Chapter 277: Bondage

Zhang Xiang will fall into the well, and Cao Cao himself will not let go of this opportunity, not to mention that it is just spreading rumors, Cao Cao does not feel any threat to himself.

Cao Cao's army has already invaded Yangzhou, and Lu Bu is also unable to protect himself, so he finally has a chance to breathe, and Lu Bu does not dare to provoke Cao Cao at this time, Lu Bu took advantage of this respite to send his family out.

Although Cao's army went on an expedition to Yangzhou, he did not relax on Lu Bu, and now Lu Bu only has some remnants of defeated generals, trapped in Guangling County, and Lu Bu has worked hard to send his family out.

The reason why Cao Cao attacked Yangzhou with confidence was because there was a Chen family in Guangling County, as long as Cao Cao wanted to take Lu Bu, it would only be a matter of moments, if it weren't for Yuan Shu suddenly becoming emperor.

Now Cao Cao has already taken Lu Bu's head, after Cao Cao invaded Yangzhou, he knew what it meant to be rich, hearing was false, seeing was believing, and Cao Cao really learned the words hoarding like a mountain in Yangzhou, in the south.

The grain is like a hill, the grain at the bottom is moldy, you can imagine how rich Yangzhou is, so Cao Cao didn't care about what happened in Xuchang, and the immediate benefits were in front of him.

Cao Cao couldn't care about the ethereal reputation, and Yuan Shu was also very sad at this time, Liu Bei Cao Cao suddenly went south from the north, Yuan Shu could only lead his troops to resist, so Yuan Shu transferred a large number of soldiers from Jingzhou.

The matter of transferring troops was brought up by Jia Xu, and Jia Xu knew very well that if Yuan Shu led his Yangzhou soldiers to resist Cao Liu's second army, Jingzhou would be in chaos immediately, so it was better to transfer Jingzhou's soldiers to the battlefield.

Although this will still be chaotic, but Yuan Shu's strength is really growing, Jia Xu is also forced to obey Yuan Shu, when Jia Xu left Chang'an and entered the division, he was going south.

After all, compared to the north, the south is still very quiet, Jia Xu is destination is Yizhou, in fact, Yizhou is very close to Liangzhou, that is, closer to his hometown, and since ancient times, there has been a saying that Shu Road is difficult, Jia Xu wants to spend a peaceful life there.

According to Jia Xu's own speculation, Yizhou will not release the war within five years, so Jia Xu will choose Yizhou, among all the top strategists, perhaps Jia Xu's utilitarian heart is the least.

It's a pity that Jia Xu thought very well, but he was still discovered by Yuan Shu's subordinates, not because of how elite Yuan Shu's subordinates were, but because Jia Xu had some soldiers around him, so he dressed up as a business traveler.

Yuan Shu's subordinates had extremely poor military discipline, so they robbed the business travel, and the people around Jia Xu were all elites in Liangzhou, naturally not comparable to these crooked melons and cracked dates under Yuan Shu, but this scene happened to be seen by Lei Bo who was passing by.

Lei Bo is an important subordinate general under Yuan Shu, and he is extremely greedy and immediately robs the army, Jia Xu had to stand up, Jia Xu's identity is special after all, and it is a fake business trip, and there is nothing that makes Lei Bo's heart move.

Therefore, Lei Bo was not too difficult for Jia Xu, but brought Jia Xu to Yuan Shu, Jia Xu was able to survive under Dong Zhuo and Li Wei, and naturally it was not difficult to be under Yuan Shu, so there was the scene in Jingzhou later.

However, Jia Xu didn't really take refuge, but Jia Xu found that Yuan Shu was even more shameless than Dong Zhuo and Li Dao, and if Yuan Shu failed, he would not be able to escape his death, so what Jia Xu had to do now was to let Yuan Shu last a little longer.

Only by himself can he find more opportunities, this is also a common trick used by Jia Xu, first Dong Zhuo, then Li Dao, and now Yuan Shu, there are no exceptions, Jia Xu only lives for himself.

Therefore, Yuan Shucai transferred Jingzhou's army to Yangzhou to stop the offensive of Cao Liu's second army, and at this time, those local families in Jingzhou also began to resist, and Jingzhou has always been the head of these families.

Liu Biao also relied on the Cai family to govern Jingzhou, although Liu Biao is dead, but Liu Biao's second son Liu Cong is still alive, Liu Cong's mother is also the daughter of the Cai family, so the Cai family supported Liu Cong to rebel against Yuan Shu.

It is equivalent to the Jingzhou that Yuan Shu just got changed the owner again, and these families in Jingzhou also got Jingnan, which is a place they didn't get before, so Yuan Shu found Jia Xu, "This is your plan." ”

Yuan Shu threw the battle report in the direction of Jingzhou in front of Jia Xu, Jia Xu still looked tepid, and picked up the battle report on the ground, "My lord, do you think that if the soldiers of Jingzhou stay in Jingzhou, these families will not rebel?" No, as long as Cao Liu does it, they will still rebel, and at that time they will drag down the soldiers in Jingzhou, and then we can only use the soldiers in Yangzhou to fight against Cao Liu, but now this situation is the best, and the enemy must first make themselves worry-free inside. ”

Yuan Shu didn't think about this, he just wanted to find someone to vent, "What you said is the Tao, then I'm giving you a chance to clear Cao Liu Erjun out so that you can live." ”

Jia Xu has never seen a person who turns his face so quickly, Jia Xu can only take advantage of the contradiction between the Jingzhou soldiers and the Yangzhou soldiers, after all, it is in Yangzhou, so the Jingzhou soldiers are on the weak side.

Although Jia Xu was forced into the battlefield by Yuan Shu, he also let Jia Xu see the opportunity to escape, and Jia Xu's sensitivity in this regard is not ordinarily high.

Jia Xu only had a small trick, which increased the contradiction between the Yangzhou soldiers and the Jingzhou soldiers, and the people took food as a meal of meat, which almost made the two sides fight, and the generals under Yuan Shu except for Ji Ling were all biased towards the Yangzhou soldiers.

Naturally, he would not have a good face for the Jingzhou soldiers, and he was desperately suppressing the Jingzhou soldiers, and at this time, Jia Xu came forward to speak for these Jingzhou soldiers, Jia Xu is now the person next to Yuan Shu after all.

The generals also have to give face, so the hearts of the soldiers in Jingzhou are automatically biased towards Jia Xu, with the attachment of the soldiers in Jingzhou, Jia Xu can move a lot more, and the people sent by Yuan Shu to approach do not dare to be too presumptuous.

Jia Xu has been waiting for an opportunity now, a chance to let himself escape, as long as Jia Xu sees it, Jia Xu will have the confidence to leave the battlefield, after all, Jia Xu has made full preparations.

This is also Jia Xu's escape experience, Jia Xu never believed in luck, he only believed in his own preparation, so even under unfavorable conditions, Jia Xu could escape calmly.

Jia Xu is waiting for Zhang Xiang and why not waiting, although Liu Xie is outside the Xuchang Palace, he has someone to take care of his food, clothing and daily life, even if Zhang Xiang's doctors want to do it, they don't have a chance.

So Zhang Xiang can only find an opportunity to attack, since Liu Xie's accident, Xuchang City has been sealed, that is to say, Xu Xiang is not allowed to go out, so Zhang Xiang can't use a large number of personnel.

It's not that Zhang Xiang doesn't want to use it, but there are really not so many people who can sneak into Xuchang, if it weren't for the fact that there were Zhang Xiang's people in Xuchang City, Zhang Xiang would have to give up the plan to assassinate Liu Xie.

After all, it's not easy, Liu Xie's outside is three layers inside and three layers outside! These guards were all arranged by Xun You, so he almost told others that there were important people staying here, and Zhang Xiang also made some troubles.

But Xun You didn't care, he protected Liu Xie to death, Zhang Xiang couldn't be sure if Xun You saw anything, but it did cause obstacles to Zhang Xiang, and finally Zhang Xiang had to focus on Cao Ang's body.

Cao Ang is also one of the few descendants of the Cao family who can walk around outside in recent times, as the so-called disaster will not affect the family, and Zhang Xiang has a good relationship with Cao Cao, Zhang Xiang will not put his mind on Cao Ang unless he has to.

Liu Xie has been injured for many days, and these days have also made Cao Ang figure out a lot, and he gradually began to contact government affairs, humbly asking for advice from petty officials and officials, and Cao Ang also has a certain reputation among the officials under Cao Cao.

really regarded Cao Ang as the heir, Cao Ang also practiced martial arts since he was a child, so there were not many guards around him, and Cao Ang didn't believe that anyone dared to make a move on him in Xuchang City, but Zhang Xiang's people dare.

In order to assassinate Liu Xie, Zhang Xiang deliberately brought Zhou Yang to Xuchang, for which Zhang Xiang's spies in Xuchang almost leaked, but it also made Xun You more vigilant and strengthened the guards of Liu Xie and Caofu.

Especially on Liu Xie's side, at this juncture, Xun You had reason to suspect that someone was going to be unfavorable to Liu Xie, because it was just speculation, so Xun You did not tell Cao Cao about it.

Zhou Yang's force was above Cao Ang, so Cao Ang was captured by Zhou Yang before he could resist a few times, and the guards around Cao Ang also died on the side of the street, and Zhou Yang deliberately made some noise.

In order to let Cao Jun's soldiers know that Cao Ang was captured, Xun You arrived at the scene immediately when he knew that Cao Ang was attacked, and Cao Ang's body was not found, which also made Xun You breathe a sigh of relief.

Xun You knew very well that as long as Cao Ang didn't die, he couldn't die, otherwise he wouldn't have to spend so much effort, and then he could only look at the next move of the person in the dark, Cao Ang was knocked unconscious and transported away.

When Cao Ang woke up, he was in a private house, his hands were tied and covered with rags, and he didn't see anyone, and he could only see people at noon every day, which was Cao Ang's only meal in a day.

Cao Ang stayed in the family for three days, and it was not until the fourth day that he found an opportunity, and after lunch, Cao Ang felt that the ropes in his hands were not as tight as usual, and Cao Ang did not doubt it.

Because when someone brought food over just now, Cao Ang smelled a trace of wine, and Cao Ang couldn't care so much, so he immediately found a way to break free of the rope, because he hadn't eaten well for three days.

So Cao Ang's body was a little weak, just the action of breaking free from the rope made him sweat profusely, not only that, when Cao Ang just stood up, Cao Ang stumbled and almost fell to the ground, and his legs were tied for too long, making Cao Ang a little inconvenient. (To be continued.) )
