Cao Cao took the power of Xuzhou's great victory and personally wrote a letter of recruitment to Zhang Xiu.

In fact, not only Cao Cao, Hebei Yuan Shao is about to completely destroy Gongsun Zhan, then he will easily unify Hebei Hebei, Hebei, You, and Qing four states, so Yuan Shao has also begun to plot Cao Cao, and then dominate the world.

Nanyang Zhang Xiu is Cao Cao's big trouble, Yuan Shao hopes to be able to fight Cao Cao in the north and south with Zhang Xiu in the future, and also sent a messenger to hope to recruit Zhang Xiu.

Zhang Xiu didn't dare to make a decision lightly, so she discussed with Jia Xu.

After Jia Xu read the two parties' Zhao'an books, he tore up Yuan Shao's Zhao'an books.

Zhang Xiu hurriedly said: "Yuan Shao is about to unify the four states of Hebei, he is the strongest prince in the world, and his strength is stronger than Cao Cao. ”

Zhang Xiu is not to blame Jia Xu, for so many years, Zhang Xiu has developed the habit of following Jia Xu's advice, and everything must be discussed with Jia Xu.

Jia Xu said with a smile: "Yuan Shao and Cao Cao will have a battle within a year, although Yuan Shao is stronger than Cao Cao, but Yuan Shao is lacking in talent and morality, looking at his actions are hesitant and indecisive, and cronyism, although the strength is better than Cao Cao, but the number of defeats with Cao Cao is greater." Moreover, it is precisely because Yuan Shao is strong and cronyistic that the general must not be reused, and Cao Cao is weak, and now he wrote a letter of recruitment, indicating that he must have released his personal grudges with the general, which is a great virtue and great ambition, if the general votes, Cao Cao will reuse the general, so Cao Cao is more suitable than Yuan Shao. ”

As soon as Jia Xu finished speaking, another sergeant came to report outside the door: "There is a messenger from the Marquis of Qin in Guanzhong." ”

Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu were both shocked, and Jia Xu instantly calmed down again, and he had already expected the intention of the envoy of Qin Hou Liu Yu in his heart.

Together with Zhang Xiu, he met with the envoy sent by Liu Yu, who was Liu Yu's important minister, Liu Ye.

After Liu Ye saw Zhang Xiu, he first bowed his hand, and then took out Liu Yu's Zhao'an book and said: "My father-in-law, General Qin Hou Jing, is a hero and wants to conspire with the general to do great things. ”

Zhang Xiu was taken aback, and after reading Liu Yu's Zhao'an book, he handed it to Jia Xu.

Zhang Xiu said to Liu Ye: "Can I discuss this matter first?" ”

Liu Ye seems to have been prepared, Liu Yu explained a lot to him before he came, and from the full favor of information, he knew that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao also wanted to recruit Zhang Xiu, he smiled at Zhang Xiu: "My lord has a word for me to bring with the general, Cao Cao also wants to recruit General An, although he has put aside his personal grudge against the general on the surface, but the general turned forward to kill Cao Cao's henchman Dian Wei and his eldest son Cao Ang, it is an irreparable thing. Not to mention whether Cao Cao will suddenly turn over this old account one day in the future, can the general really be at ease by Cao Cao's side for a long time? ”

After that, Liu Ye arched his hand: "At this point, the general thinks cautiously, and Ye retreats first." ”

When leaving, Liu Ye nodded and smiled at Jia Xu very meaningfully.

When Liu Ye left, Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu were shocked.

Zhang Xiu was shocked by Liu Ye's last words, if he voted for Cao Cao, even if Cao Cao seemed to let go of his personal grudge with him now, how did he know that Cao Cao would not turn over old accounts in the future? Based on this, can he really be at ease under Cao Cao for a long time? Don't you worry about it every day!

Jia Xu was shocked how did Liu Yu know that Cao Cao and Yuan Shao had come to Zhao'an to write letters, and he intended to persuade Zhang Xiu to join Cao Cao? There is also Liu Ye's very meaningful glance before leaving, others may not guess the meaning, but he knows that it is instructed by Qinhou Liu Yu, this is the meaning of Qinhou Liu Yu who values him more than Zhang Xiu, if he takes refuge with Zhang Xiu, he will be reused by Qinhou Liu Yu.

Jia Xu thought that Liu Ye's words before might have made it impossible for Zhang Xiu to accept Cao Cao's recruitment, after all, no matter how willing Zhang Xiu was to follow his advice, Liu Ye's words touched Zhang Xiu too much.

Jia Xu sighed secretly, Qin Hou Liu Yu had this plan, and some time ago he made a serious military discipline of cutting his hair and acting as the head, and then looking at his rise to the road, the world may not be Cao Cao's in the future.

had made up his mind, Jia Xu persuaded Zhang Xiu to give up Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, and instead accepted the recruitment of Liu Yu, the Marquis of Qin, so he asked Zhang Xiu to invite Liu Ye back.

Jia Xu raised the last question: "If my general accepts the Qin Marquis's recruitment, Cao Cao will come to attack in anger, what should I do?" ”

Liu Ye replied with a smile: "The lord has already replied, the land of the four wars in Nanyang, the current lord of my family does not want to occupy it, my lord is based on Guanzhong, and the established strategy is to level the Huns first, then go down to Yizhou, and then take the world, and the general and the people of Nanyang can move to Guanzhong." The lord of my family has a saying, the territory does not care about the size, the people are the source of everything, the people of Nanyang, such as a county of Nanyang. ”

Jia Xu nodded, with such wisdom and strategy, even if the world cannot be unified in the future, it is not difficult for Guanzhong and Yizhou to become a country on its own. Then he glanced at Zhang Xiu.

Zhang Xiu stood up and replied with a smile: "In this way, I am willing to serve the Hou of Qin!" ”

Immediately, Zhang Xiu led the troops to move to Guanzhong together with many people in Nanyang.

This trip was extremely sudden, Zhang Xiu only notified Liu Biao, the pastor of Jingzhou, but did not say that a large number of people in Nanyang would be relocated together, and only asked Liu Biao to send people to Nanyang to return to Nanyang.

When Liu Biao sent someone, he saw that Nanyang was almost an empty city, and he was so angry that he scolded.

Xu Du.

When Cao Cao got the news, Zhang Xiu and many people in Nanyang left Nanyang County, and Cao Cao was so angry that his face turned pale.

Cao Cao stood up and said angrily: "Liu Yu bullied me too much, I will definitely crusade against him!" ”

If Liu Yu recruited Zhang Xiu before Cao Cao decided to let go of his personal grudge with Zhang Xiu, Cao Cao would not be so angry, but Cao Cao is now in the case that he has let go of his grudge with Zhang Xiu and wrote a book to recruit Zhang Xiu.

Immediately, Cao Cao was angry and raised 200,000 troops to kill Tongguan.

Guanzhong, Chang'an City.

Liu Yu was busy cleaning the dust for Zhang Xiu, and he didn't know that Cao Cao had angrily raised troops to crusade against him, of course, knowing that he was not afraid, he didn't think that Cao Cao's current strength could break through Tongguan and enter the pass.

Zhang Xiulai brought not only more than 40,000 troops under his command, but also more than 200,000 of the hundreds of thousands of people in Nanyang County

Zhang Xiu actually doesn't have too many ambitions and ideas, if there is a stable environment, Zhang Xiu is definitely a general who leads the troops in battle.

When he saw Liu Yu for the first time, Zhang Xiu paid a big salute, saying that he was sincere to Liu Yu, not unwilling to be persecuted, and he also hoped to get Liu Yu's trust.

Liu Yu did not disappoint Zhang Xiu, as soon as he saw the big salute, he hurriedly helped Zhang Xiu up, and also held Zhang Xiu's hand to comfort him, and awarded Zhang Xiu as General Yang Wu.

Subsequently, Liu Yu specially summoned Jia Xu to the side hall and had a chat with Jia Xu.

Liu Yu was delighted, Jia Xu's strategy was not inferior to Guo Jia, during the Three Kingdoms period, Jia Xu followed Zhang Xiu to Cao Cao, perhaps because he was afraid of Cao Cao, and the death of Cao Ang, Dian Wei, etc. had his 'merits', he did not dare to fully expose himself, and Cao Cao could not trust him wholeheartedly, so Jia Xu was in Cao Ying during the Three Kingdoms period, and he was not able to maximize his intelligence at all.

Of course, Liu Yu will not distrust Jia Xu, looking at Jia Xu's life, all he wants is a place to live in peace, plus he can occasionally give full play to his talents, Liu Yu can easily give Jia Xu what he needs.

In the end, Liu Yu awarded Jia Xu as a Zhonglang.

Five days later, the news that Cao Cao personally led an army of 200,000 to Tongguan came.

Liu Yu smiled faintly, did not panic at all, and also led an army of 140,000 plus the newly invested Lu Bu, Zhang Xiu, Jia Xu and other civil and military generals to support Tongguan, and confronted Cao Cao's two armies in Tongguan.
