Chapter 988 Invincible life is a drunk
What surprised everyone was that before raising the glass, Zhao Xing did not make any long toasts, but simply said a few truthful words.
Zhao Xing said: "The war has been fought so far, it is no longer interesting. Today, Mr. Cao and Mr. Liu came to this pavilion to discuss with me the peaceful solution to Xuchang. Everyone is just a witness! We will seize the time to solve internal affairs, so we can free up our hands to explore east, south, west and north. In the future, we will not have to waste our power in internal friction, but also keep the Han people away from the war and get a lasting rest and rest."
After politely celebrating each other, Cao Cao asked with great interest: "Guochang, I heard what you said just now. The Han Dynasty can expand to the east, west, south, and north. I can understand this going west. After all, there is a very vast world west of the Pamir Mountains. Hasn't it all fallen into your hands? And it's also going east. The Sanhan Peninsula to the east is now in your hands. Where can I go? Go south, the heat miasma is rampant and snakes and insects are raging. How can I live?"
Zhao Xing then said to Li Jinsi: "Jinsi, let people lift the whole picture of the world up, and today we will open our eyes to Meng De and Xuan De!"
Soon, Li Jinsi, who was prepared, brought a few tall and strong guards to lift a huge map that was ten feet square and spread it flat in the gap in the middle of the pavilion. He saw six golden words embroidered with golden silk on the top of the map, "The Map of the Whole Country of Geography" with golden silk.
This picture is the huge map that has been hanging on the wall of Zhao Xing's study. After Zhao Xing's reincarnation, he was worried that as time went by, some of his memories of his previous life would gradually blur, so he drew this map with his memory in the shortest time. It can be said that the various military maps used in Jin** later used this picture as the master to enlarge and mark local areas.
Those who have the opportunity to enter and exit the study room in Zhao Xing's Wohu City may not have the opportunity to see this extremely precious map, because sometimes Zhao Xing will cover the map with a curtain. Without Zhao Xing's complete trust in someone, he will not let outsiders see this map easily.
This picture of all nations represents Zhao Xing's ideals and determination.
There are not many ordinary people in the pavilion, and most of them have been fortunate to see this huge map in Zhao Xing's study, but this is the first time that Lu Bu, Zhang He, Huang Zhong and other generals have seen it, and it is naturally the first time that Cao Cao and Liu Bei have seen it.
No matter how many times I saw this huge map, everyone in the pavilion, except Zhao Xing, could not suppress the shock in their hearts surrounding the map, and kept turning their eyes from one place to another.
The people in the pavilion, whether they are military generals or scholars, are all people who know soldiers and know soldiers. It is hard for them to identify the map. Although this was the first time Cao Cao and Liu Bei saw this picture, they just took a few more glances and immediately understood the profound meaning of the picture.
In the middle of the map, naturally, all the territory of the Han Dynasty, and many important cities, such as Luoyang, Chang'an, Xiangyang, Xuzhou, etc., are clearly marked. The place where Cao Cao and Liu Bei looked at it was the vast world outside the Han Dynasty.
"I took a boat out of Xuzhou and sailed eastward. There was such a huge area!" Cao Cao's finger pulled a straight line from Xuzhou across the air until North America on the map stopped. "Is it said that this is full of vast sea?"
Zhao Xing nodded and said, "It is difficult to reach this place by boat from Xuzhou with the current navigation level and shipbuilding technology of the Han Dynasty. Because this place is more than 20,000 miles east of the Han Dynasty, the sea water between the Han Dynasty and the mainland here is bottomless. When the sea storm starts, the waves are surging, which are beyond the reach of human power."
Liu Bei also seemed to have forgotten the main purpose of his visit. He pointed to the Bering Strait, which separated the Asian plate from the North American plate, and said to himself: "It turns out that he has been moving north and has such a huge territory. If you cross the strait from this narrow place and go east along the land, wouldn't you be able to reach the extreme east land that Meng De said?"
After hearing Liu Bei's words, Zhao Xing was also amazed. After all, he was a hero with the heart of the world. He saw the possibility of traveling from the Bering Strait to North America at a glance. In fact, many geologists and human research scholars insisted that the Indians were Asian races who migrated from the Bering Strait to North and South America. Otherwise, the origin of the Indians' yellow skin would not be explained.
Zhao Xing stood next to the map and patiently explained to everyone various doubts, including the climate of various continents, large mountains, rivers, and the indigenous people who may live in the local area, mineral species, etc. The process of this explanation lasted for two hours. During this period, everyone kept coming and going between the wine table and the map. When they heard the joyful place, someone suggested drinking a glass of wine together, so everyone ate generously.
Later, when everyone was drunk, they returned to their seats.
Cao Cao, who could no longer see clearly whether he was a black face or a blush face, or should have a purple face, asked Zhao Xing with his tongue wide and said, "The world is so big, your Zhao family really intends to take it alone?"
I don’t know if Zhao Xing is really drunk or fake, but he just heard him answer vaguely: “Cao Heizi, there is something wrong with your words. It’s not that my old Zhao family owns it, but that we share it, and all the great men and people share it!”
Cao Cao was a little reluctant and asked again: "Then where are you going to put my old Cao family?"
Zhao Xing then said with a strange smile: "Just seeing you are very interested in North America thousands of miles away, so I will leave a fief for you Cao's family in the territory of the Han Dynasty, and then send a large ship to escort two-thirds of your Cao's family to North America?"
Cao Cao rolled his eyes and replied drunkenly: "Go and go! It seems good to be a king on such a large territory. It is better than being imprisoned by you in the Han Dynasty, so that my Cao family will no longer have the hope of rising up!" After saying this, Cao Heizi finally couldn't bear to drink and fell asleep on the table.
Cao Cao was drunk, and Liu Bei came to ask Zhao Xing for similar words again. Zhao Xing's answer almost made Liu Da'er, who was pretending to be drunk, pissed to death.
Zhao Xing said: "You and Lao Cao have been fighting against me in the past two years. Since you are so passionate, Lao Cao will take his tribe to North America, so you can go to South America! These two continents are closely connected, and you will take care of each other in the future!"
Although I don’t know what Zhao Xing meant, Liu Bei heard that it was definitely not a good thing, but there was nothing he could do.
Looking at Liu Bei with a bitter look, Zhao Xing comforted and said, "Big ears, don't be frowning. Didn't I keep fiefs for you and the Lao Cao family in the territory of the Han Dynasty? When you get old and want to return to your roots, as long as you and your descendants still recognize yourself as Han people and your ancestral tombs, you can come back by boat! I am generous enough and gave up the two and three Han areas to your two families at once!"
