Ask for materials from the top, but leave the remaining wood behind Ask for fish, I will dry the grain If you ask for power, you will be killed What is the price of life?
"My lord, you are still sad about the massacre of the people of Xuzhou." superior.
Even though he didn't see it very clearly, his brows were still beating wildly.
"What I said just now, only the best can understand its meaning."
Cao Cao did not answer Xia Houyuan's words, but asked this sentence inexplicably.
But his eyes were still staring at the tragic scene in the distance, as if he wanted to remember this moment of animal behavior in his heart forever.
"The master wants wood, and his subordinates will cut down a forest; the master wants a fish, and his subordinates will drain the water in the valley; the master wants power, and his subordinates will."
At this point, Xia Houyuan felt that he The seams between the bones are cold.
He looked at the wheelbarrows filled with rice, meat and military rations passing in front of him.
Even though he killed countless people, he still felt like he couldn't help but retching in his stomach.
"Yes, with the Lord's order, one hundred thousand Xuzhou people will become corpses.
Moreover, there will be no bones left."
Cao Cao leisurely walked down this high valley, as if he never wanted to look back.
But his clenched hands betrayed his true feelings.
"Lord, you have to do this."
Xia Houyuan was helpless.
He knew that this matter could not be entirely blamed on Cao Cao, so he comforted Cao Cao and said: "In troubled times, living for these people is a kind of torture, not to mention, After my lord's action, the entire Xuzhou will no longer face wars in the future.
When the next generation grows up, they will only remember the lord's kindness in giving food and clothing, but they will not remember what they did today."
"Blood and sin can never be washed away.
Even if it is a hundred or a thousand years later, history will still remember that I, Cao Mengde, once got angry and bloodbathed Xuzhou."
Cao Cao finally couldn't help the excitement in his heart.
He suddenly turned around and looked at Looking at Xia Houyuan, he said: "Today, in this place, there are only a few people who know how hard I, Cao Mengde, have worked so hard.
But today, in this place, there are already countless fools who don't understand my heart, and they have begun to criticize me with words and writings."
After saying this, Xia Houyuan was speechless.
This result is actually taken for granted.
However, as a general, he could not imagine how to solve Cao Cao's heartache at this time.
The two walked in silence and walked to Cheng Yu's side before they knew it.
At this time, Cheng Yu was holding a stack of Fufeng paper in his hand and was asking the official at the same time: "How many people have we killed?"
"Military advisor, we have killed everyone in this area.
Please advise my lord to stop."
A civil servant suddenly stepped forward, kowtowed and cried.
"I'm just asking you, how many people have you killed in total?"
Cheng Yu asked without raising his eyelids, as if talking casually.
But the clever civil servant had already noticed that Cheng Yu slightly looked at his right hand: that was the hand that was chopped by Xiahou Dun, and it was also the hand where the lord dripped blood into his palm.
The most important thing is that that hand was once stained with blood If he keeps blabbering, the civil servant knows that Cheng Yu will definitely let his hands get stained with another ray of blood.
"We have killed more than 50,000 people in this area," the civil servant replied tremblingly.
After saying this, he fell to the ground and did not dare to look at Cheng Yu again.
After hearing this, Cheng Yu suddenly paused for a moment while looking at the file, then raised his head and said two words in a low voice but firmly: "Not enough."
"No, not enough."
Upon hearing this, all the civil servants involuntarily took a step back and said in shock.
It was at this time that Cheng Yu raised his eyes and saw Cao Cao beside him.
He couldn't help but salute and said: "My lord, what I said is not enough, right?"
When Cao Cao heard this, his expression did not change at all, and he said: "It is indeed not enough.
Judging from the current situation, at least one hundred thousand people must be killed.
Send the order, spread the numbers of Qingzhou soldiers in nearby cities, and tell them to kill them again."

Kill, kill” "Lord," a civil official couldn't stand hearing it any longer.
He couldn't help but stepped forward and hugged Cao Cao's thigh and prayed: "In this case, you will become a sinner in the world.
Do you know that the old Jiujiang prefect Bianyi has already scolded you and scolded you?"
" "Being worse than a beast, the eunuch will be in trouble."
Cao Cao spat out these eight words lightly, and then looked at the civil servant hugging his thigh with a sinister expression.
He stared at him until he let go of his thigh in fear, and then he smiled sinisterly and said: "This man is a famous scholar in Chenliu.
After retiring, he is still a leading scholar.
Unfortunately, he only insulted me, Cao Mengde, and dared to say that I conquered Yuan Shu because of his defiance of nature.
Such a disloyal, unjust and short-sighted person. , what’s the use of keeping it?”
"My lord," the civil servant suddenly retreated in fear, kowtowing as if pounding garlic.
He knew that Cao Cao had always been a man who acted vigorously and resolutely, and if he said these words at this time, he would definitely give way to others.
Sure enough, Cao Cao pointed to the wheelbarrow that just passed by and said, "Perhaps, in that wheelbarrow, there is a contribution of giving in."
"What?"
The civil servants suddenly turned around and saw that a section of the thigh bone fell off the wheelbarrow pushed by the sturdy Qingzhou soldier with the ferocious gleam of a beast in his eyes, and their faces turned pale with fright.
Some civil servants even knelt down and vomited.
"However, I really want to thank Bian Rang.
If he hadn't scolded Cao, Cao would have never known that his wife was so young and beautiful.
It would be a pity to spend time in Bian Rang's place like this."
After that, Cao Cao suddenly calmed down his tone, stared at the civil servant and asked: "I wonder if your wife is also a beautiful person?"
"My lord, my lord."
The civil servant naturally thought of the tragic situation of being killed and his family ruined.
At this time, when he heard Cao Cao's question, how could he still not know that Cao Cao was using his unique way to declare to the world that he was It’s completely okay to kill someone else’s loved one As a result, the civil servant was so frightened that he almost lost control.
He kowtowed and cried with tears in his eyes: "The wife of a humble official is a woman without salt.
How can she get into the eyes of Lord Sikong?"
"Very good."
Cao Cao walked around the civil servant, and after seeing that the civil servant's crotch was already lowered, he laughed disdainfully and said, "However, you did say a lot just now, one hundred thousand People."
All the civil servants looked at Cao Cao in disbelief.
It was unimaginable that Cao Cao, the tyrant who killed Bian Rang's family and took his wife as his mistress, had such conscience.
But to be honest, at this moment, these civil servants no longer thought much about the life and death of the people in Xuzhou.
After all, saving the lives of their own family is what they care more about.
Xia Houyuan and Cheng Yu both looked at each other with a hint of disbelief.
But the other eight points of emotion in the eyes of Xia Houyuan and Cheng Yu are different: Xia Houyuan is happy and sad, while Cheng Yu is disappointed and helpless.
Only Xu Chu and Dian Wei looked at Cao Cao with loyalty that remained unchanged.
But at this time, Cao Cao turned around again, looked up at the tragic scene in the distance again, and said: "I really have to make up my mind.
One hundred thousand people is still too few, so let's use three hundred thousand people."
When Cheng Yu heard this, his eyes couldn't help but shine.
Xia Houyuan actually trembled slightly, because he remembered that just now, Cao Cao said: Ask for materials from the top, but leave the remaining wood behind Ask for fish, I will dry the grain If you ask for power, you will be killed What is the price of life?
Why is this ancient maxim completely reversed for Cao Cao?
Are these civil servants too stupid, or are those scribes too paranoid, or is Meng De a cold-blooded and murderous person at heart?
