Chapter 1,112 The Emperors Uncle Has No Money
"Wonderful talent! Wuwuwuwu~!"
Cao Cao lay on the table and cried bitterly. As he cried, he slapped the table in front of him hard, making a loud noise.
Guo Jia, Cao Hong, Yu Jin, Le Jin and others stood below, looking at the grief-stricken Cao Cao, their hearts filled with bitterness.
Especially Cao Hong, who was usually close to Xia Houyuan, and when he heard that Xia Houyuan was killed, he was probably no less sad than Cao Cao.
When I was young, I saw Cao Cao raising his head. His face was full of tears, his eyes were red, the whites of his eyes were bloodshot, and his expression was faintly ferocious.
"The Cao family and the Xiahou family are both my relatives, and my son Xiaoxiao and Miaocai are all my dear relatives. Killing them by Liu Qi and Liu Bei is like breaking two of my arms. I swear to destroy them... Wen Ze!"
"exist!"
"Order your troops immediately. I will gather the whole army tomorrow to fight Liu Qi!"
"Wait a minute!"
Guo Jia hurriedly left work and stopped Yu Jin: "Wait a minute, Wen!"
Then, Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao and said: "General Jiazhi is feeling miserable at the moment and is eager to avenge the two generals. But now Liu Qi has penetrated into the hinterland of Yuzhou, and the depth of the food road in the rear of our army has been exposed to the eyes of the southern thieves.
, as long as Liu Qi wants to, he can send troops to investigate and cut off our food routes at any time. Moreover, the momentum of the three armies is low at the moment. If we confront Liu Qi head-on, our army will be defeated!"
Le Jin said: "Mr. Guo, Le Mou has always respected you, but today you have said something about others' ambitions. Please forgive me for not agreeing with Le Mou."
Guo Jia did not get angry with Le Jin, but said patiently: "Wen Qian, Guo is by no means a person who avoids fighting. But now that we have a way to defeat Liu Qi, there is no need to fight Liu Qi head-on. It is really not worth the gain."
After saying that, Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao again and said anxiously: "General, news has come from Mei Qian and Lei Xu. They have received Lu Su's invitation and have prepared a bandit army to march towards Runan in the near future.
We are about to arrive, and as long as we keep in touch with the other party secretly and cooperate internally and externally, we will be able to surprise him and cover up his unpreparedness, and capture Liu Qi in one fell swoop!"
Cao Cao wiped his face with the towel on the table, then took a deep breath and said, "Then in Fengxiao's opinion, what should Cao do now?"
"If a general wants to succeed, he only needs to do two things."
"explain!"
"The reason why Lei Xu and Mei Qian joined us instead of Liu Qi was because they had an old grudge with Yuan Shu and were afraid of retaliation. Therefore, these two people did not have the same affection for the general. Therefore, the general must promise a high position and huge profits.
, in order to win the hearts of these two people."
Cao Cao sneered and said: "No problem, whether it's gold, silver or other wealth, Cao will be willing to give it to them as much as they want. If things get done later, Cao will definitely report to the emperor and grant them the title of middle man."
The position of general."
Guo Jia knew Cao Cao. Cao Cao was very disgusted with thieves like Lei Xu and Mei Gan who had no bottom line. He was afraid that after doing this, Cao Cao would not spare the lives of Mei Gan and Lei Xu.
I'm afraid the current promises are all nonsense.
But since Cao Cao dares to promise, it is much better than not promising.
"Also, the general needs to engage in several battles with Liu Qi, and then retreat north after being defeated, leading Liu Qi's troops northward to extend the battle line. Only then can the two thieves be behind Liu Qi and cooperate with our army!"
Cao Cao thought carefully for a moment, and then said: "That's fine, Wen Ze, I'll leave this matter to you. When fighting Liu Qi, you must be careful not to make the soldiers too eager to fight, otherwise it won't be easy and only a few battles will be defeated.
"
Yu Jin couldn't help but smile bitterly after hearing this.
To be honest, Cao Jun really has no fighting spirit at the moment, so why would he want to fight? It would be good to have fighting spirit.
"Here!"
Looking at Yu Jin who turned around and walked out, Cao Cao suddenly stood up again, pulled out the sword on the shelf behind him, and then swung it hard and chopped off the entire corner of the table.
"Liu Qi, Liu Bei!" Cao Cao shouted angrily: "Cao will definitely cut you into pieces!"
…
At this time, in the camp of Cao Jun, Liu Qi was celebrating the victory of Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, Zhou Yu, Li Dian, Guan Yu, Xu Chu and others.
He held up the wine cup and said with a loud laugh: "Everyone, our army has been reporting a lot of good news recently on both the north and south routes. Let's not ignore the war on Huang Hansheng and Xun Situ's side. Let's just talk about our side. In recent days, we have won several battles in a row and killed many people.
Cao Jun's general Xia Houyuan and the governor of Dongjun Cheng Yu, the enemy army is frightened, who should take credit for this?"
Zhuge Liang stood up and said: "Uncle Liu Huang leads the army and obeys his advice very well. He is a true hero. This achievement must be attributed to the emperor uncle alone."
Liu Bei was startled when he heard this and said hurriedly: "Please don't make fun of me. It is you and Pang Shiyuan who designed to kill Xia Houyuan. What do you have to do with me? Aren't you making Cao Cao hate me to death?"
"
Liu Qi heard this and said happily: "Isn't the emperor afraid of Cao Cao's revenge?"
Liu Bei hurriedly stood up and said: "For the sake of Your Majesty and the great Han, not just one Cao Cao comes to avenge you, but I am not afraid of hundreds of Cao Cao coming... It's just that I really don't deserve this merit."
Liu Qi smiled and said: "Yes, the strategy was decided by Kong Ming and Shi Yuan. Xia Houyuan and Xia Hou Shang were also killed by Xu Chu, but the person who took the middle of the arrangement and made good use of Kong Ming and Shi Yuan's strategies was you, the emperor... Although they each had their own
You have great talent, but if your uncle hadn’t used it well, you wouldn’t have achieved this feat, so the merit is still yours!”
Liu Bei felt a little embarrassed when he heard this.
Liu Qi smiled and said: "How would your uncle like me to reward you? How about I promote you to a military position?"
Liu Bei was a little embarrassed when he heard this: "As General Zuo, my military rank is already very high. I don't want to be promoted anymore... It's just that the money in my hand is not enough recently. I sincerely ask your Majesty to reward me according to my merits and give me wealth."
I am deeply grateful for the usefulness of the goods."
Everyone else laughed when they heard this, secretly thinking that Liu Bei was indeed a straw shoe weaver. At a time like this, he didn't forget to ask His Majesty for money.
Only Sima Yi glanced at Liu Bei in surprise, but then hurriedly turned away.
Liu Qi sighed and said: "The emperor's uncle is my close minister, but he has been reduced to the end of having no money to spend? Alas, I have really failed as an emperor."
Liu Bei was startled when he heard this and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, the reason why I am poor is because I spend more and more. I usually like luxurious things. What does it have to do with Your Majesty?"
Liu Qi smiled and said: "Uncle Emperor, you don't have to be like this. Don't worry, I will reward you well this time so that you can live a life of food and clothing and enjoy luxurious things!"
Liu Bei quickly thanked him.
Except for Sima Yi, others such as Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong and others also secretly admired that this imperial uncle was really not an ordinary person.
Is it possible for ordinary people to want money but not an official position?
Just when everyone was marveling at Uncle Liu's wisdom and sense of proportion, they saw a guard walking in.
