Mu\Can\Wenxue: Seeing Ma Chao's involuntary smile, Cao Tai was suddenly startled.
A very ominous premonition rose from the soles of his feet to the Tianling Cap, and in his ears, he heard Ma Chao say something leisurely: "General Cao, have you heard of installment payments?"
"General" before Ma Chao could finish speaking, Cao Ang stood up suddenly and interrupted quickly.
His identity and keen intuition determined that he had to say a few words for the Cao family at this time: "General, the Ma and Cao families are now indispensable princes of the Han Dynasty, and they should work together to unify the Han Dynasty. .
Matters depend on their importance.
Today, the fourteen states of the Han Dynasty are still divided.
The two families do not think about how to unify, but they are once again plotting against each other.
This is a matter of sacrificing great righteousness for small righteousness.
The general has long been famous in the world, and his martial name is well known in the world.
At this good opportunity, it is time to mobilize his troops southward to restore the country and revive the Han Dynasty.
If you capture Jingzhou, all the heroes in the world will look up to you.
The general will not help your majesty to unify, but will stick to the old feud between the two families.
I will steal it and become the general without taking it."
"Very good, Mr.
Cao is absolutely right.
In this case, should the Cao family hand over the power of 200,000 Qingzhou soldiers to the Holy One to show Lord Sikong's reputation for loyalty?"
Ma Chao no longer needs to talk about nonsense like righteousness. .
Peng Yang, who was sitting at the bottom of the table, retorted directly: "Young master Cao is so arrogant.
As the son of Sikong, he doesn't talk about how the Cao family should be loyal, but here he accuses the Ma family.
Such lies, I don't know."
How can Young Master Cao speak so loudly?"
Peng Yang's words were so harsh that they made Cao Ang blush and turn pale.
Even so, Cao Ang and Cao Tai did not dare to confront each other.
After all, it is said that today is for peace talks.
If the two of them continue to struggle over some moral issues, they will only drag the peace talks that have finally entered the substantive negotiation stage back into endless delays.
Such a result is something that the currently weak Cao family is unwilling to accept.
"Position is also the time.
Now that the emperor is young and does not realize the dangers of military affairs, it is also his duty to take charge of the military power on behalf of Sikong."
Cao Tai was very aware of his situation.
He made a little excuse and then brought the topic back: "It's just that , I have never heard of the installment payment mentioned by General Hussar, I hope you will be generous with it."
However, Cao Ang, who had more contact with Ma Chao than Cao Tai, knew that Ma Chao's next words would definitely make Cao Tai regret it.
As a result, the two Cao family members began to fight among themselves.
After Cao Ang glanced at Cao Tai and Cao Tai turned a blind eye, Cao Ang stood up and interrupted Cao Tai to say to Ma Chao: "General Hussar is a benevolent person.
I think he will treat Li Dian and Li Dian leniently."
Le Jin and tens of thousands of soldiers.
The focus of this peace negotiation is on the four counties of Jizhou.
Why do the two families avoid the important and waste their time here?"
Only then did Cao Tai take a serious look at Cao Ang.
He already knew that the bottom line of this negotiation was that Cao Ang, the heir to the Cao family, and his two close confidants must be brought back.
But Cao Ang knew this, and would rather stop the installment payment than suffer the consequences of the Ma family being trapped.
As a result, his face became very solemn, and he remained silent, respecting Cao Ang's opinion.
At the same time, Ma Chao also raised his eyes to look at Cao Ang, the heir to the Cao family who did not leave many records in history.
Only then did he have a very specific impression: On the surface, Cao Ang was humble and kind, with a legacy of literary virtue.
But once his core interests are touched, he is definitely a person who will never give up.
Moreover, when speaking, his ability to adapt to changes is no less than that of Cao Tai.

Both times he opened his mouth, his thoughts were flowing like a fountain, and the topic was introduced without leaving any trace.
However, at this time, Ma Chao had already secured the victory.
He changed his roundabout politeness and threatened implicitly: "Since the Cao family intends to give up, the Ma family will naturally not be dissatisfied with two more famous generals.
There will also be land cultivation and grazing next year.
The lack of population on the border can be used to use these tens of thousands of captives.
As for the four counties of Jizhou, there is no need to talk about it.
Since the covenant has already stated the ownership, the Ma family will not give up any land and will take over it with full authority."
"General Hussar really wanted to take over the four counties of Jizhou."
Cao Ang and Cao Tai never expected that at this point in the negotiation, Ma Chao would make a 180-degree change and really wanted to take over the four counties of Jizhou.
They looked at each other in silence for a moment, only seeing the disbelief in the other person's eyes.
In the end, Cao Ang reacted faster.
Although he couldn't swallow what he said, he still wanted to know why: "General, we can still discuss the negotiation between the four counties in detail.
But this is the end of it." , Cao Ang suddenly didn't know how to continue.
After all, the Ma family had always insisted that the four counties were theirs.
From beginning to end, he had misjudged that the Ma family wanted to give up the four counties.
Ma Chaoyun could hear the secret words in Cao Ang's words, and said with a hint of indescribable ridicule: "Time is also the trend.
The current situation has its own current feelings, and this time also has the current situation."
Cao Ang and Cao Tai heard this , a hint of blush flashed across Jun's face.
There is no doubt that Ma Chao used Cao Tai's words just now to mock the two men for their insincerity and scheming.
Of course, the most fundamental change was because during the sword dance, Ma Chao saw Duanmu clearly making an OK gesture at the door.
Previously, the Ma family did not want the four counties, purely for overall economic considerations.
But with the injection of wealth that Yuan Shu has collected for many years, Ma Chao believes that this wealth can definitely fill this loophole.
As a result, acting on the opportunity, he instantly changed his attitude towards the four counties, causing Cao Ang and Cao Tai to be in chaos.
In the short term, although the four counties do not have much economic benefit, they may still be a drag on the Ma family.
But after all, they are of extremely important strategic significance to the Ma family.
Once the Cao family lets go of the four counties, its tentacles of power will no longer be able to reach the north bank of the Yellow River.
The recovery of Wei County, where Yuan Shao once lived brilliantly, shocked all the people of Jizhou to the Ma family's arms control capabilities.
This was important for integrating the three states of Ming, Ji, and You into the Ma family as soon as possible and for the governance of the Ma family.
The generosity of the lower part has a very positive meaning.
By this point in the entire conversation, Cao Ang and Cao Tai had been completely forced into a corner.
Ma Chao's sudden change completely accepted all the reliance they thought they could control.
But Cao Tai couldn't just go back.
He didn't come here just to be alone.
Cao Cao's bottom line was to bring Cao Ang, Le Jin, and Li Dian back no matter what.
"General, general" he gritted his teeth and did not dare to raise his head.
Cao Tai, who already felt that his face was as red as a monkey's butt, spoke to Ma Chao with great respect and humility: "No, I don't know what the general said before about the installment payment."
If the Cao family can accept it, both families will be happy, and tens of thousands of soldiers will not have to leave their hometown.
Tai would like to thank the general for his generous kindness."
Cao Tai didn't know how he finished saying this.
He only felt that after finishing speaking, all the muscles and joints in his body became so tight and stiff due to shame and humiliation that he couldn't even lift his bent waist. stand up.
But the winner, Ma Chao, took a leisurely sip of wine and said in a very happy tone, as if he were giving lessons: "This installment payment, as the name suggests, is a kind of payment for some long-term, high-cost transactions.
Workaround.
Cao was in a dilemma, so naturally he couldn't work it out.
Master Zixiu, the two generals and tens of thousands of soldiers were all redeemed, and the Ma family, in order to maximize their own interests, to seek peace between the two families and for the people to return to their hearts, sacrificed a certain amount of time to recover the ransom from the general attack in several installments.
Correspondingly, the prisoners will also be sent back to the Cao family in batches."

Cao Ang and Cao Tai were both very thoughtful people, and they knew everything after listening to it.
Their expressions changed drastically, and Cao Tai looked at Cao Ang with a look of deep fear and regret: This Ma Chao is going to By using such means, they would kidnap the Cao family alive for at least a year.
His cruel heart and vicious methods make people so unpredictable.
This guy is really a devil who is even better outside the battlefield than on the battlefield!
The two of them wailed in their hearts, but they fell into the abyss like a defeated bird with broken wings, and their whole bodies were bone-chillingly cold. rd can collect this book Recommended reading:,,,,,,,, ,,,,,:
