Chapter 704: There is a providence in the dark

Help!

In Su Zhe's mind, these three words suddenly burst out.

"Yes, it's a bitter meat trick, no wonder I always feel this recipe, this taste is so familiar......" Su Zhe suddenly realized.

Historically, Cao Cao captured Jingzhou, the army went south, and during the Battle of Chibi, Zhou Yu used this trick.

At that time, Zhou Yu and Huang Gai, the two directed and acted in a good show of Zhou Yu beating Huang Gai, so that Huang Gai confronted Zhou Yu in public, and then was scolded by Zhou Yu in public.

Subsequently, Huang Gai, who was scolded by the cane, sent people to Cao Ying to surrender on the grounds that he couldn't stand the humiliation, so that Cao Cao had no doubt and easily won Cao Cao's trust.

Then, when Huang Gai led a fireboat full of firewood and grass to Cao Ying, Cao Cao believed it to be true, so he did not send a warship to block it, so that Huang Gai smoothly approached Cao's water camp, set fire to the wind, and unexpectedly rushed the fireboat into Cao Ying, and finally burned Cao Ying, winning the Battle of Chibi.

is also scolded by the cane, the same humiliated and resentful, and the same said that he wants to surrender, no wonder Su Zhe will feel that the surrender of Liu Du and his son will look so familiar.

So now the question arises, does Liu Du and his son really want to surrender, or are they trying to make a bitter trick and want to surrender?

"It's not easy for you to come here, let's go down and rest first." Su Zhe didn't say anything, but just sent Liu Xian to rest first.

When he did this, he was naturally acting for Liu Xian.

With the wisdom of his head of the Nine Wonders, if he didn't have the slightest suspicion, he immediately believed what Liu Xian said, and accepted Liu Du's surrender on the spot, but Liu Du might be suspicious.

At the moment, he asked Liu Xian to rest first, and the implication was that he wanted to take the time to find out if Liu Xian was really scolded and humiliated by Shamoke in public.

After that, if he accepted Liu Du's surrender again, it would be logical and would not make Liu Du suspicious.

Liu Xian also expected that Su Zhe would do this, so he was obediently taken away by Su Zhe's own soldiers.

As soon as Liu Xian walked on the front foot, Su Zhe passed down the order on the back foot, ordering the fine work lurking in the barbarian army to find out whether Liu Du was scolded by the cane.

Two days later, Xizuo sent back the news, confirming what Liu Xian said, that Nashamoke was really angry in the military discussion that day, and scolded Liu Du in public, making him humiliated.

Thousands of barbarian soldiers witnessed that cane reprimand, and soon it spread among the Wuxi barbarian army, and everyone knew about it.

Only then did Su Zhe summon Pang Tong and Jia Xu, and told him about Liu Du's surrender and asked them what they thought.

"Lao Yu is not familiar with Jing Nan, and he doesn't know much about Liu Du, judging from the fact that Liu Du was scolded by the cane, he does have enough reasons to surrender, but this may be a bitter trick and it is not impossible."

Jia Xu is worthy of being a poisonous scorpion, even if he doesn't have a plug-in with historical memory in his head like Su Zhe, he can still say the "bitter meat plan" effortlessly.

"Tong'er, you are also from Jingzhou, what do you think of Liu Du, is his surrender credible?" Su Zhe looked at Pang Tong.

Pang Tong said lightly: "My understanding of Liu Du is similar to what you know about King Wei on the surface, it is nothing more than that this person was unwilling to surrender, was defeated by Gan Ning, and fled into the mountains with his subordinates, and has been hiding here, but ......"

The words changed, "However, I have something to tell King Wei about this Liu Xian." ”

"Liu Xian?" Su Zhe became curious.

Pang Tong said unhurriedly: "This Liu Xian was originally born to Liu Du's concubine, but he was born as a concubine, and later after Liu Du's wife died of illness, he made his mother his wife, and Liu Xian's concubine also became a concubine. ”

"Later, when Gan Ning broke through Lingling City, although Liu Du's father and son fled, Liu Xian's mother died in the chaos."

"Then Liu Du may not have much affection for Liu Xian's mother, but Liu Xian died his own mother, how can he not have hatred, King Wei, you are equivalent to killing his mother's enemy to him, such a person, will he really be willing to submit to King Wei?"

When Su Zhe heard this, his face was full of surprise, "I didn't expect this kind of thing, this king is very strange, it stands to reason that this Liu Xian is also a small person, how can you know so many secret things about him, Tong'er?" ”

Pang Tong said with a smile: "Coincidentally, when my father was sick, I went to Jingnan to find the divine doctor Zhang Zhongjing, and I happened to go to Lingling City, that Zhang Shenyi had some friendship with Liu Du, so he inadvertently mentioned this matter to me, I just heard it at the time, but I didn't expect that after so many years, it would be used." ”

At this moment, Su Zhe also felt a little incredible, as if there was a providence in the dark that was blessing him, and it was really unbelievable that two things that were originally unrelated could be miraculously connected in such a way.

Providence or coincidence, everything proves one thing:

Liu Du's surrender was mostly a bitter trick and wanted to deceive him.

"I want to play bitter meat tricks with this king, right, very good, then this king will play with you enough!"

Su Zhe sneered, and immediately ordered to pass that Liu Xian.

A moment later, Liu Xian stepped into the big tent.

As soon as he entered the big tent, before he had time to greet and salute, Su Zhe smiled and said, "Come on, quickly show Liu Gongzi a seat and drink." ”

The soldiers on the left and right were busy moving the futon, invited Liu Xian to a seat, and served fine wine.

Liu Xian looked flattered.

"Liu Gongzi, this king has learned about the humiliation suffered by Ling Zun, that Shamoke is really no one in his eyes, don't worry, your father's shame, this king will use Shamoke's head to wash the snow for him!"

Su Zhe's words showed that he believed in Liu Du's intention to surrender.

Liu Xian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and was busy with a grateful face, so he bowed his head and said: "Thank you King Wei, my father and son will definitely make meritorious contributions, for the Great Wei, for the King of Wei to go to the soup and fire, and never give up!" ”

"Okay, good, good, if your father and son can cooperate with the outside and help this king destroy Namoko, he will be the first person to be the hero of this king's suppression of the Jingnan rebellion, and this king will re-crown your father as Lingling Taishou!"

Liu Xian's acting is sincere, of course, Su Zhe must also play the opponent's play well, and give the opponent enough respect.

Next, Su Zhe entertained Liu Xian with good wine and meat, and carefully finalized the specific details of the internal and external cooperation.

It wasn't until after dark that Su Zhe wrote a handwritten letter, promising Liu Du an official position, and ordering Liu Xian to return to the enemy camp with his letter.

In order to show his attention to the Liu family's father and son, Su Zhe personally sent him out of the back camp at night.

Liu Xian faced Su Zhe and said: "King Wei, rest assured, my father and son will definitely respond to King Wei as promised, and King Wei must also launch an attack as promised." ”

Su Zhe also said with a straight face: "Don't worry, this king's army will definitely come as promised." ”

After the two sides made some promises to each other, Liu Xianfang rode away and disappeared into the night.

After Liu Xian walked away, Su Zhe and Pang Tong glanced at each other, and a mysterious sneer flashed in their eyes.
