Chapter 460: Acting in Servitude

Chapter 460: Acting in Servitude
Donglai, Penglai.

Cao Cao inspected the camps and climbed the mountain to look at the sea.

It happened to be a mirage, and more than 10,000 Cao troops stationed around the area fled out of the camp.

Cao Cao stood at the highest point, with a green umbrella behind him, the sea breeze blowing, and the flags fluttering.

Cao Cao raised his head and looked at the clouds in the sky, where there was a large army in training.

I couldn't see the face clearly, I could only vaguely make out the clothes and the flag.

This army was holding spears and practicing changes in military formations very skillfully, which made some of the accompanying military officers change their expressions drastically.

"!"

Cai Qiang's eyes widened. He managed to see some traces of Qingzhou soldiers in the Tian army.

It is not about dispersing the Qingzhou soldiers who are now everywhere, but the Qingzhou soldiers who were defeated and captured and easily controlled and assimilated by the Grand Sima.

But he reacted quickly, covering his mouth tightly with both hands, for fear of shouting out words that would cost him his head on the spot.

Watching the gun array push forward and practice back and forth.

Cao Cao was puzzled and asked Cheng Yu beside him: "Zhongde, is there a war in heaven?"

"There is an emperor in heaven, so there must be a court, officials, soldiers and civilians, and I think there must be external enemies."

Cheng Yu analyzed the situation and said, "What I am confused about is why the Heavenly Army also practiced battle formations in this way, instead of flying formations?"

Cao Zhang at the side also spoke up: "Yes, the heavenly soldiers did not grow wings."

He had seen some patterns that showed angels with wings on their backs. They could fly and quickly deliver imperial decrees.

The mirage had a fixed perspective, and after about two quarters of an hour, the image gradually became blurred, but one could still see the training celestial army divided into teams of a hundred men, evacuating the training ground in an orderly manner.

Cao Cao thought about it, and then said to his attendants in all seriousness: "Today I am passing by Penglai. Heaven has shown me favor by allowing me to see the heavenly soldiers training. Could it be that Heaven has sent me out to sea?"

With tens of thousands of witnesses together, it cannot be fake.

Cao Zhang frowned and thought, he felt that destiny should not be so easy to understand.

Cheng Yu said: "The Grand Marshal has some magical skills. Some people say that he is a god incarnate. Now, even if this is not true, it is not far off. My lord, you have received the mandate of heaven. Why not send an envoy to Guanzhong to consult the Grand Marshal?"

Seeing that no one around him objected, Cheng Yu went on to say, "Now that you have eliminated the tyrants and implemented virtuous policies in Qingzhou, the people are all happy. With the great virtue of the Grand Marshal, I believe they will also be able to abandon their old prejudices."

Cao's army is helpless as it has come to this point.

But when I took this road, I found that it was really comfortable.

How much money can be squeezed out of the system of forced labor?
The daughters born to a group of poor people are also skinny, while the wives and daughters of the rich and powerful families are plump and beautiful.

I also understand the reason why Da Sima expanded so quickly, which is that the other party only eats meat and does not gnaw on rotten bones.

Now that we have everything we need and the land has been divided equally, the people are easily satisfied and all are willing to follow our lead.

The army also received more land, wealth and women, and its cohesion increased day by day.

As long as Liu Yi is defeated and the claw reaching out from Liaodong is cut off, we can stabilize civil affairs, resume production, and then build more warships and train the navy.

Originally, the core members did not agree with the idea of ​​going out to sea to search for immortals, but today they were fortunate to see this scene in Penglai, and they realized how vast the world is.

Cheng Yu proposed to send an envoy to Guanzhong, and no one around him objected for a while.

Cao Cao felt at peace but also lonely, so he looked at Cao Zhang. Cao Pi really died of illness, and now Cao Zhang had lost his biggest obstacle.

Cao Zhang's position became increasingly consolidated, and his original confident and enthusiastic qualities became more prominent.

Seeing Cao Cao looking at him, Cao Zhang said according to his own understanding: "Father, in the past, Emperor Gaozu killed the white snake to start a business, which was the Red Emperor's son killing the White Emperor's son. Later, Wang Mang rebelled, and I heard that it was the White Emperor's son who rebelled against the Han Dynasty for revenge. Now that the Grand Marshal has swept across the Western Province and regained the momentum of the pre-Qin period, the Han Dynasty's imperial lineage will not be destroyed. So I think I should listen to Mr. Zhongde and send an envoy to Guanzhong to find out what the Grand Marshal is thinking."

After hearing this, Cao Cao nodded slowly, but he was still suspicious about Black Bear's background.

A lot of information has shown that Hei Xiong is the descendant of Zisong and has nothing to do with Ji Liu.

We are re-governing knowledge in our current position. Due to differences in status, vision and experience, most of the views formed by the books we read as teenagers and young adults have been overturned, and our views are also being reshaped.

Therefore, Cao Cao became more and more convinced that ancient history must be very exciting, and the various magical stories were definitely not false legends.

Compared with immortality and peeping into the real world, what does this Qingzhou foundation mean?
If a person cannot understand the truth throughout his life, what is the difference between him and floating in the air?

After experiencing this strange mirage, Cao Cao's romantic side began to dominate his personality. He nodded and said, "Indeed, we should send an envoy to Guanzhong to pay a visit to the Grand Marshal. As far as punishing the Hu people and pacifying the Xia people is concerned, he is worthy of my sending an envoy to pay a visit and have a look."

What's more, the black bear touched Xu Du and snatched away his two women.

One of He Jin's daughters-in-law was given to Gan Ning, and one of them, Lady Du, was given to Guan Yu.

Guan Yu and Gan Ning did not treat them badly and also raised the children they brought with them.

Strictly speaking, if Guan Yu and Gan Ning had not changed their attitudes, the Cao family bloodline could have been passed on.

When a new dynasty is established in the future, these two bloodlines will not lose their wealth and prosperity, and there is even a possibility that they will return to their original surnames and revive the Cao family.

As long as it is defeated with a sword on the battlefield, there is basically no hidden danger.

For example, there is nothing to hate about Cao Cao. We just couldn't defeat him, and he never engaged in any conspiracy.

Seeing Cao Cao announce this in public, more than a hundred civil and military officials around him all bowed and said, "Ming Gong is wise and intelligent."

Seeing people's hearts like this, Cao Cao smiled and raised his voice in the wind: "My family has been practicing Taoism for generations, and I know that the Taoism of Huang Lao is of great benefit to the people. However, in the official career and on the battlefield, I often have to do things against my will, and there are many things I have no choice but to do. Now I practice Taoism and kill the tyrants in Qingzhou. Only then do I realize that the way of heaven is vast and human power is insignificant."

After a long while, Cao Cao said with deep emotion: "If not for my own family, but for the long-term stability of Qingzhou officials, soldiers and civilians, I will also send an envoy to Guanzhong to pay a visit to the Grand Marshal to seek a way to long-term peace."

"Your Excellency is kind and benevolent."

Cheng Yu turned around, bowed and shouted, leading more than a hundred people to bow again: "Ming Gong is benevolent and virtuous!"

Cao Cao laughed even more when he saw this, his smile was full of innocence, and he waved his hand and said, "No need to be like this, gentlemen. Please stand up quickly."

Then he looked around and asked, "Who among you is willing to go to Guanzhong as an envoy?"

If he wasn't careful, Gan Ning would intercept him and chop him into two pieces, and send his head to Guanzhong.

Everyone looked at each other, and one of the strangers stood up and bowed: "Mingsir, the Grand Marshal has been living in Liang State since he was young. He once called himself Sun Qian and pretended to be from the Sun family of Jiangdong. This may not be a coincidence. The Grand Marshal may have an old relationship with the Sun family of Liang State. It is appropriate to use the Sun family as an envoy."

"Oh? Is there anyone from the Sun family who serves in our army?"

The man replied: "There is a man named Sun Hui, who is the chief officer of the central army of my army."

"This person can be the deputy envoy, but who should be the principal envoy?"

Cao Cao asked again, the envoy wants to entrust you with a confidential matter, but the risk is very great, it would be best if you can do it voluntarily.

The Grand Marshal had to express his opinion that there were indeed magical things overseas, so he should just go to sea and there was no need to linger.
