Xiangyang.

Located in the upper reaches of the Han River, Tongguanlong, Wuyue, Wanluo in the north, Yunnan and Guizhou in the south, the waterway transportation is developed, since ancient times, Xiangyang is the place where soldiers must fight.

Successfully retracted Nanyang, Jingzhou was jubilant, and even Liu Biao, who was originally in poor health, became radiant, and his body seemed to have changed for the better all of a sudden.

On this day, someone came to report, Xiliang Zhang Xiu asked to see.

Liu Biao was stunned for a moment, and muttered suspiciously, "Why did he come to Xiangyang?" ”

Puzzled, Liu Biao invited Kuai Yue to discuss, and Kuai Yue smiled loudly, "Lord, there is something you may not know, it is said that Zhang Xiu's uncle Zhang Ji was killed by Jia Xu." ”

"Oh?" Liu Biao showed a suddenly realized expression, waved his hand, and asked people to bring Zhang Xiu into the state pastor's mansion.

After seeing Zhang Xiu, Liu Biao's eyes suddenly lit up, and he secretly praised in his heart, "What a mighty general!" ”

Zhang Xiu wears a tiger helmet, a chain armor, a red robe, embroidered the sea cliff, to that station, a group of martial spirit, so not majestic.

Zhang Xiu pounced and knelt in front of Liu Biao, "Embroidery has a deep hatred of blood, but there is nowhere to run, there is no tile roof on the top, and there is no place to stand on the cone, and I hope that Ming Gong will not give up and give it to the next place to live." ”

Zhang Xiu lowered his posture, his expression was respectful, and his noble head was also deeply lowered.

Zhang Xiu wanted to defect to herself, which was naturally very happy for Liu Biao, she glanced at Kuai Yue and asked with her eyes.

Kuai Yue nodded, he had already sent a detailed investigation to find out, Zhang Xiu now hated Zhao Yun to the core, and it was said that the two had a fight.

"General Zhang, let me ask you? Why was Zhao Yun willing to let you live in the past? ”

"I helped him, if I didn't help, he might not be able to rescue the Son of Heaven from Chang'an, but hateful, I can't kill him now."

Kuai Yue nodded, "In that case, you can stay in Wancheng, I believe you will be happy to go there to guard." ”

Wancheng is adjacent to Nanyang and is the closest to Zhao Yun's territory, and once the war starts, Zhang Xiu will be the first to resist Zhao Yun's troops.

Zhang Xiu repeatedly thanked him, "Thank you to the lord, thank you to the military advisor, embroider the liver and brain, and it is difficult to repay the grace of the king." ”

After waiting for Zhang Xiu to go down, Liu Biao was a little uneasy, "Different degrees, we take in Zhang Xiu, if Zhao Yun knows, how can he not blame us, at this time, for a Zhang Xiu, blame Zhao Yun, I always feel that it is not appropriate." ”

Kuai Yue smiled and said, "Lord, now the situation has changed, the Son of Heaven is not in Luoyang, but in Yanzhou, we don't have to look at Zhao Yun's face in everything." ”

Liu Biao sighed, "But Zhao Yun is by no means an idle person, even if the Son of Heaven is not by his side, he can't provoke him for no reason." ”

The conversation between the two was heard by Mrs. Cai, who was hiding behind the screen, and Mrs. Cai pursed her lips and smiled, "Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun, maybe you will suffer a little, and you will remember me in your heart." ”

Now the situation in the Central Plains is full of wars, and the most stable one is Jingzhou.

Fighting a war means consuming strength, making Jingzhou as stable as ever, plus recovering Nanyang, and getting Zhang Xiu, a fierce general, has increased its strength instead of decreasing.

Although Zhao Yun said that it was a misunderstanding, Hu Chuquan didn't dare to really treat this matter as a misunderstanding.

In order to win Zhao Yun's trust and ease the contradictions between the two sides, Hu Chuquan ordered Qubei to be arrested, not only to deprive him of the title of the Right Virtuous King, but also to publicly punish him.

After hearing about this, Zhao Yun came to see Hu Chuquan overnight.

"General Zhao, come here late at night, I don't know why?" Hu Chuquan warmly welcomed Zhao Yun into the big tent.

Zhao Yun glanced at him and smiled slightly, "Lord Shan Yu asked knowingly, I heard that you are going to be executed?" ”

"Yes."

Zhao Yun shook his head, "I don't think it's necessary to be like this, it's not difficult to kill one to be humble, but the difficult thing is that it can't eliminate the estrangement between the Han and the Huns, if you kill the humble, the people who go to the humble will definitely not accept it, and those soldiers who were originally loyal to the humble will also disagree, this is not what I want to see." ”

Hu Chuquan was surprised, "General Zhao, if you go to make trouble on the lowly offense, you will die innocently, and the general actually wants to intercede with him, which is really incomprehensible." ”

"It's easy to kill people, but it's hard to collect hearts." Zhao Yun raised his eyes to look at him and sighed leisurely.

The previous Wuhuan people are an example, until now, they still can't really return to Zhao Yun, defeating a nation, and conquering a nation are two completely different things.

But no matter what kind of enemy Zhao Yun treats, at the beginning, he will never be polite, this is a troubled world full of swords, it is a world of the weak and the strong, only by letting the enemy understand your strength, can you be deterred, as soon as you come up, you expect to let the other party raise your hand to throw, that is not realistic.

Zhao Yun personally came forward to intercede on behalf of him, and Hu Chuquan naturally did not refuse.

After that, Zhao Yun saw Qubei alone, Qubei originally thought that he was dead, he was very unwilling, obviously Liu Bao instructed him to do this, but it was he who was killed, from beginning to end, Liu Bao had nothing to do.

Now that I learned that I was released, it was Zhao Yun who begged for himself, and looked at Zhao Yun with a complicated mood, Zhao Yun's mind and bearing, let me go to Humility and be convinced, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly knelt on the ground for Zhao Yun, "General, I will lead the troops to kill you, it is not a pity to die, but the general not only does not blame me, but also saved me with virtue, and I am grateful to be humiliated, if the general does not give up, in the future, this life will be handed over to the general." ”

Going to humility is not bad in nature, Zhao Yun remembered that in the history books, he also had a holy drive with Bai Bojun.

"This matter is over, if I were you, I might be like you." Zhao Yun smiled and helped him up from the ground, "If I am weak and defeated, I will not be reconciled." ”

He looked at Zhao Yun with wide eyes, but he didn't expect that Zhao Yun would say this to him.

"This world has long been ruined, chaos and chaos, even if I don't come to fight the Huns, sooner or later, someone else will come. Whoever has strong strength and hard fists will be able to gain the upper hand, I killed tens of thousands of your Huns before, and I was very unhappy in my heart, but this is no choice. If I do not do anything to you, you will continue to cross the border and plunder your property and women, and kill countless innocent people, and those who have been harmed by you, who will bring justice to them? ”

Go humble and silent, even if Zhao Yun doesn't explain, he knows in his heart that Sili and the Southern Xiongnu border each other, and friction and conflict are inevitable, either you conquer me, or I will level you? This is normal.

No matter whether they are humble or not, they cannot change the reality that the Southern Xiongnu were defeated by Zhao Yun.

If you are defeated, you must surrender!

In this attack, Zhao Yun only had eighteen guards around him, but Qubei still did not succeed, he was completely convinced of Zhao Yun's courage and skills, and this time, Zhao Yun ignored personal grievances and interceded for him, which made Qubei even more impressed.
