On the east bank of Xiangshui, Guan Yuying.
"General, 400 grain trucks were burned clean by my fire, and there was no grain left for the rebels."
Liao Hua, who returned triumphantly, could not hide the excitement and pride of returning from a great victory. It seemed that this victory of looting grain also made him have a bad spirit in his heart for the death of Major General Guan Pingzhi.
"Thank you for your hard work. You fought a good battle."
Guan Yu stroked his bee and smiled slightly and actually praised Liao Hua.
You should know that Guan Yu has always despised the world. Even if the famous generals in the world can enter his Dharma eye, there are only a few people. Although Liao Hua and others have followed him for more than ten years, they have been praised by him several times in their lives. Guan Yu's praise immediately made Liao Hua feel extremely flattered.
"General Liao really fought well in this battle, but it's a pity that these grains and fodder were burned. It would be better if they could be robbed back and used by the general." The horse beside him was idle, as if they were already his own family.
Guan Yu sneered: "I have countless grains in Jiangxia, and I will not care about his hundreds of trucks of food and fodder. I just want to burn him clean with a fire. If not, how can I deter the rebels and a group of traitors?
"Hehe, the general's words are reasonable." Ma Yu followed Guan Yu's attachment path.
Guan Yu breathed a sigh of relief and was in a very good mood. After this battle, he was convinced of Ma Yu's surrender, so he said, "Ma Yu, I really didn't misread you. Very good. I will show your achievements to General Zuo. General Zuo will definitely not treat you badly."
Originally, it was Ma Yu's desire to be trusted by Guan Yu, but at this time, Ma Yu's expression suddenly became awe-inspiring. He got up and walked to Guan Yu, fell on one knee, and said with shame: "The general is really grateful for such trust in him. It's just that he still has a concealment from the general. Please forgive him.
Ma Yu's sudden unexpected behavior surprised everyone present, and even a trace of confusion flashed in Guan Yu's eyes.
Guan Yu paused for a moment and raised his hand slightly: "Get up first. What else is there to hide? Just say it."
Although Ma Qian stood up, he bowed his head and did not dare to face Guan Yu. He said silently, "To tell you the truth, general, in fact, this scheme of robbing grain was also planned by Liu Feng in advance."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone changed their color.
"What did you say?" Guan Yu frowned slightly, and his face became heavier and heavier.
"Previously, I surrendered to the general in order to get out of Liu Feng's control, so I pretended to give him a fraudulent surrender plan and wanted to pretend to do it to get out of trouble. But Liu Feng was afraid of being seen through by the general, so he designed to fakely stab me in front of the gate to deceive the general's trust.
Ma Zhen's words not only surprised everyone, but also confused. If he is a real fraud and has now achieved his goal, why do he need to do so much? But if it is a fraudulent surrender, saying these words is equivalent to seeking a dead end, which is difficult for a normal person to understand.
Guan Yu was not angry because of this. He was interested at this moment and wanted to hear what he could say.
"Liu Feng thought he was smart, but he didn't expect that his trick was to lift a stone and hit his foot, which was recognized by General Guan at a glance. It's just that Liu Ba was very smart. He guessed that the general was not so easy to deceive, so he sacrificed hundreds of cars of grain as a backup plan. If General Guan didn't believe it, he asked me to offer a plan to rob the grain. Liu Ba said that with this double series of tricks, General Guan would definitely believe in me.
The truth came out, and the blue veins on Guan Yu's face were slightly **. The reason was nothing more than that Liu Feng and Liu Ba were so insidious and cunning. Under the trick, he was really fooled by them.
The annoyed Guan Yu looked at Ma Yan coldly and said in a low voice, "Since all this is the conspiracy of the rebels, what do you mean by these words?"
Ma Yu sneered: "Although the two Liu's plan was cunning, it was a pity that they never expected that I, who first proposed the fraudulent surrender plan, actually really wanted to surrender to the general. In fact, I could have hidden these words in my stomach and never said them for the rest of my life, but if the general trusts me so much, if I don't tell the truth, my conscience will be really difficult.
"Why didn't you tell these words truthfully at that time, but you had to hide them until this time?" Guan Yu was still angry.
Ma Jian sighed, "I was going to tell the truth as soon as I saw the general, but at that time, the general insisted on cutting my head. I rudely asked the general, if I had said these words at that time, would you believe it?"
Guan Yu is arrogant, but this does not mean that he is unreasonable. Ma Yu's worries are indeed reasonable. At that time, even if he was honest, he was afraid that he would still regard it as a lie, and he would still cut off his head. Ma Yu did have his last resort.
At this moment, Guan Yu's anger quietly dissipated, and his trust in Ma Yu was a little flat. Guan Yu was very clear that if Ma Yu was a fraudulent surrender, his purpose had been achieved, and he would not risk talking about these extraterres. Therefore, there is no doubt about his heart of surrender.
It's just that Guan Yu is not stupid enough to believe such nonsense as "conscience is unreate".
"Ma, I'm very gratified that you can tell the truth. I also believe that you really want to surrender. However, I'm afraid your purpose is not just for the word 'conscience'.
Ma Qian was stunned at first, then laughed and arched his hand and said, "Sure enough, I still can't hide it from the general's eyes. In fact, the reason why I tell the general truthfully is that I want to offer another strategy for the general. If this strategy can be implemented, within three days, Linxiang will be broken."
'Well, what a bad conscience, as I expected, it's just a capricious person who wants to make contributions and seek fame, but it's just for my use.'
"Three days to break Linxiang? I'd like to hear what the trick is. Guan Yu's eyes showed curiosity.
Then Ma Yu spretted his strategy.
Guan Yu, who listened silently, nodded secretly. He, who was deeply generalized in the way of the army, obviously could see the subtlety of Ma Qian's plan. If he could really induce Liu Feng to make a plan, it was very likely to break through Linxiang City within three days.
After ponding for a long time, Guan Yu patted the case and said, "Okay, just follow your plan. Break Linxiang within three days and take Liu Feng's head!"
Late at night, in the brightly lit Taishou's house, Liu Feng held a letter in his hand, and a mysterious expression between his eyebrows appeared from time to time.
In a moment, Huang Zhong and Liu Ba arrived one after another.
"Lord, call us here late at night. Is there any news from Ma Qian?" Liu Ba asked impatiently.
"You guessed it correctly." Liu Feng showed the letter in his hand to the two people and sneered, "This is the secret letter just sent by Ma Qian. Everything is going according to our plan. The last link is tomorrow. Gentlemen, it's time to give a big gift to our General Guan."
