Three Kingdoms: Cao Ying's mastermind, from nine to five

Chapter 309 Are You Crazy?Take me so far!
If it is said that Xu Zhen sent it, but he went to Jiangdong by himself, it is really courageous, and ordinary advisers dare not go alone, nor do they have the courage to make a decision.

Of course, Ma Di's courage should have been obtained from a sleepless conversation with Mr. Liu Qi at the beginning.

However, this also shows that his talent is favored by Liu Qi.

But after going to Jiangdong, the alliance peace talks seemed to be concluded, but not completely.

Isn't this Jiangdong still trying to plot Jingzhou in essence?If I had known that it would have been better for me to lead Jingzhou by myself and secretly cooperate with Emperor Jing Sheng to kill the Cai family, now I might have 30 soldiers and horses under my command.

"Well, well, let's not mention this matter for the time being, if we rely on our own abilities in the future, I don't think you will blame the young master." Liu Bei reluctantly said something in the middle, and then smiled bitterly: "But it is too early to say. "

"Right now, we still have to think about how to repel Cao's army. Behind them are the northern states, which can deliver a steady stream of food, grass and soldiers every year."

"Zijing, to put it bluntly, you can't force Cao Cao to retreat just by defending... You must win a big victory. Is there such a chance?"

Lu Su's smile froze slightly, but he still said seriously: "There will be a chance."

"Uncle Huang, don't worry too much. Now that we have decided to form an alliance, the next step is to discuss countermeasures. How to resist Cao Cao with a corner. Now you are in Jiangxia, and I am waiting in Jiangdong. If Cao Jun attacks any side, he can be there. Threat later."

I've spoken to him twice already, and this is the third time.

At this point, the alliance between Sun and Liu was formed to resist the invasion of Cao Jun.

Xu Zhen and Zhuge Liang were stunned.

That is Jiujiang County. No one knew why he took this route before.

"Tsk, do you believe it?"

If you kill him, you may really not be able to go back and die.

But he belongs to the contrast stream, not that kind of contrast, he belongs to the kind who is gentle on the surface, but he is more ruthless than anyone else when he hacks people behind his back.

"Take this money, go to Jiujiang, and then go to Chenliu, Uncle Dian, how many soldiers do you think you can recruit?!"

……

However, he was defeated by Guan Yu's army and suffered a lot of damage. Hundreds of people were captured and thousands of horses were lost.

Dian Wei caught up with Xu Zhen, as usual, he likes to follow behind and ask why.

This Dianwei is both good at food and loves to ask questions!
"Here's a mission for you!"

"However, northern soldiers and horses are good at infantry and land warfare, but not good at water warfare. The few soldiers and horses in Cai Mao's hands alone are not to be feared."

"In that case, he doesn't have so many troops. At the same time, at least he can be safe and worry-free."

"Cheqi, don't make fun of the last general anymore! Zihe and Uncle Zixiao thought the journey was too dangerous, so they let the last general lead the army to protect them secretly. For the sake of secrecy, no one knew about it."

The main reason is that he has been used to it for so many years, and he often falls into confusion. Because Xu Zhen is used to Dian Wei, he will answer seriously every time. It happens that Dian Wei, because of his temperament, cannot understand the explanation, and forgets it after a drink.

After arriving in Shucheng, the next step is to go to Huainan.

It was only at this time that Cao Cao realized that although Liu Biao was dead, he had also left a lot of heritage in Jingzhou after operating for so many years.

"Also, I remember that money was used to encourage breeding and marriage at the beginning. I am afraid that in the next few decades, these three places will receive a lot of favorable policies and benefit future generations."

So Xu Zhen would never kill him.

See Huang Zhong and Zhang Liao.

Whether it can be used depends on his attitude in the future, and at the same time, it will also let Cao have a pair of eyes and ears by his side, so that the prime minister will not be so worried, and accepting Cao Zhen is to make him feel at ease.

Turn around and leave quickly.

With tens of thousands of soldiers, how could they worry about meritorious service in the future? Besides, the more recruits, the better.

"So, this is an excellent opportunity for you to hunt down Liu Cong's mother and son along the way, and not let them go to Qingzhou."

However, Dian Wei's expectation did not come true. Not long after, a lieutenant colonel came and told Pang Tong the news.

And if Liu Qi is ill, he will gradually rely on Liu Bei, so just talk to him about the alliance, and there is no need to deliberately tell Liu Qi.

Xu Zhen said with a smile.

Xu Zhen originally planned to let Huang Zhong go. After all, he shoots arrows like a god, so he simply led the cavalry to rush to shoot and kill.

Yu Jin leads the army to discipline himself, is fair and strict, has a high prestige in the army, and is good at learning. This time he is ordered to study strictly, and it must be effective in one winter.

"Oh, oh..." Anyway, Dian Wei basically didn't understand the middle part of the sentence, but if he understood it, he could recruit tens of thousands of soldiers, how can he be unhappy, if all the 1 people are all me.

Cao Zhen turned his face away, but Xu Zhen squatted in front of him again. Although he didn't smile on his face, this suppressed smile made him feel even more uncomfortable.

It looks elegant and refined.

He simply thought he was floating, but Zhuge Liang didn't realize it until the moment he saw the six thousand soldiers in the Runan Outer Barracks.

"Um……"

Xu Zhen still smiled without saying a word, and had been tidying up her desk case. She had just finished reading the military book, so she habitually kept the desk spotless.

Xu Zhen took out the superstitious letter Cao Cao gave him before leaving, handed it to Dian Wei, and said solemnly: "This is an agreement between me and the prime minister, as long as he sends Cao Zhenyi here , everyone will look at me, they are curious whether I really dare to kill Cao Zidan."

"Huh? Didn't they recruit soldiers later?"

"Be fully prepared, and Wen Yuan told me that when I came here, I met a tiger and leopard rider. I'm still waiting for an explanation."

Both Xu Chu and Zhao Yun are waiting for the credit, unlike Dian Wei and Xu Zhen who have gone through a lot of life and death, and they feel a bit generous.

"Just rest and recuperate, and follow me to guard the border."

"I don't know if Uncle Dian's reaction is slow or too fast. Blinking has already persuaded himself."

But Dian Wei didn't believe that someone in the Cao family would want to fish in troubled waters, unless the prime minister didn't know.

not simple.

"Well, thank you, uncle, for your understanding!"

A few simple words are not enough to shock people, but the confidence and determination in Lu Su's tone are reassuring.

Moreover, several capable lieutenants were beheaded by Guan Yu. From this, it can be determined that the land route is not feasible. The defenses established over the years can be said to rely on mountain dangers and rivers, which is enough for Guan and Zhang to guard the pass.

Lu Su stood up and bowed deeply to Liu Bei.

Dian Wei was dumbfounded, not understanding the meaning of these words for a moment.

"The increase or decrease of soldiers and horses every year will not be very large, so we simply followed the original master's policy to keep the people quiet and increase internal governance to enrich the people."

Cao Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, he thought he would be tortured again.

"Because he appeared in the gorge of Chenghe River."

Xu Zhen patted him on the shoulder.

"You just need to restrain yourself."

Dian Wei leaned back, not at all afraid that Xu Zhen would be offended, anyway, he asked if he didn't understand, which was in line with the temperament of a Confucian scholar.

Pang Tong was completely out of alcohol, so he came on his horse immediately, and reported to Xu Zhen, "Che Qi, the prime minister beat Du Wei Cao Zhen twenty army sticks, and then, without waiting for him to recover, used a crude prison cart to escort him outside the barracks. , specially came to chase you..."

"That makes sense, so why send him here now? Could it be that you want to kill him?"

At this time, Xu Zhen had joined the army from Runan.

Xu Zhen said calmly, with a smile on his face. Of course, he understood the meaning of the prime minister's arrangement, and Cao Zhen was basically handed over to him.

"This is the last year in the Central Plains, and there is no transfer order in the future, so you can't lead troops south."

Strange to say, Xu Zhen is a few years older, but Cao Zhen has a bushy beard and looks much more mature. Xu Zhen is more and more white and elegant, suitable for wearing a counselor's uniform.

Xu Zhen paused for a moment, the smile on his face almost disappeared, "If he protects, the Prime Minister should tell me, otherwise I will take the initiative?"

When he arrived in Jiangxia, he saw Liu Bei's appraisal for the first time, and he knew that now Jiangxia had gradually turned to Liu Huangshu as the master.

Cao Jun returned in defeat, and Cao Ren was defeated after drinking heavily.

"Hey," Dian Wei nodded, but he didn't feel that he had lost another sentence. Instead, he agreed with Xu Zhen's statement.

It can also create my Dian family as a family of generals!
Ask more next time.

Taking the secret order and leaving, Xu Zhen finally felt that his ears were quiet, and stopped him before leaving, "Awei, remember to dress up as a bandit, anyway, you can't be recognized, and you can't be known that you are in Qingzhou. "

After the autumn harvest, Cao Cao's troops had enough food and supplies, so he dispatched cavalry first. Several groups of Jingzhou cavalry led by Xu Huang and Cao Ren attacked Jiangxia.

Zhuge Liang strode up to Xu Zhen.

"Oh?"

But now, you, Dian Wei, have great abilities.

"So, at least tens of thousands of recruits can be recruited to follow us to Bingzhou."

Xu Zhen raised his brows immediately, glanced at Dian Wei meaningfully, and then felt better, "Go, go and have a look."

Lu Su's analysis of the general situation is enough to make Liu Bei envious, envious of Sun Ce having such a counselor by his side.

Anyone who can get it can compete.

"got it?"

Immediately smiled and said: "Uncle Dian, you don't know about this. The military salary we give for recruiting soldiers is not comparable to them, and there is no shortage of soldiers now. If the rest of the eunuchs have no reputation, they will not recruit soldiers wantonly." .”

Thinking of this, Liu Bei meditated for a while, and then immediately made a decision, and said: "Okay, if you are respected, you will know that great things can be accomplished."

Xu Zhen, who heard this, was already smiling lightly. There is no need to explain too much. Zhuge Liang always understands his heart best. The real benefit of this trip is not to shock those who want to do it in Jingzhou, destroy the Kuai clan and beat the rest of the clans .

"Ah?!" Cao Zhen was stunned, "Where are you going?"

Lost countless supplies, but they also fully saw the soldiers and horses on the Jiangxia land road.

Xu Zhen glanced aside, only shook his head bitterly, and didn't intend to laugh at anything, just squatted down and talked to Cao Zhen, "I heard that you were beaten like this just because you appeared in the Chengshui River Gorge?"

Naturally, the situation was as he had expected, and it was not surprising that he could hold on for several years. To repel Cao Jun, the most important thing was patience.

Of course, he also believed in Xu Zhen, so he would rather have no result now.

Now Xu Zhen's temperament is more elegant and easy-going, and he is in a better mood, so I don't intend to explain.

To be honest, if Xu Zhen really thought that he was secretly sending troops to assassinate him, he would definitely be punished in Runan.

The prime minister meant the same thing, let Xu Zhen do what he wanted.

Sure enough, as long as I ask with an open mind, Cheqi will give me merit, and my meritorious service can stabilize my position, and I will be famous all over the world in the future, and my name will go down in history.

"Who knows that the prime minister doesn't believe it, so he will be severely punished."

"Master! Taking this route seems to give Jingzhou scholars a chance to gather dead soldiers, but in fact, it is secretly for the purpose of recruiting soldiers!"

But Zhuge Liang was very excited. After he figured this out, he learned long-term planning.

"Get a good rest when you come, don't worry, no one will beat you again."

"Understood!" Dian Wei's face darkened, he became serious, and asked with doubts on his face: "But, how to pretend to be a bandit? Where can I find those bandit things?"

"Let me save him!" Xu Zhen replied bluntly.

In the big tent of the military camp, Cao Zhen was carried into the main tent, lying on the ground unable to move, his clothes were lifted off his back, and scarlet scars were visible, which made people shudder.

"Then let's go, don't be seen through by others, it's too late for us."

This is how he, as a hero of the generation, was finally able to confront Cao Cao in the air.

"Why?" At this moment Dian Wei had already chased to the door, Xu Zhen gasped, his scalp was numb!

"Hey, why did you beat him with a military stick?"

"So he either came to wait and see, or he came to kill me, or he was to lead the way for the Jingzhou gentry."

"It's okay, I believe it." Xu Zhen put his head on Cao Zhen's head.

Then more than 6000 recruits followed.

"What do you mean?"

"Bingzhou."

So although wisdom has grown over the years, it's not much, just a little bit.

"If it is done well, it will be a great achievement!" Xu Zhen patted him on the shoulder.

……

Moreover, Cao Zhen's ability is not bad, and he also has the appearance of a general. He is not as good as those who turned the big waves in the long river of history, but he also has unique abilities.

"The tiger and leopard ride, alas, you must be thinking too much," Dian Wei patted his thigh, and secretly gave Xu Zhen a white look.

"Then why do you want to beat him when you show up? Maybe he came to deliver food? Besides, it may be that Zi He and the general secretly sent troops to protect you!"

"A few years ago, when the prefects of these three places were acting as their representatives, I remember that they focused on raising the people, doubled internal governance, and did not recruit soldiers. How many strong men and brave men have there been in these years!"

Dian Wei also laughed, "Yes!"

This sudden errand made Dian Wei awe-inspiring and delighted.

"Tsk tsk tsk, it's really ruthless."

After Dian Wei heard this sentence, he was suddenly taken aback, and he leaned back and said, "Oh, Cao Chun is—"

Along the way, there are no less than ten places where you can ambush soldiers. How can you rush forward?
After the autumn battle, it really made Cao Cao attach importance to the navy, and let Cai Hao take Yujin to the navy to practice.

Xu Zhen chuckled, "Don't worry, just go back to Bingzhou before winter."

Zhuge Liang was so excited that he quickly walked in front of Dianwei, and explained with a smile on his face: "Uncle Dian, let's go to Shucheng for the first stop. It is the fiefdom of Master. You can take away countless money and food, and at the same time, you still have people's popularity." Chuanyang, not to mention Shucheng, even in the territory of Runan, you can already recruit thousands of soldiers!"

"Here!" Dian Wei made up his mind and smiled all over his face. To be honest, other generals absolutely do not have the ability to make achievements.

The main reason is that I sent it here on the basis of guilt, and I have been tortured along the way. The prime minister even wrote a letter to Xu Zhen to let him know the ins and outs of the matter.

What Xu Zhen really wanted was to recruit soldiers.

He has just arrived in Shucheng now.

"Are you going?! Why don't you kill me!" Cao Zhen's eyes widened and his face twitched. He didn't understand what Xu Zhen meant. Either you beat me up and let me go back, or you killed me in a rage.

What's the use of taking me with you?

I don't really want to belong to you. Could it be that you took me, Cao Zidan, as a prisoner of war? !
