Three Kingdoms: Who can’t help? I am Adokuang Fuhan Room

"quick! Turn around and return to Wancheng!"

Sima Yi saw that Cao Cao fell ill and planned to turn around and go back quickly, letting Cao Cao recuperate in Wancheng to avoid further bumps on the road.

"No..."Cao Cao held his breath and said:"We must not return to Wancheng."..."

"King Wei, your body..."Cheng Yu also advised:"We need to recuperate quickly, we can’t continue on the road."

"No. Cao Cao said with difficulty:"Xiangfan was defeated and his morale plummeted. If news of Gu's critical illness spreads again, people on the front line will inevitably be panicked."

"If you go back at this time, you will destroy the morale of the army and you cannot return to Wancheng."

"That...How about going to Xudu? Xudu was relatively close, and the emperor also had an imperial physician who could diagnose and treat the king of Wei."Sima Yi quickly suggested

"inappropriate..."Cao Cao shook his head again,"If the emperor and the elders of the Han Dynasty see Gu falling ill, I'm afraid they will be ready to make trouble again.""

"Don't let them know the reality of Gu..."Cao Cao was extremely calm,"As long as they don't know Gu's physical condition, no one will dare to cause trouble.""

"Go to Luoyang!"Cao Cao said solemnly:"I am traveling to Luoyang to recuperate there...."

Luoyang, the center of the world.

Cao Cao is sitting in Luoyang, which can not only calm the hearts of the people on the western front, but also provide support to Nanyang County, and at the same time put pressure on Xu Du

"There is no holiday in the year...Maybe..."Cao Cao already had a premonition.

There was no sign of the illness this time. It was not caused by a head wind. Cao Cao felt that the symptoms were caused by his body being extremely weak.

At this moment, Cao Cao felt very, very tired

"King Wei, please don't do this. You have not yet completed your great cause of unifying the world. Everything will be fine."Sima Yi quickly comforted

"Ha~" Cao Cao narrowed his eyes,"Unify the world? After the defeat of Chibi, it became impossible..."

"Liu Bei is a common man, Xiaogu is five years old, and it seems that he can't stand him."Cao Cao gasped,"Just try to hold on for a while."...At least get through this year!"

The arrogant hero is praying to God in his heart at this moment to give him some more time....

The news of Cao Cao's illness was completely blocked without leakage, and the team headed north to Luoyang to rest.

Xiangyang

"The general will pay homage to His Highness the Crown Prince"

"General Wei Yan, without courtesy, please take a seat."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Wei Yan was curious. He didn't know why Liu Chan wanted to see him today. After sitting down, he asked directly:"Your Highness, do you have something to tell the general?"

21"The main reason I called General here today was to ask Wen Chang to apologize. Liu Chan said, stood up and bowed slightly.

"I dare not."Wei Yan stood up in panic and hurriedly avoided

"The general can afford it."Liu Chan apologized:"Because of my fault, the general failed to take charge twice. I feel guilty. I hope the general will forgive me. After saying that

, Liu Chan took the initiative to propose a toast, without giving Wei Yan a chance to decline, and said,"General, if you don't mind, please drink this cup to the full.""

Wei Yan couldn't refuse, so he could only pick up the wine glass and drink it in one gulp.

"Your Highness, I have absolutely no thoughts in my heart..."

"Don't talk about this."Liu Chan interrupted with a smile,"I've drank the apology wine. I've written off all the previous things. I'll call the general here today. We still have important matters to discuss."

"Please give your orders, Your Highness."Wei Yan solemnly said

"It's a good thing that the general doesn't have to be like this. Liu Chan continued:"Zhenhou died for his country, and the position of Nanjun's governor is vacant. I want a general to take the position. What do you think?""

Mi Fang, the governor of Nanjun, died, and this two-thousand-stone key position became vacant.

Especially after Liu Chan recommended Ma Chao and asked him to temporarily take charge of Jingzhou's military affairs, the governor of Nanjun became even more important.

After all, Liu Bei agreed to make Ma Chao the governor of Jingzhou. In fact, Liu Chan still has some grudges in his heart.

If you want to get rid of Liu Bei's heart problems, you must remain an absolutely reliable person to preside over government affairs and at the same time play a role in checking and balancing Ma Chao.

Wei Yan is undoubtedly an absolute A good candidate.

From the fact that Liu Bei tried to let him sit on one side twice, it is not difficult to see that Liu Bei admires and trusts Wei Yan very much.

The governor of Jingzhou and the prefect of Nanjun cooperate with each other and restrict each other.

As long as they don’t give fake Jie Yue Outrageous power, neither side can do anything about the other.

After all, Ma Chao is not Guan Yu, and Liu Bei cannot grant him the power of a false sword.

Wei Yan was surprised after hearing this. Although he transferred to a civil service, he finally reached the level of two thousand stones.

With that After this layer of resume, it will be more logical to take charge of one side in the future.

Moreover, Ma Chao, the governor of Jingzhou, still has the word temporary on his title, which means that Ma Chao will not stay in Jingzhou for too long and will leave his post sooner or later.

In the future, after Ma Chao leaves office, will Wei Yan, the second in command, be able to take advantage of the situation and take over?

"I thank Your Highness for your cultivation!"Wei Yan bowed his head and bowed.

After Liu Bei's enlightenment and Liu Chan's personal apology, he was appointed to the position.

At this time, Wei Yan no longer had any dissatisfaction with Liu Chan in his heart, but became sincerely convinced.

"Wen Chang has served the country for many years and made many military exploits. You deserve this position."Liu Chan continued:"In addition, there is another important reason for letting Wen Chang serve as the prefect of Nanjun."

"Please give me your instructions"

"Training!"Liu Chan said in a deep voice:"The 40,000 civilians and 20,000 Cao Jun prisoners that I brought here before, Chief Wen wants to train them into a large army."

Why use a warrior as a local official? That's the reason.

It's good to have a civil servant, but he doesn't know how to train soldiers at all, but Wei Yan is fine

"Mr. Longzhong’s strategy back then has now been fully achieved. Liu Chan continued:"The Sun and Liu families have made a good alliance again, and the Northern Expedition is not far away.""

"Wen Chang has a heavy responsibility and must train a strong and elite army!"

The current strength of Liu Bei's troops is still too small compared to that of Wei State, only 120,000 to 30,000.

These troops have to be divided into two groups for the Northern Expedition, and at the same time some troops must be left to defend Jiangdong, which seems a bit stretched and insufficient.

Therefore, right now The most important task is to expand the army! Expand the army! Expand the army!

Enough troops are the greatest confidence for the Northern Expedition

"I understand that I will never let His Highness or the King down!"Wei Yansurong said

"Well, my father Wang Wenchang and I are very relieved."

After making some casual remarks to bring the relationship closer between the two parties, Liu Chan personally saw Wei Yan off.

When he left, the smile on Wei Yan's face never stopped.

"Huang Hao, go to the side hall and ask General Pound to come over."

Liu Chan not only had an appointment with Wei Yan today, but Pang De was closer and could let him wait for a while.

Not long after, Huang Hao came with Pang De.

"Finally, I will pay my respects to His Highness."

"No gifts, no gifts. Liu Chan waved his hand casually and pulled Pang De into the room,"I have a good job for Ling Ming.""

After a series of events in Jingzhou, Pang De is now definitely a close and direct descendant of His Royal Highness.

After all, if Pang De had any wrong thoughts at the time, Liu Chan, Jingzhou, and Guan Yu would all be doomed.

The relationship between the two is After experiencing the test of life and death, how could Liu Chan distrust Pound?

"Your Highness, what's the good job? Pang De asked eagerly.

Now that he has surrendered to the Han Dynasty, Liu Chan has solved the family problems, and Pang De wants to be reused.

"General Guiyi, governor of public security."Liu Chan didn't give in.

First of all, he sealed the rank of general. This level is not low, second only to the generals of the four directions.

With the rank, the real power is also indispensable. Liu Chan will not treat Pound badly and directly let him take Fu Shiren's position.

This position is very important. The police station is located between Jingzhou and Yizhou, guarding the communication channels between the two places.

"Not surprisingly, Ling Ming, as the police commander, can command five thousand troops."Liu Chan then explained:"It's not that he doesn't trust Ling Ming, it's mainly that Jingzhou really lacks troops."

"Your Highness does not need to explain, the general is already satisfied."Pound quickly expressed his position.

The five thousand army may not seem like much, but in fact it is already a lot. The important power of these five thousand troops lies in Pound's hands.

Ordinary miscellaneous generals can only command troops during battles, and they have no troops at all on weekdays..

The remaining 20,000 troops are naturally in the hands of Ma Chao, stationed in Xiangyang to defend Cao Jun.

On the other hand, Jiangdong does not need to be on guard in the short term.

On the one hand, the two families are naturally getting married again, and on the other hand, Jiangdong has just lost 30,000 troops and Lu Meng. Jiangdong is absolutely powerless. No intention of attacking Jingzhou

"Your Highness, your Majesty has sent someone over, it’s time for us to set off."Huang Hao came in to report

"knew. Liu Chan stood up and said,"Let Ming go back to Uncle Meng Qi to lead the troops, and then go directly to the police to take up his post. I will return to Nanzheng soon.""

"Finally, I wish His Highness a safe journey."

"He's gone, please take care of yourself."(To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Liu Bei, Liu Chan and their party set out from Xiangyang and went upstream along the Han River.

After Xiangyang was captured, Hanzhong, Dongsan County, and Xiangfan were completely connected to the city. , the connection between the two places was greatly strengthened.

The five thousand troops brought from Hanzhong stayed, and only two thousand white soldiers were escorted on the return journey.

However, they were on Liu Bei's territory the whole way, so there was no need to worry about encountering danger.

There was no words all the way, and everyone returned smoothly. Nanzheng.

After the squadron returned to the court, Liu Bei immediately held a court meeting.

First, he rewarded the meritorious officials in the Battle of Xiangfan, and then began to discuss important matters.

The Northern Expedition!

Although there are currently insufficient troops and insufficient food and grass, it seems that it is too early to say that the Northern Expedition is too early.

But this is not the case. If the Northern Expedition plan is formulated as early as possible, the court will be able to work hard towards the goal in the future, and it can also mobilize the enthusiasm of officials.

"My dear friends, Hanzhong is captured, Xiangfan is obtained, and the next step is the Northern Expedition."Liu Bei sat on the throne, looked around at the ministers and said:"Today we, the emperor and the ministers, will discuss the next goal."

As the words fell, everyone looked at one person in unison.

Military strategist Zhuge Liang.

The architect of Liu Bei Group's strategic blueprint. On the first day he took office, he proposed the strategy of dividing the world into three parts, spanning Jing and Yi, and forming an alliance with Jiangdong.

Now with Hanzhong, Xiangfan successively took over and reconciled with Jiangdong again. Zhuge Liang's Longzhong strategy has been completed[]

Now, the next phase of strategic objectives is needed.

Zhuge Liang did his job, stood up immediately, and ordered someone to take out a map, which was obviously well prepared.

When the news of Xiangfan's victory came, the Han military advisor had already begun to plan the next step.

"Let's take a look, everyone..."

"Wait."Liu Bei suddenly interrupted, attracting everyone's attention.

Then Liu Bei stood up from the throne and ordered the guards:"Make room here and let the military advisor come up to explain."

After a while, the throne and the jade case were all moved away. Liu Bei personally pulled Zhuge Liang to the top of the jade steps, and then stood down below, with his hands tied, pretending to be listening attentively. Seeing this, the ministers dared not continue sitting. They all got up from their positions and gathered around under the jade steps.

On the jade steps, Zhuge Liang took a deep breath, adjusted his mind, and began to describe the plan in a calm tone.

"The big man’s next plan lies here."

Zhuge Liang held a goose feather fan and pointed to the northwest of the map, where Liangzhou is located.

"Shouldn't we take Guanzhong first, then secure the Three Qin Dynasties and regain the old capital?"Fa Zheng immediately put forward different opinions.

"No."Zhuge Liang didn't hesitate, he just shook his head and denied it.

"I also hope Kong Ming can teach me."Fazheng also did not give in.

To put it bluntly, the two are competing for the line of governance.

If they act according to the plan formulated by Zhuge Liang, then Zhuge Liang will definitely remain the civil servant brother in the future.

On the contrary, if Fazheng can refute Zhuge Liang, he will use Fazheng in the future headed by

"Kong Ming. Liu Bei said:"Gu Ye is a little confused. Please explain.""

It's not that Liu Bei is partial to Fazheng, but he really didn't understand.

Most people present, including most of the people present, thought that Guanzhong should be taken first.

After all, when Liu Bang fought out of Hanzhong in the past, he wanted to take Guanzhong first. This is ready-made Example.

Another point is that Chang'an is the old capital of the Han Dynasty, and its capture will be of great significance.

Finally, the population and cultivated land in Guanzhong will definitely be better than that of Liangzhou, a poor and remote area.

"One. Zhuge Liang said solemnly:"There are horses in Liangzhou.""

As soon as this statement came out, everyone showed a look of surprise.

Zhuge Liang continued:"If you want to compete with Wei in the Central Plains in the future, it will be impossible without cavalry. If you win Liangzhou, you will have horse sources and horse farms."

"The Han Dynasty has cavalry, and in the future they will be able to gallop in the Central Plains and compete with the tiger and leopard cavalry of Wei!"

Liu Bei has hundreds of thousands of troops under his command, but currently does not have any cavalry troops.

To put it bluntly, Liu Bei does not have a horse farm at all and is unable to form one.

In the future, it will be difficult for Liu Bei to compete in the Central Plains without cavalry. Even after Wei uses cavalry, Liu Bei will It is difficult to move even an inch and is controlled by others.

400"Kong Ming is right, the war horse is indeed very crucial."Liu Bei nodded and said:"The reason why Dong Zhuo was able to dominate the world in the past was because of the Xiliang cavalry in his hands."

"Kong Ming, please continue."Liu Bei raised his hand to indicate

"Second. Zhuge Liang said with a smile,"We have Ma Chao.""

Everyone was stunned for a moment when they heard this, and then laughed.

But they had to admit that what Zhuge Liang said was indeed true.

Liangzhou has horses, and Liu Bei has Ma Chao. With these two points alone, Liangzhou's priority will increase infinitely.

The reason is very simple. Jin Ma Chao's reputation in Xiliang is very great, big enough to influence the situation.

Regardless of the Qiang, Di or Han people in Xiliang, they all respect Ma Chao.

Especially after Ma Teng and Han Sui passed away one after another. After that, the most famous people in Xiliang must recommend Ma Chao first.

In short, Liu Bei owning Ma Chao is equivalent to having a mass base in Xiliang

"Third. Zhuge Liang continued:"By crossing the two states of Liang and Yi, we can form a pincer force on Guanzhong, and it will be easier to capture Hanzhong by then.""

Everyone looked at Zhuge Liang pointing on the map. After Yizhou and Liangzhou were connected, they were like a pair of pliers, attacking the Guanzhong area.

"Dear friends, do you still have any questions after listening?"Liu Bei asked to the left and right

"Xiao Nao, please speak. Li Yan lowered his voice and poked at Fazheng,"Go up and fight with Zhuge Liang.""

"Earn a lot of money! Fazheng scolded:"Kong Ming is right.""

"You can’t nod your head, otherwise, how can we defeat the Jingzhou people?"Li Yan couldn't help but worry.

"Why are you panicking? The more powerful the Jingzhou faction becomes, the more your Majesty will rely on us. Fazheng said calmly:"If you oppose for the sake of opposition, you will be disgusted by your Majesty.""

"Remember, everything must be compromised for the Northern Expedition."Fazheng warned:"Whoever dares to ruin the Northern Expedition because of internal fighting will be the first to be spared by your Majesty."

Li Yan's political consciousness is obviously not as good as Fa Zheng's. Fa Zheng first puts the overall situation first, and then grabs the right to speak.

Li Yan is much inferior. In history, one of Zhuge Liang's Northern Expeditions was deliberately sabotaged by Li Yan, ruining the good situation.

"You are so anxious."Li Yan can't understand Fazheng's mentality.

"Zhengfang, it’s better to listen to Xiaozhi. Wu Yi tried to smooth things over and said,"You see, the king obviously likes Kong Ming's strategy. It's useless for us to oppose it now.""

"Of course, if Zhengfang has a better strategy than Kong Ming, he might as well put it forward at this time."Wu Yi made a suggestion.

Li Yan suddenly stopped and was speechless. He had a hammer strategy. He just wanted to oppose it and had no better strategy in mind.

Wu Yi told Li Yan to shut up with one sentence. Liu Bei waited for a moment. Seeing that no one spoke up to object, he immediately said:"In that case, let's implement the plan formulated by the military advisor."

The coffin is finalized.

For a long time to come, the court will plan future work plans based on the strategy set by Zhuge Liang.

Everyone in the Jingzhou faction is smiling, which will mean that Zhuge Liang is still the first brother of civil servants.

"The mid-autumn harvest in Shu should be over, corvees should be collected, and grain should be transported to Hanzhong to prepare for the Northern Expedition in the future."Liu Bei spoke again and planned to end the discussion.

"Father, my sons and ministers have sent me a memorial."
