Chapter 147: Ma Jian is a ghost

Outside the camp gate, Shen Ding and his entourage turned over and dismounted, standing with their hands tied, a little apprehensive.

Because the sergeant at the gate of the camp is holding a bow full of circles, eyeing the tiger. The next moment, it is not uncommon to shoot arrows and take his life.

If the idlers still dare not come to do this kind of surrender, Shen Ding dares to come, which can be regarded as quite bold.

Soon after, Shen Ding exhaled a breath as the sound of men and horses sounded, and the camp gate opened. Shen Ding knew that it was the Lord who came, so he couldn't help wiping his cold sweat, bowing down and waiting for him, twelve points cautious.

"Hahaha. Captain Shen. I have heard for a long time that Captain Shen is brave and good at fighting, but it is a pity that I didn't have the opportunity to see it, but I am really happy to see it today" Guan Ping took the lead, turned over and dismounted, and grabbed Shen Ding's hands, a polite corporal, bold and extraordinary.

Guan Ping is still his uncle, and Liu Bei has big ears.

As for this declaration, although the name is not well known, and the number of soldiers led is only a few hundred, the official residence and school captain show that the official position in the late Han Dynasty was chaotic.

Shen Ding glanced up at Guan Ping, but he was not surprised by Guan Ping's youth, because he had already heard of it.

The son of Hanshou Hou Guan Yu, a magical boy with a total horn.

And Shen Ding was also relieved, he saw Guan Ping's faction, and he felt that the surrender was stable.

As for the face, Shen Ding said: "Captain Guan is serious, I'm just an incompetent and mediocre person." He immediately declared himself guilty and said: "My family is too guarded to guard the town, but when they saw the chaos pressing the border, they didn't know the situation, so they defended the city." If he had known that it was the prince of Hanshou Hou, Captain Guan personally led his troops to come, and he would have opened the city to greet him. It's really sinful, guilty. ”

"I see, that's a misunderstanding." Guan Ping didn't think so, and said with a smile on his face.

Immediately, Guan Ping and Shen Ding said a lot of things in front of Yingmen, most of them were admiration, value and the like, and the Shen Ding was a little fluttering.

Is our family really that powerful?

After that, Guan Ping sent Shen Ding back, promising that as long as the Shen brothers surrendered in Kaicheng, they would not be blamed for the past.

Soon after Shen Ding returned, Shen Tan and Shen Yi brothers led the officials in the city out of the city to surrender, and Shen Tan still held the seal of Shangyong Taishou and the list of population officials of Shangyong County.

As with Shen Ding, Guan Ping was also a corporal of Lixian to the two brothers, and he was extremely kind. But despite this, Guan Ping should be cautious or cautious.

He ordered Zhou Xiong and Li Fei to lead 8,000 men and women, still separated in the north of the city and the camp in the south of the city. Ordered Gan Ning to lead his men into the city.

In order to prevent a situation, there is no need to divide troops to guard the four gates.

Gan Ning was stationed at the North City Gate, drove away the Shen family soldiers outside the North City Gate, and guarded the city gate. If the situation is not right, then kill through this door.

After being stabilized, Gan Ning sent the battalion Sima Shen to guard the city gate, and he led a thousand elite soldiers to escort Guan Ping and Ma Jian into the city, accompanied by the Shen brothers.

After entering the city, Guan Ping came to stay in the Taishou Mansion, and the personnel in the mansion were sent away. Gan Ning's elite soldiers surrounded the Taishou Mansion.

After that, Guan Ping held a banquet in the lobby to entertain the three Shen brothers.

It seems a bit strange to say this, because this was originally the Taishou Mansion of the Shen brothers. But as the saying goes, if you occupy the big house, it's mine.

Now Guan Ping occupies the upper memorial, this Taishou Mansion, of course, is Guan Ping's.

Therefore, it seems that Guan Ping set up a banquet here to entertain him, and it seems that it is not so strange.

In the lobby, Guan Ping sat on the main seat, and the three brothers of the Shen family were guests, Ma Tan and Gan Ning were accompanied. The wine and food are also the wine and food in the army, but they are just cooked meat and millet wine.

Guan Ping and the Shen brothers talked and laughed, and raised a toast from time to time. The Shen brothers were forced to smile, and they didn't feel good in their hearts.

It's the same thing.

Not long ago, this mansion and Shangyong City were all their brothers, and their Shen family was in charge, but now they were defeated by Gan Ning, so they could only surrender the city.

At the moment, he is drinking here as a guest.

Of course, it tastes unpleasant.

Guan Ping has also been trained over the years, and he knows that these three brothers are forced to smile, but they only don't know, laughing and feasting.

After the feast, Guan Ping was slightly drunk, red clouds floated on his cheeks, and his eyes were blurred. Guan Ping said to the three Shen brothers: "Shen Taishou has been raising troops for more than ten years, and he has shocked the three counties. Although I pacified the three counties today, I am afraid that the people around me will not be ghosts. So I plan to continue to use Shen Taishou as the superior Taishou, and the leaders are still the same. In order to deter the three counties and nine counties, I don't know what to do with Shen Tai's will? ”

After the Shen brothers presented the city, they were mentally prepared to be stripped of their powers.

This is one of the reasons for their loss.

Hearing what Guan Ping said, the brother was suddenly surprised. The three of them glanced at each other, and Shen Tan wept and said: "My brothers and I blocked the army, but atoned for the captain, and promised to be too guarded, and the leader of the troops is still the same." Dare to die without it? ”

Shen Yi and Shen Ding also bowed and saluted, saying "I am willing to serve the work of dogs and horses." ”

Ma Tan's eyes flashed when he saw this, but Gan Ning was indifferent.

The situation seems to be very harmonious, Guan Ping newly entered the city, and treated the Shen family's brother Corporal Lixian, and promised to lead the troops as before, and the county as before, and trusted him.

"There are three guards in the town, and my Guan family father and son can sit back and relax." Guan Ping stroked his palms and laughed, very happy. Immediately, Guan Ping asked the three brothers of the Shen family to go down.

Ordered Gan Ning to guard the Taishou Mansion while occupying the surrounding mansions.

A Taishou Mansion can't stuff more than a thousand elite soldiers.

If Guan Ping wants to sleep peacefully in Shangyong City, he can't do it without the protection of these thousand elite soldiers.

After that, Guan Ping got up and went to the study, and Ma Jian saw Guan Ping get up and followed. The two of them went to the study and sat down.

After Guan Ping came to the study, he sat down cross-legged.

Kneeling is not good for the knees.

Guan Ping is usually very casual.

"Youchang, what do you see?" Guan Ping glanced at Ma Tan, he didn't ask Ma Jian to follow, but Ma Jian followed, and Guan Ping knew what the clever ghost had seen.

"Lord Captain wants to kill the Shen brothers?" Ma Yan, Guan Ping is not only a friend, but also a confidant and a sibling, so he said bluntly without taking care of it.

"How so?" Guan Ping asked quietly.

"The Shen brothers have been in the army for more than ten years, and they are not satisfied with the court or Liu Biao. In the Shangyong tree, the roots are deep, and you occupy the three counties and establish it as the foundation. If the troops are out, if these three people have evil intentions, they will have elbows and armpits. The best move is to give the three people idle and send them to Xinye house arrest. And now, my lord, you pet the three of you to continue to be the mediocre guard, and the leader is still the same, which is the murderous intent. ”

Ma Tan said quietly.

Ma Tan was right.

Guan Ping wanted to kill someone.

In fact, the best way is also what Ma Tan said. The three were sent to Xinye and placed under house arrest. But Guan Ping is still not at ease, and the Shen family is deeply rooted in Shangyong.

And Guan Ping planned to use the three counties as the foundation and send troops to the Quartet. If the Shen brothers run out to make trouble in Hanzhong or attack Xiangyang, wouldn't it be a fire in the backyard? Elbow and axillary changes?

Of course, the main thing is that Guan Ping is deeply hostile to the Shen brothers.

The two brothers have historically watched his father be defeated.

Of course, this is not the main reason for Guan Ping's hostility, but it is also a secondary reason.

Moreover, the brothers are deeply entrenched in the upper class, which is also a secondary reason.

The main reason is that the two brothers are at both ends of the head, left and right. Especially Shen Yi, who first surrendered and prepared, then drove Liu Feng away with Meng Da, and then opposed Meng Da, and jointly killed Meng Da with Sima Yi, and was finally captured alive by Sima Yi and sent to the imperial court as an idle general.

This Shen Yi's heart is very strong, and his will is very strong.

This must be guarded against.

These reasons are entangled together, and Guan Ping wants to kill these three people to prevent future troubles.

Guan Ping is by no means a vicious person, and he is willing to be a second ancestor in this life. But since the storm and clouds will meet, Beibei has no choice but to die of illness, and his father Guan Yu carries the banner, he can only intrigue.

As the so-called kindness of a woman is not advisable.

Since Guan Ping wanted to take the three counties as his foundation, he had to eradicate the Shen brothers.

But now there is also a problem.

Guan Ping nodded at Ma Jian and admitted the matter. Then he sighed, "I want to kill these three people to prevent future troubles, but these three people are obedient people after all." If I kill him, I am afraid that no one will ever submit to me again. Young often, can there be means? ”

Ma Jian obviously had a plan in his mind, and said: "At this moment, Liu Biao is afraid that he has already raised troops, and my lord can lead a large group of men and horses to return to Fangling for defense, leaving Captain Gan behind." Captain Gan was a Jinfan thief in his early years, rough and easy to kill. In a fit of rage, he killed the three brothers. And the adults are far away in Fangling, and they have nothing to do with this matter, and they will not fall into the mouth. ”

"Borrow a knife to kill." Guan Ping pointed at Ma Jian and thought, this kid is really a ghost.

"Good. Tomorrow, the army will march out and return to Fangling. Guan Ping said.

Early the next morning, Guan Ping left Gan Ning to lead a thousand elite soldiers and stationed them in the camp north of the city. Gan Ning's battalion Sima Shen led 3,000 elite soldiers, and Zhou Xiong and Li Fei led 8,000 men and women to return to Fangling with Guan Ping.

At the same time, Guan Ping sent officials to the remaining three county towns in the nine counties. Now that Guan Ping has occupied six counties, those three county towns are very weak and pitiful, and there should be no more waves, so Guan Ping just sent officials to say surrender.

After Guan Ping returned to Fangling, Fangling City was very different. In a short period of time, Ma Liang and Li Zheng repaired, strengthened and heightened the wall of Fangling.

Li Zheng also recruited new soldiers in the city, and the number of soldiers he led increased to four battalions, totaling more than 2,000 people.

Recruits, of course, do not have the ability to fight in the field. But Fangling is in the deep mountains, and almost everyone is good at shooting. Li Zheng used the original veteran to command the new soldiers.

Although you can't go out of the city to fight, it's enough to defend the city.

At the same time, Guan Ping heard the news. Zhao Tong, Mi Wei, Zhang Bao, Liao Hua, Ding Feng, Ding Feng and others who were scattered out also recruited new soldiers and are currently stationed in the remaining four counties.

Although it is fat, Guan Ping's forces are indeed expanding rapidly.

The number of county seats has increased by nine, with a population of more than 100,000.

The strength began to increase dramatically.

This is the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms.

Although Guan Ping helped Liu Bei come up with some ideas, Liu Bei's strength expanded rapidly. But in fact, it was not as fast as the grab.
