Chapter 359: Revisiting the Old Place (2)

"General Gao, please stay! The old man thought that the two of them were visiting at this moment, and there must be nothing good, but it was better not to see it! ”

"Hehe, I said Brother Gongtai, it's been so long? Your anger hasn't gone away, huh? After being stopped, Gao Shun replied with a smile.

"Humph! The two of them not only abandoned the city when our army was in the most difficult time, but also stole and took it when they left, how could my Chen Palace forget it? So I hope General Gao, don't pay attention to these two traitors! ”

After Lu Bu's death, Gao Shun succeeded to the throne, and Chen Gong naturally became Gao Shun's military advisor.

Listening to what the military advisors have said, if Gao Shun doesn't care about it, it doesn't seem to be appropriate.

So after thinking about it, he temporarily dismissed the idea of leaving the city.

He pulled up a chair and sat down on the spot and spoke to the soldier who reported the news:

"Did Huaxing say why they came?"

The guard nodded and replied:

"General Qiyu, General Hua said, they ...... It's here to pay off debts. ”

"Paying off debts?"

"Exactly! Here's a list of supplies he gave me......"

As he spoke, the messenger took out a yellow note from his arms and handed it to Chen Gong:

"He said that he had borrowed from you thirty-seven carts of grain and grass, four thousand three hundred taels of silver, a cart of jewels, and some weapons...... This time he made a special trip to pay off his debts. ”

After looking at the note in his hand, he heard Chen Gong snort coldly, and said with disbelief in his eyes:

"Humph! Is the repayment of debts paid by mouth? Where's the thing? Have you seen the supplies? ”

After hearing this, the guard immediately nodded and replied:

"Back to my lord, General Hua came this time and brought a total of more than 100 grain trucks. Although the small one has not been inspected, I suspect that the car should be filled with the returned items. ”

"Oh? Brought hundreds of grain trucks? After listening to the soldier's report, Gao Shun suddenly frowned: "Then how many people did he bring?" ”

"Except for the soldiers in charge of transportation, there seem to be only a dozen or so people."

"What? Only a dozen or so people? Gao Shun was puzzled and said:

"Then what's the use of him bringing so many grain carts? Even if you want to return the supplies, isn't fifty or sixty enough? ”

"Oh! It's the subordinates who didn't make it clear. ”

Asked by Gao Shun, the soldier hurriedly added:

General Hua said that in his most difficult period, it was General Gao who helped him by sending charcoal in the snow. As a token of gratitude, he deserves to be doubled! ”

As early as more than a year ago, Huaxing mentioned in a letter to Gao Shun that he would return the "borrowed" materials in double.

After Gao Shun read it, he didn't believe it, but only regarded it as the other party's exaggeration.

Unexpectedly, Huaxing really sent double the supplies back today!

After hearing the news, Gao Shun immediately raised his eyebrows, jumped up from the chair, and walked towards the soldier:

"Hehe, this Huaxing, is it really true to his word? Not bad, not bad! Let's go out of the city with me to meet ......."

But before the word "pick up" could be spoken, Chen Gong's voice rang in Gao Shun's ears again:

"General Gao, slow down! Please listen to the old man again! ”

After being stopped by Chen Gong for the second time, although Gao Shun was displeased, he still stopped:

"What's the matter with Junshi Chen? You also heard just now that Hua Xing and Zhang Liao came to return the materials, and there was no malicious intent. And they only brought a dozen soldiers with them on this trip, what else do you have to worry about? ”

After hearing this, he saw Chen Gong take a step forward and salute Gao Shunxian respectfully:

"General Gao is reasonable, if only from a moral point of view, I should not have stopped the general from leaving the city, so the old man should apologize to the general first." After Chen Gong straightened his waist, his tone immediately changed:

"However, as the head of an army, the general can't just care about morality and forget etiquette!"

"Chen Junshi, what do you mean by that?" Gao Shun frowned and asked:

"General Ben just went out of the city to greet two old friends, why did he forget the etiquette?"

Hearing this, Chen Gong replied while twisting his beard:

"First, Huaxing and Zhang Liao left Hongnong at the most difficult time for our army, and they stole and took a lot of supplies with them when they left. So in the old man's opinion, the two of them are by no means as simple as 'old friends', they are more like two insatiable traitors...... Since he is a traitor, the general's attitude towards the two of them is very crucial. If you go out of the city to greet you at this moment, and the other soldiers see it, they will probably think that the general doesn't mind the 'rebels'. If they follow suit in the future, how should the general respond? So the old man thought that even if the general didn't mind this matter, he must not show it in public, so as not to cause misunderstanding! ”

Seeing that Gao Shun heard this, he stood in place for a long time without making a sound.

Chen Gong knew that his words had had had an effect, so he hurriedly struck while the iron was hot:

"Second, I heard that Huaxing has been very close to Cao Cao recently, and Cao Cao is at war with those two Yuans, and the battle situation is not optimistic. They are coming out of nowhere at this moment, most likely because it has something to do with it! So, to be on the safe side, I advise the general not to greet him personally. After the old man finds out the truth of the two of them, you decide whether to meet or not! ”

I have to say that Chen Gong is not only smart, but also eloquent!

However, with just a few words, he hit the nail on the head, said Gao Shun with a hesitant face, frowned, and sat back on the chair with a swaying attitude.

After pondering for a long time, he raised his head and asked:

"Alas! According to the opinion of the military advisor, what should be done now? ”

"Easy!" Chen Gong replied without hesitation:

"Directly put him and his party in prison, and lock them up for a while!"

"Huh? W-That's not good, right? Gao Shun said with an embarrassed face: "People are here to repay debts, but we ......"

"General Gao, it's true that they are here to pay off their debts, but they are still traitors and criminals! Only by doing so can the whole army see your attitude towards traitors, and I hope the general will not hesitate again! ”

Seeing that he had persuaded him for a long time, Gao Shun was still entangled and couldn't make up his mind, so Chen Gong had to take a step back and said:

"Of course, we don't really want to punish them for anything, just to make a show and not let them run around. After the old man finds out the true purpose of their trip, you will make a final decision. What do you think? ”

Hearing that he didn't really want to punish Hua and Zhang, Gao Shuncai reluctantly agreed to the matter and nodded at Chen Gong.

After getting Gao Shun's approval, Chen Gong immediately showed joy.

After taking his leave, he took five hundred soldiers and walked out of the city......

***

After waiting outside the city for half an hour, seeing that someone finally came out, Hua Xing and Zhang Liao greeted him at the same time.

But when they got closer, the person who came turned out to be Chen Gong, who they didn't want to see the most, and the two of them instantly furrowed their brows.
