Chapter 148 Perfect trust (for the total 12/30)
Guan Ping looked at Xiahou Dun with a trembling expression on his face, and sighed silently in his heart, without responding to Xiahou Dun's rage.
Xiahou Dun waved his sword and slashed everywhere, venting his anger in pain. Tears kept flowing down his eyes, and his voice became more hoarse and weak.
Since moving south, he has suffered heavy damage one after another.
Last time, he failed to save his athlete, and this time... Li Tong was plotted against him again.
Le Jin admitted in the military newspaper that he was the first to arrive outside Jiangling City to open the way for the entire army, which shows Li Tong's ability and Le Jin's noble character.
It doesn't matter. Everyone is dead. No matter how much reputation he has given him, Li Tong cannot be resurrected and compete with Le Jin for the status of Jingzhou.
Cai Mao accompanied Cao Pi and Cao Zhi in Dangyang for more than a month. Although his soldiers were hungry and thin, they still maintained their military appearance intact. Cao Ren was also satisfied with Cai Mao's respectful service. This time, he went north and went side by side with Cai Mao, talking about national affairs, and boasted that he had mastered Cai Mao in the military newspaper he wrote.
Cao's army lost Jiangling, and Man Chong was captured, but the Cao army who escaped was not at all aware of great defeat. Everyone was happy and told the joy of escaping from death. Cao Ren and Cao Hong even blew Le Jin and Xu Huang into their own life-saving benefactors in the military newspaper. If they were not two, they would have been trapped in Jiangling.
In particular, Cao Ren even included a joint letter from him, Cao Pi and Cai Mao in the military newspaper, which said that Le Jin showed the courage and courage of the general in this battle and was the greatest contributor to the success of Jiangling. Cai Mao was convinced. After Cao Ren persuaded him, he was willing to follow the three mutual laws and give up the position of the governor of Jingzhou to Le Jin. In return, Cao Ren and Cao Hong jointly appointed Cai Mao as the prefect of Nanyang, and everyone developed well in Jingzhou. All the great achievements of Jingzhou were handed over to the two heroes Le Jin and Cai Mao.
Xiahou Dun couldn't help but curse.
Cao Ren and Cao Hong's funerals have reached such shamelessness. Cai Mao beat Cao Hong on the street in Jiangling before and almost killed Cao Ren in the Wulin War.
Now, because they walked around Dangyang, these two people made up their past grudges with Cai Maobing? How could they recommend Cai Mao to be the prefect of Nanyang?
When you think about it, you will know that this must be Le Jin's reconciliation, which gave Cao Ren and Cao Hong a lot of benefits.
Cao Ren is very proud of his face and wants to accept Cai Mao's reputation. Cao Hong is even more overdoing. As long as he is not beaten to death, the price is fair, he is willing to do all business with his enemies.
After venting his anger, Xiahou Dun felt even colder. He could only sit down with Guan Ping's support. His right right tears fell like rain and sighed: "What are you innocent, what are you innocent?"
If I had known it would have been better to trap them all in Jiangling City. I didn’t know that so many disgusting things were caused and even killed Wenda…
"What should I do?" he murmured.
Guan Ping sighed:
"For the sake of the present plan, the general needs to make peace with General Le quickly.
To eliminate Sun and Liu, it is more important to fight with General Le, and please think twice.”
Xiahou Dun nodded blankly.
Now that things have come to this point, he can only be forced to accept this reality.
"Fangzhi, can I believe you?" Xiahou Dun looked at Guan Ping with a burning look with a little sadness.
Guan Ping shook his head:
"General, don't believe me. I am General Le, and I don't want to turn against General Le.
If the general agrees, I will have my wish to be the prefect of Yijiangxia, and I really don’t want to fight with General Le.”
Guan Ping was telling the truth, and he added:
"Yun is just a savage in the mountains. In order to repay General Le, he joined the army to serve the country.
Before, Zhang Yun and Chen Qun frequently framed each other, but I had no ambition to improve anymore, just to live in Jingxiang and spend my whole life in peace.
The general's entrustment is too heavy. If Yun cannot do it, wouldn't it be ridiculous?"
Xiahou Dun was very anxious.
If a person loses his ambition, he will lose his fighting spirit and is difficult to control. This is how many soldiers and soldiers will start to lie down naturally after losing their upward motivation.
Xiahou Dun knew that his trip to Jingzhou had already hit the iron plate. Now Cao's army can only rely on Le Jin and must not force him to rebel. At the same time, he must not let him bow to the Jingzhou clans to avoid being infiltrated by Liu Bei.
After thinking about it, the best way to keep the elite troops of Yunshan in Jingzhou, and relying on Yunshan's skills to make Le Jin feel afraid.
Thinking of this, Xiahou Dun made up his mind.
He took the pen and ink, and wrote a lot of words on a piece of silk, and handed them to Yunshan.
"Frankly, look at this."
This is a letter written by Xiahou Dun to Cao Cao.
It is said that after Xiahou Dun's investigation, the origin of Yunshan was confirmed to be true.
His father was indeed a righteous man who rebelled against Sun Jian back then. His previous record of fighting against Guan Yu in the Battle of Chibi and fighting all sides was true.
Xiahou Dun praised Guan Ping as a trustworthy and entrusted person. His fighting has annoyed Liu Bei's army. The cunning senior leaders of Liu Bei's army will definitely try their best to frame this hero. Please ask Cao Cao to trust Guan Ping no matter what the news he hears. Never doubt Guan Ping because of the frame-up of some people with ulterior motives.
Although Cao Cao was suspicious, no matter how suspicious he was, someone would have to entrust him, otherwise he would not dare to go out.
Xiahou Dun and Wang must be the people Cao Cao trusted the most, and Xiahou Dun is known for his integrity and harshness. He confirmed that Guan Ping's identity was absolutely not fake, which was to open the door to promotion for Guan Ping.
Among the Cao army, only a few people such as Cao Cao were able to recognize Guan Ping at a glance. People like Cao Ren who had not participated in the Changbanpo Battle and who were far from Guan Ping on Huarong Road may not be able to see through Guan Ping's identity.
With Xiahou Dun's endorsement, no one dared to question Guan Ping's identity anymore. If someone framed Guan Ping like Zhang Yun, Guan Ping could even use today's credentials to ask Xiahou Dun to kill him.
A trace of sincere joy appeared in his eyes and he suddenly bowed to the ground:
"Shan Yijie was lucky enough to be trusted by the general. He is willing to be promoted by the general and swear to keep the peace in Jingzhou."
Xiahou Dun sighed a little, he helped Guan Ping up and said with emotion:
"Don't thank me. A loyal and brave person like Tanzhi should be rewarded highly. Meng De had a daughter named Xian, and he wanted to marry a general as a wife, but he only regretted that he was inconvenient to leave home when he was young.
When I returned to Xudu, I asked the Prime Minister to make a name for him and wait for the New Year in Xu. How about marrying into Tanzhi's family in a few years?"
Cao Cao, the inventor of Plum quenching thirst, has always used marrying his daughter to tempt Yunshan to work hard for himself.
Xiahou Dun was still honest, so he said that he would go to talk about peace and set his name first. Before, Cao Cao wanted to marry his eldest daughter to Ding Yi, but Cao Pi made the hindrance. In the end, Cao Cao's eldest daughter married Xiahou Dun's son.
Yunshan and Cao Pi now have a very good relationship, and are highly valued by Xiahou Dun. It is too late for Cao Pi to win over, so he will definitely do his best to make this happen.
After Yunshan and Cao Xian married, they became relatives with Xiahou Dun. At that time, they would be the absolute supporter of the Cao family. Jiang Xia would become the frontline of the Cao army, which would also be of great help to the Cao family's great cause in the future.
If Guan Ping doesn't show his loyalty at this time, he will be a fool. He quickly bows down and kowtows, thanking Xiahou Dun for his care. Xiahou Dun also smiles and says that he will be a relative in the future and you don't have to see him like this.
"General, are you going to go back to Xudu?"
"Just call uncle.
Not bad, I'm going back."
Xiahou Dun smiled self-deprecatingly, "I have been defeated this time. After returning to Xudu, I can still provide you with some help so that Le Jin dare not attack you at will.
If this is here, even if Le Jin doesn't want to attack me, I'm afraid that the Jingzhou tribes will one day force him to attack me.
Speaking of which, Le Jin is also a veteran. He has fought for half his life and has never made any mistakes. If possible, I don’t want to force him to rebel.”
Xiahou Dun's expression was quite lonely. He said he didn't want to force Le Jin to rebel, but in fact, after Guan Ping and Ma Liang's deception of Le Jin was irreconcilable.
Unite everything that can be united and deal with powerful enemies.
Xiahou Dun doesn't understand this principle, but Guan Ping understands it very much.
Lejin is also a force worthy of unity, both before and after.
"General, I will go back to Jiangxia now to make arrangements, and be careful to let the thieves take the opportunity to attack Shi Yang and take advantage of the loopholes."
"Go." Xiahou Dun praised, "We will see you next day."
·
Although Cao Ren may not be able to recognize Guan Ping's identity on Huarong Road, it is still a bit risky after all. Moreover, Jiangling City is broken, so it is time for him to go home and take a look.
Jiangling and Jingnan counties were defeated at the same time, and Liu Bei finally had a place to settle down. Guan Ping wanted to ask Zhuge Liang for his advice and see where he, General Yun, should go in the future.
He hurriedly said goodbye to Xiahou Dun, took a boat with Lu Ye, rushed to Shiyang for a while, and then led a group of confidential soldiers to carry nearly 3,000 stones of military rations for business, and drove towards Jiangling in a swagger.
Thinking of the first time he entered Jiangling as Yunshan, Guan Ping suddenly felt like he was a different world.
"I just wanted to set a fire at that time." Guan Ping murmured, "I thought that setting a fire would cause a heavy blow to Cao's army, and then I could throw Yunshan's identity and continue to be Guan Ping who was trapped in battle to kill the enemy.
At that time, I thought Cao's army was an unbreakable iron wall, but I didn't expect that this iron wall would have so many flaws.
This is the case in the world, and people are doing this again and again. I thought that everything in the world would be solved after defeating Cao's army. Unexpectedly... Hey, I don't know if I am closer or further away from the ideal of supporting the Han Dynasty..."
Lu Yi's eyes were deep, and a smile appeared on his slightly tired face:
"I don't know what the world will be, but the past six months have passed, and Tanzhi has made a lot of progress.
In a few days, Brother Yu will be relieved to return to Jiangdong.”
"Brother Bo Yan is going back?" Guan Ping was surprised.
"Yes," Lu Yi smiled, "It takes everyone's concerted efforts to attack Cao's army. Brother Yu has also learned a lot of things over the days with Tanzhi. The Supreme repeatedly attacked Hefei and was not up to date. When I came back from Jiangling, I was going to go deep into Xubei to build a base.
Let’s see who can conquer Xianyang first, and who will conquer Luoyang first."
These days, Lu Yi did not show off his appearance, but helped Guan Ping do a lot of things as Lu Xun. Guan Ping and Le Jin and others could discuss with Ma Liang, and designed a battle to kill Li Tong but relied on Lu Yi to help him.
Now Lu Gong is leaving... He is really a little lost for a moment.
However, he quickly became excited again.
