Chapter 59 From Yanzhou Jiangdong to Quanling
Cao Ren was very unhappy because when he led his troops to Quanling, he realized that Liu Bei had already run away. Although he had to say "admiration" about Liu Bei's ability to escape, the Liangzhou army seems to have not arrived in Quanling yet, but you, Liu Xuande, ran too fast.
Originally, Cao Ren had been holding his breath since he entered Lingling. After all, Liu Bei had nothing to say. Although he also said that the Yanzhou Army and Jiangdong Army might be coming later, he did not instruct the garrisons of Lingling how to entertain Cao Ren and the others. So after Cao Ren and Guo Huai led the Yanzhou Army to Lingling, the county town they lived in, although the Han army generals did not treat them as enemies, they really didn't treat them as friends.
After all, everyone in the Han army knew that their lord and Cao Cao were now considered allies, but to speak, they were enemies. Now that Ma Chao has no choice, they are just temporary alliances. If Ma Chao is done here in the future, he will have to fight with the Yanzhou army.
-----------------------------------------------------
And the most important thing is not only that his lord and Cao Mengde have a good time, but also because his lord is a relative of the Han Dynasty and the uncle of the Han Dynasty. What about Cao Mengde? Who is he? He is such a Cao thief who stole the Han Dynasty.
I have to admit that Liu Bei did a good job in promoting his own side, which made most of his soldiers think it was like this.
As a result, without the clear instructions of his lord, Cao Ren and others were despised by the Han army from generals to soldiers. As the commander of the Yanzhou army, Cao Ren could not say anything, it would be too much. Speaking of which, he was considered to be a representative of his lord. It should be a personal conversation with Liu Xuande, but in several counties, he was despised by their people. What is this?
But Cao Ren also knew that he had a bad attack, so he could only take Guo Huai away in the end and headed straight to Quanling. He originally thought it was very good, but when he saw Liu Bei, he wanted to talk to him. There were several generals under his command. It was too unreasonable, which was really unpleasant.
-----------------------------------------------------
But what Cao Ren thought was still not realized, because after he arrived at Quanling, he finally realized that Liu Bei had already left Lingling and went to Jiangling. Cao Ren had no choice but to do this, so he could not go to Jiangling directly.
Although in Quanling, Cao Ren and Guo Huai, including Niu Jin, were welcomed by everyone led by Xu Shu, and they also held a banquet to welcome them. However, Cao Ren was still unhappy. It was not Xu Shu and the others who were unhappy. After all, the face was mutual. Xu Shu and the others could give Cao Ren and the other two faces like this. Of course, they could not give everyone face. However, Cao Ren was deeply disdainful of Liu Bei's escape.
But in front of Xu Shu and others, what else can Cao Ren say, can he say something? In front of others, he will talk about his lord's right? Isn't that kidding? Cao Ren still wants to stay in Quanling for the time being. Then Xu Shu is definitely not Yiyou. Cao Ren still has this eye, and he has not heard of Xu Shu's reputation before, especially Xu Shu is from Yingchuan. Even if he was in Yingchuan back then, he was not an unknown person. Cao Ren had heard of it a lot.
-----------------------------------------------------
"Come on, I respect General Cao, General Guo and General Niu!"
Under the affection of Xu Shu and others, Cao Ren was really out of temper. The main reason was that he had to bear it. Moreover, he had plotted against all three of them, and they would do it first. Therefore, Cao Ren couldn't say anything, so he had to say with a slight smile: "Okay! I did it too!"
At the same time, Guo Huai and Niu Jin were also like Cao Ren. It was not unclear to them that Xu Shu’s status in Liu Bei was much stronger than his status in his lord. Although his lord was considered to be using his lord, he was still a little different after all.
Then, the meal was filled with guests and guests, of course, this was the case on the surface. It was impossible for Cao Ren and the other three to give Xu Shu and the others face. After all, they were so enthusiastic that you couldn't even pick anything. So Cao Ren wanted to say something, but didn't say it because he couldn't.
-----------------------------------------------------
However, after the banquet was removed, Cao Ren was taken down by the soldiers to rest. He felt much dissatisfied. Although Xu Shu and others gave him face so much, Liu Bei's big ears didn't give him any face at all.
There is no need to say more about Cao Ren's thoughts. Anyway, he is more dissatisfied, but he cannot show much in front of Xu Shu and the others. Therefore, he can only keep it in his heart. What is different from him is the combination of Lu Su and Zhang Liao. They naturally took a detour to Lingling from Wuling, and after Cao Ren, they also arrived at Quanling.
However, the treatment of the Jiangdong Army was not comparable to that of the Yanzhou Army. At least the soldiers of the Han army did not despise the Jiangdong Army. Instead, they were still warmly entertained them, so just for such a little bit was not comparable to that of the Yanzhou Army led by Cao Ren.
At least the soldiers of the Han army knew very well that their lord and Cao Mengde were considered great enemies and would never stop until death, but they didn't seem to have much celebration with Sun Bofu of Jiangdong and Jiangdong Army. On the contrary, the two armies were allies, and the relationship was OK, not bad, at least not comparable to that of the Yanzhou Army.
-----------------------------------------------------
Therefore, Lu Su and Zhang Liao and others passed through several counties, but the soldiers of the Han army were very good to entertain them. At least they were reinforcements and came to help their own side, so they were not only enthusiastic, but also respected them. This made Lu Su, Zhang Liao, and the soldiers of the Jiangdong Army very happy. After all, who doesn’t want others to pay attention to? How many hopes are for people to be hostile, despised, or despised?
So Lu Su and Zhang Liao were of course very satisfied with the hospitality along the way. And for them, after all, we are also giving you Liu Xuande's help, so it is really not an exaggeration to treat people like you well.
But they didn't know what Cao Ren and the others had before, otherwise Lu Su and Zhang Liao would definitely think that they were lucky, and Cao Ren and the others would naturally be unfortunate.
Who made Cao Ren and the others the Yanzhou Army? And Lu Su and the others were not. If you want to blame, you can only say that it was his own component problem. Cao Ren also understood this.
-----------------------------------------------------
But he didn't know what Lu Su and the others were treated, otherwise he would definitely shout, which would be too unfair.
But even if he knew, what else could he do? He couldn't change anything at all. Lu Su and Zhang Liao passed through two counties under such treatment and finally arrived in Quanling.
Xu Shu and the others had known that Lu Su had come, so he treated him the same as Cao Ren, and he personally took everyone out of the city to welcome him. At least when Cao Ren and the others came, it was the same. Who is Xu Shu? How could he be like those generals guarding the city to favor one and the other?
Speaking of which, as a top strategist, he knew best what it means to have no eternal enemies, no eternal friends, only eternal interests. It is true that the festival between one side and the Yanzhou army was very deep, and even surpassed the Liangzhou army. He had a good relationship with the Jiangdong army, at least not so many festivals.
But in the final analysis, they are needed now, so it is indeed difficult to offend them.
-----------------------------------------------------
So of course Xu Shu couldn't offend Cao Ren, and he couldn't let Cao Ren and others choose anything. In that case, he would be ashamed of his lord and let him stay in Quanling.
As for the Jiangdong Army today, let alone. But it was not just Xu Shu who brought everyone here, but Cao Ren was the same, following Xu Shu to welcome Lu Su and Zhang Liao.
He didn't do anything else, just to meet Lu Su. Zhang Liao was considered an old opponent, and it didn't need to be said to deal with him for many years. But Lu Su, Cao Ren and others had never seen him before, so he was a little curious, so he went to greet them with Xu Shu.
After meeting each other, Lu Su saw that Xu Shu and the others were in such a big battle, and he was not so clear about what was going on. As a result, he was the first to speak first, and quickly said: "Lu Su, Jiangdong Army, have seen you all!"
After all, not everyone knows him. There are only two people who can call him a name, so Lu Su didn't say much.
Zhang Liao also spoke, but he did not claim to be from the Jiangdong Army. He just said, "Zhang Liao, Yanmen, I have met you!" (To be continued, please search for astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
