At nightfall, Aso entered the account, presented a famous thorn, and said, "Someone has come to visit the general." ”
Ma Han took the famous thorn, but his eyes stopped on Asu's face, and asked with a smile: "Why do you look reluctant, you don't want to go to Zhongshan?" ”
Aso said honestly: "Yes, I finally returned to the general, but I have to go to Zhongshan again, I ......"
Ma Han shook his head and said, "As an attendant by my side, it is difficult to have the opportunity to make meritorious contributions. ”
Asu hurriedly said: "My subordinates don't care whether they are meritorious or not, they are only willing to carry the stirrups for the general." ”
Ma Han Zhengse said: "I hope that even if you become an attendant, you must strive to become the chief officer of the attendant, if you have no merit, how can you be the chief officer?" This time, I will give you the lowest military position of the captain, as long as you go back and forth safely, this commander will be considered solid. Look at the attendants around me, which one of them is down to the army, and he can't be the commander, or even the team leader? ”
Asu said yes in his mouth, and muttered secretly, these attendants are all wolf tooth flying horses, the most elite soldiers of the White Wolf Army, which one of my new recruits can compare? Although he said so, how could he not know the meaning of the lord's cultivation, he could only be grateful.
Ma Han glanced at the famous thorn, sighed lightly, touched his chin and thought for a while, and nodded: "Please come in." ”
Less leaning, but hearing the sound of the wood, Aso introduced a person. Wearing a square hat and a green robe. Tall and thin, about forty years old, with a white face and a slight beard, a broad and smooth forehead, a bit like the head of a birthday star, his eyes flashing, and he is full of energy.
The people who came came and went with their socks on, entered proudly, and saluted Ma Hanchang: "Jiyin Dong Zhao Dong Gongren, I have seen General Wei." ”
Ma Han smiled. Su Shou made a gesture of invitation: "Dong Yilang, please sit down." ”
Dong Zhao, Ma Han has an impression, not only in history, in recent days, this person has also been in and out of the minister's place in Luoyang, and he is one of the topic figures, and Hawkeye has already reported the details of this person.
This Dong Zhao was originally Yuan Shao's subordinate, and the official was too shou of Wei County, and he was quite valued by Yuan Shao. However, because his younger brother Dong visited the former Chen Liutaishou Zhang Miao's staff. And Yuan Shao and Zhang Miao had a feud (in the same year, Yuan Shaoxing soldiers attacked and killed Zhang Miao's brother Zhang Chao), so he was suspicious of Dong Zhao. And the local forces of the Yuan Shao group also took a high position from this steal (Wei County is the county of Jizhou. Therefore, Wei County Taishou is also higher than other county Taishou) outsiders are not used to it, and take the opportunity to fall into the well.
Dong Zhao had a sense of crisis before the autumn wind moved, and immediately expressed his willingness to be the messenger. The Acting Lord came to see the Son of Heaven. Yuan Shao did not doubt that he had him, and Dong Zhao took the opportunity to break away from Yuan Shao Group. But halfway through, he was cut off by Zhang Yang -- while passing through Hanoi. Zhang Yangqiang intercepted him, and half-forced him to return the official seal and ribbon to the imperial court, and awarded him a cavalry captain.
When the Son of Heaven returned to the east, Zhang Yang wanted to send tribute grain to meet the Son of Heaven. At this time, Dong Zhao's old tricks were repeated, and he made a pilgrimage on behalf of Zhang Yang for the same reason. Because he brought a large amount of grain and labor force to Hanoi, and his contribution to grain was second only to Ma Han, so the ministers of the Son of Heaven were greatly rejoiced and named him a councilor.
Dong Zhao's name is not known in later generations, but he is a veritable wise man in history. Such a person, of course, would not tie the fate of himself and his family to a "lord" like Zhang Yang, who has no prospects. He is like a patient hunter, waiting for the "target" to appear. Just two months ago, he received a letter from a friend in the same state, and after some persuasion, he had basically determined his next lord. At the same time, start planning a big meeting gift.
Before crossing the river, Dong Zhao had heard rumors about Ma Han, and even Zhang Yang said that this person was brave and good at fighting, or another Lu Bu. Dong Zhao had seen Lu Bu at Yuan Shao's place, and he had a very bad impression of this person, and he was not even interested in Ma Han. After crossing the river, when Dong Zhao met the Son of Heaven in the temporary political hall, he saw the "three solitary sitting" (the three dukes sat alone, attended alone, not with the hundred officials, only the lieutenant of the division can also sit alone) The general Wei, this person's youth and spirit, Dong Zhao was very surprised, plus recently visited the princes, saw the palace rising from the ground, and gradually realized that this young general Wei is probably very different from Lu Bu. Anyway, he decided to pay a visit for himself to find out.
After the two sides made a cold announcement, Dong Zhao took out a scroll of silk and presented it, and said: "Yanzhou Mu Cao Gong, I want to send an envoy to pay homage to the Son of Heaven, but I regret that he can't enter the door. I wanted to borrow Hanoi, but Ming Gong (Zhang Yang) had concerns, so he asked Zhao to pass on the book to show his intentions. ”
Cao Cao's letters? This guy reacts very quickly. Out of what he was doing at the moment, which was exactly what Cao Cao had done in history, Ma Han's vigilance suddenly rose to the red level, and he quietly ordered the attendant to take the letter.
“…… I and the general are famous for their righteousness, so they push their hearts. Today's general pulls out the difficulty of ten thousand times, on the contrary, the old capital, Ji Zuo's work, beyond the world, how rest! Fang Jinqun is fierce and cunning, the four seas are not peaceful, the artifact is the most important, and the matter is in Weifu; It is necessary for all the sages to clean up the king's track, and it is not built by one person. The four confidants are relied upon, and if they don't have anything, they will have a gap. The general should be the master of the interior, and I should be the aid of the outside. Now I have food, generals have soldiers, and there is no communication, which is enough to help each other, and life and death are broad, and they are together. ”
The real writer of this letter is not Cao Cao, but Dong Zhao in front of him, but it perfectly clarifies Cao Cao's true meaning.
Ma Han didn't know that this letter was really preserved in history, but the recipient was Yang Feng. Yang Feng was very happy when he got the book, and said to the generals: "The Yanzhou army is close to Xu'er, there are soldiers and food, and the country should rely on it." ”
A letter made Yang Feng enter the court, and since then he has been played by the people he "admires" step by step, and this is a tragic situation.
Now that Yang Feng is gone, he has been replaced by Ma Han, and Cao Cao is still the same Cao Cao, and Dong Zhao is still the same Dong Zhao, and the tricks used are also to change the soup but not the medicine.
After reading it, Ma Han's first sentence was to say to the attendant: "Take the number two." ”
This is said without beginning or end, and with Dong Zhao's wisdom, he is completely confused. But the attendant understood and retreated with a lacquer plate.
This sentence doesn't seem to mean anything, but it's actually a secret language, which means "take it to No. 2".
After entering Luoyang, Ma Han had many correspondence with the generals of the Quartet, for the sake of secrecy. Ma Han introduced the identity code name of later generations, he is the number one, and the number two is Jia Xu. Dong Zhao, who didn't know anything about the secret language of the White Wolf Army, was naturally inexplicable.
Ma Han smiled and said to Dong Zhao: "Cao Gongju is far from knowing, and Mr. Qiang doesn't know either, Han is not short of food - to be precise, he is a little nervous at the moment, but as long as he survives this month, the grain stored by our army in Donglai can be delivered." ”
Dong Zhao arched his hand and said: "Liaodong Jigu is one million. Zhao has also heard of it for a long time, but Liaodong, Henan, is thousands of miles apart, and it is difficult to quench the thirst of distant water. The general is the master, Cao Gong is a foreign aid, the soldiers and food are given to each other, and the cooperation is mutually beneficial, why not care? ”
It should be said that Dong Zhao's construction is extremely tempting. If Ma Han didn't know Cao Cao and his people, he couldn't really agree, after all, this cooperation did seem to be beneficial to both parties.
At this time, an attendant entered the room to refill the wine for the guest of honor. Ma Han stretched out his hand and lowered his gaze. But I saw that the words "letter is written on the tray" with wine. Ma Han smiled, worthy of being the number two, this can be seen. At that moment, the deacon flicked his sleeves and quietly erased the handwriting.
Jia Xu didn't mention anything about it. He believed that this lord, who was also very intelligent, naturally knew how to deal with it after understanding that the letter was ghostwritten by Dong Zhao.
Ma Han's fingers lightly buckled the case. With a slight sigh, he asked, "Can the envoy of Gong Cao bring tribute rice?" ”
Dong Zhao shook his head: "I haven't ...... The general should have heard that Yuan Gong's tribute rice was still blocked in Hanoi for most of the month, and he was able to enter the country only after the mediation of Han Taifu. With this precedent, Cao Gong naturally did not dare to be reckless. ”
"In this way, please write another letter to Gongren and forward it to Cao Gong. said that he would send the tribute rice to Xingyang, and Xu Huang, the guard general of Xingyang, would receive it. After Ma Han finished speaking, he remembered, why did I say the word "again"?
Dong Zhao obviously also heard the sound outside the strings, his white face suddenly flushed, and his heart shook wildly - this person's eyes and thoughts are so astute?!
Ma Han added: "After seeing the grain, Cao Gong's request must be answered." ”
The sharpness and aggressiveness of Ma Han's words made characters like Dong Zhao almost unable to resist.
What did Cao Cao ask for? Of course, it's nothing more than an official title. Don't look at Ah Putong's shoes holding a half-state land, called Yanzhou Mu, and what kind of Fenwu general is. In fact, it's all "self-contained". In other words, what has not been officially recognized by the imperial court is only a "fact", but it is not legal. Cao Cao wanted to get a legal status with a letter and empty gloves for the white wolf. Historically, he has done so, and he has succeeded. It's a pity that compared to the turtle in history, his current opponent is really not an order of magnitude.
Ma Han sneered in his heart, he wanted to be an official and promoted to a knight, how could he do it without any practical action? Wang Yi and Zhang Yang won the title of general one by one, and were named liehous, and their own Liaodong group also rewarded them lavishly, but they were all exchanged for food. You Cao Cao want to talk casually in the vernacular, just want to take the title, I feel too good about myself, right?
Dong Zhao felt that there was no need to stay any longer, this person was definitely not easy to deal with, and it seemed that there was no hope for this greeting gift.
But just as Dong Zhao was about to get up and say goodbye, Ma Han suddenly said: "Be benevolent and slow!" I wonder if Gongren can give me a greeting gift? ”
Asking for a gift in person? Dong Zhao was stunned for a moment, his vigilance was raised, and he said quietly: "I don't know what kind of gift the general wants?" ”
Ma Han looked at him forcefully: "I want to ask Gongren to be an envoy to Jizhou to discuss with Yuan Gong about the replacement of grain and grass." ”
Dong Zhao was surprised: "Replace grain and grass? ”
"That's right! With the grain and grass of my Donglai, replace the grain of Wei County, exchange ten percent for ninety, and give one percent of the benefits. Such a good sale and purchase, presumably Yuan Gong will not refuse, right? ”
Wonderful! Dong Zhao almost blurted out, this is the best way to solve the shortage of food in Luoyang, and the food delivery is too time-consuming, but it is just ...... Dong Zhaogu said: "Zhao Meng's son of heaven has been favored, and the general is heavy, so he should have been ordered." It's just that Zhao had a bad relationship with Yuan Gong's subordinates before, and if he sent an envoy, he was afraid that he would not succeed, but he would make a mistake, which was really not a good choice, so why didn't the general choose another virtuous ......"
Ma Han smiled firmly: "Don't worry, Gongren is on this mission, and Yuan Gong is only afraid that he will meet him backwards." ”
Dong Zhao: "......"
Ma Han unhurriedly showed his hole cards: "Gongren's trip, in order to pass on the will of the Son of Heaven from generation to generation, worship Yuan Benchu as a general!" How could he not have walked thirty miles backwards? ”
