Chapter 8 Crooked melons and cracked dates
"This is exactly what Guo Jia is thinking about for Ming Gong," Guo Jia straightened his body and said: "Zhang Xiu is not very famous before Zhang Ji's death. At most, he achieved the name of the Gun King of the Northland under Dong Zhuo, but he was just a slightly famous general. Zhang Ji died, and although Zhang Xiu commanded his subordinates, he no longer had the power of Zhang Ji in the world! β
Therefore, even if Zhang Xiu got Jia Xu, he still did not have the capital to fight Liu Biao. In this case, it is the best policy to temporarily live in Liu Biao's place and then cast the main party. But this embroidery is not out of the ordinary. β
Zhang Xiujun set out from Wancheng, Nanyang, and took the road of muddy and disrepair after snow. Along the way, it is necessary to maintain the physical strength of the army, and be ready to guard against Liu Biao's attack from behind and deal with our army at any time. In addition, according to Zhang Xiu's claim, he wanted to attack Yuan Shu. Then counting the drag of carrying grain and grass to Huainan, it will take at least 12 days to reach the western boundary of Runan. But Zhang Xiujun arrived at the western boundary of Runan on the 8th, why is this? β
The people present all fell into deep thought, and Xun You, who was proficient in logistics, took the lead in speaking: "Zhang Xiujun must have reduced the grain and grass he carried, and his grain and grass cannot be supplied out of Runan at all!" β
Speaking of which, everyone present has already understood.
"That's right, Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu planned it from the beginning, to get grain in Runan and annex Liu Pi's troops in Runan. That's why they are not in a hurry to send you a watch to Ming Gong. And this watch is not given for free, just as a foreshadowing. β
"If Guo Jia didn't guess wrong, Zhang Xiujun's second envoy should have arrived in Xuchang, or they had already come to two envoys today. One sent this invitation, and the other was estimated to be waiting for Runan's good news, and then the second invitation was presented to Ming Gong. β
Guo Jia believes that Ming Gong and everyone present can already guess what the content is, and Guo Jia is inconvenient to say more. But in the current situation, we must re-examine Zhang Xiu, whether it is a blessing or a curse, it is estimated that Zhang Xiu's thoughts are in the middle of it......"
β¦β¦
In December 196 A.D. (lunar calendar), that is, the first year of Jian'an, Zhang Xiujun, who was wandering in the Huai River valley of the Han River, passed through Runan and was stopped by the garrison Cao army. Fighting broke out, but there were few casualties. First of all, the commander of the Cao army and Li Tong in the western boundary of Runan was captured, and the rest of the people did not dare to move. Then there was a large-scale mutiny in Cao Hong's department, the main force of the Cao army, and there were as many as 40,000 or 50,000 mutiners, accounting for more than half of Cao Hong's department. Cao Hong's army was defeated and surrounded, and then he was captured, and the remnants fled.
Zhang Xiujun defeated Cao's army, won Runan, and incorporated all the troops of Liu Pigong and Gong, and the momentum was great. After that, Zhang Xiu appointed Liu Pi and Gong Du as generals, and led the original people. Hu Che'er is also a partial general, and Zhang Xian and Lei Xu are generals. The original general Pei Yuanshao made meritorious service in front of the battle, and had another merit, leading the tooth goalkeeper and leading the scout of Zhang Xiujun. In addition, Zhang Xiu also temporarily used the thieves Kou Liaohua and Zhou Cang to defect to the two people as the chief of the song, and obeyed orders before leaving the account.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, Zhang Xiujun had been living in Runan Tun for nearly a month.
In the palace, the banquet was on a big show, and Zhang Xiu's eight cronies were blowing the sea and drinking.
Pei Yuanshao pinned a horsewhip to his waist and held up wine: "Anyway, Cao Hong's horse is really good, it is said that Cao Cao bought Dawan horses from the Western Regions, there are only ten!" Cao Cao rode one of the best, and the rest was given to the best of his generals. Haha, I never thought in my life that I could ride such a good horse, and this horse has beaten the dozen or so horses I robbed together. Haha, General Jianzhong and General Hu Che'er Hu understand me, send me such a good horse, and do it with General Jianzhong, it's worth it! β
Lei Xu snorted: "What is that horse, how many Dawan horses do we want in the Xiliang Army, look at our Xiliang Iron Horse, most of them are Dawan horses, and the others are sweaty and bloody BMWs, have you seen them?" β
Zhang Xian's eyes widened: "Old Lei, I remember that except for the three Dawan horses at the general's place, we don't have any good horses?" Also, isn't it a Dawan horse or a bloody BMW? β
Lei Xu wanted to cover Zhang Xian's mouth, but he couldn't cover it because he drank too much. In a hurry, he kicked Zhang Xian: "You Gou Ride has a lot to say!" β
Zhang Xian was caught off guard, kicked under the table, couldn't get up, and fell asleep. The crowd burst into laughter.
"Haha, Zhang first poured first, and made a bet with us on who would get drunk first! To-morrow each of you will go to his camp and bring back a jar of wine...... Give your brothers a New Year...... "Gong Du spoke, and he also fell headlong.
Everyone laughed again, and Hu Che'er held a full jar of wine in one hand and put it on the table: "Drink, there is mud (what)!" If you want to talk about horseback riding, you Bo (don't) look at Lao Hu walking all day long, and his riding skills are no worse than your rubbing! β
Zhou Cang smiled: "General Hu's riding skills have just come to see it, and as soon as he got on the horse, he performed a vicious dog pounce on the ground!" β
Hu Che'er was furious when he heard this: "The surname is Zhou, you Khan (also) want to fight with the forehead for another 300 rounds?" β
"I'm afraid you're just a coward!" Zhou Cang rolled up his sleeves and prepared to go: "I don't want to ride a horse, let you have one hand!" β
"Look at the amount and don't discount your other hand!" When Hu Che'er heard this, he stroked the fur clothes on his arms and stepped forward.
Then the two of them are like scoundrels fighting on the street, rolling on the ground, you pull me, you pull my ears, I pull your hair, you pick my nostrils, I kick you down...... There is no general's style at all. Anyway, both of them are rough and thick-skinned people, even if they add their fists and feet, as long as they don't move seriously, it's nothing.
And everyone gave way, and even more so, such as Liu Pi, directly opened the altar to bet: "Hurry up and buy to win, as long as you win, you will send wine, beef and mutton meat, buy and leave!" β
Only Liao Hua calmly looked at the chaotic scene, looking like he was out of the mud and unstained. Slowly walked to the upper seat in front of Jia Xu's case, and said to Jia Xu: "Doctor Jia, you see ...... that."
Jia Xu glanced at Liao Hua gently, smiled and said, "Why did you come to borrow money again?" β
"Doctor Jia still understands me, money is something outside the body, and sure enough, Doctor Jia sees it the most!" Liao Hua instantly changed his flattering face.
Jia Xu's expression was still very gentle: "Your money this month has already been offended, what do you rely on?" β
Liao Hua gritted his teeth, as if he had made a lot of determination: "Then take next month to do it." β
Jia Xu's face became more and more kind: "I remember that your next month's income has been regarded as the interest on this month's account." Alas, if it weren't for Wen Jin's reminder, I, a half-old man, wouldn't have known that there was such a thing as interest. β
"Next month, then!"
"Oh, that's fine. But you take your life seriously, it's time to go on the expedition, don't think that you don't have to pay the bill if you die. β
"Definitely, definitely." I must live past you, a disrespectful poisoner, and if you still don't pay the bill, see how you ask me to collect the debt when you die of old age. Liao Hua viciously slandered.
Later, Liao Hua finally lived to be an old immortal, and he lived past 100 years old, becoming the longest-lived among Zhang Xiu's old ministers. And in real history, he only lived for almost a hundred years.
Maybe it has something to do with Jia Xu's "incentive" today.
Watching Liao Hua happily leave Jia Xu's seat, Zhang Xiu on the first seat grabbed his hair, how can I have such a group of crooked subordinates like cracked jujubes?
At present, there are eight available generals, two Yellow Turbans, three bandits, one Qianghu, and two nobodies, none of whom are normal. Or that normal good generals refuse to follow Zhang Xiu. Fortunately, there is Jia Xu, a top strategist, but he is the only strategist Wenchen.
He sighed helplessly and poured himself a sip of wine. Zhang Xiu got up and walked to the backyard to meet his aunt Zou. It is the Zou family who was fascinated by Cao Cao with beautiful qualifications and charm, and finally lost his eldest son, nephew and Dian Wei, and he almost died.
In addition, by the way, I met my pair of cheap children. That's right, Zhang Xiu already has a son and daughter. The son's name is Zhang Quan, and the daughter's name is Zhang Ruo. It's just that the children have no mother, and Zhang Xiu is now single.
The wife who died early with her memory is virtuous and beautiful, although her appearance is not as good as that of Zou, she knows how to run a family and is considerate and gentle to Zhang Xiu. It's just that this is nothing to do with Zhang Xiu now, nothing to do with him......
Walking into the garden, before entering the backyard, a voice came from behind: "Wenjin stays." β
Now there is only one person who calls Zhang Xiubiao the word except for the Zou family.
"What's the matter with Mr. Wenhe?" Zhang Xiu turned around and faced Jia Xu.
Jia Xu walked in front of Zhang Xiu, did not look at Zhang Xiu, and admired the plum blossoms in the garden by himself: "Since ancient times, plum blossoms must experience a severe cold. But I don't know if there is really the will to swallow heaven and earth and the opportunity to contain the universe? β
Zhang Xiu stared at this poisonous man who didn't look at people, but could understand a person's psychology, and after a long time, he finally sighed: "Mr. Wenhe still knows me." Wen Jin was really confused in his heart, and he didn't know where the road was. There is indeed a mustard, and even the heart of a captive who is unknown to the world cannot be subdued, where do I plot the heart of the world? β
Jia Xu looked harmless to humans and animals, and said in a tone that seemed to be pouting: "Wen Jin is not helpless in his heart, but he is afraid that he will not be able to persevere. It's not that there is really no way to subdue Li Wenda's heart, it's just that he still has scruples. In short, Wen Jin is not out of the question, but he has not made up his mind yet. β
"Wen Jin maintained restraint and neutrality towards Liu Jingsheng, Cao Mengde, and even Yuan Highway, leaving room for maneuver."
"For Liu Jingsheng, he also used the grain and grass in the city, and did not mention revenge."
"To Cao Mengde, although he captured his Runan, he captured his henchmen and generals. However, it conceded the northern part of Runan to prevent a head-on clash with Cao's army. In addition, Haosheng entertained Cao Hong and retained all the officials originally appointed by Cao Cao, posing enough to temporarily borrow Runan. β
"Although the slogan of the crusade against Yuan Highway was shouted, the document has not been officially issued and substantive hostile measures have been taken."
"These all show that Wenjin's determination has not been decided!" Jia Xu earnestly admonished: "Wen Jin can still get peace in a short time, but it definitely can't be for a long time." The situation in the Central Plains is the same as fire and water, Wen Jin wants to follow the trend, or take millet from the fire, it is time to make a real decision. β
"Those who have achieved great things since ancient times must not only have supernatural talents, but also have perseverance!" Without waiting for Jia Xu to speak again, Zhang Xiu preemptively said: "I choose - take millet from the fire." β
In my previous life, I heard a saying that people are forced out, and if you don't force yourself, you don't know how much potential you have. In my previous life, I didn't force myself, I didn't force myself to be in the third year of high school, and I didn't force myself to study English hard. So I only took a score that had just been put on the second line. I didn't force myself to repeat it, and I didn't force myself to practice what I like to the extreme. Learning taekwondo is a half-ass, and he doesn't insist on writing novels, and his feelings are always lost...... Always leave yourself a way out, always give yourself a reason......
So, it became a waste wood......
Then, if you can live it all over again in this life, you will cut off other ways to retreat and no longer look for reasons for yourself. Push yourself to see how far you can go.
β¦β¦
Jia Xu was stunned for a rare moment, and then said with a smile: "I didn't expect Wenjin to have such literary brilliance and such incisive insight." That's great! That's nice! That's right, this is exactly what the old man meant by Wen Jin. Those who have achieved great things since ancient times must not only have supernatural talents, but also have perseverance! Yes, it's enough to be a wise lesson for the ages. β
Nonsense, a thousand years later, Su Shi summed it up, will it be incisive?
"I see, Mr. Wen Jin." Zhang Xiu made a deep sigh.
Hehe, Jia Xu laughed: "Then I'll go and arrange relevant things, once I take this road, there is no turning back." β
"Sir, just do it, Zhang Xiu will definitely not disappoint Mr."
