Xiahou Dun was sleeping sweetly, and the guard suddenly reported that it was Chen Gong visiting.

When he chased him to Pengcheng to ask for the Qingzhou army, he met Lu Bu and refused to return him. Xiahou Dun felt very unhappy.

Lu Bu said that he wanted the Qingzhou army to go to the coal mine to dig coal, but Xiahou Dun certainly refused to believe it.

He stayed in Pengcheng just to see if Lu Bu would do that.

If the Qingzhou army was sent to collect coal, the reputation that Lu Bu had accumulated before would likely plummet.

The warriors who have experienced the battlefield all have extremely strong pride in their bones.

Letting them do what the civilians should have done is definitely a very serious contusion to morale.

After living in Pengcheng for a long time, Xiahou Dun did not wait for Lu Bu to order the Qingzhou army to go to the coal mine.

He originally planned to ask Lu Bu in two days, but he didn't expect Chen Gong to visit him late at night.

Often when visiting late at night, either it is important or there is something shameful about it.

Although Xiahou Dun was a powerful general, he had led troops for many years and was not a fool.

He sat up and ordered the guards: "Please go to the side room to speak."

After getting up to wash, Xiahou Dun came to the side room, and Chen Gong was already waiting in the room.

"It was already late at night, and Mr. Chen suddenly visited. Is there any important thing to say?" Seeing the etiquette, Xiahou Dun asked Chen Gong.

"To be honest, I came back from Wen Hou." Chen Gong said: "Not only is there an important matter, but it is also so important that it cannot be delayed for a moment!"

Xiahou Dun was confused.

No matter how he thought about it, he couldn't think of anything important. It was when Chen Gong visited him late at night.

"Duke Cao sent troops to Lujiang, but I wonder if General Xiahou heard that?" Chen Gong asked mysteriously.

Being in Pengcheng, getting news would certainly not be as convenient as Lu Bu. Xiahou Dun, who was completely unaware of it, was stunned: "Lord, have you used troops to Lujiang?"

"General Li Mancheng defeated the Huainan Army in Yijing and killed the Huainan General Li Mao in the formation." Chen Gong asked again: "Did no one tell the general?"

"I'm in Pengcheng, so the news will come later." Xiahou Dun said in annoyance: "Wouldn't Mr. Chen be embarrassed by this question?"

"Don't misunderstand Xiahou and Jiang Junjie, I don't mean to embarrass the general." Chen Gong laughed with her: "I came here just to tell the general the news."

"What then?" Xiahou Dun asked.

He expected that Chen Gong would remind him next to Cao Cao to make contributions to Cao Cao's attack on Lujiang.

But Chen Gong didn't say that.

"I just told the general, nothing else to say." Chen Gong replied: "It's not too early, so I dare not delay the general's rest!"

When Chen Gong sent the message, he did not give any advice. Xiahou Dun suddenly felt that something was missing.

He asked quickly: "Don't the Gongtai think I should go back to my lord?"

"Whether the general is going back depends on his heart." Chen Gong said: "I don't have any suggestions!"

"Mentai and I are also acquaintances, so we can't give any suggestions?" Chen Gong's suggestion decided that Xiahou Dun should go and stay, and he still asked without giving up.

After pondering for a while, Chen Gong said, "I want to persuade the general to go back, but I'm afraid that the general will misunderstand it, so it's better not to say it!"

He bowed again: "General Xiahou please rest, I will take a break first!"

"Stay on the official station!" Chen Gong exited the room, and Xiahou Dun chased after him: "Please also make it clear to the official station, what is the difference between staying and leaving?"

"The general stayed here just to watch Wen Hou send Qingzhou troops to the coal mine." Chen Gong said: "Once the Qingzhou troops go to the coal mine, the morale of the soldiers will definitely be low. Not only will Cao Gong rest assured, but the general will also be much more relieved."

Xiahou Dun felt embarrassed when Chen Gong exposed his thoughts.

He smiled unnaturally: "I'm really wronged when I say this on the official station."

"It doesn't matter whether I wrongly accuse the general. What matters is what can the general wait here? What benefits can he get in the end?" Chen Gong lowered his voice: "To be honest, Marquis Wen actually did not intend to send Qingzhou troops to the coal mine. The general waited here for ten years, and he was still like this."

Xiahou Dun was stunned: "I was deceived by Wen Hou so?"

"That's of course." Chen Gong said frankly: "The general must be able to see how much energy Mr. Wen has invested in the Qingzhou army. The generals must have seen it. The Qingzhou army soldiers followed Mr. Wen, and those who have made great achievements will be rewarded. In the battle of Huainan, many humble soldiers now became commanders, even hundreds of seniors. Following the general, have they ever had a chance to stand out? Will the general force them away, will they be hated by the soldiers?"

"So what can I do if I hold a grudge? Could it be that they dare to rebel?" Xiahou Dun glared: "Who dares to complain, I will kill him!"

He then bowed to Chen Gong: "Thank you, Gongtai, for treating you sincerely. I will go to see Marquis Wen tomorrow morning and ask him to return the Qingzhou army to me!"

Lu Bu did not intend to let the Qingzhou army go to the coal mine, and Xiahou Dun found a reason to ask for it, so of course he had to thank Chen Gong.

But Chen Gong smiled coldly: "If General Xiahou really did that, he would probably never be able to return to Cao Gong."

"Can Lv Fengxian harm me for the Qingzhou army?" Xiahou Dun frowned.

"How could Mr. Wen harm the general?" Chen Gong said: "He sincerely joined Cao Gong, and of course he could not murder the people beside him..."

"Then what else should I worry about?" Xiahou Dun said: "In Pengcheng, I will not care about anyone except him!"

"The general is in Pengcheng. Even if he does things well, Marquis Wen will not do anything to you." Chen Gong said: "Not only Marquis Wen will not do anything, but also generals such as Zilong and Wen Yuan will not do anything."

"Then I'm even more relieved!" Xiahou Dun breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, the Public Administration told me, otherwise I wouldn't know how long I'd have to wait. I'll ask the Qingzhou army early tomorrow morning, and I will return to the lord immediately."

"General, please do whatever you want!" Chen Gong smiled slightly: "I will prepare the coffin for the general, and ask Mr. Wen to organize a funeral for the general!"

Xiahou Dun was stunned: "The Gongtai said just now..."

"Mr. Wen and the generals of Xuzhou will not be like this, but no one can guarantee whether the soldiers of Qingzhou will be like this!" Chen Gong said: "The soldiers didn't even know why they were alive in the past. Now they finally found their target, but were broken by the general. I dare to ask the general, will they hold grudges?"

"Will Mr. Lu Wen ignore it?" Xiahou Dun frowned: "As long as he speaks..."

"General is too naive!" Chen Gong's smile became brighter: "Wen Hou didn't want to return the Qingzhou army at first. Can he not do anything to the general and what the soldiers should do? Will he stop it?"

"I'm not going to say more, so I'm going to take a step first!" Chen Gong took his leave again, ignored Xiahou Dun, who was still stunned, and turned around and left.

Xiahou Dun stood there at a loss, his mind was as messy as if he was a piece of mud, and he didn't understand the relationship clearly for a while.
