Liu Yong asked in a trembling voice, "Who are those women?" ”

"Hui Gongzi, these are the kabuki of the house. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Liu Yong was stunned for a moment, wanting to take a closer look, but the woman had already turned her head, and across a courtyard wall, covered by flowers and trees, she couldn't really see it. Why is this woman so similar to Diao Chan? Liu Yong was puzzled. After returning to Xudu, he wanted to ask Cao Cao and Lu Bu's wife and concubine how to deal with it, but he never had the opportunity or the courage to speak.

Seeing that Liu Yong was stunned for a long time, the congregation reminded: "Son, the prime minister is still waiting." ”

Liu Yong had to sigh secretly and leave in a huff.

Cao Cao loved his talent deeply, and set up a special seat to treat him as the same as Guo Jia and other cronies and strategists. Cao Cao said first: "Yuan Shao is powerful, he was originally above Lonely, and now he has newly destroyed Gongsun Zan and unified Hebei, which is overwhelming." If time passes, its people will be stable, the soldiers will be good and the food will be sufficient, and it will be even more difficult to be defeated alone. The prime minister wants to take advantage of Yuan Shaobing's exhaustion, and will be complacent, run thousands of miles, surprise, and succeed in the first battle, what do you think of this strategy? ”

Liu Yong was the first to object, and replied: "Prime Minister, if you raid Yuan Shao at this time, it may be a temporary success, then Xu Du has Sun Ce in the east, Yuan Shu and Liu Biao in the south, and Zhang Xiu in the west, all of them are eyeing each other. The prime minister poured the country's troops and attacked Yecheng from afar, and Xu Du was bound to be empty. If someone takes the opportunity to sneak attack, Xu will be in danger. ”

"Chongru's concern makes perfect sense." Guo Jiashen thought so, and everyone else echoed it in unison.

Cao Cao was very displeased, and said angrily: "Then what should I do, I can't wait for Yuan Shao to come and attack alone?" ”

"If Chongru has this consideration, there must be a countermeasure." Guo Jia replied.

"What do you think?" Cao Cao was overjoyed. Liu Yong replied stubbornly: "There is a plan below, please make a decision." ”

"Chongru come quickly."

"If the prime minister doesn't care about the past suspicions, he can send someone to recruit Zhang Xiu from Wancheng to surrender. Liu Biao of Jingzhou and Sun Ce of Jiangdong can be knighted as officials, so that they will not move, and the prime minister will have no trouble, so that the prime minister is only worried about Yuan Shao of Hebei. ”

Cao Cao laughed and said: "Those who achieve great things are not informal." Liu Biao, Sun Ce and Lone Ben have no grudges. It may be successful. However, Zhang Xiu has a deep hatred for his own appearance, even if Cao doesn't care, how can he easily stop? What is Chongru's strategy to convince this person to surrender? ”

Liu Yong secretly praised in his heart, in the end, he is a big politician. I can afford to put it down, so I said: "Zhang Xiu is hanging outside, I want to return to the prime minister, but I am afraid that the prime minister will not allow it." If the prime minister sincerely invites him, Chen said that it is amazing. He will surrender with all his heart, and will not rebel again. ”

Cao Cao's old face turned red, Zhang Xiu had already surrendered to himself, but it was my sperm worm who took over other people's aunts, so humiliated, and forced him back again, it's a pity.

I only listened to Liu Yong's eloquent talk, and said: "Jiangdong Sun Ce, I just want to unify Jiangdong." Its heart is far away in Lujiang and Yuzhang. It is better for the prime minister to take an official position and order him to attack Liu Xun and Hua Xin with the order of the imperial court, Sun Ce will be grateful to the prime minister, and he will not be hindered. Besides, Liu Biao is short-sighted, he just wants to keep the land of Jingzhou, as long as the prime minister promises to sign an alliance, his heart will be at peace. ”

Xun You praised: "As said, every sentence is reasonable." It will be adopted accordingly. ”

Cao Cao saw that all the strategists agreed, so he said: "Lone will use Chongru's strategy, but who will he send to say surrender?" ”

Cheng Yu said: "If Chongru dedicates this plan, there must be a rhetoric." They can be allowed to go. ”

Cao Cao smiled: "Chongru is willing to go?" ”

Liu Yong said in his heart, this matter was originally persuaded by Jia Xu's fellow countryman Liu Ye, but now this person is far away in Lujiang Liu Xun to serve and has not yet taken refuge in Cao Cao, so he came up with this idea earlier, and it seems that he can only go by himself.

"Liu Yong is willing to go."

"Okay." Cao Cao was very happy. "Who is going to Xiangyang Liu Biao and Jiangdong Sun Ce?"

Guo Jiadao: "Liu Biao and Sun Ce are full of soldiers and horses, and they should not be underestimated. Prime Minister, if you don't recruit Zhang Xiu first, these two people will be jealous, and the Prime Minister will be able to succeed in one fell swoop if he sends someone to go. ”

"Feng Xiao's words are very lonely, tomorrow I will invite the saint, Liu Yong as the staff general, with this handwritten letter, go to Xiangcheng to recruit Zhang Xiu."

Liu Yong simply packed up, carried Cao Cao's secret letter, and only took Zhou Cang, Song Jiu and a few other entourages, and went straight to Xiangcheng to meet Jia Xu. When Jia Xu heard that Cao Cao had sent a secret envoy to come, he was not surprised, retreated left and right, and summoned Liu Yong to meet in the side room. This person who was promised by Mr. Yi Zhongtian as the smartest person in the Three Kingdoms is in his fifties, with a thin face, a few wisps of beard under his chin that are gray and patchy, and his eyes are deep and shrewd.

After the two sides finished saluting, Jia Xu asked directly: "What did Prime Minister Cao Cheng do when he sent General Liu to Xiangcheng, but is it to recruit my lord?" ”

Liu Yong secretly praised in his heart, it really lived up to his name, in one sentence. It is easy to communicate with smart people, so Liu Yong was no longer polite, and replied directly: "Liu Yong was ordered by the prime minister to invite General Zhang Xiu to Xudu to discuss state affairs with Prime Minister Cao Cheng. Mr. is the most trusted person of General Zhang, and he asked Mr. to explain the pros and cons in front of the general, and Yucheng is about it. ”

Jia Xu smiled slightly and said, "General Zhang and Cao Gong have a deep hatred, how can it be easily resolved?" General Liu might as well say it in words, if I can move Jia, I can persuade General Zhang. ”

Liu Yong arched his hand and said: "As the old saying goes, those who achieve great things are not ashamed; Those who have made great contributions are not informal. Although General Zhang has the hatred of Cao Gong's humiliation of his aunt, Ming Gong has the pain of losing his son and nephew, and his confidant Dian Wei also lost his life. However, the prime minister is broad-minded, can accept all rivers, and the heart of seeking talents is known to the world. Cao Gong is willing to turn hostility with General Zhang into jade silk, and become a minister in the same hall with the general, and form a brotherhood and brotherly righteousness. ”

Jia Xu stroked his beard, nodded, and said with a smile: "General Zhang is famous, if you want to go elsewhere, there are countless people in the world who sweep the bed and greet you, why should you return to Cao Gong." General Liu has the words to move Jia. ”

"Liu Yong thinks that although the world is big, General Zhang can only rely on Ming Gong for three ......reasons," Liu Yong said eloquently.

Jia Xu was slightly distracted after hearing this, but did not speak. Liu Yong asked, "Sir, is what Liu Yong said reasonable?" ”

Jia Xu praised: "The son is sharp and sharp, and his words are chiseled, and Jia admires him." Don't hide it, I have already had this intention, and it coincides with you. Jia was worried about how to mention this matter to the general, but he didn't expect that Ming Gong would send Chongru to come, which was just in time. Chongru, please go to the pavilion to rest first, and meet the general with me tomorrow morning. ”

Liu Yong bowed his hand and said secretly in his heart, these reasons of mine are actually what you used to persuade Zhang Xiu, these words were originally what you said, I am really ashamed.

Early the next morning, Jia Xu led Liu Yong to visit Zhang Xiu, but he didn't expect that there was already a guest in Zhang Xiu's house. When Zhang Xiu saw Jia Xu coming, he hurriedly said: "Wenhe, you came just in time, and I was about to invite you." Let me introduce you to you, this is Yuan Shao's messenger. ”

Jia Xu smiled and said, "What a coincidence." Either you don't come, or you come at all. Pointing at Liu Yong, he said: "This is Cao Gong's envoy, staff general Liu Yong and Liu Chongru." ”

Zhang Xiu was a little surprised, and looked at Liu Yong carefully, "Could it be Liu Yong Liu Chongru, who raided Hanoi the day before yesterday?" ”

Liu Yong gave a deep salute, "Don't dare." ”

Zhang Xiu praised: "I didn't expect Chongru to be so young. As he spoke, he handed a letter to Jia Xu, "Sir, please see, this is Yuan Gong's handwritten letter." persuade me to join forces with him to fight against Cao Cao. ”

Jia Xu read Yuan Shao's letter, put it on the table, then raised his eyes to look at Yuan Shao's envoy, and asked, "Is this Yuan Gong's sincerity?" ”

This messenger knew that Jia Xu was smart and wise, Zhang Xiu obeyed his words, and said that Jia Xu was moved by Zhang Xiu, so he stood up and arched his hand: "Mr. Wenhe, General Zhang is brave and brave in the world, and Yuan Gong's soldiers are strong and strong. I also hope that Mr. Jia will help him, and the jade will become beautiful. ”

Jia Xu didn't speak, and said to Liu Yong: "What do you think about Chongru?" ”

Liu Yong smiled lightly and said, "Yuan Shaolian's own brother Yuan Shu can't accommodate it, let alone General Zhang, who has never had a relationship?" ”

The messenger said angrily: "Sir, the highway sent someone to Yuan Gong to ask for help, but my lord did not shirk it, and immediately replied to ask him to lead the troops to Hebei quickly, how can you say that you can't tolerate it?" ”

"Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu have always been at odds, they have met several times in battle, fighting for their lives, why did they suddenly agree to take Yuan Shu in this time? In fact, it was not for anything else, just for the heirloom jade seal in his hand. In order to attack Cao Gong together, Yuan Shao may temporarily join forces with General Zhang, but once Cao Gong's army is defeated, how can Yuan Shao tolerate General Zhang again? ”

Before the messenger could speak, Jia Xu copied the letter and tore it into several paragraphs, "Come on, blast him out for me." ”

Before Zhang Xiu could react, his subordinates drove the messenger out.

Zhang Xiu was a little worried, "Wenhe, now the original power is the strongest among the princes of all towns in the world, and now we can't help but say that we will drive his envoy away." If Yuan Shao is angry and sends troops to Xiangcheng, how do we deal with it? ”

"General, please relax. Prime Minister Cao Cheng's envoy is here, let's go to Cao Gong. ”

Zhang Xiu stomped his feet and said angrily: "Wenhe, I have a grudge against that Cao Cao. Have you forgotten the battle of Wancheng? He loves Jiang Dianwei, how did his nephew and son die? Now that we are going to Cao Cao, can he tolerate me? ”

"General, it seems that you still don't know who Cao Gong is. Those who achieve great things are not informal; Those who seek the overall situation, regardless of the gains and losses of a city, are willing to turn enemies into friends and become brothers and sisters with the general. This is a handwritten letter from Cao Gong to you. If the general is still not at ease, we might as well listen to Chongru's analysis again? ”

"Okay. Please ask General Liu to solve the confusion in Zhang Xiuyi's heart. Zhang Xiu said reluctantly.

"Liu Yong thinks that the general is hanging alone, and there are only two or three cities, can he stop Cao Gong?"

"I can't use Zhang Xiu's strength, but I may be able to fight with Liu Jingsheng."

"Won't General Zhang really think that the last big victory was due to Cao Gong's vulnerability? What's more, Liu Biao only knows how to defend the land and protect himself, and may not be in concert with the general. ”

Zhang Xiu was silent when he heard this, he actually understood that he was able to break Cao Cao last time, firstly, because Jia Xu planned properly and was unexpected; The second is that Cao Cao had worries and did not dare to go all out, just a fluke victory. Moreover, Liu Biao has no ambitions, as long as Cao Cao does not provoke, he will never take the initiative to send troops.

"In terms of strength, Yuan Shao is far better than Cao Gong; If you talk about intimacy, I have no gap with the original, but I have skin pain with Cao Gong, why does Zhang Xiu have to vote for Cao Gong? (To be continued.) )
