Chapter 3551 Thinking in the battlefield

The Danjiang River in the twilight was filled with dark red waves, like blood that was about to solidify.

Cao Ren stood on the cliff of Yingzui Bay, looking at the half-sinking and half-floating bucket below, frowned slightly. Under the moonlight, the oil-soaked reed mats in the trunk of the boat brought some oily light into the river water, refracting colorful markings.

"This won't work." Cao Ren frowned, "Please ask someone to go to the surrounding area immediately to cut reeds and arrange them around the boat! Move quickly!"

"Master, we don't have enough manpower!" The military academy said hesitantly, "The labor service has been lost too quickly over the past few days..."

"If it's not enough, go and catch it again!" Cao Ren's voice was very flat, but it was very cold, just like this cold spring night. "If it's not enough, you go and fill it in!"

Military Academy Cao Jian lowered his head slightly, answered and stepped back.

Cao Ren gritted his teeth tightly.

In his heart, he only wants victory, but only wins.

As for everything else, it is secondary.

In Cao Ren's initial plan, he just wanted to do something. He happened to have the opportunity of Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao was the leader, so everyone came together and worked together. When he was young, he never thought about failure or the current situation. At that time, even if he occasionally thought about death, he would laugh it off.

"You're going to die at first!"

At the beginning, Cao Ren and most of the Cao brothers thought so.

No one will just want to seek death at the beginning, and want to pay for their own lives and the lives of the whole family. Maybe they will retreat if they think they are too big, or they will withdraw if they think they are really not good. Anyway, there are so many princes in the world...

But Cao Ren did not expect that Cao's family could reach this point today.

When the butt controls the brain, it is not as simple as "death".

Now Cao Ren dares not think about it, nor can he think about what will happen if he fails.

Even the decaying Han Dynasty was still in high places. The more you climbed, the more corpses there were under your feet. Once Cao Ren and the Cao family stopped, the corpses that were once placed on their feet were used to climb up to the throne would become souls, pulling the Cao family into the abyss of darkness and never turning over.

Looking back now, some of the current measures seem to go against the original intention of rebellion. The original bright intention finally distorted the Cao family's journey.

Cao Ren took a deep breath.

But these are no longer something he can control, at least not something he can control alone.

Cao's family is all in this galloping carriage, and everyone has the responsibility to keep the carriage from falling apart.

Now, it's his turn to push forward...

Of course, there are eight out of ten people who are not satisfied with their life.

Cao Ren was not sure whether he could withstand the attack of the Cavalry Army.

Dan Water surged and flowed down, the two rivers converged, and the water flowed rapidly.

At this moment, Cao Ren looked at the starlight in the sky, hoping that he and his family would not fall into the boundless darkness. In order to see the light of tomorrow, he still decided to regard the lives of others as a stepping stone for him and the Cao family to not be obscured and obtain air.

"Report! The scout of the cavalry army was found in the upstream!"

The soldiers of Cao's army reported urgently.

A cold curve was pulled out of the corner of Cao Ren's mouth, and the iron armored gloves rubbed the rough rocks on the cliff. He nodded, shook the cloak, and then strode away. "The whole army is on guard! Check all the arrangements again!!"

In the light and fire he trampled on, Cao's soldiers were organizing labor to work in the darkness and coldness. The blue smoke mixed with the river fog, and the crying and shouting disturbed the air of the cold night.

Cao Ren left, but left behind labor.

When the villagers held the sickle with the gap and crawled into the reed marsh, the turbid river water was flooding their calves. Zhang Laoqi was hunching his back. As soon as the sickle had cut off three bundles of reeds, he saw half a child's body soaking in the shallows.

The child's right hand was still tightly clutching a straw rope, and his swelling skin was white and translucent, swelling like a fat baby in the New Year pictures.

Oh, half a fat doll.

"It's a sin..."

Zhang Laoqi subconsciously wanted to collect the baby's body, at least he could not continue to soak in water and become bait for fish and shrimp.

Just as he was about to reach out, the military supervisor's whip was whipping on his back.

"What are you going to do?! You must finish your work before dawn!" The military supervisor shouted, "Thank you for your hard work, don't I work hard?! Stay with you lazy people, working day and night! Who is lazy, it's just that you can't get along with me, the general, and the prime minister!"

The whipped area was broken, and the blood was winding down the back, like a dark red snake.

...

...

At night.

Cai Zhou.

"Mr. Cai, the person is here!" A servant outside the door whispered.

When the elder Cai heard this, he stood up eagerly and said, "Hurry, please come in!"

The servant outside the door turned sideways, opened the curtain, and welcomed a dusty person in.

The man took off his scarf and showed a slightly haggard face. It was Cai Mao.

『You…』 Although the elder Cai knew that Cai Mao must have avoided some people's sight when he came back, he still couldn't help but turn his head slightly and look outside, "Mao Lang, you're so adventurous!"

『Adventure?』 Cai Mao smiled and sat down, 『When isn't it a risk? When Liu Jingsheng was alive, were we as peaceful as a rock? Isn't it the same risk?"

"What's the same..." Elder Cai also sat down, waved his hand and asked his confidant to go outside to watch, "Don't let the idle people wait..."

Cai Mao reached out and signaled, "By the way, do you have any food? Take some... If you have anything, you don't need to use the stove, it's okay to be cold!"

Elder Cai also nodded and signaled his confidant to go down, his face still filled with worry, "When will the world be peaceful?"

"Ha, as long as there are ambitious people, there will be no peace in the world." Cai Mao patted on the table, "We are just seeking to survive in this turmoil."

Elder Cai fell silent and nodded.

Caizhou, Cai family.

Cai's life was born in Caizhou, and was buried in Caizhou after his death.

In later generations, it may be for mortgage loans and car loans. In the current Han Dynasty, the Cai family worked hard all their lives for Cai Zhou.

After a while, the elder's cronie brought some food, then went out again and closed the door.

Cai Mao didn't care about it either. He wiped his hands casually, and picked up the cold cake and started to chew it.

Elder Cai sat aside, frowned, and looked faintly. When Cai Mao had almost finished eating, he asked in a low voice, "I heard... Tian Zheng in Guanzhong..."

Cai Mao picked up the water bowl, drank a few sips, then put it down, and breathed a long breath, "That's true, I'm also doing this... Elder, how many days do you think Cao Jun... can last?"

Elder Cai was stunned and turned to look at Cai Mao, "What news did you get? Something happened to the prime minister? Or is there any change in Yingchuan?"

Cai Mao smiled and said, "Don't the elder know better than me? I've been in Fangling for a while!"

『To you, your Fangling..." Elder Cai asked again, 『If you are discovered...』

"I asked Sanlang to wear my armor and stick some beards..." Cai Mao waved his hand, "They couldn't find anything for a while... What if they discovered it, what can they do? How much fighting spirit does the Cao army in Fangling have?"

Elder Cai took a breath, "So, Cao... is really over?"

Cai Mao put down the water bowl and lowered his head. The sound was from the depths of his throat, like a sound that was rumbling from under the nine springs. "So what about the Prime Minister... Liu Jingsheng was still a royal family member back then..."

『This…』 Elder Cai’s eyes paused slightly, and then lowered his voice, 『This… Guanzhong, is there a surrender?』

Cai Mao said aloud, "This is why I came to find the elder..."

『No?』 Elder Cai said in surprise, 『How can he not be?』

If there is a surrender, it means that you should follow the old rules.

After all, there are certain conditions to recruit surrender, and if there are conditions, it means you can talk about it.

The Cai family and the Huang family and the Pang family have a marriage. Not only that, the Cai family and many big families in Jingzhou have one or another relationships.

It can be said that with the Cai family as a bridge, no matter who arrives in Jingzhou, it will save a lot of trouble and be much smoother, but the bridge also requires a fee...

In the later stage, in order to charge more fees, Bridge will even deliberately create some problems. This is like some games in later generations. In order to benefit and increase customer stickiness, they will deliberately use big data to make some moves. Of course, if the superior asks, Cai will be like an innocent, pure white lotus, "No, absolutely not, this is a rumor, this is slander!"

But now, Cai suddenly realized that Fei Qian was not playing this game anymore!

If you don’t play, it means you won’t continue to krypton gold!

In an instant, the sky was almost collapsed!

I was able to think about how to use games to play people, but now I have no customers!

Even though Elder Cai was so old, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional. This was not a little mahogany who screamed after recharge for dozens or hundreds of dollars, but a million customers at every turn!

Even Elder Cai was so old that he couldn't help but pat the table, "I said Maolang, your head of the family...but he was not doing well enough!"

Back then, when Cai Mao, you were the champion of the championship, agreed to you to get ahead. Now you not only can’t attract customers, but also say that customers may not be able to play anymore. How can this work?!

Cai Mao did not defend himself, but said, "This is the reason why I came to discuss with you with the elder... It is better to explain some things clearly..."

"This is not coming to surrender..." Elder Cai still felt a little angry.

After all, the Cai family was the "King Nabo" of Jingzhou back then!

It’s so shameless if you don’t come to surrender!

Cai Mao rolled his eyelids, but he was still patient. He could not leave Fangling for a long time, and some things still need to be done with the cooperation of Elder Cai.
