nanpi City. After Cao Cao went to Guo Jia, Cheng Yu slowly became the chief adviser.
"Prince He Ping wrote to say that Gongsun Kang seemed to cooperate with the lord's dispatch very much, without any complaints, and was even happy!" Cheng Yu from the other side reported to Cao Cao.
"Yeah!" Cao Cao nodded with satisfaction. Gongsun Kang would still give face! Of course, Cao Cao would not treat him too badly. He would wait for Liaodong to pacify and let the Gongsun family go to Xudu to be a rich man. As for being an official? Haha, Cao Cao would not let a family that had been enemies with him develop. It would be great if he could save his life.
This is also for their sake. Otherwise, some people will have inappropriate thoughts.
"It just seems that General Wuwei Gongsun Du is not satisfied!" Cheng Yu said in words.
"That Gongsun Du!" Cao Cao narrowed his eyes. People like Gongsun Kang are easy to deal with, just for fame. Cao Cao can fool them into fools and ask them to sell them and still count the money for him.
For example, Zhang Miao and a fool like Bao Xin were fooled by Cao Cao and he lost his old fortune. In the end, he realized that it was too late.
But an old fox like Gongsun Du can't do this anymore. You can only use an old hunter to deal with an old fox. Otherwise, you will not only not be able to catch this fox, but also may make you feel slutty.
When Cao Cao wanted Gongsun Du to surrender, he looked like an old man and threw away the seal of the appointment given by Cao Cao, and was so disdainful that he wanted to be the King of Liaodong. Now that the Yuan brothers are finished, the shields blocking Liaodong are gone, and the old fox immediately changed his house. Not only did he surrender, Cao Cao also risked his offense to please Cao Cao with Yangzhou's new armor.
Such an old fox is extremely difficult to deal with.
Even Cao Cao frowned very much. He was not good at fighting in Liaodong now, nor was he not good at fighting. If he fought, the current appearance of Gongsun Kang from Liaodong now was obedient to him. If such an obedient dog killed him, it would make other dogs feel disappointed, and even scared away some dogs who originally wanted to join him Cao Cao's army.
So Cao Cao was very annoyed! But if he didn't attack Liaodong, with the old fox Gongsun Du, I'm afraid that once Cao Cao left Nanpi, once the army relaxed in Nanpi, or the situation in the Central Plains changed, this gentle dog would immediately turn into a fierce wolf.
Cao Cao regretted taking the armor from Liaodong. If he had known this, he might as well fight directly, and the army of 300,000 can be pushed horizontally.
"Lord, but good news came from He Ping!" Cheng Yu continued to say, "Then Gongsun Du may not be able to appear!"
"Can't appear?" Cao Cao was a little confused?
"The person who is now in the Liaodong General's mansion is Gongsun Kang!"
"Yeah?" Cao Cao became even more confused.
"Prince He Ping wrote to say that Gongsun Du is probably dead at Gongsun Kang's hands!" Cheng Yu said to Cao Cao.
"What!" Cao Cao widened his eyes and said, "You're serious?"
"Prince He Ping only learned from the mouth of a former guard leader in Gongsundu, Liaodong!" The captain of the guard in Cheng Yu's mouth was our Wei Kang Tongshao. He almost died at Gongsun Kang's hands. He didn't want to live such a life, and complained about Gongsun Kang. In addition, He Ping's brushing over there immediately went around and visited Gongsun Kang's home many times. This news was revealed from this.
"Gongsun Du's personal guard?" Cao Cao stood up and walked around. Cao Cao was suspicious. He was beaten to death when he didn't believe it. Now he showed it because the news was learned from the personal guard around Gongsun Du.
Although this is a convenience that can deepen the credibility of the news, on the other hand, it is a plan by Gongsun Du? That is an old fox. This is not counting. This person is still Gongsun Du's personal guard. This is a confidant. Is this confidant so easy to instigate him?
Cheng Yu looked at Cao Cao, and he also knew that this was his lord's suspicion. "Lord, this Wei Kang almost died at the hands of that Gongsun Kang, so He Ping's prefect has contact with him!"
"Die at Gongsun Kang's hands?" Cao Cao didn't know the details, so Cheng Yu immediately told Cao Cao about Wei Kang and Gongsun Kang.
"Gongsun Kang wants to kill Wei Kang?" Cao Cao was a little convinced. If he was in terms of life safety, he might really betray him. But Cao Cao still couldn't make up his mind. If Gongsun Du died, then Cao Cao could have let Gongsun Kang take Gongsun Kang away from Liaodong directly. His Cao Cao's army was stationed in Liaodong. If Gongsun Du was not dead, then this was a trap. Once Cao Cao's army was stationed in or Cao Cao sent Gongsun Kang a letter, exposing Cao Cao's ugly appearance, it would really become a joke.
"My lord, let Prefect He Ping find out more!" Cheng Yu knew that Cao Cao was still unsure, and Cheng Yu began to think of Guo Jia now. When Guo Jia was there, Cheng Yu was envious and jealous because Guo Jia was younger than him, but his talent was higher than Cheng Yu, so Cheng Yu was a little dissatisfied. But now it seems that Guo Jia is better, because in this way, Guo Jia can win the lord's unsure idea.
"Yeah!" Cao Cao still agreed with this idea. "China and Germany, how much you need to worry about the things in Nanpi City!" Yuan Shao buried a lot of money under Nanpi, at least in millions.
"Yes!" Cheng Yu nodded." Lord, what about the soldiers and horses in Yangzhou? "He Ping's letter also included the Yangzhou army's dispatch of troops to Liaodong.
"The King of Shu in Yangzhou sent troops not to attack Liaodong, but to attack Cao Cao, or even to show the world!" Cao Cao also knew that Liaodong had become Yangzhou's killing and warning of the monkeys, so Yangzhou would definitely do his best.
"Lord, the Liaodong side seems not very good!" Cheng Yu asked Cao Cao over there. The Yangzhou soldiers and horses were unstoppable in western Liaoning. The three famous generals in Liaodong, An Yixuan, Mo Ran and Tuoba Hai, all lost to Yangzhou soldiers one after another. Now the Liaodong side has begun to allocate troops on the border to resist the Yangzhou soldiers!
"Fight, good fight!" Cao Cao thought about it but laughed out loud.
"Huh?" Cheng Yu was a little stunned. How could he say that Liaodong is now one of his allies?
"China and Germany, what would happen if the Liaodong troops defeated the Yangzhou army?" Cao Cao looked at his advisers with a smile.
"Did Liaodong soldiers win?" Cheng Yu called out. If Liaodong soldiers win, then Yangzhou's plan to take action failed. In this way, some other fence-bearers might really turn to him. In this way, Yangzhou will lose face and Cao Cao will get benefits. This is one of them. If His Highness of the King of Shu in Yangzhou is angry and insists on fighting, it is also a good thing to consume Liaodong with Yangzhou. This is called killing people with a knife!
"But lord, what if the Gongsun Kang of Liaodong could not bear it anymore!" If Gongsun Du from Liaodong was really killed by Liu Mang as the chicken, the fun would be great, and Liu Mang, the King of Shu in Yangzhou, became famous, and those fencemen might be shaking again.
"If you can't stand it, that's better!" Cao Cao was worried about not having an excuse to send troops to Liaodong. If Liaodong could not hold on, would they stay and wait for death? It must not be so, then naturally, they should ask for help like him. After all, it would be better to be a dog in Cao Cao than to be chopped up by Liu Mang, the king of Shu in Yangzhou. In this way, Cao Cao would have the excuse to send troops to Liaodong to station openly.
It's easy to send a gift to the gods in person.
