As the saying goes, it makes sense to compare people to each other and make them angry.
Liu Bei made the Taiping Hundred Coins, and Sun Quan made the Daquan series, which turned into cancer-like existences, sucking the blood of the people.
During this period, there was an endless stream of rebels in Yizhou. Fortunately, Liu Bei's knife was sharper.
Yizhou¡¯s economy has regressed for thousands of years, and it has entered the era of barter.
The Taiping Hundred Dollars became garbage piled up at home.
Sun Quan¡¯s situation is a little better. His Daquan series is only used for trade.
I made a small sum of money from Yizhou and plundered it from Jingzhou merchants, but the impact on the people was limited.
However, Sun Quan has never been able to figure out why Kaiyuan Tongbao can enter the market unimpeded?
King Dongyang also made a lot of money through coinage, and his treasury was almost full.
The cleverness in it is worthy of Sun Quan's consideration!
Time flies, one year has passed.
The armistice agreement signed by Cao Cao and Liu Ke is officially invalid.
But what surprised Cao Cao was that Yangzhou did not dispatch troops and generals, but it was calm as usual.
"What on earth is King Dongyang thinking?"
Cao Cao seemed impatient and restless. If Liu Ke made a move, he would probably take advantage of it.
"My lord, don't be anxious. King Dongyang is holding his troops still. This is actually common sense." Jiang Ji said calmly.
Jiang Ji, Hu Zhi and Zhu Ji are well-known in the Jianghuai area, and they are talents recently discovered by Cao Cao.
When Cao Cao was still Prime Minister, Sima Yi was appointed as an official in the East Cao family, while Jiang Ji was in the West Cao family.
It¡¯s just that the fate of the two was different. Sima Yi was quickly promoted by Cao Cao because of the Sima family.
Sima Yi was very famous, but later on, he made great decisions and instigated Sun Bi and Sun Kuang to rebel, which ruined Cao Cao's plan.
That night, Cao Cao was very sad and met Jiang Ji. Cao Cao somehow got into a conversation with Jiang Ji.
There were some unspeakable stories between the two of them.
Cao Cao suddenly discovered that he had such a great talent under his command!
Jiang Ji¡¯s understanding of the general trend of the world coincides with his own!
Cao Cao asked some more questions for the exam, and Jiang Ji answered them fluently and was able to give very profound insights.
After shaking hands all night, the two met each other late.
Cao Cao kicked Sima Yi away and asked him to calm down. Jiang Ji gradually became Cao Cao's confidant.
"It's not that King Dongyang doesn't want to fight, it's just that he doesn't have a chance!"
"Tell me."
Cao Cao was very interested because he was fully prepared and found that Liu Ke didn't care about him at all, which made Cao Cao very discouraged.
Although the longer the time, the more methods he can prepare.
But it¡¯s really too poor.
Food is okay, but besides food, there are other worries.
Cao Cao continued to suppress, just for the sake of war.
But the war did not come as expected, how could he not be nervous?
"The first is the matter of the Yamatai Kingdom. It has been nearly three years since King Dongyang conquered the Yamatai Kingdom. Every time there are reports of victory, the Yamatai Kingdom has never been destroyed. Not only that, King Dongyang has added more troops to the Yamatai Kingdom every year. The number of soldiers has reached a terrifying 150,000! King Dongyang will not start the war lightly until the war in Yamatai Kingdom ends."
At the beginning, Cao Cao was very doubtful about the authenticity of the battle of the evil Matai Kingdom, but two or three years later, King Dongyang was still fighting against the evil Matai Kingdom.
If it were acting, it would be a bit more realistic.
Therefore, Cao Cao can only believe it temporarily.
"The second is Kaiyuan Tongbao. The new currency has just been implemented and Yangzhou has not yet stabilized internally. King Dongyang will not make a move without being sure."
After listening to Jiang Ji¡¯s analysis, Cao Cao felt it was very reasonable.
"So, Liu Xuande did me a small favor by accident?"
If Liu Bei hadn¡¯t spent thousands of dollars on peace, the Central Plains would not have been so peaceful.
Speaking of which, this is still due to Sima Yi.
Now, among the three brothers of the Sima family, except Sima Fu who stayed in Chang'an, Sima Lang was kicked to Yanzhou, and Sima Yi was kicked to Xiliang.
"No matter what, we can't take it lightly." Cao Cao said cautiously.
"My lord is wise."
Cao Cao thought about it and felt that he couldn¡¯t do nothing.??. Otherwise, once Yangzhou moves, he will have no time to react.
The four states are very large, but to sum up, Cao Cao only needs to guard against three important points.
One is Xuchang, Changshe and other places. There is a road leading to Luoyang from here, which is a battleground for military strategists.
Emperor Xian is also in Xuchang, although his presence cannot be lower.
"Go to Lejin, command 50,000 troops, and garrison in Changshe." Cao Cao ordered.
When necessary, Xuchang can be abandoned, but Changshe must not be abandoned.
Coupled with the local garrison in Yingchuan County, Le Jin could mobilize up to 100,000 troops.
A hundred thousand troops guarding one point is not enough.
If Changshe becomes a major battlefield, it will not be too late to increase the number of troops.
I just hope that there will be no shadow on Le Jin. After all, he experienced a failure in Yingchuan and was captured.
"Xiahou Dun is the commander-in-chief, and Yu Jin is the deputy general. He leads an army of 100,000 people and goes to Yanzhou."
There are 200,000 defenders in Yanzhou, plus Xiahou Dun's troops, a total of 300,000 troops. With such a strength, they can hold out until reinforcements are sent.
The most troublesome thing for Cao Cao is Bingzhou¡¯s defense.
It seems that we can only selectively abandon some counties and only protect Taiyuan County, Shangdang County and other dangerous places.
"Xia Houyuan commanded 50,000 troops to defend the foreign tribes in the north of Bingzhou. Cao Zhen commanded 50,000 troops to defend Huguan."
Xia Houyuan was good at running attacks, so Cao Cao was very relieved to hand over the limited cavalry to him.
And Cao Zhen is Cao Cao's adopted son and is deeply trusted by Cao Cao. It is most appropriate for him to guard Huguan.
Therefore, after this mobilization, the number of soldiers and horses available for battle in Bingzhou reached 200,000.
As for the Shangyong and Nanyang areas, according to the agreement, they will be handed over to Liu Bei's custody.
If it were Yangzhou that sent troops to occupy Yangzhou instead of Sun Ce, Cao Cao would also give up directly.
Cao Cao has always been a very courageous monarch. It is nothing to give up some states and counties for the sake of victory.
The 600,000-strong army has been arranged, and the rest still needs to be farmed.
As a last resort, Cao Cao would not send them out unless the Yangzhou Army had already attacked.
Nowadays, the yield of grain is very high, but if no one takes care of it, the final harvest will be reduced or even nonexistent.
Without food, Cao Cao could not survive even a year. His army not only had to fight, but also farmed and was very busy.
With the Yangzhou Army not mobilizing, Cao Cao's army began to get busy.
The army is vast.
"Is the Yangzhou Army afraid of us?" Yu Jin said in a sullen voice.
"It's hard to say." Xiahou Dun shook his head and said, Yanzhou is the closest to Yangzhou and is very dangerous.
And the terrible thing is that there is no dangerous place in Yanzhou that can be defended.
There are grassland areas and steep mountainous areas in Bingzhou. You can hide in the checkpoints and act like a turtle.
Yanzhou is different. If the Yangzhou army rushes from Xuzhou, they can reach Chenliu. If they break through Chenliu, will they still be far away from Sishui Pass?
