Chapter 45: Let's borrow it without violating morality

It is said that Liu Bei and Zhao Chen summed up behind the screen, and after they came out, they looked distressed, no matter how everyone asked him, they just didn't say anything, just looked at Tai Shici and Sun Shao.

Tai Shi Ci is a loyal and righteous person, and since he has found out that Liu Bei is troubled, he naturally wants to ask clearly.

He stepped forward and said, "Liu Yuanjun can afford to be kind, so he sent people from hundreds of miles to invite us to enjoy the moon together." Today, since you know that you have something on your heart, and that you have a place where you can be merciful, let you open your mouth. ”

Zhao Chen saw that the atmosphere was almost over, so he stepped forward and pushed aside the crowd.

"Lord, you are also a good person, it is better to let the dust say."

Liu Bei nodded pretendedly.

Zhao Chen explained the reason for the incident: "I just received the news that Cao Cao of Yanzhou raised 100,000 troops and went down, and now he has broken Xiaopei, and the goal is very clear, that is, to swallow Xuzhou." The families of the lord and the soldiers are still in Xiapi, and our army has just experienced a major war, and it has not been completely rectified, the grain and grass are insufficient, and the army is tired, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist Cao's army. ”

Before Zhao Chen finished speaking, Zhang Fei jumped up.

"Strategist, what are you talking about! As long as you're here, I'm not afraid of Cao Cao! At the beginning, the three thousand remnants were never afraid of Ji Ling's 30,000 army, and today they are afraid that he will not succeed Cao Cao. ”

Guan Yu also said: "The military advisor doesn't have to worry, we all believe in the military advisor, and we will definitely be able to come up with a strange plan to break the Cao army." ”

Zhao Chen looked at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's categorical response, and smiled knowingly.

With the habits of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, even if thousands of troops come, they don't pay attention to them.

Zhang Fei was in front of the Yang Bridge and drank Cao Cao's thousands of men and horses, not afraid at all.

Guan Yu passed five levels and killed six generals, one person and one horse, invincible.

Are they afraid? There will be a lot of noise to meet the enemy.

The more fierce they quarreled, the more satisfied Zhao Chen was.

That's what he wanted.

Facing Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's scorching eyes, Zhao Chen pretended to be helpless and shook his head: "Chen knows that the two generals have the courage of ten thousand people, and taking the head of the general is to explore the bag and take things, but even if the two of them are brave, even if they have thousands of plans, they can only lead the two people." Our army does not have enough leading generals, how can we use our strategy to lead the army to defeat Cao Cao? ”

As soon as Zhao Chen's words came out, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei could only glance at each other and stare dryly.

The crowd also fell silent, helpless.

Seeing this, Zhao Chen immediately walked up to Tai Shici and said, "General Ziyi is a hero in the world, the most loyal, and brave. Chen had a reluctant request, and asked General Ziyi to consider it. ”

Tai Shi Ci didn't know why, after all, Cao Cao's army came to attack Xuzhou, and it had nothing to do with him.

Zhao Chen asked his opinion in front of everyone, but he didn't know what his intentions were.

"Mr. Houde, please speak, as long as it is Ci can do it, it is incumbent."

"Good! General Ziyi is righteous, listen to Chen's words! ”

"Cao Cao's tiger is located in Yanzhou, and his subordinates Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, etc. are all capable people, Cao Ren, Xiahou Xuan, Xiahou Yuan, Dian Wei, etc. are all fierce generals, and now they have raised 100,000 troops to attack Pi. I Guan Lu Bu is not Cao Cao's opponent, and in the near future, he will definitely be broken by Cao Cao. ”

"Who is Cao Cao, it is Cao thief! After taking Pi, he must go south to take Guangling, and then go south to Yangzhou, Jingzhou and other places. Our lord Liu Xuande was determined to rejuvenate the Han dynasty and would never allow Cao thieves to do this, so he decided to lead the army north, but there were not enough generals to lead the army, which was not enough to resist Cao Cao. Chen wanted to ask General Ziyi to join our army to go north to fight Cao Cao, but I don't know what the general wants? ”

When Tai Shici heard this, he was quite excited in his heart.

When he agreed with Liu Bei to attack Sun Ce before, he already admired Liu Bei very much, and Zhao Chen also sent him an invitation to join Liu Bei's account.

Helplessly, because of being a minister, changing camps at will is not in line with Taishi Ci's loyalty, and after hesitation, he still chose to return to Liu Xuan's Qu'a.

Now that Zhao Chen has issued an invitation again, Tai Shici does have the intention to go north together, but ......

"Mr. Houde, to make the gentleman benevolent and righteous, is the Ming Jun, but to give up Liu Zhengli and put into the account of the envoy, it is against the way of loyalty and righteousness, and this matter is difficult to forgive."

Zhao Chen hurriedly denied: "General Ziyi misunderstood, Chen didn't want the general to be put into my lord's account." ”

"What does that gentleman mean?"

"I just want to ask General Ziyi to help and lead the army north to fight Cao Cao together."

"This ......"

"Chen knows that General Ziyi can't let go of your lord Liu Zhengli, but Chen's move is also for Yangzhou Liu Zhengli."

Tai Shici looked at Zhao Chen, his eyes full of doubts.

"Please also ask Mr. Houde for advice."

"If Cao Cao takes Xiapi, the momentum will be even greater, and then he goes south to take Guangling County, can Liu Zhengli, who is in Qu'a, still live in peace? Such a cold truth, General Ziyi should be able to understand, and Liu Zhengli should also be able to understand. ”

Tai Shi Ci suddenly realized, thought for a moment and replied: "Having said that, it's just that if Ci follows Liu Yuanjun north without authorization, my lord will inevitably have ideas. ”

When Zhao Chen heard this, he knew that Tai Shici had acquiesced in this matter in his heart, but it was difficult for Liu Xiang to explain.

He explained: "General Ziyi doesn't have to worry, my lord's guild will repair a letter, explaining that the reason is to borrow the general temporarily, and when he returns from the victory in the north, General Ziyi can return to Qu'a with peace of mind." What does the general think? ”

After speaking, Zhao Chen glanced at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

The two comprehended and persuaded Tai Shici together.

"This ...... In this case, if Ci shirks again, it will not be reasonable and reasonable. Liu envoy Jun and Ci were willing to go north with the army to fight against Cao Cao. ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he was overjoyed, and immediately held Tai Shici's hand and said: "The general's righteousness is the blessing of the people of Xuzhou, and it is also the blessing of preparation!" ”

Tai Shi Ci was quite moved when he saw Liu Bei's excitement.

"Make the king righteous, saying this makes Ci feel a little guilty."

"Alas, why is General Ziyi guilty, I thank General Ziyi for the people of Xuzhou."

Liu Bei pulled Tai Shici to his side and cast an admiring look at Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen smiled slightly, the way to survive in troubled times is naturally people-oriented, borrowing generals from generals, has always been only borrowed and not repaid, just like Sun Ce asked Yuan Shu to ask for the four generals of Sun Jian's old department, and Liu Bei asked Gongsun Zan for Zhao Yun, all of which became his own by borrowing.

Besides, according to the historical process, Liu Miao will return to the west next year, and after repelling Cao Cao, it will drag on for one, two, three or four months, Tai Shici is the ownerless general, this is not Liu Bei's?

Sun Shao on the side watched the tacit cooperation between Zhao Chen and Liu Bei, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

"What a double show!"

"As the saying goes, the whole world is turbid, I am alone, everyone is drunk and I am sober, and this little trick of dust naturally can't hide from Mr. Changxu's eyes."

Zhao Chen slowly walked up to Sun Shao and saluted.

Sun Shao replied: "Since General Ziyi said goodbye last time, he has long belonged to Liu Yuanjun, and now it is good, Mr. Houde has given General Ziyi a bright and righteous path." ”

"Sir, my lord has always been eager to seek talents, and he does not beat around the bush. After our army went north, the two major places of Guangling and Huaiyin needed to be guarded by soldiers and ministers, and Guangling City had been arranged, but Huaiyin City still had no suitable candidates. With Mr. Changxu's talent, it is useless to defend Huaiyin, I wonder if Mr. Changxu can help our army? ”

Sun Shao's face did not change, and said: "Huaiyin City is the supply route to the north, which is very important, and breaking Huaiyin is cutting off the retreat of the army." Mr. Houde dares to put this important city in the hands of an outsider? ”

Zhao Chen said with a smile: "Everyone in the world knows that Mr. Changxu is loyal, and what he should do will be done." Besides, Chen thinks that Mr. Changxu is his own person, so how can outsiders say it? ”

When Sun Shao heard this, he laughed.

"In that case, I will work with General Ziyi to help Liu Zhijun go north."

Zhao Chen immediately thanked him: "Mr. Changxu is righteous, I thank Mr. for my father-in-law." ”

It is easy to negotiate with smart people, you can understand the meaning in three or two sentences, and there is no need to point out between words.

Zhao Chen only needed to say a few good words according to Sun Shao's meaning, and everything fell into place.

It is that the division has not yet been released, and two generals will be accepted first!
