Xue Yusheng looked at Xue Zongbao and said, "What do you think about this matter?" Xue Zongbao got up and arched his hand: "I only know that it hasn't hurt us, but the Hou Mochen family has made us not live a good life for many years, especially the cousin's incident is still unforgettable." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info" Speaking of this matter, even Li Jinghe on the side got up and said indignantly: "Hou Mo Chen Chong bullied people too much, and my Li family is inseparable from them. ”

It seems that everyone has an idea about this matter, but because of Xue Yusheng's face, no one has made it clear. Cao Huigong struck while the iron was hot and said: "Without further ado, so as not to have many dreams at night, at this moment, if you and I join forces to help Yang Gong take Tianshui City, Yang Gong promised to seal Tianshui City to you." Xue Yusheng turned his head and looked at him seriously and asked, "Are you serious?" Cao Huigong said: "There is no joke. ”

Cao Huigong immediately took out Yang Zhong's handwritten letter from his arms and handed it to him: "I have a handwritten letter from Yang Gong here, if you don't believe it, you can send someone to follow me to meet Yang Gong himself in person." "It seems that Yang Zhong has been delayed for too long under Tianshui City, and he urgently needs the support of the Xue family at this moment. Xue Yusheng looked at Yang Zhong's handwritten letter, the words in it were very sincere, and every sentence was full of his heartfelt words.

Cao Huigong saw that his face had changed, so he continued: "The official position of the governor of Longxi is okay, the entire Longxi is under your control, this is something that Hou Mochen can't give, and Yang Gong treats you like this, and then refuses him to pass it on for fear of damaging your prestige, the so-called good birds choose trees to perch, this Qinzhou I think sooner or later it will be Yang Gong's, there is no need to follow Hou Mochen and his family to kill themselves." ”

Xue Yusheng seemed to have made up his mind, and said loudly: "Come on, get a pen and paper, I will personally reply to Yang Gong." The guard hurriedly took paper, ink, pen and inkstone from the study and respectfully set it aside. Xue Yusheng wrote a few lines and suddenly put down his pen and stopped writing, Cao Huigong thought that he was going to regret it again, and stepped forward and asked, "My lord, why didn't you write?" Xue Yusheng threw away the pen and said loudly: "Come on, prepare a horse for me, I will go to the city to see Yang Gong and personally present my siege strategy." Everyone present was stunned when they heard this.

Xue Yusheng took Xue Zongbao and Li Jinghe, and under the leadership of Cao Hui Palace, they galloped towards Tianshui City. When I came to the city, I saw that the dense barracks tents surrounded the whole Tianshui, and the city was as lively as a bazaar, with merchants who opened their doors to do business, prostitutes who did the skin and meat business, and those who shouted and drank and gambled. Xue Yusheng was a little surprised and asked, "This city is so difficult to capture?" Yang Gong's subordinates are so scattered? ”

Cao Huigong said: "Hey, Yang Gongzhai is kind-hearted and unwilling to bow down and lose the lives of his subordinates, the so-called sieger, killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred, he is really worthy of being called a bodhisattva." Xue Yusheng didn't speak, and the group came to the main camp, and the guards guarding the door looked extraordinary at a glance, and asked loudly: "Where are the people?" What did you do before coming to the barracks? Cao Huigong took out his pass token and said to the guard: "This is the new Lord Xue of Qinzhou, please inform Yang Gong, I will come to ask for an important matter to discuss." ”

The guard glanced at the sign in his hand, then looked at the people accompanying him, and said, "You wait here, don't wander around, I'll go to the Lord to report it." With that, he turned around and went in. After a while, I saw a person walking out with disheveled hair and disheveled, and as soon as he came to the front, he saw Cao Hui Palace leaning down and bowing: "Minister Cao Hui Palace to meet the lord." Xue Yusheng was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly leaned over to pay homage and said, "Xue Yusheng has seen General Yang. At this time, he was not considered a subordinate of Yang Zhong, so he did not pay homage as follows.

Yang Zhong happily helped him up and laughed: "I've been waiting for Master Xue for a long time, and you're finally willing to go out of the mountain to help me, I'm so happy." Come on, come on, there's something inside, please. Saying that, he took his hand and led him to the barracks, Cao Huigong, Xue Zongbao, Li Jinghe and others followed, Cao Huigong took advantage of Yang Zhong to introduce the deployment in the barracks to Xue Yusheng again, and asked the guards on the side in a low voice: "Why is Yang Gong dressed up like this to meet guests?" The guard replied: "The lord stayed up all night last night, and he didn't have time to wash, and when he was eating, he heard that Lord Xue was coming, so he happily came out to greet him." "Cao Hui Palace, it seems that treating him Xue Yusheng is indeed different from treating me Cao Hui Palace.

After everyone went around the barracks for a long time, they returned to the main camp tent, and Xue Yusheng saw the food on the table and knew that Yang Zhong was probably eating just now. Yang Zhong looked a little embarrassed, and then said: "Come on, quickly clean up these and serve tea quickly." The guard came up and asked, "Lord, aren't you eating?" You didn't eat last night, did you? "Don't talk nonsense, clean it up." Yang Zhong was a little embarrassed and said to Xue Yusheng: "You see that I am not well entertained in this hurry." ”

Xue Yusheng hurriedly bowed down and saluted: "Where does the general say, you are the master, we are the guest, the guest is whatever the lord wants, you really don't have to be so polite." Yang Zhong laughed and said, "I like to deal with bold people like Lord Xue, and I don't have to be informal." I'll tell you what you think of my barracks. It stands to reason that Yang Zhong completely told Xue Yusheng about his military camp deployment when they first met, and he was not worried that he would secretly report to Hou Mo and Chen Chong, which was infinite trust in him. Xue Yusheng immediately said very respectfully: "The general's formation is comparable to Zhuge Liang's gossip array, and the dripping marching array is indeed superior, and I really admire it in my heart." ”

This is a kind word, Yang Zhong was very happy to hear it, but then said: "The kind words said by the adults, although there is a suspicion of sycophancy, but I don't blame you, I hope that I can be honest with the adults, we can be friends, what views and suggestions do you have for me, you may as well say it directly, I invited you to listen to everyone's correct opinions." Xue Yusheng was very touched when he saw that he was very sincere, thinking that he had never met a master general who could treat his subordinates like this since he was a child, it seems that Cao Huigong did not lie, this Yang Zhong is really worthy of his trust.

Xue Yusheng saluted and said: "The general's mind is very admirable, and today's world is dominated by people who are deceitful, far like Wan Qiu ugly slaves, Xiao Baoyin, and those who have entered Hou Mo and Chen Chong, all of whom are deceitful and famous. After seeing Ming Gong today, I feel that there can still be a master like you in this world, which is really embarrassing. Since you have asked me sincerely, I should know that there is no end to what I have to say. Yang Zhong was very interested and pulled him to the table and sat down, and then asked, "I want to hear about it." ”

Xue Yusheng then said: "This Tianshui City is surrounded by water on three sides, built on the mountain, although the scope is not large, but it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, which is very conducive to long-term garrison. Yang Zhong nodded and did not speak. Xue Yusheng continued: "There will inevitably be great damage to besieging the city head-on and attacking Tianshui, but there is a way for the minister here to easily take this city without spending a single soldier of the general.
