Shangyong Shentan, his family background is very solid, and the surrounding Fangling and Xicheng are also in his sphere of influence, which can be described as a remarkable reputation and high ability, in terms of territory, his scope of jurisdiction is even larger than Zhang Lu.

It's just that Shangyong is mountainous, and the land is not fertile, and he has more than enough self-defense, but he can't become a base for external development, so Cao Cao didn't bother to care about him, but instead gave him a township and asked him to maintain order in this area.

Shen Tan had heard of the name of Yunshan before, and he said that it would be stupid for this kind of red man to pass by here, and he would take out a lot of food money to reward the soldiers passing by, and he was looking forward to meeting with this Yun general, talking about his loyalty to the imperial court, and striving to let his family stay here forever and become the emperor of the land.

Hearing that Yunshan sent Chen Qun as a messenger to thank him, Shen Tan's eyes lit up.

Ah, Yingchuan Chen.

O people in the city.

This kind of poor and remote place can actually welcome such a cultured city person, Shen Tanden was overjoyed, greeted the door with a smile, took Chen Qun's hand with a smile on his face, and laughed:

"The wild land can actually welcome Chen Gong to visit, and there is a loss of welcome, and there is a loss of welcome.

Chen Gong please come in, Chen Gong please come in. ”

Chen Qun thought about it on the way here, although forcing Shen Tan to rebel would definitely block Cao Cao, but if Guan Ping's gang was allowed to occupy Hanzhong, it would not be a matter of adding blockage, but cutting off a big piece of meat.

He didn't dare to confront Guan Ping head-on, and he could only use this crooked and evil means.

At the very least, it can slow down his growing power.

Before seeing Shen Tan, Chen Qun was already determined to take out the style of a celebrity and make a mess, and then accused Shen Tan of disobeying Wang Hua, saying that he was going to kill him today.

But when the two met, Shen Tan's appearance really startled Chen Qun.

This person is more than eight feet tall, strong as an ox, with a pair of terrifying triangular eyes, he smiled slightly, the corners of his mouth on both sides were bent into a crescent shape, revealing a mouthful of turbid yellow and mutilated bad teeth, as long as he wanted, he could punch Chen Qun to death at any time.

Chen Qun, who was forced by the huge sense of oppression, couldn't speak, Shen Tan thought that Chen Qun was nervous, so his thick hands slowly pinched Chen Qun's arm, and dragged Chen Qun away with a casual pull.

"Hehehehe, Chen Gongxiu is polite, coming here is like returning to his own home. A certain person has already ordered someone to kill pigs and sheep, Chen Gong eats and drinks as much as he wants, who dares to treat Chen Gong slowly......"

Shen Tan's triangular eyes showed a fierce light:

"Lao Tzu twisted his neck!"

Chen Qun shuddered suddenly, and said in his heart, what kind of mountain ghost is this mountain ghost who has become a spirit to be too guarded?

He hurriedly said timidly:

"This, Jun, the Marquis is reasonable...... The prince was polite. ”

There are scribes who pretend to be forced in front of the princes, but who dares to pretend to be forced in front of the bandits.

As we all know, Shangyong is mountainous, and this closed environment will of course create a large number of bandits.

Shen Tan is the strongest, most arrogant, and most capable bandit leader in this area, and he operates all over the surrounding area like a huge cottage, so that Chen Qun, who had accumulated a belly of arrogance, did not dare to speak at all, and could only be dragged away by Shen Tan like a dead dog, looking at the undivided wine and meat in front of him sweating.

What should I do, how is it different from what I said?

Shen Tan didn't know how to interact with this kind of celebrity, so he invited Chen Qun to take a seat, and asked his subordinates to put the greasy roast sheep in front of Chen Qun, and slowly pulled out his saber, heroically cut off the sheep's head, skillfully parted the leg of the lamb, and sprinkled a large handful of Wudu peppercorns and cumin in the Western Regions on it like no money, and said enthusiastically:

"Chen Gong, please use it!"

Chen Qun nodded timidly, but he could also feel Shen Tan's kindness.

Well, calm down, this person should still have a heart for the court and will not be rude to me.

I change my strategy and wait and see what happens, maybe he can be used by me, and if I can kill Guan Ping, it will also be a blessing.

"Junhou, General Yun is fighting against Zhang Lu this time......"

Shen Tan's face changed, and he laughed again: "I'll only talk about Fengyue today, not about state affairs." Come on, come on, give Chen Gong Man, who dares to talk about war again, don't blame me for being ruthless. ”

Shen Tan's friendship with Zhang Lu is not bad, but he is not a believer in Wudoumi, and this kind of thing must be clarified if the dead Dao friend is not dead and the poor Dao is not dead.

He thought that Yunshan was worried that Shen Tan would be destroyed from behind when the imperial court attacked Zhang Lu, so he quickly diverted the topic.

Just kidding, why should I help Zhang Lu, there is nothing at all.

He kept pouring wine for Chen Qun, and frequently invited Chen Qun to drink, although Chen Qun had a good amount of alcohol, he couldn't stand this endless drinking method, and soon got drunk, Shen Tan saw that Chen Qun was so happy, so he simply asked someone to stay with Chen Qun overnight.

The next day, Chen Qun slept until noon before he got up in a daze, and before he could react, Shen Tan brought a group of people to persuade him to drink.

Chen Qun wanted to refuse very much, but Shen Tan was too enthusiastic, and poured a jar on Chen Qun, and Chen Qun fell asleep in a daze.

On the third day, when Chen Qun woke up, it was afternoon again, Shen Tan brought a group of wealthy people from Fangling to feel Chen Qun's elegance, and it was another meal of persuasion, and Chen Qun was staggered when he drank, and he really couldn't stand up, although he felt that it shouldn't be like this, but he still fell asleep.

On the fourth day, no one finally came to Chen Qun to drink, and after sleeping until the afternoon, Chen Qun got up in a daze, and finally remembered that he still had something important to do.

Hell, I drank with a bunch of bandits for three days, isn't that a joke?

He went out murderously, and saw the burly and tall Shen Tan walking from afar, still carrying a huge wine jar in his hand, and immediately shuddered.

"Prince! I can't drink anymore, I still have something important to do today! ”

"What's the matter?" Shen Tan yawned, "The villagers in Xicheng heard that Chen Gong was coming, and they also wanted to see Chen Gong's honorable face, and now they are on the way." ”

"No, no, no, I'm going to go west to Zhang Lu!"

"Huh? Zhang Lu? Shen Tan was stunned, "Oh, General Yun, they're all gone." Let's drink with confidence, and when the fight is over, they will come back to pick up Chen Gong. ”

"Huh?!" Chen Qun was so frightened that he jumped three feet high, "What did you say?" Let's go? ”

"That's right, they're all gone, Chen Gong is okay anyway, let's continue to drink, the sky won't fall!"

Guan Ping treated Chen Qun for three days, but he didn't expect Chen Qun to drink endlessly.

God knows why he was so speculative with Shen Tan, and he stayed here all the time.

He took Chen Qun to prevent Chen Qun from causing trouble again when he went on the expedition, but now that he has this Shen Tan and this wine Mengzi looking at him, Guan Ping is more relieved.

He told Shen Tan that the imperial court knew his hard work very well, and the crusade against Zhang Lu was only because of Zhang Lu's crime of killing the Taishou of Hanzhong back then, and a good squire like Shen Tan who protected the territory and the people would naturally not change much.

As long as Shen Tan entertains Chen Qun well, when Guan Ping comes back, he will naturally say good things about Shen Tan in front of the imperial court.

Shen Tan's heart was full of joy, and he swore again and again, saying that it was already a blessing in his previous life that he could be a member of the country, of course, he had to work hard to satisfy the court, and he would never do anything that harmed the Han.

He also took the initiative to give up Xicheng as a supply rendezvous for the expedition, and even sent his subordinate troops to lead Guan Ping, hoping to make Zhang Lu recognize the destiny of heaven.

This can make Chen Qunqi's face crooked.

No, I'll have to figure out how to do it.

He saw that Shen Tan looked like a wine Mengzi with a not very bright brain, and quickly called him into the house, closed the door with his own hands, and said in a low voice:

"Prince, dare to ask if you are loyal to the court?"

"Of course!" Shen Tan's eyes widened, "I, Shen Tan, came from a humble background, but I can receive great favor from the imperial court and be a township marquis." This kindness is difficult to repay in death, of course, it is the loyal and filial son of the court. For the sake of the Son of Heaven, ah, for the sake of Prime Minister Cao Cheng, even if I am asked to go up the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire, I will never frown. ”

"Okay." Chen Qun said coldly, "I have long heard that the prince is loyal and brave. Now there is an opportunity to serve the court in front of the prince, and it depends on whether the prince dares to make meritorious contributions to the glory of the ancestors. ”

"Why don't you dare?" Shen Tan said angrily, "What does the imperial court ask me to do?" I will never refuse. ”

"Let me tell you, this Yunshan is actually a fake by Guan Ping! Can you believe it? ”

"Huh?" Shen Tan looked at Chen Qun stupidly, not knowing what Chen Qun was going to say for a while.

Chen Qun hurriedly explained his previous grievances with Guan Ping, and sighed:

"This son is really cunning.

In the land of Jingzhou, everyone is played with by him. Now Prime Minister Cao Cheng also fell for his trick and asked him to attack Hanzhong.

Zhang Lu in Hanzhong must fight, but if Guan Ping takes the lead in taking this place, he will definitely close all places and block Wang Shi, and then Liu Bei will take the opportunity to enter Shu, which will be more difficult to deal with than that Zhang Lu. ”

"Now there is a great wealth in front of the foot - as long as the foot takes advantage of Guan Ping's attack on Hanzhong to cut off the back road, burn Guan Ping's boat with fire, and fight with Zhang Lu, Guan Ping will be defeated!"

"The prime minister has seen the loyalty and courage of the foot, and he must reward the foot, this matter is true, and I hope that the foot must not be shirked."

Shen Tan was stunned, his face full of disbelief.

Chen Qun said with a solemn face:

"Don't you believe me Chen Qun?"

"No, no, no!" He hurriedly waved his hand, "I have great respect for Chen Gong, how can I not believe it?" Chen Gong said to do it, I will do it! With Chen Gong's righteousness, is there still anyone in the world who doesn't believe that Chen Gong can't succeed? ”

"Don't gossip.

I Shen Tan is a member of the imperial court, and I am responsible for the thief for the imperial court, so I will lead my subordinates to meet Guan Ping, I don't believe that Guan Ping still has three heads and six arms! ”

Chen Qun breathed a sigh of relief.

He originally wanted to force Shen Tan to stay here, and when Guan Ping was fighting, Cao Cao estimated that he had already laid down Hanzhong, as long as Hanzhong did not fall into Guan Ping's hands, it was not bad.

I didn't expect this guy to be so easy to convince, in the end it was a group of thieves who were easy to deceive, let him fight with Guan Ping, although it was cheaper for Zhang Lu, but as long as Liu Bei's forces were not allowed to penetrate into Hanzhong, it was worth it.

The two of them were happy, Shen Tan hurriedly asked his younger brother Shen Yi to take Chen Qun to parade and prepare to go to the army, and when the two of them walked away, Shen Tan's face finally showed a look of relief.

He snorted coldly, pinched his chin and read slowly:

Guan Ping...... Well, Guan Ping. ”
