Chapter 494: I didn’t become an emperor during my lifetime, but I became an emperor after my death.
It was very difficult for the ancients. The roads were too dilapidated at that time. Even riding in a horse-drawn carriage would be very bumpy. If you got motion sickness or something, it would really be fatal.
Most places are mud roads. It's okay if it doesn't rain, but if it rains, you'll be covered in mud and it's slippery, making it difficult to walk.
"What do you think, little immortal? Oh, it would be great if we could also develop cars like those in later generations," Cao Cao sighed. Most of their time during marching and fighting was spent on the road.
When others heard this, they were exactly the same. They were really envious of the means of transportation in the future. No matter which kind it was, the speed would be incredible.
Li Wu smiled and said, "There are so many things here, we can't eat them all at once, right? We need to develop them slowly. I believe that you, our ancestors, will definitely develop these things earlier and faster than us."
Even if God showed them these things, they wouldn't be able to make them.
However, she believed that the country would develop faster and better in the future, and the invasion of China would never happen again.
"You are right, little immortal. Many things need to be done slowly," Cao Cao laughed. Although he was envious, he was naturally clear about the actual situation.
The ancestors in front of the sky curtain were also discussing this issue, but they were more concerned about the affairs of their own dynasty, whether the traded items were produced well, whether the immortal seeds were planted well, and so on.
"Then I'll continue talking about you, Boss Cao.
Boss Cao, after you arrived at the battlefield, you confronted Ma Chao's army across Tongguan.
Boss Cao, you delayed Ma Chao and secretly let Xu Huang, Zhu Ling and others occupy Hexi and set up camp before dark.
Later, Ma Chao was defeated and fled to Xiliang, and Boss Cao pacified Guanzhong.
In the 17th year of Jian'an, Emperor Xian of Han allowed Boss Cao to "pay homage without naming his name, and go to court wearing a sword and shoes."
In October, Boss Cao, you led your army south to attack Sun Quan.
At that time, Boss Cao, you claimed that you had 400,000 or 400,000 infantrymen, but we don't know the exact number. In a war, there were actually not that many people, and you were just exaggerating.
The following year, Cao's army entered Ruxukou, broke through Sun Quan's camp at Beijiang, and captured Gongsun Yang alive.
Sun Quan personally led an army of 70,000 to confront Boss Cao for more than two months, but in the end Boss Cao's navy was defeated.
In addition, the spring rain was pouring and the river water was rising. Boss Cao saw that it was difficult to win, so he withdrew his troops to the north.
Later, Emperor Xian of Han conferred the title of King of Wei on you, Boss Cao, with a fief of 30,000 households, ranking above all the princes. You did not have to call yourself a subject when reporting matters to him, nor did you have to bow when receiving an imperial edict. You were given the emperor's tasseled crown, chariots, clothes, banners, rites and music, and land for suburban sacrifices. When going in and out, you could be called a guard. The ancestral temples, ancestral temples, and festivals were all the same as in the Han Dynasty, and your capital was in Yecheng.
At this time, Boss Cao, although you are not the emperor in name, you have already become the emperor in reality.
It's just a name missing.
In the 22nd year of Jian'an, Emperor Xian of Han granted you, Boss Cao, a royal crown with twelve tassels, a golden chariot driven by six horses, and five deputy chariots. Your son Cao Pi also became the crown prince of Wei.
Emperor Xian of Han was a true puppet emperor, but fortunately, Boss Cao, you were not too bad to him. You never claimed the title of emperor in your life.
Until death, they are all Han subjects. "
This makes many people who don’t know Cao Cao confused. If not, why didn’t he become emperor?
Look at what he did, how is he different from the emperor?
"I have never thought about becoming an emperor," Cao Cao said frankly. He had never thought about it, at least he thought so now. As for the future, he didn't know. Besides, the little immortal also said that he never became an emperor until his death. Isn't that enough to prove his loyalty to the Han Dynasty?
The big man is powerless to change the situation, he just wants to change it.
"In the 20th year of Jian'an, you saw that Liu Bei had taken Yizhou, and Hanzhong was the gateway to Yizhou, so Liu Bei was definitely going to take Hanzhong.
So, Boss Cao, you took the lead and led an army of 100,000 to personally attack Zhang Lu in Hanzhong.
In November, Zhang Lu surrendered, and Hanzhong belonged to you, Boss Cao.
In the 22nd year of Jian'an, Boss Cao, you once again marched south and led your army to capture Juchao, stormed Ruxukou, and defeated Sun Quan. Sun Quan sent people to ask for peace, and Boss Cao agreed, and the marriage was re-formed.
After your main force, Boss Cao, withdrew from Hanzhong, Liu Bei launched an attack on Hanzhong.
In the end, Boss Cao, after confronting Liu Bei's army for several months, you gave up Hanzhong because it was unprofitable.
In the 24th year of Jian'an, Boss Cao, you personally led the army to withdraw from Hanzhong to Chang'an.
Liu Bei took advantage of the fact that the troops in Xiang and Fan cities were empty and ordered Guan Yu to launch an attack.
Boss Cao, when you found out, immediately send someone to rescue Fancheng.
In August, there was a heavy rain, and Guan Yu took the opportunity to attack by boat. At that time, there were only a few thousand Cao troops in Fancheng.
Boss Cao, you will go there in person to lead the rescue of Fancheng.
As for Sun Quan, he was above Guan Yu. He did not want to see Guan Yu's power grow, and he had long wanted to take Jingzhou, so he found you, Boss Cao.
Boss Cao, after receiving the letter, please inform Cao Ren to continue to hold on.
He also sent 120,000 troops to support Xu Huang and counterattack Guan Yu.
After a fierce battle, Guan Yu was defeated.
On his way to Yizhou, Guan Yu was captured and killed by Sun Quan's army.
Sun Quan also sent Guan Yu's head to Luoyang, and the Battle of Xiangfan ended.
When Cao Cao heard this, he laughed and felt a little sorry for Guan Yu's death. He really, really, really admired Guan Yu very much.
It’s a pity that Guan Yu was unwilling to follow him, otherwise he would not have died so early, right?
They fought so many battles, so many people died, and in the end the world fell into the hands of the Sima family. Ahhhh, when Cao Cao thought of this, he was so angry that he wanted to bite someone.
In front of the skylight, Liu Bei's eyes were red as he looked at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, both of whom were his good brothers.
Sun Quan touched his nose and said guiltily, "It hasn't happened yet, why are you looking at me?"
This hasn't happened yet, why are you still staring at him? Even if it really happens, so what? Can you still kill him?
This alliance or something, where is the real alliance?
Zhang Fei strode forward angrily, and the two sides almost started fighting. In the end, it was only after Zhuge Liang talked about the agreement that they stopped.
The people on Cao Cao's side were just watching the fun, and were a little disappointed when they saw that they didn't fight.
Sky
"Boss Cao, after Sun Quan killed Guan Yu and took Jingzhou, you made Sun Quan the General of Cavalry and the Governor of Jingzhou.
Sun Quan sent envoys to pay tribute and pledge allegiance to you, Boss Cao, and also advised you, Boss Cao, to replace the Han Dynasty and proclaim yourself the Emperor of Wei.
Of course, Boss Cao, you didn’t do that.
In the 66th year of Jian'an, Boss Cao returned to Luoyang and later died of illness in Luoyang at the age of .
Before your death, you left a will. According to your will, I was buried in Gaoling, a suburb west of Yecheng, on the Dingmao day of February.
After your death, Boss Cao, your son Cao Pi forced Emperor Xian of Han to abdicate, changed the Han Dynasty to Wei, and became the emperor. He posthumously conferred the title of Emperor Wu of Wei on you, with the temple name of Wei Taizu.
Although you, Boss Cao, didn’t become an emperor during your lifetime, you became an emperor after your death.”
