"Liu Bei's matter, then leave it alone for the time being," Cao Cao was happy, originally he planned to let Liu Bei take an official position in Xuzhou, but now that it is handed over to Yuncheng, he should be more at ease.

Zhang Han's words are good, the friendship between life and death is stronger than anything else, Xuzhou is entrusted to Yuncheng, just like the rear is entrusted to Wen Ruo.

"Bochang, when you return to Juancheng, you go to my mansion and find Yu'er to take back the gift that Bao Xiang gave you."

Zhang Han: "??? ”

Why is the gift from Bao Xiang in your mansion!?

"It's all cloth, gold, silver and jade, I can also give it to you, why worry about it."

Cao Cao's eyes were blank and he turned his face away and did not look at Zhang Han.

That night, Cao Cao dragged them to discuss for a long time, and talked about many personnel appointments, including the general Zhang Liao, and the mountain hermit clan in Xuzhou.

Cao Cao learned about many local celebrities and powerful families in the news and various news he sent.

There are a few hidden pieces of information that can be kept in mind and should be useful in the future.

One is that Chen Gui and Yuan Shu have known each other since childhood, and the two families have been in-laws for many years and have a close relationship.

There is also a piece of news that among the clans in the county, Langya has a clan named Zhuge , and the ancestors have three princes and nine qing, which also belong to the big family.

But Zhuge is in Langya, and it is not so easy to get in touch.

Cao Cao had the heart to make friends, so he could only wait for Zang Ba to lead the troops to retreat to Mount Tai, and Bao Xin came with the troops.

By the time we finished chatting, it was late at night.

By the time they returned to the mansion, Dian Wei had eaten and drunk almost as well as the guards, and there was basically nothing left.

Angry, Zhang Han screamed and went back to the house to sleep, this mansion is big and comfortable, he plans to use it to meet guests next time, and then find a way to have another drink.

……

At night, on the river surface where Danyang enters the Lujiang River, several large ships have formed a team and walked on the sparkling river.

It's quite beautiful in the moonlight.

On the deck of one of the ships, two people, one big and one small, were looking at the river.

The middle-aged man is elegant and dignified, with a long robe and a body, and the cloth on his body is quite gorgeous.

The boy was about nine years old, but he was already tall and on the shoulders of a middle-aged man.

The young man was very handsome, his eyes were clear and bright, and he was listening carefully to the words of the middle-aged man.

He smiled expectantly, and said quickly: "It's a plan that has been laid out a long time ago!" Cao Cao entangled Lu Bu with soldiers and horses, in fact, mainly to capture Xiapi! ”

"And Chen Gui and Chen Deng, who were guarding in Xiapi, actually received Cao Cao's favor and exchanged wild geese as early as when Que Xuan rebelled."

"That's right," the middle-aged man smiled with relief, with a slight approval in his eyes, "Liang'er, if the war is over, it is easy for you to think about the context again, but you have to know how to plan it in advance." ”

"From scratch, there is a fundamental difference between starting from scratch and following the map."

The young man beside him bowed with a serious expression, "Liang'er knows, thank you uncle for telling me." ”

"I'll test you again, how much do you remember about the entire battle context I said?"

The middle-aged man smiled with satisfaction, admiring this nephew very much, and even felt extremely expectant.

The middle-aged man's name is Zhuge Xuan, who lives in Yangzhou and belongs to Yuan Shu, who sent him to Chang'an to report the situation a few years ago.

And after he finished the matter, he went back to Langya's hometown, took away several nephews who had lost their father, and took refuge in Jingzhou.

At the same time, he also took away his family.

It's not that they can't stay in Xuzhou, but Zhuge Xuanguan is in Yangzhou, and there is no one in power in Langya's hometown, and the Zhuge clan of other branches have run out to take refuge.

If he didn't take care of his brother and children, they wouldn't know how to survive in the troubled times, and they wouldn't be able to pin their hopes on Cao Cao's benevolence, right?

Moreover, he has to be too guarded by Yuan Shubiao, and he is in opposition to Cao Cao, so he may not be treated well, so he can only take his two nephews and two nieces to leave first.

Once the city of Xuzhou starts a war, life and death are unpredictable...... Maybe one day a water attack and fire attack strategy can destroy a city and a family's industry, although Langya's hometown is an ancestral land, but it can only be abandoned.

But the industry is also purchased by people, so it is better to take people away, go to a stable place to study slowly, learn from others' strengths, and then try to make achievements in the future.

Among these nephews, the one he admires the most is not Zhuge Jin, who has already traveled, but the second Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang is gifted and intelligent, he has been brilliant since he was a child, and he is loved by the clansmen, and the gentlemen who taught him all love him for his studious and talented.

Moreover, on the way, he kept asking about the Xuzhou War, and in desperation, Zhuge Xuan could only know and analyze what he knew, and slowly guide the teaching, but at the same time, he also thought that if he could send his nephew to a place where famous people gathered, maybe he could meet a famous teacher, and he would have a great future in the future.

It's better than following yourself.

Now the situation in Yangzhou is not good, if the whole family follows themselves to Yuzhang, once the city gate is broken and the army is defeated and surrounded, then the family is finished.

Therefore, this is also an opportunity for him to consider, if this nephew really has a talent that is difficult to find today, then send him to Jingzhou, and use his connections to find him a famous teacher, so that he can make contributions in the future.

At this time, Zhuge Liang did not answer this question immediately, but thought carefully for a long time before he arched his hand and said, "My nephew has remembered everything." ”

"Okay, then let me ask you again, what is the most critical point in this whole battle?"

Zhuge Xuan also understood it for a long time before he deeply understood the subtlety.

Zhuge Liang looked at the river, once again recalled all the processes, as well as the peculiarities of Uncle Fangcai's guidance, and then turned his face and smiled: "It's where morality lies, everything is smooth." ”

"People's hearts are inclined to the Cao family, Cao Cao's benevolence and righteousness are in the army, the battle situation is fatherly and righteous, and Tao Qian loses benevolence and righteousness, and everyone betrays his relatives, so the key is why Cao Cao will attack Xu with benevolence and righteousness, and he will not commit any crime against the people!"

Zhuge Liang's eyes immediately lit up, and he thought about it again, and thought of a little more from the words that his uncle had said before, and said excitedly: "Juntun! Uncle Fang just said that Cao Cao has resorted to benevolence and righteousness since the beginning of Juntun, although Juntun will also die, but it can be exchanged for 10,000 acres of fertile land, that Cao Gong only needs to adhere to the table of benevolence and righteousness, because the dead have died, and the living can enjoy benevolence and righteousness. ”

The living enjoy benevolence and righteousness, but the dead are gone.

Zhuge Xuan pondered these words, and looked at his nephew again in surprise, he was looking at the waves on the river with shining eyes.

And this remark can't help but make people feel that he can have such insight at the age of nine or ten years old.

Could it be that he is really a genius, and he can already have such a heart before he meets a famous teacher, which is really commendable.

"Liang'er, what you said is above me," Zhuge Jin praised calmly, he knew that his talent and learning could not be called "talented", and it was only after years of accumulation of perception that he had achieved something, but Zhuge Liang was different, he was only ten years old, and he was already able to understand strategic strategies at such an age, and he was tired of it.

I have to say, this is early wisdom.

And he found that Zhuge Liang had a good memory.

"Liang'er, do you have the ability to forget?"

Zhuge Liang smiled modestly, "Liang'er doesn't know, but the things I've seen will be remembered more deeply, and when I want to think about it, it's easy to remember." ”

This is talent, an intellectual talent that Zhang Han can't envy.

"Okay, Liang'er is really a genius, uncle shouldn't take you to Yangzhou, Yuan Shu is not a master, the place of war is not conducive to your studies, you should go to Jingzhou instead......"

He sighed with emotion, and there was a little more reluctance in his words, the blood relatives of the family, who had not been together for a long time, needed to separate.

And this parting may be a lifetime.

The uncle and nephew were silent, Zhuge Liang was indeed precocious, he understood the meaning of his uncle's words, if this was really arranged, there would be fewer opportunities to meet each other in the future.

My eldest brother has been traveling for many years, and after the war, he lost contact with him, and I don't know where he is.

"What are Liang'er's ambitions?"

"Ambition?" Zhuge Liang looked puzzled.

After thinking about it for a long time, he said softly: "Liang'er also wants to fight with others and try to win or lose." ”

"For example, in this Xuzhou war, the most critical person ......"

Zhuge Xuan smiled: "Do you want to fight with Cao Cao?" ”

This ambition is incredible, if Cao Mengde can live to that time, I am afraid that he will not only be a prince, but the northern overlord of the north and south of the Yellow River.

"No, it's the young master you mentioned several times, Zhang Bochang."

"Huh?" Zhuge Xuan's gaze suddenly became unexpected, "He? I don't know where he came from, I only know the Tuntian policy he offered. ”

Zhuge Liang became more and more determined, and said with a smile: "Liang'er dares to assert that Cao Gong's momentum is to be happy from now on, this master who has been hidden under the tent in many wars, but can be seen repeatedly, there must be many surprises." ”

"If you can, my nephew's ambition is to play against this person in the future!"

He clenched his fist slightly, Zhuge Liang gathered clues, and it was roughly known that Zhang Handing was an important figure in Cao Ying, and he was so young, and now he was only in his early twenties, and he already had merits.

Ten years later, when he has learned something, can Zhang Bochang's name still be hidden?

……

"It's a real surprise."

Xiapi City.

Liu Bei came back from visiting the sages late at night, and they talked a lot with the Chen father and son, but knew that they had no intention of friendship, so they took their leave and left.

This kind of thing often happened in Liu Bei's life, because he didn't care anymore, and he still had a smile on his face when he left.

But when he was about to reach the mansion, his eyes lit up, and he was stunned at the entrance of the street, because he saw several carriages coming from the door of Zhang Han's mansion, and the people who came down from them carried belongings, wine, and many carved things of great value.

It should be whitewashed household goods, these things are not strange, strange is the owner of this line of carriages and horses.

Sun Qian, Mi Zhu, Mi Fang.

Seeing this scene from afar, Liu Bei's eyes lit up, his expression suddenly became exciting, he pointed to the front and left and right and said with a smile: "Yun Chang, Yide, look." ”

"I said earlier that Sun Qian and the Mi brothers will not switch to feeding tigers and wolves, they are also people with benevolent and righteous hearts, and sure enough, they have already escaped from Xiapi."

"Phew! What a surprise! Zhang Fei glanced at it, his eyes suddenly ignited with anger, and he scraped those figures fiercely, and said angrily: "I told me where they went, and I was ashamed to persuade that Sun Qian to come to my brother, but it turned out that they all went to Zhang Han as a dog!" ”

"These rat-eyed things, they don't deserve to follow my brother's side!"

"Hahaha!" Liu Bei laughed heartily, "The third brother doesn't have to be angry, everyone has their own way to go, why do you need to add to your troubles, it's good that they escaped, I have always been worried about the safety of these three people, it turns out that there is already a place to stay!" Well, now I don't have to worry about it! Isn't that a surprise? ”

"Brother is humble and broad-minded, he is a first-class hero in the world, these people are not worthy of following, there is really no need to worry," Guan Yu chuckled, stroked his beard with one hand, and said lightly: "Let's go, our brother will go back and drink." ”

After arriving at the mansion, Liu Bei closed the door, and the three brothers sat close to drink, and also chatted about their future plans.

Talking about these things, he naturally called Jian Yong together, these people are all of Liu Bei's henchmen now.

There are more than 1,000 soldiers in the army, which is equivalent to his family business, but this group of people is still "mercenaries", wandering everywhere to find a way to survive.

Liu Bei himself also knows that what is not good is the low-profile version of Lu Bu and the wolf ride.

Cao Cao didn't need it, but he definitely wouldn't let them grow in his territory, and if he wanted to go, he could only go far away and find another master. If you want to vote, you should wholeheartedly seek internal and external politics for him, not to Qin and Duchu.

Liu Bei has a mirror in his heart, and now as long as Cao Cao still advocates benevolence, righteousness, and grace one day, then he has no reason to vote for others, because the two have the same philosophy for the time being.

"Seeing this Sun Qian and Mi Zhu brothers today, I roughly know that Zhang Han has robbed a lot, although this person is the main book, but his martial arts are outstanding, and he is quite similar to Zilong, and it would be great if he could make friends," Liu Bei said with a smile on his eyebrows, but the other two brothers were not interested.

Jian Yong was stunned and asked puzzledly, "What does the lord mean?" Have you seen Sun Qian and Mi Zhu Mi Fang? ”

Liu Bei told him what he saw tonight, which made Jian Yong fall into deep regret, and sighed: "That's a pity, aside from benevolence and righteousness, we came to Xuzhou this time, and we consumed troops and mental strength, and in the end nothing was left behind." ”

"Haha, Xianhe, I can't say that, at least I am standing in the right place of benevolence, and I have not departed from our original intention, I ask you now, I want to make friends with Zhang Han, what do you think?!"

Jian Yong's face was embarrassed, and it was difficult to respond.

Guan Yu sighed: "He is Cao Cao's master book, if the eldest brother is too close to him, it is inappropriate." ”

"That's too, but it's good to drink a drink after all, we have to help Han with Cao Gong for many years, we can't live in seclusion all day long to avoid suspicion, right?" Liu Bei smiled frankly, quite a gentleman's demeanor.

As long as the mind is open, he is not afraid of what others say, "Isn't Yun Chang also going to drink with the heroes he admires and chat about the Spring and Autumn Festival together?" ”

"That's ......" Guan Yu lowered his head and smiled, so he was in love, and he really wanted to make friends.

"Then go ahead, no matter what my brother wants to do, my brother will definitely support him."

"I'm the same!" Zhang Fei clenched his fists.

On the third day, on the eve of the march, Liu Bei and Zhang Han walked at the end after the discussion, and after approaching, he called Bo Chang and said with a smile: "This trip to Tancheng, you can go down without besieging it, it is better to drink together at night." ”

"Thank you Xuan Degong, I have quit drinking a long time ago," Zhang Han arched his hand and politely refused.

That night, Zhang Han had a hangover, and talked with Xi Zhicai and Chen Deng, claiming that even if he had learned all his life, he must build a foot-washing city.

Let the opera and Chen yearn for this building, can Zhang Han mention it so solemnly, is this a building similar to Feng Zen and Yang Gong?

A place that highlights the merits of a general's life!?

On the eve of the march, alcohol is forbidden.

On the sixth day, they arrived at the garrison in front of Tancheng, arranged a patrol, and drank and talked.

On the seventh day, the city was besieged, and the wine was cheerful.

On the morning of the eighth day, abstain from alcohol; In the evening, drink and talk merrily.

On the ninth day, Liu Bei and Cao Cao were so angry that they screamed at the same time.

It's coming, it's late, it's coming, and I'll get up early tomorrow to continue to change violently!
