Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

The three people in the cell fell into deep thought at this moment.

How much money will Sun Quan pay to redeem them?

If there is too much, it may be difficult to achieve; if there is less, does that mean that he is worthless in Sun Quan's heart?

If it is worthless in Sun Quan's heart, then what is the purpose of his hard work?

Chapter 511 Envoy from Dongzhou

In the ninth year of Jian'an, December, in the palace of Yamatai, Dongzhou.

In the past few years, the extreme cold has killed countless people under the rule of Yamatai, and they are also facing the threat of the dog slave country next door. Under the internal and external troubles, it is really difficult to continue the country.

In the main hall, there are many civil and military officials from Yamatai, and there are about forty of them in total.

Sitting at the top of the hall is a woman.She has a graceful figure and wears a face scarf. Although she can't see her cheeks, just from her pair of beautiful eyes, the man from the island country is fascinated by her.

The woman's name is Himiko, and she is the king of Yamatai.

It seemed a bit oppressive in the hall, and the situation they faced recently deteriorated a bit rapidly.

Seeing that no one spoke, Nan Shengmi spoke first: "Queen, the Gonu Kingdom invaded our borders again while we were escaping from the severe cold. Now many towns in the south are crumbling, and I'm afraid they won't last long."

"Hmph! Two villains who are in collusion, colluded to deal with me." Himiko's voice was cold, but there was a trace of helplessness.

"If the situation continues to deteriorate like this, we may have to lose a large area of ​​land."

"Then you say, what should we do?"

Nan Shengmi thought for a moment, and then said what he had been thinking for a long time: "Back to Your Majesty, this summer, some fishermen once said that they saw a huge fleet in the sea."

"Fleet?" Himiko was taken aback when he heard the words, then leaned forward slightly and asked, "Which fleet is it?"

"The fisherman said it was written by a big man, but he didn't know the meaning of those words"

Himiko frowned slightly, and said: "I heard that the big man fell into civil strife earlier, and I'm afraid it will fall apart. How can he organize a huge fleet?" But no matter how chaotic the land is, these countries in the island country will never Dare to have any idea about it.The gap between them and the princes of the Central Plains is really too big.

"This is what I want to say." Nan Shengmi bowed respectfully, and then continued: "If there is such a huge fleet, it means that the big man has either recovered or another one has been born. A powerful regime!"

Himiko almost understood, she asked: "You mean, go to the big man to ask for their help?"

"Exactly!"

"But will they help us?"

"The Han Dynasty has always been willing to help the weak. If we sincerely ask for help, they should help us, right?"

Although I feel that there is little hope, there is really no better way now.

After thinking for a moment, Himiko looked at Nan Shengmi and said, "Then who do you think is better for the big man?"

Nan Shengmi bowed respectfully again and said: "Since it was proposed by the minister, it is natural for the minister to go! If the big man is not invited to help, the minister will kill himself to thank His Majesty!"

Yamatai was originally composed of more than 30 small countries or villages, and the interior was not monolithic.

If the defeat continues like this, it is inevitable that some unsteady villages will seek refuge in the Goonu Kingdom.

But Himiko was still a little worried: "A country like the Han Dynasty, are they really willing to help a small country like us?"

Nan Shengmi replied: "Your Majesty, the current situation is critical, and only by taking a dangerous move can we find a chance of life! At that time, we can offer some slaves, treasures, and tablecloths. I think it should be able to express our sincerity. Please come to the big man!" Chao's help."

Nan Shengmi persuasively persuaded, and at the same time felt in his heart, "We all took out our most precious things, and the people of the Han Dynasty will definitely like it very much!"

Himiko frowned and looked around at the ministers below.

None of them stood up to oppose or put forward other opinions. It seems that a consensus has been reached secretly.

"Forget it, it's up to you." Himiko herself had no better way to get out of the current predicament, so she could only follow Nan Shengmi's suggestion, and said: "You go and choose five male slaves and ten female slaves. People, take two pieces of work cloth and send them to the big man."

When Himiko said this, a painful expression appeared on his face.

She was still a little worried, fearing that these "heavy treasures" would be lost or robbed halfway, so she repeatedly warned: "The road to the Han Dynasty in the west is difficult and full of difficulties. I don't feel relieved if you go alone, so let the city Niu Li follow you." Together, there is a mutual support between you!"

Nan Shengmi knew that the Queen was afraid that he would get involved in the "Chongbao" and escape, but he believed that he was dedicated to the country and was open-minded, so he accepted it frankly: "Let the Queen arrange it!"

Jian'an ten years, at the end of February.

Ups and downs in the sea, Nan Shengmi and Urban Niuli, a group of twenty or so people who have passed the test of life and death, finally set foot on the land of Guangling County, Qingzhou after losing a male slave and three female slaves.

As soon as they set foot on Guangling County, Nan Shengmi, Du Niu Li and others were caught by the county soldiers.

They tried their best to show their identities and intentions, and the county soldiers escorted them to Guangling County.

Outside of Guangling County, when looking at the majestic Guangling City not far away, which is four or five feet high, the group of people who look like refugees, Nan Sheng Mi and Urban Niu Li, were stunned.

Although they have tried their best to imagine the power and prosperity of Dahan City, the county in front of them is far beyond their imagination.

Urban Niuli whispered in Nan Shengmi's ear, "How many lives do you think it takes to capture such a city?!"

Nan Shengmi glanced at Urban Niuli, and said in a low voice, "I advise you not to have other thoughts, otherwise we won't know how we will die."

Dushi Niuli smacked his lips and said, "I don't have any bad intentions, I just think this city is a bit too exaggerated. I'm afraid this is already one of the most powerful cities of the Han Dynasty."

The guards next to him also nodded in unison, thinking: "It should be one of the most powerful cities of the big man. After all, it is really big and tall!"

The militiamen marched into the city with Nan Shengmi and his party.

The people along the way looked at the group of "beggars" curiously, shaking their heads and discussing, "Look at this group of refugees, what a crime!"

"Yeah, not only skinny, but also stunted, he must have escaped from Jiangdong or somewhere."

"It's Prime Minister Cao and Lu Huanqi who treat us well! Oh, and of course, Your Majesty!"

The voices of the people next to me were relatively low. Although they knew some Chinese, they were not very proficient in Nan Sheng Mi, and some could not understand what they were saying.

only,

Nan Shengmi, Dushi Niuli, and their guards and entourages, when they looked down at what they considered to be the best robes in the country, they couldn't help but feel a little bitter. What they called the best was actually not as good as the clothes on the street The clothes on those common people were of good quality and varied.

too difficult!

Nan Shengmi and the others realized at this time, how can the small country of Doumi compare with the big man?

Nan Shengmi's face suddenly became a little ugly, because he thought of a very serious problem: "The tablecloth is the highest-grade cloth in Yamatai, but compared with the big Han, it seems to be useless! Moreover, the Han population is large, How can these slaves of them attract the other party's attention?"

The treasure is no longer precious, so can you still ask for help from the big man?

At this moment, Nan Shengmi felt a wave of despair.

Chapter 512 I am a big man who likes to help the weak

Jian'an ten years, April.

The land of China has begun to warm up, and the Central Plains and Hebei have begun to prepare for the most important thing of the year, spring plowing.

Cao Cao has assembled more than 20 troops in Yingchuan, Nanyang, and Runan. With the addition of Gan Ning and Su Fei's 35 navy, and the newly formed [-] Jingzhou navy headed by the Cai Mao brothers, he is now enough There are [-] troops.

As long as the spring rains are over and the weather improves, Cao Cao will probably lead his army and march south to take Jingzhou.

Lu Yan also wants to take part in this Southern Expedition, but he doesn't plan to participate in the whole process, but wants to go to the island country to the east after helping Boss Cao stabilize the overall situation.

On this day, just as Lu Yan came down from the court meeting, he suddenly received an invitation from Cao Cao, saying that there was a group of very interesting people waiting for him to meet.

Although he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Lao Cao's gourd, Lu Yan still readily agreed.After all, Lao Cao would cheat him with one or two gadgets at most, and he wouldn't have any more bad intentions.

When he came to the Prime Minister's Mansion in Xuchang City, Lu Yan felt as if he had entered his own home. There were servants and maidservants greeting Lu Yan along the way.

"I have seen Lu Hussars"

"Lu Huanqi, you are back!"

"The master is in the reception hall, you just go straight."

Lu Yan responded one by one with a smile, and all the servants sighed, "After so many years, Lu Hussar is still so handsome and as gentle as jade."

Walking into the hall, Lu Yan saw a group of ragged and unkempt "beggars" at a glance.

He couldn't help but teased Cao Cao: "Mr. Cao, where did you get this group of top-quality products? Or are you talking about some performance art?"

Cao Cao ignored Lu Yan's ridicule, but pointed to the two frontmost of the group of "beggars", and said, "Come on, introduce yourself to me as the Hussar General of the Han dynasty."

"General Hussars?" Nan Shengmi had an obviously shocked expression on his face.

"It's him! He's a fairy-like figure in the Han population!" Urban Niu Li also immediately remembered the many stories about Lu Yan that the Han guards had told them.

That exiled immortal who is invincible in battle, invincible in attack, and saves countless living people!

"It really looks like a fairy character!"

Along the way, they learned a lot about the current situation of the Han Dynasty from the guards who escorted them, and they understood that although Guangling County was considered a strong city, it was far from the top.

I also know that the actual power in the Han Dynasty is no longer the emperor, but the prime minister of the Han Dynasty named Cao Cao.

They also knew that besides Cao Cao in today's Han Dynasty, there is another person with great prestige, that is the man in front of him who looks only in his 20s, looks as gentle as jade, and looks more like a son than a general Hussar general Lu Yan.

Nan Shengmi and Dudu Niuli were terrified, and then replied tremblingly: "See General Hussars! Your envoy is Nan Shengmi, and he is the envoy of the small country Yamatai."

Lu Yan was listening casually, but when he heard the word "Yamatai", he immediately asked in surprise, "Where did you say you came from???"

Nan Shengmi and Urban Niu Li were taken aback by Lu Yan's slightly violent reaction. They didn't know why Lu Yan had such a reaction.

Being stared at by Lu Yan's deep eyes, Nan Shengmi suddenly felt his legs go weak.

But when he thought of his purpose of coming here after traveling thousands of miles, he still summoned up his courage and said, "Back to General Hussars, I'm from Yamatai!"

"Yamatai!" After getting the confirmation, Lu Yan felt a little excitement in his heart, and said, "Yesterday I wanted to go to the island country for a tour, but people from the island country came today? Could it be God's will? "

"Hey! This guy doesn't know that we are about to get rich!" Lu Yan glanced at the "ignorant" Lao Cao, and kept imagining in his heart that when Lao Cao heard that they were about to own many silver mines At that time, the expression of excitement and gaffe was gone.

Lu Yan suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked, "Is there a country called Dog Nu Country in your place?"

Nan Shengmi and Urban Niuli couldn't help but growl their mouths in surprise, and asked excitedly, "Exactly! You...you know us?"

"When I led the navy through Sanhan a few months ago, someone told us about Sanhan and some things on your island."

Navy?

Nan Shengmi suddenly thought of the huge navy that the fishermen saw in the rumors!

"So it's him!" Nan Shengmi was so shocked that he couldn't be more shocked, but he still tried his best to cover up his expression, so that he didn't look too gaffe.

After a moment of silence, Nan Shengmi, who had reorganized his emotions, bowed and saluted: "Respected Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, General Hussars, we are here on the order of Queen Himiko to pay homage to the Emperor of the Han Dynasty. This is a letter from my queen." , please take a look."

After finishing speaking, Nan Shengmi took out a piece of cloth from his bosom with great care, on which were crooked Chinese characters with reversed tone.

"Oh, by the way, there is also a generous gift chosen by our queen, and I hope the prime minister and the emperor will accept it with a smile."

Four male slaves, six female slaves, and a piece of white cloth.

Not only Cao Cao, but even Lu Yan couldn't help being stunned when he saw this "rich" gift, "This is such a big gift??? Then how poor are you all?!"

Lao Cao first came back to his senses, he laughed awkwardly, and then accepted these "gifts" on behalf of the emperor.

"You have come all the way from Dongzhou, and it must not be just to offer gifts. Tell me, what is your purpose for coming here?" Cao Cao asked straight to the point.

When it came to business, Nan Shengmi's face became serious.After he bowed to Cao Cao and Lu Yan, he said: "Respected Prime Minister of the Great Han, General Hussars, the envoy is here to ask the help of the Great Han to help us overcome the difficulty of destroying the country in Xiematai!"

"Destroy the country."

"My Yamatai Kingdom has always advocated peace, but the Dog Nu Kingdom has been pressing against us and attacking us non-stop. Coupled with the constant natural disasters, we are almost unable to survive."

Cao Cao frowned, he was too late to deal with Liu Qi and Sun Quan, so how could he have time to deal with evil horses?

But Lu Yan suddenly said: "I am a big man who always likes to help the weak. I will discuss your request with the prime minister and the emperor."

Nan Shengmi couldn't believe that Lu Yan agreed so much. Although it was just a "negotiation", it seemed that Lu Yan meant that there was a high probability that he would help!

With some doubts in his heart, Nan Shengmi subconsciously looked at the higher-ranking prime minister, Cao Cao.

Cao Cao knew that Lu Yan had been coveting the island country for a long time, but to be honest, he didn't want to devote his energy to helping Yamatai.

However, Lu Yan had already initially agreed, and seeing that it was difficult for Shengmi to see, out of trust in Lu Yan, Cao Cao followed Lu Yan's words and said: "Since Lu Hussar said that we can discuss it, you should wait a little longer. , wait for us to negotiate a result."

Nan Shengmi and Dushi Niuli were overjoyed immediately, and thanked repeatedly: "So, thank you, Prime Minister, and General Hussars! We will patiently wait for your good news!"

Chapter 513 A lot of silver mines

After the group of envoys from Yamatai left, Cao Cao asked Lu Yan, "Dongzhou is just a small country. Now is the critical moment to start the Southern Expedition. Is it really worth our effort to help them?"

Cao Cao felt that the place was too backward compared to the big men, and for the sake of some silver mines, there was no need to allocate strength to help them at such a crucial point.

"It seems that Cao Cao is still thinking about this issue with the established big country thinking."
