Xuzhou.
Guo Pu rushed into the Jiedushi's mansion in a hurry, went straight to the place where Gao Pian was staying, grabbed the captain of Wu Jun who was guarding outside the courtyard and hurriedly said: "I have something important to see King Wu, please report it quickly!"
Seeing that it was Guo Pu, the commander of Gao Pian's personal guard knew that this outstanding Confucian scholar was in charge of intelligence in the army, so he didn't dare to be negligent, so he replied "Mr.

It was getting late and the sun was about to set. Gao Pian had just finished handling military and political affairs at this time, and was ordering a few concubines to be recruited. At the same time, he ordered tea and cakes, intending to relax. Hearing the anxious voice of the commander of the personal guards, Gao Pian felt a little impatient, and said in a blunt tone, "Come in."
After entering the room, the commander of the personal guards immediately clasped his fists and said, "Mr. Guo hurried over, saying that he has something urgent to present to His Highness."
"Guo Pu? Can he have something urgent that needs to come here at this time?" Gao Pian frowned slightly.
Now the Wu army has captured the entire territory of Xuzhou, and is deploying troops to Bianzhou and Dagonzhou. Xuzhou is also occupied by Wang Jian, and half of the Central Plains is about to fall into his hands. What tricks can you play
Could it be that Li Maozhen did something
However, the previous daily report also stated that the Guanzhong Army was still stationed in Tongguan, and there was no sign of rushing into the Central Plains. It's unlikely that Li Maozhen's soldiers and horses will arrive in Bianzhou in just two days, right
If it weren't for this kind of military situation, why can't we wait until tomorrow to talk about it
Gao Pian, who had just won a big victory, couldn't help but feel a little proud and slack, thinking to himself: "This group of Confucian scholars, everyone likes to call themselves loyal, upright and dare to advise, ministers who care about the country, and they like big things too. It's really abominable to harass me all night, leaving me with no time to rest!"
"Let's just say that the lonely king has been busy all day today, and he is very tired. He has already rested. Let him come back tomorrow!" Gao Pian said coldly.
He made up his mind that he could not continue to coddle these scholars, lest the other party's temper would grow worse-before the general situation of the world was unclear, he had to respect Confucianism seven points, now that the general situation of the Central Plains has been determined, it is time to rectify the words and deeds of these scholars, so that They know what Wang Wei is supreme.
The commander of the personal guards changed his eyes slightly when he heard the words, and before he could speak, several concubines with good looks and fresh and refined dresses had already entered the room under the leadership of King Wu's attendants. rest.
"Yes, the general will go and answer." The commander of the personal guards led the order and left.
Guo Pu waited for a while outside the gate of the courtyard, and when he saw the commander of the guards coming out, he immediately walked up the steps, as if he was about to enter the courtyard. From Guo Pu's point of view, Gao Pian must have allowed him to visit, after all, the other party had never turned him away in the past.
"Mr. Guo, please stop!"
To Guo Pu's surprise, the commander of the personal guard stood in front of him this time.
"Why are you blocking my way?" Guo Pu was puzzled.
The commander of the personal guard clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness is tired today, please come back tomorrow, sir."
"What?" Guo Pu was taken aback, "Didn't you say that I came with an emergency military situation?"
You only said something important, but you didn't say it was an urgent military situation... The commander of the personal guards twitched slightly, remembering Gao Pian's attitude just now, and wisely felt that he should not go in and disturb him, otherwise he would definitely be scolded, "said gone."
"So Your Highness won't let me in?"
"yes... ... "
"It's so unreasonable!" Guo Pu was furious, pushed away the commander of the personal guards, and strode into the courtyard.
"Mr. Guo!" The commander of the personal guards did not expect that the other party would dare to barge in. He was caught off guard for a while, and the other party had already arrived in the courtyard, and only then did he realize that the other party's cultivation base was no worse than his own. It was too late to stop him now, but he still followed, "Mr. Guo, stop quickly!"
Guo Pu didn't care about him, he didn't report when he got outside the door, he just pushed the door open.
At this time, the monks who were guarding Gao Pian's safety appeared strangely from all over the place, and in the blink of an eye, they had arrived at Guo Pu's side and surrounded him. Seeing that they all had weapons in their hands and their eyes were not friendly, it was obvious that they were ready to do something.
Pushing open the door and seeing the scene in the house, Guo Pu couldn't help being furious.
Gao Pian, who was said to be tired and rested, was sitting casually on the low bed at this time, several beauties were rubbing his shoulders and beating his legs, and there was an elegant and plump female concubine sitting beside him making tea, looking A relaxed look to enjoy.
"King Wu!" Guo Pu said in a heartbroken tone, but when he yelled out the words full of anger, he paused for a while, probably because he hadn't thought about what to say next, or the planned words were not working.
Surprised by the sound of him opening the door and shouting, Gao Pian sat up straight in an instant, and when he saw that it was Guo Pu outside, he was also furious in an instant.
Guo Pu scolded: "The world is uncertain, the people are hanging upside down, the soldiers are fighting outside, and the officials are working hard inside, the king of Wu has already started to seek pleasure?!"
"Guo Pu!" Gao Pian stood up abruptly, pointed at Guo Pu's nose and was about to start cursing, but he swallowed the words back.
Suppressing his anger, Gao Pian waved his hands, and said to the beauties beside him and the monks surrounding Guo Pu outside the door: "Go down!"
Guo Pu put a big hat on him as soon as he came up, so that he couldn't lower his face and scold the other party, otherwise the image of a benevolent, righteous and virtuous king he used to maintain would be ruined. unfavorable.
After the concubine and the guards had retreated, Gao Pian sat back down and stared at Guo Pu coldly, "I don't know if Mr. Guo has something important to do without the permission of the lonely king. Is it worth being so rude?"
If it was normal, Guo Pu would definitely have to argue with the other party for a while, but at this moment he has no such leisurely mind, because the military situation is too urgent. Wang Jiu's troops are united in one place, and there are nearly a million soldiers on both sides, and they are going to Luoyang day and night!"
Gao Pian was taken aback for a moment, and then he couldn't help laughing and said, "Li Maozhen's soldiers and horses joined forces with Li Ye's old army? Did they go out to Luoyang together day and night? Mr. Guo, what news are you getting? Senior, have you been cheated of money?"
It is not new for some folks to go to the government to scare the government and falsely report military information in order to cheat rewards.
Hearing this, Guo Pu felt that he had been greatly insulted, and said coldly: "The news is that the subordinates of the lowly rank have gone through many places and risked their lives to send it back! You might as well tell your highness that this news was just a few days ago. Now King Qi and King An The old army may have already fought Wang Jian!"
Gao Pian fell silent.
After a long time, he raised his head, still feeling unrealistic, "Is this really the case? How could King An's former department unite with Li Maozhen? It's impossible..."
"How could it be impossible? King Wu and King Shu intend to annex the Central Plains. In order to keep their own city, King An's old troops united with the excluded King Qi, which is a matter of course!"
"Then it's impossible for them to take the initiative to attack, and go to Luoyang, right? They are still lying around day and night... so meticulous in their actions?"
Guo Pu snorted coldly, "If we hadn't acted meticulously, how could we not have noticed before? This is exactly what I want to remind King Wu to pay attention to, and it's what I want to discuss with King Wu!"
In the face of big right and wrong, Gao Pian didn't care about it anymore, "Where is the person who sent the news now?"
"When he sent back the news, he was so tired that he passed out... But King Wu can rest assured that the humble job has already sent out all the masters under his command to inquire about the situation in various towns. Before tomorrow morning, there must be accurate news Send back!"
"Okay! Mister is really wise!"
"The king of Wu should also send real masters to go everywhere to meet him!"
"Mister said... come here!"
...
On the next day, just after dawn, the meeting hall of Xuzhou Jiedushi's mansion was full of people, and people came in one after another.
In the corridor outside the hall, Guo Pu and Zhang Zhongsheng were standing together, receiving and exchanging the latest information that was constantly sent back. This information was obtained by many masters in the real world in exchange for their lives, and it was bloody and shocking.
As more and more news gathered, the faces of the two became more and more ugly.
"Before discussing the matter, you must first report the matter to King Wu!"
"As it should be!"
Soon, Gao Pian got reports from Guo Pu and Zhang Zhongsheng.
"What?! The Shu army was defeated? Wang Jian has withdrawn to the territory of Dengzhou?!" Gao Pian was eating breakfast, when he heard this, he was startled, and the bowl and chopsticks fell to the ground and broke.
"It's true!" Guo Pu's face was terrified.
"This... the lonely king didn't receive any news! That guy Wang Jian didn't send anyone to inform the lonely king? He has hundreds of thousands of troops, how could he be defeated so quickly! Li Maozhen's soldiers and horses are like this! Brave and brave? This is impossible!" Gao Pian lost his mind for a moment, appearing quite flustered.
Zhang Zhongsheng said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, Li Maozhen has military supporters, and the army is strong, but he was able to defeat Wang Jian so quickly, and he must have the full support of King An's old department... Although I don't know what Li Maozhen used. method, but there are indications that he is now able to freely mobilize King An's old troops!"
Gao Pian sat down on the round stool all of a sudden, his eyes were absent-minded for a while, and then he became angry immediately, and slammed his fists on the table, "Bastard! Li Maozhen, a birdie, can make things happen. It's really... There is no hero in time. Shu Zi shows off his abilities!"
Guo Pu and Zhang Zhongsheng looked at each other, feeling a little more at ease. Just now, Gao Pian beat the table angrily, but he didn't smash the table. He obviously controlled his strength, which shows that the opponent has regained his sense and calmness.
"The monks have found out that the Guanzhong Army and the Lu Army's fine cavalry are rushing from Xuzhou to Xuzhou, and there are also signs of a large number of concealed transfers of troops in the direction of Gunzhou. Obviously, after Li Maozhen solved Wang Jian, he will use the method to deal with the Shu army , give us an unexpected blow!"
Guo Pu solemnly said, "The situation is critical, fierce battles are inevitable, Your Highness, please make plans early. Fortunately, we have detected the opponent's intentions in time, so we won't be like the Shu army, who were killed by the enemy before realizing that the situation was wrong, and we didn't even have time to respond." nothing."
Gao Pian nodded: "What the gentleman said is that the nearest Pinglu Army cavalry is still a few days away. As long as we arrange it properly, there is no need to panic. If we can use the plan, it will be enough to turn the situation around!"
Speaking of this, he got up and left his seat, came to Guo Pu, and saluted solemnly: "This time, thanks to Mr. and Confucianism, the lonely king was able to avoid the catastrophe. It was the lonely king who was slack before, please forgive me."
Guo Pu felt very relieved, with a smile on his face, he quickly returned the gift, "This is a humble job. As long as the King of Wu can accomplish great things, save the difficult times, and benefit the common people, I, the Confucian scholars, are willing to be ashamed."
