After all, just like Chi You said, if Huo Qubing is allowed to destroy their rear, then there will be no need to form this alliance!
Which of these princes is willing to sacrifice himself for others?
A person who sacrifices himself for others cannot become a prince, let alone survive until now!
If they continue to stay here and fight the Jin army at the risk of their rear being disrupted by Huo Qubing's cavalry, neither Chi You nor Cao Cao are such philanthropists!
Otherwise, if they really defeated the Jin army, they themselves would be displaced by Huo Qubing, and they would be so tired that they would withdraw from the ranks of competing for world hegemony.
So, for Cao Cao and Chi You, what is the point of joining forces to fight against the Jin army?
The reason why they were willing to form an alliance to deal with the Jin army was originally for themselves, not to be used as cannon fodder for other princes!
Therefore, if this joint cavalry team is formed, then Cao Cao and Chi You may not agree.
As Chi You said, if Zhao Kuangyin does not agree, then there is no need for Cao Cao and Chi You to continue participating in this alliance!
Although Chi You's words contained a threatening element, they were also the truth! Because, if Zhao Kuangyin did not agree to this request, Chi You and Cao Cao would really retreat!
Therefore, Zhao Kuangyin could only agree to this request!
However, although Zhao Kuangyin agreed, it always takes time to coordinate the troops! It doesn't take much. If you schedule it for three or two days, there might be tens of thousands more refugees in these two people's territory!
Tens of thousands more refugees would be a big burden for both Cao Cao and Chi You. In the future, after they have dealt with the Jin army, Zhao Kuangyin will be more confident, or at the minimum cost, to deal with Cao Cao and Chi You, and completely unify the three states of the Central Plains.
Besides, Zhao Kuangyin is also afraid!
Although it seems that Huo Qubing is indeed going to the territory of Cao Cao and Chi You, if Huo Qubing's problem is not dealt with in time, Zhao Kuangyin himself will be afraid if Huo Qubing does this again on his territory!
No matter who it befalls, they will always be afraid of the threat of Huo Qubing's cavalry! If one thing goes wrong, their future hegemony may be ruined.
"This thief Li Zifeng allowed the Qiang people to poison our Han people, and everyone in the world will be able to kill him!" Cao Cao said bitterly.
Chi You wanted to actually send troops to deal with Huo Qubing, while Cao Cao wanted to suppress Li Xiang in a righteous way.
Previously, Li Xiang used the name of the Qiang people to smear the princes of the world, and Cao Cao was one of the victims among these people. Now, Cao Cao just wants to treat others in the same way. Li Xiang has discredited their names, so he will also make Li Xiang's reputation stink!
In fact, regarding the Qiang people's invasion of Liangzhou, although Li Xiang used this reason to smear the princes of the world, Cao Cao may not have had his own doubts. He suspected that some ally had contacted the Qiang people and cooperated with them to deal with Li Xiang. .
After all, once the Qiang people really invade Liangzhou on a large scale, it seems that all the princes in the world will benefit!
However, when the people from the school affairs office found out the specific situation of the Qiang people and found out that the so-called Qiang rebellion actually had only about 30,000 Qiang people, Cao Cao had to secretly curse Li Xiang for being shameless.
If there were 100,000 or 80,000 Qiang people who caused the rebellion, it must have been done by one of his allies! But if there are only about 30,000 people, and it is still such an anticlimax, which is almost equivalent to the chaos of a mob, then it cannot be someone among his allies who did it!
After all, the gains and losses are completely disproportionate. Such a small-scale turmoil can't hurt Li Xiang at all. To put it bluntly, it is equivalent to a matter of sprinkling water. But which prince is willing to sacrifice his reputation to do such a thankless thing? ?
For this reason, Cao Cao also ruled out the suspicion of his allies. And after eliminating all impossible possibilities, the remaining one, no matter how incredible it is, then this last possibility will only be the correct answer to this question!
Therefore, if one of these princes did not do it, it could only be Li Xiang himself!
However, Li Xiang gave the princes of the world this shit basin. Although the princes of the world could throw it away from each other, they could not throw it back to Li Xiang.
They can't tell the world that it was Li Zifeng who paid the Qiang people to destroy their territory!
This time, Cao Cao was finally able to vent his anger and took this opportunity to ruin Li Zifeng's reputation!
If everyone's reputations are ruined at the same time, there will actually be no difference. It is equivalent to standing on the same starting line! At most, the reputation of these princes in Liangzhou is terrible, and Li Xiang's reputation in the Central Plains is terrible!
"It is natural to send troops, but my brother Zhao She is one of the best in leading troops under my command! If we want to send troops, my brother Zhao She can be the main general!" Zhao Kuangyin continued.
It is okay to send troops, but in the current situation, this is not allowed. As long as he still wants to deal with the Jin army, he cannot refuse this request!
However, Zhao Kuangyin wanted to hold the leader of the troops in his own hands, so that he could maintain the greatest initiative.
"Okay!" After thinking about it, Cao Cao and Chi You looked at each other and said.
In politics, there are always certain compromises to be made.
Zhao Kuangyin agreed to cooperate with them in sending troops to deal with Huo Qubing, so the choice of this general became a compromise they had to make.
The more critical point is that they now have to make compromises. Because there is no possibility for them to delay time. If they are unwilling to compromise, this matter will inevitably drag on for a while, and the longer it is delayed, the greater the damage to their rear may be!
It is precisely because of this consideration that Cao Cao and Chi You had to compromise now. They did not have the time to argue. At this time, Zhao Kuangyin is willing to argue, but Cao Cao and Chi You are definitely not willing.
Again, this time to deal with Huo Qubing, Zhao Kuangyin originally had to use more power.
