Chapter 650: Finalizing the Candidates
After Wang Can and Jia Xu and others discussed the plan, they immediately asked the soldiers to convene the generals in the army to discuss the matter.
The purpose of convening the generals was to select the candidates to send envoys to Cao Ying.
Except for Zhao Yun and Xu Rong who led the broken military camp to leave, the rest of the generals were in Chang'an City and did not leave. Therefore, after Wang Can's order was delivered, all the generals hurried to the hall.
Wang Yue wanted to report the news to Wang Can, and lived directly in the mansion, so he arrived first.
Soon after, Huang Zhong, Pei Yuanshao, Zhou Cang, and Gao Shun also arrived one after another. Not only did Huang Zhong and others come to the hall, but even Lu Meng, Huang Xu and Dian Man also came, and finally even Dian Wei came to join in the fun.
After everyone arrived, Wang Can glanced around at everyone and said, "I just got the latest news, after Zhao Yun and Xu Rong led the broken military camp to catch up with Liu Xie, Cao Cao led the troops to kill and rescue Liu Xie. Now that Liu Xie is staying in Cao Cao's camp, it is not good news for us, so we need someone to send an envoy to Cao Ying, which of you is willing to send an envoy? β
As for what exactly to do, Wang Can did not explain.
"My lord, the last general is willing to be an envoy!"
As soon as Wang Can finished speaking, the generals in the hall clenched their fists and asked to be envoys. Huang Zhong, LΓΌ Meng, Pei Yuanshao, and Zhou Cang all stood up, but Gao Shun, Wang Yue, and Dian Wei did not.
Dian Wei protected Wang Can's safety, and it was impossible for him to leave Chang'an for a mission, so he didn't stand up.
As for Wang Yue, he is responsible for all the intelligence under Wang Can's command, and he handles a lot of news every day, not only to deal with the news from Chengdu, but also to deal with the surrounding news, so he has no time to leave at all.
Commander Gao Shun was trapped in the camp and was an indispensable general, and he did not stand up.
Wang Can's eyes swept over Huang Zhong, Pei Yuanshao and the other four one by one, and asked, "You all ask to go to Cao Ying to bring back Liu Xie, and tell me why you are asking for an envoy!" β
Pei Yuanshao didn't wait for the others to speak, stood up and said, "Lord, we sent Cao Ying to envoy Cao Ying, we can't tell Cao Cao to let him hand over Liu Xie, right?" If so, you won't let people go. You must have a reason to let Cao Cao hand over the little emperor, otherwise you wouldn't have let us send an envoy, wouldn't you? Rest assured, after you arrange the task, the end will be completed beautifully. β
Wang Can nodded, a smile on his face.
This black-faced man looks rough, but he is also thick and fine!
Pei Yuanshao stood back with a smile, and then Huang Zhong stood up again, clasped his fists and said: "Lord, as an envoy, you must not only be able to complete the lord's entrustment, but also be able to face the enemy's changes and flexibly formulate strategies, otherwise it will be difficult to complete the lord's task. β
After Huang Zhong finished speaking, he smiled at Pei Yuanshao.
This look, after being seen by Pei Yuanshao, hated in his heart, obviously he thought it was Huang Zhong's provocative eyes.
Wang Can nodded again and smiled slightly.
Huang Zhong saw the approving expression on Wang Can's face, and he was overjoyed, feeling that he was very sure of the envoy. He stepped back, looked at Pei Yuanshao again, the two looked at each other, snorted, and turned their heads away.
Zhou Cang was also quite cunning, and said: "Lord, the last general's ability is limited, and it is difficult to take on the heavy responsibility of the main envoy, I am willing to serve as the deputy envoy to Cao Ying to assist the main envoy to complete the task, please allow the lord!" β
When Wang Can heard this, he immediately felt interesting.
Zhou Cang was really ingenious, and he actually thought of a way to retreat.
At this time, three of the four people who stood up had already expressed their thoughts, among which Huang Zhong and Pei Yuanshao wanted to send envoys as envoys to complete the task for Wang Can, and Zhou Cang was willing to serve as a deputy envoy, which was also quite cunning. Of the four people, only Lu Meng is left, and among the four people, Lu Meng has the lowest qualifications, not as good as the other three.
Wang Can looked at Lu Meng and motioned for Lu Meng to speak.
Lu Meng took a deep breath, clenched his fists and said: "Lord, the last general will not talk about the envoys, and I have some doubts in my heart and want to ask the three generals, I don't know if it is possible?" β
Huang Zhong, Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang raised their eyebrows when they heard this.
If you have any doubts, you can solve them privately, and you don't have to take them to the hall to talk about it.
Guo Jia, Jia Xu, and Li Ru looked at Lu Meng with an intriguing smile on their faces. Guo Jia and Lu Meng have been together for a long time, and knowing that this guy is a ghost elf, he must be ready to make a move.
Jia Xu and Li Ru are also smiling, the two have been following Wang Can for two years, and the contact time with Lu Meng is not short, both sides have a certain understanding, the more Lu Meng is not in a hurry, the more sure he is in his heart. At this time, both of them looked at Lu Meng curiously, seeing how Lu Meng reacted.
Wang Can glanced at Huang Zhong and the others and said, "Okay, you ask!" β
"Thank you, my lord!"
Lu Meng clasped his fists and saluted Wang Can, then looked at Huang Zhong, and said: "General Huang's martial arts are unparalleled, his sword skills are exquisite, and he cut off one of Xiahoudun's arms, if General Huang sends Cao Ying, what will Cao Cao's reaction be after seeing General Huang?" Will he be angry and detain General Huang, or will he directly kill General Huang to take revenge? β
After Huang Zhong heard this, he chuckled in his heart.
Lu Meng looked calm and confident, and said to himself: "This article alone is enough to remove General Huang, and he cannot serve as an envoy to Cao Ying." β
Huang Zhong wanted to refute, but he couldn't find a reason to refute.
Lu Meng grinned, looked at Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang again, and said, "General Zhou and General Pei followed the lord to fight in the east and west, and their reputation is outside. In the past, the lord and the princes allied and raised troops to fight against Dong Zhuo, General Pei repeatedly traveled the road, which was already known to Cao Cao, and General Zhou, as an old courtier under the lord's command, Cao Cao must have heard of it. β
"If the two generals are sent to Cao Ying, it is really unwise to steal it!"
"Why? Because after the two generals arrived, once Cao Cao played a scoundrel and detained the two generals in Cao Ying, what should the two generals do? What should the lord do when he learns the news? Could it be that the lord could not care about the lives of the two generals and kill Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ren? β
The corners of Lu Meng's mouth hooked up a smile, and he said loudly: "Therefore, the three generals are not suitable to serve as envoys to Cao Ying. β
In the rear, Dian Man and Huang Xu saw that Lu Meng was chic and calm, and they were extremely impressed.
Although Huang Xu is Huang Zhong's son, father and son belong to father and son, they belong to different camps, Huang Xu, as Lu Meng's subordinate, is naturally happy for Lu Meng's arrival.
When Wang Can, Guo Jia and others heard this, smiles appeared on their faces.
When Zhou Cang heard this, he retorted: "Little General, if Cao Cao detains me, I will immediately bite my tongue and kill myself, in order to repay the favor of the lord and never let Cao Cao threaten the lord." β
Pei Yuanshao also nodded solemnly and said, "Me too!" β
Lu Meng laughed and said: "Two generals, you are messing around, the teacher values the two generals very much, and he doesn't want to see the two generals injured or killed by Cao Cao." Therefore, it is still up to me to serve as an envoy to Cao Ying, I am an unknown boy, Cao Cao knows that it is useless to detain me, there is no problem of threatening the lord, please agree! β
After Lu Meng finished speaking, Huang Zhong, Pei Yuanshao, and Zhou Cang sighed at the same time.
Wang Can was extremely relieved, and a smile appeared on his face.
Up to now, Lu Meng has gradually shown his talent.
Although Wang Can did not have much time to teach LΓΌ Meng, LΓΌ Meng's martial arts could be learned from Zhao Yun, Wang Yue, Dian Wei, Huang Zhong and others, and the art of war could be taught by Guo Jia, Xun You, Jia Xu and others. With the help of such a terrifying lineup, Lu Meng was enough to make Lu Meng burst out with dazzling light.
