The Strongest Overlord of the Three Kingdoms

From what I see, the only option is to move the capital to temporarily avoid his edge! "

In fact, other people have also thought of this suggestion, but they don't know Cao Pi's thoughts, and no one dares to be the first to say it, so as not to offend Cao Pi.

But after Wu Zhi finished speaking, Cao Pi's expression did not change, and he didn't seem to be angry because of it.Only then did Wu Zhi secretly heave a sigh of relief.

It's just that Cao Pi is still frowning tightly, as if weighing the pros and cons.

At this time, Sima Yi also stood up in good time.

Since assisting Cao Pi to succeed King Wei, Sima Yi has contributed the most, and naturally he has received the greatest reward.

Now Sima Yi has been named Shangshu, and his status is only below Sangong.

I saw him say: "Your Majesty, what Ji Zhong said is true, the move of the capital has a lot of benefits and no harm."

Sima Yi's words immediately attracted Cao Pi's interest.

"Oh? What's Zhongda talking about?"

Sima Yi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Jincheng is close to the front lines of Longxi and Hanyang, and the enemy may reach here at any time.

At that time, not only will there be a huge loss, but it will also cause panic. After the capital is moved, this matter will disappear instantly, which is also beneficial!

Although Jincheng is rich, it is actually supported by the surrounding counties. Now that it is occupied by the other party, it has lost the place to continue to replenish.

I'm afraid it won't be long before they will be in trouble.However, after moving the capital, you can jump out of this predicament and find a more fertile land again.

This two benefits too!

I heard that the Western Regions are vast and rich, and the area can even be compared with the Central Plains.

The most important thing is that people in those places are devoted to Han, and we can use their psychology to profit from it.

Use the power of the Western Regions to strengthen yourself.This three benefits too!

With these three benefits, the king, not to mention fighting against Liu Ke, is not impossible even if the south is called lonely! "

As soon as these words came out, Cao Pi's eyes lit up instantly.

In fact, he had thought of proclaiming himself emperor a long time ago, but because of the losing streak ahead, he was too embarrassed to proclaim himself emperor at this time.

But when he was reminded again by Sima Yi, the thought in his heart was immediately aroused.

Cao Pi recollected Sima Yi's words carefully, and thought that what he said was indeed reasonable.

Although I can't beat Liu Ke, can those small countries in the Western Regions still be his opponents?

At that time, after directly occupying all the Western Regions, wouldn't it be logical for him to proclaim himself emperor based on this attack.

Therefore, Cao Pi was finally tempted.

"Zhongda's words make some sense, what do other lovers think?"

Now that Cao Pi is satisfied, how dare others say more.

Therefore, everyone echoed one by one, and all agreed with the proposal to move the capital.

When Cao Pi saw this, he said directly: "Okay! Since everyone has no opinion, let's make a decision.

Zhongda, this matter is entirely up to you to choose a new capital by yourself. "

Sima Yi immediately took orders and started intense planning.

At first, he only thought about places like Zhangye and Wuwei.

Although they are located in Xiliang, they are still closely connected with the Central Plains, so they are very good choices.

However, Sima Yi finally gave up after thinking for a while, because these places are still too close to Liu Ke.

After the opponent wins Jincheng, they will inevitably continue to move westward, so shouldn't they continue to move westward?

In this way, Sima Yi simply took one step and fled away at once, away from the land of right and wrong in the Central Plains.

Under the restraint of Liu Bei and Sun Ce, at least he can get a few years of peace.

Then take advantage of the development during this period of time to secretly grow its strength.

Therefore, after Sima Yi's consideration, he finally decided to move the new capital directly to Dunhuang.

This place is thousands of miles away from the Central Plains, Liu Ke will not go so far at all for a while.

Moreover, from the Central Plains to here, there is only one Hexi Corridor. The north and south sides are either high mountains or deserts, and there is no way to pass through.

So as long as this Hexi Corridor is kept well, the other party will not threaten him.

In addition, passing through Yumen Pass and Yang Pass to the west of Dunhuang leads to the Protectorate of the Western Regions, which is where the 36 countries of the Western Regions are located.

After occupying this place, the connection between the Western Regions and the Central Plains can be directly cut off.

And he can rely on his own strength to subdue the Western Regions and turn them into his own use.

Therefore, when Sima Yi reported this choice to Cao Pi, Cao Pi immediately agreed with great joy.

In order to ensure the smooth transfer of the capital, he simply sent Sima Yi to lead an army of [-] to Dunhuang first to subdue the surrounding forces.

On the Jincheng side, Wu Zhi and Chen Qun, two confidantes, were in charge of moving the capital.

Although it looks very complicated, under the threat of Liu Ke's army, the upper and lower erupted with incredible potential.
