Chapter 105 Captain Dongyi(1/2)
Zhuge Liang followed Liu Chuang like a small tail.
This time, Bu Zhi Lu Dai and Huang Shao did not follow him. Apart from Xu Chu, Liu Chuang only brought Zhuge Liang alone.
He also hopes to take this opportunity to let Zhuge Liang experience life in the army.
When Zhuge Liang heard Liu Chuang’s inquiry, he was stunned.
He thought about it and said softly: "Brother Meng Yan has made a decision, why bother asking me?"
Liu Chuang smiled slightly and turned around.
Yes, he already made a decision.
It’s a bastard who doesn’t take advantage of it! Since someone has brought Chunyu to his eyes, if he doesn’t take it down, he will be really stupid.
"Since that's the case, then I will order people to settle in Chunyu."
Chunyu is a small county with a small population and a rampant bandit crisis.
But for Liu Chuang, his occupation of Chunyu was equivalent to defending the throats of Wenshui and Weishui. However, to occupy Chunyu, a strong army must be stationed. Xu Chu was the bravest army and was trustworthy, but he was not a person who could stand alone.
Historically, Xu Chu commanded the Tiger Guards, but he was always Cao Cao's personal army.
Moreover, he was sometimes a little irritable, so Liu Chuang didn't dare to send him to lead the troops alone. If Xu Chu was not successful, who could be in charge of Chunyu?
"Why bother Brother Meng Yan? In fact, there is an extremely suitable candidate around you."
"who?"
"It's the same clan of Brother Meng Yan, Liu Zheng and Liu Zihe."
Liu Zheng?
Liu Chuang was stunned for a moment and looked at Zhuge Liang in surprise.
"Didn't my brother discover why Liu Zheng hasn't returned yet, but stayed in Gaomi?"
"You mean..."
Liu Chuang suddenly shut his mouth and understood what Zhuge Liang meant.
That’s right. Liu Zheng is determined to serve him!
Actually, if you think about it carefully, Liu Zheng cannot understand this idea.
He is a royal family, but not authentic, so there will not be too many opportunities. The princes may not dare to use him. Whether it is Yuan Shao or Cao Cao, they will be concerned about Liu Zheng's background; and the royal family cannot reuse him because the Liu clan is too large and there are countless royal relatives. You arranged Liu Zheng today. Should you arrange others in the future? Therefore, it is sometimes more difficult for the royal family to make a name for themselves than ordinary people. The emperor needs to consider all aspects. In addition to having a good man, you must also have sufficient abilities.
But can you succeed if you have the ability?
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, countless Han clans personally held high positions, but in the end, only Liu Bei was the only one who established Shu Han.
This requires opportunity, luck...
I think Liu Zheng is very clear about this. He is a concubine of the King of Beihai. It is impossible to get the opportunity. Liu Chuang's accidental appearance made Liu Zheng see the opportunity. Therefore, he took the initiative to stay and ran to get closer to Liu Chuang from time to time, hoping to gain Liu Chuang's recognition. Before that, Liu Chuang did not pay attention to these things. But Zhuge Liang mentioned it, but he was thinking.
"Brother Meng Yan, Liu Zihe is from Beihai, and is also a descendant of Beihai.
He took over Chunyu and was stronger than any of his brother's men. I believe that the clan tyrants in Beihai will not reject such a person. Similarly, if the brother reused this person, he might have unexpected surprises and would be supported by the people of Beihai."
Liu Chuang nodded slightly and agreed with Zhuge Liang's words.
"Liu Zihe, can you be willing to come?"
"Hehe, if he doesn't want to, why should he stay in Gaomi?"
"Well, Kong Ming's words are not wrong."
After thinking twice, Liu Chuang finally decided to reuse Liu Zheng.
He didn't know how capable Liu Zheng was, but in fact, Liu Zheng had also made an appearance in the Three Kingdoms.
In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Zheng is extraordinary.
Later, when Beihai Kingdom was in turmoil, he and Bing Yuan went to Liaodong, but were afraid of Gongsun Du from Liaodong, and later he had no choice but to return to the Central Plains.
However, Liu Zheng and Bing Yuan's fate are different.
After returning to the Central Plains from Liaodong, Bing Yuan was conquered by Cao Cao and was valued.
But Liu Zheng was suppressed by Cao Cao because of his identity as a relative of the Han Dynasty. In the Three Kingdoms, Liu Zheng returned to the Central Plains and there was no record of him again.
In fact, in the Three Kingdoms, there are many people like Liu Zheng who only leave only ten numbers of records.
Naturally, it is impossible for Liu Chuang to write down one by one, but under the current situation, appointing Liu Zheng seems to be the most appropriate choice.

Peng Qi dispatched troops and generals, and from Duchang, Yingling, Zhuxu, Hepingshou and other places, nearly 10,000 troops were dispatched to the foot of Fuzong Mountain on the north bank of the Wenshui River.
But just as he was dispatching troops, he suddenly received news.
Liu Chuang's general Xu Sheng, with the Jiaodong native Wu'anguo as the vanguard, led his troops to send troops from the east bank of Jiaoshui and headed straight to Jimo County.
The Jiaodong area is too vast and almost deviates from a corner. In addition, Liu Chuang ordered Shi Huan to deploy defenses along the coast of Jiaoshui, completely cutting off the connection between Jiaodong and Beihai Kingdom. Therefore, neither Jimo nor Ju County could get news. When Jimo County found that Xu Sheng was at the city, it was too late to resist. Xu Sheng ordered Wu Anguo to take his men to pretend to be a merchant and sneak into Jimo first.
Wu'anguo is from Jiaodong County, and Jiaodong's accent is no different from Jimo's accent.
So the Jimo defenders did not guard against them at all and put Wu Anguo and others in the city... That night, Wu Anguo led his troops to attack suddenly, and Xu Sheng outside the city led his troops to raid. There was almost no trouble, so he seized Jimo County and killed Jimo County Magistrate in the chaos.
Jimo was broken, which immediately alarmed Jiaodong County.
On the one hand, the Gongshalu family sent people to Ju County to inform Gongshalu, but on the other hand, they led their troops to resist.
Outside Jiaodong City, Xu Sheng and the Jiaodong soldiers fought a fierce battle.
In Jiaodong, he borrowed 3,000 servants from the Gongsha family to participate in the war.
Although Xu Sheng had insufficient troops, he was not afraid at all.
Outside Jiaodong County, Xu Sheng led 300 people to forcibly advance, and entered the central army and killed the magistrate of Jiaodong County.
The soldiers and horses in Jiaodong were immediately in chaos. The servants of the Gongsha family were even more unintentional to fight and fled in scattered areas. Xu Sheng immediately conquered Jiaodong and surrounded the Gongsha family's fortress.
When Gongshalu heard the news, he was shocked.
He hurriedly begged Peng Yu for troops to rush to help Jiaodong County.
However, on the banks of the Weishui River, it was intercepted by Shi Huan's troops, and three thousand reinforcements were defeated.
After learning that Gongshalu was defeated, Peng Yu immediately withdrew his troops and retreated from Fu Zongshan to set up camp for a hundred miles.
On the one hand, he continued to send more troops to Fuzengshan, and on the other hand, he reported to Xu Du, wanting to seek Cao Cao's support.
But who would have thought...
"Wancheng is defeated, Wancheng is defeated!"
Liu Chuang has returned to Gaomi and is discussing the next action plan with Bu Zhi and others.
He sent someone to invite Liu Zheng to station Chunyu, and immediately received a response from Liu Zheng, and rushed to Chunyu to station the next day...
Chunyu Jun and others were also very welcome to Liu Zheng's arrival, and there was no slight resistance.
You should know that although Chunyu Jun handed Chunyu over to Liu Chuang, it was a last resort. In his heart, Chunyu Jun certainly did not want Liu Chuang to take over. After all, this person was wrong and his words were not right. But Liu Zheng was different! He was originally from Beihai and a relative of the royal family. Chunyu County Magistrate abandoned the city and left, and Liu Zheng took over Chunyu, which was natural. As for Chunyu people, he would not object.
Liu Chuang left a thousand soldiers and horses for Liu Zheng, and then took Xu Chu back to Gaomi.
Unexpectedly, before he could sit firmly, he got the news: Cao Cao was defeated in Wancheng!
"How is this possible!"
Bu Zhi felt a little incredible and asked quickly.
In his opinion, although Zhang Xiu was brave and good at fighting, Cao Cao was not an ordinary person.
Whether in terms of ability or military strength, Zhang Xiu cannot be Cao Cao's opponent. How could Cao Cao be defeated by Zhang Xiu?
"After Cao's army entered Nanyang, Zhang Xiu raised the city and surrendered.
However, Cao Cao later bribed Zhang Xiu's aunt... in Wancheng and tried to assassinate Zhang Xiu, so that Zhang Xiu could find out.
Zhang Xiu led his troops to attack, but Cao Cao was caught off guard and his entire army was defeated.
According to news from Nanyang, Cao Cao suffered heavy losses in this battle. Not only did he lose his beloved general Dian Wei, but he also lost his eldest son Cao Ang and his nephew Cao Anmin, and he was in a very embarrassing situation."
After listening to the report, Bu Zhi and others couldn't help looking at each other.
Speaking of this, Cao Cao was destroyed in the hands of a woman?
Liu Chuang listened quietly, but felt a series of feelings in his heart: Just as Yi Zhongtian, the forum of the Hundred Schools of the Later Age, Cao Cao's little tail was raised, so he was defeated so badly. Resentment, pride, lust... made Cao Cao lose his original wisdom.
"Young Master, Cao Cao's failure is probably a serious injury to his vitality."
Liu Chuang smiled slightly when he heard this, "It is not necessary to be seriously injured in vitality. If you win, you will not be arrogant, and you will not be discouraged from defeat. Cao Cao's second rule can be achieved. Moreover, he has the troops of the two states, and his subordinates include Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Li Dian, Yu Jin, and Le Jin. It is impossible to hurt vitality. Not to mention, Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Cheng Yu and Xun You, all of them are talented, and it is even more impossible to allow Cao Cao to fail too miserably.
If my guess is good, Cao Cao will take action soon.
He could not be silent for too long, otherwise, he would not be Cao Cao and Mengde..."
Bu Zhi and Lu Dai showed hesitation.
Liu Chuangze stood up, pondered for a long time, and suddenly said, "You said, Cao Cao, will we start the surgery next?"
"this……"
To be continued...
