Chapter 444: A Grasshopper on a Rope (Part II)

Cao Yi sneered and said, "Do you really think of yourself as the general of the Great Song Dynasty?" Chen Ao, you don't know that the Great Song Dynasty is impossible to perish now. Why should we be so honest and risk our lives to fight the Khitans?"

Chen Ao sneered: "I know you are afraid of death. It's a shame that you're still a drug dealer, and you're still in the underworld!"

Cao Yi was furious, slapped the table and shouted: "If I am rich, I will be a gangster? I am so rich, I will go to drug trafficking? I will risk being shot on the spot to kill the police?"

He was angry and sighed: "Now that I am rich and status, of course I have to cherish my life and enjoy the glory and wealth!"

Chen Ao was really a little helpless about Cao Yi, thinking about his words is not bad, since he is already famous and profitable, who is willing to work hard? Come to think of it, this is also the idea of those officials in the capital who advocate moving the capital to the south and fleeing.

Moreover, if Chen Ao didn't want to fulfill his friend's righteousness, I am afraid that he would have taken his own woman to Jiangnan to be his own landlord by now. But now that he has become this forward general, he has to do his duty.

Chen Ao took out the military intelligence report from his bosom and said with a straight face: "Cao Yi, the Liao army has already hit the front of you, are you really not worried at all? If the Liao army is attacking at the current speed, I am afraid that they will fight here before His Majesty's army arrives! As long as Lanzhou is broken, the Khitan iron hoof will really be unstoppable." I'm afraid history will be rewritten!"

These military analyses were all taught to him by Zhao Ling. Chen Ao told Cao Yi word for word. However, Cao Yi didn't understand anything, and when he heard it, he couldn't help but change color. He forced a smile and said, "Chen Ao, I'm not scared, don't you want to bluff me!"

Chen Ao sneered: "What am I trying to scare you for? Do you think that history cannot be changed? Wrong! History has changed since we came to this era! Think about it, if it weren't for you, would the Great Song Dynasty have a Joy Mountain Villa? If it weren't for you, would someone transplant poppies to a small island in the East China Sea? If we didn't resist the Liao army, wouldn't the Great Song Dynasty really not perish?"

Cao Yi's expression was ugly, and he muttered to himself: "No, no, no......"

Chen Ao couldn't help but ask, "What did you say?"

Cao Yi said: "No, no, the two of us are like a drop of water, how can we change the direction of the great river of history?"

Chen Ao was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but say, "Yohe, when did you become so literate? A drug dealer, don't engage in conspiracy and tricks, and change your career to study?"

Cao Yi didn't get angry, but said with a serious face: "Chen Ao, do you remember the Shaolin Temple Martial Arts Conference? The reason why I didn't have time to rush over that time was because I took the time to meet two people......

Chen Ao vaguely remembered such an incident and said, "I heard that you met two Fanbang monks?"

Cao Yi waved his hand and said, "What Fanbang monks, they are the wise men of the Persian Zoroastrian religion." Chen Ao, I can also tell you that I don't want to stay in this era at all. The reason why I came into contact with those wise men was that I heard that they were studying the mysteries of time and space. Maybe they can figure out the mysteries of time travel, and we'll be able to go back to the 21st century!"

Chen Ao was stunned, and threw aside the emergency military situation for a while. At one point, he also thought about going back to the time where he had lived for twenty years, where his parents, relatives, classmates and friends were there. It's just that after so long, it's almost impossible to travel through time and space again. Unexpectedly, Cao Yi suddenly mentioned this matter.

Cao Yi said again: "Do I still remember that on the night of our accident, there was a strange cloud in the sky? Although I didn't tell those people the truth, they listened to my description, and they knew that the cloud was the so-called gate of time and space. Because two years ago, they had already noticed that this cloud had appeared over Europe. The year was 1000 A.D., so people in the West thought it was an apocalyptic sign. Zoroastrian wise men tracked the cloud, moving from east to west. I have been chasing for two years, and when I chased to the Central Plains, I suddenly found that the clouds were gone. They don't know why, don't you know why? That's because we fell out of that!"

The more Chen Ao listened, the more evil he felt, but he couldn't help but ask, "Can we really go back?"

Cao Yi was already excited and said, "Of course. The wise men said that after years of research, they had come up with a way to open the door of time and space. A large part of the reason why I have tried so hard to gain His Majesty's favor is that I want His Majesty to finance my enormous financial resources to accomplish this! I can also tell you that I have sent people to carry a large amount of treasure to Tibet and bury it in a mountain in the future Tibet. I have carefully calculated that in the next thousand years, no matter what kind of turmoil occurs, that place will not be affected. When I return to the future, I will still be rich!"

Chen Ao didn't expect that Cao Yi would look shallow and be so far-sighted. Listening to his plan, Chen Ao couldn't help but feel a little excited. But soon, he came back to reality. Whether you can travel through time and space again and return to the future, no one can say. But now that the Khitans have hit the eyes, it is an urgent fact. If he was beaten by the Khitans, he would die in the war, or he would be sentenced by Zhao Heng for delaying the fighter. At that time, even if there was a lot of treasure buried, it would be in vain.

Chen Ao waved his hand and said, "Cao Yi, I am very grateful to you for sharing this secret with me. But shall we get over the current difficulties first?"

Cao Yi calmed down his excitement, returned to his previous state of disdain, and snorted coldly: "Chen Ao, don't try to trick me into going to the battlefield. I haven't been to school for a few years, but I'm not stupid. I've also fought in group fights, and no one can guarantee that you won't get hurt in group fights. What are we doing now? Fighting with tens of thousands of people, that's going to kill people! What do you think I'm doing with so many people with an axe? Is it really for the sake of fighting?"

Chen Ao had already guessed that he brought so many people just to be able to escape safely at a critical moment. It is also difficult to be shameless to this extent. Chen Ao was no longer ready to convince Cao Yi, he sighed and said, "Since this is the case, then let's not embarrass each other." Cao Yi, since you don't want to go to the front line, it's better to stay in Lanzhou and supervise the grain and grass. Tomorrow I will take my soldiers and horses and cross the river to the north, what do you think?"

Cao Yi thought about it and hesitated. After all, he is a supervising army, and he can use various excuses to delay the speed of the army's march, such as maintaining the physical strength of the soldiers, strictly preventing the advance of light enemies, and so on. But if you leave the team without permission, then there are some things that shouldn't be.

Cao Yi asked, "You let me stay? You won't sue me for black affairs in the future?"

Chen Ao was a little helpless, thinking to himself, Lao Tzu will be as knowledgeable as you?

He waved his hand, got up and said, "Anyway, it's decided, I'll take people north early tomorrow morning." You stay or not, whatever you want!"

Cao Yi couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay!

Chen Ao didn't say goodbye to him and went straight out. Cao Yi looked at Chen Ao's back and couldn't help shouting: "Chen Ao, don't worry, when I finish that thing, I will take you with me! Don't forget to prepare early!"
