Chapter 952: The Situation Changes
Zhao Feng pondered for a moment: "Zijing, you go to explore the wind first, I will come to meet Zhang Xiu's envoy later." ”
Lu Su waved at Zhao Feng: "Huh! ”
With that, he turned and exited the chamber.
It didn't take long.
Lu Su returned to the council hall and waved at Zhao Feng: "Enlighten the lord." ”
"It's clear that Zhang Xiu sent it for help!"
Zhao Feng was stunned for a moment: "Asking for help? ”
"I'm away from Nanyang County, and I'm still separated from the Sili area, how can I send troops to help?"
"It's impossible, in order to rescue Zhang Xiu, I have to fight with Yuan Shao first!"
Then he shook his head: "If it's this case, I'd better not see it." ”
"Go and tell the envoy, just say that when I attacked the Black Mountain Army at night before, I was infected with the wind cold, and I haven't been able to do it yet!"
Lu Su nodded: "Su also thinks that the lord should not go to see the envoy sent by Zhang Xiu for the time being. ”
"Retire!"
With that, he turned around and exited the chamber.
Lu Su wanted Zhao Feng to meet Zhang Xiu's envoy before, thinking that Zhang Xiu's side couldn't stand it, so he sent someone to discuss how to save Zhang Xiu to the land.
Now that I know Zhang Xiu's intentions, it is naturally better not to see it.
The reason why Zhao Feng didn't save him and would fight with Yuan Shao was just one reason.
Another reason is that Zhang Xiu is still reluctant to take the throne of King Han.
If Zhang Xiu had been thinking about the throne of King Han, even if Zhao Feng finally took Zhang Xiu to the north of the Yellow River, he would only be the second Liu He in the future.
This kind of self-seeking trouble, Zhao Feng doesn't want to do it anymore.
Time passed slowly, and a month passed in the blink of an eye.
In this month, Gongsun Zhan fought in Youzhou, and the troops not only did not fight less and less, but fought more and more.
Judging by the situation, there are indeed signs of a resurgence.
After Qingzhou Zhang Yan returned to the aid of more than 100,000 troops, he initially had the advantage.
However, in terms of top generals, Zhang Yan has always been at a disadvantage, so as time went by, Zhang Yan slowly became at a disadvantage.
Because of Lu Bu's call, Zhang Yan didn't dare to fight at all now.
If you don't fight, it will lead to a big drop in the morale of the army, and if you fight, the generals who will be cut off by Lu Bu will still have a big drop in morale.
this day.
Lu Su walked into the conference hall and waved at Zhao Feng: "Enlighten the lord!" ”
"Zhang Yan's envoy and Zhang Xiu's envoy have already left Nanpi."
Zhao Feng was surprised: "It stands to reason that after a month, Zhang Yan and Zhang Xiu should have new instructions." ”
"And now there is no new order, but the messenger is to leave Nanpi."
"It seems that the situation has changed again!"
Lu Su nodded: "Su also thinks that the situation should have changed." ”
"It's just that Su doesn't know what the current situation has become."
Then.
A guard ran into the conference hall and bowed his hand to Zhao Feng: "Lord Qi!" ”
"A messenger outside the mansion who claimed to be Lu Bu, the king of Qi, sent to deliver the letter."
After speaking, he put the secret document in his hand and presented it with both hands: "This is the messenger handed over to his subordinates." ”
Xiong Da walked up to the guard, took the secret document and handed it to Zhao Feng.
After Zhao Feng opened the secret letter, he carefully checked it, then put down the secret letter and looked at Lu Su: "Zijing, I can understand what the situation is now." ”
"Lu Bu sent a secret letter, saying that Liu Bei led more than 20,000 troops to relieve Zhang Yan!"
Lu Bu asked Liu Bei to be stationed in Pei County, so he would naturally send people to watch Liu Bei's every move.
Lu Su nodded: "It turns out that Zhang Yan saw that the lord was here, and he would not get any results, so he directly took refuge in Cao Cao!" ”
As soon as Liu Bei's side acted, Lu Bu got the news, and then sent someone to deliver a letter to Zhao Feng.
And just now, after Zhang Yan got the news of Liu Bei's troops, he immediately asked the envoy from Zhao Feng's side to return.
So in terms of timing, it will be more coincidental.
Zhao Feng said with emotion: "It seems that Cao Cao's previous goal of wantonly promoting the kings has been achieved. ”
"This move has indeed helped Cao Cao win over a group of people who have surrendered!"
"It's a pity, after Cao Cao frees up his hand, they won't get any good end."
Lu Su waved at Zhao Feng: "In this way, does it mean that Zhang Xiu also surrendered to Cao Cao?" ”
Zhao Feng pondered for a moment: "The possibility of Zijing saying is indeed very great. ”
"It has been a month since Zhang Xiu sent an envoy to come."
"With Zhang Xiu's ability, it's almost at the limit!"
Zhao Feng knew that according to the official history, Jia Xu's purpose was to ask Zhang Xiu to prove his worth, and then after he took refuge in Cao Cao, he would be reused.
In the official history, Zhang Xiu killed Cao Cao's eldest son Cao Ang, the general Dian Wei, and finally took refuge in Cao Cao.
Now because Zhao Feng did not send troops to Xudu, Cao Cao did not need to withdraw his troops, and Zhang Xiu had no chance to kill Cao Cao's eldest son Cao Ang, as for Dian Wei, he also had nothing to do with Cao Cao.
Therefore, the probability of Zhang Xiu taking refuge in Cao Cao is indeed quite large.
I don't know if the current Cao Cao wants to accept Zhang Xiu's mother, Zhang Ji's widow Mrs. Zou, as a concubine.
Zhao Feng pondered whether to secretly help Zhang Xiu.
Otherwise, even if Cao Cao accepted Mrs. Zou as a concubine, Zhang Xiu would not have a chance to do it.
And this kind of thing, because it involves Zhao Feng's reflection of the future generations, Zhao Feng doesn't know how to talk to Lu Su.
So the conversation changed: "But this is all just our speculation. ”
"Maybe Zhang Xiu hasn't surrendered yet!"
Lu Su gave Zhao Feng a look: "Even if Zhang Xiu has not surrendered at present, Zhang Xiu has withdrawn the envoy, and his intention is obvious." ”
"It is estimated that in half a month at most, Zhang Xiu will surrender to Cao Cao."
Zhao Feng pondered for a moment: "Order Guan Hai, Dian Wei, Qu Ze, Man Zhong and others to assemble a large army and conduct a military exercise." ”
"In addition, the gossip is released, and it is said that our army is ready to assemble a large army, and we will go south to Xudu and rob the Son of Heaven!"
Lu Su was puzzled: "What is the intention of the lord?" ”
Zhao Feng pondered for a moment: "Buy more time for Zhang Xiu." ”
"Now Zhang Yan and Liu Bei have clearly taken refuge in Cao Cao."
"You can't look at Zhang Xiu, and take refuge in Cao Cao."
"As long as Zhang Xiu sees some opportunities, even if he surrenders to Cao Cao now, won't he be able to rebel once."
"After all, Nanyang County is still in Zhang Xiu's hands!"
After hearing this, Lu Su was stunned for a moment: "With Cao Cao's ability, the lord doesn't even cross the river, so naturally he can't hide it from Cao Cao." ”
"If you want to be more realistic, let the army cross the river anyway!"
Zhao Feng nodded: "What Zijing said makes sense, it's not easy to fool Cao Cao." ”
"In that case, then change the goal of the exercise to quickly cross the river and seize the opposite port of Jin!"
"Let them remember that it's just a drill, don't really engage Cao Cao's army."
Lu Su bowed his hand to Zhao Feng: "Huh! ”
With that, he turned and exited the chamber.
