Chapter 014: I'm Not Drunk
Hao Meng said to him: "Since Yuan Shu wants to Tulu Bu, it is impossible to only win over the general, Han Yin will go to Chen Gong tonight, and he must also discuss this matter, and he will be drunk with Long Xiang's clichés, first understand the reality of Huainan, and then find Chen Gong to sum up, if it is not foolproof, Ben will not take risks easily." ”
"That's fine, I'm afraid that Long Xiang will be humble and won't be able to ask for useful news." Cao Xuan nodded slightly.
Hao Meng sneered: "Seeing the subtleties may not be useless. ”
"The last general still feels that the risk is too great, and if we fail, we will all die and have no place to bury..."
Hao Meng raised his eyes, and the cold light in his eyes flashed, "The so-called wealth is in danger, but I will be responsible for the defense of Xiapi City, and it may not be possible to act in a dangerous way, Lu Bu took Cao Cao's Yanzhou before, and then Liu Bei's Xuzhou, which time is not the inside and outside?" It's not a big problem..."
"Oh..."Cao Xing nodded thoughtfully.
Hao Meng took the opportunity to pat him on the shoulder and said: "Lu Bu has a despicable temperament, you have no self-understanding, and when you marry a beautiful wife and concubine and go home, I am afraid that you will react more than me." ”
"Hey, it is said that it is a border habit, which I learned from the Saiwaihu people, I heard that when we first came to Xuzhou, General Lu invited Liu Bei to sit on Mrs. Yan's bed, and asked Mrs. Yan to take care of it herself..."
Before Cao Xing finished speaking, Hao Meng interrupted angrily: "Liu Xuande is also from the borderlands, why did he refuse on the spot?" Lu Bu likes to follow this set of border vices, and he goes to play with Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, and he will be a Hanoi person, a Hanoi person! ”
Hao Meng's anger at this time, although Cao Xuan didn't feel it personally, he had heard it in private, and knew that the 'bitter master' was not Hao Meng alone, so he didn't continue to persuade him. ("Heroes" contains 'Taizu said: "Qing betrays his wife and loves the generals' wives, why is it thick?") "Bumeran. ' )
The two of them made up their minds to sort out their emotions and strode to the front hall to see Long Xiang and Feng Zhong.
After a simple greeting, Hao Meng and Cao Xing began to cooperate to persuade wine.
The so-called soldier against soldier, general against general, Cao Xing called a group of soldiers to surround Feng Zhong to eat wine, and let Hao Meng, who had an excellent amount of alcohol, face Long Xiang alone.
Long Xiang couldn't stop Hao Meng's 'enthusiasm', and pretended to be confused after a few big cups in a row, Hao Meng saw him blinking constantly, and felt that the time was ripe for clichés.
"Huh? Is this piece of meat sticky on the side? Why can't you pick it up..."Long Xiang shook his head and deliberately held the chopsticks, clamping the copper tripod side ear of the dish, and it was in vain to clamp it several times.
Seeing this, Hao Meng couldn't help but smile, raised his glass and walked to Long Xiang's table, helped him put the Dingzhong meat into the dinner plate, and asked meaningfully: "General Long really doesn't drink deeply, he actually showed his drunkenness so quickly, hurry up and eat some sauce meat to press his stomach." ”
Long Xiang put his hands on the table, shook his head violently, suddenly gave up the chopsticks and chopsticks and started directly, grabbed the sauce meat and chewed it in his mouth, and muttered: "I'm not drunk, I'm really not drunk..."
"How does our wine and meat taste in Xuzhou?" Hao Meng whispered tentatively.
"The sauce meat is very fragrant, I haven't tasted it for a long time..."Long Xiang directly stretched out his hand to Dingzhong, and the gobbling up looked completely disregarding the so-called Sven.
Hao Meng frowned suspiciously, and asked curiously: "The general is from Shouchun, Dacheng, and the conditions should be better than Xiapi, I don't know how the food in your army is?" ”
"Military meals? It's brown rice every day, so you can eat it for seven minutes..."Long Xiang shook his head disapprerovingly.
Hao Meng was stunned when he heard this, and said in his heart that Yuan Shu, who was full of soldiers, why did he treat soldiers so harshly? He thought for a while and asked: "General Long was ordered to send an envoy to Xuzhou, and if he can take on such a heavy responsibility, he must be General Yuan's right-hand man, I don't know what position he is in now?" ”
"What's the job? Inheriting his father's shadow and serving as Quhou..."Long Xiang shook his head, his tone was mixed with unwillingness, and he suddenly lowered his head in the middle of speaking, and added mysteriously: "The general doesn't know anything, and the contemptible person will be promoted soon, Mr. Han has promised to be in the future, and Hui Shouchun will recommend me as the military Sima, and when I introduced it to General Lu in the afternoon, my identity was already Sima of another department." ”
"Really? It's really young and promising..."Hao Meng stroked his beard with a frown.
"In the Huainan realm, no matter how capable you are, it is useless, you must be born well to be promoted, or the lord and close ministers can be reused, if the background is too low, just like my father... Woo... Woo... Woo..."Long Xiang finished talking to himself, and actually burst into tears.
"General Long, what kind of system is this..."Hao Meng was instantly at a loss.
Feng Zhong, who was surrounded next to him to persuade him to drink, heard Long Xiang's cry like thunder, he pushed aside Cao Xuan and others to find him, held the crumbling Long Xiang, and called in a low voice: "General... General..."
Long Xiang cried a few times, then closed his eyes and breathed heavily, completely drunk.
Hao Meng was very embarrassed when he saw this, looked at Feng Zhong and smiled: "General Long's alcohol is really..."
"Since my general has been drunk, the general will have to take him back to the post house, please forgive General Hao." After Feng Zhong clasped his fists and saluted, he didn't wait for Hao Meng's consent, and was about to leave with Long Xiang on his back.
Seeing this, Hao Meng motioned to Cao Xuan and said, "General Feng didn't know the way when he first came to Xiapi, so let Vice General Cao accompany him." ”
"Thank you, General." Feng Zhong nodded in agreement.
Cao Xuan asked his entourage to bring a stretcher and carried Long Xiang back to the post house in the moonlight, and he asked Feng Zhong about Long Yuan on the way.
Feng Zhong respected Long Yuan's self-sacrifice spirit, and felt that it was not a military secret, so he told the deeds of his comrades in front of Cao Xing, and the other party sighed.
After settling the 'drunk' Long Xiang at the post station, Cao Xing returned to Hao Meng after a short stay.
As soon as the two met, Hao Meng anxiously asked, "What's the situation?" ”
"That Long Xiang has already fallen asleep, and he has also received circumstantial evidence from the post station soldiers, this person is indeed shallow in drinking, did the general ask what happened just now?" Cao asked rhetorically.
Hao Meng shook his head slightly, "This guy is too drunk too fast, and he only asks some superficial answers." ”
Cao Xing suddenly said: "The general once said that he knew slightly, and the last general asked Feng Zhong on the road, and learned that Long Yuan, the father of Long Xiang, in order to cover the escape of Yuan Shu's main force, led the department to die after being broken, and Long Yuan became a lieutenant with military merits, but Long Xiang only attacked a Qu Hou, and this matter is chilling to think about..."
Hao Meng pinched his chin and muttered, "No wonder Long Xiang lost his temper just now..."
"After Yuan Shu treats his loyal ministers so poorly, I don't know how sincere he is to you..."
Hao Meng thought back to what Long Xiang had just said, thinking that he was not from a famous family, and he might not be able to be reused if he served Yuan Shu, but he hated Lu Bu quite a lot, and now there was no choice for him.
"The direction of Deputy General Cao, the general has not decided to rebel yet, go back and listen to Chen Gong's opinion, this kind of head-killing thing can't let our family take risks." Hao Meng looked out the window with a cold face, the moonlight shone on his cold face, like hatred This kind of emotion has been accumulated for a long time, and he must vent it early, but as long as Chen Gong can work together, he is willing to let it out.
Cao Xuan said to himself beside him: "Chen Gong is scheming, can he be calculated by Yuan Shu?" ”
