Chapter 41 (33)
"Military advisor, do we really have to go all the way to Xuchang, I have a murderous feud with Cao Cao, how can he tolerate me", Zhang Xiu said with a pale face, in fact, he still cares a lot about Jia Xu Xunyou's friendship in his heart, but now he is not as good as before, and he dare not mention Xunyou's name
"If Cao Cao doesn't have the capacity to accommodate people, how can he control the Seven Tricks of the Central Plains, how can he chase the Central Plains", Jia Xu didn't even look at Zhang Xiu, just looked at the front coldly, and the tiger's eyes flashed a trace of unwillingness, as well as endless cold
He Jia Xu doesn't feel that he is an omnipotent god, and he is not a person who can't afford to lose, but he is really a little unwilling in the battle of Xiangyang, and his savings for many days were directly destroyed by Huang Zhong's birth, and he almost lost his life, a good Huang Hansheng, a good Jingzhou No. 1 iron wall, if there is an afterlife, I will definitely compete with you
Jia Xu's words made Zhang Xiu silent for a while, now all kinds of gossip are singing the praises of Cao Cao's clever calculations, endure humiliation, and now everyone knows that Cao Cao used a plan to lure the enemy into the depths, and in one fell swoop surrounded Yuan Shao in the north, Ma Chao in the northwest, Sun Ce and himself in the south, defeated the four princes of the world, and defeated the main force of all the forces in the vicinity of the Central Plains in one fell swoop
Hopefully, I really think too much, Zhang Xiu sighed in his heart, and said, the battle of Xiangyang directly buried his ambition one by one, no soldiers, no food, and was seriously injured, and dominating one side has become a big joke
A group of people and horses came quickly, and when they saw Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu, they dismounted and bowed, and said loudly, "Welcome to General Zhang and Jia Junshi"
Zhang Xiu's original vigilance suddenly dropped a lot, he subconsciously glanced at Jia Xu, but found that Jia Xu just looked at the front coldly, and did not look at more than a hundred light horses
"Everyone, please get up, I don't know what you're looking for Zhang", Zhang Xiu slowly arched his hand and asked, looking at the 100-person light rider with superb riding skills and neat formation, in fact, Zhang Xiu had already felt bitter in his heart, but he just didn't want to believe it
Sure enough, a group of soldiers frankly said that Xuchang had been waiting for a long time in front of him
Twenty miles away, Man Chong was leading a group of lieutenants to wait outside the camp, and there were 30,000 horses stationed here
Looking at the favored arch of greetings, for a while, Zhang Xiu felt a little full of feelings, once felt that the Central Plains must have its own place, and the small Yuzhou was not enough to accommodate himself, at least there must be nine counties in Jingzhou to show his strength
But his ambition was slapped hard by Huang Zhong, Jingzhou was not something he could set foot in, and came to Yuzhou, once built a strong Xuchang, resisted Lu Bu's invasion, and perfectly provided Guandu support, and now he is one of the seven tricks of the Central Plains in the south at all times, and he is just a small Xuchang Taishou, perhaps, he is in the Central Plains where there are many talents, and even a Taishou is not enough to do it
Zhang Xiu's shock is not unreasonable, now Cao Cao pursues Yuan Shao, the era of the unification of the Central Plains has arrived, and because of Cao Cao's Taoguang Yang, Jing Yang in the south, and Xiliang in the northwest have now lost the strength to peep, in order to favor the lord of Yuzhou, he should have enjoyed happiness in Xuchang, but he was stationed thirty miles outside the city, always vigilant in Jingzhou, or rather, always peeping at Jingzhou, waiting for the fighter plane, in the seven orifices of the Central Plains, Xun Yu controlled the division, and the full favor grasped Yuzhou, Xun Yu, Liu Ye, Cheng Yu, rampant in Yanzhou Xuzhou, Guo Jia is even more mysterious, they are all a generation of strange people, and these strange people have gathered together to serve Cao Cao, He also wanted to compete with Cao Cao, and now that he thinks about it, he really feels a little unscrupulous
"I've seen General Zhang and Jia Junshi, I don't know what happened when the two of them came to Xuchang", Man Chong took Zhang Xiu's reaction into his eyes, but asked pretending not to care
"I came to worship the Son of Heaven", Jia Xu saw Zhang Xiu in a daze, and couldn't help but say indifferently
The four words of worshiping the Son of Heaven directly woke up Zhang Xiu, he arched his hand at the full favor, and said, "I heard that Corporal Cao Cheng Lixian, Zhang Xiu came to serve the work of dogs and horses, and I hope not to give up."
Today's Son of Heaven is just an ornament, rather than getting a bright name and being placed under house arrest in Xuchang, it is better to directly find out that hypocrisy is no longer suitable for him
"The prime minister and the Son of Heaven will be overjoyed when they hear the arrival of the two", Man Chong's expression eased a little, as if he didn't hear Zhang Xiu's words of surrender, Man Chong just invited Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu to enter Xuchang
As rebels in the past, they still came to defect alone, Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu received countless white eyes and cold eyes, and even a lot of hateful eyes, white eyes and cold eyes came from a group of new officials in the imperial court, and hatred came from some Cao family children and Wancheng battle
The Son of Heaven personally met Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu, directly skipped the former identities of the two, and set up a banquet for them, in the palace
The favor of the Son of Heaven made a group of civil and military officers can only smile on their faces, and many people are even more curious about the personal companionship of Man Pet, as the nominal No. 2 person in Yuzhou, in fact, he is the leader of Xuchang, Man Pet has never toasted to anyone, even if it is the Son of Heaven, and today, he actually toasted to Cao Cao's enemies in person, and there are really a lot of cats in it
Zhang Xiu smiled a little absent-mindedly, and guessed Cao Cao's reaction in his heart, and entered Xuchang, he felt a little frightened step by step, because this place was not only unfamiliar, but he had hardly met a kind look
"Prime Minister Cao Cheng has arrived", with a shout, Cao Cao, who was dressed in strong armor, strode into the palace under the escort of Xu Chu and broke into the banquet directly
The sudden arrival of Cao Cao and Xu Chu led hundreds of tiger guards made everyone present startled, and even the Son of Heaven was a little overwhelmed, because Cao Cao did not salute as respectfully as before, and he didn't even look at him, and walked directly to Zhang Xiu
With Cao Cao's coming, all the officials were very conscious of giving way, and lest Cao Cao be angry with him, the speed of the way made Zhang Xiu's heart directly to the throat, his hand had been raised, there was a tendency to put it on the hilt of the sword, but it stiffened in mid-air
Xu Chu squinted and stood behind Cao Cao, only two meters away from Zhang Xiu, and Cao Cao was only one meter away from Zhang Xiu at this time, Xu Chu's huge body exuded a substantial violent and murderous aura, directly locking Zhang Xiu, as if as long as Zhang Xiu moved, he would be torn apart directly
The temperature at the scene dropped instantly, and a cold wind blew quickly, but in the late autumn season, it brought the icy wind of winter
Zhang Xiu's heart was suffocated, he wanted to turn around to look at Jia Xu, because only Jia Xu could give him a sense of security, but he was shocked to find that he couldn't move, he could feel Xu Chu's endless killing intent, that was a real killing intent against him, not an ordinary deterrent, and it is rumored that Dian Wei and Xu Chu are iron brothers who are as close as flesh and blood
And the Cao Cao in front of him who seemed to be three inches, the complicated eyes made him instantly dizzy, Cao Cao was short, only less than one meter seven, far worse than Zhang Xiu, a big man in the northwest, and this is far worse than not only in the bones, Cao Cao does not have the power of a general like Zhang Xiu, but the indifferent Cao Cao at this time, Cao Cao with a complicated expression at this time, but in an instant, turned into a majestic peak, which seemed unattainable, making him tremble
Draw the sword and swear to fight to the death, but he may not be able to leave anything, good name, life, will not have, because this is Lao Cao's lair, if he does not draw the sword, he will not even have the remaining sense of security and confidence, at this time, he is really cold
At this time, Cao Cao also hesitated in his heart, as soon as he heard that Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu had arrived in Xuchang, his heart trembled, Zhang Xiu, a first-class general, but he had a hatred of killing his son like the sea, this hatred was not shared, this was the worst defeat in his life, for a while, he even lost his ambition to dominate the world, and even his own son could not shelter, what kind of bullshit is he The overlord of the Central Plains, Jia Xu, even the god-level strategists who are recognized by the seven tricks of the Central Plains, strategizing and winning thousands of miles away, the strategy is precise and ruthless, and no one can beat it, he seems to see that he has opened another world
In that world, he seemed to feel that Cao Ang was smiling at him, thanking him for avenging him, and Jia Xu's arrival made up for it, his expanding ambition and territory, the Central Plains Seven Tricks were invincible, but once he captured Hebei, he needed more god-level strategists to take care of him and rectify it, Jia Xu, who was born in the northwest, happened to be the best candidate in the northwest
Kill Zhang Xiu, no one present will dare to stop him, everything will be as if nothing happened, but this may make Jia Xu feel cold, and the reputation he has worked hard to manage will be ruined, but if he doesn't kill him, how can he be worthy of his son, how can he be worthy of Dian Wei, and how can he be worthy of the souls of the city in the first battle of Wancheng
The camera was playback, with Xu Chu, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, and Guo Jiaxunyu, Cao Cao, who was chasing Yuan Shao, heard the news of Zhang Xiu's coming to vote, and quickly held a military meeting
This is Guo Jia's rare meeting without sleeping, but he is drinking stuffy wine, looking at the plain wine in his hand in a daze, drinking it, and spitting it back into the pot, on the table are jade cups that have been crushed by him
Xun Yu wanted to speak and stopped, looked at Guo Jia many times, but was directly ignored by Guo Jia, Guo Jia did not speak, there was a cold silence present, Zhang Liao and Xu Huang lowered their heads and were silent, Xu Chu gently stroked the Huoyun long knife in his hand, as if holding a peerless beauty
Cao Cao also fell silent, he looked at Guo Jia, and gave Guo Jia expectant glances many times, but he couldn't receive a response, so he had to look at Xun Yu
"Lord, we should focus on the overall situation", Xun Yu groaned and said a simulated answer, and rarely responded positively
Cao Cao was silent, he looked at Zhang Liao and Xu Huang who looked up when they heard the words, the two looked at each other, Xu Huang wanted to speak and stopped, but was stopped by Zhang Liao with his eyes, so he could only lower his head again
"Fengxiao, is this embroidery killed, or stayed", Cao Cao was silent when he saw this, and still handed over the decision-making power to Guo Jia, and there was a little tremor in his voice, he really wanted to kill Zhang Xiu, but there seemed to be an inexplicable force in the dark to prevent him from saying this, he knew that once he made a statement, everything was a foregone conclusion
"Don't ask me about this, if I am in Guandu, they will definitely not have the life to enter Xuchang", Guo Jia glanced at Cao Cao coldly, turned around and left the camp
Guo Jia's unreasonableness did not cause everyone's unhappiness, because everyone knows that Guo Jia, who initiated the anger, even Cao Cao can only concede three points, and Guo Jia, who has always been only cynical, rarely gets angry, and everyone present also knows that in order to rectify Yuzhou and be at ease, ghosts will never have any false reputation
When Cao Cao heard this, the anger in his heart suddenly rose to the sky, he slapped the case, and said loudly, "Zhongkang, follow me to Xuchang to avenge my son"
Cao Cao's anger was not directed at Guo Jia, just as Guo Jia's coldness just now was not directed at Cao Cao's glance, they all seemed to see through the void in an instant and saw another figure
Zhang Liao and Xu Huang suddenly became anxious when they heard this, and hurriedly gave Xun Yu a look for help, compared to Cao Cao and Guo Jia, who had a skin pain with Zhang Xiujia Xu, they did not have a deep friendship with Dian Wei, and they also knew that the death and injury on the battlefield were inevitable, and they would not change because of your identity
Seeing this, Xun Yu could only smash Guo Jia's wine jug on the ground just now, and sighed and said, "Seven tricks in hand, I have it in the Central Plains, and I will compete in the world, at this time."
The loud noise quickly caught the attention of Cao Cao and Xu Chu, who was in the midst of excitement, but both of them just stopped and left quickly
Kill, or stay, Cao Cao's heart swayed, his heart swayed again after seeing Zhang Xiu's hesitation and Jia Xu's still indifference, he returned to the military meeting just past, and the figures of Guo Jia and Xun Yu, who waved away, and Xun Yu, who sighed, kept repeating
Killing, not killing himself is not a good lord, let alone a good father
Stay, it's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, to achieve hegemony, it is originally to be able to do what others can't, this person, many times, still endures
The scene was dead silent, no one dared to speak, and no one would offend Prime Minister Cao Cheng, who is now the world's might, for the sake of two generals
Cao Cao's originally complicated eyes gradually disappeared, and the rest slowly turned into bloodthirsty
A burst of birdsong flew by, as if it was a generation of Tianjiao Guo Jia was rarely worn at this time on the gorgeous Confucian costume, at this time he jumped off the jade carving, came to Cao Cao, indifferently glanced at Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu, and handed Cao Cao a short sword
It's over, it's all over, not to mention the ambition to dominate the industry, let alone the hegemony, even the wife and children hidden in Wuguan can't escape the tragic fate, who in the world doesn't know, the person who can completely control Cao Cao is Guo Fengxiao, who is known as a ghost talent
The person Guo Jia wants to kill, Cao Cao will never protect, the person Guo Jia wants to protect, Cao Cao will never kill, this truth-like existence, even if it is far away in Xiliang, Zhang Xiu has already heard of it
Cao Cao trembled, looked at Guo Jia's eyes full of murderous intent, and took the short sword tremblingly, but his heart settled down in an instant, because after Guo Jia handed over the sword, he turned around and left, showing a rare jump in the air
Cao Cao slowly drew out his sharp sword, his right hand trembled uncontrollably, and the few seconds of drawing the sword seemed to be as long as a century
