Chapter 209: Self-inflicted

After living in the villa for more than half a month, Cao Miao walked out of the villa for the first time and returned to Luoyang City.

Before visiting the Taiwei Mansion, Cao Miao first went to the Great Sima Mansion.

Cao Xiu's injuries are getting better, and he can already get up and walk. It's just that the wound on his back is very deep, and he is over half a hundred years old, and his physical fitness is not as good as before, so it is impossible to recover as before. The hard military career was no longer suitable for him, but no one dared to say it to him.

The only thought that sustains him alive is revenge. If you don't let him take revenge, you will want his life.

Cao Miao didn't like Cao Xiu, and felt that this person was not qualified to be a big Sima in terms of ability or bearing. What a thousand miles of horses, Lao Cao is really a good mouthful of poisonous milk, and most of the things he has praised have not been good, either he died early or died late.

"Thank you for the recommendation of Da Sima, I'm going to Yangzhou." Cao Miao said to Cao Xiu, with a neat big white tooth, so she had to smile very fakely.

Cao Xiu glanced at Cao Miao, his hands were a little itchy, and he wanted to hit someone. He had already understood the meaning of the Son of Heaven from the mouth of Cao Zhaozhi, and Cao Miao agreed to Jiangdong in the line to prevent Sun Quan from becoming emperor, but he had to organize his own actions and did not listen to the command of the Yangzhou Prefecture.

His idea of taking the opportunity to teach Cao Miao a lesson fell through.

"That's what you're here for?" Cao Xiu pinched his fingers and tried his best to calm his mood, not to lose his posture and lose his identity as an elder.

"Of course not." Cao Miao said: "I'm going to visit Taiwei, and I'm going to see Da Sima by the way, and there is one more thing I want to discuss with Da Sima." ”

"What's the matter?"

"The last time Desi ambushed the father and son of the captain, he fought well, especially his personal ability. I wanted to ask him if he would be interested in walking with me. ”

Cao Xiu was slightly stunned and uneasy. "Accompany you to Koto?"

Cao Miao nodded with a smile and said meaningfully: "Da Sima won't be reluctant, right?" ”

Cao Xiu's face became ugly.

He was in favor of Cao Miao Xingjian Jiangdong, originally wanted to bring Cao Miao under his command, let him make some merits, reward him for saving his life, and teach him a lesson, let him know that it is not easy in the army, and don't be so self-righteous. Now that Cao Miao finally agreed to go, but he was not restrained by him, he had no interest in caring about it.

He knows better than anyone how dangerous it is to be in the army, and the casualties of those assassins and meticulous work sent out are the highest among all units in the army, and they can even be compared with Xiandeng. For the vast majority of people, this kind of line is a life of nine deaths, and there is no return, which is called death in the art of war.

Letting Cao Su go is equivalent to letting Cao Su die.

But after all, this matter has his share, and it has the meaning of being ashamed of him. If he pitied Cao Su and didn't let him go, how could he explain it to outsiders?

Your son's life is life, but Cao Miao's life is not life? This face was lost by you, not by Cao Zhi.

If Cao Miao repeated this and refused to make the trip, the Son of Heaven would blame him, and he would not be able to explain it.

No matter what aspect he said, Cao Xiu couldn't open his mouth. It's really a shot in the foot, and it's shattered.

"What are your plans?" Cao Xiu barely calmed down and asked a key question. He wanted to hear about Cao Miao's plan. If Cao Miao's plan was too wild, he wrote to the Son of Heaven to cancel the operation. There are many ways to teach Cao Miao a lesson, and the cost of catching up with Cao Su is too great.

"I don't have a specific plan yet, but I need Da Sima to provide me with some reliable and capable people. I intend to organize a squad to provide support if necessary to respond to the retreat. I think Des can be the commander of this team. ”

Cao Xiu nodded. "Are there any specific requirements?"

"You don't need too many people, but you must be all-rounders, you can ride horses, you can handle boats, you must be familiar with close combat, riding and foot combat. People should be smart, preferably with an accent in the Jianghuai area, so as not to show their ......"

Cao Miao said a lot of requirements in one breath. Cao Xiu listened very carefully, and looked at Cao Miao from time to time. The more he listened, the more he felt that Cao Miao's plan was good, at least he had thought about it seriously, there were many details that seemed absurd, and when he thought about it carefully, it was reasonable, even exquisite.

For example, JAC accent.

There is a big difference between the JAC accent and the Jiangdong accent. But the world has been fighting for so many years, Jianghuai has been a battlefield and has fought repeatedly, and the people have long since fled, and most of them have fled to Jiangdong, especially in the Jianye area.

There were many tuntian areas along the river in Sun and Wu, which were specially designed to provide food for the soldiers stationed there. Many of these Tuntian soldiers were ordinary people who had fled from Jianghuai. Inside and outside Jianye City, a large number of Jianghuai people have gathered. They left their homes and had no land, and in addition to becoming tribes and tenants of the Jiangdong clans, they made a living near the city, or worked as prostitutes, or as coolies, or did a small business to make ends meet.

Sun Quan had the strength to confront the Central Plains, and these people who fled from Jianghuai played a big role, and naturally formed a certain force. Especially when these people were linked with Huaisi generals to fight against the local clans in Jiangdong, it became an unstable factor within Jiangdong, and it was one of the opportunities that Cao Miao could take advantage of.

If he can incite a few generals to rebel, Sun Quan will have to weigh it if he wants to be emperor, at least maybe it will be slowed down.

Cao Xiu felt that Cao Miao's chances of success were much higher than he imagined, and he might really be able to win by surprise. He has commanded the army for many years, and he has never seen such a thoughtful spy as Cao Miao, and he has never seen such a detailed plan.

Perhaps, it is not a bad thing to let Cao Su go with him.

Cao Xiu thought about it for a long time and agreed to Cao Miao. He can let Cao Su follow Cao Miao, and he can also arrange some reliable manpower to provide necessary support, but he must keep abreast of Cao Miao's progress.

Cao Miao agreed. With Cao Su with him, he believed that Cao Xiu would not be so brain-dead that he would make a black hand behind his back and cut off his back road.

Cao Xiu called Cao Su.

Hearing that he could go to Jiangdong with Cao Miao to do something, Cao Su was inexplicably excited, and nodded his head in agreement. He didn't have as many worries as Cao Xiu, and now he just wanted to kill Jiangdong to avenge Cao Xiu's humiliation. As for the danger or something, he didn't pay attention to it at all.

In his opinion, with Cao Miao's advice, he and Ah Hu joined forces, and no one could stop them at all.

Seeing Cao Su flattering Cao Miao like a lackey, Cao Xiu's hands itched even more. He decided that before he set off, he must beat Cao Su hard.

Cao Miao said goodbye to Cao Xiu and took Cao Su to the Taiwei Mansion.

Cao Su didn't want to go, but Cao Miao changed his mind with a few words.

Cao Miao said, don't you want to take a closer look at your opponent? Sima Shi was beaten into a waste by you, Sima Yi harmed himself, but he didn't report it, do you think he wants to calm things down? You're wrong, the dog that doesn't bark is the most ruthless. Sima Yi didn't report it, not because he wanted to fight with your father and son, but because he wanted to keep this account in his heart, and repay it twice in the future with interest.

What should you do? Of course, he took advantage of his illness and wanted him to die. Even if you can't do it, you can be angry with them, and if you can anger them to death, it's a hundred.

Do angry people have to pay for their lives? If Da Sima is angry to death, will Sima Yi take responsibility?

Cao Su thought so and followed Cao Miao excitedly.
