Chapter 115 Enable
Even in modern time and space, the meaning of the talisman car and ship is subversive.
Cao Mengde had no reason to not pay attention to it.
Although there are no conditions to manufacture talisman cars and ships on a large scale, just as Zhao Yu suggested to him, he has begun to prepare for this major event that can change the entire era little by little.
However, the prospects are bright, but the roads are tortuous and rough.
The biggest problem we are facing now is the inscribed Taoist patterns.
Although it took Cao Ang and other disciples to learn how to engrave the Dao pattern in just one month, they were taught by Zhao Yu step by step. They also used Daoyin to guide and inspire it.
Otherwise, teaching like an ordinary teacher will not necessarily make any achievements in three to five years.
A simple pattern that is simple from the talisman is to be engraved successfully. The meticulousness of the hair can almost make people scratch their heads. Cao Ang and others left the courtyard and returned to Puyang. Cao Mengde began to cultivate talents who engraved the Taoist patterns, carefully selected dozens of people, and taught by Cao Ang and others. In a month, except for being able to draw a rough picture, it is no different from not learning.
This made Cao Mengde confused until Zuo Ci and Yu Ji came to him. He had a sudden idea and thought that maybe the Taoist priest could be used to complete this process?
In Cao Mengde's opinion, there were few Taoist priests in the world who could not draw talismans. They started learning to draw talismans shortly after they started. Although they were all deceptive things, they had related basic skills. He immediately put his ideas on the two old Taoist priests.
Otherwise, how could it be easy to take them to Taihe Villa?
Taoists were casual and carefree. Cao Mengde didn't feel that his next order would come to the world. What he wanted was the reputation of these two old Taoists. As long as these two old Taoists spoke, the problem would be solved.
As for whether these two old Taoists would really get the immortal connection from Zhao Yu, Cao Mengde never thought about it.
Regarding the key to the cultivation of immortality, Zhao Yu once told Cao Mengde. More importantly, Cao Mengde learned from Cao Ang and others that Cai Yan did not cultivate immortality. Even Cai Yan, Zhao Yu's wife, could not cultivate immortality. How could two foreign Taoist priests have the blessing?
It was so easy, Cao Mengde, without saying a word, left these three states and several counties, turned around and went to the other courtyard, and could not come out in his whole life.
What a shrewd person Cao Mengde!
Xun Yu said: "Mr. Zhao said that practicing is not easy, and it seems that there is a certain nature, and hundreds of millions of people may not necessarily have one. If the two Taoist priests Zuo Ci and Yu Ji return in disappointment, and then escape into the mountains but live in survivors, wouldn't the lord's intention be wasted?"
Cao Mengde slid his beard and laughed: "I can't get a waterfall, I can't get a waterfall. Wen If you don't understand Mr. Zhao, don't worry, Mr. Zhao will definitely help me."
Xun Yu really didn't know Zhao Yu very much, but Cao Mengde knew it very well.
He knew that Zhao Yu would definitely guess his intention and then help him.
"By the way." Cao Mengde said: "What is the situation in Guanzhong now?"
Xun Yu said: "Is the lord asking about the talent?"
Cao Mengde slapped his forehead and said, "Yes."
Then he said to the outsider: "Dian Wei, please invite Mr. Xi quickly."
In a short while, the opera arrived.
Cao Mengde was a political strongman, and he was able to play with his emperor's minds. He distributed his power well. In terms of military planning, he was mainly based on Xi Zhicai, Xun You. Xi Zhicai was in the dark, Xun You was in the bright. In terms of politics, Xun Yu was in the head and Cheng Yu and others were auxiliary. Now he is gradually separated, and both sides do their own things, and the two have nothing to do with each other.
"Master."
Xi Zhicai was so energetic that he bowed.
His patients have been cured and he is healthy. Now he is energetic and has better complexion than many ordinary people.
"sit."
Cao Mengde signaled him to sit down and said, "What is the situation in Guanzhong?"
Xi Zhicai smiled and said, "The situation is great."
He said: "Because the lord went to Taihe Villa, I planned to report to you tomorrow."
It was a coincidence that Cao Mengde left at this time just when the news came back. Xi Zhi received the letter and should have come to see Cao Mengde immediately, but Cao Mengde went to Taihe Villa, so he planned to talk about it tomorrow. Unexpectedly, Cao Mengde came back soon and sent Dian Wei to invite him.
"The relevant tips were sent to Zihe General Office in writing."
Xi Zhicai said: "First, General Lu Bu arrived in Hanoi half a month ago and said that Zhang Yang and Zhang Yang hesitated for several days and had agreed to submit. Because the lord asked to remain the same, he could not come to Puyang to meet his lord in person."
Cao Mengde was overjoyed: "Have Zhang Yang surrendered?!"
Xi Zhicai smiled and said, "The lord is very capable. If he doesn't accept it, wouldn't he be seeking death?"
Cao Mengde shook his head and laughed: "I pulled up Mr. Zhao's tiger skin, of course he dared not not to submit."
Then he turned around and said, "Since Zhang Yang surrendered, what are Lu Bu doing now?"
"General Lu Bu has been reorganizing his army for half a month. He can send troops to Hedong just by waiting for the lord's order."
"Okay!" Cao Mengde stroked his hands and said, "Where is Huguan? Bingzhou must be strictly guarded."
"Zhang Yang is also quite close to Huguan and has heavy troops to guard it. Now he is in charge of General Lu Bu."
"Very good." Cao Mengde breathed: "I'll send Lu Bu a message later, and let him wait for the battle and listen to the orders of the Hou Jun."
"yes."
"What about Guanzhong? What about Jia Wenhe?"
Xi Zhicai laughed: "Mr. Jia is extraordinary. He started to do it from the beginning and the princes of Xiliang in Guanzhong have become water and fire. With just one word from the lord, he can ignite this fire and burn it all over Guanzhong."
"It's mainly the emperor." Cao Mengde nodded slightly: "The emperor cannot have any trouble."
Xi Zhicai said: "Jia Wenhe Yan said that he had won the trust of the emperor. Even if the chaos in Guanzhong is in danger, he can still protect the emperor's safety."
"Tsk, this Jia Wen and I am as Mr. Zhao said, "Cao Mengde praised softly: "I heard that the emperor is ruthless and difficult to get along with, but he can win the trust of the emperor in just one month. It is indeed not something that ordinary people can do."
"Now that the situation is ready, Wenruo thought, when will I do it?" Cao Mengde turned to ask Xun Yu.
Although Xun Yu was in charge of the government and was not involved in military affairs, Xun Yu himself was a strategist, so how could he be unfamiliar with military affairs?
Seeing Cao Mengde ask him, he said, "March is now the spring plowing season. Guanzhong is already the item in his lord's bag, so it cannot be destroyed too much. You might as well wait for the spring plowing and enter the summer season before sending troops to Guanzhong to avoid the damage to the spring plowing and is not conducive to governance."
Cao Mengde really laughed: "Wen Ruo knew me!"
So he said, "Then May!"
He said firmly: "This time I sent troops to Guanzhong, I want Sun Bofu to lead the troops. What do you think of the two gentlemen?"
Xun Yu smiled and said, "It's the best. Lu Bu can use it, why can't Sun Ce use it?"
Cao Mengde said: "However, I use Lu Bu and Sun Ce, and Yuan Rang Miaocai has some opinions."
Xun Yu shook his head and laughed: "It is important to send troops to Guanzhong, but it is even more important to guard against Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu. If you can't take Guanzhong, you will have two or three chances. But if you can't defend against Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, you will have to damage your foundation."
Cao Mengde smiled.
"Well said it, then use Sun Ce!"
He clapped his hands and said decisively.
Xi Zhicai reminded on the side: "Sun Ce can do it, but he and Zhou Yu must be used separately. It would be a big deal, and these two people cannot be together."
Cao Mengde nodded repeatedly: "What Zhicai reminded me is that I almost forgot. How about letting Zhou Yu preside over the training of the navy? Although the talisman warship is still early, the navy has to be put on the agenda."
