Section 24 Program
Section 24 Plan
Gougu was furious. He grabbed his beard in anger, his eyes flashed with a cold light, and said in a faint tone: "General, I, the Huns, have come sincerely to reconcile with the Han Dynasty this time. My Shanyu has come in person. This is a big face. Unexpectedly, the Han Dynasty regards me as a beggar, and he is only half of the Han people. This is a bit unruly."
Cao Chong burst into laughter: "What are the rules you are talking about?"
He suppressed his anger and smiled faintly and said, "For more than two hundred years, when did the Emperor pay tribute? The Emperor did not give him more than ten times? The Emperor was hit by the disaster. When did the Emperor give him many rewards, he was several times higher than the people of the Emperor. This is why the Emperor has a great demeanor. The general did this, but he was a little petty."
Cao Chong laughed and looked down upon him. He picked up the teapot and filled himself with water, then asked a little more, and then asked lightly: "Youxian King, if your own son is hungry with someone else's son and you don't have enough food in your hand, should you give it to your son first, or to someone else's son first?"
To be humble, the Huns were not a problem of giving food to other people's sons, but a problem of snatching the things from other people's sons first. He was stunned for a moment and said with a forced smile: "Didn't the Han people take the lead in benevolence and righteousness? In the past, they also gave priority to our supply."
"That's them, not me." Cao Chong smiled, stretched out his finger and pointed at his chest: "I don't have that knowledge, and I can't understand why those Confucian scholars who have read the saints have ruined their minds. Regardless of their own people, I will feed you first. I only know that every grain of food was poured out by my great men's people with sweat. Now that they have a disaster, I naturally have to protect them first. As for those great demeanor, hehe, I believe that demeanor is not rewarded."
He stood up, opened his arms and turned around, his wide sleeves spread like two battle flags, and his whole body exuded a strong sense of confidence. He looked down and smiled: "My great man has enough temperament to absorb knowledge as far as the Great Qin, and of course there is enough measure to absorb the surrounding races. I can accept that the Qiang people can integrate into my great Han and become the people of my great Han. Of course, we can also accept that the Huns become the people of my great Han. Jin Riyi, a famous minister of the Wu Emperor Dynasty, is the prince of your Xiongnu. The right wise king, who is like a wise man, can't he pursue his predecessors with your talents?"
Gebei's face turned pale, his hand holding the teacup shook, and he splashed out half a cup of tea. He was staring at Cao Chong's bright eyes, but he didn't notice it for a moment. Cao Chong's heart was too big. He was actually threatening the Huns to become the people of the Han Han. He was not only satisfied with the Huns being vassals of the Han Han, but also completely swallowing the Huns.
This young man with a kind-looking face is too cruel and too arrogant. We Huns are great and born people, how can we become part of the cowardly Han people? Grudge the teeth and say nothing, but the cold light shot out in our eyes.
Cao Chong saw the fierceness of the ruthlessness of the dying, but he didn't care. He smiled and said, "Youxian King went back and told you that if he could imitate the Qiang people and become the people of my Han Han, I promise that he would get the same treatment as the Qiang people. Otherwise, you should exchange cattle, sheep, fur, and war horses. By the way, you entrusted my Han's kindness to occupy the Bingzhou of my Han as a ranch. But I didn't see a single war horse that should have been tributed in the past ten years. In total, you should owe us 20,000 or 30,000 yuan? I guess you can't take it out at once. I'll give you three years to pay off all the owed owes in the previous ten years. Otherwise, Bingzhou would not allow you to stay there."
Gebei was furious and almost jumped up and pointed at Cao Chong and cursed, but he forced himself to hold it back and just laughed in a gloomy way: "General, you're a bit too bullying. Do you really have nowhere to go when I am a Hun?"
"Youxian King, what are you doing? Are you threatening me?" Cao Chong lowered his face in dissatisfaction, "I just talked to you because of Mr. Cai's face, and because of the fact that Adiguai brothers are my personal guards and cavalry marquis, so I have a brief explanation. What is your like? Even if there is anything, you should discuss it with your Shanyu before talking about it? Besides, I just suggest that if you, the Huns, will you still be your vassal if you don't want to, but the vassal can only enjoy the treatment of the vassal, and don't expect to be compared with my great Han people."
He smiled and continued, "Of course, if you Huns still have the blood to compete for territory with the Xianbei people, we would not object. Maybe we can support you some materials. Of course, these are not for nothing."
Goubei was angry by his arrogance, but he reminded him again, "Yes, this matter is too big, not something that he, a right wise king, can only make decisions. Perhaps, even the Shanyu cannot make decisions. This is a major event related to the life and death of the Huns. He smiled awkwardly: "Gobei is vulgar and rude, so please let the general be willing to accept it. General, since the Han Dynasty has achieved good harvest, can it...hehehe..."
Cao Chong smiled as he looked at Neng Neng's humbleness, waved his hand indifferently, and issued an order to expel him: "Youxian King should hurry up and go back and settle the accounts. It will not be too late for us to talk about it later. We Han people are loyal and have always been sincere to our friends."
I had no choice but to leave and quickly go back to report the latest developments to Shanyu. This matter is too important and cannot be delayed.
Xun Yun kept listening, drinking tea gulply, watching Cao Chong coldly, forcing Jue Bei to retreat. Seeing Jue Bei left with anger, he smiled: "Cang Shu, this Right King is not simple, he can bear this kind of energy. He is also a Goujian-like figure. If he succeeds to the throne in the future, this Huns will be the disaster of my great man again."
Cao Chong smiled and looked at him: "What do you mean, are you leaving him in Xu County?"
Xun Yun smiled slightly, and savored the tea in his mouth for a little thought. After a while, he swallowed the tea in his mouth and smiled: "You must still remember your uncle and father-in-law. If the Prime Minister had not let him go to Xuzhou, how could there be so many things? I think this is not easy to go. If he had become Shanyu, he had tens of thousands of cavalry and the vast territory of the northern border, I think he would not be able to settle down."
Cao Chong smiled, turned his fingers to the teacup on the table, and chuckled softly, "Brother-in-law, what do you think, what do you think Huchuquan?"
Xun Yun thought about it, shook his head and smiled, "I'm not very familiar with this person, but I heard that this person has a irritable personality and doesn't use his brain very much. He is an incompetent person."
"Then do you think he is more stable in Meiji, or is he more stable in humbleness?" Cao Chong looked at Xun Yun with a smile.
Xun Yun frowned slightly, thought carefully and said, "It's better to be more at peace when going to Huchuquan. However, if Huchuquan makes trouble, the matter will not be too big. If Huchuquan makes trouble, the matter will not be small. However, Huchuquan, the Chanyu, is here, as the Right King, is afraid that he will not be able to control those people. If he wants to live a peaceful life, he can only obey you, not to mention that his two sons are under your account." He smiled and continued, "The premise is that my great man must always have enough strength to suppress his ambitions, otherwise you will leave a big hidden danger."
Cao Chong smiled, he picked up the teacup and sent it to his mouth, gently blew the tea leaves floating on the tea soup, pondered for a while, took a sip of the tea, and said with some melancholy: "Yes, as long as there is nothing wrong with the big man, how can these barbarians hurt me? I am afraid that my big man will be in chaos first, killing each other and blood flowing into a river, just like an invincible hero in the world, competing with his left hand with his right hand, or cutting flesh to feed people. In the end, I am afraid that a child can easily kill him. Do I do all this, but I want to keep the big man strong and not give those greedy wild wolves a chance? In fact, it is better to have a few wolves. If the world is peaceful, my big man's blood will be addicted to the wine glass and the beauties' arms. Brother-in-law, you are also both civil and military. Have you ever wanted to fight a few battles?"
"Me?" Xun Yun was stunned for a moment, shook his head repeatedly. He was very conscious. Since Xun Yu took the risk last time, Cao Cao had no such trust in their Xun family. This Tiger General was still obtained because of his sister Wen Qian and Cao Chong. It was too far away for him to lead troops to fight.
"Don't shake your head. A man has never fought a war. He is not a real man." Cao Chong laughed, leaned over and patted Xun Yun's back of his hand and smiled: "When you pass the tension of the first battle formation, you will understand how attractive that passionate feeling is."
"Cang Shu, why do you sound a little warlike?" Xun Yun looked at Cao Chong with a smile and cry, "Although the country is big, war will perish."
"Hahaha..." Cao Chong smiled and then said, "Don't forget, there is also 'Although the world is safe, forgetting the battle will lead to danger'."
Cao Chong did not dare to hesitate. As soon as Xun Yun left, he called Zhang Song. Zhang Song reported to him in detail about the situation of the Xianbei envoy, which was far more than Cao Chong knew from Qubei. Zhang Song told Cao Chong that Bu Dugen had a difficult life. His brother helped Luo Han's son Xue Gui Ni was under Kirby's command. Bu Dugen did not have the upper hand in strength or morality. Although he occupied the royal court, not many people listened to him. He came to the Han Dynasty to ask for marriage, and he did have the purpose of using the Han Dynasty as the backing to suppress Kirby. When he really defeated Kirby, his strength was strong, he might have to repeat it again.
He then suggested that now Bu Dugen requests marriage through Cao Pi's relationship, Cao Chong can also contact Kirby, divide their Xianbei people, and then provoke them to fight within, so that they can kill to the death. The three armies of the Han Dynasty are in charge of the northern border, secretly helping the weak one, which has been exhausting them from living and following in the footsteps of the Huns.
He didn't say anything else, that these three armies were all from Cao Chong. If the Xianbei was destroyed for a day, he could control heavy troops. Although Cao Pi had received support from a noble family, he only had 50,000 troops from Xiahou Dun. Liaodong had been pacified, and he had no reason to control Xiahou Dun's troops. Once Xiahou Dun retreated, Cao Pi could control the most of the troops from Qingxu and those left behind in Liaodong. The total number would not exceed 30,000. Compared with Cao Chong, the disadvantage was obvious.
Cao Chong did not reply to him immediately. Instead, he told Zhang Song about the marriage. Zhang Song thought for a while and laughed: "General, this sentence is relieved. Yes, if you want to marry, you will ask them to send the woman to see what they do. Bu Dugen is probably going to be anxious. This reason is open and they can't even say anything if they want to oppose it. Whoever wants to send the woman to Xianbei will let someone's family come out. Anyway, most of the marriage ties were not real princesses before. The daughters of the royal family had had, and the daughters of the ministers were OK, hahaha..."
Damn, you are too dark. Cao Chong looked at Zhang Song with a smug look and burst out laughing.
After Cao Chong and Zhang Song discussed, they immediately found an opportunity to report the situation to Cao Cao. Cao Cao had already received some news from Guo Yi. Of course, in order to show that they were sincere, the envoys of the Xianbei Province had already spread the news of their request for marriage to many people in Xu County. Cao Cao was quite dissatisfied with the marriage of marriage. Although he had a marriage relationship with many people in order to win people's hearts, he had always regretted it since Sun Kuang's incident, especially Sun Kuang's wife was his younger brother's daughter. The younger brother died early and his daughter ended up in this situation, which really made him feel a little sad. Now seeing Cai Yan like this again, he disapproves of marrying a woman to Xianbei. When he heard Cao Chong's suggestion, he couldn't help laughing and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, just do it like that. However, you mentioned this matter. Go and tell the emperor that I am still the same rule, don't care!"
Cao Chong laughed. Comrade Cao was resting comfortably in Xuanwu Pool. He pushed everything cleanly. He liked to watch the fun behind him and didn't want to make a comeback. This matter was not a big deal. It was more important to see Xun Yu tomorrow. He looked around and took out the prepared comment copy from his arms and handed it to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao took the copy and glanced at it. It was Cao Chong's correct handwritten book: "The draft of the new policy." He did not open it immediately, but placed the copy on a table. His wide palm gently stroked the soft rice paper, slowly narrowed his eyes. He was a little unsure in his old voice, and it seemed empty and far away, erratic: "Cang Shu, this matter...is related to the fate of the Han Dynasty and the fate of my Cao family. On this list, the Han Dynasty will be in chaos, and my Cao family... will be in chaos. Have you thought about it?"
Cao Chong lowered his head. His inscription was his plan to reform the new policy. It not only wanted to abolish the monopoly of Confucianism, but also wanted the emperor to truly implement the three-metric system. In the name of implementing the Huang-Lao Way, he asked the emperor to give up the military power in his hands and the regime to the Taiwei and the Prime Minister. It can be said that except for retaining the emperor's throne, all other rights were basically deprived. He discussed this manuscript with Liu Ba, Pang Tong, Zhang Song and others, and also specifically solicited the opinions of Nanyang prefect Zhuge Liang. In addition to Zhuge Liang's approval, Liu Ba and others retained their opinions. They did not object, but felt that the possibility of the emperor's agreement was extremely low.
For the Cao family, the prime minister is in charge of the people, the Grand Marshal or the General is the first to be responsible for the military. Cao Cao cannot serve as the two positions of General and Prime Minister, and must be given one. Cao Chong can take over as the General, and the military power will not fall into the hands of others. But after he accepts the General, he cannot serve as the Prime Minister. Will the Prime Minister be given to Cao Pi? If he does not give it, it will inevitably benefit outsiders. If he gives it, Cao Chong will be like digging a pit for himself, at least in Cao Cao's opinion. If he wants to inherit Cao Cao's title in the future, he will not be able to avoid Cao Pi, unless he does not want this title and is willing to give it to Cao Pi, which is something Cao Cao doesn't want to see.
Cao Cao sighed, stretched his hand to the reading glasses in the brocade box on the table, turned on the box, pinched the reading glasses in his hand, and was about to put the bridge of his nose, but hesitated again. "Cang Shu, you go to rest first, I... want to think about it again."
"Here." Although Cao Chong was anxious, he did not dare to urge Cao Cao. He had to agree and slowly retreat. Before he went out, he glanced at Cao Cao's back. Cao Cao's back was a little over 60 years old. After all, he was an old man, and even stronger, he could not stop the passing of time. The white hair on his temples was so dazzling under the light that Cao Chong felt a little cruel for a moment.
He returned to his room, Xun Wenqian and Xiao Shuang were sitting silently. They all knew that Cao Chong was going to discuss this plan with Cao Cao. They had also seen this plan and participated in the discussion countless times. Although they felt that it was detailed enough and they were very confident in Cao Chong, at this moment, they were still a little nervous. Seeing that Cao Chong was coming back so soon and his face was not very good, they were shocked and hurriedly came up to support Cao Chong: "What's wrong? Father... disagree?"
Cao Chong was also nervous, his heart was beating violently. He felt that he had made so many preparations, and finally handed over the initiative to Cao Cao. The direction of history may only be this moment the key to whether he could really change. If Cao Cao thought about it and denied his plan in the end, then he might give up on himself and support Cao Pi. His seemingly powerful force may be broken in the blink of an eye. He calculated in his mind that Huang Zhong and Zhang Ren could support him. Man Chong and Le Jin would probably listen to Cao Cao, Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Dun and Cao Ren, all of them were Cao Cao's words. Xiahou said that it was probably just a matter of two people. If you calculate it carefully, he basically had a chance of winning. Yangzhou and Jiaozhou do not have much strength at present. The strongest Jingzhou and Yizhou are now controlled by Cao Cao's people.
In order to gain Cao Cao's trust, was the capital too much? Cao Chong was inexplicably scared.
Looking at Xun Wenqian and Xiaoshuang's caring eyes, he forced a smile: "How could it be? My father knew all these things. He was a little tired of playing today and wanted to take a break before watching." He pinched Xun Wenqian's hand and said: "Besides, this is not the final decision. Don't you have to discuss with your father-in-law tomorrow. Don't worry, there will be no surprises."
Xun Wenqian and Xiaoshuang looked at each other and smiled, "Since that's the case, you should rest early, you have been in a ten-day night, and finally got homework done today. Whether it's done or not, you can rest early." Cao Chong laughed twice, but his voice was a little dry. He hugged the two beauties on the left and right and smiled, "Yes, we have to go to bed earlier today, but whether we should rest early is unsure."
Xun Wenqian smiled and pushed him, pointing at Xiaoshuang and said, "That's true, don't forget that Xiaoshuang's sister is still empty."
"Sister--" Xiaoshuang said shyly, with a layer of blush on her cheeks.
The lamp flower suddenly jumped and exploded with a loud bang.
Late at night, Xun Mansion.
Xun Yu and Xun Yun sat face to face. Xun Yun looked at Xun Yu nervously. He told Xun Yu everything he saw in the Cao Mansion. After Xun Yu heard this, he didn't say anything for a long time. He put down the smile in his hand and thought carefully. Tomorrow, Cao Chong and Cao Cao were coming to the mansion. Cao Chong was here to worship his father-in-law, and Cao Cao was coming, obviously it was not as simple as visiting his family. They must have something to talk about.
So, what big thing is that Cao Chong needed his support so much that he actually proposed to let Xun Yun take charge of military power?
"Changqian, do you want to lead the troops?" Xun Yu's voice was a little tired in excitement, and it sounded a little dry.
Xun Yun was stunned for a moment, smiled bitterly and said, "Father, the Northern Army is all from Cang Shu, and there is no room for other troops. Do you think he will really hand over the military power to my hands?"
Xun Yu smiled and glanced at Xun Yun, nodded and said, "Yes, he will definitely do it."
"Why?" Xun Yun smiled in confusion: "Why is my father so confident in Cang Shu?"
"He can take the navy from his father-in-law Cai Degui and hand it over to Zhou Gongjin. Why can't he hand over some of the military power to yours?" Xun Yu smiled and said, "Don't you see Cang Shu's young age, he has enough self-confidence. Didn't he make you excited just by saying it?"
Xun Yun smiled embarrassedly. He didn't believe that Cao Chong would really give him military power, but it did not mean that he didn't want to lead the troops. What's the point of taking Hu Benlang to the emperor every day? Zhou Yu had been watching the palace gate for several years, and now he suddenly became the governor of the navy. In a few days, he would have to take the navy to participate in the military parade. He could not keep guarding the door. But after thinking about it, he still couldn't figure out which place Cao Chong would arrange for him. Northern Army? Impossible, Eight Pass Commander? Impossible, Bingzhou? It seems to be hanging.
"Father, if you think Cang Shu wants to give me military power, which military power is it?" Xun Yun asked with a smile.
Xun Yu smiled and stroked his beard, picked up the ginseng tea on the table and took a sip, and chuckled softly: "There was a good position that suits you the most. Zhou Gongjin went to become the governor of the navy, and his guard was vacant. You were originally responsible for the imperial guards of the palace and promoted from General Hu Ben to the guards of one of the nine ministers. This is in line with the wishes of the emperor and the prime minister. But since he said he wanted to let you go to the battlefield, it must not be this position. After thinking about it, there is still one captain left for the fifth school of the Northern Army, and it may be the Northern Army. If you want to put it more carefully, it is probably the Shooting Captain or the Infantry Captain."
He paused, narrowed his eyes and continued, "The Northern Army guards the army, which is the emperor's imperial guard. My Xun family is loyal to the emperor. Since he wants to give up this position, he obviously wants to show kindness to the emperor. Hum... Cang Shu, he never does anything to lose money, probably he wants the emperor to make any concessions, and... it may be a concession that the emperor cannot accept at all."
"What the emperor cannot accept?" Xun Yun was shocked.
"The emperor is weak, and what he can rely on is not public opinion? Public opinion is useful, and there is no use. Cang Shu's public opinion is at the lower level, but the public opinion at the lower level does not play much role in the decision-making of the upper level. The emperor relies on the public opinion at the upper level, but the aristocratic family has no military power, so he can only shout twice in the court. When Cang Shu still wants to solve it with a peaceful method, they are still useful. If Cang Shu gets angry, these aristocratic families are just meat on the chopping board." Xun Yu smiled softly.
"No, Cang Shu killed all the aristocratic families. Who will help him govern the world?" Xun Yun said suspiciously.
"Do you think Cang Shu doesn't want to take action because he is worried about these things? Do you know how many reserve talents he has trained over the years? Do you know why he sent those students who have been taught in the mountain village instead of letting them enter the officialdom immediately?" Xun Yu glanced at Xun Yun and said unhappily: "He started to make arrangements eight years ago, but you still don't understand. You are more than thirty miles worse than him."
"Father..." Xun Yun blushed a little when he was said.
"You can't blame you, I just saw it." Xun Yu waved his hand, "If it was as I thought, he started to make arrangements eight years ago when he started printing, this person would have been to heaven, otherwise he would not have been so far-sighted."
"The Kingdom of Heaven?" Xun Yun became even more confused. Where is this? Why did a kingdom of heaven appear again?
