Second, I explain this many times in the book. But I don't understand why, "So many people are so hard to understand?" Didn't someone say that your readers have a high level of understanding, and I don't need to emphasize it repeatedly? As for why Jiang Zhe helped Cao Cao so much, in a word, the fire at the city gate affected the pond fish!

On August 25, the third year of Jian'an, the breeze was floating and the sky was clear.

After capturing Hanoi and repelling Yuan Shao's general Ju Yi, Zhang Yan has been in a good mood recently.

was suppressed by Yuan Shao for nearly a year. Now Zhang Yan has a feeling of raising her eyebrows. It's just that he still has some concerns in his heart.

He took advantage of Yuan Shao's army to go south to fight with Cao Cao, and when the state was empty, if Cao Cao was defeated and Yuan Shao attacked with anger, then what should he do?

Obviously, Zhang Yan is not conceited enough to resist Yuan Shao's million-strong army and seize Hanoi, but it is just a temporary shelter, an expedient measure, and obviously it cannot last long. The main thing is to open up the road to Chang'an.

Yellow Turban...,

Three or five years ago, the great sage and good teacher led the Yellow Turban to sweep the world, defeated the official army and retreated, and was finally named the anti-thief by the Son of Heaven.

The Yellow Turban at that time......

"Alas!" With a long sigh, Zhang Yanzhan was at the door of the lobby, looking at the sky outside in a daze.

At the beginning, he was a thief, but now, he is a thief.

The difference is that it was the Son of Heaven who issued an edict calling the Yellow Turban a thief, but now "it is the people!"

In the vast world, how many people are waving the banner of great sages and good teachers and causing trouble everywhere? In just three or five years, the yellow scarf that was very popular among the people at the beginning is now avoided, thinking of this, Zhang Yan sighed secretly in her heart.

He was right, and the score was exactly right!

Could it be that we wait for the yellow scarf to be the root cause of the chaos in the world? Instead of a debaucherous and unscrupulous king?

Hum!

For example, today, who has the ability to inherit the legacy of the great sage and good teacher and calm the world, only Xiliang Baibo Yellow Turban Zhang Bai rides, he is a disciple of the great sage and good teacher, he will definitely be able to,

"Dashuai!" Suddenly, a light sound beside him interrupted Zhang Yan's contemplation.

"Huh?" Zhang Yan turned his head, looked at the visitor, frowned and said, "What's the matter?" ”

It's a black worker. The Yellow Turban general, Han Yong, is Zhang Yan's henchman who was single-handedly promoted from the Yellow Turban soldier's pawn.

"Commander Qiqi, there is a person outside the mansion who asks to see you," Han Yong said with his fists clenched.

"See?" Zhang Yan was stunned and wondered. Could it be that Yuan Shao's account was sent by Tian Feng again?

Hey! Thinking of this, Zhang Yan felt funny, and when he saw that he couldn't send troops to destroy himself, he sent someone to come and surrender, not knowing whether he was alive or dead!

"Nope!" Thinking about it, Zhang Yan frowned, sneered and said, "Give me a beating and throw him out of the city!" Tell him to go back and tell Tian Yuanhao that if he comes again, I, Zhang Yan, will be ruthless. Even if it is a messenger, I will kill it! ”

"Yes!" Fu Yong subconsciously hugged his fists and was about to turn around and leave, but after walking a few steps, he suddenly turned back. Ne said, "Da Shuai, that person said that he had a relationship with Da Shuai in Xuzhou earlier, do you really want to fight?" ”

"If you are told to fight, why are you so much waste" scolded impatiently, Zhang Yan suddenly came back to his senses and said in surprise, "What did you just say?" The man said that he had a relationship with me in Xuzhou? ”

"Yes" yes! Han Yong nodded a little fearfully.

Xuzhou ...... Xuzhou ......

I have only been to Xuzhou once, could it be,

It's him?

"Why didn't you say it earlier?!" glaring at Han Yong fiercely, Zhang Yan strode towards the outside of the mansion, leaving a confused Fu Yong, scratching his head for some reason.

Xuzhou ......

There are only Jiang Zhe and Jiang Shouyi!

Yes, as Zhang Yan expected, it was Jiang Zhe who came to visit.

Due to the urgency of the situation, Jiang Zhe could not take care of anything else, so he hurriedly rushed to Hanoi at sunset, and happened to meet Han Yong, Zhang Yan's confidant and loyalty. Otherwise, I am afraid that not only will I not see Zhang Yan, but I may also be arrested and imprisoned as a fine work.

Of course, it's just a possibility, because it's not just Jiang Zhe who comes."

After hearing that Jiang Zhe wanted to go to Hanoi, even if Zhao Yundang asked for his life, Cao Cao naturally promised that if Jiang Zhe had any losses, it would be fatal to Cao Cao.

Standing outside the mansion where Zhang Yan lived, looking at the people coming and going on the street, Jiang Zhe said in a low voice, "I'm afraid that the real yellow scarves today are only the white wave yellow scarf Zhang Baiqi and the black mountain yellow scarf Zhang Yan."

"A real yellow scarf?" Hearing Jiang Zhe's whisper, Zhao Yun said suspiciously, "Situ, what is the real yellow scarf?" ”

"Zilong, didn't you say that you called me a cousin" Jiang Zhe was a little helpless.

"This, the last general will not dare!"

No matter what Jiang Zhe said, he couldn't resist Zhao Yun not changing his words, Jiang Zhe was a little discouraged by this, shook his head and said in a low voice, "The so-called real yellow scarf." If it weren't for the Yellow Turban thieves who are now causing trouble to the world, those are just named Yellow Turbans, but they are actually first-class thieves and grass bandits, which greatly violates the original intention of the great sage and good teacher Zhang Jiao

Listen to Situ's tone: "Situ admires Zhang Jiao very much? Zhao Yun was a little surprised.

"Hehe" smiled faintly, Jiang Zhe laughed at himself and said, "If my guess is right, I went out to Xuzhou with my inner friend Xiu'er and met this person, if that person is really Zhang Jiao, hebi" I see this person, not like a traitor! ”

"Huh?" Zhao Yun was stunned, a little embarrassed that this adult's "wide range of friends" secretly worried about the mystery. Hesitant and whispered, "What does Situ mean is that Zhang Jiao's rebellion is not for his selfish motives?" ”

"How do I know this?" Jiang Zhe smiled. Nodding his head, he said, "But if my guess is right, that's roughly the case, the big man is indeed too rotten."

Zhao Yun opened his mouth and couldn't speak. Looking around, seeing that no one was paying attention, he subconsciously forgot about it, no matter what. Now it is still a big Han world, and he is a big man on the street. That's really,,

"Alas, I don't know if this trip will be successful or not" Jiang Zhe sighed slightly.

"The last general believes that Situ will be able to convince Zhang Yan!"

"Huh?" Glancing at Zhao Yun in surprise, Jiang Zhe laughed at himself, "I'm not sure myself."

"Yes!" Zhao Yun nodded, and said in a condensed voice, "Since the acquaintance of Yizhou and Situ, the last general has always firmly believed that as long as Situ comes out, no matter what happens, it will be solved!" This was the case in the battle between Yi and Yu at the beginning, and now the battle between Yuan and Cao is also the same."

"Huh! I don't have the ability that Zilong said," Jiang Zhe smiled bitterly.

"But," Zhao Yun muttered as he looked at the huge mansion in front of him with a complicated expression, "I really didn't expect that one day, I would come to meet Zhang Yan, the head of the Yellow Turban of Black Mountain."

Hearing Zhao Yun say this, Jiang Zhe was a little puzzled. frowned and asked, "Zilong and the Black Mountain Yellow Turban"

"En" nodded, Zhao Yun sighed slightly, and recalled, "When Montenegro was in turmoil, I fought with them

"Why?" Jiang Zhe was a little puzzled.

"Because they almost destroyed half of Zhaojia Village," but in the end they were finally repulsed. The uncles of Zhaojia Village were all born in the army in their early years, and these thieves didn't ask for cheapness! It can be seen that Zhao Yun has no good impression of the Black Mountain Yellow Turban.

"Is it really this Black Mountain Yellow Turban?" Jiang Zhe frowned.

"Maybe, maybe not" Zhao Yun shook his head and said very sincerely, "They just call themselves the Black Mountain Yellow Turban, what the hell is, the end will not know."

"Zilong is really a sincere person!" Jiang Zhe said with a smile.

"How dare you, Situ mistakenly praised" Zhao Yun smiled humbly and looked at the huge mansion in front of him. frowned and said, "Yi Situ, this Zhang Yan, will you see me and wait?" It's been so long, and the last general is worried

As he was talking, the door of the house squeaked open. One person rushed out, looked at Jiang Zhe, and said with great joy, "It turns out that Mr. is really from afar, Zhang Yan didn't have time to go out to greet him, and I hope Mr. will bear with him!" ”

"Where, where" Jiang Zhe smiled and arched his hand and said, "Zi'an, don't come to harm's way, on the contrary, it is Jiang who wants Zi'an to bear one or two,"

"Haha, what Situ said, I'm afraid it's what happened in Youzhou two years ago" Zhang Yan smiled heartily, walked down the steps, looked at Jiang Zhe and said sincerely, "If it weren't for Mr. Raising his noble hand and letting me Zhang Yan live, how could I Zhang Zi'an Ye in these places?" The matter of Youzhou, how could Zhang Yan blame Mr. As the saying goes, "every man for his own master" furthermore. The one who badly damaged my Black Mountain Yellow Turban was Yuan Benchu

As he spoke, Zhang Yan inadvertently glanced at Zhao Yun beside Jiang Zhe, and was suddenly shocked in his heart, who is this? What a strong momentum"

As if he had seen through Zhang Yan's thoughts, Zhao Yun took a step forward, clenched his fists and said, "Changshan Zhao Zilong, I've seen Zhang Dashuai!" ”

Changshan Zhao Zilong?!

When it was really a person's name and the shadow of a tree, Zhang Yan subconsciously took half a step back, and when he came back to his senses, his face was suddenly flushed, and he was embarrassed and indignant.

"Zi'an, it's a guest, don't you know if I'm waiting to enter the house and sit down?" Jiang Zhe: "Coincidentally. In a word. asked Zhang Yan to relieve the siege.

"Oh, oh" looked at Jiang Zhe gratefully. Zhang Yan said respectfully, "It's rude, sir, please pay General Zhao!" ”

"You're welcome!" Zhao Yun is also a sincere person, although he doesn't feel very good about the Black Mountain Yellow Turban. It won't lose face, as for Fang Caizhuo, even he didn't expect it, he didn't expect him to be so famous"

Personally welcoming Jiang Zhe and Zhao Yun to the guest hall to sit down, and instructed the soldiers to prepare tea, the excitement in Zhang Yan's heart gradually calmed down, and he secretly thought about the adult's intention.

On the other side, Jiang Zhe held the tea cup and drank tea without taking a sip, and the scene suddenly became cold.

If it were Zhang Fei and Xiahou reckless, he would definitely not be able to sit still, but Zhao Yun was a thoughtful person, seeing that Jiang Zhe didn't speak, he closed his eyes and had the right to nourish his spirits, although Zhang Yan's attitude towards Jiang Zhe made Zhao Yun breathe a sigh of relief, but who knows what will happen next? He didn't dare to take it lightly.

For a time, the hall was silent.

But apparently, Jiang Zhe's patience has been tested for a long time. It's not comparable to people like Zhang Yan, after just a stick of incense, Zhang Yan couldn't sit still, coughed, and took the lead in saying tentatively, "Mr. is here, Zhang Yan is very honored, if Mr. doesn't mind." Can you stay a few more days, the grace of Xuzhou back then, Zhang Yan did not dare to forget it in his heart. Today, I got what I wanted, and I will ask Zhang Yan to treat Mr. 1 or 2 well, "Come here, prepare wine and set up a banquet!" I'm going to catch the wind for my husband! ”

"No!" The Yellow Turban soldiers outside the hall shouted and hurried out.

"Zi'an is still so arrogant" So, Jiang thanked him! Putting down the teacup, Jiang Zhe thanked him, but still didn't mention the trip.

In this way, on the contrary, Zhang Yan couldn't feel it, in his mind, Jiang Zhe's trip was just Cao Cao's defeat to Yuan Shao, and he came to ask for help, but looking at Jiang Zhe's expression, it didn't seem to be very urgent. Mo Fei,,

After waiting for another stick of incense, Jiang Zhe was still drinking tea slowly, Zhang Yan obviously couldn't sit still, frowned, and said hesitantly, "I haven't seen you for three or five years, Zhang Yan doesn't know Mr. anymore."

"Oh? What is this? Jiang Zhe asked suspiciously.

Looking at Jiang Zhe deeply, Zhang Yan was very disappointed and said, "I was in Xuzhou at the beginning. Zhang Yan was overwhelmed. I was an enemy of Mr., I was defeated and captured, but Mr. treated me like a friend, Zhang Yan felt very honored, I saw it today, but Mr. was secretly thinking, I didn't dare to say it clearly, and I was no longer bold that day."

"I see" shook his head, Jiang Zhe arched his hand, and said with a wry smile, "It's not that Jiang is hiding his thoughts and doesn't dare to say anything, but "It's really hard to say"

"What is the difficulty of the sir, you can say!" With a wave of his hand, Zhang Yan said with a smile, "At the beginning, Mr. had a great favor to me, as long as it was within Zhang Yan's ability, I would not hesitate." He glanced at Jiang Zhe and said with a smile. "Tell Zhang Yan to guess Mr. Guess's thoughts, Mr. won't come to ask for help, right?"

"Exactly!" Jiang Zhe put down the teacup and nodded.

Seeing Jiang Zhe say so calmly. Zhang Yan was a little stunned for a while, and before he could speak, he heard Jiang Zhe continue, "It's not appropriate to do this" Well, it can be said that it is, and it can also be said that it is not! ”

"Huh?" Changing her sitting position, Zhang Yan said suspiciously,

Qiu Erming is born! Yi Yi heard that Yuan Shao led an army of one million to the south to meet Cao Yujian, who was assisted by Jing Niu. Didn't the gentleman come here to ask for help? ”

"Hehe" glanced at Zhang Yan, who was puzzled, Jiang Zhe smiled and said, "It's not for help" Zi'an doesn't know that our army and Yuan Benchu have been fighting for half a year, and finally defeated Yuan Shao in Chenliu, hey. Yuan Benchu's army of one million people, now I am afraid that there are only a few more than 100,000 left, and these soldiers and horses have experienced a great defeat, there is no morale at all, and there is no strength to resume the war" At present, it is not easy for Yuan Benchu to protect himself. How to talk about waving the army to the south, how to talk about the army of millions? ”

"What" what? Zhang Yan was shocked in her heart, sat up suddenly, and looked at Jiang Zhe in disbelief. muttered, "Yuan, Yuan Shao is defeated?" ”

"How could Jiang use such a thing to deceive Zi An?" Jiang Zhe said with a smile.

How is this possible?

Yuan Shao has an army of one million, while Cao Cao is only 200,000, and the difference in strength is so great, but now Yuan Shao is defeated?

If someone else said it, Zhang Yan would definitely not believe it, but now that Jiang Zhe said this, Zhang Yan believed it, because with his understanding of Jiang Zhe. This person is not a man of his own words."

No wonder...

No wonder Tian Yuanhao sent people to surrender several times, obviously because Yuan Shao was blocked from going south. The soldiers and horses have been greatly damaged, and there is no power to recover Hanoi, no wonder!

But since Yuan Shao has been defeated, why did this adult come?

Suspicious in her heart, Zhang Yan frowned, looked at Jiang Zhe and said, "If someone else tells me about this." I must not believe it, now the gentleman said. Zhang Yan has to believe that Mr. is talented, as early as in Xuzhou, Zhang Yan has been taught, I really can't imagine that Yuan Shao's million-strong army ended up like this, "But when it comes to this, I can't figure it out, what is Mr.'s behavior?" I originally thought that Mr. was here to ask for help, and it was a horn...

I'm sorry, Zhang Yan doesn't like to beat around the bush, but Yuan Shao is too powerful, so he is the only one" Speaking of this, Zhang Yan was a little embarrassed.

"Hehe, I understand" nodded. Jiang Zhe sighed slightly and said, "Half a year ago, Yuan Benchu waved an army of one million to the south, shocking the world, who dares to say that he is not afraid? ”

"So Mr. Today is here,"

"Hmm" After thinking about it, Jiang Zhe sat up, glanced at Zhang Yan, and arched his hand and said, "Okay, since Zi'an doesn't like to beat around the bush, I'll speak bluntly." In this trip, I am here to persuade Zi'an to help me attack Yizhou! ”

"What?" Zhang Yan's face changed, and she looked at Jiang Zhe intently.

Help Cao Cao? Doesn't this mean that he threw himself into Cao Cao!

If someone else says this, I'm afraid that Zhang Yan will turn his face, you know, the person sent by Tian Feng to persuade him to vote was whipped by Zhang Yan at the gate of the city, and half of that guy's life was killed. Just let him go back, Zhang Yan even threatened. If Tian Feng sends someone to come again, then he doesn't care if "the two armies are fighting and not killing." Rules,,

"That's what you're here for, sir?" Zhang Yan sat down slowly, her face a little ugly.

"Exactly!"

"It's really as Mr. himself said, it's hard to say that Situ Fang has been silent for a long time, can't he be thinking about how to convince Zhang?" Zhang Yan sneered, and her tone was a little unkind.

"Exactly!" Jiang Zhe nodded and said sincerely. "Even if it's hard to say, I won't say it, since I'm ordered to come here, I can only do my best!"

Seeing that Jiang Zhe was so sincere, Zhang Yan's face was much better, and he clenched his fists and said, "Mr. is quick to talk." It seems that in Xuzhou that day, Zhang Yan also said the truth, Mr. has a great favor to me, but this matter, Zhang Yan can't do anything! ”

"Zi'an takes Hanoi, won't he want to go to Xiliang and join the Baibo Yellow Turban?"

"Hehe" raised his eyebrows, Zhang Yan nodded and smiled, "I don't know that I can't hide it from Mr., and I don't want to deceive Mr., that's right!" ”

"It's hard for Zi'an to think that Zhang Baiqi is enough to succeed?"

"Huh?" Zhang Yan was stunned, raised his hand and said, "I don't know what Mr. means."

"That's good" nodded, Jiang Zhe said in a condensed voice, "Let me ask Zi'an, why did you go to meet the white wave and yellow scarf?" It was because Yuan Shao persecuted him to survive. Or is it to help Zhang Baiqi seize the world? ”

was asked, and Zhang Yan was dumbfounded.

"If it is because of Yuan Shao's persecution, Yuan Shao's defeat right now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, why don't you join forces with my lord? In the past in Xuzhou, Zi'an once said to Zai that the Yellow Turban was to calm the troubled times. In the next Zeng said to Zi'an, what the yellow scarf did was the beginning of the disaster, Zi'an didn't believe it at the beginning, so what about today? ”

After hesitating for a moment, Zhang Yan said with a wry smile, "What Mr. said that day was not bad at all, but "Just ask Zi'an" interrupted Zhang Yan's words, Jiang Zhe got up and arched his hand, and said in a deep voice, "Now Zi'an's mind is still to calm the troubled times. Is it for the benefit of the people? ”

"Naturally!" Zhang Yan said subconsciously.

"Then why don't you help my lord?" Looking at Zhang Yan deeply, Jiang Zhe said urgently, "If the princes of all walks of life today have equal strength, if it goes on like this for a long time, when will the troubled times be pacified?" At present, Yuan Shao's million-strong army is defeated, and the people of Yi, Qing, You, and the four states are panicking, which is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and our lord has the heart to calm the troubled times. I was anxious to go north to attack Yuan, but I was suffering from a shortage of soldiers and horses, "If you can take Yuan Shaoyi and Qing Prefecture." My lord will be able to wave the army in the Central Plains within a few years and calm the troubled times, but I don't know, why doesn't Zi'an help my lord?! ”

Slowly getting up and glancing at Jiang Zhe, Zhang Yan was obviously struggling in his heart.

"Okay" Sighing secretly, Jiang Zhe got up and arched his hand and said, "I'm in a hurry today, it's too tiring on the road, can Zi'an dial a guest room and wait with me, as for the answer, Zi'an will think about it carefully, can you?" ”

"Good! Good! Seeing Jiang Zhe say this. Zhang Yan naturally wouldn't allow it, and hurriedly asked someone to bring Jiang Zhe and Zhao Yun into the guest room to rest.

Zhang Baiqi, or Cao Mengde?

Zhang Yan hesitated......

I'm going to the hospital tomorrow morning, so that's all I can do today, and when I come back tomorrow, I'll be a little more."
