Cao Cao looked at Chen Qun who was lying on the ground. After a moment of silence, he took off his robe and threw it on Chen Qun. It was still very cold in Kandahar at the end of December. Even though many braziers were lit in the government office, Chen Qun was really If you stay here all night, there will be big problems.
Seeing this scene, Cheng Yu felt a little relieved. Although Cao Cao was already intent on killing, at least he still knew who the backbone Zhongliang was, so things were still within expectation.
Cheng Yu is very clear about what he is doing and what the major families are doing, but it cannot be done absolutely, and it is impossible to do it absolutely. If it is done absolutely, there will be no future, but if it is not done, there will be no future, and this degree The core is that Cao Cao must not be carried away by anger.
"Let's go." Cao Cao turned to Cheng Yu with clear murderous intent. Cheng Yu nodded. His blow was enough to knock Chen Qun unconscious for two hours. Chen Qun woke up two hours later and led others. Come on, it's almost time.
Because at this point, Cheng Yu had no choice. If he didn't do this, Cao Cao wouldn't be able to survive these three days, and if he couldn't survive these three days, it would be meaningless to talk about the future.
Therefore, Cheng Yu directly chose to take action when he was sure that the situation was approaching irreversibility and there would be absolutely no second way if he didn't take action first.
At this time, Cao Cao's military power has not yet collapsed. This is the reason why it was delivered to the people and the army as soon as possible. Only in this way can the execution of the political entity be guaranteed. Without the army and the people, there is no difference between having other things. .
Cao Cao did not mobilize other people's troops, but directly mobilized the Tiger Guards, and then rushed directly to his home according to the list given by Cheng Yu.
The Cao family itself is also a huge family. With the backing of Cao Cao and the Cao family generals who have been entrusted with important tasks under Cao Cao, they have developed rapidly in these years.
As soon as the Tiger Guards surrounded the Cao family, the Cao clan living inside stopped the Tiger Guards with their guards. However, compared with the previous respect, Cao Cao personally ordered this time that a reckless man like Dian Wei, Without giving any face, he rushed in.
When they rushed into the courtyard, Cao Hu, a descendant of Cao Ding, Cao Xiu's uncle and Cao Cao's cousin, hurriedly dressed and rushed out.
"Who dares to break into my Cao family's residence!" Cao Hu rushed out wearing embroidered clothes and stopped directly in front of the Tiger Guards. "You don't know whose house this is?"
Dian Wei appeared and held Cao Hu down. When Cao Hu saw it was Dian Wei, he suddenly felt bad. Everyone in the Cao family knew that Dian Wei would always be by Cao Cao's side and would never leave. But now that Dian Wei appeared here, Cao Hu Immediately I knew that Cao Cao was coming.
"Brother!" Cao Hu did not find Cao Cao among the tall Tiger Guards, but he knew that Cao Cao must be here. He was not a fool. He said accurately that a fool could not do such a thing. Only that kind of smartness, but Only a guy who doesn't have great wisdom would do this.
Cao Cao was silent for a long time, and finally walked out. This was his brother, Cao Xiu's uncle, and the chief steward of the Cao family.
"Brother, what are you doing!" Cao Hu saw Cao Cao coming out of the army and instantly felt confident, "How can there be a reason to surround my Cao family with a large army!"...
"You exchanged the votes in your hands for the irrigation area of the Helmand River from the people, right?" Cao Cao walked slowly towards Cao Lake as if nothing was wrong.
"Yeah, those guys thought they could take advantage, so they replaced them quickly." Cao Hu did not shy away from this matter. In his opinion, he did the right thing, "Actually, where is that kind of thing?" Good thing."
Cao Cao walked over calmly and killed Cao Hu with a sword. At that moment, Cao Hu was still laughing, but Cao Cao's face looked like an evil ghost.
"Execute the people on the list." Cao Cao looked at Cao Hu. It was clear that the blood pressure in his skull had exceeded 300, but his face was unusually calm, and he would not regret death.
Soon, with bloody hands, Cao Cao took out the land deeds of the corresponding Helmand River irrigation area and some manufacturing enterprises from the large box that Cao Hu had pressed under the floor tiles of his house.
"Let's go to the next house." When Cao Cao came out of Cao Hu's house, Cao Ren and Cao Xiu had already stopped at the door with their own guards.
"Brother!" Cao Ren shouted at Cao Cao at the top of his lungs. He had already
Knowing what happened, Cao Hu was dead, and their kind brother, the chief steward of the Cao family, was dead.
"Uncle!" Cao Xiu knelt directly in front of Cao Cao, crying bitterly.
Cao Xiu narrowly escaped death in the battle in Xuzhou, but because he was seriously injured and unable to go with Cao Cao when he was defeated, he could only recuperate in Xuzhou. Due to the situation at that time, there was no better treatment plan, and he was not out of body. , left the root of the disease, and has been recuperating for many years, resulting in few records of attacking Cao Cao's forces, but even Cao Cao does not deny Cao Xiu's ability.
"What are you going to do?" Cao Cao looked at Cao Ren and Cao Xiu calmly and said.
"We also know what my brother did. Some of the tickets for the land he exchanged came from our family!" Cao Ren cried bitterly. How could Cao Hu be able to exchange for a box full of tickets? That was the entire Cao family that Cao Hu helped , Xiahou's family exchanged it, and there was even a ticket that Mrs. Bian gave to Cao Hu, which belonged to Cao Cao. People are individuals, but they ultimately rely on the collective to live.
"Zixiao." Cao Cao looked at Cao Ren, "Don't give me a reason to kill you."
This answer made Cao Ren immediately tremble. He looked at Cao Cao with an expression full of disbelief. Then Cao Cao turned his head and led his troops to kill the next family directly.
The moment Cao Cao turned around and left, Cao Ren, who could grit his teeth and persevere no matter how difficult the situation was, immediately knelt on the ground with his legs weak, crying loudly as he looked at the burning Cao Hu family.
Then Cao Ren rushed directly into the fire scene, and Cao Xiu rushed in immediately, and finally dragged Cao Ren out alive, and what came out with him was Cao Hu's headless body. Cao Ren knelt down and cried bitterly. I don’t understand, why, why!
When Cao Cao came out from Cao's side, Xia Houyuan and Xia Houdun also rushed over with their personal guards. Looking at Cao Cao who was covered in blood, the two of them were unusually silent.
"Miaocai, Yuan Rang, are you trying to stop me too?" Cao Cao couldn't help but question as he looked at the Xiahou brothers who were standing in front of him, as well as his nephew whom he was very optimistic about, and even Cao Ang who was not even dressed neatly. When did he live like this? ….
"You also want to stop me?" Cao Cao's voice was as shrill as a night owl. Xiahou Dun stepped forward to speak. Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ang directly grabbed Xiahou Yuan. They realized that Cao Cao's current state was not right and they could not let Xiahou Dun step forward.
"Order the troops to spread out and go to the four gates." Cao Ang looked up to the sky and sighed, and said to Xiahou Dun. This is the only way to do it at this time. You can't really stop it. In Cao Cao's current state, if they stop it, they will also will die.
At this time, Kandahar was already in chaos, and the major families were not blind. There was no problem with Cao Cao leading his troops to the Cao family, but the fire broke out, Cao Hu died, and then Cao Cao came out of the Cao family in blood-clothed clothes. What happened? You fool, how could you not know?
Any aristocratic family that has experienced Yuan Shu's incident knows that when the other party kills his own family, then you can't even think that others will spare you.
Cao Cao led his troops directly through the scattered guards of the Xiahou brothers and went straight towards the Wu family. At this time, Wu Zhi already knew that things were going to be bad and wanted to shout to Cao Cao on the wall, but the oncoming enemy threw him. The spear broke directly into the home.
In an instant, the Wu family in Jiyin on Cao Cao's side was destined to end.
Taking the land deed document and acceptance note in hand, Cao Cao looked at the Wu family that was already covered in blood indifferently, and then walked towards the next family. Kandahar had completely fallen into chaos.
"Thief Cao!" Du Ji was woken up by his housekeeper in the middle of the night. When he saw the fire in Kandahar, he was stunned for a moment. Then he quickly realized what had happened and immediately shouted filial piety.
But after this sound, Du Ji seemed to have aged twenty years in an instant, and most of his energy and energy had receded. He was not a fool. Even as a wise man, he was enough to leave a name in the Three Kingdoms. But because he understood , only then did he know what Cao Cao was doing now.
"Master, what should we do?" the housekeeper asked Du Ji in a panic.
"It's too late, are Xun Wenruo and Chen Changwen crazy?" Du Ji said through gritted teeth. The major families dared to do this because they knew that Cao Cao did not dare to kill them. Even if he really wanted to kill them, someone would stop Cao Cao. Jane
To put it simply, one Liuba is not enough. Even if we accept the reality of compensation in the future, we still have to pay half of it now, and we are not willing to get it ourselves.
That's right, Liu Ba is already dead. He committed suicide after Chen Gong went to Chang'an. This is really the last act of dignity, and Cao Cao's failure to protect Liu Ba is actually proving to the major families that I follow the rules, so I will unify first. After winning the army and the people, we will attack Ardashir, and I will use the subsequent output to cash in for you.
Doesn't Cao Cao know the importance of Liu Ba? Know!
Doesn’t the aristocratic family know the importance of Liu Ba? Know!
Everyone knows, including Chen Xi, that Liu Ba is definitely one of the top three economic pillars in the world during this period, but Liu Ba must die.
For such a big thing, no one takes the blame, and the rules are not even mentioned. Who would believe it!
In theory, if you don't say anything about Lu Su and I don't say anything, it will be fine. But since Lu Su was exiled, this is the rule.
When did the collapse of national credibility begin? Didn’t it start from this kind of thing? Regardless of whether Liu Ba only doubled the over-issuance, and the remaining 400% of the over-issuance was caused by others, as long as you stand behind these people in this economic system, then if there is no thunder, you can get These people take their money for granted, and if there is a thunderstorm, you should be the one to bear the thunder. ….
There's no fuss, it's straight forward and simple.
Since there is a thunderstorm, you, Liu Ba, should bear the thunder. This is the rule of the game, and it is also the embodiment of the credibility of the country and Cao Cao's political entity.
It's just that these aristocratic families who followed Cao Cao felt that they had suffered a loss after Liu Ba's death, so they used other methods to get their interests back.
It's a pity that this method is the same as Chaofa. He said he would take half of it, but who would be the conscience? Even a person like Du Ji did not dare to touch his conscience and say that the housekeeper who went to exchange the tickets at home would just take it according to the proportion. Theoretical half of the title deed.
What nonsense are you talking about? If some openings are opened, then you really have to suppress them based on morality. The problem is that moral issues are meaningful when talking about some people in the aristocratic family, but when it comes to the entire aristocratic family group, it is pure nonsense. , the aristocratic family has no morals, but they make up morals!
"Knock Shu'er unconscious and send her to the Chen family." Du Jise smiled twice. He was not stupid. He had already realized that there was no room for turning around. They all thought that they could just delay it for a little longer. If Cao Cao could bear it, Chen Qun and Xun may be able to hold on, but the facts tell them that they can't delay it any longer, and Cao Cao is crazy.
"Du Ji!" Cao Cao stopped at the door of Du's house. The Du family in Jingzhao has been a wealthy family for generations, a real big family at the level of a county magistrate, and he is Cao Cao's loyal supporter. What's more important is that Du Ji has followed Cao Cao very early, and his family has not He has always been Cao Cao's backbone in doing branch backup and so on. In terms of trust, Du Ji is one of Cao Cao's core civil servants.
Therefore, when the army pushed to the door of Du's house, Cao Cao stopped and personally stood up to greet Du's house.
"Cao Sikong." Du Ji opened the door and looked at Cao Cao who was stained with a lot of blood outside, and then at the Tiger Guards surrounding his house. He didn't feel any fear or grievance. As he said, those who really stood by The guy who dares to do this must have the consciousness to do it.
Only this time, Du Ji didn't call his lord. The other party was going to destroy the entire Du family, so there was nothing else to say.
"Why?" Cao Cao looked at Du Ji and asked.
Cao Cao fought all the way, from his determination to go to the Cao family in person, to his madness when he killed Cao Hu to face the Cao brothers and Xiahou brothers, to his numbness when he slaughtered every family, until the army surrounded the Jingzhao Du family, Cao Cao finally had A trace of calmness, this is his courtier, a courtier who is truly loyal to him, a courtier who has always cared for him.
"One Liuba is not enough." Du Ji said calmly.
"I said I would compensate! I even emptied the Cao family and the Xiahou family. The people have no wealth. You have it, so why can't you wait?" Cao Cao looked at Du Ji with a ferocious expression. He said he would compensate, but Now we must protect the soldiers and the people, otherwise Cao Cao and the ruling family will all die!
If he really didn't want to compensate the major families, why did Liu Ba commit suicide? Liu Ba explained it to prove Cao Cao's credibility and that Cao Cao still abided by the rules and died.
Really want it
If he didn't follow the rules, Liu Ba wouldn't have to die at all. But if he really didn't follow the rules, the major families would have already incited the people and soldiers under their rule, and even if they had resources, they would artificially create a run.
Instead of exchanging the land deeds and documents for the people and soldiers, this method is just that they feel that it is not enough and need to get back some of what belongs to them.
Logically, within the rules.
