Chapter 3 Section 012 Persuading Pound (Explosion 5)
Xuchang City, in the Prime Minister's Mansion!
"Xun Yu! What has Liu Bei been doing recently? Cao Cao asked Xun Yu who was standing aside!
"Prime Minister, Liu Bei originally wanted to take Hanzhong, and then join Ma Teng to jointly crusade against our army! It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, he never expected that Zhang Lu would surrender to the prime minister, and give up the Hanzhong to the prime minister! But Ma Teng couldn't wait, and took the lead in attacking the prime minister, but in the end, some soldiers were defeated and died, and Liangzhou was also lost! I expect Liu Bei to lose the opportunity, this time I am afraid that he is fighting in Xichuan, in order to come to the future! ”
Xun Yu folded his hands slightly, and told Cao Cao in detail what he thought in his heart!
"Makes sense! Hanzhong is surrounded by mountains, easy to defend and difficult to attack! I think that Liu Bei won't be so stupid! Before you have a firm foothold in Xichuan, you are ready to go to war! Cao Cao looked at the map spread out on the table, found the location of Hanzhong and said to Xun Yu!
"What the prime minister said is very true!" Xun Yu smiled and owed a debt!
"That Sun Quan seems to be very quiet lately!" After saying Liu Bei, Cao Cao was a little worried about Sun Quan again! Liu Bei, he is really not afraid! But after the lesson of the fiasco in the Battle of Chibi, Cao Cao inexplicably felt a little jealous of Sun Quan!
"The prime minister can rest assured, then Sun Quan is currently in addition to supervising the training of his subordinates! The most concerned is how much silver has been added to his treasury this month! In the short term, there shouldn't be any changes in him! Xun Yu knew in his heart that Cao Cao was scared of being beaten in Chibi!
"Silver!? According to rumors, the biggest hobby of this lord of Jiangdong is to hide in the dormitory and play with silver yards? Speaking of Sun Quanlai, Cao Cao suddenly remembered an interesting story about him!
"Huh! It's really hard to say! There are many false rumors in today's world, so let's listen to it as a joke! Xun Yu really didn't know if this rumor was true or not, so he had to reply to Cao Cao like this!
"Hmmm! It's a good idea to listen to jokes once in a while, and to relax! Haha, the dignified Wu Hou actually has this hobby! As soon as Cao Cao thought of this stubble, he couldn't help but feel funny!
"Where in Hanzhong, can there be enough grain, grass and ordnance?" After laughing a few times, Cao Cao asked Xun Yu again!
"Back to Prime Minister, although Hanzhong is surrounded by mountains, the road is dangerous! However, there are many fertile fields in its territory, and over the years, Nazhang Lu has accumulated a lot of grain and grass, which is enough for the 30,000 horses and horses belonging to General Miaocai to eat for more than a few years! The prime minister doesn't have to worry about food and grass! "What Xun Yu must do every day is to deal with Cao Cao's various problems! Therefore, he knows everything about everything in the territory of his territory!
"So good! Give Miaocai an order so that he must not slack off. If Liu Bei has any changes, he must send someone to report it immediately! Cao Cao rubbed his temples and commanded Xun Yu!
"Whoa!" Xun Yu lowered his head and wrote what Cao Cao had instructed on a wat carved from ivory, and said softly!
"I almost forgot one thing, where is Pang De, who slashed Han Sui in front of the battle that day?" Cao Cao suddenly remembered that the affectionate, righteous, and fearless Xiliang fierce general Pang Delai came!
"Back to the prime minister, he is still imprisoned in Xuchang Prison, just waiting for the prime minister to make a decision!" Xun Yu replied when he heard this!
"Take me to see it! Such a fierce general, it is bound to convince him to be used by me! Cao Cao got up and said to Xun Yu!
After walking for half an hour in a carriage, I arrived at Xuchang Prison! Following the dim light and stepping on the somewhat slippery stone steps to the prison, Cao Cao couldn't help but cover his nose and frown! The air in the prison was so turbid that the smell of feces and urine entered his lungs with his breath! This smell simply made Cao Cao feel unbearable!
"Prime Minister, the prison is no better than the outside! It's pretty clean, so bear with me for a moment! On the other hand, Xun Yu did not change his face and persuaded Cao Cao softly!
He's right, compared to cells elsewhere! The environment in the Xuchang prison can be regarded as one of the best, and there are no other debris on the ground except for some slippery! Behind the fence made of stout logs is a cell separated by a stone wall! In each cell there will be a commode, a low table, and a stone bed covered with straw!
It can be seen that this place is cleaned every day! Cleaning is cleaning, no matter how much you toss it, this is also a prison cell after all, first of all, the air is very turbid and stuffy! Even though on the high stone walls of the cell, a one-foot-square vent was chiseled every hundred steps to circulate air! However, the area of the cell was too large, and as soon as the fresh air from the small window came in, it was assimilated by the turbid air that had been entrenched in the cell for a long time!
"General Pang, don't come to Chang'an, is it okay?" It was easy to endure the disgusting smell and find the place where Pang De was imprisoned under the leadership of Xun Yu! Cao Cao brushed away some of the sundries on his body, and sang a fat promise to Pang De, who was closing his eyes and recuperating!
"The Prime Minister is so good, Yaxing, so-and-so is fine! There is food and drink here, and I don't really want to go out! Pang De opened his eyes and saw that it was Cao Cao, and immediately closed his eyes again and said sarcastically!
"General Pang, the two armies are fighting for their own masters! If there is a victory, there must be a defeat! Moreover, the result of that battle is far from being redeemed by the general with a single shot! Don't say these negative words! Cao Cao lifted the hem of his robe, sat on the chair that the jailer brought for him, and said!
"Ma Teng, dead! Ma Chao, run! Most of the Xiliang Army also fell apart and went their separate ways! General Pang is a hero, does he really want to live in this prison for the rest of his life? Cao Cao slowly introduced the real situation to Pang De one by one! At the end, I also asked Pound emphatically!
"People live for a lifetime, grass and trees for an autumn! Why did the eldest husband come when he was born in troubled times? It's nothing more than fighting for a future with the three-foot green edge in his hand! is as stupid and pedantic as General Pang, what a good martial arts in vain! A few years later, who will remember you, Pang Lingming, the fierce general of Xiliang? To be a man, even if you can't be immortal, you must be able to leave a stench for 10,000 years! Only in this way, it is not in vain that you have come to this world for a while! I don't know what General Pang thinks he said, but is it? ”
Cao Cao didn't care if Pang De was listening, and talked there endlessly!
Pound, who had closed his eyes and recuperated at this, suddenly opened his eyes! Obviously, Cao Cao's words reached his heart!
"Ling Ming! Think a little more about yourself! In this environment, if you live for half a year longer, you dare to assert that what you have learned will be wasted! By then, you'll just want to make a difference, and it's too late! Learn the art of literature and martial arts, and sell it to the emperor's family! At that time, I'm afraid that even if you want to sell, you won't be able to find a buyer! When the husband encounters something, he will be broken! When the interruption continues, it will be chaotic! ”
Cao Cao saw that his persuasion had an effect, and immediately continued to bother with his lips!
After half an hour, Cao Cao got up and prepared to go home! He is ready to come back tomorrow, and he will not give up if he does not say that Pound is used by him!
"Prime Minister, a certain is willing to serve!" As soon as he walked to the door of the prison, Pound's roar came from behind him!
Hearing this, Cao Cao couldn't help laughing!
