The retirement of Nong Bian and Cai Mao's army! After that, Zhang Xiu immediately led his troops to dismantle all the camps set up by the enemy between Di County and Binbang, and then led the army back to that county, the cavalry came and went like the wind, and it took a few days to do all this. When Zhang Xiu dismantled the camp between Deng County and Fancheng, Jia Xu and Zhou Cang also quietly entered Xiangyang City.

Now Xiangyang is only a medium-sized city, it was not too prosperous, and now Xiangyang County is invaded by Xu Huang's department, so that the merchants do not dare to walk in Xiangyang County, so that the streets of Xiangyang City are also extremely depressed, whether there are many merchants or hawkers, and many shops are directly closed.

Jia Xu, Zhou Cang, and fifty elite soldiers did not enter the city together. After all, fifty big men are still very eye-catching, and Jia Xu asked fifty soldiers to disguise themselves as homeless people to take the opportunity to blend into the city, and then gather in the city. He took Zhou Cang, who was dressed as a scholar, into Xiangyang City.

When entering the city, the guards saw Zhou Cang, a black-faced man, and regarded him as a fine work, but there was such a polite and polite person as Jia Xu. The thin-looking scribe vouched that Zhou Cang still successfully followed Jia Xu into the city. I have to say that Jia Xu's appearance played a great role.

When Zhang Xiu saw Jia Xu, he didn't expect that Jia Xu, who was polite, thin-looking, and very famous, would be the "poisoner" praised by the world, and this time, Jia Xu's good appearance deceived the city guards. I have to say that Jia Xu's parents gave him a good skin.

When Jia Xu and Zhou Cang entered the city, they found a post house in the east of Xiangyang City, and a few days later, more than 30 soldiers were found, and more than 10 of them could not enter the city because of their suspicious identities. Jia Xu didn't care either, and said to Zhou Cang: "I'm afraid that Cai Mao's letter has been sent to Liu Biao, Xu will go to see Liu Biao now, Zhou Cang, you stay here with them, and don't walk around to attract attention." ”

After Zhou Cang heard it, he hurriedly said, "Sir." I'll go with you. ”

Jia Xu shook his head and said, "No." Your body shape is too eye-catching, and many people will pay attention to it. ”

Zhou Cang scratched his head and said, "But the lord asked me to protect Mr. closely, if Mr. has an accident, I can't go to the lord on my behalf." ”

Jia Xu smiled and said, "It's okay. It has its own measure. You're here. Don't spoil the lord's business. Speaking of the latter word, it was obviously to warn Zhou Cang.

Zhou Cang heard that it might be a big thing that might harm Zhang Xiu, so he didn't dare to speak. After Jia Xu went out, he ordered two thin soldiers to follow Jia Xu and report anything immediately. Overall. Zhou Cang can also be regarded as thick and fine.

Jia Xu naturally didn't know that there were two soldiers secretly protecting him. Coming directly to the state governor's mansion, the concierge saw that Jia Xu was dressed up, and he didn't dare to slack off, and immediately asked, "What is the matter with Mr. coming here?" ”

Jia Xu handed over the greeting post and said: "Wuwei Jia Xu asked to see the state pastor, and he can solve problems for the state pastor." The porter heard what Jia Xu said. Knowing that he must be a famous person, he didn't dare to slack off, so he took the name card with both hands and ran into the state pastor's mansion quickly.

Liu Biao had already received a letter from Cai Mao yesterday, preparing for the defeat that night. The letter also described in detail the combat strength of Zhang Xiu's cavalry, and analyzed the need to defeat Zhang Xiu's department. It is necessary to embroider more than five times the army to succeed. When Liu Biao received this letter, he had a headache on the spot. Originally, he thought that he would be able to win the battle with more than twice the strength of Yuan Shu and Zhang Xiu, but how did he know that Zhang Xiu came to a horse to step on the company camp, and Yuan Shu retreated, and Cai Mao returned to the division.

When Liu Biao was worried, the porter suddenly came to report: "Lord Zhou Mu, there is a gentleman outside who asks to see him, claiming to be Wuwei Jia Xu, who can solve problems for adults." ”

After listening to it, Liu Biao felt very familiar, and recited a few sentences in a deep voice: "Wuwei tricks" Wuwei Jia Xu. Suddenly, Liu Biao's mind flashed. He lost his voice and said, "It's him." ”

The porter was taken aback by Liu Biao's reaction. After a long time, he asked in a low voice, "My lord, can you see this gentleman?" ”

Liu Biao was reminded by the concierge before he came to his senses. I thought about it. He said, "Please come in." ”

Soon, Jia Xu was led to the hall by the porter, and after the porter retreated, Jia Xu saluted Liu Biao and said, "Wuwei Jia Xu, I have seen Lord Zhoumu." ”

Liu said expressionlessly: "Mr. Jia is here." Aren't you afraid that Mr. Biao's head will be taken off and sent back to Zhang Boyuan? ”

Jia Xu didn't take Liu Biao's threat to heart, but chuckled lightly: "If Lord Zhou Mu takes off Xu's head like this, I'm afraid that the land of Jingzhou will soon be swallowed by Yuan Shu." ”

Liu Biao snorted coldly and said, "As long as it is not given to Dong Thief's minions, what does it matter." ”

Jia Xu smiled and said, "My lord is my lord, and Dong Zhuo is Dong Zhuo." My lord is a dignified general of the Han Dynasty, and he obeys the orders of the Son of Heaven, how did he become a minion of Dong thief? ”

Liu Biao snorted again and said: "Dong thief hijacks the Son of Heaven, and his order is issued, even the Son of Heaven does not dare to object, what is the difference between this and obeying Dong Thief's order?" ”

Jia Xu smiled and said: "Naturally it is different, Dong Zhuo ordered that he should also borrow the mouth of the Son of Heaven, since he is the Son of Heaven", I will go to the natural way, if Tianping has one day ordered to punish the year of Jiayuan; As soon as he walked, he would naturally obey the order and take off Dong Zhuo's head and dedicate it to the Son of Heaven

After Liu Biao heard this, he said: "Clever tongue is like a spring

Jia Xu didn't care, and said: "So the state pastor can be my lord is Dong Zhuo's minions?" ”

Liu Biao did not answer this. Instead, he asked, "I don't know why Mr. Jia is here today?"

Jia Xu listened to Liu Biao's words and knew that he had accepted Zhang Xiu's explanation that he was not Dong Zhuo's subordinate, so he said: "Xu Te came to save the life of Lord Zhou Mu."

After hearing this, Liu Biao did not show the slightest panicked look, but asked, "Mr. is so clever?" ”

Jia Xu heard Liu Biao's sarcasm, and didn't care, but said directly: "If Lord Zhou Mu joins forces with Yuan Shu to attack my lord." Even if the governor wins, I am afraid that General Cai Mao's troops will also suffer heavy losses by then. And Yuan Shu wants to occupy the heart of Jingzhou has long been, it is located in most of Yuzhou and Yangzhou, with a deep heritage, just a wave of the hand, can immediately levy 100,000 soldiers, in this case Jingzhou is empty, the state pastor can only give Jingzhou to Yuan Shu. And Yuan Shu took in Sun Jian's son, and with his character, he will definitely take the life of the state pastor to avenge his father, so it seems that the life of the state pastor is in danger? ”

After Liu Biao heard this, he replied lightly: "According to what Mr. said, I also want to join forces with Zhang Boyuan to discuss Yuan Shu."

Liu Biao can come to Jingzhou alone. Recover Jingzhou Haoqiang one by one. In Jingzhou, he has built his own foundation, and is also known as one of the "Eight Jun", which must be outstanding. At this time, Liu Biao was in the prime of life, and he was not as ambitious as he was in his later years, so he was also very involved at this time.

Jia Xu heard Liu Biao's words, so he replied: "I don't know what the state pastor wants?" ”

Liu Biao snorted coldly and replied: "If you discuss Yuan Shu with Zhang Boyuan, I'm afraid that as soon as Yuan Shu retreats, Jingzhou will have to give up to Zhang Boyuan." Mr. Cousin is a celebrity, so go. After speaking, without waiting for Jia Xu to speak, he directly issued an eviction order.

Jia Xu didn't say much, and gave a salute: "That's it." Retire first. However, Xu Shang will stay in Xiangyang for three more days, and if the governor changes his mind within three days, he can come to find Xu. ”

As soon as Jia Xu returned to the post house, he immediately found Zhou Cang and closed all the doors and windows. When Zhou Cang saw Jia Xu returning safely, he immediately asked, "Sir, has Liu Biao agreed to form an alliance?" ”

Jia Xu shook his head and said, "Liu Biao should have some intention in his heart, but he hasn't made up his mind yet. But let's help him make up his mind tonight

Zhou Cang heard it and said curiously: "What do you mean by what Mr. said?" How can we help Liu Biao make up his mind?

Jia Xu said in a calm tone: "Zhou Cang, I want you to take your soldiers to the post house in the west of the city tonight to kill people." ”

Hearing this, Zhou Cang rubbed his palms excitedly and asked, "Sir, just give an order." ”

Jia Xu nodded and said, "Go and kill Yuan Shu's strategist Yuan Jian who stayed in Xiangyang, and Yuan Shu's soldiers who protect his safety."

After hearing this, Zhou Cang nodded excitedly. But soon his face became very distressed, and he said, "Sir, my weapons are left in the camp. Only brought a short knife close to him, and the soldiers did not dare to bring weapons when they mixed into Xiangyang City, and a few people were not allowed to enter the city with weapons before. As far as I know, the soldiers who protect Yuan Jian have their blades with them, and I am confident that I can kill them all, but I am afraid that I will not be able to quickly resolve the battle and attract the attention of the guards of Xiangyang City."

Zhou Cang hadn't finished speaking, Jia Xu already knew what he was going to say, Jia Xu smiled and said: "It's okay, here is the medicine that Xu occasionally gets, as long as it is mixed with the meal, people will fall asleep after eating, and the whole body will not have any sensation." ”

After hearing this, Zhou Cang was surprised: "There is such a miraculous medicine in the world? What is the name of this medicine? ”

Jia Xu said with a smile: "This medicine is called Ma Boiling San, which is a medicine that is known by the folk medicine of the divine doctor Hua Injury, so as long as Yuan Jian and the fifty soldiers sent by Yuan Shu eat it, they will fall asleep and have no feeling in their whole body." You can kill them all, so that there is no way to retreat, and you can rely on your incorruptible tongue again. It can be said that Liu Biao formed an alliance with the lord to discuss Yuan Shu. Therefore, Zhou Cang, your actions tonight cannot be missed. ”

After Zhou Cang heard this, he said with a solemn expression: "I know that Xiao Liuzi is the most clever, so I will leave the matter of medicine to him."

Jia Xu nodded, because along the way, Jia Xu also knew which of the accompanying soldiers was more clever and which little martial arts were higher, and the little sixth son that Zhou Cang said was indeed the most clever among everyone.

After agreeing. Zhou Cang called Xiao Liuzi over. Then Jia Xu gave a careful order. Since these soldiers are all Zhang Xiu's personal guards, the so-called personal guards are naturally the most credible people, and they are all selected by the methods that Jia Xu came up with, Jia Xu has no doubts about his method of choosing loyal people, so he is also very relieved about Xiao Liuzi, and just instructed when this thing will work best in the meal.
