Jizhou, Yecheng, in the study room of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Cao Cao is reading a letter from Tian Chou.
In Tian Chou's letter, he first reported on the situation in the counties of Youzhou, and then explained how Lu Bu had begun to gradually take over the defense of Youzhou.
Now Lu Bu's military focus has gradually shifted from Qingzhou to Youzhou. After all, there are no hostile forces around Qingzhou.
However, Lu Bu only had troops stationed in Youzhou, so Tian Chou's position as governor of Youzhou would not change, while Chen Gonglai would serve as governor of Qingzhou.
Lu Bu's roots are still in Qingzhou. After all, the aristocratic families who followed him and Chen Gong have already established their roots in Qingzhou, and they are reluctant to follow Lu Bu to the more turbulent Youzhou near the frontier. It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
nature, let alone these aristocratic families.
Therefore, after Lu Bu discussed with Chen Gong, he simply went to Youzhou with only his subordinates and army, accepted the position of governor of Youzhou, and governor of the six counties of Youzhou.
With Lu Bu's troops stationed, Cao's troops who originally guarded Youzhou began to evacuate one after another. In addition to the local defenders, generals such as Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Tai Shici, etc. also began to lead their troops and retreat.
Central Plains.
However, the spies sent by Tian Chou reported back that at the critical moment when armies from various parts of Youzhou were handing over defense, the Xianbei clan in the northern grasslands began to make movements.
Just when Cao Cao was reading the letter, Cao Ang walked in.
Cao Cao raised his head and looked at Cao Ang and said, "Sit down..."
"Thank you, father."
After Cao Ang sat down upright, Cao Cao continued: "Tian Chou sent a letter, saying that all the Xianbei tribes in the northern part of the Great Wall have gathered in the central Xianbei territory, and there is quite a trend of joining forces and forming an alliance."
Cao Ang frowned when he heard this and said: "Ke Bineng, the leader of the central Xianbei, is an ambitious and capable guy... He summoned the leaders of the Xianbei tribes to form an alliance. I'm afraid he has some ideas about my big man."
Listening to Cao Ang's analysis, Cao Cao nodded slightly and said: "Continue."
"Youzhou is at a critical moment of handover of forces. If the Xianbei alliance succeeds and moves south in a large scale, the houses in Youzhou will be in chaos, which may be a bit dangerous."
"What can you do to deal with it?" Cao Cao wanted to take the school test.
But Cao Ang said this: "The soldiers will block it, and the water will cover it!"
"You have been with Lu Yan for so long and this is all you have learned?" Cao Cao seemed a little dissatisfied.
"Father, don't be anxious, please listen to what the child has to say." But Cao Ang took the time to explain: "The child thinks that it would be a good thing if Xianbei mobilized the entire clan to attack...
We can pretend to be invincible due to defensive chaos, and take advantage of the situation to lure the main force of Xianbei into our army's ambush.
With such magical weapons as cannons, destroying their vitality is like slaughtering pigs and dogs."
When Cao Ang said this, he seemed to be frightened by the power of the cannon. After a pause, he continued:
"After wiping out the main forces of the Xianbei tribes, our army can join forces with Jihou (Lü Bu)'s cavalry to march straight into the Xianbei territory, kill the remaining Xianbei troops, plunder its population, and finally implement the strategy proposed by the teacher, national integration!"
"It's okay..." Cao Cao thought for a moment and felt that Cao Ang's strategy was bold but showed calmness, "It seems that Ang'er has really grown up!"
Cao Cao was greatly relieved, but he still said calmly: "Since you have a countermeasure in mind, I will leave Xianbei in the north to you."
"Here! The child will definitely live up to his father's great hope!" Cao Ang finally waited for the opportunity to lead the army alone. His voice was trembling with excitement.
In fact, Lu Yan has already begun to use the strategy of national integration, and the three counties of Wuhuan have now begun the process of integration.
The history of China is actually a history of great national integration.
Unfortunately, the Han people were passive in integrating with other ethnic groups. They were all invaded by various ethnic groups outside the Great Wall and assimilated them with their own culture.
That kind of integration method is not acceptable to Lu Yan or Cao Ang now, because that kind of integration is often accompanied by the blood and tears of the Han people. Now that we want to take the initiative to engage in national integration, it is natural that the Han people should take the lead. Those who read the books of sages are full of words.
Masters who are benevolent, righteous and moral have their place now.
The task of civilizing the people of Wuhuan in the three counties has just begun, and then we must start to civilize the people of Xianbei.
"If this matter can be successful, it will be a disguised way to leave a name in history for those rotten scholars described by these teachers..." Cao Ang couldn't help but joke in his heart.
Cao Cao saw that Cao Ang seemed to have something to say, so he asked: "If you want to say it all at once, don't be like Lu Changsheng who always talks in half and makes people nervous."
"It seems that this habit of sir has been criticized by many people..." Cao Ang felt a little funny in his heart, but still maintained the most basic composure and replied: "Here."
After considering his words, Cao Ang continued: "Father, I have been thinking about why foreigners always want to invade my great Han."
"Well...continue."
"My Han Dynasty is prosperous and beautiful, and the people can obtain food and clothing through farming; they can also engage in construction and production to make themselves rich. However, it is bitterly cold outside the Great Wall, and the only way to survive is grazing. Once the weather is extremely cold...
Who would want to move around if they could have a stable and prosperous place to live?"
Cao Cao picked up the tea cup at hand and took a sip, then said: "Yes, you can think of this, it is quite warm."
"Thank you for the compliment, father." Cao Ang cupped his hands and thanked him, and then continued: "In the child's view, the teacher's national integration strategy is not only relatively mild and will not attract too much criticism; it can also solve the problem of alien races once and for all, and increase the number of our
The population of the Han Dynasty has rapidly increased our strength."
"But Mr. Lu also said that people who are not of my race will have different minds." Cao Cao interrupted abruptly.
Cao Ang nodded, grinned and said: "This is the key to active integration...The key to integration of culture, habits, customs is to assimilate their thoughts and make them think that they are also members of the Han nation from the bottom of their hearts! Let them
I am proud to be a member of the Han people, feel proud, and feel the supreme honor!!!"
Cao Cao paused, as if he saw a trace of Lu Yan in Cao Ang, and said happily: "Very good, it seems that you and Mr. Lu have learned a lot..."
"Sir, your knowledge is as vast as the deep sea, and your wisdom is as vast as the stars. What a child can learn is far less than what is expected." Cao Ang said modestly.
"Then Lu Yan is not a mortal, it would be great if you could learn from it." Cao Cao was so proud that he let something slip.
But fortunately, Cao Ang didn't think about anything else. He just thought that it was Cao Cao's high praise for Lu Yan.
The father and son were silent for a long time, and Cao Cao suddenly said: "You have matured, and your brothers have grown up. I am very happy that you can love and care for your brothers. I hope you can maintain your original intention as always."
"Children remember their father's teachings in their hearts."
"Rebellion has broken out in Xiliang. If Xianbei attacks Youzhou again, there will be changes in the south.
The main force of our army should be focused on dealing with Liu Biao and Sun Quan, so we can only rely on you and Lu Fengxian in the north for the time being. If you have any problems, you can go to Tian Chou for help; if you have any difficulties again, just go to Mr. Lu."
Cao Ang responded respectfully: "I understand, kid!"
After Cao Ang finished speaking, Cao Cao suddenly said: "I will ask Wen Chang, Zihe and Wen Lie to help you.
Wei Wenchang is both brave and brave. You should listen to his advice more.
That’s it for today, you go and deal with today’s case files first.”
"Thank you, father!" Cao Ang gratefully bowed to Cao Cao with fists, and then respectfully withdrew.
