Chapter 150: Dances with Wolves
Zhang Xiang left the Zou Mansion, and Liu Yu's personality gradually became clear, whether Zhang Xiang was a good person or a bad person, in fact, he did not have a direct impact on Zhang Xiang, but made Zhang Xiang better.
If Liu Yu is really so benevolent, it will be much more difficult for Zhang Xiang to make a move, since the relationship between Liu Yu and the Hu people is not ordinary, then Zhang Xiang wants to take advantage of it, and the state is the same as Youzhou, which is a border state and county of the Han Dynasty.
Hu people will always be a long-term problem, Zhang Xiang is very confident that he can be like Gongsun Zhan, but he can't be like Liu Yu, of course Zhang Xiang does not want to deliberately raise Hu.
Instead, he used Liu Yu's relationship to stabilize the Hu people, so that Zhang Xiang could free up more troops to do bigger things, instead of wasting troops on the Hu people, which made no sense at all.
Among Zhang Xiang's personal guards, there are a few Wuheng people, these Hu people are all the original iron barbarian clansmen, and they have followed Zhang Xiang very early, loyalty is not a problem, and they can just use them to play a show.
Zhang Xiang returned to the house that made him very uncomfortable, and sent someone to invite Liu Yu, Liu Yu received Zhang Xiang's invitation very strangely, at this time, it was normal for Gongsun Zan or Yuan Shao to send an invitation.
It's not normal for Zhang Xiang to send an invitation, the relationship between Liu Yu and Zhang Xiang doesn't seem to be so close, if Zhang Xiang wasn't from Youzhou and happened to appear in Zhuo County, Liu Yu wouldn't have entertained him at all.
At last night's birthday banquet, Liu Yu had a good impression of Zhang Xiang, at least he helped him, from the official position, the two of them belong to the same state pastor, and no one is high or low, Liu Yu can't be arrogant.
Liu Yu finally decided to go on a trip, Liu Yu knows how to be sophisticated, so he gave a heavy gift, in Zhang Xiang's opinion, this heavy gift is very heavy, which can make up for the loss of the birthday gift.
Zhang Xiang: "Lord Zhou Mu is too polite. I'm just inviting you to a light meal to talk about things, and this is your place again, so this gift is a bit too heavy! ”
Liu Yu: "You and I both belong to the state pastor, Youzhou and the state are originally adjacent, and we have to communicate with each other about everything, and this gift is not important at all." In the old man's opinion, this is a lot lighter, and it is just a meeting gift. ”
Zhang Xiang finally understood what it meant to be wealthy, but the heavy gift in his eyes became a meeting gift in people's mouths. The Han clan relatives are not as depressed as Liu Bei.
Zhang Xiang: "Since this kid accepted it, I actually asked Liu Zhoumu to come over today, just to talk about the cooperation between the two sides." Liu Yu was a little uncomfortable with Zhang Xiang's straight to the point.
He is used to going around and around in the officialdom, but cooperation is exactly what Liu Yu wants to see, "Why does cooperation choose an old man?" As far as I know, you and Gongsun Boqi are brothers, and the relationship is much closer! ”
Zhang Xiang: "In fact, the situation in Youzhou has gradually become clearer. Now there are three forces in Youzhou, Gongsun Chan has a heavy army but has no appearance, Yuan Shao is eyeing but the whip is beyond the reach, only you can't bear it but people dare not ignore it, of course you have to choose those who have the potential to choose allies. ”
Liu Yu: "Zifeng, you really dare to put gold on the old man's face!" The power of the old man of the three forces in Youzhou is the weakest, but it has become impossible to ignore in your mouth, you are really elevated. ”
Zhang Xiang clapped his hands and walked out, "Brother Bo'an, can you tell where this person is from?" Zhang Xiang suddenly said to him left and right. made Liu Yu unable to figure out the context.
Liu Yu: "This person should be from Wuheng!" I didn't expect that Zifeng also had Hu people under his command, which is very similar to us. "Zhang Xiang doesn't think he is very similar to Liu Yu, an old bastard.
Zhang Xiang: "Brother Bo'an has good eyesight. This person is indeed a Wuheng person, and his status among the Wuheng people is not low, I learned some things about you from him, but these things don't seem to be a good thing for the Han people! ”
usually doesn't do bad things, and is not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night, Liu Yu doesn't do bad things. Zhang Xiang was a little panicked when he was like this, he has always been very hidden, and he shouldn't show any flaws!
Zhang Xiang clapped his hands again, Zhang Fei, Zhou Cang, Han Juzi and others appeared outside the door, and now Liu Yu also felt that the situation was critical, Zhang Xiang, this kid seemed to be ruthless! I really didn't expect it.
Liu Yu has also experienced some strong winds and waves. Naturally, he will not be intimidated by Zhang Xiang's little trick, "Zifeng's hospitality is really special!" Don't forget that this is Youzhou. ”
Zhang Xiang: "Youzhou is too big, and it's not Brother Bo'an alone, at least in this mansion, it is Zhang Xiang who says, I almost forgot that this mansion seems to have been given to me by you Liu Yu." ”
Liu Yu: "Zhang Xiang, what do you want to do?" The two sides began to call him by name, Zhang Fei and others also showed their weapons, and Zhang Xiang's personal guards also surrounded Liu Yu's men, as long as Zhang Xiang ordered to eat Liu Yu at any time.
Zhang Xiang: "What do I want to do, of course I want you to answer my question, since I dare to bring this Wuheng person, at least I know some of the truth, Liu Yu, you'd better not lie to me." “
Liu Yu had already guessed that Zhang Xiang knew some inside information, but it was not something he could grasp how much he knew, "The relationship between the old man and the Wuheng people is not bad, at least I know what role you Zhang Xiang played in the troubles of Lou." ”
Liu Yu's anti-guest trick is not pretty, and Zhang Xiang didn't expect that Lou An's troubles would spread from the Wuheng people, "Brother Bo'an, you are actually right about one thing, we are like-minded people, and I just want to let the two sides see each other frankly today." “
Zhang Xiang waved his hand, Zhang Fei and the others withdrew their weapons, and Liu Yu took a sip of tea, "Maybe you are the same but the direction is different, you are an unguessable kid, why should I choose to cooperate with you?" “
Zhang Xiang: "Because you can't find another person, I am your only choice, Yuan Shao can tolerate you but can't give you freedom, Gongsun Chan can kill you, and he can't give you freedom, only I can save you and give you freedom, does this still need to be considered?" “
Liu Yu: "It's really nice to say, the old man was almost deceived in the past, but unfortunately Youzhou is not the three major forces, but the four major forces, isn't your Zhang Xiang's merge state also peeping at Youzhou?" And the voice of the people in Youzhou is also good, and it can even be said that you are the biggest threat to the old man. “
In fact, Liu Yu at this time was already sure that Zhang Xiang would not make a move, so he said that both sides of this game of chess began to play, and it was necessary to guess who was the first move, and this first move was very important.
Zhang Xiang: "In addition to being close to Youzhou, it is also close to Yongzhou, Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu are not fuel-efficient lamps, even if I want to peep into Youzhou, at least I can sort out the back road, it is very likely that I haven't done it yet, you will be annexed by the other two, and the result may not be like this in a few more years, but unfortunately the other two will not give you a few years of time." “
Liu Yu: "Cooperation requires the willingness of both parties, I want to know what kind of conditions you can come up with to cooperate with me?" It won't just be empty teeth! "Liu Yu wants to take the lead.
Zhang Xiang never cared who came first, all he cared about was the result, he didn't care about the process for a while, and Zhang Xiang let him out, "I can help you contain Gongsun Zhan." "Gongsun Chan is indeed a trouble, of course it is best if you can contain it, but what about Yuan Shao?" Liu Yu began to inch in, and he didn't pretend in front of Zhang Xiang, that look was really disgusting.
Zhang Xiang: "Of course you have to deal with Yuan Shao, don't be too greedy, don't be too greedy, I'll deal with it, I'm not your subordinate, you'd better figure out the situation, this cooperation is not what I beg you." “
Liu Yu: "The young man is really angry, and Old Man Yuan Shao can deal with it, so let's cooperate like this!" "Zhang Xiang is not a fool, Zhang Xiang didn't get anything from this cooperation?
Zhang Xiang: "Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao were originally dealing with you, I just helped you, but there is no help in the world for no reason, I want all the Xianbei people in your hands." ”
The Xianbei people are the largest Hu people on the border of the Han Dynasty, and Liu Yu spent a lot of effort in order to befriend the Xianbei people, how could Zhang Xiang be so cheap?
Liu Yu: "The relationship between Xianbei people Zhang Xiang has too much appetite!" If that were the case, we wouldn't need to cooperate. Zhang Xiang thought to himself, Liu Yu, do you think that cooperation or non-cooperation is up to you?
Old guy, you've already leaked, do you still want to pretend to be big here? However, Zhang Xiang didn't want to expose it in person, otherwise it would be difficult for both sides to step down, "I'm helping you!" I don't seem to have much to lose if the cooperation between the two sides fails, but can you handle it? ”
Zhang Xiang really nodded at him like this, everything has to consider the consequences, and Liu Yu is also weighing the pros and cons, "The old man can agree to your conditions, but you have to help me rescue my son Liu He from Dong Zhuo." ”
It was not easy for Zhang Xiang to save someone from Dong Zhuo's side, but Zhang Xiang's reward was very rich, so Zhang Xiang had to do it. "I can do my best."
Liu Yu: "I want to do my best, if I don't see my son, don't talk about the cooperation between our two sides." "When it comes to family affection in a negotiation, it becomes inexplicable.
Family affection is a proposition that cannot be understood by logic, Zhang Xiang looks at Liu Yu and doesn't look like he is telling a lie, let's stabilize it first! "I will definitely rescue Liu He."
Liu Yu heard a satisfactory answer from Zhang Xiang, the cooperation between the two sides has been preliminarily completed, Liu Yu doesn't want to stay for a moment, what he said today is something he never dared to say before.
Liu Yu still needs someone to calm down, Liu Yu left the house Zhang Xiang's people did not stop him, Zhang Xiang knew that after today, the situation in Youzhou would become different, and it was really impossible to say who would kill the deer, but at least Zhang Xiang would not give up, and finally Zhang Xiang decided that he still had to go to Chang'an in person, otherwise Liu He really couldn't save it.
