Chapter 3231 The Spreading Front
Looking at the pope who was emitting light purple starlight and his eyes became like stars, Mrs. Ding realized that the little wife brought by Yuan Tan was actually a person with internal energy left.
"The internal energy is separated from the body?" Mrs. Ding looked at the Pope with her eyes lit up. She hadn't seen a woman's internal energy leave the body for so many years. If Si Niang was considered to be, she had seen it.
"No, it's breaking the boundary." Wenshi said to Mrs. Ding with a smile, "Because just came from the atrium, Wen Hou and General Dian put a lot of pressure on their sister, so they could only enter the breaking boundary state because their sister's intuition was too sensitive, and it would be very uncomfortable if they were normal."
Mrs. Ding was shocked. She originally thought that the Pope was a person with internal energy left, but she didn't expect that she would be a powerful person with a breaking power. Mrs. Ding knew very well about the difference between the two. If the former could be found in hundreds of thousands, then the latter would be in a million.
"It's much better." The Pope moved his fingers and entered the state of breaking the boundary, and the intuition that he was about to explode became much better.
"If I had known this was the case, I wouldn't have changed my dress for you. You should wear military uniforms when you look back." Wen reached out to tidy up the dress for the Pope, then looked at Ding, and bowed slightly and said, "Please ask my uncle to lead the way."
Ding looked up and down at Wen and the Pope, nodded, and said nothing. She was wondering why Yuan Tan brought a wife and a concubine to visit. Even if he was visiting the door, it would be better to bring a wife. Now Ding understands it.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Ding couldn't help but look up at Wen. It was not easy for her to suppress such a concubine. Even if the concubine looked dazed, her strength was not a joke. Those who could reach the peak in any field would not be fools. Most of them were as clear as a mirror, but they didn't want to spend time on these trivial matters.
But looking at Wen's behavior now, we know that the two are indeed quite familiar with each other, not pretending in front of others. Even Mrs. Ding has to convince herself. Think about it, if there is such a great god in Cao Cao's backyard, Mrs. Ding will have a headache just by handling it, at least it will not be as easy and freehand as Wen's current.
"Is your concubine a master of breaking the world?" Cao Cao was blown up by the pope's purple air, and he waited until the pope restrained his internal energy, with an expression of seeing a ghost.
"Well, it's indeed a breakthrough. I've spoiled at home before, and I'll be furious if I'm suppressed by others. I'd like to forgive me." Yuan Tan smiled and revealed this matter. What did the Pope come out to do? Isn't it just to make the scene? The old Yuan family is okay in other aspects, but there are not many masters. Even if there are a batch of Slavic masters now, it's not enough.
The pope's appearance reminded Yuan Tan, I can take the pope out to make face, and I don't need the pope to go to the battlefield. I just need to show that the Yuan family has such a front. Naturally, the battle will be solved by elite legions, and the pope does not need to go to the battlefield at all.
Cao Cao nodded without comment, and the others looked at Yuan Tan with more caution. No matter how he, a woman, came from breaking the boundaries, if Yuan Tan can bring him by his side, he must be dependent on the Yuan family, and Yuan Tan is also bold, and even such a strong man dares to push him.
In an instant, a group of generals became more respectful to Yuan Tan. Even a very arrogant young man like Wei Yan showed respect to Yuan Tan at this moment. After all, he was a breakthrough just now, and he also had a certain identity as Yuan Tan's little wife.
Yuan Tan did not do anything extra, but the guards he brought and the one wife and concubine he followed had already surprised Cao Cao, and he also clearly realized how many cards the Yuan family has now, and even some original plans needed to be adjusted considerably.
At the banquet, Cao Cao did not talk about the alliance, but talked about the changes over the past 20 years and the differences between the present and the past. Yuan Tan also agreed with him, and both sides could be said to be happy with the host and the host.
At the banquet arranged by Ding's family in the backyard, the Pope received more attention than Wen's family. He had seen too many similar things like the mistress of the Yuan family, and women broke the boundaries and other things. This was the first time in the world. Of course, there were many people watching.
Ding did not blame too much for this, etiquette, or something. When the Pope showed his strength to break through the boundaries, Ding quickly ignored it. Even if a woman really wanted to go to the battlefield and marching, there would be men following her. After all, the power is due to her own strength, which is truly powerful.
After drinking and having enough food and food, Xun Chen was finally able to contact the civil officials under Cao Cao. It is obvious that even though the two sides did not mention a word about alliance at the banquet, they could enjoy the guests and hosts, which shows that the two sides were basically the same in terms of path and belief, which means that they had the meaning of sitting down to talk.
"Uncle, I've been together for many years." Xun You, who had no sense of existence, bowed to Xun Chen. Xun Chen glanced at Xun You, "Sit down, just don't dig a hole for your uncle and me."
"Brother, is it okay in the north?" Xun Yu entered one after another, smiled at Xun You who was already sitting beside him and pretended to be dead, and then said to Xun Chen.
"Fortunately, is the fragrance on your body too heavy? Are you not afraid of being poisoned to death?" Xun Chen said with anger and pointed to the front position.
"Is it heavy? I don't feel that it's obvious. I probably entered the Zhilan room and didn't smell the fragrance for a long time." Xun Yu said calmly, not feeling dissatisfied because of Xun Chen's words. They were all winners who fought in the Xun family for many years and finally decided.
Incense is something like incense that can prevent insects, calm the mind, and calm the mind. There are many benefits. In this era, everyone basically has a sachet, but it is a scent like Xun Yu who plays incense to the point where he retaliates.
Fortunately, after Hua Tuo's care, it is much more normal now. Although it still has a significant fragrance compared to normal people, compared with that of the past, at least it is too scary.
By the way, Pompianus has fallen in love with the incense of the Han Dynasty recently because this thing can calm people down and also prevent mosquitoes. Therefore, Pompianus ordered more spices than Xun Yu back then to incense, and the whole house was filled with smoke...
I guess if this is the case now, Pompianus will poison himself to death in a few years.
"Use less incense, this kind of thing is poisonous." Xun Chen glanced at Xun Yu and said. Among his clan brothers, Xun Yu was the strongest, so strong that he was even afraid of him. However, now Xun Chen no longer cares whether he is afraid of it, because he has seen a stronger existence.
"Okay." Xun Yu didn't say much, just nodded, then closed his eyes to rest. Soon Chen Qun and Cheng Yu were all in one after another. After the five of them sat in front of him, they all looked at the opposite side without saying much.
"How long does it take for you to come from Beigui?" Xun Chen glanced at Xun Yu and said. He was not afraid of many people. When he had a thinking template, he could basically guess what these people thought.
"It's just the beginning. If you want to make a clear time..." Xun Yu estimated carefully that it would not make much sense to say falsehood in front of his clan brothers.
"Can Beigui be solved within five years?" Xun Chen asked directly.
"If it goes well, it's barely possible." Xun Yu sighed and said, "The war between the two sides is completely different from the kind used to be. There is basically no decisive game in this kind of war. It can only be transferred to our hands little by little. There are not many cards in the Kushan hand, and we have to use it one by one to win steadily."
Xun Chen nodded when he heard this. Xun Yu's words did not fill up water at all, which means that it was really difficult for Beigui to deal with. In this case, I wonder if Xun Yu was thinking about other things.
"After pacifying Beigui, you can develop locally. Yuanfeng's dynasty and the next dynasty can basically give up." Chen Qun may have felt Xun Chen's vision and spoke out bluntly.
"Then what are your future development directions?" Xun Chen looked at Xun Yu and asked.
In fact, there is not much difference in strength and size between the two sides. If it is really more than potential, Cao Cao still has a clear advantage. In terms of generals and civil and military affairs, Cao Cao's advantages are too obvious, but this is just this era.
Xun Chen can accept an alliance with Cao Cao, but Cao Cao must have a development direction. If there is no such thing, even if the Cao family has potential and combat effectiveness now, the future will sooner or later stagnate, and the Yuan family has clear plans for the future.
Even though Xu You's plan has a rough side, there is no doubt about Xu You's intelligence. With the blessing of the gold mine, Xu You is also in the sequence that can challenge the strongest.
Therefore, the plan to move westward by Xu You early was very important. However, the city of Sizhao can be the ancestral land, not as a support. If the Yuan family really wants to make a difference in the future and achieve the empire, moving westward can be said to be the last choice of the Yuan family.
After taking down the entire Eastern and Northern Europe, building high walls and accumulating grain, the old Yuan family has some hope of taking the last step. No matter how slim this hope is, at least this is indeed a path, and what about Cao Cao's development direction?
Xun Chen went south personally to wake up the Cao family, Sizhao City, and the Indochina Peninsula, where there is no support, and he can only rely on hard power to maintain the national heritage.
If Cao Cao took over Beigui, he would at least get the Indus River Basin and some of the upper reaches of the Ganges River. These places are much smaller than the Kushans today, but with the Han Dynasty's farming ability, it is not impossible to build up a Kushan population.
It can be said that when Cao Cao attacked Beigui, he gnawed the hardest bones, and he would definitely get the largest piece of meat in the end. This part of the territory is enough to support Cao Cao to support an empire with a population of 30 to 40 million and easy to defend but difficult to attack.
As long as Cao Cao is not stupid, no one in the north will be able to make an invasion by then. The only thing that needs defense is the south. However, what is there in the south? The buffer zone of Chen, Xun and Sima, the grain production area in the middle and lower reaches of the Ganges River. If you really want to say, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and there is no enemy in the surrounding area.
It can be said that the stability of the foundation industry is that Yuan and Sun are completely unable to compare with Cao Cao. There may even be a collapse of the Han Dynasty. Cao, who is squatting here, is still alive. After all, there is no shortage of food here. As long as you are not stupid enough to collect heavy taxes, you can maintain it even if you are overly ill.
This is a place where Yuan and Sun clans could not match them at all. Cao Cao's future fiefdom and the advantages of the dangerous mountains and rivers were too obvious.
But then? If Cao Cao's vassal state is here, how should we continue to expand, or to put it further, Cao Cao may have ambition, and Cao Ang may have, but what about their descendants? Will they still have animosity in this environment?
You should know that when Yuan Tan obtained the two fifty-year strategies made by Xu You, he was ready to face the Roman Empire. As for Cao Cao, after Cao Cao took this side, where could he expand? No more, the Cao family had reached that step and there was no direction for expansion.
"After you fight the Kushan period, there is no direction to expand. You are surrounded by the fiefdom of the Han Dynasty. In the Yuanfeng Dynasty and the next dynasty, you can't do it. At least forty years, what else can you do when it is over?" Xun Chen looked at Xun Yu and Cheng Yu said with great majesty.
At this moment, Cheng Yu's expression was very ugly. Cheng Yu had not noticed this before, but now he has to admit that Xun Chen's statement is very correct. After fighting the Kushan period, the Cao family's power had no direction to expand.
"Think about it carefully. You have been out for too short. You only focus on being strong, but you have never thought about what to do after you become stronger." Xun Chen said solemnly as he looked at the four people present.
"You are here to explain this?" Xun Yu squinted his eyes and looked at Xun Chen, "You should be enemies with Rome at that time. It seems that you want to pull us into the water?"
Xun Yu would not be fooled by Xun Chen easily. The wise men of the Xun family have been fighting for more than ten years, and no one knows who else.
"It's not that we are enemies of Rome, but that place is too close to Rome and too far from the Central Plains, so we have no choice but to rely on ourselves." Xun Chen sat upright and looked at Xun Yu and said, his eyes as calm as water.
Xun Chen and Xu You knew early in the morning that Rome would definitely find fault with the Yuan family, and what's worse is that the current situation is that the Yuan family has no way to deal with Rome. It can be said that the appearance of Huangfu Song is already the greatest support for the Han Dynasty. Even afterwards, it is unlikely that the two sides will have a super-large-scale conflict between the Han Dynasty and Rome.
However, this is for the Han Dynasty. For the Yuan family, it is that the Central Plains are too far away and Rome is too close. It is not the Yuan family's hobby to be low and small. So in this way, only one of them chose to take revenge by a gentleman, which is not too late for ten years.
After I survived this wave, I will settle the accounts with you, Rome, and before that, I will spend ten years or even more time connecting and pulling people on the boat.
