Chapter Eighty-Four: Surrender
Yangzhou, Moling.
Cao Cao sat behind the bookcase, Qin Shao leaned over and stood in front of the case, and on top of the bookcase, a map was slowly being opened.
Qin Shao continued: "Seeing that the world was gradually flattening, I planned to return to the mountains and forests, but when I watched the sky at night, I suddenly found that the world was in a three-third trend! After deducing for a long time, I found that it was Jiangdong Sun Wu, and Liu Bei of Shu Han stole the luck of the Han Dynasty, and there will be a big battle with the prime minister in the Chibi area this year, and then with this Chibi battle, a three-third game was set! ”
"How innocent are the people? Who should bear the tragedy of thousands of miles of uninhabited people, and who will pay back? Although I am an outsider, I don't want this troubled world to continue! ”
"I went to Xinye, and saw that although Liu Bei has justice, his strength is too poor, although he has the strength to win the Central Plains, but it is too long; I went to Jiangdong and saw Sun Quan's blue eyes and purple hair, although he was born extraordinary, but he was far from being the co-ruler of the world. Thinking about it, only the prime minister can dominate the whole country in the shortest possible time, so that the people of the world can live a happy and stable life. ”
"So, I sent Sun Quan to Heavenly Court, and also sent Zhou Yu, the main figure of Sun Wuzhong's main battle faction, to ......"
As he spoke, Qin Shao's words suddenly paused, and Cao Cao, who was immersed in Qin Shao's words, also woke up instantly, and then saw Qin Shao's fingers suddenly fall on the map that had been completely opened, on the island marked "Yizhou"!
"This is Yizhou! Also one of the places you need to conquer in the future! ”
Cao Cao's eyes didn't fall on the map at this moment, he stood up suddenly, looked at Qin Shao in shock, and said with some surprise and some uncertainty: "You are the assassin who killed Sun Quan?!" ”
"That's not the point!" Qin Shao knocked on the table and said, "Map, I want you to see the map!" ”
Now how can Cao Cao pay attention to this Laoshzi map? He held Qin Shao's hand and said gratefully: "Jiangdong has the Yangtze River and natural dangers, if you stick to our army, there will be huge casualties. The work of the Taoist is so high! ”
"I'm a person who is idle and wild, I don't want fame and fortune, you better look at the map first!" Qin Shao continued to persuade. He went through many difficulties in order to prepare this map, and there was no merit and hard work, how could he be so ignored by Cao Cao?
"I want to set up a temple outside Xuchang City, and set aside a radius of ten miles as the territory of the Taoist, so that the inheritance of the Taoist can be continued." Hearing such Qin Shao's indifferent words of fame and fortune, Cao Cao admired it in his heart and immediately made a promise. got a Jiangdong for nothing, but only paid a little material and financial resources, Cao Cao was very happy about this.
"Let's put this aside in advance, and the prime minister will look at the map!" Qin Shao's head is full of black lines, why don't you just look at a map, is it so troublesome? If I hadn't wanted to see the shocked expression of this Emperor Wei Wu, I wouldn't have done this, how good would it be to just leave and leave!
After Qin Shao's repeated persuasion, Cao Cao realized that this map should not be an ordinary thing, even if he was stupid, otherwise he would not have been admonished by Qin Shao many times, but he didn't care too much: the map, he thought he had seen enough! What else could catch his attention? Could it be...... Topographic map of Xishu?!
Thinking of this, Cao Cao was suddenly startled, and the more he thought about it, the more he realized that it was possible, and hurriedly looked down.
But he was obviously going to be disappointed, and he couldn't be said to be disappointed, because he didn't understand the map at all!
"Daoist Qin, where is this map?" Cao Cao asked suspiciously.
In fact, this can't be blamed on Cao Cao, if you look at this map as a high school math problem, then the ones he used to see are the math problems of junior high school students, even if he looks at more junior high school math problems, he can't immediately solve the high school math problems!
The main thing to look at the map is to find a point, and then spread out from that point, to the county, to the county, to the state, and then to the whole country and even the world. Qin Shao believed that if it weren't for his reminder, Cao Cao would have understood this map very quickly, after all, Cao Cao was not illiterate!
"This is the world map, my second gift to the Prime Minister!"
As he spoke, Qin Shao pointed out the location of Jiangdong on the map, and then pointed out the location of Dahan.
At this point, Cao Cao's doubts were solved in an instant.
But the next moment, his face showed a look of shock and disbelief, his fingers trembled slightly and pointed to the map, and there was a trace of trembling in his tone: "Great Han...... That's all there is to it? The westernmost country, the territory is comparable to that of the Han Dynasty! To the east of the sea, there is such a vast land?! ”
The allusion to Yoro's arrogance is still circulating, and people have seen the pride and ignorance of Yoro's monarch, and his shallow conceit. But who knows that when the Yelang monarch wakes up from a dream, the confusion and despair in his heart? The place that is proud of, proud of, dedicated his life to, and poured all his life, after the fog is broken, the truth is so naked, bloody, and undisguised in front of you!
"Therefore, the prime minister still has a long way to go. This vast land, this vast ocean. And the conquest really began after unification! ”
"Under the whole world, it is not the king's land; On the shore of the land, it is not the king's minister. I believe that the prime minister will let me let the world see this day coming! The four seas are called ministers, the eight directions come to worship, the ten directions of the world, do my Han land!! ”
As he spoke, Qin Shao took a step back, slammed towards Cao Cao to the end, and said loudly at the same time: "On the day of unifying the whole country, I hope that the prime minister will take the common people in the world as his mind, and the peace of all generations as his hope, and ascend the throne and become the emperor!" Cohesion of the people, gather military power, carry out reforms, enrich the people's livelihood, and then go west, expand the territory, worship the marquis, create a new world for the descendants of all generations, let my Han nation forever stand on the top of the world, no longer bullied by foreigners! ”
At this time, Xu Chu on the side finally figured out Qin Shao's identity, it turned out that Qin Shao was the one who assassinated Sun Quan!
Xu Chu admired the soldier who took a great risk and assassinated Sun Quan alone, so that the soldiers of the three armies would not be sacrificed, and he also fantasized that one day he could meet the soldier and thank him in person. I didn't expect to see the real person now, but it was the young man who was hit by himself, not to mention how guilty he felt at this time.
How can a person who can save the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers of the three armies be a bad person?
So, Xu Chu, who was bold by nature and changed his mistakes, planned to apologize to Qin Shao and make amends, but he didn't expect Qin Shao to suddenly take a step back, and then said something that made his blood boil, and suggested to Cao Cao that he ascend the throne and become the emperor and change the dynasty!
Expanding the territory, this is entrenched in the hearts of every general, the most primitive ambition and the most noble glory, watching his lord ascend the throne and become the emperor, is also Xu Chu's greatest wish. On this day, at this moment, they appeared in front of him without warning, Xu Chu did not hesitate, knelt down suddenly, and said loudly: "I hope that the lord will conform to the will of the people and ascend the throne and become the emperor!" ”
Cao Cao was shocked by this sudden scene, it was originally a good reception, but this carelessness suddenly became a forced palace! Ascending the throne and becoming the emperor, he thought about it more than once in his heart, but the trace of loyalty to the Han family in his heart made him hesitate.
At this moment, he couldn't help but be silent, thinking about the decay and decay of the Great Han; Thinking of the eyes of the people who yearn for peace; Thinking of the emperor in the palace who opposes him from time to time, listens to slander, and fights for power; Thinking about the vast picture scroll sketched by Qin Shao. He suddenly felt that maybe it was a good choice to be the emperor.
With the emperor in Xuchang City, he really can't afford this responsibility and glory!
Thinking of this, Cao Cao's thoughts couldn't help but be overwhelmed, and his mind was also refreshed. For a long time, the idea of loyalty to the monarch and the ambition of usurping the Han Dynasty have been fighting endlessly in his mind, and the Hanchen and Han thieves are all in his thoughts, but he can't choose between them, and his name will remain in history or be stinking for thousands of years, and he can't tell which step is true.
The map that Qin Shao gave has undoubtedly become a key, a key to unlock Cao Cao's infinite ambitions! And Qin Shao's words also made Cao Cao let go of all his worries and face his heart.
At this moment, a generation of heroes gradually fell silent, no longer hot-blooded and heroic, and suddenly woke up!
In an instant, the world of the Three Kingdoms shook, the wind and clouds changed color, and countless beasts roared in the sky, and the momentum was monstrous! Above the sky, the clouds of Huo Ran were scattered, and in the bright sky, three stars appeared in the blue. The finished product of the three is arranged in a glyph, one is located in the southwest sky, facing Chengdu, one is suspended in the Central Plains, reflecting Xuchang in the distance, and one is hidden in the southeast, facing Moling, the starlight is extremely dim.
Suddenly, the stars located in the southeast and southwest corners suddenly exploded, and the little starlight converged to the middle one like the Milky Way, and after a while, a bright star was independent and above the blue sky, and then moved slowly, leaving a line sprinkled with silver light in the swaying room, like an emperor cruising the world!
Gradually, the outline of a map appeared in the sky at an altitude of 90,000 miles, which was the outline of the territory of the thirteen states of the Great Han Dynasty, that was the Han land!
When the stars returned to their original places again, everything was quietly and slowly disappearing, the roar was gone, the stars were shining in the sky, and the sun was shining!
Does this portend anything?
Cao Cao calmed down the turmoil in his heart, thinking about the war, thinking about the talents, and suddenly thought of Zhou Yu, the general who was extremely good in water warfare. In the future national war, the vast ocean is also a very important part, transportation, supply, sea transportation is much more convenient, easy and faster than land transportation. And this is in need of a large group of excellent naval generals like Zhou Yu.
So, he subconsciously asked a question: "Does Daoist Qin know where Liu Bei is at this time?" ”
Liu Bei lost his trace after hearing the news of Sun Quan's death and Zhuge Liang's disappearance three days ago, and disappeared with his sworn brothers, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.
As for Liu Bei's army, under the leadership of Jian Yong, all of them surrendered to Cao's army.
