Follow General Cao to mix the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 436 The Third Way
He was too used to it. He listened to Cao Cao's questions, and Guo Jia's answers were all casual.

But as soon as this reason was said, Xun You, Yang Xiu and the others couldn't help showing a wicked smile on their faces. Now that Wang Zhoumu picked up the boat, it has become a routine joke among their scholar-bureaucrats. Last month At the beginning, this guy used this excuse to skip work, and he didn't see a shadow of the boat

Now they spread it by word of mouth, and it is specially used to ridicule those who are passive and sabotage.

Cao Cao also twisted his fists helplessly.

"This bastard!"

"Go, go out and have a look! See how much food Wang Zhoumu brought to Benxiang!"

Anyway, I'm at a loss now, and it's a joy to watch Wang Hou get caught blind!Except for Guo Jia who was coughing and praying to Eternal Flame for this guy not to be beaten too badly in the face, even Zhong Yao bared his teeth and walked out with Mr. Cao's ass behind.

But today is really Wang Hou's lucky day, and today the boat really came!

I don't know when I can re-enter the army. In two months, the granary has consumed [-] shi. Wang Hou, who is obsessive-compulsive, dispatched another trip. On the pier, his reserve soldiers were sent back to Qingzhou to farm and busy with spring plowing. , The militia that Mr. Cao recruited from Youzhou and Jizhou was used.

During this period of time, he did not fall, the trestle bridge made of wood went all the way to the sea, and the shocking colossus lowered its sails and docked quietly on the sea surface, braving the drizzle, and the man's body was covered with a layer of straw, Hey, hey, carrying the heavy grain baskets down, like a large group of ants.

Wang Hou would enjoy it, and even built a pavilion for himself. While huddling in the pavilion, he looked down at the account book as if he was doing the calculations, and from time to time he gave an obscene smile.

I have to mention that Wang Hou is very happy today. The war with Wuhuan is not over yet, but the war between him and the Gongsun family has already divided the kings and kings. The heavy rain also affected Liaodong, and Gongsun The family's professional troops were besieged within the Jinzhou defense wall, and the rest of the country was full of farmers and soldiers. In March, Liaodong will also start spring plowing!

Zhao Yun’s cavalry don’t even have to go to war, they can just walk around the edge of your county. He is like a broom star. When he sees him, the natives of Liaodong have to beat the gongs and drums, and all the scholars and people retreat to the county. He didn't dare to show his face until his cavalry crossed the border.

But once or twice, one day Zhao Yun is like a professional jungler, grabbing up and down the road ten times and eight times before the hoe is rotated, and he has to run away before the seeds are sown. So much time for farming, who can stand it?
Ever since, Niu coaxed himself to call himself Pingzhou Mu, and Gongsun Kang of the Marquis of Yan was persuaded, and sent people to Dalian Jiao to negotiate a peace. Not to mention that no food was looted, the envoy had to mourn and was willing to offer [-] shi of grain and some special mountain products from Liaodong. In order to redeem Gongsun Zhi's troops who were trapped in Jinzhou, were half-starved and had no combat effectiveness.

If this didn't put a stern mark on him, Wang Hou wouldn't call himself Wang Tiangao!Just accompany [-] shi of grain?To send the beggars!Those who are poor and have no money will cede their land!It happens to be only one Liaodong corner, and it is still too narrow to entrust those barons, so let’s split it in half from Liaohe, exactly half of you and half of me. I believe Gongsun Kang will be very "happy" and even "grateful" to thank himself "" Be magnanimous"!

But just when Wang Houle's back molars were all exposed, a sudden cough sounded beside him, which made him drop his notebook in fright, and screamed furiously.

"That bastard..., the lord who is full of lordship, makes the lower official feel majestic and majestic from afar. It turns out that it is the prime minister, you old scum! Why didn't you inform the lower official when you came! The lower official will sweep the couch to welcome you!"

A big man can't do anything without politics. Wang Hou came here with a kingly air, and several senior officials of the loyal family clearly frowned. However, Cao Cao was willing to listen to the faint political hints of these words. Seeing this guy clasping his fists and bowing down sadly, Cao Cao laughed and shook his head and cursed.

"Ru Qingzhou Wang Dazhou Mu welcomes the boat to send him every day. He is busier than the truth. He didn't participate in the military discussion before. How can the truth remind him to disturb Zhou Mu?"

"Prime Minister, you have wronged me as an official! The face of a humane woman is like the sky on the sea, and you can turn it over if you say it! The customs and conditions of the sea can affect the arrival time of the grain ship. Besides, the official is just a grain official, not as good as everyone Cai, I can’t make any good plans for the prime minister, so I can only stand by the sea conscientiously and raise food for the prime minister to show my loyalty!”

Holding his fists together, Wang Hou was talking nonsense for a while, and his posture was so charming that he almost licked a dog!But others are licking the dog until they have nothing after doing it. He is licking and licking, and he has a house, a car, a ticket, and a wife!Listening to his nonsense, Mr. Cao was a little dizzy, he just shook his head helplessly, and with his sleeves waving, he went out of Wang Hou's small pavilion to avoid the rain.

If I could serve the leader like this before, wouldn't I be a manager already?

Admiring himself in his heart, under the contemptuous eyes of Zhuge Ying, Guo Jia and the others, Wang Hou took another umbrella and quickly put it on his father-in-law's head.

"Prime Minister, this is my Qingzhou No. [-] sea-going ship. It uses [-] materials. It is [-] feet long and has a draft of [-] meters. It can carry ten thousand stones of grain and grass at a time. It is a lot of technical bacteria!"

After all, Mr. Cao personally came to arrest him for skipping work. Wang Hou also felt guilty. In order not to hit his butt, he watched Cao Cao look at his tall and mighty sailing boat with great interest. Let's blow together.

However, these words hit the point, staring at the sea ship Rizhao, suddenly thoughtful, Cao Cao's expression also became serious.

"A while ago you went to Wu County to "borrow food", and you took this kind of big boat?"

"Back to the Prime Minister, that's exactly it!"

If he didn't even know about such a major event as Wang Hou and Dong Wu's fighting, Cao Cao would not be able to reach the status of the world's hero today, and Wang Hou never thought of hiding it from him. Listening to the question, he answered very directly.

"That time, how many people did you bring?"

"Soldiers and horses..., uh, the guard of honor is [-], and the servants are [-]. Zhou Gongjin admired the prime minister for a long time, and heard that the prime minister borrowed food, and in addition mobilized tens of thousands of servants from Wu County. Only then did the subordinate officials carry the food and grass. It is really a sin to claim credit for Chaisang Governor Zhou Yu!"

"This time you came to Liaodong, how many troops did you bring?"

"Forehead……"

He was still making jokes there, but suddenly Cao Cao turned around and stared at him fiercely. Hearing those hasty words, Wang Hou's heart trembled suddenly. He was not stupid. The two questions were superimposed. If he couldn't figure out what Cao Cao was thinking, he wouldn't have to mess around in the officialdom of the big man.

The old face suddenly turned sad, and Wang Hou couldn't help but answer sadly.

"Bring... 5000 corps and [-] strong men! Prime Minister, don't you want to..."

Holding his chin, Cao Cao's expression became more and more dignified as he looked at the large ships moored in the port, which were still ups and downs in the green and rainy colors.
