One hundred and nineteenth chapter ghost tire secret knot
In front of Sishui Pass, Sun Jian was not defeated by Hua Xiong, but was defeated by Xu Rong in Liangdong.
It once again proved that modern TV movies and some books are all nonsense. The real Li Shi was not like this at all. But fortunately, with the previous blows, Cao Zhi already had a certain immunity and did not faint this time.
fall.
Cao Zhi was murmuring in his heart and took the time to look at Liu Bei again. Liu Bei sat there expressionlessly. No matter how disdainful some of his colleagues around him looked, he acted as if nothing was wrong. He looked at his nose, his nose and his heart, sitting upright.
Wen is not angry.
Cao Zhi secretly felt vigilant, this person should not be underestimated. Although he has a crooked appearance, he has such self-cultivation that very few people can achieve.
Gongsun Zan felt so happy to meet a young man like Cao Zhi today, and immediately ordered a banquet to be prepared. Gongsun Zan invited Cao Zhi to join them in the banquet.
Only then did Cao Zhi realize that after all this rambling, the sun was approaching noon and it was time for lunch.
Gongsun Zan invited Cao Zhi to have a banquet with him. Cao Zhi also wanted to ask Gongsun Zan a lot of things, so he agreed with a few polite words. Cao Zhi found that he was becoming more and more sociable, and he met a group of people who had only known each other for half a day in Gongsun Zan's camp.
Gongsun Zan's younger brothers Gongsun Yue and Gongsun Fan and his brothers Liu Weitai, Li Yizi, Le Hedang and other staff got along well with each other. The brothers and sisters encouraged each other to drink, and the guests and hosts in the big tent were all having a good time.
After a few glasses of wine, Gongsun Zan became even more talkative and talked about everything. He almost regarded Cao Zhi as his nephew.
While the wine was in full swing, Cao Zhi, as a junior, asked Gongsun Zan humbly: "Uncle Gongsun, now that the rebel armies of the Kwantung Alliance are gathering jujubes, what do you think will happen next?"
Gongsun Zan's face was startled, he sobered up a bit, and said to Cao Zhi: "Although Dong Zhuo was defeated and retreated to Chang'an, his elite troops are still there. He has also forcibly moved all the people and finances in Luoyang, and he has sufficient food and grass. He will not get any benefits by attacking rashly."
After Gongsun Zan finished speaking, he burped from wine. He looked sideways at Cao Zhi with questions written all over his face. He patted Cao Zhi on the shoulder and said arrogantly: "If you don't believe me, my dear nephew, don't forget your elder brother's lesson and act young."
Sheng's problem, don't look at our current Kwantung Rebel Army, which has hundreds of thousands of soldiers here. In fact, it is a group of reckless men who improvised. The generals in each department are all secretly thinking about their own thoughts and calculating their own interests.
, initially they rushed to Luoyang with all their might, but the victory was because they still had momentum. When they arrived in Luoyang, these people found out that they had been tricked by Dong Zhuo, and nothing was left in Luoyang. Hundreds of thousands of people who stayed there would starve to death sooner or later, otherwise we wouldn’t have taken it.
The camp moved to this jujube, but now there is not much rations left in this jujube, and it can only last for half a year at most. So, my dear nephew, it may be difficult for you to expect the rebels to send troops to attack Chang'an again. Besides, your eldest brother is here this time.
Once Xingyang suffers a setback, it will be impossible to persuade those fearful people to send troops."
While speaking, Gongsun Zan kept paying attention to the change in Cao Zhi's face. After speaking, he saw Cao Zhi holding up the wine bottle and began to ponder. He laughed and said, "Don't be anxious. You are still young. There will be more opportunities to make contributions in the future. Don't rush now."
"Yes, that's what uncle taught me." In fact, Cao Zhi already had his own thoughts, which was to count on the Kwantung Rebel Army to attack Chang'an. Cao Zhi at least knew the direction of history. Although some small details are now found to be a bit subversive, the general direction
There shouldn't be much change, otherwise "Luo Guanzhong" would have been scolded to death long ago.
Now all the Kwantung Allied Forces are stationed in Suanzao. No one has left, but no one is willing to charge into the battle. Everyone is waiting and watching.
Let's wait and see who will test first. Cao Cao has already taken the lead and returned in defeat. These people took Cao Cao's defeat as a warning and did not move.
Besides, these people are not very good. Gongsun Zan is an outspoken person. If he doesn't like it, he will say it. Starting from Yuan Shao, he will judge all the commanders of the army. In this way, Cao Zhi saved a lot of effort.
Come and get to know these dozens of rebels.
From Gongsun Zan’s subsequent conversation, Cao Zhi learned about many rebel generals whom he had never met before. For example, Kong Niao was a talkative person. Gongsun Zan described him as “a man who boasts about life”, that is, he can talk about the dead as if they are alive.
Talking about the living as dead, anyway, he is good at talking, but unfortunately he can't do it. Another example is Jizhou Mu Han Fu, who didn't pay attention. Cao Zhi knows something about this, and it won't be long before Yuan Shao will notice it.
Han Fu clicked, and then he became the shepherd of Jizhou.
When talking about Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu brothers, Gongsun Zan seems to be quite critical. Gongsun Zan can't stand Yuan Shao's arrogant attitude. He is also the oldest general in the rebel army, but Yuan Shao doesn't respect him very much, and he tells him whether he is old or young.
They don't regard him as an elder at all. There is also Yuan Shu. With his brother Yuan Shao as the leader of the alliance, he is even more arrogant and acts indulgently. Yuan Shu is in charge of money and food in the rebel army. Every time Gongsun Zan's generals go to collect food and grass as usual, Yuan Shu always
He made Gongsun Zan very angry by making things difficult for him.
Gongsun Zan was probably too drunk and kept criticizing the Yuan brothers. His younger brother Gongsun Yue kept winking at Gongsun Zan and told him to stop. After all, it is well known that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are close friends, but Gongsun Zan is
Turn a blind eye.
Later, Gongsun couldn't bear it any longer and interjected: "Brother knows about money and food, money and food, hey! When you get older, you have to calculate materials, rice, oil and salt every day. Leader Yuan also has difficulties, hehe! Nephew Cao Xian, don't be surprised!
"Gongsun Yue also spoke very learnedly. The first half of the sentence seemed to be blaming his brother, but in fact the whole sentence was meant for Cao Zhi.
I don’t know whether Gongsun Yue’s words had an effect or aroused Gongsun Zan’s interest in this topic. As soon as the topic turned to money and food, it aroused even more emotion from Gongsun Zan. He could only hear his complaint: “It’s all Dong Zhuo’s fault.
Dan, he actually swept Luoyang away. I originally thought that Luoyang was rich. As long as Luoyang was captured, the food problem should not be difficult to solve. According to my conservative estimate, Luoyang's grain reserves should be enough for me to wait for hundreds of thousands of people in twenty years.
There was so much gold, jade, colored silk, pearls, and quills that could not be used up during the year. Dong Zhuo, a thief, was not afraid of choking to death, so he swept them all away and moved them to Chang'an. It was a pity that all the treasures in the palace were lost.
"Bao, if you keep some of it, I won't have to look at the Yuan family's children's faces anymore, huh! It's really annoying."
When he talked about the rare treasures that Dong Zhuo had collected, Gongsun Zan was very excited when he talked about it, and the people below were also excited when they heard it. Yes! Every war is for the purpose of obtaining something. This is also true in modern times, and even more so in ancient times.
, now each of these dozens of warlords maintain an army ranging from ten thousand to tens of thousands. Many of them, like Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, are in the early stages of their careers. Their demand for money and food is huge, so the best source of money is
The best way is, of course, to possess. Possessing what others have and taking what others have is the fastest way and the most effective way.
Ancient people understood this truth, and Cao Zhi, as a modern man, is even more aware of its taste. When Gongsun Zan mentioned that Dong Zhuo had emptied Luoyang's financial resources, he felt inexplicably agitated in his heart, but was quickly suppressed by his own reality. Cao Zhi and Cao Cao
How many troops are there now? The hundreds of thousands of Kwantung Rebels can't do anything to Dong Zhuo. What can Cao Zhi's three thousand troops do?
Cao Zhi, who was shaking his head to get rid of the unrealistic thoughts in his mind, accidentally looked up and saw the greedy and confused look in the eyes of Liu Bei, who was still sitting in the second to last seat, and his eyes were quite blurry.
