Chapter 136 Is the general a loyal minister?

Since ancient times, fighting wars has been an opportunity to make money, and fighting big wars has been an opportunity to make money for everyone.

Sima Fu had thought that Guan Ping and Xiakou had some tacit understanding, so Liu Bei's army and Sun Quan's army in Xiakou did not land in search of their bad luck.

He didn't think there was anything wrong with this, and he even pretended to not see it at all. He also thoughtfully helped Guan Ping to carefully hide some flaws.

War is Shangguan’s business, an irreconcilable contradiction between Cao Cao and Sun and Liu, and what does it have to do with the specific executors below?

Now Jiangling is surrounded by iron barrels. It is so difficult to transport military rations, but there are still a large number of Shujin merchants who can travel through the Yangtze River to Jiangling. Zhou Yu's supply of food and grass is so tight that he has to rely on buying some from the surrounding Cao army.

Since it can't be stopped, why enjoy it unpleasantly?

Sima Fu had felt that Yunshan was not a simple warrior. After these days of contact, he believed that this person was a powerful speculator. As long as he could bring huge benefits, he would sell anything.

At present, Cao's army has gathered tens of thousands of people in Dangyang, and its troops have exceeded Zhou Yu's besieged army in Jiangling. Cao's army and Jiangdong army are about to engage in a war that is no less than the previous one.

The Sima family, who had not caught up with the wealth before, cannot miss it again this time.

Although Sima Fu received a good education since childhood, this was not a good thing, but everyone did this. If you keep yourself alone, you will not only seem unsociable, but also lose the foundation of a famous scholar. A famous scholar must not work like others, facing the loess and backs on the sky. You must have a Confucian robe, hiring hundreds of servants, drinking the best wine, riding a horse without a variety of colors, and then often chatting with people. How can you do without a large amount of money in this life?

Sima Fu has no choice.

Although Guan Ping had already obtained a lot of military rations with Sima Fu before, he was just a small fight and was just a small fuss. He was trying to get some Cao Zhi's wool. Now that he said it, the two of them immediately felt that they had met too late.

You have to find a big one to grab the wool. Such a big battle is the best opportunity.

So Guan Ping thought about it and directly attracted Huo Jun in front of Sima Fu, ordering Huo Jun to cross the river and discuss the next big deal with Liu Bei's army in Jiangnan.

Xiakou is a small place with food, salt and everything, but its geographical location is so good that it is stuck at the intersection of the Yangtze River and Han River. This geographical location is really convenient for people to drool.

Sima Fu knew that the famous scholars in the Central Plains had huge demands for the Shu brocade in Yizhou and the pearls in Jiaozhou. If he could serve as a fulcrum, he would definitely bring huge profits to the Sima family.

Only with money can one have greater reputation. This is the basis of a wealthy family. Otherwise, why is Zheng Xuan’s family not good at learning? Isn’t it because he has no money?

Huo Jun couldn't believe his ears after hearing Guan Ping's arrangement.

At first, he thought Sima Fu was his own person, but he didn't expect that Sima Fu was just here to talk about business, which made Huo Jun feel that his views were about to collapse.

"Is this possible?" After Sima Fu left, he grabbed Guan Ping in disbelief and asked, "Everyone is like this? Everyone is like this?"

Lu Yi looked calm and was not surprised by this matter.

"I don't know what your army is like, so is my Jiangdong."

Huo Jun temporarily took over this small elite soldier from his brother's hands, and he has always been under the care of Cai Mao's commander. After Cai Mao was finished all the bad things, Huo Jun naturally had no way to know.

Lu Yi told him that the same was true for the soldiers in Jiangdong.

The most basic operation is to resell corrupt military rations everywhere. The most excessive Pan Zhang's own army directly opened a market to resell military supplies, and even robbed his own soldiers' property.

The more big the war is, the more common such behaviors are. Nowadays, people are no longer surprised.

He didn't know what to say for a moment, so he could only throw a look at Guan Ping inquiring.

"Are we the same?"

Guan Ping naturally knew who we were talking about.

Huo Jun and Ma Liang and many Jingzhou people were willing to take risks and follow each other, instead of following the crowd like other Jingzhou tribes, they believed that the peace under Liu Bei's rule was more in line with their ideals for a great rule of the world.

Today's incident made Huo Jun a little dizzy, so he couldn't wait to get the answer from Guan Ping.

"We are not." He said quickly, "I don't know if this will happen in the future, but at least now, we haven't become like this."

Lu Yi wanted to say that it was inevitable in the future, but looking at Guan Ping and Huo Jun, he still closed his mouth very cleverly.

"General Guan," he was surrounded by his own people, and Huo Jun simply called Guan Ping, "I want to kill the enemy, I want to kill the enemy! I know what you do is also very important, but I am tired of being silly with these people.

I want to kill the enemy, I want to kill the enemy with great pleasure, please give me this opportunity!"

If Huo Jun had been under Guan Ping's tent, he would have no worries about food and clothing, and could successfully get promotion and rewards. This kind of good thing was something that others could not ask for, but Huo Jun actually refused, which made Lu Yi feel a little moved.

Why do all such people go to Liu Bei?

Guan Ping's eyes also showed a touch of emotion. He did not dissuade Huo Jun, and Chen Si said for a moment:

"Does Zhong Miao lead his army deep into Wancheng area to intercept the enemy's retreat for me and build a base?"

Huo Jun said loudly:

"This is what I wish for in my life, why don't you dare to do it!"

·

With a determined determination, Cao's army's war machine began to gradually start.

General Fubo Xiahou Dun arrived in Wancheng with the feud and organized the supply of food for Lejin and Xu Huang. He wanted to mobilize the continuous flow of food from the Central Plains to move south as much as possible, stockpile it in Fancheng, and then send it from Guanping to Dangyang by water to ensure the smooth progress of the battle.

Cao Pi and Cao Zhi were both trapped in Dangyang, and there were treacherous people like Cai Mao around him. Xiahou Dun dared not be careless at all. He personally rushed to Fancheng to summon Le Jin, Xu Huang, and Yunshan to talk and discuss details of future wars.

Guan Ping returned to Xiangyang to pick up Le and cross the river. Sure enough, Le Jin's face was full of anger.

"Hey, I'm still worried about me."

Le Jin was too lazy to hide in front of Guan Ping. He didn't even bother to say hello. He reached out and patted Guan Ping on the shoulder, saying unwillingly:

"Frankly, Xiahou Yuanrang is not easy to get along with, you have to be careful."

Le Jin relied on force to fight from the grassroots to the top leaders. This time he subdued Cai Mao. He thought that he could dominate Jingzhou by driving Cao Ren away, but he never expected Cao Cao to airborne a new leader. Although Cao Cao meant that he had to listen to Le Jin's war, the logistics were all in the hands of others, and Xiahou Dun could just call Le Jin to cross the river to have a meeting. How could this make Le Jin's face be kept?

I have been promoting the whole of Xiangyang for more than half a year, and I have received the gifts. Now I have arranged another superior for me with a bang. Le Jin feels that these Jingzhou tribes must be very disappointed.

Guan Ping raised his eyebrows and then leaned down to bow:

"General, Ji Chang and I are willing to obey the general's orders not because we value the general's ability, but because of the general's benevolence and can bring revival to Jingzhou.

Please rest assured, we will definitely advance and retreat with the general!"

Le Jin was very happy and pinched Guan Ping's strong shoulders with emotion:

"The great Han Dynasty is very lucky to have a general."

Taking advantage of the time he got ashore, Guan Ping asked in a low voice:

"A general is a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty?"

Le Jin was stunned by this question.

If it were before, he would have cursed Guan Ping for being unwilling, but now he was stunned and staggered by the rocks between the boat and the river bank, and almost fell to the ground.

Looking at Guan Ping's righteous expression, Le Jin muttered for the first time.

For many years, he has always felt that he has cared for Cao Cao's great kindness. Cao Cao has recreated his kindness to him, and he should do his best to repay Cao Cao's kindness.

But after sitting in this position for a long time, Le Jin's mentality has also quietly changed, especially Ma Liang and Xiang Lang have been constantly praising him, saying that talents like Le Jin were sent by God to protect Jingzhou, and even said that Le Jin was transformed by Dongjun worshipped by the people of Chu, which will bring light to the people of Chu.

Such flattery has been enjoying one day, and he doesn't believe it for two days. After a long time, he encountered such a frustrated thing again, and he felt even more unwilling to the extreme.

"Of course I am a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty." He said with great confidence and a firm voice.

It is clear to both Le Jin and Guan Ping that the people under Cao Jun said on unofficial occasions that they were loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty.

Neither of them spoke and walked straight to Fancheng City.

·

Xiahou Dun had already waited in the city early.

This veteran in his fifties is burly and majestic, with a strong face as strong as iron. The scars in his left eye are shocking. A faint evil aura surrounds him, making Le Jin, who is unwilling to accept, and is forced to restrain his sharpness in front of him and bow to him:

"Meet General Xiahou."

Guan Ping also bowed with Le Jin, but saw a warm smile on Xiahou Dun's hideous face.

He first helped Le Jin up, then Guan Ping up and down and said with a smile:

"You are Tanzhi, right? I can hear your name day and night in Luoyang. Wen Qian is very proud of his use of people. He has a very ancient style and has a good fortune in the Han Dynasty."

Hey, it's different from the legend.

It is rumored that Xiahou Dun is as cold as iron and very difficult to speak. Isn’t this a very harmonious speech?

Xu Huang's face turned pale and said with a forced smile:

"General Xiahou, Tanzhi met Shangguan for the first time and did not understand etiquette. Please don't blame me."

Guan Ping quickly saluted humbly, Xiahou Dun shook his wide palm and sighed:

"There are only me here, so how can there be so many common etiquettes? There are still some things in our army, we don't have to eat today. Let's talk about it for a long time - Talk about it, I am here to be the leader, and the war will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who
