"Lord..." Seeing Liu Bei mentioning Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Chen Gong also fell silent.
Everyone knows that since Liu Bei joined the army, Guan and Zhang have been his right-hand men, fighting in all directions with Liu Bei.
Now that he has no arms, how can Liu Bei not feel a sense of loss?
The people Liu Bei relied on were Guan and Zhang Er. Now that they are no longer around, it is normal for Liu Bei to feel confused about his future, because he has lost the person he relied on.
It's okay that there is no news about Zhang Fei, but there is news that Guan Yu actually committed himself to Cao Cao and made such a great contribution to him. How can Liu Bei not feel sad about this?
Even though Chen Gong didn't know much about Taoyuan, he knew that Guan Yu's importance in Liu Bei's heart was irreplaceable.
Being betrayed by Guan Yu, Liu Bei's heart must be bleeding!
"Gongtai, tell me, is there any hidden secret that we don't know about Yun Chang serving Cao Cao?" Liu Bei looked at Chen Gong and asked quietly.
Liu Bei really didn't believe that Guan Yu would betray him. He didn't want to believe that Guan Yu would betray him at all!
Hidden story? Chen Gong shook his head helplessly. If for some reason, Guan Yu had to temporarily stay in Cao Ying, it is indeed possible. But if this is the case, he was so desperate on the Guandu battlefield that he almost used himself
Will he sacrifice his life in exchange for Cao Cao's victory?
Guan Yu's performance on the Guandu battlefield was enough to show that he was loyal to Cao Cao wholeheartedly, Chen Gongzuo thought so.
Seeing Chen Gong shaking his head, Liu Bei's expression turned even worse.
After a long time, Liu Bei spoke again: "Gongtai, not many people in the world know about me in Mianyang City. Maybe my second brother thought I was dead, so he took refuge in Cao Cao. I want to send my message to Mianyang City."
The news was conveyed, and then a letter was written to my second brother. I think if Yun Chang learns of my whereabouts, he will definitely come to look for me."
Liu Bei knew Guan Yu, and he firmly believed that Guan Yu must have thought that he was dead, so he surrendered to Cao Cao.
"I think... it's inappropriate." Chen Gong thought for a while and then slowly said these five words.
Chen Gong knew how deeply Liu Bei felt about Guan Yu, and how eager Liu Bei was for Guan Yu to return to him. However, Chen Gong was not one of the parties involved in Taoyuan after all, and he was not sure whether Guan Yu was really what Liu Bei believed.
Saying that doesn't mean you really want to surrender to Cao Cao.
In Chen Gong's mind, he was vaguely convinced that Guan Yu was wholeheartedly serving Cao Cao.
In this troubled era, how can brotherhood be relied on? There are still dangers of being indifferent between brothers, let alone brothers who worship the boss.
The conditions for working under Cao Cao are naturally much better than working under Liu Bei. With Guan Yu's ability, it will not be a problem to get a high-level general position in the future. If people go to higher places, Guan Yu will naturally have no shortage of reasons to join Cao Cao.
This cannot be said that Chen Gong misunderstood Guan Yu because of his ignorance. It is just that Guan Yu's performance on the Guandu battlefield was too dazzling. To say that he did not sincerely sacrifice his life for Cao Cao? At least Chen Gong could not believe it.
As a sworn brother, Zhang Fei probably knew Guan Yu's temperament very well. But in another time and space, even if he was as close as Zhang Fei, he once mistakenly thought that Guan Yu had betrayed him and wanted to kill him. So what's more, Chen Gong was an outsider.
Woolen cloth.
If Guan Yu changes his mind and serves Cao Cao loyally, wouldn't Liu Bei risk his own life by telling him all about his current situation?
Chen Gong had an instinctive dislike for Cao Cao. In the past, he hated Zhang Liao, Zang Ba and others who had betrayed their master and surrendered to the enemy, and he also had a certain dislike for them. Now he also feels the same way towards Guan Yu and Chen Gong.
Disgust.
"No way?" Liu Bei was slightly stunned. Chen Gong rejected his idea, which actually made him feel a little at a loss.
Liu Bei still trusted Chen Gong's resourcefulness. Now that his top military advisor believed that Guan Yu was sincerely surrendering to Cao Cao, what should he do?
"Alas..." Chen Gong didn't expect that Guan Yu could have such a big impact on Liu Bei.
"Report——!" Just as Liu Bei and Chen Gong were talking to each other in silence, a messenger suddenly came to report, "Tell me, my lord, that the whereabouts of the three generals have been found!"
The third general...Yide!? Hearing this, Liu Bei's eyes, which were still depressed before, suddenly lit up.
——————————————————————————————Sun Jian has led his army to Wancheng for several months and is facing off from a distance with Cao Cao in Xuchang City.
It stands to reason that there is no hope of attacking Xuchang, so Sun Jian should retreat to Jiangdong at this time. However, he always had a grudge against Sun Quan's murder, and he always harbored hatred and obsession in his heart, and was unwilling to retreat.
In March of the second year of Jian'an (AD 197), Liu Biao ordered Cai Mao and Wenpin to lead heavy troops in an attempt to recapture Jiangxia from Sun Jian.
Liu Biao's action immediately scared Sun Jian into a cold sweat. If Jiangxia fell, he would be stationed in Wancheng alone.
By then, with Cao Cao in the north and Liu Biao in the south, the only way out is to perish.
Damn Liu Biao, he dared to attack my city. This debt must be settled in the future! Now Sun Jian could no longer care about Cao Cao and hurriedly led his troops south to return to Jiangxia.
After Sun Jian withdrew, Cao Cao ordered Zhang He and Guan Yu to attack and reoccupy Wancheng.
Although Wancheng is not light to Sun Jian, it is not as important as Jiangxia. If he chooses one of the two, it is normal for Sun Jian to protect Jiangxia and abandon Wancheng.
When it entered early April, at the turn of spring and summer, a group of scribes from Yingchuan decided to go boating on the Ying River and hold another larger gathering. Like the last literary gathering, Guo Jia invited Gao Shun to go with him.
, while rafting, Gao Shun took out Li Bai's "Yin on the River" and once again amazed the audience.
Mulan's Tangsha Tang boat has jade flutes and golden tubes sitting at both ends. There are thousands of dendrobiums in the wine bottles, carrying prostitutes wherever they go. Immortals are waiting to ride the yellow crane, while sea travelers have no intention of following the white gulls. Qu Ping's poems and poems hang on the sun and moon, and the King of Chu's platform
The mountains are empty. The five mountains are shaken when the pen is written in high spirits, and the poem becomes the smiling and proud Ling Cangzhou. If the fame and wealth last forever, the Han River should also flow northwest.
This literary talent, this feeling, this artistic conception, this imagination... even if everyone on the boat is a world-renowned literati and celebrities, even if they had known that Gao Shun was full of literary talent, they could not help but be deeply impressed by this poem at this time.
And Gao Shun's reputation has risen a few points.
In mid-April, Sun Jian defeated Liu Biao's army again in Jiangxia, leaving some troops to guard it before returning to Wu County.
At the end of April, Sun Jian was suddenly assassinated by several assassins on his way to the military parade. However, due to the life-saving protection of his guards and Sun Jian's own good martial arts, he was only slightly injured in the end.
After being tortured to extract confessions, one of the assassins finally couldn't bear it anymore and confessed that he was a disciple of the Lu family in Jiangdong. The Lu family was resentful because their leader Lu Kang was killed by Sun Jian, so they sent someone to assassinate him.
Sun Jian was furious and sent a thousand troops, vowing to massacre the entire Lu family.
