Chapter 1030 grass on the wall

It is almost Cao Liang's tradition to hold a meeting every day. Even when you arrive at the camp during the march, Cao Liang will gather all the generals and counselors to hold meetings. Even if there is no urgent matter, such tradition will not be interrupted.

Cao Liang always believed that a person's ability is limited after all, and even if you are in detail, there will inevitably be omissions. He gathered all the generals and advisers to gather ideas so that he could avoid omissions to the greatest extent. One plan is short and two plan to play the best, and to use the collective wisdom to better make up for the shortcomings and minimize the mistakes.

At the same time, this is also an important way to cultivate the enthusiasm of civil and military officials. If everything is done by oneself and the counselors are useless, the generals are like puppets. A military camp is not lifeless. Everyone knows to act according to orders and has no initiative, so they will not have any responsibility. Such an army is just a mechanical army, without creativity, imagination, and even less vitality.

Therefore, if you want to mobilize the enthusiasm of everyone, you must give them an environment to speak freely. The establishment of this military council provides them with a good platform.

Before receiving Du Yu's letter, the generals and strategists only discussed some very conventional things, such as food, fodder, and weapons. When they saw Cao Liang laughing after reading the letter, everyone couldn't help but be puzzled.

Although the plan to win Youzhou first was decided, both Cao Liang and the generals thought that this would be a relatively difficult task. At this moment, Cao Liang only read a letter, but said that the major events in Youzhou were decided, which made everyone very curious. What was written in this letter that could make Cao Liang so confident to solve such a difficult thing.

Cao Liang first passed the letter to Huan Fan, and then passed it to everyone. After reading it, Huan Fan said, "Jiuqiu Jianlai is really a fence-bearer. When Sima Yi attacked Bingzhou with great momentum, he was accomplice for the tiger and invaded Youzhou. As soon as Sima Yi was defeated, he took the initiative to retreat and sent envoys to negotiate. I am afraid that no one in the world can match the skill of changing his power when he sees the wind."

Pei Xiu also laughed and said, "Du Yuankai's response was amazing. He almost fed the wild wolf after he left the wolves in the wilderness for half a day. Hahaha, it was ridiculous to think about the embarrassed appearance of the wolves. The people from the Youzhou Weiqiu family, who want to fight, and want to be harmonious, simply regard me as nothing in Bingzhou. This time, I will teach them some lessons and taste them. It is perfect."

Everyone smiled knowingly. In fact, everyone had no good feelings for the sages of the sages in Youzhou. Logically speaking, the sages were not Sima Yi's direct power, and there were deep grievances between him and Sima Yi. Sima Yi seized power in the Luoyang mutiny. As a chief official, the sages should have stood up like Cao Liang, like Wang Ling, and became a enemy of Sima Yi with a clear stand.

But Wuqiu Jian was afraid of Sima Yi's power and did not dare to openly disobey Sima Yi. He obeyed Sima Yi's order to attack Bingzhou. Although he did not do his best to attack Yanmen, he actually became an enemy of Bingzhou.

And his attitude of not working hard is not pleasing to both sides. He offended Bingzhou and angered Sima Yi. If the Bingzhou army did not defeat Sima Yi this time, then the next target to be dealt with by Sima Yi would definitely be the one who was defeated by Sima Yi.

Now that Sima Yi had just been defeated, Wu Qiu Jian immediately fell with the wind and took the initiative to show his kindness to Bingzhou. He was really an absolute fence-bearing man with the wind blowing over there.

Du Yu is not a good person. During the period when he was stationed in Yanmen Pass, he has not been disturbed by the Youzhou army for many times. He has no favoritism towards Wuqiu Jian. If you send an envoy, I have to abide by etiquette to entertain you. That is such a beautiful thing, Du Yu did not let the wild wolf swallow them, which is already kind enough.

Cao Liang did not argue about this. After all, he had sent someone to contact Wuqiu Jian before, hoping that he could abandon the secret and turn to the Ming Dynasty, fight against righteousness and support the country. However, Wuqiu Jian had been hesitant before the situation in Bingzhou was clear, and his attitude was also dark and unclear, so that the two sides fought a tug-of-war at Yanmen Pass for more than a year.

Cao Liang was obviously not surprised that Wu Qiu Jian suddenly sent an envoy to discuss peace. If Wu Qiu Jian continued to fight with a clear attitude like Lu Zhao, it would have been beyond Cao Liang's expectations.

However, this is obviously a good thing for Cao Liang. In terms of offensive strategy, Youzhou has been listed as the first choice by Cao Liang. If it can really achieve the goal of defeating others without fighting, it will undoubtedly be the best choice.

Of course, Cao Liang would not estimate the situation too optimistic. The main reason why Wu Qiu Jian was willing to be a fence-bearer was to protect himself. He regarded Youzhou's territory and army as the top priority. His face was only worth a few dollars for Wu Qiu Jian. So whether he obeyed Sima Yi or came to discuss peace actively now, his purpose was to maintain his status in Youzhou.

Therefore, it is simply nonsense to say that Wu Qiu Jian sent his younger brother Wu Qiu Xiu to Bingzhou and intend to surrender to Cao Liang. How could Wu Qiu Jian give it to others for no reason?

In Cao Liang's opinion, the biggest purpose of Wuqiu Jian's delegation to Wuqiu Xiulai this time was to form a mutual aid alliance with him. The result of the Bingzhou Battle finally made Wuqiu Jian see clearly that the Sima family is not invincible. As long as they join forces with Cao Liang, it is entirely possible to check and balance the Sima family.

Wuqiu Jian would not be loyal to Sima Yi, but he knew Sima Yi too well, which caused him to be deeply ingrained in fear of Sima Yi and did not dare to rebel at all. Now that Sima Yi failed, Wuqiu Jian immediately became tough. It is estimated that he has not received the news of Sima Yi's death yet. If he really knew that Sima Yi was dead, Wuqiu Jian would probably be more courageous and faster.

No matter what Wuqiu Jian thinks, it doesn't matter to Cao Liang. Whether it's an offensive and defensive alliance, or friendly and mutual assistance, as long as Wuqiu Jian breaks up with the Sima family, it's good news for Cao Liang. One more friend is better than one more enemy.

Now Cao Liang's biggest opponent is the Sima family. Uniting all the forces that can be united is Cao Liang's purpose. Only in this way can he strengthen himself and weaken the enemy and win the final victory.
