Chapter 678: Kaifu Yi and the Three Divisions

readx;

Guan Yu looked a little tired. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Compared with the high-spirited appearance before, it is like two people. At this moment, he was sitting on the city wall, and he could directly see the movement of the Cao army under the gallop.

A military doctor pulled out a broken spear from his leg for him.

Cao Peng's blow pierced his thigh. Although Guan Yu had cut off most of it, there were still nearly three feet of broken spear left in his body. The medic carefully pulled it out, blood splattering down the wound. And Guan Yu's face like a heavy jujube is as white as paper at the moment. But he still looked at ease, as if he didn't feel any pain at all. Only the little colonel who was supporting him could feel how hard Guan Yu's big hand was holding his arm, as if it was about to crush his arm......

"Junhou, it's alright!"

The military doctor pulled out the broken spear, stopped the bleeding for Guan Yu, and bandaged it properly.

Guan Yu nodded, and suddenly said, "Help me up." ”

As he spoke, he saw a young man appear at the end of the road, and with the support of others, he came slowly.

Guan Yu's pro-army immediately showed a look of vigilance. Because they could all recognize that the person who came was the famous Cao Dudu.

"Second general, Punte is here to pay a visit."

Cao Peng's voice was hoarse, with a little weakness.

Guan Yu said in a loud voice: "Please." ”

He straightened up, trying not to show weakness.

And Cao Peng, with the support of Dian Man and Xu Yi, slowly walked on the gallop road.

"Cao Peng, do you have to come to persuade him to surrender?"

Cao Peng smiled, "No, really send the second general on the road." ”

Guan Yu Danfeng's eyes narrowed, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. But then, he smiled again, "Governor, you are indeed a smart man.

If you dare to persuade Guan to surrender, Guan will immediately drive you out of the city. ”

"The two generals are loyal and righteous, and everyone in the world knows it.

The battle of Jiangxia is not a crime of war, and it is the trend of the times. Under such circumstances, the general still did everything to return to Changsha to join Liu Bei, and he was indeed a loyal and righteous person. Maybe a thousand years later, the world should remember the name of the general, as a model for the heroes of the world, and how can someone persuade him to surrender? ”

To be honest, Guan Yu in this life is far less famous than Guan Yu in history.

He didn't behead Yan Liang and Zhu Wenug, nor did he ride alone for thousands of miles, passing five levels and killing six generals...... However, this did not stop Cao Peng's respect for Guan Yu. When he is an opponent, Cao Peng will do whatever it takes to deal with Guan Yu. Now that the war is over, there is no need to resort to means. Cao Peng and Guan Yu, one on the top of the gallop and the other at the end of the gallop, looked at each other silently for a long time, and neither of them spoke.

After a while, Cao Peng suddenly waved his hand, "Second general, let's go." ”

"Little thief, in the next life, I will take your head."

Cao Peng smiled, "In this life, Peng is not a general's opponent. ”

"Take care, thief."

A smile flashed on Guan Yu's face, and he said goodbye to Cao Peng.

The second master rarely smiled, giving people a sense of majesty. But laughing at this time, Cao Peng felt that Guan Yu still had a humane side.

After all, Guan Erye, who was handed down in later generations, was too heavy in divinity.

The second master is actually just an ordinary person, some people's joys, sorrows, and sorrows, and some people's seven emotions and six desires.

In his previous life, when he was young, Cao Peng admired the second master very much; However, when I grew up, I saw all kinds of comments about the second master. For example, he is lustful, for example, he is hypocritical. But in fact, which hero is not lustful? That's just human instinct...... The reason why people are disgusted is only because they used to think too much of him. When a person walks down from the altar, he is always blamed by others......

Cao Peng left with the support of Dian Man and Xu Yi.

Guan Yu held a long knife in his hand and watched Cao Peng's back walk away......

A moment later, only the rumbling of war drums under the city was heard. Xu Chu gave the order to attack the city! Originally, he still wanted to capture Guan Yu alive, but after Cao Peng's persuasion, Xu Chu changed his mind. This is a loyal and righteous man, and it is absolutely impossible to surrender, let alone be captured alive. Rather than let him live in humiliation, it is better to let him die heroically, so as to live up to the name of the second master and the martial saint of the later generations.

Cao's army launched an attack on the head of Dongguan City.

But Cao Peng ignored it completely, and with the support of Dian Man and Xu Yi, he walked in the direction of Dongguan Bridge......

Behind him, the shouts of killing shook the sky.

From time to time, terrible screams came into my ears.

It's just that the shouting and killing didn't last long, and when Cao Peng walked on the Dongguan Bridge, the shouting and killing suddenly stopped. Cao Peng's body trembled and stopped suddenly. But he didn't look back, but stood on the Dongguan Bridge in a daze, looking up at the sky, and was silent for a long time.

"Second brother!"

"Huh?"

"Send me back to Hanshou."

"Huh?"

"The battle of Xiajun has ended, and the overall situation of the battle of Jiangxia has been decided.

Liu Bei is no longer able to fight back, Jiangdong Sun Quan, presumably he should also make a decision, Tai Shici and them, it is almost time to retreat......

There is no suspense about the war in Jingnan.

I want to go back to Hanshou to recuperate, stay for a while, and return to Xudu. ”

"Back to Xudu?"

Dian Man and Xu Yi couldn't understand Cao Peng's mood at this time.

Cao Peng smiled and said, "I'm tired!" ”

Since he took charge of Nanyang County, it has been more than two years. In the past two years, Cao Peng has worked hard, and he has never calmed down for a day.

Compared with the original time in Hexi County, this expedition to Jingchu almost exhausted all his mind.

Yes, he's so tired!

In the past two years, he has had brilliant achievements and lost countless parts.

During the Battle of Nanyang, Fu Wei and others were killed in battle; And in this battle of Xiajun, he lost three subordinates, Kou Feng, Luo Meng, and Liu Cong. Although the three of them have not followed Cao Peng for too long, they are still a little unacceptable emotionally. He didn't know what he would lose in the next battle. But he couldn't bear the pain anymore, so it was better to give up than this.

Besides, Xun Yu once said to him: Seven points are enough to do everything.

In the battle of Jingchu, Cao Peng has done enough...... If you try to take credit again, I am afraid that sooner or later you will be in danger of being crowned with merit.

Cao Cao favored him, but it didn't mean that he would always tolerate him.

When Cao Cao couldn't stand Cao Peng's exploits, he was afraid that it would be the day when the two turned against each other.

Cao Peng, I really don't want to turn against Cao Cao. Rather than that, it's better to leave early. As for the battle of Jingnan, Cao Cao was in charge.

After all, since Cao Cao's conquest of Jingchu, he has almost no outstanding place except for a small display of his strength in Jiangxia.

The Battle of Jingnan will be the time when Cao Cao proclaims his bravery to the astonishing people. Cao Peng will definitely not grab this kind of limelight, otherwise there will be disaster.

Dian Man and Xu Yi glanced at each other, and finally agreed to Cao Peng's request.

In March of the thirteenth year of Jian'an, the Battle of Jiangxia ended.

From the beginning of the war to the end of the war, it took only one month. In this battle, Cao Cao took all the fifteen counties of Jiangxia, and his troops approached Jingnan.

And Jiangdong Sun Quan couldn't help but be shocked by Cao's combat power.

Cao's army did not use troops to Jiangdong, which made it difficult for Sun Quan's water army to take advantage of it.

In this case, Sun Quan ordered Zhou Yu to be the governor of the capital, to lead the Jiangdong naval army, and to sit in Chaisang. At the same time, Sun Quan ordered to gather troops and horses to Peng Ze to prevent Cao's army from sneaking up. After making military arrangements, Sun Quan began to use diplomatic means. After Xiling County was broken, Sun Quan immediately ordered Zhang Hong as an envoy and led a delegation across the river to visit Jingzhou. Previously, Cao Cao had always taken the initiative to seek diplomatic peace talks, and Sun Quan had always been lukewarm. But with the end of the Jiangxia War, Sun Quan had to change his attitude.

On this mission, Sun Quan took the initiative to put forward the idea of marrying as soon as possible, and was willing to send Sun Shao to Xudu.

But he didn't expect that as soon as he sent a mission on the front foot, he got the news on the back foot: Sun Shao's mother and son left the Fuchun ancestral house and their whereabouts are unknown.

When Sun Quan heard this, he was shocked.

He hurriedly sent someone to Fuchun to investigate. At the same time, he ordered someone to chase after the mission, and changed the object of the courtship to Sun Shao to Sun Lang. Sun Lang, the youngest son of Sun Quan, is a good morning, born to Wu Guotai, and is double ten years old. Sun Shao is missing, so naturally someone needs to replace him. Otherwise, if the marriage is said to be completed, the groom official will not see anyone, which will inevitably make Cao Cao dissatisfied. At least for now, Sun Quan did not have the courage to provoke Cao Cao.

Sun Lang is older than Sun Shao, but he seems to be more suitable than Sun Shao.

After all, Cao Cao and Sun Jian are the same generation, and Sun Shao and Cao Cao's daughters are obviously a generation apart. Sun Lang is a nephew, and with Cao Cao's daughter, there seems to be nothing inappropriate. Anyway, it is a political marriage, whether it is Sun Shao or Sun Lang, there is not much difference between Sun Quan and Cao Cao. The question is, where did this Sun Shao's mother and son go? Where is it now?

In Sun Quan's heart, he couldn't help but be a little more wary of Zhou Yu.

In his opinion, the person most likely to help Sun Shao in the entire Jiangdong is Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu is now the governor of the navy, in charge of the Jiangdong navy, and his power is amazing...... And Zhou Yu and Sun Ce are close friends, and they are brothers-in-law. In this case, Zhou Yu's help to Sun Shao seems to be in common sense. Sun Quan was secretly frightened, he was worried that behind Sun Shao's escape, there were more insiders hidden. Because of this, Sun Quan began to become suspicious, and his temper became more tyrannical.

March of the thirteenth year of Jian'an is a beautiful season.

However, in this month, Liu Qi died in battle, Jiangxia was broken, and Guan Yu committed suicide in Xiajun.

Under Cao Peng's persuasion, Xu Chu did not cut off Guan Yu's head, but ordered someone to send the bodies of Guan Yu's father and son to Linxiang Liu Bei.

When Liu Bei learned the news of Guan Yu's death, he cried bitterly.

If it weren't for Ma Liang and others desperately blocking it, I was afraid that Liu Bei would immediately gather troops and horses to conquer Xiajun.

But even so, although Liu Bei did not send troops, he also wore filial piety in the whole army. Together with Zhang Fei, he greeted the coffin of Guan Yu's father and son on the bank of the Boluo River.

In April of the thirteenth year of Jian'an, Guan Yu and his son were buried on the bank of the Xiangjiang River.

In the same month, Cao Cao sent a eulogy to pay tribute to Guan Yu, and ordered a truce, ordering Xun Yu to lead his troops back to Yuannan and not to continue the attack on Yiyang.

With the end of the war, Jingnan ushered in a brief period of peace.

Zhuge Liang hurriedly returned to Changsha County from Jiangdong to discuss countermeasures with Liu Bei.

On this trip to Jiangdong, Zhuge Liang basically failed! Although Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Zhuge Jin and others agreed to join Liu to resist Cao, due to Cao Cao's restraint, Jiangdong did not have a unified opinion. However, Sun Quan said that he was willing to support Liu Bei and fight against Cao Cao.

He also proposed that he would order someone to contain Jiangxia's soldiers and horses, and give Liu Bei heavy grain and grass to recruit troops and horses.

Liu Bei was very helpless, but he also had to face such a result. At the same time, news also came from Xichuan that Bajun Taishou Yan Yan withdrew his troops, and Liu Zhang was willing to fund Liu Bei, and promised to fight against Cao Cao with Liu Bei with 3,000 soldiers and horses. According to the news from Hosaku, Nishikawa's situation is a little bad now. Prices are soaring, and although supplies are abundant, there is a clear shortage compared to the previous ones.

Especially in the southern Sichuan region, the southern barbarians are ready to move.

And Zhang Lu is in Hanzhong, and he is also eyeing Yizhou......

This kind of situation can be described as internal and external troubles. Liu Zhang's ability to fund Liu Bei's 3,000 soldiers and horses is interesting enough...... After all, he had too many internal problems to solve, and he didn't dare to anger Cao Cao, so he naturally restrained himself. Liu Bei was very disappointed, but he still sent Ma Liang to Xichuan and went to Chengdu to thank him. Liu Zhang said: If Jingnan is unlivable, I would like to ask Liu Bei to go to Xichuan to at least give him a place to stay.

Liu Bei, thank you!

In April of the thirteenth year of Jian'an, Cao Peng led his troops and returned to Hanshou.

In the first battle, Cao Peng suffered heavy losses. Kou Feng and the three of them died in battle, not to mention, when the three thousand soldiers returned to Hanshou, they were only in their early 1,000s.

And Cao Peng's carefully built Yan Shi also killed and injured dozens of people.

This loss is especially better than 2,000 soldiers and horses, which makes Cao Peng feel a pity.

The harvest was that he captured Ma Yan.

Cao Peng didn't have much affection for Ma Tan. In history, the arrogance of the Battle of Jieting made Zhuge Liang kill with tears...... A self-proclaimed smart guy, a Zhao Kuo-style character. But Fa Zheng thought that Ma Jian was a well-read soldier and proficient in strategy. In the battle of Xiajun, even Fa Zheng did not discover the mystery of the top of the wind city, but he was noticed by Ma Yan. This person, at least can be an excellent staff member, pick up the gaps, and can also be called a helper. Whether you can use Ma Jian well depends on Cao Peng's own skills!

Cao Peng felt that what Fa Zheng said was also reasonable.

In fact, in addition to the Battle of the Street Pavilion in history, Ma Jian did not do too badly.

The defeat in the Battle of Jieting is certainly due to Ma Tan's self-inflicted cleverness, but Zhuge Liang does not know people and uses people improperly, so he cannot but be held accountable. When Liu Bei was dying, he once said to Zhuge Liang that Ma Yan's words were exaggerated and should not be used. Facts have also proved that Liu Bei's vision of people is hundreds of times stronger than Zhuge Liang. It's just that Zhuge Liang's excessive trust in Ma Jian in the later period made Ma Jian bear the infamy of the ages.

There is no virtuous man who can't be used, only the lord who can't use people!

Cao Peng thought about it for a while, and decided to find an opportunity to persuade Ma Jian to surrender......

However, it is imperative that he return to Hanshou first. The injuries on his body have improved, and there is no longer too much of a problem. But Xu Chu was not very relieved, so he let the two of them lead the Tiger Guards to escort Cao Peng, which can be regarded as Xu Chu's thoughts.

Originally, to return to Hanshou, it was necessary to pass through the area where Jiangdong soldiers and horses were stationed.

However, due to the Dongting Water Battle, the Jiangdong Navy suffered heavy losses, which also enabled Du Ji's ships to run rampant in Dongting Lake and enter the Boluo River.

Now, the big picture has been decided.

Tai Shici also knew that it didn't make much sense to embarrass Cao Peng again.

Rather than this, it is better to send a favor...... Therefore, Tai Shici ordered Xu Sheng to collect the ships of the Jiangdong Navy and not to obstruct the passage of Cao's army. In this way, Du Yi led the navy to successfully receive Cao Peng, and then returned to Dongting along the Boluo River and arrived at Hanshou City.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Jiangxia, Xiling County.

Guo Jia was in a hurry, and directly broke into the big tent of the Chinese army.

After Cao Cao occupied Xiling, he did not enter Xiling, but camped outside the city. Subsequently, he appointed Pang Shanmin as the Taishou of Jiangxia, which further stabilized the hearts of Jingxiang people. Pang Shanmin is now in Wuling County, assisting Cao Peng in his work. Therefore, although the order was issued, it could not be taken immediately. Cao Cao decided to temporarily station in Xiling, saying that it was to stabilize the situation in Jiangxia, but in fact, it was more to deter Jiangdong.

When Guo Jia entered the big tent, Cao Cao was discussing things with Dong Zhao and others.

According to the current situation, the pacification of Jingchu Land is just around the corner. However, in the Battle of Jiangxia, the performance of the Jingzhou naval army, that is, Cai Mao, made Cao Cao extremely dissatisfied. It was precisely because of Cai Mao's delay that Xia Jun encountered a tragic battle. If it weren't for Zhang He's plan, Xu Chu and Xu Huang would arrive in Xiajun in time, maybe Cao Peng would have died in Dongguan Bridge, and Guan Yu would have broken through and joined Liu Bei.

There are various indications that Cai Mao is not a suitable candidate for the water army.

As the land of Jingchu gradually stabilized, Cao Cao made up his mind to take this opportunity to depose Cai Mao.

However, who will replace Cai Mao in charge of the water army? It is always a difficult issue to decide......

Du Yi performed well, and Xun Yu also praised him in his letters. And he is from Cao Peng's disciple, so there is no need to worry about loyalty.

The problem is that Du Ji has good ability and is still not qualified.

He can command 20,000 sailors to gain a firm foothold in Dongting Lake, and to put it bluntly, Cao Peng is behind him.

A person who doesn't have too many military exploits and mediocre qualifications suddenly takes over the helm of the naval army? Even if Cao Peng agrees, I'm afraid he won't be able to convince the public.

After all, there are too many people under Cao Cao who are qualified enough.

Just when Cao Cao and everyone were arguing, Guo Jia ran in.

After hearing the question of Cao Cao and others, Guo Jia smiled, "What should I do, it turns out that it is just this question...... In Jia's heart, there is a candidate. This person is a county guard, with outstanding military achievements and quite prestige. And he was born on the water and is proficient in water warfare. It's just that over the years, he has been mostly on land, so no one notices. If this person is the governor of the navy, he is indeed the most suitable candidate. ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he was stunned!

Why do I have such people under my command and I don't know about them?

"Who is Feng Xiao talking about?"

"It's Hefei Taishou, Ganning Ganxingba."

"Gan Ning?"

Of course Cao Cao knew who Gan Ning was!

Back then, it was he who asked Gan Ning out of Cao Peng's hands, and in the blink of an eye, in the blink of an eye, Gan Ning fought in the south and in the north, and indeed established a lot of meritorious deeds.

Because Gan Ning was born under Cao Peng, he was very supported by Cao Peng.

Therefore, his prestige in the army is not weak, not to mention Cao Ren and Cao Hong, or Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan, they have a very close relationship with him. Yu Ban Zangba, who has cooperated with Gan Ning very well in recent years. In the three years in Hefei, dozens of large and small battles between Ganning and Jiangdong have been carried out, with more victories and fewer losses.

Guo Jia said with a smile: "Xingba was in Ba County in his early years, and he had a good reputation for Jinfan.

In the mouth of the water, he and Zhou Cang cooperated tacitly and defeated the Jiangdong Navy several times, and he had rich experience. If this person takes over the water army, even if he is from Jingzhou, he will agree. ”

"You said that Xingba has outstanding abilities and is suitable for commanding the navy, I have no opinion.

However, the Jingzhou Navy was led by Cai Mao, and Cai Mao was removed from his position, how could the Jingzhou clan agree? I don't think it's reliable. ”

Dong Zhao immediately retorted, as if he was a little disapproving.

Guo Jia said with a smile: "Gan Ning's ancestral home is Jingzhou, and he can be regarded as half of Jingzhou.

The most important thing is that he was once a disciple of Youxue, and he was very respected by Youxue. Back then, it was Mr. Huang who sent Xingba to Youxue, and Mr. Huang was a famous man in Jingzhou. Its prestige is far better than that of Kuai Yue Kuailiang, and it is almost as famous as Pang Degong, and it is a leading figure among Jingxiang celebrities. Moreover, Mr. Huang is also from a famous family, and the status of the Jiangxia Huang family is far better than that of the Xiangyang Cai family. As long as Mr. Huang is willing to come forward, the Jingzhou scholars will have nothing to say. I heard that the old gentleman is now lecturing in Xingyang Fuxi Mountain! The prime minister can order to treat the Huang clan people in Jiangxia well and order people to repair the ancestral shrine of the Huang family. When the time comes, please invite the old gentleman to return to his hometown to worship his ancestors, and it will be done. ”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but nod their heads again and again to express their appreciation.

Cao Cao pointed at Guo Jia and said with a smile: "It's still Feng Xiao and shrewd, and he thought of such an idea at once, and he really lived up to the name of a ghost." ”

Dong Zhao may still be a little unconvinced, but it is not easy to refute it.

After all, Guo Jia's idea is the most suitable for now. Moreover, Cao Peng is also involved in this...... Dong Zhao didn't want to turn against Cao Peng because of this incident. He has a good relationship with the Cao family, not to mention, there are shares of Cao Pengfu Paper Building at home.

If you annoy Cao Peng, the gains outweigh the losses.

At that moment, Dong Zhao also nodded and said, "Gan Xingba, he is indeed the right person." ”

"Since this is the case, then there is Gongren to arrange this.

The matter of the Jingzhou Navy cannot be delayed any longer, and it must be resolved in six months at most. As for Huang Gong's side, I will send someone to say Xiang, presumably it is not a big problem.

Alright, let's disperse for today.

The princes arranged that Zhang Hong led the delegation to arrive in two days, and there must be some verbal arguments, and everyone needs to do their best. ”

"We will do our best."

Dong Zhao and others withdrew from the Chinese army's big tent, but Guo Jia did not leave.

Cao Cao asked, "Fengxiao, is there something wrong?" ”

"Both the text and the letter have changed."

"Huh?"

Cao Cao was taken aback and hurriedly motioned for Guo Jia to present the letter.

After Cao Cao entered Xudu, he made Jia Xu sit in Xudu and supervise affairs.

Xun Yu rushed from Xudu to Jingzhou at the invitation of Cao Peng, so Jia Xu was in charge of Xudu's affairs.

Guo Jia handed over the letter, then stood aside without saying a word. Cao Cao took it seriously, and after reading the letter, a trace of coldness appeared on his face.

"Really?"

"It shouldn't be bad...... Wenhe has always been cautious in doing things. Ah Fu also said that this person has no last resort, and there will be no mistakes in the future.

Moreover, I have also heard that Fu Wan and Linyi Hou have been a little active recently, and their actions are quite frequent.

If you don't pay attention, you are afraid that sooner or later it will lead to a catastrophe. The battle of Jingzhou could not end for a while, and the prime minister still needed to make a decision as soon as possible to avoid future troubles. ”

"The meaning of filial piety ......"

"If Wen Ruo is not in Xudu now, he can do it."

"You know, that's not what I meant. I'm just thinking, who should come forward? ”

Guo Jia showed hesitation and bowed his head and groaned.

After a while, he resolutely raised his head and said in a deep voice: "This matter, please ask Captain Tingwei to come forward and take full responsibility."

It's just that you need a strong person to deter the situation. Jia thought that this person was none other than Ah Fu...... I've heard that he's been injured in Xiajun, and it's just in time for him to return to recuperate. Speaking of which, he has been able to manage it enough in the past two years, so that he can go back and reunite with his family. ”

Cao Cao was silent!

"Do you really want Ah Fu?"

"He has to be."

"Where is he?"

"It is said that it has returned to Hanshou."

"Let me think about this matter again......" Cao Cao seemed a little hesitant, and said softly after a while: "Let's greet the Jiangdong delegation first, and then make a decision." ”

"Whoa!"

"Ah Fu, you'd better send someone to go.

In the next battle, he suffered heavy losses. I heard that three of the four guards around him were killed in battle...... I guess he won't be in a good mood either. The kid is an emotional person, and although he is strong on weekdays, he is indeed an emotional person. Three people died in the battle, and they need to be properly arranged, and their families must be well resettled, so as not to chill the hearts of the soldiers. I just got some good wine a few days ago, took thirty jars, and sent it to Hanshou.

Pass my order, add friends to the general, and open the house with the three divisions. ”

Guo Jia was stunned, and immediately understood Cao Cao's thoughts.

To some extent, Cao Cao had agreed to his suggestion......

The generals of the Eastern Han Dynasty have the titles of Great General, Hussar General, Che Cavalry General, Wei General and Front, Rear, Left and Right Generals. Among them, the general is above the three dukes, the hussar generals, the chariot cavalry generals and the wei generals are below the three dukes and above the nine qing; The generals on the left and right sides are under Jiuqing. Originally, this general position was not very governed, but since the middle of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Queen Mother has been in the dynasty to call the system, and most of the relatives are fighting with the generals, and the three princes of Taifu are called the five mansions. Since then, generals can open a government and set up a special staff.

Cao Peng's original General Yokono was a miscellaneous general.

Set in wartime, cancel if there is no war.

Although Cao Peng has always had a shogunate, it has not been formally established after all.

And now, Cao Cao added Cao Penghou as a general, and ordered him to open the palace with the three divisions, which is equivalent to Cao Peng's staff, and there is a formal establishment.

According to the rules, the general opened the mansion, and the government had one Changshi and Sima, two Zhonglang, 29 Peng, and 31 Lingshi. Moreover, the general leads the army with this number, and there are standing troops and captains. Cao Cao opened the Prime Minister's Mansion by himself, and no one has yet obtained the power to open the Mansion. Although General Hou is under Jiuqing, he has great power. Liu Bei, as a relative of the emperor, is only a general of Zuo, and he is still under the rear general. It can be said that Cao Cao gave Cao Peng the right to open the mansion, and to a certain extent, it also shows Cao Peng's status in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

But at what cost?

Guo Jia smiled bitterly in his heart: I hope that after Ah Fu knows, don't blame me!

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

With the advent of early summer, the temperature in Jingnan increased sharply.

The scorching sun during the day and drizzle at night make the weather humid and muggy. Many people who are used to the weather in the north are not used to it.

Cao Peng was the same, staying in the Governor's Mansion to recuperate from his injuries, but he felt extremely uncomfortable.

The temporary cessation of the war in Jingnan also ushered in a period of calm for Wuling.

Lai Gong sent someone to visit Cao Peng and inform Pang Shanmin that he was about to become the Taishou of Jiangxia. Cao Peng had been prepared for this, so he was not surprised.

The wound is gradually healing, but it will take time to heal completely.

Guan Yu's stabbing of Cao Peng was more ruthless than the shot of Cao Peng that injured Guan Yu.

To some extent, it hurts the meridians. After Hua Tuo came to Hanshou to diagnose Cao Peng, he warned Cao Peng: Do not do anything with others within three months, otherwise it will affect your future life. Therefore, Cao Peng could only obediently obey the orders and stay in the governor's mansion every day.

Xun Yu has returned to Zuotang, and it is said that he will go to Jiangxia soon.

Hanshou has nothing to do, big and small, all of which are taken care of by Fa Zheng, Zhang Song and Jiang Wan, and Cao Peng is also happy to have a leisure.

On this day, Cao Peng made an appointment with Huang Zhong and prepared to go out for a boat trip to Dongting Lake.

But suddenly someone came to report: "Tai Shi Ci sent someone to come, saying that he would really set up a banquet on the lake, and invite the governor to go to a meeting." ”

Cao Peng was stunned for a moment!

What did Tai Shici mean by inviting me to the banquet?

"When, can you explain?"

"Three days later, on Dongting Lake."

Cao Peng frowned, and couldn't help but hesitate.

He didn't have any friendship with Tai Shici, and he hadn't even met in person. However, Cao Peng admires this person a lot, after all, he is also a general in his previous life, which he respected and loved very much. Among the Jiangdong military ministers, there are not many people that Cao Peng likes. Sun Ce is one, and Tai Shici is also one. In contrast, perhaps it was the deliberate ugliness of Zhou Yu in the romance that made Cao Peng a little disliking Zhou Yu.

"Please come to the military advisor and the long history."

Cao Peng thought about it and decided to cancel today's plan.

After a while, Fa Zheng, Zhang Song and Jiang Wan came one after another.

Cao Peng explained the situation in detail, and then asked: "Taishi Ziyi and I have never had a relationship, and suddenly held a banquet on the lake, why not?" ”

The three of them are also a little confused!

Generally speaking, this kind of banquet requires at least a small friendship. But Cao Peng and Tai Shici don't know each other, so when they talk about friendship, there is no way to talk about it. The two sides are hostile, and although the war in Jingnan has subsided, it has always been a relationship between friend and foe. At this time, I am afraid that I have ulterior motives for inviting Cao Peng to go. But what exactly is the reason? Fa Zheng and the others couldn't guess a clue for a while.

"The Metropolitan Governor is in charge of the war in Jingnan, he is in a high position, and he can't easily get into danger."

Jiang Wan didn't know much about Tai Shici, so he naturally objected.

But Zhang Song said: "Not really, it is precisely because of the high power of the governor of the capital that he cannot easily refuse, so as not to be ridiculed and ridiculed by Tai Shi Ci." ”

"Is it a big face, or is life important?"

"The metropolitan governor is the representative of the prime minister in Jingzhou, and his face is naturally important."

"Do you even care about your life for the sake of face?"

"Ha, in my opinion, Taishi Ziyi may not have this kind of courage."

"Yongnian's words are not bad, but just because Tai Shici 'may not' have the guts, wouldn't it be too child's play to make the Metropolitan Governor take risks?"

Before Cao Peng and Fa Zheng could speak, Jiang Wan and Zhang Song argued.

After a while, Fa Zheng spoke: "This time Tai Shi Ci invited him, and there may not be malicious intent.
