Chapter 1081: Happiness, and Unhappiness
It was night, and the camp of the princes of the Eighteenth Road was brightly lit.
The camp, which stretched for hundreds of miles, was seen from above, and the piles of torches and bonfires scattered all over the ground reflected the entire sky overhead as if it were day. Even the howling cold wind avoided this "hot" place.
The Eighteenth Road Princes are celebrating!
What to celebrate? It's not to celebrate the capture of the Tiger Prison Pass (ps: In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the Tiger Prison Pass and the Bishui Pass are divided into two levels, which are actually the same level and the same name, and the reality is respected here), because they failed to win the Tiger Prison Pass at all. Rather, it celebrates the rescue of the emperor of the Han Dynasty from the hands of the traitor Dong Zhuo.
During the meeting of the monarchs and ministers this afternoon, our Yuan Shao and Yuan League leaders asked for the order to sacrifice to the heavens again, thank God for their protection, and then feast the ministers and reward the three armies, in order to show the grace of the saints, and at the same time to the Han Xian Emperor to suppress the gods. In this regard, Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty naturally would not refuse, and readily agreed.
And before that there was an interesting vignette. After meeting the saint, Cao Cao gratitatively grabbed Liu Bei's hand and said, "Brother Xuande has worked hard." Brother Xuande worked tirelessly, fearless of hardships and dangers, righteousness first, saved His Majesty from the dire waters, saved the people of the world from the dire waters, Meng De has nothing to repay, please Brother Xuande to be worshiped by Meng De! ”
Under the scorching gaze of the princes, Cao Cao really bowed to him. After a short period of stunned, a bitter smile appeared at the corner of Liu Bei's mouth, and when Cao Mengde bowed halfway, he hurriedly helped Cao Cao up in a panic, and said directly, "Brother Mengde is serious, and he is afraid." Don't dare to take credit. The success of saving His Majesty is due to Brother Meng De's thorough planning and exhaustive strategy. If you can't run errands in time, just do it. ”
So, the two of them were so "sincere" and polite.
In this way, the first merit of saving the driver was pushed to Cao Cao by Liu Bei, and he himself was the second merit - Liu Bei is not stupid, on the contrary, he knows how to judge the situation very well! After a moment of stunnedness, the wisest choice was made. Because he knows the truth that "the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind is more devastating". If he had elite soldiers at this moment, such as a fierce general, he would never let the credit in his hands slip away. But the reality is that there are no more than 300 soldiers, and the generals will not be able to pass the pass, and among the princes of the Eighteenth Road, they are just a small fish that is fatter than shrimp, unless he wants to become the mouth of the big fish, he will never dare to take the credit alone. And Cao Cao, although his strength is not strong, but since he dares to stand up and openly grab credit, Liu Bei simply gives him the credit. It's better to be happy alone than to be happy with all.
After secretly praising "Liu Bei is really on the road", Cao Cao smiled "hehe" and said, "The generals are also indispensable", and sent part of the credit to Yuan Shao and other princes, and came to a genuine "Zhongle Le".
Subsequently, there was Yuan Shaokaipa
Ty's proposal maximizes the "joy of the people", that is, it highlights the status of his alliance leader, so that the limelight will not be stolen by Cao Cao and Liu Bei, and he will win over the princes, and at the same time, the request to Emperor Han Xian is also a gesture of being willing to respect Emperor Han Xian, so that Emperor Han Xian will not feel that he has no power in his hands because of the position of the alliance leader, which is really a bird with one stone!
Yin Kuang and others, who were left aside, watched Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Yuan Shao and others sing a drama of "Zhongle Le", and only felt that none of these simple goods engaged in politics were bombarded, and they could not be beaten by shelling.
Originally, Yin Kuang was still thinking about whether to do something about the credit, so that Cao Cao and Liu Bei would turn against each other, and let Liu Bei become the target of public criticism, etc., but he didn't think that Liu Bei was very shrewd, and Cao Cao was also very thick-faced, so he didn't give him a chance. Yin Kuang could only comfort himself with "In the end, he is the master of the world in the future, where is it so easy for me to use". As for the credit? Yin Kuang and the others don't have much hope anymore. narrowly escaped life, but in the end it became the cheapest "errand and miscellaneous", and the credit was not enough for the princes to share, where are they still the share of these "small fish and shrimp". Thinking about it again, these credits are naturally good, and there is nothing to complain about if they don't, and this time the action of "saving Emperor Han Xian" has brought him enough benefits.
Naturally, some people are happy, and some people are bound to be unhappy. And often, those who are unhappy exist among those who are happy, and the happier those who are, the more unhappy they are. For example, Tebriel, Chihuahua, Esna, Justin, Kagome, and every student of the West God. And the reason why they are unhappy is because Yin Kuang's action of "saving Emperor Han Xian" caused them huge losses. Yin Kuang's conspiracy and conspiracy, one link after another, one ring was broken and another ring came, opening several holes for Xishen's originally very solid ship, so that they blocked this end and couldn't take care of that end, tired of coping, and finally suffered heavy losses and casualties.
That's when they got together.
The guards at the camp were very lax tonight, so Tebriel and the students of the West God managed to infiltrate the camp. And Kagome, after being tortured by the scout camp under Gongsun Zhan's tent, was also rescued by Chihuahua and others. Because of today's series of changes, Kagome's so-called scheming little fish and shrimp have long been forgotten.
"Ladies and gentlemen!" Kagome, who had been tortured for a day, knelt down on one knee in front of Tagoret and the others, "It's all because of my recklessness, which gave Yin Kuang the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and kill so many of his companions...... I have no shame to see the Goddess again, and I am willing to dedicate my soul to the Goddess for salvation! ”
Esna said lightly, her voice cold, "Kagome, get up." You didn't do anything wrong. If you really want to investigate, in the end, we all underestimated Yin Kuang. At the same time, we were also thoughtful, and we never thought of thinking of Emperor Han Xian. It was a lot of mistakes that led to today's defeat. You can't be left alone to bear the sin. ”
"But ......"
Tagoret said, "Get up! If you really want salvation, find a way to avenge your fellow people who died in vain, and may they rest in peace. The voice was low, suppressing negative emotions, and there was an irreversible momentum of freedom.
Kagome replied with a slight whimper, "Yes! Then he stood up and withdrew silently.
Tagore took a deep breath, looked straight ahead, and said, "More than two hundred people have died...... "Xishen has killed more than a hundred people in just one day today, and this number is like an awl nailed to Tagore's heart, which makes people almost maddened. Yin Kuang! It's all because of that Yin Kuang! Tagore almost crushed his teeth with hatred, but he had to hold back, and if he did, he would have no teeth.
In addition to Tagoret and Chihuahua, there are also Henry, Brown, and Letty, a total of seven people, who belong to the decision-making level of Xishen University in this exam. Unlike Dongsheng, which has so many association leaders and class leaders, Xishen's decision-making level is very streamlined.
Tagore's words made everyone feel depressed, and their faces were full of gloom.
Justin said, "A quarter of the people are dead...... Justin didn't say it explicitly, but everyone understood what he meant. Because according to the oracle of the goddess of light, if the number of deaths reaches three hundred, this battle against Tokatsu will be abandoned. Although everyone is disgusted with the word "renunciation", no one objects to the oracle of the goddess of light. As for why the goddess sent down such an oracle, it is not for everyone to consider, just do it - this is the benefit of absolute unity and control.
Chihuahua said, "We still have a chance!" This time we will not be careless, any underestimation. Next, we have to develop a detailed plan to deal with Dongsheng. Get back all our losses! ”
Esna's eyes also flashed with fire, and she said, "Hmm." Although we lost a lot this time, they didn't gain much from Dongsheng. The credit for saving Emperor Han Xian was all divided by those princes, and there was no share of Yin Kuang at all. At the same time, many of Dongsheng's problems have also been exposed, and we can take advantage of them. In addition, although the Han Emperor was the emperor, but now that the Han Dynasty has risen in all directions, the imperial power has been weakened very seriously, and we can also take advantage of this. ”
As a person from the Western democratic world, there was a subconscious neglect of the imperial system of ancient China.
Tagore stood up and said, "I'll go out for a walk." Make a detailed plan and submit it to me. With that, Tagore left. He felt he really needed to be still.
So, Chihuahua, Esna, Henry, and others began to discuss the next plan of action.
At the same time, in a certain camp tent in Cao Cao's camp, Li Shuangmu, Leng Huaping, Yin Kuang, Tan Shengge, Beidao and others also gathered together.
Oh, and there is another person who has been ignored by everyone - Wang Ning!
They were supposed to be happy, but they didn't have a happy look on their faces at the moment, but were very distressed.
At this moment, a question related to the victory or defeat of the entire Dongsheng is in front of them.
In the entire Dongsheng, there are a total of 1,621 people who participated in this exam, of which only more than 700 people are willing to participate in the war now, and among these more than 700 people, nearly 500 people are Dongying, and more than 600 people in Dongsheng have disappeared out of thin air!?
This is definitely a huge irony!
These days, the job of Wang Ning and the 50 Hou Mansion hidden guards led by him is to find out these more than 600 people, and after these days of busyness, more than 300 people have been found out, and these people are now locked up in one place by the Hou Mansion hidden guards.
Now the question is, what to do with these 312 speculators!
