Chapter 558: The Barbarians Chase Guests
A prince like Sun Ce was originally a well-known figure in the world, and that military general didn't want to kill him and get a name in history, Xu Chu was a close minister and confidant of Cao Cao's side, so it can be said that there is no shortage. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Xu Chu is not a greedy person either, he usually acts on Cao Cao's orders and doesn't care about anything.
But in the face of Sun Ce, he had to care, reputation was what Xu Chu cared about the most, so he would ask Cao Cao for guilt, this time Cao Cao also felt that it was a pity, after all, there are not many opportunities like this.
Cao Cao wanted to arrange for someone to release cold arrows, but unfortunately it was too far away, and Cao Cao also wanted to go further, but further would startle the snake.
Cao Cao could only give up in the end, wasting this opportunity in vain, "Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers." Cao Cao didn't use too many words to comfort Xu Chu, because now Cao Cao also needs people's comfort.
In order to keep Sun Ce, Cao Cao used Gaotang County as a bargaining chip, Gaotang County is in Qingzhou, and now it is probably under Zhang Xiang's control, but Cao's soldiers and generals do not know.
Cao Cao can be said to have drawn a big cake for everyone to eat, which is similar to Wangmei quenching thirst.
Cao Cao has not done this kind of thing once or twice, Cao Cao is a master of deceiving people, especially deceiving his own people, it is very easy to get caught.
The land of a county can be said to be the largest fiefdom, if it is under the premise of the sub-feudal system, it can be said to be a hegemon, and this should be the biggest reward when the troubled times come!
Even Zhang Xiang didn't have such a big hand, and the only bit of majesty left in the Han family was really stepped on by Zhang Xiang and Cao Cao!
That's why Liu Bei has lived to this day, it is because there are still people loyal to the Han family in this world, Liu Bei is the last face of the Han family, of course, Zhang Xiang and Cao Cao want to tear him apart, but they don't tear it off every time for various reasons.
Cao Cao will not let go of this opportunity this time, and the soldiers and soldiers of Cao are now crazy.
Everyone knows that Sun Ce is not so easy to kill, and if he is easy to kill, he is not the little overlord of Jiangdong, but maybe the blind cat has met a dead mouse? This kind of thing is very common on the battlefield.
There must be brave men under heavy rewards, and it is also a common means for generals on the battlefield.
But every time there are lucky people who get it, it suddenly becomes different from before, which is enviable!
Maybe Sun Ce's head is stretched out in front of him, and maybe he can cut it off, the overlord of Chu can kill himself in Wujiang, and finally he is cheaper than a nobody, what is Sun Ce's little overlord?
There are many people who think like this, and Sun Ce's side also feels a lot of pressure.
In the land of a county, let alone the people below, Sun Ce was moved, Zhou Yu has always stood by Sun Ce's side, for fear that Sun Ce will be calculated by the villain.
Once Sun Ce has something, this battle will not have to be fought.
Even if he wins, he will lose, Sun Ce's side is defending Xinye, Liu Bei's side is not idle, Guan Yu and Zhao Yun can be said to have swept away outside Xiangyang City, of course, this is related to Cao Ren's collection of elites.
Now the elite of the Cao army near Xiangyang are all in Xiangyang City, and the other counties are just some rabble.
In the face of Guan Yu and Zhao Yun's ability to resist, it is already commendable courage, even if the city surrenders, it should be.
But Zhuge Liang is not near Xiangyang, but in Jiaozhou, and now Zhuge Liang can only invite reinforcements to Shixie, Zhuge Liang also brought Ma Chao, Ma Chao is kind to Shixie.
This is also the reason why Zhuge Liang chose Ma Chao, and the current situation in Jiaozhou is not so complicated.
Shi Xie mastered the east of Jiaozhou, Meng Shu mastered the west of Jiaozhou, and the southern barbarians under Meng Huo also came to Jiaozhou completely from Yizhou, of course, Meng Huo didn't know that Zhu Rong was not dead, otherwise things would not be so simple.
The Tujia people under Lin Xi also left their homeland and settled in the area closest to Yizhou, led by Ling Lao, while Lin Xi followed Zhang Xiang back to Chang'an.
Although he has no official position, he has won Zhang Xiang's trust.
Shi Xie also seemed to have lost his ambition all of a sudden, satisfied with everything he had now, and did not attack rashly, and the barbarians' provocation Shi Xie also turned a blind eye.
Recently, Liu Bei has fallen into a bitter battle, and Zhuge Liang doesn't know much about the affairs of Jiaozhou, and now Zhuge Liang doesn't know whether Shixie's side is pretending to be or has other plans.
can only see one side first, Ma Chao's face is more useful than Zhuge Liang, if it weren't for Ma Chao, Zhuge Liang might not be able to see Shixie.
The majestic and heroic hair on Shi Xie's body is gone, some are just heroes in the twilight, and it is clear whether it is true or false.
This is the last thing Zhuge Liang wants to see, such a Shixie will not send troops to support Liu Bei, it will be a ruin!
Zhuge Liang: "Shizhou Mu is fine...."
Before Zhuge Liang could continue, Shi Xie stretched out his hand to stop, "Mr. Zhuge , you have seen everything I look like now, if I send troops, I will have no money left." ”
"The state pastor should think about the children and grandchildren of the Shi family!"
Shi Xie: "Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, they can eat as much as they have, the Shi family has no talented children and grandchildren, all of them are a group of wine bags and rice bags, I am too spoiled to them, let it be fate!" ”
Zhuge Liang: "Then at least help them get a rich man!" ”
Shi Xie: "The old man can take refuge in anyone who can be a rich man for his children and grandchildren, Zhuge Liang, do you know what your biggest weakness is?" It's because you're too confident, so confident that you don't take everyone in your eyes, there are so many princes in the world, you just choose Liu Bei, who is the most unlikely to succeed. ”
"The imperial uncle and the Han family are orthodox, why can't it be done."
"When who else cares about it today, the most disobedient people in the world are the princes from all walks of life, Liu Bei has to confront the princes from all walks of life if he wants to succeed, the old man is getting old but he sees it more and more clearly."
Zhuge Liang: "Then let's change the question, do you choose Zhang Xiang or Cao Cao." ”
"Does it matter? It's all a loss anyway. ”
"Of course it's very important, Zhang Xiang and Cao Cao are different, then it depends on who is generous, who can give more benefits to his descendants, Cao Cao is very generous but will not let go of the state pastor, but Zhang Xiang may let you go."
Shi Xie: "Mr. Zhuge said that he laughed, Zhang Xiang will not let me go." ”
"This is not necessarily, Zhang Xiang's actions have always been unestimated, he has let go of a lot of enemy generals, if Zhang Xiang really wants the life of the state pastor, Jiaozhou should not be in such a situation now."
People want to die but can't see the hope of life, Zhuge Liang gave Shixie a hope to live, and Zhuge Liang didn't lie.
Shi Xie is also an old fox, he quickly figured out the key to the matter, and he was just a fan of the authorities before.
"Why do you want to tell the old man this, we are likely to be enemies in the future."
Zhuge Liang: "Zhang Xiang can let go of the state pastor, because the state is too weak, if the state is in the Central Plains or the north, I am afraid that there will be no place for it for a long time, and we are not afraid." ”
Shi Xie didn't feel despised at all, and the Battle of Jiaozhou made him understand a lot.
Zhang Xiang instructed a group of barbarians to take half of Jiaozhou, this is still the result of Zhang Xiang's mercy, if he really did it, he would have died a long time ago, some things Shixie has already recognized, so he will be a hero in the twilight.
Shi Xie: "Sir, I want the old man to help you block Cao Cao." ”
"Yes, yes."
"This is impossible, the old man has such a force, even if there is an old man why should he help Liu Bei, Zhang Xiang did not make trouble this time, which means that Zhang Xiang is willing to let Cao Cao get Jingzhou, how can the old man go the other way?"
Zhuge Liang: "Because the chance for adults to survive is to take Jiaozhou as a gift to enter the body, without Jiaozhou may not be able to survive, Cao thief greed will not let Jiaozhou go." ”
"Mr. Zhuge is really powerful, with a lotus tongue!"
"It's overrated." Zhuge Liang took Ma Chao and turned away, Shi Xie is really useless from today.
The soldiers gathered by Shixie, even Zhuge Liang, who is not good at military affairs, knew that this was no different from the Yellow Turban Thief, although they were all young and strong, but they were chaotic.
It is said that the rabble is praising them, the Ma family governs the army strictly, and is famous in Liangzhou, Ma Chao is a person who does not leave sand in his eyes, and he has a headache when he sees these people.
Zhuge Liang brought him here for another purpose, that is, he led the Jiaozhou soldiers to the battle.
With such a group of people, Ma Chao really doesn't want to embarrass the Ma family, but he is helpless!
Ma Chao: "How can the military advisor let you go to meet Meng Shu alone?" It's better for your subordinates to protect you! ”
Zhuge Liang: "The war on the lord's side is urgent, and the general is still in charge, so don't waste time in Jiaozhou, what the general doesn't want to do sooner or later has to be done, why delay for a while?" When he got to the lord, he let go of his burden. ”
"These people are useless at all? Why should the advisors risk their lives? ”
Zhuge Liang: "I never expected them to recapture Xiangyang, Xiangyang has long been settled, and I am just consolidating the existing foundation of the lord." Zhuge Liang didn't say it too clearly.
But Ma Chao also heard a little meaning, these soldiers are probably of other uses.
Ma Chao reluctantly led the troops to leave, Zhuge Liang only took a few elite soldiers and went to the west of Jiaozhou, Shixie's side was ruined and there were no troops, and Meng Shu was bound to be pressed by the whole army.
The current Jiaozhou is already a barbarian.
Meng Shu is also quite talented among the barbarians, and during this time, he easily subdued the barbarians, and mastered the most elite elephant soldiers, which can be said to be high-spirited.
Zhuge Liang entered the west of Jiaozhou, and did not encounter any attacks along the way, Zhuge Liang knew that most of the matter had happened.
If there are too many attacks, Zhuge Liang is afraid that he will have to turn around and leave, he is a reasonable person who can govern the place, and only Zhuge Liang has no one who does not move.
Meng Shu personally welcomed Zhuge Liang into the door, which can be said to be very courteous.
Meng Shu: "Mr. Zhuge Liang, you shouldn't have come, this time I treated each other with wine, next time you can't go back, you won't listen to anything you say and don't dare to listen, just leave after drinking this glass of wine!" Meng Shu directly issued an eviction order. (To be continued.) )
