Chapter 1165
Winning Chang'an is really important.
Chang'an was the capital of the country for a long time in ancient times.
But it's a bit too west, and the environmental damage is serious, and the geographical location is gradually not as important as Luoyang.
In Chang'an, Zhang Yu will spend a lot of money to rebuild, and at the same time, he plans to station heavy troops.
Zhang Yu's goal has changed. In the future, Chang'an will be a more important base for dealing with Xibian or Ma Teng.
Xi Zhicai, one of the cabinet members, was sent there, which shows that it is very important.
Zhang Yu thought of Zhuge Liang again.
This guy has done very well in Guangdong. Zhang Yu intends to train him, and he will definitely be able to enter the cabinet in the future.
"You need more experience. Zhuge has always been cautious in his life. Chang'an may be suitable for him." Zhang Yu intends to let Zhuge Liang come to Chang'an and make Chang'an an important town in the west.
Ling Cao has been back for a while, Guangdong has reassigned new generals, and Zhuge Liang has handled the situation well, so it's time to let go.
Because the police system was not established before, it is established now, and there is no problem in maintaining overall stability.
"Decree, transfer Zhuge Liang to Chang'an to manage all government affairs."
Being in Chang'an is no longer an experience for Zhuge Liang, so Zhang Yu has to add more pressure to him and let him take on more tasks.
After doing this, Zhang Yu began to focus on his eyes.
He summoned the generals and said: "The decision between Cao Cao and Cao Ang is very important. If possible, maybe this battle really doesn't need to be fought."
"However, preparations must continue, and we must not be sloppy at all."
Preparing for war is a must.
And we must do better. Once Cao Ang does not surrender after three days, there will be no possibility of further negotiations in the future, so Zhang Yu must be prepared.
This side began to prepare nervously, and at the same time, there was hope for peace.
After Cao Cao returned, he summoned Cheng Yu alone.
"Zhongde, we have been a monarch and minister for many years. I have discussed it with Ang Er in the past two days. He has a plan. If it is feasible, it is a way out. If you evaluate it, how likely is it to be successful?"
Cheng Yu has always been Cao Cao's confidant and one of Cao Cao's most trusted people.
Cao Cao told Cheng Yu his plan to surrender Zhang Yu and then go to sea.
Cheng Yu was also shocked when he heard this, it was really unexpected.
"My lord, the current situation is really hard to turn back. It's either a deadly battle or a surrender. As for going to sea, it is indeed a way out and can be negotiated, but once you go to sea, the sea is vast, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to return in this lifetime." Cheng Yu sighed.
Cao Cao raised his head and looked at the roof. After a long time, he sighed and said: "Oh, but I am a father. I can ignore my own life and death, but I cannot ignore the lives and deaths of my children. Once I surrender, I may be able to surrender, but I have proclaimed myself emperor, and even if they survive, they will probably be under house arrest for the rest of their lives."
Cao Cao is familiar with history and understands the truth.
Zhang Yu let the Sun family go, but he didn't let Sun Ce go. Cao Ang and his brothers were different from Sun Quan. Sun Quan was only Sun Ce's younger brother, while Cao Ang and Cao Pi were the sons of him, the great Wei emperor.
This gap made Cao Cao understand that even if a few of them survived, they would still be under house arrest. It would be better to limit their activities to a small area, maybe a village, a town, or a county at most.
Such a life, if it is the hero Cao Cao, he would definitely rather die.
"My lord, I believe that Zhang Yu's words are trustworthy. He has broken his promise before, but he has never broken his promise to anyone other than Dong Zhuo and Zhang Rang. But now we probably won't pay too much."
"If we let them recruit refugees to go to sea, the world has generally settled down. We can't even recruit civilians and soldiers. We can only make the trip by lowering other prices and dispersing all the wealth." Cheng Yu told Cao Cao Analyze the difficulties.
"I have never bowed my head to anyone in my life, and I cannot bear to surrender to Zhang Yu. I will lead my troops to fight Zhang Yu before surrendering. This will only increase the killing, but I can only be willing to end it in this way."
After listening to Cao Cao's words, Cheng Yu understood that Cao Cao was determined to die and would not change his mind.
Cheng Yu sighed and said: "Oh, my lord, you and I have been together as a monarch and minister for many years. If the eldest son chooses to surrender, I will go to sea with the eldest son."
Going to sea, in Cao Cao's view, is worse than death.
Far from their homeland, they will be buried overseas when they die.
It's very uncomfortable for them.
Cao Cao already has such a will to die, and Cheng Yuneng, who has followed Cao Cao for many years, doesn't have many choices.
Either die with Cao Cao, or stay and continue to help Cao Ang.
Apart from two, he doesn't have much choice.
Cao Cao didn't say anything, the rules of this era are like this.
The king, the king, and the ministers, the king humiliated his ministers to death, let alone the king was about to die.
Cao Cao has made up his mind at this moment, his choice is not to help Cao Ang choose, but to choose to die by himself.
"Go and pass a message to Zhang Yu. Two days later, I will bring [-] soldiers out of the city to fight against him. I hope he can lead the troops himself. On the third day, I will hand them over to Anger and the others," Cao Cao said.
Cao Cao did not choose for them. At this time, no matter what the choice is, it is correct.
Cheng Yu knelt down, bowed twice, and bowed out.
Cheng Yu's back is a bit bleak, and he is also old.
At the beginning, Xun Yu was regarded as the number one counselor, but he was loyal to the Han Dynasty, and finally went to the territory controlled by Zhang Yu in person, and gradually changed his mind and contributed to Zhang Yu.
However, Xun You, who was highly valued by Cao Ang, was forced to leave because he was framed, and was even put under semi-house arrest, but he escaped the catastrophe at this time.
The remaining loyal ministers of Cao Cao are actually the most difficult to deal with.
Like Cheng Yu, there are only two choices, and there is no chance to surrender Zhang Yu.
If Cao Ang did not go to sea, but chose to surrender to Zhang Yu and let Zhang Yu deal with them, then they could still surrender, but the old master was still there, and the old master was forced to go to sea. At this most difficult time, according to the rules of this era, they could not leave old master.
Cheng Yu left with a gloomy back.
Cao Cao was also alone.
At this moment, Cao Cao is an old man.
Zhang Yu received the news and understood Cao Cao's thoughts.
Zhang Yu said to Guo Jia: "Cao Cao, he did not bow his head in the face of desperation. I will personally kill him tomorrow and give him a grand burial."
This is a tribute to a fighter. If it was Liu Bei, Zhang Yu would just drag him to the mass grave.
In three days, Cao Cao chose to end it one day early.
That morning, Cao Ang found out that Cao Cao had secretly mobilized [-] soldiers and horses, not elites.
On the street, Cao Ang knelt on the street.
"Father, you can't go, let my son go." On the street, Cao Ang roared out, and then lay down on the ground.
Cao Cao put on the armor he hadn't worn for a long time today, and held a Tianzi sword in his hand.
He is in good spirits, with a straight back, but his complexion is not very good.
