Chapter 132 The slaughter will fight!(1/2)
Letting the aristocratic family get titles and military positions has the excuse of raising private soldiers openly. The difference between a family with a general and a family without a general is very different.
When a general raises private soldiers, he will be more blatant when he raises private soldiers, and naturally he will have more people. Those aristocratic families without generals are still a little afraid. Like the Duan family, Cao Chong was given a charge of raising private soldiers and intending to rebel, and was directly dismissed by Cao Chong.
These aristocratic families are not justified, so they naturally dare not raise too many private soldiers.
And the upper limit of the family of officials who are generals and schools has been infinitely increased.
It can be said that the only bondage of the aristocratic family was released by Cao Chong.
Guo Xiao’s concerns are not unreasonable, but... these aristocratic families must wait until the future.
Once Cao Chong swallowed all the soldiers of the aristocratic families in the coalition army, these aristocratic families will immediately be greatly damaged. What's the use of someone becoming a general?
The aristocratic family fell directly!
Cao Chong never thought of letting go of the aristocratic families in Liangzhou.
Cao Chong had an idea in his heart, so he naturally wouldn't say it out loud.
After a long discussion, all parties also discussed a constitution, with Cao Chong's bait in front of him. Even Cao Shuo, a great scholar, was ready to fight at this time, wishing that his family would come to make achievements and earn a general's position to return.
Even if the great scholars are like this, others are even more so.
Cao Chong looked at these people saluting him, looking at the departing representatives of the aristocratic family, but no other expressions appeared on his face.
Just as Cao Chong was about to leave, Linghu Mei, who was covered with a veil, walked up one step, gave Cao Chong a light bow, and said a gentle voice.
"June, I wonder if I can have a banquet with you tonight?"
Cao Chong turned his head to look at Linghumei. Linghumei had a graceful figure, quite beautiful, and her curves were even more attractive. Being invited by a beauty was something that a normal man would not refuse. Linghumei invited many men to have a banquet, but in the end she fell drunk under her pomegranate skirt. This time, she naturally felt that it was.
However, what surprised Linghu Mei was that although the Marquis of Luoyang looked at her body up and down, he did not speak. Instead, he lowered his head, as if he was thinking about whether he should go.
This made Linghu Mei quite angry. After all, her beauty was already famous in Dunhuang, Jiuquan and Dunhuang. Even the Qiang people, Zero Cang, were jealous of her. I didn't expect that although this Luoyang Marquis looked like a teenager, she was even more mature than Zero Cang.
Linghu Mei was secretly shocked below.
"Miss Linghu, it's inconvenient for me tonight. I'll stop another day. And the Qiang and Hu are coming recently. I'm busy with all my life and I really don't have the energy to go to a banquet. Please forgive me."
Linghu Mei twitched the corners of her mouth, but she nodded gently, feeling much more disappointed.
She didn't expect that one day her beauty would not make men moved. Ling Humei stared at Cao Chong's beautiful face, and seemed a little unwilling to accept it, but Shi Shiran walked down.
Seeing Linghumei walk out of the lobby, Cao Chong gently curled his lips. Linghumei's appearance is naturally not bad, but it is naturally impossible for Cao Chong to fall in love with Linghumei's appearance alone.
Not to mention that there is a woman in her own family who is so powerful that she is much better than Linghu Mei in terms of appearance, figure or temperament.
With this beautiful wife, Cao Chong is having sex with a woman who obviously has some intentions for him?
Although Cao Chong was not afraid of being played with by Linghumei, he had no time to play tricks with her, so Cao Chong directly rejected Linghumei.
After everyone left the lobby, Cao Chong looked at Guo Xiao and said, "Ask, you have to go to the Duyezhe quickly to build a military camp for food, accommodation and training for 150,000 people, and it must be completed within two days."
Regarding this task, Guo Xiao nodded, his eyes were filled with anxiety.
The construction of a military camp that can provide food, accommodation and training for 150,000 people is naturally not small, but don’t forget that after Cao Chong was conquering the Jia family, destroying the Jia family, and taking over the two families of the Cao family and Zuwan Zhang family in Wuwei, he had tens of thousands of slaves. It was not a matter of failure to build a military camp that provides food, accommodation and training for 150,000 people.
Hearing Guo Xiao’s words, Cao Chong nodded and then said to Guo Xiao.
"When you go out, you will call Hao Zhao and Jiang Wei over to me."
Guo Xiao knew that Cao Chong had other arrangements, but as a counselor, he knew what he should know and what he shouldn't know. Therefore, Guo Xiao didn't ask anything, bowed to Cao Chong and walked out of the lobby.
Not long after, Hao Zhao and Jiang Wei, wearing armor, appeared in front of Cao Chong.
"I wonder if the Lord asked me to come, but have some arrangements?"
Of course there are arrangements, isn’t this nonsense?
Cao Chong complained in his heart, and his eyes first fixed on Jiang Wei.
"Bojo, don't you know if you have fought a war?"
Jiang Wei is in his early twenties and is still a young man. Cao Chong still has to ask some things first.
"Your Majesty, although Jiang Wei has not brought many soldiers, Tianshui County is not a place of peace. The Qiang people often cause rebellion. The war is not a novice."
After hearing Jiang Wei's words, Cao Chong nodded softly.
"Okay, Bejo is indeed a young hero."
"Jiang Wei is nothing but a young bird. How dare he be called a young hero by Junhou?"
Cao Chong waved his hand and said, "Don't talk first, I'll ask you another question. Have you learned something with the military advisor Zhuge Liang these days?"
When Cao Chong asked so bluntly, Jiang Wei was stunned for a moment, and then said: "You are the teacher, the teacher is unparalleled in wisdom, and every word makes Jiang Wei gain something. However, when Jun Hou asked this, Jiang Wei didn't know what he had learned."
I don’t know what I learned, or I can say I learned a little bit of everything.
Cao Chong lowered his head and knocked the table with his hand, looked up at Jiang Wei, and said, "Do you know how to arrange troops?"
Jiang Wei turned his head to look at Hao Zhao, and then said in a low voice: "The last general only understands the arrangement of troops. It is far from General Hao and the teacher."
Cao Chong waved his hand and said, "That's what you can do."
"Um...."
Cao Chong thought for a while and said to Jiang Wei: "Since I know how to arrange troops, I have a task to hand over to you now. I don't know if you are willing to accept this task."
Hearing that there was a task, Jiang Wei quickly took a step forward and spit out the four words "Mo Jiang" directly, but Jiang Wei had only had time to say the two words "Mo Jiang" and was stopped by Cao Chong.
"Don't promise so quickly. I'm here to remind you that your mission is not simple and extremely dangerous. If you are a little surprised, it will end up dead. In this way, will you still dare to take on this mission?"
Jiang Wei thought for a moment and finally nodded heavily.
"June even wants Jiang Wei to go up to the mountain of swords and fall into the sea of fire, Jiang Wei will not blink."
Sure enough, it’s better for young people. How could Zhuge Liang say such things to himself?
"Okay, it's true that this marquis values."
Cao Chong stepped forward and patted Jiang Wei on the shoulder, but did not hand over the task to Jiang Wei immediately, but said to Jiang Wei: "After you this mission, I will tell you that you will give me delicious food and drinks now, so that you can't lose yourself."
Jiang Wei was originally looking forward to seeing what the task Cao Chong gave him was, but he didn't expect Cao Chong to say it directly.
It feels like reading a book suddenly out of context, it's very uncomfortable...
However, Jiang Wei resisted the urge to send a blade to Cao Chong and took a step back.
At this time, Cao Chong fixed his eyes on Hao Zhao.
Hao Zhao has been following him since the beginning, and the reason why he has not been valued by Cao Chong until now is not that Cao Chong does not value him, but that there are indeed not many places to use him.
Hao Zhao's main ability lies in defending the city, not in attack. In recent years, Cao Chong's attacks have far exceeded those of defense.
"General Hao, I have only summoned you this time. Don't you think I am biased?"
Hao Zhao quickly shook his head and said, "If there were no Lords and Marquis, Hao Zhao would be just a centurion. How could he blame the Lords and Marquis for being partial? Moreover, the Lords and Marquis have never neglected the last general. Hao Zhao saw the importance of the last general."
Cao Chong nodded and said with some emotion: "Yes, before I knew it, the general has followed me for three or four years."
When Hao Zhao heard Cao Chong's words, he also showed emotion.
Back then, he was just a centurion, and Cao Chong was just a son of Sikong who had little power.
But after four years of changes, I changed from a centurion to a general, and the boy back then has now become a powerful marquis of Luoyang. Time is really a magical thing.
"Yes, it seems like nothing has passed in four years."
Looking at Hao Zhao's sigh, Cao Chong curled his lips and calmed his mind a little. Cao Chong looked at Hao Zhao and said, "Stop talking about these things. This marquis asked the general to come here at this time, but there is something to say."
Hao Zhao took a step back and bowed to Cao Chong and said, "Judge has given me some instructions, please tell me."
Cao Chong nodded slightly and said, "The general also knows that Qiang and Hu are attacking. The Qiang and Hu are definitely not a small number. Even if their weapons are simple, they should not be underestimated. Although the walls of Guzang are wide, they are far inferior to Yecheng. Not to mention Yecheng, even the walls of Luoyang City are better than Guzang's city walls. I'll ask you here, if I want you to defend against the 100,000 Qiang and Hu and guard for ten days, how many soldiers do you want?"
Defending the city has always been Hao Zhao's strength.
Hearing Cao Chong's words, Hao Zhao was silent for a while, and then said, "If you only need to guard for ten days, you only need to give me five thousand people, but you must prepare the turmeric oil and roll wood and rocks."
Five thousand to one hundred thousand, and one has to stay for ten days. It is probably only Hao Zhao dared to say this.
If it were someone else, Cao Chong would never believe what he said. You should know that when the number of people reaches a certain number, the qualitative change will be caused by quantitative change. Five thousand people have to resist the enemy like a tide and have to guard for ten days. That is almost impossible to accomplish.
But this person is Hao Zhao, the most powerful person in the Three Kingdoms defending the city, and even made Zhuge Liang's several attacks in later generations return in a defeat.
Cao Chong naturally believed Hao Zhao's words, but Guzang City had his own team of people, not only his own family, but also people he cared about.
Moreover, whether Guzang is safe directly affects whether Cao Chong himself is safe.
Therefore, Cao Chong added a sentence after Hao Zhao finished speaking.
"The general is indeed brave, but five thousand people. I think it's too few. I will give you eight thousand elite soldiers and three thousand slaves for the general to drive."
Giving Hao Zhao more troops, it would be difficult for Cao Chong to deal with Qiang and Hu directly in front of him. Eight thousand elite soldiers and three thousand slaves were used as cannon fodder when necessary. According to Hao Zhao's ability to defend the city, it should be foolproof.
"promise!"
Looking at Hao Zhaoyingnuo, Cao Chong nodded, and then he summoned Zhou Buyi, who was also the closest person he was.
................
In the area where Xianbei in Mobei and Hexi is active, a group of Qiang and Hu are now breaking into.
No, specifically, it is not a group, but a group of Qiang and Hu people. The continuous Qiang and Hu people are rivers, but it is more like a jumping ocean.
