Xi Chao looked at Liu Yu motionlessly and said in a deep voice: "Liu Yu, do you know why I have to take off the mask like this and come to tell you with my original identity, not as Lord Qinglong of the Black Hand Universe? Where are these old things?"
Liu Yu said calmly: "You probably want me to believe that there are no good people in this world, and you mafia cannot be evaluated simply by good and evil. Everything is only for your own interests. If your own interests are different from those of the country, Interests are related. Maybe you can show your kindness and allow the Northern Expedition. Therefore, as long as you, Master Qinglong, can complete the goal of unifying the mafia, and I, a soldier who has no desire for power and only cares about fighting, will be your best sword and your best sword. A general who can be used in the Northern Expedition. Right."
Xi Chao smiled slightly: "No, you are wrong, I don't want you to join the mafia, so the person who just talked to you was Xi Chao, the bearded man who joined the army, not the mafia Qinglong. Like you, I have seen it a long time ago The biggest problem is to eliminate the mafia. To realize the ideal of serving the country through the Northern Expedition, we can only eliminate this selfish organization, so I want to join forces with you to eliminate the mafia."
Liu Yu didn't expect Xi Chao to say such a thing. After being stunned, he said in a deep voice: "Are you unable to survive in the mafia, or are you saying this because you want to avenge the grassland? If you want to kill other members of the mafia, Three people, why do you want my help?"
Xi Chao said coldly: "The Mafia has been established for hundreds of years and has a very strict and complete inheritance and response. It is impossible to destroy this huge and terrifying organization by killing only a few people. Only the intelligence organizations guarding the four sides can be destroyed." They have hidden treasures, money and food in various places, and only by taking away all the land deeds in their hands can we destroy this organization. Therefore, I need your help."
Liu Yu curled his lips and calmed down his mood: "What do you want me to do?"
Xi Chao said sternly: "I want you to take control of the Beifu Army, and then use your army to sweep across the Wu region in the south of the Yangtze River and control Jiankang City. Then, you will expel all the children of the aristocratic families in the areas you captured, and return the fields to the state. You can divide these lands." Give meritorious officers and soldiers, but never give them to the children of aristocratic families, and then force the mafia to raise an army to fight. Once they really raise an army, they will definitely use the money, food and weapons hidden in various places. With your military talent, After I take control of Jingzhou and join forces with you, we can put out their uprising. Only then will all the power of the mafia be destroyed. I can ask Murong Lan to come back to help you. Together with our intelligence organizations, we can kill all the others. The century-old intelligence organizations of the three mafia, when all this is done, we can get rid of the three scourges of Suzaku, Xuanwu and Baihu, and the mafia can be truly eliminated."
Liu Yu laughed: "You want me to take charge of the army and sweep across the south of the Yangtze River? Fight a civil war? May I ask what reasons and excuses I have for doing such a thing?"
Xi Chao smiled slightly: "We can let the emperor die suddenly, then blame it on Sima Daozi, and then use the excuse that the aristocratic families and wealthy families in Wu are the accomplices of Sima Daozi, and eliminate them. This was done by Director Wang when the Eastern Jin Dynasty was founded. We did this on the pretext that Wu’s powerful people supported their troops and respected themselves, so they sent troops to eliminate them. This time, we have better reasons and excuses. The mafia did not want to use a civil war in Changdao to cleanse all those who did not listen to their orders. Small and medium-sized aristocratic families, then we will do the opposite and use this civil war to clean them out!"
Liu Yu remained calm and said calmly: "Then what are you going to do? If you want me to take charge of the army, you can't just shrink back."
Xi Chao laughed: "Of course we will join forces to conquer the world. You control the troops in Beifu, and I will control Jingzhou. That boy Huan Xuan is no match for me. I have many ways to make him obey my orders. When the time comes, you can clear out Wu I took action to pacify Yuzhou, Central Plains and Jiangzhou, and wiped out the power of the mafia in these places. As for Bashu and Lingnan, they are remote places and can be ignored for the time being. Anyway, you Your good brothers Mao Qiu and others are also in Yizhou and Liangzhou, at least they will not be your enemies."
"After we uproot the mafia, the Northern Expedition will be our common goal. At that time, the entire southern manpower, financial resources, and military power can be fully deployed by us. You, the general, will lead the army from Jing, Yang and Yang at the same time. , if you attack from these three directions, even Murong Chui will not be able to stop you anymore."
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Then what's the benefit to you? Could it be that you just want to leave a name in history?"
Xi Chao laughed: "I have endured the humiliation, kept my name anonymous, and even pretended to be dead for so many years. It was not in vain. After the mafia is eliminated, I want the ninth-five position. Don't worry, I, Xi Chao, have no children, and the Xi family He kicked me out a long time ago. I am already an old man in his 60s and in his twilight years. Even if I join forces with you in the Northern Expedition, I will not live for a few more years. Let me live a few years as an emperor, and then I will pass on to you. This world is under your control. When you gain supreme power, your achievements in the Northern Expedition, your personal ambitions, and even your love with your two beauties will be preserved, and you will also be regarded as the greatest emperor in the history of our Han people. , how about being remembered by all eternity, are you willing?"
As Xi Chao spoke, his eyes began to shine. Because he spoke faster and faster, more and more smoke filled the throat hole. There was even a trace of blush on his face. This Zongheng The world's great lords are still inevitably excited when expressing their dreams in this way.
Liu Yu looked at Xi Chao calmly and smiled slightly: "Xi Chao, you have probably been living on this dream every day for the past few decades. If your grandfather knew that there were descendants like you, do you think he would? Will you be so angry that you come to life?”
Xi Chao was stunned for a moment, then angrily shouted: "Liu Yu, what do you mean? It's just that you don't want to cooperate. How can you be a hero by insulting me like this? I'm not harming you this time. I'm helping us realize our goals." Shared ideals, what can I do to my ancestors?!"
Liu Yu said coldly: "Who gave you the power to ruin the Northern Expedition and kill tens of thousands of soldiers for your own selfish interests and the dream of the emperor?! Who gave you the power to ruin the Northern Expedition and kill tens of thousands of soldiers?! Raise an army to rebel and bring trouble to the world? Who gave you the power to be above all the people, using their lives and bones to pave the way to the dragon's throne for you? If the Northern Expedition is to harm the people in the south of the Yangtze River, what will happen to the world? living beings, and just for your personal ambition, then I, Liu Yu, would rather never make an expedition to the north in this life!"
