Three Kingdoms: Ancestors of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 805 Three Relocations
Destiny seems to be a mysterious thing. The great Han is getting stronger and stronger, and the events that happen in it are beneficial to the Han;The same is true inside Cao Wei, and it is not peaceful.

After Sima Yi returned from Bingzhou, he seriously reported to Cao Shuang that there was a risk of the Southern Huns becoming bigger in Bingzhou. He said that Wei would no longer be like Chen Tai who had died in the battle, adopting a policy of appeasement to pamper the Southern Huns, but he also could not take Strong means to force it back.Therefore, it is necessary to appoint a new captain to protect the Xiongnu, and the governor of Bingzhou to take charge of the military of Bingzhou, and to deter the Southern Huns by means of both hardness and softness.

Cao Shuang also knew the importance of Bingzhou, and adopted the opinions of his ministers. After Chen Tai was named after Chen Tai, who died in the battle, he moved Tian Yu, the governor of Yuzhou, to serve as Chijie, protect the general of the Xiongnu Zhonglang, add officials to recruit the general of the North, and lead the governor of Bingzhou. Supervise and state military.

The reason why Cao Shuang appointed Tian Yu as the governor of Bingzhou has a lot to do with his early years of office experience.Tian Yu followed Cao Zhang to defeat Wuhuan and defeated Ke Bineng.Later, he served as the Captain of Hu Karasuma, together with Qianzhao and Xie Jun, as the Captain of Protecting Xianbei, and managed the affairs of northern Xinjiang. His name was to deter the Hu people.

That's why Cao Shuang appointed Tian Yu as the governor of Bingzhou because he valued his reputation in northern Xinjiang and his outstanding military and political talents, thinking that he could resist the big man.

After receiving the edict, Tian Yu had to drag his old body from Yuzhou to Bingzhou. He used his reputation of guarding northern Xinjiang to deter the Southern Huns and appease the Xianbei people outside the Great Wall, and incorporated them into the army. , Increase Cao Wei's defensive strength in Bingzhou.

The Bingzhou affairs were resolved, but it was only Cao Shuang's remedy.Under his rule, Jingzhou was defeated and Hedong was lost. The center of Yecheng was difficult to stabilize, and people's hearts were fluctuating. They were not discussing whether Wei would die in private, or discussing Cao Shuang's crimes.

And how could Cao Shuang not know the current public opinion in the government and the public, and often worry about it.In Yuanhong's attack on Hongnong, defeating Xiahouba's troops, crossing the Yellow River, and harassing Hanoi, the public opinion of the ruling and opposition parties was ignited.Cao Shuang didn't dare to delay, so he immediately summoned his confidants to discuss to see if there was a plan to calm the current situation or counter the Shu Han.

Cao Shuang's face was serious, and he asked: "Since the western thieves moved their capital to Chang'an, taking advantage of our country's defeat, they took advantage of our army's defeat to send troops eastward, harassing Hongnong, Shangdang and other places, approaching Yecheng, and people's hearts are in turmoil. That's why the current situation, What do you think should be done?"

The defeat of Fenyuan had a great impact on Cao Wei. Not only did he lose Hedong, but he also killed all the men in Bingzhou, which caused a shock among the people.

Cao Shuang had no choice but to issue an edict of guilt for Cao Fang, to appease the people of Bingzhou, reduce the taxes paid by Bingzhou, and provide compensation for the families who died in the war.At the same time, in order to strengthen the deployment of Cao Wei's troops in Bingzhou, soldiers were dispatched from Hebei and Youzhou areas to go west to Bingzhou.

After a pause, Cao Shuang asked, "Maybe we can send troops to attack the thieves?"

Da Sinong Huanfan hesitated a little, and said: "General, in the battle of Jingzhou, the savings accumulated for several years in Henan of our country were all gone. The soldiers had no equipment, armor, and no supplies of food and grass to supply. It may be difficult to send troops; as for Hebei, because of the defeat of Fen Originally, the soldiers were seriously injured, and they lost the east of the river, and there was no equipment or armor. Considering the current situation, our country should stick to its defense and not act rashly. If the Chinese army is wiped out, our country will be in danger!"

Fighting a war requires not only soldiers, but also materials and armor.After Cao Shuang's prodigal family, even if Cao Wei had the world's rich Henan and Hebei, it would be difficult to maintain military supplies for the army to fight in the short term.If you want to force troops, only the Chinese army can be used, but once the Chinese army is defeated, Cao Wei will not be far from destroying the country.

Cao Shuang's expression was slightly displeased, and he asked, "If the Western Thieves cannot be countered, Ye City may be in trouble!"

Deng Yang pondered for a while, and said: "General, the imperial court is located in Yecheng, adjacent to bandit soldiers, and there may be disasters. We might as well move the capital to Linzi, in order to stabilize the center and avoid disasters."

Cao Shuang's face was quite moved, but due to his status, he didn't speak yet.

"What?" Sikong Gaorou stood up abruptly when he heard the words, and objected, "General, you should think twice about moving the capital. It's not as simple as what Deng Yang said. Mencius said: "Born in sorrow, die in peace. "In this life, because the capital of the country is adjacent to the national border, I moved to Linzi in order to seek peace and happiness for a while. If you want to be happy, you should die."

Deng Yang retorted: "Gaojun's words are also biased. If a gentleman does not live under a dangerous wall, how can the country live in a dangerous place. If the bandits enter the Shangdang eastward and the soldiers attack the capital, our Great Wei will not be in danger." It’s better to move to Linzi, to avoid its edge, and use the power of our great Wei country to resist the Shu rebels, save ten years, and restore the national power.”

Gao Rou shook her head again and again, and said: "Based on our country's situation, we may be able to resist the Western thieves if we are in a crisis; if we move to Linzi, we may not be able to resist the Western thieves... and Linzi is located in the east, so it is difficult to cope with the wars in Hebei and Henan. "

The first half of Gao Rou's sentence is very cryptic, alluding to the current national conditions of Cao Wei.At present, Cao Wei is tossing and tossing repeatedly under Cao Shuang's governance. If there is no Shu Han outside, it is estimated that there will be a lot of tossing.Moved the capital to Linzi, far away from the border, and did not know what would happen.

"It's just a matter of pros and cons, according to Yan's opinion. Linzi has Wushan Mountain on its back, and Zihe River on its east. Shangdang, and the center is stable, it is not easy to be happy!" He Yan said.

Sima Yi, who was silent for a while, said slowly, "General, do you know if Surabaya does not flow?"

Cao Shuang was stunned. How did he know why Surabaya didn't flow? He's not from Xuzhou.

Sima Yi saw that these juniors didn't know what their grandfather Cao Cao was doing, so he had to say in a dark way: "Emperor Wu's soldiers entered Xuzhou, and Surabaya stopped flowing. Chickens and dogs were all gone, and there were no pedestrians in the ruins. Excessive killings may have hurt Xuzhou's scholars and people. Heart. Jizhou and Yanzhou are the lands of our Great Wei Longxing, and based on this, we can check and balance the Central Plains."

Sima Yi was quite speechless to Cao Shuang. The separatist forces in Qingzhou were not resolved until Cao Pi came to power.As for the million Qingzhou yellow scarves captured by Cao Cao, they were not placed in Qingzhou, but in Yanzhou.

Part of the reason why Cao Cao slaughtered the city of Xuzhou was that Cao Cao captured millions of Yellow Turbans, all of whom needed food.At that time, Cao Cao had only three choices, either to borrow food from Yuan Shao, or to keep what he could afford to feed, or to plunder from others to support these millions of yellow scarves.

In the end, Cao Cao made a third choice, recruiting the Yellow Turban Army, and then continued to take them to rob and eat.Attacked Xuzhou to the east, slaughtered hundreds of thousands of people in Xuzhou, and plundered its food and grass.That is to say, the old Cao's family has a life-saving grace for those millions of yellow scarves, and an unshakable hatred for the people of Xuzhou.

Cao Shuang blushed slightly. To be honest, he did have the idea of ​​moving the capital, otherwise he would have been replaced by Deng Yang and others. After all, Yecheng was close to the front line, and the people in the center were panicked. Without a sense of security, he can also better grasp the government.

Cao Shuang coughed lightly, and said, "The proposal to move the capital will be postponed. Now the banditry is rampant, and there is still a need for checks and balances. I don't know how to deal with it?"

"General, send additional troops to Hanoi, Shangdang, and Luoyi, repair the city walls, and stockpile food and grass. Move the people on the border to the inland states and counties, and put defense first. Non-elite soldiers will not fight bandit soldiers." Huan Fan suggested.

"It can be taken from the words of Da Si Nong!"

After the crowd dispersed, Sima Yi, Gao Rou, Jiang Ji and others slowly left the hall.

Gao Rou sighed, and said: "Teacher, the general moved his capital to Linzi for refuge. If the capital of the country moves three times in the next ten years, the whole country's officials will be panic-stricken, and the foundation of our Great Wei Dynasty will be in chaos! We still need to use the city of Ye For the capital, to protect the stability of the court.”

When Cao Shuang and others moved their capital to Linzi, they only considered the stability of the central government, but did not see local officials.Seeing the central government frequently change the capital will only deepen their anxiety.

Sima Yi patted Gao Rou on the shoulder, and said meaningfully: "Be patient for now, I will try my best later."
