At this time, Liu Ye appeared in Liyang County to do things for Jin Jue's army, which was enough for his position, indicating that Liu Ye and his subordinates had taken refuge in Jin Jue. Therefore, both Cao Cao and Sun Ce already knew that the southern part of Runan County controlled by Liu Ye had belonged to Jin Jue's army.

It is easy for Fu Tong to take refuge in Liu Biao, but if he wants to be able to gain the trust of the suspicious Liu Biao from the beginning and assume the position of the Taishou of a county, even if it is Nanyang County, which has been attacked by the Cao army, it needs a certain amount of strength, so that Liu Biao, who is the pastor of Jingzhou, cannot ignore the military strength, Liu Bei can speak for Fu Tong in front of Liu Biao.

Otherwise, Fu Tong is so young, and he doesn't have much combat record and strength, in front of Liu Surface, Liu Bei has empty mouth and white teeth, and it is not easy to open this mouth at all.

Liu Bei and three thousand Nanyang soldiers came to Langling County, and Fu Tong converged, then went to Nanyang together, Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu, who received the news in advance, immediately led their troops to leave Wancheng, when Liu Bei and Fu Tong arrived in Wancheng, Zhang Xiu had already led his two thousand Xiliang elite iron cavalry to Shangyong County in the west of Hanzhong County.

Of course, the Wancheng that Zhang Xiu left to Fu Tong was not an empty city, and he left the soldiers who were unwilling to go to Wudu County with him and recruited from Nanyang County over the years in Wancheng, and temporarily managed by his general Hu Che'er.

After Fu Tong and Hu Che'er met in Wancheng City, they immediately handed over.

After the handover, Hu Che'er asked Fu Tong in private, and said, "General Fu, I don't know what kind of temper your lord is, although my general Zhang has decided to surrender, he is still a little worried about the situation in Wudu County, so he will ask you a question or two." ”

When Fu Tong heard this, he glanced at Hu Che'er, and remembered Gongzi Jin Jue's comment on Hu Che'er, a general, this person is ambitious, but he is hesitant to do things, and he does not have the indomitable courage and determination of a general. In the second battle of Nanyang, the reason why Zhang Xiu surrendered first and then rebelled, in addition to the fact that Zhang Ji's wife was occupied by Cao Cao, there was another inducement, that is, this Hu Che'er.

Cao Cao liked Hu Che'er's martial arts and gave him a letter in private, but as a result, Zhang Xiu learned about it. You must know that the most elite cavalry under Zhang Xiu, the commander is Hu Che'er. Zhang Xiu has not yet surrendered to Cao Jun, and Cao Cao can't wait to dig into Zhang Xiu's corner, how can Zhang Xiu endure it?

Thinking of this, Fu Tong pondered in his heart for a moment and replied, "At this point, please don't worry. To tell the truth, among the counties currently controlled by Gongzi, Wudu County has the worst conditions in terms of population, grain income, etc. It's just that Wudu County is outside of Yizhou, but General Zhang has room to operate alone, just like General Zhang was in Nanyang County before.

What's more, although Wudu County is very poor in many aspects, but this county is the only county under the rule of Gongzi that can be used to raise Xiliang war horses, Gongzi said, as long as General Zhang arrives in Wudu County, everything in the county is handed over to him, and at the same time, as long as General Zhang raises and trains no more than 10,000 Xiliang horse army, the required grain and grass are provided by Gongzi.

General Hu, after you meet General Zhang, just tell the truth what the last general said. Besides, Wudu County has been rectified by Gongzi himself, except for the two counties in the west, the rest of the counties in the county have been basically controlled by our army, and eighty percent of the Di people have also been subjugated by Gongzi. Gongzi believed that the remaining two counties would not surrender to the Diren tribe, and General Zhang would be able to wipe them out in less than a year.

As for General Hu, Gongzi intends to divide the three realms of Guanghan County into Yinping County, if General Zhang does not object, Gongzi is ready to let General you serve as the first Taishou of Yinping County, how about it? Yinping County is close to Wudu County and Guanghan County, in the east of Guanghan County, the land of three counties is under its jurisdiction, and there are also many Di people in its territory, and Gongzi also promised the general that as long as the cavalry under your rule does not exceed 3,000, all the grain and grass you need, Gongzi will provide you with all the amount of food and grass.

Of course, Fu's last words, General Hu, you can just keep it in mind, and when you and General Zhang meet my son-in-law, the son-in-law will mention this matter in front of General Zhang, how about it? ”

Originally, Fu Tong told Hu Che'er what Fu Gan told Zhang Xiu, but because the time was too tight before, in order to be able to send troops in time to aid Liu Bei and drive Sun Ce out of Jiangbei, Fu Gan did not have time to inform Zhang Xiu of the matter.

This time, since Hu Che'er asked about this matter in person, Fu Tong pushed the boat down the river and informed Hu Che'er of how Jin Jue arranged Zhang Xiujun.

Judging from Hu Che'er's expression after listening to his words, Fu Tong knew that this guy was quite satisfied at this time. After the second battle of Nanyang, in fact, Zhang Xiu and Hu Che'er had a gap in their hearts, just like Lu Bu treated Gao Shun, after the war, Zhang Xiu re-controlled the military power of the 2,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry in his own hands, and Hu Che'er was secretly surrendered by Mingsheng and became the commander of the infantry in Zhang Xiu's army.

There are many subordinates in charge of soldiers, but everyone can see that Hu Che'er's status in Zhang Xiu's army has plummeted. Jin Jue's arrangement, on the surface, is to increase Zhang Xiu's strength, after all, Yinping County and Wudu County are close to each other, but if Zhang Xiu and Hu Che'er are separated, Hu Che'er will no longer be able to affect Zhang Xiu'er, and Hu Che'er himself can develop his own power in Yinping County.

Such an arrangement, even after Zhang Xiu heard it, he would not be too disgusted. You must know that although the conditions of Wudu County are far inferior to those of Nanyang County, the enemies faced by Wudu County, Ma Dai of Longxi County and Ma Teng of Hanyang County, are too far apart from Cao Cao. In Wudu County, Zhang Xiu can be safe and stable, and develop his strength step by step.

There is no need to worry all the time about whether Cao Cao will raise a large army to attack Nanyang again, as he did in Nanyang.

Wancheng was ruined, and Liu Biao had already been suspicious of Zhang Xiu, so in the third battle of Nanyang, when Wancheng was besieged, Liu Biao actually did not try his best to rescue Zhang Xiujun, he was also worried that this was a scene played by Cao Cao and Zhang Xiu in front of him.

Sure enough, after listening to Fu Tong's answer, Hu Che'er immediately happily led his own men to follow Zhang Xiujun's marching route to Hanzhong County. He originally wanted to have a good drink with Fu Tong in Wancheng.

However, Hu Che'er's proposal was rejected by Fu Tong.
