Chapter 6583 Pig!
Sometimes it is not important whether it is true destiny. What is important is whether others believe it or not. How can we say the opportunity Ardashir seized this time? At least the descendants of Central Asia must believe it if they don’t believe it because there is no choice.
Under too difficult conditions, people always need some support, either belief, belief, or illusory hope. In short, they need such things to hold on.
Ardashir's attack at this point in time, at least he can afford the vague hope of the descendants of Central Asia when they have no choice.
When humans have hope and when there is no hope, they are completely different.
"Ardashir, who cannot defeat Kandahar and trapped Kabul, is simply nonsense when talking about the so-called hope." Chen Xi said calmly. Under the plot of Zhu Helai and Tavasdes, Ardashir's last chance to turn the tables.
It can be said that if Ardashir really captured Kabul, Kandahar, and Baktra Mountain City at that time, it would be really a big trend. After all, these places combined, relying on the dangers of mountains and rivers, and relying on the Kushan side, it would be difficult for the Han Dynasty to defeat them. It would be impossible to seize one or two opportunities in the future.
However, that time, due to Chen Zhong's quick backstab and Ma Chao traveled thousands of miles to intercept Ardashir, the original strategy collapsed directly. Ardashir only got to Kabul. Although this was several times better than that of the Caucasus, he was only in a corner.
The same goes for that, even if Cao Cao's command was attacked, as long as he defended Kandahar, no matter how much Ardashir won, he would not be able to change the ending.
The danger of mountains and rivers is a good thing for Ardashir, but it also restricts Ardashir's expansion. Just like ancient China, after it develops to a certain extent, it will be bound by the protection of China's mountains and rivers.
"You all look down on Cao Sikong so much?" Jia Xu glanced at Chen Xi and asked.
"Although I don't like Cao Sikong's character and style very much, the people under Cao Sikong are indeed capable people. I have always believed that Cao Sikong can break through Kabul and Khyber." Chen Xi said calmly, "At most it's just a matter of time."
Why did Cao Cao be placed in Beigui? Because in the early days, only Liu Bei and Cao Cao were able to stand firm in Beigui, and other forces could not withstand it.
Thinking about Zhuge Liang going out to Qishan, you will know that although the mountain roads in the Qinling Mountains are difficult to walk, there is still a clear gap compared to the natural dangers of Beigui. Therefore, when facing such dangers of mountains and rivers, there is no hard press, and Beigui can only use more power.
"That's what you all think?" Jia Xu said with a sneer.
"I think you have passed a little. Cao Sikong's ability is trustworthy, but if you have so many things, you still trust it. Then you have underestimated the people of the world. Aldashir is also waiting for the opportunity." Jia Xu sneered, "The dangers of mountains and rivers in Kandahar are indeed powerful, but people's hearts are the final barrier. Cao Sikong has lost people's hearts."
Chen Xi's face darkened when he heard this, but he did not deny Jia Xu's judgment. When Jia Xu did not involve himself, all plans were perfect. When it involved himself, all self-protection plans were also perfect. This is such a perfect counselor.
"I'm worried that Cao Sikong can't defend Kandahar, especially this time." Jia Xu said seriously, "It's not that Xun Yu, Xun You and the others are not strong, but that they have fallen into a dilemma of human hearts. Moreover, as Arda Hill shows some characteristics, Cao Sikong's foundation is naturally exposed, and these will be fatal."
Chen Xi looked solemn when he heard this. After hearing Jia Xu's words, he had to admit that what the other party said was very reasonable. Indeed, if Ardashir showed a heroic side, it would be possible to shake the foundation of Kandahar, especially when Cao Cao was indeed unwilling to the hearts of the people.
"Sir Jia, in fact, what you said is based on Ardashir's destiny, so that's how it is." Zhuge Liang stopped the work, sat upright and spoke to Jia Xu.
"But in the current situation, Ardashir seized the opportunity. Even if he had no destiny, after standing up, the resting remnants of Central Asia would recognize this destiny because they had no choice." Jia Xu said seriously. Whether the destiny is not important. What is important is whether others believe it or not. If others believe it, then this is Zhaotian destiny. If others don't believe it, then this is shit.
However, the problem is here now. In this environment, I have to believe it!
Even when the general trend is formed, even Cao Cao's subordinates will inevitably believe it.
"Don't worry, when Ardashir put forward the banner, showed his identity and really began to absorb the remnants of Central Asia, his destiny exploded. I thought that Xun Wenruo and those who chose to shrink completely at this time were also trying to get a bargain, and completely break Ardashir's orthodoxy." Zhuge Liang said with a plain expression.
Originally, this trick of sitting in the land was very reliable, but after being plagued by locusts, Cao Cao had to retreat and was severely dealt with by Ardashir, who had not encountered locust plague.
It is precisely because of this operation that Aldashir, as Jia Xu said, has the logic of destiny. Without this operation, Aldashir is basically nonsense.
"It's exploded?" Jia Xu looked at Zhuge Liang for no reason. What's the operation?
"I'll look for information." Zhuge Liang searched through his own side. After a while, he found the information he wanted in the folder, and then handed it to Jia Xu. This was after Gan Shi's two families were hammered by locusts, and based on the planetary atmospheric circulation map, he recalculated the rough global rainy area.
Jia Xu looked down at the information, his expression became more and more strange as he read, but the sudden realization of knowledge between his eyebrows and eyes could still be easily seen. He became more and more satisfied with this information, because this information solved many of his doubts and gave him a more accurate understanding of the climate.
Jia Xu also has the ability to see clouds and weather. After all, this is also a part of the celestial phenomena, and the top counselor must have this ability, but the long-term viewability of this ability is limited. Based on this information, the general direction can be seen very long.
"Although I don't like it very much, I still have to say that the destiny of heaven is in Cao Sikong, not in Ardashir. What Ardashir does now and the destiny displayed are more important for the civil officials under Cao's command to consolidate their own foundation by relying on the other party's destiny. Maybe there will be ghosts and gods to shock the people later." Zhuge Liang said indifferently.
After reading it, Jia Xu was amazed. With this information, Jia Xu naturally had a whole set of ways to manipulate destiny in his mind, such as Ardashir's destiny, this is the destiny of their Han Dynasty!
"With the advancement of various secret techniques and technologies, the gap between the levels of the empire and non-imperiality is further widening. If the opponent is the Kushan Empire, we have to worry about the possibility of resisting this future if necessary, but Ardashir cannot do it." Zhuge Liang sorted out the information and said casually, "What's more, the civil officials of the Cao family should have been prepared."
Jia Xu nodded when he heard this. Indeed, if it were Kushan, Kushan would definitely be able to hold on for a while. When he was fighting with Guan Yu, the Han Dynasty and Kushan directly supported the rainy season, so that the rainy season would not come directly. This ability is not only strong, but just to prevent the enemy's operations is absolutely enough.
Ardashir does not have this ability, and there may be a lot of good things left by the rest empire, but it is still a question of how much effect these things can be achieved in Ardashir's hands, and there is also a very important point. Some things cannot be used even if Ardashir takes them.
"But in this case, it seems quite dangerous." Fa Zheng said with a frown. He also looked at Jia Xu while he was looking at the climate distribution map, roughly understanding what Cao Cao thought now, but there was quite uncertainty in this plan.
"Even if Cao Sikong has become a toy on the public platform, does he still like gambling so much?" Chen Xi was a little strange, while Zhuge Liang had a expressionless face.
"If you win the bet, you may not be able to turn the tables directly. If you lose the bet, you will talk about it. Anyway, you will not lose even worse." Fa Zheng had a casual expression on his face, and Chen Xi had nothing to say when he heard this. With Cao Cao's current situation, it seems that this is true.
"As far as I go, Cao Sikong's case is a gambling element, but in my opinion, the success rate is not low, and most of the problems like human hearts can be solved this time. As long as you don't commit suicide in the future, many problems will no longer be problems." Jia Xu was optimistic about this plan.
Everyone casually discussed the embarrassing situation of Cao Sikong Kandahar after being surrounded by Ardashir, and they all relied on their own understanding of Cao Cao and analyzed the subsequent situation. Generally speaking, they were still optimistic about Cao Cao. There was no way. Unless Ardashir could defeat Cao Cao quickly and directly entered Kandahar, all the early victory would have to be returned to Cao Cao, and even his destiny would have to be returned to Cao Cao.
"Emergency Line Report." Just as Chen Xi and others were happily discussing Cao Sikong's subsequent counterattack, the guards at the intelligence port arrived at the Government Affairs Council immediately with emergency information.
Guo Jia frowned slightly when he heard this, and felt a bad feeling in his heart. He took the expedited line and opened it. After glanced at him, Guo Jia's expression became gloomy and his eyes could not cover his coldness.
"What happened?" Chen Xi looked at Guo Jia and asked. He was the only one who could directly ask the others and the secret reports from the intelligence port need to be copied according to the situation.
"Midia is falling." Guo Jia said coldly. Chen Xi heard the question mark, what? What do you say? How is it possible for Midia to fall? This is the largest trading city between the Han Dynasty and Rome in Central Asia, where there is an entire imperial guard stationed...
Ah, fuck, Ma Chao had run away to Northern Europe before, but now no one is stationed in Midiya. Before there was no locust plague, because of the deterrence of Rome and the Han Dynasty, even if there was no garrison, no one in the local area dared to provoke. But now the second round of locust plague has swept through Central Asia, and the locals have no food to eat. No matter how great the deterrence of the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty is, it is not as great as the deterrence of starvation.
After robbing Midiya Trading City, Rome and the Han Dynasty reacted at most to send people to chase and kill all those involved in this matter. The problem is that if they don’t do this, they will starve to death now. It’s better to rob directly, at least rob directly, and they won’t die now. If they are lucky later, they may not be able to hide it.
Since that's the case, then what choice is there? Of course I'll grab it.
"What is the Zhen family doing!" Chen Xi's anger was directly on the head, because Zhen had been voting for democratic voting and did not do any fiefdom. Finally, he relied on Liu Bei and Chen Xi to take the near Midiya Trading City as a fiefdom, which was also held until the end and received support from his thighs.
Other families are actually very envious of this. After all, the prosperity of Midiya is not a joke. The capital that once had been resting is considered the core essence. Even if it was robbed by Rome, it would be a treasure land if it was developed carefully in the future.
With its own strength, experience in controlling business, and support from Liu Bei and Chen Xi, the Zhen family successfully entered the Midiya Trading City, which was considered as the manpower placed by the Han Dynasty and restrained Rome.
Considering that Ma Chao basically doesn't care about anything, the Zhen family just needs to develop it. It can be said that it is the most comfortable family among all the aristocratic families. As a result, Midiya Trading City has been defeated by thieves. Damn, what about the faces of the Han Empire and the Roman Empire? They were pulled to the ground by the thieves!
"There is no very detailed information yet, but the Midiya Trading City had fallen yesterday. A large number of thieves attacked the Midiya Trading City, killing, burning and looting." Guo Jia replied expressionlessly.
"That's a city of the capital level, just fell into it?" Li Youren was stunned. What the hell is the Zhen family doing, how did the mere thief attack?
Just be more direct, let alone bandits, even if Aldashir attacks Midiya Trading City, it can last at least a month or two. How come he fell into trouble just after receiving the news? Is the Zhen family a pig?
"It's probably because it's a match between inside and outside. After all, Midiya Trading City is mixed with good and bad people, and there are some uneasy and kind-hearted people inside." Zhuge Liang comforted Chen Xi and Li You as much as possible, and both of them looked a little gloomy now.
"Let the head of the Zhen family come over. I remember that he seems to be still in the local area." Chen Xi closed his eyes and no longer felt warm when he opened it again.
This is no longer a problem of land loss. This is a pig. The Han Dynasty needs to explain this kind of capsized ship to Rome, because this is a trading city jointly managed by the two companies. The Han Dynasty and Rome are half of each person. After Ma Chao attacked, he handed it over to the Han Dynasty for management. As a result, the Han Dynasty turned around and trapped the Midiya trading city in the hands of the bandits!
