Cao Cao's face suddenly tensed, knowing that the real negotiations were coming. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info he wanted to let Wang Yan send troops in empty words, it was almost a pipe dream, and it was impossible to accomplish it.

Only through the exchange of interests can the two sides reach a consensus.

Cao Cao's expression became very serious, and he asked, "What kind of conditions does Brother Xian want?" ”

Wang Yan said with a smile: "Brother Meng De asked me to send troops to help, is the price of asking me to send troops incalculable?" ”

After a pause, Wang Yan continued: "At the beginning, Brother Meng De had a friendship, and he hid all kinds of back-ups. Fortunately, I was still a little clever, and I broke down the follow-up plans one by one, and Brother Meng De nodded and admitted. Now when it comes to the exchange of conditions, Brother Meng De is still hesitant and refuses to give a clear answer. If so, I'm afraid Brother Meng De has found the wrong person. ”

Cao Cao sat upright and said, "Brother Xian misunderstood, not because he was divided, but because he didn't know what to do." ”

Wang Yan said: "Listen to me"

Cao Cao explained: "In terms of the combat effectiveness of the army, the soldiers under my command are not as elite and invincible as the soldiers under the command of the virtuous brother; In terms of official positions, the virtuous brother's father served as the Qingzhou Thorn History, and the virtuous brother served as the Donglai County Guard, and the elder brother was only the first Taishou of the East County; In terms of food, Qingzhou is bordered by the sea in the east and is rich in products, but Yanzhou has suffered from frequent wars, people's livelihood is difficult, and the people are very sad; In terms of money, Qingzhou is vast and rich, far surpassing Dongjun...... As a brother, I really can't think of what kind of conditions to give in order to impress the virtuous brother. ”

The words were sincere, and even Wang Yan agreed with this point of view.

However, even if Wang Yan and Cao Cao had a good personal relationship, it was impossible to give up their own interests.

Without waiting for Wang Yan to speak, Cao Cao continued: "I grew up in an official family since I was a child, and I have witnessed the decline of the Han Dynasty and the hardships of the people. In the year of the crown, I was determined to prosper the Dahan and change all these things of the Dahan. ”

"This journey has been difficult, but it has been extremely bumpy."

"Dongjun is tired, I don't have money if I want money, I don't have food if I want food, I really don't know how to choose."

"If you can get it, you can't do it at all."

"That's why I asked what kind of conditions my brother wanted? As long as the virtuous brother proposes it, no matter what the conditions are, as long as I still have the ability, I will do my best to complete it. ”

Cao Cao's tone was sincere, and his mood was slightly depressed.

He still didn't give Wang Yan a chance to interject, and continued: "Once, I thought that as long as I had a warm blood, as long as I continued to kill corrupt officials and corrupt officials, I would be able to make the Han Dynasty prosper again. It is precisely because of this that during my tenure as an official in Luoyang, I severely targeted the magnates in Luoyang, beheading batch after batch of magnates, making them grit their teeth when they talked about Cao Cao. ”

"At that time, I thought it was a step towards the revitalization of the Han family."

But then I found out that I was pitifully stupid. I killed a magnate, and there are many more, I killed a corrupt official, and there are many more corrupt officials. In this Han world, corrupt officials and corrupt officials are inexhaustible. ”

"At this time, I thought that there was a problem with the officials of the DPRK and China, and that it was the officials who bewitched the Son of Heaven, causing chaos in the world and displacing the people. As long as there are virtuous ministers like Yi Yin and Zhou Gong, the world will naturally be peaceful and peaceful. ”

So, I tried my best to get rid of Dong Zhuo. I first pretended to take refuge in Dong Zhuo, intending to assassinate. But Dong Zhuo's Prime Minister's Mansion was heavily guarded, and I couldn't find a chance to start. At that time, I met you, and after talking to you, I fled from Luoyang, scattered my wealth in Chenliu, recruited soldiers, and then issued a message against Dong. ”

"As soon as the text came out, the princes of the world gathered in the Tiger Prison Pass to jointly crusade against Dong Zhuo."

Speaking of fighting here, Cao Cao's face looked extremely excited.

Wang Yan frowned slightly, and his expression was extremely solemn.

Cao Cao at this moment showed a different side. A person who almost never laughs and scolds on weekdays, but now he is full of sadness and helplessness, but in the depths of his eyes, there is still the spirit of continuous struggle.

Cao Cao continued: "Outside the Tiger Prison Pass, the princes of the eighteen towns gathered together, how majestic, how magnificent"

"At that time, I was sure that I would defeat Dong Zhuo. As the initiator of the crusade against Dong Zhuo, even though I am not the leader of the alliance, as long as I defeat Dong Zhuo, at least I can leave a mark in the history books. ”

"But before I had time to rejoice, I found that the princes and the coalition had their own thoughts."

"The entire coalition is scattered."

"Because of Yuan Shao's reasons, he forced the virtuous brother to leave the barracks. For the sake of power, Yuan Shao even gave up the important task of crusading against Dong Zhuo, and the fierce coalition army fell apart in an instant, and the crusade against Dong failed. ”

Cao Cao clenched his fists, his eyes were sad, and he said in a deep voice: "I was unwilling at that time, I was not willing to fail like this." ”

"How can you give up so easily?"

"I will never give up"

"To this end, I led the only remaining army under my command to attack the Tiger Prison Pass and start a war against Dong Zhuo. But the fact is so cruel and cold, Dong Zhuo only sent the Flying Bear Army, and didn't even send the rest of the soldiers, and easily defeated me. Fortunately, thanks to the protection of Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Han, I survived, and finally had to flee back to Chenliu in disgrace. ”

"After some operation, I served as the Taishou of Dongjun and had a place."

"Only now did I understand what you said to me in the Tiger Prison, people can't be trusted, and you have to rely on yourself."

"If you want to calm the world and prosper the Han, you can only rely on myself."

Cao Cao stared at Wang Yan and said in a deep voice: "Even, I can't guess the mind of the virtuous brother, and I don't believe that the virtuous brother will work recklessly for the sake of the Zhongxing Dahan." ”

"But the reality is that I have to ask my brother Xian for help."

Cao Cao's knuckles clenched and gurgled as he said, "The power of a county is too weak, too weak. This kind of power is far from fulfilling my ambitions. Only by going up, only by going up. ”

Speaking of this, Cao Cao took a deep breath and said again: "There are too many traitors in the court, they are too treacherous, they are too shameless, and they do things regardless of means. To deal with these people, I have to have enough strength. Even, I have to be more treacherous and reckless than them to achieve the ultimate goal.

Cao Cao said with emotion: "A person who behaves in a proper manner and is an honest official, if he wants to convince all the traitors and calm the troubled times full of gunsmoke, it is absolutely impossible, only to be more ruthless and treacherous than them." ”

The angry eyes and strong determination moved Wang Yan.

Such words are indeed Cao Cao's sincere words. Speaking of which, Cao Cao is confiding in his heart. From Cao Cao's words, Wang Yan even felt Cao Cao's transformation process.

Little by little, step by step, the current Cao Cao was formed.

Wang Yan's eyes gradually became firm, he was silent for a moment, and then spoke: "Brother Meng De, maybe you will not be the current you after many years." ”

Cao Cao flicked his sleeves and said categorically: "No matter how it changes, I will never change my original intention and never forget my original intention." I firmly believe that this can be done, no one can control my thoughts, no one can change my mind. ”

In this regard, Wang Yan does not intend to argue again.

Wang Yan painted a style and said: "After getting married on the eighth day of the first lunar month, I will return to Donglai County as soon as possible, and then start preparing to clean up the bandits in Qingzhou." At that time, I will act according to your plan and drive all the thieves from Qingzhou to Yanzhou. ”

Cao Cao asked, "What conditions?" ”

Wang Yan said: "There is no need for conditions, maybe this is the only thing I can do for you." ”

As soon as he said that, Wang Yan couldn't help but sigh lightly. After all, he failed to slaughter Cao Cao, maybe Cao Cao's words moved him, maybe he couldn't bear Cao Cao's disappointment, or maybe Wang Yan wanted to see a rising Cao Cao...... In short, Wang Yan was also in a complicated mood, and finally decided to help Cao Cao.

Cao Cao was moved in his heart, stood up and clasped his hands together, and bowed and said: "Virtuous brother, I don't thank you for my great kindness, I thank you here for my brother." At this moment, Cao Cao was extremely excited, but he didn't expect Wang Yan to really agree. With Wang Yan's help, Cao Cao was fully sure of the official position of Yanzhou's assassin, and he could also take this opportunity to strengthen Yanzhou's power.

Wang Yan's mood was a little low, and he didn't have the heart to continue chatting, so he ordered to send off the guests.
