Rebirth God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 1517: Duke Jin

The Han Dynasty in Yizhou and the Han Dynasty in Jingzhou were arguing with each other for righteousness, but it was obvious that the Han Dynasty in Jingzhou had the upper hand. After all, Cao Cao represented a more powerful force. Judging from Liu Qi's performance, it was even more He is not a qualified monarch, and rumors about Liu Qi's various performances after he became emperor spread all over the world.

Another important reason is that Cao Cao may have the Jade Seal of Chuanguo in his hands. Although Cao Cao denied this matter before, many people think so. It was Cao Cao's army that defeated Shouchun in the first place. There is no reason not to get the Jade Seal of Chuanguo.

The jade seal represents the destiny, and the side that owns the jade seal obviously has a greater advantage in this battle of orthodoxy. For a while, many talents went to Jingzhou to join the imperial court. This situation made Cao Cao overjoyed.

After Jingzhou was stabilized, Cao Cao summoned his advisers in Taiwei's Mansion. Regardless of the royal family in Jingzhou, the generals and advisers in the army still rely mainly on Cao Cao's opinions.

After years of turmoil in the Han Dynasty, the influence of the generals under the command of the princes has become smaller and smaller, so that the civilian and military generals under the command of the princes only know the princes, but not the Han Dynasty. The most common and most distinctive representative is Lu Bu of Chang'an.

"Everyone, although Jingzhou is stable now, Chang'an has Lu Bu's army eyeing it. Don't take it lightly." Cao Cao said, this is also the place Cao Cao is most worried about. Nanyang County is close to Chang'an. As long as Chang'an's army leaves Wuguan, it will be able to attack Jingzhou. It is extremely unfavorable for the situation in Jingzhou.

"My lord, there is no need to worry. Although the Marquis of Jin did not expressly support the Holy Majesty, he did not speak out against it. Moreover, after the battle in Qingzhou, the Marquis of Jin needs time to recuperate. He only needs to send a fierce general to guard Wancheng, so that the Marquis of Jin It is difficult for the army to enter the hinterland of Jingzhou." Xun You said.

Cao Cao nodded slightly and said, "Xia Houyuan, I have ordered you to lead ten thousand troops to guard Wancheng to guard against the Chang'an army. Don't slack off."

"Here." Xia Houyuan came out and clasped his fists.

"Cao Ren, you lead 10,000 troops to guard Jiangling to guard against the Jiangdong Army." Cao Cao turned his attention to Cao Ren.

After a series of orders were issued, the deployment of troops in Jingzhou stabilized for the time being.

After the crowd dispersed, Cao Cao left Xun You and other important counselors behind.

"When the Marquis attacked Jingzhou, he sent envoys to Chang'an to persuade the Marquis of Jin, and told the Marquis of Jin that if the Marquis of Jin did not send troops to attack Jingzhou, after the Holy Majesty inherited the throne, he would make Lu Bu the King of Jin. I wonder what you think about this matter?" Cao Cao asked.

Xun You lowered his head. He knew that Cao Cao's words seemed to be to fulfill the original promise, so it was not a manifestation of Cao Cao's ambition. Lu Bu is a man with ambition. This is no secret in the world. Cao Cao is also The princes with a strong military force have no ambitions. If Lu Bu is named the king of Jin, it means that the princes will break the white horse oath made by Gaozu at the beginning, and it is easy to become a king with a different surname, and Cao Cao will have a chance.

Kings with different surnames have a fatal temptation for the princes, even Cao Cao is no exception. The weakness of the Han Dynasty has given the princes an opportunity to rise, and they can have a bigger one. Naturally, the princes will not give up easily. Who wants to achieve Greater fame, and the benefits obtained after becoming a king are obvious, which can make the civil servants and generals under his command more attached, but there is a clear difference between a king and a prince.

There is a world of difference between being called a king and being named a vassal, and both the vassals and the officials under their rule are clear about this.

"My lord, although the Han Dynasty is weak now, if the Marquis of Jin becomes a king with a different surname, there will inevitably be more ambitious people among the princes who take the opportunity to become kings. This will be extremely detrimental to the court."

Cao Cao's complexion changed slightly, and he snorted coldly: "If you can't agree to what you did back then, wouldn't you offend Lu Bu on this matter?"

"My lord, the elite soldiers and horses under Lu Bu's command will not argue with the lord on this matter. Although the influence of the Han Dynasty on the princes is getting smaller and smaller,

However, claiming the title of king would still attract criticism from all over the world, presumably Lu Bu also understood this point, even if the Han family made Lu Bu King of Jin, it would not easily agree. "Xun You said.

Seeing this, the rest of the counselors persuaded him one after another. As members of the aristocratic family, although they supported Cao Cao, they couldn't bear to see the situation of the great man falling apart. After becoming king, the Han family would have no dignity.

Among the counselors in the arena, there are many shrewd people, and they naturally saw Cao Cao's thoughts.

"My lord, you can go up to the sage and make Lu Bu the Duke of Jin, so as to show Lu Bu's identity." Cheng Yu said.

Cao Cao sighed: "In this case, we can only settle for the next best thing."

Just as Xun You thought, Cao Cao was really moved when faced with being king. Once a person has a certain amount of power, he wants to have more power, especially when the power in his hands becomes stronger and stronger. Ambition also breeds with it.

The next day, at the court, Liu Cong directly agreed to Cao Cao's request. Compared with the current stability of the Han Dynasty, this kind of thing is much worse. Besides, Cao Cao is more in charge of Jingzhou's affairs, and Liu Cong has just settled down. , In many things, Cao Cao is more obedient.

When Cao Cao proposed to move the capital to Xudu, it attracted opposition from officials in Jingzhou. If the Han Dynasty was in Jingzhou, it would be on their territory. After Cao Cao's rule, it means that everything has to start from scratch.

However, on this matter, Cao Cao's attitude is extremely tough, and there are good reasons. Jingzhou is close to Jiangdong and Chang'an. If the two sides send troops to attack Jingzhou, it will definitely affect the safety of the Han Dynasty.

Cao Cao's strength was manifested at this moment, and he immediately ordered Man Chong to be responsible for the construction of the imperial palace in Xudu City and prepare for the relocation of the capital.

Since Dong Zhuo took control of the court, the capital of the Han Dynasty has undergone several changes, from Luoyang to Chang'an. The Han Emperor died in Chang'an. After Liu Biao inherited the Datong, Xiangyang became the capital of the Han Dynasty. However, Chengdu City has become the capital, and now Cao Cao advocated moving the capital to Xudu. The majesty of the Han Dynasty was completely lost in this capital relocation.

After the general government went to Xudu, it was naturally not as good as Chang'an, Luoyang and other places. Xudu belongs to Yuzhou, and there is no special danger to defend. If the enemy comes to attack, it will face a more dangerous situation. However, If the capital is in Xudu, it is much better than Jingzhou. In this way, Jingzhou can provide a buffer for Xudu's safety.
