Soon after Lu Ji left, news reached Jiangxia that the envoys of Wei had entered Nanyang, Jingzhou, and were on their way to Qi 'Chun' County.

After Liu Xiu got the news, he knew that the other party was here for Zhang Liao and Xun You.

Under Cao's 'Cao', although he lost Xiahoudun, Xiahouyuan, Zhang Jaw and others, he was still full of talents.

Whether it is a military general or a strategist, Cao 'Cao' is not lacking.

However, among these people, there are also three, six, nine and so on, and the important 'sex' is different.

Xun You is the best of the strategists, and he is one of the most core strategists of Cao Cao'.

Zhang Liao is the best of the generals, and he is one of the most important generals of Cao Cao's today.

These two people, Cao 'Cao' can't give up easily.

Liu Xiu sat in the tent, thinking about how to deal with Zhang Liao and Xun You.

Imprisoning the two in Qi 'Chun' County is the next resort.

The best strategy is to take down the two.

Taking the two of them for your own use is the best strategy.

Liu Xiu commanded: "Someone!"

Deng Zhan entered the camp tent and saluted: "King!"

Liu Xiu said: "Bring Zhang Liao up." ”

"Whoa!"

Deng Zhan went down to make arrangements, and after a short time, Zhang Liao was brought into the camp tent.

Zhang Liao was not tied with his hands, he stood in the tent, and when he saw Liu Xiu, his expression was not shocked, and there was no trace of change.

Liu Xiu waved his hand and said, "General Zhang, please take a seat!"

Zhang Liao arched his hand and sat down in the tent.

Liu Xiudao: "General Zhang, are you willing to serve this king?"

These are words of temptation.

Liu Xiu didn't believe it, as soon as he opened his mouth, Zhang Liao would be directly obedient, which was impossible.

Zhang Liaozheng said: "One minister is not a matter of two masters, and the last will be the courtier of the king of Wei, and he cannot serve the king of Chu, please forgive the king of Chu." ”

After Liu Xiu heard this, he sneered twice.

Zhang Liao glanced up at Liu Xiu, but did not ask.

Liu Xiu sneered, or did he mean something?

It's just that he's not interested.

Liu Xiu stared at Zhang Liao, his eyes were like torches, and he said in a deep voice: "If this king remembers well, General Zhang was a general under the command of Bingzhou Mu Ding Yuan at the beginning, right?"

Zhang Liao's brows furrowed.

What does Liu Xiu mean?

Do you want to go through old accounts?

Zhang Liao was frank in his heart, and said: "I did work for Ding Yuan. ”

Liu Xiu continued: "Ding Yuan was killed by Lu Bu, and all the troops under Ding Yuan's command belonged to Dong Zhuo. Then, General Zhang worked for Dong Zhuo, right?"

Zhang Liao said: "There is such a thing. ”

His heart was even heavier.

Liu Xiu's words were all things he had experienced, and it was difficult for him to refute them.

Liu Xiu continued: "After Lu Bu killed Dong Zhuo, General Zhang worked for Lu Bu again, right?"

"Yes!"

Zhang Liao replied directly.

Playing for Lu Bu, Zhang Liao didn't feel anything wrong.

He was a general in the army, and he never betrayed anyone?

Liu Xiu said: "After Cao 'Cao' killed Lu Bu, General Zhang surrendered to Cao Cao'. Now that the general has fallen into the hands of this king, why do you say that one minister does not care about the other masters, and is unwilling to submit to this king?"

In his eyes, there was a joking look.

Zhang Liao is a talent.

He wanted to see how Zhang Liao would answer.

However, today's Zhang Liao, although he is also deeply valued by Cao's 'Cao' and has made many military exploits, in fact, he has not yet reached the peak of history.

Historically, after Zhang Liao returned to Cao's 'Cao', he helped Cao's 'Cao' to recruit Chang Xuan, defeated Yuan Shao, and made many military exploits.

However, the pinnacle battle of Zhang Liao was in 215 AD.

At that time, Cao 'Cao' was attacking Hanzhong and was in a stalemate with Liu Bei. Sun Quan took the opportunity to send troops and dispatched an army of 100,000 to attack He'fei'.

Sun Quan had an army of 100,000 troops, but the total strength of the 'fat' was only 7,000.

There is a huge disparity in strength between the two sides, not at the same level.

It stands to reason that Sun Quan won steadily, but the result was Zhang Liao's victory.

In order to reverse the situation, Zhang Liao set a strategy of first weakening the morale of the Wu army, and then sticking to the strategy of depleting the morale of the Wu army.

Zhang Liao personally recruited 800 dead soldiers and quietly attacked.

Zhang Liao's surprise attack, the Wu army was unprepared, and the formation was broken, and Zhang Liao also killed Chen Wu, the general of Eastern Wu, and others, making the Wu army's formation 'chaotic'. Zhang Liao even 'forced' Sun Quan's tent and almost killed Sun Quan.

Faced with the encirclement of the Wu army, Zhang Liao finally broke through.

After Zhang Liao broke through, Li Dian led people to respond and fight with the Wu army, resulting in heavy casualties and a great demoralization of the Wu army.

After this battle, the morale of Wu's army was frustrated, and Zhang Liao's first step plan was successfully completed.

After that, Sun Quan attacked the city for more than ten days, but he never broke the city and had to retreat with his troops. And when the Wu army retreated, Sun Quan made another big mistake, he took a few generals to patrol the north bank of Xiaoyaojin, and happened to be discovered by the spies of the Wei army.

Zhang Liao made a decisive attack and raided Sun Quan.

Fortunately, Gan Ning, Lu 'Meng' and others fought hard to let Sun Quan escape.

After World War I, Zhang Liao shook the world.

Today's Zhang Liao has not yet reached the point of history.

Zhang Liao stared at Liu Xiu and said in a deep voice: "King Chu, although he has served for Ding Yuan, Dong Zhuo, and Lu Bu, he has never betrayed anyone. ”

"I'm just a soldier below, and I'm only responsible for leading soldiers to fight. ”

"It is not a shameful thing to lead the troops to return to obedience after the death of the commander. ”

"If the king of Chu can destroy the state of Wei, kill the king of Wei, and serve the king of Chu below, it is not impossible. ”

"It's just that the King of Wei is still here, and Zhang Liao will not surrender. ”

"One minister does not do two masters, not to be loyal to one person for a lifetime, but to seek his own government in his position. After taking the money of the king of Wei, he served the king of Wei dutifully. ”

Zhang Liao spoke eloquently and said loudly: "The king of Wei is still here, and Zhang Liao will never surrender." If the king of Chu wants to kill, he has nothing to say. ”

"Good!"

After listening to Zhang Liao's words, Liu Xiu couldn't help but applaud.

Zhang Liao's words, Liu Xiu couldn't help but admire, and he was indeed right.

The more this is the case, the more Liu Xiu admires Zhang Liao.

Liu Xiu originally wanted to make things difficult for Zhang Liao and wanted to suppress Zhang Liao verbally, but after listening to Zhang Liao's words, he gave up his intention to suppress Zhang Liao and extinguished his intention to recruit Zhang Liao.

Cao 'Cao' is still there, and it is absolutely impossible to recruit Zhang Liao.

Liu Xiudao: "General Zhang is a hero, and this king admires him very much. If this king proposes to surrender again, it will be an insult to General Zhang. You stay in the barracks, and you should eat and drink. ”

Zhang Liao stared at Liu Xiu, and suddenly said, "King Chu, you are a soldier below." Since the king of Chu no longer surrenders, why not release Zaixia, and we will compete on the battlefield. ”

After Liu Xiu heard this, he laughed.

Zhang Liao said: "What is the King of Chu laughing at?"

Liu Xiu said: "General Zhang, this king admires you, and he is not recruiting you. But it doesn't mean that this king will return to the mountains and let you return to Cao's command. War is not child's play, it is your life and death, and it is impossible for this king to release you. ”

After hearing this, Zhang Liao sighed lightly.

He originally wanted to 'provoke' Liu Xiu and let Liu Xiu release him.

As long as Liu Xiu is permissive, then Cao 'Cao' will not bother to rescue him and Xun You.

It's a pity that Liu Xiu didn't let people go at all.

Liu Xiu said: "General Zhang, if you say anything superfluous, this king will not say anything, General Zhang will stay in the camp to rest." ”

Immediately, Liu Xiu called the soldiers and asked them to retreat with Zhang Liao.

failed to surrender, Liu Xiu was not discouraged, and this was also expected by Liu Xiu. Liu Xiu immediately ordered the soldiers to send someone to invite Xun You to the camp tent.

Xun You is resourceful and resourceful, and he is Cao's henchman.

In the past, when Liu Xiu was in Xuchang, he met Xun You.

Now that we meet again, things are not people, and Liu Xiu is no longer in the same situation as before.
