Xiaoguangong

Chapter 104 Persuasion
Guan Ping and Ma Liang have really gained Le Jin Xu Huang's trust now.

If they had more soldiers, they could occupy Xiangyang directly.

But now Liu Bei divides his forces to attack the four counties in Jingnan, and Zhou Yu has not taken Jiangling for a while, so it is not the best time yet.

Of course, the two of them summed it up, and it was a very cost-effective thing to use the weapons and rations provided by Cao Cao to continuously expand their power. Otherwise, it would be too difficult for Guan Ping to become a prefect at such a young age.

If you have a prefect, you must have your own team. Guan Ping thought about it for a while. Fu Xun, Huang Zhong and others are too famous to be in his prefect's mansion. Lu Yi doesn't have much reputation, and people who know him don't know much. It's just that he once fought Le Jin on the river, I'm afraid Le Jin can remember this person's appearance.

He asked Ma Liang to inquire about it, and Le Jin truthfully said that he had long forgotten what that person looked like back then—he only remembered that it was a black-faced iron armored Wu Jun general who claimed to be Lu Yi.Le Jin was busy dodging arrows at the time, and the two didn't confront each other face to face, so they only remembered the outline of General Wu, which made Guan Ping feel relieved.

Well, go ask Brother Lu if he has this idea, if he has his resourcefulness, it is not difficult to win the final victory.

Speaking of which, Guan Ping now has quite a few think tanks.

Chen Qun and Fu Xun, who were prime ministers and joined the army, and Xun You, Cao Cao's excellent military adviser, are all his captives, but it is obvious that among the three, only Fu Xun is with him, and the other two are waiting for Cao Cao. It is impossible to cooperate with Guan Ping if he redeems himself.

It seems that the Kuangfu Han Dynasty really can't rely on these people, I have to form an army myself.

Recruiting talents has to be done slowly. With the banner of the prime minister of the Han Dynasty and the prefect of Jiangxia, it should not be difficult to think about it.

·
In the area around Shiyang, Liu Bei has thoughtfully moved the people to the south of the Yangtze River, and Guan Ping has easily occupied this place.

He established the prefect's mansion, and let the soldiers renovate the city in full swing, and continued to receive orders from the imperial court in Anlu and other places in the north.At the beginning, the sergeants were worried that Liu Bei's army would attack again, but Guan Ping was full of confidence, saying that Liu Bei would not dare to come when he saw his banner.

After waiting for a few days, Liu Beijun really did not intend to cross the river to attack. Even the number of exploration ships on the river decreased a lot. Also respectfully changed the name to "Mingfu".

Guan Ping, the prefect, of course has no ideas in governing the place, but he knows that most soldiers are unwilling to fight. Shiyang is now an empty city anyway. He announced that he will distribute the surrounding land to the soldiers for cultivation, and this year he will only receive [-]% of the land tax , Corvée can also reduce or exempt land tax.

This caused the soldiers who had already admired him to shout "Mingfu benevolence" one after another, and they all threw themselves into farming happily.

After all this was settled, Guan Ping was also going to visit Jingcheng first.

He didn't want the soldiers to follow him at first, but then he thought that he is the prefect now, and it would be a very strange thing to row a boat to the vicinity of Jingcheng, which is some distance away, by himself.

After thinking about it again and again, he still took the five dead men who raided Cao Cao with him on Huarong Road, claiming that they were going hunting-Sun Ce also went hunting alone back then, and Yunshan can do what he can do.

Thinking of Sun Ce's image, Guan Ping remembered some of the content he had exchanged with Fu Xun before.

Fu Xun believes that loyalty and bravery are not enough to play the role of Yunshan well for a long time.

Cao Jun has always regarded looting as a reward for soldiers. When not looting, Cao Jun's style of withholding military rations will definitely seriously affect the morale of the soldiers.The last two times I didn't grab it were when Wancheng fought Zhang Xiu (the first time) and went south to fight Jingzhou. Cao Jun suffered a big defeat and suffered heavy losses these two times. The style of looting is loyal and brave at best, but not gregarious at worst. How can Shangguan trust everyone to you.

Fu Xun suggested that it is not convenient for Yunshan to slaughter the city, but it must show the characteristics of greed, brutality, and eagerness for quick success, so that even if someone in the court criticizes, Yunshan can still stay on the front line as much as possible with military merits.

"Everyone knows what Cao Cao wants to do. If the general shows his loyalty to the Han Dynasty, he will suffer great disaster in the future.

Only if you deliberately show your virtue and shame, can you gain the trust of Prime Minister Cao. "

Guan Ping was taken aback by this logic.

He has always been a good person since he was a child, but he really doesn't know how to pretend to be greedy and rude, so he can only imitate Sun Ce, and create an image of being impatient and not listening to advice.

Sure enough, when they heard that the lord general was going to abandon everyone to go hunting upstream, many soldiers tried hard to persuade them—the other side was Liu Bei’s stronghold.

But Guan Ping insisted on going his own way, saying that the battle can be said again, and his hunting must not be delayed.

He took his soldiers and walked away lightly, leaving a group of soldiers looking at each other.

Uh, but this is indeed a bit like General Cao Jun. Before, I thought this General Yun was a bit weird.

In this way, Guan Pingan left the waters of Xiakou, started to sail up the Shuo River, and headed for Jingcheng.

This time Guan Ping came out with his brothers who were born and died in Huarong Road. Guan Ping explained to them that he was going to search for immortals.

No one interfered, Guan Ping was a little nervous, he walked slowly to the river by himself, and waded gently in the river.

In early spring, there was a wave of waves rising from the still icy river, and Guan Ping immediately felt his body lighten up, and then there was a violent whirl of the sky. Guan Ping quickly closed his eyes, and when the dizziness in front of him disappeared, he found himself in that gloomy narrow road again. in the corridor.

Bang bang bang.

Guan Ping could hear his own heartbeat.

When he came last time, he was no longer so nervous, but he didn't kill Cao Cao according to the historical trend, whether it would cause the situation in a thousand years to be different, which made Guan Ping's heart flutter.

I don't know if people like Jia Liangcai, Huang Si, and Yun Shanshan are still around.

The door of Jia Liangcai's office was ajar, Guan Ping touched the saber on his waist, leaned over cautiously, and looked in from the door.

The furnishings inside remained the same, but Jia Liangcai and others were nowhere to be seen.

Only a short and fat man knelt down on the ground and kowtowed vigorously towards the side window.

Guan Ping looked intently, only to see that the man was actually the devil who had survived before.

Previously, Yun Shanshan planned to attract some devils from the foreign firm, and Guan Ping easily killed the two of them. Yun Shanshan said that she needed to leave one person to operate something called a radio station, so she could only keep that person.

But now that person is occupying Jia Liangcai's office, kowtowing towards the side window, and groaning "Heavenly Trouble Black Card" and "Board Loading" in his mouth. Out of the knife.

I don't know what this devil is talking about, but Guan Ping still feels a little bad.

Has history changed, or has the gang of devils Yun Niangzi mentioned earlier occupied this place?In short, it is not a good thing.

He looked around and found no weapons like Sanba Dagai, so he moved forward slowly, raised his knife and walked towards the devil.

One step, two steps.

The devil didn't respond, and was still "loading" non-stop. Guan Ping breathed a sigh of relief, slowly raised the knife, and was about to split it in two with one knife, when he suddenly heard footsteps behind him, followed by a woman Panicked footsteps:
"Stop! What are you doing!"

Guan Ping turned around in astonishment, only to see that Yun Shanshan was holding a rather delicate and strange iron tool tightly in her hand at the door, and was looking at him in horror.

Seeing Guan Ping turn around, Yun Shanshan was also taken aback, and then her face was full of surprise:

"Mr. Guan, you are back!?"

"Ah?"

Yun Shanshan was the same as before, except that she looked tired and had thick dark circles around her eyes.

Seeing Guan Ping standing in place with a knife in his hands, obviously targeting the devil, Yun Shanshan coughed in embarrassment, and said helplessly:

"Things are a bit complicated, let me explain slowly."

Ignoring the devil who was still kneeling on the ground with a vicious and angry expression, she pulled a wooden chair and asked Guan Ping to sit down.Guan Ping was wearing a straight train of military robes, and felt quite uncomfortable sitting on this kind of high chair, but it seemed that it was not unacceptable to have a backrest and armrests.

Yun Shanshan took out two snow-white porcelain cups from the wooden cabinet on one side, used the thermos to pour water for Guan Ping, and said in a low voice while pouring:

"Last time, thanks to Mr. Guan's help, we took control of the foreign firms here, established our own radio station, and took in some comrades who were hunted down by devils before.

But the army of devils has already occupied the surrounding area, we really dare not make it too obvious, we can only continue to lurk nearby, wait for the opportunity to slowly establish a base, and get in touch with the surrounding comrades. "

She glanced at the devil who had slowly stood up, bit her lips unwillingly, and sighed:
"This devil was born in poverty, and he became an invader because he was inspired by their Bushido spirit. We want to win him to be our comrade, so that we can operate the radio station to send some misleading content to the devil.

But he...hey...he has been stubborn and has been asking us to kill him, but we refused to kill him, so we have been shouting here every day to make trouble on the black card board, punctually like an alarm clock.

The devil must have become suspicious since he hadn't heard from the foreign firm for so long.

We are also preparing to transfer these days..."

"Transfer? Just leave here?" Guan Ping asked in surprise.

"Yes." Yun Shanshan said helplessly, "If we can win over this person, we might still have a chance. But he just doesn't want to cooperate with us. The devil hasn't heard from the foreign firm for a long time, so he must know that something happened here, and so on. After they are busy with the urban battle, they will definitely send people over, we have taken in a lot of wounded recently, and we have to move them to a safe place as soon as possible."

"That's it."

Guan Ping rubbed his chin, hesitating for a moment.

He can only come here every time. If Jia Liangcai, Yun Shanshan and others all evacuate, and this place becomes the occupied area of ​​these devils again, wouldn't he fly into the crowd if he comes again?
He thought hard for a moment and said:

"Unless you convince this devil?"

"Unless you convince this devil!"

"Can this devil understand me?"

"Yes, he has been lurking for many years, and basically has no flaws."

"That's good, I'll persuade him." Guan Ping stood up.

Yun Shanshan smiled bitterly and said:

"I probably know what method Mr. Guan wants to use. You don't know that these devils are very stubborn. If torture works, Mr. Jia has already used it before."

"Torture?" Guan Ping shook his head, "No, no, no, I rule the world with loyalty and filial piety. If I have a heart-to-heart chat with him, maybe I will gain something."

Yun Shanshan looked at Guan Ping's young face suspiciously, and sighed, "Big man? Well, then... Then there will be Mr. Laoguan."
