Chapter 171: Intimidation

Simple big tent, simple seat. Even the host is not particular, what is there to be particular about as a guest?

"Prime Minister, the three conditions proposed by the concubine just now are not generous, aren't you tempted at all?" Da Qiao plucked up his courage, and after waiting quietly for a while, he took the initiative to ask Cao Cao.

"Three conditions? That was Zhongmou's promise to the Han Imperial Court, Lone is not the emperor, why should he be tempted? Cao Cao played a Tai Chi and pushed the problem back again.

"Prime Minister, there are no outsiders here, please allow the concubine to speak out. In today's world, who doesn't know that you coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, under the banner of the Han Court, to do the Cao family's business.

The Son of Heaven is nothing but nothing, and he will not object to what you advocate. He will unswervingly implement the policies you make. As long as you agree to the conditions set by Zhongmou before, are you still worried that the Son of Heaven will not agree?

Comparing your heart to your heart, you have also developed step by step from weak to today. Back then, when you were as old as Zhongmou, weren't you also suffering from internal and external troubles, and it was difficult to support yourself?

How similar is Zhongmou now to you back then? The concubine believes that as long as you can let Zhong Mou go with the flow, Zhong Mou will definitely be remembered in the five hearts, and there will never be any ambition with Cheng Xiang again. ”

"Mrs. Da Qiao, Zhongmou is much better than Lone. Lone's father didn't leave Lone such a big inheritance, at most it was a lot of wealth. To be able to get to this day, Lone has to thank Lone's father, but it is more of an affirmation of himself.

If you just want to live a comfortable life, you will never take the most difficult step you have ever taken. So today, Lone may be in the capital to mix a position, or to be a rich gentry in his hometown, the most poor, and die under the soldiers of this troubled world.

However, Zhongmou is different from Lonely. Whether it is a father or an elder brother, they are all expanding their territory and working hard to build a foundation. Now the three counties of Jiangdong are all in the hands of the Sun family. He didn't have Lone's experience, but he was able to gain a foothold in this troubled world, which was enough to wake up Lone.

Lady Da Qiao, you are a smart man, do you think it is better to kill your enemy when he is not fully fed, or to wait for him to be full and then fight to the death?

Zhongmou, wise, ambitious, and hibernating. Do you think Lone will be merciful to such a person? ”

Cao Cao's words were very straightforward, leaving Da Qiao speechless for a while. She understood the meaning of Cao Cao's words and what she was thinking. But how could anyone who has heroic ambitions give up the success that is within reach?

"Prime Minister, I don't agree with your point of view." Xiao Qiao saw that Da Qiao was eating a stalk, so he quickly stood up and said.

"Little Madame Joe, your voice is very good. A good sound can always make people feel happy, read this, you say! ”

"Prime Minister, Jiangnan is different from the Central Plains. The concubine knows that you have a lot of experience and have escaped death many times. It is no longer easy to trust people. But to Zhongmou, the concubine thinks you can be trusted.

Jiangnan is rich in products and the people live a rich life, and there are fewer wars and wars than in the Central Plains. The people living here are influenced by Confucianism and have a strong humanistic atmosphere. Therefore, the more dignitary you are, the more important it is to look at your own fame.

If you accept the three conditions offered by Zhongmou. That is equivalent to Zhongmou announcing to the world his attitude towards the prime minister in the future.

The word "people's heart" is familiar to you and him. Only by winning the hearts and minds of the people can we win the world. Therefore, even if Zhongmou develops and grows in the future, he will not do anything that violates today's promises. ”

"Mrs. Xiao Qiao said it well, but your words don't represent what Zhongmou thinks. People's minds change, will the current Zhongmou be the future Zhongmou? No! No one can be sure.

Gu is dozens of years older than him, and by the time he is full-fledged, he may no longer be alive. He can keep his promise to Lone, and he can be afraid of Lone's power, but what about Lone's descendants? Were they not who we are today? ”

Xiao Qiao was anxious, remembered some of the things Zhou Yu often said to him, and then did not control his emotions, and said: "The time is not as good as the location, and the location is not as good as the people." The prime minister is now in Jiangdong, and you need to know that the location and people are not on your side.

The battle lines are long, the supplies can't keep up, the water and the soil are not adapted, and other known and unknown risks exist in you. Even if your morale is high and you are unified, how long can you hold on?

On the other hand, on our side, supplies can be sent in a steady stream, and the benevolent and righteous army of rescue is also coming in the starry night, and the people here are all different from the enemy, and they can turn the people into soldiers at any time.

In the face of such a situation, even if the prime minister has the talent to endure the heavens and the earth, I am afraid that he can only be anxious, but he can't make a difference! ”

"Hahaha..., Mrs. Xiao Qiao is worthy of being Gongjin's concubine. I guess he said this to you! Seeing that Xiao Qiao's face changed, Cao Cao continued: "In a way, Gong Jin's remarks are correct. From the moment of view, Gong Jin's remarks are one-sided.

The supply line is long, and Lone knows. Therefore, Gu has already prepared grain and grass, tun and the north bank.

The lonely soldiers who did not adapt to the water and soil did not experience it in the past, but after living by the river for a period of time, they have already overcome this obstacle.

The lack of troops is a big problem, but with Tianjiang's control of the river being controlled by Lone, is the source of troops still a problem? If you have any doubts about this, you may wish to stay in Lone's camp a little longer, and Lone's reinforcements will arrive before dark.

By the way, with more and more reinforcements, Yangzhou City will soon be besieged. In the meantime, the bustling city of Yangzhou will become a dead city.

When Yangzhou City becomes a dead city, do you still need to do it alone? The soldiers who defend the city, the merchants and ordinary people who stay in the city, for their own lives, they will become the vanguard of Lonely.

If Lonely is in a good mood and promises official positions and money, you say, can you still be as calm and lofty as you are now? ”

Cao Cao's words frightened Xiao Qiao. He doesn't like to be threatened, whether it's in the real world or in the world of Shenjing. If you are threatened, even if the fish is dead, you must make your opponent look good.

Da Qiao sensed Cao Cao's anger. Cao Cao, whose anger rose, became more powerful and more terrifying.

"The prime minister is angry, Xiao Qiao is speechless for a while, and please forgive her for the sake of his young and ignorant sake!" Da Qiao knelt on one knee and pleaded with Cao Cao.

Seeing his sister like this, Xiao Qiao also did the same, knelt down on one knee, and begged: "Please calm your anger." Please forgive me. ”

Cao Cao took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and said to them, "Get up!" Lone's heart is not narrow enough to be angry with a woman. ”

"Prime Minister Xie." Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao stood up, but the frequency of their heartbeats did not slow down because of Cao Cao's words.

Cao Cao's threatening words were like thousands of horses galloping to them, breaking through the last line of defense in their hearts.
