With Qingfeng in his sleeves, Chen Gong stood upright in the big tent and suddenly laughed "haha", with a hint of self-deprecation, and said slowly: "I didn't expect that I, Chen Gong, would die so unworthy, that I would die in such a bad way.
A small wax pill on the hand..."
Zhang Liao said: "Military advisor, my lord, the decision has not been finalized yet!"
Chen Gong sighed heavily and said slowly: "Forget it! If the lord wants to kill me, he can kill me at any time. Since I decided to follow the lord, this life belongs to the lord. However, if I die like this
My lord will definitely regret it. Based on my lord's understanding of me, if I really have the intention to rebel, I will definitely do it without leaking anything, let alone display such an important letter in front of my lord in public."
After Lu Bu heard this, he recalled Chen Gong's vigorous and resolute style of doing things and the profoundness of the city. He had reason to believe Chen Gong's explanation. His heart began to shake slowly, but looking at that picture
He had doubts about Chen Gong again, because what was written in the note was indeed true. He and Gao Fei happened to have captured half of Jizhou alone, and they were the only two forces north of the Yellow River.
Seeing that Lu Bu's face was slightly moved, Chen Gong raised the note in his hand and continued: "My lord, please take a closer look. The handwriting on this note is fundamentally different from that of my subordinate. The words on the note are completely different."
The handwriting is very elegant, but the handwriting of the subordinate is more vigorous. Based on this alone, we can conclude that this note was not written by the subordinate, and it has nothing to do with the subordinate."
"Perhaps you were afraid that others would find out, so you deliberately hired someone to write it for you?" Wei Xu speculated.
Chen Gong sneered: "General Wei said it quite lightly. I am not ashamed to say that if we look at the entire Jin army, I am afraid that there will never be another person who can write such beautiful words. Most of the soldiers
They are all illiterate white men, even if they are literate
It is also impossible to write such small characters. General Zhang's handwriting is more graceful, but General Zhang cannot write such small characters. This illustrates a problem. This is the enemy putting the blame on me and trying to use this incident.
Get rid of me and let the lord lose an arm."
"There was a fire in the granary for no reason during the day, and now it happens again. Needless to say, this must be the work of spies." Gao Shun analyzed.
Wei Xu hurriedly claimed the credit: "There was a spy, but I have already killed him. He is Ma Teng's man and has nothing to do with this matter."
Chen Gong continued: "My lord, please think about it again, who is Cao Cao? He is now the Marquis of Wei. No matter how close he is to anyone, except for his flesh and blood brothers, no one else calls Cao Cao the Marquis of Wei."
, it makes no sense both emotionally and rationally. Furthermore, the things written in this letter are far beyond the wisdom of ordinary people. Even when I saw it for the first time, I had to be impressed by this wisdom.
, comparable to Guan Zhong and Le Yi, and also has extremely far-reaching strategies."
Lu Bu said sarcastically: "Can you tell so much from such a simple letter? According to what you say, then our Jin army is full of pig brains? Are you the only one who is smart?"
Chen Gong felt speechless and said hurriedly: "This is not what I meant. I just stated the information contained in this letter."
"Lord, please tell me that the offense that the military advisor caused was definitely not intentional," Zhang Liao added.
Lu Bu sneered, waved his hand towards Chen Gong and said, "Continue talking."
Chen Gong made a "promise" and saw that Lu Bu's anger had gradually dissipated, so he said loudly: "My subordinates have been urging the lord to kill Gao Fei. It is indeed because Gao Fei will become a serious problem for the lord. If we do it as soon as possible, we can kill him."
This hidden danger can be eradicated as soon as possible. But what is written in the letter is indeed a different perspective. After reading it, my subordinates felt ashamed."
"What insights can a secret letter bring?" Wei Xu snorted coldly and said casually.
Chen Gong ignored Wei Xu and continued: "As written in the letter, after the defeat of the Yuan family, there will be a situation of two heroes coexisting in Hebei. The Lord is in the west and Gao Fei is in the east. But if you want to dominate the world,
The two armies are bound to cause disputes and hate each other. This is what I am worried about, so I would like to ask my lord to strike first. However, after reading this letter, I have another idea."
"What do you think?" Lu Bu asked.
"Cao Cao occupied Yanzhou and Xuzhou. When our army and Gao Fei attacked Jizhou, they contained a large number of Yuan Shao's troops. Cao Cao's eyesight was sharp. Once he learned that Jizhou was at war, he would immediately lead troops to attack Qingzhou.
, took the opportunity to occupy Qingzhou to expand their territory and gradually control the Central Plains. Our army and the Yan army have already tried their best to attack the Zhao army. If our army and the Yan army fight again, Cao Cao will inevitably be in the south of the Yellow River.
He will send troops to the north, or join forces with Gao Fei to destroy our army, or join forces with our army to destroy the Yan army. In short, no matter what choice he will make, from the situation point of view, it will be greatly disadvantageous to our army. Once
The whole of Hebei will definitely become Cao Cao's bag. Therefore, my subordinates' thoughts have changed and they believe that it is still necessary to get along with the Yan army in a friendly manner." Chen Gong said eloquently.
Lu Bu heard what Chen Gong said so thoroughly and felt that it made sense. At the same time, he also eliminated his doubts about Chen Gong and said loudly to Chen Gong: "Actually, I already knew it, so I don't want to start a war with Gao Fei."
Chen Gong was surprised. In his eyes, Lu Bu's political sense was very slow. How could he know such profound interests? But he still complimented him as always: "My lord is wise."
Wen Chou sneered in his heart and thought to himself: "I already knew it. There is another reason why you don't want to go to war with Gao Fei. You just can't wait for the treasures buried under the Zhaohou Mansion."
The misunderstanding was cleared, and Lu Bu immediately asked: "It seems that there is not one spy hidden in our army. Wei Xu has caught Ma Teng's spy. The person who framed the military advisor must have been sent by Gao Fei. He is afraid of my attack."
He, therefore, wanted to get rid of the military advisor first. But fortunately, I was wise enough not to be fooled. Wei Xu!"
"What are your orders, my lord?" Wei Xu said, cupping his fists.
Lu Bu said: "I will leave this matter to you to thoroughly investigate the spies in the army."
Wei Xu happily accepted the order and immediately said loudly: "I obey my orders."
Lu Bu then said: "The main force of our army is in Jizhou, leaving only Zhang Yang's 3,000 cavalry and 30,000 infantry to guard Bingzhou. The strength of Bingzhou is indeed empty. Regardless of whether Ma Teng's sneak attack on our army is true or not, our army
We must be prepared for any danger. Zhang Liao!"
"My subordinates are here!" Zhang Liao stepped out and cupped his fists.
"You lead ten thousand wolf cavalry and rush to Bingzhou quickly, and together with Zhang Yang, guard Shuofang, Wuyuan, Taiyuan, Shangjun and other places in case of any unexpected events." Lu Bu said.
Zhang Liao nodded and said, "I accept my order."
Chen Gongdao: "My lord, if you mobilize troops from here to Bingzhou, wouldn't Jizhou..."
"Don't worry, since Gao Fei can use this kind of alienation trick to drive a wedge between you and me, he must know the interests of our two armies. The Yan army has just finished the battle and the soldiers are exhausted. They must take a rest in a short time.
I will never start a war with our army.
Moreover, I am also preparing to make an alliance with Gao Fei, so that Cao Cao on the south bank of the Yellow River will not covet Hebei. Jizhou has a large population. As long as I am given two years, I will definitely train a brave army.
"Lu Bu said confidently.
Chen Gongdao: "My lord is wise!"
…
Guo Jia had just received fifty military sticks, but because Wei Xu had greeted him in advance, the two soldiers put thick things on Guo Jia's buttocks, and the blows with the military sticks were light, and basically did not hurt Guo Jia.
Chia's ass.
After receiving the beating, Guo Jia saw the two tired and sweating Lu Bu's soldiers and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Thanks to your care, my buttocks will not bloom."
One of the soldiers said: "You are relieved, but we two brothers are pitiful. We worked so hard to beat you with military sticks, and you didn't even make a symbolic cry."
Guo Jia smiled and said, "I'm sorry, you two. How about I treat you two to a drink?"
When the two soldiers heard that they were going to drink, they were naturally happy and followed Guo Jia back to his tent.
When Guo Jia first sneaked into the Jin army's camp, because there was no tent for him, he acted as a soldier on night duty and rested in the tent during the day. But after meeting Wei Xu, his position became captain of the soldiers.
, could have his own camp alone, so he took the two soldiers back to his camp.
The two soldiers were both old soldiers who had been with Lu Bu for many years and had a good relationship with Wei Xu. They knew that Wei Xu valued Guo Jia very much, so they praised him: "Brother Guo, you have to do a good job.
There will be a lot of money under General Wei. When you get rich in the future, don't forget about us."
"Definitely, definitely!"
After Guo Jia answered lightly, he first praised the two soldiers, and then poured wine for the two soldiers. After making the two soldiers half drunk, he began to ask them about Wen Chou and Gao Shun.
, about Zhang Liao, I want to know more about the characteristics and weaknesses of Wen Chou, Gao Shun, and Zhang Liao.
The two soldiers were drunk a lot by Guo Jia, and Youdao spoke the truth after drinking. They said everything, even the things they usually said when they were upset and cursed Lu Bu. Fortunately, Guo Jia just asked them for help.
It's not that he wanted to take their lives, otherwise, both of them would have died long ago.
Seeing that the two soldiers were drowsy and lying there drunkenly, Guo Jia sorted out the intelligence collected on Wen Chou, Gao Shun, and Zhang Liao, and thought to himself: "It's a bit tricky. It seems like we have to get it."
of these three people
It is much harder to trust than Wei Xu. The handover of Ye City will be tomorrow. The Lord will stay in Xindu City temporarily. Lu Bu must be lured to Sili before the Xianbei people attack Bingzhou! It seems that Ma Teng has to be
