The Rise of the Song People of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 772
When Lu Heng saw Qin Mi, the latter brought Liu Zhang's words and made Lu Heng overjoyed. Although Liu Zhang's Yizhou can only represent Luo County, Chengdu and Jiangzhou, most of the entire Yizhou falls into the Cao Cao's hand.

However, the victory of Chengdu and Jiangzhou (the city of Chongqing in later generations), one accounting for nearly one-third of the population of Yizhou, and the other being the portal of Yizhou is of great significance.

Lu Heng thought for a while and thought that since Liu Zhang chose him, he should be afraid of Cao Cao's reputation. To be honest, Boss Cao's reputation was not very good, but Liu Zhang also had a pretty sister-in-law, Mrs. Wu.

It was Empress Mu of the Shu Han who married Liu Bei in the original time and space, but this time and space may have always been a beautiful widow, and Cao Cao's strength was not as good as that of the Song Dynasty. With Liu Qi Yuzhu in front, Liu Zhang naturally favored himself.

"Zi Chi (Zi Chi in Qin Mi), since this is the case, I am willing to give Liu Zhang the title of 'Ying Ren Gong', and his sons Liu Xun and Liu Chan can both enter the court as officials. When Zi Chi returns to Yizhou, tell Ying Ren Gong, Di Qing and Zhao Yun They will be settled in Chengdu and Jiangzhou respectively.

In addition, Yizhou has many talents in civil and military affairs, and I will not treat them badly. From what I have heard, including Zichi, Huang Quan, Wang Lei, Fei Guan, Pang Xi, Zhang Ren, Yan Yan, etc., as long as they are willing to join the Song Dynasty, I will reward them one by one. . "

"My subordinate, Qin Mi, thanked Your Majesty!" Qin Mi heard that Lu Heng had said most of Liu Zhang's civil and martial arts at once, and knew that the emperor of Song Dynasty really knew the situation in Yizhou very well. In fact, Qin Mi knew that he was now relying on Song Dynasty. I will directly enter the political core of the Song Dynasty, after all, there are precedents of Iraqis.

"In this case, the minister returns to Yizhou immediately!"

"Wait a minute, let Liu Qi go with you, I believe it will be easier to chat with the clan members." Lu Heng thought for a while and wanted Liu Qi and Qin Mi to go to Yizhou together. Qin Mi embarked on a journey back to Yizhou.

At this moment, Qin Mi and Liu Qi were on their way back to Yizhou, and when Lu Heng was discussing "major national policies" with the ministers, Cao Cao was also discussing with important advisers such as Guo Jia, Xun You, Cheng Yu, Fazheng, and Zhang Song. Planning after discussion.

At this time, Cao Cao had already learned about Jingnanla's surrender and Sun Quan's destruction from the school's intelligence network. The most important thing was Cao Ren's urgent report to Cao Cao's Du Gao army intending to approach Shangyong.

Boss Cao had to pay attention to this. Shangyong is the weakest defensive position in the existing territory. Although there is Cao Ren who is good at defending, Cao Ren's new defeated army's instability can easily be used as a breakthrough.

In the conference hall, Cheng Yu came forward and said: "My lord, Shangyong lost is equal to Hanzhong lost, and Hanzhong lost is equal to Guanzhong lost, so Shangyong has to be rescued."

"But Zhongde (Cheng Yu's name is Zhongde), if you want to rescue Shangyong, you must gather a large army, otherwise it will be useless. So how can Luo County be taken? This job is so difficult!" Cao Cao said with some embarrassment.

Boss Cao naturally knows the importance of Shangyong, but the situation is not on Cao Cao's side. Since entering Shu, one fortified city after another has blocked the front, especially Zhang Renshou's Luo County is firmly blocking the road to Chengdu. On top of that, seeing Da Song leveling out one force after another, the next one to make the knife is likely to be himself.

"Ahem! Ahem!" Guo Jia's face was pale and he couldn't help coughing from time to time, but his sharp eyes were full of brilliance: "It's already slow..."

"Fengxiao (Guo Jia's word is Fengxiao)? What's so slow?" Everyone was a little confused about Guo Jia's unclear words.

"Mr. Feng Xiao is saying that under the current situation, Liu Zhang will seek refuge with Song Dynasty?" Fazheng suddenly said shocking words!

The reason why Fa Zheng knew what Guo Jia said was entirely because Fa Zheng understood Liu Zhang's personality better. It was not difficult to deduce this with Fa Zheng's talent.

"This..." Everyone looked at each other. If Liu Zhang took refuge in Song Dynasty, it would be very unfavorable to Cao Cao, and they didn't say that it would be meaningless to step up the attack on Luoxian County. Everyone is very clear.

"Cough cough! Cough cough! Cough cough!" Guo Jia coughed heavily again, and Cao Cao patted him on the back and felt a little better before he said, "It's late... Now we have won Luo County. If we can’t win Chengdu, we have to find another way!”

"What does Feng Xiao mean by this?"

"Received the definite news that Di Qing has opened up the road to Chengdu. Even if we take Luo County, we will not be able to take Chengdu easily, unless Liu Zhang directly chooses to surrender the lord, but with Liu Zhang's heart, even if he surrenders to the lord, when Di Qing's army is killed, he will repeat it again and again. , so it's late..."

"This!", "Aren't we going to sit and wait for death?" Some discussions were unavoidable in the meeting hall.

"What did Feng Xiao just say about finding a new way?" Cao Cao grasped the key point in Guo Jia's words.

"Ahem! Do you know about Qin Kai?" Guo Jia didn't answer, but asked instead.

During Qin Kai and the Warring States period, the famous generals of the Yan State were hostages in Donghu in the early years. After Yan Zhaowang Jizhi ascended the throne, Qin Kai fled back to Yan State and defeated Donghu and repelled thousands of miles. Today, the five counties of Shanggu, Yuyang, Youbeiping, Liaoxi, and Liaodong They were all lands snatched from the Donghu people at that time, and then the Great Wall of Yan was built, which greatly expanded the territory and power of Yan State. It was also in this way that Yan State became one of the seven heroes of the Warring States Period. The two kingdoms were destroyed.

And those sitting here are all well-educated people, so they naturally know who Guo Jia is talking about Qin Kai, and they understand what they mean. The Yizhou territory controlled by Cao Cao is not only bordered by Chengdu in the south, but also the vast Qiang area, and it is all scattered. Including the Mashan Qiang, Shenlang Qiang, Dazang Qiang, Longqiao Qiang, Boshen Qiang and so on.

That is, the later generations of Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture and the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau to the west. Of course, there is still a chaotic force here, which is Qingtang, who has not appeared for a long time.

"Feng Xiao means that we will kill the Qiang people?" Xun You asked knowingly, but suddenly realized that this was a good way, and Cao Cao fell into deep thought.

After making an appointment for a cup of tea, Cao Cao finally said, "Guo Jia, Xun You, Cheng Yu, Fazheng, and Zhang Song leave the others to rest first."

After everyone left, Cao Cao stared at Guo Jia and said, "Does Feng Xiao not think about our war with Song Dynasty?"

Cao Cao thought a lot about this cup of tea. Guo Jia’s strategy was not only to seek to increase his strength, but also to find a way out after the defeat of the Song Dynasty. Guo Jia did not propose such a way when he fought Yuan Shao. Proposing such a strategy now is obviously not optimistic about the war with Song Dynasty.

"Ahem! My lord, it's not that Jia doesn't try his best, but the situation will only get worse. As the unification of the Song Dynasty gets closer and closer, the people's minds are sure that the people will become more and more war-weary. The state can only survive and be destroyed sooner or later..."
