NOVEL NEXT Three Kingdoms Star System
Chapter 454 Moving the Capital
Chapter 454 Moving the Capital
When Liu He heard Sima Yi's words, he suddenly felt a slight shock all over.
In fact, to be honest, although he is very eager to get Cao Cao's territory, he is indeed having a headache about what will happen after welcoming Emperor Han back. After all, the other party is the supreme leader in name of the Han Dynasty. Huo Duo will leave a notoriety in the history books in the future. As for the so-called forcing the Han Emperor to abdicate, this is also an act of deceiving a fool, because even a fool knows the benefits of being an emperor, and it is absolutely impossible to voluntarily abdicate to a virtuous person, let alone today. The son of heaven is not only not stupid, but also very smart.
I used to build a force in the name of the emperor. Now that I have captured Xudu and welcomed the emperor back, it is a matter of course to return the power. Liu He deeply knows that whether it is in the court or under his command, there are some People are loyal to the Han Dynasty and hope that the emperor will be free. If he refuses at this time, he will naturally be the next Cao Cao. If he agrees, wouldn't all the previous efforts be turned into water?
What's more, he also knows that his cheap father Liu Yu is loyal to the big man. It would be fine if he died, but he is still alive now and will never accept his usurpation of power. Liu Yu's feelings for him are sincere. He also didn't want to break his old father's heart, and really hoped to find a solution that had the best of both worlds.
And the most important thing is that if Cao Cao leads the army to fight to the death, then Liu He will definitely lose a lot of troops, let alone use these troops to guard against the winners of the Sun Liu War and annex the losers, even if it is unnecessary, These are also elite soldiers who have been cultivated by Liu He so hard. They are the foundation for Liu He to dominate the world. How could he be willing to let them suffer like this?
Now Sima Yi has figured out his destiny, that's why he came to negotiate with Liu He so confidently.
"Let's talk about your conditions first." For the real generation of traitors, Liu He didn't bother to pretend anymore, but wanted to open the window with Sima Yi and have a good talk.
"First of all, my lord's condition is to return your father and give up Yanzhou and Yuzhou. My lord only needs to keep Qingzhou and Xuzhou. Of course, the Hebei part of Qingzhou has been occupied by Duke Qin. Naturally, my lord will not regenerate. think……"
"Oh? If these conditions are not enough, I believe that even if I really break Xudu, Cao Cao would not dare to do anything to my father. Even if he doesn't want to live, does he want to implicate his entire family? As for the emperor, I have my own way to deal with it, I believe it will work out naturally." Liu He's eyes were filled with energy, and he said with a smile on his face to Sima Yi.
But Sima Yi said: "Of course these conditions are not enough. Xuzhou and Qingzhou will also belong to Yi in the future. Qin Gong only needs to allow the court to exist for three years. After three years, I promise to solve the emperor's affairs for you."
"Hey, what you said is light. If you don't keep your promise, what can I do to you?" Liu He still sneered with disbelief on his face.
"Hehe, I don't need to remind you of this point anymore? Qin Gong has a million troops, and I, with the power of my little Qingzhou and Xuzhou, can I still stop your attack? Could it be that Yi is so reckless?"
"Mr. Zhongda, it's good that you understand this." Liu He admired Sima Yi's sense of taste, nodded, and then said: "Tonight, I will call the soldiers of the three armies to celebrate in the camp. At that time, the north gate will be empty. Brother De can lead the clan and hundreds of officials to leave from there."
"Xiaguan understands that although everything is a little nervous, I will definitely arrange it properly." Sima Yi quickly agreed, and at the same time smiled bitterly in his heart: "This Liu He is really ruthless. Even if the negotiation succeeds, the result will not He will take the initiative to let us go, but let us implement the plan of moving the capital in the form of fleeing, but now we are under the roof, how can we not bow our heads? What's more, even if it is embarrassing, it is Cao Cao's embarrassment, what does it have to do with me?"
After Sima Yi left, he explained Liu He's meaning to Cao Cao. Cao Cao was really dissatisfied when he heard the words, and said loudly: "In this way, let me be a majestic prime minister, how can I face the people of the world in the future?"
But Sima Yi said: "The opponent's strength is too strong, and our army is newly defeated, so we can't resist at all. If you don't compromise, you will only die. We will bear the humiliation for a while, so as to plan for the future."
"Hey, can our army have a future?" Cao Cao couldn't help but sneered and said with a sad face.
"At the very least, the lord can save the lives of the clansmen. If he persists like this, it is estimated that the lord will not even find a place to stand, and Liu He will lose some vitality at most. With his current strength, it will only take a few years at most to change his life." Victory today, which one is more important, please think twice, my lord."
"Since that's the case, then let's do this. Come, please Situ Hua."
Cao Cao sighed, and ordered Hua Xin to be invited. Not long afterward, Hua Xin arrived. Cao Cao asked him to coerce the emperor to lead all the officials to pack up and leave Xudu at night for Xiapi. Anyone who obeys will be killed without mercy, and the emperor threatens his wife, Queen Fu, and the son born to Queen Fu. If he does not comply, he will kill Queen Fu and her children.
Hua Xin originally took refuge in Sun Ce, but was recruited into the court by Cao Cao. Later, he was won over by Cao Cao, and was helped by Cao Cao to the position of Situ.
After Hua Xin received Cao Cao's order, he led his troops into the palace, threatened the lives of Emperor Xian and the family members of the officials, and forced them to agree to the move of the capital. After that, he urged them to pack up and gather in front of the south gate of the palace at two o'clock in the evening. , Staying at midnight, quietly opened the palace gate and city gate, and set off for Xiapi.
Although Emperor Xian and Baiguan were unwilling to leave Xudu, they had no choice but to bow their heads under the coercion of each other, so they had to pack up and prepare to move the capital.
At this moment, I saw Xun Yu risking his life to break into Cao Cao's camp, admonishing him: "Prime Minister, in the current situation, it is really inappropriate to move the capital, because as long as the capital is moved, our army will completely lose the two prefectures of Henan and Yanzhou, and it will be difficult to take them back. Sima Yi has evil intentions, so don't listen to him. Yu heard that the former Taiwei, Mr. Liu, was not dead. The prime minister can coerce Liu He to retreat. Liu He is cruel, ruthless, and resourceful. It's hard to deal with, but his greatest weakness is affection, as long as he cooperates with Liu Taiwei, no matter how unwilling he is, he can only retreat..."
"Hmph, I know better than you what kind of person Liu He is. Xun Wenruo, I know that your heart is for the Han family, and you are dissatisfied with my promotion of you in secret. This persuasion is not for my own good. Do you want to borrow a knife to kill someone?"
Cao Cao snorted secretly, did not listen to Xun Yu's suggestion, but ordered Xun Yu to be thrown into prison and taken to Xuzhou together. If it wasn't because moving the capital to kill people was unlucky, he would probably have killed Xun Yu with a scar at that time.
Not long after, the Second Watch arrived. Under Cao Cao’s personal supervision, more than ten thousand people including Emperor Xian, hundreds of officials, palace officials, and family members gathered quietly outside the south gate of the palace. The gate of the North City had already been opened, and the crowd quietly left Xudu and headed for Xuzhou.
