Chapter 2 078 Like a tiger adding webbing Cao Mengde

"Cai Zhong, Cai He? Why are you two here? In Jiangxia City, Cai Mao hurried back to the mansion and saw his two clan brothers lying on the table gobbling up!

"Brother, brother! You've been gone for a few years, and our brothers thought we'd never see you again in this life! As soon as Cai Zhongcai and the two saw Cai Mao, they dropped the dishes and chopsticks and cried there!

"You are! How did you get down to such a field? Back then, the two dogs of the Kuai family dedicated Xiangyang to Liu Bei! How did you two escape? Cai Mao left Jingxiang for a few years, and suddenly saw that his clan brother was still alive, and he was also full of emotion in his heart, and he hurriedly asked at the moment!

"It's a long story, after the Kuai clan dedicated Xiangyang, my brothers were supervising the construction of naval warships. When the bad news came, we couldn't take much care of it, so we took a group of brothers and hastily loaded some grain and grass, and drove the newly built warships of the navy to a hidden place on the Han River! I just want to wait for the day when Brother Ah can come back to avenge Sister Ah and them, and restore the glory of the Cai family back then! But I waited for four years! Cai Zhong recalled the days when he hid in Tibet in the past few years, and the rumors were all soldiers, and he couldn't help but sigh!

"How did you get here in the past four years?" Cai Mao let the two of them sit down, and asked after ordering the subordinates to serve tea!

"How did you get here, after hiding the battleship! Our old brothers were all scattered, some of us were engaged in petty trade, some of us made a living fishing on the Han River, and some of our brothers volunteered to stay behind to guard the warships! Because of the fear of being detected by Liu Bei and Sun Quan, over the years, those brothers who guarded the warship have never left the place where the ship is hidden! All the food supplies are brought to them regularly by our scattered brothers! Brother, bitter! Bitter brethren! Cai Zhong Cai He mentioned the past, and the tears were uproaring!

"Where are those ships now?" Cai Mao is currently most concerned about the warships that are hidden by Cai Zhong and them, Cao Cao has enough soldiers in the navy at the moment, and what he lacks is warships! If he can sacrifice these ships this time, then his position will be even stronger!

"Warship, my brother has heard that now that the prime minister is heading south, the soldiers have reached Jiangxia! And you, brother of the clan, have also been promoted to the governor of the navy under the command of the prime minister, and our brothers have gathered those old brothers together! At this moment, the warship is docked at Xiakou Port, knowing that the clan brother is not stable at the moment! We have decided to dedicate these warships to you, brother of the clan, and then you will dedicate them to Prime Minister Cao Cheng! When you gain a firm foothold under the Prime Minister, my brother will have a good future! When my brothers have their beginnings, the Cai family may be able to restore their old status in Jingzhou! Cai Zhongcai and Cai Mao heard Cai Mao ask about the whereabouts of the warship, looked at each other and smiled!

"Good! is worthy of being my Cai Mao's good brother! When a certain person dedicates the warship to the prime minister, he will ask for an official position for the two of you! In the future, this Jingzhou is still my Cai family's final say! Cai Mao didn't expect her two clan brothers to be so upright, and she was overjoyed to promise Cai Zhong and Cai He!

"My two brothers will rely on my brother in the future!" Cai Zhongcai and Wen Yan got up together, hugged their fists and said to Cai Mao! It's not that they didn't think about directly offering the boat to Cao Cao, but they know their own family affairs! With the two hits in their hands, even if Cao Cao is given to a big official, they can't do it! On the contrary, it is better to sell it here in Cai Mao first, and then mix an official and a half-job under the clan brother, which is far more comfortable than under the prime minister!

"Well said, well said! They are all their own brothers, and if my brother has it in the pot, it won't be short of what you have in the bowl! Two virtuous brothers, let's go to the dock to see how about the warship? Cai Mao patted her chest and picked it up, and then proposed to go and see the warship!

"It's good! Brother please! Cai Zhongcai and Cai He each took a step back, hugged their fists and asked Cai Mao to go first! This petty flattering gesture made Cai Mao more and more satisfied with these two brothers!

When the three of them came to the wharf water village together, they looked at the dense size of the large and small fighting ships docked along the river! Cai Mao only felt a burst of ecstasy in her heart! Previously, he thought that Cai Zhongcai and the two of them would be able to get thirty or fifty warships if they stood up to the sky, but at this time, he was afraid that there would be hundreds of warships of all kinds! Although most of them are shipped, the number of them is huge! "If this is dedicated to Prime Minister Cao Cheng, are you afraid that you won't be reused?" Cai Mao's heart was hot for a while!

"These are all warships that the two virtuous brothers hid in? How did you do that? Cai Mao swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva and said!

"Brother, these are all the credits of those old brothers in Jingzhou who followed my brothers back then!" After that, Cai Zhong pulled out a red cloth from his pocket and waved it a few times!

"See General Cai!" About tens of thousands of people came out of the large and small warships, and they all knelt down to Cai Mao on the shore and bowed!

"Come with me to see the prime minister! There is such a big commotion here, if we wait for the prime minister to send someone to ask, the great work I am waiting for may be cut in half! "Cai Mao knows Cao Cao too well, not to mention hundreds of ships, what does tens of thousands of people mean by kneeling down at the dock Cai Mao? Once Cao Cao becomes suspicious, let alone the future future, it is difficult to say whether he can maintain his current status!

When they were young, the three of them came to Cao Cao's residence, which was originally the garrison general's mansion! Now it has been rested for a while, and it has been changed to Meng Dejun's accommodation!

"Cai Mao, you are in a hurry to see so-and-so, what's the matter?" Cao Cao half leaned on the couch, looked at the roll of bamboo slips in his hand, and asked without raising his head!

"Prime Minister Qiyu, the clan brothers under his command led hundreds of warships today, and more than 10,000 sailors came to defect! The command wants to dedicate all the warships and sailors to the prime minister! Cai Mao clenched her fists and replied softly!

"Oh? Hundreds of warships and more than 10,000 sailors? Cai Mao, you have made a great contribution this time! You know, what is missing right now is a warship! As soon as Cao Cao heard that Cai Mao was coming to give him a boat, he immediately became interested! put down the bamboo slips, stepped down and helped Cai Mao and the three of them who knelt on the ground one by one, and said warmly!

"The last general doesn't dare to take credit, but the two clan brothers of the last general have always admired the prestige of the prime minister! After hearing the prime minister's soldiers, he took a lot of trouble to bring a warship and a group of old brothers to come to meet him! Cai Mao said modestly! He knew that Cao Cao had always disliked people who were proud of their achievements! Xu You's example is profound enough, and he Cai Mao doesn't want to be Xu You's second!

"Good! If you have merit, you can't go unrewarded, and your two clan brothers will succumb to your name for the time being, how about making a contribution first? And Cai Mao, your credit, a certain note first. When the land of Jingchu and Wuyue is pacified, there will be a reward! Cao Cao was very satisfied with Cai Mao's humility in front of him, patted him on the shoulder and promised!

"But it's up to the prime minister to decide!" When Cai Mao heard this, he hurriedly led Cai Zhongcai and the two of them to bow their heads and hug their fists!

"Now that a certain vested person is helping each other, it is tantamount to adding wings to a tiger! Hahaha! No, it should be said that it is like a tiger with fins! Cao Cao saw that Cai Mao was meaningless, and he praised the three of them a few words of praise there!
