Cao Pi apparently wanted to kick Cao Chong away, although Cao Pi did not name him.
But all those present were smart people, and no one could see Cao Pi's careful thinking.
Cao Cao even directly asked Cao Chong what he meant, making it clear that Cao Chong would decide by himself, and he didn't want to refuse directly.
Cao Pi's face changed slightly when he heard this, but he did not expect that Cao Cao would give the choice to Cao Chong.
I thought that I could directly kick Cao Chong to Jiangdong like last time, but now it seems that it must be delusional, and Cao Chong will definitely not go to Jingnan at this time.
"Okay."
As Cao Chong's words fell, everyone couldn't help but be stunned.
From Cao Cao, down to his teammates such as Guo Jia and Zhang Liao, or enemies such as Cao Pi and Sima Yi, no one expected that Cao Chong would agree.
"Lin'er, the head-on duel will begin soon, don't you participate?" Cao Cao couldn't help but ask.
Cao Cao liked Cao Chong the most, especially his son was smart.
At present, in Cao Cao's heart, he was not inferior to the five great strategists at all, and even heavier than the five great strategists.
Because Cao Chong called him father, and the five great strategists would not, Cao Cao naturally liked Cao Chong the most to help him with advice.
Cao Chong didn't seem to understand Cao Cao's prompt, and said to himself: "The second brother's words are reasonable, and the child also feels that Jingnan's injustice is a trouble, so he just took the tiger and leopard to ride over and clean up the troubles for Awen." "
Cao Cao's heart warmed when he heard this, "Lin'er is pure and filial!" "
In Cao Cao's view, it was impossible for Cao Chong not to see Cao Pi's intentions.
Knowing that Cao Pi wanted to break away and keep him away from the main battlefield, Cao Chong still insisted on going to Jingnan.
What does this mean?
This shows that Cao Chong did not only care about fighting, but sincerely relieved his father's worries.
It's for the sake of the big picture, and I don't want to be an infighting at this key.
After Cao Cao figured it out, he was moved, but he was still the most intimate of his son.
On the other hand, Cao Pi was still only concerned about his own little calculations at this time.
The more Cao Cao thought about it, the more angry he became, and he looked at Cao Pi and scolded: "Mess with things!" You are not as sensible as your brother! Bai looks so old! "
"Know the intrigue every day! No focus on getting down to business, huh! "
Cao Pi's face turned green when he heard this, and he was secretly happy that Cao Chong had left.
This slashing head covered his face with a stinky scolding, especially in front of the group of ministers, his face was lost.
"Dispersed." Cao Cao got up with a black face, and before leaving, he did not forget to scold: "Looking at the few of you, I am not in a good mood." "
When he looked at Cao Chong again, he immediately changed into an old father's smile.
"Lin'er sent Jiangdong to work hard, go back and rest quickly, don't get tired."
"Eh." Cao Chong smiled and agreed, "So is Awen." "
"Haha, okay, listen to Lin'er."
Seeing that Aiko cared about himself, Cao Cao was in a good mood and walked away with his back to his back.
Cao Chong whistled and left, and the group of ministers immediately dispersed, leaving only Cao Pi and a few people dejected.
It seemed that Cao Chong had succeeded, but in fact he had lost badly.
"Cao Chong promised to be so happy 983, will there be fraud?"
Seeing that there was no one in the hall, Sima Yi said in a low voice.
"Fraudulent? What's the scam? Cao Zhang said angrily: "It's all gone to Jingnan, what else?" "
"Don't leave, I'm worried that Cao Chong will stay and make meritorious contributions."
"Branch, and worried that Cao Chong is fraudulent."
"How the hell is that good?" Cao Zhen looked depressed and looked at Sima Yi and questioned.
"This..." Sima Yi didn't know how to explain it.
The main Cao Chong put too much pressure on them, and no matter what choice Cao Chong made, Sima Yi would think about it out of caution.
"Okay, stop there." Cao Pi said in a deep voice: "Since our purpose has been achieved, then don't talk about this matter anymore, lest it reach my father's ears, and a few of us will be scolded again." "
The other side.
Cao Chong returned to his residence, and when he entered the door, he saw Da Qiao chatting with Gan and Mi.
"Gongzi is back." The second daughter immediately stood up to greet each other.
Seeing this, Da Qiao hesitated, so he had to get up as well.
There was a stove burning in the house, and Gan stepped forward to remove Cao Chong's thick coat.
"Let's go talk later, there will be guests coming over in a while." Cao Chong ordered.
"Oh." The three women retired together.
Cao Chong sat on the main throne, and a moment later, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Guo Jia, plus Cao Chun, came to Cao Chong's side one after another.
"Cangshu, what do you think?" Cao Chun was the first to speak, "The second elder is clearly planning to support you, and does not want you to make meritorious contributions in the main battlefield, why did you really agree to come down?" "
Everyone knew very well that with Cao Chong's wisdom from childhood to adulthood, it was impossible not to see it.
"Main battlefield?" Cao Chong couldn't help but laugh and said, "How many counties are there in Jiangdong?" "
"Four." Cao Chun blurted out.
"How many counties are there in Jingnan?"
"Four...," Cao Chun said, stunned, "Huh? It's all four counties. "
"yes." Cao Chong said with a smile: "Therefore, the territory is almost the same size, and if we take the four counties of Jingnan, the military merit will not necessarily be less than that of the other side." "
"Just imagine, so many people in the four counties of Jiangdong can divide it, how much military merit can be evenly distributed?"
"On the other hand, looking at the four counties of Jingnan, let's ride the tiger and leopard directly and swallow it alone, which is more cost-effective?"
"Hey!" Cao Chun slapped his thigh, "Sure enough, you kid is the most shrewd, I'll just say, how can Cangshu suffer a loss!" "
Zhang Liao and Xu Huang, who were originally puzzled, couldn't help but realize when they heard this.
Except for a few present, all the remaining generals wanted to go to the main battlefield to make meritorious contributions.
Instead of grabbing Jiangdong's military merit with so many generals, it is better to be steady, eat the four counties of Jingnan, and the harvest is not necessarily better than on the main battlefield.
The cake of the main battlefield is indeed big, but there are also many people.
Although Jingnan does not have as many military achievements as Jiangdong, just these few people, the tiger and leopard ride directly swallow alone.
After some explanation, several people were relieved, and the three military generals left one after another, leaving only Guo Jia.
"Cangshu, it's good to fool the three of them, I'm not good at fooling." Guo Jia said with a smile.
"Naturally." Cao Chong smiled dumbly, "But it's not a fool, the three generals equally share the military merits of Jingnan, which is indeed more cost-effective than over there." "
"But you're not worth it." Guo Jia hit the nail on the head, "Do you want to sit and watch the second prince make a big splash in the main battlefield?" "
"Although the territory of Jingnan and Jiangdong is the same, the strength of the troops on both sides is different, what about the 50,000 troops of Sun Liu's family, how many troops does Jingnan have?"
"Tell me, why would you rather go to Jingnan than mix with the main battlefield?"
"Because you can't win." Cao Chong spread his hand.
"Can't win?" Guo Jia frowned, "Detailed." "
"There's nothing to go into detail." Cao Chong said helplessly: "Without the water army, I don't even know how to win!" "
"Just the water army trained by the ban, even the fishermen in Jiangdong are not on it, it must be soft-footed shrimp when it really fights, what to win?"
"Water warfare is different from land warfare, and the impact of force superiority on the battle situation is not as great as imagined."
"So..." Guo Jia suddenly realized, "You feel that you can't win head-on, so you just went to eat Jingnan's military merits." "
"In the end, Cao Pi got nothing, and you fought a lot."
"It makes sense." Guo Jia said with a smile: "That's just right, it's better for me to join the army for you and follow you to Jingnan." "
"Nope." Cao Chong shook his head and refused.
"What? Still can't see me? Guo Jia scolded with a smile: "With people facing forward, not using people facing back, what's wrong with dividing me some military merits?" "
"It's not." Cao Chong was very serious, "You have to stay in the front, or you will lose." "
"Defeated?"
"Well, it's a big defeat, a fiasco." Cao Chong said in a deep voice: "Last time Cao Pi sent 20,000 heads, I couldn't interfere at that time, and I was powerless to stop it. "
"Since I am here this time, naturally I can't watch the army fail miserably."
"Wouldn't you?" Guo Jia was a little unbelievable, "Even if you can't win, you won't lose miserably." "
"Won't?" Cao Chong reminded: "If you think about it, what has the army become arrogant? There are also Wen Chen martial generals, including my Awen, who are arrogant one by one. "
"It seems that Liu Bei, Sun Quan and others are all smelly fish and rotten shrimp, as long as they go down the river, they can be captured in one fell swoop, and they don't put the enemy in their eyes at all."
"How can you win with such arrogance?"
Cao Ying has problems with his mentality up and down, but Cao Chong can't solve it, because this pride cannot be reversed.
The army began with the Battle of Guandu, won for eight years in a row, and fought victorious battles for eight years. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) )
After Jingzhou surrendered without a fight, this complacency was pushed to the peak.
Cao Chong couldn't reverse it at all, and if he said more, he had a feeling that he would destroy his own prestige.
This kind of emotion is not a problem that can be solved in a few words, or Cao Chong's reminder.
Guo Jia thought about it carefully when he heard this, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.
In particular, he was also a member of the "arrogant army", and if it weren't for Cao Chong's words, he wouldn't have known it at all.
"Isn't that Cangshu more supposed to stay on the front." Guo Jia couldn't help but ask.
"I'm still seasick, why stay on the front?" Cao Chong said angrily: "Just stabilize the front, I'll write you a guide later, there shouldn't be any big problems." "
"Jingnan's strength is not strong, I can quickly sweep with the tiger and leopard ride, and when I quickly solve Jingnan, I will naturally rush to the frontal battlefield."
The reason why Cao Chong agreed to go to Jingnan was because Jingnan had what Cao Chong wanted.
And Cao Chong had the confidence to quickly solve Jingnan, and then quickly rush to the frontal battlefield, which was equivalent to not delaying at both ends.
(Chad) The Sun Liu Alliance is not so easy to defeat, and Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang are not given for nothing.
Since Cao Pi had the intention to send military merit to himself, Cao Chong naturally laughed happily.
After taking Jingnan, it was not too late to go to the main battlefield, and when the time came, he would snatch the military merit with Cao Pi, so that Cao Pi would steal the chicken and not lose the rice, and lift a stone to shoot himself in the foot.
"I'll just say it!" Guo Jia suddenly realized, "You kid is really greedy, he actually wants to eat at both ends, and neither side plans to let go." "
"Cao Pi thinks he has succeeded, and then he will be dumbfounded." Cao Chong was triumphant, "Fight with me, and tie him together for nothing." "
"Well, the front will be handed over to me to be responsible, and before you return, you will definitely not let the lord fail miserably." Guo Jia said again: "But what is the strategy you said?" "
"You can think of it as a whole book of tricks." Cao Chong said proudly.
"You can anticipate what happens before the fight starts?" Guo Jia was surprised: "Don't be talking about it, right?" "
"Believe it or not, but you have to bring it with you."
"Okay, I'd rather see how good your kid is." Guo Jia was unconvinced.
"By the way, how about things that you checked?" Cao Chong diverted the topic and asked.
"It has been checked and controlled." Guo Jia immediately said: "There is a tuntian system, as long as it is on our territory, there is no one who cannot be found." "
"I know you're going to ask about it, it's all over here." Guo Jia said and took out a letter from his arms.
"Big brother, go and bring that Chen Zhi to me." Cao Chong shouted outside.
"Oh."
"Come on, I'll go first." Guo Jiashi Shiran got up, "Hurry up and write the strategy, but I want to see what Cangshu has to say." "
"I'll send it to you tomorrow morning, just don't drop your jaw when the time comes."
"Hmph~" Guo Jia was very disdainful.
He is also a wise man, and he does not believe that Cao Chong can write any Laoshizi strategy, but he mostly looks at jokes.
Cao Chong didn't argue with Guo Jia either, watching this guy leave.
At first, it was a life-saving grace, and later it was a confidant and mutual appreciation.
The relationship has long been familiar, and it has long been no longer necessary to be a formality.
Not long after, Xu Yi and Dian Man came in with Chen Zhi.
One stood behind Chen Zhi to watch over, and the other stood behind Cao Chong to guard.
After all, he was a martial general, and the two were also afraid that Chen would lose his heart and go crazy and hurt Cao Chong.
"After so many days, have you thought about it? Would you like to work for me? Cao Chong asked straight to the point.
"Dreaming!" Chen Zhi was very spineless, "Let the king treat me like a mountain, Chen Mou is definitely not a person who betrays the Lord, I think you should die as soon as possible!" "
On the day of the hostage exchange, he learned from Guan Yu's mouth that Liu Bei did not plan to change his son, but wanted to change him back.
Chen Zhi made up his mind that he would rather die unyielding, and would never surrender, let alone fail Liu Bei.
"After such a long time, do you guess I found your family?" Cao Chong smiled and unfolded the letter that Guo Jia gave just now, and it was Chen Zhide's family information on it.
In Chen Zhi's terrified gaze, Cao Chong said to himself:
"Old mother Xu, seven out of seventy this year."
"The eldest brother Chen Bozhi, his wife Li Shi, has a son and a daughter."
"Second brother Chen Zhongzhi, wife Wang Shi, have two sons."
"The fourth brother Chen Jizhi, his wife Chen Shi, has a daughter."
"Uncle and aunt... Uncle and aunt..."
Not only Chen Zhi's family, but even the collateral families have found out clearly.
After Cao Chong finished reading, he looked at Chen Zhi and asked, "You have been away from home for so many years, and you have not fulfilled your filial piety, can it be because of you alone, so many relatives have been affected?" How can I endure it! "
"Your mother has always been looking forward to your return, sitting at the entrance of the village every day and looking at you..."
"Stop! Shut up! Stop!! Chen Zhi roared madly, his face showing endless remorse.
When he was young, he was ambitious to make a career, and he left home alone as soon as his head was hot, and he voted for a master who could run the most.
Chen Zhi was a native of Runan, Yuzhou, and Liu Bei briefly served as the Assassin of Yuzhou.
In fact, it was in name, but it happened to be known by Chen Zhi, so he went to Liu Bei.
At that time, Liu Bei was also quite down, so he brought Chen Zhi, who was also a young man.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed. Can Chen Zhi not want to be home?
In fact, even Chen Zhi did not expect that Liu Bei, the assassin of Yuzhou, would run around the South China Sea and North in the sky, and he would never have a chance to go home.
"They're not having a good time." Cao Chong spoke again.
It is strange that it can be better than that, under the tuntian system, the state of the people is all alive, or they can't die, but thinking about how good they are is all nonsense.
"You nod your head, and they can go to Yecheng to enjoy the blessing, how?" Cao Chong straightened up and leaned closer, "Don't you want them to enjoy happiness?" After so many years away from home, don't you want to compensate your family? "
"I know that loyalty and filial piety are difficult to have both, do you choose loyalty? Or choose filial piety? "
Cao Chong did not directly threaten, but clearly told Chen Zhi that his entire family, and even the entire family, was under control.
More than a threat.
Cao Chong was not worried about loyalty, and his own head was tied to the head of Chen Zhi's family.
Even if Chen Zhi hated Cao Chong to the bone, he would definitely not make a move against Cao Chong.
Moreover, Cao Chong would not let Chen Zhi serve as a personal guard, just use it as a martial general.
"I have a condition..."
After a long silence, Chen Zhi finally gave in.
"Talk."
"I will not be an enemy of the Lord." Chen Zhi stared at Cao Chong deadly, "This is my bottom line. "
"Okay." Cao Chong nodded and agreed, "In the future, I will not let you deal with Liu Bei and all the forces under his command. "
"Good." Chen Zhi nodded slowly, "Then I will work for you." "
It's effectiveness, not allegiance.
"But you also remember well, help me deal with other people when snacking, don't think about not contributing." Cao Chong instructed, "If there is slack..."
"Since you have promised to work for you, you can rest assured." Chen assured immediately.
Cao Chong agreed to his conditions and told him not to deal with Liu Bei, but he still gained Chen Zhi's favorable feelings.
"Good." Cao Chong nodded in satisfaction, "You can go." "
"Where to?" Chen Zhi subconsciously asked.
"Come home and visit, and then come back to work for me." Cao Chong waved his hand to signal Chen Zhi to leave.
Chen Zhi's face was full of shock, and finally slowly retreated.
"Gongzi, why did you let him leave like this?" Xu Yi was puzzled: "The big war is imminent, this guy is not weak. "
"Let him go home first, and experience the preciousness of family affection, before I can use him at ease."
