Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 31
After eating a bowl of yellow soup, Cao Bing's chatterbox immediately opened up.

Afterwards, the blah blah blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

During the period, there were several crooked buildings, and it was not until Cao Cao had no choice but to interrupt that he returned to the theme.

After listening to all this, when Cao Cao looked at Wu Liang again, his eyes were more surprised and appreciative, and he sighed with a smile: "I didn't expect that the process of digging the tomb would be so tortuous, let alone that there were hidden treasures in the little Tuan army. Such a strange man is indeed my luck, Cao Jun."

"The envoy's absurd praise, I dare not be a villain."

Wu Liang had already thought about how to behave in front of Cao Cao in order to win the favor of this great hero, so he hurriedly got up and prayed in fear.

As we all know, Boss Cao is a very complicated person.

He is suspicious, vicious and cruel by nature, but he is also a man of talent, a man who knows people and does things well.

When he became vicious, even his favorite concubine, personal guard, or even a talented counselor who had made great achievements, Cao Cao would also kill him.

But sometimes, he is so tolerant to people that ordinary people can't understand.

Is this person complicated?
Do you feel a little like accompanying a king like a tiger?

But in fact, if you study Cao Cao carefully, you will find that he is not as capricious as you imagined.

Wu Liang felt that Cao Cao's code of conduct can be summed up in a simple sentence: "I would rather blame others than others." This code can be applied to almost all the decisions of Cao Cao's life.

That is to say, as long as you show no ambitions and are talented enough, you can give Boss Cao a minimum of awe... In short, as long as you don't make Cao Cao feel that your existence may threaten his power and status.

Then you can live a good life, and you can also be reused, and even pampered like protecting your shortcomings.

On the contrary, you have only one dead end.

Among the people Cao Cao killed, Yang Xiu was a typical death case.

Among the people Cao Cao reused, Xu Chu is a typical success case, of course, Sima Yi can also be counted as one of them.

Xu Chu's success was bought with strength and life.

This Wu Liang did not intend to copy.

But Sima Yi's method of "showing weakness" can be used as a reference...

"It's worth it!"

Cao Cao immediately said loudly, "You don't know how timely you appeared, and you don't even know how important the gold brought back by the Li army has played... In short, you have made a great contribution this time, and I will definitely reward you heavily. Tell me, what reward do you want?"

"uncle……"

Cao Ti still remembers the promise he made to Wu Liang when he was in Dangshan, that he should speak out Rang Xian's thoughts.

Unexpectedly, Wu Liang was ahead of him, raised his head and said, "Your Majesty, does your Majesty know that I am a deserter?"

Cao Ting must not be allowed to speak out this idea first, otherwise Cao Cao would probably think that Cao Ting had connected with him, and would be worried that he would lose the absolute control of the Tuan Army because of this.

"deserter?"

Cao Cao was slightly taken aback after hearing this.

Cao Ting also looked puzzled.

Talented brother, what's the matter with you?

Why are you bringing this up so suddenly?
In this way, how can I mention to my uncle that I am better than you?
"Exactly."

But Wu Liang nodded, and said with a lowered eyebrow, "When I followed Bai Rao in Puyang as a black bandit in the early years, I made Jun's army overwhelm the situation. During the battle, I smeared the blood of my comrades on my face and hid under the corpse to pretend to be dead." I only escaped a catastrophe, and later I heard that the envoy not only did not kill the captives, but gave them food, I hurried back and surrendered, and I have been a soldier under the envoy's command ever since."

"Later, when the envoy sent troops to Yanzhou to attack the Yellow Turban bandits, they would fight day and night. I hid a broken arrow in my body. Whenever I went into battle, I would find a place where there were dead people and dip the broken arrow in it when the supervising army was not paying attention. I lay down and pretended to be dead with blood pressed on my chest, and then I got up and went back to the camp to have a meal and rest when the gold was called.

"Later, when Shijun and Yuan Shu fought in Kuangting, I came up with a new method..."

"Forget it, I don't care if I don't mention this new method. I used it once and was arrested. I was almost forced to enforce the military law by the supervising army. Fortunately, the head of the village at that time was from the same town as me, and he saved me from death by interceding for me. Since then, I have been banished as a slave and worked as a coolie for several months, and finally I was assigned to the Huren Army to continue working as a coolie..."

"Hahahaha!"

Hearing this, Cao Cao couldn't help laughing out loud, instead of blaming him, he joked with interest as if he was looking at an old wretch, "You can pretend to be dead in such a variety of ways, and you can say it so freshly." Refreshing, you are really a wonderful person."

"Your Majesty, please don't laugh. As the saying goes, it is better to live than to die. I don't have any big ambitions. I just don't want to die. I don't know what you know. Now I am the only seedling left in my family. .”

As he spoke, Wu Liang looked at Cao Cao expectantly again, bowed deeply and begged, "If your envoy really wants to reward me, please erase my status as a slave, and arrange for me another place where there is no danger and can support my family." The villain is already grateful for the idle errands of life."

"In this way, wouldn't it bury your talent?"

Cao Cao finally put away his smile, and asked sternly, "Besides, what kind of reward is this? All the generals know that I have clear rewards and punishments. Now that you have made extraordinary achievements, but I am so perfunctory, won't the hearts of the generals be chilled?"

"This……"

Immediately, Wu Liang became terrified again, looking restless.

However, at this moment, he was overjoyed in his heart. Asking such a question was enough to prove that Cao Cao had already entered the Tao, and at least he let go of part of his guard against this stranger.

Since Cao Cao doesn't want to bury his ability, then he will definitely be able to stay in the Huan army.

As for the rewards, since they will not be perfunctory, they will definitely not be less... As far as Wu Liang knows, Cao Cao has been extremely generous in rewarding his subordinates for meritorious service in history.

"What my uncle said is very true. The most lacking thing in the Turen Army at the moment is a talent like Wu Liang. With him in the Turen Army, we will be able to get twice the result with half the effort."

Cao Ting didn't expect the conversation to turn back inexplicably. Although he didn't understand what was going on, he was pleasantly surprised and quickly seized the opportunity to speak for Wu Liang.

Cao Cao didn't answer Cao Zhi's words, instead he looked at Wu Liang with a half-smile and asked, "I just heard that you want to carry on the family line for your ancestors?"

This building is crooked...

Wu Liang vaguely sensed that something was wrong, but he could only say "yes" with his hands.

"Filial piety is a good thing! I will reward you ten beauties, is it enough for you to carry on your family?"

Cao Cao said immediately.
