Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 912 Final Chapter
Boss Cao is worthy of being a generational hero and a typical opportunist.

Everyone knows that he is just being generous to others. Not to mention that the land of Shu in front of him has nothing to do with him. When the later master Liu Chan surrendered, he was not far from Sima usurping Wei.

At the same time, this is also Boss Cao's way of compromise, but with a little arrogance.

Compromise, but not completely.

At this moment, Boss Cao already knew that he could not stop Wu Liang and deal with the Huan army, but he was also worried that with Wu Liang's ability, after arriving in Shu, he would gradually form a force that would hinder him from completing his great cause. Liang is the king of Shu, so even if Wu Liang develops and grows in Shu in the future, he still maintains a subtle connection with the Cao family.

He could not want the land of Shu, and he did not want to be an enemy of Wu Liang, but in name Wu Liang was still the king of Shu he canonized, so the land of Shu was also Cao's Shu land in name.

Among them, there is naturally no shortage of thoughts about using Wu Liang to conquer Shu.

If the king of Shu does not have the land of Shu, is he still the king of Shu?

Besides.

There is no one in ancient and modern times who has the qualifications to crown a "fairy" as a king, and he, Boss Cao, did just that.

Because he could see that as long as he stopped forcing each other, Wu Liang had no intention of turning against him. Otherwise, with Wu Liang's current ability, he could be easily put to death, causing the entire Cao Ying to fall into disaster and disaster. In the panic, the Cao family was doomed.

But Wu Liang didn't do that, he was just protesting against him.

This shows that Wu Liang still has affection for him, and even if he didn't, he definitely didn't regard him as an endless enemy. Then in the face of his "generosity", no matter what Wu Liang was thinking at the moment, there was no reason to refuse him, and he was given to each other. This step does no harm to either party.

"Thank you, Mr. Ming."

Wu Liang saluted, and put the gold medal into his arms.

The incomprehensible decision made by Boss Cao in the end made Wu Liang feel extra respect. Such a Boss Cao is destined to achieve a great career in any era.

However, until now, Wu Liang still decided to use another dose of strong medicine to plant a seed in Boss Cao's heart, making himself a god that Boss Cao would never have to fear.

"Since Duke Ming is so generous, I should reciprocate."

Wu Liang smiled, and said again, "But at the moment, I really don't have anything to sell, so I'll send you the word Minggong, maybe it will be available soon."

"Which two words?"

Boss Cao asked curiously.

"The black nest."

Wu Liang said lightly.

"The black nest?"

Boss Cao couldn't help showing suspicion.

He naturally knew that Wuchao was a place name, but he didn't understand the meaning of the word Wu Liang sent him, and said that he would use it soon after.

But it's no wonder he, how can he know the future.

People in later generations will be familiar with these two words, and the "Battle of Wuchao" is an important turning point in the Battle of Guandu.

Although Boss Cao had been in a stalemate with Yuan Shao for a period of time while guarding Guandu, and Yuan Shao suffered some losses in the initial battle, Yuan Shao still had an absolute advantage in terms of military strength, food, military goods, and financial resources.

As a result, Boss Cao repeatedly thought of giving up Guandu and retreating to Xudu. Fortunately, Xun Yu used the example of the conflict between Chu and Han to dissuade him, so Boss Cao continued to stick to it.

Not long after this, Yuan Shao's grain transport army carried a large amount of food and grass and stayed overnight in Wuchao. At this time, Xu You, a counselor under Yuan Shao's tent, defected to Boss Cao, suggesting that Boss Cao should surprise Wuchao with light soldiers and burn his belongings.

Boss Cao knew that it would be difficult to win if there were no surprises, so he adopted Xu You's suggestion, attacked Wuchao at night and burned all his food, grass and luggage.

Since then, Yuan Shao's army has been greatly motivated, and the frontline generals have surrendered one after another. The internal divisions immediately divided and they were no longer able to compete with Boss Cao. In the end, Yuan Shao had to bring [-] cavalry to take back Jizhou.

It is also after this battle that Boss Cao is no longer invincible in the north and even in the world, and he has just achieved hegemony!

"It's Wuchao. Duke Ming doesn't need to ask any more questions, and I won't say too much. Duke Ming will understand the meaning of these two words when the time comes."

Wu Liang said calmly like an expert from outside the world.

He could already imagine Boss Cao's expression when he experienced this incident. From then on, he would only be in awe of Wu Liang, and whenever he encountered setbacks, he would think of his former son-in-law.

Wu Youcai is the eternal god in his heart...

While talking.

Wu Liang has secretly used the "Da Yan divination method" to calculate.

Now that the crisis of the Huanren Army has been completely resolved, the road to Duguangye will be smooth sailing, that is to say, Boss Cao has not played any tricks, and the several forces along the way will not pose any threat to the Huanren Army.

……

In front of thousands of Cao's troops, Wu Liang and Kuan's army gradually left.

Boss Cao didn't take his eyes back for a long time, until Wu Liang and the Huan army turned into a small black spot, and finally disappeared completely.

"Minggong, let's go back too."

Cheng Yu had already returned to Boss Cao's side, and said cautiously.

"Zhongde, do you think I did something stupid?"

Boss Cao still stared into the distance, but his voice became hoarse, as if he had grown older after experiencing this incident.

"The old minister dare not."

Cheng Yu hurriedly bowed his head to salute.

"I want to listen to my heart. No matter what you say at this moment, I forgive you."

Boss Cao said again.

"..."

Cheng Yu is also an old fox, how could he speak freely because Boss Cao said "Forgive me not guilty", he first pondered for a while, and finally said, "The old minister thinks that Ming Gong is not wrong, and Wu Youcai is not wrong. For Wu Youcai, perhaps it is the best ending... The two words that Wu Youcai and the veterans have said most these days are "opportunities". .”

"Chance..."

Boss Cao's gaze finally fluctuated.

After a long time, he withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Cao Pi, Cao Chun and Cheng Yu, and said seriously to them: "The order will be passed on, and today's affairs must not be spread outside. Cao Ying has never set up an army of soldiers. If anyone dares to privately Discussion, immediate execution!"

"promise!"

Several people responded quickly.

……

……

……

Two years later.

In the deep mountains upstream of Moshui (later Dadu River), a few Qiang people drove a few sheep along the stream.

Suddenly there is a peach blossom forest, hundreds of steps across the bank, there are no miscellaneous trees in the middle, the fragrant grass is delicious, and the fallen flowers are colorful.

The Qiang people moved forward again, and when the forest ran out of water sources, they found a canyon, which entered from the mouth.

Go back dozens of steps, suddenly see the light.The land is flat and open, and the houses are like houses. There are fertile fields, beautiful ponds, and mulberry and bamboo.The traffic in the rice paddies, chickens and dogs meet each other.Among them, there are various kinds of work, and the clothes of men and women are all like Qiang people.Yellow hair hangs down, and he is happy.

"Lieutenant Yang, you are back!"

"Is the trip going well this time?"

"Young master is playing chess with Zhuge Liang under the club tree..."

Seeing a few Qiang people, everyone in the field greeted them enthusiastically.

Yang Wanli took off the bamboo hat on his head, talked to everyone in the field one by one, and then led a few people across the path in the field, and walked quickly to a house in the north.

Not long after, I saw Wu Liang under a red bean tree that hadn't grown up around the house. It was Wu Liang and Zhuge Liang who were playing chess at the moment, but Zuo Ci and Yu Ji were standing behind them respectively, pointing and pointing without quality At this point, you can hear the two arguing from a long distance, and you can see the redness on their faces when you get close.

"came back."

Seeing Yang Wanli, Wu Liang gave up the stone bench to Yu Ji without hesitation, walked up to him and asked, "Is there any important news?"

This valley was transformed by Wu Liang by imitating the description in "Peach Blossom Spring". Although there are still some differences, and the peach forest outside is a little eye-catching, but in this kind of valley, it does not belong to the Han Dynasty, and it will not be in hundreds of years. There is no risk in land that will be included in the land of the Celestial Dynasty and will not be involved in the Central Plains war.

As for the local Qiang people, they had already dealt with each other when they first came here, and Wu Liang treated them with kindness and power, and they have already integrated into this unowned land smoothly.

"My lord, do you still remember Cao Zixiu?"

Yang Wanli said.

"What happened to Cao Ang?"

Wu Liang asked.

"He died in battle."

Yang Wanli said, "Shortly after Yuan Benchu ​​died of illness, two sons, Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan, were at odds. Cao Mengde took the opportunity to lead his army to attack Yecheng, and ordered Cao Zixiu to be the vanguard. How could we know that the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang who had a relationship with the young master at that time He was relying on Yuan Shang to guard the city of Ye, when Cao Zixiu was accidentally shot in the throat by Guan Yu during the battle, and died."

"..."

Wu Liang was speechless, why did he get involved with Liu Guanzhang again? When the Battle of Guandu happened in the official history, Liu Bei should have arrived in Runan, planning to form a relationship with Liu Biao.

And the last time I saw the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang in Jizhou, they already had the intention of leaving Yuan Shao, so why did they attach themselves to Yuan Shao's son Yuan Shang?

"Don't mention this matter in front of Ni'er, what about Cao Anmin?"

Wu Liang then asked immediately, Wu Liang didn't really care about Cao Ang's death, he cared more about Cao Ti's life and death.

"He was also seriously injured in this battle. I'm afraid he won't be able to fight again in the future, but he managed to save his life."

Yang Wanli replied.

"Then what happened to Liu, Guan and Zhang?"

Wu Liang asked again.

Yang Wanli said: "Not long after Cao Zixiu's death, the city of Ye was captured. Yuan Shang defected to Wuhuan overnight. Liu, Guan and Zhang did not follow, and led the remnants to Jingzhou to attach themselves to Liu Biao. It is said that they are currently stationed in Xinye."

"After such a big circle, without my influence, everything has once again moved closer to the official history..."

Wu Liang muttered to himself.

"There is one more thing."

Yang Wanli said again, "Young Master ordered me to go to the northwest valley of Guanghan City to search for ancient relics. Although I haven't found any ancient relics yet, I have discovered a strange thing."

"There is a river called 'Jian Shui'. The local fishermen said that there is a man-eating monster called a water monkey in the river. Every year, many fishermen are dragged into the water by the water monkey. They cannot see people alive or dead. It cannot be cured. .”

"I listened carefully and found that the situation they described was very similar to what we encountered at the mouth of the Yellow River..."
