Chapter 57: Cao Ying's top strategist group, talking about Chen Mu
Everyone had their own suspicions in their hearts, but Cao Cao had already confirmed it.
Huo Jun's surrender was a true temperament, not Zhuge treachery.
With this loyal and brave person, Cao Cao was very relieved.
Like Huo Jun, a general who chose to join Cao Ying in order to avenge someone, Cao Cao saw not a lot.
Such generals are the most useful, and they point to wherever they are.
It's hard to be an arrogant soldier until you get revenge.
In addition, Huo Jun is such a loyal and brave person.
Before completely destroying Liu Bei, it was impossible for Huo Jun to give birth to two hearts.
However, when he came to surrender to Cheng, the official position he was given was low, and Huo Jun was not angry.
The official position given is high, and the soldiers under his command are uneven.
After thinking about it, Cao Cao finally decided that according to the estimation in his heart, he would give him the title of deputy general for the time being.
He waved his hand and said loudly:
"It's very gratifying to have this loyal and brave tiger general."
"Reading that you are loyal and brave, Lone will make you a military Sima, receive the rank of deputy general, and assist Wenpin."
"How do you think it?"
Although Cao Cao is a question, his words are full of meaning that cannot be disobeyed.
Huo Jun was proud in his heart, I surrendered to you Cao Cao in order to avenge the military advisor.
Jun Sima, under the captain, commanded 400 soldiers and horses.
I think Zhang He was the post of military Sima back then.
It is quite reasonable to be awarded the title of military Sima and receive the rank of deputy general.
Huo Jun bowed and bowed, and immediately thanked him:
"Thank you for your great grace!"
He got down on one knee and saluted again.
Cao Cao waved his hand and said to the generals:
"You take Huo Jun down to familiarize yourself with the military system."
The generals understood that the prime minister had something important to discuss with the strategists.
"Huo Jun, we will be colleagues in the future, and I am very curious about the Chen Mujun division you said."
Zhang Liao and Cao Zhi led Huo Jun out of the mansion one after another.
After Huo Jun left, Cao Cao withdrew the smile on his face.
His eyes were like eagles, and he glanced at several of his advisors.
Dusting off his body, he whispered:
"Let's talk about it, you have each had your own thoughts since just now, and now that Huo Jun has retreated, you can speak freely."
The prime minister is really the prime minister, with six eyes and ears to listen to all directions.
While observing Huo Jun, he did not forget to observe the reactions of these advisers at the same time.
Regarding this "Chen Mu" who had made him suffer a big loss, these strategists in front of him must have their own opinions.
Hearing what the prime minister said, Xun Yu was the first to speak.
He grinned and spoke:
"Sure enough, I can't hide it from the prime minister."
"I think that what Huo Jun said should be very true, and there is no half-truth."
"Besides, if Zhuge is treacherous, he shouldn't do such a self-destructive thing as burning grain and grass."
"Minister......
However, Xun You was halfway through his words when he was interrupted by Cao Cao shaking his head.
He shook his head lightly and said in a deep voice:
"It's not Huo Jun who is asking."
"What Gu asked was that Chen Muke was still alive."
When the word "alive" came out of Cao Cao's mouth.
Everyone seemed to hear the roar of the dragon and the roar of the tiger, and the roar of the mountain eagle.
A few people know that the prime minister is very serious.
The next answer, no jokes, no foolishness!
If it's wrong, it's life.
Xun You's forehead was sweaty, he took a deep breath to calm his mind, and said:
"I think it's hard to live!"
"Since Liu Bei's army left, to the north is our army, and to the south is the Yangtze River moat."
"Even if you don't meet a soldier, there are still bandits around."
"Now that the war is in chaos, it is very difficult for a homeless person to live."
"Even if you don't die, you're dying."
Xun You's words are not unreasonable.
In the era of war, soldiers, wars, ruffians, bandits, etc.
Without the endorsement of family background, it is difficult for a white coat to move an inch.
Xun You's words made Cao Cao groan for a long time.
Although reason and reality told him that Chen Mujiu died for the rest of his life, there was no possibility of survival.
But the strong feeling in his heart told him that Chen Mu was still alive.
Such an amazing talent should not just disappear in the chaos of war.
After pondering for a long time, Cao Cao shook his head and sighed:
"Thinking about that Chen Mu, he once used the golden cicada to get out of the shell to trap my 50,000 elite soldiers. Raided Xuzhou, beheaded Che Xuan, and captured 80,000 defenders. ”
"It's a pity that such a talented person died!"
"If you don't die, use it for me...... Why worry about the uncertain world? Koto does not exclude? ”
Listening to Boss Cao's emotion, all the advisers lowered their heads.
The prime minister has many advisers in hand, but he still sighs with such emotion.
It shows that the prime minister feels that the current advisers are not enough, and he has not come up with a good plan.
This is a dereliction of duty on the part of these advisers.
Jia Xu, who had not said a word, sat in the corner.
His brow furrowed, as if he was thinking about something.
Cao Cao was puzzled in his heart, and he asked by name:
"Wenhe, what do you think?"
was asked by name, Jia Xu was stunned for a moment, and then gave up his hand and told all the doubts in his heart:
"Prime Minister, the minister is puzzled."
"In order to get the support of the Jingzhou scholars, Liu Bei made Zhuge Liang the chief military advisor and replaced Chen Mu, which is understandable."
"But why did you drive Chen Mu away afterwards?"
"Could it be that Liu Bei doesn't know how much hidden danger this move will leave behind?"
"Can't there be two strategists in an army?"
When Jia Xu's voice fell, Xun You, Chen Qun and others all frowned lightly and nodded slowly.
The same question is in their minds.
Cao Cao smiled lightly when he heard this, and said:
"What's the problem?"
"If you call a man of white body, above you? Are you willing? ”
Thinking carefully about Cao Cao's words, several people looked at each other, and they all saw the unwillingness in each other's eyes.
A mere person with a white body, who has no teacher, how can he be in the head of a person like us who has read the scriptures of the world?
Cao Cao's words continued:
"It's not that Liu Bei drove away Chen Mu, it's that the Jingzhou Shi clan can't tolerate a person with a white body, and they can't tolerate him Chen Mu being in a high position."
"However, Liu Bei can really drive out Chen Mu."
"If Chen Mu really dies in the chaos, he Liu Bei is the culprit!"
"I think that Liu Bei has always been famous for the word 'benevolence and righteousness'."
"Now, I have done such an unjust thing as driving away Chen Mu."
"It seems that in order to get the assistance of the Jingzhou Shi clan, Liu Bei is really forced to do so."
"However, is Chen Mu really dead? How does Lone feel, such a talented person will be able to meet the source, how can he die! ”
When others were talking about Chen Mu.
Xu Chu looked at the food on the table and remembered his husband.
Hurry up and visit Mr. to see if Mr. can find Chen Mu for the lord.
Xu Chu is too simple, and he has never asked Chen Mu's name.
He didn't think too much about it, he just felt that Mr. was amazing.
……
Just when Cao Cao and many strategists were talking about Chen Mu.
In the small courtyard where Chen Mu lived, he was holding his hand to his chin, pondering the way out in the future.
Although it is comfortable to live in this Cao camp, there is wine and meat to eat every day, and there are two beauties to accompany him.
But who knows how long these days will last?
Chen Mu still wanted to find an opportunity to infiltrate Xudu, and some other cities and counties close to the Central Plains.
If nothing else, at least stable.
Buy some land, ask for a wife, raise thirty or fifty households, and hire a dozen tenants to farm for yourself.
Isn't the day of the rich man comfortable and beautiful?
As for Mrs. Mi and Mrs. Gan.
Chen Mu turned his head to look at the two beautiful ladies, thoughtful.
Just when Chen Mu was imagining a better future.
A rough voice sounded from outside the courtyard gate.
You don't have to guess to know that Xu Chu must be here.
