It can be said that Zhuge Liang still has confidence in Liu Bei, of course, he is more confident in himself. And only in Liu Bei, a relatively down-and-out prince, Zhuge Liang felt that he could show his ability. And the icing on the cake is indeed not as good as sending charcoal in the snow, of course he will not understand this truth.

In "The Teacher's Table", Zhuge Liang wrote, "Gou Quan's life is in troubled times, and he does not seek to reach the princes", or that, how can there be a person in the world who has no desires and no desires, so he Zhuge Liang said it very well, but can he be that kind of person? At least he can go out of the mountain to assist Liu Bei, to put it bluntly, he was indeed moved by Liu Bei Yes, it is to repay Liu Bei for his kindness, but Zhuge Liang also has his own plans to realize his own ideals, so he followed Liu Bei without hesitation.

But as a result, everyone knows that it is not very good. In fact, although Zhuge Liang's reputation is not small, to be honest, Liu Bei is definitely not obedient to him. At the beginning, it was not bad, after all, Liu Bei did not have any strategists, so Zhuge Liang was naturally the mainstay, and Liu Bei relied on him a lot.

But after that, as Liu Bei's strength became bigger and stronger, there were more and more talents under him, and he was not the only strategist Zhuge Liang, at that time, Zhuge Liang was not as important to Liu Bei as before. To give a simple example, in the romance, Liu Bei did not listen to the persuasion of the people, and he had to go to ask for Sun Quan, Zhuge Liang persuaded him several times, but the result was that there was no way.

Can you say that Zhuge Liang has no ability? But he couldn't persuade or stop Liu Bei, Liu Bei didn't listen to him, of course, he didn't listen to anyone. As a result, at that time, Zhuge Liang said a word. "If the Dharma is filial piety, it will be able to stop the Lord from going east."

This illustrates the problem, at least when Zhuge Liang can't persuade Liu Bei, Fa Zheng can persuade him, and indeed, this matter is not once or twice, Fa Zheng can really persuade his lord, but Zhuge Liang can't. However, at that time, Fa Zheng had already died, so no one could persuade Liu Bei anymore. Liu Bei insisted on going his own way, and he was a soldier to Dongwu. So in fact, under Liu Bei's account, Zhuge Liang may not be able to compare with Fazheng, at least Liu Bei can listen to Fazheng's words, but he may not necessarily listen to Zhuge Liang.

can persuade Liu Bei. Fa Zheng is indeed a capable person, but it cannot be said that Zhuge Liang has no ability. But Zhuge Liang couldn't persuade the most. This is because of what? In fact, there is also a reason why Liu Bei was not so obedient to Zhuge Liang's words before. At least Fa Zheng is on this, in fact, it is stronger than Zhuge Liang.

However, after the last, Zhuge Liang can be regarded as realizing one of his ideals, that is, he is in power, and he is the prime minister of Shu. Although six out of Qishan, the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains. failed to make great achievements, but after all, he still used the meager strength of Shu to fight against Wei for decades. It's just that his biggest ideal was still not realized, and he failed to realize Liu Bei's revival of the Han Dynasty and destroyed Cao Wei. Of course. The Wei State is powerful, and it is indeed not something that Zhuge Liang can destroy alone, and neither can the Wu State-

Zhuge Liang worshiped himself as his father, and Liu Bei was very happy in his heart. He has always remembered Sima Hui's words, "Wolong" and "Phoenix Chick" have one, but the world can be safe! If you have one, you can settle the world, so now Zhuge Kongming has joined his account, although Liu Bei didn't expect him to help him settle the world, but no matter how you say it, you can increase your own strength. Even the talents that Sima Hui and Xu Shu admire, can they still have the ability? Liu Bei absolutely didn't believe it.

After that, a few people chatted a lot, as for Xu Shu, he was familiar with Zhuge Liang, so he didn't need to say too much, and he didn't ask too much. But Liu Bei is different, he still has a lot of things to ask Zhuge Liang. This didn't mean anything else, it was just that he was simply asking for advice. And Liu Bei also discovered that Zhuge Liang knows a lot of things, basically he can answer everything you ask very well, and solve the problem. And Liu Bei secretly admired in his heart, he really had a lot of talent under his account.

As the saying goes, "It's a mule or a horse, take it out for a walk", as soon as he heard Zhuge Liang say so much, what level he is, of course Liu Bei is very clear.

And he had to say with admiration: "Mr. is talented, I am deeply admired!" ”

Zhuge Liang smiled: "The lord has won the award, but he can't read more books, and he has walked a lot in places!" ”

In front of his lord, Zhuge Liang is still relatively modest. In fact, Zhuge Liang is definitely not the kind of person who is particularly arrogant, but he must also have his own pride, which is indeed true. After all, a person who really has the ability or has great ability, how many people are not proud of themselves. So, what's more, it's him Zhuge Kongming-

When it was time for the dinner, although there were not too many sumptuous things in the countryside, Zhuge Liang also entertained Liu Bei and a few others. And the people in the village also sent a lot of things to Zhuge Liang. The people here are indeed very simple, and Mr. Zhuge Zhidao has a guest here, and he is still a distinguished guest, so he took out the good things at home and asked him to entertain Liu Bei and them. So although it was in the countryside, there was nothing missing from Liu Bei and them.

Liu Bei thinks that this is the most fragrant meal he has eaten in forty years, yes, he has now reached the age of not being confused, and eating well is not because of how delicious the food is, but because today he got the help of "Wolong" Zhuge Zhuge Kongming. Liu Bei has always said before, like a fish in water, like a fish in water, he definitely didn't say it casually. But he really has that feeling, he feels that if he has Zhuge Liang to help him, then he can achieve a career after all.

The princes of the world not only have Cao Mengde, Ma Mengqi, Yuan Benchu, Sun Bofu, Liu Jingsheng and others, but also have themselves, Liu Xuande, the uncle of the Han Emperor. Although his strength and strength are now at the bottom, with the assistance of such talents, why worry about it!

Liu Bei is indeed a capable person, he didn't say much when he persuaded Zhuge Liang before, but after that, he talked a lot with Zhuge Liang. And during this period. In front of Zhuge Liang, he expressed his ambition very clearly and clearly. After that, he cried again and said a bunch of things about his desire to revive the Han Dynasty, which really made Zhuge Liang feel that he was right to follow him Liu Bei and Liu Xuande.

Liu Bei, even when he lost badly, he never said that he never thought of giving up. He always has to do something big to achieve his goal. But after so many years, it has always been adrift. Sending people under the fence, although he has not changed his own ideals. But it has to be said that his confidence is diminishing, and this is true. And today he met Zhuge Liang, and his confidence was rekindled again. He believes in himself, and even more so in Zhuge Liang-

At night. Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang really slept together. Liu Bei really valued Zhuge Liang so much at this time. And he is very courteous to Zhuge Liang, and he definitely regards him as such a talent who can make him achieve great things. Han Gaozu also has a "Three Heroes of the Early Han Dynasty", so of course Liu Bei can't feel that he can do without talents, look at himself, there was no strategist before, and now he has become down.

He never thought that he was much worse than Cao Cao and Ma Chao. But the fact is that the two of them may pinch themselves to death with a slight movement of their fingers.

Zhilu said that his lord attached great importance to Zhuge Liang. And Tai Shici and Xu Shu are not jealous. For Tai Shici, he was the first to follow his lord, so he was very clear that now his lord's situation is really inseparable from the reason why there is one less strategist. And he also knew that this Mr. Kong Ming was really a great talent, so he was of course very happy to have such a talent to help, but there was nothing else. For him, the great cause of the Lord is the most important.

As for Xu Shu, it's even more nothing. Originally, Xu Shu was not a jealous person, otherwise he would not have brought his lord to Longzhong to find Zhuge Liang. Now his lord is just a place like Xinye, and it is still someone else's. So he doesn't have so many affairs yet, but with the increase of his strength and the expansion of his territory in the future, there will definitely be more and more things in the future, so he can't handle it himself. So now that Zhuge Liang has joined him, isn't he able to share a lot of his burden.

So Xu Shu is also too late to be happy, and he can think of something else. In fact, whether it is Tai Shici or Xu Shu, they are really thinking about themselves and their own lords. And they can actually see it clearly, only if their lord's power and strength increase, then they can get more benefits, and Zhuge Kongming is such a person who can increase his own power and strength-

On the second day, the four of them left Longzhong, and when Zhuge Liang left, he made it very clear to Xiao Tong that when the world was calm in the future, he would go back to Caolu to live in seclusion. This is not that Zhuge Liang is arrogant and arrogant, but at this time, he is indeed full of confidence. It's not that he underestimates the people of the world, in fact, this is also specially said to Liu Bei and Tai Shici, that's all. He didn't think that as soon as he came out of the mountain, he would be able to calm the world, so how could it be possible, where would he put everyone in the world.

As a result, when the four of them left Longzhong, a lot of people in the village came to bid farewell to Zhuge Liang. To say that Zhuge Liang has indeed done a lot of things for their village, so the people are grateful for his favor and specially see him off.

Zhuge Liang said goodbye to the villagers, although he is not from Longzhong, but he has been farming here for several years, so he is very familiar with the people here. If you don't have your own pursuits and ideas, you really want to live in seclusion here, but that's not good, you can't bury your skills, and sooner or later you will have to leave.

In this way, the four of them left Longzhong and returned to Xinye. And Liu Bei's biggest emotion when he came here is, how can he lie in the dragon (cage)!! ——

Cao Ren, Guo Huai, and Zhang He divided their troops to the north to take Anping and Hejian, and then entered Youzhou.

During this period, they passed through the territory of Julu, and then Cao Ren and others led a large army into Anping Kingdom. All the way to the north, it is to take the county and the south palace directly, and then come to the city of Xindu in Anping country. After taking Sindu, then your army can continue north to the river.

Cao Ren and the others all knew that their lord had not been able to capture Yecheng yet. After all, Yecheng is a strong city in the world, and it is not so easy to take. And now in Xindu, Anping Kingdom, to be honest, although Xindu is not like Yecheng, it is a famous fortified city in the world, but it is definitely not a city like Jingxian and Nangong before. After all, as the governing place of Anping Kingdom, Xindu is definitely not as ordinary as other cities, so Cao Ren and the others have to be cautious-

And at this time, it was in Cao Ren's Chinese army tent. And all the people were here, discussing the attack on Sindu.

For them, of course, the sooner the better, the sooner they can take Anping Kingdom and Hejian County as soon as possible, and they will be able to enter Youzhou as soon as possible. Just take Youzhou. Then it is the completion of the task of the main bus to himself and others. As for saying that they couldn't take Youzhou, everyone didn't think too much about it. They do have confidence in that. After all, it's not their team, but also the team of the Xiahou brothers in Qingzhou, they don't believe that the two armies can't take a Youzhou.

I only heard Cao Ren ask at this time: "Everyone, now that our army is under the city of Xindu, I don't know if you have any good strategies to break the enemy?" ”

Everyone said a few words, but Cao Ren didn't think it was too good. At this time, Guo Huai spoke, "Dashuai, I have met Zhang Nan, the general of Xindu, a few times, maybe I can enter the city to persuade his people to surrender to our army!" ”

Cao Ren is the same as Cao Cao. They all value Guo Huai very much. Zhilu said that he was a talent, so he had to pay attention to him. And now, when he heard Guo Huai say that he could persuade his people to surrender to his side, his eyes lit up, "Can Boji be sure?" ”

In Cao Ren's opinion, Zhang He was also a person from the Jizhou Army, and he stayed in the Jizhou Army longer than Guo Huai, but he didn't say anything to persuade Zhang Nanqi, but Guo Huai said so. So Cao Ren felt that Guo Huai should be somewhat sure, otherwise he wouldn't be like this.

Sure enough, I heard Guo Huai say: "Marshal, I am more than sixty percent sure that I can persuade Zhang Nanqi to join our army!" ”

Cao Ren slapped the table, "Okay, this matter will depend on Boji, take a good rest today, and go to Xindu tomorrow!" ”

"No!"

The matter was settled, and no one else had an opinion. In fact, for them, if Guo Huai can convince others, it is the best. Without attacking Xindu on his own, he can take the city without blood, which is indeed the best result. But even if Guo Huai fails and fails to convince Zhang Nan, then it doesn't matter, if you can't convince anyway, you can attack directly-

On the second day, Guo Huai went to Xindu alone to meet Zhang Nan, who had not met for a long time.

The two do know each other, but their friendship is not so deep, after all, they work under the same lord's account, so they naturally meet a few times. To say that Zhang He and Zhang Nan have seen more, but he also knows that he is not suitable to be a lobbyist, so Guo Huai wants to go, and naturally no one will stop him, or go to Xindu instead of him.

Zhang Nan met Guo Huai in person, although he was indeed not familiar with Guo Huai and others, but he also had his own ideas, so he deliberately pulled Guo Huai into his mansion outside the city-

After seeing Zhang Nan, Guo Huai smiled and said, "Brother Zhang, don't come to harm?" ”

Zhang Nan also smiled, "Boji, I haven't seen you for a long time, come on, sit down!" ”

"Brother Zhang is now stationed in Xindu, and he has great power, I didn't expect to remember my little brother!"

Zhang Nan said: "What is this Boji? Zhang had known Berji in his early years, how could he have forgotten it! It's you, Boji, who are under the Yanzhou military tent, I don't know what is going on now? ”

But looking at Guo Huai like this, Zhang Nan knew that others must be better than himself. Don't look at yourself as stationed in Xindu, but that's just the surface. How many pounds and taels do you have, and you still don't know what to do? The reason why he Yuan Benchu was able to let himself be stationed here was because there was really no one left, so he was considered a "big man in the man", so he sent himself. Isn't that what happened, or I don't want to be a guard. Maybe when the city is broken, he will die.

Zhang Nan is not afraid, but he has to be afraid, he is not timid, anyway, he must not have much guts. The Yanzhou army is famous, and he doesn't think that he can resist the attack of tens of thousands of people with just a few thousand county soldiers. So he actually thinks a lot, and there are a few people who don't plan for themselves, so for the sake of interests, he can do a lot of things-

Guo Huai smiled. Then he said that he was not bad, "If Brother Zhang can also join our army, I believe it will be better than my younger brother!" ”

Zhang Nan smiled, he was still self-aware, and his ability was comparable to that of Guo Huai. It can't be compared at all. He Guo Boji can be more used in front of Yuan Benchu in the Jizhou Army than before, but it doesn't mean that he can do it. However, the so-called "people go to high places." The water flows downward". Although I don't have a lot of ability, who doesn't want to develop in a better way, and the same is true for myself. It's just that there has always been an opportunity that is not too good, but maybe today is an opportunity? Not necessarily......

Even if Zhang Nan has no skills, he is not stupid after all, so of course he understands the intention of Guo Huai's letter. In fact, don't you want to join the Yanzhou Army? Think. Of course, he was moved, but his understanding of Yanzhou Jun and Cao Mengde was more hearsay, and he didn't have a real understanding of them at all. But at this time, Guo Huai came. Ask him a few words yourself, and he can always say it well. So after you understand some of the situation, you will naturally make a plan.

For a person like Zhang Nan, he is definitely not a die-hard loyalist, let alone loyal to Yuan Shao. As for whether to take refuge in the Yanzhou Army, to put it bluntly, it depends on how much benefit you can get, and that's it. Of course, he won't fail to do things that are good for him, so there are some things that can be imagined-

Zhang Nan smiled, "Boji, this is killing me, I'm not as good as Boji, I'm not as good as Boji!" ”

Guo Huai could only laugh in his heart, for him, as long as Zhang Nankaicheng could be allowed to surrender, it would be fine. Of course, he won't agree to Zhang Nan's bottom line unexpected things, but he still praises him and praises him, these things that don't need money, aren't they just saying it, anyway, they don't have to bear any responsibility, so naturally they don't say it in vain.

Guo Huai smiled and waved his hand at this time, "Okay, Brother Zhang, we are 'Ming people don't say dark words', I see you in my letter today, just to persuade Brother Zhang to join our army, I don't know what Brother Zhang thinks?" ”

In Zhang Nan's opinion, Guo Huai stepped into the topic too quickly, although he and he both knew about it, but this layer of window paper pierced too quickly. Although it didn't catch him off guard, it was indeed unexpected by him-

So at this time, Zhang Nan was slightly stunned when he heard this, he didn't pretend to be, but it was true, but he reacted immediately.

For him, Guo Huai's words at this time were indeed beyond his expectations, but they were not within his control, so at this time he said: "Boji, I think it's good now, it's good!" ”

After speaking, he laughed a few times, which made people feel that he was very unconfident. This is indeed the case, Zhang Nan said that he was doing well in the Jizhou Army, didn't he have confidence. He never thought that he was good in the Jizhou Army, but he felt that Guo Huai was in the Yanzhou Army, and he thought it was good, and this was his feeling.

Guo Huai sneered in his heart, and said in his heart that you Zhang Nan can tell the truth, it's good to be in the Jizhou Army, if it's really good, it's weird, can I believe you?

Guo Huai naturally didn't believe Zhang Nan's words, but after thinking about it, he said to Zhang Nan: "In this case, it's the junior brother who is bothering Brother Zhang today, Brother Zhang, the junior brother is leaving!" ”

As he spoke, Guo Huai got up and left. As a result, Zhang Nan was in a hurry, and he thought that Guo Huai was really leaving. Because in his view, although the Yanzhou army should be bound to win the letter, it is not inevitable whether to surrender to himself or not. In other words, he can take refuge in the Yanzhou Army. That's best for them. But if you don't take refuge in others, they will attack the city directly, and you can still persuade yourself like that? How can it be!

So as soon as Guo Huai got up and was about to leave, Zhang Nan saw that he would definitely not be able to do it. For him, if he was killed in a siege or captured, it would definitely be better to surrender at this time. So he also stood up directly at this time and stopped Guo Huai.

"Brother Zhang, what do you mean?"

Zhang Nan smiled bitterly, "Boji, why rush back, there is something to say, there is something to say!" ”

Guo Huai despised Zhang Nan in his heart. He also had to despise him, he wanted to surrender in his heart, but he didn't say it, he had to wait for himself to beg him. If you want to say that you are really true, there is him Zhang Nan and less Zhang Nan. It really didn't make a big difference. However, he surrendered directly. You can just lose a little less. With Cao Zixiao's love for his soldiers so much, of course he is happy to do so, that's what happened. If it were someone else, it would be estimated that they would directly attack the city at this time-

Guo Huai nodded at this time, "Okay, since Brother Zhang wants it so much." The little brother is very gracious! ”

"That's how it should be, that's how it should be, sit!"

Zhang Nan asked Guo Huai to sit down again, and then this time he asked first: "What Boji said before." Let me join the Yanzhou Army? ”

Guo Huai said with a smile, "Brother Zhang is right, this is exactly what the little brother meant, the big marshal specially let the little brother come, just to persuade Brother Zhang to join our army!" But ......"

Speaking of this, Guo Huai shook his head, "It's a pity, there are some things that can't be forced, since Brother Zhang doesn't have that will, then the younger brother naturally won't force it." After all, it's 'everyone has their own ambitions, why bother to be strong'! ”

Zhang Nan heard Guo Huai say this, if Guo Huai wasn't here, he really wanted to have two mouths. Zhang Nan said in his heart at this time that he had just said that he had been well treated in the Jizhou Army, so he could not say that he had been treated badly at this time. But I'm going to have to pull this back, yes, if I don't......

Thinking of this, Zhang Nan hurriedly smiled, "Boji, Boji, what I said before, Boji just listened to it." In fact, to be honest, I think Boji should be well treated in the Yanzhou Army now, why don't Boji talk about the Yanzhou Army and Cao Gong? ”

Guo Huaixin said, I'm not afraid that you are interested, but I am afraid that you are not interested. Since you can see yourself and say this to yourself, it means that you do mean this, but before you said that you were doing well in the Jizhou Army, hehe, if that's the case, why do you Zhang Nan see me today?

For Zhang Nanqi, Guo Huai is much stronger than him, not to mention that he is eaten to death, it is indeed about the same. At least Zhang Nan's thoughts are basically understood by Guo Huai, so can he still escape Guo Huai's palm.

"Since Brother Zhang is interested in listening, then the younger brother will talk about it well, if you want to talk about the lord, then ......"

Guo Huai can come to be a lobbyist in person, of course he is articulate and eloquent, so some of Cao Cao's deeds let him tell as if he had seen them with his own eyes. As a person who admires and worships Cao Cao to such a person, Guo Huai can say that his understanding of some of his lord's deeds is definitely much better known than ordinary people. So he talked for an hour, and he didn't finish it.

Zhang Nan listened, and secretly said in his heart, this Guo Huai Guo Boji is really powerful, Cao Mengde's deeds, he knows the Tao? It is estimated that even his subordinates can't all know the Dao, or remember them all. He doesn't know about Cao Cao, Guo Huai and his respect for Cao Cao, the key is that he and Guo Huai are not familiar with each other, even other people don't know about Guo Huai, let alone him-

Finally finished listening to Guo Huai's speech, Zhang Nan smiled, "I really don't know the way, it turns out that Boji actually knows so much about the way!" ”

Guo Huai also smiled and said: "Brother Zhang doesn't know, the lord is the person who the younger brother admires the most, so naturally he ......"

Zhang Nan nodded, "I understand what Boji said!" ”

I don't know what he understood, but he understood anyway. Guo Huai thought he understood.

At this time, Zhang Nan asked again, "Why don't you talk about the Yanzhou Army in Boji?" ”

"Okay, since Brother Zhang is interested, then the younger brother is naturally 'knowing everything, saying everything'!"

"Thank you Boji!"

"Brother Zhang doesn't have to be so polite! If you want to talk about our army, then ......"

Guo Huai As long as he said something he was particularly familiar with, it was endless, and he couldn't interrupt him even if he kept talking. Of course, he did it on purpose. Guo Huai has no sense of proportion if he speaks. Nothing is said outside, and it is impossible for Cao Ren to let him come. And even if Guo Huai talks endlessly, he can grasp himself, not control himself.

So Zhang Nan thought that Guo Huai was a little excited, but in fact, he was not. It's all an illusion, just for Zhang Nan to see. That's it—

After listening to Guo Huai's introduction of the Yanzhou Army. Zhang Nan really wants to join it.

For him, since he has already learned about Cao Cao, Cao Mengde, and the Yanzhou Army, his goal has been achieved, and in this case, he should have made a decision. At least Zhang Nan doesn't kill, he also knows the way. At this time, Kaesong surrendered better than any other time, and he still has an acquaintance, that is, Guo Huai Guo Boji, who is not far from him. And he also knows the way. Zhang He and Zhang Junyi are also in the Yanzhou Army, and it seems that they are still outside the Xindu City, no matter what, he also knows himself.

Therefore, Zhang Nan felt that even if he was not familiar with Zhang He, at a critical time, he only needed to say a word to allow himself to gain a foothold in the Yanzhou Army. So at this time, he had already made a decision and made up his mind. Some things are fleeting, so Zhang Nan also knows that without further ado, that's it.

As a result, at this time, Guo Huai got up and said goodbye, "I came to see Brother Zhang today, and I have talked about the old days, and the younger brother is ......."

However, when the three words of farewell were not spoken, Guo Huai was stopped by Zhang Nan again, "Boji, Boji, don't go, don't, come, please sit!" ”

Zhang Nanxin said, Boji, if you really leave, where will I go to find wealth and glory. I'm relying on you now, so you can't help but pull me. But he couldn't say this directly, just looked at Guo Huai's eyes, which were extremely eager.

Of course, Guo Huai knew what Zhang Nan was going to do, but he still pretended to be puzzled, "This, what does Brother Zhang mean, before Brother Zhang wanted to know some of the deeds and situations of the lord and the Yanzhou army, the younger brother told Brother Zhang." But Brother Zhang is like this, is it because he wants to force the younger brother to stay? ”

When Zhang Nan heard this, he said in his heart, do I dare to force you Guo Huai and Guo Boji to stay, don't dare, don't dare! ——

The third time Guo Huai sat down, this time Zhang Nancai said, he sighed first, "Alas, don't hide it from Boji, in fact, after listening to what you said from Boji, I really yearn to join the Yanzhou Army!" ”

When Guo Huai heard this, he didn't say anything like you said that you were doing well in the Jizhou Army before, he just asked, "Brother Zhang, is this true?" ”

When Zhang Nan heard this, he straightened his chest, "That's natural, if it's false, the sky will thunder!" ”

Guo Huai was funny in his heart, but he couldn't laugh out, "Okay, people say 'those who know the times are Junjie', Brother Zhang is the Junjie of the Junjie!" ”

Zhang Nan was a little embarrassed by this, knowing that Guo Huai's words were all praised by him, but he still liked to listen to them.

I only heard Guo Huai is continued, "Brother Zhang has thought about it, do you really want to join my Yanzhou army?" ”

Zhang Nan nodded hurriedly, "Of course, the so-called 'gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase', absolutely change the reason for repentance!" ”

Guo Huai slapped the table, "Okay, it's a blessing that Brother Zhang can abandon the darkness and turn to the light like this!" ”

Zhang Nan also smiled, "At that time, it will be inevitable that Boji will introduce me with good words!" ”

"Everything is wrapped up in the little brother, Brother Zhang can rest assured!"

The two of them were in Xindu, and they reached an agreement, and tomorrow Zhang Nan will surrender in Kaecheng and surrender to the Yanzhou army. But when the time comes, the handover will be Cao Ren's, and there is almost nothing to do with Guo Huai, after all, Cao Ren is the coach-

After returning to his camp from Xindu, after seeing Cao Ren and the others, Guo Huai told everyone what he had done in Xindu City, and everyone couldn't stop nodding. Of course, he is satisfied with Guo Huai, after all, if he can take Xindu without letting his own soldiers be killed or injured, it is indeed better than anything else.

On the second day, sure enough, when the hour came, Zhang Nan opened the gate of the capital of Xin, and then surrendered to the Yanzhou army. Cao Ren was quite satisfied with Zhang Nan's actions, and personally encouraged a few words, which made Zhang Nan a little flattered. Although Cao Ren is not Cao Cao, no matter what, Cao Ren Cao Zixiao's reputation is not comparable to himself. As a coach, people can encourage themselves and say a few words to themselves, which is good, after all, he is a person who has just taken refuge.

Cao Ren and the others entered Xindu, and so far, the Yanzhou army has taken the Xindu City of Anping without blood. Guo Huai personally lobbied Zhang Nan, the general of Xindu, and made great contributions, and lived up to Cao Cao and Cao Ren's expectations of him-

Although Cao Cao has not been able to take Yecheng, but along the way of dividing his troops, Cao Ren has already captured the Xindu City of Anping Kingdom, and at this time, Ma Chao has already led his troops to the Yang City of Julu.

From Zhongshan all the way south, the small county towns passed through were all looking at the wind, after all, they were all there, and they couldn't beat the Liangzhou army. Moreover, now Jizhou is under the joint attack of the Liangzhou Army and the Yanzhou Army, so the officials in many counties in Jizhou have little confidence to fight with the Liangzhou Army. Some of them just resisted for a day or two, and then let the Liangzhou army break through the city. After all, it is like Yizhou's Yuxian and Chengdu, as well as Jinyang and Yecheng in Jizhou. After all, there are still a few strong cities in the world, and more are just ordinary cities.

Lu Kuang, the defender of Yang's city, had already learned that Ma Chao had come to the outside of Yang's city with an army of more than 80,000. For him, he was really afraid, but he was more excited than afraid. Why do you say this, it is because he has long wanted to meet the Liangzhou army for a while, of course, Lu Kuang does not think that he will definitely be able to defeat the Liangzhou army, but for such a world-famous army, if he goes to fight in person once, he must have regrets as a general.

There are not so many people who are loyal to Yuan Shao, and he Lu Kuang is naturally not either. He wanted to fight Ma Chao, more for himself, not because of others. His idea is simple, if he can't beat it, he will run away. But if you want to miss the battle with today's powerful army, then you have to say that you will regret it. Lu Kuang never thought of himself as a belligerent person, but to be honest, he didn't know what Lu Dao was for, so he wanted to fight with the Liangzhou army, so for today, he had indeed been preparing for a long time.

Although it is not said that it is ten years to sharpen a sword, it is true that he has been preparing for a long time, just waiting for Ma Chao to bring the army to come. He originally thought that it was more likely that Cao Cao would lead the troops, but as he said, Ma Chao came. (To be continued......)
