Chapter 455: Captive
As mentioned earlier, Cao Cao may sometimes "rather teach me to bear the world than teach the world to bear me", but other times, or even more often, Cao Cao is "rather teach the world to bear me than to teach me to bear the world".
Cao Cao has always been eager to be virtuous, in line with the idea that I show people with sincerity, and people will treat me with sincerity, thinking that as long as I treat the people below with a sincere heart, these subordinates will not betray him Cao Cao.
But the betrayal of Zhang Miao and Chen Gong made Cao Cao realize that people are not such simple creatures, maybe the relationship between them is not false at all, but this does not become a reason why the other party will not betray! For example, whether it is Ding Yuan or Dong Zhuo, aren't they treating Lu Bu with sincerity? But in the end, they were killed by Lu Bu.
So it's not the feelings that matter, it's the character of that person that matters! If it is Guan Yu who is affectionate and righteous, then there is no problem with talking to him about feelings; can be replaced by the ruthless and unrighteous Lu Bu, if you talk to him about your feelings, you can't talk to him about your feelings, you can only talk to him about your strength! In addition, there are also some principled people, such as Zhao Yun, when Zhao Yun's principles are violated, it is useless to talk to him about feelings.
Therefore, the choice of how to make a decision varies from person to person. Guo Jia's casual words directly triggered Cao Cao's thinking. That's right, the timing of surrender is also a rare opportunity to test and test, and we must take advantage of such an opportunity in the future to strictly control it, although it is impossible to do this for everyone, but at least we must understand the nature of those talents who can enter the core class! Only in this way can we prevent the recurrence of situations like Chen Gong and Zhang Miao.
"What Bong Hyo said makes sense. Then we will take advantage of the darkness tonight to send men to dig a pit outside the camp secretly, and tomorrow we will secretly ambush the hookers inside. Then you go to war as usual. After that, he pretended to be defeated and fled back. If the other party catches up. Then let him come back and have a cup of tea with me. Cao Cao commanded.
"Yes!"
Day 2.
Dian Wei continued to fight, and the strong man responded as usual.
The two fought in front of the battle as always, but when they reached about thirty rounds, Dian Wei pretended to be defeated and turned around and fled. The strong man who was suspected of Xu Chu really didn't hesitate to laugh directly and chased after him.
In this world, all the extremely brave people seem to have few strategies, almost all of them have well-developed limbs and simple minds. Foolhardy. Needless to say, even if it is Guan Yu, he has extreme weaknesses in his personality, and his arrogance is not under Lu Bu! Although Zhao Yun is a little normal, he is only calmer, and he is far from being strategic.
There are very few people like those who use soldiers like gods and are extremely brave themselves. Sure enough, God is fair. People are smart. If you have no last resort, and you are invincible in the world, you can only be the protagonist in YY's novel.
And Xu Chu can definitely be called a representative of well-developed limbs and a simple mind. Otherwise, how can it be said that the tiger is "crazy".
So, Xu Chu, okay. The strong man who was suspected of being Xu Chu finally took the man and the horse and fell directly into the pit. was bound by a hook hand to see Cao Cao.
"Let go of me! Vile! I thought you could be regarded as a good man, but I didn't expect to be this kind of person! ”
Cao Yingzhong. The strong man scolded as he struggled. The scolding was naturally Dian Wei, and now he must have reacted, why did the person who had not been able to defeat for several days suddenly be defeated today. It turns out that everything is a trap!
The strong man always thought that Dian Wei was the general of this army, so he thought that this deceitful plan was naturally the master of Dian Wei. Of course, this is true, who would have thought that a higher-level leader would come to inspect it. If it was Dian Wei himself, it was obviously impossible to use such means.
When Cao Cao saw the strong man, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly drank the sergeant and personally untied him, of course, Dian Wei must have been by his side. At this moment, even the most stupid person can obviously see that Cao Cao is the person in charge here, not the Dian Wei who has been fighting him.
"Which one are you?" The strong man asked Cao Cao directly.
Cao Cao didn't look angry at all, but replied with a smile,
"I'm Cao Cao."
The answer is very simple, after all, there are still a few people in the world who don't know him Cao Cao. Of course, if the other party really doesn't know, then Cao Cao said too much in vain.
"You're that Yanzhou assassin Cao Cao?!" The strong man shouted with some surprise, although because of the "Cao" banner, this person knew that it was Cao Cao's army who was fighting with him, but he did not expect to see Cao Cao himself.
"That's right, I'm Cao Cao." Cao Cao nodded back. Then he introduced to the strong man, "This one who has been fighting against the strong man is Dian Wei, the general who has the first armed force in our army. Deliberately emphasizing Dian Wei's first force, it is obvious that Cao Cao is complimenting the strong man who has tied with Dian Wei on the side.
"This is the military advisor Guo Jia."
Guo Jia's eyelids jumped when he heard this, hey, such a simple introduction, without adding a prefix of 'our army's intelligence first'. Isn't it easy for people to mistakenly think that the previous tricks were all made by him Guo Jia? After all, he's the only one here, right? Have you become a professional back to the black pot?
"Oh." The strong man replied and didn't say anything more. Looking at this, Cao Cao obviously took a fancy to him, cough cough, he wanted to surrender to him. Cao Cao is the assassin of Yanzhou, an official figure, not a thief, and now he wants to recruit him, so there is no danger, so what should be done, the strong man does not look restrained at all.
Cao Cao asked people to take clean clothes for the strong man, and prepared wine and food, and after everyone was seated, he asked,
"I don't know who the strong man's surname is? Where are the people? ”
The strong man replied,
"I am a native of Qiaoguo County, surnamed Xu, named Chu, and the word Zhongkang."
Guo Jia's eyes lit up next to him, and it was really Xu Chu! This "cute" little tiger can't escape his palm!
"Because I am often harassed by thieves, I gathered hundreds of people from my clan and built a strong wall in this Gepiwu to defend against the enemy." Xu Chu explained the reason why he gathered here, and at the same time told Cao Cao that he was a good citizen, not some mountain king who occupied the mountain. There is no way, ordinary people are like this when they see officials, even Xu Chu is not exempt from vulgarity.
Then, the more Xu Chu talked, the more he rose, as if he had completely forgotten his identity as a captive, as if he had just come to a party and drank and farted with his friends.
"I tell you, one day when tens of thousands of thieves came to attack us, I was so exhausted that I ran out of arrows, so I ordered some stones to be moved. As long as the enemy soldiers dared to rush over, I repelled them with flying stones, and hit them until the enemy did not dare to approach, and finally had to retreat! Xu Chu patted his thigh and preached at Cao Cao and the others.
"Awesome!" Cao Cao responded with great interest.
"Another time, there was no food in the dock, so we had to make peace with the thieves and exchange our cattle for their rice. After the exchange, the oxen were scurrying around and running everywhere, and I rushed up directly, grabbed the tails of the two oxen, and dragged the two oxen upside down for more than a hundred steps. Haha, when those thieves saw it, they were so scared that they didn't even dare to take the cattle and ran away. Xu Chu continued to "brag". (To be continued......)
