Chapter 1126: Where I am is home
Zhang Zhongjingshi's needles are very effective.
Yuan Shao woke up not long after he was in a coma.
Seeing that he woke up, Yuan Fang couldn't hold back his excitement and asked, "Father is awake?" ”
glanced at Yuan Fang, and then Yuan Shao saw Cao Shuo.
When he found that Cao Shuo was also beside him, his eyes slowly closed again.
"The son-in-law has seen his father-in-law." Cao Shuo bowed to Yuan Shao and made a big salute.
"Childe doesn't have to be polite." Yuan Shao closed his eyes and said: "I'm just a prisoner, and my life is in the hands of my son, how dare I accept such a big gift?" ”
"Father-in-law is serious." Cao Shuo replied: "Just now, my wife and I came to greet my father-in-law, and when we saw that my father-in-law was unconscious, I was really flustered. Fortunately, Mr. Zhang Zhongjing is Shouchun, and after he applied the needle, he saw his father-in-law's face improve. ”
"As a prisoner, you might as well die!" Yuan Shao sighed and said, "What's the difference between me living and dying now?" ”
"It's a big difference." Cao Shuo said: "As long as my father-in-law is willing, the wealth and glory are still there, and I can enjoy the joy of family in the future." If he really dies and his life of glory turns to dust, in addition to the historian who may remember a few things about his father-in-law, who else in the world can remember his father-in-law? ”
"It's as if you've seen it all." Yuan Shao opened his eyes and looked at Cao Shuo: "Since you think so, why do you still lead the army to conquer?" Why are you still making enemies of our Yuan family? ”
"The reason is simple." Cao Shuo replied: "If I don't conquer, I will die, but my father-in-law can live freely if he doesn't conquer." I can't afford to lose so I can fight, but my father-in-law can. ”
"Can you afford to lose?" Yuan Shao sneered: "If I lose Hebei, I will have no family business, but you say that I can afford to lose." ”
"If I lose Huainan, I will have no head." Cao Shuo took his words and said: "Not only will I be beheaded, but even the ladies in the back house will be humiliated." I don't fight, and I don't just lose my family business. With me here, as long as the Yuan family surrenders to sincerity, no one will touch them at all. But if I lose, my father-in-law dares to say that he won't touch me at all? ”
Staring at Cao Shuo, Yuan Shao frowned and didn't say anything more.
Cao Shuo was right.
If the Battle of Cangting was not won by Cao Shuo, but that he captured Cao Shuo, at this time the head of his son-in-law should be inserted into the spear of the soldier, proclaiming force to the Cao family.
"Father-in-law should know that what I have always talked about is love." Cao Shuo said: "But the two words of love and righteousness, but they can't save their families and lives, other people's swords are on their necks, is it possible that I still have to give up my life and the lives of everyone who follows me for the sake of love and righteousness?" ”
"You're right." Yuan Shao finally said: "If you lose the battle of Cangting, I will cut off your head......"
"But I won't be bad for my father-in-law." Cao Shuo said: "I want Hebei, but I won't want the Yuan family in Hebei to be wiped out." ”
"I have been running Hebei for many years, but I didn't expect to be pried into the foundation by you in the end." Yuan Shao sighed and said, "Maybe this is the number of fate......
"The world has always been there, but people are different." Cao Shuo said: "We are fighting back and forth, just for power, to prove that we are the strongest. What's the point of being provable? After a hundred years and thousands of years, what we have gained will only be brought to future generations, only to die out and decline, without our competition today, there will be no sadness that they will be seized by others in the future. ”
"Since you can see it so thoroughly, why do you still want to fight and win?" Yuan Shao asked: "Wouldn't it be better to give up military power and be a farmer in peace?" ”
"How many farmers have died when the troubled times have risen?" Cao Shuo smiled slightly and said to Yuan Shao: "In the era of advocating strength, if you have power and don't use it, you just blindly seek to avoid disasters, and sooner or later you will be killed like a dog." I want to live, I want everyone around me to live, and there is only one way in front of me. ”
Staring at Cao Shuo, Yuan Shao did not interrupt him.
"I'm not a bloodthirsty person, but fate has made me a butcher with blood-stained hands." Cao Shuo continued: "I don't want to see more orphans and widows in the world, but if I don't kill those people, the people who follow me will die." In order not to make the people around me cry, I can only choose to let the people who are my enemies die! ”
When he said these words, Cao Shuo's tone was very resolute.
Yuan Shao asked, "I was also your enemy, why didn't you attack me?" ”
"If it was on the battlefield, I wouldn't spare my father-in-law." Cao Shuo said: "But my father-in-law was invited by me to Shouchun, and the battle between them has ended." I have no reason to kill the loved ones who gave birth to my wife. If my father-in-law stays here, I will always be protected. ”
"What if I want to go?" Yuan Shao asked.
"I'm not going to let my father-in-law go." Cao Shuo said: "The Cao family is not in my decision, and the Cao family's army is not the only one under my command. During the Battle of Cangting, my father led the army across the Yellow River to attack the city all the way, and he had already killed the city under Yecheng. If it weren't for the lack of supplies, Yecheng at this time would already have the surname Cao. There are two and three in one, how long does the father-in-law think it will take for his father to break through Yecheng? ”
Cao Shuo and Yuan Shao were talking, and Yuan Fang had been listening to them.
From the tone of the conversation between the two, she heard something not very good.
But she didn't interject.
Yuan Fang believed that Cao Shuo, according to his rhythm, would definitely not provoke Yuan Shao into anger.
"Father-in-law." Cao Shuo's tone softened: "Actually, I didn't let you go, just because I didn't want you to bear the grief of losing Hebei." In the two major battles of Guandu and Cangting, how many soldiers and horses can Hebei recruit? Does the Yuan family still have the capital to fight back? ”
Cao Shuo asked two questions in a row, and Yuan Shao didn't know how to respond.
In the two battles of Guandu and Cangting, the foundation of the Yuan family has long been shaken, and even if he returns to Yecheng, it is impossible to organize a counteroffensive against the Cao family.
has been a minister in the same hall as Cao Cao for many years, and Yuan Shao also knows him very well.
Taking advantage of the depression of the Yuan family, not taking down the Yuan family completely is by no means Cao Cao's style.
Yuan Shao was silent, and Cao Shuo continued: "Although I have been successful in many expeditions in the past few years, I still lack experience in governing the localities. If my father-in-law is willing, I will come to my father-in-law for advice when I encounter problems that are difficult to solve in the future. Although there is no Hebei, my father-in-law has Huainan. ”
Looking at Cao Shuo in amazement, Yuan Shao asked, "Zirong...... Really ......"
Cao Shuo nodded very decisively: "Without Hebei, my father-in-law still has a home, Huainan is my father-in-law's home, Xuzhou is my father-in-law's home, and where I am is my father-in-law's home!" ”
"Zirong's intentions, I understand." Yuan Shao was silent for a moment, and said to Cao Shuo: "There are some things I want to say to Fang'er alone, and I ask Zirong to avoid it first!" ”
