Movie World I Am King
Chapter 1735
He really didn't believe his nephew's words, but he had a very good relationship with Xun You and knew his nephew's character. Since he said so, there must be some basis for it.
"Exactly, that's right..." Xun You said with difficulty: "At noon yesterday, I went out to Jingzhou City with the Blood Dragon Rider, but now, I'm already in Yanzhou..."
Hearing Xun You's words, Cao Cao and Xun Yu were horrified...
From dawn to dusk...more than a thousand miles away...what does this mean? ?
Chapter 2120
Chapter 2120
"From Jingzhou City... to Yanzhou... morning and evening??"
Cao Cao has let Zhou Bu enter the city now...
However, at this time Zhou Bu was waiting outside the hall... and did not enter the back hall.
But at this moment, there are only Cao Cao and Xun Yu in the room, and Xun You who is half dead on the couch...
Mrs. Qing's family letter, Cao Cao has already read it...
There was nothing unusual about the contents of the letter. If there was any, it probably meant that Mrs. Qing said that she missed her sisters and wanted to invite them to Jingzhou for a few days.
After reading Mrs. Qing's family letter, Xun Yu said, "My lord... this is not a good thing! This week Boyang is threatening the lord..."
"That's right..." Cao Cao sat in the main seat, muttering in his mouth: "The morning and the evening come, the road of a thousand miles... Alas... Jingzhou Blood Dragon Knight, really invincible..."
Why did Cao Cao keep talking about the saying that the journey of a thousand miles will come from the morning to the evening?
To put it bluntly, what was the most restrictive place in ancient wars? ?
Not soldiers, let alone weapons and equipment...but logistics.
Let's put it this way, why do many people say that wars in ancient times cost people money? ?
Fifty thousand soldiers need food and grass every day, which is a large number.
And the food delivery team that escorted the 50,000 soldiers needed at least 10,000 civilians...
Once the distance exceeds a thousand miles, the food and grass consumed will increase exponentially.
Don't the folks who deliver food need to eat? How much food and grass will be consumed by the people escorting the food and grass on the road for more than a month? Calculated in this way, although it is said to be an army of 50,000, in fact, the number of young and strong civilians used is definitely more than 50,000.
And Zhou Ye's blood dragonrider, who came all the time, brought great pressure to Cao Cao.
What is the concept of the dawn and the evening? The concept is - if Zhou Ye is willing, he can let the Blood Dragon Knight bring three days of food and grass to attack his Yanzhou at any time... With the ability of the Blood Dragon Knight, he can completely take down his old nest Yanzhou in two days... …
There is no need to bring a large army to attack Yanzhou...
Even if he, Cao Cao, was lucky enough to defend Yanzhou, he would not be able to cause any harm to the invading Blood Dragon Knights...
Chasing, you can't catch up with others, fighting, let alone you...
As for what you said about strengthening the wall and clearing the wild?
It is indeed a good way, but the premise is that you must have a large strategic depth... How many places in the small Yanzhou can Cao Cao use the tactics of fortifying the wall and clearing the field?
If it is not cleared, Yanzhou will be wiped out...
Furthermore, he was about to attack Xuzhou now, and took Xuzhou in the name of avenging his father.
If Zhou Ye keeps dragging her here, she will miss this great opportunity.
Why didn't Cao Cao attack Xuzhou before? Because Tao Qian, governor of Xuzhou, has a really good reputation...
Tao Qian treats the people with generosity and benevolence...
If Cao Cao attacked Tao Qian, it would be tantamount to cutting himself off from the world... In the words of the gentry in the world, it would be doing unjust things and starting an unjust war.
This is not a good reputation for Cao Cao, who aspires to the world.
But if Xuzhou is not attacked, then Cao Cao will be trapped in Yanzhou, and it will be difficult to develop.
To the east is Nanyang County, which is Zhou Ye's territory...to the north, Jizhou is Yuan Shu's territory, and to the northwest, it is Zhang Yang's territory. None of these princes is more difficult to deal with than Tao Qian. With the current strength of Yanzhou , even if he wins by luck, it will be a miserable victory, which will inevitably hurt his vitality and attract the prying eyes of all the princes.
And this time the old man Cao died at the hands of Tao Qian's general Zhang Kai. For Cao Cao, he was extremely sad and happy...Why? Because there is finally a reason to kill Tao Qian and take Xuzhou.
But now, what does Zhou Ye mean by ordering more than a thousand blood dragonriders to send Cao Qing's family letter here? ?
It means——Cao Cao, I want to decide on those daughters of yours...
If you don't give me your daughter, then don't blame me for copying your lair while you were trying to seize Xuzhou.
There is no need to beat the drum... Cao Cao knew the intention of Zhou Ye sending more than a thousand blood dragon knights...
Why do you have to march in a hurry, traveling thousands of miles a day, to come to Yanzhou? ?
Just to tell him Cao Cao, if I hit you, it will happen every day, and you won't be able to defend yourself...
Thinking of this, Cao Cao couldn't help but sigh, "Boyang, Boyang...do you like my Cao's daughter so much?"
"It seems that the lord has also guessed Zhou Boyang's intention!" After thinking for a while, Xun Yu said, "However, it is not a bad thing for the lord..."
"Oh? How do you say that??" Cao Cao asked back.
"As long as my lord sends a few ladies to Jingzhou, the Cao-Zhou alliance will be unbreakable..." Xun Yu said, "This is only good for my lord, not bad!"
"I know...it's just that what this guy Boyang has done is really abominable..." Cao Cao sighed aggrievedly at this point: "He ordered Zhou Bu to lead more than a thousand
Riding day and night to arrive in Yanzhou within one day, isn't that just a warning to me that if he uses troops against me, he will attack me in the morning and in the evening, making it hard for me to guard against him? ? "
"My lord, those who achieve great things must be able to endure things that ordinary people can't bear, so they can have the world in their hearts!" Xun Yu persuaded.
In fact, Xun Yu has already seen that his master has the idea of admitting love...
However, if there are no steps, it is difficult for him to come down.
Therefore, Xun Yu simply passed the steps to Cao Cao... "Besides, this also shows that the blood of the Cao family is so precious that Zhou Boyang couldn't stop it? And... if Mrs. Qing has her own sisters in the back house to help One or two, it will benefit the lord without any harm!"
"Hahaha...Wen Ruoye is the one who knows my heart!" Cao Cao laughed and said, "Well, since Zhou Boyang wanted to marry all of my Cao's daughters, let him use the dowry in exchange...otherwise I will marry Cao Cao's daughters. What's the face of my Cao family if my daughter follows him for no apparent reason??"
Speaking of this, Cao Cao ordered Zhou Bu to be called in...
"Bu, I've met Mr. Cao!" Zhou Bu entered the room, cupped his hands and said in a salute, "I don't know Mr. Cao calling XX, what's the matter?"
"General Zhou Bu, please send a fast horse back to Jingzhou and tell your lord... that you want me to send my daughter to Jingzhou. 200,000 shi, if you agree to this matter, I will follow your general Boyang's wishes and send my daughter to Jingzhou... If not, please go back!" Cao Cao said.
"Please don't worry, Mr. Cao, my lord will not care about these external things!" Having said this, Zhou Bu said, "I will order people to rush back to Jingzhou overnight to report to my lord!"
"Then I will wait for the good news!" Cao Cao nodded with a smile.
