Cao Thief

Chapter 615 Hidden Worries (22)

Who is Cao Peng?

Just when Liu Bei began to feel great pressure for Cao Peng's arrival, the whole Nanyang, and even Jingzhou, were talking about this name.

As the new year is approaching, Xiangyang ushered in a heavy snowfall.

Liu Biao leaned on the bed, wondering: "Why does Meng De let the child take care of himself?"

There is a lot of disdain in the words.

But Kuai Yue Kuai Liang, Cai Mao Zhang Yun, Yi Ji Li Gui and others beside the bed knew that Liu Biao was insincere.In fact, Liu Biao really felt a pity!This Cao Peng should have belonged to his subordinates!But unexpectedly, Huang She forced him to leave and went to Xudu.

Back then, how could Liu Biao have not heard about Huang She Nine Girls City forcing Cao Peng to rebel?
He can still remember that the Pang Ji brothers ran into the prefecture and questioned them angrily, leaving Liu Biao speechless.It's just that Liu Biao didn't care at the time.One is an insignificant peasant, and the other is a descendant of the Huang family in Jiangxia, the son of Huang Zu, his confidant.Which is closer and which is far, can naturally be seen at a glance.Although the Pang Ji brothers were dissatisfied with this, they only questioned them, and there was no further comment.

Because they knew that this matter could not have any results.

In the end, Pang Ji took the lead, and Duke Pang De went to Lumen Mountain to live in seclusion, and never cared about world affairs.

The matter gradually calmed down.

It was not until two years later that Cao Peng became famous with a humble room inscription in Dongling Pavilion that he attracted Liu Biao's attention.

Liu Biao has an inexplicable affection for people with literary talent.He himself was one of the Eight Gus at that time, and he was even called Jiangxia Bajun in Jingzhou.Governing Jingxiang, except for the earliest strict iron and blood, is basically governed by literature.When he finished reading the humble room inscription, he couldn't help but praise it again and again.But when he asked the people around him about the origin of Cao Peng, he immediately forgot about it...

Later, Cao Peng wrote an [-]-character essay and hoped that his father would become a dragon, which was a good story at that time.

Liu Biao became interested in Cao Peng again, and once said privately to people around him: It's a pity that I have good talents, but they can't be used by me...

Until then, he started to regret it.

After the [-]-character essay, Cao Peng was out of control.

Three Character Classics, two articles of Disciple Regulations were published, and they were named as three articles of Cao.

If Liu Biao is placed in later generations, he will definitely be a model of that kind of literary youth.After reading the Three Character Classic, I couldn't help but sigh deeply, feeling deeply regretful.

That was the first time Liu Biao expressed his dissatisfaction with Huang Zu.

Of course, Huang Zu was already dead at that time!
Everyone beside the bed responded with silence.

Is Cao Peng really a 'child'?If this is the case, it is impossible for him to destroy Ma Teng in the northwest, fix Qiang Hu, and seek the entire Liangzhou for Cao Cao.

"How is Xuande now?"

"Uncle Liu Huang sits in the city of Wan, and is mobilizing troops and riding horses.

If Cao Peng's children come, I'm afraid they won't get any benefits...Father don't need to worry, Xiahou Dun is no match for Duke Xuande, and neither is Cao Peng. "

It was Liu Biao's son, Liu Pan, who spoke.

"Jushi, that's wrong."

Jushi is Liu Pan's watchword.

Cai Mao sneered and said, "I've heard people say that Xiahou Yuanrang has a strong temper, but Cao Youxue is good at attacking people later. This person is by no means comparable to Xiahou Dun, a reckless man. What's more, he was originally from Nanyang County. Compared with Xiahou Dun, he has a great advantage. It can be more important to the local tyrants.

Liu Bei can beat Xiahou Dun, but he may not be Cao Peng's opponent. "

Liu Pan is Liu Biao's follower, but he is the staunch eldest son.The so-called eldest son is Liu Qi.The relationship between Liu Pan and Liu Qi is far from comparable to that of Liu Cong.He is also from Shanyang's old department, and he holds military power, and he is out of the town of Changsha.In terms of power, he may not lose to Cai Mao and others.

Liu Pan said coldly: "Then according to the general's intention, could it be that he will be captured without a fight?"

"I……"

"Degui, Jushi, don't argue.

It is not without benefits for Xuande to be stationed in Nanyang, at least it can guard the door for Jingzhou.It is unclear whether he is Cao Peng's opponent, but I think Xuande will definitely try it out.However, relying solely on Xuande, it is unavoidable to be alone... Where is the tiger? "

"Nephew is here!"

Standing behind Liu Pan was a man in his thirties, nearly nine feet tall, with broad arms and round waist, and powerful martial arts.

His name was Liu Hu, and he was Liu Biao's nephew.It is also from the old Shanyang Department, but although he is close to Yi Ji and others, he is more loyal to Liu Biao.Liu Hu is a titan!In his early years, he was stationed in Wuling and fought many times with the Wuxi Man; later he went to Jiangxia and fought with Sun Ce.He is also under Liu Biao's command, a rare brave general.Liu Biao once praised: "A lion in the east of the Yangtze River is no match for a tiger in our family."

Prior to this, Liu Hu left Zhenjiang Mausoleum to take control of the entire supply, grain and grass in Jingxiang.

Liu Biao said, "Would Juyan be willing to guard Zhangling?"

Zhangling is located to the east of Xinye, only one Xiangxiang County away from Huyang.It is also where the Jingzhou portal is located, and has an extremely important position.

This place needs to be guarded by confidants.

On the one hand, it can assist Liu Bei to contain Cao Jun's Huyang soldiers; on the other hand, it can control Liu Bei and prevent Liu Bei from becoming bigger in Nanyang.

Liu Hu stepped in and responded: "My nephew is dispatched by my uncle."

"Wende!"

"The end is here."

"It's up to you to sit in Chaoyang, and the giant rock is in Zhangling. Please take care of it."

Wende, named Li Gui, is Liu Biao's official.The so-called Muguan refers to a staff without real power, similar to the staff function of later generations.However, Li Gui was also loyal to Liu Biao, so Liu Biao appointed him as the Chaoyang Guard.Its purpose is quite similar to Liu Hu's coming out of Zhangling.

Li Gui thought for a while, and said: "The final general wishes to go to Chaoyang...but the final general still hopes to ask Mr. Pan for someone, I wonder if it is possible?"

Liu Pan immediately showed vigilance.

"Wende, who do you want?

Let me say it first, if you ask for Shuping, I will definitely not agree. "

Shuping, whose name is Wang Wei, is a highly capable general under Liu Biao's command.However, Wang Wei is from Jingxiang, so he belongs to Liu Cong's lineage.But this person is indeed very capable. Liu Pan didn't want to make too much trouble with the Jingxiang family when he left the town of Changsha, so he asked Wang Wei to work under him.

Li Gui couldn't help laughing, "Mr. Pan, don't be nervous, I know you value Wang Shuping and don't want to ask for it.

The person I borrowed from the son is Huang Hansheng.But I don't know if the son can give up his love? "

Liu Pan couldn't help but hesitate!

The Huang Hansheng mentioned by Li Gui was named Huang Zhong, a native of Nanyang County.This man is extremely brave. He once guarded You County with Liu Pan, and invaded Yuai and Xi'an counties.Later, Sun Ce had to divide Haihun and Jianchang into six counties on the left and right, and ordered Tai Shici to be the captain of Jianchang, so he could be regarded as resisting Liu Pan and others.This person is also valued by Liu Pan, but he is already old, so in comparison, Liu Pan pays more attention to Wang Wei.

However, Huang Zhong has unstoppable courage, so he still feels reluctant to lend it out.

But since Li Gui spoke, and he said that everyone except Wang Wei could be seconded, it is not easy to go back on his word.

"Wende can be promoted by Han, but he can't be wronged."

Li Gui said with a smile: "Don't worry about Jushi, I know Han Sheng's bravery. If Mr. Pan is willing to lend it to me, then I will ask the lord for the post of general. I wonder if the lord will agree?"

Liu Biao smiled and agreed.

However, except for Kuai Yue, no one noticed that a look of displeasure flashed across Liu Hu's face.

Liu Hu is just a general, but now an old soldier, he is of the same rank as him?This made Liu Hu very unhappy, and even thought of being humiliated.

Kuai Yue secretly sighed in his heart, but did not speak.

After discussing for a while, Liu Biao felt very tired, so he asked everyone to retreat.

After Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang walked out of the gate of the state, Kuai Liang was about to board the carriage when he heard Kuai Yue say, "Zirou, would you like to ride with me?"

Kuai Liang was taken aback, and said with a smile: "Since my elder brother invites you, how dare Liang not respect you?"

After finishing speaking, he motioned to his retainers to follow behind with his chariot and horse.And he boarded Kuai Yue's carriage, sat down in the carriage, and stretched his body.

"Brother, your car is indeed luxurious."

The more luxurious Kuai is, this is well known to everyone in Jingxiang.

Hearing Kuai Liang's exclamation, Kuai Yue laughed and said, "If you like Zirou, I will give it to Zirou later."

"That little brother is so disrespectful."

The relationship between the two brothers is very good, and there is no politeness between them.

Kuai Liang asked: "Brother is looking for me, but you have something to say?"

Kuai Yue pondered for a moment, then said, "Zirou, do you think Cao Gong ordered Cao Youxue to be the prefect of Nanyang, does it have a deep meaning?"

Kuai Liang opened the window curtains of the car, looked outside, and said softly: "Cao Youxue, I also know something about him. When Kuaizheng was the eunuch of Jiyang, he wrote a letter saying that Cao Youxue should not be taken lightly. It's just that No one thought that later... the Huang family made a mistake, which made us lose our talent. Watching Mr. Cao's actions, every step has a deep meaning. He ordered Cao Peng to leave the town of Nanyang, probably for future planning. The battle of Hebei is imminent , the son of the Yuan family is by no means Duke Cao's opponent. When Duke Cao joins the north, he will send troops to conquer Jingxiang."

"Cao Peng, can you stabilize Nanyang?"

"It's hard to say... But Mr. Cao has always been cautious in employing people.

Even Xiahou Dun was not Liu Xuande's opponent, but Cao Gong regarded Cao Peng as the prefect of Nanyang County, presumably because he believed that Cao Peng could defeat Liu Bei. "

"Liu Xuande, are you a jackal?

If he sits firmly in Nanyang, he may lose Jingzhou. "

Kuai Liang thought so, nodded and remained silent...

"Today I noticed that when Li Wende recommended Huang Hansheng, Mr. Juyan seemed to be unhappy.

Think that Huang Hansheng is an old soldier, but he is on the same level as Mr. Juyan.I wanted to dissuade you just now, but seeing the lord seems to have made up his mind.If my guess is right, if Jing Xiang made a mistake, then Zhang Ling must be a flaw.Liu Bei is afraid that it will be difficult to stop Cao Peng. You and I need to find a way out for our people. "

Kuai Yue said softly, causing Kuai Liang's expression to change.

"Then, in my brother's opinion, how should I act?"

"Tomorrow, you will go to Lumen Mountain, no matter what, you must meet Degong.

In other words, his former disciple returned to Nanyang.If you can't bear Jingxiang's loss of life, please ask Degong to come out of the mountain and speak to his disciples on his behalf. "

Many people know that Duke Pang De wanted to accept Cao Peng as his disciple.

Later, after Cao Peng became famous, Pang Degong said it was a pity in front of everyone more than once.However, no one expected that Cao Peng would also worship Hu Zhao as his teacher.This is also one of the reasons why Duke Pound felt disheartened.After that, Huang Chengyan went to Xudu and never returned, and Pang Ji died of illness, which finally made Pang Degong escape to Lumen Mountain, where he was hidden from the world.His whereabouts are unknown, except for a few.

Coincidentally, Kuai Liang was one of those few people.

"Besides, Cao Youxue first arrived in Nanyang... you ask Kuai Zheng to go to Wuyin to find out what Cao Youxue is saying.

I remember that Ziyang is at home now, so I will add him to an official position and take a trip for you and me. What does Zirou think? "
