Chapter 208 Jia Xu wants to show his sincerity
Sun Ce defeated Liu Yao and swept across Jiangdong. Sun Jian was overjoyed with the news. Although a series of personnel appointments and dismissals in Jiangdong were not approved by Sun Jian, Sun Jian was very satisfied with Sun Ce's arrangements. However, Sun Jian was still a little unhappy about Zhou Yu. He was replying
The Chinese hinted at Sun Ce, and after Zhou Yu left, he sent troops to rob and kill him on the way! As for Sun Ce’s thoughts, we don’t know!
After taking control of Jiangdong, Sun Jian ordered Sun Ce to continue recruiting troops in Jiangdong. With the help of Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong, and Sun Ce's troops doing no harm to the people, the people of Jiangdong gradually surrendered to Sun Ce's command. For a time, Sun Ce's power increased greatly!
When Sun Ce's troops reached 50,000, Sun Jian ordered him to conquer Lujiang again. The defender of Lujiang was Lu Kang. This man was resourceful and absolutely handsome. Unfortunately, the old guy was too old, he was over seventy this year!
"Uncle, go and have a rest!" Lu Yi, the grandson of Lu Kang's brother, looked at Lu Kang with a worried face. Sun Ce continued to attack the city for fifteen days, and Lu Kang also stayed on top of the city for fifteen days. Although Lu Kang was not
Sleepless and restless, but after all, age is not forgiving.
"Grandson! I will be able to go down and rest soon! Don't worry!" Lu Kang looked at the teenage boy next to him with a smile on his face. He could see how smart his brother's grandson was.
"Uncle, I really don't understand. The Han Dynasty is already in chaos. Since Sun Ce wants Lujiang, you can just give it to him. Why hold on?" Lu Yi looked puzzled. In his opinion, Lu Kang was just looking for trouble.
"My grandson, that's not what you said!" Lu Kang said with a smile: "Although the Han Dynasty is in chaos, I am the Lujiang prefect of the Han Dynasty. Since I am still here, how can I give up the territory of the Han Dynasty to others?"
"But the big man is already dead in name only!" Lu Yi is still young, how can he understand the loyalty in Lu Kang's heart?
"As long as there is one person loyal to the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty will not perish!" Looking at Sun Ce's army attacking the city, Lu Kang stroked Lu Yi's head with one hand.
"Oh!" Lu Yi nodded as if he understood. Lu Kang knew that he didn't understand, but he didn't care.
"Grandson, please go back quickly!" Any family will try its best to preserve geniuses. Lu Kang asked Lu Yi to come to Lujiang to study. Unexpectedly, he met Sun Ce attacking the city. If such a genius grandson is,
Lu Kangke was ashamed of his ancestors when he died in the war before he grew up.
"Uncle, I still want to accompany you!" Lu Yi stood next to Lu Kang with no intention of leaving.
You know, Lu Yi has been an orphan since he was a child, and only his uncle, Lu Kang, loves him the most. Now that the enemy is facing the enemy, Lu Kang is seventy years old and guarding the city day and night. Lu Yi is really worried!
"Go back!" Lu Kang was a little angry!
"I...got it..." Although Lu Yi and Lu Kang are very close, Lu Kang is serious and resolute, so every time Lu Kang is angry, Lu Yi is very afraid. Of course, given Lu Kang's age, even if Lu Yi
Even if you are not afraid, you have to pretend to be afraid, so as not to make this old uncle angry.
After driving away Lu Yi, Lu Kang couldn't help but smile when he looked at Sun Ce's army gathered below the city. For the past fifteen days, Sun Ce led his troops to attack day and night. When Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai were both injured, Sun Ce
The army did not even reach the top of Lujiang City. As the Lujiang guard, Lu Kang naturally had his pride and pride.
At the foot of Lujiang City, Sun Ce couldn't help but grit his teeth as he looked at the old figure at the top of the city. He had never wanted to kill someone so much in his life, but he had to admire this person. It was this person who blocked his invincible army.
.
"Gong Jin, is there really no way?" Sun Ce has asked this more than once. If a strong attack is not possible, it is natural to use tactics, but Lu Kang himself is a man of great resourcefulness. Zhou Yu has various strategies, but Lu Kang does not respond.
Ever changing.
"Alas!" Zhou Yu shook his head rather bitterly. He really didn't expect that Lu Kang was so powerful. At first, Zhou Yu was still a little proud, but now he finally understood what it meant to have someone outside the world.
In fact, if there was no conflict between Sun Jian and Lu Kang, he would not have sent Sun Ce to attack Lujiang. After all, Lujiang is the intersection of Jiangdong and Yuan Shu's forces and a buffer zone. Of course, Sun Jian did not expect that a seventy-year-old man could actually
Such ability.
The war in Lujiang continued to be a stalemate. In desperation, Sun Ce had no choice but to let Zhou Yu continue to surround Lujiang, while he led his troops to stabilize Jiangdong.
Just when Jiangdong and Youzhou were fighting fiercely, Yangping Pass had a calm before the storm. Of course, it remains to be seen whether this storm will affect Yangping Pass.
Ever since Guo Si was defeated by Liu Zhang, he had been hiding within the jurisdiction of Chang'an. Originally, Liu Zhang was planning to send troops directly to conquer Chang'an, but he was worried that Zhang Jijun, who was moving towards Yangping Pass, would cut off his retreat. Just when Liu Zhang couldn't bear it any longer, he prepared to send troops.
When attacking Zhang Ji, several people came to Yangping Pass.
"Stop, what are you doing?" In front of the Yangping Pass, there were all Liu Zhang's soldiers and soldiers. Before Jia Xu and the others reached the pass, a junior high school officer came forward to investigate.
"An old friend wants to meet the champion!" Jia Xu smiled, but his temperament made the school dare not neglect him.
"This...since he is the Lord's old friend, what proof do you have?" The principal was very embarrassed. Liu Zhang was the governor of a state after all, so he couldn't just ask for an audience without any proof!
"As long as you tell the champion, under the Hulao Pass, hundreds of birds will pay attention to the phoenix. I believe he will understand!" Zhang Xiu looked at the small school, and the small school felt a little pressure on him. However, Jia Xu and Zhang Xiu's demeanor were both different.
Unlike ordinary people, the small school still ran to report it.
After hearing the announcement from the primary school, Liu Zhang immediately knew who was coming. Under Hulao Pass, the only person who had fought with him using Bainiao Chaofeng was Zhang Xiu. Since the second senior brother had arrived, Liu Zhang called Zhao Yun and personally
Go out to greet.
"I've seen the champion!" Seeing Liu Zhang coming to greet him in person, everyone quickly saluted.
"Senior brother, there is no need to be polite! Although we are in a hostile environment, I never want to be an enemy of senior brother!" Liu Zhang waved his hand and said: "Senior brother, please come within the pass!"
Following Liu Zhang, Zhang Xiu and others, they came to the meeting hall in Yangping Pass. After the guests and hosts sat down, Liu Zhang smiled and asked: "Brother, we are about to fight. Are you not afraid of being detained by me when you come to my place?"
"How could the champion Hou Yi and Bo Yuntian do such a despicable thing?" Jia Xu was smiling, but his narrowed eyes made Liu Zhang feel cold.
"May I ask, sir?" Liu Zhang stared at Jia Xu, as if he wanted to see through him.
"Jia Xu, Jia Wenhe!" Jia Xu didn't care at all about Liu Zhang's aggressive gaze.
"Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe?" Liu Zhang asked in shock: "But Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe of Wuwei Guzang?"
"Huh?" Jia Xu was stunned for a moment and asked, "Do you know me, General?"
"I don't know him, but I've heard of him! I'm very honored to meet Mr. Jia today!" Liu Zhang stood up and saluted Jia Xu. Jia Xu was stunned for a moment, then stood up and returned the salute.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Xiu smiled and asked: "The champion treats Mr. Jia like this, is he trying to poach his brother?"
Liu Zhang did not answer, but asked: "Senior brother, it must be Mr. Jia's intention to come here today!"
"Indeed!" Zhang Xiu smiled and asked, "Then do you know the purpose of my coming?"
After taking a deep look at Jia Xu, Liu Zhang smiled and said: "Senior brother, you must be here because of Li Jue. Guo Si is almost done and wants to find someone to take refuge with. Am I right?"
"This..." Zhang Xiu glanced at Jia Xu in surprise, but Jia Xu sat there motionless.
"Brother, don't be surprised!" Liu Zhang said with a smile: "I heard that there is a great talent in Wuwei Guzang named Jia Xu Wenhe. This man has a deep intellect, ruthless tactics, and is known as a poisonous person. However, what this man is best at is
, but to protect themselves! Now that Li Jue and Guo Si have angered me and killed my two brothers, I will not spare them. If my brothers still help them now, they will definitely turn against me. With my power,
Senior brother has no hope of victory. Instead of being defeated and captured, it is better to provide help in times of need. Am I right?"
"It seems that my decision is right!" Jia Xu smiled slightly, with such strong self-confidence that Liu Zhang couldn't help but feel sad.
"I wonder what you are going to do, sir?" If Zhang Ji could really surrender, Liu Zhang would not only lose a major enemy, but also avoid fighting Zhang Xiu, his senior brother, and even gain a general and a counselor!
"Won't the champion ask about our conditions?" Jia Xu said with a smile: "Or, as long as we surrender, the champion will accept all conditions?"
"Mr. Jia is a smart man. I believe that the conditions you propose must be acceptable to me! Of course, if I were you, I would never make any conditions!" For a counselor who can see through people's hearts, Liu Zhang would not go around with him.
, so as not to fall into his ways.
Zhang Xiu asked with a puzzled face: "Why don't you put forward conditions? You know, we are bringing an army of 100,000 to join us!"
Liu Zhang smiled and said: "There are indeed a lot of troops with one hundred thousand troops, but to me, it doesn't matter whether there are these one hundred thousand people. The only people I value are Mr. Jia and my senior brother. Under my command, Mr. Jia must be a trusted advisor, and so is my senior brother."
General in charge of the army. Your request is only to retain part of the military power to ensure your own safety, but you can't retain the 100,000 troops under your command! Aren't you afraid that I have ideas?"
"This..." Before coming here, Zhang Xiu had indeed thought about retaining some of his military power. But now that Liu Zhang said this, he felt a little petty.
"General Zhang!" Just when Zhang Xiu was a little embarrassed, Jia Xu said with a smile: "Actually, I came to Champion Hou not to discuss anything with him, but to show our sincerity! Do you think, with Champion Hou's strength?
, will they allow the existence of a state within a state?”
"This..." Zhang Xiu was stunned. Not to mention being as powerful as Liu Zhang, no prince would allow a state within a state to exist. When a state within a state exists, most of the time the princes are incompetent and unable to suppress their generals.
.With Liu Zhang's character, if his generals become too powerful to lose, there will only be one outcome, and that is to be wiped out.
