Chen Ba first dissuaded him and said, "The general must not refuse this person's surrender to the table. Gao Yue asked dissatisfiedly, "What do you mean by that?"www.biquge.info Chen Baxian explained: "Please listen to my explanations one by one, first of all, although Li Bi is in a predicament at the moment, his own strength has not suffered much loss, and we are only afraid that he will fight for the trapped beasts when we attack, which will be unfavorable to us." Secondly, warlords like Li Bi want to surrender and even have the intention of switching to our side, if you refuse, it is equivalent to rejecting all the people who want to surrender in the day, so that the people in Guanzhong will blindly defend and do things that are dead. As soon as these two sentences were spoken, Gao Yue was silent.

Chen Ba hit the railway while it was hot: "Last but not least, the purpose of our army's march this time is to reach Guanzhong as soon as possible through the Meridian Valley, not to waste military strength here and fight with Li Bi, because we can encircle Yuwenhu's hundreds of thousands of troops when we enter Guanzhong as soon as possible, so that the king's troops on the frontal battlefield can occupy an advantage, which will play a very important role in promoting the early end of the war for us." ”

Shi Yan and Qian Miao both nodded again and again this time, Chen Baxian's analysis is very reasonable, Li Bi must have no intention of fighting at the moment, and it doesn't hurt to let him go back to Chengdu or Liangzhou, because even if he wants to make a comeback, it will take at least a long time to reorganize, but I am afraid that by then the war will be over and the world will have determined its name. Li Bi has great ability, what other waves can he make?

Although Gao Yue was very reluctant, he couldn't help but admit that what others said was reasonable, and going against the sky would not end well. But he didn't want to let Li Bi go so easily, so he asked Chen Baxian: "I don't want to let him leave so easily, do you have any good ways here?" Chen Baxian nodded and said: "The general's matter is actually very simple, we accept Li Bi's surrender, but we want him to leave all the armaments and materials, and only give him two days of dry food, except for a short knife in his hand, other weapons and clothing and equipment can not be taken away, to prevent him from making trouble halfway, and to give us supplies here, and take advantage of the situation to enter the Guanzhong." ”

At this time, even Chai Yanping nodded frequently, and said in his heart It seems that there are still fierce generals and wise generals in Jiangnan, how could Gao Huan, a person like this who is both civil and military, not bring him to the main battlefield in Chang'an to show his skills, it's a pity. How did he know that Gao Huan was the one who crossed over, and knew Chen Baxian's identity, and if he didn't kill him, he was already on the net. Gao Yue then said: "Okay, then this matter will be left to you to negotiate with Li Bi, at present, we can't take it lightly, and we can't be careless until the final result of the matter comes out." ”

Everyone retreated, Chai Yanping also turned to leave, and Gao Yue called out to him at this time: "General Chai stays." Chai Yanping stood aside respectfully and arched his hand: "What is the matter with the general looking for the last general?" Gao Yue got up and walked down from the desk with a piece of paper on the desk, handed it to him and said: "You have worked hard these days, and you have come thousands of miles to wish me a hand, I will remember these merits for you, and when this battle is over, I will definitely tell the king to ask him to reward him for meritorious deeds, this is the eight hundred miles sent by your lord last night, you can take a look." ”

Chai Yanping took the paper and looked at it, it was Gao Bin's urgent letter, asking Chai Yanping to immediately take the people to East Qinzhou, because they had already joined Gao Aocao's troops, and they were facing off against Yuan Xin and Dugu Xin's troops at the moment, Gao Bin hoped that Chai Yanping could come back to help. After reading it, he nodded and asked, "His Royal Highness King Qi should know about this matter, right?" Gao Yue was very satisfied with his primary and secondary relationship, nodded and said, "He knows and agrees." ”

So Chai Yanping integrated his men and horses to leave Fengning and go north into the Luonan area on the same day, trying to return to Huazhou and then back to East Qinzhou by the same route. At this moment, Li Bi's more than 50,000 people were all dressed in single clothes and holding a short knife, and they were carrying two days' worth of dry food to evacuate in the direction of Chengdu in despair. Gao Yue wrote the detailed battle situation into an official letter and reported it to Gao Huan, so he asked Chen Ba to stay in Hanzhong first, because Han Zhaowu was dead, Li Bi retreated at the moment, and Hanzhong happened to be occupied by no one.

He took his remaining 60,000 people, as well as Shi Yan, Qian Miao, Xiao Ji and others to prepare to enter the Meridian Valley and go north all the way to the pass. Why his people are fighting more and more, this is understandable, the nearby counties have recruited new people, and there are stragglers who have taken over Han Zhaowu, and the natural residence has expanded the troops. Chen Baxian has a very grudge against Gao Yue's arrangement, his own ability is far above Gao Yue, but he has always been subordinate to him, which is also the most unacceptable, the most unacceptable thing is that this person often humiliates himself by various means.

Chen Baxian thought that he had helped Gao Yuebing solve the strong enemy of Li Bi without blood, no matter how he calculated, he would take himself to Guanzhong to compete with the powerful warlords of Yuwentai to try the level of the battle array, but he never thought that he would be assigned to the wild place of Hanzhong, Chen Baxian was very disappointed in his heart, he felt that as long as he was still under Gao Yue, his future would be bleak and hopeless.

But at present, he has not thought of rebelling, first of all, he is a person who is unwilling to take the initiative to provoke disputes, but as long as there is a way out, he will not take risks, secondly, the war in Jiangnan has been dissipated for a long time, and the people also feel the prosperity and tranquility brought by the stability of the Eastern Wei regime, and no one is willing to rebel with him. Seeing such a situation, Chen Baxian was dissatisfied in his heart, and he could only choose to forbear, because at least he had no intention of persecuting his whole family.

Before Gao Yue left, he deliberately brought Chen Ba first, wanting to explain the situation to him. Gao Yue handed him the teacup and said: "The general's talent is actually not under me, because of this, I have entrusted you with the responsibility of pressing the formation behind the palace, and now Jiankang has General Wang to guard me, I am not worried, you also know that the situation in Hanzhong Xinfu is still very unstable in all aspects, at this time, I urgently need a person like you who is both civil and military and has a lot of means to help me look at Hanzhong, keep an eye on Li Bi, and prevent him from making waves in Chengdu after we enter Guanzhong." ”

Chen Baxian was expressionless and didn't say a word, Gao Yue hurriedly continued: "After our main force enters Guanzhong, the Jiangnan area is actually in a state of emptiness in the rear, and I don't want to see someone take advantage of our absence to raise troops in Jiangnan again, and the situation that has finally stabilized really doesn't want to be used by individuals with ulterior motives, and ignorant people are sometimes easily bewitched and instigated." So after much thought, I finally decided that it was most appropriate for you to stay as the main general. Do you think I'm right about my analysis? ”

Chen Baxian came to his senses at this time, nodded and said: "The general is really far-sighted, thinking about the long-term ahead of us, the last general also misunderstood your meaning a little before, now you say this, the last general's heart suddenly brightened, and immediately understood what you meant, and asked the general to forgive the last general's superficial ignorance." As he spoke, he got up and bowed down to Gao Yue and apologized.

Gao Yue hurriedly got up and helped him up, and said with a smile: "Oh, General Chen, what are you talking about, why do we have to be a family like this, as long as you can recognize your own shortcomings, after I explain it to you, you understand the importance of yourself here, what does it matter if I am temporarily misunderstood by you?" "Chen Ba said in his heart that I was too lazy to talk to you, do you really think I don't know your careful thoughts? Jobbery! But he still said very sincerely: "The last general, thank you for the general's support." The two are reconciled as good as ever. (To be continued.) )
