Chapter 53 Cao Pi succeeded to the third king Nanye sent troops into Xiliang 8
In order to let Liu Qi send troops to support Liu Bei to take Yuzhou, Zhuge Liang came up with the idea of borrowing troops from Nanye to guard the second county of Jingzhou. To put it bluntly, he gave the second county to Nanye, but changed a nice statement for Liu Qi to accept. This has three advantages: First, it can persuade Liu Qi to send troops to Yuzhou. Second, after getting Yuzhou, the subordinate relationship between Liu Bei and Liu Qi will be adjusted. As a result, Liu Bei became attached to Liu Qi in Jingzhou and Liu Qi became attached to Liu Bei in Yuzhou. Third, you can sell your personal feelings to Nanye and let Nanye get the whole territory of Jingzhou. I'm embarrassed to compete with Liu Bei for Yuzhou again.
Nanye knows that although Xiangyang County is called a county, it has a small area. It is mainly a Xiangyang city, which is not as large as Wuling County when combined with Jiangxia County. The so-called two counties are actually similar to one county. Zhuge Liang's exchange of land for Yuzhou is also a good deal. However, Nan Ye was worried that if Zhuge Liang returned the soldiers and Jiang Xia and Xiangyang would go back afterwards, he would lose a lot.
Pang Tong felt that it was really possible when he heard Nan Ye's worry. After all, Zhuge Liang's superficial reason was to borrow troops to defend the city. He didn't say that he would send the second county, so he could naturally ask for it again. However, since Nan Ye has considered it, he can ask Zhuge Liang to add an additional confidentiality gift agreement after the superficial lease agreement. Jiaozhou officials often deal with businessmen, and many materials are purchased through Jiaozhou righteous merchants. The most proficient ones are various contract agreements.
Since the two sides decided to cooperate, Nan Ye asked Pang Tong, Jia Xu and Zhuge Jin to talk to Zhuge Liang about the specific details. Perhaps none of the three are as smart as Zhuge Liang, but Nan Ye believes that these three think tanks will only be stronger than Zhuge Liang in one place.
Zhuge Liang's visit is also an eye-opener. Although Sun, Liu and Nan were alliances before, there were no specific contractual rights and obligations. However, Nanye, who borrowed soldiers this time, moved out the cooperation agreement. Zhuge Liang has not dealt with official documents, but most of the ancient official documents are concise and explanatory. How can they be as detailed and specific as modern contracts? Jiaozhou implements the legal system, and all kinds of documents are formulated very carefully like modern contracts, so as to avoid mistakes and difficult to judge rights and responsibilities. Zhuge Liang was dumbfounded when he took the agreement drafted by Pang Tong. He didn't know who Party A and Party B were, let alone professional terms such as force majeure.
Pang Tong was also quickly comforted when he saw Zhuge Liang's embarrassment. In the past, Zhuge Liang saw him embarrasment. This time, Pang Tong finally raised his eyebrows and began to explain the content of the agreement to Zhuge Liang. In fact, these things in the agreement are all newly learned by Pang Tong after he arrived in Jiaozhou. Even if Fengchu and Pang Tong want to govern in Jiaozhou, he must first learn before taking up his post.
The more logical and rigorous it is, the fewer contract loopholes with detailed rules, and there is no ambiguous explanation. Zhuge Liang's argument against the Confucianism lost its role in front of the detailed agreement, and finally had to be led by the three of Pang Tong and signed the agreement to leave.
As soon as Zhuge Liang left, Nan Ye immediately sent troops, causing Zhuge Jin and Huang Zhong to lead 20,000 Jiaozhou troops to take over the second county. The rest of the troops were divided into two routes, one led by Zhang Liao, Jia Xu, Ma Chao, Pound and Ma Dai to take Chang'an. On the other hand, Nanye, Pang Tong, Zhao Yun, Dian Wei and others led the troops to Luoyang and Science City. After many years, Nan Ye finally came back.
Nan Ye's soldiers sent Sili, Liu Bei's troops sent troops to Yuzhou, Sun Quan's troops sent troops to Xuzhou, and the territory under Cao Cao's jurisdiction rose everywhere. At the same time, the news of Cao Cao's death also spread to Xuchang, and Cao Ying's civil and military officials were all in chaos. The people under the rule also had unstable hearts and minds of the people because the bodyguard bureau and the money bank closed, and the money tickets could not be exchanged.
Cao Cao's wife Bian saw that the courtiers were in chaos and no one was in charge, so she ordered Xun Yu to take charge. Previously, Xun Yu was alienated by Cao because he opposed Cao Cao's throne, so he did not go south to Chibi but escaped a disaster. At this time, Cao Cao and his subordinate martial arts ministers were taken away by Nan Ye, and only Xun Yu was the only one who could have the qualifications to govern.
The first order after Xun Yu's comeback was to give up Si Li, Yuzhou and Xuzhou, and shrink his troops to defend Xuchang. Cao Cao's defeat in Chibi not only lost his life, but also buried the civil and military generals and hundreds of thousands of soldiers. If Xun Yu wants Xu Chang to lose, he must transfer troops from elsewhere, and then exchange space for time to stabilize the situation.
When Cao soldiers from all over the country received military orders to rush to Xuchang, Cao Ying's Wenwu was slightly stable. Then Xun Yu borrowed the imperial edict from Emperor Liu Xie, and handed over the son, money tickets and Jiaozhou Tongbao continued to circulate. If you need to exchange it, you can go to the government to exchange five baht of money. As soon as this imperial edict came out of the hearts of the people, it was immediately stable. What the people were most afraid of was the war together. Cao and Nan two families had a bad relationship, and the hand-money and money in their hands turned into waste paper. Nowadays, currency can continue to circulate, but people are not in a hurry to exchange it.
After the military and people's hearts were a little calm, Xun Yu gathered the generals in the hall and said, "Unfortunately, the lord died in Chibi. Nan Ye, Sun Quan and Liu Bei were not thieves and sent an army to attack. We should set up a new master for today's plan and think about revenge on the lord. What do you think?"
When the generals heard the words, they all said, "What Xun Gong said is very true!"
Xun Yu continued: "Although the lord hurriedly abandoned the world and left no legacy, there is a direct father-in-law, and there is no direct-in-law. Cao Ang, the eldest son of the lord, unfortunately died in Wancheng in his early years. Now the eldest son takes Cao Pi as his leader and foolishly thinks that Cao Pi should succeed to the position of prime minister. Do you have any other intentions?"
Due to Nanye, the Battle of Red Cliff was advanced by several years. Nowadays, Cao Cao's sons are still minors and born to the Bian family. There is no competition for power with each other. Therefore, Xun Yu mentioned Cao Pi, and all the literature and martial arts came to the discussion.
Xun Yu saw that the major event had been decided, and then the news of Cao Cao's death was officially announced in the whole city, and all the civil and military officials mourned. Because Cao Cao's body was sacrificed to Ma Teng by Ma Chao, he was later buried by Nan Ye. Cao Ying's generals had to put Cao Cao's clothes into mourning with a golden coffin and silver.
After Cao's burial, Cao Pi ascended the throne on the same day. Li Ru forced Emperor Liu Xie to make Cao Pi the Duke of Wei and Prime Minister, led Jizhou herdsmen, and was congratulated by bureaucrats of all sizes. Cao Pi also appointed Xun Yu as a minister and was in charge of political affairs. The rest of the literature and martial arts have their own awards.
After the congratulations, all the officials looked at Cao Pi and waited for Cao Pi to pass the order. But Cao Pi is only thirteen or fourteen years old at this time. How can he compare with Cao Cao? Seeing the officials looking at him, Cao Pi also looked at the officials and didn't know what to do.
Just as Cao Pi and the officials stared, the soldiers outside the hall came into the hall to report: "The Prime Minister, Nan Ye has taken the land of Sili and is attacking the tiger prison. Liu Bei took Yuzhou and came to Xuchang. Sun Quan took Xuzhou, and the soldiers and horses also came to Yanzhou.
Cao Yingzhong exploded as soon as he heard it and talked about it, and everyone was in danger. Cao Pi was eight years old and could write a pen. Although it was difficult to compare with Cao Cao at this time, he also understood the reason. When he heard that three soldiers and horses came together, he was shocked and said, "What should I do?"
Xun Yu came out of class and said, "There is no need for the Prime Minister to panic!" Xu Chang's soldiers have enough food and the benefits of the city. Even Nanye, Liu Bei and Sun Quan are difficult to break through when they come together. What's more, there must be a good strategy to defeat the enemy here.
Cao Pi asked the people after being mentioned by Xun Yu: "What good strategy do the public have to defeat the enemy?"
Cao Chun was defeated by Zhou Yu and returned to Xuchang to know that Cao was dead. He was heartbroken. At this time, he heard the enemy come and said angrily, "The Prime Minister doesn't need to worry. I am willing to lead the troops out of the city to fight with the thief."
Han Hao came out of duty and said, "The three thieves are fierce and should not fight. Cheng is quite handsome and guard the city."
Cui Yan said, "There is a saying that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. In my opinion, Cheng is quite able to move to Ye City with the emperor. Xu Chang can abide by the rules and can't retreat."
Liu Fu stepped forward and said, "What Ji Wei said is reasonable! In addition to the relocation of the capital, the prime minister can also return the public position to relieve the anger of the three families and make peace with the three families for the time being. In the future, we will take revenge for today.
Cao Zhen said eagerly, "The Prime Minister must not move to the capital!" I hope to coexist with Xu Du."
Cao Pi's audience, Wen Wu, was full of desire to fight, and his head was big. He couldn't help asking Xun Yu, "Does Mr. Wen Ruo have a wonderful plan to defeat the enemy?"
When the generals saw Cao Pi asking, they didn't say anything and looked at Xun Yu. Xun Yu came out of class and said, "The words of all the generals are reasonable. As for whether to move the capital or not, it also depends on whether Xu Du can be guarded. Liu Bei's soldiers were slightly small, so it was also difficult to get a place in Yuzhou, and it was just a bluff. Sun Quan's battle is not bad, but if he wants to attack the city, it is still far away. The Prime Minister doesn't need to worry. Only Nanye's soldiers and horses all the way are very worrying. If he works together with the other two roads, Xu Chang is in danger, and I have nothing to break.
As soon as Xun Yu's words fell, there was a saying: "I have a plan that can be defeated by the national teacher."
When everyone heard it, it was the counselor Li Ru. Although Li Ru had a strategy, he was very excluded by Cao Jiang because he had been an official of Dong Zhuo before, and he was unwilling to contact him in Chinese martial arts. Li Ru's self-known voice is not good, and he is also very low-key, but at this time, everyone has nothing to do, and he can't keep a low profile. He bowed forward and said, "The Prime Minister can quickly send people to make peace with Liu Bei, cut off the land of Si Li east of the Hulao with Liu Bei, and then send him to inform Nan Ye about this matter. If Nan Ye comes out of the tiger prison and enters Xuchang, he must first pass through Liu Bei's place, and Liu Bei has made peace with the Prime Minister. How dare Nan Ye pass by? Nanye either took into account that Liu Bei did not dare to send troops, or fought with Liu Bei, and Xu Chang was safe.
Cao Pi was happy to hear the words: "This is a wonderful plan! But what if Liu Bei doesn't want to make peace?
At this time, another person came out of duty and said, "The Prime Minister doesn't need to worry too much. I have a plan to order the three families to strike."
Everyone in the hall was shocked when they heard the words. Looking for fame, they saw that the speaker was very young and his eyes were like an eagle. It was Sima Yi.
Sima Yi said, "Shirdcai Yuan Yingyancheng quite retired from the public throne to calm the public's anger. I don't think so. The three thieves were angry about the public position of the prime minister, only because there were three of them. Instead of returning the official position, the prime minister had no order in all directions, so it was better to seal the three people in all directions. If you go further, the Prime Minister can make three kings. As long as one of the three is awarded, the other two will inevitably accept peace with the Prime Minister. After the three became kings, it is reasonable for the prime minister to be promoted to the throne.
Cao Pi also knew that the "king" was bigger than the "public" and began to hear Sima Yi say that he was a little unhappy to make the three kings. When he heard that Sima Yi planned to be king for himself, he was happy again. However, he couldn't make up his mind and asked Xun Yu, "What do you think, Mr. Wen Ruo?"
Xun Yu smiled and said, "This is a good plan! If used properly, it can not only make the three families retreat, but also make the three families the enemy. The Prime Minister can act like this..."
