Damn it, Cao Cao looked normal after he had this question. Anyone who sees this situation will feel guilty. Believe it or not, as long as Liu Bei shows his intention to let them follow him, at least half of this group of people will run away directly, and some of them will
It's quite possible that he could just run away with his men!
Although a centurion may only be able to take away a dozen or so well-connected officers, most of Cao Cao's middle and lower-level officers were gone. It would be strange if Cao Cao was not abolished.
You must know that the centurions on Cao Cao's side basically didn't know Cao Cao, but they knew how to greet Liu Bei. Cao Cao expressed that he had the urge to withdraw all these centurions.
Cao Cao can believe that if Liu Bei suddenly gets mad at this moment and orders these centurions to beat him, even if Cao Cao yells that he is Cao Cao, the group of people will still beat him. He doesn't even know the middle-level generals in his army.
Himself, and getting to know Liu Bei, this is the rhythm that must be completed, okay!
Later, Cao Cao specially brought Liu Bei to Liu Bei's camp. As a result, Liu Bei, not to mention centurions, could basically call all the lower-level uncles by name, and even some of them looked like they had been there five or six years earlier.
Veterans in the army can all call them by name.
When Cao Cao discovered this situation, he simply shuddered. His eyes were not blind. When Liu Bei called out the names of the middle-level and lower-level officers, the will shown by those people made even Cao Cao feel terrible.
It was obvious that these people had no idea that Liu Bei actually knew them. When Liu Bei called their names, the expressions on these people's faces were enough to be called "a scholar will die for his confidant."
However, Liu Bei didn't have any special expression. He had long been accustomed to the expressions displayed by these soldiers. He had not lived in vain these years. In the past, he would still be puzzled by this. Now, he has understood that he can call
What do the names of these people mean to this group of people?
He, Liu Bei, can guarantee that if anyone leads some people to rebel, as long as he, Liu Bei, stands up and uses just one sentence, he can deprive the other party of their military power. He is the god in the impression of these people. He who has achieved this level,
To be honest, I have nothing to fear anymore.
These people are willing to do anything for him Liu Bei. Perhaps the soldiers of other princes are fighting to survive and to become generals and princes, but his Liu Bei's soldiers, not to mention others, all his soldiers who can name them are all
It can be called fighting for Liu Bei, because these people know that Liu Bei still remembers them.
This is a very terrifying fact. It is precisely based on this fact that Liu Bei is now confident that he is not afraid of anyone, because for him, to this extent, basically no one in the world can shake his will.
After hearing this, Chen Xi couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth twice, and looked at Xun Yu opposite him. It was obvious that Cao Cao was also telling Xun Yu about this matter, and Xun Yu moved his eyebrows from time to time, which could clearly indicate the other person's mood.
, Xun Yu also found it unbelievable.
[Haha, there was no Jiuxi Incident. The person Cao Cao relied on the most was indeed Xun Wenruo. Hahaha, I guess Cao Cao is already thinking about scolding his mother now. But what Xuande Gong thinks, even Cao Cao’s centurion can recognize him.
.] Chen Xi thought curiously.
Chen Xi generally didn't care about Liu Bei, so he opened his mouth and asked, "Mr. Xuande, how come you know so many generals under Cao Gong?"
"When I enter the military camp, I always recognize people first. It is a habit I have developed in the past. Meng De has a total of seventy or eighty commanders and seventy-eight hundred centurions. It has been almost a month. I know dozens of them every day.
It's very easy." Liu Bei said matter-of-factly, not seeing any problem at all.
The corner of Chen Xi's mouth twitched twice. Liu Bei was really good at being trained by him to have this instinct, but you have already recognized Cao Cao, which is a bit too much.
"Don't you think that Duke Cao doesn't know the soldiers under his command? You can name each one of them. What does Duke Cao think? Er, Duke Xuande, do you know Sun Bofu's men?" Chen Xi sent a message to him speechlessly.
Liu Bei.
Liu Bei was stunned, and then he understood why Cao Cao suddenly stopped talking to him before. His behavior seemed a bit like he was trying to seize military power, but he still answered, "We all know him."
On the other side, Cao Cao and Xun Yu were also talking about this matter. Cao Cao was a little suspicious, but Xun Yu was completely shocked.
"My lord, do you mean that Lieutenant Liu can know all the officers above Du Bo?" Xun Yu said in disbelief.
"I'm afraid so." Cao Cao sent a message to Xun Yu.
"You should try your best to get to know all the uncles." Xun Yu opened his mouth, and finally he said this to Cao Cao.
"How is this possible..." Cao Cao said these words without thinking through his mind, but he could say such words conditionedly, which is enough to show the difficulty of this matter.
Xun Yu curled his lips and glanced at Liu Bei. Cao Cao didn't say anything. He was really angry today. However, as soon as Xun Yu reminded him, Cao Cao was also going to do this. Isn't it just to recognize people? First, set a small goal, eight hundred
All the uncles and elders recognized him.
Seeing Cao Cao's eyes move away from Xun Yu, Chen Xi knew that Cao Cao and Xun Yu had almost communicated. Although he didn't know what idea Xun Yu gave Cao Cao, Chen Xi felt that this time he probably scared Xun Yu enough.
From this point of view alone, it is estimated that Xun Yu knew what this meant better than Cao Cao.
"It seems that there is nothing left. Xun Wenruo is indeed the best among men. Cao Sikong's problem has been solved. Tomorrow, Xuande Gong, if you continue to take him around the camp, you can stimulate him." Chen Xi said with a smile.
After Chen Xi sent the message to Liu Bei, Liu Bei still could not reply, but Xun Yu sent the message to Chen Xi.
"How many low-level officers does Liu Taiwei know?" Xun Yu sent a message to Chen Xi.
"Eighteen thousand," Chen Xi said to Xun Yu as if he was talking nonsense. This figure sounds scary, but in fact Liu Bei may have really remembered so many people over the years.
This is also an important reason why Liu Bei is becoming more and more confident now, because for Liu Bei, he himself is a collection of military power.
"Four hundred thousand soldiers?"
With this check and balance, I’m afraid it’s really difficult for people to feel reassured by your abilities!”
"Hahaha..." Chen Xi just laughed, but did not answer because he didn't know what to say. Is Xun Yu right? He and Liu Bei obviously share the same goals, right?
"You taught the lieutenant how to hold military power in this way, right? And I haven't heard of Liu Xuande doing anything in these years. I think he did this one thing, just this one thing!" Xun Yu
He looked at Chen Xi with respect.
"Well, it was difficult for Mr. Xuande to remember people at first, and he often remembered them incorrectly and confusedly. Later, he saw more people and gradually gained experience." Chen Xi sent a message to Xun Yu, "I have a rough idea about this matter.
It is completely different from the content of the book. My original advice to Xuande Gong was to get to know all the village chiefs under his command, but he completely exceeded my expectations."
"Yes, eight thousand people..." Xun Yu smacked his tongue. This is not a small number. Liu Bei can remember each one accurately. It is already very scary. What's more important is that the lower-level officers will change from time to time.
.
Xun Yu has fully understood the meaning of this. It can be said that as long as Liu Bei himself does not seek death, with Liu Bei's current background, they have no way to defeat them. Fortunately, there is no need to defeat them. The Emperor of Han is still alive, still alive!
"Haha, actually I admire him a lot. Generally speaking, people admire people who do things they can't do." Chen Xi said with a smile. Xun Yu smiled when he heard this and planned to go back and teach the emperor to do the same.
Dry.
[It is not easy to know all the officials with more than 600 shi. The emperor cannot leave the palace easily, and the officials with 600 shi are distributed in various states and counties. How about one thousand shi...] Xun Yu was a little worried about whether Liu Xie could
Recognize so many officials.
Chen Xi looked away when he saw Xun Yu walking away. However, if he knew what Xun Yu was thinking, he would definitely curl his lips. The ratio of officials to civilians in the Han Dynasty is clearly recorded in history. It was more than 7,900 and less than 8,000.
One, that is to say, eight thousand people support one official.
Of course, this does not count subordinates, only officials. In other words, the difficulty of identifying all officials in the Han Dynasty, not counting the travel distance, is actually easier than Liu Bei identifying all the uncles, because the Han Dynasty
The total number of officials is almost 7,000...
But having said that, this is why Xun Yu was confused. Civil servants are not as easy to fool as those soldiers who were born in the country. The more they know, the more complicated their thoughts become. And in this era, if you can be an official, as the emperor, you can know everything.
A name actually doesn't mean much.
While Chen Xi was grilling the roast mutton, Xia Houyuan ran over with a secret letter and handed it to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao knew Cao Ang's secret letter as soon as he saw the envelope. He calculated the time and thought it was about the same. He was about to open it and read the contents. However, when he took the letter in his hand, he felt a little uneasy, so he reached out and handed the envelope to Xun Yu.
"Wen Ruo, take a look at Chang'an's secret letter." Cao Cao handed the letter to Xun Yu and said with a smile.
Xun Yu had no doubts. Before, he was planning for the emperor. Unexpectedly, Chang'an's secret letter had already arrived. Naturally, in Xun Yu's mind, everything went according to his plan. The emperor finally showed
Show your heroic side.
So after receiving Cao Cao's secret letter, Xun Yu opened the secret letter with a smile, and while opening it, he said to Liu Bei and Chen Xi, "Taiwei, Chen Hou, the news from Chang'an has come, and we won't hide it from you. Recently, we
These people have cooperated very well, and perhaps they will continue to cooperate in the future. Only when we work together can the Han Dynasty be the Han Dynasty."
Liu Bei looked at Xun Yu in confusion, while Chen Xi scratched his head and made some guesses. As for Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Zhou Yu, Liu Ye and other truly wise men, they all sat upright, waiting for the final result.
They know very well that this letter will greatly affect subsequent strategies. Even if Jia Xu has many plans for Chang'an, if this letter really leads to the result predicted by Xun Yu, then even they will not
I had to suppress it first.
However, just as Xun Yu opened the envelope with a smile, and then opened the folded secret letter, and glanced at it briefly, the originally smiling face froze instantly, and all the blood on his face instantly disappeared, and he pinched the letter paper
His knuckles turned blue and white.
"This is impossible!" Xun Yu directly pressed the secret letter on several cases. His Adam's apple rose and fell. Xun Yu obviously swallowed a mouthful of blood. He didn't want others to see his obvious anger, but this
Everyone's attention was on him for a moment, how could he not see it.
"..." Chen Xi looked at Xun Yu expressionlessly. Although he didn't know the content, combined with Xun Yu's expression and Li You's hint, he already understood what happened in Chang'an. Just looking at Xun Yu's general
After forcibly swallowing a mouthful of blood, his eyes dimmed and he knew that Xun Yu's faith might have collapsed this time.
"Spit it out, spit it out!" Although Cao Cao didn't know what happened, he rushed up when he saw this scene and hit Xun Yu on the back.
Xun Yu, who had originally swallowed the blood by force, was struck by Cao Cao, and a large mouthful of blood spurted out on several cases, causing the entire secret letter to be soaked with blood.
"Emperor...ah..." Xun Yu lost most of his energy at this moment, and Cao Cao was so panicked that he didn't know what to do.
"Hurry up and notify Dr. Hua and Dr. Zhang." Chen Xi sighed and said, "Everyone, please be ready to return. It seems that something happened in Chang'an."
At this time, Cao Cao, who was at a loss while supporting Xun Yu, finally saw the secret letter on the case, and immediately smiled sadly, "This kind of emperor, this kind of emperor, the Han Dynasty is unfortunate!"
Chen Xi stood up and walked over slowly, picked up the letter that had been stained with Xun Yu's blood, took a look at it, and sighed, "Emperor? Mr. Xuande, do you want to read it?"
"What did he do again?" Liu Bei looked at Chen Xi with a cold and ruthless voice. Just watching Xun Yu spit out a mouthful of blood and roared out that kind of resentful and angry voice, Liu Bei knew that Liu Bei
Xie made a mistake again.
"Cao Gong led Yongliang soldiers to the north in order to return power to the emperor. At this time, the emperor's ceremonial guard passed through Yongliang, so that he could regain the emperor's power according to people's expectations. Unfortunately, the emperor chose to invite the southern Xiongnu to go south and use the barbarians as barbarians.
Beijun and Xiyuan." Chen Xi said helplessly.
"Now, the Southern Xiongnu are marching south, plundering Bingzhou. Before this letter was delivered, the Southern Xiongnu were already close to Sili. Cao Zixiu led all the descendants of the Cao family who were over 16 years old, and the only 20,000 people left in Chang'an.
The old, weak, sick and disabled went to the Sili border to stop the Southern Xiongnu from going south." Chen Xi sighed and said, not to mention anything else, Cao Ang's magnanimity was indeed not bad.
"Bastard!" Liu Bei's expression became increasingly uglier as he listened to Chen Xi's narration. Finally, he slapped several cases and stood up angrily, "Is he crazy?"
"Mr. Xuande, be careful what you say." Chen Xi's eyelids twitched. Liu Bei had always had a good temper and did have due respect for the emperor. This time he could roar such words in front of everyone, and he was furious.
