Chapter 74

In the General's Mansion, all the staff gathered together.

He Miao, Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Chen Lin, Bao Xin, Chun Yuqiong, Zhang Jin, Kuai Yue, Chen Lin, Wang Yun, He Yong, Pang Ji, Xun You...

"At the beginning, what do you think of His Majesty's establishment of a new army?"

"No matter how you look at it, it's both good and bad..."

In the front row, Bao Xin and Yuan Shao Zheng were whispering to each other.

In the back row, Cheng Yuanzhi huddled in the corner, hiding in the shadow behind Yuan Shu. While listening with his ears raised, he looked at everyone one by one with his eyes wide open.

The military officer talking to Yuan Shao was Bao Xin, the one on Yuan Shao’s left hand was Cao Cao, the one on Cao Cao’s left hand was Chen Lin, and the one on Chen Lin’s left hand was wearing a scarlet robe... Hey, this man’s chest muscles are so well developed. It's almost on the road's face.

Well, this is a maid, it's normal to have a little developed chest muscles.

The maid is next to Huben Zhonglang, Yuan Shu, shit, you beast, get your hands out of his clothes!

let me……

The one behind Yuan Hou is me, and the one next to me is a giant X with long legs!Let me go, this girl has such a thin waist, have you ever served her bed?
Should I ask He Jin for her and bring her home for fun...

Looking up at the maid's face, Cheng Yuanzhi became calm in an instant.

God is fair, and gave this maid a good figure, so her appearance is a little more casual.

The small fish looks better.

Cheng Yuanzhi quickly withdrew his gaze, turned his head, and acted as if nothing had happened.

He Jin strode in and sat high on the big chair in the middle hall.

He patrolled the lobby expressionlessly, his eyes fixed on Cheng Yuanzhi precisely.

"Cheng Shou, what do you think of this matter?"

Five years as a general, He Jin still hasn't evolved into a qualified old man in the officialdom. He can ask whatever is on his mind.

No foreplay at all.

Just straight forward.

Cheng Yuanzhi has long been accustomed to this, and calmly replied: "General, this is a good thing that benefits everything but does no harm."

This is the truth.

He Jin was overjoyed and stood up abruptly, his eyes shining brightly.

"Oh, tell me, there will be a reward if you agree!"

In the past few days, he was so worried about this matter that he didn't think about eating or drinking.

The purpose of His Majesty's establishment of a new army is to restrain him. Every pig knows this truth, so he knows it too.

But how to break the situation made him worry.

If a big fat pig is in front of you, He Jin can think of at least nine ways to cut it open, skin it, remove the blood, cut it into strips of the same size, and put it on the shelf...

But if it was an official wrestling, he would be blinded.

This is really not what he is good at.

Hearing this, everyone turned their attention to him.

Everyone present knew Yuan She (Cheng Yuanzhi), he was too famous, not only because he was the adopted son of Situ Yuan Kai, but also because everyone present was more or less bullied by him.

At least once, as many as two or three times.

So everyone doesn't like to talk to him, so as not to humiliate themselves and be attacked again.

Cheng Yuanzhi got up slowly, and muttered: "At this time, the situation in the capital is turbulent. The Empress Dowager Dong has four generals. Dong Zhuo is leading the army outside. Dong Chong is the Zhijinwu, Dong Zhong is the Hussar General, and Dong Min is the left. General, these three are included."

"The Duke is the General, and the Duke's brother is the Chariot General. In this way, the capital is just in balance."

"Your Majesty wants to set up a new army, and intends to take advantage of it to check and balance."

While speaking, Cheng Yuanzhi looked around the audience and said proudly:
"At this moment, the general only needs to do his best to share the worries of His Majesty."

"The key lies with the two princes, in the palace, and with His Majesty."

"As the saying goes, if you don't fight with your husband, you can't fight with him..."

Cheng Yuanzhi shook his head, finished speaking slowly, took a sip of the drink on the table.

Pretend to be a big wave of mystery.

"What... what do you mean by that?"

He Jin was at a loss when he heard this, and still didn't understand the benefits.

He just felt like he was going to be emptied.

Liu Hong recently reused Dong Zhuo, Dong Min (Dong Zhuo's younger brother), who had a close relationship with the Empress Dowager Dong, and he knew about it.

Not long after Liu Hong made him a great general, he made Empress Dowager Dong's elder brother, Dong Chong, the Jinwu Zhi, and his nephew Dong Chong, the Hussar General.

Your Majesty intends to divide powers.

Now Luoyang's military power is divided into two groups, one is he and his brother He Miao, and the other is San Dong.

The powers of the two sides intersect and check and balance each other.

It was already a balance of power, but His Majesty was about to form a new army at this moment, so he was a little panicked and asked everyone for advice.

This…

Everyone looked at He Jin with a flash of disappointment.

They all understood the benefits of Cheng Yuanzhi's words.

He Jin didn't understand, what a pity!
He Jin was a little annoyed by everyone's eyes, but soon, his eyes regained his majesty: "Cheng Shou, please try again."

Seeing that He Jin really didn't understand, Cheng Yuanzhi stopped playing tricks, "As soon as the new army came out, the general just retreated from the wind and raised his name to accumulate strength, waiting for the right time."

Cheng Yuanzhi stretched out his hand, made a fist, slowly retracted it, and then punched it out quickly.

A gust of fist wind struck, and the candle flames a few steps away were extinguished.

He said eloquently: "General, the current situation is just like this punch, taking it back is not to admit defeat, but to... punch it out more powerfully!"

hiss…

This is a metaphor for God!
He Jin finally understood the meaning of "everything benefits but no harm", even though it was a bit late.

"Good! That's what I love,"

"Rewards, there are many rewards!"

As He Jin's voice fell, a servant came out of the inner room carrying a tray of silver ingots.

Cheng Yuanzhi happily accepted it, took the plate, and was about to hand it over to Li Er.

"Wait a minute!"

Cao Cao interrupted the process with a loud voice, and asked with frowned eyebrows: "Dare to ask Cheng Shou, is this really beneficial and harmless?"

"How can it be fake?" Cheng Yuanzhi glared at him.

Cao Cao chuckled: "Otherwise, Cao Cao thinks that even if there is a lot of benefit, there is still a harm!"

"Once the new army is established, its leadership position must be above that of the general. This is a disaster!"

Cao Cao didn't make any mistakes in saying this, the general is the biggest military position, the leader of the world's troops, according to His Majesty's plan, once the new army comes out, the military system will be disrupted, and the position of its leader will also be higher than that of the general .

When the time comes, if His Majesty dies suddenly, then He Jin's situation may not be up to him.

If you want to kill or cut, you can only look at the face of the leader of the new army.

Isn't this a hazard?
"Hahaha…"

Cheng Yuanzhi looked up to the sky and laughed three times, looked at Cao Cao with disdain, handed the silver to Li Er, then bowed his hands to He Jin, turned and left.

He didn't bother to explain.

Now that Cao Cao has returned from refuge, he has neither a Marquis nor an official position, and he was severely laughed at by everyone because of his violent manipulation when he was the Prime Minister of Jinan.

It was a time of embarrassment, and now he came to provoke him, so he was not willing to accept it.

"Hahaha……"

He Jin also laughed loudly, looked at Cao Cao critically, and joked: "It's only a harm for Baili, but it's still a good game. Meng De provokes Yuan She. Could it be that the old disease has relapsed?"

It is said that in the old days, when Cao Cao was serving as the Northern Lieutenant, he was famous for finding faults. Whenever someone was famous and powerful in Luoyang, he would keep an eye on the family members of that person and investigate them closely. He also placed five-colored sticks in the army. Dedicated to all kinds of dissatisfaction.

At that time, the uncle of Liu Hong's favorite eunuch, Jian Shuo, violated the prohibition of walking at night. Cao Cao mercilessly beat Jian Shuo's uncle to death with a five-color stick.

Jian Shuo's uncle: "???"

"I'm just going for a night walk, and I'll be gone..."

Cao Cao offended too many people because of this, and was quickly dismissed. Due to his father Cao Song's relationship, he was promoted and surrendered secretly, and was transferred to Dunqiu Ling.

In the first year of Guanghe (178), not long after taking office, Cao Cao was implicated and dismissed because his cousin Song Qi was killed by the eunuch.

After that, I had nothing to do in Luoyang, so I returned to my hometown of Qiao County to live idle.

Even Xu Shao's first comment to Cao Cao was "Jun Qingping is a traitor, a hero in troubled times".

Later, Cao Cao assisted Huangpusong to pacify the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and Xu Shaocai changed his name to "a capable official who governs the world, and a traitor in troubled times".

It can be seen from this that Cao Cao was such a bastard when he was young, and his reputation for being a prick was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

He Jin's words can be regarded as uncovering his old scars.

"you?!!"

Cao Cao was so angry that his beard trembled, and he waved his hands and walked away angrily.

He was so fed up.

Today, the number of people who just came to make fun of him is in the double digits.

The first thing everyone says when they meet is "I haven't seen you in four years, what is Meng De going to do now...hahaha".

These people are laughing at him overtly and secretly for being overconfident and ignorant of current affairs.

It would be better to simply call him a "silly young man", a "idiot", and an "official alien".

How could Cao Cao not be angry?

Cao Cao walked forward, and a servant hurried in behind.

"General, news came from Ding Yuan, governor of Bingzhou, that the various ministries of the southern Xiongnu who had caused rebellion have been pacified, and the southern Huns scattered in all directions. Some of them entered the river east and joined forces with the resurgent Baibo thieves. More than [-] people ravaged the area... At this time, the bandit army is powerful and has blocked the road from Bingzhou to Luoyang!"

"Ding Yuan suggested that the prefects of Shangdang, Hanoi, and Taiyuan should jointly send troops to Hedong to wipe out the rebels!"

hiss…

Hearing this...

The faces of the people who were still in the General's Mansion turned pale.

10,000+ bandit army is in Hedong? ! !
The east river is only one river away from Luoyang, and the narrower place is less than [-] paces!
In other words, now everyone is across the river from 10,000+ thieves.

If these thieves wanted to cross the river and break into the palace, they would not even need an hour!
This is so scary...

"What?!!" He Jin's buttocks were just touching the mat when he heard the words and suddenly jumped up, his eyes widened instantly.
The eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets...

The expression on his face was full of four words - unbelievable!
It's not that I don't believe the servant's words, but I can't believe that the rebels are right under my nose!
"It's ready, order Bingzhou Inspector Ding Yuan, Shangdang Prefect Zhang Yang, and Hanoi Prefect Zhu Jun to send troops to quell the rebellion. Send troops quickly!"

He Jin was gasping for breath, his whole body was frightened, and he was about to sit back on the cushion to rest for a while, when he suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly ordered:
"Quickly! Urgently order all ministries and armies to guard the Ping and Meng crossings, and not let a thief cross the river."

"Prepare the car immediately, I want to enter the palace to face the saint!"
