Chapter 134: Longyang's goodness, broken sleeves
Before Yang Ling left Jingzhou, he told Cai Yu that when Liu Biao sent people to Wancheng in the future, he must strongly recommend Cai Mao as the main general.
The reason is simple.
Cai Mao and Cai Yu are sisters and brothers, and they are greedy for money.
If he leads the troops, Yang Ling can take Wancheng without much effort.
It's just that I didn't expect that Liu Biao would send his nephew Liu Pan to come with him.
"Why did Liu Biao send Liu Pan to serve as your deputy general of General Deju, is he suspicious of you?"
Yang Ling said with a look of surprise.
"After all, it's still your pot, sir."
Cai Mao said helplessly,
"It was you who asked Huang Zhong to accompany him by name, but the state pastor simply let Liu Pan go with him."
Get.
It turned out to be their own reasons.
Yang Ling suddenly couldn't cry or laugh.
He had previously written a letter to Cai Yu, wanting Huang Zhong to come to Wancheng with Cai Mao, in order to win him over.
I didn't expect it to happen.
"The general relaxes, even if there is one more Liu Pan, there will be no big problem."
Yang Ling smiled, took out a box from the side, and opened the lid of the box.
I saw that the inside was golden and full of jewels!
Cai Mao almost didn't look straight at her eyes!
"These are all greetings to the general."
Yang Ling handed over the box with a smile.
Cai Mao didn't say anything polite to him, just hugged him in his arms, patted his chest and said,
"Sir, don't worry, I will cooperate as you ask me to cooperate."
Yang Ling pursed his lips.
What an eye-catcher.
However, if Cai Mao wasn't such a person, he wouldn't have been able to take Wancheng easily.
That's fine.
Think of it as a dowry for Cai Yu.
Yang Ling thought for a moment and said in a low voice,
"If Liu Pan is killed, what do you think?"
Cai Mao was taken aback, and hurriedly waved her hand and said,
"This ...... This is not appropriate, how should I report to the state pastor when I go back? ”
"General Deju, don't worry, listen to me come slowly......"
Yang Ling said his thoughts one by one,
"What does the general think?"
"This ......"
Cai Mao still hesitated.
After all, Liu Pan is Liu Biao's nephew, and if you really kill him, the risk is really big!
Seeing this, Yang Ling said with a smile,
"General Deju, after all, we are a family. If Gong Cao takes Wancheng, he will not treat you badly. ”
"Besides, after Liu Pan dies, you can annex his soldiers and horses!"
Cai Mao looked at the treasures in the box, and then thought about Yang Ling's words, and finally gritted his teeth and nodded,
"Okay, just do as you say!"
"That's great!"
Yang Ling was very pleased.
After the two exchanged pleasantries, Cai Mao got up and left.
Yang Ling was just about to go to Cao Ang and tell him what he had talked to Cai Mao, but he heard an old voice full of energy sounding outside the courtyard,
"The last general, Huang Zhong, ask to see Mr. Chen Jinnan!"
Huang Zhong is here?
Yang Ling's heart moved, then he got up and walked out, opening the courtyard door.
"After separating from General Huang a few days ago, I was also very concerned about the old general, but I didn't expect the old general to come to visit."
He said and warmly welcomed Huang Zhong in.
The last time the two sides separated, Yang Ling said that the two would meet again soon, but Huang Zhong didn't believe it at the time.
Unexpectedly, less than half a month later, the two met again.
"How did Sir find out that we would meet again?"
Huang Zhong couldn't help but be curious.
Nonsense, my job transfer was all arranged by me, can I not know?
Yang Ling just smiled and didn't explain.
Seeing this, Huang Zhong no longer chased and asked, but pondered for a moment and directly explained his intentions.
"Last time, Mr. said that there was a way to cure the dog's disease, but I don't know how?"
Sure enough, just like in history, Huang Zhong, who has a son from an old age, attaches great importance to his only son Huang Xu!
In this way, it shouldn't be a problem for me to win him over.
Yang Ling didn't answer directly, but chuckled and said,
"I wonder if the old general has heard a saying that there is no free lunch in the world?"
Huang Zhong naturally hadn't heard of this sentence, but he understood Yang Ling's meaning at once.
"If the gentleman wants money, even if the price is yes, the old man will smash the pot and sell the iron, and he will also make it up for the gentleman."
"Definitely! I don't want money. ”
Yang Ling shook his head.
"What's that?"
"What I want, far away, close at hand."
Yang Ling said, his eyes falling on Huang Zhong.
When Huang Zhong heard this, he was stunned,
"Me?"
"Yes, all I want is you, general!"
"This ...... This ......"
Huang Zhong was silent for a long time, and his old face was red,
"Sir, the old man is too old to do it. Why don't I go back and find a few handsome young people and send them to my husband? ”
"The old general misunderstood!"
Yang Ling couldn't laugh or cry, and hurriedly explained,
"I want you to come over and serve Cao Gong!"
"I see!"
Huang Zhong was also relieved!
Although he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he had also heard that many dignitaries and nobles had the habit of Longyang and broken sleeves!
He listened to Yang Ling say so ambiguously, only when Yang Ling was also that kind of person, and he had a heavier taste, and he liked a lot of people of his age.
Fortunately, it was a misunderstanding!
"What does the old general think?"
Yang Ling asked with a smile.
Huang Zhong shook his head and smiled bitterly,
"I'm afraid that my general will not let me go."
He now belongs to Liu Pan's account, Liu Pan admires him quite much, and will never let him go to Cao Cao.
"It's easy to say, wrap it up on me!"
Yang Ling patted his chest in response.
After a while, Liu Pan will be a dead man, so there is no need to worry about it at all.
A look of hesitation appeared on Huang Zhong's face, and he couldn't help but say,
"Why would the gentleman make such a request?"
"It's very simple, admire the bravery of the old general! The old general is about to turn half a hundred years old, is he only willing to serve under Liu Pan and do nothing, but is not willing to make meritorious contributions and make great achievements? ”
Yang Ling persuaded.
Due to factors such as disease, war, and famine, the ancients did not live long.
For example, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the average life expectancy of people was only 22 years.
Huang Zhong will be fifty years old soon, and he will be considered in the prime of life in the future, but he is already an old man in the current world!
After listening to Yang Ling's words, although Huang Zhong was silent, his eyes flickered and his expression was complicated.
He has been practicing martial arts diligently since he was a child, and naturally he is making contributions!
Yang Ling saw that Huang Zhong was a little moved, and continued to smile,
"Presumably the old general has also heard that Cao Gong is thirsty for talent, right? With your ability, as long as you go to run, you will definitely be reused! ”
In fact, for Huang Zhong, whether it is loyal to Liu Biao or Cao Cao, it is actually the same.
Although Cao Cao's reputation is a little worse, after all, he welcomes the Son of Heaven and represents the orthodoxy of the imperial court.
If it is really as Yang Ling said, if he goes to the past, not only can he be reused, but his son's illness can also be cured!
Thinking of this, Huang Zhong no longer hesitated, and nodded heavily,
"Okay, the old man promises sir!"
When Yang Ling heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed!
Pulling Huang Zhong over, the five tiger generals did not say anything, and even dug the corner of the big-eared thief in advance.
It's so beautiful!
