"Brother Huang? You saw Cao Sikong fall and the crown prince ascend the throne at noon, and now you run back to inform the general of this matter?" Weng Fu was silent for a while and asked Huang Tao, how did you manage to come back so quickly, did you fly?

"Yes, I ran and flew all the way, and finally flew back before dark." Huang Tao said as a matter of course, but when he said this, Huang Tao's eyes did not even leave Liu Bei, because the extraordinary question he asked before was not actually asked for himself, but for those Xuzhou veterans.

Although Huang Tao is also a veteran of Xuzhou, Huang Tao is from Huaibei and his ancestral home is Guangling. If Lao Cao could massacre Guangling, the whole of Xuzhou would fall, so Huang Tao only knew about this matter, but he had no direct hatred with Lao Cao himself.

In theory, Huang Tao's five-serving circle of relationships has not been hit by Lao Cao, but if the veterans who are familiar with Huang Tao are counted, then the blows suffered are too much.

How should I put it? Huang Tao basically knows all the top veterans just like Liu Bei, and Huang Tao has basically participated in one or several important banquets in the lives of these elite veterans. In the early years, Huang Tao did not reach the current mobility, and he could travel all over the country in a short time.

I still remember when Liu Bei met Huang Tao in Yangzhou, he asked Huang Tao why he was seconded here to be a centurion. Huang Tao's answer was that his ex-wife had passed away, and he had no children at the time, so he went around to relax and attend various wedding banquets. Then he met his current wife when he came to Wujun in Yangzhou to attend a wedding banquet for his fellow soldiers, so he got married in Wujun.

So if Huang Tao wants to talk about the veteran circle, his reputation and status are all quite impressive. After all, who doesn't like a brother who got married in Youzhou and brought a few Yellow River carp that normally locals would never see in their lives to attend the wedding banquet from afar.

So Huang Tao actually didn't ask this for himself, because he had no grudge against Cao. Although they were all from Xuzhou, Xuzhou was too big. It was just that his fellow soldiers wanted to eat Cao alive, so after determining the right time, Huang Tao would naturally ask for this group of people.

However, Liu Bei couldn't answer this question directly, he could only change the subject, but this attitude of not denying was enough for Huang Tao, after all, he was the first-hand information now, and Cao Ang couldn't think that someone in Xuzhou had received and confirmed the news.

This time difference was enough for the Xuzhou people to take the initiative. As for whether they could kill Cao, it depended on luck. Huang Tao couldn't even be sure whether Cao was sent to Congling. To be more direct, at this point in time, after Hua Ben, Gao Yi and other Xuzhou people were exposed, if Cao Ang was not stupid, he would definitely make a lot of arrangements when sending Cao Cao away.

Therefore, Huang Tao deeply doubted whether the old Cao he saw being sent to the north was really the old Cao. After all, in terms of technical strength, even a god like Huang Tao could not compare with the world-class power of the Cao family. But for Huang Tao, whether it was the old Cao or not was put aside first. He would first send back the news of the downfall of the old Cao, and naturally there would be a group of people in Xuzhou who would try to confirm it.

To put it bluntly, all the fellow villagers of Lao Lu were slaughtered by Lao Cao. Although when his fellow villagers were slaughtered by Lao Cao, the old Lu people were still trying to go to Yizhou and go down the Yangtze River to return to Xuzhou in a big circle, when he returned to Xuzhou, his fellow villagers were just like grass and had been replaced by a crop!

Although Lao Lu deeply expressed that he had not been back for decades and that he was almost a Liangzhou person, and his relationship with Xuzhou was not that deep, but when he returned to his hometown, he found that the peers who played with him naked in the past had become steamed buns. What did Lao Lu think?

Normally, no one would pick on this matter. Lao Lu would definitely have the same attitude as Huang Tao. After all, he was the Han Sikong and had to give face to the Han Empire. Moreover, his relatives were not affected and he did not feel any pain. At most, when the local brother mentioned this matter, they could stand on the same side. But to say how active, Huang Tao and Lao Lu were not active.

If we say that these two are the real big daddies of Xuzhou, Gao Yi's six-fold smelting with a finishing move is also substantially different from these two. However, these two basically have a rule-abiding attitude towards this matter, and only those who can calm down and look at this incident from an outsider's perspective can have a rule-abiding attitude.

The real victim, even if he is rational enough, cannot have a so-called rule-abiding attitude when the law cannot give a fair answer.

Gao Yi can look at the problem with the attitude of punishing the chief culprit, which is not Gao Yi's rationality, but Gao Yi has killed enough soldiers under Cao Cao on the battlefield and can look at the problem calmly.

Among Gao Yi's six elite talents, there is a very special idealistic talent, that is, the enemy's fatal attack cannot cause fatal damage to him in the first attack, and non-fatal damage is all suppressed by Gao Yi's life will.

This idealistic talent is the idealism that Gao Yi sublimated and smelted from killing a large number of soldiers under Lao Cao. His earliest mentality was that all the soldiers under Lao Cao should die. If he didn't kill these people, he would never die. His whole family and ancestors were watching him, and he would never die at the hands of Cao thieves and his subordinates. Relying on this life-threatening method, Gao Yi paid a soldier under Lao Cao for his whole family and all his ancestors for five generations, and it was more than enough.

He had killed enough, so he calmed down and began to choose to kill the chief culprit.

Because it is meaningless for Gao Yi to continue killing ordinary Cao soldiers. Only Lao Cao himself is meaningful. Of course, if Lao Cao's brothers can be encountered and killed, Gao Yi will not waste them.

Even for Gao Yi, as long as the officers under Lao Cao do not stop him from killing Lao Cao, he will not feel anything special, unless it is confirmed that these officers killed his acquaintances. As long as they did not kill acquaintances, Gao Yi will basically not pursue it.

After all, Chen Xi's answer is very clear, and he has killed enough people, and he can understand and accept Chen Xi's answer. It is enough to kill Cao Cao. It doesn't matter whether the others are innocent or not. If they block the way to kill Lao Cao, then do it. If they don't block it, then don't care, because in that era, everyone has a bloody hand.

Lao Lu and Huang Tao are not victims, so they follow the rules, but because of the rules, their comrades asked countless times; and when there is a real opportunity, Huang Tao will set the rules.

When Cao Cao was one of the Three Dukes, I could not ask this question, nor could I kill him, because he was the pillar of the country. Now that he has fallen and is no longer one of the Three Dukes, his identity is just a rich man, and his title has been passed on to Cao Ang. Am I killing him just for personal revenge? Yes!

Liu Bei did not give an answer, but not giving an answer was the best answer, because not answering can be understood as tacit consent, and even if it is misunderstood, it does not directly deny, which means that the murderer is just paying with his life.

There are at least 800 brothers in Xuzhou who are willing to die with Cao Cao, if not a thousand. If we count those ordinary people who have long had no chance, who are suppressed by the social system, have no power, no time, and no leisure, and cannot do anything out of anger, then there are at least 80,000 people, if not 100,000!

A person who died with Cao Cao for revenge for more than 100,000 fellow villagers is at least a hero. Not to mention in ancient times, even in modern times, there are countless people who are unwilling to live in mediocrity and be heroes for a few seconds!

"Brother Huang's swiftness is indeed great." Xia Fei said with some emotion. It is precisely because of the same smelting of swiftness that he can more clearly understand how exaggerated Huang Tao's mobility is.

"It's almost there. The point of the fleeting light and shadow still cannot be locked. If this can be accomplished, long distances will not be so troublesome." Huang Tao shook his head and said, then looked at Liu Bei, "General, please make plans early. The news of Cao Sikong's abdication will probably spread soon."

"Forget it, Mei Wan, add a pair of chopsticks for Huang Tao, and talk about this after eating." Liu Bei's mind moved slightly, and he felt that he did not seem to have a very good way to deal with this matter. Moreover, things have come to this point, and we will see the outcome. Besides, there are still Chen Xi and others. For such a big matter, Huang Tao is not much faster than the official, and professional intelligence organizations are not vegetarians.

Mei Wan nodded upon hearing this. The general was indeed open-minded. It was not appropriate to do anything else at this point. Besides, he was a veteran from Yanzhou. You know what veterans from Yanzhou are like. The people from Xuzhou said they wanted to kill Cao Cao. Mei Wan knew the reason very well. How should I put it? I was the one who dug the graves?

The problem is that you blame me? I was a small soldier who didn't follow the orders of the fucking superiors. Wouldn't I be subject to military punishment? I didn't have the combat power I have now. Oh, if I had the combat power I have now, I would still be digging graves. This matter could not be avoided.

To be honest, Mei Wan didn't feel any pressure about the Xuzhou incident. He was the type who did whatever he was told to do. Oh, Li Huan was the same. He and Li Huan, Bi Laoliu, Huang Fang and the others followed Liu Bei after Cao Cao fell and Liu Bei took over.

In fact, Zhao Zhen is also one of them. No one would think that he was born in Yanzhou. He is the only one in the world who has opened the Heavenly Demon Disintegration and is still alive. He can reach the seventh level of smelting. Although Zhao Zhen, who has fallen down, has only been a soldier in the past ten years.

What a joke, Zhao Zhen was also a soldier in Yanzhou!

This is why Zhao Zhen, an extremely active veteran, has basically never been in the same frame with Huang Tao, Lao Lu, Fu Ji and other top brothers in Xuzhou, because Zhao Zhen really did it!

Yanzhou veterans have lived to this day, who has not done it to reach the fifth level? To be honest, if you didn't join the army at that time, how talented would you have to be to be able to reach the sixth level of smelting now? The youngest sixth-level smelter in the world, An Ling An Gouzi, also joined the army sixteen years ago, not to mention others.

If you want to say that this group of people are bad, their behavior during that period completely fits the description of bad, but if you want to put the blame on this level, then Chen Xi has a lot to say, because according to this description, more than 70% of the people in the Han Dynasty must die.

This is not the right way to say it. Things like the background of the times must be considered, so Chen Xi's way of dealing with many things is to punish the chief culprit, and then at most extend it to the management level. In the military management, the executive level has basically no way to refuse, so the executive level should not be included in the crime, but should be identified as a mistake.

Of course, when the executive level was executing this thing, it was also deserved to be hacked to death...

Based on this logic, all the senior executives of the Dong Zhuo Group should be liquidated, and similarly, the senior executives of the Cao Cao Group should also be liquidated.

Of course, the Dong Zhuo Group was not completely liquidated, but Dong Zhuo himself and some of the senior executives were liquidated. Dong Zhuo's entire family will be eliminated, and I will light a sky lantern to repay the lives of the millions of people who moved the capital to Luoyang. It may not be enough, but there were only Three Idiots and Li Ru left in the entire Dong Zhuo group. Li Ru changed his name and the common people had no idea that he was still alive, so it was completely reasonable for the Three Idiots to be assassinated by people from Luoyang.

After all, the three idiots were the executive layer, and the remaining management was behind them. Even if they were not the main culprits, it was completely reasonable for them to share some of the crimes, and it was natural for them to be assassinated. As for Li You, the lower level didn't know that he was Li Ru, but the upper level and the noble families knew it very well, but they had no time to calculate these things with Li You.

Just like the three kings and most of the wealthy families, there is no time to settle accounts with the three idiots now, because they have other things to do.

Just like the old saying, ordinary people have short-sightedness and can only look at the present, because they have to consider how to survive today. Without today, there is no need to consider tomorrow. The reason why the noble families and the wealthy have a long-term vision is that they no longer need to think about how to survive today, and they have enough time to think about the future.

It's not that ordinary people can't see the future, but that they are exhausted for today's survival.

So the noble families can be patient and wait for the opportunity to come before revenge, while ordinary people are exhausted just by considering the problems in front of them.

Just like the so-called "living off parents", why are ordinary families called "living off parents" when they try their best to help their children? Don't wealthy families support their offspring, or give less than ordinary families? Do wealthy families really let their children become independent at the age of 18?

What nonsense! If Xun Wenruo was selected as a filial and honest official, he would be the palace guard. No one would think that this was Xun Yu's own ability. Just think about how much effort the Xun family has put in behind the scenes.

In other words, Dong Zhuo took the biggest responsibility for the crimes of his forces. Even if Dong Zhuo died, the management would have to take the responsibility, and the executive personnel below the management would all be considered mistakes. Only if they were caught on the spot and their appearance and names were remembered, would they be considered guilty, otherwise they would be let go.

However, the outrageous thing about the Xiliang Iron Cavalry is that this group of people can even make the executive layer commit crimes that are remembered by many people and even recorded in history books. The thousands of Xiliang Iron Cavalry that need to be blackmailed are basically the executive layer, but their crimes...

On the other hand, the crimes of Cao Cao's forces are actually not as good as those of Dong Zhuo's group. However, if we compare it with Dong Zhuo, the leader of the power, who exterminated all nine clans, set himself on fire, and killed all his sons-in-law, relatives, and brothers, leaving only the early three executive layers and the later management layer, then Lao Cao's whole family must be killed, but Lao Cao had not offended the aristocratic families before, so the backlash was not that serious.

But even so, if we really compare it by the number of massacres, Cao Cao only massacred Xuzhou in this life, which is one-tenth of Dong Zhuo's crimes, and this is not something that can be paid for by the death of Lao Cao.

I can only say that it's all fate, but it really does matter whether it's noble or not, or to be more direct, Chen Xi's reputation has indeed shared a lot of guilt for Lao Cao, and Yuan Feng's previous forgiveness at least avoided the situation where Lao Cao had to choose between lighting the sky lantern and playing the Nine Clans Candy Crush.

Similarly, the crimes of the executive layer were basically cleared by Liu Bei and Chen Xi.

Otherwise, in the case of Mei Wan, should she also be executed?

In addition to killing people from Xuzhou, Mei Wan also killed people from Yuzhou and Jizhou. In Mei Wan's words, the order from above is to kill people, and if I don't kill, I will be killed. What do you think! I deserve to be killed by you, and I deserve to be killed by you. If you don't have this awareness, you'll be killed!

It's true that those who engage in massacres are beasts, but I can't fight against the orders from the top, and I don't want to die!

This type of crime was attributed by Chen Xi to the crime of the times. This is also the reason why Chen Xi allowed the Yellow Turbans to worship Daqushuai, because the idea of ​​overthrowing this crime was correct, but the power was not enough.

Similarly, Liu Bei and Chen Xi were able to cut off this karma. In addition to their own justice, another very important point was their power. In this fucked-up era, without power, no matter how righteous they were, it was useless. The bunch of Xuzhou people who died at the hands of Zhao Zhen, which one did not fight for justice, but it was useless, they couldn't do it.

So after Cao Cao fell, Liu Bei didn't want to say anything extra. The Xuzhou people were killed successfully, and the debt of that person was cleared. This matter ended here. The Cao family and the Xiahou family, as well as the Cao family officers who participated in the Xuzhou massacre, stopped here. If someone assassinated these people, the murderer would pay with his life.

Of course, after killing them and escaping, the Han Dynasty turned a blind eye. According to universal morality and the great revenge theory of Gongyang Spring and Autumn, they ran away. If the official met them, they would be arrested. If they didn't meet them, the officials would not investigate if the people didn't report them.

The three idiots also executed this, because the three idiots were considered executives before Dong Zhuo died, and even if they were included in the management, Dong Zhuo's nine clans' elimination game plus some sky lanterns would have offset a lot.

Therefore, in essence, their guilt is more of a crime that continued after Dong Zhuo's death, and there was no Li Guo rebellion in this life, and there were fewer vicious incidents later, so the guilt was actually not enough to kill the whole clan.

It's just that the three idiots illegally killed the Wang family, and the Wang family must be killed back.

Wang Ling can even pat his chest and express revenge. When his family comes to the door, the three idiots' allies can take as many as they can, but the others must die, and the descendants of the three idiots can also inherit the title. What situation he encountered back then, the descendants of the three idiots will have to encounter!

They actually compared the three idiots with Cao Cao, saying that the three idiots did so many evil things but didn't die, so why should Cao Cao die? Cao Cao's target was Dong Zhuo, okay? The three idiots were not targeting Cao Ren, Cao Hong, and Xiahou brothers, but Le Jin, Xu Huang, and others. In my book, Li and Guo hadn't turned against each other yet, and hadn't started the disaster mode, but Sima Lang persuaded them to stop, and then pulled two carts of Cai Yong's calligraphy to Zhong Yao, who made a big move. This is why the Luoyang brother assassinated the three idiots, and the Chang'an brother informed him, because the disaster link with Li and Guo as the leaders of the power was not started at all in this book, but Cao Cao, as the leader of the power, needs to bear the guilt of the entire power. The so-called accepting the country's stigma is called the master of the country. Book friends should not think that Cao Cao, who ordered the massacre of Xuzhou to avenge his father, is as guilty as the Xiahou brothers, the Cao brothers, and Li Dian, who organized the soldiers to massacre.

Comparing Cao's crime of ordering the massacre with the crime of the three idiots for moving the capital is basically the same logic. Cao's crime can only be compared with that of Dong Zhuo who ordered the relocation of the capital. Of course, this crime is indeed smaller than Dong Zhuo's relocation of the capital, but if compared with the three idiots, the three idiots were organizers, not leaders. If we really want to talk about the leaders' crimes, the official history must wait until Li and Guo are in power. In my book, the three idiots did not have time to split up due to lack of food. The crimes that really needed to be settled during the entire period of Chang'an's rule, in addition to the problems left by Dong Zhuo, were actually more about intimidating Emperor Liu Xie and exterminating the Wang family of Taiyuan. There is nothing much to say about the latter. The Wang family of Taiyuan will come back sooner or later. There is no way to talk about homomorphic revenge, and the law is meaningless at this point.
