Chapter 263 Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao met and occupied the subordinate division
At that time, when he was preparing to send troops, Cao Cao was worried that Yuan Shao and Zhang Xiu would send troops, and Sun Heche Bingbing saw that Yuan Shao did not move, so he was a lot more relieved. But after Zhizhang Xiu sent troops, Cao Cao was nervous. Fortunately, at that time, Guo Jia stood up and analyzed Cao Cao, and concluded that Zhang Xiu's troops were not the Son of Heaven. It is a subordinate place, Guo Jia's remarks were also approved by Cheng Yu, Xi Zhong, Er Xun and others, and Cao Cao felt a lot more at ease. If it weren't for the unanimous judgment of all the strategists, I was afraid that Cao Cao would pull all the troops to prepare for the big battle with Zhang Xiu.
Now after the two of them have spoken. Both sides achieve their goals, and the other side does not object. The tense atmosphere immediately eased.
Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Brother Meng De, since the day of the conversation in Anyi, we have only met in Luoyang in a hurry, and it is rare to see each other today. ”
Cao Cao laughed and said: "It's rare that Bo Yuan has this Yaxing, and he should be accompanied, but there are only you and me, but they are a little lonely." Feng Xiao and Zhicai also came with Cao, and Fang Cai Cao also saw Wen He in Boyuan's army. If we call them together, we can talk freely
Zhang Xiu heard it and laughed: "Reasonable." Let the army set up camp, and then I will wait for my old friends to gather and worship again.
Cao Cao smiled: "Okay."
After the two returned to the formation, Jia Xu and Fa Zheng immediately greeted him, and Fa Zheng said with a smile: "Seeing that the lord and Cao Cao had a good conversation, it seems that the purpose of this trip has been achieved." ”
Zhang Xiu smiled and nodded, and said, "Not bad." embroidered Cao Cao, and after setting up camp, he talked with him about gathering the old. ”
Jia Xu could hear it. His face changed, and he said, "Lord, Cao Cao can't be killed." ”
When Zhang Xiu heard this, he was puzzled: "How did Xiu say that he wanted to kill Cao Cao?" ”
After listening to this, Jia Xu calmed down a little and said: "I saw that the lord openly talked about Cao Cao talking about gathering the old, and I thought that the lord had murderous intentions against Cao Cao. ”
Zhang Xiu smiled and said, "Kill Cao Cao? Not to mention whether Xiu can escape after killing Cao Cao, he has already seen that all the generals in Cao Ying's camp are there. I'm afraid that if Xiu kills Cao Cao, they will all rush up to fight with Xiu. Even if the embroidery can successfully escape. I am afraid that as soon as Cao Cao dies, the Central Plains will immediately be in chaos. I'm afraid that it won't be able to stop for a few years, and no one such as Yuan Shu, Lu Bu, Liu Bei and others will have the ability to unify the Central Plains in a short period of time. And Yuan Shao of Hebei can destroy Gongsun Zan of Youzhou in a few years, when Yuan Shao's army goes south, and the princes of the Central Plains are only afraid of being broken by each of them. What our army lacks most is time, if Yuan Shao can quickly annex the Central Plains. Swing the army to the west, and then our army will be in a fierce battle with it. If Cao Cao is there, there should be more strength to fight against Yuan Shao, to buy time for our army, and Cao Cao is now coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and there are many strategists, it is not difficult to unify the Central Plains in a short time
In fact, Zhang Xiu did not kill Cao Cao, and there was a deeper reason, that is, he did not want to change history. His greatest strength is his grasp of the direction of history. If Cao Cao is killed, Zhang Xiu will not be able to grasp what will happen later. If Cao Cao is not killed, if there is no accident, it should be a battle between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao in Guandu, for this battle, Zhang Xiu also has a plan in his heart. Moreover, it took eight years for Cao Cao to annex Yuan Shao's four states after Guandu, and Zhang Xiuzi could use these eight years to take down Yizhou, and then he would be invincible, and he already had the strength to get rid of history and grasp the general trend. How to fight against the Kwantung princes, there are many civil and military generals to assist.
And now Zhang Xiu has not gotten rid of the strength of history to grasp the general trend, so he can only try to maintain history and show his power from weak places. As for why Cao Cao was invited to talk. I'm afraid that Zhang Xiu's inner desire as a traverser is making trouble, after all, after today, there may not be such an opportunity to talk freely between him and Cao Cao.
Jia Xu and Fa Zheng were relieved to see that Zhang Xiu had no intention of killing Cao Cao, although they didn't know why Zhang Xiu wanted to talk to Cao Cao and his advisers in one more move, but Jia Xu, who had followed Zhang Xiu for many years, was no longer surprised by Zhang Xiu's strange actions from time to time.
So Zhang Xiu asked Zhao Yun to arrange for the army to set up camp and prepare tea, meat and fruits
Here Cao Cao returned to the formation and shared the matter with everyone, and the generals unanimously opposed Cao Cao going to Zhang Xiu. After hearing this, Guo Jia grinned and said, "You can rest assured, the lord will be safe and sound." Jia tasted the taste of that tea at the lord's place last time, and he still can't forget it, and today he just asked Zhang Boyuan for some. ”
Cheng Yu and Xi Zhong also smiled and nodded, indicating that Cao Cao was okay. However, Cao Ren was still not at ease, and said to the Xiahou brothers: "Yuan Rang, Miaocai, you and Dian Wei will go together to protect the safety of the lord, Zhang Xiu and Zhao Yun are strong in martial arts, and only the three of us can fight with them, if anything happens, we will come to support immediately." ”
Xiahoudun nodded solemnly. said: "Even if he fights for his life, he will ensure the safe return of the eldest brother." ”
Cao Cao felt a warmth in his heart, and Cao Cao deeply trusted Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Dun, Cao Ren, and Cao Hong, who were brothers of the same clan. Then he said with a smile: "With Yuan Rang and Miaocai guards, even if Zhang Xiu wants to kill Cao, I'm afraid he will have to be buried together." Text, time
Soon, the two armies were already in peace. And in the middle of the camp of the two armies, seven tables were placed on the ground. Zhang Xiu led Jia Xu and Fa Zheng to sit on the ground in front of the table, and Zhao Yun stood behind Zhang Xiu as a guard. Before long, Cao Cao led Guo Jia, Xi Zhong and others to sit down.
Zhang Xiu saw a middle-aged man of the same age as Jia Xu sitting down on Cao Cao's side, and knew that he was Cheng Yu. Seeing Guo Jia picking up the teapot and pouring out a cup of hot tea without scruples and drinking it, Zhang Xiu smiled and said: "The prodigal son is really still the prodigal son of the year, even if he is old, he is still so prodigal."
Guo Jia laughed and said: "Da Sima has won the award, Jia is especially fond of this tea, I wonder if Da Sima can give Jia ten catties and eight catties?" ”
Zhang Xiu smiled: "Since Fengxiao likes it." Embroidered from when sent. Today is a gathering of old friends, and those official positions in the court can be removed. ”
Guo Jia immediately hit the snake with the stick, and said with a smile: "Thank you Boyuan for the tea"
Cao Cao, who was on the side, sighed: "It's a pity that Wen Ruo, Gongda, Yuan Chang, and Bohou can't come together." ”
Zhang Xiu smiled: "They are entangled in business. Isn't it like we are waiting for a while, today there are more Mr. Zhongde and Xiaozhi, which can make up for their shortcomings. ”
After that, several people began to talk about the world, starting with poetry, talking about the country's current political affairs. Compared with that time in Hedong, Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao both felt a lot of emotion, especially Cao Cao, who would have thought that the Han Dynasty would be so good at the field, and he would become a prince. Recalling the previous scene when he saw Liu Xie, the son of heaven, and the ministers down, Cao Cao's heart kept changing.
At this time, Fa Zheng suddenly said: "Now that the Han Dynasty is in turmoil, and the princes everywhere do not respect the Han family of the Son of Heaven, now my lord is ordered to rebuild Sili and Luoyang." Lord Cao is the pastor of Chongzhou, and the division is connected to Chongzhou. Why don't Lord Cao join forces with my lord to ask for disobedience. ”
In fact, Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao had already had this intention, but everyone knew that they were both Hanchens, and this alliance could not be clearly stated. Cao Cao looked up and down again, and he was quite impressed by this young man, and he had many whimsical ideas when he spoke. And every sentence is reasonable, Cao Cao immediately felt that the law was not to be underestimated.
Hearing the Fa is justified and mentioned first. Zhang Xiu gave Fa Zheng a well-done look, while Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia and the others. All three nodded silently in agreement. Although there was no military encounter with Zhang Xiu before, what Cao Cao and the three of them were most worried about was that Zhang Xiu would stab Cao Cao in the back when he was marching east to Xuzhou. Of course, the most credible thing in troubled times is the covenant, but it is Fa Zheng who proposed that the two parties join forces, which means that Zhang Xiu has no interest in Kanto, and it doesn't matter how you fight Zhang Xiu, you don't care about me in Kansai.
This remark, a signal to Cao Cao and the others, made them reassured. I saw Cao Cao smile and said: "What Xiaozhi said is very true, what does Bo Yuan think?" ”
Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "It is a great thing to be able to join forces with Meng De. ”
At this time, Guo Jia raised the porcelain cup and said: "Although there is no wine in the army, I will replace the wine with tea today, so I should celebrate it well." As for what to celebrate, a few people naturally knew that they would not say it clearly.
After that, they chatted for a while. Only then did they return to the camp, and later the Xiahou brothers, Zhao Yun, and Dian Wei saw that the hostility between the two sides had completely disappeared. also got together to talk about some martial arts, and the two sides ended happily in the end.
Early in the morning of the second day, Cao Cao led everyone to say goodbye to Zhang Xiu and others, and then led the army back to Chongzhou. After Cao Cao left, Zhang Xiu immediately took action. Let Shen Yi lead 3,000 cavalry to fetch the ships collected from the Baibo Army, cross the Yellow River north and take down the counties of Hanoi County on the opposite bank of the Yellow River north of Luoyang, west of the Tiger Pass. There were almost no defenders in these counties, and Zhang Xiu's army basically surrendered as soon as it arrived.
5,000 cavalry went to take over Hanoi County, Zhang Xiu asked Zhao Yun to lead Lei Yun to ride to garrison the Tiger Pass, and Hu Che'er led 2,000 cavalry to garrison Bishui Pass, and within a few days, all the important roads from the eastern part of the country to the division were occupied. In addition, Zhang Xiu asked Meng Da to lead 5,000 cavalry to send the 40,000 Baibo troops who had surrendered to Wancheng. After that, he quickly asked Zhong Garlic in Nanyang, Du Ji in Shangyong and Li Ru in Hanzhong to send officials to the Sili area to take over Daxiao County in Hedong County and Hongnong County. He also sent a letter to Zhang Liao and asked him to collect and train the soldiers as soon as possible.
Just when Zhang Xiu was busy taking over the Sili area. There was good news from Guanzhong that Xu Huang's army had taken Chang'an, and after the Xiliang army at the Qingni Pass knew that Li Xu, Guo Ji, and Fan Chou were dead, the guard general switched down Huaxiong.
Zhang Xiu immediately let Hua Xiong lead an army of 10,000 into Sili. recovered all the places, and handed over all the surrendered troops to Zhang Liao to deal with.
So far, Zhang Xiu's strategy of taking down his subordinates can be said to be roughly completed.
