We agreed that you, a weak strategist, would fight against three heroes by yourself?

Now Zhang Xiu already knew that every night, the sergeants around Cao Cao would take Zou away.

Zhang Xiu did not blame Zou for his head.

The other party is his aunt, but after all, she is just a woman!

What can a woman resist against certain things?

And the source of all this is because of Cao Cao.

Full of anger piling up in his chest, Zhang Xiu wished he could just pick up his sword and kill Cao Cao.

However, he did not act immediately.

That night, Zhang Xiu visited Jia Xu in person.

As soon as he entered the door, he knelt down directly in front of Jia Xu with a sad expression.

"General, why is this?"

Jia Xu was a little confused. Zhang Xiu visited him at night. He was studying at his desk at night. For no reason, the other party knelt down in front of him.

This situation made Jia Xu instantly realize that something was wrong.

Something happened?

Now he has advised Zhang Xiu to seize the city and surrender to Cao Cao, and everything has been fine in recent days.

The sudden change in front of him made Jia Xu's heart skip a beat.

Zhang Xiu treated him like an elder, and he regarded him more or less as a descendant. When Zhang Xiu was in this situation, Jia Xu couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"Mr. Wenhe, thief Cao, you have insulted me too much!"

The tall and thick man was prostrate on the ground, with muscles all over his body, a ferocious face, and tearful eyes.

When Jia Xu heard this, he quickly helped him up.

"General, please stand up. Let's tell you slowly what happened!"

After hearing Jia Xu's question, Zhang Xiu stood up and trembled all over.

"So that sir, I will know that my uncle treated me well. Even if he dies, I will support him and make him his wife, just like my mother!"

"Master advised me to surrender the city and surrender to the traitor Cao Cao. I have no other intention!"

"Damn that thief Cao, he insulted me too much!"

"He He……"

"I just found out today that since the thief Cao entered Wancheng, he asked the sergeant to take my aunt to his house every night."

"You are bullying my uncle and humiliating me, Zhang Xiu!"

…

As he spoke, Zhang Xiu's whole body trembled, his eyes flickered, and his eyes seemed to be filled with murderous intent.

He wished he could cut Cao Cao into two pieces.

Jia Xu was stunned!

I never thought there would be such a situation.

He never thought that Cao Cao would do such a thing. In his eyes, Cao Cao should be a hero of the world.

He was able to manage his business from the governor of one county to the place where he now serves the emperor and supports two states.

In the structure of the Han Dynasty, Cao Cao's influence must be extremely obvious.

Just, this kind of thing?

In fact, for Jia Xu, she was still somewhat speechless.

What Cao Cao did was too unethical.

Nothing more than a woman!

Now that Zhang Xiu has surrendered the city, it is enough for him not to treat his family well, but he still has to do such a thing.

This means not taking Zhang Xiu seriously at all!

A woman is small, and the key point is her attitude towards Zhang Xiu.

Zhang Xiu was so angry, on the one hand because of this incident, and on the other hand, presumably because of fear in his heart!

Because if you don't even care about this matter.

Even if he surrendered to Cao Cao, how good would Cao Cao's treatment of him be after arriving at Cao Cao's camp?

Zhang Xiu couldn't see the future, so he was naturally scared!

Jia Xu couldn't help but sigh when he thought of Cao Cao.

You surnamed Cao can't stand it.

When you take Zhang Xiu back to Xuchang, even if you are eyeing a woman, what can Zhang Xiu say then?

There won't be anything as embarrassing as it is now.

"Sir, Xiu, how can you bear it?"

Zhang Xiu clenched his fists and couldn't help but look in the direction of Cao Cao with his eyes, as if he was trying to penetrate the door wall.

Jia Xu narrowed his eyes.

In this situation, he and Zhang Xiu were one and the same. Jia Xu could understand Zhang Xiu's worries.

But what Cao Cao did was unreasonable.

That being the case, he already had a decision in his mind.

"General, don't be anxious. This matter must not be leaked. The general can't show anything this time. Just pretend that he doesn't know about it."

Jia Xu spoke up.

Zhang Xiu was a little stunned, pretending not to know?

How to pretend not to know? Does Mr. Trouble intend to let himself endure it like this?

"gentlemen!"

His voice was a little hoarse, Jia Xu glanced at him, and then continued to speak.

"General, don't worry, I agree with you, but you shouldn't be anxious about this matter!"

"Cao Cao has an army of 150,000 troops outside. Now that the opponent is inside the city, he only has 3,000 guards. There is room for us to show off!"

Jia Xu spoke slowly.

"This time, the general can summon his confidants and make various arrangements. Although Wancheng is now handed over, the general's reputation among his subordinates still exists."

"The general only needs to speak frankly to his confidants, and when the time comes, he can take action. If Cao Cao can be killed in one fell swoop, the general can use this to regain control of Wancheng!"

"Besides, regardless of whether Cao Cao is dead or not, the army outside the city will inevitably be in chaos. When that happens, the general will lead the army to charge and kill, and the enemy army will naturally be defeated!"

"With this, the general can take advantage of the situation and attack in the direction of Xuchang!"

"At that time, I predict that the princes from all over the country will not sit idly by and ignore the situation. Even if Cao Cao escapes, Cao Cao's army will definitely be hurt by it."

"The princes in this world will definitely not miss such a good opportunity!"

…

Jia Xu slowly explained, while Zhang Xiu's eyes were shining brightly.

That night.

After Zhang Xiu walked out of the house where Jia Xu was, he raised his eyes and looked up at the sky. Stars twinkled in the deep sky.

The greedy wolf star shines brightly, and there seems to be a murderous intention in the sky.

The breeze floats.

Zhang Xiu narrowed his eyes.

He didn't have much thought at first, so joining Cao Cao might be a good way out.

In the troubled times before us, the princes are rising together.

Originally, he had the idea of ​​creating a great reputation in such troubled times, but sometimes things in life are not smooth sailing.

After his uncle died, he could not enter from left to right.

In desperation, he could only join forces with Liu Biao of Jingzhou and become a barrier for the other party to resist the north, like a dog on a leash.

Who could want this?

And this time Cao Cao entered Wancheng, it was precisely because he didn't have many choices that he surrendered to the opponent.

Thinking like this, Zou's face appeared in Zhang Xiu's mind.

There were some thoughts that he just kept buried in his heart.

In fact, since he followed his uncle Zhang Ji, when he saw Zou for the first time, that woman's voice and smile had been in his heart for a long time.

But due to reasons, the other party is Zhang Ji's first wife after all, and is his Zhang Xiu's aunt in name.

That throb has been buried in Zhang Xiu's heart since then.

Later, when his uncle Zhang Ji died, Zhang Xiu also had thoughts in his mind.

The reason why he treats her like a mother is because his feelings for this woman have been different from the beginning.

It's just a matter of etiquette.

There are some things that he can only keep buried in his heart.

Of course I had thought about it, but Zhang Xiu didn't dare to do it.

However, what he didn't expect was that even though the Zou family was so protected by him, in the end, he would succumb to Cao Cao because of the Wancheng incident.

Because of this, the first moment he learned about this incident, the anger in his chest could no longer be suppressed.

Just thinking that the lives of so many soldiers under his command depended on him, Zhang Xiu could only suppress this impulse.

And now I have received guidance from my husband.

The depression in Zhang Xiu's heart finally had a place to express itself.

This change of situation is not a different kind of opportunity.

If it goes as expected, from today on, Zhang Xiu may be able to lay a foundation in this troubled world.

The wind was very cold tonight, but it made Zhang Xiu's mind a little hot.

After pausing for a moment, Zhang Xiu ran straight to the house where his confidant Hu Che'er was without any delay.

at the same time.

Not long after Zhang Xiu left, Tan Ma from the baggage camp quietly left the city under the cover of night.

That night!

In the baggage camp, Xi Yu got the news not long after.

Zhang Xiu moved!

Zhang Xiu finally knew some things.

Inside the tent of the baggage camp, the lights flickered.

At this moment, Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun were both gathered next to Xi Yu, and they also learned about Zhang Xiu's unusual movements.

At this moment, Zhao Yun glanced at Xi Yu.

"Sir, Zhang Xiu has already learned about this matter. Now, just as Mr. expected, Zhang Xiu can't sit still. What should we do now?"

Zhao Yun's mood was a little complicated.

Is what Zhang Xiu did wrong?

In Zhao Yun's view, this is human nature, and it was Cao Cao who went too far. If it were Zhao Yun, he might have the same idea as Zhang Xiu!

What's more, he and Master Zhang Xiu came from the same sect, and Zhao Yun still had some good feelings and friendship for Zhang Xiu.

Now that the other party has to face a person like Mr. Zhao Yun is still somewhat worried about Zhang Xiu.

Huang Zhong didn't have too many ideas. Now everything was as expected by his husband. For the rest, he only had to follow his arrangements.

"Not urgent!"

Xi Yu's expression didn't change much. Now Zhang Xiu knew what happened, but since the other party didn't rush to explode immediately, everything was still under control.

The outcome of Wancheng, in the final analysis, affects the whole body.

This result was caused by Lao Cao himself.

Moreover, in Xi Yu's view, taking advantage of this opportunity, Cao Cao must be made aware of the losses in this battle.

So, he was in no hurry to do anything.

He could naturally suppress this matter before it happened before it happened.

However, Xi Yu didn't want to do this.

Old Cao was too promiscuous. From taking Xuzhou to catering to the emperor, Cao Cao had everything going smoothly.

The situation at hand is still under his control, but who can say with certainty what will happen in the future!

Just as he doesn't know, will he still stand with Cao Cao in the future?

Will Cao Cao still firmly believe in Xi Yu in the future?

No one knows everything.

"Sir, what are you waiting for now? Now that we know that Zhang Xiu will do something strange, why don't we kill this matter directly!"

Huang Zhong asked.

The words came out of his mouth instinctively.

Xi Yu glanced at the other party: "Old Huang, some things cannot be rushed, and we cannot just take them at face value!"

"You have to look at the long term!" Xi Yu didn't explain much.

After telling the two of them to continue to be prepared, the rest was waiting for the Wancheng incident to happen.

This time, it was not only a lesson to Cao Cao, but also a lesson to that guy Dian Wei.

It sounded a wake-up call to the entire Cao camp.

…

The night is very deep, and some people are destined to have trouble sleeping tonight.

When Cao Cao was in the high tent, forgetting his love and singing, Zhang Xiu had already gathered his confidants together with a dark face.

After telling all the confidants exactly what happened, Hu Cheer and others were filled with indignation.

They are Zhang Xiu's subordinates. Cao Cao did this to insult Zhang Xiu, and naturally he also insulted them.

After surrendering to the other party, if Cao Cao could even treat Zhang Xiu like this, let alone treat them later.

Zou's matter is not a big deal.

But the interests involved in this matter are not that simple.

In today's era, most of the relationships between the lord and his subordinates are prosperous and destructive.

Hu Cheer and others are not counselors, they are generals. This situation is naturally more obvious.

If it were a counselor, changing the sect would not have a great impact on them, but if it were a general, the result would be different.

The paths for upward promotion are different for the two.

There are many options for counselors to perform meritorious service. They only need to make political achievements. It doesn't matter who they work for.

But a general can only go into battle to kill the enemy and achieve meritorious service.

Although Hu Che'er was attracted by Cao Cao, he also knew that he was not the only one in the world, and he was not like Lu Bu.

You have no right to be treated differently!

There are countless generals under Cao Cao's command, and because of Zhang Xiu, even if he surrenders to the other side, he will be feared in the future.

Then the chances of this life will be affected by this.

Without much thought, Hu Che'er and others had already chosen to stand with Zhang Xiu, not to mention Jia Xu's plan this time.

Even a resourceful person like Jia Xu has already made his choice, so they have nothing to hesitate about.

"General, what do we do now?"

Hu Che'er asked aloud, and someone beside him couldn't help but speak directly.

"Let me see, under the cover of night, we might as well kill directly to where the thief Cao is, cut off his head and hang it on a tall building..."

After all, they are all a group of warriors, and there are not many effective suggestions.

Zhang Xiu has discussed it with Jia Xu before, and the current situation cannot be rushed, and it may not even attract Cao Cao's attention.

After all, there are still 150,000 troops stationed outside Wancheng.

"Don't be anxious about this, just treat everything as normal!"

As he said that, Zhang Xiu turned his attention to Hu Che'er: "Old Hu, I see that there are two guards around Cao Cao, and there are also three thousand guards in the city this time!"

"If we want to kill Cao Thief in one fell swoop, these people must be dealt with!"

Zhang Xiu naturally wanted to kill Cao Cao directly, so that he would be foolproof.

He didn't want to let Cao Cao escape.

Hearing this, Hu Che'er glanced at Zhang Xiu.

"General, this time I fought against Na Dianwei, and I was slightly defeated. If he didn't have those two magic weapons in his hands, I would have fought him in vain!"

"As for the other person, I think he might be able to serve as Cao's thief's bodyguard."

Hu Che'er's eyes turned, and he suddenly had an idea in his mind.

If these two people can be left without weapons, then the combat power of these two people will inevitably be greatly reduced.

At that time, once the city takes action, even if these two people are aware of it, they will be unable to reverse the situation.

"General, it would be better if..."

Hu Che'er turned around and informed Zhang Xiu of his thoughts. Upon hearing this idea, the latter's expression changed a little.

Zhang Xiu had also competed with Na Dianwei before, and the double halberds in his hands were indeed somewhat troublesome.

According to what Hu Che'er said, taking the opportunity to steal the two men's halberds would inevitably reduce their combat power.

"Okay!" Zhang Xiu nodded.

Hu Cheer smiled after hearing this.

"In that case, starting tomorrow, I will go find Na Dianwei and Xu Chu..."

Hu Che'er had already thought about it. He would first establish a good relationship with these two people, and then invite them to drink. After becoming so familiar with each other, it would not be difficult to steal their weapons.

…

The next day.

In Wancheng, everything was as usual, Cao Cao stayed in the building as usual, Xu Chu and Dian Wei didn't have much thought.

Around noon, Hu Cheer appeared in front of Dian Wei and Xu Chu carrying two jars of wine.

Dian Wei and Xu Chu were both surprised when they saw the person coming.

But when they thought that they would all be Cao Ying's soldiers in the future, the two of them didn't say much.

"General Dian, I was still frightened by the battle outside the city a few days ago. If the general hadn't saved his life, I might have died outside the city!"

Hu Cheer greeted Dian Wei warmly.

When Dian Wei heard this, he also smiled.

"Your strength is not bad, just a little bit worse than mine."

Xu Chu next to him didn't have the slightest expression on his face. Thinking of Dian Wei's horse riding out from beside him that day, he felt a little regretful.

He is not much worse than Dian Wei. If he had gone to battle earlier, maybe he would be the one who became famous in Wancheng this time.

It's just that if you miss some things, you will miss them.

At this time, Hu Che'er followed Xu Chu and talked enthusiastically. They were both rough and arrogant men.

Xu Chu and Dian Wei were not too wary of the visitors, and with Hu Cheer taking the initiative to make friends, the relationship between the three of them seemed to become familiar in an instant.

"General, this is the good wine I brought. I will keep you two drunk today!"

Hu Cheer entertained Xu Chu and Dian Wei. Xu Chu did not refuse, but Dian Wei was suddenly a little dazed.

He suddenly remembered that his husband seemed to have said that if someone invited him to drink in Wancheng, he should be more cautious.

Thinking of these words, Dian Wei felt excited all over.

Just seeing that Xu Chu and Hu Che'er were already drinking, Dian Wei looked at the wine in front of him again, but he still couldn't hold himself back.

At this time, he heard Hu Che'er smiling at him again: "Isn't General Dian not good at drinking?"

As soon as he said this, the smile on Hu Cheer's face became more obvious.

It was as if he had learned something remarkable, that such a brave general could not drink alcohol!

In fact, this kind of thing is nothing, but for a person like Dian Wei, it is still a bit exciting after all.

"What are you talking about! You guy, come on, come on, let me show you my drinking capacity today!"
