Xiaoguangong

Chapter 81

From Chen Qun's point of view, Guan Ping, as an independent general, should consider the position and influence of celebrities.

But obviously, the young Guan Ping was quite blank in this lesson. He always put himself in the position of a warrior, and what he had to consider was only the success or failure of the war.

Chen Qun's strategy was extremely risky, but there was one thing that attracted him.

Huarong Road...

He clearly remembered that in the story Yun Shanshan told himself, he set up an ambush on Huarong Road, and finally beheaded Cao Cao. Cao thief.

Thousands of years later, people's understanding of history should be slightly biased, but the general direction should be correct.

I don't know if I have attacked Cao Ren before in history. If there is such a thing, Cai Mao will definitely take more precautions, and it will be bad at that time.

After thinking for a long time, Guan Ping made up his mind:

"Go to Lukou first, then make plans."

"Do you really want to listen to this guy, uh, Chen Canjun's method?" Huang Zhong asked curiously, "Let me tell you first, I watched De Gui grow up, and many of his subordinates were cultivated by me. It’s fine if I entrap them.”

Guan Pingning said:
"It might as well, if Cao thief really goes to Huarong Road, please invite General Huang to chase Cao thief with me."

Huang Zhong smacked his lips: "From Wulin to Huarong Road, there are swamps all the way. If Cao Jun really goes there, it will really be a situation of life and death."

In this way, Guan Ping sent a letter to Liu Bei, and Ma Liang and Wang Mo led [-] Cao troops who were not yet reliable to guard Shiyang. forest front.

·
On the front line of Wulin, Cai Mao's bland face hides a trace of undetectable haze.

The Patriarch of the Cai family temporarily overturned his previous decision before going out for the expedition, and gambled with his wealth and life.And now, he doesn't know whether he won or lost the bet.

Cao Jun came aggressively, and launched a fierce collision with the Sun-Liu Allied Army in Wulin. The main force of the Sun-Liu Allied Army was exhausted in this battle. There were so many, Cao Ren also very cleverly handed over all the command to Zhang Yun this time, and the Jingzhou navy force blocked Wu Jun's continuous onslaught.

Cao Cao was very satisfied with the result of the battle, but he didn't know that a nightmare had come quietly.

"Plague God help me."

Most of Cao Jun's navy was infected with a strange plague in Wulin. Those who contracted this strange disease would suffer from severe high fever and chest pains, and some soldiers even began to develop terrifying lesions with enlarged stomachs.

Cai Mao knew that this was the plague god coming again.

The terrifying plague god has always been entrenched in the Jingxiang area, and it will cause trouble every autumn. Many people will only feel a little discomfort in autumn, and it will take a month or two for serious reactions to occur.There are also many Jingxiang children who are infected with the disease, but compared with the soldiers of the Northern Army who have almost lost their combat effectiveness, the Jingzhou Navy can barely fight.

This made Cai Mao secretly happy.

He had heard from a famous doctor before that the locals were much better at resisting the plague god than outsiders, and that the plague god appeared just right, and God helped me.

He compromised with Cao Cao before, and now all the naval forces are under his command and dispatch, and he has essentially possessed the huge power among Cao's troops second only to Cao Cao.Cao Cao thought that this would allow Cai Mao to fight desperately for his own interests, but he didn't know that Cai Mao had already had other ideas in his heart.

The Cao army in Jiangling has become like this, and the Cao army in Jiangbei has also suffered heavy losses in all likelihood. This can also explain why Zhao Yan, who has always been known for being good at coordinating relationships, unexpectedly behaved uncharacteristically, preferring to turn against Le Jin and Xu Huang. Willing to send troops - he just offended Le Jin and Xu Huang by not sending troops, and there is room to make up for Cao Jun's defeat.

If he took a group of remnants and marched out forcefully, if his subordinates Yu Jin, Zhang Liao, and Zhang He made any mistakes, Cao Cao would have to kill him as a guard.

ok ok, so...

Cai Hao's ambitions were great, and he once moved the idea of ​​​​joining Sun Liu to kill Cao Cao.

But Sun Liu is not easy to mess with. If he launches a mutiny and kills Cao Cao, Cao Cao's forces in Jiangbei will definitely not let him go in the future, and Sun Liu, who has lost a strong enemy, wants to occupy Jingzhou, and he will definitely target Cai Mao. It's not worth it.

But if you continue to fight with Sun Liu.

Doesn't this mean that I brought my own dry food and fought bloody battles for the Cao family?Just kidding, I'm not that kind of person.

Cai Mao has been thinking about this question for the past few days, and at this moment he regrets very much, why he didn't pay more visits to Xu Shu's mountain gate.

He started to burn Xu Shu's incense early, but before the war started, he misjudged the situation and did not take the influence of the God of Plague into consideration during the battle. At that time, he was full of confidence and wanted to use Cao Cao's hand to wipe out Jiangdong, but now he froze up.

Before the expedition, he heard that Xu Shu was severely injured by Chang Diao, and immediately smelled something was wrong, and wanted to ask Xu Shu for advice again. This person would never see outsiders in the name of recuperating, which made Cai Mao feel very boring.

Obviously I was the first to make friends with Xu Shu and protect Guan Ping. Why didn't I stick to it to the end? What should I do now?

Cai Mao rested for a while, and asked his subordinates to report on the recent epidemic situation. Seeing that various military situations are intertwined, Cai Mao couldn't help but sighed.

Let alone Xu Shu, it would be great if Fu Xun was here at this time.

He was feeling emotional in his heart, and the warriors under him hurriedly approached, saying that Chen Qun's servants had come in a flat boat.

Cai Mao frowned: "Why are you looking for me?"

The samurai looked gloomy, and said in a low voice, "It's from the direction of Xiakou."

Xiakou is in the east of Wulin, which is the site of the Sun Liu coalition army.

Jiangling is in Wulinxi, which is Cao Cao's territory.

Chen Qun's servants were not stopped when they came from Xiakou, Cai Mao naturally knew what this meant.

"Who else knows?"

"Only our own cruiser sees it."

"That's okay, take that man to the boat first, and I'll be there in a while."

Cai Mao's heart was pounding, he felt that the turning point of the battle was coming.

·
Chen Qun's servant called himself Chen Gu, and pretended to be a fisherman. He was shivering in the cold during the boat trip, and when he saw Cai Mao, he hurriedly bowed down.

Cai Mao waved his hand and asked someone to bring warm wine to him. Chen Gu thanked him a lot, took a sip, and then regained his senses a little.

"Slaves obey the orders of their masters..."

"Okay, okay, what did Chen Qun ask you to do?"

Chen Guhan smiled, took out a few pieces of white silk from his bosom, and placed them respectfully in front of Cai Mao.

Cai Mao thought it was a letter from Chen Qun, but when he looked carefully, there were actually something written by someone else.

"What is this?" He said casually, and looked at the letter in front of his eyes, only to see that the handwriting on it was extremely familiar——

This is actually Fu Xun's handwriting!
Cai Mao suppressed the curiosity in his heart, first read Chen Qun's letter, and saw that Chen Qun praised Yunshan in the letter. He was willing to stay and drive Yunshan. They have no shortage of soldiers or food, and they don't need any assistance. .

The words and sentences of this letter were quite strange, no matter how brave Yun Shan was, he was still just a martial artist, how could Chen Qun be willing to be urged by him, and he specifically emphasized that he did not want soldiers or food.Cai Mao, who knew Yunshan's true identity, quickly guessed what was going on—obviously, it was Chen Qun asking for help.

There must be hidden secrets in this letter that only a few people can understand. As long as the letter is delivered to Cao Cao, the counselors in Yingchuan under Cao Cao should be able to see that something is wrong with Chen Qun. Something happened to Yang.

Cai Mao's eyes narrowed slowly, and his eyes slowly cast on Chen Gu again.

"Tell me, what happened to Chen Qun?"

Chen Gu bowed respectfully to Cai Mao again, and when he raised his head again, the chill on his body subsided a little, and a smile appeared on his face.

"My master met Guan Ping in Shiyang."

"What does this have to do with Ben?"

"General Guan said that the lord is a loyal elder in Jingxiang, and he will definitely give the servant a fortune." There was a hint of greed in his eyes without concealing it, "The servant will thank the lord first."

Cai Mao was silent for a while, then picked up the letter from Fu Xun.

After a while, he reached out and rubbed his temples:
"Is it Fu Xun's idea?"

"Exactly, it's Master Fu's idea."

"Give you a piece of wealth, did Fu Xun say what you would get?"

"Back to Junhou, Master Fu said that after this battle, Junhou will become the person Sun Liu Cao is vying to win over, and his prestige will be unparalleled at that time."

Cai Mao was determined not to believe Fu Xun's nonsense, after all, it was not long ago that Cai Mao directed Fu Xun to deceive Liu Cong and sold Jingzhou.

A stern look flashed in his eyes, and he picked up Fu Xun's letter and read it again.

Seeing this, his eyebrows were furrowed into a ball.

"The general and Xuande are life and death friends, and Guan Ping is like a nephew. Why do you have to be so secretive about something. Allow me... to think about it again."
