Chapter 1784: Unavoidable

The Han army's northern Xinjiang camp has been unable to go south because of Sun Ce's group of young men, but it is not a problem to be delayed here. So after waiting for three more days, when Sun Ce and others still did not come back, Cao Cao and Liu Bei discussed

After a while, they headed south first with their scarred hearts.

Of course, before the army could break camp, Cao Cao and Liu Bei received the battle report from Sun Ce's messengers, and the reasons were explained in it, so Cao Cao and Liu Bei left 30,000 people and three months of food and grass for Sun Ce here.

"You guys, you actually asked me to help you write the rest of the policy in three days. Did you really do a good job? You really need to practice." Chen Xi looked at a group of similar people with dark circles under his eyes.

The guy who was as tired as a salted fish said nonsense.

It is said that Chen Xi did make people angry before, but considering that this was pure strength, there was nothing to say. However, when Chen Xi was chatting with Xun Yu, Cao Cao and Liu Bei came over and informed them to wait for three more days, regardless of Sun Ce's return.

If they don't come back, most of them will retreat south.

By the way, Liu Bei asked about the progress, and Chen Xi replied, Liu Bei meant that he should hurry up and finish the work in the next few days. God knows how much trouble there will be when he returns to Chang'an.

Naturally, the blame fell on Chen Xi, and Chen Xi considered that there might be a drama to limit the emperor's power when he arrived in Chang'an. In addition, such a drama would inevitably lead to a lot of troubles, so Chen Xi also

I obliged.

For the next three days, a group of people worked quickly and crazily overtime, and finally came up with something that was almost operational as a five-year plan before breaking camp.

"Okay, Zichuan, you're good enough." Guo Jia yawned, and his eyelids could hardly be opened. Hearing this, he buried his head in the horse's mane and yawned, "I actually did it in the last three days.

After making seventeen servings, I admire myself."

"I am indeed old." Jia Xu was also groggy, and his mind was filled with cattle, horses, sheep and other beasts.

Cheng Yu's face seemed to be obviously slack now, and his eyes were groggy. "Don't come to us old guys for this kind of thing in the future. Young people have to take responsibility."

Zhou Yu's situation can be a little better, but he is still very tired. "I am obviously the commander-in-chief, why should I engage in internal affairs? In the future, the military and political affairs must be separated. We must not give the opportunity to those who are ambitious and incompetent to cause destruction. We must separate the military and political affairs."

Separation."

Zhuge Liang could no longer maintain his appearance and demeanor at this time. He was also constantly feeling sleepy. He was so tired that he almost didn't get out of bed in the past three days.

"So, people, if you don't push yourself, you don't know how much potential you have." Chen Xi also buried his head in the horse's mane and said sleepily.

"Although I don't know how much potential there is, I know that in this situation, a wave of arrows is enough to kill a group of us." After all, Xu Shu is not very good at government affairs, so what he does is not too crazy, and he has some abilities.

His internal energy cultivation is perfect, and he doesn't seem to be dead now.

"Not to mention the rain of arrows at this time, even if a meteorite falls from the sky, the group of people outside can break it into pieces. It's really miserable without a straight road, and the carriage can't even sit on it." Chen Xi buried his head in the horse's mane and sighed.

He said with a tired face, "It's decided, we'll build a straight road from Youzhou to here."

"I'm afraid it would cost more than 100 million yuan to build a three-foot-wide straight road from Youzhou, and there are too few pedestrians here. If the temperature and maintenance are not adequate, the road may burst in winter." Mi Zhu could not maintain his gentle expression at this time.

The look of a gentleman.

"Ha, this is not a problem. As long as you build a road, someone will take advantage. If I build a road, if there are villages nearby, the villages will naturally gather on both sides of the road, especially at road intersections. Many villages like

Occupied." Chen Xi said nonchalantly.

"But the population in the north is sparse after all. Unlike the Central Plains, there may not be so many people." Mi Zhu argued sleepily. He was also one of Liu Bei's moneybags.

"Uncle, how are your injuries?" Xun You on the other side asked Xun Yu.

"It's nothing, I suddenly realized that your choice back then was quite good." Xun Yu nodded and said, "Mi Zizhong is indeed a talent."

"More than just talent, he has a deeper understanding of money, food and manpower than we do. It is not a fluke that the Mi family has become one of the five wealthy businessmen of his generation." Xun You looked back at Mi Zhu and said, "Although he is from a humble background,

But the talent is enough to parallel it.”

"Yes, talent is enough to go hand in hand." Xun Yu nodded.

"Zizhong has time for us to communicate. You are good at practical operations and I am good at theory. The two of us complement each other." Liu Ba also said tiredly. He and Mi Zhu had also communicated a lot during this period. They had a lot of money.

Both of them have their own understanding.

"That would be a great honor." Mi Zhu said with a smile, "Zichuan's theories are often hard to understand, and I can't waste his time too much."

Cao Cao and Liu Bei rode their horses in front, looking at the group of civil servants living in harmony behind them and the generals competing with each other, feeling helpless.

At this moment, both of them secretly cursed Liu Xie for his incompetence. If the emperor could show considerable intelligence, then based on the current situation of both parties, after returning to Chang'an, the world would be almost unified. Unfortunately, Liu Xie's stupid approach completely ruined the world.

Got this opportunity.

"Xuande, if the emperor cannot help you, what are you going to do?" Cao Cao suddenly sent a message to Liu Bei and asked. After hearing this, Liu Bei immediately turned to look at Cao Cao, and Cao Cao's eyes were extremely calm.

"The emperor is the emperor, and the Han Dynasty is the Han Dynasty. What I seek is peace for the Han Dynasty." Liu Bei looked at Cao Cao's extremely calm eyes, and was silent for a while to send the message to Cao Cao.

"The Emperor cannot be supported." Cao Cao said bitterly, "The Emperor of the Han cannot be supported!"

"Yes, it cannot be supported! But the Han Dynasty can be supported. If one of you and I is still alive, the Han Dynasty will still be the Han Dynasty." At this moment, Liu Bei suddenly possessed Chen Xi and said solemnly.

"One of you and I is still alive, and the Han Dynasty can support you." Cao Cao looked at Liu Bei with extremely solemn eyes. He understood what Liu Bei meant.

"How about we merge?" Liu Bei reached out and said to Cao Cao. He saw everything he wanted in Cao Cao's eyes. Cao Cao would not rebel against the Han Dynasty.

Cao Cao slowly stretched out his hand, and when he was almost touching Liu Bei's hand, he slapped Liu Bei's hand away and smiled bitterly, "Although we are both for the Han Dynasty, we must compete with each other. What's behind me?"

, and there are countless people behind you watching us."

"The winner is a prince, the loser is a bandit." Liu Bei said with distress.

"If the two of us are no longer competing against each other, our descendants will be competing against each other, and they will be even more fierce than they are now. At least for now, your and my will can be carried out, and the descendants who follow may not be able to suppress it." Cao Cao shook his head and said.

"Wait a minute, I asked Zichuan a question to see if I can solve it." Liu Bei understood what Cao Cao meant when he heard this, but then he remembered Chen Xi and immediately rode his horse in the direction of Chen Xi.

"Zichuan, don't sleep." When Liu Bei came over on horseback, a group of people here buried their heads in the horse's mane to rest.

"What's the matter, Mr. Xuande..." Chen Xi looked at Liu Bei with sleepy eyes.

"Please wake up, I dare not tell you." Liu Bei sent a message to Chen Xi and said.

Chen Xi slowly sat up, stretched out with his feet in the stirrups, and then rubbed his face fiercely with both hands.

"Okay, we can talk now." Chen Xi, who had recovered most of his energy at this time, looked at Liu Bei and asked.

"It's like this..." Liu Bei completely repeated what he had said to Cao Cao before, then added his own judgment, and then asked, "In this case, move it out to serve the country."

Can it be done in battle?”

Chen Xi frowned when he heard this. It was indeed beyond Chen Xi's expectation that Cao Cao had such an awareness. "I'm afraid it won't work. What Cao Sikong said is very reasonable. If he doesn't do anything, even if he is willing to go out and expand his territory,

What do those who follow him think?”

"And even if those who follow him have been fighting for the country while Cao Sikong is alive, they will definitely fight back after Cao Sikong dies. If there is no restraint at that time, it will be even worse than now." Chen Xi sighed and sent a message to

Liu Bei explained.

"We must let everyone on Sun Boxu and Cao Sikong know that they followed our orders because they lost, rather than following our orders for the sake of justice. There is a problem of the bottom line of psychological endurance." Chen Xi slowly said

Di explained to Liu Bei.

"So we can only do it once?" Liu Bei asked Chen Xi helplessly.

Although there was helplessness in Liu Bei's voice, his tone was still firm. Since he chose to follow the Yue Ancestors and make the world peaceful, then chaos and chaos and establishing rules with a butcher's knife would be an inevitable process. How could Liu Bei not be psychological about such a thing?

Prepare.

"Don't worry, there is still more than a year. I will give you a pretty good ending. Maybe if I am quick, the final result will be unexpected." Chen Xi smiled and sent the message to Liu Bei.

Chen Xi has not yet made the arrangements that will lead to a perfect ending, but the arrangements are much better than those during the battle between Yuan and Liu.

For the current Chen Xi, if he cannot arrange the outcome of the Central Plains Unification War by the spring of next year, he can still achieve a pretty good ending by relying on the chess pieces he has accumulated now.

"Then it all depends on Zichuan." Liu Bei was delighted when he heard this.

"Xuan De Gong should not be happy too early, and have a good exchange with Cao Sikong." Chen Xi smiled and said, the winner is a prince and the loser is a bandit, this kind of thing has to be experienced once, without this one.

After all, a great meaning is missing.

After Liu Bei rode away, Zhou Yu slowly rode over and looked at Chen Xi, "After arriving in Chang'an this time, I'm afraid we will be enemies instead of friends next time."

"Hahaha, it's nice to fight with you." Chen Xi said with emotion, "As for whether we are enemies or not friends next time, that will be a matter for next time."

"Marquis Chen is quite open-minded," Zhou Yu said with a smile.

"Well, I'm afraid I will be a real Marquis Chen when I go back this time." Chen Xi said with a smile. In fact, with Chen Xi's achievements over the years, it is safe to become a first-class Marquis. However, he has always been worried that he will not be promoted, so he has not done much.

Move Chen Xi’s title.

"Congratulations to Marquis Chen in advance." Zhou Yu said without any worry on his face, still smiling.

"I wonder what title I will give you this time?" Chen Xi said curiously.

"Anyang Xianghou, Shuhou, Pingluhou, these three are the most likely." Zhou Yu replied without thinking. It was obvious that this guy had not thought about this matter less.

"The Marquis of Shu is the most expensive. The Marquis of Anyang is the title of your ancestors. The Marquis of Pinglu is a bit of a treat. It's a title for others. Regarding your achievements this time, I'm kidding. I'll give you the Marquis of Pinglu. I'll give you the Marquis of Pinglu."

General Huang, what?" Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said.

From Chen Xi's point of view, Huang Zhong killed Hu Yanchu, the northern Xiongnu chanyu, with one arrow. As long as nothing unexpected happened, Pingluhou's position would basically be stable. Although he was only a Tinghou, Huang Zhong had basically been in the tenth position before that.

There is nothing to be said for being able to rise to the top of a second-level title with one arrow.

"So I estimate that there is a high probability that he will be the Marquis of Anyang Township." Zhou Yu smiled and said, "The possibility of being the Marquis of Shu is very small, but it is not impossible. If I can be granted the title of Marquis of Shu, I will make a profit."

"Haha, if you can make Shuhou, I can make Chen King!" Chen Xi said angrily, and then remembered what Zhou Yu did, "But speaking of which, as the commander-in-chief, you annihilated the Northern Huns.

, it is not impossible to be granted the title of Shuhou."

"The possibility is very small, because it is impossible for Bo Fu to make a Wuhou, so even if it is proposed for me to be Shuhou, it will be adjusted downward based on the actual situation." Zhou Yu said with a little pity. If his merits were said to be a Xianghou, it would be

It's a bit too lenient, and it's a bit generous to say he's a county magistrate.

However, according to the custom of the Han Dynasty, if you are an old minister, you will naturally be treated favorably if this happens. However, a young man like Zhou Yu, who is only twenty-two or three years old, will be treated lightly with a title, but the reward will be larger. However, for Zhou Yu, the reward is really

There is no shortage of.

"That's true." Chen Xi nodded. This alone blocked the possibility of Zhou Yu Shuhou. Although Sun Ce wouldn't mind such a trivial matter, Zhou Yu would not overstep it.

"Many people will be granted the title of Marquis this time. If we hurry up, Kong Ming will be able to set a new record for the Champion Marquis." Chen Xi said with a smile, "I'm afraid Xuande Gong will suggest that he be the Marquis of Yangdu Ting. The sixteen-year-old

Marquis, think about it, I was still living in Hulao Pass at the age of sixteen."

"I'm still at home when I'm sixteen?" Zhou Yu said unhappily, and then looked at Zhuge Liang unconsciously with a touch of envy. He really was a young prince, "I'm afraid this record will never be broken again."

In fact, there were many people congratulating Zhuge Liang during this period. In fact, after the battle in the north, the generals who participated in the war could basically estimate whether he was a Tinghou or a Guanneihou, and Zhuge Liang's meritorious service basically secured him the position of Tinghou.
