Chapter 146 I Made It All Up

"Is it the only way to go here?"

In Jiangling City, Cao Ren, who had suffered more and more losses recently, felt quite unwilling. Looking at the Jiangdong soldiers outside, he punched the top of the city with a resentful fist, and sighed deeply.

Damn it, if it wasn't for the delay in the arrival of reinforcements, how could I have been forced into this state?It really doesn't make sense.

Chang Diao persuaded from the side:
"General, we have tried our best, and now the food and grass in the city are almost exhausted, if we don't run quickly, I'm afraid we will all die here.

I don't regret waiting for death, but I hope that the general will leave a useful body, and I will have to lead our army to fight against a strong enemy in the future. "

Chang Diao was very sincere, which made Cao Ren even more unwilling. He touched his head in pain, looked up to the sky and sighed:
"Okay, breakout."

When Cao Ren dumped the school affairs to Chang Diao, he originally had the idea that more things are worse than less things. Anyway, he has no research on school affairs, and it is not in line with his style to lead a group of secretive people to hide in the corner.

Unexpectedly, after being dumped to Chang Diao, this group of school affairs quickly took root and sprouted, and gradually showed extraordinary intelligence capabilities. Countless military newspapers flooded into Cao Ren's mansion, making him once in the battle with the Sun Liu coalition army. prevailed.

At such a critical juncture, he was able to develop so many school affairs and collect so much accurate information, which shows Chang Diao's ability to defy the sky.

Since Guo Jia's death, Cao Jun no longer had such a talent. It happened that he came from a humble background and his character was worse than Guo Jia, so he was the best candidate to take over Cao Jun's school.

"Hmph, if Sun Liu's cunning did not cause us to suffer heavy losses in Wulin, Zhou Yu's son would have been captured by this general long ago.

When I go back, I must redouble my efforts, and I will see who is my opponent when the time comes. "

Chang Diao had a foolish smile on his face, and took the opportunity to flatter him:

"That's right, the general is invincible. As long as he returns to the Central Plains to recuperate, Sun Liu will be defeated by the general sooner or later."

"Hmph." Cao Ren snorted, and put on a confiding look, "Giant Eagle, we can withdraw, but your school affairs can't leave. Liu Bei has always been hypocritical and dare not slaughter the city. You ordered your school affairs to be a little bit more forbearing. After a while, sneak into Liu Bei's army again, and in the future, we will continue to report all the things in Liu Bei's army, so that our army can win."

Chang Diao solemnly said:
"I don't need the general's order for this matter, but there is one more thing I want to ask."

"But it doesn't matter."

"That Xu Shu, I think he is good at pen and ink. It just so happens that we need a few envoys in our army. If..."

Cao Ren frowned, not knowing how to reject Chang Diao's suggestion.

As an iron-blooded Cao army general, he could clearly feel that Xu Shu was not a good guy.

After all, Xu Shu was a dignitary who defected to Cao Cao, especially Cao Jun still used shady means to deceive him.

"Well, that's fine, when the time comes, I will ask the prime minister to give him a position as a military adviser to offer wine. If you can persuade this person, it would be a great thing.

But you have to be very careful, these thieves are full of tricks, you must not trust this person, so as not to be deceived by him. "

·
The intelligence leader Chang Diao didn't feel that Xu Shu was lying to him at all.

To be honest, Chang Diao felt that it was such an easy thing to deal with school affairs since someone like Xu Shu was around him.

Is this Liu Bei's military adviser before?
I, Chang Diao, could one day get Liu Bei's military adviser to serve me. Is this the legendary...

"Princes and generals, it's better to be kind."

Xu Shu lazily huddled in a corner of the small room, lightly fiddled with the wolf hair in his hand, and muttered in a deep and steady voice.

Chang Diao smiled extremely obsequiously, and said in a sticky voice:

"Chang has today, thanks to Mr. Yuanzhi."

Xu Shu let out a hey, and stuffed the several military reports he had just written into Chang Diao's hands.

Chang Diao quickly put it away as if he had found a treasure, and said timidly:
"By the way, sir, I've been wanting to ask you something."

"Ah."

"Where do you recruit these spies under Mr. Haha, I didn't mean to ask, but our army wants to break through according to Mr.'s wishes. If there is no news about Jingzhou in the future, I'm afraid... Hehe, I just want to Afraid of being suspected again."

He can't do civil and military affairs all the time, and if he takes the conventional route, he can be promoted to the leader of the tiger warriors around Cao Ren at most.

But Xu Shu told him that if he followed his own plan, he would surely be able to soar into the sky in the future, and he would be granted the title of Marquis and Prime Minister.

These days, Chang Diao's military situation is sorted out, summarized, and reported by Xu Shu. Although the results are not very accurate, Chang Diao has just mastered the school affairs, and he can get so much in a desperate situation like Jiangling. The information was still appreciated by everyone in Cao Ren.

Cao Ren said that he would recommend Chang Diao to take over Guo Jia's position. This was already the beginning of a huge leap, and Chang Diao was of course unwilling to give up his sources of information at this time.

Xu Shu smiled lightly and sighed:

"I don't hide it from Giant Eagle either—to be honest, I collected all these military newspapers by myself."

"Ah?" Chang Diao's expression changed from bewilderment to bewilderment to shock, and finally he almost knelt down to Xu Shu, "Yuan Zhi, Mr. Yuan Zhi has such a skill! This, this is really a pedantic man, who knows things like a god, It's really a god!"

Xu Shu laughed and said:
"The giant eagle must have misunderstood it. I mean..."

He tore off a military newspaper and burned it casually.

In the flickering firelight, Xu Shu's gloomy smile was actually quite handsome.

"I mean, I made these up."

"Fake..." Chang Diao's eyes suddenly widened like copper bells, "All, are they all fake?"

"Of course it's a lie." Xu Shu said kindly, "I was trapped in Jiangling, and I'm not a god. How could I know so many things? If I really have such abilities, how can Prime Minister Cao deceive me to come here?"

"Uh, yes." Chang Diao was taken aback.

He finally understood why Xu Shu's information was so inaccurate before, it was originally made up.

but……

"That's not right. Before Zhou Yu was hit by an arrow, everyone rumored that he was dead. Only the gentleman's military situation said that he just used his injury to deliberately lure me out of the city? This, this is indeed the case."

"If Zhou Yu had died, the Wu army would have dispersed long ago, at least there would have been chaos in the army, it is not difficult to guess.

In order to show my ability, I deliberately let people spread rumors that Zhou Yu was dead, and then I wrote this in the military newspaper. "

Chang Diao: ...

"That's not right. Zhou Yu took advantage of the night to attack Nancheng before, and the master's military situation is so predictable. Didn't you also guess it right away?"

"Before, Zhou Yu failed repeatedly in attacking the west of the city. Knowing that the south of the city was guarded by Cao Hong, he naturally had to try another place. I guessed every day that he was going to attack the south city. It doesn't matter if I guessed right once in a while."

Chang Diao: ...

"That's not right. The young masters said before that if Guan Yu was defeated, Jingzhou would be fine. Only the gentleman guessed... oh, I want to understand this too."

Although he figured it out, it was still difficult for Chang Diao to turn this corner.

He originally thought that Xu Yuanzhi, who was hiding in the dark and mastering countless spies, turned out to be a cunning person who was hiding in the dark and racking his brains every day to make up all kinds of false military information.

This made him unable to accept such a big change for a while.

Xu Shu said with a smile:
"It seems that the giant eagle is very uncomfortable, it seems that the giant eagle is very concerned about this matter."

Of course I care...

Before that, Chang Diao was just a warrior bodyguard next to Chang Diao, relying on Cao Ren's favor, he just collected some rewards at will.

He clearly understands the wonderful taste of holding great power.

As a bodyguard under Cao Ren, he can lead an army of three to five thousand or more than ten thousand at most.

But if he could make some achievements and guard one side, he would not only gain huge power, but also honor his ancestors. Of course, he wanted to make some achievements in the position of school affairs.

Xu Shu laughed and said:

"There are different ways of doing things for a big man.

The giant eagle worked very hard before and was not reused. This time, it used Xu's fabricated military situation, but it was promoted step by step. It's nothing.

The things you can do are in line with Shangguan's speculation, and the matter has already been half completed.

If it doesn't conform to Shangguan's conjecture, it will be... Hehe, if Shangguan doesn't like it, it's tantamount to failure. "

Chang Diao was too slow to understand other things, but he quickly grasped this principle, he nodded immediately, with a little more expectation on his face: "After that..."

"It will be the same after that. Before I asked the general to marry Cao Hong, the general should have done a good job, right?"

Before Xu Shu asked Chang Diao to use the convenience of the school to do things for Cao Hong, and took advantage of Cao Jun’s short-term opening of the Yangtze River waterway to receive a large number of Shu brocades. These expensive Shu brocades were sent to Cao Ren’s army. Diao worshiped him, and promised that if Chang Diao had any problems, he would come to him anyway, and he would try his best to solve it.

"That's it." Xu Shu said with a sneer, "Cao Ren still abides by the law, and dare not make fun of his own life at this time. But Cao Hong dared to sell the knife to the person who was about to hack him to death as long as he made a profit.

With his help, the general will definitely have a lot of money and food in the future. "

The muscles on Chang Diao's face twitched, and he remembered Xu Shu's previous arrangement - Xu Shu strongly advocated giving up Jiangling and withdrawing troops, and asked Chang Diao to keep all the rations here before withdrawing.

"It seems that Mr. Yuanzhi is really thinking about the old master." Chang Diao couldn't help but yin and yang.

Xu Shu smiled and said:
"Yes, in front of the giant eagle, I dare to be honest about this matter."

"Clam?"

"I take the giant eagle as a friend. As long as I don't do anything to offend my friend, I can help the old master and revive the Han Dynasty. There are not many such good things in this world. Why doesn't Xu do it?"

Xu Shu was like a big bad wolf wagging its tail. He smiled and got up and patted Chang Diao on the shoulder:

"My lord Liu Shijun will definitely remember the general's kindness. For the benefit of the Shu brocade, as long as General Chang is willing to share the benefits with Cao Hong, it will be a matter of course for him to rise to the top."

"In the future, the general will help the Han Dynasty, and the general will also be a hero."
