After lingering at the entrance of the lobby for a while, Cao Chong didn't stay long.
Since he chose to come to see the family, Cao Chong naturally thought of a way to deal with the family.
Besides, it is the family who is anxious now, not him Cao Chong.
As soon as Cao Chong stepped into the threshold of the lobby, the noise in the hall suddenly subsided a lot, and it became a little strangely quiet.
However, Cao Chong has experienced too many ups and downs, and in the face of the eyes of these family representatives that are as big as walnuts, his face is very calm, as if he doesn't take these eyes in his eyes.
In front of everyone, Cao Chong slowly walked up to the main seat, and then turned around unhurriedly and saluted everyone in the family.
"Let you wait here for a long time, it is Ben Hou's is not, Cao Chong is very guilty in his heart, here, Ben Hou apologizes to you."
When he said this, Cao Chong frowned, and his tone was depressed, as if he was really guilty and really apologizing.
But everyone present knew that Cao Chong would not feel guilty at this time.
After saying this, Cao Chong was just about to sit down, but at this time, Cao Shuo, who was faced with a black pot, stood up in one step, he saluted Cao Chong, and then said: "Junhou, it doesn't matter if I wait here for two days and two nights, the most important thing is that Junhou has to give an order now, send troops to Dunhuang, and drive the Xiqiang King out of Dunhuang County." ” After Cao Shuo said this, those Dunhuang families immediately stood up and responded to Cao Shuo.
"What Mr.
Cao said is that the king of Xiqiang caused trouble in Jiuquan in Dunhuang, and the prince, as the governor of Liangzhou, should be expelled from the country."
"Yes, what's more, if the prince doesn't come up with this coalition strategy, then the king of Xiqiang will not act recklessly in Dunhuang County so easily, it is reasonable, the prince has to expel the king of Xiqiang with troops."
"What Brother Huang said is very true, this time the king of Xiqiang went to Jiuquan Dunhuang to wreak havoc, and the prince has to pay the main responsibility, and the losses in various places are also asked to pay some in advance, so that the people can survive."
"Yes, please send troops to the prince."
Looking at these large and small families under the leadership of Cao Shuo, they said to Cao Chong, that formation, I didn't know that I thought I was going to come up and beat Cao Chong severely.
If it was a child-in-law who had never been in the world, such a scene would have made him so scared that he would have to throw out a few drops of urine, but Cao Chong was not a child-in-law who had never been in the world.
Cao Chong has seen too much of the world, and he has seen more people, how can he be frightened by the sharp shouting and scolding words of several people in the family In fact, these people chattered endlessly, but the expression on Cao Chong's face was unwavering, and his face did not change at all, and finally showed a smile.
"Everyone, it's done" That's it Not only these family representatives, but also not only Cao Shuo, but even Wei Yan and Zhou Dufu behind Cao Chong were stunned for a moment.
Everyone is screaming so badly, even if you don't send troops directly, you should comfort a few words, what are you talking about now That's it Hoh and ho and ho Cao Shuo got up so much that his beard was blowing, and his hands were shaking all the time, this was not sick, but angry.
This Luoyang Hou, what does this sentence mean Humiliate me, etc Cao Shuo was already short-tempered, where could he bear it at this time, he immediately took another step forward, pointed at Cao Chong and said: "Luoyang Hou, what do you mean by this sentence that my Dunhuang was trampled by the King of Xiqiang at this time, so you actually said such cool words, how can you be worthy of your official position, how can you be worthy of the trust of the people of Liangzhou in you, and the trust of the King of Wei in you" In terms of mouth cannons, Cao Chong is naturally no worse than this Cao Shuo, but now that he really wants to quarrel with Cao Shuo, he will naturally be his own in the end.
Why can the elderly rely on the old and sell the old, it is because the society respects the old This is the case in later generations, and even more so now, Cao Chong can naturally refute Cao Shuo, but the refutation is too powerful, but it will leave a lot of infamy.
Of course, Cao Chong also knew in his heart that his image in the eyes of these family members was not very good.
And in fact, in the eyes of these families, no matter how good your image is, it is useless.
The family does things according to interests, not according to the image, and besides, your image is good, for these families, isn't it the appearance of becoming an honest person, and an honest person is destined to be slaughtered.
Is Cao Chong an honest man?
Of course not "Mr. one by one high hat buckle on the head of the Hou, but it is to make the Hou panic, Dunhuang is now suffering from the ravages of Qianghu, the Hou is heartbroken, more anxious than you, if the Hou is within his ability, now you can send troops, for you to drive the King of Xiqiang out of Dunhuang, but, the Hou also has a hard time, the Hou is the pastor of Liangzhou, but it is also a newcomer, and has not even been to Jiuquan Dunhuang, your urgent mood can be understood, but please also understand the difficulties of the Hou."
Cao Chong's words, the expression and tone of his speech, as if he wanted to take out his heart.
Of course, the family in the audience knew that Cao Chong was acting on the spot, but Cao Chong actually pretended to be so similar, it was not good for them to come over directly and continue the same topic as before.
But it is impossible to say Cao Chong as before, but it can be refuted by changing the law.
Huang Hua was the first to stand up.
"Since the prince said that there is a difficulty, then tell us what the difficulty of the prince is, if we can, we can help the prince get through the difficulty."
Cao Chong's face was embarrassed, he glanced at Huang Hua, and the words were also spoken.
"Since someone wants to ask Ben Hou's difficulties, Ben Hou said bluntly, Dongcang originally had a lot of grain and grass, but Ben Hou now found that a lot of it is moldy and rotten, plus Qiang Hu came to attack, Wuwei's wheat and millet were trampled by Qiang Hu wantonly, and when it came to harvest, there was not one out of ten grain and grass that could be obtained."
Cao Chong's words were a bit naked, and he directly said to these families that I have no food, and if you want me to help you, you must give me food and grass.
As for whether the grain and grass in Dongcang are moldy, I Cao Chong said that if the grain and grass in Dongcang are moldy, they will be moldy, so you have to go and see it in person Even if you go to see it for yourself, Cao Chong can say that the white is black and the black is white.
The current initiative is in Cao Chong's hands.
Cao Shuo, Huang Hua and the others turned blue and white, but in the end they still saluted Cao Chong.
"If it's just a matter of grain and grass, we are willing to raise 50,000 people's rations for the prince for a month."
A month's worth of rations Cao Chong shook his head and said: "Everyone, Wu Wei doesn't know if he can survive this catastrophe, and if Benhou has no food in his hands, how will those soldiers listen to me, how will the people live, 50,000 people will eat a month's grain and grass, which is too little." ” Cao Chong's face was bitter, and his tone was even more aggrieved, but when he heard Huang Hua Cao Shuo's ears, it was very harsh.
Originally, the faces of the two of them were blue and white, but now, their faces are even more ugly and abnormal, even more ugly than their dead relatives.
You must know that Dunhuang originally had 10,000 people of the Tuoba prince harassing on the side, and originally these 10,000 people did not dare to attack the family, but only found some villages to start and plunder the grain and grass items and population, if only so, although the family will suffer losses, but the losses will definitely not be too great.
Prince Tuoba didn't dare to attack the family, then, the king of Xiqiang who came later was a transit locust, plus he had countless soldiers in his hands, Dunhuang no one could stop him, for a while, Dunhuang suffered heavy losses, even if it was as strong as the Dunhuang Cao family, now it is also a big injury, and it is estimated that it is not much better than the current Jia family.
At this time, his own situation is so depressed, but this Luoyang Hou still wants the lion to open his mouth.
Cao Shuo was angry that his whole body was shaking like a sieve, if it had been before, he would have rushed up and pointed at Cao Chong's nose and scolded.

But he knew he couldn't now.
He needs the help of the Marquis of Luoyang, he needs Cao Chong to drive the King of Xiqiang out of Dunhuang and recover the losses, not to mention that the strength of the Marquis of Luoyang is completely different from his now.
Before recovering his strength, Cao Shuo knew that he had to be dormant, and people who were high-spirited never lived long.
Hoh and ho and ho Cao Shuo took several deep breaths in a row, then looked at Cao Chong and saluted Cao Chong, his tone had already become very calm.
"Since the 50,000-person one-month ration is not satisfied, the prince thinks how much grain and grass can send troops."
This tone is like turning himself into a villain.
However, the role Cao Chong is playing now is really a villain.
"Since the gentleman said so, then Ben Hou also said it."
Cao Chong paused for a moment, turned his gaze to the representatives of the family under the hall, stretched out two fingers in his right hand, and said, "Two hundred thousand people, half a year's ration." ” what Half a year's ration for 200,000 people That's not a small number.
The army is a big food eater, and a soldier must eat at least 500 catties of grain a year, and that is 250 catties of grain in half a year. 200,000 people are to add five zeros and multiply them by two.
That's 50 million catties of grain.
This is definitely not a small amount.
Before Dunhuang Jiuquan was captured, it was a little weak to get these grains and grasses, let alone now.
Cao Shuo's fist clenched for a moment, but then slowly let go.
"Junhou, if we have so much grain and grass, then we will naturally present it to Junhou, but the key is that we can't take out so much grain and grass, and if the prince wants us to produce so much grain, we are powerless." 50 million grains, converted into the unit of this era, is more than 200,000 stone of grain, with the productivity of this era, a state can produce more grain in a year.
Cao Shuo was powerless, so it was naturally in Cao Chong's imagination.
Ahem.
Cao Chong coughed twice and said, "Maybe this number is a bit big, but these 200,000 grains and grass are not only for the soldiers, but also for the people of Wuwei." ” At this time, Huang Hua stepped forward.
"Since the prince is for the sake of the people of Wuwei, why can't he also think about the people of Dunhuang Jiuquan, if Jiuquan Dunhuang really gives the prince so much food, then, what do the people of Dunhuang and Jiuquan eat and drink?"
Hearing Huang Hua's words, Cao Chong showed a look of sudden enlightenment.
"Brother Huang's words are reasonable, but Ben Hou is not thoughtful."
Before Huang Hua and Cao Shuo had time to raise a trace of hope in their hearts, Cao Chong's words behind him poured a large basin of cold water on them.
"That's what do you think of the half-year ration for 50,000 people, plus 50,000 armor and blades, and 10,000 horses?"
The ration of 50,000 people is 12.5 million catties, which is not a small amount, but the people of Dunhuang County in Jiuquan can still bear so much grain and grass.
However, 50,000 soldiers and 10,000 horses, isn't this a draw from the bottom of the kettle?
You must know that there are only 30,000 cavalry in Jiuquan County in Dunhuang County, and after the big battle, there are almost 10,000 cavalry left, and the same is true for armor blades.
This condition is not much different from the previous condition at all.
Cao Shuo's face was pale, but after taking a few deep breaths hard, his words were still calm.
"Prince, this request will be too much, we can barely advance the grain and grass, but the armor, soldiers, and horses, we are not enough."
After listening to Cao Shuo's words, Cao Chong touched the beard fluff on his chin, and said with a smile: "In this case, then 50,000 people will have half a year's ration, 30,000 people's armor, and 8,000 horses, what do you think?"
This requirement is naturally harsh for the family, but if you can drive King Xiqiang out earlier, or even get back what you lost, then it is not a loss to pay these things.
Cao Shuo glanced at these people, and everyone had a heavy expression on their faces, but in the end, everyone nodded.
It can't be delayed any longer, and if you go earlier, there will be fewer people in Dunhuang and fewer things to lose.
And there is one thing that the Dunhuang family is also very afraid of, that is, if the king of Xiqiang really runs away, then they will cry.
King Xiqiang held a large amount of grain, grass, gold, silver and jewelry in his hands, carrying tens of thousands of people, if he was allowed to leave, it would be a heavy loss.
The family was so anxious for Cao Chong to send troops, so naturally he wanted to get back what he had lost.
"Prince, we agreed."
Hearing Cao Shuo's words, a smile appeared on Cao Chong's face.
More than 10 million catties of grain, 30,000 people of armor, and 8,000 horses, just releasing one of them is not a small business, and together, it is a huge wealth.
With these armors, Cao Chong could immediately form another 30,000 infantry, 8,000 cavalry, plus Cao Chong's existing army, for a total of 60,000 or 70,000 troops.
Sixty or seventy thousand people are in their hands, and then Liangzhou will really be subdued by Cao Chong.
"Okay, good, hahaha, sir."
Cao Chong is really happy now.
Seeing such a happy smile on Cao Chong's face, the corners of Cao Shuo's mouth twitched, and his heart felt as if he was zhēnci, uncomfortable, he endured the discomfort of his body, saluted Cao Chong again, and said: "Since we have met the conditions of the prince, can the prince send troops now?"
dispatch troops Cao Chong nodded and said, "Of course, Benhou immediately sent 30,000 soldiers to Dunhuang to assist you in driving the king of Xiqiang out of Dunhuang.

Seeing Cao Chong so refreshing, Cao Shuo put down the last trace of worry.
He was afraid that Cao Chong would eat dry and wipe clean, but he would not recognize people, which was the last thing Cao Shuo wanted to see.
Fortunately, although this Luoyang Marquis is bad, at least he still abides by the contract.
As everyone knows, someone is playing with other ideas at the moment.
