Zhao Yun has a talent for fighting, as well as loyalty, righteousness and benevolence, and holds an important position in Changshan Country at the age of a weak crown, which is already stronger than most military generals.

If the world is not chaotic, Zhao Yun will probably continue to accumulate experience and military exploits in Changshan Kingdom, accumulate thick and thin, and be promoted step by step, and it is not impossible to worship the general.

But alas.

Today's world has long become a stage for careerists.

Even a good general like Zhao Yun, who is brave and good at fighting and knows loyalty, righteousness and benevolence, will lose the opportunity to experience with time and turmoil, and his talent will be buried.

The growth of military generals needs to be polished.

Even if a talented military general is not trained and cannot advance to the general and handsome talent, his achievements can only be a miscellaneous general.

It can charge into battle and be fearless of life and death, but it is difficult to lead the army to fight and defeat the enemy.

Zheng Ping has known a truth since he was a child: read thousands of books, travel thousands of miles, get rid of dust in his chest, and camp in the natural hills and ravines.

As brave as Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, when Liu Bei was a Gao Tang lieutenant, he could still be chased and beaten by the Yellow Turban thieves.

The writing is as brilliant as You Heng, and when I first met Zheng, he was just a scholar who didn't care about dirty.

Talent can only prove the upper and lower limits of potential, and the opportunity to experience is the key to reaching the upper limit of potential.

Even if he is very talented and works hard, if he doesn't have the corresponding opportunity to train, he is just a group of Fang Zhongyong.

Zheng Ping has a heart for cultivating Zhao Yun, and also believes that Zhao Yun, who has been trained, will become a real general in the future.

Therefore, Zheng Ping recommended Zhao Yun to Liu Yu, so that Zhao Yun could get more opportunities for training under Liu Yu.

Similarly, when Zhao Yun hesitated, Zheng Ping would patiently admonish.

"No one cares about the opinion of a small lieutenant of Tsuneyama Province."

"If you are not Gongsun Zhan's cronies, how can you take charge of the military and carry out the responsibility of admonishing?"

"Those who have achieved great things, do not blind their eyes and see the general trend!"

Zhao Yun was silent.

These words impacted Zhao Yun's past cognition and concepts.

Seeing that Zhao Yun was silent, Zheng Ping didn't say much.

It takes time to change old perceptions.

If it weren't for Zheng Ping's sentence or two, Zhao Yun would easily agree.

"This matter is entrusted to Mr. Yuan Hao." Zheng Ping saluted Tian Feng and prepared to say goodbye.

Zheng Ping's truth, Zhao Yun is still difficult to digest for a while, but Tian Feng, a person who once served as a servant in Luoyang and has experienced the ups and downs of the Huan Sea, knows the truth very well.

Tian Feng stroked his short hair, his eyes blazing: "Zheng Beijia, you are so sure, I will agree?" ”

Zheng Ping chuckled: "Mr. Yuan Hao doesn't return to Changshan Country, isn't he just waiting for this opportunity?" ”

Tian Feng laughed: "Zheng Beijia's ability to recognize people's hearts is unparalleled in the world." ”

After a pause, Tian Feng looked like an oath: "Youzhou has my Tian Yuanhao here, Zheng Bei can rest assured." ”

Zheng Ping did not stay in Zhuocheng.

After meeting Tian Feng and Zhao Yun, he embarked on the journey back to Linzi City with Zhuge Liang.

"Brother, let's go back to Qingzhou? If General Gongsun and Da Sima clash again, and the elder brother is not there, wouldn't it be a failure? Zhuge Liang grabbed the reins with both hands and wrapped them around the saddle ring, and his little face was more puzzled.

Zheng Ping grabbed the reins with one hand, but his right hand shook the feather fan in a chic manner, and his eyes were relaxed: "The way of lobbying is to talk about a virtual reality." ”

"The more you care about success or failure, the easier it is to be spotted."

"There are no regrets, and the choice itself is forward!"

"Even if I stay in Zhuocheng, what can be changed will change, and what can't be changed will not change, so why should I stay in Zhuocheng?"

"If you have this time, it's better to go back to Linzi City as soon as possible to see if there will be new information coming!"

"If you want to observe the general trend of the world, you must grasp the changes in the general trend of the world as early as possible and as much as possible before your opponent, so as to plan and then move!"

Zhuge Liang seemed to understand whether he understood or not, and bowed his head and pondered.

This time he followed Zheng Ping to Youzhou, Zhuge Liang's little brain contained too much new knowledge, and it was difficult to understand it for a while.

Zheng Ping did not disturb Zhuge Liang, who lowered his head and pondered.

took Zhuge Liang to Youzhou, Zheng Ping also had the intention of cultivating.

A leaf is blind, and Mount Tai is not seen.

This is a taboo for scholars to study!

Although Liu Bei and Zheng Ping gave Zhuge Liang a more favorable learning environment, they also made Zhuge Liang less aware of following Zhuge Xuan's southward drift, and also less tenacious heart sharpened in the predicament.

Only by appropriately increasing Zhuge Liang's perception of this world, avoiding Zhuge Liang's arrogance and complacency, pursuing theory and detaching himself from reality, and sharpening himself with more difficulties, can Zhuge Liang truly become a talent.

Zheng Ping didn't want to let Zhuge Liang become a horse because of his own intervention, and finally evolved into "tears and slashing Zhuge with tears"!

Right Beiping.

Gongsun Chan got a secret letter from Gongsun Ji.

For those who also have the surname Gongsun, Gongsun Chan will often treat him as a brother.

Gongsun Ji was not very ambitious under Liu Yu, and when he met Gongsun Chan as a brother, he naturally favored Gongsun Chan in his heart.

Therefore, after hearing the news that Zheng Ping falsely claimed that the flattering villain was ready to slander Yuan Shu and wanted to get rid of Xian Yuqian with the hand of Gongsun Yue, Gongsun Ji sent the news to Youbeiping overnight.

As soon as he saw the contents of the secret letter, Gongsun Chan was so frightened that cold sweat flowed out.

"How could Zheng Xianmou know such a secret thing?"

Gongsun Chan is not stupid.

Zheng Ping, in front of Liu Yu and the civil and military affairs of Youzhou Mufu, made up a villain who flattered Yuan Shu, and then deduced that Gongsun Yue wanted to kill Xian Yuqian.

If you don't know the secret, how can you dare to make such an inference?

Soon, Gongsun Chan understood Zheng Ping's purpose.

This is Zheng Ping knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger!

If Gongsun Chan violated the agreement and refused to make peace with Liu Yu, then Gongsun Chan sent Gongsun Yue to collude with Yuan Shu to attack and kill Xian Yuqian, which would be ruthlessly announced by Zheng Ping.

At that time, the unreasonable Gongsun Chan will be condemned by everyone in Youzhou!

"It's so ruthless!"

"I didn't mention it in front of the general, but I deliberately mentioned it in front of Liu Yu's Youzhou Pastoral Mansion, which is forcing the general to make a choice."

Gongsun Chan took a deep breath and couldn't help but feel a little more jealous of Zheng Ping.

Thinking of this, Gongsun Chan hurriedly summoned Gongsun Fan and ordered him to send his cronies to Luyang in the starry night, and be sure to stop Gongsun Yue!

Gongsun Fan didn't expect the situation to become so serious: "Brother, the more people know about this matter, the more dangerous it is." The foolish brother went to Luyang in person, if Brother Yue had already made a move, I would bite it to death is a villain's slander. ”

"Brother go to Zhuocheng as soon as possible to make peace with Da Sima Yan, and quickly take over Changshan Country and Zhongshan Kingdom, with Changshan Kingdom, Zhongshan Country and Youbeiping in hand, even if Brother Yue really makes a move, my brother still has a chance to turn around."

Gongsun Zhan's eyes were ruthless: "If you go late, you must bite Yuan Shao's slander behind his back!" When necessary, you can make Brother Yue fake his death! ”

Gongsun Fan's heart sank, and he already understood Gongsun Zhan's intentions.

If only one is dead, it will naturally be difficult to explain.

But if Gongsun Yue is also "dead", then it will be true that Yuan Shao is behind his back.

When the time comes, Gongsun Chan can attack Yuan Shao in the name of revenge, killing two birds with one stone!

At this time, Liu Yu's envoy also arrived in Youbeiping.

Hearing that Liu Yu also sent a messenger south to Luyang, Gongsun Zhan did not dare to let Gongsun Fan stay, so he must arrive in Luyang before Liu Yu's messenger!

After deploying all this, Gongsun Zhan rode his horse to Zhuocheng to discuss with Liu Yu about the garrison of Changshan and Zhongshan.

Tobu Yang.

Cao Cao held a banquet in the mansion and entertained a special guest!

Xun Yu Xun Wenruo, who once served as the palace guard and was in charge of the emperor's pen, ink, silk and other things.

As early as when he was in Luoyang, Xun Yu had already met Cao Cao, and Cao Cao was serving as the military captain among the eight captains in the West Garden.

Xun Yu has also heard of Cao Cao's past name.

Although he was born in the eunuch party, Cao Cao never followed the eunuchs all the way, not only killed Jian Shuo's uncle to show that he drew a clear line with the eunuchs, but also made friends with Yuan Shao, Zhang Miao and other Qingliu scholars.

In the battle against Dong, when the heroes hesitated, Cao Cao marched westward alone.

Although he was defeated in Xingyang, this defeat did not erase Cao Cao's reputation, but made Cao Cao's image a true hero for the Han family in the eyes of some scholars.

Therefore, after Guo Jia recommended Cao Cao, Xun Yu came to Dongwuyang to investigate.

Xun Yu did not meet Cao Cao directly, but stayed in Dongwuyang for a period of time and learned about Cao Cao from the people of Dongwuyang.

Most of the scholars praised Cao Cao's feat of currying over Dong, but they were reluctant to defect after Cao Cao was a eunuch Cao Teng.

The eunuchs and the Qingliushi people have been fighting for many years, and their hostility is very serious.

But Xun Yu doesn't care about Cao Cao's background, in terms of background, Xun Yu is still the son-in-law of the eunuch.

However, neither Cao Cao nor Xun Yu could change this origin.

Cao Cao's father was a successor, and Xun Yu was only two years old when he became the eunuch's son-in-law.

Because of the criticism he has received since childhood, Xun Yu is more willing to understand the advantages of Cao Cao outside of his background.

After several temptations, Xun Yu delivered a letter of worship to Cao Cao.

After getting Xun Yu's worship post, Cao Cao was flattered, and pulled Bao Xin to ask more than ten times in half a day, only then did he determine that it was Yingchuan Xun's Junjie who delivered the worship post, and Xun Yu was called Wang Zuozhicai by Nanyang celebrity He Hao!

Because Cao Cao's father Cao Song was a big corrupt official, in order to avoid Cao Song's stigma from affecting himself.

Cao Cao has always been thrifty, he doesn't use silk and satin, he doesn't use gold and jade treasures when he drinks wine, and he eats corn and rice on weekdays without fish and meat, and it is difficult for people who don't know each other to imagine that the thrifty Cao Cao will be the eldest son of the corrupt official Cao Song!

Due to Xun Yu's sudden visit, Cao Cao saw that there was no fish in the house, so he personally went to the river to catch a few fish and sell wine to entertain Xun Yu.

Looking at the fish and meat on his table and the wild vegetables and corn rice on Cao Cao's table, Xun Yu was shocked.

But Xun Yu only talked about the old things with Cao Cao at the banquet, and did not show any intention of contribution, which made Cao Cao's original expectation more apprehensive and disappointed.

After the banquet, Cao Cao personally sent Xun Yu out of the mansion.

Looking at Xun Yu, who was riding his horse and leaving directly, Cao Cao felt lonely: "Yuncheng, we are still too poor." ”

Bao Xin helplessly spread his hands: "Meng De, who made you have to make trouble with your uncle?" If we had the support of my uncle's family, we would not have to go to the river to catch fish even for a banquet. ”

Cao Cao's eyes were fine: "My father would rather take all the money to Xuzhou than subsidize me for half a cent." He only thinks about how to keep the hundreds of carts of money, where will he take care of the world's major affairs? ”

Just when Cao Cao and Bao Xin shook their heads and sighed, Xun Yu suddenly rode back on his horse, but there was a wild goose hanging on the saddle: "When I visited General Cao, Yu did not prepare a gift, which was quite rude." ”

"I don't know if the chef in General Cao's mansion can be scorched?"

Wild goose.

It is one of the gifts given by officials when they visit each other.

The characteristic of wild geese is "flying in rows, stopping in columns", which means abiding by rules and being able to be self-disciplined.

It symbolizes that when the scholars serve in the Quartet, they have good character and are cautious and independent.

Xun Yu gave a wild goose as a gift, which is a praise for Cao Cao's thrifty character.

Cao Cao was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly replied: "Mr. Wen Ruo is serious!" Cao will also know the art of roasting, and I hope Mr. Wenruo will not dislike it. ”

Xun Yu laughed, handed the wild goose in his hand to Cao Cao, and entered Cao Cao's mansion again.

Cao Cao was originally a man in the army, and he was not hypocritical, so he immediately rolled up his sleeves, skillfully plucked the wild geese, and lit a bonfire in the courtyard.

"Mr. Wenruo, why did you go and come back?" Cao Cao distributed the roasted wild goose meat to Xun Yu and approached to ask.

Xun Yu said frankly: "If the wise man wants to seek the master, he naturally has to be cautious. ”

"When I first met General Cao, Yu was deliberately rude, just to find out if General Cao had the capacity to accommodate people."

"Returning with a goose is for Yu Fangcai's rudeness, and I apologize to General Cao."

Cao Cao was shocked and laughed: "Cao lacks everything, but this instrument is not lacking!" Mr. Wen Ruo is a famous person in the world, and it is already Cao's honor to condescend to see Cao, so how can he blame him for being rude? ”

The more Xun Yu chatted with Cao Cao, the more speculative he became.

Both of them used to be court officials in Luoyang, and they were both dissatisfied with Dong Zhuo's dictatorship and resigned, which also had a lot of common words between them.

"Mr. Wenruo, Dong Zhuowei is in the world, I have the heart to please the thief, but I have no power to please the thief. I wonder if Mr. Wen Ruo has any good advice for me? Cao Cao humbly asked.

Xun Yu shook his head and said: "Dong Zhuo is brutal, which has disgusted the world, it seems to be majestic in the world, but in fact, he is strong on the outside and strong in the middle. ”

"It won't be long before Dong Zhuo will be defeated and retreat to Chang'an!"

"However, once Dong Zhuo is defeated and retreats to Chang'an, he will never have the heart to go east again."

"The cruel will surely die violently because of the trouble, and will not do anything more."

"What General Cao should be more concerned about is whether the situation in the Kanto region will evolve into chaos at the end of Qin."

"Yuan Shaoyu deceived Gongsun Zan to steal Jizhou, which has already planted the source of trouble in Jizhou."

"If General Cao wants to achieve his great ambitions, he can't stay here in Dongwuyang anymore."

Cao Cao got up abruptly and bowed to Xun Yu: "Cao is difficult to understand the general trend, please give advice to Mr. Wen Ruo!" ”

Xun Yu looked at the bonfire in front of him, remembered the war-torn Yingchuan, and slowly spoke: "If General Cao wants to achieve a great cause, the only way to gain a foothold in Yingchuan is to take advantage of it first!" ”
