The world is so big, why did Cao Cao coerce the Son of Heaven to move to Xudu alone?

The world is so big, Cao Cao coerced the Son of Heaven to move to Xudu only because of Xun Yu's persuasion. Xun Yu said to Cao Apu: Han is the king of fire, and Cao Gong is a native of the earth.

Xu Du belongs to the land, and he will prosper here. And fire can give birth to soil, and soil can flourish wood, which is in line with the words of Dong Zhao and Wang Li. He will be prosperous in the future.

Cao Cao was also superstitious about the Five Elements, so he moved the capital to Xudu.

Because I listened to Yang Xiu's opinion. At that time, Cao Cao was fighting with Guan Yu, and was defeated and retreated, and he wanted to withdraw his army but did not dare to withdraw, so he issued a military order. At this time, Yang Xiu gave his opinion, moving the capital Xu can contain Guan Yu, and it is not easy to break through.

Because Xu Du is Cao Cao's lair, the place where Cao Cao has operated for many years, and the place where he has the deepest roots, of course he will move to Xu Du.

Because Xu Du was closer to the center of the Central Plains, and also close to his own territory, he had the masses and material base, and it was also convenient for him to send troops to conquer other vassal states in the future.

It was because of Xu County at that time, it was surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the role of these three mountains was very large, and they could deal with enemy attacks, so Cao Cao moved here.

It is because the infrastructure of this place is relatively solid, plus the air and temperature are more suitable for human habitation, and this place is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Xu County is a particularly important geographical location, and Luoyang is also seriously damaged, so Xu County is the best choice.

Because he made his fortune from Xu County, Xu County is his base camp, so he will move the capital to this place.

Because this place is more conducive to his rule over the country, and it can also change the minds of many people and make the country stronger.

Because Luoyang had been seriously damaged at that time, and the geographical location was becoming less and less advantageous.

There are three Xuchang cities in history, Zhang Pan is the ancient city of Xudu of Han and Wei dynasties, which was destroyed in the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties; Xutian Village, Chen Cao Township, Jian'an District, was the county seat of Xuchang in the Tang Dynasty, and Bai Juyi once wrote "Xuchang County Chengting Wall Record"; The current old city of Xuchang was built in the sixth year of Gaozu of the Han Dynasty and was originally named Yingyin City.

Xuchang has Yuan Shao in the north, Lu Bu and Liu Bei in the east, Yuan Shu in the southeast, Liu Biao in the south, Zhang Xiu in the southwest, Guanzhong and Luoyang areas are also scattered with many remnants of anti-Cao forces, Xuchang is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the east is an open plain, Cao Cao can only choose this kind of place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, otherwise, it is easy to be wiped out by the forces on all sides.

Luoyang was burned down, it cost a lot to build, the population loss was too great, and it was too close to Yuan Shao, so Cao Cao at that time did not have the strength to compete with him. Xu County, the capital of Yanzhou, has a large population and has not suffered much damage. At that time, Cao Cao's territory was so small, and the best choice was Xuchang.

Xuchang belongs to Yingchuan County, is the gathering place of talents of the Three Kingdoms, Yingchuan Academy, Xun family, Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia and other Cao Wei masterminds are all in Yingchuan. The local politics in the late Eastern Han Dynasty is actually the politics controlled by the clans, and at the local level, the orders of the first are not as effective as the local clans, Cao Cao must have discussed with his subordinates when he moved Emperor Han Xian to Xu County, and Cao Cao wanted to use the local prestige of Xun Yu and others.

Cao Cao's base Xuchang, through the strategy of cultivating the fields, developed rapidly in a few years, compared with the base areas of other warlords, Xuchang has sufficient grain and grass, and the economy is very good, even in the year of the great famine, Xuchang can maintain a normal life.

After Cao Pi became the Han Dynasty, the political and military center of Cao Wei moved southward, and Xuchang's status rose day by day. After Cao Pi became independent on behalf of the Han Dynasty, Xuchang's political and military status began to rise. At this time, Cao Wei's foreign combat area changed from North China to the Jianghuai region, and the southward and westward movement of the battle line made Xuchang have advantages in both the Chinese army's expedition and the transfer of grain and salary, and could save a lot of manpower and material resources.

Because the city was a place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack at that time, it was relatively stable, and even if it was surrounded by enemies, it would be difficult for the enemy to break in, so it was chosen as the capital.

I think this is because Xuchang is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the geographical location is very superior, so Xuchang will be chosen as the capital.

Xuchang is a transportation artery, and it is very convenient to transport grain and grass, and Cao Cao must be able to expand his influence here.

Because he wanted to choose a new place for his new dynasty as Kyoto, which would be more worthy of his identity.

Because this place is more suitable for governing the country, and it is also very convenient for expanding the land, he also wants to be the king independently.

Because the topography of this capital city is not particularly good, and this capital city is already dilapidated.

Because Cao Cao wanted to have his own capital, he didn't want to move the capital to the original capital.

To be on the safe side. After moving the capital, you can put yourself in a favorable position, which is conducive to defense.

Because this incident at that time had already had a certain impact on the Wei State, and it also put the country in a dangerous state at that time.

Because the situation in Luoyang at that time was already very serious, and Luoyang was also wreaked out, it was no longer possible to continue to set the capital in Luoyang.

Because he intends to be emperor here, and it is more convenient to manage, and it is also conducive to the expansion of their land.
