Chapter 165: The Emperor's Words
In Yuan Shao's account, more than a dozen people gathered together.
It was supposed to be a moment of heated discussion and argumentation, but there was silence in the tent, and a dull atmosphere enveloped everyone.
Yuan Shao raised his head and saw faces that were either blank or decadent, and sighed again and again in his heart.
Who would have predicted this situation? Who would have expected Liu Yuan to be such a mythical figure?
Invincible!
Yuan Shao let out a long sigh.
In the face of such people, thousands of troops are all paper bales of straw, useless! What's more, this Liu Yuan is the most powerful person in the entire Han Dynasty!
"The Lord"
Xu You lowered his head and muttered there for a long time, and finally raised his head and shouted.
"Hmm" Yuan Shao replied lazily, as if he had lost half of his energy.
"Lord, do you still remember the message that Lord Taifu said yesterday?" Xu You said lightly.
"Hmmm, remember?" Yuan Shao replied lazily, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and immediately lifted his spirits: "What does Ziyuan mean?"
"Lord!" Xu You stood up, bowed to Yuan Shaochang to the end, and turned to everyone present: "Have you lost confidence?!" ”
Everyone looked at Xu Yu inexplicably, not knowing what he meant. Liu Yuan can defeat thousands of troops with the strength of one person, and he has nearly a million troops under his command, who in this world can be the enemy?
"Ladies and gentlemen! Liu Yuan, the king of Yuyang, is indeed very powerful! And it's more powerful than ever! However, don't forget, he Liu Yuan was also born by his mother! It's also flesh and blood, and it's also a person! ”
"As long as you are human, you have weaknesses!"
"As long as there is a weakness, it can be defeated!"
The more Xu Yu said, the more excited he became: "The lord was born in the fourth world and the third duke, his status is noble and prominent, and the lord's connections are all over the world, and his reputation spreads far and wide in Kyushu, which is not half a point worse than Liu Yuan, how can he not be qualified to seize this great river and mountain?" ”
"As long as the plan is proper and the plan is safe, as long as you try to kill Liu Yuan, then who else in this world is the opponent of the lord?! You just have to do your best, and it is no problem to pay homage to the Hou Hou in the future! ”
"Well said!"
Yuan Shao heard Xu You's words, and suddenly felt that he had ascended to the throne that ten thousand people looked up to, as if all ten thousand people had surrendered in front of him, and the mountain shouted long live! In an instant, Yuan Shao's chest was full of pride, and his face was full of spirit!
He stood up suddenly, shouted good, and said: "My uncle Yuan Kui Taifu has prepared everything, just wait for Liu Yuan to return to Luoyang, and then implement the plan, then Liu Zihong will definitely die without a place to be buried!" I don't believe it, he can be King Kong without being bad, and all poisons will not invade! ”
Cao Ying returned to the headquarters camp, and ignored the different thoughts of the generals under his command, just walking back and forth there, his eyebrows were full of thoughts.
After a long time, Cao Ying paused and drank: "Yuan Rang, Miaocai!" ”
Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Chun were in a trance, when they suddenly heard Cao Ying's voice, and hurriedly stood up in a panic: "The last general!" ”
"You two will follow me to see Kong Wenju, and the rest of the generals will go back to their headquarters to appease the people."
After speaking, Cao Ying strode out of the tent.
In the Northern Navy Camp, Kong Rong was sitting in the tent, holding a shabby blackened bamboo slip in his hand, muttering something. His face was flushed, and he looked very excited.
At this time, a soldier came to report, saying that Cao Ying and Cao Mengde asked to see him. Only then did Kong Rong come back to his senses and put down the bamboo slips, calmed down the excitement in his heart, and asked Cao Ying to come in.
"Why did Meng De want to come to see the old man in person?"
Kong Rong smiled, looking very happy.
Cao Ying clenched his fists slightly and said, "Cao has some doubts, I want to ask Mr. Wenju for advice, and I hope that Mr. will give him advice." ”
"Oh?" Kong Rong was interested when he heard this, so he said, "You come here." ”
Cao Ying stroked the short beard under his chin, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Just before the battle, I heard that Mr. said what the emperor of heaven and earth, what realm of the emperor of people, I was very puzzled. When I returned to the tent, I couldn't be at peace, so I had to come and ask for advice. ”
Kong Rong's body stiffened when he heard this, and the smile on his face immediately receded. Facing Cao Ying's eyes full of strong curiosity, knowing that he would not give up if he didn't get an answer, Kong Rong pondered for a while, and finally nodded, and said, "Okay, since Meng De must know, the old man will talk to you in detail." ”
When Cao Ying heard this, his face was happy, and he said, "The younger generation listens to you." ”
"Hmm." Kong Rong knocked his fingers on the desk and pondered for a long time before he said: "Meng De must know that the old man is the twentieth grandson of the Confucian sage Confucius. My Confucian family has been inherited for nearly a thousand years, and there are many ancient books in my home, telling about ancient things. ”
"It was said in ancient books that the martial arts of the three emperors in the past were all mysterious, condensed the realm of the human emperor, and then unified the human race and achieved the great cause of the emperor of all generations! Today, it is said that Liu Zihong, the king of Yuyang, is in a battle, and the old man looks at it, and his martial arts field has the appearance of a human emperor! ”
"The appearance of the human emperor?" Cao Ying was puzzled, and then realized: "Indeed, the Han family is about to fall, and with Liu Zihong's world-class martial arts, it couldn't be easier to reunify." ”
Cao Yingfei is a weak scholar, and his martial arts are not trivial. But because of this, he has a more intuitive understanding of Liu Yuan. With Liu Yuan's martial arts and the forces behind him, if he wants to conquer the world, he is absolutely invincible.
Cao Ying believes that Liu Yuan's martial arts are so powerful that they can be described as a nuclear bomb of the people's hearts, and he will definitely win a hundred battles on the battlefield with millions of soldiers, and no one can do it. What's more, as long as Liu Yuan is more ruthless and plays an assassin or something, who would dare to be his enemy?
If anyone is an enemy, kill them all!
Just like Liu Yuan dealt with the alien races in the northern Xinjiang, he wiped out his clan!
Therefore, the glimmer of ambition that rose in Cao Ying's heart not long ago collapsed in an instant!
"Neither nor not!" Kong Rong understood what Cao Ying meant in an instant, and said: "Thinking about the three emperors and five emperors, who has achieved their achievements by absolute force?" Emperor Fu Xi fixed the people and played gossip; The emperor of the earth Shennong planted grains, tasted herbs, and wrote herbs; Although the killing spirit of the Human Emperor Xuanyuan was a little heavier, he definitely did not ascend to the throne of the Human Emperor only by force! In their lives, these three have made unparalleled contributions to all aspects of the human race, and they are promoted as co-masters! ”
"If by force, the soldier master is much more powerful than the Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, then why is the Yellow Emperor on the throne and the soldier master dead?!"
Looking at Cao Ying, who was full of thought, Kong Rong continued: "The reason for this can be summed up in a sentence from Liu Zihong - those who win the hearts of the people win the world!" ”
"Whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world? Whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world"
"Yes, the people's will is invincible!" Kong Rong sighed again and again.
"So to speak"
"So, although Liu Zihong's martial arts are extraordinary, he is invincible, but this is not the main condition for him to become the co-master. In other words, in the civil war in China, Liu Yuan's methods of dealing with foreign races will definitely not work! For example, if Meng De and Liu Zihong fought on the battlefield, Liu Zihong would never slaughter soldiers with his absolute force! ”
"To become a co-master, you must be convinced by everyone in the world before you can succeed! Otherwise, even if you dominate the country in a short period of time, it will be a mirror, just like the tyranny of the First Emperor, it will not last! ”
After listening to Kong Rong's words, Cao Ying fell into deep contemplation.
Liu Yuan can't rely on absolute force, then
Opportunity!
Cao Ying's eyes flashed.
"I don't think I'm worse than Liu Zihong, so why can't I get to that high position?"
At this moment, the flame that was gradually extinguishing in Cao Ying's heart rose and grew uncontrollably in an instant!
Looking at the undisguised look on Cao Ying's face, Kong Rong smiled helplessly and sighed deeply.
Is this world really so tempting?!
Countless heroes have bent their waists!
"Mende"
"Huh?" When Cao Ying heard this, he immediately stopped what he was thinking and raised his head.
"Are Meng De thinking that you yourself will not do worse than Liu Yuan?" Kong Rong said: "I wonder if Meng De has been to Youzhou in the past few years?" ”
"To Youzhou?" Cao Ying laughed dryly and frowned again, why did Kong Rong say this?
"The younger generation has also held an official position over the years, and he has never been to Youzhou."
Indeed, it was Liu Yuan's wedding a year ago, and Cao Ying couldn't spare time to watch the ceremony.
"So did Meng De know a rough overview of Youzhou?" Kong Rong asked again.
"Well, I've heard of it." Cao Ying said: "I have heard many times that Shang Jia said that Youzhou is rich and can be described as gold everywhere. Hehe, businessmen have no faith, everyone knows it. Gold everywhere, big talk! ”
Indeed, with the rapid development of Youzhou over the years, merchants from all over the Han Dynasty came in and out. Therefore, the general situation in Youzhou really can't be concealed. However, in the imperial court, in the family, and in the eyes of the magnates, Nayouzhou has always been a bitter cold place. No matter how rich you are, how rich can you be?
Although I have heard many times that the merchants in the market talk about Youzhou, the vast majority of people just take it as a joke.
Moreover, there are shadows in Youzhou, and the minions of the major forces cannot reach in, which means that the real situation in Youzhou is still shrouded in fog so far.
Moreover, Liu Yuan has had several foreign wars, and the scale is huge. The last time I used a million soldiers! The consumption of materials is huge, you can imagine! Therefore, even if Liu Yuan has tried to develop Youzhou in recent years, the few materials he has accumulated are probably all consumed in those wars.
So in the end, Youzhou is still so poor!
Although there are many soldiers, there is no war potential, this is the consensus of the world on Youzhou!
"Hehehe" Kong Rong smiled, shook his head, didn't say much, chatted with Cao Ying a few more words, and then sent off the guest.
With a little doubt, Cao Ying returned to the headquarters camp with a relaxed body, and said a little about what Kong Rong said to the generals under his command, arousing the belief of the generals, so he did not mention it
Luoyang North, Mengjindu.
Gan Ning has been attacking and harassing from time to time in the past few days, because he has the initiative, but he is very relaxed, it doesn't look like a war, but like a tour.
In contrast, Meng Jindu, Zhang Ji, Zhang Xiu's uncle and nephew, and the 50,000 army were much sadder.
Always on guard against the irregular attacks of the enemy army in the river, Zhang Ji's uncle and nephew are anxious. You have to ignore it, and you are afraid that the enemy will take the opportunity to attack the water village; You have to pay attention to it, the enemy army is so cunning that people can't catch their tails.
Hateful! It's really hateful!
On this day, Gan Ning was about to wave his army to play with Mengjin Xiliangjun, but received a message from Feiying. When I opened it, it turned out to be a letterhead from Gao Shun, the deputy general of the Huai County and Zhou Army on the north bank.
"Hahahaha, the brothers of the state legion have arrived, turn the bow of the ship, and we will go to meet you!"
Gan Ning stood at the bow of the ship and laughed, and with a wave of his hand, the fleet immediately turned around and headed straight for the north shore.
