In the secret room of the Prime Minister's Mansion - brightly lit and heavily guarded, Cao Cao, Xiao Yi, Cheng Yu, Man Chong, Mao Jie more than thirty civil and military officials gathered together, including the four brothers Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, Cao Zhi and Cao Xiong. , this meeting is only for one thing - the Western Expedition!
After several months of preparation, the "Taotie Army" camp in the north of the city has recruited 80,000 people, all of whom are fierce and fearless desperadoes. After rigorous training, they are equipped with sophisticated ordnance, war horses, and food and grass. Enough.
At the same time, Liangzhou Mu Zhongyao went all out to collect a large number of horses and camels to transport materials for the Western Expedition. Through Xiao Yi's personal relationship, the Xiqiang and Xiongnu tribes also agreed to provide supplies, and each made their own contributions. Ten thousand men and horses assist in the battle!
"The ugly beauties in the Western Regions are so rampant and rude that they dare to resist the might of the Han Dynasty. We can only attack them with soldiers and horses. Now that spring is blooming, the roads are clear, and the army is ready!"
I wonder which general is willing to ask for help and lead the army out of Yumen Pass to break the siege of Ershi City, annihilate the coalition forces of Daxia, Kangju, and Dayue clan, and restore the Western Region Protectorate? "
"Perhaps Cordyceps sinensis has miraculous effects, or maybe it's because the state affairs are going well and he's in a good mood. Cao Cao's complexion has improved a lot, and he speaks with great energy. He is questioning the civil and military ministers and planning the candidates for the expedition!
The Western Regions are far away and the environment is harsh. There are more than 30 large and small countries and hundreds of tribes. The situation is extremely complicated and cannot be pacified without both wisdom and bravery. Cao Cao has been thinking about it for a long time and hopes to send one person to fight - Xiao Yi!
Xiao Yi was both civil and military, and had outstanding military exploits. Especially after returning from the Southern Expedition, he not only firmly held military power, but also intervened in financial and administrative power. His power expanded rapidly, which made Cao Cao restless!
"If Xiao Yi is sent out to conquer the Western Regions, it will be easy to pacify the Western Regions, and then let him fight all the way to the west and never return to the Central Plains. Then we can take the opportunity to slowly disintegrate the Xiao Group, and the Cao family will no longer have any henchmen!"
"But, unless Xiao Yi is in trouble, he will leave the colorful world of the Central Plains alone and go to the Western Regions to chew the sand. If he forcibly gives the order, I'm afraid there will be a sudden change!"
"The general is incompetent, and I am willing to lead the army in the westward expedition to relieve the siege of Ershi City!"
"I am willing to take a trip to pacify the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions and promote the power of the Han Dynasty!"
¡¡¡¡
Xiao Yi is not willing to go to the west, but there are many people who are willing. Xu Huang, Zhang He, Yu Jin, and Le Jin have all asked for help. Even clan generals such as Xiahou Dun and Xia Houyuan, as well as several civil servants like Man Chong and Mao Jie are eager to try!
Since the Western and Eastern Han Dynasties, in terms of military achievements, no one can compare with Wei Qing and Huo Qubing. In addition to the two men who were masters of war and won many battles, more importantly, they conquered Mobei, established the Western Region, and opened up the territory for the Han Dynasty. Tuotu, all the Huns will be wiped out!
In comparison, among Emperor Guangwu's twenty-eight Yuntai generals, Deng Yu, Cen Peng, and Wu Han were also good at fighting, but their prestige was far different, all because they were fighting a civil war and the people they killed were all of the same clan. !
It's the same now. Cao's army has been fighting in the south and north for many years, mostly fighting with the princes. The Han people attacked the Han people, and they didn't feel any glory when they won. The few battles against the Western Qiang, Xiongnu, and Hu Jie were all fought by Xiao Yi alone. His achievements are only envied by others!
Now we have to go on an expedition to the Western Regions and fight against foreign armies. If we win, we will be able to leave a name in history, ranking behind Wei Qing and Huo Qubing. What an honor this is, so the civil and military ministers are extremely tempted!
"Haha, I am very pleased that you all took the initiative to ask for help. It can be seen that the court is full of talents. However, the Western Region is surrounded by powerful enemies and logistical supplies are difficult. Ma Chao is even more brave. I am afraid that ordinary generals will not be able to suppress him and it will be difficult for the two troops to work together. Work together!
I heard that when Wuchou was in Guanzhong, he had a deal with Ma Mengqi, and he won a battle of martial arts and drinking. Everyone admired him so much that he was honored as General Shenwei. I am also honored! "
Cao Cao was very sophisticated. He first emphasized the difficulty of the Western Expedition, and then brought out Ma Chao to intimidate the generals who asked for military leave and make them retreat in the face of difficulties!
Ma Chao is extremely brave and is known as the best warrior in Xiliang. When ordinary generals meet him, not only can they not control him, but they may be restrained by him, and their lives may even be in danger!
In the end, he praised Xiao Yi and told his story of defeating Ma Chao. In fact, he was hinting to everyone that Xiao Yi was the best candidate for the Western Expedition, and then forced him to enlist to fight and realize his plan of "disaster flowing westward"!
"Thanks to the Prime Minister's praise, I will be extremely ashamed. I was young and frivolous at that time, so I had a fight with Ma Mengqi. This man is brave and unreasonable, but he is also a good-tempered person. In fact, he is not difficult to get along with!
Logically speaking, the Western Expedition is a national event, and the general should be invited to join the army, but ahem, but when Wulin retreated, the general was trapped in the swamp and lostThere were several hidden injuries and the loss of energy and blood was severe!
Every time it rains on a cloudy day, I feel sore and weak. The wind and rain in the Western Region are unpredictable, and there is heavy snow in June Ahem, the general's body is nothing, I am afraid that it will delay the important events of the campaign, which is a loss to the Prime Minister cough cough! "
Having been with the traitor for many years, Xiao Yi's instincts have become how to defend himself and how to act like a ghost. His color changed dramatically when he spoke, his face turned pale, and his breathing became short, as if he might not be able to survive the next moment.
Since ancient times, emperors have neither hungry soldiers nor sick generals. Xiao Yi has become such a ghost. Who has the nerve to let him lead the Western expedition? He should cultivate himself well in Xuchang!
"Wuchou is the pillar of the country, so you should take good care of yourself. I still have to rely on you, and the dogs also need to be taken care of. Since Wuyou can't lead the army, how about letting General Ma Liu go on the expedition?
Ma Liu is brave and good at fighting, and he is from Xiliang. He is familiar with the situation in the Western Regions. It can be said that he has the right time, location, people and people. The expedition will be successful immediately! "
When the traitor's plan failed, he made another plan. This time he wanted to send Ma Liu to the Western Regions. He was Xiao Yi's best friend and had been stationed in Guanzhong-Chang'an, firmly guarding the Xiao Group's backyard.
Sending Ma Liu to the Western Regions is equivalent to cutting off Xiao Yi's right and left arm. Sending a general named Cao to take over the affairs of Guanzhong-Chang'an is equivalent to stealing the Xiao family's retreat, which is also extremely beneficial to the Cao family!
"What the Prime Minister said is absolutely true. Ma Liu is brave and good at fighting, but he is a suitable candidate. However, a few days ago, a letter was sent from Chang'an saying that the mother of Ma Liu's cousin's cousin passed away!
My brother is a man of great filial piety, but now he is heartbroken. He has sworn to observe filial piety to his cousin for one year, abstain from alcohol and meat, and refrain from killing. Now that he is sent to fight in battle, is he afraid of being unreasonable? "
Xiao Yi has been running Guanzhong for many years and has always regarded it as his base camp. How can he allow others to get involved, so he immediately found an excuse to refuse.
???????????????????????????????? It¡¯s a bit unreasonable to use two excuses to refuse. If you continue to pester me, your flaws will be exposed, so let¡¯s ¡®turn defense into offense¡¯!
"The general recommends a candidate who is strong-blooded and brave. If he leads the troops to the Western Regions, he will definitely achieve a complete victory. Are you afraid that the Prime Minister will be reluctant to part with him?"
"Whoever has this ability, as long as it is beneficial to the country, I will definitely give it up!"
"Third Young Master - Ziwen can be handsome!"
"Huang Xu'erwhat about this?"
No one expected that Xiao Yi would recommend Cao Zhang to lead the army. The civil and military ministers looked at each other and were at a loss for a while. Cao Cao also fell silent and weighed the pros and cons!
Among the four legitimate sons, Cao Zhang is the least suitable to inherit the inheritance. He has a bad temper and is brave and strong. He can still intimidate him when he is alive. But once he is gone, what if he is afraid that the brothers will be incompatible?
Let Cao Zhang go to the Western Regions, which can not only make great achievements, but also separate the brothers and avoid the tragedy of fratricide. This is the happiest thing for a father.
"Ziwen is too young and has not made any achievements. If he is allowed to lead an army by himself, I am afraid that people will be dissatisfied and it will ruin national affairs!"
Knowing that this was Xiao Yi's plan, Cao Cao was still excited because there were so many benefits. He was just worried about Cao Zhang's ability and whether he could bear this important task?
"Haha, when Huo Qubing first went to Monan with the army, he led 800 warriors and marched for hundreds of miles, beheading more than 2,000 Xiongnu. He also killed the Xiongnu Shanyu's grandfather and captured his uncle That year, Huo Qubing was ten At seven years old, who wouldn¡¯t admire him greatly?
Ziwen is already twenty-five years old. He has fought with the army in the past and has made many achievements. He can share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers. He will definitely be qualified for the Western Expedition and pacify the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions in one fell swoop! "
Xiao Yi stepped forward to support him, saying a lot of things about how since ancient times heroes are born in youth and their ambitions are not in their youth. At the same time, he secretly winked at the Cao brothers!
"My child's lifelong wish is to imitate Wei Qing and Huo Qubing and drive hundreds of thousands of athletes across the desert. Although the blood is stained with yellow sand, I have no regrets or regrets. Please fulfill it, father!"
"The third brother has been fond of martial arts since he was a child, and he is determined to make contributions. Now, thanks to the recommendation of Grand Sima, please father, please help him!"
"Yu Xi came from the north, climbed the embankment with force, drove over the Xiongnu, and watched Ling Xianbei from his left It's time for my Cao family to produce a famous general. Please ask father to help my third brother!"
Cao Zhang fell to his knees. He really wanted to go to the Western Regions and realize his dream on the battlefield!
Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, and Cao Xiong also helped to intercede. They really hoped that Cao Zhang would go on an expedition, so that there would be one less competitor!
"That's all, state affairs are more important than family affairs. No matter how reluctant I am to give up, I can only bear the pain and agree Ziwen is appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Western Expedition Army!"
"No!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)No matter how reluctant I was to give up, I could only bear the pain and agreed Ziwen was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Western Expedition Army! "
