Chapter 52: Go
Seeing Du Chen say this, Guo Jia and Xi Zhong also stood up and said, "In that case, Jia (Zhong) will meet the lord." And Du Chen is from the next generation, the word lord is really a little unspeakable, very embarrassing. Seeing this, Cao Cao didn't care, and said with a smile, "Si Lang is an old friend, so let's call Meng De!" It's a blessing to be able to get Si Lang's help this time! Although Cao Cao had already made a decision about the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, he still had to ask everyone to discuss, and soon several strategists under Cao Cao's command were invited in. After everyone arrived, Cao Cao opened his mouth and said: "The Qingzhou Yellow Turban has repeatedly violated my territory, and I want to send troops to exterminate the scourge, what do you think?" ”
Under the hall, everyone looked at each other, and it was Xun Yu who took the lead and said: "What the lord said is true, the yellow scarf of Qingzhou is very powerful, if it is not eliminated early, it will inevitably be a disaster for Yanzhou in the future." At this time, the lord entered Yanzhou, and he needed to do something to calm the people's hearts, and this Qingzhou Yellow Turban was an excellent opportunity. If the lord can collect this Yellow Turban Army, he will definitely gain fame and fortune and his strength will rise greatly. ”
Xun Yu's words were not far from Du Chen's intentions, they all planned to collect the Yellow Turban Army to increase their strength. Cao Cao also agreed very much with this point of view of the two. Then I heard Cao Cao ask, "Do you have any other opinions?" ”
"If what is said is true, we will reconsider." Everyone in the audience stood up and said.
Cao Cao looked around for a moment, and then said, "Since this is the case, then this matter is decided." However, there is one more thing at the moment, that is, who will lead the troops to recruit the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army. As soon as Cao Cao finished speaking, he looked towards Du Chen.
Seeing Cao Cao looking at him, Du Chen suddenly felt a little bad. Sure enough, I heard Cao Cao say: "Si Lang said that you only seek military affairs, and now this matter is obviously Si Lang." Cao Cao said with a smile that made people look unusually weird.
Seeing that the matter had been decided, and that he was suffering the consequences because of himself, Du Chen also felt very helpless, and then Du Chen could only say helplessly: "Since this is the case, then I will go on a trip." But it's just me, I'm afraid I'm powerless~~" Du Chen deliberately lengthened his voice, and then looked around at everyone in the hall.
Hearing Du Chen say this, everyone in the hall hurriedly excused himself. First Xun Yu Xun Yu refused because he was busy with business, and then Xi Zhong and Guo Jia were excellent, the two of them actually became drunk and unconscious, and their minds were not clear enough for fear of helping Du Chen, so they also refused.
Looking at the appearance of a room full of people who have nothing to do with themselves, Du Chen is angry. At this moment, there were ten thousand divine beasts in their hearts that raised their heads.
"I was careless in making friends!" Du Chen looked up to the sky and sighed, causing everyone in the room to hide their faces and smile.
"Don't worry, Si Lang, how can I let you fight alone, I will send generals to go with you." After laughing, Cao Cao opened his mouth and said to Du Chen. Then Cao Cao passed the order and ordered Du Chen to be the main general, leading Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Yu Ban and other four generals to lead troops to attack the Qingzhou Yellow Turban.
After receiving the order, Du Chen went home to accompany Qin Xi and Cai Yan. After returning to the mansion arranged by Cao Cao for himself, facing the tender Qin Xi and Cai Yan, Du Chen's heart was somewhat unbearable. After all, since I met the two of them, I have been in a busy state, and I rarely have time to settle down. So for Qin Xi and Cai Yan, Du Chenxin is somewhat ashamed.
Facing Cai Yan in front of him, Du Chen wanted to speak, but he couldn't say it because of the shame in his heart. And this Cai Yan is also Bing Xue smart, as early as after Du Chen entered the house, Cai Yan found out that Du Chen had something on his mind.
"Husband doesn't need to be like this, you and I are husband and wife, what can't we say. There is almost a war in the vicinity, and it seems that he is going to lead an army to the battle. Cai Yan raised his head slightly and looked directly at Du Chen.
Seeing Cai Yan, who had already guessed his intentions, Du Chen couldn't bear it, but what he should face still needs to be faced. Du Chen could only hug Cai Yan gently, and said apologetically: "I'm ashamed of you." When I return victorious, I will accompany you well! ”
Cai Yan nodded slightly and was silent. In fact, she is reluctant to Du Chen, but she understands the reason, so she will not make any drastic moves.
After comforting Cai Yan, Du Chen went to say goodbye to Qin Xi again. The result is not much different from Cai Yan's, and Qin Xi is also a reasonable woman, so it didn't cause much trouble to Du Chen.
There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, Du Chen said goodbye to everyone and led his troops leisurely towards Qingzhou.
On the official road near Qingzhou, a majestic army is marching towards Qingzhou. This team is the bandit army led by Du Chen.
"Yuan Rang, where are we now?" On horseback, Du Chen wiped the sweat on his cheeks, turned his head and asked Xiahoudun. However, it is obvious that Du Chen asked the wrong person this time, Du Chen's words were asked for a long time, but Xiahoudun still did not say why.
Looking at this famous general of the Three Kingdoms helplessly, Du Chen suddenly felt a headache. You must know that Xiahoudun is Cao Wei's first national father, according to legend, Xiahoudun is studious and professional, although he is in the military, he will personally greet the teacher to give a lecture. And he is extremely strong. And now it seems that Du Chen only saw Xiahoudun's fierceness, but he didn't see anything else.
Seeing that Xiahouyuan did not reply, Du Chen turned his head to look at Xiahouyuan again. Xiahou Yuan took a detailed look at the map, and then hugged his fist towards Du Chen and said, "Mr. Huiyu, we have just passed Lu County, and we are about to arrive at the boundary of Qingzhou. ”
Hearing Xiahou Yuan's words, Du Chen suddenly frowned. He arrived in Qingzhou immediately, but he didn't see a shadow of the Yellow Turban Army, which made Du Chen puzzled.
Because according to the intelligence, the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou has already penetrated into Yanzhou, and Du Chen has led the army for so long without a shadow of the Yellow Turban Army. This had to make Du Chen feel puzzled. As the saying goes, there must be a demon when something goes wrong, looking at the weird scene, Du Chen's heart couldn't help but rise.
"It will take a second to pass my order, and if we go ten miles further, we will stop and rest." Du Chen pondered for a moment, then turned his head and said to Xiahou Yuan, who was something.
Hearing Du Chen's words, Xiahou Yuan frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything. But if he didn't say it, it didn't mean that others wouldn't say it, so he saw Xiahoudun suddenly say quietly: "Why are you resting again?" Sir, our body is abundant, and it will be okay to rest for a few dozen miles. ”
Xiahoudun's words aroused the unanimous approval of all the generals. You must know that Cao Cao ruled this county, but he couldn't make ends meet. The grain and grass that they marched and fought on their own know that they saved by frugality, and everyone wanted to increase the speed of the march, so that they could exterminate the Qingzhou Yellow Turban as soon as possible. But Du Chen delayed the fighter at this time, how could this not make the generals feel dissatisfied.
Du Chen turned his head and glanced at Xiahoudun, then at the rest of the generals, and then asked, "Do you think the same way?" ”
The generals did not speak, but they all nodded slightly.
"In that case, let's march thirty miles." Seeing that everyone was so insistent, Du Chen immediately spoke. After speaking, Du Chen rode forward alone
For Du Chen to compromise so lightly, all the generals were a little at a loss. Looking at Du Chen's gradually departing back, a trace of contempt was generated by the hearts of the generals.
"I don't know what Meng De thinks. actually let a scholar Wenruo be the commander. If it's good, it's a strategist, but if it's not good, it's just a villain who likes to sneak attack from behind. Xiahoudun pursed his lips and said.
"Big brother, how can you say that!" Xiahou Yuan glanced at Xiahoudun and said: "How can you be so unkind to Mr. Du, you must know that he is the general of the three armies chosen by the lord, and he will not go wrong if you say this." ”
"It's okay!" Xiahoudun waved his hand and said with some disdain: "I don't think that Du Silang will lead the troops to fight at all, if you really get to the battlefield, who will arrange time for you to conspire and trick, and it will not depend on us at that time." ”
"But Meng De came out and told us that we must listen to Mr. when we go to war this time, if we go back like this, I am afraid that it will be difficult to explain to Meng De." At this time, Cao Hong also spoke to persuade him.
"In the future, Meng De will blame him, and it will be better for me to bear it alone." Xiahou said with a smile on his face.
In this regard, the other three shook their heads helplessly. Everyone knows the character of Xiahoudun, as long as he is really accurate, no one can dissuade him from coming back. And the only thing everyone wants to do now is how to make Du Chen lose some face.
The generals led the army for more than 30 miles before setting up camp, but at this time, all the soldiers felt a trace of fatigue. So after dinner, the soldiers went down early to rest.
