Three Kingdoms

Chapter 3393 Heart

The land east of the river, on the high platform, under the three-color flag.

Around the high platform, hundreds of heavily armored personal guards surrounded him, also surrounding his banner.

"The Great Han Hussars General Fei"!

Countless pairs of eager eyes were cast towards him.

When Fei Qian stood on the high platform, he didn't know who started shouting first, and soon everyone was shouting!

There are many swords and guns, and the shields and armors are gleaming with scales. Everyone seems to be trying to make themselves taller, and they all seem to be proud of being under the command of the Han Hussar, and their spirits are extremely high.

Needless to say, the generals who originally belonged to Fei Qian, even the newly surrendered or captured Cao Jun generals and military academy, looked at Fei Qian with a little more complicated emotions. As for the newly "subordinated" soldiers of Cao's army, their emotions were even more complicated.

After all, Dahan's information dissemination is really too backward.

Many ordinary soldiers in Shandong and the lower-class people who want to obtain some information are often distorted, false, or cut off both ends, leaving only an inexplicable middle section. Therefore, these ordinary soldiers of Cao's army are very important to the Hussars. Fei Qian's cognition often stays in a few words...

For example, they have green faces and fangs, eat human hearts and livers, etc.

Although these things are sometimes very unbelievable, they cater to the curiosity of these ordinary Cao soldiers. Then there will be a market, and some people will believe it and self-protect such rumors.

Now, these rumors…

He walked into the sunshine and showed himself in front of everyone.

It turns out that this is what the hussars are like!

I have to say that Fei Qian does look a bit like him now.

Well, in fact, anyone, even if they are ordinary, will show a different kind of aura as long as there are people cheering them to the left and right. For example, those people in later generations who, even if they spend their own money, still have to look for people at the airport to look like they are picking up the plane, aren't they just to put some light on their faces?

Fei Qian's current move was naturally not to show off his face, but to recover the captured Cao soldiers.

Of course I didn't do this to kill them...

Does that mean that Fei Qian pursues "killing prisoners is unlucky"?

Yes and no.

Or it could be said that it's ominous to kill someone.

Some people have extremely simple minds, thinking in either black or white, wrong or right.

Just like the matter of "unknown killings and prisoners", it is actually caused by many people who are brainless but unwilling to think more.

Of course, it is unrealistic to talk about complicated theoretical knowledge such as history, geography, economy, culture, historical inevitability, etc. to the captured soldiers, so it is more often about specific analysis of specific issues.

Fei Qian is relatively flexible in this aspect.

The brains and cognition of these captured soldiers were restricted by their original living conditions and living environment. After all, these people had not received any serious education since childhood, let alone nine years of compulsory education. They can't even write their names. To let them know what specific situation Fei Qian based his analysis on, it would be better to just throw in a few hard words or some reasons so that these people can understand.

After all, these ordinary soldiers and prisoners of Cao's army, if all of these guys have the same brains as the commander-in-chief, then what else can Fei Qian fight?

Back then in Linfen Pingyang, Fei Qian was not qualified to engage in "unknown killings of prisoners". He did not have the manpower to take care of, screen, and persuade the Baibo and Black bandits who had just put down their swords to return to the fields, so he could only kill them. After killing all the middle-level officers who were in charge of these Baibo and Black bandits, order in Pingyang was barely maintained.

With these foundations, Fei Qian was able to advance to the table where he competed with local gentry and gentry, and there were rumors of "unknown killings and prisoners". The reason is very simple, just two words -

"politics".

Only invaders or barbarian tribes without a "political" system will conquer everything by killing people.

Notice!

It's not that they don't know that "killing" doesn't mean everything, it's that they have no other option but "killing"!

Just like the Yuan Dynasty and the early Qing Dynasty, there was no ability to govern the place at all. Even near the home base of the Qing Dynasty, they could only rely on killing to maintain their rule in the beginning to cover up their inner fears!

As a result, these behaviors were taken out by some people in later generations who had simple or not so simple thoughts, and they advocated the secret of "killing"...

Of course Fei Qian now knew that among the captives of Cao's army, as well as the indigenous gentry and gentry in Yuncheng, each had different thoughts, so he deliberately put on such a posture.

Xun Chen narrowed his eyes, twirled his beard and smiled.

Pei Ji put his hands in his sleeves, like a farmer holding his hands, looking at the "crops".

Suddenly, everyone has different thoughts and expressions...

Amid the melodious sound of horns, a group of heavily armored cavalry appeared in the distance.

The sound of the horns stopped, and then the dull and powerful sound of war drums sounded.

Rows of heavily armored cavalry galloped down the slightly gentle hilly slopes. The rumble of horse hooves even covered up the roar of war drums for a time!

Rows of spears had been leveled. The cold light on the spears shines in the sun, and it seems that you can still smell the blood stained on the tips of those spears!

On the shoulders of the human armor are ferocious beast heads with fangs protruding outward.

On the vest are painted ferocious hungry ghosts with bared fangs and claws.

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves seems to cover all the sounds between heaven and earth. The cold light projected by the rows of cold armor seems to freeze even breathing!

The jumping red tassels are as dazzling as blood!

The earth trembles under the trampling of horse hooves.

People's hearts also tremble in the galloping of horse hooves.

The warhorse gradually speeds up.

The trembling of the earth, the roar of horse hooves, the shouts of the charging knights, and the cheers of other hussars watching the ceremony around them, at this moment, mixed into a sound like a surging wave, rushing to the surroundings with unstoppable momentum, drowning everyone!

Like a mountain, like a sea, like a prison.

No need for too many words, this is the invisible pressure, which reaches everyone's heart most directly!

Especially the hearts of those who have a guilty conscience and some distracting thoughts...

Cannot resist, cannot avoid.

No matter how many words you say, it is better to let these people see it with their own eyes.

In front of such rows of steel behemoths and war machines, everyone understands one thing: the cavalry is still the cavalry, but the world is no longer the world!

In Anyi City, those who were muttering were quiet.

Among the Cao army surrendered soldiers, those who were talkative were also quiet.

There was silence between heaven and earth, and the only thing left was this giant beast made of flesh and steel, which rolled over and pressed in front of it, and in an overwhelming way, trampled those gossips and turned them into flying sand and broken soil!

Xiahou Dun regretted it.

He saw Bao Zhong's undisguised joy, and also saw the dejection of some Cao army military schools.

He turned his head and looked at the high platform, but saw that Fei Qian seemed to cast that icy and piercing gaze over!

Xiahou Dun couldn't help but shudder slightly and avoided the gaze, but after he completed the avoidance action, he was furious in his heart. He gritted his teeth and looked up again, but found that Fei Qian was no longer looking at him, but was looking into the distance...

"Ha..."

Xiahou Dun seemed to hear the sound of something breaking in his heart.

Undoubtedly, Fei Qian's behavior was a display of force.

Some people are smart and will quickly dodge when others show their knives, but some people think they are smart and think that others are bluffing when they show their knives, and they dare not really cut them down...

...

...

In Youyan, Tuoba clan inexplicably ushered in his first victory.

Everyone has a threshold in their hearts. If you lose too much SAN, you will go crazy easily, and if you are under too much pressure, you will collapse easily.

In fact, the area of ​​​​Xixi and Guangping is indeed a very good terrain.

It is a terrain that is friendly to the defenders, or to the infantry, but not very friendly to the cavalry.

If the terrain is open enough, then there will be no big problem for thousands of cavalry to charge, but what if there are rivers, stone bridges, city walls, and guards? It will definitely not be smooth.

Even if the cavalry wanted to attack Xi and Guangping, they would have to prepare for a few days and then attack for a few days...

But now, thanks to Huang Si, they don't have to fight.

So sometimes, no matter what terrain, strategy, plan, or preparation, it is not as good as the enemy's cooperation.

Huang Si's running is just like a hole in the tire. Although the hole is small, it can be deflated!

Once the spirit is deflated, there is really nothing to talk about.

If Cao Liang and Huang Si's men were all cavalry, they might be able to do a roundabout big plate chicken... uh, a big circle or something, come back and attack Tuoba and others in turn, but most of Cao Liang and Huang Si's men are infantry!

For the infantry, if they cannot form an array like an iron hedgehog, they really have no ability to resist large-scale cavalry.

The key is that the infantry only has two legs, even if they want to run, they may not be able to outrun!

At the beginning, Tuoba was still a little cautious.

After all, there are not many people left in their Xianbei tribe now. At the beginning, some Xianbei cavalry wanted to chase and kill, but they were stopped by Tuoba, fearing that it was a trap set by Cao's army. Because even if Tuoba was stupid and stupid, he knew that all his careers must first have some people under him. If there are no people, no matter how big the territory is, no matter how many foundations there are, there is no meaning.

Just like those other Xianbei people who fled north and west. Indeed, the desert is very large, and the Xianbei people who fled north and west will have a larger land area, but what's the use of that? Standing on the mountain peak, or standing in the desert, seeing no one around, just shouting "I am the master of Xiaomixu Mountain", can I really be the master of something?

Therefore, Tuoba knew that these Xianbei people were almost their last resort, and they had been carefully controlling them, trying not to let them suffer any unnecessary damage, and dared not waste them. After all, the Xianbei were too weak now, and once they were damaged, it would be difficult to replenish them. Of course, there is no concept of place of origin yet, but it might as well be distinguished by this for the time being.

But Tuoba never expected that the Cao army would be defeated so thoroughly!

No hesitation, no ambiguity!

This is actually not surprising.

The generous people in Yanzhao did not have a good end from generation to generation, so how could any genes survive?

Soldiers who fought bloody battles abroad were beaten into pieces when they returned home. How many of them would choose to continue to dedicate everything and sacrifice themselves?

The Tuoba clan restrained those people from Xianbei, but the other Han cavalry roared into the city and gained a lot without being hurt!

this……

The Xianbei people themselves are very valuable, and when they saw the other Han cavalry killing and killing each other, their eyes were about to spit out fire, and the Tuoba clan was burned to ashes!

These ordinary Xianbei people have simple minds and spend their whole lives eating, drinking and having fun, and do not have too many concepts of family and country. Some Xianbei people understand Tuoba's thoughts, but don't care, while others don't understand at all and don't want to understand.

Now that there is an opportunity to make money and fight, promotion and fortune are just around the corner, many Xianbei people can't help but shout at the Tuoba clan. They don't care that the Tuoba clan is also a Xianbei, but they seem to be staring at their enemies. His eyes were almost red.

Tuoba Shi smiled bitterly, then waved his hand and ordered.

Those Xianbei cavalrymen cheered, like Erha breaking free from the rope, making various noises, sticking out their tongues and rushing forward!

Looking down from a high place, you can see groups of hussars attacking behind Cao Jun's retreating troops. Every time they surge, it is like a bloody wave rushing towards Cao Jun, splashing some dust and blood. . The hussars moved forward unstoppably like a torrent of steel, and what was left on the ground where the torrent rushed was flesh, blood and corpses.

…

…

Cao Cao is going to be defeated!

No, it has been defeated!

Irreversible!

When Emperor Liu Xie received the news, he thought it was a joke.

Or are these damn traitors going to give him another aptitude test or risk assessment...

"The Prime Minister is so wise and brave, how could he be defeated like this?" ! 』

Liu Xie said that he is also a warrior of alcohol test, how could he fall into the pit like this?

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" 』

To be honest, Liu Xie is still a little confused until now in this battle.

Although he was not that smart originally, over the years, even an iron pestle can be sharpened... even if it cannot be sharpened into a needle, the surface can still be brighter.

Liu Xie did have a premonition early on, and he even expected or prayed, but he really didn't expect that Cao Cao would be defeated so quickly and miserably!

"Jizhou, Hedong, and Youzhou..." Liu Xie's eyes widened, "Are you serious about what Aiqing said?" ! 』

After getting the affirmative answer, Liu Xie felt extremely confused.

Is this a simple defeat?

This is simply a mess!

Wasn't this Cao Cao originally extremely tyrannical?

Why does it look so vulnerable now?

Just like this, Prime Minister Cao Cao wants to attack Guanzhong on a large scale?

What did he think?

But now if we study what Cao Cao thought, something seems wrong. Now the question before Liu Xie is whether to issue an edict to mediate...

No, wait.

Only then did Liu Xie realize that those "lovers" were busy telling him the truth about the war just to get him to show up!

These damn guys!

Liu Xie couldn't help but feel a little angry. How long has it been since he was still playing tricks and testing the emperor with such things?

After being angry, Liu Xie had to accept this reality. If Cao Cao is really defeated and completely defeated, will Liu Xie accept a new "general"?

Maybe even the "Great General King"!

Duke Pingyang?

King of Guanzhong?

Liu Xie trembled.

Pingyang is fine, but if Fei Qian is sealed as a prince in Guanzhong, then it is simply a slap in the face of the spiritual status of the ancestors of the Liu family!

The altar table in this ancestral temple might collapse!

No!

This is absolutely not okay!

so……

Can only mediate?

But……

Liu Xie frowned and walked in circles in Chongde Hall with his hands behind his back. From the sun setting in the west to setting in the west, I still couldn't come up with any strategy that could get the best of both worlds.

Liu Xie's wish is actually very simple, but it is also very far from simple.

If he wants to hold great power, he must have capable ministers under his command, but he cannot have powerful ministers. Therefore, he has always hoped that Cao Cao and Fei Qian would both lose in the fight, be exhausted, or even die together, instead of the current one-sided situation. .

Cao Cao is not a good person, as for Fei Qian...

Well, it’s not a good thing either!

What Cao Cao wants is the "authority" of the emperor, and he can order the princes in the name of the emperor...

Although Fei Qian doesn't really want power, but...

When Liu Xie faced Fei Qian, he felt even more scared.

Yes, more scared.

Not the kind of fear of life and death.

Liu Xie felt the fear of life and death from Dong Zhuo.

Nor is it fear of force.

When Li Guo was in power, Liu Xie felt like he was trapped among barbarians with such brutal force.

Fei Qian never threatened Liu Xie's life, nor did he use force to make Liu Xie surrender. He could even be said to be polite and well-controlled. However, when Liu Xie faced Fei Qian, he didn't know why, but he felt deep in his heart. I feel a kind of fear everywhere, a kind of fear...

It's like, Liu Xie is no longer the "Emperor".

When facing Cao Cao, and facing these beloved ministers or treacherous ministers in Shandong, even if Liu Xie was suppressed in wisdom and fooled in emotion, Liu Xie could still see from their eyes that he was wearing a crown and sitting high on the throne.

But in Fei Qian's eyes...

He seemed to be just a child who didn't even know what the country people ate on a daily basis.

He didn't know astronomy and geography, and didn't understand the sufferings of the world!

In Liu Xie's mind, there was a voice shouting that Fei Qian was right, and as an emperor, he must know these things. But there was also a voice shouting back even louder, saying that he was the emperor! In the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, did every emperor really have to understand these things before he could ascend the throne and become the emperor? !

"Only by understanding these can you be a good emperor..."

"If you don't understand these, you won't see how bad the emperor is! "

Liu Xie stood in the Chongde Hall, looking up at the increasingly gloomy sky, and asked himself, "Who am I...? Who should I be? "
