"Newspaper—"

"Before, before ......"

"The front line is defeated!"

The scout heard the news with a sweaty face, and then fell to his knees and did not dare to look up.

The little people also have the cleverness of the little people.

They know very well that when they pass on some information, it will kill people.

And it's not just one or two cases.

"Click-"

When the urgent report came, Cao Ren, who was still deploying troops to build a defense system, was stunned in place for a moment, even if the weapon in his hand fell to the ground, it was as if he hadn't noticed it.

Long.

"How, how is that possible?"

Cao Ren recovered, he muttered to himself in disbelief, and then raised the scout, stared at the other party's gaze and said, "Tell me, this is not true, I forgive you for your innocence!" ”

"Front, front, indeed, indeed......"

The scout didn't know if he was stuck in the neck by his clothes, or if he was frightened by Cao Ren, who had a hideous face, and stammered, "Defeated...... Small, villain, really dare not lie. ”

At this time, if he comes according to Cao Ren's words.

He might survive.

But this is only temporary.

When Cao Ren reacted later, he would still die.

Even, even if Cao Ren recovers and wants to protect him for some purpose, he will still die.

And at that time, it will not only be him who will die.

His whole family, thirty-seven people, will be exterminated.

Therefore, even if the scout was so frightened that he urinated, he didn't dare to say what Cao Ren thought.

"I'll kill you!"

Cao Ren reluctantly grabbed the scout's neck, his eyes red, and said, "I must kill you!" ”

“……”

Several generals next to him glanced at each other, not knowing what to do.

After all, Cao Ren is one of the top people in the entire Jingzhou defense system at the moment.

Therefore, not to mention Cao Ren killing a scout, even if he gave the order to slaughter the city again, no one would dare to speak at all.

No.

Specifically, it should be that except for Man Chong, Jia Xu, and others who are either extremely trusted by Cao Cao or have a transcendent status, everyone else will not speak.

Of course, people are different from each other, and there are always some exceptions in this world.

For example, there is an exception among those present at this time.

"He, please put out the Thunder Fury for the time being!"

He is General Pingdi, Zhang He.

In terms of position, Zhang He is indeed inferior to Cao Ren, or ...... Except for Zhang Liao, who has begun to dazzle, few people can catch up with someone like Cao Ren who has followed Cao Cao all the way.

Even if it is a few generations of allegiance like Li Dian, it is far from Cao Ren's position.

But Zhang He is an exception.

Because in the battle of White Wolf Mountain, although Zhang Liao was the undisputed first meritorious service.

But Zhang He also made a contribution in this battle, otherwise he would not have been worshiped as General Pingdi after the war.

More crucially, he also performed well in the Battle of Red Cliffs...... He is the one of the 'Seven Generals' who gathers the remnants the fastest, the first to converge with Cao Cao, and maintains the greatest combat power.

Because of this, even Cao Ren is willing to give some face.

So after he heard Zhang He's persuasion, he threw the scout on the ground.

"I see, you go down."

Seeing the scout crawl away, Cao Ren had become calm when he turned his head again.

"What do you think I should do in the current situation?"

When he spoke, his eyes kept hovering over Zhang He.

Obviously, he wanted Zhang He to give an answer.

"The current situation is too weird and too intense, and the last general doesn't know, but it's ......"

Zhang He shook his head, but just as Cao Ren's eyes gradually became sharp, he suddenly changed his words and said, "Although the last general doesn't know, the general can ask about the talented people who are still in Xiangyang. ”

"Who?"

Cao Ren asked vigorously.

Zhang He glanced at Cao Ren and slowly spit out two words: "Jia Xu." ”

"This person ......"

Cao Ren was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Zhang He to answer like this, and only nodded after a while: "Yes." ”

……

Xiangyang.

"Young man, it's really murderous."

"Millions of stone grains, said to be collected, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, tens of thousands of elite soldiers, said to raise, also raised......"

"Others can't learn yet."

"It's ......"

Smack——!

Jia Xu slowly dropped a word on the chessboard in front of him, and said with emotion: "It's not okay to be old if you don't accept it." ”

"Ah Yun."

After sighing, he slowly put away the chessboard, and turned to the outside: "Pack up your things." ”

"Whoa."

The people outside seemed to be born without curiosity, and after agreeing in a very calm tone, they silently cleaned up.

Of course, he did it very carefully, as if he was tidying up his house on weekdays.

After Jia Xu came out, he happened to see such a scene, and a touch of appreciation couldn't help but appear in his eyes.

He is very fond of this kind of person who can do things without much work.

Because this kind of person is very good for his taste.

Probably because of this, Jia Fei was able to follow him for nearly twenty years......

But the admiration in his eyes was soon disrupted by the sound of footsteps.

"Hey."

Jia Xu sighed, looked up at the sky and said, "This trip, I don't know how many people's lives will be harmed...... However, I had no choice but to do it. ”

"I'm going to live, right?"

"But if that young man makes a move, maybe it can be reversed?"

"Shouldn't I be a better one?"

As he muttered, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought, and his brows furrowed a little.

When Zhang He came in from outside, he saw such a scene.

'He's already thought of it, right?' ’

Zhang He thought of this in his heart, and then subconsciously took three steps back, until he was out of the door, he bowed and said, "Sir." ”

"Huh?"

Jia Xu turned his head and said with a look of surprise: "How did the general come back?" ”

"There is a big defeat at the front, and the front can no longer be built."

Zhang He sighed and shook his head, then looked straight at Jia Xu and said, "I don't know what Mr. has planned?" ”

"There is ...... ahead"

Jia Xu's face was even more surprised, but then he shook his head very decisively and said: "How can you have a clever plan if you can't tell a person who is dying?" ”

"You ......"

Zhang He knew very well how terrifying the old coin in front of him was, and subconsciously wanted to say don't pretend, but thinking of how powerful this person was, he still didn't dare to say it in the end, but said honestly: "General Cao Ren asked me to ask, and please ask Mr. to give me advice." ”

"General Cao Ren?"

After Jia Xu looked embarrassed and couldn't refuse, he nodded solemnly and said, "Okay, wait until I think about it......"

When Zhang He heard this, he stood still and didn't move, only a pair of eyes, still gurgling.

Probably because of fate, he saw Jia Fei who was cleaning up by chance.

If this scene doesn't make him sure, if the guy in front of him has already thought of a way, he is not worthy of being a famous general.

Of course, he didn't speak.

It's just that the expression on his face suddenly became more and more weird.

"There it is."

Jia Xu quickly noticed Zhang He, who was looking at Jia Fei, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh in his heart, pretending to think of a way.

"The last will listen to you."

Zhang He bowed respectfully.

Jia Xu waved his hand, but he didn't say anything, just said in a solemn tone, "I have three strategies." ”

Zhang He: "?!?!?! ”

"The best policy, write back to the prime minister, and wait for the reinforcements to arrive, and then make calculations."

"The middle strategy is to store Xiangyang's goods as much as possible and burn the fields...... After leaving a mess, the formation withdrew to Wancheng and waited for the opportunity to make a comeback. ”

"Make a decision, gather the soldiers of Nanyang, Xiangyang, and Zhangling counties, make a stubborn state, wait until the rainy season arrives, and divert water to irrigate it!"
