(Ask for recommendation votes, Confucius said: You have to vote when you read books, and you have to be kind!) ）

Wang Fen is quite famous in history, but he is not the kind of person who is loyal to the Han family, on the contrary, because of the persecution of the two party disasters, it can be said that Wang Fen hates the court very much, and hates Liu Hong, the emperor of the Han Dynasty.

According to historical records, in April 188, Wang Fen, the assassin of Jizhou, Xu You, a native of Nanyang County, and Zhou Jing, a native of Peiguo, saw that the heavenly phenomena were not conducive to the eunuchs, and prepared to punish the eunuchs, abolish Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, and re-establish the Marquis of Hefei as the emperor of the Han clan. So, Wang Fen and others made preparations in advance, and connected with Cao Ying. Cao Ying thought that the time had not yet come, so he should not move lightly, so he replied and refused.

Soon, Emperor Ling wanted to tour the old house between the rivers in the north, and Wang Fen and others were ready to take the opportunity to attack, but they wrote a book falsely claiming that the Black Mountain Army had attacked the county and asked for troops to attack. And Taishi believes that the weather is unfavorable and "it is not suitable to go north". Emperor Ling stopped, and Wang Fen dismissed the army, and then recruited Wang Fen into the court. Wang Fen was afraid of being exposed and committed suicide.

There is a lot to be used for this matter, and it is now October 187, and if the historical trajectory develops, Wang Fen and others will soon get into trouble. In this case, you only need to wait for half a year, and when Wang Fen's matter is revealed, even if she doesn't die, she will be forced to flee. At that time, the dragons of Jizhou will have no leader, and it will be easy to get, so why fight with Wang Fen now?

Not only that, but also to have a good relationship with Wang Fen, especially because he is a talent under him, he must be properly wooed, otherwise it will be futile to take Jizhou without governance.

After making up his mind, Ma Chao instructed Meng Da: "Zi Jing hurry up and prepare one hundred and fifty gold, three jade belts, divided into three parts, this candidate has its own wonderful use!" After that, he sent someone to find silk silk, and wrote a handwritten reply letter to Fu Zhu in public.

The letter was gorgeously worded and brilliant, expressing his admiration for the talent of the frustrated professor, and euphemistically proposing the intention of making friends, and even mentioning the friend of the frustrated professor, another great talent in Jizhou, Tian Feng, almost the whole article was the appreciation and compliment of the two, and did not mention anything about the seizure of Wang Fen's military power, only said that he would go to Taihang Mountain as soon as possible to pacify the Black Mountain thieves!

After Meng Da prepared three burdens to come in, Ma Chao just put down the pen, read it carefully, and then sent someone to invite Pan Feng over. After the greetings, Ma Chao inquired in detail about the current military strength in Jizhou, and finally said with a smile: "General Pan has worked hard all the way, and what you said will have been decided. After that, he pointed to the three burdens and said: "One copy of the gift was given to General Pan, and the other two were handed over to the frustrated farewell, which was already stated in the letter, and you will know it at a glance!" ”

Pan Feng was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly shook his head and said, "How can this be made?" The last general is just a messenger, how dare he accept a gift from the general! This matter must not be done, and I ask the general to take it back, as for the two copies that were transferred to Mr. Fu, the general will definitely bring them! "The attitude is very resolute.

Ma Chao said: "Why is General Pan so polite? Today, if you hadn't eliminated Yan Liang, whether Ben would have won or not was still in the number of five or five, so it could be regarded as a great help to Ben General, so why bother with just a small gift! In addition, the general is about to send troops to Taihang Mountain to fight for thieves, and there will be no shortage of places to rely on General Pan, so I am afraid that General Pan will be troublesome! ”

Pan Feng said: "The general said that he laughed, Pan Mou is just a local military Sima, if the general can use it, even if he is instructed, he will never frown in the water and fire!" ”

"Well, happy! General Pan is a bold person, someone is coming! Bring the wine! Ben was going to have a drink with General Pan. ”

Pan Feng is now Wang Fenjun's Sima, who holds military power, and is bold and honest, maybe it will come in handy in the future, so Ma Chao tried his best to make friends.

After sending Pan Feng away, Ma Chao didn't explain the reason to everyone, he caressed his palm and smiled: "Big things can be done!" After today, Han Sheng and Lao Dian each brought their entourage back to their hometowns to pick up their families first, and I have agreed with Ding Tingshi that I will temporarily send troops to Shangdang County, and I can send troops when you two return. ”

The two nodded yes, but Meng Da interjected: "Lord Qiqi, at the end of this day, we will recruit two brave and powerful people, one is named Wenpin, the word Zhongye, and the other is Li Yan, the word is square, the two belong to the same township, both are from Nanyang, I heard that the lord will be the hero of the world in Luoyang, and he will come together with admiration!" ”

"Wenpin! Li Yan! Ma Chao was overjoyed and said: "Wen Ping is the big man who was defeated under Hua Xiong?" ”

Meng Dadao: "Exactly, the two of them went to the camp early in the morning to ask to see the lord, but the lord is late today, and there are trivial matters, so the last general will not have time to report until now. ”

Ma Chao patted his forehead and said with a wry smile: "It's all the eunuchs!" Come on in, no! Where are they now? Ben was going to meet him in person. ”

Meng Da said: "What kind of identity is this lord, and it is unseemly to greet the two untouchables in person?" The last general will go and invite them over. ”

Ma Chao said: "Zi respects the difference in this statement! Ben Jiang once said that everyone in the world is equal, there are high and low talents, and there is a difference between high and low status, but people themselves have no noble and lowly words, just as Chen Sheng Wang said: Princes and princes will have a kind of Xiangning! Although I am now a champion marquis, a general of the expedition to the north, and a concubine of the dynasty, in addition to these external halos, I am no different from ordinary people, and the same is true of the Son of Heaven and the doctor. ”

Several people were in awe when they heard this, and Meng Da said with a guilty face: "The lesson of the lord is that Zijing has been taught, and the two of them have been waiting outside the tent for a long time, just need to report it, and there is no need to greet it!" After that, he returned to his height and said, "Two strong men, please come in quickly!" Otherwise, my lord will personally go out and invite you."

Before the words fell, two big men walked in side by side, Wen Ping was more than eight feet long, about 20 years old, burly, white-faced and short-bearded, and handsome. Li Yan is half a head shorter than Wen Ping, nearly eight feet, with broad shoulders and a thick back, similar in age to Wen Ping, ordinary appearance, and a short goat beard.

As soon as the two entered the door, they bowed and saluted, and said in unison: "Caomin Wenpin (Li Yan) meets the champion Hou!" ”

Ma Chao hurriedly got up to greet him, stepped forward to help the two of them, and said loudly: "The two strong men are not polite!" This is so entangled in trivial matters that he is sluggish, and please Haihan for the faux pas! ”

The two of them didn't dare to say that they didn't dare to say anything, and Wen Hi said: "The champion Hou is in a high position, and he is working state affairs all night, and it is already our honor to see him, where do I dare to blame!" I have heard the name of the champion Hou for a long time, and the two of us have admired it for a long time, and the conceit is not empty in the belly, and there is still a brute force, so we are here to meet each other."

Li Yan nodded and said: "That's right, I heard that the general is about to send troops to fight against the Black Mountain thieves, just when employing people, the two of us do not seek high positions, we are willing to start from the grassroots level, and I hope that the general will not dislike us!" ”

Ma Chao was ecstatic, he had worked hard for so long, and finally someone was willing to take the initiative to vote, and all the previous efforts were not in vain. Although these two are not top talents, they can definitely be regarded as first-class talents, and they are the kind that are relatively high in the first-class!

The civil and military force is average, and it can barely be regarded as the last class of the first class, otherwise it would not have been defeated by the first-class Huaxiong in seventy or eighty times. But in Ma Chao's heart, he has to win ten Huaxiong with one Wen, Wenren is an all-rounder, Wen can govern the state and county, and Wu can guard one side. In history, after Liu Biao served as the assassin of Jingzhou, Wen Ping went to Liu Biao to reuse, and has been guarding the north of Jingzhou, fighting against Cao Ying, Zhang Xiu, Yuan Shu and other princes, and trying to ensure that the north is not lost!

After Liu Biao's death, Liu Cong led the crowd to surrender, and Wen Ping was reused by Cao Ying and appointed as Jiangxia Taishou. After Wen Ping took office, he resisted Sun Quan for more than ten years, during which he repeatedly frustrated Guan Yu, governed internal affairs, and applied both grace and power, his name shocked the enemy country, and his merits shocked the government and the opposition, and he was definitely a handsome man who stood alone!

Li Yan is also a native of Nanyang, initially defected to Liu Biao, served as a county official, quite famous, after Cao Ying was stationed in Jingzhou, Li Yan entered Shu and defected to Liu Zhang, was appointed as the county commander of Chengdu, and became more famous. After Liu Bei attacked Xishu, Li Yan had resisted Liu Bei, and was able to fight with the elderly Huang Zhong for forty or fifty undefeated, and after surrendering Liu Bei, he had to be reused, and he was one of Liu Bei's two important ministers!

Li Yansheng's surname is arrogant, enthusiastic about his career, and he has made many achievements in politics, but it is a pity that he is inferior to Zhuge Liang in the end by playing with power and scheming, and finally he was dismissed by Zhuge Liang and demoted to a common person, and he died of grief.

"Two talented people, it is an honor for me to be like-minded! Repay the peach, I should treat each other with sincerity and reuse it! At present, there are all kinds of waste waiting to be revived, and it is the time to employ people, the two of them will be wronged first, and temporarily serve as the captain of the army under my command and the post of Sima of Don't Drive, and after the meritorious service, there will be a reward! After a little contemplation, Ma Chao made a decision, these two people are still young, they need to accumulate experience, and smoothing the edges and corners is of great use, and it is definitely unreliable based on historical records alone.

The two of them were overjoyed, and their expressions were excited, although the commander of the army and the other driver Sima were not in the stream, they held the power of the army and led an army, which was by no means a vain position. The two glanced at each other and said in unison: "I am willing to serve the lord, and I will not hesitate to go to the soup and fire!" "Say goodbye, bow down on one knee.

Ma Chao hurriedly helped the two of them up, and said happily: "The two of them are both civil and military, and they are really great talents in governing the country and securing the country!" With the help of Zhongye and Zhengfang, I don't have to worry about it! This crusade against the Montenegrin thieves, the two of you must accumulate military exploits, establish fame, and then be able to shepherd one side, benefit the people of one side, be glorious and rich, and fight for high-ranking officials and Houluren! ”

Ma Chao is not talking about this, Wen Ping and Li Yan can be civil and martial, and it is more than enough for the herdsman to guard the side, otherwise Liu Bei and Cao Ying would not be able to reuse these two. In particular, Wen Ping is loyal, resourceful, and strategic, and his usable value is even greater than that of a fierce general like Dian Wei.

Overjoyed, Ma Chao simply set up a small banquet in the temporary military camp for the two of them to catch the wind and wash the dust, and asked a few people for some details during the banquet. At this time, Wen Ping had two out of twenty, and Li Yan had four out of twenty, and he had a wife in his hometown of Nanyang, but he had no heirs, and they were all from poor families. Dian Wei already had a son, Dian Man, who was just three years old at this time. Huang Zhong has a son and a daughter, the eldest son is twelve, and the second daughter is nine years old. Chen Zhi is the same year as Zhang Liao, nineteen years old, both single, and has no wife. Lejin has just turned 20, and his wife is pregnant.

Ma Chao authorized Dian Wei, Huang Zhong, Wen Ping, and Li Yan to each receive 20 gold as road expenses, and each brought ten people to return to their hometowns to pick up the family, and agreed to return on the fifth day, as for Chen Dao, Zhang Liao and Le Jin, they saved trouble.

During the banquet, several people talked happily, and unconsciously missed the heroic fight in the afternoon. At this time, suddenly a personal soldier came to report: Bingzhou Assassin Shi Ding Yuan asked to see.

Ma Chao was stunned for a moment, and when he went out, he saw Ding Yuan's brows tightly locked, looking extremely anxious, and he was surprised for a while, and hugged his fists and said: "Uncle Ding has something to send someone to order, don't come in person to torture the little nephew!" ”

Ding Yuan's face was full of worry and said: "It's not good, I have to come!" ”
