Chapter 3331 New Plan
Cao Cao was very imposing on that day, and the most worried problems had been solved. The remaining problems were not problems. Therefore, he was no longer as conservative when fighting as before. He fought with Barak on the periphery of Kandahar, forcing Barak back.
The powerful offensive made Barak, who had not originally planned to fight out, decisively turn defense into offense, and that night Cao Cao received even more explosive news.
"Is there something big happening? Didn't Lu Ziming all rushed in?" When Chen Gong came in, he saw Zhang Xiu, Xiahou Yuan and others in it, and he was shocked.
"New information is here, from Zhongda." Cao Cao said expressionlessly.
Chen Gong was stunned when he heard this, "Is Sima Zhongda's side defeated? Well, even if he can't beat it, it shouldn't be very fatal. Their strength is still very strong, and the iron cavalry with short legs is not that easy to kill." As he said, he took Cao Cao's secret report.
"Hmm?" Chen Gong's voice suddenly increased by eight degrees, "Just kidding!"
"Zhongda will not joke about this." Cheng Yu retorted.
"I'm not unaware, I'm just surprised!" Chen Gong said angrily, "Can the miracle state really repel three talents five times? According to our previous estimates, isn't it already the limit to withstand three times? It's too exaggerated to be able to repel five times, and the battle-loss ratio is simply unbelievable."
"It's really incredible, but it's the fact. Although it's made up from many aspects, the combat power of the Iron Cavalry really exceeds our estimates." Cao Cao nodded and said, "I have sent a report to the rear of Duan Zhongming to ask Chang'an to posthumously award him official positions and posthumous titles."
"Deploy troops from the rear." After reading the secret report, Chen Gong directly pressed the secret report on several cases and said with a serious expression.
Cheng Yu pressed Chen Gong. This was one of the few times when he hadn't argued with Chen Gong. No matter what happened before, as long as Chen Gong spoke, Cheng Yu would definitely pick on the tricks. Also, as long as Cheng Yu spoke, Chen Gong would stand up and pick on the tricks.
"All the people who are professional in water conservancy are transferred here. The irrigation area in Herat can be used as the rear. The frontier base is rebuilt here. Didn't the Sang family propose to cut off the Helmand River, re-arrange the water network, and reset the outer periphery of Kandahar. Can countless fertile fields be formed? Let him come." Chen Gong directly suggested that they had many professionals under their command and it was time to work.
In fact, the Kandahar irrigation area in later generations was actually built on the Helmand River. It is precisely because of the cut off the Helmand River and the use of the water network in a more scientific way, making this place a must-fight place between empires in later generations.
When Chen Xi sent the main force in the Central Plains to go abroad, he also provided a lot of resources. He also arranged several people under Cao Cao for such personnel who were proficient in water conservancy construction. Of course, these people were roughly equivalent to big bulls in the industry, and the rest were graduate students and doctoral students led by big bulls.
When we were competing with Beigui for the Lezistan Desert, some people engaged in water conservancy came here several times under the protection of their soldiers. After several field investigations, the Sang Family in Luoyang, the Wang Family in Lelang, and the Li Family in Shu basically confirmed that the outer periphery of Kandahar had the value of transformation.
The three professional water conservancy personnel all gave design plans. Although the plans are slightly different due to personal personality and academic issues, the people sent by the three families all agreed that after the water network transformation, the outer area of Kandahar can maintain a population of about 400,000 by extensive grazing and rough farming. If you work hard, this number can be doubled.
Of course, the middle-aged man from the Sang family believed that if Cao Cao was willing to pay another portion of money and get a batch of experimental fields from the Qu family and conduct detailed research, he should be able to raise more. After all, if he farms, the Qu family is very professional. Of course, this refers to the students of the Cookie, not the Qu family. In the words of these people, the Qu family still needs a generation of talent.
In short, this group of people solved the problem of Cao Cao's foothold when he was attacking Kandahar, but Cao Cao had never thought that he could gain a foothold in Kandahar so quickly, so he sealed the research content of these three families. Now the Western Liang Iron Cavalry damaged the group of Kampir's guards. The plan, which originally thought it would take at least one year to activate, seems to be able to activate it now.
"Transfer people to conduct on-site inspections, conduct precise measurements, and then pull the engineering team over to build permanent buildings here, and directly occupy the place. Compared to Herat's side, it is only a matter of time to gain a foothold here, and it is only a matter of time to capture Kandahar." Chen Gong said very seriously, "Transfer the people of Zao Captain come here."
"I agree with this plan, too." Cheng Yu said slowly, "Even if there may be dangers when transferring it, as long as we stand firm, we can almost say that we can reach the sky in one step."
Kandahar is not very difficult for Cao Cao to fight. In fact, Herat is not considered the 60,000 new shield guards. Cao Cao still has tens of thousands of elite soldiers there, but the distance between Herat and Kandahar is too far, and there is still a desert in the middle.
It is precisely because of this liver-harm terrain that Cao Cao could only mobilize part of his army. If there were too many troops, the logistical pressure would be really unbearable. Although Cao Cao was the type who dared to fight the other side as long as he had one day, the food supply could not be increased, and for Cao Cao, he was really unconfidant to fight.
Therefore, after the Sang family, Wang family and Li family jointly guaranteed that the irrigation area could be built on the periphery of Kandahar, Cao Cao knew clearly that the first step to attack Kandahar was to take down this place, then turn it into grain production land, and replenish grain and grass on the spot to attack Kandahar.
But I had always been afraid of Kapil's five three-talent talents, and I was not sure to stand firmly, but now the opportunity seems to have come.
"We can actually talk to Barak." Chen Gong knew what Cao Cao was worried about, and he was also worried, but he had to take risks this time. If he didn't take risks, he might not be able to stand in this position again next year. At that time, he would produce grain for a year and make half a year of strategy. The time to win Kandahar would be the fastest time to win the year after tomorrow, not to mention Kabul and Khyber behind him.
If Beigui's heart-wrenching terrain really delays this, even if Cao Cao can win, it will take too much time. Now, as long as you stand firm here, you can save at least a year.
"Barak cannot be moved." Cao Cao shook his head and said, "It is impossible for the general who can be arranged by Vesutva I to betray him. Moreover, even if he betrays him, he will not get anything."
"No, it's not about moving, nor about getting something, but about making Kapil and the others suspicious." Chen Gong shook his head and said, "Kapil's position should be unstable after this battle. To be honest, Barak, as long as we are, he can't chew, he is indeed very good in defense. The positions he chooses are all convenient for defense."
Cheng Yu nodded silently. He already understood what Chen Gong wanted to do, and their subsequent behavior might just be a proof. If Kapil's status is unstable, he will inevitably pay attention to Barack, who has the most impact on his position.
"Is it a plan to disagree?" Cao Cao looked thoughtful, "It's okay to give it a try."
"Please borrow Princess Qinghe for seal." Chen Gong said to Cao Cao. Cao Cao was stunned and looked at Chen Gong with his eyes narrowed.
Cao Cao's eldest daughter, Cao Wan, who was the same mother as Cao Ang, found that Liu Tong counted the number of royal families and found it was too miserable. So he waved his hand and gave Cao Cao's eldest daughter and Sun Ce's sister the title of the princess. Now they are all princesses. Cao Cao is Princess Qinghe, while Sun Shangxiang is Princess Le'an.
As for Liu Bei's eldest daughter, she was a princess, there was nothing to say about this. Who made the Han Dynasty insufficient royal relatives? Liu Tong had a lot of vacancies when he issued the title.
Besides, it is not like before that, as needed to pay salaries, fiefs, fiefs, etc. to these princesses, as they used to be. Liu Tong gave them an empty title.
Anyway, Liu Tong didn't believe Liu Bei, Liu Zhang, Liu Yu, and Liu Ai, the royal families of Liu surnamed families would come to ask her for salary just because she gave her the title of princess to her daughter.
As for Cao Cao and Sun Ce, it is even more impossible. Each person has the title of princess. You can find a way to get the rest. Of course, there will be no salary or anything else.
On the contrary, when Cao Cao and Sun Ce received the imperial edict, they were very happy to say that this was not the case. Then they accepted the imperial edict and gave Liu Tong more gifts during the Chinese New Year.
For this reason, some people who thought they were very arrogant but did not get the title of princess, and privately yelled that this was a high-end selling of official positions and titles. Yes, they were talking about Yuan Shu. When they saw that a group of people's daughters had all received the title, he was very unhappy.
Liu Tong sneered at this, saying that the two direct descendants of your Yuan family have no daughters, why are you yelling about it!
It is said that Liu Tong put all the funds for supporting the royal family that Chen Xi gave to Liu Tong every year in his pocket, but he didn't pay a penny. During the Chinese New Year, he secretly asked the rest of the royal family for New Year's money and openly received various gifts from the princes. After observing over the past few years, no one except Si Niang and Han Xin could take away money from Liu Tong.
Cao Cao naturally didn't understand what Chen Gong's plan to dissuade him before, but with the words "The Princess Qinghe seal", Cao Cao is not a fool, how could he not understand?
"Sikong can rest assured. Just borrow it. Barack can't even see anyone. This is just a reason." Chen Gong shook his head and said. Cao Cao was obviously completely different from a few years ago. A few years ago, Cao Cao would not consider these children's affair.
