Three Kingdoms: The Guan Family's Rebellious Son, Long Blessing Jing Xiang

Chapter 208 You may earn blood, but I will never lose money!

At the foot of Dingjun Mountain, a hundred miles away from Hanzhong.

There are undulating grass waves here, and the arrival of winter makes the grass withered and yellow.

A gentle creek flows from the side, and on the other side of the river bank is a dense forest.

The sound of hooves was like rain, and along the road at the foot of Dingjun Mountain, a cavalry team galloped. The horses were like dragons, and the people were like brocade.

When he got to the entrance of Dingjun Mountain, the lead rider stopped first, and he said in a serious tone: "Miaocai, I will ask you alone, and I will return to the Central Plains alone. If the big-eared thieves come, they will station here at Dingjun Mountain. How about you?"

It was Cao Cao who spoke.

After returning from Bazhong, he had already decided to leave Hanzhong after learning about the unfavorable situation in Xiangfan.

Of course, it is impossible for him to tell Xia Houyuan, Zhang He, Xu Huang and others that his purpose of going back is to go through the last few transfer procedures for the "house book" of the big man, so that the big Wei can sit on the world in a legitimate way at any time!
In addition, Cao Cao has to choose the future successor of Wei to inherit the world.

——I have been busy all my life, and I have struggled all my life!
——At the age of 60, it is time to think about how to replace the "big man's house book";

——I should also think about how to land smoothly.

Of course, leaving is leaving, and landing is landing.

Before leaving, Cao Cao was still worried about Xia Houyuan.

At this moment, Xia Houyuan was riding a horse behind him.

This brother, who has been with Cao Cao since he was a child, is interesting enough, a brother enough, a friend enough...

At that time, when Cao Cao committed a murder and needed someone to take the blame, Xia Houyuan went directly to him... to go to jail for him, and to bear the lawsuit for him;
Cao Cao entered the Imperial Academy to study, and Xia Houyuan also entered the Imperial Academy.

When Cao Cao married a daughter-in-law, Xia Houyuan also married. Cao Cao's mother's Ding family was a sister, and when Cao Cao married an older sister, Xia Houyuan married a younger sister.

It is no exaggeration, this pair of clan brothers broke the bones and connected the tendons!
Of course, it can be said another way.

In the clan, Xia Houyuan's branch is too poor, so poor... If he didn't hold Cao Cao's thigh tightly, where would he be able to make a living?

Is it necessary to be so poor for a lifetime?

Because of poverty, because of lack of food, make a choice again and let the daughter of the dead brother, his niece live?

Or let your son live?
Finally... until now, after decades of fighting, Xia Houyuan has grown from Cao Cao's little follower, that poor kid in Qiaopei, to a leader who can act alone.

As Cao Wei's commander-in-chief in the northwest, his rapid march, and his "five hundred in three days, one thousand in six days" inspired Cao's army and made the enemy terrified.

At this moment, Xia Houyuan observed the topography of Dingjun Mountain, and immediately replied: "Dingjun Mountain is only a little higher, and the Shu army can't fly, and they can't cross Yangping Pass. I personally stationed troops at Yangping Pass, which is enough to cover this area. Big-eared thieves are blocking the gate of the country."

Xia Houyuan spoke with confidence.

As he said, Yangping Pass is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the terrain is extremely dangerous.

When Cao Cao was beating Zhang Lu here, he saw Yangping Pass and put down this sentence:——"How can there be nothing in this monster country's ears?"

In the end, if it wasn't for Cao Cao's will when he attacked Yangping Pass, and the elk helped to disperse Zhang Lujun's barracks, how could Cao Cao be defeated so easily?
Now, according to Xia Houyuan's intention, this is a natural danger, as long as you keep it... the situation will be stable.

"You can't blindly defend." Cao Cao raised his finger and pointed towards Chencang and Qishan Road on the side of Dingjun Mountain. Raid."

"If you find a good opportunity, you can also order Zhang Yun to cut off Liu Bei's food road along the Jushui, and draw from the bottom of the pot."

During this time, Cao Cao hid in the deep mountains, not just waiting, he was still observing, observing the terrain.

Thinking about how to attack?
How to keep?
Now the strategy he left for Xia Houyuan is very simple.

——Brother, you just stay in Yangping Pass honestly.

——Zhang He, a man with a foreign surname, let him be stationed in Beishan outside Yangping Pass to disgust Liu Bei.

Of course, it would be dangerous, but disgusting people are fine, whether he is dangerous or not?People with foreign surnames, put aside your kindness, right?

In fact, if you follow the historical deduction.

Even if Cao Cao didn't need to remind him, Xia Houyuan hadn't been kind to Zhang Yun in recent years.

In the past, there was a Pingma overtime, who used Zhang He as a cannon fodder, and later, outside Yangping Pass, Zhang He sent troops to "Guangshi".

Can't stand it anymore, the sea is full of heroes.

Zhang He never complained, and he was quite competitive. Faced with such unfair treatment, he made amazing achievements, and even left a very high prestige and military exploits in the army.

"Brother, don't worry, I've written these down..." Xia Houyuan kept Cao Cao's words in his heart.

Cao Cao patted him on the shoulder, "You were poor when you were young, and you gave up your son because of food. Gu knows that you are poor and afraid, and Gu also knows that you have been helpless since you were a child. I know your temper and trust you. As the saying goes, 'There is no Hanzhong, no Bashu', as long as you guard here, the whole Great Wei will be stable and there will be no chaos!"

Xia Houyuan felt a heavy responsibility, and should have surrendered his hand.

But... At this time, I couldn't help persuading.

"Brother, you just need to rest assured, but this time in the Xiangfan battlefield, Zijian got into a catastrophe, causing Jiang Xia to lose too... Brother Yu..."

Before Xia Houyuan finished speaking, Cao Cao waved his hand, "Gu knows what you want to say, this time Xiangfan has suffered such a big loss, and it is not only the fault of Zijian alone? In the past two days, Gu has heard some rumors and said It is Jingzhou who have produced two great people. All the civil and military personnel in my Cao Ying have been played around by these two people."

Speaking of this, Xia Houyuan hurriedly said: "Brother is talking about Hong Qigong and Huang Laoxie, right?"

"Hehe..." Cao Cao sneered, "Zixiao, Zihe, Gu Manfujun, Gu Tiebi, and Gu's son all suffered a lot from these two, Gu wants to meet in person Let's see how good are 'Hong Qigong' and 'Huang Laoxie'? How capable are they?"

Xia Houyuan said with emotion: "This is the reason why the eldest brother really withdrew from Hanzhong."

"There is one more." Cao Cao took out Xiahoudun's letterhead from his bosom and handed it to Xiahouyuan, who quickly unfolded it.

But seeing the line of text above, it was shocking.

"This...is this?" Xia Houyuan's voice was hoarse.

"Hehe." Cao Cao said with a sneer, "Since Xun Lingjun died, in the past three years, how has Xu Capital ever been safe? This time, Yuan Rang actually found a 'dead man' in Rang Mountain and in Luoyang City. This is someone You want to draw the bottom of the big Wei! This is someone who wants to put me to death!"

Speaking of this, Cao Cao's expression was angry...

Xia Houyuan asked back: "Yes... Your Majesty?"

"Although it may not be him, at least it has nothing to do with the Han court?" Cao Cao's eyes narrowed.

The competition for Wei Shizi was mentioned.

Xia Houyuan couldn't help but asked again: "Then the choice of this son, the eldest brother is interested...Which son?"

"Haha..." This question made Cao Cao laugh out loud.

"Why are you laughing, big brother?"

"Today Miaocai asked Gu, and Gu recalled that among all the officials in the Han court, Xun Lingjun was the only one who mentioned the matter of setting up a crown prince to Gu. Xun Lingjun suggested that Gu should be a leader, but one person suggested that he should be a virtuous person." !"

Hearing Cao Cao talk about these secret things, Xia Houyuan quickly asked: "Who suggested the eldest brother 'Li Xian'?"

"—The ink marks are still there, the man has passed away, what a pity for Fengxiao!" Cao Cao said with emotion: "Even now, Gu can no longer ask Fengxiao, who is the word "Lixian" he left for Gu? This is 'Xian'!"

Xia Houyuan's eyes flickered, and he murmured: "When I was young, my elder brother always taught me to make the country safe and the people a virtuous person. Among the sons of my elder brother, Zihuan, Ziwen, and Zijian are the oldest and most talented. As for who?" He is the real virtuous talent, elder brother should investigate carefully."

call…

Cao Cao took a deep breath, and said loudly, "Ziwen doesn't want to study. After all, he is only a general. He is not as good as Zihuan and Zijian. It seems that Zihuan is more stable after Xiangfan's defeat."

"But to establish a hegemony alone, it is inevitable to kill too much. After being alone... Wei should be lenient. From this point of view, Zijian is more suitable."

Speaking of this, Cao Cao sighed and said, "If Gu Nachong'er hadn't died young, why worry about having no savings?"

For a moment, Cao Cao showed a huge sad and tired expression.

"Brother..." Xia Houyuan still wanted to persuade.

Cao Cao waved his hand, "I won't mention it, I'll go back first, I'll go back..."

Speaking of this, Cao Cao got on his horse, reined in his horse and headed south, and took a last look back at the Shu Road, Bashu, and the Land of Abundance at the end of the Shu Road.

Ha ha…

There was another sneer, Cao Cao's eyes were deep, and he opened his mouth, his words were chilling, as if filled with infinite unwillingness and sorrow.

Finally, he opened his mouth—"Man suffers without feet, and now that he has obtained Longyou, he wants to regain Shu?"

When this sentence came out, the infinite unwillingness and sorrow were mixed together, as if... converging into a picture of "although the tortoise lives long, it still has its time".

This picture is full of helplessness and desolation.

Later generations only said that "Longwangshu" was Cao Cao's sigh.

But who knows, the source of these words is a letter left by Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu after he conquered Tianshui 200 years ago before leaving:

——"If the two cities are taken down, the soldiers can be sent south to attack the captives of Shu. People are not satisfied with their sufferings. After flattening Long, they can look back at Shu."

——"For every soldier, the head must be white."

Especially the last two sentences, which mean:

Every time a sergeant enlists in the army, his hair and beard turn white in the years of war!

——Cao Cao is old!

——Cao Cao has to get old!

——Although the tortoise lives long, it still has its time!

...

...

In Changsha County, outside the Jingzhou First Official Medical Office, a lot of people suddenly gathered here, to be precise, a lot of people from Xinglin.

Everyone frowned, looking at the gate of the medical office eagerly.

Some shouted angrily, "Young Master Guan, how can there be half of the truth in this doctor's writing? What do you mean?"

"Yeah... What's the rest of The Plague? Did you write it for us?"

"There is no such thing as a tantalizing one!"

As if, the crowd is excited...

A sense of sight of "knife in hand" and "everyone condemns the broken dog".

Although it is not illegal to break the rules like this, it is immoral!

There is no medical book that reaches the most critical point and stops abruptly.

It's like reading a novel in the middle, and your meowing is suddenly cut off-wouldn't the reader be "like a stick in the throat"?Greeting you with frozen fish?

Lu Su and Zhuge Jin also heard the movement outside.

With Zhuge Jin's support, Lu Su got up slowly and went to the door.

"This is…"

A personal guard quickly explained: "I heard that Fourth Master Guan distributed a medical book to each of these Xinglin doctors. It is very delicate, but it stopped abruptly at the most critical part... No, these doctors are all gathered here. Come to 'condemn' Guan Sigong?"

Hearing this, Lu Su smiled lightly, "What is this condemnation? Guan Lin wrote the medical book. If he doesn't finish writing it, will these doctors have anything to do?"

Zhuge Jin replied: "You can't say that, isn't this kid purely tantalizing?"

Lu Su seemed to see through everything, "It's not exciting, can these doctors come? These people in Xinglin are all self-proclaimed, who will convince others? If they are not convinced... how can they join this official medical office?"

Although he didn't come here for a long time, Lu Su still figured out some things.

During this time, Guan Lin was preparing for the first official medical office in Jingzhou.

But it seems that the doctors are quite worried, and very few join them.

Based on this premise, let's look at the scene before us.

Lu Su couldn't help sighing: "As the saying goes-Jiang Taigong is fishing, and those who wish will take the bait!"

Zhuge Jin smiled, "Jiang Taigong is fishing, the chief inspector has a high opinion of this young master Guan Si? If he is Jiang Taigong, who is the chief inspector?"

"Haha, I'm the fish that the wisher took the bait..." Lu Su replied without thinking.

After saying this, his mood cleared up a lot, and his eyes paid more and more attention to the situation here.

Just then, a voice came out.

"Everyone, everyone..."

As if, hearing that many doctors gathered outside, Zhang Zhongjing ran out quickly, explaining again and again: "Everyone, be safe and don't be impatient, and be safe and don't be impatient. The fourth son will come out soon, come out soon..."

At this time, an elderly doctor asked: "Master Zhongjing? The "Plague Theory" is so exquisite... Who wrote it?"

Without hesitation, Zhang Zhongjing said with emotion: "Who else can write such an exquisite medical book, the fourth master of Sheguan? Many times, I am also amazed at how much is in the belly of this master Yunqi... Knowledgeable in medical theory? But... anyway, this is my Xinglin's blessing!"

Zhang Zhongjing is highly respected.

When he said this, all the doctors closed their mouths, and looked at the gate more and more eagerly.

New healers came slowly from the periphery and joined this massive "condemnation of broken chapter dogs" action.

For a while, the place near the gate of the medical department was eerily quiet, but the surrounding... was extremely noisy and uproarious.

Over there...

In the medical office, Zhang Xingcai was grinding ink as usual, and Guan Lin was writing something on the paper.

While grinding the ink, Zhang Xingcai whispered the words written by Guan Lin: "Soochow is about to raid Hefei. This is a confidential news. It must be spread to Fancheng as soon as possible."

Thinking of this, Zhang Xingcai was startled. "Yunqi just said that it was you who told the governor of the Eastern Wu that Zhang Liao was not in Hefei, and advised the Eastern Wu to attack Hefei? Why now... you want to tell Cao Wei about it?"

"Shh..."

Zhang Xingcai's voice was not small.

Guan Lin covered her mouth. He lowered his voice and said, "My aunt... Keep your voice down, this medical department still lives with the governor of Soochow? Let him hear it, and it will be over. "

Oh…

Zhang Xingcai shrank her neck, and suddenly the female man became like a little girl who did something wrong, and lowered her head slightly.

But after a while, she still couldn't bear the curiosity and asked in a low voice.

"What the hell do you want to do?"

"You don't understand that." Guan Lin also replied in a low voice, the two of them were like intimate couples talking in whispers. "Let me ask you a question? How do you think the three pillars stand today, when it comes to the strength of Wei, Shu, and Wu?"

"Then Cao Wei's dominance in the nine counties must be number one. Uncle and Zhuge's military advisers always say that the Sun family has gone through three generations and has a profound foundation. This is the second. Our Jingzhou and Bashu... have a shallow foundation, so it's the third..."

Just like Zhang Xingcai's analysis...

Perhaps in the future, in the battle of Dingjun Mountain, at the node after the flooding of the Seventh Army, the Shuhan will surpass Soochow and become the second existence.

But at least for now, including for a long time to come, when it comes to national strength... the Shu Han will rank third.

Guan Lin nodded and said, "So, what do you think we should do as the third party?"

"Let's fight with the first one! Keep weakening it, and keep strengthening ourselves." As she spoke, Zhang Xingcai clenched her fists. She felt that there was nothing she couldn't solve with her fists.

Guan Lin waved his hand, "That's wrong, as the third one, of course we want to fight the first one, but we can't fight alone, because while the boss is consuming, our third child is also consuming it. A way to hurt yourself by eight hundred."

"Then what should we do?" Zhang Xingcai blinked his big eyes.

"Think of a way to fool the first and second dozen." Guan Lin's eyes were firm, and he tapped the letterhead on the table with his fingers. Although his tone was low, the context was sonorous and powerful, "As long as the first and second dozen, Maybe one of them will make a lot of money, but we will never lose money... This is the most sensible strategy, to exchange the smallest price for the greatest consumption... This consumption will accumulate over time, and in the end...hehe..."

Guan Lin smiled slightly.

Oh…

Zhang Xingcai suddenly realized, "I understand, Brother Yunqi means that as long as the first and second fights, no matter who wins or loses, there will be losses. They may make blood, but we will never lose... So... Yunqi First, I persuaded Soochow to fight Hefei, and then sent a letter to Jiangling, asking Cao Wei to send troops to support Hefei. Once they came and went, they started fighting!"

"That's right...it's good to fight! I'm afraid they won't fight!"

Guan Lin nodded heavily and looked at Zhang Xingcai approvingly.

I muttered in my heart.

——"Although she is Uncle Zhang's daughter and has inherited some of Uncle Zhang's brain circuits, her thinking is still very clear! 』

It's just... one thing, Zhang Xingcai was wrong.

That is, Guan Lin never planned to spread the news to Xiangfan by means of dissemination.

On the contrary, this is Li Miao's chance.

Once used well, it can help him get close to Cao Zhi quickly.

You know-giving charcoal in the snow is always ten times more precious than icing on the cake.

With this in mind, Guan Lin continued to write.

——"Use this as an opportunity... find an opportunity to approach Cao Zijian in secret, and help him rush to Hefei, which will definitely win his favor! Becoming a guest of his shogunate, but there is one person, Yang Xiu, who needs to be careful. This person has some talents. But he is proud of his talents and cannot tolerate others!"

Just finished writing these...

Mi Yang and Mi Lu walked in.

Mi Lu reported: "Fourth son, a lot of Xinglin doctors have gathered outside the door... It looks menacing."

Mi Yang said, "Prefect Liao specially sent someone to ask the Fourth Young Master, do you want to send someone to disperse them?"

"No need!" Guan Lin said as he dried the written letterhead and rolled it up...

He handed the letter to Mi Yang, and ordered very solemnly: "Send this letter immediately to Mr. Huang at Mianshui Villa on the outskirts of Jiangling, he knows what to do."

"Here!" Mi Yang quickly agreed.

Mi Lu reminded: "Fourth Young Master, now outside..."

Before he could finish speaking, Guan Lin stood up slowly, and said with a smile, "The fish finally took the bait...it's boring to drive away."

While laughing, Guan Lin walked out the door with dragon and tiger steps.

And with his appearance...

The uproarious voices outside the medical office suddenly fell silent.

Guan Lin seems to have been prepared for a long time...

Immediately, a simple wooden "speaker" was brought over by a trilogy, and Guan Lin walked up to the loudspeaker.

"Hey--"

"Hey hey-"

He's auditioning...

And this sudden amplified voice made all the doctors stunned...

——"This fourth son of Guan has such a loud voice! 』

Guan Lin said loudly in the eyes of everyone.

——"As you have guessed, I wrote this "Theory of Plague", and I wrote half of it on purpose... just to make you 'stuck in your throat', and to let you come to 'condemn me' in person!"

Have no fear...

Lu Su and Zhuge Jin were also there.

Hearing Guan Lin's words, these eight words immediately came to mind - infinite arrogance!Have nothing to fear!

Sure enough, Guan Lin's words caused an uproar in front of the door, and there was already a faint "public anger"!

His infinite arrogance...

It's like in the online novels of later generations, a dog author who doesn't know what is good or bad, said to the respected, tall, handsome, handsome, rich, and talented reader master:
——I'm out of context, what can you do to me?
—Where do you send me the blade?

——You put me in a small black room?
——Do you have the ability to beat me with a whip?
This kind of dog author simply doesn't want face!
And as the uproar in front of the door grew louder...

"Cough cough cough..." Guan Lin coughed lightly again, and he opened his mouth and said, "Dear Xinglin doctors, today I specially asked you to come to the gate of the Jingzhou Medical Office to denounce me. Let me tell you..."

Speaking of this, Guan Lin's anger sank to his dantian...

A strong and thick voice came from his throat.

--"I have a dream!"

...
