Chapter 146: Wen Zhao's meritorious service is taboo
During the march, seeing Cao Wenzhao sighing incessantly, his nephew Cao Bianjiao said: "The rogue in Shanxi has been defeated, why is my uncle sullen?" ”
Cao Wenzhao liked this nephew of his heart, heard him ask, glanced back at him, and said truthfully: "When I was busy suppressing Kou, I had no time to take care of him, I was really idle, think about it carefully, my uncle has too many puzzles." ”
Cao Bianjiao looked at him and said intimately: "Uncle, you might as well come and listen, let Bianjiao help you refer to the details, and also gain more knowledge." ”
When Cao Wenzhao heard this, he pondered, obviously thinking about whether to tell Chang Jiao, or carefully sorting out his thoughts, and after a while, he said: "Jiao'er has been following his uncle for more than a year or two, and some things should be clear."
When he was in Shaanxi, his uncle sacrificed his life to suppress thieves, and he was also regarded as a repeater of military exploits, but for some reason, the imperial court always forgot his uncle when he talked about his merits.
Uncle also suspected that the governor of the three sides, Hong Chengchou, was doing trouble, but if you think about it, although Hong Chengchou is a wait-and-see person, his uncle is his subordinate after all, and his uncle has created political achievements for him, so he has no reason to embarrass his uncle at all.
If you want to talk about merit, my uncle has never been, and the reason why the emperor can know my uncle should be played by those imperial historians.
Uncle has always believed that as long as people spare no effort and look at things wholeheartedly, there are some things that do not need to be fought for.
Who would have thought that in Shanxi, this situation is still continuing, not only continuing, but also getting more and more intense.
Just like last time, the emperor explicitly ordered all localities to accumulate grain and grass to reward us, hmph, not only did they not act according to the holy decree, but they accidentally injured us with cannons. The uncle didn't care about them, and the eunuch Liu Zhongyun Liu supervised the army, and the emperor found out, and ordered the imperial history to investigate strictly, but it was also gone.
If you want to say that your uncle has offended them, your uncle dares to swear to the sky, absolutely not. If the uncle wants to try his best to suppress the thieves, how can he dare to offend them? ”
What Cao Wenzhao said, Cao Bianjiao was also puzzled, but it was not as clear as what Cao Wenzhao said. Therefore, hearing this, Cao Bianjiao couldn't help but go to see his younger brother Cao Dingjiao and his father Cao Wenyao.
The two of them just felt that it was inappropriate, and they didn't know the reason, so they both shook their heads helplessly.
Cao Bianjiao had no plan, and he was afraid that Cao Wenzhao would be sad, so he comforted: "The eldest husband was born in heaven and earth, and he should have made meritorious contributions, no matter what else. ”
Cao Dingjiao and his father Cao Wenyao said: "As long as you make meritorious contributions, God knows what else you don't need to talk about." In fact, isn't the emperor who is not around us also knowing? ”
Cao Wenzhao savored their words, unable to find the answer he needed from them, sighed, and said: "People, you should still understand, only when your heart is clear, can you know the direction, and there will be no troubles." ”
As he spoke, he saw that his nephew and younger brother were at a loss, lest they fall into their ambitions, and said: "It's better to change Jiao's words, make meritorious contributions, no matter what else." ”
After saying that, he sent the horse's ass violently and galloped.
Cao Bianjiao was praised and hurriedly drove his horse to follow closely.
As they were marching, the Chinese army hurriedly came to report: "General Qiyu, there are rogue soldiers in front of you who have surrounded the officers and soldiers all the way, because they are outnumbered, the officers and soldiers are very dangerous, and the former army asks the general to decide." ”
Cao Wenzhao raised his eyebrows and said: "Saving soldiers is like fighting fire, what else to decide, order the front army, immediately defeat the rogues and rescue the friendly army." ”
So saying, he drove his horse and galloped again.
Cao Wenyao hurried up, reminding as he ran: "What should the new governor do over there?" ”
After being reminded by him, Cao Wenzhao suddenly remembered that he was visiting the new Henan governor Yuan Mo.
Due to Zuo Liangyu's defeat in February, the former governor of Henan, Fan Shangyu, was dismissed from his post and replaced by Yuan Mo, Taichang Shaoqing. It is said that there is also a Liu Yushi who also came to check Henan.
In order to avoid repeating the mistakes made in Shaanxi and Shanxi, Cao Wenzhao specially rushed over to visit the meeting, hoping to dredge up the relationship.
Therefore, Cao Wenzhao slowed down and said, "You know, the rogues only rely on a large number of people, and they don't have much combat effectiveness, so it won't take much time to drive them away." ”
Cao Wenyao said: "We have already sent someone to inform others, we must have a good relationship with others, and it is not good to make people wait for a long time." ”
Cao Wenzhao said: "Didn't the imperial court send them here to exterminate the rogues? It's all for the purpose of exterminating the rogues, they should be considerate, haven't you heard that the situation is critical? It's not going to be a while. ”
With that, he galloped again.
Cao Wenyao was helpless, so he had to beckon to follow.
Besides, Zhang Xianzhong, seeing the panic on this Tanma's face, said disdainfully: "I also know that Cao Wenzhao is brave, and he has also suffered his losses, I am afraid that he will be a bird, and I will fight him for 300 rounds." ”
As he spoke, he was about to go to the battle, but when he saw Xu Yixian constantly making eyes, he had to stop and not speak.
Zhang Miaoshou said: "Everyone knows that Zhang Chuang will be brave, but this Cao Wenzhao is really not easy to get along, and his nephew Cao Bianjiao is even more courageous. ”
Zhang Miaoshou is the leader of the rebel army stationed in Houjiazhuang, and the leader of the rebel army who was driven away by Ma Fengyi is called He Shuangquan.
Zhang Xianzhong wanted to say more, but after hearing Xu Yixian, he also agreed, so he had to follow them to see King Chuang.
As soon as they left, Cao Wenzhao led his troops to rush over, and when he saw this, he couldn't help beating his chest and bursting into tears.
After a long time, Fang Shi ordered someone to bury the bodies of Ma Fengyi and his subordinate officers and soldiers, and went to the location of the new governor.
When he arrived, it was getting late, and Cao Wenzhao was hesitating, but he saw the door suddenly open, and a person walked out and asked, "Is it General Cao Wenzhao Cao outside?" ”
Cao Wenzhao hurriedly said: "It is the last general, because he rushed to Houjiazhuang to rescue, so he came late, and wondered if he should come again tomorrow to ask for a meeting." ”
The man complained: "You, come back tomorrow to ask for a meeting, the governor has been waiting for you for a whole day, no matter how good your sex is, you are already in a hurry, come in quickly." As he spoke, he turned to one side and asked Cao Wenzhao to go inside.
Cao Wenzhao didn't dare to slack off, entered the door, waited for him to go first, and followed step by step.
Before I reached the middle hall, I heard someone say: "This Cao Wenzhao is also loyal and brave, but he is too uninteresting." ”
As soon as this person's words fell, someone immediately answered: "Why did Lord Yushi say that? ”
Yushi said: "Hmph, but after a few victories, I thought I was capable, it seems that this world will not be able to do without him Cao Wenzhao, a few days ago, because a magistrate accidentally injured him, he actually sued the emperor, he thought the emperor would believe him alone?"
The governor didn't know anything, when the old man was idle in Hongdong's hometown, he thought of his courage and went to visit him in person, hmph, he avoided it? It's really a bug out of gourd seeds, and all birds have it. ”
Hearing this, Cao Wenzhao suddenly remembered that this imperial history was actually Liu Lingyu, because this Liu Lingyu had the most no position, Cao Wenzhao had always disdained it.
Therefore, Cao Wenzhao couldn't help but pause, but listened to Governor Yuan Mo say: "Lord Yushi doesn't ask for full blame, all fierce generals, which one doesn't have a little personality?" Since ancient times. ”
Liu Lingyu sneered: "Don't believe those literati nonsense, in reality, who can stand a fierce general like him?" Let's just say today, he actually dares to cool the two of us here for a day? To rescue friendly forces? Did he save it? Hmph, he still doesn't know which one is lighter and which one is heavier? ”
Yuan Mo said: "This Cao Wenzhao is indeed not like words, but Lord Yushi is still quiet, he should come in in a while, don't be heard by him." ”
Liu Lingyu said: "The governor doesn't need to persuade him, I just want him to hear, the old man is now inspecting Henan, see what he can do to the old man?" ”
Yuan Mo said with a smile: "A gentleman doesn't treat his anger with a cow, what is an adult's anger with such an uninteresting life, is it worth it?" ”
Cao Wenzhao thought that Yuan Mo could say two good words for himself, but he didn't want him to say so, so he brushed his sleeves away.
This person didn't expect this to be like this, he couldn't stop it, so he had to go in and report it, Yuan Mo was only stunned for a moment, that is, he said mockingly: "How is this good?" We still have to count on him to help us suppress the bandits. ”
Liu Lingyu said hatefully: "Bandits? Hmph, without him Cao Butcher, we still eat hairy pigs? Just set Hu Fengyi's death on his head, and see how rampant he is? ”
