Xiaoguangong

Chapter 114 Tell me
School Affairs is a very mysterious organization in Cao Jun.

In theory, this organization is a group of gendarme-like military police who maintain military discipline, and special soldiers in the picket army.But Cao Jun had too many enemies, and the investigation of school affairs was very useful, so Cao Cao gave this position more power, and the power of school affairs began to expand.

But the problem is that Cao Cao has been unable to solve the candidate for the helm of the school affairs department.

No one wants to be watched by others. People who sit in this position are easily attacked by groups. Only those who are absolutely loyal, smart, and secretive can take up the position.Cao Jun's morale was not upright in the first place, and with such a large amount of power, it was easy to fill his pockets and attack dissidents, so he should be more cautious in such a position.

In the past, Guo Jia used his identity as a military sacrificial wine to secretly command the school affairs, investigate the anti-Cao, assassinate the enemy, and collect all the information in an orderly manner, like a prophet.But after Guo Jia's death, Cao Cao couldn't find a suitable school commander. This time, the Southern Expedition simply left the job to Cao Ren, who was born in the market, and asked him to supervise the security issues in Jiangling.

Cao Ren did suppress a group of lawbreakers in Jiangling City with his powerful big brother aura, and successfully completed part of the tasks, but his ability in this area was limited.

How should I understand Sun Liu's specific arrangement in Jingzhou?How many people does Zhou Yu have now?Is Sun Quan currently preparing for the Northern Expedition or the Western Expedition?How is Liu Bei doing?What about Guan Yu, Le Jin, Xu Huang and the others?

In the past, what Guo Jia was best at was to find out some unnoticed news from a pile of complicated information, and judge the enemy's movements like fortune-telling.Cao Ren knew that he didn't have this kind of ability at all. After thinking about it for a while, he decided to subcontract this job to his most loyal guard, Chang Diao.

It stands to reason that it is a good thing that Cao Ren trusts him so much, but Chang Diao also knows that he is not such a material at all. If he fails to achieve results, not only will he not be rewarded, he will have to be punished heavily, which is very bad.

After thinking about it, he could only sneak into Xu Shu's mansion on a dark and windy night.

Before Cao Cao's Eastern Expedition, he originally wanted to take Xu Shu with him, but before he left, Xu Shu was severely injured by Chang Diao, so he had to be thrown in Jiangling to recuperate.This allowed Xu Shu to avoid Cao Jun's defeat perfectly, and he was really relaxed for a while. Thanks to Xu Shu's guidance, Chang Diao also avoided Guan Ping's desperate interception early, which made the relationship between the two of them quite tacit now.

That night, Chang Diao brought two pieces of stinky bacon into Xu Shu's house, and humbly asked Xu Shu about school affairs.

In order to avoid Cao Cao's Eastern Expedition, Xu Shu really used the bitter trick to the extreme. Now he is still scarred and scarred.

"The giant eagle believes me?"

"Of course I believe Mr. Xu!"

Of course Chang Diao was not stupid enough to completely trust Xu Shu.

Before Xu Shu ordered himself to escape, it was obvious that he had no loyalty to Cao Jun at all, but what did this have to do with Chang Diao.

Xu Shu was injured by him, but Xu Shu let him do it, which shows that Xu Shu believed in him.

Xu Shu, who had experienced the disillusionment of his ideals and the pain of losing his mother, is now a little abnormal in his mind. Chang Diao insisted that he was doing a good deed and helping Xu Shu heal his inner pain.

After staring at each other for a long time, Xu Shu finally showed a frank smile.

This time he smiled quite elegantly, faintly making people feel a little sincere.

"Okay." Xu Shu's thin fingers lightly rubbed the dirty and tattered table in front of him, he breathed in the air full of blood and herbs, and said calmly, "Does the giant eagle want to be an official?"

"miss you!"

"Okay, to be an official, you have to be knowledgeable or brave. What kind of giant eagle do you have?"

You really deserve a beating, don't you...

The muscles on Chang Diao's face twitched wildly a few times.

He has no knowledge, and his martial arts are not bad, but he definitely has nothing to do with the word brave. Xu Shu is disgusting himself.

Xu Shu smiled lightly:
"If you don't have knowledge or bravery, then you have to please your superiors, make friends with your colleagues, and let everyone speak well of you, so that you can advance step by step. Even if you have no fighting ability, you can still be a general!"

"This," Chang Diao's heart skipped a beat, but then he thought of something, "This, what does this have to do with school affairs?"

"Of course it has something to do with it." Xu Shu said calmly, "Cao Jun...uh, who is the commander-in-chief of our army in Jingzhou?"

"Of course it's General Zixiao..."

"Think about it again?"

"Uh." Chang Diao slapped his thigh suddenly, "Thank you Mr. Xu for your guidance!"

Xu Shu narrowed his eyes and nodded slowly, praising:
"Ruzi can be taught."

Dangyang's Man Chong has been trying to meet Cao Ren. After seeing Cao Jun's victory, he hastened to send someone to inform Le Jin of the good news, hoping that Le Jin can advance south as soon as possible, open up the connection with Jiangling, and completely crush Jiangdong's invasion plan.

After Ke Lejin received the letter, he could only complain repeatedly, saying that it was really not that he was unwilling to rescue Cao Ren, but that the objective situation did not allow it.

The eastern outskirts of Xiangyang, an island in the Hanshui River on the east side of Xianshan Mountain (the Han River changed course, and the location of Caizhou is no longer in the Han River, but on the east bank of the Han River).This island is full of Cai Mao's family. Cai Mao's power was not damaged when Cao Jun was defeated in Chibi. Hurry up and send someone to appease Cai Mao, for fear that Cai Mao will steal his home when he crosses the river north.

Le Jin sending a small force to the south is equivalent to sending Guan Yu's military merits for nothing. If the large army goes out by water, Le Jin and Cai Mao can't help but take the back route and take Xiangyang first.

He is not afraid of Cai Mao if he travels by land, but Le Jin has already tried it. If he himself leaves Xiangyang City for a while, there will definitely be barbarians rebelling.

Even Guan Yu was not afraid of Le Jin's travels. When encountering a rebellion, his general strategy was to go out and wash out those barbarian villages.

But Xiangyang is full of contiguous mountains, and the few flat lands are occupied by several powerful families. Le Jin could only persuade these wealthy families to give way a little while holding back his temper. in the mountains.

Ma Liang, an expert on the barbarians, said that the barbarians in Xiangyang have been steadily improving. Expedition and suppression are not the way to go. What the barbarians value most is small favors. As long as they benefit them from time to time, they will respectfully worship the great man Tianwei in a few years Under the circumstances, he became a loyal servant of the big man.

Well, it's hard to say in a few years, anyway, this year is enough, unless we increase our efforts to benefit the barbarians, give them money and goods, and have to endure the occasional provocations of those barbarians.

Le Jin almost knelt down to these barbarians, unable to form effective support at all.

And at this moment, he received another letter that added fuel to the fire——

The content of the letter is very simple. Cao Zhi said that he was going to send troops to break Guan Yu's obstruction. It doesn't matter if Le Jin doesn't send troops. Cao Zhi and Man Chong are enough to defeat Guan Yu, and Le Jin just needs to give some food and money.

"Bastard! What nonsense!"

Le Jin confirmed that Cao Zhi had never discussed this matter with Man Chong.

Full of pets, both civil and military, flexible in combat, it is not impossible for him to fight Guan Yu, but with the burden of Cao Zhi, the difficulty of combat has suddenly increased a lot.

Cao Zhi's arrogance between the lines made Le Jin very uncomfortable. He felt as if he was blowing his nose with the letter without saying a word.

But after much deliberation, he decided to call his trusted adviser Ma Liang to ask him first.

Recently, Ma Liang and Le Jin are fighting fiercely. Le Jin is uneducated. Those literati in the Central Plains have always despised him. Ma Liang, who is good at communicating with barbarians, will naturally not despise Le Jin. Le Jin admired him quite a lot.

He spread the letter in front of Ma Liang, looking eagerly at the white-browed young man:
"Look, what kind of bullshit is this Cao Zhi writing!"

Ma Liang also showed a trace of disdain after reading Cao Zhi's letter:
"It seems that he and Tan Zhi don't get along well."

Cao Zhi only mentioned Yunshan in the letter, and others praised a captain named Huo Jun, and sketched a pretty good blueprint - music in, food out, weapons, and other things just leave it to Cao Zhi .

"What do you think, the general?" Ma Liang asked back with a smile.

"Oh." Le Jin smiled disdainfully, with a trace of worry on his face, "If it was someone else, I would advise him to fight with Guan Yun. But he is the son of Mr. Cao, and he is still the most favored Son, if he dies, I can only plead guilty, so how can I have a better life?

I am going to write back to him, telling him to either go back quickly, or obey Tan Zhi's orders, and stop fighting to death. "

"What if he was killed by Cai Mao?"

"No way. After all, he is in Jingzhou. As long as he dies, I will bear the responsibility in the end."

Ma Liang smiled and said, "Does that mean that if Cao Zhi made meritorious service in Jingzhou, the credit is also the general's?"

"That's natural." Le Jin said, "Even if he takes all the credit, will the prime minister believe it?"

"Isn't this easy to handle?" Ma Liang said confidently, "Isn't it enough to let Cao Zhi defeat Guan Yu?"

Yue Jin:……

What if Guan Yu doesn't cooperate?
Ma Liang said patiently:

"The general doesn't know how to fight this battle, although it depends on the three armies to fight, but at the same time, we must also consider the writing of the battle report.

The words chopping, leveling, fixing, and removing are absolutely unusable, but why can't they be broken, struck, challenged, and conquered?We fought hard, no credit but hard work, I believe Guan Yu will not make things difficult for me. "

He was obedient and listened to the sound, Le Jin was not a fool, he could not help but get furious when he heard that Ma Liang's voice clearly wanted him to do his own work.

"Nonsense!" He grabbed Ma Liang by the collar, wishing he could lift him up immediately, "The prime minister has entrusted me with a big task. If I don't fight, Jingzhou will be in danger! You should teach me good strategies, why teach me such ghosts?" means!"

Le Jin's eyes widened with anger, his face full of ferocity, wishing to swallow Ma Liang in one gulp, but Ma Liang was not afraid, instead he smiled more gently:
"Where does the general live now?"

"This general is the Grand Administrator of Xiangyang, General Zhechong, and Marquis of Guangchang Ting!"

"Oh, I'd like to ask you, Xiangyang prefect or Jingzhou Mu, which one is the official guarding Jingzhou?
General Zhechong, General Zhengnan, and General Zhennan, which one is the main general who is fighting against rebellion in Jingzhou? "

Le Jin snorted coldly: "I, Le Jin, am a humble person. The court entrusted me with a big matter. You use this matter to separate people. Can you say that I am doing such a ghostly thing? Ji Chang underestimated me too much!"

Ma Liang laughed and said:

"Okay, I did not misunderstand the general, but that's why I want to persuade the general to listen to me.

This is my common wish with Tanzhi. "

"Tanzhi?" Le Jin had a very good impression of Yunshan, and put Ma Liang down casually, but his face was still gloomy, "Tell me, if you can't say good or bad, be careful, I will turn my face and deny anyone!"
