Chapter 375: Treat each other with all sincerity and never give up

"Alas......"

After listening to Xun Chen's complaints, Liu Bei let out a long sigh, and his gray face was also filled with a little sympathy, and a little helplessness. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"This Gao Gongzi, I don't even know what he's thinking." Liu Bei's tone induced a little complaint, "When Yecheng was besieged, I persuaded him several times to lead the army to the rescue, but he always pushed back and refused for various reasons, and I was also very helpless." ”

A hint of joy flashed in Xun Chen's eyes, obviously from Liu Bei's tone, he heard the complaint against Gao Gan, which was exactly what he expected.

He frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Gao Gan's intention is not obvious enough, he obviously wants to sit back and watch Yuan Gong be victimized by the pottery thief, so that he can rely on the strength of Youzhou to steal the Yuan family's foundation and become a hero." ”

Liu Bei's body was shocked, and he paused for a moment, Fang lowered his voice and said: "Actually, not long after Bei and Gao Gan came to Youzhou, they had already discovered that he was ambitious, but I was afraid that Yuan Gong would misunderstand me and provoke their uncle and nephew, so I didn't dare to report to Yuan Gong for a long time." ”

Hearing Liu Bei's words, Xun Chen was completely relieved, the Uncle Liu Huang in front of him was at least on Yuan Shao's side now.

"What about you, Xuande, between Yuan Gong and Gao Gan, which side do you choose to stand on." Xun Chen no longer beat around the bush and wanted to force Liu Bei to take a stand.

Liu Bei's gaze quietly looked at Zhuge Liang who was shaking the feather fan.

Zhuge Liang was closing his eyes at the moment, his eyes were not open, but he seemed to be able to sense that Liu Bei was asking for his opinion, and nodded slightly quietly.

Liu Bei immediately understood, and immediately sat down, and said: "When I was in despair, I came to Hebei to join Yuan Gong, Yuan Gong not only took in Bei, but also treated Bei with great courtesy, and Bei Pingping acted in peace, which has always been the word of righteousness. ”

Xun Chen smiled.

Looking at the generous Liu Bei, listening to his righteous words, Xun Chen knew that his trip was worthwhile, even as a different camp, he couldn't help but secretly praise the frustrated things in his heart.

At that moment, Xun Chen stood up, waved at Liu Beishen, and said: "Xuande is worthy of being a benevolent and righteous gentleman, if so, then the life and death of Yuan Gong and the survival of the Yuan family are entrusted to Xuande." ”

Liu Bei also got up busily, and said with a straight face: "Mr. is serious, this is an unshirkable matter, Mr. is really prepared for this." ”

Xun Chen breathed a sigh of relief, smiled with relief, and then sat down again.

Liu Bei also sat down and asked, "I don't know how Duke Yuan plans to deal with Gao Gan?" ”

"Well...... this" Xun Chen frowned slightly, and said with a wry smile: "There are only more than 10,000 remnants left under the command of Yuan Gong, and the strength is far inferior to that of Gao Gan, we haven't been able to think of any good way for a while, just come to ask Ming Xuande's position first, and then make plans."

"I'm afraid that this matter can't be delayed any longer, don't hide it from Mr., I have secretly gotten the news that Gao Gan seems to be planning to do something to Yuan Gong." Liu Bei's tone gradually became heavy.

Xun Chen's body was shocked, and he immediately became nervous.

Liu Bei's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had realized something, and he hurriedly lowered his voice and said: "But Yuan Gong doesn't have to worry, but he thinks of a plan, maybe he can solve Gao Gan once and for all." ”

"What's Xuande's plan?" Xun Chen suddenly smiled, and the whole person became excited.

Liu Bei asked Xun Chen to move forward, lowered his voice, and explained his strategy.

Xun Chen became more and more excited the more he listened, and after hearing Liu Bei's words, he couldn't close his mouth with a smile, and said happily: "Xuande's plan is really wonderful, and Yuan Gong will definitely adopt Xuande's clever plan." ”

Liu Bei also smiled and said modestly: "It's just a small skill of carving insects, fortunately, that senior cadre is not so guarded, and it is enough to deal with him." ”

Without further ado, Xun Chen didn't dare to stay too long, and was about to get up and say goodbye immediately.

Before leaving, Xun Chen once again looked deeply at Liu Bei, and said with a grateful face: "If Xuande can help Yuan Gong to control the high-level cadres, he will have the grace of reinvention in the Yuan family, Xuande can rest assured, Yuan Gong is a person who rewards and punishes clearly, and the position of the assassin in Youzhou will be taken over by Xuande. ”

Liu Bei is a native of Youzhou, and if he can become the assassin of his hometown, it will undoubtedly be a great honor.

Liu Bei's face flashed with a hint of joy in an instant, but he hurriedly said: "This is a matter of backup, don't dare to expect Yuan Gong's reward." ”

Xun Chen was satisfied, and with Liu Bei's promise, he hurriedly said goodbye and went to Yijing.

"Mr. Kong Ming is really like a god, Yuan Shao really came to beg us to deal with his good nephew." As soon as Xun Chen walked on his front foot, the smile on Liu Bei's face was closed, and his eyes looked at Yi Zhuge Liang, his eyes were full of admiration.

Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan lightly and said with a faint smile: "When the bright material is not too long, the senior cadres will definitely find the lord to come to discuss." ”

Before the words fell, Chen Zhi, the commander of the guards, walked into the tent and reported that Gao Gan had just sent someone and asked Liu Bei to go to the big tent to talk about it.

"It's not as expected by my husband." Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang again in surprise, and couldn't help but add a little respect to his eyes.

Zhuge Liang was as indifferent as water, without the slightest surprise, as if everything was under his control, and only gently raised the feather fan, "The invitation of the senior cadres must be for Yuan Shao's affairs, and the lord only needs to act according to the plan." ”

Liu Bei nodded, then got up and left the tent, and went straight to the big tent of Gaogan.

The 20,000 Youzhou troops are all subordinates of Gao Gan in name, but in fact, there are only more than 5,000 soldiers and horses that Gao Gan can directly command, and the remaining 15,000 soldiers and horses, nearly 5,000 of whom are Liu Bei's descendants, and the remaining more than 10,000 soldiers and horses are mostly Zhao Yun and other Gongsun Zhan's old troops.

The reason why Gao Gan was able to let these old Gongsun Zhan departments come under his command was because of Liu Bei's recruitment.

Because Liu Bei is a native of Youzhou and an old friend of Gongsun Zhan, in the eyes of Zhao Yun and others, he is quite influential, and they all came to join Gao Gan for Liu Bei's face, so they nominally serve Gao Gan, but in fact, they only act according to Liu Bei's eyes.

As for the senior cadres, they can only mobilize these horses through Liu Bei.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, the senior cadres had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw Liu Bei coming, they didn't get up to greet him personally, only nodded and waved their hands to show Liu Bei the seat, and did not show enthusiasm for the guests.

Liu Bei didn't mind, he bowed his hand to Gao Gan very respectfully, and then sat down.

"Xuande, my uncle has repeatedly sent people to summon me, wanting me to go to Yijing to discuss with him about resisting the pottery thief, what do you think?" Gao Gan asked straight to the point.

In the past year, Liu Bei showed great respect and obedience to Gao Gan, as if he had been a subordinate, so Gao Gan gradually regarded himself as the lord, forgetting that Liu Bei was just a guest general of the Yuan family.

It is precisely because of Liu Bei's obedience and respect that he has won the trust of the senior cadres in him, and whenever he encounters a major event, he has to consult Liu Bei's opinion, and he is almost obedient to him.

Gao Gan's voice fell, Liu Bei's face had become solemn and solemn, and he arched his hand and said in a deep voice: "Yuan Benchu obviously wanted to trap Gao Gongzi and seize your military power, Gongzi must not be fooled." ”

"Listening to Xuande's tone, it seems that you have heard some wind?" Gao Gan saw some clues.

Liu Bei glanced at Gao Gan, Gao Gan understood, became more and more suspicious, and hurriedly retreated left and right, and only the two of them were left in the big tent.

Liu Bei's face was grim at this time, and he lowered his voice and said: "Don't hide it from the son, Yuan Benchu has sent Xun Chen to meet with him in secret, and wants to prepare the inside and the outside to help him hunt and kill the son." ”

"Is that so?" Gao Gan was taken aback and jumped up.

"The stakes are very high, and you dare to talk nonsense." Liu Bei's tone was solemn, and the word "honesty" was written on his gray face.

Gao Gan naturally believed in the truth, got up and paced in the tent, angry and frightened, and kept chattering about "old thief and old thief" in his mouth.

After a long time, Gao Gan came back from his anger and looked at Liu Bei gratefully, "I didn't expect Xuande to tell me the truth without hesitation, and it is not in vain that I trust you Xuande." ”

Liu Bei was busy with his body, and said generously: "Bei is the eloquence of the son, and the extraordinary bearing has been admired for a long time. ”

"A good heart-to-heart, never give up, Xuande ......" Gao Gan was moved to tears, and held Liu Bei's hand tightly.

"Gao Gongzi ......" Liu Bei also held his hand tightly, and his eyes were full of sincere crystals.

The two held hands with tears in their eyes, and looked at each other for a long time before they realized that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and each let go of each other's hands.

"Ahem...... Gao Gan coughed a few times to hide his embarrassment, and Fang asked: "Since the old thing has become suspicious of me and wants to get rid of me, what should I do according to Xuande's plan." ”

"Childe rest assured, Bei has already thought of a foolproof plan for Childe." The corners of Liu Bei's mouth raised a sly smile.

Gao Gan was overjoyed and hurriedly asked what to do.

"Bei has pretended to reach a conspiracy with Yuan Shao, two days later Yuan Shao will lead soldiers and horses to rob the camp, and Beihui should cooperate with the outside to help him kill his son, Yuan Shao probably believes it."

As he spoke, Liu Bei's hand pointed to a point on the map, between Yi Jing and the big camp, "If Yuan Shao comes to rob the camp, he will definitely pass through here, the terrain here is extremely conducive to setting up an ambush, and the prince can lead the elite soldiers to set up an ambush here, and Bei Ze will lead the rest of the soldiers and horses to attack Yi Jing, at that time, ......"

Liu Bei didn't finish speaking, only a cold smile flowed on his face, and the implication was already clear.

Gao Gan stared at the map for a long time, his thoughts flipped over, and after a while, he clapped his fists and said happily: "Okay, according to Xuande's plan, I can solve the old thing in one fell swoop, and I can no longer have any worries and occupy Yi Jing's full strength to resist the Tao thief's soldiers." ”

Seeing that Gao Gan adopted his own proposal, Liu Bei secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly praised him: "The son is strong and decisive, and has the courage of a hero, so why worry about the great cause." ”

Hearing Liu Bei's compliment, Gao Gan became more and more proud, and couldn't help laughing, his eyes swept around the map, as if the whole world was under his control.

Behind him, the respect on Liu Bei's face had quietly dissipated, and an imperceptible sneer burned in the eyes that stared at Gao Gan.
