"Oh? But I don't know it. I don't know which state and county Zhicai is referring to? ”

"Merge the state!"

Wen Han's eyes widened, and suddenly there was a feeling of a sudden opening, and an extremely exquisite brilliance burst out in his eyes. Xi Long smiled and continued.

"That's why I say that. It is all because the people of Bingzhou are sincere to obey the lord, and the lord repelled the Qiang Hu in the early years of the state, and even went deep into the Qiang realm to rescue 100,000 Han people and won the name of the champion. The lord was able to merge the hearts of the people of the state, but at this time, the state had no owner, and most of the territory of the state was taken by the White Wave thief army. If the lord waves his army to attack the white wave thieves at this time, it is the best time to take the annexed state into his pocket. ”

"But Pingyang is too flamboyant, he is an old general of Duke Ding, and he and I were allies of the Alliance of Righteous Teachers, if I want to annex the state, it is inevitable that I will not conflict with him."

"If the lord wants to achieve great things, he can't do everything according to his heart and use his feelings. Zhang Yang has no eloquence and strategy, and there are few generals, although many states and counties in the state are guarded, and they are all looking at him, but they are limited to the name. And Zhang Yang was just pushed to the forefront by them.

Now that Ding Gong is dead, no one in Bingzhou can stabilize the overall situation, and Ding Gong's old generals are all on their own side, so Bingzhou will be defeated by the white wave thieves sooner or later.

If the entire annexation of the state falls into the hands of the white wave thieves, the lord wants to crusade again, but he is afraid that Hedong will have to pay a heavy price before he can obtain the annexation. ”

Wen Han narrowed his knife-like eyes, his mind was racing, and after a while, Wen Han seemed to have made a decision, and his eyes became firm and bright.

"Before capturing and annexing the state, what preparations do I need to make for Hedong?"

Xi Long smiled, and his whole body radiated a momentum of grasping the overall situation and being confident.

"There are three preparations. First, if the name is not right, it is not possible to do it. The lord can first send a letter to Zhang Yang, saying that he wants to help him calm down and state the rebellion. Zhang Yang is good with the Lord, and the name of the Lord's benevolence and righteousness has long been famous all over the world, and he will undoubtedly accept the Lord's kindness after receiving the letter. In this way, the lord can have the name of a teacher.

Second, the annex is extensive, with eight counties and 164 counties. In order to capture the state, it is necessary to ensure the elite of the sergeants before leaving the army, and the lord can order the generals in Hedong to let the men and horses under his command rest for half a month, so that they can go home and reunite with their relatives. After all, if they want to go out and join the state, these soldiers will be separated from their relatives for a long time.

If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. The third is to prepare the things needed for the army, such as grain and grass, armaments, siege weapons, and so on. ”

Wen Han listened to Xi Long's orderly arrangements one by one, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Well, according to Zhicai. And except for the first thing that I need to perform in person, the rest will be handed over to Zhicai and Zigang, is this okay? ”

"Yes. With me and Zhang Zigang here, the lord can rest assured. Also, in this half month, the lord still hopes that the lord will calm down and recuperate, you are the lord of the east of the river. And the snake can't have a head, this Taoist ideal must be understood with the wisdom of the Lord. ”

"Hmph, Xi Zhicai, did you teach me to do things in turn? I understand, of course. Okay, you go out first, after I finish writing the letter, I will be ready to be a shopkeeper for half a month, and I will be chic for a while. ”

"Zhicai didn't dare, but he was worried about the lord. Belch... Before Long Lin left, he still had a question, but he didn't know whether to ask it or not? ”

"Don't be pretentious, just ask if you want to."

"Lord, do you really want Naja Wenhe to leave? If he is allowed to leave, no matter who he enters under in the future, that person will become a great trouble for the lord. ”

Xi Long frowned, he felt that Wen Han's move was undoubtedly to let the tiger return to the mountain and leave trouble. Even in the hearts of characters like Xi Long, they also feel that Jia Xu is terrifying and difficult to beat.

"A gentleman is a gentleman, although I ask myself if I am a gentleman, but I don't want to be a treacherous villain. If I had made a promise to him, how could I break it? ”

"Huh... In this way, it is inconvenient for Long to say more. Let's go and arrange for him to leave. ”

Xi Long seemed to have expected Wen Han to make such a decision, shook his head, and left after bowing to Wen Han. Wen Han rubbed his aching temples, closed his eyes and meditated for a while, then sat down on the table, picked up the pen and wrote the letter.

An hour later, Wen Han had just finished writing the letter to Zhang Yang, and his heart had just relaxed, when a sergeant came and said that Jia Xu was asking to see him. Wen Han was a little surprised, his heartbeat accelerated violently, thinking that this Jia Xu had a change of heart and was willing to join his command?

However, Wen Han quickly threw this idea away. I think this Jia Xu is probably here to say goodbye.

"Pass him in."

Wen Han nodded to the sergeant. After a while, Jia Xu walked in, and he first gave Wen Han a deep salute before speaking.

Xu threatened millions of lives, but Wen Champion was still willing to fulfill his promise and let Xu leave. Wen Champion is really a trustworthy person. I admired it very much. ”

"Jia Wenhe, there is no need to say the façade. Are you here to say goodbye to me, or to see if I have any intention of harming you? ”

But Jia Xu didn't seem to hear the irony in Wen Han's words, and just smiled at Wen Han.

"I'm scared. If Champion Wen wants to attack Xu, Xu has already died more than 10,000 times. Champion Wen's style of acting has always been above board, how dare he doubt it.

In addition to saying goodbye, he also specially offered a strategy and advice to the champion to repay the great favor of the champion of Wen for the millions of people in Liangzhou. ”

"Oh? Be all ears. ”

"The champion is a person with great talents, and there is no need to pick out some words. If the champion wants to expand his power, he thinks that there is a state and county, which is the most suitable for the champion of the article. ”

"Merge the state?"

"Uh... Hehe, it seems that Champion Wen is also Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. I really don't know what to do, and the class has an axe. I don't know, but the handsome man named Xi Zhicai that General Xu often mentions in his mouth has a plan for Wen Champion? ”

Wen Han looked at Jia Xu silently and did not answer, Jia Xu smiled casually and said again.

"In this way, I can only give one piece of advice to Champion Wen."

Jia Xu paused, put away his smile, his face became dark, and he met Wen Han's eyes.

"Champion Wen, with your great talent and so many heroes and heroes under your command, it is not difficult to shock the party. But if you want to win the world, Champion Wen still needs a heart needed in troubled times. ”

"The heart needed in troubled times? What kind of heart is that? ”

Wen Han's heart sank, and he stared at Jia Xu deadly, but Jia Xu had an indescribable expression that could only be conveyed, and shook his head at Wen Han.

"That's it. Xu will no longer stay, and I hope that the champion will take care. ”

Jia Xu bowed his hand and left in style. And Jia Xu's words seemed to have a great impact on Wen Han, who fell into a long period of contemplation and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

That night, Jia Xu left Anyi City with his family, as well as Chen Bing and dozens of other Liangzhou people. Chen Bing and his subordinates, from the moment Li Xu fled with Jia Xu, they had already decided to follow Jia Xu for the rest of their lives. And Wen Han didn't leave them behind, and let them leave with Jia Xu.

"Master, I think that the champion of Nawen treats his subordinates very well, and he has great ambitions and strategies, and he also values his master. Why didn't the master stay under him? ”

Chen Bing was driving a carriage, and behind his carriage, there were two carriages. Jia Xu's family members sat in the three carriages. There are dozens of Liangzhou people following next to him, acting as guards.

Jia Xu sat next to Chen Bing, and after listening to Chen Bing's question, his face was slightly heavy.

Although Wen Champion is good, he has a fatal flaw, that is, he is too idealistic and emotional. His shortcoming, in this troubled world, will sooner or later bring about a catastrophe.

If he had tasted the pain before this catastrophe came, and had found out earlier, then he might have been able to accomplish something great. Otherwise, he would just be momentarily bright.

As for why I didn't join under him, it was because I must be ruthless and cut off every time I make a move, and Wen Guanguan is easily swayed by his benevolence, so I am not suitable for him. In this way, even if I reluctantly get into the company with him, it will be difficult for me to get ahead. ”

Chen Bing sighed as if he didn't understand, and then asked again.

"Then master, where should we go from here. Is it possible to go back to Li Xuan? ”

"From the moment I left Li Xuan's command, I have decided to part ways with him from now on. As for where to go, I have a choice. ”

"Huh? The owner had already thought about it, so what was the master's choice? ”

"Cao Cao, Cao Mengde. This person is even better than Wen Champion in many aspects, and what is even more rare is that he has an ambitious heart. I can guarantee that the general trend of the world will change because of this person. It is even possible that he is the peerless person who can put an end to the current troubled situation. Now that he has not yet become famous, it is the best time for me to join the company. ”

"Cao Cao? Master, he and Wen Guanguan are close friends. After all, the master has been under the command of Wen Guanguan, if the master enters the office under Cao Cao, I am afraid that it will cause Wen Guanguan to be dissatisfied with Cao Cao. Therefore, will Cao Cao refuse his master? ”

"Hehe, you don't have to underestimate Champion Wen's strength so much, just because of such a trivial matter, he will never be dissatisfied with Cao Cao.

And as I just said, Cao Cao is a hero. As long as it can help him achieve great things, even if there is a blood feud, he will accept it without hesitation. ”

"It's the villain who is too talkative. With the wisdom of Mr., the decision made must have been right. ”

After that, Chen Bing didn't speak again, Jia Xu closed his eyes and cultivated his mind, and the three carriages drove quickly in the direction of Chen Liu under the sound of horse whips.

After Jia Xu left Anyi, in the following days, Wen Han had a rare amount of leisure. And Guan Yu was carefully cared for by Hua Tuo and Diao Chan, and his injuries gradually recovered. After that, Hua Tuo treated Wen Han for a period of time, and Wen Han's right shoulder gradually stopped being painful. At the same time, Xi Long and Zhang Hong began to arrange pre-war preparations for the attack on the White Wave Thieves. In addition to the two of them being busy every day, military attachés such as Xu Huang, Gao Shun, and Zhou Cang seemed a little comfortable and leisurely.

In the Anyi Taishou Mansion, Wen Han was combing Cai Yan's hair, Cai Yan's hair was black and soft, exuding bursts of fragrance.

"San Lang, how can you let the county guard do such a thing, it is really not majestic. Saburo put it down. ”

"Hehe, between husband and wife, there is no majesty. Yan'er, I'm often out fighting, and I've really hurt you. Just let me do something to make amends.

And on weekdays, don't be too save, spend what you should spend, and buy the silk and beads you like when you see them. You have been wearing this garment for some days, and tomorrow I will have you go and buy some silk, and then I will have a good tailor sew a new garment for you. ”

Wen Han lowered her head and kissed Cai Yan's black hair, smelling the fragrance of her hair very infatuated, Cai Yan's face was red, and a mist rose in her beautiful eyes, she didn't want Wen Han to be by her side often.

But from the moment she fell in love with this man, she understood that this man could not belong to her alone.

However, as long as this man still remembers her, cares about her, and loves her. Even for a moment, for a moment, she felt full of happiness.

Cai Yan felt Wen Han's body temperature and breath, and his heart was so sweet that he couldn't speak, as if he was afraid that this rare atmosphere would be broken.

After a while, Wen Han suddenly remembered what the horse trainer had entrusted him, so he asked Cai Yan.

"That's right, Yan'er. The person Wenxing seniors dragged me to find, have you ever found it? ”

"Oh, San Lang, do you mean Lianxiang, Meixiang, and Lanxiang?"

Cai Yan smiled, like a moving elf, and asked with a frown.
