Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms

"Father, from a certain perspective, my gambling nature is stronger than yours." Cao Ang walked out of the main hall with stiff steps. He needed to see Madam Bian. Although this time was not appropriate, he had to explain everything he should and should not say.

Cao Ang walked stiffly to the inner courtyard and asked the strong woman who served Madam Bian to wake her up. The strong woman was very hesitant about this, but under Cao Ang's cold look, she still chose to wake Madam Bian up.

"Madam, Madam." Ji Wei entered the inner room and quietly woke Madam Bian up.

After Cao Cao abdicated, Madam Bian had not slept well. As soon as Ji Wei came in, Madam Bian woke up and touched the dagger under the pillow. She was sure that it was the strong woman who served her, so she pretended to have just woken up and slowly answered, "Ji Wei, what's the matter? Call me at night."

"The master of the family came to visit late at night. Does the old lady want to see him?" Ji Wei said cautiously.

"Meng De?" Madam Bian hadn't reacted yet, and then suddenly realized that she was talking about Cao Ang. She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. As a prostitute, she knew a lot of private matters in the rich and powerful families. She couldn't help but feel depressed. Considering her own special situation, she naturally touched the pillow.

"Tell Ang'er that I am unwell. He is already the master of the family. He can decide everything in the family. I am just a woman, so there is no need to ask me." Madam Bian said with some warning.

Ji Wei nodded and left, and brought the words to Cao Ang, who nodded upon hearing it. He felt that his mother was a spiritual talent and knew everything she should know. He warned himself with these words just because he didn't want to hinder his choice. He couldn't help but sighed, kowtowed three times at the door, and went directly to the courtyards where Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, and Cao Zhi lived.

"Madam, the head of the family has left after kowtowed three times." Ji Wei walked in quickly after Cao Ang left and answered Madam Bian.

Madam Bian had a question mark on her head, and she had no idea what happened. She really thought Cao Ang came to see her late at night, and she was sweating coldly. There was no way. Madam Bian's spiritual talent was special. Just holding Cao Ang's hand could separate almost 50% of the calculation amount. If the entire spiritual talent was fully blessed, Cao Ang would definitely reach the top level.

So when Madam Bian heard from the strong woman who served her that Cao Ang came to her late at night, her first reaction was that Cao Ang had realized the logic of her spiritual talent. Although it sounded perverted, Madam Bian, who came from a brothel, was very clear about these things, not to mention that Madam Bian herself sometimes doubted her life because of her own interests.

"Gone? Three kowtows? What's going on?" After Ji Wei left, Madam Bian calmed down, and then quickly realized that something she didn't know had happened. She immediately stood up from the bed, but then sat down again, "Forget it, children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Cao Ang is already the head of the family, and I am already the old lady. I should let Cao Ang decide for himself."

[Meng De, your spirit in heaven must protect Ang'er. ] Madam Bian prayed habitually, and then suddenly realized that Cao Cao was not dead yet. Although he went to another world, it did not mean that he was dead in another world.

Cao Ang quickly gathered all the young and strong people of the Cao and Xiahou families. The number was not too large, only about a hundred people. After all, the Cao and Xiahou families were also powerful in the area. Even if the number of young people over the age of sixteen was not too large, it was impossible that there were only a few.

"Everyone, follow me to the battlefield." It was almost dawn when Cao Ang pulled everyone up from the couch. Then, regardless of the mood of this group of people, he spoke very directly in front of everyone, saying that since he had chosen to do it, he would burn his boats.

Most people present were confused when they heard this. After all, most of the Cao and Xiahou families were mediocre people. There were only a dozen people in a generation who could leave their names, and the remaining hundred people were just born in this family and had this surname. They had all the shortcomings that ordinary people had!

So when the rich children suddenly heard this sentence, follow me to the battlefield, no matter how bad their mood was or how half-awake they were, they suddenly shuddered.

"Brother, what are you talking about?" Xiahou Heng looked at Cao Ang with a start. Although he was older than Xiahou Ba, the gap in ability was huge. He was just an ordinary mediocre person. But as the eldest son, he only needed to be self-aware. In addition, his mother was Ding's sister. From the perspective of relationship, Xiahou Heng and Cao Ang had a very good relationship. He was Cao Ang's iron pillar. But it was precisely because of the pillar that he was even more puzzled by Cao Ang's proposal, because Cao Ang should know that he was not suitable for the battlefield.

"Brother, my brother is not suitable for the battlefield." Xiahou Ba looked at Cao Ang with a strange face. As for him, he had been on the battlefield, sometimes leading troops on the front line, sometimes doing logistics, and he was always there. Although he was not very suitable, at least he could do this.

"Brother, I go to the battlefield?" Cao Zhi's face turned green at this time, and he even pointed his index finger at himself. He was thinking, what can a waste like him do on the battlefield? A whole poem to boost morale?

"I think I can still do it." Cao Pi said eagerly. Although he had never been to the battlefield, he had practiced martial arts with the imperial guards when he was in Chang'an. In fact, Cao Pi and his group were Liu Bei's biggest headache at that time. He was afraid that they would be raised to death, so he specially prepared a set of education plan.

"Brother, you don't need to tell me, I will be the first to charge when the time comes." The young and energetic Cao Zhang said very arrogantly. He has no respect for the battlefield at all, so just do it!

The whole place was in an uproar, with some actively signing up, some expressing doubts, and some clearly refusing, to name a few. The venue became extremely noisy for a while, but since Cao Ang said that, he didn't speak again. The quarrel with the younger generation of the Xiahou family stopped for a while.

There is one biggest difference from the situation when the official Cao Pi succeeded to the throne. In the past thirty years, Cao Ang himself has gained the recognition of all his peers. His ascension to the throne itself is accepted by everyone. This is not just Because of his identity, he really managed to unite his brothers, so the chaotic meeting place only became chaotic for a while when Cao Ang did not speak again.

"This time, the Cao family needs all the young people to charge." Cao Ang said slowly while looking at the people in front of him, "I know there are some who are inappropriate and should not even go to the battlefield, but I have to go this time. Brother Wei can only give you one guarantee, that is, I will be at the forefront when the time comes, and my guards will be allocated to you."

"Brother, what happened? Why did you do this?" Cao Pi raised his hand to tell others not to ask questions. With Cao Ang here, he could suppress many people by doing this, and even many people from the Xiahou family who also wanted to ask this question, Cao Pi After speaking, he also shut up and waited for the answer.

"If you can explain our current situation clearly, please stand up." Cao Ang said while looking at the crowd.

No one stood up. They could only see and understand part of it. In fact, even Cao Ren, the Xiahou brothers, generals with foreign surnames, and even Cao's advisers could not clearly explain why. Cao Ang himself could not, But Cao Ang could barely at least combine the cognitive judgments of the upper and lower levels to make a relatively reasonable decision.

"Let me explain it roughly. Please don't mix your personal feelings into it, and don't interrupt me before I finish speaking." Cao Ang sighed, starting from Liu Ba's policy of saving money, to super thunderstorms, From the operations led by the Cao family and the Xiahou family, to the follow-up of other aristocratic families, to Cao Cao's handling plan, he described it without any personal bias.

"You're just a cunning person, so ignorant of life and death!" After Cao Ang finished speaking, Xiahou Mao slapped the table and stood up. There were many descendants of the Cao family and Xiahou family around him. Although they didn't answer the words, their expressions clearly showed their tendency. Yu Xiahou Mao's cognition.

Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, Cao Zhi, Cao Zhen and others frowned. These people have either accepted Chen Xi's complete moral concept, or have actually been on the battlefield and experienced a lot. They all know that Xiahou Mao's statement may have been considered acceptable in the past. Makes sense, but now...

"There are still hundreds of soldiers like Liang He who carried swords through five gates and entered the inner courtyard." Cao Ang said with a somewhat sad tone, "And there are even more veterans who are slightly weaker than these. Yes, you only have one life. If you don’t care about life or death, the guards can’t protect you.”

Xia Houmao's expression changed when he heard this. Words cannot educate people, but things can.

"Can't we recruit those elites to work for us?" Although Xiahou Mao's expression changed, he still stiffened his neck and said.

"Yes, but some things if we don't talk about morality and only talk about profit, then the benefits required are too many and too much to afford. If calculated purely based on profit, the price of a six-level smelting dead soldier for a medium-sized family I can't even afford it." Cao Ang sighed and said, "But under the moral system, if a six-level smelting elite risked his life to protect one person, it would not cost him more than 100,000 yuan a year."

Many people may not be able to understand this. To use a simple analogy, in an era when moral credibility is reasonably constructed, a teacher with extremely high moral quality and responsible for students' lives, ideals, and future only needs a few thousand yuan a month. Wages, and even part of these wages will be passed on to students, but when the moral credibility structure collapses, the salary you need to provide such a teacher will be more than ten times what it used to be, and it will still not meet the level of responsibility for students that it once had. degree.

In other words, in the past society, a large part of teachers' wages were supported by social moral systems and beliefs. After this was shattered, the existing wages could only support the professional quality of teachers, but not their careers. Morality.

In the past, when the universal moral structure was stable, the teacher profession had a well-known moral threshold. Although there were some rubbish teachers, when talking about teachers, professional quality only accounted for a part, and professional ethics accounted for a high proportion. After the impact of the world's moral structure, the requirements for teachers have become requirements for professional ability, rather than the dual requirements of professional ethics and quality.

And this is just a slight distortion to the overall industry when the moral system changes. It is reflected in Cao's side. If you mess up the moral system, then you have to use other things to pay for the value originally paid with morality. Pay, otherwise, we will not be able to provide you with the same service as before.

After all, everyone is playing in the real style. If something is missing here, it will have to be made up for elsewhere.

"If we don't reshape the moral system, the Cao family will not be able to keep up with such high payment conditions in the future." Cao Ang sighed and said, "So we can only choose to reshape the moral system, and everyone present, including me , are all vested interests of the Cao family, and now it’s time for us to return this interest.”

Cao Pi and other smart people looked a little ugly, but they could understand the logic here, while Xiahou Mao and other mediocre people could not understand the logic here, and could only shout that what a jerk is, we Cao family got it by our own ability, what are they?

"I have to go to the battlefield." Cao Zhi said with a wry smile, "Brother, you will protect me, right?"

"I will lead the troops, so I can't protect you, but you can stay in the rear front." Cao Ang shook his head and said that he and Barak, Cao Wan and others would be on the front line, and even when necessary, he would have to rush forward with weapons to establish people's hearts.

"Is that so." Cao Zhi's expression was extremely complicated, but he still accepted the reality.

"Brother protects you, don't worry." Cao Zhang patted his chest and said.

"Remember to protect brother too." Cao Pi said to Cao Zhang. They were all smart people and could understand Cao Ang's choice. What's more, it was not Cao Ang's fault. This was to repay Cao Cao's debt, and the son's debt was not a problem in morality in this era.

But just as Cao Ang estimated, his acceptance does not mean that others can accept it. He is the head of the Cao family, but the Cao family is not a one-man show. Even if the noble family bets on the founding of the country, it is not to gamble with the extermination of the whole family and the possibility of no rise again. Otherwise, they will still form a group or something. Can't they just rush in and be done with it? Cao Ang's behavior is unacceptable even to some smart people.

"I don't trust it." Cao Xiu, who had been silent, stood up and said, "They don't trust us, and I don't trust them. To put it bluntly, they rioted the day before yesterday. Even if Ziwen took the lead in promoting this matter, I don't believe them."

"To trust each other, someone must stand up first, and this person can only be us." Cao Ang sighed lightly, "And we have no choice, they still have a choice. Unless we are willing to stay here forever, otherwise, mutual trust is the only choice."

It's the end of the month, vote, vote quickly, it's over.
