Chapter 14
Zhang Zhao looked down on any martial artist. When he attacked Huang Zu, he was disdainful of Gan Ning's suggestions, saying that Gan Ning would obviously bring disaster.
Gan Ning, who can make detailed and meticulous plans and fight the bravest army, is still like this, let alone the young Guan Ping. If it weren't for the big thing, Zhang Zhao wouldn't allow a warrior like Guan Ping to sit beside him.
Calm down, calm down, I'm all for the future of Jiangdong.
He sighed, and his face quickly returned to his kind face.
"I and my husband heard that the young general killed Cao Zihe, and they even praised the hero as a young man.
Everyone in the world said that Cao Gong was invincible and I was in a state of peace in Jiangdong. Since I knew the power of the young general, I should have a great impression of him!"
According to the normal method, Guan Ping should humbly say "I dare not" and "lucky" and then fight hard, so Zhang Zhao can naturally take the next step.
You are the one you want to fight, and everyone admires you very much and supports you very much. Why don’t we join you with a group of troops and let you lead your army to make things difficult for Cao Gong, kill some enemy generals casually, and defeat the enemy’s aura. It should not be difficult for you, a warrior who kills Cao Chun.
Guan Ping was young and energetic, and he would probably agree to the compliments of a group of famous scholars.
Zhang Zhao and Lu Ji were even ready. As long as Guan Ping agreed, they would give him a bunch of troops immediately. He encouraged him to attack Cao Cao. Lu Ji could divide his troops to help the battle. Leave Chaisang and leave the sight of those pro-war factions.
Of course, this army would definitely not let Guan Ping command and leave Chaisang. They passed through Xiakou and immediately launched a bondage to Guan Ping and gave it to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao was originally very happy and sad. He was about to fight and defeat Cao Chun first. He didn't dare to vent his anger at will, so he must have been filled with evil fire.
As long as Guan Ping is executed, Jiangdong and Liu Bei will definitely not be able to continue the alliance. At that time, Zhang Zhao will persuade Sun Quan to attack Liu Bei immediately with Cao Cao. After that, the aristocratic tribes in Jiangdong can surrender like the Jingxiang tribes, and everyone can be granted the title of marquis.
This trick is quite embarrassing to say, but Lu Ji told Zhang Zhao that the talent shown by Zhuge Liang will definitely convince Sun Quan, Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Cheng Pu, Gan Ning and others who fought for half their lives were all people who did not shed tears without seeing the coffin.
In order to save Jiangdong, I can only ask Zhang Zhao to be so mature and steadfast. The famous people all over the world have slightly damaged their reputation.
Zhuge Liang could definitely see through this idea at a glance, so Zhang Zhao could only take advantage of being a thief today and ask everyone to form a group to fool Guan Ping.
Seeing Guan Ping looking at him with a burning look, Zhang Zhao felt a little ashamed.
Alas, this is not what a famous scholar does, but I am so proud of Bo Fu's entrusting my own son. I can only do this for Jiangdong.
Everyone looked at Guan Ping expectantly, and after Guan Ping said that Cao's army was not afraid, they began to praise him.
Guan Ping held the copper cube in his hand and looked around everyone around him. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, sighing:
"Cao's army is strong, and the officials of Jiangdong are truly not allowed to compete with him. It is better to surrender early."
Zhang Dun stood up according to the previous arrangement and praised:
"What the young general said is very...uh, what, what?"
Guan Ping is not good at verbal disputes, but after a glass of wine, he was full of blood and swelled up. He ignored the shocked gazes of the people around him, and stood up angrily and said:
"Yes, Cao's army is powerful and has wiped out Jiangbei. No one in the world dares to fight. The princes must have thought that. It's better to surrender early!"
Everyone looked at each other, but they didn't expect that Guan Ping was so fierce and violent, and he was not polite at all. He poked everyone's lung tubes as soon as he came up.
This, what should I do?
Yu Fan had long seen Guan Ping's inexplicable hostility towards him. He helped his hat, shocked his long sleeves, and snorted coldly:
"We have our own decision to fight or surrender, so the young general will not bother.
Since the young general knows that Cao's army is powerful, why not persuade Liu Yuzhou to surrender soon?"
Guan Ping could not be Yu Fan's opponent in any case. He subconsciously glanced at Zhang Zhao, who was in charge. Seeing Zhang Zhao's face full of fear, he thought that Zhang Zhao was weak, so he was naturally embarrassed to scold these Jiangdong clans.
I am just a martial artist, and I will definitely stand up for Mr. Zhang today!
He sneered and threw the copper baton in his hand to the ground. The crisp sound made everyone feel palpitations. Before they could react, Guan Ping had already grown up.
He pressed his sword hilt and sneered:
"Of course we won't surrender."
"I just remembered when the Cao army attacked Xuzhou. I followed my father and uncles all the way south. What I saw with my own eyes was the tyranny of the Cao army. I killed and burned all the way, with blood soaked in the loess and blocked the Si River. The people who fled to Xuzhou since the Dong Zhuo Rebellion were almost killed in this battle. I was worried that the chickens and dogs in Suiling and Xiaqiu counties were all gone, and there were no more travelers in the ruins."
"There are people from Xuzhou in our army, and there are many people who witnessed the tragic situation of that year.
Who among Xuzhou people does not have relatives and friends who died tragically back then? Who dares to surrender is not a female who conquers enemies, and a pig or dog is inferior to a pig or a dog?
After seeing the tragic situation of that year, I wish to be a thief, but how could I have the face to call myself a saint? Guan has always known that all gentlemen all say that they are benevolent and loving the people, and they all take it as their responsibility to educate the world. Why not practice it yourself and fight against the weak with us and fight against the Cao thief together? I wonder what Zhang Gong wants?”
Why not help the strong?
Isn’t this nonsense? Because Cao’s army is too strong.
If a bandit slaughtered heavily, these famous scholars would definitely raise their arms and shout, "Everyone should not tell them any rules, and they would have to kill the whole bandit's family."
But Cao Cao is obviously so cruel, you still have to kill the strong...
Everyone in Jiangdong's scholars changed their qualities, and these words just touched the thoughts of Lu Ji, who was the leader of them, and everyone remained silent for a moment.
Guan Ping certainly could not quote the scriptures, but he told all the things he saw and heard with his own eyes.
The cruelty of the Cao army was still fresh in everyone under Liu Bei's command. Xuzhou people like Zhuge Liang, Mi Zhu and Mi Fang even swear to fight the Cao army to the end. Even Xu Sheng said that he had many relatives and friends who died under the Cao army back then. If he did not avenge this revenge, how could he walk in the world?
He took advantage of the alcohol and said whatever he wanted. Seeing that the people in Jiangdong were afraid to argue at all, he was overjoyed.
This... is a verbal battle against the scholars? When I speak, they don’t dare to speak anymore?
The destiny is with me! I am indeed walking by the number of days!
Of course, the people in Jiangdong did not dare to argue - Guan Ping, a martial artist, couldn't spit out ivory in his mouth, and even said that the people of Xuzhou who wanted to surrender to Cao Cao were inferior to those of pigs and dogs. They could have used Liu Bei's friend Chen Deng to surrender to Cao to disgust Guan Ping, but when they looked at Zhang Zhao, who looked like he had eaten something unclean, they immediately drooped their heads and said nothing.
Zhang Zhao's face turned pale.
Yesterday they had a quarrel with Zhuge Liang, but Zhuge Liang was blocked by the name of righteousness and could not speak. However, Zhuge Liang paid attention to his oral virtue and did not take Zhang Zhao as a fleeing Xuzhou as an entry point to disgust Zhang Zhao.
Guan Ping is too shameless. Who is this sarcastic?
He snorted, his face full of evil spirits.
Yes, Guan Ping is right. Zhang Zhao is from Pengcheng, Xuzhou. He happened to be in the worst place in the war. All the soldiers of the Cao army were habitual criminals who were rich. Who cares about the knowledge of famous scholars? Big Blade specializes in finding famous and rich people to cut them over.
Many of Zhang Zhao's relatives and friends died in that war. If it were the Han Dynasty, it would be fine to persuade Sun Quan to surrender for the sake of the world and for the sake of justice. But as a good student of the saint, justice will be righteous. When you discuss personal grudges, you either fight with Cao Cao, or jump into the river in public to commit suicide, and then commit suicide by closing the door to fulfill the teachings of the saint.
But Zhang Zhao doesn't want to.
What a Guan Ping, even Bo Fu and Zhong Mou were respectful to me, you dare to be sarcastic to me.
Do I dare not kill someone?
I want to kill you easily!
Zhang Zhao's eyes were full of murderous aura, and Guan Ping immediately understood that his previous words touched Zhang Zhao's concern. He must have been wronged before, and now he must have been quite resentful to these scholars in Jiangdong who were about to surrender.
He was overjoyed and jumped to Zhang Zhao's side, pulled out the long sword from his waist with a whoosh, and said sternly:
"I vowed to advance and retreat with Mr. Zhang. Whoever dares to surrender will surrender himself! It is impossible for us to surrender!"
After Xu Sheng came to Jiangdong, he followed the rules and tried his best to suppress his temperament, and never dared to be rude to these scholars.
Seeing that Guan Ping was still so passionate at such a young age, he was immediately excited, and he threw all his concerns behind him, and also picked up a barrel of wine, and instantly drank it all (most of them were scattered on his body).
"I'm Xu Sheng!"
He also drew out his sword and stood beside Zhang Zhao. The two of them stood with swords on the left and right, shouting:
"I, Xu Sheng, is from Langya, Xuzhou! Mr. Zhang is from Pengcheng, Xuzhou! They all have a bloody hatred with Cao thieves, so they must avenge them! The young general is in Xuzhou, and he is half a native of Xuzhou! Let's explain the matter clearly today - whoever wants to surrender, go and surrender yourself!
Whoever dares to persuade the Supreme to surrender to Cao is to have a personal grudge against us, and all three of us... dare to kill people!"
