Chapter 322: Chen Gong's Heart

The general has a reputation for a hundred battles. To the river beam, turn back thousands of miles, the old man is extinct. ------------Southern song dynasty. Xin Qiji's "He Bridegroom, Bemaojia's Twelve Brothers"

It is said that Chen Long and Zhou Budo have a plan to attack Juancheng, but the real target is Puyang, a military town guarded by Manzhong and Xu Huang. Full of favor Man Boning and Xu Huang Xu Gongming are all famous generals with all-round talents in civil and military affairs, and almost all of them are important figures who can influence the situation of the war and stabilize the morale of the army in the official history.

At the meeting of the celebration of the palace, Chen Gong fully recognized Zhou Budo's strategic concept. In this battle, as long as the Montenegrin Army and Chen Liujun cooperated together, the strength of the two reached 270,000 troops, and it was a surprise, and they would definitely be able to gain something. And Chen Liujun's also has their own wishful thinking, their military goals, even if they can't conquer Dingtao in one fell swoop, if they can open up the passage to Xuzhou, they will also be ready to take Xuzhou Taoqian in the future and set up a more stable base.

In Chen Gong's heart, he has always had a deep hatred with Cao Cao. This hatred does not come from Cao Cao's lack of reuse of himself, but from his endless remorse for misseeing Cao Cao. At that time, Cao Cao returned from Xuzhou, "In the spring of the first year of Xingping, Taizu returned from Xuzhou." At the beginning, the great-grandfather Song, after going to the official, returned to the rebellion, Dong Zhuo's rebellion, took refuge in the Lang evil, and was harmed by Tao Qian, so Taizu was determined to return to the Eastern Expedition. In the summer, Xun Yu and Cheng Yu guarded Juancheng, reconquered Tao Qian, pulled out five cities, and then went to the East China Sea. returned to Tan, and Qian sent Cao Bao and Liu Bei to Tandong, and asked for Taizu. Taizu broke it, and then attacked Xiangben, and killed too much. ”

Chen Gong had a fierce argument with Cao Cao because of Cao Cao's slaughter of good people, large-scale killing, and crime hanging, begging Cao Cao not to harm the innocent. Cao Cao didn't listen, and because of the difference in political opinions, he left it in Yanzhou and didn't want to be reused. Chen Gong saw that words could not persuade his lord, and Cao Cao really "resumed the Eastern Expedition...... so many of them were killed", so he turned against Cao Cao in desperation. As a result, the people of Xuzhou were able to rest in peace, but Chen Gong fell into loneliness from then on.

Thinking of this, the corners of Chen Gongtai's eyes couldn't help but moisten. Thinking that for the sake of life and death for the people of a township, he did not hesitate to bear the infamy of the master, but turned against the lord who was as kind to him as a mountain, and went to take refuge in a Lu Bu who did not even have a base at that time, and did this tragic struggle with Cao Cao that had no chance of winning, even if it was a catastrophe, it was worth it.

Since Lu Bu escaped from Chang'an, he first took refuge in Yuan Shu and was not accepted, and then took refuge in Yuan Shao and was highly suspicious, and finally met Zhang Miao, just when he was floating everywhere and had no fixed place, Chen Gong and Zhang Chao, Xu Yan, Wang Kai and others united and betrayed Cao Cao. Chen Gong said to Zhang Miao at that time, "Now that the heroes are rising, the world is falling apart, the king is thousands of miles away, when the land of the four wars, the sword is enough to be proud, and the countermeasures are not contemptible!" Jinzhou army eastward crusade, where it is empty, Lu Bu strong, good at fighting forward, if the right to welcome it, together with the herd of Yanzhou, the situation in the world, and the flexibility of current affairs, this is also a time of vertical and horizontal. ”

In the official history, Chen Gong, Zhang Miao and others then set up Lu Bu as the pastor of Yanzhou, occupying Chenliu, Puyang and other places, with great momentum. Except for Juancheng, Fanxian, and Dong'e counties, all counties responded. Cao Cao knew that the Yanzhou base would be lost, so he hurriedly returned from Xuzhou to fight with Lü Bu, and was also defeated one after another.

It should be said that the relationship between Chen Gong and Lu Bu is not as written in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", they are more of an alliance, and Lu Bu is not the "lord" of Chen Gong. Their relationship is a bit like that of Oda Nobunaga and Tokugawa Ieyasu. Lu Bu relied on Chen Gong and guarded against it; Many times, they also had to succumb to the opinions of Chen Gong and others.

For example, in the battle with Cao Cao, Lu Bu had the intention of surrendering three times and five times, but he was stopped by Chen Gong. "Taizu self-levied cloth, to his city, and left a book, for Chen Woe and Blessing. The cloth wanted to surrender, and Chen Gong and the others thought they were guilty and frustrated. "In the official history, in the end, Lu Bu was not captured, but surrendered on his own initiative. Lü Bu's surrender was also because Chen Gong was captured, and Lü Bu lost his backbone and the will to resist.

"Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms" contains: "In the March of Taizu's encirclement, he centrifuged up and down, and he bound Hou Cheng, Song Xian, and Wei Xu to the Chen Palace and surrendered them. Cloth and his subordinates ascended the White Gate Tower. The siege is urgent, but it is down. In this alliance, Chen Gong and other Yanzhou faction clans even dominated, and Lü Bu had to surrender to Cao Cao because Chen Gong was captured.

Walking out of Qingxian Palace, looking at the back of Long Ball and the others, Chen Gong was sad in his heart, and said that good birds choose trees to perch, and virtuous ministers choose the master to do things, how could Long Ball succumb to Zhang Yan's stupid pig? But aren't you also sympathetic?

At that time, in the late years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when there was a great chaos and chaos, Chen Gong chose Lu Bu It was really a helpless move, looking at the world at that time, Dong Zhuo was newly dead, Yuan Shaoxiong lived in Jizhou, and his strategists and generals had a basket, and there was no shortage of him Chen Gong. And Yuan Shao himself is "wide on the outside and on the inside, and there is no decision", Chen Gong himself does not look down on such a master at all, and Yuan Shu of Huainan, as Cao Cao said, is "dry bones in the grave", which is insignificant, Yuan Shu got the jade seal from others, and thought that the world was his surname Yuan, holding a cold stone all day long and dreaming, like such a master, how could Chen Gong be willing to give in?

The emperor's uncle Liu Bei was considered to have great ambitions and was a corporal of Lixian, but Liu Bei did not even have a base for revolution at that time, and in terms of strength, Liu Bei was not a separatist force at all, and Chen Gongben did not include him in the scope of consideration.

Speaking of which, Chen Gong is a little arrogant, and is quite willful in choosing the lord, like a lord who obeys his words, likes the feeling of being a master, and likes a monarch who obeys his orders and can give full play to his talents.

The ideal monarch chosen by Chen Gong is like this, he is capable and tolerant, but he cannot be too strong, and he must obey his words; It already has a certain amount of power, ability, and fame. Cao manipulated the envoy with all kinds of abilities, and he couldn't follow Cao Cao. First, Cao Cao's personal ability is too strong, and he will definitely not be able to do Cao Cao; The second is that Cao Cao treats people who are not conducive to him, absolutely kills people without blinking, and will slaughter the city and create bloodshed.

After leaving Cao Cao, Chen Gong found Lu Bu, but did not find Yuan Shu, this is because Yuan Shu is too stupid, at this time everyone shot the first bird, and he also risked the world's disapproval to claim the emperor, and the princes will definitely take the opportunity to crusade against Yuan Shu with the order of the Son of Heaven. As for the subsequent defeat and retreat, he didn't even find a way to take refuge in Liu Bei. Liu Bei was pitiful at that time with more than 1,000 soldiers, and the people under him were all martial artists, and Liu Bei's fame was not as big as him, so of course he couldn't take refuge.

At this moment, Chen Gong looked at the back of the Dragon Ball and once again put a big question mark on his future. The wisdom of this Dragon Ball is far-reaching, and there are talents like Long Zhou under him, so he should be a fierce rival between himself and the lord. When Cao Cao is eliminated, we must first find out the details of this person.

Zang Ba didn't have so many twists and turns in his heart, and since he had decided on the strategy, he hurried back to the camp to prepare. Chen Gong took a horse back to Chen Liu, and talked about this Dragon Ball with Zhang Liao, and they were all puzzled about where such a powerful character came from.

Zhang Liao is 30 years old this year, but he is tall and strong, walking like a dragon, and has the style of a general. His rectangular face, narrow eyes, and especially the towering carved eagle nose, combined with the tightly pursed corners of his mouth, show his resolute and resolute nature.

After listening to Chen Gong's description of the strategy of joining forces, Zhang Liao exhaled a breath of turbidity and said, "Military Division, are you sure you want me to stay in Chenliu?"

Chen Gong nodded and said, "Guarding Chen Liu, except for Wen Yuan, I don't feel at ease with the rest." Moreover, the focus of defense, including the Montenegrin army, may appear on all sides, and only a person as delicate as Wen Yuan can defend the city, and must not be rashly moved. ”

Zhang Liao was surprised: "It turns out that the military advisor is still guarding against the Black Mountain Army in his heart." Then why work with them and open the ferry to them to the east?"

Chen Gong said: "Before I opened the ferry, I couldn't figure out the movements of the 200,000 Black Mountain Army. So, even if they float all the way to the sea on the Yellow River, I won't send someone to stop them. ”

According to the intelligence, they first invaded Yuan Shu's Mengjin ferry, robbed many warships, and then declared that they were going to attack Jizhou, and also sent 50,000 troops to Huguan, pretending to land on Jizhou from the Yellow River and directly threaten Yecheng. However, their goal was to land on the south bank of the Yellow River to attack Juancheng and threaten Cao Cao, who I heard was the general under Kong Beihai. ”

Zhang Liao said: "So that's the case, it seems that the purpose of their alliance with us is to prevent Cao Cao from successfully taking Qingzhou, but this is also in our interests, if we can take advantage of this to obtain part of the city of Yanzhou, and then continue to expand to the east and south, it will be a better base." ”

Chen Gong nodded and said: "Wen Yuan is right, we use each other and take what we need, but we must beware of each other, don't be careless, we will be swallowed up by others first." ”

"I agree to cooperate with them, just because we are here, we must not become an obstacle to the army of 200,000, that is a force we cannot bear. If we don't cooperate, we will become their first obstacle, and if we can't even defeat us, how can the Montenegrin army enter the Central Plains? Therefore, for the good of the lord, we must give him the ferry, and not wait for him to come down. ”

Zhang Liao was silent for a moment and sighed: "200,000 troops, that Zhang Yan has always dared not go out and merge the state, how can he be so resolute this time?"

Chen Gong also sighed: "Dragon Ball, this person is by no means simple, it seems that the war in the Central Plains will be peaceful." Only when we are wise enough to protect ourselves, grasp the opportunity to attack Yanzhou, and at the same time preserve our vital forces, can we develop on the basis of self-preservation. Wen Yuan, no matter what, Chen Liu is still our only foundation, you must be optimistic! ”

Zhang Liao stood up, and said with a little light in his narrow tiger eyes: "Although the military advisor can rest assured, people are in the city, and people are dead in the city!" ”

Chen Gong nodded with satisfaction, he knew Zhang Liao's ability very well, with him leading 30,000 soldiers to defend to the death, even if the 200,000 Black Mountain Army besieged the city, he would have the strength to fight. Then he said lightly: "Wenyuan, after tomorrow, I will meet with General Zang Ba, go to the lord's side, distribute troops, choose a day to go on the expedition, and I hope to meet again I have a new stronghold." Saying that, he looked sad and sighed: "Wen Yuan, the eldest husband is shrouded in horse leather, it was nothing; I'm just worried, the white butterfly has an unknown origin, but it has taken away the soul of your lord, who is she?"
