Reborn in the Three Kingdoms

text

Although Chen Chu did not make up his mind to storm Yecheng with an army of 20, he still ordered the Fourth Army to gather at Huguan, because no matter what the final decision was, there was nothing wrong with deploying the army first.

The reason why Chen Chu transferred the Fourth Army to Huguan instead of the First and Second Army was because the First Army had not fully recovered, and Chen Chu wanted them to cultivate for a while. As for the Second Army, they are currently Xiliang, Xiliang cannot do without them for the time being.

Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun, and the newly recruited Ma Chao all strongly requested to go to Huguan to participate in the battle against Cao Cao, but Chen Chu did not agree to any of them.

For several days, Chen Chu had been discussing with Jia Xu the strategy of fighting against Cao.At the same time, Chen Chu also sent pigeons to send letters to seek opinions from Zhou Yu and others who stayed in Bingzhou.Of course, Chen Chu could not launch an attack on Cao Cao for the time being, but Chen Chu intuitively felt that Cao Cao could not continue to grow bigger. [

Chen Chu has been busy with business affairs, Zhang Rui, Diao Chan and the others frowned, but they were considerate and considerate, they did not bother Chen Chu, but took care of Chen Chu's life meticulously.

On the third day after Chen Chu received the news of Yuan Shao's army's defeat, Yuan Shao's envoy suddenly came to Chang'an.

Chen Chu immediately received the other party in the inner hall.

The envoy can be said to be an old acquaintance of Chen Chu. He has inextricable connections with the Zhengbei Army. This person is Xu You and Xu Ziyuan.

"General, don't be ill!" Xu You saluted Chen Chu with a smile on his face.

Chen Chu laughed, then held Xu You's hand affectionately, and said, "Unexpectedly, it was Mr. Ziyuan! How has Mr. Ziyuan been with Brother Benchu?"

But Xu You didn't want to show sadness on his face and sighed.

Chen Chu was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Mr. Ziyuan, what troubles do you have?"

Xu You seemed to hesitate to speak, and finally sighed: "Don't say it! Don't say it!"

Chen Chu glanced at Jia Xu beside him, and Jia Xu shook his head.

Chen Chu turned his head and said sincerely: "Mr. Ziyuan and I are friends. If Mr. Ziyuan is in trouble, you can come to me!"

Chen Chu asked Xu You to sit down. At this time, Xu You showed emotion and said, "Forget it! The general and I are not outsiders, so I will talk to the general!"

Chen Chu sat down on the main seat, showing a listening expression.

Xu You clasped his fists at Chen Chu and said: "I'm not afraid of the general's jokes, I've been squeezed out everywhere by Yuan Shao, it's been really hard!"There was a depressed and distressed look on his face, but he was peeking at Chen Chu from the corner of his eyes, as if he was observing Chen Chu's reaction.

Chen Chu smiled lightly, thinking in his heart: What does Xu You mean by saying such a nonsensical sentence?Could it be that he has plans to leave Yuan Shao, so he is testing me!

Thinking of this, Chen Chu became concerned.

Chen Chu picked up the wine glass and said to Xu You: "Mr. Ziyuan, don't worry, drink this glass first and then talk." After speaking, drink it up first.

Xu You hurriedly picked up the wine glass to respect Chen Chu, and immediately drank it down.

Chen Chu put down his wine glass, looked at Xu You, and said straight to the point: "Mr. Xu You can come to my place if you are unwilling. I will definitely not treat Mr. Ziyuan badly." [

Xu You showed joy, and quickly got up and saluted Chen Chu: "The general is so attached to me, I am really grateful!" His voice was trembling, and his eyes were that of a long-suffering underground party member who finally found the party member. look.

Chen Chu smiled faintly, and said: "Brother Benchu ​​and I are brothers and sisters at the moment, so please ask Mr. Ziyuan to stay with Brother Benchu ​​for a while. Maybe I have something to ask Mr. Ziyuan for help."

Although Xu You's character is not good, he is by no means stupid, he can hear the meaning of Chen Chu's words.Hastily bowed down to Chen Chu, "I'm determined to do my lord's service!"

Hehe, the title was changed so quickly!

After Xu You showed his loyalty, Chen Chu asked him to sit down, and then asked, "Brother Benchu ​​sent Mr. Ziyuan here this time, what's the important thing?"

Xu You immediately replied: "Yuan Shao's 30 troops were wiped out in Dingtao.

Yuan Shao was terrified, he didn't know what to do, so he sent someone down to find out what the lord meant. "

Chen Chu and Jia Xu looked at each other, and then asked, "What is your advice to Brother Benchu?"

Xu You's face was bright, and he replied: "I said, we can join forces with the general to attack Cao."

"Oh? What does Yuan Shao mean?"

"Yuan Shao has already been persuaded by me, but there is still one condition missing." Xu You looked at Chen Chu inscrutablely.

"What conditions?"

"It is still necessary for the lord to send heavy troops out of Huguan to attack Yecheng. As long as the lord sends heavy troops to attack Yecheng, Yuan Shao will definitely regroup and attack Yanzhou!" Xu You looked at Chen Chu with piercing eyes.

Chen Chu was moved immediately.You can come here for whatever you want!If Yuan Shaojun cooperates, the problem will be solved!only……

Chen Chu looked at Xu You calmly, feeling a little worried.

Turning his head to look at Jia Xu who was at the side, he winked.

Jia Xu understood, clasped his fists at Xu You and said, "If that's the case, it would be great! Mr. Ziyuan can go back and tell Yuan Shao that I will raise 40 troops from Huguan to attack Yanzhou!"

Chen Chu was shocked, he didn't mean that!But Chen Chu didn't say anything, because he knew that Jia Xu must have his reasons for doing so.

Xu You showed surprise, "If this is the case, Yanzhou and Qingzhou will fall into the master's control soon!"

Although Chen Chu didn't know Jia Xu's plan yet, but at this time he cooperated and said: "Even if Cao Cao is eliminated, I will not take an inch of land in Yanzhou and Qingzhou."

Xu You thought that Chen Chu was talking about the scene, and quickly echoed with a smile: "My lord is really benevolent and righteous!"

Chen Chu smiled, and continued: "I will ask Your Majesty to draw up an imperial decree to make brother Benchu ​​the prime minister, and at the same time hand over the governance of Yanzhou and Qingzhou to brother Benchu."

Xu You was stunned for a moment, then seemed to understand something, and quickly clasped his fists in admiration and said, "My lord is really wise!"

Chen Chu laughed, stood up and walked down, Xu You stood up quickly, clasped his fists with his hands and bowed slightly to show his respect for Chen Chu.

Chen Chu held Xu You's arm affectionately, and said, "Mr. Ziyuan has been exhausted from the journey, so let's take a good rest! In the evening, I will clean up the dust for you in the residence!"

Xu You showed a flattered expression, and quickly said: "Thank you, my lord!"

Xu You's answer showed Xu You's character, good face, like to show off.If it is someone else, no matter what, they will be humble first.

Chen Chu personally sent Xu You out of the General's Mansion, and then ordered Dian Wei to send Xu You to the post house to stay.

After Xu You left, Chen Chu and Jia Xu turned around and walked to the backyard.

On the way, Chen Chu frowned slightly and asked Jia Xu, "Wen He, why did you say that to Xu You just now? That's not what I meant!" Chen Chu's tone showed some displeasure.

Jia Xu hurriedly bowed down and apologized: "This subordinate made the decision without authorization, and please forgive me, my lord!"

Chen Chu smiled bitterly, and said in his heart: You resourceful guys like to do this kind of thing!What's more, you are all out of public interest!What can I do with you!

"That's all! Get up and answer!"

"Thank you, my lord!" Jia Xu stood up and told Chen Chu his plan in detail.

……

In the end, Chen Chu laughed and said, "What a Jia Wenhe! You are so thoughtful!"

Jia Xu clasped her fists with a smile and said, "Your Majesty, the prize is too high!"

Immediately, the two looked at each other and burst out laughing.But there seemed to be a hint of conspiracy in the laughter.

That night, Chen Chu hosted a banquet for Xu You, Jia Xu and other generals in the backyard of the General's Mansion.During the dinner, Xu You talked high-spirited, very arrogant and arrogant. Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun were well-trained and did not have the same knowledge as him. The hot-tempered Lu Bu and Ma Chao couldn't get used to it. They had gloomy faces. I was afraid that the two of them would trouble Xu You on the spot.

A banquet ended without embarrassment, and only Xu You returned home happily.

"My lord, why do you treat that Xu You so well?" Lu Bu asked puzzled.

Chen Chu smiled, but did not answer.

The next day, Chen Chu went to the palace in person and asked Han Xiandi to draft an imperial edict, and then solemnly handed over the easily obtained imperial edict to Xu You.

In the afternoon, Xu You set off to return to Luoyang.Chen Chu personally went to the gate of the city to see him off.

Looking at the carriage rumbling away, Chen Chu showed a profound smile on his face.

At the end of August, Liu Bei, who had already withdrawn to Xiaopei, received an urgent report from Xuzhou. Yuan Shu in Huainan raided Xuzhou.

Liu Bei was taken aback when he received the urgent report, and did not dare to delay, so he immediately led the army to the south for reinforcements.As for Xiaopei, only 1 people were left to defend.

The beacon of the Central Plains War was once again ignited. ! ~!
