The so-called people who can achieve great things are somewhat gambling. Bet on destiny and, of course, on luck. It's hard for others to say, but at least Qin Xu, who is now famous all over the world, and Cao Cao, who divided the Central Plains with Lu Bu, has this kind of paranoia for no reason.

The intelligence before the review had already caused a full thousand elites to be more than one. In the past, this kind of person would have been dismantled by Cao Cao a long time ago, or thrown to the sergeants to vent his anger, where would he allow the judge to speak again. But the current situation has made Cao Cao have to take a gamble, hoping to break the deadlock he has fallen into.

Compared with Cao Cao, who was cleaned up by Guan Yu and also erected the banner of righteousness to stir up the situation in Hebei, Lu Bujun's luck was much better. The day after Lu Bujun arrived in the plain, Zhen Jian, the head of the Zhen family, who had already been summoned by Zhen Kun and Zhen Jiang, came to the barracks in person, regardless of the fact that he was close to the age of sixtieth.

Now the cooperation between the Zhen family and Lu Bujun has become normal, Lu Bujun relies on the Zhen family to provide Hebei news, hoping to use the power of the Zhen family to exert influence before the ownership of Hebei is settled, and the Zhen family is also because of the expansion of the territory under Lu Bu in just a few years, it is not more than ten times, so it is extremely optimistic about the development of Lu Bujun, hoping to be able to attach the tail, the two families are basically the same, it can be said that they hit it off, with this consensus, the tension in Linzi at the beginning has been laughed off as a pastime in the tea and wine room.

Zhen Jian's main purpose this time cannot be to reminisce about the past, compared to Cao Cao's treatment of being trapped in the state and not being able to advance an inch, Lu Bujun can be regarded as having a good luck this time. For the sake of the Zhen family, Zhen Jian planned to borrow this place in Hebei. came to show Lu Bu the power of his family thoroughly, and after the two sides finished greetings, Zhen Jian didn't do much twisting. He presented a big gift to Lu Bu, which made Lu Bu and Qin Xu, who were used to seeing the world, also gasp.

"This ...... This is a topographic map of Hebei? Qin Xu asked tentatively in a tone of disbelief. In front of Qin Xu's eyes was a large roll of nitrate cowhide, rolled into a long tube with a diameter of three feet, standing on the ground and being tall enough to cover the entire room. This is not really surprising, at most it is just a few more cows. Compared to a big family like the Zhen family, it is nothing at all. But when he saw the content on this cowhide, Qin Xu was also shocked. It's not like Shadow hasn't sent someone to investigate the terrain of Hebei before. There are also relatively detailed topographic maps, but if even the military arrangements of the current forces in Youzhou, Jizhou, and Bingzhou are marked, even the previous Shadow did not have such great energy in Hebei.

"Not bad!" The old man Zhen Jian still seems to have some resentment for Qin Xu's lack of face. Although he is respectful to Lu Bu, he is very respectful to Qin Xu, a young man with a high official position. The favor is still lacking. Listening to Qin Xu's surprise question. On Zhen Jian's old face full of folds, a little color suddenly swelled up, and he squinted and smiled: "General Qin has good eyesight!" Not bad! This is the topographic map of Gongsun Zan of Youzhou, Yuan Tan of Bingzhou, Yuan Xi of Jizhou, as well as the place where Liu Bei's garrison and the remnants of the Black Mountain thieves are entrenched! ”

"How did the old gentleman get this? And it's so detailed? The approximate number of defenders at this level and the time of rotation can be heard, which really makes Qin breathtaking! "It's not that Qin Xu doesn't believe that the Zhen family's forces in Hebei can do this. It's just a little too sensational. You just said that the location of some of the passes of the level that has been continued, can it be discovered by others? Isn't it possible that people will mobilize their troops and deploy them? For example, now that Cao Cao is coming to Bingzhou, the ghost can guess that at least the natural danger Huguan between Jizhou and Jizhou, and the two ends of the canyon between Youzhou and Bingzhou are deployed from both sides. It can't be said that it changes every day, at least it is very different from before. What's more, even wartime passwords can be heard, which is a bit too, right? It is considerable that Zhen Jian looks like he is confident, and the stakes are very high, so he can't help but ask Qin Xu questions.

"Hah! General Qin is really careful! No wonder he is so trusted by General Lu! Zhen Jian's pair of snow-white eyebrows heard Qin Xu's questioning question, and he was about to stir up immediately, or Zhen Kun, the next head of the Zhen family, who had been by Zhen Jian's side, laughed dryly, stopped Zhen Jian's old man's words, flattered Qin Xu and eased the atmosphere for a while, before waving his hand to signal the two big men who had just come in with a cowhide and were waiting for him to go out, his voice with a hint of mystery in his voice, and said slowly: "General Qin is a military master, and it is normal to have this question. It's just that the situation in Hebei is different from other places. cough, I don't know if General Qin knows what kind of business name and industry my Zhen family has in Sanzhou, Hebei? ”

"Qin only knows that the Zhen family is a giant in Hebei, controlling almost all the horse farms and iron mines in Hebei, and is also involved in other industries, what is the strength of your family, now we are a family, the lord has a lot of faith in your family, but Qin does not dare to peek at the whole picture!" Although he didn't know why Zhen Kun suddenly turned the topic to the strength of the Zhen family, Qin Xu still told the truth and said.

"Thank you for your great kindness, and thank you General Qin for your understanding! In fact, I'm not afraid of General Qin's jokes! If it was more than ten years ago, the Zhen family was under the governance of his father, perhaps as General Qin said, with the strength of his own family, he would buy a third prince to do, but in fact, it was also an idle matter! It's just that in this world, even if the Han family really has the ability to weft, but there is no hand like the lord and the hand of General Qin. Zhen Jian's age is really an advantage, and he can be called General Lu Buzun, but Zhen Kun can no longer be so ignorant and indiscriminate, after praising Lu Bu and Qin Xu, he almost said with a wry smile: "Not to mention anything else, in the past ten years in the three states of Hebei, plus the black mountain thieves who were raging before, there have been no less than ten masters, each with its own ruthlessness, just like today's merger states, Ma Zheng was all occupied by Yuan Tan in the name of Cao Cao, like the people of merchants such as me, where are we going to reason?" The previous ten stops of the industry have gone to eight stops, and there is no choice but to sit back and watch the end of being knocked out of the bone and sucking the marrow. ”

"Huh? Is there such a thing? It turns out that your family is also extremely difficult! No wonder the troops had to go south in two ways to find an opportunity! Lu Bu was noncommittal, and only Qin Xu followed Zhen Kun's words and asked. I want to see the Zhen family, who have not yet clarified the matter of presenting the topographic map of Hebei just now, suddenly began to cry again, and their thinking jumped so hugely. What does that mean?

"Huh! If General Qin doesn't inquire in detail, it's all old things! Perhaps seeing the insincerity in Qin Xu's words, as well as the inquiring look in his eyes, Zhen Kun glanced at Zhen Jian who seemed to be closing his eyes and recuperating a little unnaturally, smiled, changed the conversation, and continued: "Although the strength of the Zhen family is not as good as before. But after all, it has been operated for several generations in Hebei, and there are still some relatives and friends from all walks of life. Since the Han family members have volunteered to serve the lord, they know that the lord's ambition is magnificent. Naturally, there is anticipation. Since returning to Hebei, he has focused on scattering his family fortune, and has made contact with some previous relationships through various channels. Gather intelligence. It took more than a year to finally complete the drawing of this topographic map of Hebei a few days before the lord came to Hebei. Today's dedication to the lord is to do the best for the benefit of the Han family and the whole family, and also to do a little bit for the great cause of the lord. ”

"The Zhen family has worked hard! Something will not be negative! "Lu Bu is used to being a straight person, even if he has been pampered in the past few years, he can't wear away his nature. Listening to Zhen Kun's situation, it is difficult. His own experience, the loyalty after serving Lu Bu. Lu Bu couldn't help but be moved by Zhen Kun's words, nodded and said.

"As for General Qin's question, it is not difficult to know the actual situation fluctuations in various military stations." With Lu Bu's words as the foundation, Zhen Kun's complexion stabilized a lot, as if he had taken a reassuring pill, and then he turned the topic to the main topic.

"Huh? Qin was about to ask for advice! Qin Xu, who had been silent since Zhen Kun opened his mouth, waited for Zhen Kun to finish speaking before nodding and saying. Now Qin Xu understood why Zhen Kun suddenly took Zhen Jian's words before, and half-complained about his bitterness, the eight achievements are for Lu Bu's words! It can't be seen that this Zhen Kun has been suppressed by his eldest brother Zhen Qian for more than ten years, and as soon as the identity of the next head of the family is confirmed, the edge he shows is so sharp. However, Qin Xu didn't have the intention of stumbling up, and he didn't make an obstacle from it. After all, no matter what, Qin was also a member of the fighting in the shopping mall in his previous life, but he can also understand the true intention of the Zhen family's actions, the biggest purpose is just to protect himself, cutting off people's financial routes is like killing his parents, as long as the Zhen family does not stumble, Qin Xu, who is already holding Lu Bu's forces and attaches equal importance to business and agriculture, is too lazy to interfere with normal business behaviors. It's just that what I didn't expect was that this was just a momentary move, but I gained a few glances The old man Zhen Jian was slightly puzzled, and Zhen Kun had a grateful look in his eyes.

"Although the Han family is not as prosperous as it was more than ten years ago, some people can still afford it. Now that some of the old relationships have been opened up, the Han family will naturally send people to collect information from all over the place through various channels every three days, and then summarize the information collected on this map! Therefore, the Han family can use the life of the family to vouch for it, although the news on this topographic map is not the latest and true, but the fallacy will definitely not exceed two days. Of course, if the lord and General Qin intend to inspect where they are, the Han family will naturally adjust their manpower at any time, and they will definitely not delay major events in the army! Bowing to Qin Xu, Zhen Kun said with a slight pride on his face.

"Hmm! Lord, it seems that the Zhen family has really put a lot of thought into it for the great cause of the lord this time! Qin Xu turned around and said to Lu Bu with a smile. Since people voted for papaya, we have to repay it with Qiongju. Zhen Kun's little thought was just that after seeing Lu Bu send troops, he finally recognized the strength of Lu Bu's army, so out of the consideration of "sense of security", he wanted to completely tie the Zhen family to Lu Bujun's chariot in this way. is right to Qin's appetite, such a good thing, how can it be excused?

"Thank you General Qin for your kind words, the Han family will definitely be as General Qin said, and die for the great cause of the Lord!" The old man Zhen Jian also seemed to have changed his temper at this time, and for the first time, he didn't raise his eyebrows at Qin Xu anymore, got up and thanked Lu Bu, but he glanced at Qin Xu with a somewhat complicated expression, nodded at Zhen Kun with a strange expression, and the eyes of the two fell on Qin Xu again.

"Huh?" Qin Xu was suddenly a little uncomfortable by the mysterious appearance of these two father and son, and his heart suddenly sank, shouldn't it? Could it be that the father and son have just taken effect, and they are about to make trouble? (To be continued......)
