"Good news from Huainan!! Good news from Huainan!!"
When Jiao Bo came to Tai Chi Hall again, his face was full of smiles.
Since His Majesty took charge, the generals of the Wei Dynasty have become more and more capable.
Deng Ai defeated Jiang Wei in Yongliang, and now Guanqiu Jian defeated Sun Jun in Huainan.
Cao Mao, who was in the west hall, quickly put down the books in his hands and raised his head to look at the door.
"His Majesty!!"
Uncle Jiao hurriedly paid a visit to Cao Mao, and then handed the document to Cao Mao respectfully.
"Your Majesty, General Chariot and Cavalry has received good news. Jiang Ban, the vanguard of General Zhendong, killed Wu's Zuo General Liuzan, miscellaneous generals Sun Leng, Jiang Xiu and others."
"Leave a like?"
Cao Mao was stunned for a moment, and Jiao Bo said with a smile: "Yes, I also heard that General Chariot and Cavalry has led the main force to chase Sun Jun. He killed Sun Jun and fled in panic, leaving his helmet and armor behind."
"In a few days, there will definitely be greater success!"
"After Your Majesty took charge, the Wei Dynasty won every battle, all because of Your Majesty's merits!!"
Jiao Berg was extremely excited.
Cao Mao also raised his head and laughed at this moment.
If I remember correctly, in history, Sun Jun subdued Wen Qin and his son in this attack. Although he lost Liuzan, he gained a lot of prisoners and people, so he can be considered accountable.
But this time it was different. Sun Jun did not gain anything during his expedition, but Liuzan died in the battle.
Sun Jun's own prestige is not enough, so he needs to use cruel criminal laws and marriage relationships to maintain his status. After such a torment, I am afraid that the big families in the Wu Kingdom will also have a great opinion of him.
And this is definitely a good thing for myself.
Needless to say, the external influence depends on the domestic influence. After he came to power, he first defeated Shu, then suppressed the rebellion, and killed Wu generals. For a long time, the ministers did not dare to have any other ideas. .
Jiao Bo saw a hint of joy on the emperor's face, and he put the watch aside.
"Okay, spread the good news to everywhere as soon as possible!"
"Call Chen Shangshu, Lieutenant Zhuge, General Xiahou and others to come to the West Hall!"
Uncle Jiao quickly accepted the order.
Soon, these big guys appeared in front of Cao Mao.
Nowadays, Zhuge Dan is coordinating the military as a Taiwei, and he is responsible for solving issues such as the treatment of the entire army, while Chen Qian is responsible for the planning, supervision, merit recording, rewards, etc. of specific wars as the Minister of the Ministry of War. As for Xiahou Xian , he is just the supreme commander of the Chinese army.
When these three people appeared in front of Cao Mao, Cao Mao happily let them read the battle report.
Zhuge Dan took one look and immediately chuckled.
This Jiang Pan is his subordinate.
Zhuge Dan hated Wen Qin very much and was still a little prejudiced against Wen Qin's replacement. However, he was very happy to see that his old subordinate had made such a great contribution.
He immediately said: "This Jiang Ban has been following me for many years. I didn't expect that he would actually achieve such a feat today."
Cao Mao smiled and said: "This is all due to Zhuge Gong's original teaching."
Zhuge Dan hurriedly declined, never saying that it was his own fault, but he couldn't hide his pride, and Chen Qian didn't even want to look at him.
Xia Houxian just felt a little pity.
"If we had known that they were going to attack, we should have allowed the Chinese army to go. The Chinese army is extremely powerful. If the Chinese army went there, it might be able to achieve greater results."
People like Wen Yang and Ma Long are in the Chinese Army, which is stationed in Luoyang. Unless there is a situation like Jiang Wei that the local war zone cannot deal with, the Chinese Army will not be dispatched.
Cao Mao also agreed.
Don't look at Cao Wei's advantage over both Shu and Wu, but this is only in terms of defense.
Both Shu and Wu have favorable geographical advantages. When they go to war, Cao Wei can easily defeat them, but if Cao Wei wants to attack them, the situation will be different.
Needless to say, the checkpoints of the Shu Kingdom are majestic and the roads are difficult to navigate. If you want to conquer the Shu Kingdom, you will probably need the Chinese army to add a local theater and food supplies from several states. If it is delayed, even the Wei Dynasty will be defeated. Too much to take.
Wu's army typically lacks in offense and has more than enough defense. Now their capable generals are not dead yet. If they want to attack by force, I'm afraid it will still not be easy. It will also be very troublesome to form a navy army.
Today's Wei Dynasty has a huge advantage over them, but it is not yet a crushing advantage.
However, Cao Mao was not in a hurry, because the Shu and Wu kingdoms were getting worse and worse.
People now think that the current Shu and Wu countries are dead because they have never seen the Shu and Wu countries in the future. Of course, the Wei Kingdom is not too generous, but Cao Mao has stepped on the brakes in time.
In the future, Cao Wei's advantages in facing these two countries will become greater and greater. When it has a decisive advantage, it will be the time for great unification.
Cao Mao convened the three people this time to discuss the strategic deployment of the two countries.
"Previously, a wise man reported that he wanted to set up a general to conquer Shu. Who do you think can hold such a position?"
Xia Houxian said: "Zhang Yi can do it."
Cao Mao smiled and replied: "Mr.

Chen Qian hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, if it's just a pretext and no attack, you might as well appoint Zhuge Gong, the governor of Yongzhou, to take charge."
"Zhuge Gong and General Deng are in front. When the Shu Kingdom learns about it, they will definitely be frightened and will not dare to look down upon it."
The new governor of Youzhou is Zhuge Xu, a descendant of Zhuge Dan and Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Xu is not a very talented person. He is average in both domestic affairs and military affairs. But fortunately, he has no evil deeds, has good moral standards, is easy to talk to, and has a cautious personality.
If you let him go to Yongzhou, you don't expect him to be able to rule Yongzhou. Speaking of which, before the Shu Kingdom can be solved, it is not practical to want to rule Yongliang. The enemy always causes sabotage.
Cao Mao asked him to go over. On the one hand, he was watching Deng Ai, lest Deng Ai suddenly got some ideas and started to do it directly. On the other hand, he also helped Deng Ai to stabilize the situation in Yongzhou. This man came from a wealthy family and had a good reputation. He was very close to the local officials. We can play together.
Chen Qian proposed him not to flatter Zhuge Dan, nor to think of what Zhuge Xu could do. It was simply because he was in Yongzhou, and he led the general as the governor, which would more easily bring pressure to Shu. He felt that Cao Wei seemed The attack will begin at any moment.
Zhong Hui and Cao Mao proposed to pretend to be a general to conquer Shu, but in fact they were fighting an "economic" war with Shu. Cao Wei could organize people to carry out "armed parades" one after another, claiming to attack Shu by force, so what could Shu do? Strengthen defenses again and again and prepare to resist.
This will cost you money, make you afraid to do other things, and keep you focused on the front line.
Isn't this another tactic to survive the old man?
Zhuge Dan said, "No, Zhuge Xu has no talent, not enough to be a general!"
Xia Houxian thought for a moment and said: "There have been many precedents of leading governors as generals. This is all to resist foreign enemies. I think it is okay."
Cao Mao did not hesitate any longer and immediately decided to appoint Zhuge Xu as the general to conquer Shu.
They discussed the next strategy. In the short term, Cao Mao had no intention of using troops against the two countries.
Chen Qian believed that when dealing with Shu, we should put pressure on them to prevent them from being idle, while when dealing with Wu, we should relax and allow them to relax.
The internal struggle for power in the Wu State was still very serious. The Wei State fought tooth and nail to kill one of their generals, but they could take away several of them in one internal fight.
In terms of efficiency, their own people were better killed.
The Shu Kingdom is different. Only when they face military pressure will they have different voices. The rest of the time, there is no major conflict. After all, there is Chen Zhi who can both sides.
Everyone discussed for a long time before deciding on the strategic plan of emergency and slowdown.
Naturally, the army cannot be idle. Xia Houxian believed that the Chinese army should be divided into several battalions to cooperate with Yongliang's army and conduct several operations against the Qianghu in Yongliang.
Every time Jiang Wei went on an expedition, these Qiang and Hu always wanted to cause trouble behind his back and let the Chinese army go. On the one hand, they would not be able to be used by Jiang Wei, and on the other hand, they would calm the situation in Yongliang and allow the Chinese army to maintain their combat effectiveness.
Cao Mao once again agreed to Xia Houxian's arrangement.
And Chen Qian also had a new proposal. Wei could start training its navy.
You can let Wang Ji, Wen Qin, Guanqiu Jian, Hu Zun and others start to build warships in advance to train the navy and be ready to conquer Wu.
In this way, the basic strategy of the Wei Dynasty was finalized.
Cao Mao sent the three bosses all the way to the entrance of the west hall. After the three of them left, Cao Mao exhaled and felt a lot more relaxed all over.
"Chengjun!"
Cheng Ji, then the lieutenant colonel of the palace, hurriedly appeared in front of Cao Mao.
"Prepare the car, I want to go out."
Cheng Ji hurriedly asked: "Where are you going, Your Majesty? The Chancellor's Terrace or the Censor's Terrace?"
"Go to the street."
"Feel free to take a stroll."
"Um??"
Cheng Ji was a little shocked, but when he saw Cao Mao's expression, it didn't look like he was joking. In Cheng Ji's impression, the emperor's daily schedule was full, with almost no time for leisure.
You actually want to go shopping on the street today?
Cao Mao smiled and said: "There is no need to clear the road, just send people to set up defenses around it."
"I have been in Luoyang for so long, but I have never visited Luoyang. I also want to see what Luoyang is like."
Cao Mao suddenly felt a little emotional.
Cheng Ji hurriedly agreed and went to prepare.
Soon, Cao Mao got on the pony carriage and left through the side door unsteadily.
This time, the soldiers did not drive away the people along the road. When they walked out of the inner city, the prosperous and lively Luoyang appeared in front of Cao Mao.
Luoyang is much more lively than Yuancheng, with people coming and going, and people from all walks of life can be seen here.
Cao Mao simply got off the carriage and walked on the streets of Luoyang. The most popular people in Luoyang were the children of wealthy families and young scholars.
These people were wearing all kinds of strange clothes, and their colorful appearance was an eye-opener for Cao Mao.
Cao Mao, who was unconventional and independent, and on foot, was stopped by them many times.
Seeing this strange and handsome young man, many scholars enthusiastically said: You can come to my house and have a drink.
Cheng Ji almost drew his sword, but Cao Mao stopped him with his eyes. Cao Mao just smiled and refused, wandering around again.
