"Zhongda, you haven't answered me yet. Is Zhang Song here to offer sacrifices to Yizhou?" Gao Shun saw that Sima Yi had not responded, so he asked him again.
"It is true that as General Gao expected, Zhang Song is indeed dedicated to Yizhou." Sima Yi also realized that he had lost his composure. He hurriedly came to his senses and said to Gao Shun, "General Gao has such a clever plan that Yi is ashamed of himself."
"I was just making a casual guess. There is no magic plan, but Zhongda was ridiculous." Gao Shun was a little surprised when he saw that Sima Yi even said he was inferior to him.
At the same time, Gao Shun also felt a little secretly happy in his heart. Sima Yi was such a smart man. He was a wise man who could rival Zhuge Liang. Such a person actually said the words "feeling ashamed" in front of him, regardless of whether it was true or not.
Out of modesty, Gao Shun's vanity was somewhat satisfied.
If Gao Shun admitted that everything was based on his inference, then Sima Yi would not doubt it, but now Gao Shun's casual attitude made Sima Yi a little uncertain.
Is it possible that Gao Changgong is truly a genius in the world?
Gao Shun was both good at fighting and talented in literature, which was already rare in the world, and now his ability to predict the unknown was something that Sima Yi could not underestimate.
Sima Yi looked at Gao Shun, while Gao Shun was thinking about Zhang Song.
Gao Shun did not like Zhang Song. In Gao Shun's view, Zhang Song was a typical despicable person.
Zhang Song initially worked under Liu Zhang, and Liu Zhang did not treat him badly. Just because he thought Liu Zhang was weak and not a wise master, he tried every means to betray his master. Zhang Song first went to Cao Cao, hoping to sell Yizhou
He betrayed the other party, but he didn't want to be taken seriously by Cao Cao. Dissatisfied, Zhang Song rudely ridiculed Cao Cao, and was finally kicked out by the angry Cao Cao. But even if he suffered setbacks, Zhang Song's betrayal
His thoughts remained unchanged, and Cao Cao did not accept him, so Zhang Song looked for someone else, and finally found Liu Bei in Jingzhou, and Liu Bei was also looking for opportunities to expand his territory. The two hit it off. Zhang Song generously invited Liu Bei to take over.
State, and also handed over the topographic map of Xishu to the other party.
From Gao Shun's point of view, since you don't like Liu Zhang, then just resign yourself and find another leader. Doing this to lure a wolf into the house and plot evil is, to put it nicely, unkind, and to put it ugly, it is extremely despicable. Zhang
In the end, Song ended up dead because the secret was leaked, but it was the retribution he deserved. He deserved it.
But no matter how Gao Shun views Zhang Song, now that the opponent has arrived in Xuchang, how will Cao Cao treat him? Will it be the same as the original history, driving Zhang Song out, or will there be a change and accept Zhang Song's suggestion to attack Shu?
middle?
Gao Shun couldn't help but think, if Cao Cao drives Zhang Song away, where will Zhang Song go? Now Liu Bei is still living under Sun Jian and has no territory of his own. If Zhang Song is rejected by Cao Cao, the only seller he can find is probably
Sun Jian is gone.
But Liu Bei's ability to accept Zhang Song does not mean that Sun Jian can too. Cao Cao is definitely hungry for talents. Even so, Zhang Song was kicked out, which shows how bad his character is. For someone with such a bad character
, Liu Bei was able to tolerate it, firstly because Liu Bei had a thick skin and could ignore Zhang Song's rudeness to the maximum extent. Secondly, Liu Bei was eager to expand his territory at that time, so he and Zhang Song
Zhang Song hit it off immediately. But if it were Sun Jian today, it would not be easy to make him accept Zhang Song's bad personality. You know, in terms of bad temper, Sun Jian is definitely more powerful than Cao Cao. Cao Cao is just rushing.
If Zhang Song had been replaced by Sun Jian, he might have killed the opponent directly.
Gao Shun not only thought with some evil intentions, if Cao Cao drives Zhang Song away, Sun Jian will not be able to tolerate him, so what will Zhang Song do when he is determined to complete his great cause as a seller?
"Zhang Song must have met my lord yesterday. How is the situation?" Gao Shun continued to ask Sima Yi.
"Zhang Song has a defiant character, is arrogant and unruly, and his words are extremely bad. His master does not like him," Sima Yi replied.
Is that really the case? Yes, if Lao Cao could tolerate Zhang Song, he would no longer be Lao Cao.
"Then, will my lord send troops to Xishu?"
"In my opinion, your lord has no intention of attacking Yizhou at the moment. Apart from your lord, there are only a few other princes in the world, including Sun Jian, Zhang Lu and Liu Zhang. Among these three, only Sun Jian is a threat, and the other two are
There is nothing to be afraid of. My lord's idea is to destroy Sun Jian in one go. Then Liu Zhang and Zhang Lu will surely surrender, and the world will be settled."
Sima Yi was right. Cao Cao's current opponent is Sun Jian, not Liu Zhang and Zhang Lu. But Gao Shun always feels that Zhang Song's arrival is a good opportunity. If he can easily win Yizhou, then why bother?
Why not?
Under the management of Sun Jian, Jiangdong should not be underestimated. With the addition of half of Jingzhou, Jiangdong became even more powerful. It was not easy to defeat Sun Jian.
The Northern Army was not good at water warfare. Although they captured Jingzhou and captured Cai Mao, it still took a long time to train a qualified navy.
In another time and space, the Battle of Chibi was the most famous battle in the Three Kingdoms period. Cao Cao was defeated miserably, which also destroyed his hope of unifying the world.
In today's era, Sun Jian is more powerful, and his navy's combat power is unparalleled in the world. Although he cannot go north to attack Cao Cao, he is more than enough to defend the Yangtze River.
Under such circumstances, it is very difficult to defeat Sun Jian and occupy Jiangdong. If you are not careful, you may repeat the same mistakes as Chibi in another life. And judging from the current situation, even if you can capture Soochow, you may not be able to do so.
It will take seven or eight years.
Rather than that, it would be better to take advantage of Zhang Song's visit to Xuchang to capture Yizhou. With Zhang Song as an internal agent and Liu Zhang's weakness, it will not be difficult to capture Yizhou. By then, Cao Cao will dominate eight out of ten in the world.
It was not something that Sun Jian could resist. Cao's army could also send troops from Yizhou, Jingzhou, Xuzhou and other places at the same time on multiple fronts to jointly attack Jiangdong. Sun Jian would inevitably lose sight of one and find it difficult to deal with it. The general trend of the world would be decided in one battle.
This is Gao Shun's idea. According to Gao Shun's own estimation, if this is done, the world can be unified within five years.
