Chapter 6070 It doesn’t matter whether he lives or lives
"Your way of thinking is wrong." Mao Jie shook his head and said, "What do you think is the goal of Ardashir taking advantage of the chaos to attack Kandahar?"
"Kandahar?" Cao Ang asked tentatively.
"No, it is the effective force of the Han Dynasty." Chen Qun sighed and said, "Whether it is Kandahar or Kabul, they are both easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even if Ardashir is a famous general, it is very difficult to capture Kandahar."
"So don't think about attacking next, just defend and defend." Xun Yu also warned, waiting for Aldashir to send troops and having a big war with it will indeed solve the internal problems to a great extent. No matter whether he wins the battle or not,
It can be solved even if you lose the fight, but you can't fight like this.
"The core of Ardashir's current strategy is not to expand, but to stand firm. Although Kabul is not big, it is enough for Ardashir's current manpower." Xun You looked at the beams and said, "This is what we attacked before.
Ardashir, the reason why the opponent is so defensive."
"As for Ardashir, as long as we are unable to attack, he will be able to achieve the best development. Delaying time will not do any harm to the current Ardashir." Chen Qun and others explained the current situation to Cao Ang one by one.
situation.
"But be careful and defend to the death. It will hurt morale too much. The enemy has already attacked our city. If we don't attack, there will be problems." Cao Ang asked with a frown.
"Yes, but before we had a problem, the other party had already run out of food and grass. It is winter and there is no way to transport food and grass by water." Xun Yu explained casually.
Cao Ang nodded when he heard this, expressing his understanding. He no longer thought about the plan to suppress the internal invasion, and instead began to discuss with this group of people how to summon these centurions, how to communicate effectively, etc. After all, this is the biggest crisis at present.
matter.
On the other side, due to the time difference, when Cao Cao arrived in Chang'an, it was already dawn in Chang'an. On the other side, Chen Xi has been living extremely happily recently. He either eats or holds banquets every day. He received the news that Cao Cao and others arrived at the Government Affairs Office.
At that time, Chen Xi was still resting at Chen Lan's place.
"Husband, husband, wake up quickly." Chen Lan shook Chen Xi.
Chen Xi opened his tired eyes. Yesterday, he and a group of people ate until the last quarter of the moon came out. This was the last quarter of the moon, and it was already late at night.
"Let me sleep for another hour. I won't eat breakfast." Chen Xi opened his eyes for a moment, then closed them again, turned over and started to roll up the quilt.
"Husband, Cao Sikong, Military Advisor Cheng, and the two Generals Xiahou have arrived at the Government Affairs Office. Li Yushi informed you that something big has happened and asked you to come over quickly." Chen Lan smiled and shook Chen Xi's back.
It was clear that Chen Xi could sleep until noon if he just left it alone, but something really happened.
"Ah, is Lao Cao here to thank me? Tell him that you're welcome." Chen Xi replied casually, "I'll sleep for a while, and nothing will happen. If something does happen, Wenru won't find someone to notify me, but
He will come to me."
"Okay then." Chen Lan thought for a while and said nothing because she always trusted her husband's judgment.
On the other side, Chen Gong, who was urgently notified, was numb at this time. What's going on? What did you do? Oh, Cao Cao is still alive, so it's okay.
"Gongtai." Cao Cao saw Chen Gong, and with the support of the Xiahou brothers, he held his hands towards Chen Gong half-deadly, with little air coming in and a lot of air coming out.
"What's going on?" Chen Gong looked at Cheng Yu and asked curiously, "Why haven't we seen each other for a few days? I feel like I am more than ten years older. What special techniques did you use? This is so exciting that people are alive
That’s fine.”
Chen Gong was relieved when he found out that Cao Cao was not dead. As long as he was not dead and everyone was in Chang'an, it would be absolutely fine. Therefore, Chen Gong was somewhat happy.
Cheng Yu was obviously a little depressed at this time, and recounted what happened in Kandahar to Chen Gong in detail. Chen Gong was not surprised when he heard the behavior of the family, and had no doubts when he heard Cao Cao's actions.
Chen Gong seems to be operating normally.
After all, no matter what the situation of the major aristocratic families, Chen Gong has a clear conscience, let alone what kind of character Cao Cao is, he will be indiscriminate if he is in charge.
"It's not like this. I feel like Ah Man has lost the battle." Chen Gong asked strangely, "It's not like this. He knows Lao Cao very well and his nerves are extremely strong. This
You can't defeat Lao Cao with just a few things. Besides, Chen Xun can pass the steps. Although he can't understand it, Chen Gong generally understands what the operation is like.
Cheng Yu told Chen Gong the rest of the story in a low voice, and Chen Gong's expression became unnatural. As a result, Chen Gong didn't know what to say. It was somewhat self-inflicted and meant that he could not survive.
.
"Sikong became like this after that, and on the way back to the Central Plains, he felt that he had become a lot slower." Cheng Yu said with some despair. He really had not considered the existence of centurions. In fact, even Chen Gong
I had never thought of such a lifeline before.
"What's going on with Zichuan?" Li You on the other side counted the time and said with some dissatisfaction, "It's too slow today. Maybe he's not awake yet. I'll call him. Kong Ming, please stay here."
Zhuge Liang glanced at Li You, then at Cao Cao, and then nodded.
Li You rushed directly to Chen Xi's house. It would be impossible if Chen Xi didn't come out this time.
"What happened? Could it be that Cao Sikong is gone?" Even though Chen Xi had washed his face, he was still a little sleepy. When he came out to see Li You, he was still rubbing his eyes from time to time.
"Still alive." Li You said angrily.
"Then why are you looking for me? It's not that Cao Sikong died and Kong Ming needs to take over." Chen Xi said tiredly, "I was drinking with Zijian and the others in the middle of the night yesterday. I'm so tired that I want to die today. Let me go back to sleep, Cao Sikong.
If you're not dead, there's nothing wrong with it. You can just handle it yourself. Kong Ming can now take over most of my functions."
"Replacing most of your functions?" Li You said with a sneer, "Explain to me, why did you go on a blind date with the centurion during Yuan Fengnian?"
"Ah, I forgot, maybe I'm looking for a wife for the elite centurions. I think it's not easy for them to be singles, so be a matchmaker." Chen Xi stretched and said with a light expression.
No matter how tired he is, after getting up from bed, washing his face, and blowing the cold air outside, he should be at least 90% awake. Chen Xi is in such a state now. Of course, he will return to the warm nest and fall asleep again.
This is really normal.
"I believed your nonsense." Li You said with a sneer, not bothering to investigate whether Chen Xi's doing this was aimed at him.
That's right, this thing was not prepared for Cao Cao, but actually for Li You, but who asked Li You, a guy like Li You who specializes in exterminating a family, to have a very complete edict every time he destroyed a family, and basically read it out, and then
Just starting to kill, even if you really want to say it, it doesn't count as annihilation.
There are actually very few families that Li You has actually destroyed. After all, it is impossible for a family to be a disaster. Most of the time, Li You destroys certain families that are the most evil. Of course, if it were Chen Xi, the matter of implicating several families would be just that.
Only in the case of the Yang family did Chen Xi do it. Other times, after killing the culprit, Chen Xi let him go.
So in comparison, Chen Xi's behavior is probably completely compliant, Li You's behavior is at least reasonable, and Cao Cao's behavior is somewhat unjustifiable.
And being justified is very meaningful in many cases, especially when your power is not absolutely dominant, righteousness is very important.
"What's wrong? Why are you bringing this up all of a sudden?" Chen Xi asked strangely.
"I didn't get the thing you prepared for me, but Cao Mengde got it." Li You said with a sneer. Chen Xi was stunned when he heard this. He didn't realize what Li You was talking about, and even turned a few steps away.
He was walking around with a jerk, and his hair exploded!
"Fuck, is Cao Ah'an guilty of something wrong?" Chen Xi immediately grabbed Li You and asked with a look of horror, "I didn't even think that someone could activate such a thing!"
"This is the end of the world. Could it be that Cao Sikong is the only one who escaped? The others were hacked to death?" Chen Xi asked in a panic, "This is a big loss!"
"Not yet, it just hit a dead end, and then someone under his command reacted and stopped it, but it also killed more than 20 people, the kind that really wiped out the whole family." Li You said very carefully.
"Stop looking for me, let him figure it out. I can't help it. I just took out the insurance back then and never thought that anyone would actually get hurt." Chen Xi's whole body was numb. What is happening to you?
Do you think that I, Chen Xi, am an omnipotent person? I can't handle this thing. I can love whoever, whoever!
After saying that, Chen Xi turned around and prepared to go back to sleep. The centurions, who were the backbone of the military force, rebelled. What can I do? I can only watch you die. It’s none of my business. I’m not familiar with Cao Cao, so there’s nothing to do.
Massacre, no matter what I can do, I can't save it.
"He destroyed all the families with bigger problems." Li You didn't say anything good for Cao Cao, but he was just out of curiosity to see if there was a solution to this problem.
"It's useless. If there is a problem, look for the problem. If you kill the culprit, it will be over. If you have to destroy the family, if you can touch the line, there will be backlash. It's useless. Things will definitely not be as simple as you said. If there are not many
A centurion, with the character of Cao Ahao, just kill him to solve the problem." Chen Xi sneered and said, he was quite clear about Cao Cao's character, Wei Wu didn't do human affairs!
"So it must be at least a hundred, and I don't think I can handle even a hundred." Chen Xi said with a sneer, "If it really only had a hundred, Cao A would dare to secretly execute these people, unless the situation has gone out of control to a certain extent, there is no way
This will only happen if you redeem yourself."
In fact, Liu Xian's conclusion to Cao Cao at that time was three hundred, and Chen Qun's statement, Cao Cao could only think of it as a relief. Cao Cao himself knew something about it, so he took the middle value, two hundred, but there was still no way to solve it without two hundred.
rhythm?
If there are really less than a hundred people, Cao Cao can solve it if he is determined.
Centurion-level veterans are indeed powerful, but if Cao Cao secretly gathered more than a hundred centurions, and then mobilized the power of the Cao family and Xiahou family to eliminate them directly without leaking the news, it would still be no problem.
Only when the number really reaches a certain level and their elimination will not only not solve the problem, but also cause more problems, will Cao Cao compromise.
The current situation is obviously a compromise by Cao Cao. Chen Xi estimates that at least two to three hundred centurions are needed, and the circle of two to three hundred centurions is enough to cover 70% of Cao Cao's main force.
This is no longer a question of whether Cao Cao can secretly execute these people, but a question of whether the other party can execute Cao Cao conveniently when Cao Cao secretly executes these people.
After all, it is impossible for Cao Cao to dispatch troops to execute these people without any rumors, especially for these people who are in the army themselves. It is impossible for Cao Cao to find a main force of three or four thousand people who will not pass the news to these people at all.
Even if you call in the Tiger Guards, the news will inevitably be leaked.
And once the news leaks out, let alone Cao Cao, the Cao family and the Xiahou family will definitely not have a living person. After all, the basis for mobilizing the army is never the legion commander, but the grassroots generals. Even Han Xin, without
Even with the centurion's cooperation, there was no way to command.
The centurion link may not seem important, but it is the connecting point between the upper and lower levels.
Because for a legion, the centurion needs to know as many superiors and peers as there are subordinates he has to manage. This level is a node.
"Let Cao Ahao solve it by himself. If he can solve this matter smoothly, he will continue to be Cao Sikong, the commander-in-chief in the direction of Kandahar. If he can't solve it, there is no need to worry about it." Chen Xi said very coldly, "When I hung up the lifeline,
, I never thought anyone would step on this thing!”
"Are you sure you're not targeting me?" Li You suddenly said.
"Will you exterminate families on a large scale?" Chen Xi said casually.
"I have this idea, but it hasn't been implemented yet." Li You said seriously. It can be said that after constant testing, due to the current outrageous situation, he had a showdown with Chen Xi.
"Then I suggest you stop thinking about it." Chen Xi said angrily, "Human heads are not leeks. They can grow back after being cut. The implication is acceptable, but can you stop being implicated indefinitely? Cao A'man can do it.
I am convinced that the whole family will be wiped out."
Last time about Lu Su's incident, Chen Xi was also very angry with all the major families. Cao Cao was digging for their roots, and Chen Xi was also digging for their roots. But when Chen Xi dealt with the major families, there was almost no involvement. Even those who committed the crime deserve to die, so do I.
I don't want to talk to you.
If we really do what Cao Cao does, tens of thousands of people will have to go down. What a human being!
"Hey." Li You sighed, finally giving up the idea of fighting to the death and meeting the aristocratic family.
In Chen Xi's opinion, this kind of thing is firstly unnecessary and secondly worthless, but Li You has remained unchanged for more than ten years, so Chen Xi has no choice but to do so.
