Chapter 150 Characteristic Constitutional Monarchy
After reading the history once, Cao Cao would naturally not make the same mistakes as in the history, and be burned to the ground by an east wind.

But the results of everything in the world are not just accidental.There are actually three main reasons why Cao Cao was defeated in Chibi. One is that he is too careless, and the other is that the navy is not strong enough.

The last and most important reason is that Jiangnan is on the rise under Sun Ce's governance.

After absorbing a large number of refugees from the north, Sun Ce reclaimed most of the fertile land in the south of the Yangtze River, cleared up the barbarians who often made troubles on the border, and used advanced sea ships to obtain many excellent crop seeds from Southeast Asia, Yizhou and other places.

If it hadn't been for Cao Cao to unify the north in time, then Sun Ce would even have the strength to raise troops for the Northern Expedition and unify the whole country a few years later.

You must know that in the original history of the Three Kingdoms, the Western Jin Dynasty was able to destroy Soochow, and it also benefited from the fact that Sun Hao, the monarch of Soochow at that time, was too cruel and brain-dead: not only made Soochow panic, but also destroyed the buildings on both sides of the Yangtze River. defense facilities.

Therefore, it was extremely difficult for Cao Cao to defeat Liu Bei, who had the secret formula of gunpowder, and Sun Ce, who stabilized Jiangnan, when his strength was not much stronger than that of the later Western Jin Dynasty.

The two sides persisted in Chibi for several months, but Cao Cao could not find a chance to defeat the Sun-Liu coalition army. Finally, because of the news of the rebellion of the Xiongnu and Xiliang from the north, he had no choice but to burn the warship and withdraw the army.

Cao Cao was not defeated in Chibi this time, so he was not in a hurry when he withdrew, and did not give Liu Bei and Sun Ce a chance to pursue him.

However, after Cao Cao's army left, Liu Bei still led his army to capture most of Jingzhou's land, and also imitated history, taking advantage of Liu Zhang's fear of Zhang Lu, and led the army to capture Yizhou.

Liu Bei embarked on his own old path of separatist control of Western Shu. In addition to stabilizing his rule in the south of the Yangtze River, Sun Ce also sent a large number of trading fleets to sea. The Kushan Empire of ancient India, the Persian Empire, the Roman Empire and other countries established contacts and started trade.

After his death, he did not pass the position of monarch to Sun Quan, but to his son.

But it is a pity that, as Sun Ce's younger brother, Sun Quan's authority in Soochow is second only to Sun Ce.

Although he promised Sun Ce that he would assist his son when Sun Ce was seriously ill.But only two years later, Sun Quan successfully seized power under the pretext of Sun Ce's son Wude.

After Sun Quan took control of Soochow, history returned to the old way.The Sun Liu alliance collapsed on its own, even if Sun Ce married Sun Shangxiang to Liu Bei as early as the Battle of Chibi, it could not stop Sun Quan from coveting Jingzhou.

So when Guan Yu tried to take back all the land in Jingzhou from Cao Cao, Soochow attacked Guan Yu with his back, Lu Meng still crossed the river in white clothes, and together with Cao Cao trapped Guan Yu in Maicheng, and finally died.

After Guan Yu's death, although Liu Bei knew that the crusade against Soochow was likely to be defeated, he still attacked Wu for revenge.Then because of Lu Xun's genius tactics, the battle went wrong, and he retreated in embarrassment, entrusting Gu Zhuge Liang to Baidi City.

According to historical records, Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang to recuperate after his death and not to attack Wei.However, after Zhuge Liang managed the Shu Han for several years, he still sent troops to the Central Plains many times.But it still failed.

It is worth mentioning that Liu Bei did not proclaim himself emperor this time, so later generations called him King Han Zhaolie instead of Emperor Han Zhaolie.

The reason Liu Bei did not proclaim himself emperor was naturally Cao Cao's series of efforts to change history.

The knowledge Cao Cao learned in modern times mainly includes scientific farming and constitutional monarchy.

Among them, scientific farming methods helped Cao Cao quickly restore the grain output affected by the war.

For the ancients, food always came first.Whether it is to appease the people or march and fight, food is indispensable.

With enough food, Cao Cao wiped out Yuan Shao's remnants after the Battle of Guandu faster than in history.And he also unified the north a year ahead of schedule.

After the north was stabilized, the first thing Cao Cao did was to find a reason to destroy the Sima family, and watched Sima Yi be executed with his own eyes.

Although the extermination of Sima's family gave Cao Cao another black spot, but Cao Cao had too many black spots, and it would be okay to have one more.

The purpose of destroying the Sima family is to protect the future of Cao Wei, and how to deal with Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty is related to the present of Cao Wei.

As early as when Cao Cao was still studying library management in Xunze, he studied the constitutional monarchy system no less than dozens of times.

So after he returned to the Han Dynasty, he established a constitutional monarchy system with Cao Wei characteristics to ensure the legitimacy of his rule.

Historically, Cao Cao’s constitutional monarchy system has been highly evaluated. Call Xunze to search for it, and you can find articles about the impact of the constitutional monarchy system founded by Cao Cao on history.

The reason why the constitutional monarchy system created by Cao Cao is called a characteristic constitutional monarchy system is because this system was established entirely to ensure the legitimacy of the Cao family’s administration in the Han Dynasty, not to limit imperial power.

First of all, Cao Cao deified Liu Bang as the son of Haotian sent to the world, the son of God who descended to earth to end the Tyranny of the Qin Dynasty.

Therefore, the blood of Haotian flows in the Liu family, and they are the sons of heaven different from ordinary people.But because the world is too filthy, the son of heaven will be infected with all kinds of evil deeds of mortals after staying in the world for a long time, and become a tyrant.

Therefore, when Haotian saw that the sons of heaven left behind by Liu Bang gradually became more brutal, he sent his other son Liu Xiu and his boy Wang Mang to rescue the big man together.

But since Liu Xiu is also the son of heaven, his descendants will also be contaminated by the evil spirits of mortals.

So after Haotian discovered this situation, he sent another boy under his seat, that is, Cao Cao, to save the big man and at the same time be responsible for purifying the Son of Heaven.

After publicizing and letting everyone know about it, Cao Cao built a tall palace in Xuchang and named it the Palace of Heaven.

The function of this palace is to purify those polluted sons of heaven, and Han Xiandi Liu Xie was naturally sent here by Cao Cao, and he could only meet outsiders at a fixed time every day.

If the Son of Heaven is imprisoned and purified, then the government will always need someone to take care of it.

So Cao operated as the boy under the Haotian seat, and stipulated that the Cao family, as the descendant family of the boy under the Haotian seat, had the qualifications to manage the country instead of the son of heaven.

The son of heaven needs to reproduce for a hundred generations before he can purify himself of the evil habits of the world. Therefore, the Cao family needs to replace the son of heaven to govern for a hundred generations, and has established relevant contracts and laws.

It is stipulated that the emperor, as the representative of the country, can only attend various occasions as a symbol of the country before the purification is completed, and has no actual rights.

As the actual rulers of the country, the Cao family will revert to the Liu family after a hundred generations of Liu Xie. If the Cao family does not return to power after a hundred generations of Liu Xie, then the world will attack it together.
