"We still need to inform Cao Sikong about this kind of thing." Zhuge Liang said very calmly. Although the bad things Cao Cao did back then were enough for Zhuge Liang to kill Cao Cao, but in terms of the overall situation of the country, it is not a good thing to harm one's own people.
.
"Although I think Cao Sikong should have received the news, but they are in that place and it is difficult to consider the problem from an overall perspective. I am afraid they are not aware of the overall situation." Chen Xi thought for a while and said.
Chen Xi can trust the abilities of Xun Yu and others. Even if a few of Cao's Five Strategies were poached by Chen Xi, the remaining people are not useless. To put it bluntly, without Xun Yu, Chen Qun would at least be a good match.
Five plans, if you make up the numbers, you can still get five big boss advisers.
It's just that Cao Cao is in a cheating position in the Imperial Cemetery, and transportation and intelligence are a bit difficult. If you look at the problem from Cao Cao's perspective, I'm afraid you can only see that Kushan gave Aldashir a lot of money.
Materials, it is difficult to quickly realize political considerations.
Sometimes, political considerations are even more worthy of analysis than military considerations. After all, war is just an extension of politics.
"Let me send a message to Cao Sikong. The sense of crisis caused by your message will definitely not be as good as mine." Zhuge Liang said calmly.
Everyone looked at each other and said, okay, as long as you are happy, so this matter was left to Zhuge Liang. Although Zhuge Liang and Cao Cao had a personal feud, Zhuge Liang's moral character was still trustworthy and he would not mess up in such official matters.
Come, so I might as well leave it to Zhuge Liang.
Besides, what Zhuge Liang said is very correct. Even if Cao Cao saw the secret report sent by others, he would not feel any sense of crisis. He would only take precautions based on the situation of the secret report. The secret report sent by Zhuge Liang, based on Cao Cao's
If you are suspicious, you need to be more careful.
At noon, Liu Tong ate beef steamed buns. Because a whole cow was used to cook steamed buns, it was considered too strong, so the Political Yuan also ate steamed buns with beef. Everyone was very satisfied, even if it was because Lu Su was not working overtime.
The dazed young people are also very satisfied, and the delicious food really makes people happy.
The secret message was sent to Kandahar using a letter eagle. When the super letter eagle flew over, it was not yet dark in Kandahar. The intelligence personnel received the secret letter and sent it to Chen Gong as soon as possible. It was not that Chen Gong had more power than others.
Chen Gong was the one who had the authority to dismantle Zhuge Liang's secret messages. Who asked Chen Gong to review and assign those people to Zhuge Liang in Congling?
This behavior has continued since then. After Zhuge Liang returned to Chang'an, this letter was always submitted to Chen Gong in line with the old-fashioned attitude. However, Zhuge Liang would not send several secret messages to this person in a year, so
Cao Cao and others didn't think much about it.
"Does Kong Ming have any better ideas? Let me see." Chen Gong opened the envelope while eating naan cakes.
To be honest, Chen Gong and Zhuge Liang are not on the same page when it comes to treating Cao Cao. Chen Gong wants torture, pain and happiness, and Cao Cao can accept it, but after accepting it, his mentality becomes complicated and his blood pressure increases sharply.
, there is no way, and Zhuge Liang is simple, is Cao Cao still alive?
However, due to the current situation, Zhuge Liang cannot take the initiative to kill Cao Cao, so contacting Chen Gong to torture Cao Cao's cerebral blood vessels is the best option at the moment. Therefore, the two of them are currently fighting well together and have successfully done so.
Seeking common ground while reserving differences.
By the way, after these two things join forces, it is basically useless unless Cao's Five Strategies are fully guarding them. However, Cheng Yu, the most determined of Cao's Five Strategies, doesn't even bother to guard Chen Gong, because Chen Gong really wants to
The trouble has already been done.
After all, Chen Gong can be regarded as one of the top people in the world. If he really wants to cause trouble, if he seizes the opportunity, he can make it big. But for such a long time and with so many opportunities, Chen Gong has not done anything.
What really hurt Cao Cao's power?
As for attacking Cao Cao's brain cells, damaging Cao Cao's cerebral blood vessels, severely damaging Cao Cao's spirit, etc., this is not within the scope of Xun Yu and others' considerations. After all, the complex love-hate relationship between Chen Gong and Cao Cao, as they
Everyone who has experienced it knows it.
As long as they don't harm Cao Cao's power, everyone can accept those embarrassing actions. Anyway, Cao Cao is so strong, some mental blows are not fatal, and Chen Gong seems to be very tolerant, controlling it to make Cao Cao's blood pressure
It hits the brain, but it is within the range of not causing dizziness. This is a completely acceptable range in the opinion of Xun Yu and others.
Anyway, as long as you are fine, as for the rest, don't you like it? Besides, doesn't Chen Gong also work hard? I really want to say that it has contributed a lot to Cao Cao's power. This act of venting nature, everyone thought about it,
It's still acceptable. After all, Chen Gong is not a minister of Cao Cao's power. To be honest, Chen Gong's official position is still in Chang'an.
But again, for the top group of people, these things actually have no binding power. Even Chang'an uses these people in an attitude of taking advantage of the situation. Anyway, as long as you don't cheat your own people, what do you want to do?
What are you doing? Anyway, military merit is calculated based on military merit. Just think about it yourself.
If it is ruined, the title will be low, and the heirs will suffer in the future.
Of course, if Li You, Jian Yong, and Sun Qian directly said that they have no heirs, then there is nothing to say. Chen Gong still has a family, wife and children, so he is still struggling to a certain extent.
Chen Gong, who was eating the cake, opened the secret message and glanced at it. He didn't eat the cake anymore. This was a big deal.
As Chen Xi had estimated before, Cao Cao had actually collected part of the information about Vesutiva I supplying a new batch of supplies to Ardashir. After all, Xun Yu, Xun You, Chen Qun and others were not vegetarians.
Earlier, individual items of intelligence were transparent. That was because Chen Gong laid a trap for Cao Cao and directly ate the Beigui original party. It grew rapidly, but the foundation was also a lot frivolous because of this. The overly complicated manpower led to the loss of individual items of intelligence.
.
But with the completion of Xun Yu and Cheng Yu's calculations, all the Kushan spies in Kandahar were almost wiped out.
This is why not long after the arrival of Ardashir, Cao Cao carried out a complete purge and prepared to try to attack Kabul when Ardashir's foothold was unstable. As a result, Kushan broke out that Vesutiva I had married Liu Hao, which was popular among the original party members.
Floating, Cao Cao could only stop and maintain stability.
Then came Chen Gong's disgusting way of dealing with it, which was to send all the middle-level people from Beigui under Cao Cao to Chang'an. The regent, the eldest princess, was the ultimate luxury of your Da Yueshi. Cao Sikong
I decided to send you to open your eyes!
The problem was solved. Cao Cao's face was as blue as if he had frozen to death. Fortunately, he came back to life after taking some medicine. How can I put it, this solution is of course no problem. It completely solved the problem of surrendering and then rebelling, and avoided it.
With the help of Liu Hao, Guishan Zhengtong came to attract sheep, and also solved the possible spy problem.
But the solution is to just say, do you think this is your person? Hey, hey, it’s not, this is Her Royal Highness’s.
Of course, Chen Gong's explanation to Cao Cao was that no matter how much these people admired the eldest princess, the eldest princess couldn't come over when she was in Chang'an. And that salted fish, you don't have to worry about the other party seizing power. You just use the other party's name to pull sheep. This is not
Very good?
You should not be afraid of a salted fish, right? You are a capable minister and a hero in troubled times, Cao Mengde. You must have confidence in yourself!
Cao Cao's brain was throbbing under the attack of Chen Gong's sharp words, but again, the plans that Chen Gong could come up with openly and aboveboard were basically the best plans. Even Xun Yu, Xun You, and Chen Qun
, people like Cheng Yu will agree.
Of course, this does not mean that the above four people are not as good as Chen Gong, but it is more direct. Because these four people are advisers to Cao Cao's forces, certain strategies cannot be used and need to be roundabout. This is also what these four people have for Chen Gong.
The reason why they let their behavior go as they please is that sometimes the best answers they come up with are sometimes unable to be told to Cao Cao.
But Chen Gong is different. Chen Gong doesn't care about this at all. It's the mentality of Cao Cao that I should mess with you. As for whether these four guys use this as a glove, Chen Gong actually doesn't care. It doesn't matter what he likes, as long as he can mess with Cao Cao.
With my mentality, it’s okay to use gloves.
This was also the key to the smooth operation of Cao Cao's forces at that time, because they really could use any strategy. Chen Gong would speak up for certain strategies that Xun Yu and others were not comfortable with, and then Xun Yu and others would comprehensively consider whether to give it to Cao Cao.
Feed chicken soup.
This led to Chen Gong, a civil servant who specialized in torturing Cao Cao, even living very happily under Cao Cao, because everyone is a smart person, and they all know how important it is to have such a wise man who can say anything, so as long as Chen Gong
Even if they don't step on the dead line, Xun Yu and others will even go out of their way to help Chen Gong in certain matters.
As for Cao Cao's cerebral blood vessels, they should be regarded as sacrifices made for hegemony.
"It's rare that Gongtai is here at this time." Chen Qun looked up and saw Chen Gong and said. He and Chen Gong had no conflicts. Even because they couldn't write two Chens in one sentence, the two of them talked privately.
The relationship is pretty good.
"Are you on duty today?" Chen Gong looked around and asked.
"Well, I'll be on duty and calculate the balance at the end of the year. This year's situation is really good." Chen Qun said with a smile, and then pushed his calculations to Chen Gong and said.
Throughout this year, Cao Cao did not launch a single war. He even stopped small-scale operations. He has been strictly defending the fortress on the upper reaches of the Helmand River. Ardashir, who is in Kabul, has also been silent.
In the chaos of the early third century, the Imperial Cemetery entered a rare period of calm.
There was no other way. Cao Cao had sent all the middle-level people in Beigui to Chang'an, even the soldiers. Ardashir was new to Kabul. He also needed to win over the people, adjust the military structure, and prepare for the next step. Both sides
They are all in the stage of catching their breath, so everything is fine for the whole year.
Cao Cao has no way to fight, so he can only engage in construction. The water network construction plan near the Helmand River near Kandahar has also achieved rough results. Hundreds of thousands of acres of farmland have been developed. The logistical pressure on Cao Cao's forces was instantly relieved.
Coupled with a full year's rest period, Xun Yu and Chen Qun were able to carefully complete the Bei-Gui Party's original purpose of organizing households and people, and completely entered the stage of Chineseization.
It can be said that the war has stopped this year, but the growth of Cao Cao's power has not slowed down at all. In fact, while the growth rate is faster than before, it has also laid a solid foundation. It is basically impossible for Cao Cao to be as big as before.
The Yueshi surrendered and then rebelled again.
For this reason, after the middle-level officials sent to Chang'an returned one after another, Cao Cao had actively begun to prepare for war. Herat was picked up, Kandahar was the betrothal gift, and Kabul was the last key point in the imperial cemetery, so he had no choice but to fight.
, and what happened before is also a warning to Cao Cao - pie in the sky can easily lead to accidents, and if you want to maintain a stable position, you must rely on strength.
Therefore, in the Kabul Valley, Cao Cao chose to fight head-on and win it by himself. Only by winning in this way can he prove that Cao Cao is qualified to sit firmly.
"This year looks like a bumper harvest!" Chen Gong took a look at the data. Since Chen Qun had almost simplified it, Chen Gong quickly calculated the approximate total.
"The people of the Li family and the Wang family are really good at water network structure. Now the main road has basically been completed, and the rest are tributaries." Chen Qun said with some respect, let alone this year, even if it is a thousand years old.
After that, those who did well in water conservancy projects had amulets.
"Here, this is the secret report from Chang'an." Chen Gong handed the secret report to Chen Qun.
Chen Qun didn't ask where it came from. After taking it, he looked at it and frowned slightly. "This is consistent with our intelligence. We were still thinking about why Vesutiva I would transport it to Ardashir again."
Materials of this scale originally have their roots here.”
"I think we can try to storm Kabul when Ardashir goes to attend the wedding. Even if Ardashir is ready and will come back on the day of the wedding banquet, we can try. Even if we can't defeat it, we can still
Destroy the defense facilities in Kabul." Chen Gong directly gave his suggestion.
"Small attacks are useless, just a big one will do. Besides, Kabul is not easy to fight. As long as you are prepared, the terrain advantage is too obvious." Chen Qun sighed and said. They have been studying how to attack Kabul recently. As a result, the results are getting better and better.
The more I researched, I felt that I had to face the unfavorable terrain head-on, because there really were no good options here.
"Then investigate carefully and prepare for a big fight." Chen Gong said with sharp eyes, "This opportunity cannot be missed."
"That's no problem." Chen Qun nodded. Of course he would not miss this opportunity. "But don't rush it. Just report tomorrow. Speaking of which, Zichu has been leading everyone to make money recently. Do you want to participate too?"
?”
"Making money?" Chen Gong asked in confusion. He and Liu Ba were not familiar with each other. Although they had seen each other many times, they had different views.
I won’t discuss Herat, Kandahar, and Kabul. They have been fought for more than 3,000 years, and the Taliban also fought in this way. I guess no one thinks that I am wrong in fighting this way. I have studied the map of the Imperial Cemetery for a long time.
, and finally found out that there was really only one way to play. I sighed, and I couldn’t understand how Yadi got through it at all.
