Chapter 475
The arrival of Qiao Rui was an unexpected suffocation for Chen Gong, and it was not in the plan, but Qiao Rui, an old guy, has quite a unique vision.

"Teacher, I don't understand something." After sending Qiao Rui away, Zhao Yun came back and frowned at Chen Gongdao.

"Oh? What's not clear about Zilong?" Chen Gong laughed when he heard this, he really liked the feeling of solving his disciple's doubts.

"Teacher helps Guanzhong like this, but those four families are not actually under the control of our army. Now that we have external help, it can be regarded as a rescue for them, but these places are actually under the control of the four generals. If they turn back after gaining benefits, What the teacher did this time, is he making a wedding dress for others? And it is of no benefit to the common people." Zhao Yun bowed.

The four of Liang Xing now have the ability to destroy Chen Gong's management at any time. Even if Chen Gong gains power, the warlords in Guanzhong obviously have no long-term plans. Zhao Yun is worried that Chen Gong's actions will eventually be for nothing.

"Zilong can see this. It seems that he has been thinking about the overall situation with his heart during this time." Chen Gong looked at his second disciple with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Zilong is right, the reason why they are obedient now is because It is because of profit, if the plan stops here, it is very likely that in the end, as Zilong said, these people are truly unbelievers."

Zhao Yun nodded and waited for the next article.

Chen Gong groped for his goat's whiskers and said with a smile: "But there is going to be a war. I have gathered millions of stones of grain and grass and invited them to send troops to help. Isn't it too much?"

After Zhao Yun thought for a moment, he suddenly said: "Teacher, you want to transfer their main force away, and then take the opportunity to manage this place in the middle of the pass as your own?"

"That's right, when I left Zhidi, when I came back, I gave them food and grass, and they came back." Chen Gong nodded with a smile: "Zilong can also be regarded as I asked them to help me keep the food and grass temporarily, anyway. Those grains and grasses are kept, and it is impossible to eat them all at once."

Zhao Yun looked at Chen Gong in astonishment.

"This food is in my hands, and it will be delivered every three or five days. If you say that, can they turn back?" Chen Gong asked with a smile.

It wasn't whether he dared or not, but whether he could or not. The livelihood of the three armies was completely in his hands, and Chen Gong was not without power to protect himself. With Chen Gong's methods, after a long time, the four generals would definitely be eliminated.

At that time, if they are obedient, they can still have a good death and go to Xuchang for the elderly. If there is something wrong with their hearts, their lives may be in immediate danger.

"The teacher is brilliant, I admire Yun!" Zhao Yun said sincerely.

"It's still not careful enough." Chen Gong shook his head, looked at Zhao Yun and said, "There is still a crucial step missing."

After hearing this, Zhao Yun frowned and thought for a while, but still couldn't figure out which step was missing, so he cupped his hands at Chen Gong and said, "Teacher, please clarify!"

"Since we know that they are greedy and have no faith at all, then even if they accept my food, they will definitely accept my encouragement?" Chen Gong asked with a smile.

"Didn't the teacher control the four of them with food and grass?" Zhao Yun was puzzled.

"Food and grass can only make them agree to my ruling in Guanzhong, but they can't make them be willing to drive me. The imperial edict will not work here." Chen Gong shook his head. Guanzhong is a place that focuses on power. There is not too much deterrence here.

"I don't know what trick the teacher has?" Zhao Yun looked at Chen Gong curiously.

"In addition to Duan Yan and Liang Xing's four generals, there are six major forces in this pass. Why do you think I only look for them?" Chen Gong asked with a smile.

"The disciple is dull, so he can only think of the short distance." Zhao Yun bowed.

"This is one reason, but the most important thing is that they have to be separated, but they have to be one." Chen Gong said something that Zhao Yun didn't quite understand.

"Teacher, please clarify." Zhao Yun smiled wryly, feeling that learning this is much more tiring than practicing martial arts and art of war.

"The separation is to make them feel that they have received benefits from the court while others have not. This kind of thinking will make them feel like allies spontaneously. Although they are not allied, they are better than allies, because at this moment they share a common chain of interests. " Chen Gong said with a smile: "The biggest advantage of this chain of interests is that we don't need to do anything, they will regard the people who are in this chain of interests with them as their own in their hearts, and they will be alienated from the other six families. sense."

"Benefit chain?" Zhao Yun didn't quite understand the term, and had never heard of it.

"Your senior brother concluded that the ways to obtain benefits are roughly the same, or even from the same source. For example, the clothes need to raise silkworms, spin silk, weave cloth, make clothes and then sell them in shops. Then all the methods in this series A participant is considered to be a person above a chain of interests." Chen Gong smiled and helped his illiterate disciple to eradicate illiteracy, which was a joy that Chu Nan, a traitor, could not feel.

Zhao Yun understood a little, nodded and said, "In this way, they have been separated from the other six parts?"

"That's right, but even though they are separated, in terms of regional identity, they are all Guanzhong warlords. Although they fight against each other, they are regarded as a force in the whole world. Because their origins are mostly the same, they agree with each other more in terms of identity. If they send troops, the other six families need to agree to send troops, and then they will naturally also need to send troops." Chen Gong said with a smile.

"But... the teacher has never shown any kindness to the other six families..." Zhao Yun felt a little hot in his head.

What makes the teacher feel that those who are favored by his family are reluctant to make a move, and those who are not favored by his family are more likely to help him?Could it be that the teacher thinks the other six have good character?
No, he had heard the teacher say more than once that the generals in Guanzhong are all similar in nature, and none of them is loyal.

"Because we are the biggest force in this level now!" Chen Gong knocked on the table, looked at Zhao Yun and said with a smile, "Does Zilong know why?"

Zhao Yun didn't know, but he was willing to think about it. In terms of military strength and territory, they only occupied the Jingzhao area and only received Duan Yan's soldiers and horses. Naturally, they couldn't be the strongest, even if they were, they were stronger than others The industry is limited, otherwise Duan Yao wouldn't have stayed in this area all the time. He had already started planning to unify Guanzhong, and it would be their turn.

How did the teacher figure out that they are the strongest and can make everyone afraid to send troops?

Because of the imperial court?

Obviously not, the imperial court is not very useful here.

Recalling all the things that happened during this period, a flash of light suddenly flashed in Zhao Yun's mind, and he looked at Chen Gong and said, "Master, did you include the four generals of Liang Xing?"

Chen Gong nodded in satisfaction: "It's all bluffing tricks. Zilong has an upright personality, so he can use it, but he must know it, otherwise he will easily suffer in the future. Learning these things is not necessarily against the enemy, but also for self-protection."

Zhao Yun nodded silently, still sorting out his thoughts in his mind. It was obviously not Liang Xing's idea that the Four Generals became their power, but Chen Gong's operation during this period of time created an impression for the outside world that the Four Generals had surrendered to the court. illusion.

Although this is not true, Chen Gong never said that they belonged to the imperial court. Even if the fourth general finds out and blames them, Chen Gong can still push them away.

As for the other warlords in Guanzhong, when Chen Gong came to Jingzhao, he first went to Duan Yan, and then easily subdued the four major forces.

Then try to persuade one or two prestigious people to take the lead to help the imperial court deal with Yuan Shao, and once these people take the lead, the Fourth General Liang Xing will have no way to refuse.

Not only because Chen Gong persuaded other forces without their knowledge, obviously Chen Gong's dependence on them is no longer strong, if they are disobedient, Chen Gong can completely abandon them, and even call other warlords to crusade.

At this time, the supply and demand on both sides are reversed.

At that time, most of Chen Gong's strategy will be completed, and the next step will be as Chen Gong predicted, taking advantage of the time when he leads the troops to go out to conquer the territory of the four generals, and at the same time completely hold the territory of the four generals. Lifeline, after they came back, even if they didn't lose any soldiers, it would be difficult to shake Chen Gong at all.

Zhao Yun went through all of Chen Gong's plans back and forth, looked at Chen Gong with a wry smile and clasped his fists and said, "Teacher, if my disciples were them, I'm afraid they would not be able to escape the schemes."

"How is it calculated? As a teacher, he is a great Confucian, dignified and upright, he will not speak half a lie!" Chen Gong said with a serious face.

"What the teacher said is very true." Zhao Yun cupped his fists and said, "But even so, how can the teacher convince the other six warlords?"

"Zilong will go to Wuwei with me tonight." Chen Gong laughed.

"Here!" Zhao Yun hesitated for a moment, looked at Chen Gong and said, "However, if there is no one guarding Chang'an at this time, will there be chaos?"

Chen Gong nodded. The current stability of Chang'an is based on him being here. If he finds out that he is not there, Liang Xing and the others may have different ideas. They are actually no different from bandits now, only on a larger scale.

"Zilong go and call Luo Ping'an!" After thinking about it, Chen Gong decided to make a dangerous move.

Zhao Yun was puzzled, agreed, turned and left, and after a while, recruited Luo Pingan.

"Sir, are you looking for me?" Luo Ping'an saluted Chen Gong.

"Zilong and I will leave the city secretly tonight." Chen Gong nodded, looked at Luo Pingan with a serious face and said, "So after the two of us leave, you will be the highest guard in Chang'an City."

"This..." Luo Pingan quickly waved his hand and said, "Sir, I can't do it!"

"It's safe." Chen Gong stopped him from waving his hands, looked at him seriously and said, "It can be seen that Zilong cherishes your friend very much."

Luo Pingan glanced at Zhao Yun and nodded.

"But with your talent, talent and learning, the gap between you and Zilong will become farther and farther. Your only chance is to go all out and live to death. This opportunity is what Zilong begged for. If you can After completing this task, I will focus on training when I go back, but if it is not completed..." Chen Gong sighed, and under Luo Ping'an's horrified eyes, he said: "You and I, the three of us, will die here."

"I..." Luo Ping'an was a little flustered. He looked at Chen Gong and then at Zhao Yun. His bewildered look made others feel distressed.

"Ping An, no matter how you choose, I will regard you as a friend." Zhao Yun couldn't bear it, and said.

Luo Ping'an suddenly became quiet, and after a few seconds of silence, he gritted his teeth and said, "The last general takes orders!"

Chen Gong nodded, looked at him and said, "Do you know what to do?"

Luo Ping'an thought for a while and said, "Visit the city more often, encourage the soldiers, and if there is an enemy coming, swear to defend the city to the death."

Chen Gong shook his head, looked at Luo Ping'an and said, "I have a plan, as long as you follow it, you will be safe!"
