Chapter five hundred and seventy-four. There is someone above me!

Wang Hou was a little self-indulgent. Most of the Wangs surnames in the world were from the Wang family in Taiyuan, but Wang Shuang was really not. He was from Di Dao from Longxi, and maybe there was also the bloodline of the Qiang people in his blood vessels. Wang Hou's influence in the Wang family in Taiyuan could not affect him.

But this doesn’t mean there is no article to do! There is nothing to do with him!

Originated from Longxi! This is the biggest problem!

Moreover, Wang Hougang was on the second day of traveling through time, and the big blade pointed directly at his neck. On the execution ground, he shouted at me that there was someone above me! He was bragging at that time!

But now, it's true!

After the Battle of Red Cliff, Cao Cao's dream of unifying the world was shattered. What Cao Cao needs to do now is to pave the way for his Cao family. You must know that the road to powerful ministers has never turned back! Just like Huo Guang of the Western Han Dynasty, his life has been glorious! He has deposed and appointed an emperor. The Emperor Xuan of Han he supported was also a famous benevolent king of the Han Dynasty, but he still killed his entire clan after Huo Guang's death!

There is another famous example, Zhang Juzheng, the chief assistant of the Ming Dynasty!

This Zhang also worked diligently, suppressing the emperor for the rest of his life and supposes the ministers. His reforms saved the decline of the late Ming Dynasty to a certain extent. Emperor Wanli even taught him, but not long after Zhang Juzheng's death, Emperor Wanli still confiscated the entire Zhang Juzheng's clan without hesitation. What's worse was that his old mother, who was over 80, was locked at home without any rice or water, and was thirsty and starved to death.

Cao Cao could not see the example of Zhang Juzheng, but Cao Cao saw the bloody example of Huo Guang. The road to powerful ministers is either to the ultimate goal of usurping the throne and changing the dynasty, or to wait for you to settle the score after you lose the emperor!

Who is the most direct threat to the destruction of the Cao family now?

It was not the gentry clans in the court who were full of noise, nor even the external separatist warlord Sun Quan and Liu Bei who were opposite Cao's operations, but the internal warlords who had soldiers and generals at hand and were independent of the Cao family's rule. To be more specific, the Guanzhong clan, Ma Chao! Han Sui!

Thanks to Jia Xu, the witness, Guanzhong, which was originally the center of the empire, has been disrupted and has a population of less than one in ten. Until now, through Zhong Yao's series of efforts, only Yecheng can control about half of Yongzhou from Tongguan to Chang'an, Liangzhou, and the other half of Yongzhou are actually in the hands of the Guanzhong Group!

Xu Du, no matter how rich the old man in Yecheng is, they don’t have ice fist, so Cao Cao can really ignore them! Now that Liu Bei is living under someone else’s roof, his strength is too small and his position is too far away, and his threat to Cao Cao is average. Sun Quan is in a corner, although he is ambitious, and Sun Wu is also strong. However, he may even contribute to the Cao family’s emperor or even Sun Quan.

Because only Cao took the lead in carrying this banner, Sun Quan would not have such great public pressure after he became emperor.

However, Ma Chao and Han Sui were under Cao Cao's banner and had close ties with the ministers in the court. Once the Cao family became emperor, they were the easiest to collude with the old masters of the Han Dynasty, raise the big flag, and enter the pass under the banner of supporting the Han Dynasty to clear the emperor's side, seeking greater political benefits.

Wasn’t Dong Zhuo a senior back then? Li Jue and Guo Si set a good example.

In addition, from the geographical location and military strength, as long as you stick to Guanzhong, the strong cavalry of Xiliang can run to the foot of Yecheng for a few days and nights.

Liangzhou has to be on guard, which gives Jia Xu a lot of room for operation!

On this day, the Prime Minister's Mansion.

In his later years, Mr. Cao had frequent headaches, which was closely related to his excessive psychological burden. As always, Cao Cao sat upright on the prime minister's couch set off by the three steps, but frowned with worries.

Although the influence of the Battle of Chibi was joking by Wang Hou, and his butt was 60 times swollen for a month, it attracted the sensation of the hottest talks. However, after all, Cao's army lost 100,000 troops and was beaten by Zhou Yu and cried and called her mother. In the battle for Jingzhou, Cao's army was already at a disadvantage.

Just now, the eight hundred miles of emergency came from Jingzhou again, and Jiangling was lost!

Jiangling is the city of Jingzhou in later generations. The Yingdu of Chu State was the center of the entire Huguang area. It was also the base camp for Cao Cao to launch a war against Jiangnan. If it was lost here, the front line would be pushed back to the border of the Yangtze River. For example, in the 13th year of Jian'an, the opportunity for war to push to Chibi all the way will never be reproduced. Now Cao Cao's depressed heart is incredible.

At this critical moment, the attendant outside was killed by Cao Zongwu a few days ago and entered the report with fear.

"Prime Minister..., please see you at Zhongshu Jia!"

"Prince!"

Compared with history, Cao Cao's valuation of Jia Xu was higher than the first level, but his trust was reduced by three levels in a row. After all, in history, Jia Xu was the king of pretending to be a calf, and he never stood on the side on the surface, but now, even if he wanted to clear himself, the word "Wang Sect" was firmly pasted on his back!

So compared to history, when meeting Cao Cao, Jia Xu was even more careful. He stepped behind the palace and bowed heavily with great respect.

"My minister Jia Xu pays homage to the Prime Minister!"

"Please get up, what's the point of Jia Zhongshu here?"

"Return to the Prime Minister! Last month, the Xianbei Kebineng army invaded Jiuyuan City in the south! He was defeated by Wang Shuang, the captain of the Huns, and many beheaded! He reported his victory to Zhongshu. However, at the same time, Wu Qiu Jian, the captain of the Huns, wrote a letter to impeach Wang Shuang, killing the Xianbei people south to trade tribes, demanding punishment!"

The two border generals were fighting each other, and Cao Cao understood as soon as he heard it. The behind-the-scenes son-in-law Wang Hou must have been involved. He was not angry, and Cao Cao started to humming again with anger.

"According to the intention of Jia Zhongshu, what is the matter?"

"Return to the Prime Minister, the Xianbei Kebineng has ambition to defeat many Xianbei tribes in recent years, and it is becoming increasingly important. This year, he is involved in Jiuyuan again. His ambition is not small. Wang Shuangneng ordered the Huns Huchuquan, and Xianbei Budugen severely injured Kebineng. He is a talent!"

Can Jia Xu not speak for Wang Hou? Cao Cao couldn't help but smile on the corner of his mouth when he heard it. Sure enough, after hitting himself first, Jia Xu said something.

"However, when the minister checked Wang Shuang's resume, he was in the seventh year of Jian'an. When Ma Chao led his army to help the prime minister defeat the high-ranking officials, he fought against the Xiongnu and was recommended as the captain of the Xiongnu Protecting the Xiongnu! He was previously a marquis of Zhengqu Army under Han Sui's command!"

"oh!"

Cao Cao couldn't help but frown when he heard these words.

Stopped his hand to describe the official document and pinched the beard on his chin. Cao Cao thought deeply, but after thinking for a long time, he asked another irrelevant question.

"What is General Zhenbei doing recently?"

"Return to the Prime Minister, General Zhenbei is doing business with the Xianbei. It is said that he wants to produce milk powder and also to weave wool. By the way, General Wang and the Xianbei guard Wuqiu Jian tried to build a city on the grassland, teaching those Xianbei people to know rituals and farm, and build the city at the foot of Yinshan Mountain, not far from Jiuyuan!"

"Ha! This kid is more than two thousand miles away from Liaodong and runs to the front to mess around!"

Cao Cao smiled and shook his head with a whisper on his lips.

"This kid! When he gets some milk powder sweater ready, he will transport it to Yecheng. I will taste it myself!"

"What the Prime Minister said is extremely true!"

Cao Cao didn't say anything about what to do, Jia Xu didn't ask much, and just chatted for a few more times, then he clasped his fists and took a break.

But while retreating out of the hall, the thousand-year-old ghost's mouth curled up a victory smile!
