Jingzhou, Wancheng.
After Cao Cao’s first failed southern expedition against Zhang Xiu, Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao secretly supported Zhang Xiu’s soldiers and military food.
Therefore, Zhang Xiu was able to continue to survive in the cracks, but he never felt safe in his heart.
He was either worried about Cao Cao’s southern expedition, or he was worried that Liu Biao would stab him in the back.
Inside the Taishou Mansion, in the study.
Zhang Xiu sat at the desk with his back straight, and in front of him sat a middle-aged Confucian.
This middle-aged Confucian is the famous ‘poisoner’ Jia Xu.
“Mr. Wen He, Yuan Shao marched into Liyang, raised grain and grass, and gathered an army, which has the meaning of fighting with Cao Cao.”
“Liu Biao garrisoned Fan Cheng, and it seems that he is also going north to threaten Xu Du.”
“We’re in the middle, what should we do?”
After Zhang Xiu finished asking, his eyes stared at Jia Xu, waiting for his words.
Jia Xu smiled indifferently: “Yuan Shao has not sent troops, Cao Cao has not taken action, and the two princes have not yet met in a short time.” ”
“Why should the general be in a hurry?”
“Does the general think that Liu Biao dares to take the lead?”
Zhang Xiu shook his head: “Liu Biao didn’t have the courage to deal with Cao Cao, but for Wancheng, he already coveted it, but he was afraid that I would surrender to Cao Cao, so he didn’t dare to act rashly.” ”
“What should we do if we take advantage of the battle between Cao and Yuan to go north to capture Wancheng?”
Jia Xu’s eyes showed a hint of disdain: “How can Liu Jingsheng have this guts?” ”
“When two powers compete for the position of hegemon in the north, doesn’t the general want to choose one lord and vote for it?”
Zhang Xiu hesitated: “Can’t you continue to divide in Wancheng?” ”
“No!”
Jia Xu shook his head and said, “If my expectations are correct, there will be people from both sides to persuade the general to surrender in the near future.” ”
“This is the general’s last chance, and if you don’t choose one of them, you will offend the two.”
“In the future, no matter who can seize the position of the northern hegemon, Wancheng will be the first place to go south.”
“There is no possibility of good law for generals.”
“So before the North can divide the winner or loser, the general has to make a choice.”
Zhang Xiu paused: “When Yuan Shao occupied the sky in this battle, the location was favorable, and the people were good, but I was from the Western Liang Army, and my uncle and Yuan Shao also had contradictions at the beginning, how could he accept us?” ”
“I’m afraid that Yuan Shao won’t accept us.”
“Sir, is there a way to get Yuan Shao to accept us?”
Jia Xu subconsciously shook his head, and was about to speak, when a sound of hurried footsteps came from outside.
“General Qiyu, someone claims to be Li Fu, the envoy of Yuan Shao in Hebei, does the general want to meet?”
Zhang Xiu was stunned, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.
He just said that he was afraid that Yuan Shaoji would hate, but he didn’t expect that his messenger would come.
“Mr. Wen He, as you expected, Yuan Shao really sent an envoy here.”
“Let’s go, let’s go and meet?”
Jia bowed his head, and the two went out together.
Above the main hall.
Li Fu stood in the center with a defiant face.
His master, Yuan Shao, sits in dozens of counties in four prefectures and carries hundreds of thousands, and everyone in the world knows it.
On the other hand, Zhang Xiu, but the land of a county, the lord of a city, it is already a great gift for him to come, and naturally he will not have a trace of modesty.
As soon as Zhang Xiu entered the main hall, he greeted him with a smile: “Mr. Li Fu came from afar, it was hard. ”
Li Fu arched his hand casually: “The great general is on the emperor’s edict, and he wants to send troops to Xu Capital to kill Cao Thief.” ”
“General Zhang Xiu is a minister of the Han Dynasty, and he should send troops from Wancheng to jointly safeguard the Han Dynasty.”
“I wonder if the general is interested?”
Zhang Xiu felt the pride in Li Fu’s words, forced down the unhappiness in his heart, and said with a smile: “It is the duty of a minister to fight against rebel thieves. ”
“It’s just that when will the general send troops? When to go south? ”
“My Wancheng army is weak and weak, if I take the lead, I am afraid that I will be destroyed immediately, so I have to be cautious.”
Li Fu said, “Within the rest of the month, the general should send troops south. ”
“At that time, the general will send out the troops of Wancheng and attack Xudu with Liu Biao.”
“If a big thing is accomplished, a reward will naturally be a problem.”
“The general used to follow Dong Zhuo and scolded the world, this is an absolutely good thing to do for meritorious service, how can you hesitate?”
The look of displeasure flashed in Zhang Xiu’s eyes, his brows locked, and he did not speak for a long time.
Jia Xu, who had not spoken for a long time, smiled indifferently: “What about Dong Zhuo’s rebel thief and General Zhang Xiu?” ”
“Since there is nothing to do, why do you say that you are guilty and meritorious?”
“Even if he is really guilty, that is also His Majesty’s words, does the great general want to cross the line?”
“Want to emulate his brother Yuan Shu?”
This mocking remark made Li Fu’s face turn red: “Who is Er Nai?” How dare you slander the great general like this? ”
“Are you looking for death?”
Jia Xu stroked his beard and said with a smile: “Could it be in Wancheng, can you take my head?” ”
Li Fu’s face became more victorious, looked at Zhang Xiu, and said coldly: “General Zhang, this person is making wild remarks and insulting the great general.” ”
“Please damn this person, so that I will speak well for the general in front of the great general.”
“Get Xu Du, Feng Marquis Bai Jue is naturally not a problem.”
After Li Fu finished speaking, he looked at Jia Xu with killing intent.
In his opinion, there is no room for hesitation in this choice.
Seeing that Yuan Shao is about to become the hegemon of the north, sweeping the world is just around the corner, who dares to offend him, Yuan Shao’s messenger?
Zhang Xiu’s face showed a trace of haze.
From beginning to end, Li Fu did not respect his meaning at all, and he wanted to kill Jia Xu as soon as he opened his mouth.
He was able to stand in Wancheng thanks to Jia Xu’s merits, how could he do something to him?
If it weren’t for Yuan Shao’s great power now, he really wanted to directly kill the arrogant Li Fu.
Suppressing the anger in his heart, Zhang Xiu said, “Come, invite Mr. Li Fu down.” ”
Li Fu was stunned, and was about to speak, but two soldiers had already invited him down from outside.
At this moment, he calmed down, and his eyes lived up to the arrogance and pride just now.
After he left, Jia said, “If there is a master, there will be a messenger.” ”
“Even a messenger looks down on the general, wouldn’t it be wise to defect to Yuan Shao?”
Zhang Xiu sighed: “But we rebelled against Cao Cao, how can he accept us?” ”
Jia Xu smiled confidently: “If the expectations are good, Cao Cao’s messenger will come immediately.” ”
“The general can rest assured.”
“Huh?”
“How is this possible?”
Zhang Xiu’s words had just landed, and he only heard the sound of hurried footsteps.
“There are people outside who call themselves Qilin talents who come to visit the general.”
“His guards wounded many of us, and now they are surrounded by us.”
“Please punish the military.”
“Qilin talent?”
“Is that Su Wen who provoked the dispute between Wen Marquis Dong Zhuo back then?”
“He actually came?”
Zhang Xiu said with a surprised look.
At that time, he was still in Chang’an City, watching the Western Liang army fall apart and become a scattered sand.
After that, he knew that everything was from Su Wen’s hand, and he was even more jealous of him.
And then Su Wen became famous all over the world, and the legend continued, which made Zhang Xiu remember it even more.
I didn’t expect that he would come to the door today.
Jia Xu bowed his head slightly, and there was a touch of shock in his eyes: “Xu Shao once said: The Qilin talent has the talent of the heavens and the earth, and he knows that he can win the world.” ”
“I didn’t expect this person to be taken under Cao Cao.”
“Qilin chooses the master, it seems that Cao Cao has more hole cards than we thought.”
“Huh?”
“How can Sir be sure that Su Wen has defected to Cao Cao?” Zhang Xiu was puzzled.
Jia Xu smiled: “Yuan Shao knows that he came to win over the general, doesn’t Cao Cao have this heart?” ”
“Qilin talent, famous in the world.”
“How can the general not go to greet him?”
“Yes, that’s exactly how it should be.”
Zhang Xiu got up and strode outside.
