Chapter 518: The Xenophobia of the Scholars


"Is that what father said?"

After hearing Cao Cao's words, Cao Pi looked at Cao Cao opposite with his eyes widened, while Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi on the side looked at Cao Cao silently, with somewhat good expressions on their faces.

"I'm just saying that if you can, you can tell me what you think."

Cao Cao looked at his three sons and said to them in a heavy tone.

"I don't know, my father, please tell me clearly."

Cao Pi thought for a moment and said to Cao Cao in a heavy tone.

After hearing Cao Pi's words, Cao Cao looked thoughtful, looked at Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi on the other side, and asked in a serious tone: "Then what do you two think?"

"Father, I am a rough man, how can I know this?"

Cao Zhang said helplessly as he touched the back of his head.

The young Cao Zhi shook his head vigorously, saying that he didn't know how to answer.

"Haha, you guys go down first and tell me when you think of the answer."

Cao Cao looked at his three sons and spoke to them in a heavy tone.

"Father, please excuse me," Cao Pi took the lead and saluted Cao Cao, and then Cao Pi and the other three left Cao Cao's secret room.

Cao Cao looked at the three sons leaving, stood up silently, then lowered his head and thought for a while, and finally a soft smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

At this time, Bai Ren's mansion, Bai Ren left Cao Cao's mansion and came back specifically to summon his confidants for a small meeting.

Of course, Bai Ren also specially invited Pang Tong.

Now Bai Ren plans to bring Pang Tong to his side.

After all, the more talents on his side, the better.

Bai Ren is sitting in the main seat.

On the right are Bai Ren's staff.

The first person sitting is Pang Tong.

This was specially arranged by Bai Ren.

Next are Jia Xu, Liu Ye and Xun Chen.

On the left is Bai Ren.

The generals are Zhang Liao, Zhang He, Gao Shun, Gao Lan, Xu Sheng, Pan Zhang, Liao Hua, Zhou Cang, Meng San, and Hao Zhao.

"Haha, Zi Fu, why did you pull me here?"

Pang Tong looked at Wu in Bai Ren's room, his face was slightly stunned, he thought for a moment, and asked Bai Ren with a smile.

Bai Ren looked at Pang Tong's smiling face, silently touched his chin, and said to Pang Tong in a calm tone: "Don't you think Shi Yuan wants to know the content of the meeting Cao Cao convened with his men?"

After hearing Bai Ren's words, Pang Tong glanced at Bai Ren, then smiled, looked at Wu who was sitting around him, and said to Bai Ren in a calm tone: "If you hadn't said that, I would have thought you were showing me Where’s the strength?”

"Oh, there are many scholars coming and going in my Bai Ren's mansion.

They talk and laugh without white Ding Shiyuan.

Do you want to stay in my Bai Mansion?

Let me tell you that there are fine wines in my Bai Mansion."

After hearing Pang Tong's words, Bai Ren said with a tone of voice.

He said to Bai Ren with a smile.

Pang Tong was slightly stunned after hearing Bai Ren's words.

He didn't expect Bai Ren to start recruiting him directly.

Pang Tong was slightly stunned.

Pang Tong helplessly said to Bai Ren: "My home is in Jingzhou now.

If I defect to Zifu, I'm afraid Jingzhou The family may disagree."

After listening to Pang Tong's words, Bai Ren touched his beard.

Although Pang Tong's words were a bit reluctant, Bai Ren knew that what Pang Tong said was reasonable.

Since ancient times, family has come first.

This is the heart of the nobles.

Therefore, the four major families in Jiangdong Even though they opposed Sun Ce's rule, they did not seek refuge with others.

However, the Lu family immediately had a grudge against Sun Ce, and some people served Sun Quan.

"Haha, it's okay, Jingzhou will soon become Prime Minister Cao's possession."

Bai Ren listened to Pang Tong's words, touched his chin, and said to Pang Tong in a somewhat flat tone.

Pang Tong was stunned for a moment after hearing Bai Ren's words, and then he opened his eyes.

There was a hint of shock on his ugly face, and then he asked Bai Ren in a hoarse tone: "Could it be that Cao Cao is preparing to send troops to attack Jingzhou?"

Bai Ren chuckled and replied to Pang Tong in a calm tone: "Yes, Prime Minister Cao is going to attack Jingzhou.

This is an issue discussed in the Prime Minister's Mansion today."

"Here" After hearing Bai Ren's words, the Wu around him silently lowered their heads and began to think.

Pang Tong raised his head and finally said with a heavy tone: "Cao Cao's attack on Jingzhou is simply the wrong decision."

Bai Ren looked at Pang Tong, touched his chin, looked at Pang Tong with interest, and said to Pang Tong in a calm tone: "This is a battleground for Jingzhou military strategists, how could you make a mistake?"

"Bai Zifu, first of all, other princes will not allow Cao Cao to seize Jingzhou.

Secondly, do you know that the aristocratic families in the south have always been rejecting foreign forces?"

Pang Tong touched his beard and looked at Bai Ren with a heavy expression.

After hearing what Pang Tong said, Bai Ren didn't speak.

He lowered his head and began to think about what Pang Tong said.

The big families in Jingzhou in history were indeed a bit xenophobic.

When Liu Biao entered Jingzhou, no one supported him.

Later, he didn't accept the Cai family.

With the support of many aristocratic families such as the Kuai family, Finally, he took his current position, but today Liu Biao has never really had the power to control Jingzhou.

As for Liu Bei's period, Liu Bei was not forced to use Liu Biao's son Liu Qi for rule.

It can be said that a wealthy family like Jingzhou, There is absolutely no room for a strong Cao Cao.

"Haha, what you said makes sense, but I think with Cao Cao's strength, it should be extremely easy to attack the second half of Jingzhou."

Bai Ren slowly raised his head and said to Pang Tong in a relaxed tone.

After hearing Bai Ren's words, Pang Tong lowered his head, thought for a moment, and finally said to Bai Ren in a heavy tone: "Are you really so sure that Cao Cao can attack the second half of Jingzhou?"

Bai Ren chuckled, then a calm smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and said in a calm tone: "This time Cao Mengde mobilized all his troops to go south.

With Cao Cao's strength, it is easy to annex half of Jingzhou, right?

The only thing that can stop Cao Cao from going south is that The Yangtze River is naturally dangerous, right?”

After Bai Ren finished speaking, Pang Tong fell into deep thought silently, and finally said to Bai Ren in a helpless tone: "Yes, you are right.

I agree with you, but you want me to join you until Cao Cao attacks."

Let’s talk about it after we get to Jingzhou.”

After hearing what Pang Tong said, Bai Ren said nothing more.

After all, nothing he said could change Pang Tong's mind, so he silently said nothing more.

On the side, Jia Xu looked at Bai Ren, touched his beard, and said to Bai Ren with a heavy tone: "Now the master needs to think about what to do next."

Bai Ren looked at Jia Xu on the side, and asked Jia Xu with a somewhat puzzled tone: "Shouldn't I go south with Cao Cao next?"

"Master, you better not think about it when I go south.

Now that my master's achievements are with me, I'm afraid Cao Cao won't give my master any more military exploits."

After hearing Bai Ren's words, Jia Xu showed a smile on his lips, and then said indifferently Bai Ren said.

After listening to Jia Xu's words, Bai Ren lowered his head and thought for a while.

His current military exploits can be said to be unique in Cao Cao's camp.

If he continues like this, I'm afraid he will really be the master of great achievements.

Bai Ren hesitated for a moment and asked Jia Xu in a heavy tone: "Then where will Cao Cao leave him?

Isn't he staying in Xuchang again?

It seems that he is going to rest again."

"I'm afraid Cao Cao, who won't be able to rest, must do something for his master to do with peace of mind."

Jia Xu thought for a while and said to Bai Ren in a heavy tone.

"Is there anything else?"

Bai Ren asked Jia Xu with some confusion.

Jia Xu touched his beard, looked at the sky, and finally said to Bai Ren calmly: "I'm afraid they are the aliens from the north."
