609. On the general trend
Jia Xu Fu Xu continued to talk;
"Although Cao Mengde was a eunuch, he was talented and far-sighted. Since Duke Cao welcomed the emperor into the court and worshiped the prime minister, he has established his own power. In the land of the Central Plains, the emperor has commanded the princes. With great righteousness in hand, he has pacified the four fields and gathered thousands of troops. Although there are enemies on all sides, there is no greater enemy than Yuan Shao, there will definitely be a fight!"
Jia Xu stopped talking at this point and had no intention of continuing;
Liu Hao didn't take it seriously either. From Jia Xu's comments about Cao Cao, we can see that his intentions were clear and his heart was full of surrender to Cao Cao.
Although these words are objective, their inner strength is to praise Cao Cao;
After becoming an eunuch, it was a matter of birth and he could not make the decision, but it also showed that Cao Cao's achievements were his own, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a talented man and has great strategies;
He said that Cao Cao had a long-term vision, and then called Cao Cao "Cao Gong". This was something that Yuan Benchu ??did not comment on before. It was an honorific title, and it also showed that Jia Xu was very optimistic about Cao Cao welcoming Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty;
The official worship of the prime minister also shows that Cao Cao's ambition is exposed and his desire to conquer the world is clearly revealed. For the civil servants and generals who follow Cao Cao to conquer the world, they have more expectations, and their desire to die for him is stronger. They occupy the righteousness and the morale of the soldiers is restored. Gao has greatly narrowed the gap between him and Yuan Benchu. The outcome of this battle is unpredictable.
"Brother Wenhe, I see you also think Cao Mengde can win, but how long does Brother Wenhe think it will take for Cao Mengde to stabilize the north?"
Liu Hao affirmed Jia Xu's judgment in an understatement, and then asked another question;
This made Jia Xu slightly uncomfortable. Originally, he thought Liu Hao would discuss it with him, but he didn't know that he had the same idea as him and was optimistic about Cao Cao, even more optimistic than him. This made him even more strange about Liu Hao's origins. stand up;
Jia Xu could tell that Liu Hao didn't have much hatred for Cao Cao, and even had some respect for him. As a person with the surname Liu, he actually had some respect for Cao Cao, a powerful official who used the emperor to control the princes. This made Jia Xu a little confused. He could see at a glance that Liu Hao had a majestic appearance and could only be a member of the royal family. Now, he was a little doubtful.
However, Jia Xu didn¡¯t have much time to think about this now. Liu Hao¡¯s question made him think deeply. Assuming that Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao, how long would it take to eliminate Yuan Shao? After it is eliminated, how long will it take to stabilize the north?
Jia Xu did not consider this issue in detail in the past. The current battle between Cao and Yuan has not yet begun, and the outcome is unpredictable. How could he think so much about it?
Now after thinking about it, I found the deeper meaning and understood that Liu Hao was asking Cao Mengde how long it would take to unify the country.
"If Duke Cao wins, it will take seven to ten years to stabilize the north!"
Liu Hao nodded. Jia Xu's deduction was very accurate. Seven years later, Cao Cao annexed Yuan Shao's territory and cleaned up Yuan Shao's remaining forces. Jia Xu said that in 7-10 years, the troublemaking situation of the nomadic people in the north was fully considered, leaving out for three years to prepare for unexpected situations.
"We assume that Cao Mengde will unify the north within 7 years; by then, Cao Mengde will face Liaodong Gongsun, Jiangdong Sun family, Northwest Mahan, Shuzhong Liu Zhang, Jingzhou Liu Biao, Jiaozhou Shixie; Brother Wenhe believes that he can unify the world in his lifetime. ?"
Jia Xu picked up the wine glass and took a sip, his thoughts racing;
The bitter cold in Liaodong means that less than half of the days in a year can be fought. If you can't kill with one blow, it will take a long time. Although it is not a threat, it is not easy.
Mahan in the northwest is easy to defeat, but difficult to capture. It will not be completed in two or three years, and it will be difficult to stabilize it by then;
Jingzhou Liu Biao, soldiers and horses are not a concern, and the family can easily make a choice, which makes it the easiest place to win. However, it will take a lot of effort to clean up the remnants in the future; and although there is a feud with him, Jiangdong will definitely unite with Jingzhou when the time comes, and there will be many surprises;
The southernmost Jiaozhou Shixie can wait and advance slowly, not in a hurry;
Liu Zhang in Shu is weak, as evidenced by Zhang Lu's self-reliance in Hanzhong. However, Bashu is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the land is dangerous. Liu Zhang, who is weak, has become the biggest obstacle. The guarding dog will definitely become the hardest bone to chew.
The most important point is that Cao Cao captured the north seven years later and stabilized his territory. It also required a period of wealth accumulation. A warlike spirit will lead to death. Jia Xu understood that if he followed his idea and waited for another year to fight again, he would advance slowly. After ten years, it should be almost done.
Jia Xu raised his head and was about to answer when he saw Liu Hao opening his mouth and saying;
"Brother Wenhe thinks that with Cao Mengde's power, he can endure a few years of development before taking action?"
Jia Xu was stunned for a moment after hearing this, with a slight wry smile on his face. At that time, Duke Cao would definitely have a hard time admonishing and judging the temper of the north.What will happen to the original population of hundreds and hundreds?
Without any need to think about it, Jia Xu knew that the Han people would be threatened with annihilation by then.
The Han Dynasty has a strong national spirit. Chen Tang said: Anyone who offends the Han Dynasty will be punished no matter how far away it is! It aroused great pride among the people, and gave the descendants of Yan and Huang an additional title of ¡®Han¡¯.
As a Han Chinese, Jia Xu never wanted to see this kind of situation happen. When he was thinking about it, he suddenly realized that if Liu Hao in front of him could say such words, he would definitely not think about taking Jingzhou and Bashu. Then, the other party would Why are you here?
Jia Xu is good at seeing through people's hearts. In the Three Kingdoms of Gods and Demons, this is an innate skill. Jia Xu, a saint, can see through monks of a lower rank than him at a glance. Combined with this innate skill, counselors with lower intelligence than Jia Xu will be able to see through them even if the opponent is a saint. Regardless of his level of cultivation, it is difficult to escape Jia Xu's speculation, which is why every one of his strategies is sure to hit the mark.
Facing Liu Hao, who was also a saint, it was the first time they met, and he had never heard of it before. This made it impossible for him to see through Liu Hao's thoughts, and there was no way to guess. He could only deal with it with his own IQ.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUTOUT out of the gate, I still can't guess the meaning of Liu Hao's visit.
Seeing that Jia Xu was deep in thought, Liu Hao changed the subject.
"Brother Wenhe, the grassland has been suffering for a long time. Is there a long-term solution?"
Jia Xu¡¯s eyes narrowed slightly. As a poisonous warrior, Jia Xu¡¯s first thought was to kill until the grassland was frightened. But he immediately realized that this could only last for a while. After one or two generations, the grassland disaster would happen again.
Jia Xu really has never thought about killing them all. It's not that he doesn't want to, but that he can't do it. The grassland is so big. As a nomadic people, he has no fixed place and can live wherever he goes. Even an endless army can't do it. Destroying the pasture along the way can only force some of them to fight decisively.
"Garrisoning troops," Jia Xu only flashed through his mind. It was too difficult, and it could be said that it was almost impossible.
One is that the cost of supplying food is too high. Everything has two sides. The gods and demons of the Three Kingdoms have become demons. It is easier to transport food and grass, but the army also eats more. This makes food production and transportation the same. It was a problem in the Three Kingdoms era.
"Garrisoning troops on the grassland is useless if we have fewer troops, and we cannot afford more troops. We worry that over time, these troops will have other ideas, which will make it even more difficult."
After much thought, he came up with a solution that was not a solution, which was to let the border garrison learn the habit of plowing grass and valleys on the grasslands. When the climate was suitable, they would dispatch cavalry troops to the grasslands to counterattack the nomads' grass valleys. The initial investment and losses would probably be huge. Some, but over time, the garrison became familiar with the situation, and as a supplier, it had a huge advantage. By that time, after the spring began, the nomads no longer thought about robbery, but defense.
Over several generations, not only can the habit of garrisoning troops on the border be completely changed, but it will also enhance the strength of the border.
The only problem is how to ensure the alienation of these border troops. If this is not eliminated, it is impossible to get the support of the court. When any emperor is in power, what he thinks most about is not the safety of the people, but his own butt. If this hidden danger is not eliminated, this method will become a fantasy.
Jia Xu's answer surprised Liu Hao. Substituting offense for defense has a long-term effect. Over time, it has become a routine. Not to mention completely solving the hidden dangers, but it is almost there. From now on, the grassland nomads are likely to Instead of rampantly talking about the fragility of the Han people, they are frightening the terror of the Han people.
"Brother Wenhe, if we go to the grassland to capture slaves, will there be anyone who will buy them?"
Jia Xu¡¯s eyes lit up. He had no sense of benevolence, righteousness or morality. The rotten Confucianism had nothing to do with him. Jia Xu was a typical person who only looked at results.
Will anyone buy a slave from the grassland? There must be some. They may not be good at plowing, but they are quite strong, and they are even more professional in herding. The demand for such slaves in the north is not small. As for the south, there may be less, but it is not impossible to buy them to do heavy work. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
