Verse 88: The contemptible scheme
As soon as he heard Ma Chao's name, Ma Teng's face changed slightly, but he immediately covered up the past, and said with a slight smile: "Teng does have a son under his knees, named 'Ma Chao'." However, now in the northwest, wars are raging, and there are many traitors pretending to be Han soldiers and horses to confuse the public. I'm afraid that the plan will be broken! ”
Ma Teng explained like this, and Zang Ba, who was sitting on Ma Teng's left side, was a little unhappy: A month ago, he was almost slaughtered, and now he has found the murderer, and this Lao Tzu is still repaying his debts! At that moment, Zang Ba got up suddenly, and when he was about to refute, Guan Yan raised his hand and stopped Zang Ba from speaking.
Guan Yan looked at Ma Teng and smiled: "I see, it seems that Yan was negligent, Master Ma is really far-sighted!" Saying that, Guan Yanruo looked at Ma Teng meaningfully, said slightly, and deliberately added the words "far-sighted".
Ma Teng laughed dryly when he heard this, got up and clasped his fists and said: "Guan Po has an overreputation, if there is nothing else, Teng will leave first!" ”
"Then Master Ma walks slowly! I won't be far away! Guan Yan replied with a fist.
"Farewell!" As soon as Ma Teng moved, he turned around and strode out of the tent.
Looking at Ma Teng's figure gradually moving away, he took a step forward and said softly: "The lord suspects that this Ma Teng is colluding with Han Sui?" ”
Guan Yan nodded, but then shook his head and said: "Ma Teng's ancestor Ma Yuan is the founding general under Emperor Guangwu, how can Ma Teng damage his ancestral foundation?" Ma Teng's rescue of Han Sui is probably just for a brotherhood! ”
"Brotherhood?" Everyone around him couldn't help but be surprised.
Ma Teng is now just a small military horse, and he has not yet moved the world, who will investigate his details in detail?
But these things, Guan Yan from later generations know.
Guan Yan looked at everyone's reactions, smiled and said: "Han Sui and Ma Teng are righteous brothers, in the battle of Jincheng, Ma Teng must have known that Han Sui was defeated and fled, so he sent his son Ma Chao to respond." ”
"Then why don't you tell Geng Contempt? Pick up Ma Teng! When Zhou Cang heard this, he stood up and said in an urn voice.
Guan Yan smiled bitterly and shook his head, but did not make a sound, so that the people around him did not understand why.
Chen Deng, who is familiar with Guan Yan's character, thought for a moment, chuckled, looked at Zhou Cang and said: "Old Zhou, don't be impulsive, Deng thinks that the lord has a heart of love!" ”
"Ahh Zhou Cang stared at the double mung bean eyes, looked at Guan Yan and said, "Lord, that Ma Teng doesn't seem to be a person who has lived under the people for a long time!" ”
"Hahaha~~~" Xi Zhicai laughed and said: "I didn't expect General Zhou to look at people and things!" ”
Zhou Cang's old face turned red, like a bear, and he hurriedly said: "The military advisor is smiling, smiling." ”
Xi Zhicai did not continue to ridicule Zhou Cang, but said with a straight face: "What General Zhou said is not bad, Ma Teng is really not a person!" It's just that the lord doesn't want to recruit Ma Teng. ”
"Who's that?" Zhou Cang looked at Xi Zhicai with a confused expression.
At this time, Chen Deng's result topic: "What the lord thinks in his heart must be that Xiliang 'Jinma Chao'!" ”
This sentence surprised the people present, especially Zang Ba, who almost lost his life and Ma Chao's gun, had a complicated expression.
Guan Yan glanced at the crowd and said: "You must be thinking in your hearts: General Zang was seriously injured and Ma Chao was shot, and I, Guan Yan, didn't want to avenge him, and I wanted to recruit Ma Chao, which really chilled the generals, didn't it?" ”
Zang Ba, Ji Ling, and Zhou Cang didn't say anything, but it could be seen from their looks that they were also looking forward to Guan Yan's answer.
Guan Yan lowered his head slightly, put his hands behind his back, and said in a deep voice: "Ancestor Guan Zhong, once the prince was entangled, in order to seize the throne of Qi, he shot and killed Duke Huan, and the arrow entered the buckle, and Duke Huan was able to escape. If you talk about hatred, is the enmity between Duke Huan and the ancestors deep? ”
Guan Yan frowned and looked around at everyone, and everyone frowned and thought hard when they heard this.
At this time, Guan Yan suddenly raised his tone and said in a high-pitched voice: "After Duke Ran Huan ascended the throne, he was recommended by Uncle Bao, worshiped the ancestors as his appearance, made full use of his talents, and then became a spring and autumn hegemony!" If Duke Huan kills his ancestors because of revenge, can the great cause of Qi be known? ”
The crowd remained silent, silent.
Guan Yan walked a few steps and came to Zang Ba, and said sincerely: "Is Xuan Gao willing to be Uncle Bao, with the heart of all Guan Yanhuan?" ”
After Zang Ba listened to Guan Yan's words, he was suddenly ashamed in his heart. Zang Ba hugged his fist at Guan Yan and replied firmly: "Lord, the last general will know his mistake!" ”
After that, Zang Ba had to kneel down and admit his mistake.
Guan Yan steadily dragged Zang Ba's arms and said, "Xuan Gao, don't be like this! ”
Helping Zang Ba up, Guan Yan patted Zang Ba's shoulder, walked back to everyone and looked at everyone and said, "If you want to achieve great things, you should recruit talents from all over the world!" No matter how much he loves talents, but he is not an unrighteous person, your feelings, Yan Ming feels in his heart. Come, replace wine with tea today, brothers have made this cup! ”
"!" Everyone raised the tea bowl in their hands and drank it all, and the bitter tea was drunk by the people in the tent The aroma of the spirits was drunk, and the aftertaste was endless!
Inside the Liangzhou Army camp.
On the right side of the tent hangs a map of Liangzhou made of sturdy cowhide, and a middle-aged man in Confucian costume is holding an oil lamp, squinting his eyes to carefully observe the details on the map.
The index finger of his right hand slowly rubbed over the map with the movement of the oil lamp.
"Yes, that's it!" The Confucian man, his right hand knocked heavily on the map, his brows gradually relaxed, and he said loudly: "Come here, call Fu Xie here!" ”
"Whoa!" A neat answer came from outside the tent.
After a while, the curtain of the tent was opened, and a man in his thirties entered calmly, between which he was eight feet long and majestic, and although it was late at night, he was still neatly dressed in his official uniform and meticulous.
This is exactly the Fu Xie in the mouth of the Confucian man!
Fu Xie looked at the Confucian man and said deeply: "Hanyang is too shou Fu Xie to meet Geng Thorn History!" ”
It turns out that this Confucian man is the Liangzhou assassin Shi Geng contempt!
Geng Contempt raised his right hand and said, "Fu Taishou doesn't need to be polite, please take a seat!" ”
"Thank you, sir!" Fu Xie straightened up and walked to the side and sat down.
Geng Wei put down the oil lamp in his hand, walked back to the main seat and sat down and said, "This assassin called Nanrong to come here, there is something to discuss. ”
Nanrong is Fu Xie's cousin, but Fu Xie still replied very seriously: "Don't dare, please tell the history of the assassination!" ”
"Come on." Geng Yan waved his hand, raised the oil lamp and came to the cowhide map, and said to Fu Xie, who was following him: "Nanrong, this assassin wants to enter the army from now on!" As he spoke, Geng's disdainful index finger pointed to a black dot on the map, and next to the black dot were written two small characters: Di Dao!
Fu Xie frowned, stroked the beard under his chin, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Lord Thorn Shi, Di Dao is the seat of the county seat of Longxi County. Han Sui's troops, Di Dao will have five or six out of ten! ”
Fu Xie's sentence means that Di Dao's troops are stronger, so it is better to fight steadily.
How do you know that Geng Cong became excited when he heard this, and said loudly: "I am about to use all my elite troops, travel five hundred miles, and raid Di Dao!" ”
-----------I'm really embarrassed, these two days are good, and there are too many relatives who are married! So it's late, hehe-----------------
