Chapter 228
This is not the first time Chang Diao has seen Cao Cao.
When he was a guard, he always wanted to come to the prime minister as much as possible, so that his abilities could be seen by the prime minister, and then he was highly respected and finally left his fame and fortune in history.
But these days I really find that I don’t have the ability at all.
He commanded thousands of people to fight, probably not a big problem (it would be different if he could win), and asking him to deal with school affairs would really kill him. If he was able to use such a thing, Cao's army would not have been a mess after Guo Jia, and he was forced to throw it over to Chang Diao.
Chang Diao had really had enough fun. Seeing that Cao Cao had specially poured himself a pot of wine before, he slowly walked into the camp with a little drunkenness.
The central army tent was very lively. Cao Cao, Cao Ren, Xiahou Yuan, Jia Xu, Zhao Yan, Yang Xiu, and Zhong Yao were all here. Everyone looked at Chang Diao. Except for Yang Xiu, a Sima face, the others were full of warmth and gentleness. Zhong Yao even nodded repeatedly, looking at him as if he was actively trying to win over. Chang Diao felt even more uneasy.
He originally wanted to learn to pretend to be a madman, but in this kind of scene he didn't dare to do so, and could only say timidly:
"Prime Minister, something big happened!"
"Ah?" Cao Cao was stunned and subconsciously clenched his fists, "What's the matter? Could it be Guanzhong?"
"Oh, that's not." Chang Diao tried his best to search his heart and organize his rhetoric. "An emergency message came from Hefei, saying that General Zhang defeated Sun Quan and killed Jiangdong's corpses piled up like mountains and blood flowed into a river. Sun Quan was captured by General Zhang and the entire Wu army was wiped out.
This shocking victory is really a blessing for the Prime Minister!”
There was a silence in the tent, and no one was surprised. Cao Ren slapped the table and shouted:
"Giant Eagle, don't talk nonsense!"
Chang Diao was overjoyed and quickly stubbornly said:
"This matter is absolutely true. If the general doesn't believe it, it's even if he doesn't want to forgive Chang."
"Brave nonsense, you...how much wine did you drink? You dare to talk nonsense in front of the Prime Minister, shut up and sit down honestly!"
Cao Ren really wanted to praise Chang Diao. Today's banquet was also a fairy game. Everyone just bragged and went there. Unexpectedly, Chang Diao was so unsightly and said that General Zhang defeated Jiangdong and captured Sun Quan. Isn't this nonsense?
Zhang Liao and Li Dian had only seven or eight thousand people in total. If Sun Quan attacked Hefei, he would be able to dispatch at least 30,000 people this time. If Zhang Liao could still kill Sun Quan and arrest Sun Quan, then Zhang Liao general surpassed Cao Ren and became the largest general of the Cao army, no doubt about it.
Well, even if this outrageous record is true, how did Chang Diao detect it?
After Zhang Liao won a great victory, he would not report to the court first. He would report to Chang Diao first, right?
Even if Chang Diao is really good at hand and eyes, it is too outrageous to detect this. This clearly affects Cao Cao's good mood.
Sure enough, Cao Cao's face immediately became extremely gloomy. He stared at Chang Diao, and Chang Diao lowered his head timidly.
Cao Cao narrowed his eyes and said slowly:
"The Giant Eagle commander of the school officials is often criticized and he is helpless.
But there is no need to make such lies in front of the lonely. The military situation is urgent, so how can you not talk nonsense at will?
Let's sit down, don't talk about this today."
Chang Diao breathed a little relieved, thinking that this was different from what he had planned before, but it also successfully caused Cao Cao's disgust. At least Cao Cao would not add any more important tasks to him, so this is still true.
"snort."
Before, Cao Cao was originally planning to promote Chang Diao to the governor of Yongzhou and supervise the military affairs of Yongzhou, but he was polite as soon as he met, which made Cao Cao feel very bad. He temporarily stopped the idea of promoting Chang Diao and began to slowly ask about the current war.
Chang Diao was shocked by Cao Cao's powerful majesty, but he didn't dare to say anything. He just said that he had good luck in everything before, and his real great achievements were the soldiers under Yunshan who were defending Chang'an to the death.
Cao Ren kept winking at Chang Diao and asked him to take the credit as much as possible on him, and then Cao Ren also helped Chang Diao speak.
But Chang Diao really couldn't understand what Cao Ren meant, and he could only speak more and more humble. Later, Cao Cao asked about his plan and understanding of many overall situations and wars, and Chang Diao couldn't give it to him at all.
Cao Cao became more and more displeased, and he took a few military information he had just received to test Chang Diao. Chang Diao was also hesitant and could not analyze it at all, which made Cao Cao's face cold and terrifying.
"Forget it. I'm tired today, let's retreat." He said impatiently.
Chang Diao was like being granted a general amnesty and ran away quickly, and the tent suddenly became silent again.
"This is a regular eagle..."
Cao Cao has read countless people. Before, he always felt that Chang Diao had no real talent and knowledge. He was promoted to become his official in the office for someone to take the blame. Later, Chang Diao performed well. Cao Cao thought he had missed it. This time, this person was completely suppressed by himself and could not speak. Cao Cao even rebelled against him and had a good view of others before.
Yang Xiucha's expressions and expressions had already seen Cao Cao's dissatisfaction with Chang Diao. He smiled and said:
"I have heard a lot of rumors today, saying that Chang Juying had no ability at all, and it was all up to his subordinate Lu Hong to capture Liu Xiongming with his heart. Only then did he get Ma Chao's background. He dared to do this in Huayin, and he was sure that Yun Tanzhi was in Chang'an. Ma Chao would definitely support him, so he dared to do this crazy high-spirited state.
Hey, if there was no captain named Lu Hong, Military Commander Chang would be unable to move forward."
Yang Xiu's words came to Cao Cao's heart.
However, although he was quite dissatisfied with Chang Diao's performance, Chang Diao had made contributions and could not deal with it anyway.
However, when Cao Ren heard what Yang Xiu said, he said sarcastically:
"The giant eagle was awake at night and did not hesitate to harm his reputation for the sake of the court. Your Master Yang wiped out all his contributions in just one word.
Hey, I'm afraid my brothers won't accept it.
Back then, Guo Fengxiao was in charge of the school affairs and drank day and night, making frequent crazy words. Why would Giant Eagle say a few frivolous words after drinking?"
Yang Xiu was not afraid of Cao Ren at all and said with a smile:
"Although Guo Fengxiao was extremely crazy back then, he could speak accurately and had countless strategies.
Chang Juying was just a small soldier. After being promoted, he was temporarily in a high position. It was all up to Lu Hong, and his luck was excellent, so he could make a little contribution. The Prime Minister immediately showed his flaws."
"This person..."
"Okay." Cao Ren was the most protective of his shortcomings. He sneered, "When we were trapped in Jiangling City, there were many traitors who were abused, so we were forced to let the Giant Eagle work hard to lead the school affairs. For such a long time, Giant Eagle worked diligently, without any contribution, and worked hard. Instead, you live in the back and praise others at will as if nothing was needed.
Hey, I heard that Yang Zhubu is amazing in his talent. I wonder if he dares to take over the school affairs instead of Juying?"
"Son of filial piety!" Cao Cao frowned, "Don't talk nonsense!"
Cao Ren turned a deaf ear and looked at Yang Xiu with a fierce look.
Yang Xiu laughed loudly and slapped his thighs:
"I have studied hard since I was a child, asking about my knowledge, thinking, and what is the point of being alert to the Changji Eagle?
As long as the Prime Minister is willing to let me lead the school affairs, our army will win this battle, and I will ask the Prime Minister to fulfill it."
Yang Xiu has always been arrogant and did not take Chang Diao seriously, but he was also afraid of the mysterious school affairs in Cao Cao's hands surveillance on everyone on his side.
Taking advantage of Cao Cao's dislike of Chang Diao, if he could take the opportunity to bring the power of the school affairs into his own hands, it would be a great good thing. In the future, Cao Cao would never be able to use this mysterious army to oppress the Qingliu scholars.
Cao Cao was a little embarrassed for a while.
Although he doesn't like to carve often, he often carves hard work these days, and what he does is reasonable. At least he deserves to be loyal.
If Yang Xiu had mastered the school affairs, it was hard to say whether he would be loyal to him and continue to serve him.
But now he and Cao Ren were fighting each other, and he was clearly starting to ask himself about his official position. If Cao Cao refused to give it to him, wouldn’t he seem to have no trust in Yang Xiu?
He thought for a long time and said with a smile:
"Okay, Zixiao said so.
Giant Eagle is a powerful general. It is too difficult for him to lead the school these days.
Well, I am the only one who temporarily replaces Jingzhao Yin. This school affairs are temporarily led by Dezu.
The virtue and ancestor are very talented, so you must do something and don’t let your true self be disappointed.”
Although Cao Cao was wary of Yang Xiu, he was indeed very talented. If he could achieve some results in school affairs in this battle, Cao Cao would be willing to cultivate it well, which would be considered as a way to ease his relationship with Yang Biao.
Yang Xiu was overjoyed and quickly bowed and said proudly:
"Don't worry, Prime Minister, I will do my best to take charge of the school affairs and die for the Prime Minister."
·
Chang Diao heard that he had been transferred to Jingzhao Yin and was overjoyed.
This is much better than what you planned.
Jingzhao is now in Ma Chao's hands, and Chang Diao will do nothing for a while. When he defeated Ma Chao and controlled such a large territory, he could naturally act as a mighty man and make money at will in Jingzhao. It would be much better than being a small official in the previous plan. I heard that this was Cao Ren recommended him to Cao Cao, Chang Diao happily picked up two pieces of bacon to visit his old boss, thanking him for his care.
Unexpectedly, Cao Ren's face looked very ugly. When he saw Chang Diao coming to the door, he waved his hand and comforted him:
"Don't worry, Giant Eagle, you will be in charge of this school affairs sooner or later.
Hey, these stupid thieves are jealous of the virtuous and capable, and they clearly do not take me Cao Ren seriously.
When they fight, they will know how difficult it is to command the school affairs.
This Yang Xiu, I must have taken his life this time!"
Chang Diao:...
"Actually, I don't have to command the school affairs."
"Hmph, why, you don't believe me? Just wait with peace of mind."
·
Yang Xiu took office with joy and felt full of joy.
Before, when Guo Jia was there, Cao Cao had been using this school clerk to monitor the every move of the gentlemen in the court. Only those who Cao Cao trusted the most could take responsibility for such a position. However, after Guo Jia's death, Cao Cao could not choose someone who was highly educated and willing to work hard for him. After getting it, Chang Diao was cheaper.
But Chang Diao had no talent and Cao Ren was stupid and useless. I, Yang Xiu, took away such important power in just a few words.
Hey, this time I must do my best to achieve something and hold the responsibility of school affairs firmly in my own hands.
He called Lu Hong and smiled:
"Let the leaders under Chang Diao come to see me before, and I have something to say."
Lu Hong said calmly with a solemn expression on his face:
"No."
"No?"
