Chapter 303 Grand Strategy for Unifying the World [Subscription Request]

The news said that some aristocratic families were looking for beautiful women, and they preferred those who were already married.

The purpose of finding a woman is to present her to Cao Cao and to please him.

This incident portrayed Cao Cao as a demon who only loved other people's women.

Moreover, this kind of news is naturally contagious, and people maintain a strong interest in it.

Related news and examples.

As for the specific examples, Jia Xu was always cautious and would not write them down in the message and show them to Cao Cao in person.

But Cao Cao knew immediately that it must mean that he had a special hobby, such as picking up royal leaks.

This one thing alone is enough to prove that his hobby is well-founded and his addiction is severe.

For example, Mrs. Du, although she lived very secretly in Yecheng.

But she was famous for her beauty before, and everyone under Lu Bu knew her.

After Cao Cao captured Xia Pi and killed Lu Bu, Du Xiu Niang disappeared.

This easily makes people think that she was taken into Cao Cao's private residence.

For example, Madam Zou, Wen Ji, and Bai Ke are all married women.

While reading the message, Cao Cao subconsciously touched his nose.

"Who was the first to spread the news? How dare you speculate on my thoughts and preferences!"

"Xu You, Xu Ziyuan."

Jia Xu said cautiously: "After you took control of Jizhou, many nobles were brought to justice. Some of them came to Xu Ziyuan for help, and he pointed them in the right direction."

"Direction? Collecting beautiful women for me is the direction?" Cao Cao laughed angrily.

Jia Xu didn't dare to respond.

After everyone tried to find a way out to no avail, someone gave money to Xu You.

He showed people the way.

Xu You himself probably didn't expect that it would spread so widely.

The nobles were desperate to find a cure and really started looking everywhere.

"He is so smart to look for women everywhere."

Cao Cao turned his eyes and saw Jia Xu's embarrassed expression, and said, "I'm talking about them, why are you embarrassed too?"

Jia Xu said embarrassedly: "Feng Xiao asked me for a favor, and I thought it would help to ease the relationship with him, so I helped him."

"Filial piety?"

"What Fengxiao said about you liking beauties is true. Beautiful women are pleasing to the eye, and you use them as a diversion. But those people may not be the ones you like. I have information from all over the world, so you might as well pay attention to it."

"This is what Feng Xiao told you, asshole."

Cao Cao rebuked: "Do I have the habit of loving other people's women?"

Jia Xu said sternly: "You are born to be a king. You really care about the affairs of the world. There are very few women who can really enter your heart."

Jia Xu was able to talk about this topic with Cao Cao without any hesitation. For him, it was a unique and candid moment.

If it were someone else, Jia Wenhe would never make any comments to their face, whether positive or negative.

Cao Cao laughed and said, "You and Fengxiao are fooling around, this won't happen again.

Did you guys look for it too?"

Jia Xu said honestly: "I found it."

"Which women have you found?"

"Women of a different color who can even compare with the ladies are rare in this world. There is only one who barely qualifies."

"Who?"

"Madam Yin, the daughter-in-law of the former general He Jin, Yin Yue."

The He family was a prominent family in the past. General He Jin married his son to a woman from the Yin family of Nanyang.

After the He family fell into decline, General He Jin died and his son also died.

The daughter-in-law, Yin Yue, survived and returned to her parents' home to live as a widow.

Cao Cao had met Madam Yin in his early years. At that time, she was still a beautiful young woman who had just married.

But you can't just want someone who is pretty.

That would be really lustful.

"Fengxiao is afraid that I will forbid him from having sex with women, so he finds a woman for me first, so that it will be convenient for him to do things. He is such a bastard, just wait and see how I deal with him."

"If he asks you again, just say you didn't find it."

Jia Xu quickly agreed.

Cao Cao looked down at the map and began to discuss business.

He stared at the four large states to the south on the map: Yangzhou, Jingzhou, Yizhou, and Jiaozhou.

After becoming king, he should focus on conquering the four states and unifying the world.

Cao Cao will then use some of the knowledge gained by later generations to try to promote increased productivity.

The improvement of productivity is the root of everything and the basis for enriching the country and strengthening the people.

At the same time, we expanded our territory, swept the surrounding areas, and wiped out the Five Barbarians' Rebellion at its root.

No matter how chaotic China is, we will not allow foreigners to come in and massacre the Han people.

The Five Barbarians' Invasion of China was a catastrophe that the Han people had never encountered in history.

Of course, we have to unify first and take the four southern states before we can talk about other things.

Cao Cao stared at the map. During the Han Dynasty, more than half of the four southern states belonged to barbarian lands.

During the Han Dynasty, three-quarters of the population, territory, and economy were in the north.

There are many ethnic minorities in the south, and the situation is complicated.

Some areas and tribes in Shu were not completely recovered even with Zhuge Liang's ability, which shows how difficult it was.

In history, after Liu Bei took control of the southwest of Shu, the southern barbarians simply refused to obey his leadership and continued to attack and declare war.

The Shu army under Liu Bei's command repeatedly went to quell the rebellion in the southwest.

At an earlier point in time, with the great talent and strategy of the Qin Emperor, after unifying the six kingdoms and establishing the powerful Qin, he also sent an army of 500,000 to conquer the Baiyue in the southwest, which is the Shu area.

The same thing was repeated many times without success.

The reason is not that we can’t win.

Rather, the roads are dangerous, the mountains are high and the forests are dense, transportation is inconvenient, and there is a complex internal and external environment and ethnic distribution.

Not long ago, Emperor Liu Xie fled and was gone for several months.

It would be more difficult if a large army went there.

These practical issues are factors that must be considered early on.

Cao Cao discussed this with several of his advisers.

One of the ideas is to "cultivate" Liu Bei and let him establish Shu as soon as possible.

It was a good opportunity for Da'er to satisfy his desire to be an emperor, while at the same time handing over the complicated issues in the south to Liu Bei.

Let him lead the second and third sons, the young Prime Minister Zhuge, to Shu to deal with the problem, become the vanguard army, and sweep away the barbarians in the south. Then Cao Cao will reap the fruits and swallow Shu.

At that time, we will continue to sweep the southern barbarians based on the Shu Han, which will save time and effort and consume less energy.

Because the most difficult part at the beginning was done by Big Ear.

This method is equivalent to indirectly making Liu Bei work for one's own benefit.

As for whether Liu Bei would be fattened up and the situation would get out of control.

This is the same as what happened to Yuan Shang before, the possibility is very small.

The geographical location alone inherently determined the Shu Han's shortcomings in the cold weapon era, and it could only hold a corner at best.

In the later period, Zhuge Liang tried his best, but the Northern Expedition was not successful once, which is evident from the fact.

Another reason is that Cao Cao was also curious about Liu Bei's thoughts.

If he gets Yizhou, how will he deal with his relationship with the emperor? !
Kill the emperor and let him die suddenly?
Or just lie dormant on the surface and act as a powerful official?
Cao Cao guessed that with Da'er's ambition and character, he would not lie low and become a powerful official.

In fact, in recent years Cao Cao has been pushing Liu Bei to the south intentionally or unintentionally, leaving him with no choice but to take charge of Shu and face the complex situation in the south.

Liu Bei had previously tried various states and counties in the north, but had found no place to stay.

Cao Cao's development was too fast. He occupied the nine northern states like a whirlwind, leaving him no chance at all.

Liu Bei has now fled to the south of Jingzhou.

This is completely different from history and is many years ahead of time.

During the same period in history, after Cao Cao's Battle of Guandu, Liu Bei should have been stationed in Xinye, north of Jingzhou.

However, Cao Cao's series of tough performances made Liu Bei give up fighting against Cao's army north of Jingzhou, and instead asked for permission to go to the south of Jingzhou in advance to look for opportunities.

At this time, Cao Cao called Guo Jia, Xun You and Jia Xu to discuss the matter together.

The strategic plan for the great unification was being perfected and taken shape on a ship in Onozawa.

This plan will determine the direction of the world and the unification of the Central Plains.

On the map, Cao Cao looked towards the Nanyang County area and then moved westward.

Zhang Lu, who was originally under Liu Yan's command, had an increasingly prominent conflict with Liu Zhang in Hanzhong.

The two sides have already started fighting.

If Hanzhong was taken, the throat of Yizhou heading north would be cut off.

In Jingzhou, Xiangyang is the most important. It is a strategic point and also the richest city and county.

Occupying Xiangyang can also strangle the throat of Jingzhou.

Cao Cao made subsequent strategic arrangements on the map, selecting Xiangyang, the capital of Jingzhou in the northern region, as his next primary target.

Judging from the map, Cao Cao expanded the front line all the way southward.

The areas of Jingxiang and Hanzhong were all included in his territory.

Following this general idea, we can have a basis for strategic and tactical arrangements for the next stage.

Give the civil and military officials under your command a clear direction.

After Cao Cao and others had discussed the matter, many orders were delivered to various parties in Cao's camp based on this grand strategy.

Dusk is approaching.

After Jia Xu and others left, Cao Cao came to Yu Qing's cabin.

My "fat wife" is drawing her eyebrows and eyes and getting ready to go out.

People say she is fat because she is pregnant, almost nine months now, and she has a big belly, and looks a little plumper than before.

One Lake is the largest water source in the surrounding area, and many animals, like humans, live near water.

Cao Cao had someone fence off a piece of land as a hunting ground, and scattered Yan Rou, Xianyu Fu, and even wild beasts and blind bears sent from other places over the large area for hunting.

At this time, there were soldiers hunting on the lakeshore.

The captured wild animals were cooked on the spot and a dinner was held in the evening.

Yu Qing is a playful and mischievous person and wants to go out and take a look.

"Husband."

Seeing Cao Cao come in, Yu Qing greeted him, pursed her lips slightly, and smiled faintly, as beautiful as ever.

She had learned a new style of makeup and was in a rare mood to do it, so she put it on herself without any maids and put it on with great enthusiasm.

After Yu Qing finished putting on her makeup, Cao Cao took her and several other girls out for a walk.

It was not until night that everyone returned to their cabins.

Cao Cao and Yu Qing went back to the room together. Cao Cao massaged her abdomen and waited until she fell asleep before going to Diao Chan's room.

When the girl saw him, she hurriedly hid a scroll behind her back and said shyly, "Didn't my husband say he wouldn't come over tonight?"

"What are you looking at?" Cao Cao asked curiously.

Diao Chan took out the scroll shyly. Cao Cao took it and looked at it. He was very happy: "Why are you looking at these?"

"I want to learn how to serve my husband."

Cao Cao returned the scroll to Diao Chan, put his arm around her slender waist, and prepared to teach her by example.

"Where did this scroll come from?"

"Didn't my husband ask me to be in charge of the inner treasury? The treasures left by Dong Zhuo should be the things from the previous palace." Diao Chan said.

The scientific name of this scroll is "The Emperor's Special Secret Technique", and it has both pictures and text.

Cao Cao asked Diao Chan to continue watching and he sat behind her.

After a while, Diao Chan became so delicate that she put what she had learned into practice, and after adjusting her posture, her body sank slightly.

She used her new knowledge to complete the practice.

After more than half an hour, the night gradually deepened.

Diao Chan still had a smile on her lips in her sleep.

Cao Cao got off the couch and went to the independent cabin next door to contact Ling Jin with the communication beads.

They have found some clues about the Yellow River Tomb, but they are not sure whether they are correct and are still investigating.

After contacting Ling Jin, Cao Cao's thoughts turned to the big bird that was tracking the sutra preacher Shati.

During the past half month, Shati initially advanced towards the southeast of Yecheng.

Seven or eight days ago, he seemed to have received some news and suddenly changed direction, heading to the south bank of the Yellow River.

Since then, he has been traveling along the banks of the Yellow River.

Cao Cao used a large bird to track carefully, keeping a distance.

He always felt that there was a secret hidden in this Shati. It came so suddenly and strangely, and there must be something strange about it, which was worth digging deeper into.

At this time, when Cao Cao used the big bird to check the other side, he found that Shati was running fast at night and climbed up a low mountain.

There was someone waiting for him on the mountain.

Cao Cao used the big bird to see the people waiting for Shati, and his heart skipped a beat: he actually found the clue here without any effort.
