Three Kingdoms: My Wife Is Diao Chan

Chapter 25 Seeing off Lao Cao
Chapter 25 Seeing off Lao Cao
Cao Chong didn't find it strange that Cao Cao ordered his troops to go out. Originally, Cao Cao was going to rebuild a special force.

Xu is the capital of the country, but it is not a place for military training. Maybe the emperor will say that Cao Cao is rebellious.

So Cao Cao could only go to other places to train his army.

It's just that the place chosen is very special, it is Cao Cao's hometown Qiao County.

Others don't understand this, but Cao Chong can see it at a glance. This is a show for Sun Quan.

The meaning is obvious. Although my old Cao was defeated, the lean camel is bigger than the horse. If you, Sun Quan, want to attack the north, you should first weigh the new army in Qiao County.

What surprised Cao Chong was that Cao Cao actually took Cao Pi with him.

Not only that, Cao Cao also asked Cao Zhi to go to Hefei to guard the north bank of the Yangtze River with Zhang Liao, and keep an eye on the situation in the east of the Yangtze River.

Cao Zhang stayed in Xudu, guarding the rear.

As for Cao Chong, the task Cao Cao gave him was to focus on the economy.

All of a sudden, the four sons had their own tasks, and they were separated separately. Cao Cao's move had a profound meaning.

What Cao Chong can think of is the position of succession.

The four sons each perform their own duties, and whoever achieves success in his position will be credited, and he will also have a certain advantage in the right of inheritance.

Of course, Cao Chong also saw something.

Lao Cao knew that his four sons did not get along, if he left and left his four sons in Xudu, it would be a genius if Xu didn't fall out.

In order to prevent the fire in the backyard, the best way is to separate the four sons.

As the saying goes, out of sight, out of mind, as long as the four sons are not together, Xu Du will be fine, and Lao Cao can train the new army with peace of mind in Qiao County.

This old Cao is really not an ordinary person.

"Since the father is going out, we as children should see the old father off." After all, Cao Cao is also Cao Chong's cheap father, and the proper etiquette is still unavoidable.

For this reason, Cao Chong planned to prepare a special gift for Cao Cao on the day of seeing him off.

On the day of Cao Cao's departure, the officials of the prime minister's mansion and the important officials of the court all went to see him off outside the city, and Cao Chong and Diao Chan were naturally among them.

It's just that others were reluctant to leave or wished again and again, but Cao Chong brought a cart full of naan. Everyone was dumbfounded when they saw something they had never seen before.

"Chong'er, what is this?" Even Cao Cao looked at the cart of naan curiously.

"Back to my father, this thing is called naan, and it's a delicacy from the Western Regions." Cao Chong replied with a bow.

"Don't look at the ugly appearance of this thing, but it is actually a treasure. This thing can be stored for up to seven days, and it is easy to carry. It doesn't need fire or stove. The soldiers will eat it when they are hungry."

"This is a necessary item for marching and fighting, and for long-distance raids."

Cao Cao was overjoyed. You must know that on the march, the most delayed thing was lighting a fire to make rice. Every time you cook rice, you have to re-start the stove, which is very troublesome.

And with this naan, food and clothing for seven days can be solved at one go, whether it is the speed of marching or sneak attack at night, it is much more convenient.

Try to think about it, the enemy army is lighting a fire to cook, and our soldiers are on the way to sneak attack, so they are full on the naan. The enemy army has not finished cooking, and our army has already killed it.

"My son has a heart, and with this thing, why not worry about the military training this time!" Cao Cao stroked Cao Chong's head, doting on him very much.

Seeing this, Cao Pi on the side felt very uncomfortable. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start, how could he keep the words in his heart.

"Father, my son has already handed over the secret of making naan to the cook in the army. This time, during the military training in Qiao County, my father will definitely train an elite army!"

The reason why Cao Chong did this was naturally his own selfishness.

Cao Pi followed Cao Cao to Qiao County to train the army. As long as Cao Cao trained the special forces, no matter whether Cao Pi contributed or not, he could get a piece of military merit.

Cao Chong didn't want Cao Pi to monopolize this kind of free pick-up.

So he made naan and provided it to the new army.

Once Cao Cao is trained as a new army, Cao Chong will also have military merits if he changes direction. If Cao Chong is in Xudu and seizes the economy again, wouldn't he have more credit than Cao Pi.

In this way, the three brothers Cao Pi can be crushed to death.

Of course, Cao Chong's purpose is not limited to this.

Making banknotes is a big project. Cao Chong was able to give it a go with Cao Cao's support. As a result, Cao Cao was going to Qiao County to train the army.

As the saying goes, when the tiger is not at home, the monkey is king.

Cao Cao was not there, and Cao Chong was worried that the court officials would not cooperate with his work, especially those thorns such as Kong Rong and Fu Wan.

What's more, Cao Zhang is still in Xudu.

If Cao Zhang joined forces with Kong Rong and the others to deliberately play tricks behind his back, Cao Chong would be very passive.

For this reason, Cao Chong needed Cao Cao to stand up for himself in front of all the officials.

Now Cao Cao is in a good mood, which is the best opportunity, "Father, you walk slowly all the way, the matter of making banknotes, my son will definitely handle it properly, and my son promises that when you come back, all the paper money will be in circulation. It's metal coins."

wow...

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar at the scene.

Everyone looked at each other, seeing shock and surprise on each other's faces.

Cao Cao chuckled, and naturally saw through Cao Chong's intentions, but he didn't expose it, but patted Cao Chong on the shoulder, "Cao Chong, my son, listen carefully, this matter is fully entrusted to you by the father."

"If someone dares to do you harm, he is doing harm to my father, and my father will absolutely forgive him!"

This seems to be said to Cao Chong, but it is actually said to all officials.

Everyone is an old fritter and an old fox in the officialdom. Everyone understands what Cao Cao said.

What a good pair of father and son, this play is flawless!

Kong Rong rolled his eyes at Cao Cao and his son.

What a Cao Chong, relying on a cart of naan, not only locked in the military merits in advance, but also got his father's platform, it is really hateful!
Cao Pi was envious and jealous.

What a husband, he got economic power from the prime minister with just some flour, which is really admirable to the slave family.

Diao Chan looked at Cao Chong affectionately with her eyes.

"Father, don't worry, making banknotes is to develop the economy and make the country prosperous and prosperous. The adults are dedicated to the country and will definitely support the child's work."

Cao Chong's words were hidden in a smile. On the surface, he was saying that the court officials were good, but in fact he told those officials that the young master made banknotes for the country. Whoever opposes you is a reactionary.

It is no different from Lu Bu.

"Please rest assured, Prime Minister and young master, as long as it is for the good of the country, we will definitely do our best." No, Shang Shuling Xun Yu spoke.

The nominal top leaders of the imperial court all supported Cao Chong in front of Cao Cao, how could the court officials dare to say a word of no.

Even if Kong Rong, Fu Wan and others have a hundred reluctances in their hearts, they can only hold it in their hearts.

"With Xun Lingjun's words, I can rest assured that I will go to Qiao County." Cao Cao cooperated with Xun Yu.

These two are the first and second in command of the Cao Wei Group. They have reached a consensus, and the matter of making banknotes is much easier.

call……

Cao Chong secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
