Chapter 388: Wei Tao persuaded Mother Xu
"The lord also knows that Xu Shuqi?"
Seeing Wei Tao like this, Jiang Wei and the others were a little more curious, but they were thinking about who Xu Shuqi was.
Wei Tao smiled slightly, two lives, how did he not know the name of Xu Shu?
Xu Shu entered Cao Ying and did not say a word.
In history, Xu Shu originally wanted to support Liu Bei, and now it is not unusual for Zhuge Liang to introduce Liu Bei again, but in this way, Liu Bei has been reinforced, and it is difficult to capture Xichuan.
"Xu Shu is from Yingchuan, and he has studied with Mr. Shuijing Sima Hui for a long time, and his ability is by no means under Zhuge Liang, so he can be described as a rare strategist. If it weren't for that Huang Zhong as the main general this time, if this person was to be in charge, I'm afraid Jiang Wei and your plan would not be useful. β
Although Jiang Wei is young, he is modest and cautious, and he is not dissatisfied when Wei Tao is so blunt, but he secretly frowned.
"I didn't expect it to be such a talent, so how lucky Liu Bei is, the world is like this, there are still such people who throw themselves into it."
"Alas...... After all, it is the 400th year of the Huanghuang Han Dynasty, if it is the time of the Han Dynasty, I will definitely be like my ancestor Wei Qing, galloping across the frontier and volunteering, how can I do such a thing? This kind of competition in the Central Plains wasted the vitality of my Han family's sons in vain, and it really didn't make much sense. β
Hearing Wei Tao's self-talk, Jiang Wei and the others were holding their breath, these words are really not something that people can talk about, these three people are all understanding people.
Wei Tao smiled indifferently when he saw this, and turned the topic back.
"That Liu Bei now has Zhuge Liang, Fa Zheng, Xu Shu and other advisers, and military generals such as Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Ma Chao, and Huang Zhong. And then add the benefits of Xichuan land insurance. Everyone in Shu is together. It is not easy to get the news unobstructed, it can be said that the time, the place, the people are more in their hands, and now I want to decide Xishu in one fell swoop, but there is a way to think about it? β
Hearing Wei Tao's words, Jiang Wei and the others immediately frowned together, if it was really a plan, then it would naturally be possible to make a great contribution, but this is such a big thing. In fact, if you think about it casually, you can understand that even if the three of them think hard, they can't.
In the end, Jiang Wei and the three of them glanced at each other, but Jiang Wei replied with a wry smile.
"Your Majesty, although Liu Bei has both ministers and generals, but after all, the number is limited, if His Majesty can cut it slowly, as long as these people are missing, then Liu Bei will go to the wings, and when the time comes, he will want to Sichuan and Shu. But it's just in the middle of a thought. β
It's really just a clichΓ©.
But even if he couldn't think of any way, Wei Tao couldn't blame them. After all, at this time, Wei Tao is not a life-and-death crisis, and he really doesn't need to be so fierce.
But hearing Jiang Wei's words, Wei Tao was stunned and remembered something.
Xu Shu is a very filial servant.
In the original history, Xu Shu also voted for Liu Bei, and he also severely damaged the troops sent by Cao Cao to attack Xinye several times.
After Cao Cao knew that this person was a virtuous person, he hoped to recruit him, and the last way was to write a letter to Xu Mu's handwriting.
After Xu Shu saw the letter, he really didn't hesitate much, and immediately proposed to Liu Bei to leave, but Liu Bei couldn't, so he could only let him go.
Although Wei Tao's situation is different now, it is also the same, Xu Shu's mother is so filial, and even her personal future and ideals can be put aside, so as long as her mother recruits her, she will definitely abandon Liu Bei.
"Hmmm......"
Tapping lightly on the table, Wei Tao fell into thought, one thing Wei Tao was different from Cao Cao in history.
In history, Cao Cao used the fake handwritten letters of Xu's mother to recruit Xu Shu, but it also led Xu's mother to commit suicide due to humiliation.
And the same is the result of Xu Shu entering Cao Ying and not saying a word.
To be honest, Wei Tao still attaches great importance to Xu Shu's filial piety, so he doesn't want to persecute Xu's mother because of this, and even lead to his death.
But in the same way, this can also explain one thing, Xu's mother has a strong temperament, I am afraid that it is not so convincing in a few words, Wei Tao is also cautious.
"It seems that I want to go on a trip in person, no matter what, with my current identity, how can I compare with Cao Cao in history? Hopefully it will be persuaded. β
After thinking about it for a while, Wei Tao naturally made a decision.
At this time, although it can also be said that it is in wartime, it is absolutely impossible for a person like Wei Tao to command an army to leave lightly, but after all, it was Wei Tao who came to attack Shu at this time, and Jiang Wei had been the vanguard for a while before, and he had already won a big victory, so even if Wei Tao left temporarily in a short time, the problem would not be very big.
However, even so, Wei Tao made arrangements for a while before he took himself to the camp and quietly left the camp and rushed to Yingchuan.
Where Xu's mother is, Wei Tao naturally came to visit, only to see that the house is quiet, as for Xu's mother is spinning and weaving, when she sees Wei Tao coming, she immediately got up and saluted.
"I don't know who your guest is? What is the so-called here? β
Although Wei Tao was surrounded by dozens of fierce people, Xu Mu did not see the slightest fear, and asked slowly, and also saw that it was for the sake of etiquette.
Wei Tao first waved his hand to let everyone retreat, and then bowed to Mother Xu.
"I am Wei Tao, presumably the old lady also knows who I am. I came here today, but I came for Xu Yuanzhi. β
"It turned out to be the emperor of the Liang Dynasty, isn't it me, an old woman of the Han Dynasty, who is in the way of His Majesty's eyes? If this is the case, His Majesty is guilty of restraining the old woman. β
Hearing Wei Tao speak, Xu Mu replied indifferently, if it were others, I am afraid that just hearing such a tone would be angry.
But Wei Tao only shook his head, smiled slightly, and then said directly.
"Why is the old lady so agitated? Although I, Wei Tao, was also a Hanchen, although I replaced him, it can be said that there is nothing to be sorry for the Han in this life. Even if I can, I am always willing to calm the world for a Hanchen and the Han Dynasty. It's a pity that the time is also! Fate! If I have taken possession of it so much that I have to pay it, what can I do? I want to be able to understand my heart with the old lady's reasoning. β
Mother Xu is indeed not the kind of foolish woman in the countryside, and when she heard what Wei Tao said, she couldn't answer for a while, so she had to snort coldly.
"The old woman doesn't know anything important, if Her Majesty has anything to say. If nothing else, the old woman will still weave! β
This is an eviction order.
"The old lady must also know that her son Xu Shu served Liu Bei, and now I have made up my mind to take Xichuan and compete with Liu Bei. Xu Yuanzhi is a great talent, although there are also Xun You, Lu Xun, Zhuge Jin and other generations in our army, but how can it be good to fight with it? After all, even if it can win, I don't know how many troops our army will be consumed and how much vitality will be spent on the Central Plains. β
If you come around the bend, I don't know how long it will take to make sense, so Wei Tao is very straightforward.
"Oh? In this case, who does His Majesty think Liu Bei is? β
Mother Xu's eyes narrowed slightly, and she asked.
"Liu Bei can be called a hero! If this son has the foundation of Liu Yan, Liu Biao and others, then maybe he is really a Sanxing man. It's a pity that when it is not the sky after all, when the dragons and snakes from all walks of life rise up, only I and Cao Cao take the lead, and when Xichuan is won, it can be said that the world has been decided! His background is too low, although he has the heroism of Guangwu, it can't be a success! If I only send generals to garrison the checkpoints, within ten years, the people of Xishu will definitely be exhausted, and they will die! β
Wei Tao did not belittle or elevate, as it was, Xu Mu wanted to refute it, but in the end she found that there was no way to refute it.
For example, among the three great heroes, both Wei Tao and Cao Cao are far superior to him Liu Bei.
"Jun is from the Han ......"
Mother Xu opened her mouth again, and wanted to talk about the virtue of the Han again, I have to say that Mother Xu herself is indeed a bit of an ordinary person, and this kind of insight is by no means something ordinary people can have, but compared to Wei Tao, Mother Xu is still a lot worse, this time Wei Tao did not wait for Mother Xu to finish speaking and then interrupted.
"I know what the old lady means. But can the old lady know that there is a saying, if you offend my big man, although you are far away, you will be punished? I, Wei Tao, are indeed deeply favored by the Great Han, but why do I want to replace him, but I see that the foreign enemy has repeatedly entered the army, and I am determined to expel it to protect the safety of the people. If I don't determine the Central Plains first, even if I am defending against foreign enemies for a while, the vitality of the Central Plains will be exhausted, and the result will be inevitable when the suffering of foreign enemies is inevitable! The old lady knows my heart when she has extraordinary knowledge, but it is needless to say what to return to the country, even if I am willing, my soldiers are willing? β
I have to say that Xu Mu does have extraordinary insight, and she hesitated slightly, but finally understood what Wei Tao meant, and slowly spoke.
"And what do you mean by being here? Since Wu'er is now serving Uncle Liu Huang and should start from the beginning, do you think that the old woman will change her mind? β
Although the words are still harsh, compared to Cao Cao's coming in history, but in a few words, he was beaten out, Wei Tao just knew that this old woman was already a little moved by what he said.
"Old lady, I don't invite myself, but Wei Tao is invited by the people of the world, is the old lady just willing to see my Han family's son, is the vitality of the Han family lost in this kind of battle? I don't want Xu Yuanzhi to turn his head to help immediately, I know that it is not what Xu Yuanzhi wants, as long as he is willing to withdraw and retreat, until the war between me and Liu Bei is calmed down, I am willing to invite him to come out in person! β
After speaking, Wei Tao took a step back slightly, bowed to Mother Xu and said.
"Please also ask the old lady to see how much consideration she has given to throwing her blood on the sake."
Wei Tao is now the emperor of a dynasty after all, and it is already a great etiquette to be able to do this to Xu's mother as a woman, Rao is Xu's mother is strong nature, and she has to be moved, and finally sighed slightly.
"What else can you say about such an old woman, I just hope that Your Majesty will not forget this heart, after all, Your Majesty is also my Han nationality!" (To be continued......)
