I am the son of Cao thief, start the awakening of the tyrant system

Cao Mao smiled faintly,
"This trip to Chengdu is really hard work, sir."

"No hard work, no hard work, for the sake of the lord, the subordinates are willing to be smashed to pieces!"

Yang Song was flattered and said.

In the novel, Yang Song was extremely greedy for money, and forced Ma Chao to seek refuge with Liu Bei, and forced Pang De to Cao Cao.

But after getting in touch with him, Cao Mao felt that he was capable.

As for being greedy for money, as long as Yang Song can show his ability, Cao Mao will not be stingy with money.

"Don't worry, sir, I will entrust you with a heavy responsibility later!"

"Thank you, my lord!"

Yang Song was overjoyed, knowing that Cao Mao was willing to accept him.

After Xie En, Yang Song leaned forward with a flattering smile,

"How does my lord think about the conditions that Fazheng and Zhang Song released?"

Cao Mao squinted at him, smiled lightly and said,
"What do you think, let's hear it?"

"Then the subordinate will have the courage to show his shame in front of the lord."

Yang Song collected himself and said slowly,
"Nowadays the factions in Yizhou are fighting fiercely, and the local faction generals Yan Yan, Huang Quan and others control the power."

"Although Zhang Song and Fazheng are trusted by Liu Zhang, they have no military power."

"So the two of them are absolutely moved by the lord's solicitation. Otherwise, they wouldn't openly go to the hall to keep their subordinates!"

Unexpectedly, this Yang Song is not a waste.

Cao Mao looked at him with interest,
"Go on."

Encouraged by Cao Mao, Yang Song became more confident and began to talk freely.

"They made such a condition for nothing more than two reasons."

"I came here to see if the lord has the ability to rule the world."

"Secondly, after the lord takes over the Jiange, there will naturally be a major earthquake in Chengdu, and it will be convenient for Zhang Song and Fazheng to lobby Liu Zhang to surrender."

"My lord, you think what you say makes sense?"

Yang Song looked at Cao Mao eagerly, like a student waiting for the teacher's praise.

"Sir's analysis is not bad."

Cao Mao clapped his hands and laughed loudly.

Yang Song immediately showed a happy smile, but then he sighed,

"It's just that Jiange is too dangerous, and it's really difficult to win."

Before leaving for Chengdu, Yang Song knew that Cao Mao was going to attack Yizhou next, so he carefully observed the terrain along the way.

However, Yizhou is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the complexity of the terrain far exceeds that of Hanzhong.

"A mere Jiange, nothing to worry about."

Cao Mao smiled disapprovingly.

Yang Song was startled, and said cautiously,

"My lord may be concerned about the difficulty and complexity of the Yizhou road..."

"Sir, follow me."

Cao Mao interrupted him, got up and walked out.

Yang Song looked blank, but he could only follow behind Cao Mao.

The two left the city and came to a courtyard outside the city.

"Lord!"

Several teams of elite soldiers were arranged outside the courtyard, and when they saw Cao Mao coming, they saluted one after another.

Seeing this situation, Yang Song was even more puzzled.

This place is so heavily guarded, why did the lord bring himself here?
The two drove straight in and came to the spacious backyard.

There is a large hanging basket in the courtyard, and above the hanging basket is a ball made of silk, tung paint and other materials.

"Lord!"

Lu Xiaohang came over and saluted.

"I also ask Minister Lu to light the hot air balloon. I want to open Mr. Yang Song's horizons."

Cao Mao smiled authentically.

"As ordered."

Lu Xiaohang beckoned, and several craftsmen quickly stepped forward.

As the fuel in the basket began to burn, the top of the hot air balloon expanded rapidly.

Under Yang Song's horrified gaze, the hot air balloon lifted off slowly with a basket.

If it wasn't bound by ropes, it might have just flown into the air!
"This... what is this?"

Yang Song was stunned and said.

"This object is called a hot air balloon, and it can take people into the blue sky."

Cao Mao smiled softly,
"Sir, would you like to go up and have a look?"

Yang Song hesitated for a long time, and finally his fear of Cao Mao and his longing for flying into the blue sky overwhelmed his fear of strange things.

The two slowly boarded the hot air balloon.

Under Lu Xiaohang's command, the craftsmen slowly loosened the rope.

As the hot air balloon rose higher and higher, Lu Xiaohang and others under their feet, as well as the workshop of the Ordnance Department, gradually became smaller and smaller, and finally turned into small black spots.

The first time he climbed to such a high place, Yang Song was so frightened that his whole body went limp, and he held on tightly to the side of the hanging basket, for fear that he would fall.

"Don't be nervous, sir."

Cao Mao, who traveled from later generations, was not too nervous.

He comforted Yang Song with a few words, enjoying the beautiful scenery on the high place to his heart's content.

Infected by Cao Mao's calm attitude, Yang Song gradually relaxed and looked out.

Nanzheng City, not far away, looks like a toy made of mud by children from this height.

"With this thing, do you still feel that the Jiange is insurmountable?"

Cao Mao asked with a big smile.

Yang Song's body shook violently, his pupils widened!

No wonder Cao Mao downplayed Jiange so lightly before.

It turns out that there is such a fetish as a hot air balloon!
At that time, you only need to take a hot air balloon to easily cross the dangerous pass.

Those lofty mountains in Yizhou can no longer stop Cao Jun!
Suppressing the shock in his heart, Yang Song respectfully said,
"My subordinates congratulate the lord in advance for winning Yizhou and dominating the world!"

Cao Mao laughed loudly and looked towards the distant sky, his eyes were shining brightly.

……

More than half a month passed.

Cao Jun, who had finished his rest, went out brazenly.

Cao Mao personally led 3 horses as the front army, and with Zhao Yun as the vanguard general, the troops left Yangping Pass, went all the way south, and rushed towards Yizhou!
……

"My lord, the Jiange is less than ten miles away."

Zhao Yun came back from riding a horse in front and reported.

Cao Mao glanced at the sky and said,

"Let the soldiers speed up their pace and strive to arrive at the Jiange before noon."

"Here."

As soon as Zhao Yun received the order, before he could leave, a sentry came galloping on horseback.

"My lord, general, a group of soldiers and horses from Yizhou suddenly appeared in front of them, and the generals at the head are calling for formation!"

"Oh? Zilong, follow me to have a look."

Cao Mao greeted Zhao Yun, clamped his horse's belly, and rode away on Jin Lin.

Zhao Yun followed closely behind.

From Yangping Pass to Jiange, there is only one narrow mountain road.

At this moment, in front of the road, a group of Yizhou people blocked their way.

A brave general was riding on horseback, looking indifferently at this side.

Seeing Cao Mao, who was dressed luxuriously and had an extraordinary bearing, the man shouted,
"Cao thief, I am Zhang Ren, the former governor of Xichuan in Yizhou Muzhang, and I will die if I don't get off my horse!"

Before Cao Mao could answer, Zhao Yun suddenly said,

"My lord, the last general and this person... have a certain relationship, why don't the last general come forward to persuade him?"

Cao Mao's heart skipped a beat, and he said with a smile,
"Could it be that you are from the same school as him?"

"How did my lord know?"

Zhao Yun said in surprise.

nonsense.

Not only do I know that you two are from the same school, but also that your master is Tong Yuan.
