Chapter 4244: new route

Rome will let Huang Fusong come back? How is this possible? Rome is not mentally ill. Unless the Han Dynasty was blasted by Guishuang and withdrawn from the radiation area that belonged to Guishuang before, Rome will think about this kind of problem, and it is just thinking first, whether to let it go We have to see the situation.

After all, Huangfusong's strength is basically known to anyone who has a clue.

Although it is recorded in the Later Han Dynasty that the three major generals who quelled the Yellow Turban Rebellion were Huangfusong, Lu Zhi, and Zhu Jun, but in fact Zhu Jun was excluded for his poor performance, and only the so-called Lu Zhi who had won many battles was mentioned.

According to historical records, Lu Zhi led the five schools of the Northern Army to win many battles and trapped Zhang Jiao in Guangzong County. However, anyone who knows a little about the plot of the Yellow Turban Rebellion should know that the Yellow Turban Rebellion was the response of eight prefectures. "Qing, Xu, You, Ji, Jing, Yang, Yan, Yu".

To put it simply, Bingzhou and Liangzhou were too chaotic, so chaotic that they couldn't develop even if they went to the Yellow Turbans. Sili was also the core area of ​​the Han Dynasty, and the rebellion failed.

Of course, this is just the background. What is really important is that Zhang Jiao started the uprising in Ye County, Wei County.

What about this place? There is no problem, but Ye County in Weijun is only 70 kilometers away from Guangzong, not to mention how these 70 kilometers have been fought and won repeatedly, just as Lu Zhi came all the way, but whether he went to Bingzhou or Sili, They are all next to Wei Jun.

Unless Lu Zhishe made a long detour, but it was not mentioned in the history books, it is unlikely.

Under such circumstances, I am afraid that history books can only use these four words to record Lu Zhi's victory, and other things are not easy to write.

On the contrary, Huangfusong killed the main force of the Yellow Turbans in a serious manner, and led the Sanhe cavalry to sweep all the way. Almost most of the main forces of the Yellow Turbans that can be recorded in the history books were killed by Huangfusong.

Zhang Jiao, who died of illness in the official history, is not counted. After Jingzhou, Yuzhou, and Yanzhou arrived in Jizhou, more than 90,000 people in Zhang Liang's barracks were killed overnight by Huang Fusong in a night battle. More than 100,000 people under Zhang Bao's command, When Huangfusong arrived in Quyang, it was also directly crushed.

Huangfusong's outrageousness is not only because of the huge attack range, but also the extremely flexible combat thinking. More importantly, no matter whether the opponent is in the city, in the military camp, or encountered by chance, he can kill him in one go without delay.

Although a large part of the reason for being able to run so fast is the mobility of the Sanhe cavalry, the efficiency of this sortie can actually explain a big problem. Huangfusong's strength is really the kind that is strong enough to deal with various situations.

Rome is also aware of this, so if it is not necessary, it is impossible for Rome to let such a top star return to the Han Dynasty, unless Rome does not want to continue to exhaust the resources of Guishuang.

Chen Xi is more or less aware of this way of thinking. To put it bluntly, isn't Rome strong enough to have both sides, and do you still want to continue to have both sides?

In essence, this is the US imperialism before World War II. Although it is not as good as the Commonwealth on the face of it, he really dared to lend money to Germany to start the war, and then watched his allies lose both sides, and then he ended up earning more benefits.

Does Rome care about the war between Guishuang and the Han Dynasty? Recently, they really care, because as long as the war continues, they can continue to obtain a lot of benefits that they cannot obtain in normal years.

I don’t even mention Guishuang’s mercenaries from Rome. In fact, the Han Dynasty is also constantly purchasing goods from Rome. The Han room is also imported.

This is an extra income for Rome, so Rome is very interested in continuing the war between the Han Dynasty and Guishuang. Even if it knows that the battle of the empire will not be able to tell the winner if it is not fought for hundreds of years, Rome is still more or less happy to help Guishuang one time.

It's not that they have a good relationship with Guishuang, but more directly. Guishuang's disadvantages can squeeze out more benefits, so it's just a matter of grabbing Guishuang.

If you really want the Han Dynasty to play a big advantage, even if Guishuang still has a big move, it will be finished if you don’t use it. At that time, even if Rome wants to squeeze out something, it has to consider reality to some extent. Therefore, Rome is happy to continue in this situation.

"Mr. Cao." Zhong Yao looked at Chen Xi with some regret, but did not refute Chen Xi's statement.

Cao Cao's troubles to the present stage are not so much the reason for his ability, but rather the reason for being suppressed by some people.

The simplest point is to assume that the Turan Plain, which is the original extension of Guishuang in the north of Khwarazmo, was not nationalized when Zhuge Liang was managing Congling, and was transferred to Sansha for escrow, but Cao Cao took it over. What will happen?

Not to mention the Gobi desert in the area covered by the Turan Plain, but the plain area covered by oases and grasslands. As a famous interlaced area of ​​farming and nomadism in the history of the world, it is one of the very few areas that can raise both people and horses. productive area.

This is the place where Vologis V wanted to go after he released his army soul, because this place can really support a core area. New Qiang people.

A family of 500 acres can still be maintained until now, because the Turan Plain has a full 1.5 million square kilometers, and there are hundreds of thousands of square kilometers excluding the desert, so it can continue to operate if it is divided like this.

This is the best thing about the world map as a battlefield. Even if it doesn't look like a big place, it's really a huge map with two thousand miles from east to west.

In fact, a large part of the reason why the three idiots can easily collect taxes is that this rough operation method can really feed herdsmen and farmers. Otherwise, even if there is a guarantee of combat effectiveness, taxes are collected with knives, and the legs grow on the common people. , that can also run.

Not to mention that Cao Cao discovered this place first. When the passage to the Western Regions had not been repaired, Cao Cao sent people to run out first. Why did he fail to see the Turan Plain?

You must know that this place belongs to the joint management of Anxi and Guishuang at the same time, and whoever is stronger will own it. After Altay recaptured Khwarazmo fifty years ago, this place belongs to the radiation area of ​​Guishuang, and theoretically it was later controlled by Fuwo managed by virtue.

This is also the reason why the map of Guishuang has a very strange arc in the north. To put it bluntly, it avoids the desert-covered area and occupies the essence of the Turan Plain. After the Han Dynasty came, it blocked Fuwad. This place is naturally It was confiscated by the Han Dynasty.

This is a very good place. Cao Cao did not occupy it as a logistics base, but was taken over by Zhuge Liang as a bridgehead to provide logistics supplies to the Central Asian family and Cao Cao.

The so-called Congling Bridgehead, the logistics base, the smelting department, and certain living areas are all here. The various supports Zhuge Liang provided to the major families in Central Asia originated from here, and the logistics, grain and grass, etc. were also produced here.

You said, Cao Cao? Mr. Cao has been operating very well recently. He can be self-sufficient. There is no problem of logistics and food.

A fair person like me, Zhuge Liang, of course would not act recklessly. How could it be possible to allocate resources indiscriminately.

Zhuge Liang did not allocate resources indiscriminately, but in addition to the grain and grass for development, the armor for the battle, the horses and meat needed in the early stage, Cao Cao in Beigui received other support from the bridgehead?

No, Zhuge Liang did not violate the regulations and allocated more resources to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao also did not send anyone to ask for more.

In fact, Cao Cao sent Liu Ba to Congling. Zhuge Liang had already left, and then took Herat himself. Kandahar hoped that he would send people there. When Zhuge Liang was there, Cao Cao did not send anyone to Congling. .

Even if Zhuge Liang never showed any malice in front of Cao Cao since that time when he was young, as long as he is not a fool and knows that Zhuge Liang is from the Zhuge family of Langya, Cao Cao would not be able to ask Zhuge Liang for help. In a real sense, if no one cares, Zhuge Liang's death of Cao Cao is really a moral enmity.

The so-called Zhuge clan in Langya is also considered a famous family in Xuzhou, even if it is not a county prestige, it is also somewhat famous. As for the transportation problem in ancient times, the township party is a friend, which is a very important relationship. As for what Cao Cao did in Xuzhou, Zhuge Liang seized the opportunity to arrest Cao Cao. Killed, completely in line with morality.

"Book of Rites · Qu Li": "Father's enmity cannot be shared with the heavens, brother's enmity is not against the army, friendship is not in the same country."

The so-called township party is actually the third type, that is, if the enemy does not go abroad, he should be killed if he encounters it. The so-called friends are friends.

This is also the reason why Cao Cao did not have any emotional contact with Zhuge Liang during the years when Zhuge Liang was in Congling, except that he had to pass by and ask for food and logistics when attacking Herat.

Because there is no friendship between the two parties!

In addition, Hua Xiong, Wei Yan, Lu Xun, Lu Bu, Chen Gong, Lu Meng, Sun Quan, Pan Zhang, etc., these people are actually both helpers and restraints. Are there no generals under Cao Cao's command? There are, and a lot of them are really just lack of exercise.

Is there a lack of advisers under Cao Cao's command? Not to mention that Cao Cao's group of advisers is second only to the group of people in Chang'an who sit in the Central Plains. They really wrestle their arms, not counting Chen Xi, the hacker. .

In this case, does Cao Cao really need a so-called helper? In fact, it is not necessary.

Xia Houyuan, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Cao Zhen, Xu Huang, Le Jin, Li Dian, Zhang Xiu, Guo Huai, Pang De, Yan Xing, etc., there are those who want to be frontal, those who want to defend, and those who want to command There are also conductors, are these people really poor in aptitude?

In fact, it's really not bad. Isn't the difference between these people just like real swords and guns and killing at the same level? It's just that many of these people's opportunities were taken up by the sent generals.

Just like Xun Or and Chen Qun, Chen Qun's ability was in the first year of Xingping, and he was placed under the rule of Liu Bei who had just acquired Xuzhou. As long as he could gain trust, he could do no better than Xun Or under Cao Cao's rule. If there is a slight difference, Chen Qun can also attract people who Xun can bring in, and Chen Qun can do the same operations that Xun can do, and with enough tempering, he may not be much inferior to Xun or.

However, when both of them are under the rule of Cao Cao, can they double the level of operation?

No, there are only so many resources, because what restricts the upper limit of output is no longer the level of intelligence and operation, but a more direct issue of resource reserves, and the current problems Cao Cao and the Han Dynasty are facing are actually this .

The simplest one is to take the commanders of the Grand Army as an example. Zhuge Liang, Cao Cao, Zhang Liao, Lu Xun, Lu Meng, and Zhang Fei are all clearly qualified to be the commanders of the Grand Army, and they don’t even mention the question of their aptitude. It is absolutely possible.

But now these people except Zhang Liao can barely be regarded as an alternative achievement, Zhuge Liang has achieved it, but he has no chance to display it, and none of the others have achieved it. To put it bluntly, isn’t it because of insufficient resources?

A general who can only lead tens of thousands of people a day, even if you have qualifications, unless your qualifications are extremely against the sky, you have no chance to become the commander of the army. Foolishly pushed Zhuge Liang to be handsome.

Among the remaining people, besides Cao Cao, who else has the opportunity to command more than 50,000 people?

As for Cao Cao himself, 50,000 people have commanded him before. The problem is that Beigui's pitiful terrain can't be spread out effectively during combat. The result is that Cao Cao only has combat experience in this special terrain and cannot successfully complete the experience. conversion.

To be honest, these are actually a way of suppression, but they are not as obvious as they appear. Even if you are not careful, you may ignore these things directly, because this method of suppression is actually very stupid.

As for whether Cao Cao noticed it, according to the current situation, it is a lie to say that he did not notice it.

Zhong Yao's mention of this at this time also implies that Chen Xi is almost done, and Jiangdong has suffered a lot, and this time Kou's matter must be explained, let go of what should be let go. After all, I can practice another batch.

"It means that you will first step down from the post of governor, and then transfer Lu Ziming out from the northern Guishan Mountain area, and let Lu Ziming take over temporarily?" Chen Xi asked thoughtfully.

Zhong Yao was immediately paralyzed. His core idea was to release Cao Cao, but he never thought of touching Zhou Yu's official title. Although Zhou Yu suffered heavy losses this time, he conquered the capital of Guishuang, beheaded tens of thousands, killed Liu Hao, and sent him back A population of nearly 200,000 people, these are all meritorious service, according to the military law of the Han Dynasty, they don't even need to be punished.

When Wei Qinger left Dingxiang, he lost two generals and died as Marquis Xi. He did not conquer the royal court, and the gains and losses were not much, but according to the military law, there was still a small amount of money rewards, but the meritorious service was not much.

Therefore, Zhong Yao didn't even think about touching Zhou Yu's official position and title. How dare he dare to say such a thing, and is he impatient?

What's more, what kind of thing is Lu Ziming, not to mention the fact that Zhou Yu's position will not be moved at all, even if it can be moved, Lu Meng will temporarily act as the governor? Nobody appeared out of nowhere!

Zhong Yao wondered whether his old cousin would roast himself on the fire, or if he was afraid that he would not cook well.
