Chapter 40: Terran Summit
The location of the Terran summit was chosen in Nanchang, where no other forces are currently stationed, but in the end, it is the territory of the Yellow Turban Army, so Cao Cao was the first to send people over, also to contact Zhang Ning. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"The principal of this party is no longer Zhang!" When the envoy personally came to the door with the invitation letter, Zhang Ning pointed to Chen Tao beside him.
"I heard that the Heavenly Demon Lord was about to marry Sect Master Zhang, but I didn't expect it to be true. If you can't bring a congratulatory gift, please don't be surprised. The envoy was also polite, and when he heard this, he bowed to Chen Tao and confessed his sin.
"He who does not know is not guilty, but he does not know why Your Excellency has come this time. By the way, I don't know your ...... name" Chen Tao took the invitation letter and looked at the messenger.
"The foreign minister is Chen Qun, who is under the command of Cao, and is currently mainly responsible for external relations. This time, the lord plans to borrow Nanchang to hold a Terran summit, as long as the meeting is over, everyone will leave, I have heard that the Heaven Shaking Demon Lord is generous, I think it should not be strange to think about it......" Chen Qun first introduced himself, and then flattered.
"When is Cao Cao qualified to convene the Terran Summit?" Chen Tao raised his eyebrows.
"My lord went south this time, and saw that the human race was still fighting on its own, and the various forces seemed to be ready to move, worried that they would continue to fall into endless internal friction, and finally benefit the demon and demon clans.
Remembering that he had also issued a discussion of Dong Wei in the past, and had the experience of organizing an alliance of heroes, he took the initiative to convene a Terran summit, and only hoped that all the principals could unite with the outside world. As for the name, it is not forced...... "Chen Qun's infinite amount is too high Cao Cao's image, and in the end it also left a trap for Chen Tao.
Since Cao Cao is dedicated to the public, even his name can be abandoned. So if Chen Tao snatched the identity of the caller, wouldn't he seem to be a little too utilitarian? , it is directly a moral bondage!
Besides, Chen Tao really doesn't plan to take over this trouble. From the call to site construction and maintenance, I don't know how much to invest. The Taiping Sect itself does not have a very good reputation among the family and other forces, and it will not be beneficial to hold this meeting, but it will have to pay to help arrange it, and a fool will do that.
Then Chen Tao understood, no wonder the other party was so indifferent, it turned out that he had already calculated this, this was a trick!
Yang Mou is like this, he knows that it is a ploy but has to compromise. It doesn't matter if Nanchang gives it to Cao Cao, but the caller must ask Cao Cao and the Taiping Sect to co-name, and they must take advantage of it somewhat, and the name must be in front of Cao Cao.
It's just that he didn't expect Chen Qun to agree directly, so smoothly that Chen Tao was speechless again.
When he left, Chen Tao learned the reason from Guo Jia: if Cao Cao himself called for it, then maybe the appeal was still a little worse, but if it was a joint Taiping Sect, then even the Southern Party had to take it seriously. In other words, while we took advantage of it this time, we were also taken advantage of by Cao Cao, and it was a conspiracy.
"It looks like you're going to have to deal with those guys in the future...... I can't play it! Chen Tao couldn't help but sigh.
"What the lord said is wrong!" Tian Feng stepped forward, "This is a win-win situation, and there is no need for us to refuse." It is true that the human race cannot continue the civil war, and even if Cao Cao does not convene the summit, other forces will convene it, so why bother? Moreover, the lord can accept it, which is also a manifestation of the lord's concern for the future of the human race, and the other party is just taking advantage of the lord's benevolence. ”
"Well, even you've flattered me, what else do I have to say." Chen Tao smiled, Tian Feng said so much about people who are so upright, so he doesn't seem to have anything to be angry about.
The summit was held fifteen days later, and since most of the people in charge were cultivators now, it wouldn't take too long to gather. Besides, this time it has been made clear that each person can only bring three followers, so it is naturally easier to travel.
The venue of the meeting is in Nanchang, only 200 miles away from Chaisang, and it only takes three hours to arrive if you are in a hurry, and it may take about an hour to arrive if you use the Wind Charm at full speed.
This time he went south, and the three people who accompanied him were Guo Jia, Yang Feng and Long Er. Needless to say, Guo Jia can ask him for advice at any time as a think tank; Long Er is the captain of Chen Tao's personal guard, and it is normal to follow him; The reason why he brought Yang Feng instead of others was mainly because of his talent in beast control.
"These are thirty spirit rats, they don't have much attack power, but they're definitely good things to sneak around and listen to information. How to use it, I believe you should understand that these little guys are just consumables, so you can use them with confidence! Chen Tao handed over a cage of spirit rats to Yang Feng and commanded.
"Lord, what my subordinates are good at is battle formations and sword techniques, but they are not beast ......" Yang Feng was a little helpless.
"Isn't it impossible to find someone who can replace you, let's do it first! Besides, this time going south, the escort work can't all be handed over to Long Er, he is only in the late stage of foundation building, and you are already in the early stage of Baodan's cultivation, so you have to take care of it! Chen Tao admonished.
Yang Feng had no choice but to take over the cage.
After receiving the approval, Cao Cao, who had established a stronghold in the Anseong area, immediately sent people to set up the scene. After more than ten days of arrangement, a large-scale conference site has been arranged. Considering that this is a Terran summit, there will not be as many people as the Alliance, so a tent that can accommodate five people is set up according to the number of invitations sent out.
Admittedly, there are only three people from each force, but who doesn't want to live a little wider? The kind of tent that can only be squeezed into three people is too cheap to live in!
The food and wine, and even the food, vegetables and meat that welcomed everyone during the conference were prepared. What made Chen Tao speechless was that Cao Cao knew that he could buy materials through spars here, so he only brought a small amount of food over, and most of the materials were purchased through spars.
Chen Tao doesn't care, anyway, he has a profit, since Cao Cao sent him money, let him send it!
"There are eleven forces in this alliance, namely Yuan Shu, Liu Biao, Cao Cao, Sun Jian, Liu Bei, Shi Xie, Wang Lang, Yan Baihu, Liu Xuan, Liu Zhang, and the lord. It is said that it is the Terran summit, but it feels like it is a spoils sharing conference...... "When Chen Tao and the others entered the tent, Yang Feng had already finished listening and came back to report.
There was no need for him to elaborate, Chen Tao already understood. The three parties in Jiangnan combined to be in charge of more than eleven, but Cao Cao only invited eleven. In other words, this meeting is obviously a spoils sharing conference, and those who do not come will not have the opportunity to come again in the future.
"The others are okay, but I don't know why the three guys, such as Liu Bei, Wang Lang and Yan Baihu, are qualified to come to the alliance? Or what conditions does Cao Cao value? Chen Tao was very curious about the list.
"I think it's judged from the perspective of development potential and strength. Liu Bei aside, Wang Lang and Yan Baihu are both the strongest existences in the Southern Party, but counting the two of them seems to be quite a bit of a make-up meaning...... There are too many northern parties and too few southern parties, which has attracted protests and vigilance from others. Guo Jia thought about it and replied.
Chen Tao thought about it, and felt that maybe it might be like this! (To be continued.) )
