Although Tao Qian is old. But still heard something in Jian Yong's words. Hurriedly asked: "Mr. May Fei has a countermeasure."
Jian Yong smiled and said: "If you want to find a countermeasure. You must first know who is spreading these rumors. If you want to know who is spreading these rumors. You must know who is most beneficial to these rumors after they are spread."
Tao Qian pondered: "Xuzhou is in chaos. Cao Cao naturally has the opportunity to take advantage of it. Could it be that Cao Cao sent people to spread these rumors."
Jian Yong waved his hand. Said: "No. No. Once these rumors spread. Cao Cao naturally has trouble taking advantage of it. But it also makes all parts of Xuzhou prepared. Cao Cao is good at using troops. How can you not know how to win by surprise. How can you miss the opportunity? ."
Tao Qian nodded and said, "So in Mr.'s opinion. Who did it again."
Jian Yong leaned back and said: "Please leave the main screen to the left and right. The subordinates dare to speak."
Tao Qian couldn't help but secretly alert. Could it be that the person who leaked the news was by his side. but. He still believed Jian Yong's words. Waved. Let people retreat.
Jian Yong just stepped forward. He whispered: "The subordinates got a secret report. Langya Zangba, Sun Guan. Pengcheng Ruorong has different intentions. If there is a chaos in Xuzhou, the three of them can take advantage of it. Subordinates think. The news must be spread among these three. in."
Tao Qian is a person who dislikes the poor and loves the rich. Zang Ba and Sun Guan were born in poverty. In order to deal with the Yellow Turban army. Tao Qian had to use them. There is no trust in them. and. At the beginning, Cao Song was hiding in Langya. It is also very possible for him to secretly communicate with Zang Ba and Sun Guan. As for Ruo Rong. Although it is Tao Qian's hometown. Tao Qian also entrusted him with important tasks. But Tao Qian knew that this man was greedy by nature. No one can say whether he will give birth to a strange heart.
Jian Yong saw Tao Qian hesitate. Continue to say: "For the present plan. Beware of Zangba, Sun Guan and Cao Cao. The lord can order General Xuande to go down to Langya in a close manner. Capture these two people. Please inquire about it. Then Xu Tusuorong. ."
Tao Qian was seriously ill at the time. I once wanted to give up the position of Xuzhou Mu to Liu Bei. But Liu Beijian was not affected by his resignation. How could Tao Qian think that Liu Bei was going to seek his Xuzhou now. therefore. Tao Qian believed in Liu Bei, Jian Yong and others.
After listening to Jian Yong's suggestion. Tao Qian thought for a moment. He agreed. Liu Bei was immediately ordered as special envoy. Plenipotentiary Tao Qian. Go to Langya Labor Army. By the way, look at Langya's defense. In case of a surprise attack by Cao Cao.
Liu Bei got Tao Qian's secret order. Order five thousand military horses. Leaving Xuzhou with Guan Yu. Head towards Langya.
Along the way. From time to time, we can see panicked people coming down together. These people who fled suddenly saw such an army hurried northward. It further confirmed the rumors that Cao Cao wanted to attack. Thus. Even some people who originally wanted to stay at home. Also began to fuck up.
Liu Bei saw this scene. Uneasy. The soldiers were ordered to split into the nearby countryside. Preach to the people. The so-called Cao Cao's coming offense is nothing more than a rumor spread by people with unpredictable intentions. Tell everyone to go home without worry. Farming with peace of mind.
Back then. When Liu Bei was in the army, Xiao Pei. It is true that Qiu has nothing to do with Xiaopei's people. But his great reputation only ends with Xiaopei. Go further north. How can those people be willing to believe his words. Still making a mess.
Liu Bei was helpless. They had to let the people go. And he knew it in his heart. It will take a few days. Cao Cao will definitely fight over. At that time, I am afraid that I will be cursed by thousands of people.
Zang Ba and Sun Guan had long been informed that Liu Bei was coming to work. Brought the guards. Welcome fifteen miles out of the city. Although Tao Qian didn't wait to see them. But he also appointed him two as prefects. One is the captain. He is in charge of 30,000 steps. Guard the northern gateway of Xuzhou. In Langya County, he is also a person who makes a promise.
Liu Bei rode on the horse. From a long distance, I saw a large crowd of people in front of me. Knowing that it was Zang Ba and Sun Guan, they came. Before reaching the front, he turned over and dismounted. Step forward. He folded his hands and said: "Two generals. How dare you bother to welcome you far away."
Although Zang Ba and Sun Guan were born in poverty. But somehow he also planted a few acres of thin fields. Consciously is much better than Liu Bei, a peddler weaver. therefore. Both of them couldn't look down on Liu Bei in their hearts. only. This time Liu Bei came on behalf of Tao Qian. Also has the duty of patrolling the city defense. Zang Ba and Sun Guan didn't dare to be too negligent about him. That's why we ushered so far. Hear Liu Bei speak. The two of them clung their hands together: "Master Liu is here on behalf of the lord. How dare you be disrespectful in the end."
Guan Yu's red face felt a hint of sorrow. A cold snort. How can he not see. The two men said they didn't dare to be disrespectful. But he clearly didn't pay attention to Liu Bei. Guan Yu couldn't help mentioning the hand holding the Azure Dragon Sword. But Liu Bei's hand was behind him. Secretly made a gesture of patience towards him. Guan Yu took a deep breath. Soothed his emotions. Slowly put down the Qinglong knife.
There was no trace of Liu Bei's face. Haha laughed and said: "Two generals. Liu came along a certain road. Seeing that the people are all going south in panic. Could something be wrong with Langya."
Zang Ba glanced at Sun Guan. He handed his hands over and said: "Return to the Lord. The final general is also worried about this. I don't know who is spreading rumors here recently. It is said that Cao Cao is about to commit an offense. I think that Xuzhou and Cao Cao have always come to the river well. Besides, Cao Cao's rival is Jingzhou Liu Xin from Jizhou and Yuan Shao from Jizhou. How could he commit Xuzhou to me for no reason? He will have sent someone to investigate secretly. Once he knows who is causing trouble in Zhongxing, he will be captured and dedicated to the lord."
Liu Bei nodded. Said: "So that's the case. The generals don't care about him. The two generals, please look. Those are the lord-in-chief order Liu to bring in rewards for the soldiers of the three armies. Please take the two generals personally."
Sun Guan was taken aback. He folded his hands and said, "My lord. Why should I personally order this kind of small matter. According to the previous year's rule. Just ask a few soldiers to check the accounts casually."
Zang Ba also said: "My lord. I will wait for some water and wine in the city at the end. I will catch the wind for the adults. Please move the adults. Just leave it to the people below."
Liu Bei waved his hand and said: "Liu is trusted by the lord. How can you borrow others. If the two generals are unwilling to do such trivial things. Then ask the two generals to wait a while. Send a few soldiers to accompany Liu to count together. That's it."
What he said was soft but hard. Zang Ba and Sun Guan glanced at each other. But it's not easy to violate his meaning. I had to say in unison: "The last will do what he ordered."
So Liu Bei was ahead. Zang Ba and Sun Guan followed closely behind. Walk into the ranks of the labor force together. Seeing a cart full of wine, cloth, silk, gold, silver and other things. Liu Bei deliberately took out a roll of bamboo slips. According to the list recorded on the bamboo slips, one by one, Zang Ba and Sun Guan were handed over.
Sun Guan originally insisted on Liu Bei to handle the settlement in person. There are still some doubts. Now I see that these things have been delivered. And there was no mistake. Could not help but let go. Stretched. Said: "Master Liu. Everything was right. Exactly. Now the adults can rest assured to go to the city."
Liu Bei smiled and said: "It's not busy. The lord also asked Liu to send fifty cows. One hundred sheep. Reward the three armies. Two generals. Please come here and see."
For Zang Ba and Sun Guan. Lamb is not a rare item. But beef is rarely eaten. Because this society is still in the farming economy. The cow is a very important production tool. Generally cannot be slaughtered. It is only when rewarding the three armies and offering sacrifices to ancestors. Only one or two cows will be killed. Tao Qian has always attached importance to agricultural production. In previous years, soldiers stationed in the counties will also be rewarded. But it never only leads some sheep. It was the first time to drive some cattle.
Zang Ba has been seen behind this row of big cars. Sure enough, there were soldiers chasing a herd of cattle and sheep. Could not help walking towards there. He smiled and said: "The lord really made a lot of money this time. General Sun. If you and I can't guard Langya, then you will have no face to see the lord."
Sun Guan also said as he walked: "Master Liu. Since these sheep have been delivered. The final general will not be polite to you. I will pick up a fat cow and slaughter it. Instead, I will ask Master Liu to be the chief.
His voice did not fall. Then I heard the wind in the back of my head. A voice said coldly: "Before slaughtering the cow. Wait until a certain slaughter your dog's head first."
Sun Guan is also battle-tested. Crawled out of the dead. Although Wu Yi is not top-notch. But the response was extremely rapid. Hear the wind. It feels bad. Sun Guan's heart converged. The body sprang forward. Passed by a guard. Behind yourself. Just listen to a "puff" sound. Sun Guan rolled on the spot. Has stood up. When looking back. The soldier had already been split in half. Blood splattered. Sprayed him all over. Sun Guankan looked up. There was a flash of cold light. A big knife stopped in the middle. Unstoppable.
Zang Ba walked ahead. Behind the sound. Hastily turned back. I was seeing the red-faced man following Liu Bei. Was slashing at Sun Guan. He was in a hurry. To find Liu Bei to speak. But there is no trace of Liu Bei. Fang Zhi Liu Bei lured them to come. The inventory items are fake. Taking their lives is true.
Sun Guan was already in danger over there. Two soldiers desperately blocked it. It was only after rolling and crawling to escape the knife. in fact. Take Guan Yu's martial arts. Suddenly attacked again. Sun Guan absolutely couldn't dodge him twice. It's just that Guan Yu came from behind. There are several big cars in front. And he shouted again when he started. Make Sun Guan alert. It didn't succeed. Although these two knives did not kill Sun Guan. Also killed all the three soldiers beside him. He also scratched one of Sun Guan's arm.
Guan Yu couldn't succeed with two consecutive swords. Already furious. Pat the saddle with his left hand. The whole person jumped up immediately. Jump in the air. With one hand, he waved the Qinglong knife and slashed it in the air. Just like a god. The horse under his seat ate this. Flicked twice. Actually fell to the ground. This shows how powerful Guan Yu is.
Sun Guan was already very embarrassed by hiding the two swords just now. Now it is inevitable. It just so happened that a fat sheep called "Bao" beside him. Sun Guan didn't even want to pick up the sheep. He raised his head high to meet Guan Yu's thunderous stroke.
