Lu's relatives

Chapter 635 Dark Gap, Who Is The Three States ([-])
Wancheng's intention to surrender was beyond Qin Xu's expectations.

After all, although the forces of Lu Bu's army had opened up the situation in Jingzhou by coincidence, their influence was because Cai Mao betrayed Liu Biao and joined Cao Cao with a part of Nanjun, Nanyang County, and Jiangxia County as the capital of his promotion. The area of ​​control of the insufficient Lu Bu army was divided into two halves by the river, and it was limited to the four Jingnan counties on the half of Jingzhou.Except for Jiangling City, which is in danger of war, it can barely be connected with Wancheng by a branch of the big river, but there is also Xinye City, which is heavily armed by Cao Cao, in the middle.With Cai Mao and other generals in the navy, it is not easy to open this passage smoothly.

What's more, whether it's Qin Xu or Lu Bu, or the civil and military forces of Lu Bu's army, they have all reached a consensus long ago. In Hebei, it is still undecided. In the west, Liu Yan and his son plus Liu Biao, who is in exile, probably don't want Lu Bu in their hearts. When the army passed too smoothly, it was too early to start a war with the tyrannical Cao Cao, so that if it faced the enemy three times, it would not be a big deal for Lu Bu's army, which now spans Qing, Xu, Yang, and Jing. A great idea.

In this way, Wancheng's move needs to be carefully planned.To say that they don't covet the Xiliang iron cavalry with at least [-] people would be duplicity, but Wancheng's geographical location is too special.Stretching between the three prefectures of Jing, Yan, and Yong, with the advantage of Wuguan, it can be said that it has driven a nail in the center of Cao Cao's power.According to Cao Cao's temperament, how can he allow others to snore and sleep on the side of the couch?It's hard to say that it was just because of the same concerns as Lu Bujun's, and because he was worried that Lu Bu, Liu Biao, Ma Teng, Han Sui and others would take the back road, so he "let" Wancheng enjoy himself for three years.Now that half of Jingzhou has been taken, Wancheng has been encircled in a practical sense. If he doesn't do it again, it will not be his Boss Cao's style.

This is why even Jia Xu, who is the most intelligent in the world, is still scratching his head.Both Qin Xu and Jia Xu understand that this situation is not easy to break!For the sake of [-] Xiliang iron cavalry, it is not worthwhile for the Cao Cao forces in Jingzhou to fight head-on, and even if they finally win by relying on the tyrannical combat power of Lu Bu's army. There will inevitably be heavy losses, and who will be the last happy person at that time, but it may not be known.No wonder Jia Xu said that the choice between them depends on Lu Bu's attitude.And Qin Xu's joking answer with himself also considered the worst possible outcome. He pointed out that those Xiliang people who dared to rob the emperor and ministers in the past, but whose strength is enough to influence the power of the current party, their reputation is really worrying. .Not to mention that in the end Lv Bu puts all his strength into fighting Cao Cao to the death and let others take advantage of it. At that time, when the strength of Lv Bu's army is damaged, these people will turn to any nearby forces. For Lu Bujun, it was a disaster.If this is the case, then he has really hit the overall situation set by Cao Cao in Jia Xu's mind!
"You can't fight, and you can't weaken the prestige of the lord. Wenhe, if we do something in Hebei, will it attract Cao Cao's attention? Anyway, Wancheng is worried about being helpless, and the army has food and supplies. Sooner or later it will be exhausted, and sooner or later it will be eaten up by Cao Cao's sticky bones. But it should last for a while, so let's use this time to do something in Hebei, and at the same time let Ziyi also take the opportunity to find out whether these people are It’s really true sincerity. After all, I try to attract Cao Cao’s attention to Hebei affairs, and I believe that the three prefectures in Hebei are always more important than a small Wancheng!” Seeing that after Jia Xu said that Cao Cao might have other plans, Then he fell into a pensive look, Qin Xu scratched his head and said with a wry smile.

"No, my lord, don't worry too much! If someone Cao really made up his mind to take down the thorn in Wancheng, with the [-] Bingzhou cavalry in Bingzhou who captured Yuan Tan in his hands to frighten Hebei, Wancheng I'm afraid it's just scabies in his eyes!" Jia Xu seemed to suddenly think of something, suddenly frowned, and said with some hesitation: "Perhaps, Xu understands what Cao A is hiding."

"What?" Qin Xu asked hastily.

"Xu almost miscalculated this time. Thanks to what my lord said just now, Xu has some ideas." Jia Xu chuckled and said, "Our guesses are all based on the contents of this letter, which is what Cao Cao knows. But what if...Cao Cao didn't know that the Xiliang soldiers who once had the hatred of seizing the city and the humiliation of defeating General Lu would choose to surrender to our army?"

"Wen He is saying... Cao Cao's several plans with deep intentions are actually more like what we were worried about before?" Qin Xu slapped his head, and Jia Xu's words were like a basin The cold water poured down on his head, but it made someone from Qin suddenly sober up, and said: "In other words, maybe Cao Cao also took a fancy to these [-] Xiliang iron cavalry, whether it's the intention to force surrender or take Wancheng by force What he has to beware of is also worrying that someone will steal the way from behind, or because a small Wancheng is fighting to the death with our army, someone else will take advantage of it? Yes, yes, relatively As far as our army is concerned, Cao Cao, in addition to facing the turmoil in Hebei and the counterattack of Liu Biao's army like us, must always be on guard against the Zhang leader in Hanzhong and the two Xiliang who are either coveting the land of Jingzhou, or wanting to attack. We want to take advantage of the chaos, and we are even more worried that we will directly copy his back when he uses troops! This is how much information is revealed, making us unable to understand his real intentions, and we dare not attack Wancheng. There is a change in the army, and we will not go all out against Hebei, we only need to wait for him to deal with Wancheng, and then I will wake up, maybe it is already too late?"

"My lord is right!" Jia Xu said with a smile on his face, "Actually, the one who is most worried about Wancheng's premature change is not me, but Cao Cao. Seeing that someone Cao suddenly used this time to separate, he should have thought of it a long time ago, a death penalty! A letter from someone here ordered Yingying to send to Wancheng, telling them to deal with Cao Cao, and they must not fight lightly to damage their strength. This is the most important thing, other matters such as who will be surrendered and who will not be surrendered will be left to the lord, anyway, it will lead to the same goal by different routes, so General Lu will not embarrass the lord too much."

"Wenhe..." Since this unexpected incident was a false alarm, Qin Xu breathed a sigh of relief.As for Jia Xu, who likes to clean himself up first in everything, Qin Xu is also speechless. It is difficult to get an excuse from this poisonous man, and there is only a wry smile.

In Qin Xu's mansion.The last time, in order to propose marriage to the two daughters of the Qin family, Cao Cao came to show his "sincerity" and it was the eldest son Cao Ang who had a "friendship" with Cai Yan.Qin Xu was once impressed by the grandeur and heart of this hero with special hobbies.But this time, I thought I could see again the eldest son of the Cao family who felt very different from Cao Cao and really made people feel bad, but unexpectedly, although the person who came this time was also an "acquaintance", he was much better than Cao Ang's. The identity, however, also allowed Qin Xu to confirm Cao Cao's intention guessed under Jia Xu's "induction" from another aspect, and it probably hit the mark.

Zhang Miao!Because of Lu Bu's successful entry into Qingzhou, Cao Cao focused his attention on Lu Bu in the east and Chang'an in the west. Although his dislike for some people was deepening, he hadn't had time to have the "opportunity" like those in history. Generally speaking, Chen Gong, who was wandering in the rivers and lakes, had a gap to persuade him to turn against him because of the massacre and waiting for famous people in Yanzhou.Therefore, although it is still because Zhang Miao is quite close to famous people in Yanzhou and has a good personal relationship with Lu Bu, and the original friendship with Cao Cao is gradually weakening, it is also because of the lack of this opportunity that he has not yet turned against him. .Cao Cao is used to being a nostalgic person. Although his ideas with Zhang Miao are becoming more and more at odds with each other, he can't forget the kindness he had with Zhang Miao in the past. At the mouth, arrange a high-ranking vacant position and send it to Qingzhou from afar. By giving Lu Bu the opportunity to win Sun Zhixi, on the one hand, there will be a chance for Zhang Miao's guards to find out the truth of Lu Bu's army, and secondly, it is not impossible. Out of sight, out of mind.

"What are you doing stupidly? There are no rules, and I haven't seen your uncle Meng Zhuo yet! In the past, Meng Zhuo, Uncle Zhi Tong and your father were also acquainted! This time, come to congratulate a certain grandson, don't be rude!" Qin Xu said He had just returned to the mansion, and when he realized that the envoy sent by Cao Cao was actually Zhang Miao, Lu Bu cast a displeased look and snorted.Since having Lu Chen, Lu Bu's family is like Cai Yong back then, as if they wanted to take root in the Qin Mansion, and Lu Bu even spent all his time helping Mrs. Yan take care of Lu Lingqi during the confinement. In the name of son, she was tired of being in the Qin residence, and when she saw Lu Chen, she hugged her as if she was a baby, and she didn't know how many times she was stared at by the three wives for no reason.God knows how this world's most powerful general learned to serve confinement.But the left and right are only separated by a street, and the side doors of the two families even face each other, so it is convenient to go back and forth. Boss Lu is Qin Xu's father-in-law and his boss, and even if Qin Xu has occasional slander, he can only let it go. .

"No! Qin Xu has met Uncle Meng Zhuo!" Lv Bu scolded him for no reason, so Qin Xu could only let it go and slandered his father-in-law and Lao Tzu in history. Speaking of loyalty, he met Zhang Miao in a well-regulated manner and stood aside.

"The envoy of Qin has broken Zhang!" Zhang Miao had a peaceful temper and did not receive Qin Xu's full salute. He smiled and avoided half of his body. Seeing Lu Chen whisper a few words in Zhang Miao's ear, Zhang Miao's face immediately became a little excited, and he turned sideways to stare at Qin Xu for a long while, making Qin Xu sigh inwardly at the weakness of his body. The father who has never met, has a wide range of acquaintances...
