Chapter 242: Ask the King what he wants

Cao Cao returned to his seat with the empty wine glass, changed his wine glass, then poured it full, raised his glass to Ao Lie again and said, "Junhou, this glass of wine, you." ”

Ao Lie picked up the wine glass with a smile, but he was not in a hurry to drink, but asked: "Sikong Jing Benhou's glass of wine, is there any name?" ”

In the conversation before this, Cao Cao was subject to Ao Lie everywhere, as if Ao Lie had predicted Cao Cao's every word, which made Cao Cao feel overwhelmed, but Cao Cao was a generation of heroes after all, although he did not have the experience and knowledge of later generations like Ao Lie, but Cao Cao's ability to judge the situation and the ability to adapt to changes was still not lagging behind. Therefore, Cao Cao planned to change his strategy, no longer go around in circles with Ao Lie, and was ready to ask Ao Lie directly and join forces to resist Yuan Shao's affairs.

"I don't have a name, but I have a request. Please join forces with Cao to fight against Yuan Shao! Cao Cao looked directly into Ao Lie's eyes, waiting for Ao Lie's response. At this moment, Ao Lie's wine glass has been raised, if he drinks this glass of wine, it is equivalent to agreeing to join forces with Cao Cao to attack Yuan Shao; If Ao Lie put down his wine glass, he said that he did not agree to join forces with Cao Cao. However, if Ao Lie put down the wine glass, it is equivalent to disrespect for Cao Cao, in the Han Dynasty, people toasted you, your wine glass was raised, and instead of drinking, the most important thing was not to drink, but to put down the wine glass, this is a matter of face, it is very likely, because of such a move, the two will become undying enemies. Cao Cao is also using this method to force Ao Lie to express his opinion, and at the same time clearly tell Ao Lie, if you don't agree to join forces, after Cao Cao defeats Yuan Shao, the next target is you Ao Lie!

Ao Lie had a smile on his face, but his tone suddenly became as cold as a knife: "Cao Sikong, can Ben Hou think that you are threatening Ben Hou?" "For the matter of joining forces to attack Yuan Shao. Ao Lie did not have any reason to object. Yu Gong, Yuan Shao divided half of Jizhou and Qingzhou, and his authority was very heavy, which was not conducive to the unification of the world; Yu Private, he and Yuan Shao have an unknotted hatred, the lives of 20,000 soldiers, and Ao Lie has not yet recovered this account! Joining forces with Cao Cao, for now, is actually a good choice, but after conquering Jizhou. The power in Cao Cao's hands will inevitably grow again, which is not what Ao Lie wants to see. Ao Lie clearly knows what kind of person Cao Cao is, give him a crowbar, and he can move the entire earth! Therefore, to attack Yuan Shao's initiative, Ao Lie must grasp it in his own hands and take himself as the leader, not Cao Cao.

Cao Cao took a deep breath. It wasn't until now that he realized that he had always underestimated Ao Lie. In Cao Cao's impression, Ao Lie's leading troops to fight and his personal martial arts are indeed the world's first-class standards. This is undeniable, but Cao Cao never thought that his speculation and insight into people's hearts, as well as his words and deeds, were not leaky. Ao Lie actually has such a superb level. Not at all like a young man in his twenties!

Things have developed to this point, Cao Cao can no longer hold back, no matter what. He holds half of Yanzhou, Yuzhou and Qingzhou in his hands, even if he fights with Yuan Shao with his own strength, the victory or defeat is also in the number of five or five, as long as Ao Lie does not intervene at that time and make trouble for himself, Cao Cao still has a certain confidence to defeat Yuan Shao, so Cao Cao's tone also hardened: "Junhou, this Sikong is not begging you to make a move, if you don't want to help, you can watch from the wall, and this Sikong will solve Yuan Shao by himself!" "Cao Cao has always been humble and called Cao, but at this moment, in the face of Ao Lie's huge pressure, Cao Cao has to call himself an official position to resist the pressure brought by Ao Lie.

The invisible pressure on Ao Lie and Cao Cao's bodies gradually spread, each occupying a place in the tent and not letting each other go. This situation lasted for a long time, and the heavy pressure had been so heavy that the generals standing behind the two of them could not bear it, just when Xiahoudun and Sun Ce reached out to the hilt of the sword at the same time, and were about to draw the sword, the momentum on Cao Cao's body suddenly leaked, as if he was defeated by Ao Lie's momentum, and rolled back to Cao Cao's body, and then, the momentum on Ao Lie's body also dissipated, making all the generals feel extremely relaxed.

Suddenly, Cao Cao laughed: "Junhou, you are so scared that you can't lightly, in your momentum, there is no killing intent at all, it's just scare?" Ao Lie also smiled: "I have heard that the air is extraordinary, and when I saw it today, it was really so." ”

As the two of them released their suspicions, the atmosphere in the big tent became active again, and Ao Lie and Cao Cao kept pushing and changing cups, as if what had just happened had not happened at all.

After three rounds of drinking, Cao Cao suddenly said: "Junhou, in fact, for a long time, there has always been a question in Cao's heart, the prince is powerful in the northern Xinjiang, the governor of You, He, and Guang Sanzhou, and has hundreds of thousands of soldiers under his command, but he can abide by etiquette for today's son and pay taxes and money every year. Is it true that the prince has no ambition at all? Dare to ask the prince, what is your heart's desire? ”

Cao Cao's words implied the suspicion of a great crime of disrespect. Although the current Han is stormy, after all, he is still a big Han, and the Son of Heaven is still the emperor of the Han Dynasty. But in this regard, Ao Lie is not angry, there is nothing to be angry about, the current big man, is such a look of dying, it is useless to refute, Ao Lie has always advocated that use actions to block the mouth of the doubter, not a tooth for a tooth and just play lip service.

Cao Cao's question, if it is for others, Ao Lie can also be said to have received the kindness of two generations of the Son of Heaven, and the observance of etiquette is to repay the kindness, but the person who asked this sentence is Cao Cao, Cao Cao's insight and speculation on people's hearts are no worse than Ao Lie, Ao Lie knows that such an answer obviously cannot make Cao Cao believe. If you are a human being, you will have ambition, and a person without ambition will not be able to become a prince all the way in troubled times no matter what. Therefore, Ao Lie also has ambitions, but his ambitions are not the same as the broad meaning, Ao Lie's ambition lies in the hope that the court of the Han Dynasty can become a state institution like that of later generations, no longer just for the nobles, but for the common people of the world. Although Ao Lie knew that it was an impossible task to turn the Han Dynasty into a socialist country in a feudal society, Ao Lie was willing to work hard for this for the rest of his life.

From the point of view of the moment, the transformation of the country is a matter that is beneficial to the people of the present generation. It can let all the Han people in the world and the alien people who have been sinicized have a common home, so that they can live quietly and live in this homeland; In the long run, Ao Lie hopes to create a prosperous and prosperous country with Han people as the main ethnic group. There is a high degree of civilization inside, and there is a strong military force outside, and the territory of the Han people, like the Mongols in later generations, has been opened up to Europe! Let the people of this country be respected by the people of other countries forever in the future! Let the people of this country, in the Hereafter, never be bullied by other nations! As for when Ao Lie built the country into shape. Ao Lie doesn't have any idea who will be in charge of the country, as long as he is a leader who is conducive to the country's stable development, Ao Lie can accept it. For example, Liu Xie.

Seeing that Ao Lie was a little distracted, Cao Cao opened his mouth again and asked, "Dare to ask what the prince and marquis wish in his heart?" ”

Ao Lie let out a long sigh. Said word by word: "There are tens of millions of mansions, so that a large number of cold people in the world are happy, and the wind and rain do not move like a mountain." That's all I want. ”

When Ao Lie said this, his tone was extremely solemn, so that all the people in the world can live a happy and stable life, this impossible situation, coming out of his mouth, is no longer an ethereal and unattainable myth, but a dream worthy of his life's energy to realize. This dream is very illusory and difficult to achieve, but Ao Lie used his own way to show his longing and unswerving determination for this dream.

With Ao Lie's words, a few civil and military ministers in the big tent, many people shed tears of emotion, in this troubled times, the lives of ordinary people, fragile than the paper in Youzhou, the minds of all the princes, are on the training of people, grab the territory, few people or never, really care about how difficult the life of the people is, perhaps, in this world, only Ao Lie, is really put the safety of the people in his heart, Ao Lie's ambition and mind, It's really impressive. Even Cao Cao was deeply moved by Ao Lie's words, it turned out that Ao Lie's ambition was so ambitious, so that Cao Cao, who was planning to fight for territory, had a feeling of shame.

However, moving is moving, and the position must be firm. Guo Jia, Xiahoudun and others behind Cao Cao quickly wiped away their tears and struggled out of the moved. It's not that they don't want to go down and inherit Ao Lie's thoughts, but reality forces them not to dare, and they can't do that. To be a hero is to pay a price, Ao Lie is willing to be such a hero for the people of the world, but not everyone can do this, this road, there are too many thorns, if you are not careful, you will be stabbed beyond recognition, once you are trapped in the thorn bushes, you want to retreat, you may not even have a way out. On one side are noble angels, walking between cliffs and cliffs, looking for the seeds of survival for mankind; On the one hand, there are ordinary people in the world, living in the vast land and spending their lives ordinarily. Compared with the two, the former may be smashed to pieces at any time, but the latter can spend this life in peace, so the vast majority of people choose the latter, because, angel, it is enough to have Ao Lie alone, and the angelic road, in the eyes of the latter, is too difficult to walk.

With a long sigh, Cao Cao raised his glass again and saluted a glass of wine to Ao Lie: "The prince is Gaozhi, it is difficult to reach." It's ridiculous that Cao is still discussing with the prince about joining forces to attack Yuan Shao, which is really ridiculous! ”

Ao Lie took the wine glass and drank it all, and suddenly said: "Sikong said that the matter of joining forces, Ben Hou agreed!" ”

"Well, okay...... Yes? What did the prince just say? Cao Cao didn't expect things to turn around, and there was a turn for the better when he was most desperate, so that Cao Cao, who had always been calm, actually had a distraction.

Ao Lie chuckled lightly and added: "But this matter should not be rushed, Ben Hou still has to make some pre-war preparations. In addition, it is up to Benhou to decide when to start a war, where to fight a decisive battle, and how to deal with the exchanges between you and me. ”

Cao Cao has no objection to Ao Lie's request to grasp the initiative in battle, in this era, the fist is naturally confident, Ao Lie's strength is stronger than Cao Cao, and he leads troops to fight, and the judgment of the war situation is only above Cao Cao, never under Cao Cao, and Cao Cao has nothing to worry about, so he happily agreed.

The originally simple banquet ended in a not simple conversation between the two sides, and Ao Lie led his troops to leave after thanking Cao Cao for his hospitality. Looking at Ao Lie's back, Cao Cao sighed to several important ministers around him: "Ten years ago, I predicted that this person would definitely be a hero in the future in the future. Now, ten years later, it really doesn't seem to me. Ao Mohan is really a hero of the world, brave as Xiang Yu, as strategic as Han Xin, and broad-minded, he is really a fierce opponent in my life. With such an opponent, I will no longer be alone in this life......"

In the future, Cao Cao's evaluation of Ao Lie was widely circulated. is as brave as Xiang Yu and strategizing as Han Xin, and it is even more cited as a classic and has become a unique label for the little overlord Ao Lie. (To be continued......)

PS: PS: This chapter is more complete, and Da Kun will compensate everyone for the past two days. This chapter is also a summary of the image that Ao Lie has been establishing, some book friends don't understand Ao Lie's thoughts, thinking that he is not the emperor, and he has lived up to the same talent as BUG, and some book friends think that he is "loyal" to Liu Xie, which is really nondescript, in this regard, Da Kun used this chapter to formally reply, Ao Lie will never be loyal to a certain person, his wish is to build a stable and united country, so that the Han people and later all ethnic groups on the land of China, can be passed on, internally, there is a high degree of civilization, Externally, it has a strong force, so that other countries do not dare to despise the Han people and dare not bully the Han people!
