Chapter 22: The Three-Way Alliance
Jiujiang, Shouchun.
It is under the control of Yangzhou, located in the north of the Yangtze River, and is the seat of Anhui Province in later generations.
Jiujiang is located between the Jianghuai River, the land of fish and rice, the people are fertile, and the people under the rule are many simple.
However, when Yuan Shu arrived, his wild conquest and indulgence in the wanton plundering of soldiers and soldiers made the people of Jiujiang counties miserable for a while, and it also made the originally rich and prosperous place sparsely populated.
In Shouchun City, in Yan Mansion.
After listening to the servant's words, Yan Xiang raised his eyebrows slightly, and said in surprise: "Jia Xu? What did he do? ”
"Forget it, bring him in." Yan Xiang waved his hand, not thinking too much.
Not long after, the hall is partial.
Although Jia Xu is over half a hundred years old, his eyes are cunning and sinister.
"I've seen Yan Changshi." Jia Xu saluted respectfully and shouted.
"Ho, Jia Xu Jia Wenhe, everyone in the world calls you a poisoner, I don't know what advice you have when you go to the cold house today?" Yan Xiang snorted coldly and raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Yan Changshi is going to be tormented, and his strategy is not as good as your eleventh and twelfth of Changshi, how dare you afford to give advice." Jia Xu apologized, and then changed his words and said: "But there is one thing about Xu, which is related to your net worth and life in the long history. ”
"Oh~, let's hear it!" Yan Xiang was curious and smiled.
"Changshi, what do you think of Cao Cao?" Jia Xu asked rhetorically.
"Cao Cao?" Yan Xiang's words were contemptuous, and then he snorted softly: "After the eunuch, it is unbearable. ”
"But this person has some courage and ambition, chasing Lu Bu, Pingyu Prefecture, and greedy Xuzhou, and he can be called a hero."
Jia Xu smiled heartily, "Yes, although Cao Cao is not as good as Yuan Gong, this person is ambitious, brave and strategic, can know how to make good use of people, and has countless good generals under his command."
If the guess is right, in the spring of the next year, he will inevitably send troops to attack my lord or Yuan Gong to level the rear.
If our lord and Yuan Gong do nothing, they will be defeated one by one, and there will be no place to bury them. ”
Yan Xiang narrowed the corners of his eyes, he didn't know about this matter, but he mentioned it to Yuan Shu many times, but Yuan Shu was greedy for pleasure, and was broken by Cao Cao, and he didn't dare to send troops, which was chilling.
"You're right, Cao Cao's henchmen are your lord and my lord." Yan Xiang was frank, and immediately sighed lightly: "To tell you the truth, I am not satisfied with you, my lord was frightened by that Cao Cao, and he didn't dare to fight with him at all." ”
"Although you have good intentions, but I can't do anything, please go back!"
"Hehe, Yan Changshi, even if Yuan Gong is timid, is it possible that even you are timid?" Jia Xu shouted.
"You... How dare you insult me," Yan Xiang blew his beard and glared, shouting angrily.
"Before I came, my lord boasted that Yan Changshi was talented, and he must worship Yan Changshi before worshipping Yuan Gong, and this matter can be done. But when I see it today, it's just a vain name, say goodbye! Jia Xu sneered and ridiculed, and wanted to leave after speaking.
"Stop!" Yan Xiang's white eyebrows tightened, and after hesitating for a long time, he said: "If your lord has any high opinions, I might as well listen to it, if it is feasible, I will give advice to death." ”
The corners of Jia Xu's mouth hooked up a trace of triumphant smile, turned around and hugged his fists and said: "Changshi Gaoyi." I am willing to bow my head and recognize Yuan Gong as the master, and form a righteous alliance to fight against Cao thieves. ”
In addition, at this time, Cao Cao should have led his army north to Luoyang and plundered the Son of Heaven to order the princes.
At this time, Xuchang is empty, my lord is now in conjunction with Lu Bu, and wants to cut down Cao in three ways, and the matter will be completed, and Runan will return to your army, I don't know how this plan is, can Changshi persuade Yuan Gong to send troops to attack Cao? ”
"Cao Cao going north? Is this serious? Yan Xiang's eyes froze, and he said urgently.
"Nature." Jia Xu pinched his beard and said calmly, "Xuchang is empty, this battle only requires your army to send 8,000 troops at the end of the month, known as 100,000, out of Jiujiang to capture Runan, then the Runan clan will definitely respond successively, and it can be taken lightly." ”
"All it takes?" Yan Xiang raised his eyebrows, surprised.
"Then it will be fine, and my lord will leave the rest." Jia Xu said confidently.
Yan Xiang squinted at Jia Xu for a moment, and said loudly: "Leave this matter to me, at the end of the month, my lord will send troops to help, and I hope that your army will not play tricks." ”
"How dare you," Jia Xu waved his hand and apologized.
Immediately, the two discussed some details, and Jia Xu left, and he didn't even visit Yuan Shu in person.
......
Xuzhou,
Inside the city of Xiapi.
At the platform of the Water Pavilion, Lu Bu pinched the wine bottle and drank boldly, holding a woman in his arms, and his mood was happy.
Seeing Chen Gong coming quickly, Lu Bu shouted with a smile: "Gongtai, look what this is." ”
"Gold? Where does so much gold come from? Chen Gong frowned, pointed to the boxes of horseshoe gold and asked.
"Huh~, don't be excited. These gold were sent by Zhang Xiu, and they were not made friends with Dong Zhuo in the early years, but they were not friends, but it's a pity! Lu Bu drank and laughed, looking very proud.
"Zhang Xiu? What did he do by sending gold? Chen Gong instantly became vigilant.
"He was worried that Cao Cao would attack him in the coming year, so he wanted to invite me to take advantage of Cao Cao's unstable foothold to attack Cao's army." Lu Bu was quite complacent.
"Confused, Fengxian you are confused!" Chen Gong's face was red, and he shouted angrily.
Lu Bu was suddenly unhappy, and slapped the wine bottle on the wooden case, silently.
"Fengxian, who is Cao Cao? This person's advisers are like clouds, and the generals are like rain, have you forgotten the battle of Puyang? And now it is all based on Yan and Henan, if it is offended, I am afraid that it will be us who will suffer in the coming year! Chen Gong said earnestly.
"What's more, Xuzhou has just been decided, how to dispatch troops and horses to defeat Cao Cao? At present, our army should rest and recuperate, and wait for the time when the fighter plane can go down in a battle. ”
Chen Gongmian is red-eared and equatorial.
"Gongtai, Xuzhou is adjacent to Cao Cao, even if we forbear, Cao Cao will never let us go, not to mention that Zhang Xiu is the main attack in this battle, I only need to send a partial division to echo it."
"And Zhang Xiu also promised that after the deed is completed, he will also send 100,000 pieces of corn."
Lu Bu said happily.
"What do you say? Zhang Xiu's main attack? ”
Chen Gong frowned, and asked indignantly: "Zhang Ji died only three months ago, why did he Zhang Xiu attack Cao Cao?" What nonsense. ”
"Gongtai, you put out the fire first. I have promised the messenger about this matter, and it is difficult to change it. Lu Bu stepped forward and pulled Chen Gong in a good voice, he still had to rely on Chen Gong.
"When the time comes, I will send Zhang Liao to lead 8,000 soldiers and horses, and echo it from afar.
If it can win, then our army will take advantage of the victory to pursue and seize Liang, Chenliu and other places. If it is not victorious, then our army will avoid fighting, and it will not lose anything, but it will also gain a large amount of money, so why not do it? ”
After listening to Lu Bu's words, Chen Gong frowned and thought for a moment, and then said: "Okay, just follow what Feng Xian said." However, Cao Thief has a lot of advisers, and Zhang Liao must be cautious in this trip, and he must not risk the enemy lightly. ”
"Don't worry, Wenyuan is thoughtful, and there will be no big problem." Lu Buhao smiled heartily.
"Oh, by the way, Fengxian, except for Guangling County, the rest of the six counties of Xuzhou have all heard the wind and surrendered. The lord should give an edict to the people, so that the hearts of the people may be reassured. ”
Chen Gong recalled the matter and immediately said.
"Huh~, such a trivial matter is handled by the public station." When Lu Bu heard that the head of government affairs was big, he waved his hand and was quite impatient, and turned to drink and laugh with the beautiful woman in his arms.
