Shu Han of the Three Kingdoms I call the shots

Chapter 591 The Theory of Moving the Capital

That's right, Xiangyang was lost in one day. Yu Jin is a famous general in the world, he has outstanding abilities, but this time not only lost Xiangyang, but also lost his life in Xiangyang.

If Xu Huang lost Jiangling, it was justifiable because he lost it on the tunnel, but Xiangyang.

This is really puzzling.

Everyone's eyes couldn't help but focus on Man Chong.As the only survivor of the Xiangyang War, Man Chong is the only person who can let them know the secrets of this war.

Thinking of Yu Jin who had been killed in Xiangyang City, Man Chong's eyes couldn't help turning red. Although he spent a short time with Yu Jin, this famous Central Plains general had a huge influence on him.

Man Chong consciously learned a lot from Yu Jin, but now, this famous Central Plains general has died in Xiangyang.

"According to the plan, the garrison in Xiangyang was under the command of General Yu Jin, General Gao Lan, and General Xu Huang. However, Kou Feng broke through Jiangling within a day, which made General Xu Huang feel angry. There were [-] to [-] troops missing. However, General Zhou Yu joined in halfway, which can be regarded as making up for it. Therefore, General Yu Jin ordered Zhou Yu to be heightened and reinforced while ordering Zhou Yu, Gao Lan to train soldiers diligently and raise their morale. Wait for Kou Feng to attack. But. " said At this point, Man Chong's face involuntarily showed shock, and he looked around at the civil servants, saying:

"But Kou Feng has well carts, which are twenty feet high. A total of forty of them are put together, which is almost like a city wall. Shoot Xiangyang defenders from top to bottom. Kou Feng has catapult carts, which have a range of 200 meters. A total of more than a thousand vehicles were put together, flying stones covered the sky and the sun, and the guards were frightened. Kou Feng had a knife, which was narrow in shape, light in weight, and fast in speed. A small part of the army was equipped, and this part of the army, The fighting power is astonishing."

"General Yu Jin defended the city first, but seeing the power of the well cart and the trebuchet, he was forced to abandon half of the city wall and fought against the Kou Feng army on the city, but was defeated by the Chu knife. In the end, he hated Xiangyang." In Man Chong's eyes, Can't help but reveal the color of sadness.

The people around were also silent.

From Man Chong's words, they learned the direction of Kou Feng's army and the reason why Xiangyang City was destroyed in one day.It's not that Kou Feng's troops are strong enough to break through Xiangyang in one day.

It's not that Kou Feng's unparalleled ingenuity is enough to turn things around.

But Kou Feng has many means, and the siege equipment is too good.

There is a well cart twenty feet high.There are more than a thousand catapults.There is an extremely sharp Chu knife.All together, how much gold and silver would it cost?

Especially well carts and catapults.That is expensive, but also bulky.In the Central Plains, only one cavalry can destroy these things.

Almost a one-time surname thing.But Kou Feng still got it out.He just used his huge financial advantage to buy Xiangyang City.

By the way, he also bought Cao Cao's [-] troops, a famous general Jin, and a fierce general Gao Lan.Zhou Yu, the last pillar of Jiangdong.

Winning is easy and comfortable, but winning is unconvincing.But I have to obey.Jingchu's ferocity and wealth are really the best in the world, which is hard to match.

After Man Chong finished speaking, everyone in the hall was silent for a long time.

Until Cao Cao said: "This is the real Chu knife, you can take a look." As he said that, Cao Cao glanced at the attendant next to him, and the attendant immediately understood, hugged several Chu swords, and gave them to each other. The crowd watched.

Yu Jin fought against Kou Feng, and naturally captured a lot of Chu knives.Man Chong brought back more than a dozen of them, half of which were handed over to craftsmen by Cao Cao for development.

There are also some Chu swords in the hands of the attendants.

From the beginning, Cao Cao was very silent, with a sad look in his eyes.In the battle of Chibi, although he was defeated, the general lost one member, and all the advisers were there.

The so-called thousand soldiers are easy to get, but one general is hard to find.So Cao Cao is not sad.

But Kou Feng's Northern Expedition cost him too many generals, and Xu Huang was captured.Among the five sons, Xu Huang is the most honest and loyal. Cao Cao knows that Xu Huang is a veteran of the Cao family and an indispensable figure for stabilizing the Cao family's rule.

Now he is captured.

The head of the five sons, who can conquer those who are good at fighting.Yu Jin can be described as a good general. He is the most stable and victorious general under Cao Cao's account, and he is also the most strict military commander.

He is also a veteran of the Cao family.But died in Xiangyang.

The most important thing is Cao Ren.Cao Ren is not only Cao Cao's younger brother, but also considered by Cao Cao to be the most important part of continuing Cao's rule after his death.

Able to command troops to fight, and able to win battles, as a victorious general.Among the Cao family, Cao Ren is the only one.Although he was captured by Kou Feng, Cao Cao never gave up his desire to redeem Cao Ren. In the battle at Chibi, he would rather fall into Kou Feng's trap than give up on Cao Ren.

But he also died in Xiangyang.

Three generals were lost in the first battle.Even if the heart is as hard as Cao Cao, I feel that it is unbearable.

Cao Cao was secretly sad.But in the hall, everyone picked up Chu Dao one after another, and their expressions were also very heavy.

Light, sharp, capable of cutting people and piercing armor.Most importantly, it's sturdy.This Kou Feng has a Chu knife, which is tantamount to adding wings to a tiger.Difficult to deal with.

"This thing must be rushed to." Xun Yu was the most sensitive, raising his fist at Cao Cao.

"Let's develop it first. However, even if it is developed, there will be no large-scale equipment within a period of time. That fake black knife consumes too many resources." Cao Cao nodded when he heard the words, but sighed. .

black knife.It was developed with that fake Chu knife, which almost made Cao Cao hollow out the treasury.In the end, they were all abolished, which was another pain in Cao Cao's heart.

"Now is not the time to discuss this. The most urgent thing is to think about how to deal with Kou Feng." Cao Cao paused and said again.

There was hesitation in his eyes.

Everyone here is an old courtier, and they can understand some of Cao Cao's expressions.As soon as they saw Cao Cao's expression, everyone knew that Cao Cao already had countermeasures in his mind, but there were two, or even three countermeasures, which caused hesitation and difficulty in making a decision.

"Please make a public announcement." Everyone looked at each other for a while, and finally Xun Yu, the most experienced countryman, raised his fist and asked.

"I just want to move the capital." Cao Cao exhaled and said.

It can be said that one stone stirs up a thousand waves.The people in the hall are all very stable people, even Cheng Yu, who is a little anxious, can still face the collapse of the mountain without changing his face.

But Cao Cao's words were too lethal.

Moving the capital is actually moving the capital.

Although Kou Feng's momentum is like a rainbow, his vigor is dazzling.Although Kou Feng's army is strong, it is much more than Cao Cao's current army in Xudu.

Although Kou Feng broke Xiangyang, the people in the Central Plains were unstable.

Although, although Kou Feng came, he brought all kinds of unfavorable factors, but the capital cannot be moved.

"Ming Gong can't. Although Kou Feng is strong now, I still have [-] horse infantry in Xudu, including tens of thousands of tiger and leopard cavalry, and ordinary cavalry. If Kou Feng's catapults and well carts come, they must Let them come and go, so there is nothing to be afraid of. How can they move the capital before fighting?" Cheng Yu persuaded loudly, his expression extremely excited.

How did Cao Cao calm down the world?It is Xu County, the capital.If the capital is moved away, doesn't that mean telling the world that the world is going to be chaotic again?

Definitely a huge hit in terms of prestige.

"What Zhongmou said is very true. Now Ma Teng, Han Sui and more than ten princes have invaded Chang'an and Tongguan. Gongsun Kang, Yuan Xi, Yuan Shang and other soldiers have invaded Youzhou. Although Cao Hong, Zhong Yao, Zhang Liao and others resisted, but that It is also because the prestige of the Central Plains is still there. The thieves dare not attack with all their strength. They even suspect each other. But if Duke Ming moves the capital, it will be tantamount to damaging his prestige, and all the heroes in the world will definitely attack with all their strength. It is really impossible." Xun Yu also With a flushed face, he said loudly.

"Moving the capital will cause a lot of losses but no benefits." Chen Qunjian said in shock.

Everyone objected in unison, which was expected by Cao Cao. This move of moving the capital to avoid the edge was too weak after all.

But Cao Cao can't help it. There are many noble families in the Central Plains, and people's hearts are changeable.Cao Cao has already felt it.In addition, the emperor Liu Xie grew up gradually, and his heart began to grow wild.With Dong Cheng's belt edict in front, Cao Cao didn't feel at ease leaving Liu Xie in Xudu to cause chaos.On the contrary, in Hebei, because of the battle between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, many people were slaughtered.The rest of the gentry also have their hearts towards Cao Cao, and they are very clean.

If the capital is moved to Hebei, it will not only be able to stand out from the edge.It can also play a role in stabilizing people's hearts.

It's all because Kou Feng's spirit is too strong, and he has an incomparable sense of sharpness.Cao Cao was a hero all his life, almost fearless.But the sharpness I felt this time was real.

It doesn't matter whether Kou Feng used money to pile up the myth of breaking Xiangyang in a day, regardless of whether Kou Feng is an extermination of thieves or not.What cannot be denied is that Xiangyang is broken.

Xu is safe from danger.

The current Cao Cao is not ready yet. Under Xudu City, he will compete with Kou Feng for supremacy.Although it is a home game, but now is the weakest time in the north.Regardless of the outcome, it will be a heavy blow.

"If Xudu fights, the lone soldiers will lose a lot. I am afraid that the world will really be in chaos." Cao Cao was silent for a long time, and sighed.

Prestige is important, Cao Cao knows.So to keep the capital, this is a symbol.But if there is no deterrence of military strength, the world will not rise up?

After the baptism of the troubled times, everyone in the world knows that whoever has the biggest fist can get the upper hand.

"Duke Ming, I would like to call the children of the clan to protect the capital together." Chen Qun came out and said with indescribable impassioned enthusiasm.

"We should call together the children of the clan to guard the capital." Everyone looked at each other and expressed their opinions in unison.

Although the world is chaotic, the household registration has been greatly reduced.However, the strength of the gentry has grown to a certain extent.People lost their land and became refugees.So the accounts are decreasing.

However, the gentry gathered the refugees and they were not included in the national household registration.So power is growing.Although, Cao Cao himself tried his best to combat such things.But this kind of thing is inevitable.Even these people in the hall, especially the Chen and Xun families in Yingchuan, are all nobles.

The forces under it are not small.If they sent the children of the clan to help guard the capital, they might be able to form thousands of troops.

But at this moment, it is not the time to discuss the power of these human races.What should be noted is the determination of these people to live and die with the Cao family and guard the capital.

Fight against Kou Feng.
