Xiahou was sleeping sweetly, and the guards suddenly reported that Chen Gong was visiting.

chased to Pengcheng to ask for the Qingzhou army, but met Lu Bu who refused to return him, and Xiahoudun was very unhappy.

Lu Bu said that he would let the Qingzhou army go to the coal mine to dig coal, but of course Xiahoudun refused to believe it.

He stayed in Pengcheng just to see if Lu Bu would do that.

If the Qingzhou army were sent to dig coal, Lu Bu's previously accumulated prestige would likely plummet.

The warriors who have gone through the battlefield have extremely strong pride in their bones.

Asking them to do what they should be doing is definitely an extremely serious blow to morale.

After living in Pengcheng for several days, Xiahoudun did not wait for Lü Bu to give the order for the Qingzhou army to go to the coal mine.

He originally planned to ask Lu Bu in two days, but he didn't expect Chen Gong to come to visit late at night.

I often come to visit late at night, either because there is something important or there is some shady conspiracy.

Although Xiahoudun is a fierce general, he has also led troops for many years, and he is not a stupid person.

He sat up and instructed the guards: "Please ask Chen Gong to go to the side room for a while." ”

Getting up to wash, Xiahoudun came to the side room, and Chen Gong was already waiting in the room.

"It's already the second half of the night, and Chen Gong suddenly visited, is there something important to say?" Seeing the ceremony, Xiahoudun asked Chen Gong.

"To tell you the truth, I just came back from Wenhou." Chen Gong said: "Not only is there something important, but things are so important that they can't be delayed for a moment!" ”

Xiahoudun was at a loss.

He couldn't think of anything important, it was worth Chen Palace's late night visit.

"Cao Gong sent troops to Lujiang, I don't know if General Xiahou has heard of it?" Chen Gong asked mysteriously.

Being in Pengcheng, of course it will not be as convenient as Lu Bu to get the news, and Xiahou, who was completely unaware, was stunned: "The lord has used troops to Lujiang?" ”

"General Li Mancheng broke the Huainan army in Yijing, and beheaded the Huainan fierce general Li Mao." Chen Gong asked again: "Didn't anyone tell the general?" ”

"I'm in Pengcheng, of course the news will come later." Xiahou said with annoyance: "Wouldn't it embarrass me for Gong Chen to ask this? ”

"Xiahou Jiang Junjie, don't misunderstand, I don't mean to embarrass the general." Chen Gong smiled with him: "I came here to tell the general the news." ”

"And then?" Xiahoudun asked.

He expected that Chen Gong should remind him that he should return to Cao Cao's side and make meritorious contributions to Cao Cao's crusade against Lujiang.

But Chen Gong didn't say that.

"I'm just telling the general, there's nothing else to say." Chen Gong replied: "It's not early, don't dare to delay the general's rest!" ”

The news was sent, but Chen Gong didn't give any advice, and Xiahoudun suddenly felt as if something was missing.

He hurriedly asked: "Gongtai doesn't think I should return to the lord?" ”

"The general can't go back, just look at his heart." Chen Gong said: "I don't have any suggestions! ”

"I am also acquaintances with Gongtai, so I can't refuse to give a little advice?" Chen Gong's suggestion determined Xiahoudun's judgment on whether to go or stay, and he did not give up asking.

After a deep sigh, Chen Gong said: "I want to persuade the general to go back, but I am afraid that I will be misunderstood by the general, so it's better not to say it!" ”

He arched his hand again: "General Xiahou, please rest, I'll retire first!" ”

"Stay on the public platform!" Chen Gong withdrew from the room, and Xiahoudun chased him out: "Please also ask the public platform to make it clear, what is the difference between me staying and leaving?" ”

"The general stayed here just to watch Wen Hou send the Qingzhou army to the coal mine." Chen Gong said: "Once the Qingzhou army goes to the coal mine, the morale of the soldiers will be low. Not only Cao Gong can rest assured, but the general will also be relieved a lot. ”

was pierced by Chen Gong, and Xiahoudun suddenly felt embarrassed.

He smiled unnaturally: "Gongtai said that, but he really wronged me." ”

"It doesn't matter if I wronged the general or not, what matters is what the general can wait for here? What are the benefits in the end? Chen Gong lowered his voice: "It's not a secret, Wen Hou actually didn't plan to send the Qingzhou Army to the coal mine, the general waited here for ten years, and it was still like this." ”

Xiahou was stunned: "So I was deceived by Wen Hou?" ”

"Of course." Chen Gong said frankly: "How much energy Wen Hou has invested in the Qingzhou Army, the general must be able to see it. The officers and soldiers of the Qingzhou Army followed Wenhou, and those who had meritorious service were rewarded. In the first battle of Huainan, many soldiers from humble backgrounds are now army commanders, even chiefs and even hundred chiefs. With the generals, do they have a day to come out? If the general forcibly takes them away, will they be hated by the soldiers? ”

"What about holding a grudge? Could it be that they dare to rebel? Xiahoudun glared: "Who dares to have a whisper, I will kill him!" ”

He then bowed his hand to Chen Gong: "Thank you Gongtai for treating me sincerely, I will go to see Wen Hou early tomorrow morning and ask him to return the Qingzhou Army to me!" ”

Lu Bu didn't plan to let the Qingzhou army go to the coal mine, Xiahoudun found a reason to ask for it, of course he had to thank Chen Gong.

But Chen Gong smiled coldly: "If General Xiahou really does that, I'm afraid he will never be able to return to Cao Gong's side." ”

"Could it be that Lu Fengxian will harm me for the Qingzhou Army?" Xiahoudun frowned.

"How could Wen Hou harm the general?" Chen Gong said: "He sincerely serves Cao Gong, of course it is impossible to murder the people next to Cao Gong......"

"Then what else do I have to worry about?" Xiahoudun said: "In Pengcheng, except for him, I won't care about anyone!" ”

"The general is in Pengcheng, even if you do things again, Wen Hou will not do anything to you." Chen Gong said: "Not only will Wen Hou not do anything, but neither will Zilong, Wen Yuan and other generals. ”

"Then I'm more at ease!" Xiahoudun breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, the public station told me, otherwise I don't know how long I would have to wait." Tomorrow morning, I begged for the Qingzhou Army, and I immediately returned to the lord's side. ”

"The general is at his own disposal!" Chen Gong smiled slightly: "I will prepare a coffin for the general, and ask Wen Hou to organize a funeral for the general!" ”

Xiahoudun was stunned: "Gongtai just said ......"

"Wen Hou and the generals of Xuzhou will not do anything, but no one can guarantee whether the soldiers of the Qingzhou Army will do anything!" Chen Gong said: "The soldiers didn't even know why they were alive in the past, but now they finally found their goal, but they were broken by the general. Dare to ask the general, will they hold a grudge? ”

"Could it be that Lu Wenhou will not ask?" Xiahoudun frowned: "As long as he speaks......"

"The general is too naïve!" Chen Gong's smile became brighter and brighter: "Wen Hou didn't want to return the Qingzhou Army in the first place, he can not do anything to the generals, what do the soldiers want, will he stop it?" ”

"That's it, I don't want to say more, let's go first!" Chen Gong retired again, ignoring Xiahoudun, who was still stunned, and turned to leave.

Xiahoudun stood there at a loss, his mind was like a mess, and he didn't even understand the relationship for a while.
