Chapter 24 Entrained Selfishness

When the sky turned white, Wu Liang and others finally gained some strength.

At this time, they were already in the military tent, and Cao Zhen was waiting there personally.

During this process, through Wu Liang's dictation, he had roughly understood a series of their subsequent encounters. Especially after hearing the horror of Jian, he was often speechless.

"It's really scary that such a ferocious beast was born in the tomb! It seems that robbing a tomb is not easier than leading an army to fight. Today I have learned a lot. After I get back, I will ask the envoy to stop this job."

Cao Zhen immediately expressed his attitude very truthfully, but then he looked at Wu Liang and said with a smile, "But the talented and wise brother is different from me. You are a person with extraordinary talents. In my opinion, you are the leader."

I am the best candidate for the Hu army, and I will definitely recommend you to the envoy to take over this position."

This should be regarded as repaying kindness with hatred, right?

The soldiers stopped talking and looked at Cao Chen with strange expressions, and then looked at Wu Liang sympathetically, but they did not dare to say anything.

"Thanks to the military commander for being so considerate."

Wu Liangze did not refuse, but stood up and thanked him.

From seeking an official position for him before, to directly offering talents to make him the boss of the Hu army, this is undoubtedly a big step. For Wu Liang, who is still just a slave without basic human rights, it is natural.

A good thing that reaches the sky in one step.

If he can really succeed, he will be able to stand firm instantly.

And he knew that after this incident, Cao Cao would definitely further increase his reliance and investment in the Hu army. Otherwise, in historical records, the "Mojin Colonel" who had a higher rank than the military commander, and the "Mojin Colonel" who was directly named a general.

Where does "Faqiu Zhonglangjiang" come from?

In comparison, the dangers encountered in tomb robbing are not unacceptable.

After all, this is what he is most interested in. Although he was scared when he was in the tomb before and even fell into danger many times, looking back now, he feels a little exciting... Moreover, risks and opportunities coexist. This trip

His gains are not small either.

For example: that mysterious snare drum.

When he narrated the encounter in the tomb to Cao Chen just now, he deliberately downplayed the existence and role of the snare drum and did not draw Cao Chen's attention to it.

The six soldiers next to him didn't know whether they didn't think much about it because the situation was critical at that time, or because they deliberately helped Wu Liang conceal it when he didn't mention it. In short, they all cooperated with him in a tacit understanding and did not interrupt.

With this thought in mind, Wu Liang picked up the small drum placed next to him and said to Cao Chen, "Marquis, please take a look. When I was in the tomb, I saw that this small drum was quite exquisite, so I took it out."

"It's exquisite, but what's so special about it?"

Cao Xun looked at the snare drum attentively and asked curiously.

"I didn't find anything strange about him, but I was quite pleased with him when I first met him, and I felt that he was destined to me."

Wu Liang said again.

"Since it is destined for you and it is not a valuable thing, you can keep it for your own use."

Cao Zhen smiled after hearing this, waved his hand and said.

"Thank you, Junhou."

Wu Liang nodded slightly, decisively took back the snare drum, then clasped his fists and said, "Marquis, I have something to report."

"But it doesn't matter."

Cao Chen smiled.

"Take them all out."

Wu Liang turned to look at the six soldiers, winked and said.

"yes."

The six soldiers understood and took out the gold objects hidden in their arms and placed them in front of Cao Zhen.

Seeing the surprise on Cao Chun's face, Wu Liang took advantage of the situation and continued: "Jun Hou, they brought these gold objects out of the tomb at the risk of their lives. Even if they almost died many times, they refused to let go, just to show their respect to Jun Hou and

I was very moved by the loyalty of the commander, so I boldly asked the military commander to reward them with part of it, and it was not in vain for their sincerity."

These gold vessels were completely extra income. Although Cao Zhen was pleasantly surprised, he really didn't mind being generous to others, so he immediately said: "It's a reward! If you each pick one, you don't have to report it. The rest will be included in the book."

"

"Thank you, Junhou."

The six soldiers were overjoyed. After thanking them, they rushed forward to pick up the heaviest item, took out a small item and put it in their arms.

This is called reciprocating love.

These soldiers had a tacit understanding with Wu Liang, and they shared hardships with him in the tomb. Wu Liang would not treat them badly, either emotionally or rationally. In this way, no one would suffer any loss, wouldn't it be nice?

"You have done a great job this time, so you should be rewarded."

Cao Zhen then picked out two more gold items and handed them to Wu Liang.

"Thank you, Junhou."

Naturally, Wu Liang would not be polite to him, so he flattened him decisively and put him in his arms.

"Aha--"

At this point, Cao Zhen finally stretched out comfortably and said energetically, "Now that the things entrusted to you have been completed, I have finally let go of my hanging heart. It's time for me to return to my command.

, I have ordered others to get ready to leave, you also need to pack up quickly, we will leave here in half an hour."

"Wait a minute!"

Wu Liang suddenly raised another objection at this time.

"how?"

Cao Chen said strangely.

"Marquis, the tomb robbery must have a beginning and an end. We disturbed the tomb owner's purity and borrowed the tomb owner's gold. I'm afraid it would be inappropriate if we left right now. We may be entangled by the tomb owner in the future."

Wu Liang said.

"Hiss...what you said makes some sense, so what should I do according to what you see?"

Cao Xun frowned and thought for a moment, then finally asked.

"In my humble opinion, the diamond wall should be rebuilt for the owner of the tomb and then filled with soil."

Wu Liang said seriously.

"This move will take a lot of time and may cause changes..."

Cao Zhen said hesitantly, Cao Cao was still waiting for him to go back to replenish his military pay.

"No need."

Wu Liang had an idea early on, and immediately added, "If the military commander entrusts this matter to me, it can be completed in just one day. Even if the soldiers have time to sleep well tonight to recuperate, it will be more secure to start their troops early tomorrow morning.

"

"Okay! In this case, you will be responsible for this matter. If you have any needs, just come to me!"

Cao Chun was overjoyed when he heard this and immediately made the decision.

However, Cao Chen didn't know that Wu Liang took the initiative to ask Ying to do this, but he also had some selfish motives.

In order to increase the possibility of the cultural relics in the tomb of King Xiao of Liang being preserved to future generations, he planned to use local materials to build a diamond wall with anti-theft function for the tomb of King Xiao of Liang...

This sounds complicated, but it's actually very simple.

This diamond wall only needs to be piled up randomly using the stones dug out by the Hu army when digging tombs. The more chaotic the better, and even the crumbling effect is better, and then it can be returned to the earth.

This anti-theft method has been used in tombs as early as the Spring and Autumn Period.

If someone comes to rob the tomb after the Hu army has left, and they dig out this diamond wall, they only need to pull out a piece of rock, and the entire diamond wall will collapse.

A large number of rocks falling down can bury a small gang of tomb robbers in an instant!

As for the more professional archaeological team, they are always cautious during excavations. Even an ordinary brick and stone must be carefully cleaned and inspected. They rarely venture in, so it is naturally difficult to get caught.

In fact, Wu Liang is not discriminating against anyone.

Unfortunately, most of the small tomb-robbing teams only have profit in their eyes. Not only do they wantonly destroy important cultural relics that are "worthless" in their eyes, some people also sell important national treasures overseas, which is really hateful.
