Xiaoguangong

Chapter 257 Going to Xudu

Xia Houba's heart was pounding.

Even though Yunshan was much younger than him, Xia Houba felt that Yunshan was an insurmountable wall in front of him because of the mighty majesty and extraordinary qualities that Yunshan displayed.

Under the traditional model of the Cao clan controlling the army, Xiahouba should assume the responsibility of being the actual leader of the military and government. However, because Cao Ren and Xiahouyuan were not able to defend Guanzhong at the beginning, they are now handing over the big responsibility to their relative Yunshan.

We all know that foreign relatives are very dangerous. If Yunshan has any wrong thoughts, Xia Houba doesn't even have the ability to counter him for the time being.

This time when Cao Cao asked Yunshan to go to Xudu, it meant that Yunshan would temporarily give up the army in his hands. The arrangement before he left was very critical. Xiahouba was very nervous, for fear that Yunshan would take him down with a loud shout, and then Like Le Jin, he claims to be the shepherd of Yongzhou, and he will not leave here.

Yun Shan's posture was quite gentle, he asked Xia Houba to sit down, and said earnestly like an elder:
"I also heard these days that when Ma Chao and Han Sui invaded and Chang'an was in a hurry, General Ling Zun Miaocai was unwilling to let me wait deep into the Jedi, so Zhong Quan was left behind to meet me.

This time the war was a complete victory, and the people were finally rescued from the hands of these thieves. Although outsiders don't know Zhong Quan's contribution, I know it well.

This time I'm leaving, it's time to return Zhong Quan to everything here. "

Xiahouba was stunned for a moment, then quickly waved his hands:
"Don't dare, the general is the governor of Yongzhou, who supervises all the military forces in Yongzhou. He is only a small soldier. The previous battle was still in the hands of Ma Chao. It was only by the general's efforts to escape and ascend to heaven.

Now that the war is over, the general is just returning to Xudu, if everything here is entrusted to me, wouldn't it seem that I want...I want to seize power while the general is away..."

Xiahouba's words really came from the bottom of his heart.

Although Xiahou's family is Cao Cao's hardcore, Xiahouyuan and Xiahoudun's character is really nothing to say.

Xia Houyuan's education for his son is also quite good. In Xiahouba's understanding, respecting talents and paying attention to repaying kindness are the most basic principles of life.

He was accidentally captured by Ma Chao with a single move before, and Yunshan spent a lot of effort to redeem him. The grace of saving his life made him unwilling to trip Yunshan even though Ding Fei was already more or less Few have hinted at him, saying that they should join hands to slowly take away the power of Yunshan to ensure that the entire territory of Yongzhou is truly in the hands of Cao Jun. Xiahouba, on the contrary, made Xiahouba quite entangled in his heart.

General Yun is so upright, I dare to miss his soldiers and horses, such a villain's behavior, just thinking about it makes people uncomfortable...

He was a little confused for a while, Guan Ping said slowly:
"Chen Qun and Chen Changwen didn't get along with me before, but his talent, learning and character are all very outstanding. With this person leading the army, he can help Zhongquan solve many difficult problems.

In particular, the priests in our current army can read and write, and teach them the responsibility of fighting for the country and defending the country, so that we can train an elite soldier.

I have heard it for a long time, that many years ago, General Ling Zun Miaocai would rather starve to death of his own flesh and blood in a catastrophe year, but also support his brother's daughter.

If you can treat the Guanzhong soldiers kindly like your father, and treat them like relatives and friends, if Ma Chao and Han Sui come to attack again in the future, you can sit in the city and send Wenpin Shendan to fight. escape. "

"Among the big man's opponents for 400 years, there are many murderers like Ma Chao who are good at riding and martial arts, but they all fell into the hands of the big man, and none of them is my opponent.

Why?It's not that our Han army was brave and fearless before, and everyone was willing to fight to defend their home and country.

If you can do this, I will have no worries about going here. "

"General..."

Xiahouba was moved in his heart, and his voice trembled slightly.

It was a year of catastrophe, even Xiahouyuan's family was starved, food was limited, everyone only cared about themselves, how could they care about brothers and sisters?Let alone a woman who is not considered a hard worker.

But Xia Houyuan wanted his brother's daughter to survive, and distributed the food that should have been given to his youngest son one by one. His niece survived, but his youngest son unfortunately passed away due to the torture of hunger.

This matter has always been a regret in Xia Houyuan's heart. He was unwilling to say anything about it at all, but the niece he saved is now Zhang Fei's wife. Madam Xiahou told her childhood stories more than once, and this incident greatly touched Guan Ping. , I admire Xia Houyuan's tragic and heroic deeds very much.

When he talked about this now, his admiration really came from the bottom of his heart, and Xia Houba even nodded repeatedly, feeling that General Yunshan was really his family's confidant.

"The general is just going to Xudu..."

"Hey, everyone has to prepare for the worst.

A certain is just a reckless person who joined the army at the recommendation of General Le. Because of the care of the prime minister and General Le, he was lucky enough to be in the position he is today.

Now that the prime minister is in such a state, if I continue to lead the army to hang in Yongliang, I will be criticized sooner or later, so why not... Hey, retreat early and bravely while I still have some merits. "

"As long as Zhongquan trains his soldiers well, respects famous people, and discusses with Chang Junshi more often when encountering difficulties, great things will be accomplished. Han Sui and Ma Chao will be wiped out, and he will be regarded as a generation of famous generals and famous people in history. At that time, no matter where Yunshan is Xu Du's soul is still returning to the underworld, so everyone should applaud Zhong Quan's attack!"

"General..."

Xiahouba's eyes were covered with tears.

He didn't know that when Yunshan encountered difficulties many times before, he used the method of retreating to advance, but instead won greater benefits for himself.

Seeing that Yunshan spoke sincerely and was thinking of himself in everything, he felt even more frustrated and blamed himself.

Such a man of benevolence and righteousness, I actually had the idea of ​​plotting against him before, I really deserve to die, I am really ashamed of my father's teachings.

He bit his lip and said firmly:
"General, don't worry, I will live up to the general's entrustment.

When the general returns to Guanzhong, I will fight side by side with the general to defeat the bandits and regain Liangzhou! "

Kuai Yue, who was on the side, couldn't help but nodded slightly when he saw Xia Houba being so upbeat.

He had ambushed his backhand before, if Xiahouba refused to go on the road, Kuai Yue must find a way to collude with Ma Chao's remnants, and find a suitable opportunity for Xiahouba to die suddenly.

Now, there is much less trouble. With Xia Houba's identity, Kuai Yue can trap Ding Fei to death in Guanzhong with a little bit of tricks.

Hmph, a common man still wants to fight with us, if we are in a hurry, we will play Fire Dragon Burning Cang for you again.

.

Seeing that Guan Ping was really going to Xudu, Chang Diao turned pale with fright and hurried forward to stop him.

"You're crazy!" He sneaked up in the seeing-off team while no one was prepared, and whispered, "General Guan, do you really think of yourself as Yunshan? No one would recognize you in Xudu, but Prime Minister Cao would recognize you." ! At that time, if he suddenly turns his face and takes you down, you will not be able to kill you even if you have three heads and six arms!
Let me tell you the truth, this Ding Fei has big plans, and he will definitely find a way to slowly occupy your army after you leave.

Fortunately, you still need to use some means to conspire with your army, but you just hand over all your subordinates to Xia Houba, isn't that...

Hey, even if you can come back, what else can you do?Don't you restore the Han Dynasty? "

"Oh? Why does Chang Junshi care about us so much? I can't tell that Chang Junshi is still a pure minister of the Han Dynasty!"

"Of course I'm a big man and a pure minister." Chang Diao winked and said, "I'm doing this for your own good, you have to think carefully about it!"

Chang Diao is not stupid, he knows that when Yunshan is in Guanzhong, Ding Fei still has to win him over to deal with Yunshan. If Yunshan leaves, Ding Fei will have no opponent, and he will definitely find a way to deal with Chang Diao, so as to dominate Guanzhong thought.

In Cao Cao's plans for the future, Ding Fei is definitely not fighting alone, and most of the officials sent to Guanzhong must have certain connections with Ding Fei.

When the time comes to deal with Ma Chao, Chang Diao, the general of Zhenxi, will be at the forefront, and Chang Diao will bear the blame, but he will share the credit with them, which Chang Diao is absolutely unwilling to do.

It would be best, it would be best if Yunshan could maintain a vassal model like Le Jin who neither rebelled nor obeyed the court, so Chang Diao, the general of Zhenxi, would rise in status. At least Ding Fei and Xiahouba wanted to plot Yunshan Sometimes it is necessary to rely on Chang Diao's status.

Guan Ping was very helpless to this Chang Junshi who had no talent but had climbed to a high position due to various chances and coincidences, but he always cared about himself, so he could only whisper:
"Military Master Chang, don't worry, I will return to Guanzhong sooner or later, and I will wait to help the Han Dynasty together with the military master."

"Really?" Chang Diao breathed a sigh of relief, "You have internal support in Xu? Oh, I know it must be Xu Shu and Xu Yuanzhi, right?"

Guan Ping laughed and said, "How do you know that Cao Pi is not my internal agent?"

He was just joking and casually saying that Chang Diao was happy, but he did not expect Chang Diao to nod heavily:
"High, it is high!"

.

Cao Cao's condition was no longer optimistic, Guan Ping moved towards Xudu non-stop, and he kept inquiring about Cao Cao's many opponents along the way.

With the consent of Chang Diao, the former military adviser and General Zhenxi who commanded the school affairs, Cao Jun's known information was unilaterally transparent to Yunshan.

It is said that Sun Quan has already presented a letter of surrender to Cao Cao, promising that he will never cause chaos again.Cao Cao conquered Jiangdong in name.

In the area of ​​Wancheng, because of Cao Pi's departure, the thieves led by Huo Jun have grown stronger again. It is said that a large number of base areas have been opened up, and countless people have joined the thieves, which caused the court a headache.

In Hanzhong, Zhang Lu has temporarily repelled the combination of Cao Zhi and Zhang Yun with sufficient preparations, and now his morale has increased greatly, causing Liu Zhang's fear.

Under Liu Zhang's counselor Zhang Songfazheng's suggestion, Liu Zhang decided to ask Liu Bei to enter Shu to jointly deal with Zhang Lu's threat.

Now that Cao Cao was dying, his main opponents temporarily stopped their attacks.

In Yunshan, he knew that as long as the news of Cao Cao's death came, the short-term tranquility of the world would be quickly broken.

For this, he needs more power and status. When he goes to Xudu this time, he wants to have a good talk with Cao Pi about the future.

If Cao Pi has other thoughts, he doesn't mind using Cao Zhi in his hand.

All of this depends on whether the trip to Xudu goes smoothly.
