Lin Chong turned his head sharply and covered his face with his hands. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Gao Yu is also very agile, with a flash of cold light, the dagger stabbed at him, and went straight to Lin Chong's lower abdomen!

Lin Chong's eyes were fascinated and he subconsciously dodged.

"Whoa......

The dagger was on Lin Chong's lower abdomen, cutting a bloody hole. Although it was not fatal, it also hurt Lin Chong and screamed.

"Die!"

Gao Yu struck a blow, brandished a dagger, and pounced again.

Lin Chong couldn't see, and hurriedly dodged and dodged. Gao Yu was unforgiving, and he chased after him, just wanting to take Lin Chong's life first, and then escape and escape.

"Annoying!"

Lin Chong couldn't see, and the wound was hot. But his feet were not slow at all, he flickered and moved, and dodged a few moves.

Lin Chong is the head of the West Park Army, and his kung fu is naturally extraordinary. Although the eyes cannot see, they can also perceive the position of Gao Yu with their hearing.

Gao Yu is also very cunning.

If you miss the combo, you will have an idea. No longer shouting and chasing, but tiptoeing, without making a sound, moving to Lin Chong's side, waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack.

Lin Chong knew that Gao Yu must have a trick, so he suddenly shook to the left and deliberately took half a step in Gao Yu's direction.

Gao Yu thought he had a plan, so he slammed out and stabbed straight through!

When Lin Chong heard the movement, he suddenly fell backwards to avoid the fatal blow!

The left elbow propped up the body, and the right hand held the gun in one hand, and stabbed out!

"Die!"

Gao Yu thought that he would succeed, but this blow used all his strength, and there was no room for dodging and evasion.

The spear suddenly came, Gao Yu screamed in pain, and the spear penetrated through his abdomen and came out through his back!

Lin ...... Rush, you ...... Good yin ......"

"Humph! Retribution! ”

Gao Yu, Lin Chong's gun died!

Two lifetimes of feuds, one shot to pay!

……

The sound of horses' hooves was hurried, and Liu Mang raised his head sharply.

"Report!"

Hurry up, the news is urgent, something big will happen!

Liu Mang glanced at the letter, his face solemn. With a wave of his hand, the guards immediately rushed to summon Liu Bowen and Du Ruhui.

When Liu and Du came in, Liu Mang's face had returned to its original state.

"Lao Cao did it."

"Puyang?"

"Yes."

Liu Mang's face was calm, and he stretched out his hand to signal the two of them to sit casually, and got up to boil the water himself.

Liu Bowen and Du Ruhui glanced at each other, tacitly: the lord is becoming more and more like the lord!

In the past, Liu Mang, whenever he had important events, he often couldn't hide his anxiety. Now, it's getting more and more calm.

The lord is as stable as a mountain, and his subordinates are as quiet as water.

Calm and calm is the premise for making the right decisions.

Liu and Du carefully read the newspaper and discussed in a low voice.

Liu Mang boiled the water, took out a bag of tea leaves, made tea, and served it to the two of them.

In this era, people have started drinking tea. However, whether it is the variety of tea, the variety, or the frying technique, it is very rough, and the taste of tea is far inferior to that of later generations. Tea culture has not yet taken shape.

Liu Bowen took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "In the past, I always felt that this thing tasted bitter and weird, but I got used to drinking it with my lord, and it felt good." ”

"This area is very suitable for growing tea, but unfortunately, there are no people who are proficient in the tea ceremony."

The status is high, and between Liu Mang's gestures, he can inadvertently reveal everyone's anger. And Liu Mang's posture of sipping tea is obviously more professional and elegant than Liu Bowen.

Du Ruhui imitated Liu Mang's posture, although his style was slightly insufficient, but he still had a good appearance.

Liu Bowen couldn't learn, so he smiled and said: "The style of the lord, Lao Liu can't learn." and drank it as coarse wine and plain water. ”

Liu Mang smiled. "Tell me what you think."

"The lord and Keming slowly taste the tea, I'll say first." Liu Bowen took a sip of the tea and picked up the tea leaves from his mouth.

"Can't let Lao Cao succeed!" Liu Bowen directly showed his opinion.

Liu Mang remained silent and continued to taste tea.

"Sun Bofu and Liu Xuande have made a start, and Lao Cao wants to follow suit!"

Liu Mang nodded lightly.

Lao Cao wants to recover Puyang and Chen Liu, and everyone knows it. In addition to the lack of preparation, the main reason for the delay was that Liu Mang was worried about Liu Mang's interference.

Now, Liu Bei and Sun Ce showed their intention to join forces to fight against Liu Mang, and Liu Mang did not make drastic moves, so Cao Cao made up his mind to use troops against Puyang.

Liu Mang asked: "Mr. Berwyn thinks that Cao Cao's attack on Puyang has the intention of testing our reaction?" ”

"There is a temptation, and there is also a seizure. The lord acquiesced to Sun and Liu's seizure of Lujiang, and if he did not make a clear statement on the matter of Puyang, Lao Cao might also take it by force. ”

Puyang and Chenliu are the places where Cao Cao raised his troops, and Cao Cao's feelings for these two places are not comparable to other places. Cao Cao wants to recover the two places, which is reasonable.

In this regard, Liu Mang and his staff have also been prepared.

The core point is: Cao Cao cannot be allowed to recover Puyang and Chen Liu.

Puyang and Chenliu are located in the Central Plains. It is bordered by Jizhou to the north, Yanzhou to the east, Yuzhou to the south, and Yin in Henan, where the capital Luoyang is located, to the west.

Lu Bu and Zhang Miao are all people with no great ambitions.

They occupied Puyang and Chenliu, and became a buffer between Liu Mang and Cao Cao.

Lu Bu and Zhang Miao occupied two places, and the threat to Liu Mang was relatively small. And if Cao Cao occupies both places, it will be a big trouble.

Not directly bordering each other is the basis for Liu Mang to maintain an alliance with Cao Cao. And the border, it is easy to produce all kinds of contradictions.

Now, Liu Mang's strength is not enough to be an enemy of the world, and Cao Cao is an important ally to contain Yuan Shao. At this stage, the alliance with Cao Cao must not be dissolved.

Cao Cao also knows this. And Cao Cao was sandwiched between Yuan Shao and Liu Bei, which was not comfortable, and he also needed Liu Mang, a powerful ally.

Cao Cao wanted to recapture Puyang and Chen Liu, but he was worried that he would befriend Liu Mang, and he also had a lot of scruples.

According to the analysis of Liu Bowen and Du Ruhui, Cao Cao's use of troops against Puyang had the intention of testing Liu Mang's attitude. If Liu Mang acquiesces, Cao Cao may really do it. If Liu Mang objected, Cao Cao could use this to make conditions. Putting forward conditions and asking for benefits is Cao Cao's specialty.

After Liu Bowen finished speaking, Liu Mang asked Du Ruhui's opinion.

"The subordinates think that when dealing with the Puyang matter, the lord should grasp three points: disagree, do not send troops, and do not worry."

Disagreement is inevitable.

It is understandable that the purpose of not sending troops is to avoid a military conflict with Cao Cao.

What does it mean to not be in a hurry?

As Mr. Berwyn said, Meng De's army was intended to test the lord. The lord is in a hurry, so Meng De has a plan. Even if it withdraws its troops, it may be used as an excuse to open the lion's mouth. ”

Cao Cao is suspicious, he is not in a hurry, but Cao Cao may be suspicious and dare not use force.

Liu Mang nodded slightly.

Don't agree, don't send troops, don't be in a hurry, these three things are easy for Liu Mang.

However, Liu Mang is worried about Lu Bu and Zhang Miao!

The two of them, can they resist Cao Cao?

"Don't worry, my lord. Lü and Zhang have occupied the two places for several years, and the two have always formed alliances with different surrounding princes, which shows that they are deeply versed in the way of survival of small princes, and the two may not have enough strength to fight against Cao Mengde, but they are worry-free about self-preservation. ”

Seeing that Liu Mang finally nodded, Du Ruhui said, "This is not in a hurry, there is another wonder." ”

"What's the point?"

Liu Mang asked, but without waiting for Du Ruhui to answer, Liu Mang suddenly smiled.

"I see!"
