According to legend, most of the children of the Xiang family are heroes, and the most talked about of them is none other than Xiang Ji, the overlord of Western Chu when Chu and Han fought for hegemony, but unfortunately he was too rigid and conceited, and finally defeated and killed himself in Wujiang, which is really sighing.

In view of this, Zhao Yu was also a little curious about Xiang Xuan, who was said to be the self-proclaimed Xiang family, but unfortunately he never had the opportunity to see it, until today, he was able to see Xiang Xuan with his own eyes, and saw this fierce general under Guan Shuo, who single-handedly defeated the Yingchuan County Army.

According to Zhao Yu's visual inspection, this announcement is only about thirty-five years old at most, seeing him on his back and sitting on a war horse, I have to say that he is indeed a little powerful and domineering, but it is far from the 'overlord Xiang Ji' that Zhao Yu knows, that is far from enough - of course, Xiang Ji, a legendary figure, has long been mythologized to a certain extent, even if he is a hero at the end of the road.

"Zhou Hu, come out to see me!"

Just when Zhao Yu was secretly observing that Xuan, that Xuan suddenly shouted outside the city.

"Huh? How did he know I was in Xuchang?'

A question flashed in Zhao Yu's heart.

But after thinking about it, he had been in Xuchang for six days, and perhaps that Xiang Xuan had learned his whereabouts from somewhere else.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yu spread his hands, motioned for the people on both sides to retreat, and immediately shouted with a smile towards Xiang Xuan under the city: "How did General Xiang know that Zhou was in Xuchang?" …… In other words, General Xiang actually knew Zhou's name? This made Zhou a little surprised, if I remember correctly, I shouldn't have seen General Xiang. ”

"Sure enough, it's Zhou Hu......

After hearing Zhao Yu's reply, Xiang Xuan frowned unconsciously.

He chuckled and said, "Although Xiang has never met Leader Zhou, he also knows Leader Zhou's fame...... What's the matter, Cao Suo saw that he couldn't deal with me, so he invited you to Xuchang? Cao Suo? Cao Suo? Why don't you dare come out to see me? ”

"Cao Suo, the captain, is indeed aggrieved enough, no wonder the county army is worried when they hear about the rebels......

Zhao Yu glanced at Tian Qin and Liao Guang, and saw that their faces were embarrassed, and they dared not speak angrily, so they secretly shook their heads in their hearts.

"Ahem."

He coughed and said to Xiang Xuan under the city: "Cao Duwei's old injury has recurred, and he has gone home to recuperate, and now I am the Du Lieutenant!" ”

"What?"

Xiang Xuan's face under the city changed slightly.

He originally thought that Zhou Hu was transferred to Xuchang to assist Cao Suo, but he didn't expect that Zhou Hu would replace Cao Suo.

That's a problem.

Xiang Xuan certainly understands the difference between the two.

If Zhou Hu only came to assist Cao Suo, then everything should still be based on Cao Suo, even if Zhou Hu is good at using troops, in the end it depends on whether Cao Suo adopts the former's strategy, according to Xiang Xuan's understanding of Cao Suo, Zhou Hu's more dangerous strategies, Cao Suo should not dare to use, which in disguise helped Xiang Xuan to eliminate some possibilities.

What's more important is that when necessary, he Xiang Xuan can also use a discord strategy to divide the relationship between Zhou Hu and Cao Suo, so that Zhou Hu cannot gain Cao Suo's trust.

But if Zhou Hu replaced Cao Suo as the governor of Yingchuan County, it would be the most unfavorable situation.

Not only was the divisive plan ineffective, but what was even worse was that Zhou Hu used his troops to 'complement each other', and in order to win, he could even use the strategy of killing 1,000 enemies and losing 800 of himself in street fighting, which was really difficult to predict.

"No, don't let Zhou Hu stand firm in Xuchang."

Thinking secretly in his heart, Xiang Xuan thought about it, and suddenly laughed and said, "Haha, isn't there no one available in Xuchang?" actually made Leader Zhou a lieutenant...... Although I have never met the head of Zhou, I also know that the head of Zhou has a good relationship with Guan Shuo, the commander of my Changsha Yishi, which has kept the peace of Kunyang. This week, the leader of Xuchang became the captain of Xuchang, why not take the opportunity to dedicate Xuchang, Xiang Mou must be in front of Guan Shuai to show merit for the leader of Zhou. ”

Hearing these words, the county guards on the city wall were in an uproar, and Tian Qin, Liao Guang, Wang Yan and others, even including Changshi Chen Lang, subconsciously looked at Zhao Yu's face with a little horror.

Only Xun Yi's face was as usual, and he reprimanded everyone: "Hugh wants to listen to the thief's nonsense and provoke it, how can Zhou Duwei collude with the rebels?!" ”

I have to say that it is also thanks to Zhao Yu's ruthless methods in the past few days, and he has removed the official positions of many people without saying a word, which has deterred Tian Qin, Liao Guang and others, otherwise, seeing the appearance of Tian Qin and Liao Guang who want to speak and stop, I am afraid that they will not question it on the spot.

"This ...... What do you want to do?'

And just when everyone in the city had different expressions, Zhao Yu looked at Xiang Xuan under the city in surprise.

It is undeniable that in fact, he had expected that he would fight with Xiang Xuan and others, but he really didn't expect that Xiang Xuan would throw out the matter of his private meeting with Guan Shuo.

After thinking about it, Zhao Yu understood, and he smiled and said to Xiang outside the city: "I didn't expect General Xiang to be so jealous of Zhou, this really makes Zhou feel honored." ”

"What? Am I afraid of Leader Zhou? Xiang Xuan seemed to be smiling.

"Isn't it?"

Zhao Yu pointed to the city, and said with a smile: "You slandered me for colluding with your rebels, just to make these generals suspicious of me, and even let me lose my position as a captain, so that you can attack Xuchang in Japan." …… If it weren't for the slander, if Zhou was really the internal response of your rebels, why did you mention it at this moment? ”

Hearing this, the faces of Tian Qin, Liao Guang, Wang Yan, and Chen Lang gradually returned to normal.

That's right, if this Zhou Duwei really had any private collusion with the rebels, why did Xiang Xuan expose himself?

"I didn't expect that Xiang Xuan was so jealous of Zhou Duwei, obviously he had never seen Zhou Duwei......" 118

The surprised voice of the Marquis of the West City Gate made Zhao Yu secretly give him a thumbs up.

As Wang Yan's voice sounded, the soldiers in the city gradually settled down, and even the eyes that looked at Zhao Yu were different compared to before-this Zhou Duwei could make that Xuan Du feel jealous and troublesome, and he was really not an ordinary person.

Surprised, the soldiers in the city couldn't help but whisper.

"I can't imagine that this Captain Zhou would call that Xuan jealous ...... like this"

"In this way, as long as Zhou Duwei comes, why should I, Xuchang, be afraid of this announcement?"

Listening to the whispered discussions of the soldiers from the side, Rao is Zhao Yu was also a little ridiculous: That Xiang Xuan originally wanted to provoke, but he didn't expect that it would make these soldiers have confidence in him.

"Damn!"

Just when Zhao Yu was secretly funny, Xiang Xuan under the city couldn't help but curse secretly.

Rao was also unexpected, that Zhou Hu actually bit back, saying that he was afraid of Xiang Xuan...... Well, it does.

But now, he can only continue to bite the bullet, after all, once Zhou Hu gets the trust of Xuchang's soldiers, it will be more and more difficult for him to attack Xuchang.

Thinking of this, he said with a smile: "Xiang didn't say that Leader Zhou had an affair with my righteous teacher, my righteous teacher just admired the talent of Leader Zhou, so he acquiesced to Leader Zhou's continued occupation of Kunyang, Xiangcheng, and Runan counties, and acquiesced in Leader Zhou's wanton reclamation of wasteland and cultivation of grain in Kunyang...... If it weren't for the kindness of my righteous teacher, how much confidence would the leader of Zhou have to reclaim wasteland in Kunyang to cultivate grain? …… I advise the leader of Zhou to sacrifice Xuchang, and my righteous teacher will never be treated badly. ”

Hearing this, Tian Qin and Liao Guang couldn't help but glance at Zhao Yu a few times, and a little doubt arose in their hearts again.

It's no wonder, after all, under Xiang Xuan's threat, he Xuchang didn't dare to grow food outside the city this year, and he didn't know what to do after the food in the city was eaten up.

However, Kunyang, who was also threatened by the rebels, dared to reclaim wasteland in the county to cultivate grain, as if he was not afraid of the harassment of the rebels.

"This Xiang Xuan, this is an iron heart to get me down......

Secretly saying a word in his heart, Zhao Yu said with a smile: "Oh? Is that the kindness of your army? So, last year, the commander of your army, Guan Shuo, attacked my Kunyang, and could not overcome it for two months, and finally fled in embarrassment in my Kunyang's counterattack, and was captured by our side More than 10,000 prisoners, and fled back to Zhaoling in embarrassment, which is also the goodwill of your army? ”

Hearing this, the soldiers in the city were secretly speechless.

Although Tian Qin, Liao Guang and others all knew Zhao Yu's specific achievements, Xuchang's soldiers did not know, they only knew that Kunyang repelled the rebels last year, but they never expected that the rebels were defeated so badly in Kunyang.

That's right, how can Cao Suo, Tian Qin, Liao Guang and others have the face to specifically publicize Zhao Yu's achievements in Kunyang?

At this time, without waiting for Xiang Xuan's reply, Zhao Yu preemptively said with a smile: "General Xiang, I advise you to save your efforts, just rely on your words, how can you shake Zhou's position as the captain?" …… Instead of playing such a trick that is not in the flow, it is better to think more about the siege strategy. …… However, as long as I am in Xuchang, you will never succeed. ”

Hearing Zhao Yu say something terrible with a calm expression, he didn't seem to take Xiang Xuan outside the city in his eyes at all, not to mention the soldiers in the city, even Tian Qin, Liao Guang, Wang Yan, Chen Lang and others were secretly surprised.

"Hahahaha-"

Xiang Xuan, who was outside the city, was naturally angered by Zhao Yu's words, and laughed and said: "I didn't expect Leader Zhou to be so conceited, Xiang admired and admired." …… Since Leader Zhou is so conceited, I don't know if he dares to lead the army out of the city and compete with Xiang? ”

"This Xiang Xuan seems to like to use this little trick very much."

Zhao Yu frowned unconsciously.

Lead the county army in the city to fight against Xiang Xuan's army? Just those county soldiers who can't help but shudder when they hear the name of the rebels?

To be honest, Zhao Yu really didn't dare, because in his opinion, it was no different from sending him to death.

Seeing that Zhao Yu didn't react, Xiang Xuan outside the city became more and more proud, and laughed: "What's wrong?" Leader Zhou? Don't you dare? I didn't expect you to be more timid than that Cao Suo, which was really disappointing Xiang...... Just because you're like this, are you worthy of being jealous? ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers around him also laughed, sneering and insulting at the city gate.

Under the ridicule and insults of these people, the soldiers in the city looked at each other, and their morale was greatly affected.

Seeing this, Zhao Yu lightly ordered: "Wang Yan, open the city gate." ”

"Huh?" The Marquis of the Gate was stunned, and he couldn't believe his ears in disbelief: "Open, open the city gate? ”

Tian Qin was shocked, for fear that Zhao Yu would be provoked by that Xiang Xuan, and lead the army to fight with him, so he hurriedly persuaded him: "Captain, please ......"

"Shut up!"

Unceremoniously interrupting Tian Qin's words, Zhao Yu glanced at the Wang Yan and shouted, "Go quickly!" ”

"Yes, yes......" Although Wang Yan's face was a little pale, he still didn't dare to disobey Zhao Yu's order, and hurriedly ran down the city.

After a while, the west gate of Xuchang City slowly opened, making Xiang Xuan, who was laughing and insulting, and the team of soldiers beside him stunned.

At this moment, Zhao Yu shouted to Xiang Xuan outside the city: "General Xiang, you are so far away to ridicule and insult, like scratching your boots, you must not be very happy to scold, why don't you come to the city to scold, scold in front of my Zhou Hu, wouldn't it be happy?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Looking at the open city gate, and then looking at Zhao Yu in the city, Rao is Xiang Xuan was also a little distracted for a while.

He thought that his provocation was despicable and cunning enough, but he didn't expect that Zhou Hu would be even more despicable and cunning than him.
