Chapter 213, Zhang Miao and Chen Gong
。。。
Early the next morning, Liu Yi woke up and saw Cai Wenji in his arms, looking at him with his eyes open.
Liu Yi said with a smile: "How long have you been awake, why didn't you wake me up." ”
Cai Wenji opened Liu Yi's salty pig hand and said, "Seeing that you are too tired, I didn't call you, husband, get up, you still have to go to the government affairs hall." ”
Liu Yi laughed and said, "I'm sorry, I'm lying in bed today, and you are not allowed to get up." ”
Cai Wenji snorted, Liu Yi's salty pig hand touched it again, remembering the clouds and rain last night, and said shyly: "If you don't go to the government affairs hall, the Xuande Guild will punish you, get up quickly." ”
Liu Yi approached Cai Wenji and said in her ear, "Do you really want to get up?" Are you sure? ”
The movements of the hands did not stop.
Cai Wenji's face turned even redder, but reason told her that it was daytime, and she couldn't let Liu Yi mess around, besides, Liu Yi still had a headache yesterday, and there must be something to do.
whispered: "Husband, get up quickly, you still have something to do, you can't spend all your time on me." ”
After speaking, he opened Liu Yi's salty pig hand again, but that hand was getting more and more excessive.
Liu Yi remembered that he still had a task today, and said with a smile: "Okay, then get up and go to bed at night, hehe." ”
Dressing, washing, all in one go, Liu Yi looked at Cai Wenji on the bed, and said with a smile: "You can sleep again, I'll go to the government affairs hall first, Uncle Zhou will be ready for breakfast, get up and eat something." ”
Cai Wenji nodded, then shrunk into the quilt and watched Liu Yi leave.
Liu Yi smiled and kissed Cai Wenji's forehead, and then left, holding a pastry in one hand.
Walking into the government affairs hall and finding that everyone was discussing around the map, Liu Yi stuffed the pastry into his mouth and walked over with a smile.
Guo Jia saw Liu Yi coming, and said with a smile: "Ziang, Xuande Gong agreed to our expedition yesterday, and now it's time to plan how to enter Xuzhou." ”
Liu Yi nodded, this group of people didn't know what time they slept yesterday, they were really perverted, they took a closer look and found that there was one person missing.
Asked suspiciously, "Wenhe has already set off?" ”
Xi Zhicai nodded and said, "He said last night that he would set off overnight and would communicate with us when he arrived in Xuzhou, and he should be on the road now." ”
Liu Yi also walked over and saw the traces on the map, and said with a smile: "Let's wait a month before entering Yanzhou, now let Cao Cao and them fight a dozen, this month we have only one goal, that is, to collect chickens, live roosters, hens, big chickens and small chickens." ”
Guo Jia looked at Liu Yi and waited for his explanation.
Liu Yi said: "A month later, the locust plague, and then the drought, that is the best time for us to enter the field, Cao Cao They don't know that there will be natural disasters, and they will definitely be in a hurry at that time. ”
Guo Jia's eyes lit up, nodded with a smile, and agreed: "I have no opinion, since Ziang has calculated the specific time of the natural disaster, this time, I will just play soy sauce." ”
Xi Zhicai was also a little surprised, he didn't expect Liu Yi to be so confident and directly tell the time of the natural disaster, is he really afraid of being embarrassed when the time comes.
But since Liu Yi said it, Xi Zhicai also believed him and said: "Then do what Ziang said, we will try our best to buy chickens and prepare for the resistance to the locust plague." ”
In this way, Qingzhou's plan was decided, it was very hurried and arbitrary, everything stemmed from the trust in Liu Yi, but if Liu Yi did not succeed this time, it is estimated that it will be impossible to engage in this kind of one-word hall in the future.
Qingzhou's actions were very fast, and there was no disguise, buying a lot of chickens, and the price of chickens has risen.
At the same time, in Yanzhou, this interesting thing is happening as well.
Zhang Miao was drinking with Lu Bu at this time.
Zhang Miao laughed and said: "Feng Xian is really brave, I didn't expect that even Xiliang's Flying Bear Rider failed to defeat you, it is worth celebrating, this time to eliminate Cao Cao, it depends on Feng Xian." ”
Lu Bu laughed and said: "Just Cao Cao, I don't care about it, there is a public platform, and there are wolf riders under my command, and I guarantee that he will be beaten to the ground." ”
Zhang Miao was overjoyed: "Okay, okay, then celebrate our success in advance." ”
Lu Bu also smiled and raised his glass to drink with Zhang Miao.
The joy of the guests is only a superficial scene.
After Zhang Miao left, Chen Gong came out of it, and Lu Bu was still drinking, but he didn't have much excitement.
Chen Gong said with a smile: "This Zhang Miao, he has no ambitions, after driving away Cao Cao, he can get rid of him, get Yanzhou, look at the world, and the general's hegemony is just around the corner." ”
Lu Bu shook his head: "I don't want any hegemony, this time, after getting Yanzhou, I want grain and grass, and if there is a place to supply grain and grass, I can go back to Merge Zhou, and I should go back to give an explanation to the villagers after leaving for a long time." ”
Chen Gong's complexion changed slightly, but Lu Bu didn't notice it, and said with a smile: "It's okay to go back to Bingzhou, and return to your hometown." ”
Lu Bu didn't speak, just kept drinking. Many people will bear an infamy in history, and Lu Bu has always been scolded as a slave with three surnames, but at this moment, Lu Bu does not have much hatred in his heart, only guilt for the villagers and nostalgia for his hometown.
Zhang Miao left Lu Bu's mansion, and suddenly felt for a moment whether he had done something wrong, Zhang Miao was not stupid, Lu Bu and Chen Gong had their own little abacus to see, and Cao Cao had been friends for many years, but in the end, it fell to the point of life and death swords, Zhang Miao didn't know whether to do it or not.
When Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou, it was Chen Gong who welcomed Lu Bu to Yanzhou, and Chen Gong also came to persuade himself, and he agreed as soon as his brain was hot, mainly because Zhang Miao had always been a little anxious in his heart, an anxiety that his life was about to be lost, and the relationship between Chen Gong and Cao Cao was really good. When Cao Cao got Yanzhou, it was Chen Gong who came forward and asked the court to worship Cao Cao as the pastor of Yanzhou. Chen Gong is definitely a celebrity by Cao Cao's side. It is precisely because Chen Gong, who once trusted Cao Cao very much, later lobbied Zhang Miao to betray Cao Cao. Chen Gong said at that time, Zhang Miao was a little upset for a while, and he would agree to plan Cao Cao's Yanzhou with them, at that time Chen Gong said: "Lord Zhang, your Chen stay for thousands of miles, the soldiers are good and the food is sufficient, and you can compete with the heroes for the world, why do you have such good conditions, but you always be subservient?"
Zhang Miao wants to say that he has no ambition, it is fake, of course, it is more suspicious and afraid of Cao Cao. When Cao Cao was in Yanzhou, as long as he sent a general to arrest him, he had no strength to resist. However, at this time, Cao Cao was in charge of the troops, and he might not be able to break away from Cao Cao, and even welcome Lu Bu to Yanzhou as depicted by Chen Gong, and use Lu Bu's power to attack Cao Cao. Lu Bu and himself have a common enemy, Yuan Shao, and also hope to have a piece of their own territory. In the face of emotions and interests, Zhang Miao, who is also an adult, prefers to believe in interests, and the ghost sent God to agree to that matter.
"I'm not wrong, it's Cao Cao who is wrong, he's too ruthless, if I don't betray, I will definitely be killed by him in the end", Zhang Miao told himself in his heart, he was really scared, afraid, so he betrayed. At the same time, Bian Rang's crusade gave Zhang Miao some confidence. After Cao Cao came back this time, he didn't know what means he used to get rid of Bian Rang, and he also frightened Zhang Miao again, so Zhang Miao felt that he was not wrong to betray him.
When Cao Cao slaughtered the people in Xuzhou, everyone in the world knew about it, and of course Zhang Miao also knew, especially when he heard his good friend Bian Rang's criticism of Cao Cao, he actually felt quite happy, but not long ago, Cao Cao returned to Yanzhou, committed many injustices, and killed Jiujiang Taishou Bian Rang, Bian Rang This person is a well-known wise man in the world and a friend of Zhang Miao, who is honest and daring to speak, but he offended Cao Cao because of this. Cao Cao not only killed Bian Rang, but also Bian Rang's death, which made the entire world extremely angry, Zhang Miao's betrayal and Lu Bu's attack were regarded as just, so Zhang Miao was very happy, and Bian Rang died, Zhang Miao felt even more that this side of the road should go to the end, betraying Cao Cao, they had to be killed, although they were good brothers at the beginning. And Cao Cao's cruelty made Zhang Miao feel afraid, tens of thousands of people were slaughtered so easily, the affectionate and righteous Cao Cao was long gone, and now Cao Cao is just a murderous maniac, an officialdom traitor who is bent on pursuing power. How can Zhang Miao believe in Cao Cao's friendship with him, the boat of friendship has long been overturned, there is Yuan Shao's persecution outside, and Chen Gong's instigation inside, Zhang Miao finally chose to stab Cao Cao, Cao Cao died, and Zhang Miao could live.
"Meng De, I'm sorry, this time, either you die or I live, who makes us stand differently", Zhang Miao muttered, clenched his fists, not swaying, since he has already chosen, then go on, thinking of his chivalrous behavior when he was young, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are his good friends. The Han court recruited him as an official, and was later appointed as a cavalry lieutenant because of his outstanding political achievements, and was soon promoted to Chen Liutaishou. remembered that when Dong Zhuo was in rebellion, he and Cao Cao first raised a rebel army to crusade against Dong Zhuo. Remembering that the Kwantung Army of the princes at that time was afraid of Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao went out to fight alone, and only Zhang Miao sent his general Wei Zi to lead the army to follow Cao Cao. Due to the disparity in strength, Cao's army failed, Wei Zi was also killed in the battle, remembering the crusade against Dong Zhuo, the princes recommended Yuan Shao as the leader of the righteous army, Yuan Shao's face was quite proud and complacent, because of jealousy and righteous reproach, maybe from that time on, the friendship was no longer there, Zhang Miao shed a tear in his eyes.
Zhang Miao actually felt very sorry for Cao Cao, but there was no way, who let the cowardly, at that time, Yuan Shao was angry and asked Cao Cao to kill Zhang Miao. Cao Cao did not do this, but reproached Yuan Shao and said: "Meng Zhuo is a good friend of you and me, and he should be tolerated for good or bad." If it's undecided today, you shouldn't kill each other!" Zhang Miao thought that he would be a good friend for life, but there was a Yuan Shao between the two, and later Zhang Miao found that the relationship between his good friend Cao Cao and Yuan Shao was also very close, and with the help of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao got the status of Yanzhou Mu, which made Zhang Miao feel at ease, friendship is such a thing, adults have long disbelieved in it, everything is based on interests, Zhang Miao has been living in fear, this time Chen Gong's lobbying, the heart was moved, and the fear was enough, and the betrayal did not hesitate. With the suspicion of Dong Zhuo before, Zhang Miao was very worried, always afraid that Cao Cao would attack him for Yuan Shao's sake. This kind of thing is not superfluous, after all, politicians talk about interests, and in the face of interests, friendship is secondary. The problem is that as Zhang Miao, he should have a correct judgment about things and himself, and then make a correct response plan. At this time, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, the territories they grabbed did not overlap. In other words, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have not yet reached the time to meet each other directly, Zhang Miao has not yet become a weight for the exchange of interests at this time, and Cao Cao will not turn against Yuan Shao and this friend. At this time, Yuan Shao still had strong enemies such as Zhang Yang and Gongsun Zhan, and he did not have the ability to attack Zhang Miao, otherwise, he would not have pretended to be Cao Cao's hand. Zhang Miao's region is related to Cao Cao's interests, but at this time, Cao Cao has greater interests such as Xuzhou, and it is impossible to turn against his good friends for Yuan Shao's words. It's a pity that Zhang Miao doesn't have this mind, and he is too scared to see this general trend clearly. What's more serious is that Zhang Miao met a person with ill intentions, which made Zhang Miao make a wrong decision, and Chen Gong's inducement, all this has become what it is now. Chen Gong said to Zhang Miao: "Today's heroes are everywhere, the world is falling apart, you have such a vast land and many soldiers, occupying the Quartet must fight for the place, slashing the sword and looking around, you can also be called a hero among the people, but on the contrary, you are subject to others, isn't it too unproductive?" Today, the army in Yanzhou City is marching eastward, the city is empty, Lu Bu is a strong man, good at fighting, courageous, if he is temporarily ushered in, jointly govern Yanzhou, wait and see the changes in the situation in the world, and act with the camera, this is also a great opportunity to cross the seas. Zhang Miao listened to Chen Gong's words, and Chen Gong led the men and horses left by Cao Cao to welcome Lu Bu, who appointed himself as the assassin of Yanzhou and occupied Puyang.
This should be good, but before the momentum of the Ding Li has not yet formed, the world is still a chaotic situation, it can be said that there are many princes, and anyone who wants to achieve great things must not make too many enemies, but to make more friends with some allies, even if it is temporary. Although some people will become enemies in the future, the only way to distinguish between priority and priority is to identify one main enemy and proceed one by one. What's more, if you want to be self-reliant, you must first be self-reliant, otherwise, why don't you be controlled by others, Zhang Miao gave up the friends who had known each other for many years, and chose a person who didn't know the details.
What's even worse is that Zhang Miao didn't see the true face of Chen Gong clearly.
After Chen Gong talked with Lu Bu for a while, he left, and found that there was a sense of powerlessness, how could he communicate with a person who had no brains, and flickered Zhang Miao, did he finally plant it in Lu Bu's hands? There is only one thought in Lu Bu's mind, that is, to go back to the state, no matter how much he knocks on the side, it doesn't work, it's really scratching his scalp.
As for talking about the great cause of the world and pacifying the world, it is completely useless, Chen Gong feels that talking to Lu Bu is like running into a big stone, stubborn, and stubborn.
He said to himself: "No, I can't just follow Lu Bu back to Merge State, the name of Chen Gong has not been praised in this world, and I have not left a name in history, what should I do, is it really going to fall short." ”
Chen Gong remembered everything he had planned, and when he heard that Cao Cao was slaughtering the people in Xuzhou, Chen Gong knew that his opportunity had come, and decided to launch a fatal blow to Cao Cao, for which he made careful preparations, in addition to contacting all the non-Cao Cao descendants, he also did a lot of diplomatic work, Cao Cao's friend - Chen Liutaishou Zhang Miao was one of them. Chen Gong could have picked this head himself, and he also had such appeal. But Zhang Miao's military strength is not ordinary, he was once the temporary commander-in-chief of the anti-Dong alliance - the Suozao Front, and later the heroes competed, he took this opportunity to expand his strength and occupy the eastern part of Henan County, and it is understood that Chen Gong knew that Zhang Miao at this time already had "100,000 people", although this number is a bit exaggerated, but it also shows that Zhang Miao's power is considerable.
More importantly, Yuan Shao and Zhang Miao, both of whom are Cao Cao's strong backing and friends, but at present, these two are in the same situation, and Cao Cao has no choice but to work hard to reconcile and act as peacemakers. But as Yuan Shao and Cao Cao became more and more powerful, Zhang Miao was restless day by day, and Chen Gong saw this keenly and successfully rebelled against Zhang Miao. Zhang Miao is a chivalrous man, has no experience in leading troops, and has no ambition to become a hegemon, Chen Gong discussed with him, secretly brought Lu Bu from Hanoi, respected Lu Bu as the new state pastor of Yanzhou, and when the time came, he got Yanzhou, became famous in one fell swoop, and Lu Bu planned the world together, Chen Gong thought very well, but unfortunately he never expected that Lu Bu was not interested in the world, and thought about returning to the state all day long, which was very helpless, now there are no other forces in Yanzhou, Chen Gong can only rely on Lu Bu, but he is unwilling to withdraw from the stage of the Central Plains, Sigh and take one step at a time.
After Chen Gong left, Lu Bu ordered someone to clean up the table and return to the room.
Diao Chan saw Lu Bu coming in, took off his robe for him with a smile, looked at Lu Bu gently, and said: "Fengxian, Chen Gongtai is not a good person, you must keep an eye on him when you get along with him." ”
Lu Bu nodded, kissed Diao Chan, and said with a smile: "What he wants is the world, I want to return to Merge Zhou, it is estimated that after defeating Cao Cao and occupying Yanzhou, he will have to part ways." ”
Diao Chan nodded in agreement and asked worriedly: "Cao Cao's strength is also very strong, can we beat him?" ”
Lu Bu laughed and said: "Chan'er, with me, I will never fail, at least no matter what the situation, I can protect you, today, people who can step into the third realm, I believe that only I, Lu Bu, can keep me." ”
Diao Chan heard Lu Bu's words, although he was very straight and stunned, but he understood his intentions for himself, and said with a smile: "When there is enough food and grass, let's go back to Bingzhou, I will dance for you every day, you will beat the Hu people, and we will not ask about this matter in the Central Plains." ”
Anyway, he hugged Lu Bu, his face was full of tiredness, Diao Chan is not stupid, but he is not extremely smart, Lu Bu is not smart, in this vicious Central Plains, one was accidentally calculated to death, since leaving Chang'an, Diao Chan has long wanted to follow Lu Bu back to Bingzhou.
Lu Bu nodded softly and said, "The fathers and villagers in Bingzhou are all waiting for me, waiting for me to wait for the grain and grass, and go back to rescue them." ”
