Chapter four hundred and sixty-fifth regret missed
This is Xiao Ziyu's own boast. With his ability, he can definitely assist any prince to dominate the world.
But it's just a matter of time.
It's a pity that even though he has been here for so long, no prince has even thought of him, let alone recruited him.
"It seems like this is God's will!"
Xiao Ziyu looked up to the sky and pretended to sigh.
"Why is this scholar sighing here?"
At this moment, a gentle voice suddenly reached Xiao Ziyu's ears. Xiao Ziyu followed the voice and turned his head to see a "short, black and thick" man. Xiao Ziyu's eyes were swollen.
"It turns out to be Brother Meng De." Xiao Ziyu recognized the Emperor Wu of Wei at a glance.
"Do you know me, scholar?" Cao Cao was a little confused. He was also very unfamiliar with Xiao Ziyu and didn't know who Xiao Ziyu was.
"Haha! Brother Meng De, no one in the world knows that if you fail to assassinate Dong, you will issue a corrective edict and jointly attack Dong."
"Brother Meng De, he is truly worthy of what Mr. Quiet General said, 'a traitor in peacetime and a hero in troubled times.'"
Xiao Ziyu said with a slight smile.
Hearing Xiao Ziyu's compliment, Cao Cao was slightly startled. To be honest, he never thought that Xiao Ziyu would praise him.
In his eyes, Xiao Ziyu should come from a famous family, and the family he comes from should also be among the top.
The reason why he thought this way was because he felt that unique and confident demeanor from Xiao Ziyu.
When he was in Luoyang before, he met several scholars with the same temperament as Xiao Ziyu, and among those scholars, they all came from top aristocratic families.
And many disciples from these aristocratic families often do not think highly of him, and are not even willing to get along with him.
It was also because of this that he was stunned by Xiao Ziyu's praise. Originally, he thought that the other party took back the compliment and made fun of him.
In fact, Cao Cao has not yet converted. With his current reputation, many disciples from aristocratic families have completely changed their views on him.
Even though Cao Cao was born into a family of eunuchs, in the coming troubled times, Cao Cao's previous actions have made many disciples of aristocratic families think highly of him.
This is also the reason why, after the defeat of Dong, when he returned to Chenliu, some disciples from aristocratic families came under his command.
"Mengde, here, where have you been? I'm waiting for you here."
Just when Cao Cao was about to invite Xiao Ziyu, a voice suddenly came from behind him. Cao Cao looked back and saw that it was Yuan Shao calling him.
Suddenly, the words he originally wanted to invite Xiao Ziyu were blocked in his mouth. It wasn't that he didn't want to invite, but that he couldn't. Yuan Shao asked him to come over. There were all the major princes there. It was definitely inappropriate for Xiao Ziyu to go over.
.
Therefore, Cao Cao felt a little regretful. After finally finding a scholar who appreciated him, he certainly had the idea of recruiting him.
You know, now, although he has 20,000 soldiers under his command, he doesn't even have a marching leader.
Not to mention a counselor.
Seeing that many other princes and even some counselors were helping them deal with some things, Cao Cao was also extremely eager.
It's a pity that both the Cao family and the Xiahou family are generals and have no counselors, so I have to feel a little regretful.
So now he finally met someone. Although he didn't know what the other person's abilities were, at least in terms of demeanor, he was no worse than the counselors from aristocratic families he met in the imperial capital before.
"You haven't asked for the scholar's surname yet?"
After nodding towards Yuan Shao, Cao Cao turned around and immediately asked Xiao Ziyu with a smile on his face.
"Nanyang Xiao Ziyu, since Brother Meng De has something to do, let's go ahead. I'll take a walk here first."
"It turns out that it was Brother Ziyu who was summoned by Alliance Leader Yuan, so Mengde had to leave first. I hope I can see Ziyu again in the future."
Cao Cao still had a smile on his face. At the same time, he was also thinking about what kind of aristocratic family in Nanyang was named Xiao.
"Haha! Brother Meng De, we will meet again. When the time comes, don't forget me!"
Xiao Ziyu smiled mysteriously and said with a slightly inexplicable tone.
After Cao Cao left, Xiao Ziyu sighed again: "It's a pity. If you had recruited me just now, then the world from now on will definitely be yours. It's a pity, it's a pity, this is fate."
After watching the Jujube Alliance and meeting Cao Cao, Liu Bei and other princes, Xiao Ziyu had no interest in the rest.
So he left Chenliu on Taxue and set off towards Luoyang.
······
"Luoyang, Luoyang, is indeed the ancient capital of the Nine Dynasties. It is indeed very majestic."
When he came to the outside of Luoyang City, he saw that the city wall of Luoyang was thirty feet high. Xiao Ziyu also sighed with emotion. At the same time, when he came to Luoyang, he made a special trip to Hulao Pass.
The city wall of Hulao Pass is taller than that of Luoyang, reaching more than 80 feet high.
The world of myth is indeed incredible.
It is more than eighty feet high, but it is more than two hundred meters high. Even on earth, there are not many high-rise buildings that can reach more than two hundred meters.
Moreover, Xiao Ziyu also scanned it with his spiritual consciousness and found that the wall thickness of Hulao Pass was at least ten meters thick, or even thicker.
Think about it, the city walls are all made of extremely hard granite. Such a Hulao Pass is indeed very difficult to be destroyed in this world.
Even in this mythical world, the destructive power of those generals is amazing, but it is almost impossible to break through the city wall of Hulao Pass.
Even for Xiao Ziyu, it would take a lot of effort.
Of course Hulao Pass is strong. Although Luoyang City is not as majestic as Hulao Pass, the prosperity of Luoyang City is not comparable to Hulao Pass.
With a sweep of his consciousness, Xiao Ziyu discovered that there were tens of millions of people in Luoyang City alone. The city was also bustling with traffic.
The population of this world is not like in history, when the entire Han Dynasty only had a population of tens of millions. Xiao Ziyu estimated it based on the population of Youzhou.
The entire Han world definitely has a population of more than several billion.
He was a little surprised at first, but when he thought that this was a mythical world, the area of the Han Dynasty was definitely dozens of times larger than before, so having such a large population was not enough evidence.
Of course, a larger population means more soldiers in the army.
The historical alliance of Guandong princes only consisted of hundreds of thousands of troops.
But now, according to Xiao Ziyu's rough calculation, there are at least an army of around one million.
Just when Xiao Ziyu was about to enter the city, he ran into trouble.
He was stopped by the soldiers guarding the city. Seeing them looking at Ta Xue greedily, Xiao Ziyu's eyes suddenly narrowed, revealing a dangerous look.
