Chapter 228: The Blind Cat Meets the Dead Mouse (Second Watch)
Cao Cao laughed and said: "That's right, Cao Mou's reading is quite accurate, to be honest, you are all one by one, who has a bad complexion, Cao Mou can see it when he sees it, Cao Mou is wise, haha." ”
When Pan Long heard this, he grinned, and thought, come on, Cao Agui, don't put gold on your face, Lao Tzu's godfather Hua Tuo has such a ability, you are just a blind cat and a dead mouse.
Cao Cao laughed and then said to Liu Bei: "Xuande, what do you think?" Do you want to see His Majesty's dragon face? ”
What else can Liu Bei say at this time? Say no? Undoubtedly, it was to confront Cao Cao in public and slap Cao Cao's face in public, so that a fool would say this, Liu Bei was not a fool, so he could only pretend to be full of excitement and said, "Preparation, I can't ask for it." ”
When Cao Cao heard this, he slapped his thigh and said, "Okay!" Tomorrow I will enter Xuchang with Cao, and when the time comes, I will let you see His Majesty's dragon face, Your Majesty is very handsome, to be honest, more handsome than Cao, haha. ”
Cao Cao's words were very boring, everyone was basically playing soy sauce, except for Liu Bei and Zhang Fei, they didn't say a word, and the meeting dispersed silently.
After everyone dispersed, Cao Cao called Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, and Pan Long to the back for a small meeting, and the content of the meeting was confidential, and ordinary people were not allowed to know.
Cao Cao also stood this time, the four of them stood on both sides, Cao Cao sighed long, and said: "The problem of Liu Bei staying in Xuzhou is solved, but it has not fundamentally solved the problem, today I will talk about the question of whether to kill Liu Bei, Liu Bei is very cunning, one set on the surface, one behind the back, very good at winning people's hearts, in just a few years, he turned the people of Xuzhou into his own people, the people of Xuzhou are too kind, and they have suffered too much, which is to blame for their ignorance, first deceived by Tao Qian, Later, he was poisoned by Liu Bei, so Cao wanted to save the people of Xuzhou.
The most important thing is to solve Liu Bei's problem, Liu Bei, if you want to kill, you have to find a suitable reason, if you want to use it, you must also have something to use, Cao feels that in addition to Guan Zhang, Liu Bei has no usability at all, but he killed Liu Bei, and he was afraid that Guan Zhang would also rebel, because he was a brother three times, not to be born on the same day and month of the same year, but to die on the same day and month of the same year, what an amazing oath, one person died, two people died together, Cao felt that it was not worth it, such a practice is not advocated, to get back to the point, should Liu Bei be used, or should he be killed? Liu Bei has already given Cao a headache, Cao has never been so hesitant to do things, even if he misses a lot of things, Cao has never hesitated, but this time, Cao has a headache for Liu Bei for some reason. ”
Guo Jia arched his hand and said: "The reason why the lord has a headache is because Liu Bei still has something to use, Liu Bei can't be killed, his subordinates have said before that Liu Bei has made war exploits, if he kills it, he will be resented by all the people in the world, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to the lord, and if Yuan Shu is not removed, the lord can also use him." ”
Guo Jia still insisted on his previous opinion, Cao Cao sighed after hearing this, and asked Cheng Yu again: "Zhongde, what do you think?" ”
Cheng Yu said: "Lord, Liu Bei, the sooner he kills, the safer he is, and the people of Xuzhou will let him stay when they make hundreds of clothes, it can be seen that he is not an ordinary person, and ordinary people do not have such a great appeal, we must not let Liu Bei have a chance to turn over, Liu Bei is a diving dragon, once he turns over, it will set off a shocking wave, and when the time comes, I am only afraid that the waves will sweep the world, and it will be difficult to contain it." ”
Cao Cao nodded and said, "Killing him is a matter of stabbing, but what is the reason?" ”
Xun Yu said: "Lord, the reason is very simple, just give him a charge of rebellion." ”
Cao Cao sighed: "It's easy to say, but to kill Liu Bei, the first to rebel must be Xuzhou, Xuzhou is reversed, then it will stir up a thousand waves with one stone, Sun Ce may take the opportunity to go west, Yuan Shao may sneak attack Xuchang, Zhang Xiu is more likely to sneak attack Xuchang, so Liu Bei's name and hypocrisy have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it is really difficult to kill him." ”
Xun Yu said: "My lord, even if the people rebel again, what kind of rebellion can they create?" They are not an army, they have no force, and they don't have decent weapons, hoes, steel forks, although they are also said to have some lethality, but it is of no help at all, and most of the people are afraid of death, and the lord has stopped the people of the three counties before. ”
Referring to this incident, Cao Cao's face changed significantly, became extremely heavy, like a black cloud, directly pressed on his face, Cao Cao once carried out massacres in the three nearby counties, killing nearly 300,000 innocent people, Tao Qian died in Xuzhou, Cao Cao avenged his father, and could not attack for a long time, all because the people actually fought together, resulting in countless deaths and injuries among the soldiers, Cao Cao was annoyed and ashamed, and killed more than 200,000 people in the city after the capture, which was very similar to the behavior of the Japanese emperor, and his methods were cruel, and he did not dare to think about it.
So Xun Yu mentioned this matter, Cao Cao's head man was blinded at once, he was most afraid of others mentioning this matter, and he obviously regretted it, but he has always been a person who knows his mistakes and corrects his mistakes and does not admit his mistakes, and he doesn't want to use that kind of means to harm the people anymore.
So Cao Cao sighed and said: "Xun Yu don't want to say it again, Cao doesn't want to kill the people anymore, and he doesn't want to see the people rise up against Cao, if that time comes, Cao will really become a sinner for thousands of years." ”
Pan Long naturally knew about it, and felt that Xun Yu was sometimes very smart and sometimes stupid, but he was still smart for a while, and he was confused for a lifetime, and he only left these eight words in his life, and all other behaviors were aiding and abetting.
Xun Yu stopped talking, and Cao Cao came to ask Pan Long again.
Pan Long said: "Lord Sikong, since you have promised to take Liu Bei to Xuchang, you will take him first, and the matter can only be taken one step at a time, Liu Bei is now a major general, and he cannot pose a threat for the time being, and when he arrives in Xuchang, he will find a way to rectify him." ”
Cao Cao nodded and said, "That's all." ”
Cao Cao said goodbye and ordered everyone to disperse.
At night, Pan Long also had to carefully consider Liu Bei's problem, Liu Bei obviously wanted to let him go, not only to let him go, but also to let him continue to grow, otherwise Qian Huai would lose the meaning of following Liu Bei.
Qian Huai didn't know that he was an incubator, and Pan Long felt the need to let Qian Huai know that it was essential to plant a seed in his heart in advance.
So, Pan Long came to find Qian Huai.
Qian Huai has always been reused by Liu Bei, in fact, here in Liu Bei, it is impossible not to prepare for reuse, Liu Bei's generals are only a handful, for a poor ghost, it is already good for someone to follow.
The mansion is very large, there are two rows, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Qian Huai, Sun Qian, as well as Liu Bei's two eldest brothers, Liu Bei's two wives.
After Pan Long inquired about people, he successfully found Qian Huai's room, and after coming to Xuzhou, Pan Long also saw Qian Huai a few times, and every time Pan Long wanted to greet Qian Huai, he was missed by his hurried pace, and he seemed to feel that he couldn't raise his head in front of Pan Long and his party.
