Three Kingdoms: Bandit Cao, let go of that woman!

Chapter 655 Whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world
When the news reached Cao Peng, Cao Peng was furious. He didn't expect such a result.

The Roman Empire deceived him this time, and the purpose was to make him a joke.

Peace talks are never possible, only endless wars.

"Okay, great, since the Roman Empire wants to come out with me, then I don't mind playing with them carefully!"

Immediately after Cao Peng finished speaking, he asked Jiang Wei to send troops. There were 10 troops hoarding at the border of Rome. This time, he wanted to let them know the consequences of provocation.

"Your Highness, have you thought of a question?" Fazheng couldn't help asking.

Cao Peng asked doubtfully, "What?"

Fazheng said: "Ma Chao has an accident now. He recalled that those Qiang people might take the opportunity to make trouble. We have to guard against it!"

Cao Peng looked cold, this is really possible.

"Order Guan Yu to immediately lead [-] troops to guard the Qiang people. If anyone dares to move, we will not tolerate it and directly execute the law!"

After a series of orders, it naturally caused a chain reaction, and just the conflict with the Roman border triggered many incidents.

This time the peace talks failed, but the envoy was killed by the other party. It is a great shame and humiliation to say it.

Realized that this time, Cao Peng of the Great Wei had already been pissed off by them, and the other party was immediately persuaded.

Although the Romans were clamoring fiercely, when it comes to military strength, they are actually nothing more than paper tigers.

Several conflicts on the border let them know that if a war really breaks out, there will inevitably be some collapse in the country.

At this time in the royal court in Rome, some meetings began.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid we should have a good talk with Cao Peng because of the safety of the two countries or the domestic situation..."

After hearing what the minister said, the little emperor couldn't help but want to laugh. Now that he wanted to talk about the time so early, what did you guys do?

"Okay, but now I don't want to deal with these mundane things anymore, you can figure it out!"

The little emperor's current self-protection method is to weaken his influence on the empire, so one day after the Great Wei Empire captures here, he still has some possibility to survive.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

They were naturally extremely happy about the loss of power of the little emperor.

"Then let's discuss it next. If we want to negotiate peace, what kind of gift will Cao Peng like?"

This group of people started immediately, shameless, and only intended to please the boss to solve the current problem.

"Your Highness, the Roman Empire requested peace talks and sent a lot of gifts"

After hearing this, Cao Peng laughed, which was expected.

"Hmph, since they have already done it, why are you talking about killing their envoys, the shame before us!" Fa Zhengyi said in a cold voice.

Cao Peng smiled wryly, it seems that Fazheng is really a bit of a tiger.

It is completely irrational for this guy to integrate his national plot into these diplomatic events.

"Calm down! Now that things have happened, what we should think about is not complicating things, but thinking about how to make these big things smaller!"

What Cao Peng meant, Fazheng did not understand. He has always been a straightforward person, and he did not understand these twists and turns.

"Your Highness, what do you mean?" Fazheng asked suspiciously.

Cao Peng smiled, and then said: "Let's take a look at what their gift is, and then make a decision, it's not too late!"

The gifts from the Roman Empire were pulled in one after another.

Gold, silver, jewelry, and even exotic animals.

"Hehe, why don't these rare and exotic beasts be brought to China to relieve our little emperor!" Cao Peng said with a smile.

The people around also laughed in agreement, what Cao Peng said was really correct.

If it were someone else who saw so many jewels, their eyes would have stared, but now this person is Cao Peng.

Ordinary objects are difficult to enter his eyes.

"By the way, is there any ivory?" Cao Peng asked.

Ivory is very hard to find. A few days ago Lu Lingqi asked him several times but he couldn't find it.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The Roman envoy who was in charge of the mission to the Great Wei hurriedly pulled up a cart of goods, and there were indeed some ivory in the cart.

"There are not only ivory but also fist-sized pearls. I didn't expect you, Rome, to be so rich!"

Rome is already connected to the sea, so it is not surprising that they have pearls.

海域
This thing made Cao Peng think of something. If he can conquer the outer seas, it will definitely be a good thing for the current Great Wei.

Maybe I should preside over the establishment of a treasure ship plan and carry out an expedition strategy to the West.

At the moment when Cao Peng was in a daze, the other party asked, "Your Highness, what's wrong with you?"

Cao Peng put those thoughts in his mind behind him and shook his head.

"Nothing, where were we talking just now?"

Seeing that Cao Peng was confused by these dazzling gifts, he was a little surprised.

Logically speaking, how could Cao Peng's realm be confused? This is really puzzling.

"You go back first, and tell the ministers in Rome that I have accepted the gift, but whether you want to negotiate a peace or not is up to me!" Cao Peng said with a light smile.

The other party was taken aback immediately. Cao Peng didn't give an accurate word on whether he had completed the task or not.

"please!"

Above the main hall, the Jin Yiwei immediately stepped forward and asked the Roman envoy to back down. Naturally, the other party didn't dare to say anything, so he had to back down.

Fazheng stood up, he was puzzled about what happened just now, but Cao Peng told him to be calm.

"Let's stop today's discussion, and the rest of you can step down!" Cao Peng said with a light smile.

Everyone else understood that it was Cao Peng who was driving everyone away except his cronies.

Only Fazheng and Zhang Song are left here. After following Cao Peng to the Western Regions for a long time, these two guys have been advising Cao Peng.

"You certainly can't understand why I had the intention of reconciliation when the war was just going on."

Cao Peng pointed it out directly, and there was nothing to say about what the two of them thought, so they acted like they were being educated humbly.

"Hehe, subduing the enemy without fighting is the best strategy for a military strategist, and you should know it."

"The caste system in the Roman Empire has now reached its peak, and the country's resources are in the hands of a few nobles. The people have long been dissatisfied. Based on this, as long as we use it properly, we can overthrow their regime."

Fazheng and Zhang Song were taken aback. They seemed to realize what kind of strategy Cao Peng was planning to adopt.

Those who win the hearts of the people win the world, this is Cao Peng's trump card.
