Many people will be surprised by Lao Cao's laughter, because it is hard to imagine that he is so weak, bah, short, um, tiny...forget it, that's the general meaning anyway, almost as loud as a bell, with a very loud voice.
It's probably comparable to Mr. San's.
It's natural to think about it. He is short and has been in the military for a long time. If his voice sounded like that, even if he cut his finger and he would meow like crazy, he would have been beaten to death with a stick.
Cao Cao likes to laugh when he is happy, and he also likes to laugh when he is scared, but when he laughs, he may not necessarily be laughing in his heart. It is just that this kind of laughter can be used when needed to delay
Secondly, time can make Cao Cao appear confident, and also prevent the soldiers and generals around Cao Cao from panicking.
The most important thing is that there must be a compliment next to it, otherwise without such a sentence, the taste will be a little wrong, just like tuna sashimi has become colon sashimi.
Cao Cao was laughing at that moment.
The sound is like a loud bell.
"Oh hahahaha..."
The reason why Cao Cao laughed was that he had received news that Chang Xi had rebelled.
Some of Chang Xi's rebellion was unexpected, and some were planned.
In order to defend Xiapi, Man Chong colluded with the Chen family and mobilized local defense forces to resist the Jiangdong Army's attack. It was definitely impossible to rely on lip service, and he had to come up with something more serious to intimidate.
.In addition, Chen Gui is old, Chen Deng is dead, and Chen Ying is not in Xiapi, so only the third eldest son of the Chen family, Chen Ke, is left.
Perhaps Chen Deng is so good that Chen Deng often makes the decision. All matters in the Chen family can be settled after Chen Gui and Chen Deng discuss it. Then Chen Deng
After his death, Chen Gui became old, and the heavy burden suddenly fell on Chen Ke, who had not accumulated much experience before...
When Chen Deng was still alive, the mistress was always happy, eating, drinking, playing and sleeping. If the sky fell, his father would hold him up, and if the ground sank, his eldest brother would hold him up. If there was any problem, he would ask his father or his eldest brother.
, and then you can get a simple and appropriate way to deal with it in the blink of an eye, so why do you need to worry about it?
As for self-growth, there is no rush anyway, there are so many tomorrows, and then tomorrow comes tomorrow, my father is old, my eldest brother is dead, and all kinds of surging things hit my face all at once, and my little face turns pale.
Originally, Chen Ke's plan was to guard the Chen family's legacy anyway, without asking for high-ranking officials or generous salaries. He just wanted to preserve the Chen family's legacy handed over to him by his father and brother. Even if his mission was accomplished, Chen Ke didn't care much about what happened next.
Whether Pi belongs to Cao Cao or Sun Quan, whoever can benefit the Chen family will be the one the Chen family will turn to.
Chen Ke naturally couldn't do such a calculation as well as Chen Deng, and he was quickly seen through in front of Man Chong. When Chen Deng deceived Tao Qian, Liu Bei and others, he simply bought it
He is the type who lets others count money for him. Even shutting out Liu Bei and shutting the city out, he can still say it so fresh and refined, making people burst into tears and moved inexplicably. But when it comes to Chen Ke...
Therefore, Man Chong went directly to Chen Ke and pretended that Chang Xi had "rebellion"...
If Chen Ke was an ordinary fool, he might say who is Chang Xi? Is this pig a traitor and doing something stupid to me? He continues to eat and drink without a care. This will make Man Chong helpless.
However, Chen Ke is a smart person, but not very smart, which leads to Chen Ke inevitably falling into the trap planned by Man Chong.
Chen Ke has desires, and his biggest need is to preserve the Chen family's foundation in Xiapi.
So for Jiangdong Army, if Sun Quan can really attack the city and negotiate good terms with Chen, it is very possible for Chen Ke to sell Man Chong backhand, just like Chen sold Tao Qian and later Liu Bei.
Same.
As long as there is a good price, who is selling it?
Man Chong also knew this, so he blocked the opening as soon as he came up.
As a result of Chang Xi's vote for Sun Quan, if this is true, Xiapi became an isolated place. Under the enemy from both sides, the value of the Chen family in Xiapi decreased, and it suddenly fell from a seller's market to a buyer's market.
It's like although the official news says that everything is stable and prices have not changed, in fact Chen Ke feels that everyone is stuck in the community and can't get out. What hasn't changed is the general environment and the average. And this Xiapi
There is only one retail store in the community, which sells tomatoes at one price a day.
Then of course I was interviewed by Man Chong...
In addition, Jiangdong soldiers were constantly arresting people in Guangling County and moving to Jiangdong. This was equivalent to the last straw in Chen Ke's heart...
As for Chang Xi, just like his name, he has a wild boar mentality.
For a wild boar, there is nothing more comfortable than taking a bath in his own mud pit. But when he suddenly heard that Cao Cao was thinking about his little piglet, he naturally suppressed his anger for a while, and then he was full of pampering.
They sent personnel to reprimand Chang Xi, saying that for the fall of Guangling, Chang Xi would be jointly and severally responsible. Soon after, people from the Chen family went to the East China Sea to find out whether Chang Xi was really treasonous, which immediately shocked Chang Xi who was hiding in the mud pit.
shock!
It felt like he and Sun Quan were flirting with each other, and the stories that had to be told between the two were discovered!
Well, in fact, it was not Zang Ba who Sun Quan contacted, but Chang Xi. After all, it is easier to contact someone who has brains than to coax someone who has no brains.
Just like two yellow-skinned children give birth to a dark-skinned child, the normal thinking is that we should find ways to make up the relationship? But some people think that it is easy to have children? What's wrong with giving birth to a black-skinned child? Isn't it also a child? No.
Isn’t it enough to be the next one, or the next one with yellow skin? This is discriminating against the clan! This is bullying the boxer! Do you still have some tolerance? Do you still remember the vow you made to love me for the rest of your life?
?This is the naked violence in the Cao family!
So Chang Xi became furious, trembling with anger, and felt that the world owed him. Only by being sweet-talking, being extremely gentle and promising countless small rights, could he warm his bullied and abused heart.
The heart of domestic violence.
Of course, it is unclear whether Chang Xi’s rebellious behavior prompted Lao Cao to humiliate him quickly.
Anyway, when classmate Lao Cao heard the news, not only was he not surprised or nervous, but he burst into laughter and glanced at classmate Zang Ba beside him with his focused eyes. The meaning was self-evident.
Look, this is your buddy, this is your bestie.
"Wow ha ha ha ha……"
Classmate Lao Cao laughed happily, but classmate Zang Ba was quite embarrassed.
On one side, we are best friends, ah, brothers, let’s just say it, at least in name, we have robbed the yellow scarf thief together and occupied the top of the mountain, but on the other side, things are too fucked up and I can’t stop shouting.
Zang Ba put aside his headache for the moment, while Sun Quan on the other side was drinking.
Sun Quan likes to drink.
His favorite thing is to drink wine from the so-called celebrities, and then make these guys who are usually sanctimonious stagger around one by one. His image will be greatly ruined, and only then will Sun Quan feel happy.
I told you all to pretend like that!
On the other hand, just like some leaders in later generations, Sun Quan did not trust these people, and then naturally felt that these people did not trust him, so he was willing to completely let go in front of him only during banquets.
, drink until you are good, drink until you are drunk, drink until you are unconscious, then you can just barely call it a heart-to-heart relationship, and you can treat it as one of your own.
The leader doesn't drink, but he likes to drink.
But Sun Quan was not in the mood to drink today.
Just before he was about to leave for the front, an urgent message was delivered to Sun Quan.
Some people believe that knowledge is used to seek officialdom and wealth. If knowledge cannot bring these things, no one will learn knowledge. Some even think that the production relations in the farming society of the Han Dynasty were already very advanced.
, not that it is stagnant, but in reality?
Regardless of whether people who have this understanding have correct views and crooked buttocks, just talking about the Jiangdong gentry, they think so. The knowledge they possess is to obtain wealth and status. If Sun Quan cannot give it to them
With corresponding wealth and status, they will use this knowledge to coerce, intimidate, or even secretly sabotage.
At the same time, in Jiangdong, due to disputes over land and the ownership of production relations, the disputes between the Sun family, local powerful people, and the Yue people in the mountains have become extremely acute. However, these Jiangdong people who have knowledge can still be superior.
They point fingers and say that these are minor issues and that Sun Quan is making a big deal out of a molehill, or they simply say that this is a misunderstanding in Sun Quan's cognition.
It's Sun Quan's problem, these Jiangdong people have no problem.
To put it simply, everyone else is bullshit and only these people are the kings of understanding.
In the military tent late at night, Sun Quan was sitting alone behind the desk. Holding in his hand was the military report that had been sent in a hurry. This military report was stuck just before he was about to leave. It was so perfect.
Sun Quan would not believe it if it was not calculated accurately by someone.
South Vietnamese rebellion!
Some time ago, there was a sign saying that South Vietnam was peaceful and nothing happened. Now that he is sending troops, there will be a rebellion immediately. The so-called reason for the rebellion is even more ridiculous. It is said that Vietnamese people come to the market to trade.
A dispute broke out, which led to a fight and then a rebellion.
Seeing such urgent reports, Sun Quan's face turned blue and white. Sun Quan knew what was going on, but these guys in Jiangdong went too far...
Qin Bo lit sandalwood on the side, and then secretly glanced at Sun Quan.
Qin Bo is Sun Quan's recently promoted close minister.
Lu Yi stayed in Wu County, while Qin Bo was taken with him by Sun Quan.
Sun Quan was a self-taught master of balance. He gave Lu Yi a lot of authority. Of course, he was also afraid that if Lu Yi changed sides, it would have disastrous consequences, so Sun Quan specially found Qin Bo to balance it.
Lu Yi’s authority, just in case.
Qin Bo came closer to Sun Quan, took out a small bamboo tube from his sleeve, and whispered: "My lord... Zhu Xiumu sent someone to deliver a letter... Just in case, I didn't follow the usual rules."
Instead, it was delivered to the minister’s home. I did not dare to dispose of it without authorization. I also asked the lord to see it in person..."
Sun Quan frowned and reached out to take the letter. After looking at the lacquer seal, he opened it with a knife and took out the letter inside. He unfolded it and read it, and his face became more and more gloomy.
Just like cultivating Qin Bolai to balance Lu Yi, Sun Quan immediately planned to cultivate Zhu Huan to balance Zhu Zhi, win over the Lu family, and then use the Zhang family to balance the Gu family, because the Zhang family was not smart and had many pigtails, and the Gu family
Yong Mo, Sun Quan once said, "Gu Gong is sitting there, making people unhappy."
At present, Zhu Huan's strength is not great, and Zhu Huan himself is from Wu County. It is hard for Sun Quan to say how Zhu Huan will develop in the future. It can be said that Zhu Huan himself wants to use Sun Quan to light up the lintel and get what he needs.
Sun Quan held the piece of letter paper in his hand, and his expression flickered. He seemed to have a breath that was held in his chest and could not breathe out. Qin Bo on the side did not dare to look directly, and shrank his head to the side, seeming to feel the pattern of the mat on the ground.
It was very interesting, so I stared intently to hide my uneasiness.
After a while, Sun Quan let out a long sigh and said, "Guess what Zhu Xiumu said in this letter?"
"Your Majesty..." Qin Bo was stunned for a moment and then said quickly, "How dare you make any assumptions..."
"If you are asked to speak, just speak! What are you afraid of?" Sun Quan glared at Qin Bo.
Qin Bo blinked twice, "I... speculate... could it be... something about South Vietnam?"
Sun Quan nodded slightly.
In his letter, Zhu Huan also described the current South Vietnamese rebellion. However, unlike the urgent military report reported before, Zhu Huan said that the South Vietnamese rebellion was very sudden, and the place where the rebellion broke out was originally the South Vietnamese and Jiangdong people.
The place was so intricate that Zhu Huan was unable to determine for a while whether it was exactly what the military report said. He just felt that the development was too rapid and a little abnormal.
And Zhu Huan said that he wanted to suppress it, but firstly, there was insufficient military rations, and secondly, if he really wanted to mobilize, he would need Sun Quan's authorization...
"Lord... then..." Qin Bo asked cautiously, "Now..."
Sun Quan closed his eyes and controlled his emotions as much as possible. He relied on his knowledge and collusion to form a huge chain of interests, and used this to threaten his Jiangdong.
people!
Learn martial arts, bring goods to the emperor's family, and then control the emperor's family. This is the source of motivation for these people to study hard. Is it wrong to do this? Are there not many people in the world who do this? What will happen if there is one more?
Sun Quan was silent for a long time and then said to Qin Bo: "What do you think should be done?"
Qin Bo knew that Sun Quan had sacrificed a lot for this personal expedition and had been preparing for a long time. He was definitely not willing to let it go. However, the Shanyue Rebellion was indeed a headache and had to be dealt with, otherwise the rear would not be able to do so.
It is not stable, and the front cannot fight in an orderly manner.
Qin Bo boldly said: "My lord, I think...Qingxu is the focus at the moment. Regarding the Shanyue rebellion...just send a partial army..."
Sun Quan stood up and walked around the central tent with his hands behind his back.
He expected that such a situation might occur, but what he didn't expect was that it would happen so early!
The so-called Qingxu War is no longer a simple battle, but has become a bargaining chip in the game between Sun Quan and the Jiangdong nobles!
The ones pressing up are soldiers, food and wages!
What you gain is more voice now and control over this piece of land in the future!
It's the first month of the year, and the temperature in Jiangdong is recovering faster than in the north, so basically, spring plowing should start now. Therefore, the most important point of Jiangdong's nobles' opposition to sending troops is here!
For Sun Quan, the key point is also here...
As for the battle between Qing and Xu, the victory or defeat is actually not important anymore.
Sun Quan suspected that Gu Yong and others had seen through his plan.
Why do we need to fight in person?
Only by recruiting yourself can we ensure the population!
Get all the population!
Those looted from Guangling, and then from Xiapi or even deeper areas, and this time finally captured from the Jiangdong nobles, all of these are population! Only Sun Quan
Only through personal conquest can we ensure that the Sun family will eventually eat the majority of these people!
As for whether Qingxu can be taken down...
Haha, whoever believes it is a fool.
Taking advantage of such a big name as the Battle of Qingxu, on the one hand, it strengthened itself, and on the other hand, it weakened the Jiangdong gentry. It stuck its neck and made the Jiangdong gentry spit out some civilians to work with the army, and then allocated these military rations. All these
Once everything is in Sun Quan's hands, don't even think about going back!
The Jiangdong nobles originally wanted to resist, but Sun Quan used the name of "Qing Jun to welcome the Emperor" to suppress it. After Mrs. Wu's reminder, he no longer mentioned Jiangdong or Jiangdong, but put out the
With a posture of being willing to do anything for Liu Xie, he even announced many of the unfair treatments Liu Xie received in Xu County, and held a ceremony to fast for five days in person to show his loyalty to the Han Dynasty.
, and also succeeded in making the Jiangdong nobles' faces turn red and unable to even let out a fart.
Being irresistible on the surface and unable to raise objections does not mean that there is no action behind the scenes.
Now, the counterattack is coming.
And so fast.
Sun Quan's original plan was to go out and wander around, and if the battle went smoothly, then he would have a fight. If it didn't go well, he would use the excuse that there was a rebellion in the rear, withdraw his troops and go home, and maybe even frame a few...
As a result, before Sun Quan could frame him, the people there rebelled first in order to respect him.
Sun Quan even knew that these guys must have wiped out all their hands!
However, since we are planning to frame the case, should we clear it up now...
What else matters?
Sun Quan suddenly turned around, looked at Qin Bo, and then smiled slightly. He took a step forward very cordially and took Qin Bo's hand, "How do you do, sir?"
"My lord's kindness to me is as great as a mountain or a sea! Even if I die ten thousand times, I can't repay my lord's kindness!" Qin Bo said unequivocally.
"Good!" Sun Quan pulled Qin Bo and said, "I will take the tiger talisman from you... You must send it to Ruxukou quickly and cooperate with Zhu Xiumu to quell Shanyue's rebellion!"
"minister……"
Before Qin Bo could respond, Sun Quan used his strength to pull him to his side and said in a very low voice, "I don't need you to go into battle to kill the enemy... but you have to find out for me... who Shanyue is treasonous with."
