Chapter 171: Zhang Xiu is the boss

Nanyang is located in China, neither south nor north, even in winter, it is not necessarily ice and snow weather, the whole winter, sometimes only half a month of snow.

However, the wind is very strong. Liu Pet stood on his horse, couldn't help wrapping his battle robe again, and complained in his mouth: "Why do you have to fight in winter, your hands are so cold that you can't even hold your weapon steadily." ”

Liu Dang took a small step forward: "King Chen, we are still good, we are well armed, and most of us are from the Chen State, unlike the Jingzhou soldiers, some of them are even from Jingnan, and the southerners can't stand the cold." ”

Liu Pet: "Yuan Shu and Liu Biao too, Lao Tzu has been here for a month, and the winner should be divided, and he has to delay." That Yuan Shu too, I thought that when I came, I would stimulate him, he could be hot-headed and have a big battle, but I didn't expect it to be so painless now. ”

Liu Dang is now just as Liu Pet said, more and more of a famous general's temperament, and his consideration of problems is becoming more and more professional. said: "King Chen, my Sparta does not enter the city to station, but is scattered in the nearby villages, and it takes time to assemble, you see, should we discuss with Yuan Shu and let him borrow a county seat from us, so that the brothers can go into the city to rest and recuperate." ”

Liu Pet turned his head: "Liu Kang, you remember for me, anyone can enjoy it, but the soldier can't." What I need is a group of soldiers who are always fighting and vigilant to protect our people, not a group of old soldiers who only know how to enjoy. Do you think I don't know the bitter cold of the countryside? That's why I did it because I knew. ”

"Also, we live in these villages and towns, the military discipline is strict, the brothers and the local people have no offenses, and they are given money for food and clothing. You look at other places, where Yuan Shu and Cai Mao's army passed. The eyes of the people are bright, and when they are compared, the reputation of our army will spread secretly. ”

"Liu Kang, whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world."

Then Liu Pet shouted sternly: "You warn me that the little rabbits, take care of the things in the crotch, if anyone causes something wrong here, they will pick up the skin for me and stay here as a farmer." ”

Liu Dare was shocked, Sparta has a high salary, good welfare, and everywhere he goes, it is in the limelight, this is not only a matter of welfare, but also a matter of face, if anyone is dismissed by Sparta, it is better to die on the battlefield.

"Yes, I understand."

"Report, King Chen, there is a person outside the existence, he asked me to give this to King Chen, and said that King Chen will see him when he sees this."

Liu Pet looked down and saw a black shadow pattern.

"Let him in and bring him to me."

After a while, Liu Pet was the only one in Liu Pet's military tent, and there was a thin but capable person, Liu Pet knew that he couldn't underestimate this person, because in this winter, although he was thin, he was only wearing a thin layer of single clothes on his body, and his expression was calm.

"What's the news from Jia Xu?"

The man bowed his head: "Back to the lord, the commander ordered me to report." It is said that Situ, the king of Chang'an, wrote to Dong Zhuo and suggested that Luoyang, the capital be recovered, with the intention of provoking a new battle between Dong Zhuo and the Kwantung princes. Wang Situ's conspiracy had been seen through by Li Ru, and the commander took the opportunity to persuade Zhang Ji to ask for Dong Zhuo's military order, and he would soon enter the military pass. The commander said that Yuan Shu and Liu Biao were too peaceful, which was not conducive to Zhang Ji's entry into Nanyang, and hoped that the lord would try to make Yuan Shu and Liu Biao go to war. ”

Liu Pet: "Oh, Zhang Ji has already received Dong Zhuo's order?" It seems that the commander of your family has indeed done a lot of things for Zhang Ji. ”

The man was shocked and hurried: "Lord, do you want to spy on the commander?" "The shadow is only loyal to one person, even if it is Jia Xu, the leader of the shadow, he can't pass Liu Chong's command.

Liu Chong smiled: "Don't worry, no, I still know Jia Xu, don't doubt his loyalty." ”

Jia Xu is indeed a good person, compared with Lu Bu and Liu Bei and others, Jia Xu is a saint. Jia Xu is good at self-preservation, once he feels unsafe, the current lord can't protect himself, he just finds another way. But Jia Xu's alternative way out is different from Liu Bei, Lu Bu and others. While Jia Xu is looking for another way out, he usually seeks peace for his old club, just like Zhang Xiu.

Jia Xu wanted to mess with Cao Cao, and before leaving, he also arranged a way for Zhang Xiu to live, and in the end, the two of them lived peacefully and soundly. This is Jia Xu, even if he thinks you can't do it, he won't harm you, but will think of a way out for you.

Liu Pet: "Let Yuan Shu fight with Liu Biao?" Hey, I know, you go back and tell Jia Xu, see the right time to persuade Zhang Ji to attack Wuguan, even if Yuan Shu's army of 60,000 or 70,000 turns back, it's a big deal that I will openly break with him and send troops to Nanyang, this time, Yuan Shu can't stay in Nanyang, he must go. ”

Shadow: "Yes"

Liu Pet lowered his head and thought about it for a long, long time, looking for Yuan Shu, it was better to do it himself.

"Liu Kang, order Sparta, assemble, copy Cai Mao's logistics."

Clan, this is a city, in the north of Wuguan, south of Hangu Pass, an army of 20,000 horses is quietly hiding here, no one notices.

The heroic Zhang Xiu walked behind Zhang Ji: "Uncle, the grain and grass are enough for us 20,000 people for half a year, and Xiangguo is also quite generous." ”

Zhang Ji: "Dingyuan, remember, don't be frizzy, think more about everything." This is just a ploy by Li Ru. ”

Zhang Xiu frowned: "Li Ru's plan? ”

Zhang Ji turned around and said, "Of course, Li Ru is now trying to restore relations with the Kwantung princes and completely disintegrate the alliance. Showing favor to King Chen before, and then showing favor to Liu Bei, recognizing Cao Cao's status as a Yanzhou pastor, are all Li Ru's conspiracy, which is what Wen He said. "And when we proposed to send troops to Nanyang, it was not so much that Xiangguo agreed, but that Li Ru agreed. The world is begging for Yuan, and Yuan is the leader. And send troops to Nanyang, do you think Li Ru can't see the thoughts of your uncle and nephew? He knows, he knows, we want to stay away from Xiangguo and stand on our own, Li Ru knows. But he also let us come because we were born in Xiliang, and even if we are self-reliant, we will not be enemies of Xiangguo. The Nanyang Wuguan is equivalent to the southern barrier of Chang'an. ”

Zhang Xiu was shocked: "Oh, let us come to Nanyang, in fact, we want to pass through us and guard the south gate, and then he will go east, from Luoyang, and then Xu Tu Central Plains." ”

Zhang Ji nodded, a little relieved: "When you grow up, as long as you are willing to use your brain, you can always surprise me, good, good, just think about it." ”

"This Zhang family will be handed over to you sooner or later, it's better to look at you and remind you while I'm still alive. This time to attack Nanyang, I will give you the power of the army and let you be the commander, and it is time for you to learn and learn. ”

The two were talking easily, and suddenly Zhang Ji said something like this, which made Zhang Xiu shocked: "Uncle, this ---"

I saw Zhang Ji smile and look at Zhang Xiu: "The Zhang family, sooner or later it will be yours, and this army is also yours." After speaking, he gradually returned to the city with the guards, leaving Zhang Xiu nervous, excited and uneasy.

The next day, Zhang Ji announced that he would abdicate with Zhang Xiu, and at the same time hand over the tiger charm, and the lieutenant colonels of the seven corps disappeared inexplicably.

Zhang Xiu, become the boss.

To be the boss, you have to look like the boss, and the seven captains who disappeared can actually be understood by many people. The so-called once a son of heaven and a courtier, the boss has changed, and of course the subordinates must also be replaced by loyal ones.

Zhang embroidered the military tent, simmered wine, a large cauldron in the middle gurgling hot, in which large pieces of meat rolled with the boiling water soup, winning is tempting.

It should have been a pleasant little banquet, but at this time, four of the five people in the tent had their eyes wandering and were a little nervous. Seeing their restlessness, their minds were not on wine and meat.

Young Zhang Xiu, when he was in full swing, saw Zhang Xiu raise his wine glass and face the four of them: "General Hu Che'er, General Lei Xu, General Zhang Xian, General Mengtong, come, I will give you a glass." ”

Zhang Xiu drank it all happily, and the four people below, even the tall Hu Che'er, had an unnatural smile. Although Hu Che'er is infinitely powerful, he is always a little unconfident in the face of Zhang Xiu, who is known as the gun king of the North. Hu Che'er couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in his heart, yesterday he killed seven lieutenants who didn't seem to approve of Zhang Xiu in one go. If he kills me today, I'm afraid I won't be able to beat him, and I won't be able to escape. Although Zhang Xiu is young, he has the style of his uncle, even stronger than his uncle.

That's it, that's it, let's mess with him in the future.

So Hu Che'er took the lead: "The lord is on top, and he will be worshiped by Hu Che'er, and from now on, before and after the saddle, he should live up to the lord." ”

When the other three saw it, they didn't understand anything, and immediately followed Hu Che'er's example, put down the wine glass, and knelt down to meet the lord.

Zhang Xiu saw it, laughed hahahaha, and was happy in his heart. Seven captains can be killed, and they can be killed, but Hu Che'er, the four generals, can't be killed, and killing one is a loss to the strength of the Zhang family. At this time, seeing that the four of them were interested at the same time, Zhang Xiu also reciprocated.

"Okay, four generals, please get up quickly, from now on, we will be a family. The four generals will continue to take up their posts in the future, and they will still lead their own departments. Tomorrow, follow me to break through the Wuguan and enter Nanyang. ”

Zhang Xiu subdued the four fierce generals, only repaired in the clan for two days, prepared all the grain and grass, and marched to Wuguan before dawn on the third day.

Zhang Xiu said to Zhang Ji: "Uncle, there are not many defenders in Wuguan, and our army is sudden, within three days, we will definitely take Wuguan, after taking Wuguan, what should we do, uncle?" ”

Zhang Ji was in front of everyone: "General Yu, Lord Nanyang Taishou, my subordinates think that after our army takes Wuguan, when Yuan Highway does not react in time and the main force is not in Wancheng, leave a small army to guard Wuguan, and the army will go straight to Wancheng, as long as Wancheng is taken, even if Yuan Highway counterattacks, as long as our army is held for three months, Yuan Highway will be defeated." ”

Zhang Xiu was shocked: "Uncle, you ----"

Zhang Ji: "My lord, in front of business, how can there be an uncle, and his subordinates are subordinates of adults." ”

Zhang Xiu was moved in his heart, Zhang Ji did this on purpose, so that he could show others and give Zhang Xiu majesty.

What is affordable and can be put down, and what is treated like a parent.

As soon as Zhang Xiu thought of this, he felt proud in his heart, don't worry, uncle, I will definitely make a show for you, I will not let you down.

"Okay, Zhang Ji."

Zhang Ji: "Yes." ”

"Let you be the vanguard and lead the cavalry to raid Wuguan, and our army will arrive later."

"No."

Zhang Xiu, at this moment, is the real boss.
