Comrade Tao Qian died and drove the crane west.

Liu Bei, who was in Xiaopei, saw Lu Zhu and others who came to welcome him to Xuzhou to take office, and clearly expressed his opinion: don't do it.

And in the romance, Old Man Luo said that the plot of Tao Qian letting Xuzhou was very disgusting, one desperately wanted to give, the other resolutely refused to accept, and in the end, the entire people of Xuzhou had to force Liu Bei to reluctantly accept it.

At this time, Ma Chao finally raised a little interest, and after looking at the sand table simulation diagram, he thought silently again.

Liu Bei led the Xuzhou pastor, which is very similar to the situation of Lu Bu leading the Yanzhou pastor, both of which are windfalls from the sky. It's just that Lu Bu and Liu Bei have different attitudes towards this money: Lu Bu may have vaguely guessed that the windfall in Yanzhou was deliberately smashed by Ma Chao to himself, and he may have scolded two foul words in his heart, and then found "Huh? It's a fortune! ”。 So, he should have happily picked it up and held it in his arms later.

But Liu Bei was smashed by a windfall, and he also scolded two foul words, and then found out that it was Hengcai who smashed himself, and he must have been happy immediately, but he didn't dare to pick it up. I had to go around the horizontal consortium on the ground, and at the same time told the people around me that I was immoral, incompetent, and shouldn't ask for this wealth or something.

Think about it, that windfall, but Cao Cao was beaten half to death, sacrificed his father and slaughtered the people to lose his reputation, and lost the fat meat that Yanzhou wanted to bite into. Liu Bei said that it was impossible not to be moved.

Generally speaking, when encountering a big pie falling from the sky, most of the time it is for show, a small part is for another reason, and there is both.

In Ma Chao's opinion, Liu Bei should be both, and he not only resigned politely, but also did not dare to accept it rashly.

From an internal point of view, within Xuzhou, there is a struggle between the civil and commercial clans and the military generals - that is, the faction represented by Mi Zhu, Chen Deng and others, and the faction of Cao Bao - but in view of the fact that neither of the two factions is convinced, and no one dares to stand up to Cao Cao's injured predator. Therefore, after Tao Qian's death, someone has to come out to take the lead.

It just so happened that Liu Bei's Liu royal family is now famous in Xuzhou, and the people's hearts are obedient. Therefore, maybe the two factions compromised, or maybe they were like Tao Qian, and they wanted Liu Bei to be the scapegoat. As a result, there was a situation in which Xuzhou civil and military clubs raised their hands to agree with Liu Bei as the pastor of Xuzhou.

When this situation is in this situation, Liu Bei is very clear: he is an outsider alone, even if he is a pastor in Xuzhou, it is difficult to deal with these two factions.

And from the outside, Liu Bei also understands the truth that the husband is not guilty and is guilty. In the era of the world, he inherited such a large inheritance from Tao Qian as an outsider, and there were many people with red eyes. Today's Xuzhou not only angered Cao Cao, but also had a neighbor with ill intentions - Yuan Shu. Compared with the two of them, Liu Bei's strength is still far behind. There is power in the barrel of a gun, there is no barrel of a gun, just a seal handle, and it is not a top matter.

Therefore, it is reasonable for Liu Bei to push back and block, or even simply say 'don't do it'.

But later, Liu Bei still became a pastor in Xuzhou after all. At this point, Ma Chao saw the opportunity for himself to make an article.

As a result, Ma Chao's eyes left the sand table simulation map, and he asked Duanmu Ruoyu again: "Then how did Liu Bei become a pastor of Xuzhou later?" ”

As soon as Liu Bei said no, Xuzhou's civil and military reactions were very intense. So, within seven days, Xuzhou civil and military took turns to start persuading Liu Bei. Duanmu Ruoyu flipped through the information and returned.

And when Ma Chao heard this, he smiled slightly. Thinking of the dumbfounded scene of the group of civil and military people in Xuzhou, Ma Chao also felt that they were very uncomfortable: Xuzhou is fat, but it is also a crater that may erupt at any time. At this time, there is chaos and darkness inside and outside, chaotic into a pot of porridge, except for the will of the old leader Tao Qian, there is really no other candidate, you Liu Bei said that he is not qualified, so who is qualified? Count and count and it's you.

"Just persuasion?" Ma Chao's smile became more and more sinister, he turned around, hugged Diao Chan again, and said: "Liu Bei is not a person who will be shaken casually, unless someone can say the bottom of his heart, otherwise, he can't just sit in the crater and wait for the volcanic eruption to burn his chrysanthemum." ”

For the matter of popping chrysanthemums, Duanmu Ruoyu and Diao Chan both understood their meanings, and the two couldn't help but blush after hearing it, and Diao Chan even made a gesture to beat Ma Chao, but Duanmu Ruoyu laughed coquettishly at this time, covered his mouth and said: "The lord said very much, there is indeed a person who said Liu Bei's heart, so that Liu Bei risked being exploded chrysanthemum and sat in the position of Xuzhou Mu." ”

"That person is Chen Deng, a person from Xiapi, who goes to the food to watch the guests, and talks to see the object. To deal with Liu Bei, it is from the perspective of making meritorious contributions to tempt Liu Bei and do what he likes. Duanmu Ruoyu glanced at the information again, and after remembering everything in his heart, he replied: "Chen Dengyan, now that the Han Dynasty is in decline and the world is in chaos, if you want to establish a meritorious career, you are catching up with the great opportunity. Our Xuzhou is very rich, with a population of millions, Liu Yuanjun, you can barely become this Xuzhou pastor. ”

"Well, Chen Dengzhicai, I have heard about it a long time ago, if it weren't for Chen Deng's great career in the Xiapi family, I would have tied him up to Chang'an a long time ago." When Ma Chao heard Chen Deng's name, he couldn't help but sigh: There are too many cattle in history, and none of them are what he, a hussar general, asks for.

"Chen Deng's implication is to tell Liu Bei that after he becomes the pastor of Xuzhou, he will be able to show his skills and do a great career." Thinking back to business, Ma Chao didn't say much in view of the fact that the history he knew was not the same as at this time, but just quietly listened and analyzed: "Then how did Liu Bei reply?" ”

"Liu Bei's reply is very strange, he actually said that after Yuan Shu was the fourth and fifth dukes, his reputation was quite high, and his power was restored, and he wanted Yuan Shu to lead Xuzhou Mu."

"Liu Bei wants to welcome or refuse, and after seeing that Chen Deng is a smart person, he can be regarded as frankly expressing his worries in his heart." Ma Chao did the judging after the fact, and helped Duanmu Ruoyu analyze these words: "Liu Bei means that if he becomes a pastor in Xuzhou, Yuan Shu will be very angry, and the consequences will be very serious." He was asking Chen Deng, what should Yuan Shu do if he comes over to beat me? ”

"I see, no wonder Chen Deng said those words later." After Duanmu Ruoyu heard this, he nodded and said: "Chen Deng first rejected the proposal to let Yuan Shu be the pastor of Xuzhou, saying that Yuan Shu was arrogant and not a person who could achieve great things. This was followed by the words of Ji Yue's encouragement, pointing out that Liu Bei's worries were completely unnecessary. It is said that Xuzhou wants money and money, and if there are people, it can recruit 100,000 troops, so that from a large aspect, it can support the Han court, save the people from fire and water, and establish the merits of the Spring and Autumn Five Hegemons; In a small aspect, it is enough to cut off the dominance, defend the territory, and leave a well-known name in the history, are you still afraid that he will not succeed? ”

Hearing this, Ma Chao began to regret that he did not do his best to kidnap Chen Deng to Chang'an: not because Chen Deng's mouth is good-mouthed, but because Chen Deng's ideological courage has stepped out of the category of a qualified strategist and entered the realm of a 'national warrior'. Those words, if it were not for a person with unique vision and profound insight, would never have been able to say it.

In the end, Chen Deng didn't care whether Liu Bei agreed or not. After getting up, he emphasized to Liu Bei that there was no room for negotiation in this matter, and Liu Yuanjun had to agree if you didn't agree. Seeing Ma Chao's slightly regretful look, Duanmu Ruoyu finally broke out this fierce news again.

"What a Chen Deng, really extraordinary!" After Ma Chao knew what Chen Deng did in the end, he couldn't help but praise: "To deal with hypocritical people, you have to use such extraordinary means!" ”
