Vol 2 Chapter 337: twilight

The situation in Jingzhou quickly returned to stability after Zhuyang was occupied by Liao Hua. At present, both Liu Bei and Cao Cao are seeking stability. Although Zhuyang is only a small barrier, it has become a balance point in this fragile relationship between the two parties.
Prior to this, the position of Zhuyang was not optimistic, but after Xiangyang was occupied, the importance of Zhuyang was highlighted. If Cao Cao occupied Zhuyang, between Xiangyang and Hanzhong, Cao Cao was stabbed hard. The root thorn can't be smooth, but if Zhu Yang holds Liu Bei's hands, the offensive initiative will be completely transposed. Liu Bei can send troops from Hanzhong and Xiangyang to Nanyang at the same time. Cao Jun of Nanyang can only switch to defend at this time, not daring Attacking Xiangyang with all his strength, lest the old nest be served by Liu Bei.
Perhaps it was that Cao Cao lost too much relationship here. Cao Jun ’s administrative measures in Nanyang were quite irritable, and they were always dominated by repression. This also led to the civil riots in Nanyang that had not stopped in recent years. If Liu Bei hit this time Coming in, Cao Jun also worried that Nanyang would not be able to hold it, so Xu Chang was almost completely exposed to Liu Bei's attack.
In fact, Guan Yu occupied Xiangyang, and after Jiangdong ’s frustration in Jingzhou, Cao Cao had already begun to prepare for the capital relocation. After all, Xuchang was too close to Xiangyang, and there was almost no danger. If you accidentally let Liu Bei take away the emperor, That Cao Cao was completely politically passive. The already stable land of Kyushu, I am afraid that there will be a large number of riots inside, and then the world will probably be chaotic again.
This is by no means the result Cao Cao wants to see, so Qiandu has basically reached a consensus within Cao Jun, and has already begun to take action.
At this time, Cao Cao naturally did not want Nanyang to lose.
...
Cheng Yu walked out of the Wei Wang Mansion and sighed slightly. This time was actually a good opportunity to recapture Xiangyang, but Cao Cao chose to seek stability. Cheng Yu found out that Wei Wei was old, especially since he was sealed in April this year. After Wen Ruo's death, King Wei was no longer able to breathe the world as he did then.
Probably after the battle of Chibi, Cao Cao seems to have lost his strength, everything is to seek stability, Hu Laowei is still there, and today's King Wei is still amazing, even winning, but only the spirit of whoever wants me. , But it is no longer there.
If Cao Cao before the Battle of Red Cliff encounters this situation, he may personally seek to at least take Xiangyang back to maintain Cao Wei's main advantage, but now, the elderly Cao Cao has lost his sharpness and he became Start anxiety, like all people who have entered old age, start planning for their children and grandchildren.
It ’s just that ... Cheng Yu shook his head and could n’t say that Cao Cao was wrong. Cao Cao ’s main energy is now internal to stabilize the Cao ’s regime. It ’s just that Liu Bei ’s development in recent years has made Cheng Yu very worried, with Shuzhong as the rear and Jingzhou. Waiting for strategic points, once the Central Plains changes in the future, when Liu Bei is in a daunting situation, can someone stop Cao Wei?
Cheng Yu was deeply worried about the future. Ten years ago, he could see the world clearly, but today, ten years later, he could not see the future of the world.
Fortunately, Liu Bei is also old. As for Jiang Dong Sun Quan ... he is a talented man, but Jiang Dong's own problems are too limited in the end. After the stunning Zhou Yu died that year, Cheng Yu was not really worried about Jiang Dong.
Unfortunately, the calculation of Jingzhou failed this time. Even if Jingzhou fell into Jiangdong's hands, it seemed to Cheng Yu that it was ten times stronger than Liu Bei's.
Cheng Yu suddenly discovered that Guo Jia, Xun Yu and Xun You had died one after another under the account of Cao Cao, and now it seems that there is only one person left. An inexplicable feeling of Xiao Suo is lingering in his heart. Cheng Yu suddenly missed it. Those old friends are now ministers of North Korea and China, mostly younger generations, and it seems difficult to integrate into these people.
"Wenhe?" Watching a person walking in front of him, the fat body made Cheng Yu, who was not too cold for Jia Xu, suddenly feel inexplicably intimate and couldn't help but call out.
"It turned out to be Anguo Tinghou." Jia Xu turned back and looked at Cheng Yu. The relationship between the two was not too deep, and there was even something wrong. He didn't understand why Cheng Yu greeted himself, politely nodding: " I do n’t know what Anguo Tinghou ’s advice? "
Shaking his head, Cheng Yu came to Jia Xu with some rickety body, and looked at Jia Xu carefully. When Jia Xu looked uncomfortable, he asked, "Where is Wenhe?"
"There's nowhere to go, just walk around at will." Jia Xu shook his head. Generally, he was rarely the one with the minister of North Korea and China.
"Then ... Wenhe could talk to me?" Cheng Yu looked at Jia Xu and smiled.
"Naturally." Jia Xu felt that today's Cheng Yu was a bit wrong: "An Guoting Hou said it's okay."
"You, you are always so cautious. I used to think that you were ... too selfish." Cheng Yu reached out and Jia Xu stepped forward to support him. The two figures folded forward, and Cheng Yu shook his head: "Now I think Maybe Wenhe is right. People ... should always consider it for themselves. "
Cao Cao wants to kill Cheng Yu?
Jia Xu was shocked in his heart, but then shook his head, unreasonable and unnecessary, how could this old guy suddenly express these emotions?
"The prime minister is old, Liu Bei is old, of course, I am old too, many of those heroes have now become a cup of loess, and sometimes, I am thinking, when I will leave, in this world, but also Someone remembered? "Cheng Yu didn't care what Jia Xu thought, just like all old people, holding Jia Xu's hand, he whispered:" At that time, when Feng Xiao walked away, the old man felt very uncomfortable and thought he was jealous. Only then would Feng Xiao die prematurely at this age. Later, if Wen Ruo went, he felt uncomfortable, but he did n’t feel that uncomfortable. Wen Ruo ’s ambitions did n’t change in his life. He lived very well and knew. What you want, although there are no regrets, there are some things, but someone needs to guard, even if that thing has finally reached the end, but there must always be someone like Wen Ruo, with his own life to tell future generations, some things can Compromise, some cannot compromise. "
Jia Xu asked himself that he was still clever, but now he does not understand Cheng Yu, what does he want to say?
"Wen He doesn't have to worry about me hurting you." Cheng Yu saw Jia Xu silently, smiled, and shook his head: "Like you and me, there are too many calculations in my life, and in the end I will tell the truth ... and nobody I believe it. "
Jia Xu said silently, Cheng Yu said: "I, I suddenly found out that the people around me have changed. I want to find someone who is similar to me. Zhao Mingshi, the Secretary of State, who can talk to me, seems to have only Wenhe. "
Jia Xu looked a little strange, he understood a little, this old man couldn't find the person to speak, saw that he pulled himself to speak, did he make a mistake when he went out?
After looking at Cheng Yu, Jia Xu suddenly felt the same sympathy: "Ting Hou was worried, which of the Manchu Civil War, Minister of the Qing Dynasty, which disrespects you?"
"Hey ~" Cheng Yu heard the words, hey laughed, and shook his head: "Still so cunning."
Jia Xu heard the words and smiled, without answering.
The two of them helped each other, and walked aimlessly along the main street of Yecheng. With the sun going west, the figure of the two became a bit sullen ...
Cao Jun retired and Xiangyang's reconstruction work finally started. Unlike Yueyang City, although Xiangyang is also surrounded by Hanshui, the underground is not like Yueyang at the beginning. The land is quite strong, but the benefits of the underground city are too much. Xiangyang is The important town of Jingbei is also a bridgehead against Cao Wei, and the underground city will naturally be built. Before Liu Yi arrived, Guan Yu had hired a private husband to dig the pit, which was three feet deep. Say, it is already a big city.
What is different from Yueyang is that because the geological structure in Xiangyang is already strong, it is not necessary to consider the foundation problem as Yueyang did. Liu Yi chose to build it with a frame structure this time, lay the frame first with bamboo, and then cover it with wooden boards. Fill it with cement as a foundation. Of course, the city still needs to be built with masonry, so the project will progress much faster.
The underground warehouse in Yueyang has not yet filled up to one-fifth, which also gave Liu Yi a new direction for the allocation of the underground part. The urban drainage and sewage system in Xiangyang will be stronger than Yueyang.
"This time hired tens of thousands of husbands, are all people in Xiangyang?" Liu Yi asked while measuring the distance of Xiangyang City.
This time it is much easier to hire a husband than Yueyang. Ten thousand people at UU reading www.uukanshu.com started construction at the same time. The progress of this project is not slow. The construction of the underground city part is only completed in one month. Now all we have to do is wait for the cement to harden. At the same time, it also prepares for the city of Zhuti, polishing materials and moving masonry.
"Yeah, the people of Xiangyang have heard about things in Jiangling. They know that Tinghou came to build the city, and each one is quite positive." Liao Hua nodded and smiled sincerely. Liu Yi had promised to help him stay in a house specifically. Mengnan Liao's family can be regarded as having some identity in this land of Jingzhou.
"Tinghou, Cao Jun will not really come?" Liao Hua was still worried about Cao Jun.
"Mostly not, but there must be some vigilance." Liu Yi nodded. He naturally didn't know what Cao Cao was thinking, but the current situation affected the whole body. At least Cao Jun's influence in Nanyang was actually in this. We are in a weak position in the battle, not to mention Jiangdong. If Jiangdong is involved, it will not be easy to stop the chaos, but only when Jiangdong will help, then I will say two things.
Therefore, Liu Bei does not want to fight, and Cao Cao is not necessarily willing to take risks. Liu Yi did this analysis, but the necessary defense is not indispensable. Otherwise, if it is slack, Cao Jun would not want to fight, seeing here is too good to fight , Can't help but stretch out his hand, it would be a tragedy.
