Three Kingdoms: Do you call this a weak counselor? !

Chapter 160 Zhang Cheng left a deep psychological shadow!
If the letter sent this time was just sent by Cao Cao in his own name, then Zhang Xiu would never attach such importance to it.

But now, I heard from people on Cao Cao's side that the letter sent was written by Zhang Cheng himself.

Under this situation, Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu did not show any signs of neglect.

After all, the impression Zhang Cheng left on him before was too profound.

Zhang Xiu has always considered himself to be very powerful in martial arts. Not to mention invincible, he can definitely join the ranks of first-rate military generals.

As a result, when he faced Zhang Cheng, Zhang Cheng knocked his own gun away with one shot.

If Zhang Cheng hadn't saved his life, he would have died immediately.

Even after so long, whenever he thought of Zhang Cheng's shot, he still felt powerless and had no way to resolve it.

So much so that sometimes, when I sleep at night, I have dreams.

Dreaming about the scene at that time still gives rise to a deep sense of powerlessness.

So after learning that it was a handwritten letter from Zhang Cheng, he didn't dare to be negligent.

He immediately invited Jia Xu over and asked Jia Xu to come and watch together.

After Jia Xu arrived, he opened the letter under Jia Xu's witness.

After seeing that it was not a familiar bamboo slip but a piece of paper, both of them were slightly surprised.

But the shock didn't last long.

Unfold the paper and look at it.

Just after seeing the words written on the paper.

Both Jia Xu and Zhang Xiu were attracted by the handwriting on the paper.

This is really good calligraphy!

Powerful and powerful, the pen is as sharp as a knife!

Just by looking at this word, you can feel that the person writing is a very bold and ambitious person.

Thinking again about Zhang Cheng's reputation and the many things Zhang Cheng had done, both of them felt that this was indeed very consistent with Zhang Cheng.

“I never expected that this piece of writing could contain such good calligraphy!”

Jia Xu couldn't help but praise it out loud, feeling shocked by Zhang Cheng's exquisite calligraphy.

While I felt shocked, I also felt it was natural.

I don’t think this was written by someone else, after all, Zhang Cheng has such a great reputation.

Compared to his martial arts skills, more and more people now gradually accept that he is a weak counselor.

And his reputation as a weak counselor is getting more and more famous.

Under such circumstances, they took it for granted that Zhang Cheng could write a good calligraphy, and did not think there was any doubt.

If it were someone like Zhang Cheng, he would write very ugly words.

This kind of thing makes people feel surprised and incomprehensible.

As soon as the two of them took a look, they were shocked by Zhang Cheng's handwriting.

Then, he looked at the written content.

After reading the letter, Zhang Xiu's brows felt a little painful and his temples throbbed.

If nothing else, the main reason is that what Zhang Cheng said in the letter was too rude and too arrogant.

When he looked at the front, he thought it was a normal surrender letter and wanted to let him go.

But after reading it, I found that this letter was not just that simple.

In addition to asking for surrender, he also said many arrogant and domineering words.

He said that if his side did not act in accordance with his request and surrender to Cao Cao, the heavenly troops would soon arrive and crush his side to pieces.

Zhang Xiu is also a young and energetic person who has always been very proud.

How can I stand such stimulation?

So as soon as I heard such words, I couldn't help but get angry.

I really want to tear this letter into pieces.

Then immediately lead the troops and go to fight Cao Cao!

But he remembered Zhang Cheng's terrifying combat power and the scene that left him with a psychological shadow.

He suppressed his thoughts again and again, and did not dare to do so.

"Mr. Wenhe, look... what should we do?"

Zhang Xiu was silent for a while and took a deep breath.

He endured the many uncomfortable thoughts in his heart and looked at Jia Xu to ask.

To be honest, it seems that Zhang Xiu is relatively calm on the surface at this time, but in fact he is very panicked inside.

The letter sent from Cao Cao, written by Zhang Cheng himself, was also somewhat beyond his expectations.

You know, as early as the beginning, he felt that he had taken refuge with Liu Biao.

Then the possibility of facing off against Cao Cao is unlikely.

Even in the future, he will really face Cao Cao.

That will only happen after a long time.

How could I have imagined that in just a short period of time, I would have already encountered such a thing.

After Jia Xu heard Zhang Cheng's words.

He took his eyes away from Zhang Cheng's letter and looked at Zhang Xiu: "Young General, if you really think about it, this matter will definitely happen.

The terrain occupied by Wancheng is too delicate.

It would have been better if Cao Cao hadn't moved the emperor's capital to Xu County.

But now, he welcomed the emperor to Xu County.

So many things have to change.

The location of the major general's location is too subtle.

It can be called the south gate of Xudu.

From here to attack Cao Cao's Xudu, if we really have to march day and night, we can reach it in only two days and two nights.

Under such circumstances, how could Cao Cao rest assured that this place was in the hands of an irrelevant person like the Major General?

He will definitely find a way to hold it in his own hands.

He would feel at ease only if this kind of place was in his hands.

And it can be seen that this Cao Mengde captured Xuzhou and occupied Yanzhou.

Now it has gradually begun to develop its business scope towards Yuzhou.

Now we are working hard to occupy more space.

Wancheng is the place that Cao Cao will definitely take from now on.

Here, the Major General joined forces with Liu Biao.

Liu Biao accepted the major general and placed him here in Wancheng.

The reason is also to guard against Cao Cao.

Under this situation, the major general's side can be said to be very important.

It became the front line of battle between Liu Biao and Cao Cao.

Now Cao Cao is very powerful, and the emperor is in his hands.

And judging from the information obtained, Dong Cheng and others are no match for Cao Cao at all.

Cao Cao has now taken preliminary control of the court.

This year, Cao Cao's food production has increased astonishingly.

It can be said that the soldiers are well-prepared.

And this has become a place that Cao Cao must win.

So what Zhang Cheng said in his letter, that if the young general does not submit to him, there will definitely be people coming to attack, will definitely come true.

So I think it would be better for the Major General to think twice about this matter. "

Jia Xu could sense Zhang Xiu's true thoughts.

Zhang Xiu really didn't want to submit to Cao Cao.

Although he had told Jia Xu as early as the beginning.

It was said that before this time they left the team escorting the emperor and came to Liu Biao's side, it was only temporary.

If the situation changes in the future, they can come to Cao Cao at a higher price.

Let Cao Cao go out and welcome them back with more favorable conditions.But no matter how good his words are, his true thoughts cannot be hidden from a smart person like Jia Xu.

He knew why Zhang Xiu didn't want to do this.

In addition to being young and energetic, he is unwilling to succumb to others.

The biggest reason was actually that the impression Zhang Cheng left on him was too profound.

Zhang Xiu had some feelings of fear and resistance towards Zhang Cheng.

It made him very worried that when he came to Cao Cao's side in the future, Zhang Xiu would be suppressed by the presence of a person like Zhang Cheng.

And he was also worried after he surrendered to Cao Cao.

In the future, Cao Cao will be deprived of military power. This is not what he wants to see.

But at this time, we have once again reached the decision point of fate.

There are some things that Jia Xu should still say.

And Zhang Xiu could also tell from Jia Xu's words that Jia Xu still hoped that he could come to Cao Cao and accept Zhang Cheng's surrender.

Zhang Xiu remained silent about this.

After a while, Zhang Xiu looked at Jia Xu and said, "Mr. Wenhe, what if we join forces with Liu Biao to fight against Cao Cao?
Wancheng is the south gate to Cao Cao.

But it can also be regarded as the north gate of Liu Biao Jingzhou.

Once such a place is lost, it will be an open arms for Liu Biao.

This is not a good result!
Liu Biao probably wouldn't agree.

They will definitely raise troops with us to fight against Cao Cao.

Liu Biao's Jingzhou was vast and rich in resources.

Liu Biao was a relative of the emperor, and there were so many capable people with lofty ideals under his command.

Under such circumstances, it is not impossible for a joint attack to be effective.

Compared with relying on others, it is better to make the decision yourself. "

Jia Xu didn't feel any surprise when he heard Zhang Xiu say this.

In this regard, he didn't say much else, just asked Zhang Xiu silently.

"Since the Major General has made such a plan.

So next, if Zhang Chengzhen leads his troops to attack in person.

So how should the young general respond?

Can it really block Zhang Cheng's attack? "

With just one sentence, Zhang Xiu fell silent.

After a while, Zhang Xiu said: "Cao Cao has other soldiers and horses.

It is not certain that Zhang Cheng will be sent here.

I think this letter written by Zhang Cheng is more likely to be used to intimidate. "

Jia Xu said: "Even if we don't send Zhang Cheng here, we can send the rest of the people here.

Are you sure that the Major General can handle it? "

Zhang Xiu fell silent again.

After a while, he added: "As long as Zhang Cheng doesn't come, I won't be afraid of anyone else coming. They will all be able to fight."

Jia Xu said: "Even the young general can really defeat the rest of Cao Cao's people who came.

Then Cao Cao will definitely send Zhang Cheng here in the end. How should he deal with it then?

Major General, these all need to be carefully considered. "

Jia Xu's words made Zhang Xiu silent for a while.

After a while, Zhang Xiu finally said: "Okay, I understand.

This future thing is still too far away.

For now, it's better to just take it one step at a time.

I feel unwilling to surrender to Cao Cao like this.

Moreover, this traitor Cao Cao is too treacherous, and ordinary people are no match for him.

Not to mention the rest, some of those who escorted the emperor there were reused by him.

So it's better to wait for this matter. "

Jia Xu tried to persuade him a few more times, but seeing that Zhang Xiu already had his own thoughts, he couldn't say any more.

After leaving Zhang Xiu, Jia Xu couldn't help but shook his head.

He didn't think Zhang Xiu's decision was very shrewd.

On the contrary, I feel that things like this will definitely be reversed later on.

Don't look at Zhang Xiu, who is struggling so hard at this moment.

But in the end, he will definitely fall into Cao Cao's arms.

The main reason is because Cao Cao's side is strong enough.

From now on, many places of this big man will probably fall into Cao Cao's hands.

If Cao Cao didn't get Zhang Cheng, a talented man with both literary and military skills, Jia Xu would only think of Cao Cao as a character.

We are sure to achieve some extraordinary achievements in the future.

But his evaluation of Cao Cao would never be so high, nor would he be so certain.

But now that he has Zhang Cheng, he can be sure that the one who will conquer the world in the future will definitely be Cao Cao.

But despite this, Jia Xu had no intention of leaving Zhang Xiu.

On the one hand, it is because Jia Xu misses his old love.

On the other hand, it is also because Jia Xu can be sure.

If I stay here with Zhang Xiu, I will be able to come to Cao Cao's side and win Cao Cao's trust through some operations in the future.

He still has this ability.

He is confident that his life will not be threatened.

When it comes to preserving life, Jia Xu is more proficient and cares more about it than anyone else.

Soon, Zhang Xiu made a decision.

He rejected Zhang Cheng's offer to surrender on behalf of Cao Cao.

And quickly made contact with Liu Biao in the rear.

On the Xu County side, Cao Cao was waiting for news from Zhang Xiu.

In his opinion, he had the letter sent by his good son-in-law Zhang Cheng.

I'm afraid there is a good chance that I can defeat others without fighting.

He was able to get Zhang Xiu, Jia Xu and many of the Xiliang warriors they led who were good at conquering and fighting.

You can also get a lot of land.

Easily get all these into your own hands.

But after waiting for a while, I got the news that Zhang Xiu refused to accept the surrender.

After learning the news, Cao Cao seemed a little stunned.

Then his face became a little ugly.

This embroidery is really shameless! !

It seems that if he doesn't move some troops here to teach him a lesson, he has no idea how strong his side is.

Don’t you know how high the sky is and how thick the earth is! !

Cao Cao immediately gathered people to discuss countermeasures, mobilized troops, and prepared to personally lead troops to conquer Zhang Xiu.

At the same time, letters were also sent to Zhang Cheng.

He said that he would take Cao Ang away and go with him to conquer Zhang Xiu, so that Cao Ang could learn a lot.

Zhang Cheng, who was on Chen Liujun's side, after learning the news.

Can't help being a little surprised.

In other words, my coming here has already changed a lot of history.

But do some things still happen that should happen?
He did not dare to neglect too much and rushed from Chenliu County to Xudu...
