Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms

What can we say about dying on the battlefield? Even if Chen Xi's pension is good, most of the time, the pension obtained by the dead person will definitely not be better for the family than the living person!

Well, the reason why it is most of the time is mainly because there is still a strange situation like the last battle to destroy the Kushan Empire. However, even if it is actually issued at that time, the pension and the benefits are basically the same, and the lack of emotional level cannot be made up.

So Cao Ang said that the most important thing next is to stabilize people's hearts. Cao Ren agrees, but there is still a considerable distance between knowing what to do and what can be done.

"Do you have any good suggestions? Don't worry about making mistakes. We can discuss it together." Cao Ang looked at the people present and said slowly.

"Where did my elder brother go?" Xiahou Yuan opened his eyes and looked at Cao Ang and asked. He was not asking as a minister, but asking as a relative. But in this scene, how can I say it? It's thanks to Cao Ang's good mentality. If it were Cao Cao, he would definitely be dealt with if he put on airs.

"After my father gave me the crown, he left with Gongtai. As for where he went, I don't know. Maybe he went boating in Yunmeng." Cao Ang said calmly.

What Cao Ang said was true. The real Cao Cao left with Chen Gong. He wanted to send someone to protect him, but Chen Gong told Cao Ang that any protection was useless and would only expose him. Just leave it to him. Cao Cao also said the same thing. Cao Ang had no choice but to let it go.

"What about the assassination?" Xiahou Yuan said with a gloomy face.

"After a few days, release Gao Yi and others." Cao Ang seemed to not know that Xiahou Yuan was asking about the future, and answered the other party with a past event.

Gao Yi and Hua Ben were indeed top veterans. Lu Zhao, who was finally located with the sunset arrow, was also a leader among the veterans in Xuzhou, but in front of Dian Wei, he was not at the level of Huang Tao and could not escape.

As a result, they were captured by Dian Wei one by one, given some muscle relaxants, and thrown into the prison. However, Cao Ang did not intend to settle accounts. He was ready to throw these guys out in a few days. Even if they were not even, these people would not trouble Cao Cao in the short term, which could be regarded as eliminating some of the grievances with Xuzhou.

"I'm talking about how to deal with the assassination of those guys in Xuzhou next!" Xiahou Yuan forced the topic back as if he didn't understand Cao Ang's interruption.

"It's OK if you can't find it." Cao Ang shook his head and said, this is why Chen Gong took Cao Cao away. The way in this world that Zhuge Liang couldn't find Cao Cao has always been in Chen Gong's hands.

As a person who has seen the world barrier with his own eyes, Chen Gong knows very well what the essence of his isolation of Xuanxiang is. The current situation is that as long as Cao Cao is still in this world, the veterans of Xuzhou will definitely find Cao Cao, and even if some special techniques are used to isolate the lock of the veterans of Xuzhou, Zhuge Liang will definitely find Cao Cao as long as he is willing to be ruthless.

Zhuge Liang didn't have to die himself, but if he reported the coordinates, it would be completely reasonable. As long as there were coordinates, the old soldiers from Xuzhou would naturally come to find him.

So first make a bunch of fake bodies, and then build a closed world so that Zhuge Liang could not determine Cao Cao's location, so that he could survive.

However, Chen Gong estimated that the time he could survive was limited, and if he was unlucky, even if the blockade of the world layer was effective, Cao Cao would die if he met someone from Xuzhou.

As for guards, for Chen Gong, it was not very meaningful. If there were too many people, it would make the target too big. Without a strong man like Dian Wei, guards of more than a dozen or dozens of people would not make much sense when facing the top elites from Xuzhou who came thousands of miles to take revenge.

It would be better to just go on the road, at least the target would be much smaller. Of course, if there were no guards, and if he happened to meet the old soldiers from Xuzhou who came to take revenge and died on the spot, it would only be bad luck.

"I have no problem." Xiahou Yuan sat back in his seat in a muffled voice. Although he didn't know what Cao Cao's situation was, Cao Ang's answer was at least reassuring.

Cao Ang looked at the civil and military officials on both sides and couldn't help but sigh. In addition to Liu Bei, the civil and military officials under their Cao family were the most gorgeous group, but the real combat effectiveness they could exert was the lowest among the major violent groups, especially after the over-issue incident, people's hearts were scattered.

It's just that credibility is difficult to establish, but it is extremely easy to destroy. As for the difficulty of rebuilding, just look at the current Cao family and you will know, the same difficulty.

"Continue to organize people to rescue the disaster." Seeing the low morale of his civil and military officials, Cao Ang couldn't help but sigh and ordered, stop other things first, put disaster relief at the forefront, rebuilding credibility can only be done slowly, do what you can first.

After all the civil and military officials left, Cao Ang sat in the main seat and sighed. This position was not easy to sit in. Even though Cao Ang had temporarily taken over for a while when Cao Cao was not around, when his father really left, Cao Ang sat in this position again and still felt the pressure.

"It seems that many people have too much to say, but after seeing me, they hesitated to speak." Cao Ang sighed, sat in the main seat, and opened the briefcase that Xun You had given him before. There was a thick stack of official documents, but looking at the slightly discolored paper, Cao Ang knew that this thing had been around for a long time.

This thing was not what Xun You said, but Xun Yu asked him to bring it. Xun You took it from Xun Yu to answer questions for Cao Ang. Compared with Cao Cao, in Xun You's opinion, Cao Ang's temperament might be more suitable for Xun Yu. His uncle has been very restrained for so many years.

Cao Ang picked up the stack of documents and read them slowly, but he saw it until dark.

"Ang'er, I heard that you haven't eaten since the meeting in the morning, and you have been here all the time, so I made some porridge and came to see you. Even if you have something bothering you, you can't not eat." Madam Bian came here with a food box when it was dark. She heard in the afternoon that Cao Ang had been locking himself in the government office since the meeting, and he had not eaten. She was a little worried, so she brought some food to see you.

To be honest, after Cao Cao fell, the status of Lady Bian and Cao Ang changed the most. In the past, these things would never reach Lady Bian's ears. Now Lady Bian is a real old lady. As a son, Cao Ang will naturally be told by someone. In the past, unless Cao Ang was about to be killed, such news would never reach Lady Bian.

"Ah?" Cao Ang reacted after hearing what Lady Bian said, and then he looked up and found that it was already dark, so he quickly stood up and saluted Lady Bian.

"It's already dark. I was obsessed with what Xun Junshi wrote before, and I didn't notice that it was already dark." Cao Ang apologized quickly. Although he hadn't eaten anything for a day, Cao Ang was in a very good spirit, and even the sorrow during the previous meeting had dissipated a lot, because Xun Yu's file gave Cao Ang many answers.

More importantly, according to the above plan, it is only a matter of time to advance step by step and regain the confidence of the people under Cao's rule.

"I can see that you are in a much better mood than yesterday and this morning. Don't worry about your father. I have known Chen Gongtai for more than ten years. He will not do anything without a purpose." Mrs. Bian thought that Cao Ang was worried about Cao Cao's safety, so she persuaded him and took out the porridge from the food box beside him.

"I still have confidence in Uncle Chen." Cao Ang sighed lightly, "I just saw many solutions to problems in the official documents of Xun Junshi."

"Xun Wenruo." Mrs. Bian was silent for a while after hearing this, "Your father and Xun Wenruo seem to be like-minded, but as far as I feel, your father and Xun Wenruo will fall out sooner or later. In fact, Xun Wenruo's talent is even better than Chen Gongtai, but he is not suitable to play under your father's command."

"If it were before, I would have some doubts about this, but after reading this, I no longer doubt it." Cao Ang shook the stack of official documents in his hand, "Maybe it's really that Xun Junshi is not suitable to get along with my father. Many of the plans here cannot be implemented when my father is in power. OK."

"It's not that it can't be implemented, but Xun Wenruo has always hoped to correct some of the flaws in your father's nature." Madam Bian had analyzed it from a third-party perspective earlier, so when she said this, her mentality was extremely peaceful, "Unfortunately, there are too many people around who conform to your father's nature, and Xun Wenruo's advice is useless, and even lays the groundwork for some disasters."

"Mother, don't you take back your spiritual talent?" Cao Ang asked with some doubts when he took over the bowl. He was able to grasp the core ideas of the document sent by Xun You so quickly, and a large part of the reason was due to the enhancement brought by Madam Bian's spiritual talent, so Cao Ang was somewhat surprised why his mother didn't take it back on her own initiative.

"I can't use it. You need this thing to operate your power and allocate your rule. In your father's words, my future historical status depends on you." Madam Bian said calmly, and it was really useless for her to hold this spiritual talent.

"I will try my best." Cao Ang said in a muffled voice, without any intention of refusing. If he had felt that there was a gap between him and the spiritual talent owner before, it would not be a huge difference. But his mother let him experience the planning and thinking ability of the spiritual talent owner, and Cao Ang realized that even if the gap was not a huge difference, it was still too big to be measured.

"I am a woman, and I don't understand those military and national affairs very well, but from my experience back then, most people refuse something because of insufficient benefits. Things like trust and morality are important, but most people just use this as an excuse." Mrs. Bian exposed the so-called benevolence and morality nakedly. After all, as a prostitute, she had seen a lot of the warmth and coldness of the world, and she knew very well the shallowness of benevolence and morality.

Of course, Mrs. Bian also knew that the upper limit of benevolence and morality was far higher than the so-called benefits, but most of the time in this world, defeating the opponent does not rely on the upper limit, but on not being so bad.

"Mother, let me try my method first." Cao Ang said with a smile.

If he could rebuild trust and maintain the existing values, Cao Ang would not want to enter a society built on profit-seeking values. In a society built on reputation and morality, at least everyone has a place, even the weak can find their own place. But if he enters a society built on profit-seeking values, everyone is equal in front of interests, but without interests, it means that this person has lost his place in society.

This is really too sad.

"So I am just a woman." Madam Bian did not think that Cao Ang was disobedient for not agreeing with her suggestion. She had a very good mentality. She could rely on her husband and her son. Although spiritual talents could be used for struggle, wouldn't it be better to use them for her husband and son?

Marry into a good family, give birth to a good son, rely on your husband to become a queen, rely on your son to strive to become the Queen Mother, what should I strive for? How much of my destiny was changed by my efforts?

Basically, it cannot be changed. As early as when she was eight or nine years old, Mrs. Bian realized that she could not change her destiny through her own efforts. She was born in a prostitute’s family, so struggle. No matter how hard you struggle, you cannot change your destiny. In some damn times, personal Qualifications and struggles are meaningless most of the time. The outcome is even determined when you are born.

Women like Mrs. Bian and Zheng Ling, who relied on self-study to develop spiritual talents in their forties or fifties, had actually realized their origin, destiny, social structure, and the oppression of society on them when they were eight or nine years old.

After realizing this, we still study hard, enrich ourselves, and seize every opportunity to jump out of this quagmire. This is how people like Mrs. Bian and Zheng Ling came to be.

The question is, what happens after you jump out?

Keep fighting?

Most of them are not anymore, because their obsession back then was directly achieved with that leap. After all, under the constraints of this damn era, they can still escape, which basically means that at the moment of escape , they directly realized their wishes.

As a prostitute, Mrs. Bian's goal is to marry a good family and escape from this damn environment. As for becoming the concubine of a prince, a prince's princess, or the queen mother and so on, she just goes with the flow and jumps out of the prostitute. For Bian As far as the lady is concerned, her great wish has come true.

Therefore, Mrs. Bian is very open-minded. If Cao Ang is willing to listen to his life experience, then listen to it. If he is not willing to listen, then he will not listen. There is no need to restrain Cao Ang. After Cao Cao left Kandahar, the biggest danger to the Cao family has disappeared, and the remaining No matter which step you take, it is a matter of winning more and losing less for Mrs. Bian.

Therefore, it was best for Cao Ang to make his own choice, and he gave him the help he could. The rest of the way was left to the descendants to walk on their own.

When Cao Ang heard what Mrs. Bian said, he laughed twice and wanted to explain. Mrs. Bian shook her head, "No need to explain. This is not to pressure you, but a fact. I don't want to get involved in these things. You can handle it best." , If you can’t handle it, I actually can’t help you.”

"Your spiritual talent has brought me a lot of help." Cao Ang shook his head and said. Without Mrs. Bian's spiritual talent, it would have taken Cao Ang several years to figure out many things.

"I have no spiritual talent. This is your spiritual talent." Mrs. Bian shook her head and said. Cao Ang thought for a moment and finally remembered the matter.

"Go to bed early after eating. Don't put too much pressure on yourself, and don't imitate your father. Just be yourself." Mrs. Bian looked at Cao Ang who had finished eating, put away the bowls and chopsticks, and warned before leaving. After saying a few words, he quickly held an umbrella and left.

"Go and notify Mr. Mao to come over." After Mrs. Bian left, Cao Ang took a deep breath and greeted Xiahou Ba outside. Rest, how can you rest? He now wants to clean up the mess left by his father as quickly as possible. Good, otherwise, this opportunity may really be missed.

Soon Mao Jie rushed over. After all, he was the first counselor to take the initiative to approach Cao Ang, and his abilities were quite excellent, so Cao Ang still needed to discuss certain matters with Mao Jie first.

As for Xun Yu, who wrote this official document that answered Cao Ang's doubts, if it were the previous Cao Ang, Xun You could have relied on his mental talent to make Cao Ang ignore some details, and then simply believed that Xun Yu really had a mental breakdown and needed to rest for a while. But now that Cao Ang has the same level of planning ability, it is impossible to hide some things in person - Xun Yu is not optimistic about Cao Ang.

Unlike the situation where Xun Yu couldn't understand Cao Cao's nature but had to cooperate, Xun Yu's disapproval of Cao Ang was the same as Cao Cao's disfavor of Cao Ang before. This was a lack of ability.

In other words, Xun Yu believed that Cao Ang could stabilize Cao Cao's power, but Xun Yu was not optimistic that Cao Ang could defeat Ardashir. If he could not defeat Ardashir, the Cao family would have no hope in the future.

If they can capture Herat, Kandahar, Kabul, and penetrate the Khyber and enter the Indus Plain, then even if the Cao family cannot become a hegemon in the future, as long as future generations do not make mistakes, they will be able to seize the opportunity to become a hegemon sooner or later, because the general trend of the world will inevitably converge after a long period of separation. The Cao family, which has a large area of ​​grain-producing land due to the dangers of mountains and rivers, will be able to wait for the opportunity sooner or later.

But without taking Ardashir, there would be no Kabul, and without passing through Kabul and entering Khyber, there would be no Indus plain.

Without these, Cao would be just a vassal king who was slightly stronger than the ordinary Central Asian vassals.

There is no future for this.

Cao Ang understood this. Although he was not angry, he didn't want to ask Xun Yu at this time. Whether he could do it or not was not something Xun Yu thought was useful, it was done.

"Mr. Mao, with the support of Cao and other generals, how long will it take for you to organize manpower transfer to centurions and above in various ministries?" After Cao Ang saw Mao Jie, he directly stated his mission without any concealment, "I Now we need to gather all the centurions. I will let Barak and others do this in Beigui, but we also need Mr. Mao to organize it.”

Damn it, Damn it, I went to get my computer repaired today and I don’t understand it at all.
