Xiaoguangong

Chapter 361
To be honest, Le Jin doesn't even know how Yunshan is progressing.

He had thought that Yunshan was still fighting Han Sui in the Guanzhong area, but after hearing Huan Jie's narration, he was shocked to realize that the battle in Yunshan had gone so smoothly, even reaching Liangzhou!He set off with a large army, and Liangzhou had been in decline for a long time, so he must rely on Xiahou Dun behind him to dispatch military supplies for him.

If Xiahou Dun suspected Yunshan and cut off his supply, then Yunshan's entire army in Liangzhou would immediately fall into a situation of isolation and helplessness, and would be slowly eaten up in the end.

Seeing that Le Jin didn't know about Yunshan's march, Huan Jie took the opportunity to provoke and said:

"Don't the general know about General Yun's march? It's been half a year, and everyone in the world knows about it. I thought the general knew... this..."

There was a contemptuous smile on Ma Liang's face, and then he bowed down and said:

"My lord, this is the fault of Liang's laziness. Although Liang explained this matter in the report before, he didn't remind the general from time to time. At that time, a certain man thought that Han Sui and Ma Chao's defeat in Guanzhong was no longer a good thing. General Yun led the crowd to chase The poor bandits in Liangzhou will definitely win a big victory.

If the general blames him, his subordinates are willing to accept the punishment. "

Le Jin knew that he was really lazy recently, and he didn't even bother to read the reports of Ma Liang and others. Anyway, this is not a big deal, so he immediately waved his hand and said with a pleasant face:
"What's the crime for such a trivial matter? Han Sui and Ma Chao have already become rogues after their defeat in Guanzhong. Does Tan Zhi need to let me know from time to time when he wiped out a few rogues?"

Seeing that the provocation was unsuccessful, Huan Jie's expression became even more serious.

He looked at Ma Liang and knew that this person was the key. Le Jin was controlled more deeply than he imagined. If Ma Liang hadn't let go, the plan to attack Sun Quan would be impossible anyway. After Sun Quan broke through Hefei, he might It will directly break the Central Plains, and will not give the Luoyang Chinese Army any chance to redeploy.

The situation is very critical!

Le Jin didn't understand the situation, he waved Huan Jie to step back first, and then discussed carefully with Ma Liang.

Huan Jie retreated into the courtyard helplessly, circling back and forth anxiously. After a long time, Ma Liang saluted and withdrew. He hurried up to meet him and grabbed Ma Liang's palm.

"Ji Chang, can I take a step to speak?"

Seeing that Huan Jie was sweating profusely in such a cold weather, Ma Liang couldn't help sneering:
"Bo Xu, you are also from Jingzhou. When I was young, I admired your integrity. Why is this so? It's a bit less elegant."

Huan Jie could hear the strong irony in Ma Liang's voice, but he didn't bother to argue, so he hurriedly said:

"Sun Quan has revealed the identity of General Yun, and has betrayed the alliance between Sun and Liu. Are you willing to let this kind of villain sweep the Central Plains and kidnap the emperor?"

Ma Liang flicked his long sleeves and said coldly:
"What is Bo Xu talking about? I, Ma Liang, am a pure minister of the Han Dynasty, and I am also loyal to the King of Wei. What does the status of General Yun and the Sun Liu alliance have to do with me?"

Huan Jie smiled bitterly and said:
"At this point, don't hide it from me! Ji Chang's tricks, Le Jin, the fierce general back then, was manipulated into such a appearance by you and others. If Uncle Liu Huang can make the Northern Expedition, the king of Wei will have no power to resist.

Now that the king of Wei is quite in decline, Uncle Liu's biggest opponent has become Sun Quan. Since Sun Quan is so ruthless, why should Ji Chang care about his previous affection?It is better to immediately let General Le send his army eastward and go down the river to eliminate Sun Quan, lest this person invade the Central Plains and make the emperor dust again. "

Ma Liang looked at Huan Jie who was anxiously trying to persuade himself, and couldn't help laughing out for a long time: "Do you think that I, Ma, is good and can be deceived, and that I can make Ma work for you with just a few words?

Hey, you also played for Sun Jian back then, and you were quite popular. Why is it that you voted for Cao Pi now?Well, even if I am under the command of Uncle Liu Huang, and now Sun Zhongmou is attacking the Central Plains in the north, and wants to help the Han Dynasty, if we take the opportunity to wave our troops and attack, we will win for a while. Scrubbing the notoriety? "

Huan Jie became more and more anxious, but he didn't know how to persuade Ma Liang, so he could only nod silently, speechless for a while.

Seeing Huan Jie's anxious look, Ma Liang persuaded him patiently:
"Bo Xu, you are also from Jingzhou. Back then Liu Biao was incompetent and unworthy to be the Lord of Jingzhou. I can understand that you abandoned him and left.

Now if you are willing to come back, I will set up a drink in person and ask Cai Shijun to congratulate you, and we will do great things together in the future. "

Huan Jie was not very loyal to the Cao family, but although he was from Jingzhou, he always felt that the aristocratic families in Jingzhou could not stand on the stage, and those in the Central Plains could represent the civilization and orthodoxy of the great Han. He did not expect that Ma Liang would turn his head around and be a The lobbyist persuaded him, and couldn't help but laugh.

But after all, he wanted something from Ma Liang, so he could only nod his head again and again, and said with a wry smile:
"Back then... hey, I don't want to say much about what happened back then. But Ji Chang, you have to believe that I, Huan Jie, was a pure and good minister of the great man. I have never done anything harmful to the sky and reason in so many years, and I have always had a good friendship with Liu Huangshu back then.

If Uncle Liu Huang won the world, I would naturally be happy and excited, but Sun Quan... hmph, but relying on his father and brother Yu Yin's repeated villains, if he enters the Central Plains, I really can't tolerate it.

Hefei has few soldiers, and Luoyang's army is difficult to defend outside. Now Sun Quan should have already thought about the matter of falling out with Uncle Liu, so he deliberately revealed the identity of General Yun. "

"General Yun killed Liangzhou people so hard, if he was cut off from military supplies at this juncture, I'm afraid it would be difficult to deal with.

General Le and General Yun get along very well, General Yun was single-handedly promoted by General Le, if General Le can lead the army to the east, he will definitely be able to fight for General Yun..."

He spoke quickly, seeing the expression on Ma Liang's face became more playful, and his voice gradually lowered again.

Le Jin and dispatching troops can wash away Guan Ping's suspicion. How did Huan Jie say this, and he thinks Ma Liang can believe it.

It seems that this talented man from Jingzhou still wants to treat the Jingzhou fellows as fools.

Ma Liang brushed the dust off his body slowly, and said calmly:

"Okay, Bo Xu, don't try to persuade me.

For the sake of Jingzhou people, let me give you a face, you can go back. "

"The thing about sending troops?"

"It's all General Le's decision. General Le has already decided to send troops to the east. What he decides, we as subordinates can only obey."

"what?"

Huan Jie didn't expect that after talking for a long time, Le Jin had already decided to send troops.

This was far beyond his expectations. With Ma Liang's ability to control Le Jin, when the two of them discussed alone before, they must have strongly advocated sending troops.

What a good Ma Liang, I don't know what he is thinking...

"I will try my best to deal with General Yun's matter, so that General Yun's reputation will not be damaged." Huan Jie hurriedly said gratefully.

"Bo Xu, I still have something to ask you."

"Ji Chang, but it's okay to say."

"You already know a lot of things, why do you still do this?"

Huan Jie had already guessed that Le Jin was controlled by Ma Liang, and also guessed Yun Shan's identity, but he still came here at the risk of being humiliated, and begged to send troops.

What's the point of this?
Huan Jie smiled bitterly and said:
"Zihuan has always been kind to me, I...I can only do the things in front of him for him first.

As for the future, it is not for me to think about it. "

Ma Liang nodded and smiled:
"That's right, when the big man regains the Central Plains, Boxu's great talents can continue to be displayed, and we will have to help the Han Dynasty side by side in the future."

Huan Jie showed a touch of emotion.

He didn't have a deep friendship with Ma Liang. He didn't expect Ma Liang to value his talent so much. He said excitedly:

"Don't worry, Ji Chang. I will never do anything to harm the great man. I will try my best to keep the identity of General Yun secret, so that General Yun will not be harmed by Sun Quan."

Ma Liang thanked him repeatedly, and sent Huan Jie outside the door, the smile on his face suddenly became a little more ferocious.

"At both ends of the first mouse, I still want to not offend both, and do a good job on both sides. How can there be such a good thing in this world."

Huan Jie's character has always been like this.

He asked for Sun Jian's body back on behalf of Sun Ce. If he followed Sun Ce firmly in the future, he would also be a top member of Soochow now.

Later, he was appointed by Liu Biao. If he made up his mind to follow Liu Biao, or turned to Liu Bei in times of adversity, he would also be a top figure in Jingzhou or Liu Bei's account.

After he changed his family, Cao Pi treated him very well, especially after Chen Qun fell out of favor, Huan Jie almost became the number one civil servant under Cao Pi's command, and his status was still above Sima Yi.

But at this time, he started to sway again, wanting to do a good job for Cao Pi, and wanting not to offend the old man and leave a way for himself.

Although the idea is understandable, a person in his position really shouldn't do such a thing.

Now that you do, don't blame me for being ruthless.

Ma Liang summoned the servants and said quite seriously:
"Go and tell Yun Chang what happened today.

Also, he quickly sent people to Liangzhou to tell Tanzhi that the sky was about to change. "

He clenched his fists, and the smile on his face grew colder.

"Sun Quan, Sun Quan, you are not benevolent first, don't blame me for being unrighteous."
