The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 425
Dongfang Sheng once again set up a battle against Yu Jin and Cao Hong. When the two armies faced each other, Dongfang Sheng asked Yu Jin to chat with them.

Chatting before the battle is the most prominent feature of the cold weapon period.

Yu Jin and Cao Hong went to the appointment happily. Although Cao Jun was numerous and overwhelming, the Suwei camp behind Dongfang Sheng was not inferior to Cao Jun in terms of momentum.

Dongfang Sheng rode out, and the fiery red Chitu horse inspected Yu Jin and Cao Hong's horses like an emperor in a military parade. For a moment, their horses took a step back, which made Yu Jin and Cao Hong lose at the beginning A trace of momentum.

Dongfang Sheng lightly reined in the horse, and said with a smile, "Long time no see, Wen Ze."

As soon as Dongfang Sheng spoke, Yu Jin felt that something was wrong, because everyone knew that the protagonist this time was Cao Hong and not him, but Dongfang Sheng greeted him first, and his attitude was affectionate, as if they were old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years.

Yu Jin took a peek at Cao Hong, and found that Cao Hong's face changed slightly, and he was crying in his heart, so he patted his horse and stepped forward to reprimand Dongfang Sheng with righteous words.

As soon as Dongfang Sheng saw Yu Jin approaching him, he immediately rushed forward. He deliberately grabbed Yu Jin and said, "Brother Wen Ze, don't come here unharmed. I think I was taken care of by Brother Wen Ze when I was under Duke Cao's command. Now that I think about it, I am really grateful." .”

No matter how hard Yu Jin tried to find a reason to scold Dongfang Sheng, but Dongfang Sheng put on an attitude of thanking you for taking care of me, so he couldn't get mad.

At present, Yu Jin could only talk to Dongfang Shengxu and Wei Snake, while Dongfang Sheng pretended to talk to Yu Jin enthusiastically, and praised Yu Jin in his words, saying that he was the most outstanding general under Cao Cao's command. words.

The heads of the two horses alternated, talking and laughing among the two armies for half an hour, Cao Hong's face turned blue.

"If I want to surrender, I will definitely ask Brother Wen Ze to introduce me, and then I will ask Brother Wen Ze to take care of me again." Dongfang Sheng said quite 'seriously', his voice just enough to be heard by Cao Hong at the side.

Yu Jin nodded again and again, and Dongfang Sheng reluctantly retreated to his camp.

Yu Jin turned his horse's head back with a smile on his face, and the clinker saw a black and blue face directly. Cao Hong's face was like the dark clouds in June, and it was directly lightning and thunder.

"Brother Wen Ze is really His Majesty's capable and beloved general. I can't wait to catch up." Cao Hong said in a strange way.

Yu Jin had just been praised by Dongfang Sheng, and he was a little upset when he heard Cao Hong's words, so he replied directly: "I have been fighting in the battlefield in Yu Jin for these years, and my lord once praised me as comparable to an ancient famous general, which is much better than some related households."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Yu Jin felt that something was wrong. He also felt comfortable being flattered by Dongfang Sheng, so he got a little carried away.

Sure enough, Cao Hong directly said: "Huh, the famous generals of the ancient times were born noble and achieved extraordinary achievements. How can you dare to compare with them?"

The most hurtful words are to poke people's shortcomings. Yu Jin said that Cao Hong is a related family, otherwise Cao Hong made a fuss based on Yu Jin's low status.

As soon as Cao Hong mentioned his identity, Yu Jin immediately felt some blood rushing into his head. At that moment, the two of them actually called gold to withdraw the troops, and broke up unhappy after they separated.

Seeing this situation, Dongfang Sheng also didn't take the opportunity to pursue it, and it took a little time to prepare for the separation.

Since then, Dongfang Sheng has always attacked Cao Hong fiercely, but on the contrary, he has been extremely gentle with Jin, and most of the time it was just a feint.

After a few times, Cao Hong also discovered the clues. Combined with the previous performances of Yu Jin and Dongfang Sheng, Cao Hong began to care about in his heart.

Cao Hong wrote an urgent letter and asked Kuai Ma to take it back to Xudu, and Cao Pi replied to him within a few days.

Then Cao Hong took Cao Pi's reply and went to Yu Jin's barracks.

The two marched separately since the last time they had a quarrel before the battle. Cao Hong led his own soldiers and stormed into Yu Jin's military tent, and announced Cao Pi's decision in front of Yu Jin's subordinates: to remove Yu Jin from all positions , Take care of it temporarily, and return to Beijing after the war to wait for release.

The reason why Cao Hong was able to get a reply so quickly and achieve what he wanted was because Cao Pi had his own cautious thoughts. Cao Pi obtained the throne by killing his father, and usurped the throne after killing his father. After this series of changes, Cao Pi always Worried that his patricide would be exposed.

Moreover, some people in Xudu also rumored that Cao Cao was killed by Cao Pi, but these rumors were quickly erased by Cao Pi.

What's more important is that those fierce generals who were like wolves and tigers before Cao Cao's lifetime were all firmly restrained, but after Cao Cao's death, facing Cao Pi, these veteran generals began to put on their veteran status and support themselves.

The most important thing for a new king to do when he ascends the throne is to build his own team, so it is necessary to clean up the old ministers of the previous dynasty.

Unfortunately, Yu Jin was on the list. He was a general with a foreign surname, and he was not very popular. Dealing with him would neither attract the attention of Cao's relatives, nor would it arouse objections from generals with a foreign surname.

But is it that simple?

What Cao Hong didn't expect was that Yu Jin directly attacked and wanted to kill him.

Fortunately, the soldiers led by Cao Hong tried their best to stop him, so Cao Hong fled back to his own camp.

Then, Yu Jin took his men and horses to find Dongfang Sheng.

Yu Jin's ability to work so well under Cao Cao's command shows that he is not a reckless man who only knows martial arts, on the contrary, he has a very bright mind.

Now that Cao Wei has rebelled, Yu Jin also wants to have a good home, but at present he has only two choices, one is to become a bandit, which is the worst way, because after the world is settled, those bandits will inevitably be wiped out In the end, they were all doomed.The second is to take refuge in Cao Wei's rival Dongfang Sheng, but he is not too forbidden and does not want to sell himself to Dongfang Sheng hastily.

After all, he also wants to bring out his own value, so that he can gain more benefits after joining Dongfang Sheng.

When Yu Jin came to Dongfang Sheng's barracks to look for him, Dongfang Sheng was washing his hair. As soon as he heard that Yu Jin was coming, Dongfang Sheng tied his hair with a belt and wrapped it in a dry cloth before coming to see Yu Jin.

Seeing Dongfang Sheng like this, Yu Jin immediately felt admiration after understanding the whole story.

Cao Cao once said in a poem, "The Duke of Zhou vomits and feeds, and the world returns to its heart." '

The allusion here is that when Zhou Gong was eating, when someone asked him for something, he directly spit out the food in his mouth to receive the visitor, and he spit it out three times.

Yu Jin nodded secretly, but his face remained calm. He told Dongfang Sheng about his experience, and then revealed his intention.

Dongfang Sheng didn't expect that his strategy would cause such a big reaction, and he also didn't expect that Cao Pi would do such a stupid thing of imprisoning generals in front of the battle. Is this different from forcing rebellion?
