Rebirth of the Three Kingdoms: The New Biography of Guan Ping

Liu Biao smiled slightly, stared at Guan Ping for a few seconds, very satisfied, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, he is a young hero, and I will give you wine."
'Thank you Jingzhou. Guan Ping drank the wine handed by his maid in one gulp.

'good! 'Liu Biao smiled even more.

After a few rounds of drinking, everyone began to talk about the general trend of the world.At present, there are only two places that can pose a threat to Jingzhou, er, the opponent. One is Sun Quan in the east, and Cao Cao in the north.

Although Sun Quan is fierce, he has been blocked by Jiangxia Huangzu for several years, and Cao Cao, who brought Yuan Zhiwei down, conquered Runan, and drove Liu Bei down. He may go south to Jingzhou at any time, so he naturally became everyone focus of discussion. [

In the audience, if anyone knows Cao Cao best, it is naturally Liu Bei who was beaten by Cao Cao repeatedly and fled. The second is Guan Ping, who is valued by Cao Cao.

In the past few days, Liu Bei had already told all he knew about Cao Cao at the banquet, so Liu Biao naturally set his sights on Guan Ping.Knowing more information about Cao Cao from Guan Ping's mouth is also the biggest purpose of Liu Biao's visit to Guan Ping this time.

"Nephew, tell me roughly what you know about Cao Cao. 'Liu Biao liked Guan Ping more and more. He heard that he was very famous. He thought he was a crazy man, but unexpectedly he was handsome and refined, neither humble nor overbearing. If he could win him over, he could be my son's arm.

'yes. Guan Ping stood up, crossed to the hall, and said lightly: "Cao Jun's tent is full of talents. There are tigers and leopards riding Ba Xiao, and Guo Fengxiao, Xun Yu's nephew, and Jia Xu, etc., should not be underestimated; but Its army is strictly controlled, rewards and punishments are clearly defined, and soldiers and salties work hard for it. '

Everyone knows the above, so it is basically nonsense. Liu Biao was also a little disappointed, but Guan Ping continued to speak, saying: "The soldiers and horses in the lower command unit have joined forces with Liu Huangshu to fight against Cao Cao several times, and there are few victories." , Most of them are failures, and they are very ashamed. '

When these words came out, everyone in the hall had different expressions. The bureaucrats in Jingzhou had expressions of watching the play with great interest, while Liu Biao was concentrating on thinking.As for Liu Bei, his face was already ashen.

No matter how famous Guan Ping's name is, no matter how much his current official title is comparable to Liu Bei's, everyone regards Guan Ping as Liu Bei's subordinate.But today in the hall, Guan Ping said, "The soldiers and horses under the command of the subordinates have joined forces with Liu Huangshu to fight against Cao Cao several times." He told Liu Biao, Liu Bei, and the Jingzhou bureaucrats clearly: I, Guan Ping, am the only Chengyi has nothing to do with Uncle Liu Huang. This time when I went to Jingzhou, two forces came down at the same time, not Liu Bei. You should not only settle Liu Bei in Xinye, but ignore me, Guan Ping.

The time in the lobby seemed to be stagnant for a few seconds. After a while, Liu Biao laughed and said, "Everyone, let's drink, haha..."

There is only one word in Liu Biao's mind: check and balance.

He remembered what his beloved wife said to him when he was sleeping yesterday: "Liu Bei, first followed Tao Qian, then followed Lu Bu, and then Cao Cao. When he voted for Yuan Shao, he would never live under others for a long time. Now he will enter Jingzhou, and he will not be allowed to stay here for a long time." Not defense. '

That's right, Liu Bei is a fierce tiger, and Guan Ping is a vicious wolf, why not let them check and balance each other, both are driven by me.

Guan Ping was in the middle, but he kept looking at Liu Biao's expression. Seeing him contemplating first and then showing his face, he knew that he had a countermeasure in mind, so he said, "Ping came down from Runan, fortunately Jingzhou took him in, and Cao Cao, I don't know when I will go south, but I would like to station in the north of Xiangyang to keep Cao Cao away and repay Jingzhou's kindness. '

Liu Biao was taken aback, he only had one thought of letting them fight each other, but he didn't expect Guan Ping to be so impatient, presumably there was a lot of conflict between him and Liu Bei, let's not be in a hurry now, let him be in Xinye, It's also good to restrain Liu Bei.

Thinking of this, Liu Biao said with a smile: "My nephew has been fighting for a long time, and he is still a little anxious after all. There is no need to rush this matter. Since you have this kind of heart, it will naturally come in handy in the future, so don't be impatient." '

Guan Ping responded and sat down.

The crowd drank a few more rounds, Liu Biao was no longer strong enough to drink, so he went back to the back hall, and the crowd dispersed.

But Guan Ping walked up to Liu Bei in a hurry, bowed his body deeply, and seeing no one around, he said in a low voice: "Uncle, what my son did is really to confuse Liu Jingzhou and fight for more troops for his uncle. I hope my uncle will not be blamed." '

Liu Bei sneered from the bottom of his heart, and cursed the wolf cub secretly, but his face was still kind, and he said: "I know that Ping'er is thinking, you are restless." '

'Uncle Xie. '[
