Chapter 443 Cooking Wine ([-])

One day, two days, three days...

Chen Qun lived in Yanshi like a year.Dian Wei and Xu Shu were not inconsiderate to him, they had two banquets a day, very respectful.

It's no wonder that Chen Qun was born in a rich family, and his ancestors were quite famous, so he would be very polite to anyone he was.

But the more this happened, the more uncertain Chen Qun was, and the more he felt that Dong Bi was actually delaying time with him.Before departure, Cao Cao, Lu Su, and Xun Yu and Xun You had all told him that it was Dong Bie who couldn't afford to negotiate a peace this time, so there was no need to worry too much.Unexpectedly, Dong Bi didn't see him as an old friend at all, which made Chen Qun even more terrified.

For three days in a row, Chen Qun only saw grain carts coming in and out.

Taking advantage of Xu Shu's absence one day, Chen Qun secretly asked Dian Wei, "How did Guanzhong get so much food and grass?"

Dian Wei drank a little too high, and said vaguely: "The governor came up with a method in the Western Regions, so that the Western Regions have a lot of food and grass every year. In addition, the territory is vast and the land is fertile. Many foreigners have been plundered from the west of the Western Regions. , farming in the Western Regions... Over the years, just one land in Daxi Prefecture is enough to consume 50 elite soldiers for three years."

Chen Qun asked again: "How many soldiers and horses are there in the pass?"

Dian Wei was vague and did not speak clearly.However, according to Chen Qun's opinion, it is estimated that there are millions of people.

Are you really going to fight?
The more Chen Qun thought about it, the more frightened he became, and at the same time he became more and more sure that Dong Bi was not going to patrol, but was deliberately avoiding it.

On the fourth day, just when Chen Qun was about to lose his patience, Xu Shu said with a smile, "The governor is here to invite you."

"Is Dong Hou back?"

Chen Qun was very pleasantly surprised, stood up and asked Xu Shu eagerly.

Xu Shu smiled lightly, "The governor is busy with military affairs and hasn't come back yet. But when he heard that my husband arrived, he ordered me to escort him to talk with him... The governor is now in Wushejin, waiting for his arrival. "

Wushejin...

Speaking of which, it is not far from Yanshi, and it just forms a triangle with Yanshi Hulao Pass.

But, why did Dong Bi appear in Wushejin?It is next to the river, isn't Dong Xiping going to break the embankment and flood the water?
When this idea came together, Chen Qun was once again shuddered.

Could it be that Dong Bi wanted to burst the embankment of the river, and flooding Jingzhao would fail...

It can be said that the nature of the embankment-broken river water is completely different from the nature of the embankment-broken Luoshui and Yishui.Luoyang is located in the middle and lower reaches of the Dahe River, and the river channel near Beimang is narrow.In the Taiping age, the river always created many dangers during the flood season.

However, the Han emperors of all dynasties were quite worried about the big river, so they specially appointed officials to inspect the river water and solve the dangerous situation.

However, since Dong Zhuo's death, the river has not been repaired for ten years...

If Dong Pi broke the embankment, Luoyang's more than [-] troops would basically have no hope.

Sometimes, people tend to be like this.When something gets into the horns, it is very difficult to pull it out.The smarter the person, the harder it is to let go.This is the situation of Chen Qun now. He has not seen Dong Bi yet, but his confidence is gone.

At Wushejin Ferry, the flags are unfurled, covering the sky and the sun.

It was the first day of Mengchun, the river froze, and huge ice blocks hit the river surface, making a rumbling sound.The river is tumbling, passing east... Roaring, tumbling, and swirling, the scenery looks particularly spectacular.

Dong Bi's Chinese army camp is located on the high ground next to Wushejin.

Many captives in the uniforms of the Union Army, under the pressure of swords and guns, were extremely busy along the river bank, as if they were strengthening the embankment.

Chen Qun sneered: Has Dong Xiping also learned to use tricks?How can you hide it from me for such a mere trick?
From a distance, he saw Dong Bi's majestic and burly figure.Although it was only from the back, Chen Qun still recognized it at a glance.

Dong Bi is over a foot tall, so the body is not very bloated.After a year of fighting, instead of losing weight, he became more burly and muscular, weighing around three hundred catties.Maybe it's because of the connection with Wuqinxi all the year round, so tall and heavy, but not clumsy.Standing among the crowd is like a lion king surrounded by lions.

Wearing a black battle robe with leather armor inside.

She didn't wear peeping clothes either, and her long hair was simply tied up in a bun.In his hand was a nine-foot long knife, which was heavy and had an extra texture.In Dong Yu's own words: I am getting heavier and heavier, and I am afraid that Ah Chou's burden will also become heavier.

As a result, in the past two years, unless there was a big war, Dong Bi generally would not use the double hammer.

The drum, urn, and golden hammer were dragged by a horse, and they were guarded by someone... At this moment, the horse and the lion-maned beast were standing behind Dong Bi.

Pei Yuanshao said softly: "Master, Chen Qun is here!"

Dong Bi was staring at the surging river in a daze, and suddenly woke up, then let out a long breath, and turned around solemnly.

"Chen Qun pays his respects to the governor!"

"Brother Changwen, you and I fought side by side in Yingchuan, why do you have to do so many vain rituals? Hurry up, hurry up!"

As he spoke, Dong Bi quickly walked up to Chen Qun and helped him up.

He narrowed his eyes, with a smile on his face.But that terrifying face made Chen Qun feel an inexplicable fear.

Today's Dong Xiping is no longer the boy who would be surprised when he heard his name 17 years ago.On the contrary, Chen Qun felt an inexplicable coercion from Dong Bi, which made him unable to keep calm.

The two exchanged a few pleasantries, and Dong Bi dragged Chen Qun into the tent.

As if intentionally or unintentionally, Chen Qun asked: "Commander, there are so many people by the river, what are they doing?"

"Ah, this is..."

Dong Bi smiled, "A few days ago, I heard that the river at Wushejin Ferry was soaring, so I ordered people to repair the embankment here. You also know that the river here is very narrow. Once the flood season comes, I am worried that the river will suddenly rise. The dike in between."

Break the embankment!

Chen Qun heard these two words very sensitively, and directly covered up Dong Pi's other words.

"Brother Changwen, what advice do you have for coming to my place this time?"

Dong Bi took Chen Qun into the big tent and asked straight to the point.

As for this matter, Chen Qun's eyes were fixed on the cowhide map hanging on the side of the big tent.To be honest, Chen Qun is not an excellent military talent, but he can still understand ordinary maps.Seeing him staring at the map, Dong Bi changed his expression slightly, stood up and stood in front of the map, and said angrily, "Bohou, why hasn't this map been taken away yet?"

"Ah... the last general was negligent!"

Pei Yuanshao hurried in and took the cowhide map away.

The time was not too long, but during this intermittent time, Chen Qun had already recognized that it was a topographic map of the river.

My heart skipped a beat, it looks like I guessed right.

Chen Qun got up and cupped his hands and said, "Governor, Qun came here today, but he was ordered by the Prime Minister to write a letter to the Governor."

"Next book?"

Chen Qun presented Cao Cao's letter to Dong Bi, and then explained Cao Cao's meaning in a simple and clear manner.

Of course, it was impossible for him to show Cao Cao's hole cards, but he said that everyone was very tired from the protracted battle.You have saved your face and taken advantage of it, shouldn't you stop it?Let's talk if you want.

In the letter, it uses gorgeous words to tell the thoughts of Cao Cao and Dong Bi after parting from Xingyang.

Dong Bi put down the letter and closed his eyes slightly, as if he was in deep thought or fell asleep, without saying a word.

Chen Qun was in a hurry, "Governor, the purpose of Qun's visit has already been explained, I wonder how the Great Governor will make a decision?"

"Well... Changwen, you've worked hard all the way, so don't worry. I've ordered someone to hold a banquet, let's..."

"Grand Governor, Qun came here on orders, and should put state affairs first. I have already wasted a lot of time before, so there is no need for this banquet. The governor only needs to tell Qun your opinion."

Dong Bi casually threw the letterhead on the table, and said in a long voice: "Changwen, this matter is very important, how can you explain it all at once? Besides, there are some things that you can't decide. What's there to talk about?"

"The governor means..."

"Let Mengde come. Some things are better explained in person. What do you think?"

Chen Qun's heart suddenly became angry!

Dong Xiping, you are too rude.It's quite simple, let my lord come over and talk to you?The question is, my master is here, will you let him go?Although it is said that asking prices all over the sky and paying back the money on the ground, it can't be like this.

However, there is fire in my heart, and I can't vent it yet.

After all, there are 10,000+ people in Jingzhao, and it is only possible to leave alive if this person speaks out.

"Great governor, isn't this not good?"

Dong Bi smiled, "Changwen, you can see that I am very busy now, and I have many things to deal with every day, and I really can't get away. Otherwise, I will go to Xingyang and have a good drink with Meng De No need to bother you to pass on a message... Well, since you can't be the master, Brother Changwen, then go back and ask. Meng De and I met when we were in decline. If it weren't for good fortune to trick others, we really don't want to be enemies with him... Ha ha , Brother Changwen, please forgive me for sending it off soon!"

Without saying a word, Dong Bi is about to see off the guests!
Chen Qun held back his anger, but he couldn't do anything about it.

"In that case, I should report the truth to the Prime Minister."

After shaking his sleeves and leaving, Dong Bi sent Chen Qun out of the big tent with a smile, and watched him lead people away on horseback.

Pang Tong rushed out from behind the big tent, "What? Brother Dong... Did that guy vomit blood from anger?"

Dong Bi frowned, and said softly, "A Chou, am I going too far?"

"Hehe, there's nothing wrong with that. Although Brother Dong, you and Chen Qun have met several times, but now the two countries are confronting each other, and it's always an intrigue. It just depends on who can deceive the other. I guess this time he will be fooled." Not light."

Pang Tong said with a smile.

But Dong Bi didn't show a smile.

On the contrary, he looked very tired, patted Pang Tong on the shoulder, then turned around and walked into the big tent...

The second update will still be later, around eleven o'clock.

Well, can you give me a monthly pass?
