Xiaoguangong

Chapter 267

Yes, I am Guan Ping.

Guan Ping's frankness caught Cao Pi by surprise, and even Sima Yi and Xin Pi didn't react. They stared blankly at Guan Ping, as if seeing a ghost in daylight.

Cao Xiu, who was temporarily acting as a bodyguard, was the first to react. He suddenly pulled out his saber, but just as he was holding the saber in his hand, he immediately thought of something, and slowly retracted the saber.

"Frankly, don't joke about military matters."

Guan Ping laughed and said:

"The king of Wei was joking with his ministers, and as a minister he naturally had to agree.

The appearance of the subject is determined by the king. If the king thinks that the subject is Guan Ping, so what? "

"you……"

Cao Pi's face was still pale, but he finally calmed down a little.

Without fear, Guan Ping calmly said:
"In the past, some people said that Yun's identity was fake, but Yun has meritorious service. He also beheaded Pan Zhang and fought Guan Ping. Chen Changwen was just hearsay and had some misunderstandings with Yun. Now he has become friends with Yun. We get along well with each other.”

"Before Ma Chao and Han Sui attacked, Ma Chao once said that he was the successor of Ma Yuan, and tried to say that I would join forces with him, and Han Sui even married his daughter to me, and asked me to join hands with him to achieve great things.

At that time, the late king was seriously ill, Zhong Quan was captured, and my army was trapped in Chang'an alone. If Kaicheng surrendered, I would be able to drink horses in the Yellow River now, and maybe I have already attacked the Central Plains for the bandits.

But I missed the entrustment of the former king, and knew that it is my responsibility to defend the land, so I persisted in Chang'an and fought hard for days, and finally repelled the thieves and captured Han Sui a few times.

Afterwards, when I heard that the late king was ill, I was even more anxious, and hurried back to Xudu, thinking that the scholar would die for his confidant.

Today I heard that Sun Quan's subordinate Lu Yi has secretly led his troops into Xuzhou, intending to do wrong things like Huo Jun, and Zang Xuangao was afraid of being punished and did not dare to leave without permission. He was charged with intentionally raising bandits. "

"I told him that the King of Wei is intelligent and wise, with a heart as big as the sea, and a clear insight, how could he blame his loyal ministers for such trivial matters.

Only then was Zang Ba convinced, and hurriedly led his army back to Xuzhou, so as not to let the thieves be as big as Huo Jun. This is a state matter, and the minister does not think he is at fault.

But if the king of Wei thinks that the subject is wrong, the subject will admit it, and ask the king of Wei to punish him, why should he insult the subject, but let the subject... let the subject sigh for a long time! "

Whether Guan Ping's passionate speech is true or not will not be said first, but every word and sentence hit Cao Pi like a raindrop of huge fists, but Cao Pi was unable to refute.

Cao Pi is not Cao Cao, he actually still has a lot of literati feelings in his bones, Yun Shan expressed his anger to him full of grievances, Cao Pi immediately felt ashamed and deep guilt, even though he could also feel that Yun Shan was The passage of persuading Zang Ba was full of nonsense, but he still got up immediately, hurried up, and said very sincerely:
"Tan Zhi, Gu...Gu has lost his word, please don't blame Tan Zhi."

Everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief.

They are all Cao Pi's hardcore thighs, and they don't want to see Cao Pi turn his back on his biggest army leader in this precarious situation. Neither of them likes to walk down the stairs. Now Cao Pi took the initiative to show A little bit of kindness is finally a good start.

Guan Ping saw that Cao Pi took the initiative to admit his mistake, but he also borrowed the donkey from the slope and bowed to Cao Pi to admit his mistake.

Cao Pi said embarrassingly:
"I had a misunderstanding with Tan Zhiduo before, and I just kept talking nonsense. It's not the way to be a king. Please don't blame Tan Zhi."

Cao Pi's attitude was indeed very good, and the surrounding civil and military people hurriedly gathered around and laughed together. At this moment, another urgent military matter happened to be delivered to Cao Pi. Without the slightest hesitation, Cao Pi dismantled it in front of Guan Ping. Open the letter and ask Sima Yi to read the contents of the letter to everyone.

This is the military information sent by General Zhenxi and former military adviser Chang Diao.

After Yang Xiu's death, the school affairs were returned to Chang Diao's control - of course, with Chang Diao's ability, it doesn't matter whether he has these people, but this identity has brought him a lot of convenience, and he once followed and betrayed Chang Diao Lu Hong, who took refuge in Yang Xiu, was also embarrassed to go back. Fortunately, under Yunshan's command, he acted as a ventilator between Yunshan and Chang Diao.

Chang Diao was able to legally access almost all of Cao Wei's secret military information, which allowed Guan Ping to easily understand most of Cao Jun's secrets, and he knew every move in the future as clearly as if he opened the whole map. Before Sima Yi opened his mouth to read, he already knew the contents of the letter.

"Chang Junshi urgently reported that Ma Chao and Han Sui have been mobilized again. It seems that there is an intention to invade the east. Please deal with it quickly to prevent Guanzhong from falling into the hands of the enemy again."

The scale of Ma Chao and Han Sui's invasion before was quite astonishing. Except for Cao Cao's personal conquest, no one dared to resist their sharpness. Even a famous general like Xia Houyuan and Cao Ren could only quickly withdraw from Guanzhong to prevent being surrounded by the enemy.

They had suffered heavy losses before, but if they could still draw troops from the Western Regions, Cao Jun could not deal with them at will.

Sima Yi said quickly:
"The king of Wei, in the opinion of his ministers, should ask General Yun to return to Chang'an as soon as possible to preside over the important event."

Simpi also immediately echoed:

"I believe that General Yun is both wise and brave, and General Chang's hands and eyes are open to the sky. With these two in command, the Guanzhong will be safe."

Cao Zhen and Cao Xiu immediately saluted and bowed down, saying that this battle can only be won by relying on Yunshan's command of the army, and please quickly order Yunshan to return to Guanzhong to preside over the big event so that he can be safe and sound.

Guan Ping noticed that the corners of Cao Pi's mouth twitched a few times when everyone was talking, and there was a trace of discontent and contempt in his eyes, but not the slightest panic.

Instead, he seemed slightly mocking.

Combining the previous feedback from Lu Hong, Guan Ping can already guess that there must be Cao Pi's means behind the so-called Ma Chao and Han Sui invasion.

Sure enough, Cao Pi looked around and said calmly and proudly:
"Ma Chao and Han Sui have become bandits, so there is nothing to be afraid of. It's just the beginning of spring, and there is a shortage of rice in Hudi. They just gathered thousands of sick, weak, old men and strong men to loot them. If this matter cannot be settled, it will be a thousand miles away. Going to Guanzhong to sit in the town, wouldn't it make the bandits laugh at me that there is no one in the Central Plains?"

He threw a friendly smile at Yunshan, then nodded solemnly:
"Let Ding Fei, Lieutenant of the Dian Army, be the general protecting the Qiang Zhonglang, and take charge of the military forces in Yongzhou with Chang Diao, um... let my uncle sit in Chang'an in Yiyuan, and everything will be safe."

Cao Pi didn't pay much attention to Ma Chao and Han Sui, but after much deliberation, he still sent the harmless general Xiahou Dun to make up for Ding Fei's lack of qualifications.

This dispatch made the quick-witted Sima Yi quickly come to his senses. It seems that the so-called Han Sui Ma Chao invasion was planned by Cao Pi.

It is false to defend against Han Sui and Ma Chao, but Cao Pi's goal is to slowly infiltrate the previously extremely dilapidated Guanzhong in the name of and gradually grasp it in his own hands.

When Zhong Yao was a lieutenant of Sili before, because the military power was not in his own hands, he naturally did not dare to presumptuously appoint personnel. Now that Yunshan is in the hands of Cao Pi, his subordinates naturally dare not refuse Cao Pi's personnel arrangements.

Anyway, it is to fight against Han Sui and Ma Chao's overall situation, I believe everyone can understand.

This arrangement is quite subtle, and your Cao Pi's ability may not be able to come up with such a method, that is to say, after Cao Pi went crazy before, he asked an expert to give advice.

Well, if it's that person, there should be powerful backhands behind him.

Next, it depends on how Yunshan should deal with it.

Guan Ping looked at Cao Pi's confident appearance, and smiled and said:
"The king of Wei is wise, I must listen to the orders of the king of Wei. In the past, all the generals under his command could be dispatched by General Ding at will. Everything is a matter of great importance to the king of Wei."

Cao Pi was finally satisfied with Yun Shan's answer, and couldn't help showing a hint of complacency in his eyes.

It seems that although Yunshan is not forgiving, he only has this means.

Leaving Guanzhong and the soldiers he trained carefully, even if Yunshan is really Guan Ping, he will not be able to make any big waves.

Cao Pi had already made up his plan before, and when he saw Yunshan calmly let go of his army, he immediately gave a sweet date.

"Gu not letting General Yun return to Guanzhong is of course an important matter. I have been delaying it before, but now I think about it."

Cao Pi looked at Yunshan with a pleasing expression, and said softly:
"When I was in Nanyang before, that Huo Jun followed General Yun, right?"

"That's right." Guan Ping nodded and said, "Huo Jun was originally under Cai Mao's command, and was once borrowed by Mr. Cai to serve as a general under my command. Later, because he was dissatisfied with my joining the court, he gathered a crowd to riot. King Wei knew about this."

"Not bad." Cao Pi said emotionally, "It was 14 years ago in Jian'an, and I always feel that many years have passed since it hasn't been a long time. I can't imagine that the grassroots can grow rapidly, and now they are occupying Funiu Mountain and making frequent nuisances." In Wancheng, the people are in dire straits, and the imperial court's government orders are incomprehensible.

General Yun also knows that Wancheng is the gateway to the Central Plains, an important place in the north and south, this person will not help me sleep and eat.

I would like to use the general as the general who conquers the south, and together with General Le Jin, he will be in charge of the military forces in Jingzhou, wipe out Huo Jun and other thieves in one fell swoop, eradicate those so-called bases one by one, and restore the smooth flow of government orders.

General Le's temper also knows that if someone else goes, General Le may be dissatisfied, but General Yun and General Le are on good terms, and this trip to the south will surely be a success. "

Sima Yi was still guessing who was behind Cao Pi's idea before, but now there is no need to doubt it. Only the old thief Jia Xu can come up with such a bad idea.

Now everyone knows that Huo Jun was cultivated and grown by Cao Pi in the past, so as to leave a counterattack force for him not to be able to succeed King Wei in the future.

But now that Cao Pi has succeeded, Huo Jun has become quite a headache.

Huo Jun has the shadow of Cai Mao behind him, and Ma Di who is now restraining Huo Jun for Cao Pi also has the support of Le Jin and Ma Liang behind him. In addition, Huo Jun's base area has won the hearts of the people, it can be said to be like an iron bucket.

If Yunshan can't use his own lineage to conquer and suppress the powerful enemy who looks like a bandit at the moment, he will definitely suffer a big loss. At that time, Ding Fei can easily quell the non-existent Han Sui and Ma Chao rebellion, and Yunshan will be in Huo Jun If his subordinates eat turtles, it can naturally show that his abilities are nothing more than that.

If Yunshan could really eradicate Huo Jun and his bases one by one, it would be nothing more than eliminating a group of slightly stronger bandits, and his credit would definitely be far less than that of Ding Fei who defeated Han Sui and Ma Chao.

After this series of means, Cao Pi has already grasped Yunshan tightly. Yunshan is exhausted like fighting a fire, but he still cannot control an army that truly belongs to him. The best ending is to become an official in the court. A Jiuqing and his good brother-in-law will take care of the elderly, which can't be regarded as treating him badly.

Sima Yi admired this trick very much, but he was even more dissatisfied with Cao Pi's attitude.

Cao Pi didn't come to ask these old brothers about things like calculating Yunshan, but instead asked Jia Xu, the murderer who killed his own brother, this kind of person...

There was a glint of fierceness in his eyes, and he felt that the friendship between himself and Cao Pi had weakened a bit. He cast his sympathetic eyes on Yunshan, and sincerely hoped that Yunshan could get through this difficulty as soon as possible.

"General Yun, please don't refuse this matter." Cao Pi said with a smile.

Guan Ping also smiled and nodded, solemnly said:
"Shan never refuses when it comes to family and country matters. Please rest assured, King Wei."

"Okay! This king really did not misunderstand the general. If the general returns from a great victory, I will have a drink with the general alone!"
