Chapter 294: It's all human spirits
Subsequently, Liu Jian no longer talked to Jia Xu about recruiting him.
He ordered his soldiers to prepare a meal and began to feast on Jia Xu.
Because he was in the middle of the war, Liu Jian could not drink alcohol.
So he simply had some military meals with Jia Xu and talked about some trivial matters.
During this period, Liu Jian did not talk to Jia Xu about his future prospects.
After eating, Liu Jian ordered Jia Xu to be sent back to his tent.
Liu Jian himself rested in the tent.
Not long after, Guan Yu was ordered to come to report to Liu Jian on the situation in the army, as well as the movement of grain and grass in the rear.
After listening to Guan Yu's words, Liu Jian immediately asked Guan Yu to sit down and talked to him about Jia Xu.
After listening to Liu Jian's words, Guan Yu couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart.
"My brother spent so much effort to arrest Jia Xu, but now he wants to let him go, isn't this a waste of military strength and manpower? Is my brother really willing to do this?"
Liu Jian shook his head and said, "Of course I am unwilling, I captured Jia Xu just so that he can be submissive to me and become my right-hand man, this person is a rare resourceful person in the world, and at the same time, his people have no foundation in Kanto, I need such a special person by my side."
Guan Yu asked solemnly, "Brother, when it comes to resourceful people, you also have a lot of people under your command, is it possible that there is still such a Jia Xu missing?"
Liu Jian shook his head and said, "What you said is right, in terms of wisdom alone, the people under my command are enough-Fu Zhu, Tian Feng, Judge, and now there is a Xun Yu who has also come from afar, with these people here, even if there is no Jia Xu, it will not have a big impact."
"But Jia Xu's identity is more special, I have thought about it carefully, there are some things I can say to Jia Xu, and some things I can discuss with Jia Xu, but others can't."
Liu Jian's words made Guan Yu quite confused.
What can my brother say to Jia Xu? But you can't tell other wise people?
This Jia Xu hasn't promised his brother anything, why does his brother want to introduce him as a confidant?
Liu Jian obviously saw the confusion in Guan Yu's eyes.
He then explained to him: "Yun Chang, judge Tian Feng Xun Yu, they are all Kwantung scholars, although they are also loyal to me, but they also belong to the Guanzhong clan group, they also have their family interests, and the Kwantung clan wants to obtain too many benefits, once my future policies and decisions conflict with their interests, how can I discuss this matter with them?"
Guan Yu probably understood the meaning of Liu Jian's words.
"Brother wants to keep Jia Xu and use it to balance the Kwantung clan?"
Liu Jian said: "It can't be said to be a check and balance, it's just that in terms of how to deal with the Kwantung Shi group, I don't have a wise person around me who can completely support the bottom to discuss, with this person, it will make me feel no longer lonely, Jia Xu is from Liangzhou." The interests of their family are in Liangzhou. But the so-called interests of Liangzhou and the interests of the Kwantung clan are simply negligible."
Guan Yu seemed to be stunned when he heard this.
"Brother, what you think is too far-reaching......
Liu Jian said, "It's not as far-reaching as I think, Yun Chang, you know, what are our goals and ideals? It's to protect the Han family and maintain the prosperity of this country!"
"And in order to prosper the country, anyone may agree with us at some point!"
"So in order to prevent this situation, I have to be fully prepared, we are not for ourselves, we are for the Han."
After listening to Liu Jian's answer, Guan Yu's face showed a look of awe.
"My brother's heart is for the country, and I can't do it."
Afterwards, I heard Guan Yu ask, "Brother said today that he was going to send Jia Xu back, but why? If Jia Xu responds, what should my brother do?"
"He won't leave, in fact, he also knows in his heart that he can't leave from the moment he was captured alive."
Guan Yu was surprised when he heard this: "My brother has promised to let him go, why can't he go
?」
Liu Jian said: "Because he is a smart man, he knows better what kind of virtue Dong Zhuo is, Niu Fu's army was defeated, and Jia Xu led his troops a hundred miles behind Niu Fu's army, what kind of arrangement is this? Do you think he won't be held accountable by Dong Zhuo after he goes back?"
"Besides, if I let him go back and don't let the cattle go, what do you think will happen to him?"
After Liu Jian's explanation, Guan Yu suddenly realized.
Later, I heard Liu Jian say: "Jia Xu is also a smart person, in fact, he knows and can see that Dong Zhuo is not capable of realizing his ambitions, he is too old, and he has a few years to succeed?"
"So, when I talked to Jia Xu today, I also revealed my ambition and ambition, and now in this world, in addition to Dong Zhuo, I am afraid that I am the only one who has ambition, ability and ability, and is willing to use him, a Liangzhou person."
"If he misses me, he wants to meet someone like me again in the future, I'm afraid he won't have a chance."
Guan Yu heard this and thought about it carefully, this is really the case.
Except for Liu Jian, who else in the world knows this Jia Xu? And know what he is capable of?
If it weren't for Liu Jian's insistent request, Guan Yu would not have arrested him.
And at this moment, Jia Xu, who was staying in his tent, was also thinking carefully. ap.
Liu Jian was really extraordinary, and the conversation just now, on the surface, it didn't seem to say anything, but in fact, the tricks were all in his heart.
Of course, Jia Xu was also moved, after all, he had already analyzed it clearly, although Dong Zhuo currently looks powerful, he has no background, there is no doubt that Dong Zhuo will finish sooner or later.
At present, it is undoubtedly the best choice to be able to take refuge under Liu Jian and get his protection.
Although Liu Jianshicai said that he would let himself go back, Jia Xu understood in his heart that it was all nonsense.
Jia Xu also knew that Niu Fu was captured, Niu Fu didn't leave, he went back alone, I was afraid that there would be no good results.
But even so, Jia Xu did not let go, did not promise Liu Jian, and refused on the grounds that his son was under Dong Zhuo.
But this is not because Jia Xu deliberately embarrassed Liu Jian, but because this is a real reason.
Although Jia Xu cherishes his life, he also cherishes the lives of his family.
If there is no way to save his son Jamu, then Jamu would rather sacrifice himself.
However, if Liu Jian had a way to get his son to leave Luoyang, Jia Xu would definitely be willing to join him.
Just as Jia Xu was thinking about this carefully, the curtain of the tent was suddenly lifted, and Liu Jian walked in.
"General? Why are you here?"
Jia Xu stood up in surprise.
Liu Jian smiled and said, "Mr. Wenhe, I have a way to save Mr.'s son from Luoyang, I wonder if Mr. is willing to cooperate with me?"
