"What nonsense!" Zhang Miao scolded.

Although the words were full of blame, he was defending Zhang Xiu, he knew the meaning of Zhang Xiu's words, and if it was spread here, it would cause a lot of trouble.

At least, Zhang Baiqi, Liu Dai, Guo Yan, and Li Dao would not let the two of them go so easily.

These words can't be known to Zhang Baiqi and others.

However.

Zhang Xiu ignored Zhang Miao's scolding, and continued: "Brother, don't worry, the camp is surrounded by our cronies, and there are only you and me in the camp!" ”

"Brother Fei thinks that we still have a chance to win now? If you don't plan early, you will definitely end up in ruin! ”

After today's battle.

He knew that there was no chance of victory between them, unless there was a miracle, otherwise they would be eliminated by Qin Yin and Cao Cao after all.

And he wasn't afraid of death, but he didn't want his brother to end up like this.

He is still very clear about Zhang Miao's love for him, so how can he have the intention of letting Zhang Miao die.

Now, he doesn't see any chance of winning, even if he sticks to Chen Liu, it's just a delay in the time of defeat.

Hear Zhang Xiu's words.

Zhang Miao was also silent, how could he not know the current situation.

Moreover, he and Zhang Baiqi and others were not sincerely united, and now they are even more defeated, at least he has no confidence that he will be able to block the next attack of the Cao army and the Qin army.

"But...!" Zhang Miao still had hesitation on his face.

Before he could finish speaking, he was stopped.

Zhang Xiu also saw Zhang Miao's hesitation, so he said directly: "What else does my brother need to consider?" Could it be that brother has the intention of dominating the Central Plains? Or is it stealing from that one location? If so, I haven't said it before, and I will do my best to help you achieve great things, brother! ”

After speaking, his face was also determined.

He doesn't have much idea himself, but if Zhang Miao has an idea, then even if he knows that he is dead, he will do his best to help Zhang Miao, this is his determination.

Hear the words.

Zhang Miao was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "You think too highly of me, although I have certain ambitions, but I also know that I am a person, and I don't have such a big pursuit, the reason why I agreed to Zhang Baiqi's union is just to sit on the land of Yanzhou!" ”

"Now the situation in the Central Plains, you and I are very clear, although the imperial court is still there, it no longer has the majesty of the past, and it is impossible to command the princes of the world at all."

"If this continues, it is only a matter of time before the world separates, and I just want to strengthen my own power, so as to preserve myself in the next big changes."

Facing Zhang Xiu, he also said what he thought in his heart.

The situation in the Central Plains has changed greatly since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and after Dong Zhuo's Rebellion, the princes of various states and counties have even more self-respecting.

Although Qin Yin controlled the imperial court, the princes of various states and counties would not obey the orders of the imperial court, and they also spread the news that Qin Yin was holding the Son of Heaven hostage.

Moreover, the jade seal of the country was also given to Yuan Shu by Sun Ce, and he returned to Jiangdong, but now he is pulling over the forces of Jiangdong.

As for Yuan Shu, who got the jade seal of the country, he didn't have the slightest idea of returning it to the imperial court, and he was still recruiting troops and horses in the land of Shouchun, developing the forces under his command.

The princes of the rest of the states and counties, with the exception of a small few, all had their own actions.

All kinds of signs show that the chaos in the Central Plains is just missing a fuse.

If he wants to have a foothold in the Central Plains, then he needs to strengthen his strength, otherwise when the accident comes, he will be swallowed up directly.

I didn't see that Han Fu, the Taishou of Jizhou, was directly forced out of Jizhou by Yuan Shao, and the entire Jizhou fell under Yuan Shao's control.

"In this case, what else does my brother have to worry about, the weak eat the strong, we are not the opponents of the Qin army and the Cao army, and the situation in the Central Plains has long been clear, why not throw yourself under the command of one side, so that you can also save yourself, and maybe let our Zhang family go further!" Zhang Xiu persuaded him.

Since Zhang Miao doesn't have the idea of competing for hegemony, and he doesn't have that kind of thought.

So it is not impossible to invest in one of the powerful parties in the Central Plains today, in addition to being able to preserve itself, but also to be able to make contributions.

As for which side to vote on, there is no need to choose, in addition to Chen Liu, there are two.

Zhang Miao didn't answer immediately, but touched his chin and pondered.

Obviously, I was a little moved by Zhang Xiu's words.

And Zhang Xiu is not wrong, anyway, it is just to preserve himself, so he is not just controlling the land of Yanzhou and enhancing his own power.

If you join the powerful side, you can also save yourself, and you don't need to think about too many things.

There's no need to worry about it.

But in this way, it is necessary to send someone under the fence, and the main power will not be in your own hands.

But if you can save yourself and let the Zhang family go further, such a thing is not unacceptable.

Come to think of it.

Zhang Miao's expression also became firm, and said, "Then what do you think should be done?" ”

In any case, his alliance with Zhang Baiqi and others is a fact, and if you want to change, you need a vote.

And this petition must satisfy Qin Yin and Cao Cao.

Otherwise, even if he had such a mind, he would not be able to continue, and he would be hunted down by the Qin army and the Cao army.

"Brother, aren't Zhang Baiqi and the others blaming their brother because of today's battle, then the brother can use the excuse of making amends to invite a few of them to the camp, and then do it during the banquet!" Zhang Xiu's eyes flashed with a fierce look and said.

Zhang Miao went to the main tent, he didn't follow, but he knew why in his heart.

Zhang Miao is his brother, and it is to save him, even if the deployment is disrupted, it is not something that Zhang Baiqi and others can blame.

Not to mention, it is still a matter of life and death for their brother.

And they are only temporarily united with Zhang Baiqi and others, not permanently, they have a plan, and they will not have any guilty thoughts, besides, what does the life and death of Zhang Baiqi and others have to do with them?

It is the honor of Zhang Baiqi and others to be able to use the death of Zhang Baiqi and others to save the lives of their brothers.

"But Zhang Bai has hundreds of Yellow Turban Armor in his hands!" Zhang Miao said worriedly.

Zhang Xiu shook his head and said, "Brother, don't worry, as long as not all the Yellow Turban Armorers come, I am sure enough to leave them all, and we don't have much performance, Zhang Baiqi and the others will not have any suspicions, even if Zhang Baiqi comes with all the Yellow Turban Armorers, we can also change the arrangement!" ”
