Killing system of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 72

Does Cao Pi really want to attack Zhang Yi?of course not.He had just been brought by Cao Cao's side, and he didn't know how to lead troops in battle at all, so how could he lead troops to fight?

So why did he say that?Of course, he wanted to leave a good impression on Cao Cao.Hu You was his. Regardless of whether Hu You was guilty or not, his father killed him, so he definitely didn't like Hu You.

He must disassociate himself from Hu You, so as not to make his father angry with him.That's why he was going to conquer Zhang Yi. The more beautiful the words, the better, and it would also make his father's anger disappear.

Sure enough, Cao Cao looked a lot better when he heard what he said, but he still reprimanded him: "Nonsense! That Zhang Yi can be regarded as a brave general, how can you, a person who doesn't understand military affairs, be able to deal with him?"

"Father, how can you increase the morale of others and destroy your prestige?" Cao Pi continued to pretend.

"Okay! Back off!" Cao Cao waved his hand and said.

Cao Pi then stood aside "unwillingly".

While the two father and son were talking, almost all the generals and counselors of Cao Ying arrived.Cao Cao asked Zhang Yi's melody to be read to everyone, and everyone had different expressions after hearing it.

There is resentment, there is doubt, there is reason...

Xiahou Dun had a bad temper, so he came out and said, "Zhang Yi is really bold, please allow me to lead the army to crusade, my lord."

When Xiahoudun said this, many generals immediately stood up to support him.They were all pissed off by Zhang Yi's performance, so they naturally wanted to send troops to teach Zhang Yi a lesson.

"Generals, calm down!" Counselor Guo Jia came out and said, "Now that Yuan Shao's army is overwhelming, our army wants to attack Zhang Yi, but we have no soldiers to send."

"Then watch him be arrogant?" Xiahou Dun asked.

"Of course not!" Guo Jia said: "Since Zhang Yi has sent troops to Lujiang County at this time, he must have had a plan in advance, and this matter should be considered in the long run."

Cao Cao asked with a sullen face, "What is Feng Xiao's plan?"

"Three tigers seize food!" Guo Jia said: "Zhang Yi's attack on Lujiang was aimed at Jiangdong! Sun Ce was newly mourned in Jiangdong, and his younger brother Sun Quan's foothold was not stable. However, the Sun family has a deep foundation in Jiangdong, which cannot be compared with Zhang Yi. Driving If the two fight each other, the southeast will be safe!"

Cao Pi was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Zhang Yi and Sun Quan are the two tigers. Who is the third tiger?"

"That's true of Liu Biao in Jingzhou!" Guo Jia said, "It's not been a day or two since Liu Jingsheng coveted Yuzhang. He sent people to attack Yuzhang before, but Sun Ben stopped him. Intervene again."

When Cao Cao heard this, he immediately understood: "I already know the words of filial piety. Let Zhang Yi and Sun Quan fight each other. If one side is weak, Liu Jingsheng will send troops to make the two evenly matched and consume each other."

"My lord is wise!" Guo Jia smiled and flattered Cao Cao.

It was only at this time that the others came to their senses and quickly followed suit to compliment Cao Cao.

Cao Cao smiled and shook his head, "You don't want to be led astray by Fengxiao."

Everyone laughed, Cao Pi was a little puzzled, and asked Cao Cao: "Father, what should I do with Zhang Yi's memorandum?"

Cao Cao's face darkened for a moment, obviously he hadn't fully accepted Zhang Yi's "rebellion", but he soon laughed again, "Since Zhang Yi wants an official position, then give it to him. General Zhendong, leading Yangzhou Mu, and enfeoffed as Marquis of Yi."

Cao Pi was even more puzzled. He wanted to ask again, but was interrupted by Cao Cao waving his hand. "Biao Sun Quan is the general of Zhennan, leading the governor of Yangzhou, and named Wu Chenghou."

"Great kindness!" All the counselors praised in succession.

Cao Pi also thought about it. According to the Han system, state shepherds and governors are not allowed to exist at the same time.If one has a governor, one cannot have a governor, and if a governor has a governor, one cannot have a governor. Now Zhang Yi is the governor of Yangzhou, and Sun Quan is the governor of Yangzhou. This is forcing the two of them to fight, even if they want to fight!

After the crowd dispersed, Cao Pi stayed behind.

When Cao Cao saw that Cao Pi hadn't left, he knew that the child hadn't figured it out yet.So he said earnestly, "Does my son know why he made a wish to Zhang Yi as a father?"

Cao Pi said: "It should be to appease Zhang Yi! Now our army has tried everything to deal with Yuan Shao. If Zhang Yi is not appeased, he may attack Xuchang."

After Cao Cao heard this, he nodded, "That's true. Yuan Shao is so powerful that he has to deal with it as a father. If he is a little careless, he will be doomed. Besides, our army is short of food now. If Cheng Yu didn't get it from Dongjun dried meat, our army may have run out of food."

When Cao Pi heard Cao Cao say the word jerky, he felt a little sick.He said from others that these jerky may be made of human flesh (the fact is that it is made of human flesh, Cheng Yu plundered his hometown, made many people into jerky, and dedicated it to Cao Cao as military rations, which is clearly recorded in history books. ), when Cao Pi first ate it, he was very uncomfortable. If there was no food, he would definitely not eat it.

When Cao Cao saw Cao Pi's appearance, he knew what was going on. He said to Cao Pi, "You should have heard about the origin of these preserved meats, but don't blame Zhong De for this. He has nothing to do. He can make such a This is enough to prove my loyalty. If Zhang Yi hadn't hid the food, our army would not have run out of food now."

After Cao Pi heard about it, he became even more resentful towards Zhang Yi.He suddenly thought of something, and said to Cao Cao: "Father, Hu You and I made a guess before."

"What guess?" Cao Cao asked with a frown. He hated the name that came out of Cao Pi's mouth.

Cao Pi approached Cao Cao and said, "Hu You said that in Wancheng, it was a burly masked man who shot the elder brother and General Dian to death."

Cao Cao looked at Cao Pi in surprise, "What's going on?"

Cao Pi said: "That night, many people saw a masked man holding a crossbow. Afterwards, when Hu You collected the bodies of his eldest brother and General Dian, he saw that the arrows on their vital points were much shorter than the other arrows. It was the crossbow that shot out."

"Afterwards, I also asked many people. They all said that they had seen the masked man. Many people had heard his voice and seen his military badge. He was a general!"

Following Cao Pi's narration, Cao Cao slowly remembered that when the masked man came that day, he seemed to see the figure in the darkness.

Cao Pi went on to say: "At that time, Zhang Yi was a general!"

"Boom!" Cao Cao's head seemed to explode. He gradually overlapped the figures of Zhang Yi and the masked man, and found that they were really similar!Could it be that the masked man who killed his son and Dianwei was really Zhang Yi?Perhaps this can explain why Zhang Yi rebelled for no reason?He is a guilty conscience!
"Zhang Yi! Zhang Ziguo!" Cao Cao gritted his teeth and looked towards the southeast, where he killed his son and enemy.

After a long time, Cao Cao sighed, he really has no way to deal with Zhang Yi now, he can only make Zhang Yi proud for a while.
