Chapter 32 Visiting Gongsun Zan

Cao Cao's opinion is that he agrees with Liu Bei's joining, which Liu Bian already understands.

And it can be seen that Cao Cao still admires Liu Bei and the three of them.

It's really a hero and cherishes heroes. No wonder Cao Cao still said that Liu Bei and him are the heroes of the world even though Liu Bei looked like a down-and-out vegetable gardener.

Sighing silently in his heart, Liu Bian smiled at Cao Cao:
"Meng De gave such a high evaluation to Liu Bei only for the first time in formal contact. Presumably, if this king hadn't said that sentence, Meng De would have agreed to him on the spot today."

Cao Cao bowed his hands and saluted, but did not refute, but said acquiescingly: "Your Highness has learned from you."

"Ah."

Liu Bian smiled indifferently, and continued: "Meng De has always been very accurate in judging people, but regarding Liu Bei, he can't fully see through just one person's words."

"But this person has no rebellious intentions for the time being, and it is true that he will do his best to revive the sweat room. If Meng De wants to include it in his account, there is nothing wrong with it, but..."

Liu Bian narrowed his eyes and said, "It's just that this king is still alive and is the person behind the current Sifang coalition forces. For the time being, don't talk to him."

"Except for this matter, Mengde just treats him generously. Guan and Zhang are both first-class generals, and they will definitely add a touch of color to the battle ahead."

When Cao Cao heard that Liu Bian agreed to accept Liu Bei into his account, he was overjoyed immediately and bowed to Liu Bian:
"Your Highness is truly a wise master! Thank you Cao, Your Highness, and take His Highness's words to heart!"

"Ah."

Liu Bian was not dazed by Cao Cao's flattery, but nodded lightly, and then said: "There is another thing, Meng De still has to worry about it."

"It's that Liu Bei was originally under the tent of Gongsun Zan, the prefect of Beiping. He came out to look for you this time, probably behind Gongsun Zan's back. Meng De still worried about what if Gongsun Zan held a grudge against you because of it. Originally, it was because of Sun Jian. Regarding the matter, Yuan Shu has completely turned against the current four-party coalition forces, and now Gongsun Zan is added, so we should pay attention to this hidden worry."

Cao Cao hurriedly replied: "Your Highness is very considerate, Cao must bear in mind that the matter of Yuan Shu is a foregone conclusion, as for this Liu Xuande... Otherwise, Cao will go to Gongsun Zan's tent in person, and ask him for help in the name of a borrower." How about Liu Guanzhang and the others? Now everyone's banner is to kill Dong, and the reputation of others can be regarded as Gongsun Zan's contribution. Presumably, he has no reason to refuse."

Borrower?Liu Bian blinked, this is a good idea.

And through this matter, Liu Bian thought of another matter, Gongsun Zan should have more than Liu Guanzhang under his account, right?
The heroic figure of a white horse with a silver gun flashed in his mind, and Liu Bian was a little uncertain whether Zhao Zilong was already in Gongsun Zan's army at this time.

Since Liu Bian is not sure about the time when Zhao Yun followed Gongsun Zan, he can only know that Zhao Yun was once one of Gongsun Zan's white horse followers. If you want to find Zhao Yun who has not yet become famous at this time, then you must pay attention to the white horse followers. a troop.

But this army should only be regarded as Gongsun Zan's imperial guard Qingqi now, and it is not easy to get in touch with this army and find someone from it.

But if it's for Zhao Yun...

Liu Bian didn't show any signs of expression, just smiled lightly and said:

"Meng De's words are a solution, so I will leave this matter to Meng De. However, this king also has an idea..."

……

The next day, in the tent of Gongsun Zan, the prefect of Beiping.

Gongsun Zan, dressed in brocade fur armor, sat upright, and Cao Cao sat on the lower head.

"Meng De actually found time to come to me today, what a rare visitor!"

Gongsun Zan held up his wine glass and exchanged respect with Cao Cao: "Recently, Meng De and Sun Jian's allied forces have repeatedly made military exploits in defeating Dong Daye, but everyone who watched was envious, but they didn't know that Meng De was not in the front to supervise the battle today. What do you mean by coming to me?"

Gongsun Zan looked at Cao Cao, but his gaze turned to a straight man in black robe and gold armor standing behind Cao Cao, his eyes showed curiosity.

"Hehe...Brother Bogui was joking, everything Cao did was for the sake of my country, but there was absolutely no intention of selfishness."

"As for today, Cao Mou came here for the sake of Brother Bogui, and I only hope that Brother Bogui can lend this person to Cao Mou, or let this person come to help Cao Mou, whatever you say, for this person Cao is willing to pay some price."

Cao Cao chuckled and said what he wanted.

"Oh?"

Gongsun Zan raised his eyebrows, looked at Cao Cao with interest, and said, "This is a good thing! The Meng-German coalition forces are invincible in front, and it's rare for me, Gongsun Zan, to take a share of it. I'm so happy! But I don't know, Meng De Who do you want?"

For Gongsun Zan, this matter was simply what he wished for.In today's situation, the coalition forces have repeatedly defeated Dong Zhuo's army, and most of the troops in the front are the coalition forces of the four families including Cao Cao and Sun Jian. I don't know how many people want to get on this chariot that has accumulated meritorious deeds, but they are all rejected by Cao Cao and others. So even though Gongsun Zan was thinking about it, he didn't bother to make fun of it, but he didn't expect that Cao Cao would take the initiative to come to the door today, which really surprised Gongsun Zan.

"Hehe, it's not an outsider."

Cao Cao smiled and said, "It's the county magistrate of Pingyuan, Liu Bei and Liu Xuande."

"Xuande?"

Hearing the name from Cao Cao, Gongsun Zan was taken aback for a moment. He also has many powerful generals under him. Liu Bei is not a famous person at all, but Liu Bei has a good temper and has some personal friendship with Gongsun Zan.

But Gongsun Zan never expected that Cao Cao's fanfare was only for a Pingyuan county magistrate?
What role can he play as Liu Bei?Moreover, Liu Bei had no reputation at all on the battlefield. How did Cao Cao notice him?Is it possible...

Gongsun Zan, who was still thinking about it but couldn't figure it out, finally focused on the disputes between the three Liu Bei brothers and Cao Cao in the big tent on the day Sishui Pass was broken.

This guy... Could it be that he came to seek revenge?
Gongsun Zan frowned slightly as he looked at Cao Cao's invisible smiling face. He couldn't see Cao Cao's real intention at all.

But Gongsun Zan didn't want to turn against Cao Cao at this time, and Liu Bei was not worth it.

So Gongsun Zan pondered for a moment and said:

"To be honest with Meng De, although Liu Xuande is under my account, he is not completely under my control. We are friends. He has always had the ambition to serve the country, so I brought him along with him this time. Him. If the person Mengde wants is him, then you need to ask him about this matter."

"However, I can also make an agreement with Meng De in advance. No matter whether Liu Xuande agrees to Meng De or not, I, Gongsun Zan, are willing to send another strong army to help Meng De's plan to defeat Dong on the front line!"

Gongsun Zan has a good idea. Since you can't fight against Cao Cao, then let Liu Bei decide this matter. Cao Cao came to you to harm you, or for some reason. You can judge for yourself, and I am not unjust. .
