Chapter 127: Chen Xun's Metamorphosis
Hua Xiong fought hard to get out of the encirclement, and when he came to Xuchang, he could be described as unkempt, and even Chen Xun's cronies did not recognize this former first general of the Xiliang Army for a while. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"The lord, General Xu Rong, is dead." After Hua Xiong saw Chen Xun, tears couldn't stop falling, and Chen Xun hurriedly helped Hua Xiong up and asked the reason.
After listening to Hua Xiong's story, Chen Xun's face showed a gloomy look. I think that he Chen Xun took refuge in Cao Cao because he wanted to give his subordinates a place to live, so as not to have to follow him around, but now his subordinates are dying one by one, whether in Luoyang or now Yanzhou, his subordinates have always been arranged at the forefront and fought the hardest battles.
General Xu Rong was killed by Cao Cao by borrowing a knife to kill people just because of a few letters with him. You must know that he Chen Xun didn't want to rebel, he just wanted to give his soldiers a home and an environment where they could live in peace, but now all this seems so ridiculous. Cao Cao didn't trust himself, nor did he trust his subordinates, as long as he was in Cao Cao's army, then his subordinates could only rush to the front forever. Chen Xun regrets it now, and it is also complicated. He asked his subordinates to take Hua Xiong to rest. Then lock yourself in the house.
Chen Xun in the house, he fell into madness, when Chen Xun came out, the room was already a mess, but after Chen Xun came out, he regained his calm, and restored the previous Chen Fuzhi who collapsed in front of Mount Tai and did not change his face.
Chen Xun ordered a thorough investigation of the matter of Zhencheng, because when Chen Xun calmed down, he felt that this matter was very strange, although Cao Cao was suspicious, but he would not do this kind of thing to kill chickens and take softness, Xu Rong's death even Hua Xiong could see that it was Cao Cao's handiwork, not to mention other old generals of the Xiliang Army, you must know that there are still 30,000 former soldiers of the Xiliang Army in Yanzhou, Cao Cao's move is very likely to make the soldiers of the Xiliang Army centrifugal, which is not conducive to his war with Liu Bei.
A few days later, the results of the investigation came out, and Chen Xun analyzed through clues that this matter should not be Cao Cao's handiwork, and the real shot should be Chen Xun's eldest brother Chen Deng Chen Yuanlong, and only he can come up with such a clever strategy. However, a seed has been planted in Chen Xun's heart, and he has already had a rift with Cao Cao.
Puyang battalion, because of Xu Rong's death, there were many rumors in the army.
"Hey, have you heard, the reason why General Xu Rong died in Zhencheng was because he had more dense letters with our generals, and he was suspicious of Cao Cao, so he was killed by Cao Cao, you must know that there are 5,000 soldiers of my Xiliang Army in Zhencheng, and General Xu is also a first-class commander, and it is still okay to defend it for ten days and half a month."
"Don't talk nonsense, we were defeated in Chang'an back then, and it was now Cao Gong who took us in, otherwise we would have starved to death by now."
"Hmph." The soldier showed a look of disdain on his face, and said: "Cao Cao took us in just so that our Xiliang soldiers worked for him, you see that the war was not our veterans of the Xiliang Army rushing to the front." ”
"Well, it seems to be like this, it's really Cao Mengde."
There are many such rumors in the army, and some of them are even very outrageous. Even some of Cao Cao's old soldiers were dissatisfied with Cao Cao.
Looking at the fluctuation of the army's heart, Cao Cao was very troubled, because according to the news, Liu Bei had already assembled a large army and was approaching Puyang.
"Fengxiao, what should I do now." Cao Cao had no choice but to set his sights on his military advisor Guo Jia in the face of such a military spirit.
But in the current situation, even Guo Jia can't think of any good way, if these rumors are ignored, then the momentum of the rumors will inevitably be more rampant, if the brutal suppression is adopted, then it will really confirm the rumors that Cao Cao deliberately sent the soldiers of the Xiliang Army to death.
"My lord, a letter from General Chen of Xuchang." A soldier walked into Cao Cao's tent, dragging a letter in his hand.
"What is Chen Xun doing with the letter?" Guo Jia looked at the letter and guessed the contents of the letter.
Cao Cao took the envelope, opened it, and after reading it carefully, his face suddenly showed ecstasy.
"With this letter in hand. The military can be determined. Chen Xun's letter was written to help Cao Cao refute the rumors, you must know that Chen Xun was the supreme commander of the Xiliang Army at the beginning, and with his letter, the rumors will definitely be dispelled.
In the past few days, Chen Xun has been training soldiers and horses in Xuchang, but he has no other meaning, which makes Hua Xiong's mood very irritable, when Hua Xiong knew that Chen Xun wrote a letter to help Cao Cao appease the army, Hua Xiong's side exploded.
Hua Xiong carried a big knife and scolded angrily in front of Chen Xun's mansion, saying that Chen Xun had no backbone and was a girl.
In this regard, Chen Xun just smiled faintly. Just a few days ago, Jia Xu returned from Xiliang, but was intercepted by Chen Xun and brought back to Xuchang.
Jia Xu was originally Chen Xun's person, and his sense of Chen Xun was better than Cao Cao's, so he stayed at Chen Xun's place.
"Wen Kai is too noisy, why don't you call him in and talk about our plans." Chen Xun is leisurely strolling around the courtyard with Jia Xu at the moment, Chen Xun has no edge on his body at this moment, and some are just a piece of neutrality and peace.
When Jia Xu saw Chen Xun again, he was also shocked by Chen Xun in this appearance, because Chen Xun has changed too much, if Chen Xun was a handsome person who was only for emotions in the past, the current Chen Xun should have transformed into an excellent lord. This is also one of the important reasons why Jia Xu stayed here.
Hua Xiong was led into the mansion by the servants, and the moment he saw Chen Xun, he thought that his eyes were spent, because Chen Xun's temperament has changed greatly now, and it is very different from before.
"Wen Kai, you're here." Looking at Hua Xiong, who came with a big knife, Chen Xun smiled.
Hua Xiong was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help muttering to himself: "Lord, you can't be possessed by evil spirits, right?" ”
Chen Xun stepped forward, took the big knife in Hua Xiong's hand, and then gently patted Hua Xiong's shoulder.
"Wen Kai, people always have to grow, and the current me may be the real me."
When Hua Xiong heard this, he immediately put his hand on Chen Xun's forehead, and finally muttered, "There is no fever either." ”
Hearing this, Chen Xun was full of black lines in his head, he waved his fist and hit Hua Xiong's eyes hard, hitting Hua Xiong's eyes with gold stars.
"That's right, you are my lord, and this strength cannot be wrong. Hua Xiong was overjoyed, jumping up and down in place, completely forgetting that he had come to fight with Chen Xun this time, and asked him to give himself an explanation.
"Wen Kai, be quiet, I have something to tell you." Chen Xun's face was very calm, like a bottomless deep spring.
