At night, after having had enough wine and food, Li Xiang reluctantly led Xing Tian and Jia Xu back to his camp.
As soon as he entered the big tent, Li Xiang looked up to the sky and burst out laughing.
This burst of laughter made Xing Tian confused for a while, but he was a fool at first. He rubbed his head to himself, and then he couldn't figure it out and didn't want to think any more.
After laughing for a while, Li Xiang regained his composure. Regardless of Jia Xu's reaction, he immediately stepped forward to win over Jia Xu and said, "With Mr. Wen He's help, I will have no worries in the future."
Indeed, when people mention Jia Wenhe, the first thing they think of is his machinations and viciousness. The Three Kingdoms is an era when counselors emerge in large numbers, and there are definitely a lot of counselors with intelligence above 90. But there are so many.
Among the counselors, there may be some who are stronger than Jia Xu in terms of comprehensive strength, but in terms of conspiracy and viciousness, I am afraid no one can match him. In this regard, perhaps only Li Ru, who also belongs to Dong Zhuo's army, can barely compare with him.
.
Jia Xu was a Machiavellian in the most typical sense during the Three Kingdoms era. Unlike Zhuge Liang, who held the post of prime minister and focused on governing the country, and unlike Zhou Yu who was appointed as a general and was good at leading troops in battles. Jia Xu had no intention of doing anything.
Becoming a warlord who supports his troops and dominates one side, his identity is always behind the scenes. He constantly emerges from behind the thick curtain of a certain general. On the surface, he is offering advice, but he often has the effect of strategizing.
In Li Xiang's view, Jia Wen and Zai could not be plotted against him by ordinary conspiracies, and the other party even had to worry about being plotted against him by conspiracies from his own side.
"General Li's words are serious. Xu is just a low-level official with little talent and knowledge. How can he help the general?" Jia Xu said expressionlessly.
Having said that, from the time I met Jia Xu until now, this person has always maintained this expressionless look, without showing any extra expression.
"Mr. Wenhe is too modest. Xiang may not know much about other things, but he is very knowledgeable about Mr. Jia's talents." Li Xiang said with a smile on his face.
Before Jia Xu could react, Li Xiang continued with a half-smile, "Mr. was not famous when he was young. Only Yan Zhong, a famous scholar from Xiliang at that time, thought that he was different and said that he was as talented as Zhang Liang and Chen Ping.
In his early years, Mr. Wen He was imprisoned as a man of filial piety. He resigned due to illness and returned to his hometown in the west to reach Qiandi. On the way, he met the rebellious Di people and were captured along with dozens of others. Mr. Wen He then lied and called himself Mr.
He is the grandson of Mr. Duan. As long as these traitors do not harm Mr., Mr.’s family will pay a large sum of money to redeem him. Mr. Wenhe, I wonder if Xiang’s words are correct?"
Hearing this, Jia Xu's unmoving face finally showed a little surprise. Although it was just fleeting, it was still noticed by Li Xiang, who had been staring at Jia Xu.
"Mr. Wenhe, now that the prelude to the troubled times has begun, Xiang wants to take advantage of this opportunity to achieve great things. I wonder if you, sir, are willing to help?"
Li Xiang, who had some understanding of Jia Xu's character, said straight to the point.
"General Li, Jia Xu knows how much he can do for himself. It's not that Jia Xu doesn't want to help the general, it's really that Jia Xu is unwilling and powerless." Jia Xu, for a moment, seemed to be a dramatist, and another scene appeared.
Grateful said again with an embarrassed look on his face.
Seeing this situation, Li Xiang sighed slightly, but still had to use the last resort. This old fox was really troublesome to deal with.
When Li Xiang thought of this, he immediately stopped hesitating and directly pulled out the Chixiao Sword tied to his waist, and without saying a word, he placed it on Jia Xu's neck.
"Xiang Sheng is working in parallel, and if he is not used by me, he will be killed by me. Xiang did not hear the answer clearly, sir. Please take the trouble to answer what Xiang just asked. I wonder if you, sir, are willing to help Xiang?"
Throughout the Three Kingdoms, among all the counselors, Jia Xu was probably the one who was most afraid of death. It can be said that Jia Xu took his own strategy to the extreme.
Jia Xu first came to prominence when he was serving under Li Jue. In order to protect himself, he suggested that Li Jue and others attack Chang'an and cause chaos. It can be said that his strategy was only focused on survival, with the survival of himself and the people around him as the basis.
The first point: For his own safety, Jia Xu didn't care that the strategies he used would cause the country to be eclipsed and the world to be in chaos.
Therefore, Li Xiang is confident that as long as he uses this last move, Jia Xu will obey and be used by Li Xiang.
As for the future, Li Xiang is not worried. As long as Jia Xu joins his staff, he will never leave him in this life. Li Xiang will never give him the slightest chance.
Sure enough, as soon as Li Xiang's sword touched Jia Xu's neck, Jia Xu's expression immediately changed and he immediately said, "See my lord, it's a great honor to be valued by my lord." After saying this, Jia Xu also said
He bowed to Li Xiang seriously.
"Hahaha, with the help of Mr. Wenhe, Xiang is really at home." Li Xiang said with a smile on his face.
Then, Li Xiang turned his head to Xingtian and said, "Xingtian, Mr. Jia will be the military advisor of our army in the future. You must respect Mr. Jia as much as you respect me. You will go first in the next few days."
Just protect Mr. Jia's safety. If anything happens to Mr. Jia, I will only ask you."
In his words, Li Xiang also emphasized the word protection slightly.
Moreover, Li Xiang seemed to care about Jia Xu inadvertently and said, "Wen He, please relax. Later I will immediately arrange escorts to pick up Wen He and his family to settle in Bingzhou. After this war, Wen He can go to Bingzhou to settle down with us."
There is no need to travel long distances to Wuwei to meet your family members. Your family will be much safer living in Bingzhou than in the desolate Liangzhou."
"Ding, congratulations to the host for gaining 10 summoning points from Jia Xu. The remaining summoning points are currently 421."
After Xingtian and Jia Xu left, and only Li Xiang was left in the tent, Li Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, finally taking care of Jia Xu.
To put it bluntly, this Jia Xu is also strange. Others have to persuade him kindly to generate summoning points. But this Jia Xu has to threaten him before he is willing to worship the Lord, and even generates summoning points.
In fact, Li Xiang is not worried about Jia Xu, an old fox, betraying him. Although Jia Xu has served under many people, perhaps this poisonous man has never been loyal to anyone at all, but what is rare is that Jia Xu has not been loyal to anyone at all.
He had harmed any of his lords. Li Xiang felt that Jia Xu could still be of great use.
Moreover, as long as Jia Xu doesn't threaten his life and gives him a sense of security, he doesn't mind doing some practical things and making some suggestions for you.
