Chapter 172: The Way Home is the Journey!


Out of the inner mansion and in the lobby of the outer mansion, Cao Chong immediately summoned Zhuge Liang and others.

In less than a moment, Zhuge Liang, Deng Ai, Guo Xiao and others immediately appeared in front of Cao Chong, as for Yang Xiu, Wang Shuang, Jiang Wei and others, they were still in Wushi at this time Of course, the Wu clan did not dare to disobey Cao Chong's orders, especially when the king was in the courtiers, the speed of the Wu clan's instigation was faster than Cao Chong imagined.

At the beginning, 30,000 or 40,000 people went out, and now Cao Chong's army in Wushi is close to 60,000, and this extra army, in addition to the soldiers drawn from various counties, is also contributed by these people in Wushi.

Yang Xiu and Wang Shuangjiang Wei didn't come, but there were a lot of people in front of Cao Chong.

Zhuge Liang, Deng Ai, Guo Xiao, Sun Zi, Liu Fang These people were more or less able to call for wind and rain in the future.

In addition to Zhuge Liang and Deng Ai, Guo Xiao, Sun Zi and Liu Fang, these people at least have the ability to manage a state.

This is the great talent of this era.

After Cao Chong saw that everyone had come, he gave the letter in his hand to Zhuge Liang, and after Zhuge Liang got the letter, he hurriedly looked at it, and his face suddenly darkened.

He glanced at Cao Chong lightly, did not speak, but passed the letter in his hand to the next person.

Guo Xiao took the letter, and his face changed much more than Zhuge Liang, but since Cao Chong didn't let him speak, although the expression on his face was shocked, he still didn't speak.

In this way, the letters were passed one by one, and after a few moments, everyone in the lobby saw the contents of the letters.

After seeing that everyone had read the letter, Cao Chong asked, "You have all read the letter, you can say what you think." ” The people present looked at each other in pairs, and finally Guo Xiao stood up first, he saluted Cao Chong, and said: "Junhou, this is obviously a trap, at this time, the king of Yecheng is seriously ill, and it is at this time that there is suddenly a trumped-up charge against the prince, this is definitely not a normal thing, Junhou, Guo Xiao thinks that if the prince wants to return to Ye, he must be prepared." ” Cao Chong nodded in agreement.

"This is naturally a trap, a trap that wants my life."

As soon as Cao Chong's words were finished, Zhuge Liang's feather fan on the side shook lightly and asked, "What should the prince do?"

How do I do it Cao Chong smiled, but shook his head first.

"Ben Hou naturally knows what to do, but I'm not sure yet, if you have a better way to do it, think it's the best, Ben Hou summoned you today, is to ask you what Ben Hou should do at this time."

Sun Zi and Liu Fang glanced at each other, and finally Sun Zi coughed, and he stood up.

"Junhou, this Chengcheng is in critical autumn, Yecheng must let Junhou return to Ye, maybe there will be many obstacles on the way back to the city, this is a dangerous road, I think Junhou should go back a few days later."

Slow down a few days and go back This was naturally a good idea, but it was unrealistic, so Cao Chong shook his head.

"Although the idea is good, but it is not realistic, since the edicts and letters of the imperial court have been passed to me, if I should not, it is a weak heart, and a weak heart is a disguised admission of my guilt, which is not a favorable thing for Benhou, and escaping is not a good choice in the first place."

Running away is not a good option.

Sun Zi saluted Cao Chong and slowly retreated.

"In this case, the prince's intention is to return to Yecheng, and it is not to delay the time to go back, but to go back soon."

Cao Chong nodded, but after thinking for a while, Cao Chong shook his head again.

"It can be said that this is the case, but it is not like this, it is naturally true that there is no delay, but you have to make some preparations before you can quickly return to Yecheng."

Get ready Zhuge Liang was stunned for a moment and asked, "What preparations do the princes have to make?"

"According to the letter from my master, I also know a rough idea of what happened in Yecheng, and it is likely that it is not the Marquis of Chang'an who will attack us this time, but the family."

"Family" Guo Xiao thoughtfully.

Cao Chong nodded and said: "It's the family, maybe it's what Benhou did in Liangzhou that made the family in Yecheng, or most of the families in the world frightened, so they want to get rid of my henchman, of course, it is not excluded that there is the shadow of my second brother behind these families, after all, if I die, he will benefit the most." ” Guo Xiao bowed slightly, but there was still some confusion in his eyes.

"The family is powerful, if there are one or two, there is naturally not much danger for the prince, if there are a lot of them, I am afraid that the prince will die this time."

"If you go back completely unprepared, it will naturally be a life of nine deaths, but if you are prepared, it is not known who will die of the deer."

"What should the prince do to prepare?"

The corners of Cao Chong's mouth were slightly hooked, but there was not much nervousness on his face.

"These families still give Ben Hou a way to live, at least the people who escort Ben Hou back to Ye can be their own people, if it is the people of the family who escort Ben Hou back to Ye, then Ben Hou will not return to Ye easily."

Leaving your life to someone else's decision is not Cao Chong's style.

"The people who escort Ben Hou back to Ye can be his own people, then Ben Hou will have 3,000 people to escort Ben Hou back to Ye."

Three thousand people Not only Guo Xiao, but even Zhuge Liang showed surprise on his face at this time.

"Three thousand" Cao Chong glanced at Zhuge Liang, nodded and said, "It's three thousand." ” "Will there be more?"

"It's a little more, but so what" If it is just like Xu Shu's urgent letter of 800 miles, at this time, Boss Cao is seriously ill, and he brought 3,000 elites back to Yecheng, just to deter those families in Yecheng and let them know that I, Cao Chong, am not easy to mess with.

As for what the consequences will be Of course, there will be no consequences.

Maybe it gave the family one more reason to dànhé itself, but what could it be At that time, it was not the mouth that relied on, but the swords in his own hands.

Although Cao Chong still has a lot of people in Nanying, this is a secret hand after all, and Wang Shi of Nanying may not let Cao Chong get his way, and these 3,000 people are Cao Chong's second-hand guarantee.

Not only can you make the shock small, but you can also add an extra hole card to yourself.

Everyone thought about it for a while, and they also thought of these joints, so they all shut their mouths tightly.

"But with only 3,000 people, you can't play with the family, you can't change the inferior position of Benhou, if you want to reverse Benhou's current disadvantage, what can you do?"

Zhuge Liang pondered for a while, he glanced at Guo Xiao, and finally fixed his gaze on Cao Chong.

"If you want to reverse the disadvantage of the prince, it is very simple."

"It's easy" Zhuge Liang nodded and said: "It's really simple, as long as the prince clears up the guilt and suspicion on his body, the so-called disadvantage of the prince no longer exists." ” Zhuge Liang's words are indeed good.

The reason why Cao Chong wanted to leave the current Liangzhou foundation and run away from Yecheng, where his deceased parent Anhou had deeper roots, for the final game, was not because of his suspicion.

The family used this method to attract him to Yecheng.

If they don't have this guilt, they will be seamless eggs, and the family can no longer deal with themselves through fair and honest methods, and once their methods are made, what will greet them will also be Cao Chong's response.

When the time comes, it will not be a war of words, but a direct sword fight.

This is what Cao Chong wants to see the most.

Although the family is powerful and powerful in the court, Boss Cao has long looked at these families unpleasantly, so the military power is basically in the hands of the general surnamed Cao and Xiahou.

In other words, if the family and Cao Chong are really doing it, the family can't do it.

But Zhuge Liang's simple sentence is how easy it is to do "There is no excuse for the crime that you want to add, Kong Ming feels that the suspicion on Ben Hou can be cleared" "If you can't clear your name, there's another way to turn the tide of the situation."

Cao Chong glanced at Zhuge Liang and asked, "Which method?"

"Silence" "Silence" Zhuge Liang nodded and said: "This silence is not to ask the prince not to speak, but to ask the prince to show weakness. ” "Showing weakness" Zhuge Liang nodded again.

"Let the family feel that the prince is no longer a threat."

Cao Chong shook his head.

"I'm afraid that the family thinks that Ben Hou is not a threat, but Ben Hou is dead."

"You don't need the prince to die, you just need the prince to lose his most important thing."

"Something" "Military power."

Cao Chong shook his head decisively.

"It's absolutely not going to work."

He vaguely knew Zhuge Liang's strategy, and if there was something feasible in calculating this strategy, Cao Chong would not do it.

Cao Chong is not afraid of taking risks, Cao Chong likes to take risks, but Cao Chong likes to take those risks that he is sure of, and Zhuge Liang's strategy is too risky.

It's so big that it's like you're going to die.

"If the prince loses the military power, the family will not feel that the prince is a threat, the prince has no military power, and the Chang'an Hou has military power, the prince feels that at this time the family will regard who is the biggest threat The family will regard Chang'an Hou as the biggest threat, and then the prince will be a fisherman and reap the profits, isn't it happy" Hurry Cao Chong shook his head.

"Fast, of course, is fast, but there must also be a chance to be fast, if the family beats the water dogs, what if they still have to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots after knowing that they are not a threat" "Even if the prince has no military power in his hands when he arrives, if the family wants to attack the prince, it will definitely hurt the muscles and bones for a while, and the family will not do loss-making business."

"The family will not trade at a loss, so what about my second brother" "Marquis of Chang'an" Cao Chong nodded.

"My second brother Ben Hou knows it very well, he has always done things absolutely, but he will not let Ben Hou take the opportunity to reap the benefits again, Kong Ming, your strategy is too risky, let's change it."

"If you want to get big benefits, you have to take big risks."

To some extent, Zhuge Liang's words are indeed fine.

But Cao Chong didn't like to die.

However, Zhuge Liang's words gave Cao Chong a lot of inspiration.

Maybe if you change your own ideas, you can really make the family compete with the Hou Sandpiper of Chang'an, and then you will benefit from the fisherman.

However, there is still some work to be done.

After discussing with these again, I finally gave Cao Chong several good suggestions.

The first is the 60,000-strong army of Wang Shuang, Yang Xiu, and Jiang Wei in the Wu clan.

The Wu clan is close to Chang'an, if he can cross Chang'an, reach Luoyang, and then turn it into a whole to the vicinity of Yecheng, then Cao Chong has a lot of troops in his hands.

However, the operation of this plan is not easy, and Cao Chong is still considering it.

Another suggestion is to take a long detour.

Cao Chong really wanted to delay for a while, and then let himself have enough time to prepare.

But this delay does not have to be idle, in fact, Cao Chong can pass through many places, such as the places where those families are located.

Yecheng is just a place for these families to display their ambitions, and as for the foundation, it is still in the place where their families are located.

Now if the family wants to relax their vigilance, then the option of taking 3,000 people to Yecheng at the beginning will naturally not be realized.

But 3,000 people could not be brought, so Cao Chong decided to bring 5,000 people.

Of course, there were only 500 people who came to Yecheng in the end, and these 500 people were carefully selected by themselves.

There is a reason why the number of people has dropped so much from 5,000 to 500.

In the process of Cao Chong's detour, 5,000 people will walk around the places where these families live.

These 5,000 people are Cao Chong's elite, and they are absolutely obedient to Cao Chong.

I believe that these 4,500 people will give themselves a lot of surprises.

If the family found that their relatives were all in Cao Chong's hands, that kind of scene would be very beautiful.

This move is a salary draw from the bottom of the kettle, and it is Cao Chong's bargaining chip to add an extra salary to himself.

Now that these preparations are ready, Cao Chong will also go to select the five thousand people who will go with him.

According to Cao Chong's plan, the 5,000 people were mainly composed of three aspects.

The first aspect is heavy armor.

Cao Chong will take away a hundred heavy armor, with this hundred heavy armor, it is enough to protect Cao Chong, and safety is guaranteed first.

In addition, there are 4,900 people, of whom 4,500 are soldiers in the army, and they are extremely brave, and these people are all pawns to be scattered in the rear of the family.

This is the second aspect.

As for the other 400 people, Cao Chong brought some special troops.

Maybe it can't be said to be a class. huoyào has such great power in this world, this era may only meet the power of black huoyào, but Cao Chong, who has seen the weapons of Yuánzidàn missiles in later generations, will naturally not be satisfied with this.

For the use of huoyào, black huoyào is just the most basic.

Cao Chong established three academies, one of which was the Military Industry Institute for the purpose of researching weapons.

Different from the Gewu Academy, the Agricultural College and the Military Industry Academy were both reminded by Cao Chong's inspiration.

The reminder of this inspiration is the fire system.

The fire system evolved from the fire gun, and the fire gun only existed in the Song Dynasty, and the fire system only appeared in the Yuan Dynasty.

In other words, Cao Chong brought the fire system to this world more than a thousand years in advance.

The assault rifle uses a thick bamboo barrel as the body, and the inside is filled with huoyào and ziyi, "a mixture of iron sand, broken porcelain pieces, stones, huoyào, etc., which is actually a reflection dànyào, and the assault rifle can be understood as sàndànqing in a sense".

The front of the assault gun was a thick bamboo tube; The part of the middle section that swells is the huoyào chamber, with a little fire hole on the outer wall; The back section is a hand-held wooden stick.

When firing, he uses a wooden stick on the ground, holds the pipe body with one hand, and ignites the fire with the other, making a loud noise, shooting out gravel or projectiles, and the unburned huoyào gas is sprayed out of the muzzle of the gun for two or three meters.

Because the thrust of the huoyào used in the production technology at that time was quite limited, and the firing range was about 100 meters, its shooting accuracy and range were difficult to control, and because the barrel was a natural bamboo tube, after firing a few times, the bamboo at the end of the barrel would become very fragile because of the burning of the huoyào, and even directly lead to the explosion, so the real combat effect of the assault gun was not very ideal.

The principle of fire control is similar to that of the assault gun, except that the bamboo pipe is turned into a metal tube.

It can be said that the emergence of the fire system has brought the development of thermal weapons into a new stage.

It's a Pandora's box.

But Cao Chong had no choice, and now it was a critical moment.

Moreover, instead of being ridiculed by foreigners in later generations for making huoyào just to set off firecrackers, Cao Chong felt that he had an obligation to let this thing appear in this era.

When the time comes, they will be beaten with this fire and call them mothers What are the names of these four hundred?

How is it called the Divine Machine Battalion:
