Chapter 6770 Monarch and Friends
Chapter 6770 Monarch and Friends
"What's going on? We're notified late in the evening to go to the government office tomorrow morning for a meeting. Normally, shouldn't people of our rank go to the parade ground?" The veteran who received the notice from his superiors asked with some confusion while chewing on a piece of bread.
"I heard that old Cao has fallen, and the new prince has come to power. Maybe he is eager to make things happen, so he wants to see us." Feng Ke, who had just performed surgery on a group of unlucky children, took out a jar of alcohol from the emergency room, poured a bowl for each of the old brothers around him, and then started drinking.
As a fighting master, why did you learn first aid? Isn't it because there is always alcohol in the emergency room? Plus, when you become a first aid master, no one will care if you drink a little alcohol secretly. After all, the master can really save your life. If you see the master drinking, will you really report it?
"Lao Cao has finally fallen. Damn it, it's so frustrating to work for this guy. I'm also numb. Sometimes I don't know what to do." Sun Ling moved his arm, which had recovered 80% of its strength, and said with a numb look, "Forget it, forget it, let's not talk about Lao Cao, let's drink. Kandahar is really cold after the rain. Give me two more bowls to warm me up. You can drink as much as you want today."
"General Cao Hong is dead, and no one is checking the accounts. Just drink as much as you want." Feng Ke said with some tiredness. Feng Ke didn't really have any deep feelings about Cao Hong's death, but since he was dead, it was no longer empty talk to just drink the high-proof alcohol used for disinfection.
"In fact, General Cao Hong is an okay person, except that he is stingy. It's a pity..." Ma Pin said with a sigh. Everyone has been in Kandahar for so many years and is quite familiar with the situation in Kandahar as a whole. Cao Hong's failure was really unexpected.
"We can't do anything about it. People suspect that we are not doing our job well, so they do it themselves." Feng Ke said calmly, "Forget it, let's see which general I will be assigned to. I hope it will be General Cao Zhen's. Anyway, I just don't want to be General Xiahou's."
"I'm thinking about retiring. I heard there will be a grand military performance during the New Year. I might as well go back to Chang'an to participate in it." Hu Bo said with a bit of tiredness, "By the way, we are the only veterans above the fifth level under General Cao Hong?"
"How many more do you want?" Feng Ke complained helplessly, "There are not many people who have reached the fifth level of smelting and above, and there are even fewer now. Forget it, let's talk about the new boss. Do you have a deep understanding of him? If this continues, I'm going to run away. With my level, I can survive in any emergency room. It's definitely not worse than this one."
"Brother, I call you brother. If you run away, we all have to run away." Ma Pin knelt down on the spot.
The reason this group of people are still alive today is all thanks to Feng Ke's first aid skills. Without Feng Ke's first aid skills, they would either be dead or disabled. So if Feng Ke wants to leave, Ma Pin and the others will have to retreat as well. The fact that they can still maintain their combat effectiveness and lively posture at their current age is all thanks to Feng Ke who provides them with maintenance from time to time.
"It's just talk. Can you brothers successfully forge a covenant? If we continue like this, even with me, we won't be able to bear it. We're really old. This guy broke an arm or a leg before, and it should have recovered by now, but this time, he has only recovered 80% so far. Damn it, the older you are, the more powerful the youth is." Feng Ke said very tiredly.
"Study it again, study it again, this talent is not suitable for us brothers." Hu Bo said with a sigh, "But I know what the newly appointed Prince Cao is like. I have a special intelligence channel."
Everyone glanced at Hu Bo. What a special intelligence channel. You collected it by peeping, right? You really thought we didn't know. Your small clones, which numbered hundreds, had little combat power, but you were very good at peeping and stealing intelligence. I was impressed.
Hu Bo roughly told these people what he had learned. After all, hundreds of clones roamed around every day to collect intelligence. Hu Bo knew much more than this group of people. Also because he knew so much, Hu Bo also seemed very cautious in some aspects. That is to say, he followed this group of old brothers, otherwise he would not speak these things directly.
There is a big difference between others knowing that you know and you showing that you know.
"In this case, the new prince is much better than Lao Cao." Feng Ke said with some relief, "In this case, I can still continue to hang around here. Otherwise, if it's always the same as before, I'm afraid I'm doomed."
On the other side, in Cao Zhen’s camp, some veterans who received the notice were also discussing this. However, they had a relatively high favorable impression of Cao Ang. After all, they had Tian Zhong and Xu Yuan to speak for them, and these two men were both very capable and famous, so the centurions also believed in them. Therefore, the overall atmosphere was more inclined towards Cao Ang, and they believed that Cao Ang would bring about positive changes.
On the contrary, the camps of Cao Ren and Xiahou brothers had some prejudice in discussing the news. Their impression of people with the surname Cao was very ordinary now, so they felt that Cao Ang's coming to power was just a change of skin, there was no difference. However, what happened in the past two years was there, and no matter what these people thought, at least they felt that Cao Ang was better than Cao Cao.
Therefore, these centurions did not really have any extra thoughts about going to the government office to attend the meeting tomorrow. They were not forbidden to bring weapons and equipment, so what was there to be afraid of? Could Cao Ang possibly go crazy and capture them all?
What a joke, even Lao Cao doesn't have this ability. If Lao Cao dares to do this, this group of elite backbones gathered together will dare to take off Lao Cao's head.
Even with Dian Wei's protection, thousands of elite soldiers might not be able to kill Dian Wei quickly, but the map-cannon-like attack could not kill Dian Wei, nor could it kill Cao Cao.
You should know that some of the centurions are specialized in smelting the kind of map cannon-like attacks. For example, Bai Wang, with a snap of his fingers, directly launches a map cannon within a radius of more than ten meters. All of them will be attacked by high-energy infrasonic waves. They will all kneel down and vomit.
This kind of talent is indeed very rare, but with thousands of elite centurions gathered together, it can be put together. Admittedly, this kind of attack is almost like drizzle for Dian Wei, and it has a slight impact at most. But if the attack that has a slight impact on Dian Wei falls on Cao Cao, not to mention blowing Cao Cao up, it will definitely make Cao Cao vomit.
Dian Wei is like a solid layer of protection for Cao Cao, but there really is a way in this world to destroy the things inside without destroying the protection. For example, the egg is not broken, but the egg itself is mixed up by shaking it. This is also a way to solve the problem, so when there are more than a hundred men, there is really nothing to be afraid of.
"Oh, I'm really convinced. I haven't even helped the prince to ascend the throne yet, and he took the throne on his own. What a loss!" Zhang Xiu looked at the news sent by Cao Ang in a daze. However, Cao Ang had stepped down, which was enough for Zhang Xiu. No matter what Cao Ang was, he would not be as crazy as Cao Cao.
"So what should we do next? Should we go back to Pamirs, or continue here?" The elite cavalry sent by Hua Xiong and the three idiots asked cautiously. After all, they had already thought about it before. After they had done this job and repaid Cao, they would go back to Pamirs. But before they could do that, Cao himself made a correction and now Cao Ang was in power.
"Cold dish." Zhang Xiu said unhappily, but then he adjusted his expression, "Let's see the situation first, and then we'll talk about it after we return to Congling. Let's see what happens here first."
If he could avoid going back to Pamirs, Zhang Xiu still didn't want to go back. Even if he could get a large piece of the Turan Plain and could go back to be the heir, Zhang Xiu still didn't want to go back. A real man should rely on himself instead of relatives.
Moreover, Zhang Xiu was also very clear about the situation of his bad uncles. Although the bad uncles were very good to him, Zhang Xiu thought he still had to consider this aspect more.
It's just that the previous situation was too bad, and Zhang Xiu had no patience with Cao Cao. He thought that he should help Cao in the end and then run away. But now that Cao Ang has come to power, Zhang Xiu, who knows Cao Ang's character well, thinks it is necessary to wait and see.
Besides, the Pamir Mountains are right there, and one can surrender there at any time, early or late. But as for Kandahar, once one leaves, there is no way back. So when it comes to relying on oneself, Zhang Xiu thinks it is better to rely on himself.
After receiving the notice, Pang De, Le Jin, Xu Huang, Li Dian and others began to think. Although they had met Cao Ang this morning, they still had to think carefully about the impact of summoning all the backbones of centurions and above.
"Brother Jiong, come with me to the meeting tomorrow. The prince helped us before. Regardless of what others think this time, we have to stand on the prince's side." Yan Xing called out to Li Jiong. He really regarded Li Jiong as his brother now. Without Li Jiong's outrageous ability, most of Yan Xing's men would not have escaped, but most of them would have died there. The Holy Death Riders were too fierce in mowing down the enemy.
"Didn't I just attend the meeting this morning?" The wrinkles on Li Jiong's face were enough to pinch a fly to death. He was completely different from the plump, collagen-rich young man he was a few days ago. There was no way. After using his super talent Lugo to return to Japan, the oath of his oath talent was drained. To be honest, it was thanks to the oath that blocked it, and Li Jiong's foundation was strong enough, otherwise he should have been drained.
Even though Lugo's talent for returning to the sun only requires paying the prelude to activate the talent, the rest depends entirely on the output of nature itself, but this alone is enough to drain a veteran at the level of a god.
"This morning, it was just a meeting to clarify some things and let everyone know that Chang'an has given its approval. The big thing is to summon all the centurions tomorrow." Yan Xing explained with a smile, "To summon all the centurions at this time, there must be something big to announce, and this big thing will affect the interests of everyone, otherwise there is no need to do so."
What Yan Xing could see clearly, Cao's civil officials could naturally see clearly as well.
"Xiaoxian, don't you think you are being too hasty?" Chen Qun grabbed Mao Jie, who was running hurriedly, and dragged him into the alley. The guards did not stop him when they saw that it was Chen Qun.
"If there is no hurry now, when will there be?" Mao Jie asked directly. Now Mao Jie has basically figured out the general situation. It is possible for Cao Ang to turn the tables. Assuming that Cao Ang's crown tassels were really given to him voluntarily by his father as Cao Ang said, then he might be able to turn the tables this time.
After all, you can say that Cao Cao is a bad guy, but you cannot deny Cao Cao's ability. Even Cao's Five Strategists cannot be said to be stronger than Cao Cao. This man is really talented and capable, but his mind is not right. In this case, Cao Cao was willing to give Cao Ang the crown. It can only be said that Cao Ang really took out an important piece of the puzzle to win victory.
As for the fact that Cao Ang has a spiritual talent that has been hidden under everyone's noses until now, it is easy for people to think that Cao Ang is the same kind of person as Cao Cao, a shady guy or something. Does this matter? It doesn't matter!
As long as Cao Ang can occupy the northwest entrance of Kabul and directly create the possibility of victory, then all these complaints can now be blown away by the wind.
Human beings have completely different requirements for friends, leaders, and monarchs.
To put it bluntly, in troubled times, if Liu Bei, a man who truly treats brothers as brothers and friends as friends, and Li Er, a man who kills his brothers and sisters for fun and imprisons his father and sings a song to seduce his sister-in-law, both appear in front of you and recruit you to be his subordinate, who will you choose?
The most likely choice is Li Er, the one who has a moral vacuum, no personal ethics, and is completely anthropomorphic.
Do you understand? What matters is not how good your personal morals are, but how strong your abilities are.
If a monarch has bad personal morals, at most he will kill some high-ranking officials, have some affairs with women, and talk nonsense. But as long as he is not ambiguous on major issues, he is a very good monarch.
Xiang Yu's personal morality was very good in the records of Han Xin and Zhang Liang, but why did no one follow Xiang Yu later? Because Xiang Yu did not give out rewards. Your kindness to a friend like me was of no use. What I needed was a fiefdom and the title of marquis. When you gave me these, I began to hesitate. Fuck, I joined Liu Bang.
Liu Bang was a different story. He was a complete hooligan with corrupt personal morals. He urinated in Confucian scholars' hats. When his father was arrested, he divided the spoils. When he ran away, he kicked his son and daughter out of the car, etc. But when it came to dividing titles and fiefdoms, Liu Bang was very magnanimous and unrestrained. He divided!
Therefore, the old rogue Liu Bang was considered to have the demeanor of an elder when it came to being a monarch. This was written by Sima Qian, a guy who made a living by smearing the Liu family. You can doubt the black spots that Sima Qian smeared the Liu family in the Records of the Grand Historian, but don't doubt the places where he praised the Liu family, because those are truly impeccable contents.
Compared with these, Cao Ang's performance as Voldemort is nothing!
