Yang Yi came on behalf of Guan Yu. The Jiangling where Guan Yu was stationed was Cao Cao in the north and Sun Quan in the east. He was always facing an extremely complex military and political situation and could not tolerate Guan Yu to travel to Chengdu calmly. Therefore, Guan Yu sent his subordinate Gong Cao to come.
With Yang Yi's position, he is far from qualified to attend such a meeting. At this meeting, he only needs to listen quietly and truthfully convey the decision of the center to Guan Yu after the meeting.
No one expected that Yang Yi didn't even have the patience to wait for Zhuge Liang to start the show, and he just jumped out of his words. He didn't expect that Yang Yi would say that the problem that the center repeatedly weighed and thought about during the past few days actually did not exist at all.
As soon as Yang Yi finished speaking, he caused a tall man in the civil servant to scold him sternly: "Absurd!"
This person is on the top of Yang Yi, with a handsome appearance and a very heroic demeanor. Yang Yi glanced at him with a slant. Although he didn't know the identity of this person, he did not dare to act rashly. So he said coldly: "Who is the one who is under you? Where is the absurdity?"
"I am Peng Yongnian, the governor of Yizhou!" The man stood up and stood in the hall: "King, lords, I have a few words to say."
It turns out that this lord is Peng Li.
When Duke Xuande was promoted to King Hanzhong, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong were appointed as military advisors and generals, and also appointed Fa Zheng as the Shangshu Order. These three people had the most real power in the central government system. In the local government system, although there was no state governor under the King of Hanzhong, they still retained their original pastoral prefectures of Jingyi and were responsible for the Hanzhong Palace.
In Jingzhou, Pan Jun was engaged in the Zhizhong, while in Yizhou, Peng Ye was engaged in the Zhizhong of Yizhou.
When Lei Yuan was in Jiaozhou, he heard that Peng Yongnian was a disciple of Liu Zhang in his early years. Later, he was recommended by Pang Tong and Fa Zheng to serve as King Hanzhong. The King of Hanzhong ordered Peng Xuan to promote military affairs and command all generals. He was satisfied with the envoys, so he knew that he had received more than a few years. In just a few years, he became an important official in Yizhou.
It seems that this gentleman has the same temper as Yang Yi, both of whom are arrogant and have a strong desire to express themselves.
Lei Yuan couldn't help but look at Zhuge Liang opposite him, and saw Zhuge Liang put the files in front of him neatly and said gently: "Yongnian has something to say, just say it."
"In recent years, Cao Cao has gradually granted the power to his sons, so that they can each gain strength and take charge of military affairs. Among them, Cao Pi is the deputy prime minister, the general of the five-staff general, and the general of the military affairs of Guanxi, and Cao Hong, Xiahou Shang, Zhong Yao, Guo Huai, Zhao Yan and others are the auxiliary. Cao Zhang is the general of the cavalry and commands tens of thousands of elite soldiers in Xudu. With Cao Xiu as his deputy, he gradually takes over the court officials of Xudu. Cao Zhi is the new general of the Southern Central Army, and is equipped with Ding Yi, Ding Yi, Yang Jun and the scholars of Yexia as his wife. Recently, he often attends the ceremony on behalf of Cao Cao and arranges the daily affairs of Yecheng."
彭羕环顾诸人,朗声问道:“以曹操的明智,何以如此?”
Everyone did not answer, and Liu Bei tapped the desk with his finger: "Yongnian continued to talk."
"The reason for this is nothing more than two reasons. First, after Cao Cao's failures in Chibi, Hanzhong, and Jiangling several times, his desire to unify the world gradually faded, and his intention to usurpate the Han Dynasty gradually became fierce. This move naturally made Nigigata feel mourned, and the world was raging, which made Cao Cao even more suspicious and disbelief of ministers. Also, because Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren and other relatives died in battle, the number of people available in the Cao clan was short of a moment, so Cao Cao had to grant the three sons the power to usurp the Han and seize the throne."
Speaking of this, he bowed to Liu Bei and raised his voice and said, "There are two, of course, because Cao Cao knew that his age was about to end, so he was eager to understand. If he passed away, who among the sects could be the opponent of the king! He was eager to make all sects have room to display and to see their performance with his own eyes!"
Yang Yi sneered: "You said so much, it's all nonsense! The three brothers are fierce and rebellious. Of course, no one is the opponent of the king. But when Cao Cao died, they were destroyed one after another. We ordered our troops to Jingyi and watched those private parties who had been together for several years go by and defeated, and then safely marched into Heluo. Isn't it easier? It's like Yuan Cao..."
"Mr. Wei, you are wrong." Peng Xian said bluntly: "When you kept saying that Yuan and Cao were fighting, you never thought that the current situation was not the same as when Yuan and Cao fought. On that day, Yuan and Cao were confronting each other across the river, and no third force could intervene. But now? I ask you, if the Central Plains is indeed turbulent, we wait and see the situation as Wei Gong said, while Sun Quan led his troops to plunder Jianghuai and even Qingxu, and Ma Chao rushed his troops into Guanzhong...what should we do?"
Yang Yi was stunned.
Several people in the hall whispered.
Lei Yuan nodded.
No wonder it was so mobilized to summon important officials to discuss it. This decision was indeed difficult.
The Cao family was a traitor who was incompatible with the King of Hanzhong. The two sides had been fighting for many years. No matter what the situation of the Cao family, the King of Hanzhong and them could only fight fiercely.
But now, is Cao Cao sick? How much does he have to? How much will his condition weaken the Cao regime? If this weakening is limited, the King of Hanzhong will continue to encircle the alliance against Cao and restore the Han Dynasty and maintain the situation of the world's efforts to fight against it. But if the Cao regime will fall into chaos due to Cao Cao's illness or death...
The so-called anti-Cao and Fuhan alliance has no foundation. Sun Quan and Ma Chao will both impatiently tear the flesh and blood from the Cao regime to make themselves rich. There is no doubt that when their power expands to a certain extent, they will become the enemy of King Hanzhong.
Without looking at the map, everyone knows in their hearts that if Ma Chao's troops enter Guanzhong in large numbers, it will be a big obstacle to the subsequent development of Hanzhong; and if Sun Quan controls Jianghuai and other places, it will be enough to reach out to Yan, Yu, Qingxu and other places to block the flanks of Jingzhou's northward journey.
Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to observe the changes in the situation. When the Cao family shows signs of decline, the King of Hanzhong must act immediately. Only in this way can we ensure that our side seize the greatest interests of the Cao family regime and ensure that our side has the advantage over Sun Quan and Ma Chao.
But in this process, what extent should our side do? Is it possible to negotiate with Sun Quan and Ma Chao again to slightly limit Sun Quan and Ma Chao's ambitions? Is it necessary to continue to maintain the alliance until it can no longer be maintained? If not, would it be hesitant to break the alliance with Sun Quan and Ma Chao for this and start a full war? With the strength of the Hanzhong King regime, can the consequences of forming enemies on three sides?
All of these are closely related to the major policies, and they seem to be a mess, with complexity and impossible to solve. This is the problem that the central ministers cannot resolve repeatedly.
At this time, Yang Yi also figured it out. He subconsciously looked at Duke Xuande, Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong and others sitting in the upper head, and his face turned red instantly.
He was a smart person. What he thought before was because he was in Jingzhou, his vision was inevitably restricted. At this moment, Peng Yi mentioned it and he reacted. But if he wanted to admit that he had thought wrong in public, he would never want to lose face.
When Peng Wei saw Yang Yi being frustrated, he smiled at the sky and turned around and returned to the table to sit down.
This move made Lei Yuan stunned, thinking that after a long discussion, he would have a strategy to deal with it; it turned out that he had not, but he just blocked Yang Yi's mouth and was satisfied.
Lei Yuan's expression attracted Zhuge Liang's attention.
"What do Xu Zhike have any ideas?"
Lei Yuan felt that Zhuge Liang was probably trying to get another topic to relieve the embarrassment in the classroom. So he helped the desk and bowed a little.
Just as I was about to speak, the door of the water pavilion was suddenly pushed open.
Chen Dao led a military officer in to step in.
Chen Dao was a relative of the King of Hanzhong, and was definitely not a person who was ignorant of the importance of the matter. There must be a reason for him to do this! Lei Yuan's first thought was that something happened in the Central Plains!
Chen Dao walked straight to Xuande Gong and said in a low and hurried manner: "King, Guanzhong has changed. General Yide sent a military officer to report to him for eight hundred miles."
The water pavilion was not big, and everyone heard what he said. The atmosphere in the water pavilion, which was originally step-by-step, was immediately replaced by nervous solemnity. Everyone sat upright in an instant, concentrating all their energy.
Liu Bei nodded to the military officer behind Chen Dao and said briefly: "Thank you for your hard work, let's talk about it."
The military officer was covered in dust, and the Han River flowed across his face, black and gray. He took the letter behind him and held it in his hands. He said, "Three days ago, Cao Pi raised tens of thousands of troops eastward and drove straight to Tongguan."
The news is too amazing.
