Chapter 6750 Showdown

Chapter 6750 Showdown
Dian Wei himself is a solid pillar and doesn't think much about these issues. In addition, AI Cao Cao had already considered earlier how to transfer Dian Wei away if something went wrong, so he had given instructions on certain aspects.

Therefore, when Cao Wan showed her filial side, Dian Wei did not think much about it and planned to let Cao Wan take Cao Cao away. However, for safety reasons, Dian Wei arranged for the elite Tiger Guards to leave with Cao Wan, while he led the Tiger Guards to guard the government office.

Barak and Cao Wan took Cao Cao away quickly. Dian Wei had no idea that from a certain perspective, this situation was already a big deal.

However, in Dian Wei's simple mind, he did not think of this. After all, Cao Wan was a filial daughter. She came to protect her father the first time something happened outside. She was trustworthy!
What's more, Dian Wei also knew that he and the Tiger Guards had a large conspicuousness. If they retreated with Cao Cao, it would easily attract others to besiege them. It would be better for him to stay at the government office and let the elite Tiger Guards protect Cao Cao as they went to Cao Cao's home, while he continued to attract attention in the government office as Cao Cao had instructed at the time.

"Is it solved?" Barak looked at Cao Cao, who was carried on a stretcher by the Tiger Guards, with a complicated expression. He had already made preparations to fight Dian Wei and the Tiger Guards head on, but his wife went up and did something, and Cao Cao fell directly into their hands.

"What else?" Cao Wan curled her lips and said in a voice transmission, there are some things that if a son does it, people will be afraid of it, but if a married daughter like me does it, there will be no problem. But now that it has been taken, what should I do next?
Obviously, Cao Wan did not think deeply about what she did. She just took down her father when she caught her stinky younger brother to purge the court, and prepared to pave the way for her brother. The problem is that now her father has been taken down, and Cao Wan is confused about what to do next. After all, when she did this, Cao Wan only took the initiative to push the situation forward when it had reached this point, but she had not thought about the follow-up.

To be honest, Cao Wan never thought that it would be so easy to succeed. The filter and halo that her father had on her side were shattered by her punch.

"Let's go to the secret prison and contact my uncle first, and then see how to deal with it." Barak thought for a while and said. Originally, it would be better to ask Gumara about this matter. With the other party's brain, he will definitely give a very good answer. But there are some things that Barak can participate in, and Gumara is better off not participating. From a certain perspective, this kind of thing is already considered treason. Barak at least has a talisman. It is normal for Gumara to be backlashed by such things.

"That's fine." Cao Wan thought about it for a moment and felt that what Barak said made some sense, so she nodded and ordered the Tiger Guards to take Cao Cao to the secret prison. At that time, several Tiger Guards looked at each other in bewilderment, but after Cao Wan's words "The safest place now is definitely the secret prison, and no one will run to the secret prison", they chose to believe it.

Of course, the most important thing is that Lin He is now working in the Secret Prison, and the elite Tiger Guards also think it is a good idea to join forces with the Tiger Guards in the Secret Prison. If nothing else, it is at least safe.

When Cao Wan led the Tiger Guards and Lao Cao through the alleys to the secret prison, the entire city of Kandahar was already in turmoil. Ever since Cao Zhang clamored to purge the court, Kandahar city had fallen into chaos. As Cao Zhang's momentum gradually grew, the entire city of Kandahar became noisy.

Some people have even begun to do some illegal things secretly. Fortunately, Kandahar is essentially a military fortress, and precautions were taken against this kind of unrest during its construction. So even if some trouble occurred, there was no outright riot. After all, the number of core veterans at the middle level under Lao Cao's command is one of the largest in the world.

Although these veterans, like those under the command of Cao Ren, Cao Hong, and the Xiahou brothers, are not aggressive enough on the battlefield due to their resentment towards Cao Cao himself, they can still maintain stability in their own territory. In other words, if you ask them to fight desperately for Cao, don't expect them to do so, but if they encounter the enemy and ask them to hold the defense line, their performance will still be very good.

After all, it is very easy to fall into the enemy's encirclement when taking the initiative to attack and encircle the opponent. However, relying on the front line for defense is stable, and the veterans are relatively experienced. Of course, the most important point is that the top veterans on Cao Cao's side are the elites from the Yellow Turban period who were absorbed in Yongzhou. They can really fight, but they are indeed old.

The average age of the elite veterans on Lao Cao's side is five to eight years older than that of veterans from other forces. Of course, the average smelting level is also higher, but the overall combat effectiveness, especially the offensive capability, is not as good as that of other forces. However, when it comes to the ability to survive, the veterans here are still quite good. In other words, when it comes to local garrison defense, these veterans are very capable.

But if you want to drive these veterans to take the initiative to attack, unless there is a big advantage, these veterans are really not very good. There are more than one reason for this. At least there are problems with their own morale, problems with the talent structure caused by the situation over the years, and problems with their recent status.

In short, this is the attitude of the veterans towards working for Cao. It is basically impossible for them to give 120% of their strength to fight for Cao. Normally, they give 70% of their strength and keep 30% to deal with various emergencies. If anything, we cannot say that there is something wrong with this operation. This is no longer a problem of not trying hard, but a problem of not being able to try hard. Zhao Yun himself could not change his mentality of giving 70% of his strength and keeping 30%, let alone the soldiers under Cao.

Therefore, when Kandahar was clamoring to purge the emperor's side and actually took action, and some spies remaining in Kandahar began to jump out and create riots, Kandahar actually maintained overall stability and no major unrest occurred.

"Master, there is a riot outside. I sent people to investigate. They said that foreign troops have entered the city to restore order and purge the emperor's court." The guards of the Zhen family informed Zhen Yao of the intelligence they had obtained.

Zhen Yao's scalp tingled when he heard that. He stood up and walked around the courtyard. After walking for a long time, he still hadn't made up his mind. He could only have his men close the gate and concentrate all their manpower in the small Wu Castle specially built in the backyard. This was the wisdom that Zhen Yao and other families had learned after coming here.

This Wu Castle, which is half embedded in the ground, is not too big, but it can barely squeeze all the people in the family in. Then relying on the closed structure of Wu Castle and things like the Dragon-Breaking Stone, after sealing Wu Castle, a city as densely covered as Kandahar would take a long time even for a large army to take down. Zhen Yao felt that what the other families said made sense, so he also built such a thing.

On the other side, Xun Yu and Chen Gong also received news of the civil unrest in Kandahar.

"Gongtai." Xun Yu looked at Chen Gong and spoke softly.

"I lost." Chen Gong sighed and said, what he wanted to save was not the present Cao Cao, but the Cao Cao who had nothing back then, who risked his life to assassinate Dong Zhuo, and fled from Luoyang. The real body of Bai Yueguang could not defeat the Bai Yueguang in his memory, this was the reality.

"Have you thought of a way out?" Xun Yu looked at Chen Gong and said calmly.

"No need to retreat. If you lose, you will take all the blame and A Man back to Chenliu." Chen Gong said indifferently, "I was mentally prepared when I came here. After all, someone must bear the blame for Kandahar. No matter how well Cao Zixiu does, as long as he is still Cao Cao's son and relies on the logic of father-to-son succession, he will not be able to stay here."

Cao Ang did a very good job and had done his best, but why was it so difficult for Cao Ang to manage Cao Cao's forces before Cao Cao returned? To put it bluntly, isn't it because Cao Ang is Cao Cao's son?

Cao Ang, who had not cut ties with Cao Cao, was always seen as Cao Cao's successor in the eyes of others, and the continuation of Cao Cao's legal system. This is why when Cao Cao came back and captured Cao Ang, the small amount of forces that had originally gathered around Cao Ang quickly grew and expanded.

Some things must be contrasted, and the easiest way to form the concept of one's own people is to have a group of other people!

When Cao Cao passed away, the biggest label on Cao Ang was that he was Cao Cao's successor, the continuator of Cao Cao's systems, and the one who bore all the blame. Therefore, many people were inherently unhappy with Cao Ang. After all, the idea of ​​a son paying off his father's debts is still the case in the 21st century, not to mention in the third century.

Therefore, what Cao Ang could do before was mostly patchwork. Cao Cao's forces were basically left to their own devices at that time. There were many things Cao Ang could do, but he could accomplish very little because the blame that belonged to Cao Cao was put on Cao Ang's head after Cao Cao left.

There is no way to solve the problem by means of death. If Cao Ang wants to move forward, he must carry a heavy burden. This burden will even continue to hinder the development of Cao Cao's power. Even if Cao Ang is replaced, there is no way to solve the problem from the root.

That’s why there is the scene of Cao Cao’s return. Only when Cao Cao comes back can the previous shit pot be shifted, there can be a clear contrast, and people can understand what to choose.

It's not that Cao Ang did a good job, but that a bad guy came back and proved to them what bad means. The landlords were forced to join the Communist Party, which wanted to eliminate the landlord class. Was it because the landlords were open-minded? No, it was because the Kuomintang's behavior of exterminating the landlord class was too abstract, forcing the landlords to live. Compared with the Communist Party, which eliminated the landlord class in terms of policy, the Kuomintang's behavior of exterminating the landlord class was directly physical extermination.

So even pigs know how to choose.

There is no way, there is no way to describe how bad the bad guys are.

In short, with Lao Cao, there were no more obstacles for Cao Ang to take over Cao Cao's power, and the people's hearts and minds also turned to Cao Ang.

"AI is actually the silhouette of the lord, right?" Xun Yu asked Chen Gong.

Chen Gong nodded. "Yes, that is the hero in my memory, not the guy who has been tainted by some unknown factor and has become like this now."

"Then what will you do?" Xun Yu asked again.

"There is no other way. Now that things have come to this, I have done everything I can. The only pity is that the former A'man still hasn't woken up. He is obsessed with power and himself, and has completely forgotten his ideals." Chen Gong said tiredly, "I have used up most of my intellectual reserves to find a way out for A'man, but in the end, he died here."

"In fact, you should have known it would be like this, but you were just holding on to a last chance." Xun Yu looked at Chen Gong helplessly and said.

"If I didn't even have this bit of luck, I might not have made it this far." Chen Gong exhaled and said, "But I've lost, and at least I can say to the past A-Man with a clear conscience that I passed on his family business and beliefs instead of burning them in the world. This time we retreat, except for the final moment when we establish our territory, A-Man and I will never come back."

"With the guilt and all the mistakes?" Xun Yu raised his eyebrows.

Clearing the court of evil officials meant that all the executors were held accountable, and Cao Ang's succession also meant sharing the blame. All the executors nominated Cao Ang. It was no longer Cao Cao who designated Cao Ang to succeed the throne, but Cao Ang who succeeded the throne relying on the hearts and manpower of the people. From the very beginning, Cao Ang had his own legal system.

In other words, the sun and the moon have changed and the new world has been created. We have gone through a set of procedures and cut off the burdens of the past from the root. Only in this way can Lao Cao's forces go into battle lightly. Oh, not Lao Cao's forces, but Cao Ang's forces. After today, there should be no Lao Cao.

"If we don't do this, there's basically no hope." Chen Gong sneered and said, "Xun Wenruo, you are a genius in the world, but do you think you can exert your strength in this situation?"

"Three points?" Xun Yu asked back.

"Maybe. I thought about it for a whole year in Chang'an, exhausting almost all of my intellectual reserves, and finally found this win-win solution. The one who can solve the Kandahar problem is either the strong man Meng De whom I met that year, or Cao Ang who bears all the blame can take the throne. In this way, at least the entire foundation can be preserved." Chen Gong looked at Xun Yu indifferently.

"I have finished my work. Next, it is your turn to put on the crown and the jade robe for Cao Zixiu! Mao Xiaoxian has already done it privately. Now it is your turn." Chen Gong looked at Xun Yu with his eyes somewhat dull. Although the answer has been given now and Chen Gong still spoke so confidently, Chen Gong knew that the current answer was not the one he wanted.

Cao Ang took over under the current situation and cut off ties with the past, which indeed solved all the problems. After entering the western gate of Kabul, he established himself as a heroic leader. But what does this have to do with him? The guy he wanted to see never came back in the end.

"I actually lost." Chen Gong sighed as he watched Xun Yu leave.

Slip, slip, it seems I have to work at night recently
