"I said," looking at the ordinary hoe handed over by the envoy of the State of Chu in front of him, Cao Cao only felt the corner of his eyes twitch: "What does His Majesty the King of Chu mean by this?" ”

Tian Feng's face was slightly strange, and he coughed lightly and said: "Your Majesty thinks about Cao Gong, and hopes to help Cao Gong better penetrate into the people so that he can understand the way of strengthening the country, so he came up with this method." In the following period, Cao Gong could go to the farm in the north of Jinling City to study, and then return to Jinling after learning something. ”

Hearing Tian Feng's words, Cao Cao's face suddenly darkened.

You bad old man, a liar! A prince who went to the farm to study? What can you learn in that broken place, farming? If you really want to help me, why don't you open the most secret armories for me to see.

Cao Cao was not in vain after staying in Jinling for so long, and with Yuan Shu's acquiescence, except for some extremely confidential places, Cao Cao was allowed to visit and study in other places. In this process, Cao Cao not only had a comprehensive understanding of Da Chu, but also keenly discovered some secrets of Da Chu. But it's a pity that Yuan Shu is not so kind to share these key points with him. This is the hard work of many craftsmen in Dachu for more than ten years, and countless money and materials have been spent, and Yuan Shu attaches great importance to this.

Science and technology are the primary productive forces. Although it is not very reliable to be placed in this world where internal qi exists, it is indeed the most suitable path for Yuan Shu, who takes the route of elite soldiers. It is not only necessary to cultivate the most sophisticated troops with the best treatment and the most rigorous training, but also to arm them with the most advanced weapons, so that the combat strength of the army can be brought into full play.

Cao Cao wanted to break into the palace with the hoe in front of him and smash the hoe in Yuan Shu's face, but now that he was under the fence, this kind of obvious death was naturally undesirable. Since you can't resist, you can only bear it silently. Cao Cao, who knew the times as Junjie, saw Tian Feng's resolute look and knew that he couldn't dodge, so he took the hoe and knocked it on the ground with a sad and angry face.

Although Tian Feng was very sympathetic to Cao Cao in his heart, he still turned a deaf ear to Cao Cao's dissatisfaction, and said with a smile: "It's not early today, so Gong Cao, please rest first." Your Majesty Feng will send someone to pick you up early tomorrow morning, and you don't need to bring some personal belongings, and we will prepare them for you. ”

Yuan Shu's original order to Tian Feng was to let Cao Cao and them go in naked, wear cloth shirts and eat coarse grains to do farm work like ordinary farmers, and truly experience the pastoral life. Although Tian Feng was speechless about this slightly ridiculous order, he still carried it out without the slightest discount. With such a willful and somewhat childish majesty, Tian Feng was also very helpless.

"Understood." Cao Cao, who vaguely understood Tian Feng's voice, said indifferently: "Today, Cao is a little unwell, so I won't talk to Mr. Yuanhao, and ask Mr. Yuan Hao for forgiveness." Come, send off. ”

Although he has the posture of a corporal of Lixian on weekdays, Cao Cao, who knows a little bit about Tian Feng's personality, does not want to waste time meaninglessly on an iron bread man. In a bad mood, he closed the door directly.

Tian Feng also understood Cao Cao's current mood, shook his head with a little emotion, and turned around with his subordinates.

......

The next morning, in front of the farm, Cao Cao, who had been stripped of his clothes and replaced with a coarse cloth coat, was full of anger and took the hoe in his hand. At this time, the hoe is no longer yesterday's, because a black fat man with a short figure was inhumane in the morning and broke the original one in a fit of anger and replaced it with the current one. Plus, the price to pay is that someone's lunch is canceled today.

"Tian Yuanhao! Cao Mou was also a prince, what is Yuan Highway going to do? Humiliating someone? Although he had made a certain amount of psychological preparation, after a toss in the morning, Cao Cao couldn't help but get angry.

Tian Feng frowned when he heard this: "Cao Gong said cautiously, Your Majesty's name is not something you can call at will. If there is a next time, please don't blame you for pressing you into prison and punish you according to the law! ”

"You!" Cao Cao was so angry by Tian Feng that he was stunned for a moment.

As a figure standing at the top of the food chain of Da Chu, Tian Feng had to worry about Yuan Shu as soon as he started his temper. With his upright character, Cao Cao believed that if he made another stupid mistake, this guy would definitely not take into account the so-called situation and situation, and would definitely mercilessly cut him down and punish him. At that time, it was Yuan Shu who fished him out, and he lost his face. A good man doesn't suffer immediate losses, Cao Cao won't do such a stupid thing.

"In addition, Cao Gong is not allowed to reveal his identity here, only if you are an ordinary farmer. If you're spotted by a farmer on the farm, you'll have to change places. In addition, your daily workload must not be lower than the average of the entire farm, and we will send someone to supervise and inspect it, and if it does not meet the standard, your meal for the day will be cancelled. Tian Feng said mercilessly.

With his hands clenched, Cao Cao's face became more and more ugly, and he said coldly: "Can you tell me why Yuan Gong is angry with Cao?" Is it because of Liu Xuande or because of Yuan Benchu? ”

Tian Feng looked at Cao Cao's eyes, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Because of Yuan Benchu." ”

With that, he turned around and left.

Holding the hoe in his hand with both hands, Cao Cao gritted his teeth with a low face and said, "Yuan Benchu." ”

Cao Cao, who was full of anger, also turned away after receiving a reply, and followed the Chu soldiers disguised as farmers next to him to his work.

When he came to the field that belonged to him, three familiar figures appeared in front of Cao Cao's eyes.

"Liu Xuande, Chen Changwen, and Sima Zhongda." Cao Cao muttered in a complicated tone.

Under the scorching sun, on the field, the three of them were leaning over and working their respective fields.

Liu Bei's appearance here was expected by Cao Cao, and the appearance of the remaining two also made Cao Cao understand the reason why Yuan Shu asked him to come here to suffer.

"It's just the kindness of my own woman, and I still have to pull so-and-so, hum!" Cao Cao snorted softly in his heart.

"Brother Meng De, it's too late!" Seeing Cao Cao's figure from afar, Liu Bei stopped what he was doing and got up and greeted with a smile.

On the other side, Chen Qun and Sima Yi glanced up, lowered their heads and continued to be busy.

"Brother Xuande, you're really versatile!" Cao Cao swept his eyes, and the situation of the three fields was suddenly clear, and his tone was inexplicable.

Among the three fields that come into view, Liu Bei's one has completed the most, nearly one-third, while Chen Qun and Sima Yi have completed less than one-fifth, and the gap is obvious.

"When I was young, my family was poor, and I was used to doing farm work, but now I just go back to my old job. However, Brother Meng De is of noble birth, so I am afraid that he will have to work hard for a while. Liu Bei said with a slight teasing.

Cao Cao glanced at the large field on his side that had not been touched at all, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva, only to feel that the hoe in his hand weighed a thousand catties.
