Agents of the Three Kingdoms

Youzhou, Beiping!

The prefect's mansion, in the study.Gongsun Zan learned about the discussion of Taoism and martial arts in Ye County, so he invited Chang Shi Guan Jing to the study to discuss the discussion of Taoism and martial arts.Gongsun Zan's expression was serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Wang Lei made such a move, there must be countless people participating, and the princes from all walks of life will also send people to participate. Tell me, how should we respond?"

Guan Jing didn't even think about it, and said: "It involves the reputation of the lord, you must participate!"

"Who are they going to send?" Gongsun Zan asked.

Guan Jing rolled his eyes and replied: "My lord, have you forgotten Zhao Yun? Since Zhao Yun came back from Zhending, he has been in the army of Baima Yicong. Now that Ye County is discussing martial arts, Zhao Yun can just be dispatched. With Zhao Yun's martial arts , must be able to defeat countless people, and let the princes of the world know the strength of the lord."

Gongsun Zan nodded and said, "Zilong is unparalleled in martial arts, it's just right for him to go."

Guan Jing continued: "The more important thing is that Zhao Yun's departure from Baima Yicong will not affect the combat effectiveness of Baima Yicong. My lord can focus on Youzhou and continue to prepare for the capture of Youzhou."

Gongsun Zan nodded in satisfaction, and ordered, "Go, call Zhao Yun!"

"promise!"

Guan Jing left the study to inform Zhao Yun.

Soon, Zhao Yun came to the study and saluted respectfully.

With a smile on his face, Gongsun Zan ordered, "Zilong, Wang Lei summoned civil and military talents from all over the world to discuss Taoism and martial arts in Ye County. You are superb in martial arts. This time, on behalf of the official, go to Ye County to participate in the discussion of martial arts. Now go to Ye County, It represents the face of Gongsun Zan of Youzhou, I hope you will make good use of it and make this prefect look good."

"My lord, don't worry, I will fulfill my mission in the end."

Zhao Yun clasped his fists in response, but felt quite helpless in his heart.Since he and Wang Lei attacked Wuhuan, Zhao Yun has been completely marginalized, and Zhao Yun has nothing to do about it.He was loyal to Gongsun Zan, but Gongsun Zan still had a knot in his heart that he couldn't let go of.Now, instead of staying in the army with nothing to do, why not go to Ye County to discuss martial arts on behalf of Gongsun Zan, and relax along the way.

……

Yanzhou!

The governor's mansion, in the hall.

Cao Cao was wearing a black robe and a sage crown on his head, sitting high above, displaying his majesty.In the hall, there are also military generals such as Xiahou Dun, Xiahouyuan, Cao Hong, Cao Ren, Yu Jin, and Li Dian, as well as civil officials such as Xi Zhicai, Chen Gong, Cheng Yu, and Man Chong.

Cao Cao glanced at the people under his command, and said slowly: "Wang Lei summoned Confucian scholars and warriors from all over the world to Ye County to discuss Taoism and martial arts. You all know something about it. Tell me what you think about this matter."

With a flick of his sleeves, Cao Cao rested his hands on the desk and waited quietly.

Xiahou Dun looked excited, and said: "My lord, old men like us don't participate in the discussion of Dao. But in the discussion of martial arts, hehe, the men of Xiahou's family are not cowards, so they must participate. To play the prestige of Xiahou's family, play the master prestige."

Xia Houyuan was also quite excited, and he couldn't refuse the general's competition.

As long as he is a general, he has thoughts in his heart.

Cao Cao nodded lightly, without giving a clear answer, and looked at the rest of the people.

Cheng Yu stroked the long beard under his jaw, and said in a leisurely manner: "The old man thinks that this is my lord's chance."

Cao Cao leaned forward and said, "What do you think, Mr. Zhongde?"

Cheng Yu is 52 years old this year and is the only older person under Cao Cao's command.In addition, Cheng Yu has a resolute personality, rich experience, and is even more loyal to Cao Cao. Cao Cao respects Cheng Yu very much.

Cheng Yu looked serious, and said: "This time, the Dao and Martial Arts Conference is on a grand scale. There must be countless people participating, and countless talents will emerge. Wang Lei is in charge of Jizhou at a young age, and he is definitely not a reckless person. So calling all the civil and military talents from all over the world to participate, I think his purpose is to recruit talents."

"Wang Lei wants to recruit talents. My lord can't just watch. He must also send an eloquent person to Ye County to discover talents, win over talents, and take them for his own use."

In Cheng Yu's wise eyes, there was a light of wisdom.

Cao Cao nodded slightly, knowing what to do.

He glanced away, and then looked at the rest of the people in the hall.

Man Chong continued: "My lord, I agree with Zhong Degong's suggestion. This time, the discussion on Dao and martial arts will have a wide range, and other princes from all walks of life will also send people there, so we can't weaken our momentum, and we must also send elites to go there. , to win glory for the lord."

Xi Zhicai shook his head and said, "No, there is no need to send elites."

Cao Cao's eyes fell on Xi Zhicai, with an encouraging look in his eyes.

Xi Zhicai smiled slightly, and said: "Wang Lei's purpose is difficult to deduce all of it in a short time. However, if it were me, I would make a record of all the people who participated in the discussion on martial arts and Taoism this time, and constantly Follow up and observe. In this way, Wang Lei will know whether it is someone who has already served the various princes or is about to become an official."

"In other words, Wang Lei can know all the people from all walks of life."

"Countless information has been collected without any effort. Such a good thing is not easy to come across."

"If you send out the elite of the lord, it will expose the situation of the lord."

Xi Zhicai said: "My lord only needs to send ordinary people to participate. The most important point is what Mr. Zhong De mentioned, sending people who can speak well, looking for talents, and constantly earning under the lord's command. Then, Observe the rest of the people and record all the news so that the Lord can understand the situation."

Man Chong has a straightforward personality. After hearing this, he immediately said: "I agree with the military adviser's opinion."

Xiahou Dun sighed softly, regretting that he could not participate.The same is true for Xia Houyuan, including many civil servants in the hall, who also feel regretful. This is a good opportunity to become famous!

After careful consideration, Cao Cao made a decision, and said, "Mr. Zhongde and the military adviser agreed. Send a few ordinary generals and civil officials to participate. The most important thing is to participate. As for the person in charge, he is responsible for collecting talents and intelligence."

"My lords, who wants to go?" Cao Cao asked.

Xia Houyuan said: "My lord, I am willing to go and recruit talents for my lord."

Chen Gong shook his head and said: "General Xiahou is my lord's servant. Wang Lei has already been familiar with General Xiahou. Once the general goes there, he will definitely be targeted by Wang Lei's people. It is difficult to take him. It must be done in secret."

Cheng Yu continued: "In that case, the old man will go there in person."

Chen Gong said again: "Wang Lei didn't know about the existence of Duke Zhongde, so it would be easy for him to go there. However, Xia Houyuan can also go there. General Xiahou, as a person on the bright side, attracted Wang Lei's attention and covered up for Duke Zhongde. In this way, Mr. Zhongde is also easy to act, and he has recruited talents and collected intelligence quietly."

Xiahou Dun looked at Cao Cao and said, "My lord, what about me? I'm going too."

Cao Cao laughed and said, "Yuan Rang, I have personal matters. Ye County needs people to go, but it also needs people to attack Qingzhou. Doesn't Yuan Rang want to go to Qingzhou to fight?"

"I'd better go to Qingzhou!"

After thinking about it, Xiahoudun was still willing to lead troops to fight.

Cao Cao nodded in satisfaction, and ordered: "Mr. Zhongde, be careful on the way to Ye County, and focus on safety. As for the candidates to participate in the discussion of Dao and martial arts, you can just pick a few from among the civil servants and military generals."

Cheng Yu cupped his hands and said, "My lord, don't worry, the humble job will definitely complete the task."
