Chapter 1279: Asking for help

Jia Xu said with emotion: "Shiwei is a generation of heroes after all!" A respectable opponent too! I'm afraid that few people will be able to insist on being an enemy of the Empire in such a situation! ”

Cao Cao nodded. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

Jia Xu analyzed: "In fact, Shiwei's approach is not perfect! Once the truth of the matter is revealed, civil strife is inevitable! Unless he can achieve a decisive victory before the truth is fully unraveled! ”

Cao Cao smiled and said, "This is obviously impossible!" ”

Frowning, "Now the most important thing for us to consider is whether to send reinforcements to the south?" What do you guys think! ”

The cabinet ministers pondered for a moment, and Chen Gong said: "Your Majesty, judging from the current situation, our army no longer has any advantage, and reinforcements should be sent to the southern barbarians for the sake of insurance!" ”

Cao Cao nodded and glanced at the others.

Xun Yu hugged his fists and said: "Although our army's military strength in Nanban should be able to deal with the current situation, it is good to be cautious, not to mention that our army is currently not fighting in other places, so there is no need to worry about anything at all!" ”

Others echoed the same sentiment.

Seeing that everyone's opinions were unified, Cao Cao decided: "Since this is the case, then send 20,000 Yangzhou garrisons to the Nanban front!" "Your Majesty is wise!"

"That's it! So be it! Zhicai, has there been a result in the murder of the student? In the past two days, Zhang, Li, and Dong have kept coming to me to cry, which makes me very annoyed! Cao Cao looked a little annoyed.

Xi Zhicai replied: "I am about to report to Your Majesty!" Li Tianke, the waiter of the Criminal Department, has handed over all the files of the case to the cabinet this morning! ”

"Oh! So, the investigation of the entire case has been completed? ”

"Yes! This is a purely accidental criminal case! However, because the victim had committed a major fault in the first place, he was sentenced to ten years in prison according to the laws of the Empire! Xi Zhicai took out a piece of music from his bosom and presented it to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao looked at it and snorted coldly, "So that's the case, it seems that this person is also damned!" Very good, just announce it to the world! ”

"Yes!"

Xi Zhicai clenched his fists and promised, and then said with some concern: "Your Majesty, although this kind of treatment is legal and reasonable, but the scholars and the old Confucians are afraid that they will not give up!" ”

"What the hell do they do?!" Cao Cao looked displeased.

Xi Zhicai couldn't help but panic.

Jia Xu said: "Your Majesty, Zhicai's worries are not unreasonable! We should think of a way to make it impossible for them to get started! ”

Cao Cao calmed down a little and nodded, "What you said is good!" Wenhe, what are your ideas? ”

Jia Xu showed his usual sinister smile, hugged his fists and said, "Your Majesty, in fact, this is also simple!" Just describe the whole incident in detail at the same time when announcing the results! The mistakes made by the dead were one of the most despised acts of Confucianism! ”

Cao Cao smiled and said, "Hehe, not bad! Zhicai, just do it! ”

"Yes!" Xi Zhicai hugged his fists and promised.

Cao Cao picked up an article at hand, read it, and said with emotion: "This Li Dingbang is indeed very talented!" ”

The Li Dingbang in Cao Cao's mouth was actually the culprit of the murder case that caused an uproar in the entire scholar clan and Confucianism, and the article in Cao Cao's hand was specially found by Cao Cao after the case.

Everyone nodded approvingly.

Xun Yu said: "That's true, it's just too bloody!" ”

Cao Cao smiled, "This kind of character is suitable in the army!" But it's not suitable in the place! Let him stay in prison for a few years and sharpen his edges! ”

"Looking at what Your Majesty means, it seems that you plan to reuse this Li Dingbang?" Sima Fang guessed.

Cao Cao nodded, "Not bad!" I plan to let him go to the Western Regions to be Sima Yi's deputy, and then take charge of it alone! ”

After the cabinet ministers retreated, Cao Cao also got up and left the Qianqing Palace.

When I came to the corridor outside the Imperial Garden, I heard the delicate drinking in the Imperial Garden, and I couldn't help but be curious, and I quickened my pace and walked towards the Imperial Garden. As soon as I entered the Imperial Garden, I saw Cao Le, a little girl, dancing a big gun, which was nearly two meters long and Cao Le's small body in stark contrast, which was breathtaking. From time to time, the surrounding audience let out exclamations.

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment and walked up.

Cao Le, who was dancing vigorously, saw his father coming, and immediately dropped the big gun and ran towards Cao Cao, and the big gun smashed on the ground with a bang, kicking up a large cloud of dust.

"Father!" Cao Le screamed, and at the same time, the whole person rushed into Cao Cao's arms, hanging on Cao Cao's neck like a cute koala, and arching his sweaty head in Cao Cao's arms.

Cao Cao smiled and rubbed Cao Le's head, "You little guy, wiping sweat on your father's body?" ”

Cao Le grinned, very innocent.

At this time, Cao Cao's other children also surrounded and hugged each other.

Cao Cao laughed, picked up the children one by one and kissed them vigorously.

After a while, the task was finally completed.

Immediately, Cao Le, the child king, led a group of younger brothers and sisters to play elsewhere.

At this time, Zhen Mi, Li Qingtong, and Diao Chan's three delicate wives walked up to Cao Cao with a smile.

Cao Cao looked at the three wives and smiled, "Why are there only three of you?" What about the others? ”

Diao Chan pursed her lips and smiled, "They all have business!" ”

Cao Cao smiled and teased: "Did the cicada not go to the right thing because she wanted me?" ”

Diao Chan's face turned red, glared at Cao Cao, and said angrily: "It's strange again!" ”

Zhen Mi and Li Qingtong on the side pursed their lips and smiled, Zhen Mi took out a silk handkerchief from the sleeve cage and wiped the saliva on Cao Cao's face, and said with a smile: "The children are so naughty!" ”

Cao Cao touched his cheek and said with a wry smile: "They treat their father's head as a meat bun!" ”

The third girl chuckled.

Just as Cao Cao was chatting with the three wives, Dian Wei trotted over.

Li Qingtong couldn't help but purse her lips when she saw this scene, "Really! Something is going on again! ”

Dian Wei rushed to Cao Cao and reported: "Your Majesty, General Zilong's flying pigeon has been passed down!" ”

Cao Cao's heart moved, "Zilong?!" It must be about Jerusalem! Walk! ”

As he spoke, he walked in the direction of Qianqing Palace, thought of the three wives beside him, stopped, hugged the three daughters gently, and said softly: "Play with the children!" I've got to take care of business! ”

The third girl nodded very obediently, and Li Qingtong pursed her red lips slightly.

Cao Cao, accompanied by Cui Yingying and Dian Wei, went to the Qianqing Palace, took the book from the herald's hand, read it, frowned and nodded.

A few days earlier, Alex had successfully broken through the Roman blockade and reached the Red Sea, and half a day later, 160,000 troops had successfully boarded the ship and headed for the Wei outpost.

In order to transport all the 160,000 rebels away, the Wei army urgently requisitioned ships from the entire Persian Gulf region under its control, and even the fishing boats of the fishermen were also requisitioned, and reluctantly loaded the 160,000 horses onto the ships.

Soon the Roman navy defending the strait found out about this, but Admiral Lielund did nothing, perhaps having been frightened by the Wei army in the previous battle.

In fact, if he had led his army to attack as soon as he received the information, it was very likely that he would have dealt a fatal blow to the overcrowded fleet.

Ten days later, the fleet finally arrived at the Wei outpost.

By this time, a barracks capable of holding 200,000 troops had been built on land. Sixteen00,000 rebels were placed in the barracks.

The 160,000 rebels are terrified, but Alex, as the commander-in-chief, is thinking about the future direction of action.

In the evening of the same day, Alex and several major generals came to the Wei army's tent to meet with the Wei general Gan Ning.

The two sides then exchanged views on the current situation.

In the end, Alex decided to go to Chang'an to meet His Majesty the Emperor in person, during which time the command of the 160,000 rebel army was placed in the hands of Gan Ning.

Alex made such a decision because she was worried that once she left, the hundreds of thousands of people under her command would cause trouble.

A few days later, after the arrangements were made, Alex led dozens of female guards to leave with the returning convoy of grain.

And at this time, the main hall of the Roman royal palace.

"Your Majesty, according to reliable intelligence, Alex led nearly 200,000 rebels to retreat to the outpost of the Wei people!" Intelligence Minister Yushchenko reports.

As soon as they heard this, the ministers present couldn't help but be in an uproar, and someone shouted: "The Wei people are too hateful! They should be taught a lesson!! ”

Caracalla frowned.

At this time, the prime minister came out and said: "Of course! But not now! The empire's immediate priority at the moment is to accumulate strength, not to compete with the Wei people! ”

Caracalla affirmed: "Not bad! What the prime minister said is extremely true! ”

After a pause, he pondered: "Our top priority now is not only to accumulate strength, but also to eliminate the rebel forces in the empire!" If we can't destroy these rebel forces, we won't be able to fight the Wei people with all our might! ”

Raising his head, he asked Yushchenko: "What is the change on the side of England?" ”

Yushchenko replied: "For the time being, no changes have been found!" ”

Caracalla frowned, "No movement?" This is not normal! Send more spies to England, I don't want England to hide something from us! ”

"Yes!"

"And the remnants of the Senate! Their hiding place in Afrika must be figured out as soon as possible! ”

"Yes!"

The so-called Africanicia is the coastal area of present-day northern Libya, which was then a province of the Roman Empire.

Caracalla turned his head to look at Schneider, "Schneider, how is the expansion plan going?" ”

Schneider came out and said, "It went very well! However, it will be at least until the end of this year to reach the set goal! ”

Caracalla nodded, "Do your best!" As for the supplies, don't worry, the empire will do its best to guarantee it! ”

"Yes!"

Karakala pondered for a moment and asked, "Has there been any recent action on the Jin side?" (To be continued.) )
