Wancheng intended to surrender, which was really unexpected by Qin Xu.

After all, although the forces of Lü Bujun had opened up the situation in Jingzhou by chance, the influence was because Cai Mao betrayed Liu Biao and took refuge in Cao Cao with Nanjun, Nanyang County, and Jiangxia County as the capital for promotion, so that the control range of Lü Bujun's forces, which was insufficient at that time, was separated by Dajiang and was only limited to the four counties of Jingnan in half of Jingzhou. Except for one Jiangling City, which is in danger of fighting, it can barely be connected with Wancheng by a branch of a large river, but it is also separated by a Xinye City that was heavily armed by Cao Cao. With a naval army general like Cai Mao, it is by no means easy to open up this passage smoothly.

What's more, whether it is Qin Xu or Lu Bu, or Lu Bu's army and the civil and military, in fact, they have already reached a consensus, in Hebei, Liu Yan's father and son in the west plus an exiled Liu Biao, presumably they will not hope that Lu Bu's army will go to war with the powerful Cao Cao too soon, so that if the three sides face the enemy, it is not a very good idea for the Lu Bu army, which is now across Qing, Xu, Yang, and Jing.

In this way, Wancheng's move needs to be carefully planned. If you don't covet the Xiliang Iron Cavalry of at least 30,000, it is definitely duplicitous, but the geographical location of Wancheng is too special. Lying between the three states of Jing, Yan and Yong, there is the advantage of martial arts, which can be said to be in the center of Cao Cao's power, and a nail has been nailed. According to Cao Cao's temperament, how can others be allowed to snore on the side of the couch? It's hard to say that it's just because of the same concerns as Lu Bujun, and they are also worried that they will be copied by Lu Bu, Liu Biao, Ma Teng, Han Sui and others. only to "let Wancheng go" so free for three years. Now that half of Jingzhou has started, Wancheng has formed a situation of encirclement in the actual sense, and if you don't do it, you don't do it. It's not his boss Cao's style.

This is also the reason why even Jia Xu, who is extremely wise in the world, has to scratch his head. Qin Xu and Jia Xu both understand that this situation is not easy to break! For the sake of 30,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry and the same control of the annex, Yan, Henan, Yong and Yangzhou County, the Cao Cao forces in Jingzhou are not very cost-effective, and even if they finally win with the strong combat power of Lu Bu's army, it will inevitably be a heavy loss, and who will be happy to the end. But maybe it won't be. The trade-off in the middle, no wonder Jia Xu said that it depends on Lu Bu's attitude. And Qin Xu's joke answer was also in consideration of the worst outcome, and he pointed out the gang of people who dared to rob the Son of Heaven and the Ministers in the past. The strength is enough to affect the strength of the current power of the Xiliang people, and the credibility is really worrying. Don't end up with the strength of Lu Bu with all his strength, fight to the death with Cao Cao, and finally let others get the benefits of the fisherman. When the time comes, these people will see Lu Bujun's strength damaged. Turning to any of the surrounding forces is a catastrophe for Lu Bujun. If this is the case, it will really hit the overall situation laid out by Cao Cao in Jia Xu's meaning!

"You can't fight, and you can't weaken the prestige of the lord, Wenhe, you said that if we do something in Hebei, will it attract Cao Cao's attention? Anyway, Wancheng is worried that there is no help on all sides. Sooner or later, the military resources and grain will be exhausted, and sooner or later they will be eaten clean by Cao Cao's sticky bones. But it should still last for a while. Let's use this time to do something in Hebei, and at the same time, let Ziyi also take the opportunity to find out if these people are really sincere. After all, it is to try to attract Cao Cao's attention in Hebei affairs, I believe that Hebei Sanzhou is always more important than a small Wancheng! Seeing that after Jia Xu finished saying that it might be Cao Cao's other plans, he fell into a pensive look, Qin Xu scratched his head and said with a wry smile.

"No, the lord is too worried! If that Cao someone really made up his mind to take Wancheng, a thorn in his heart, in the case of holding the 20,000 Bingzhou cavalry that took Yuan Tan in Bingzhou to deter Hebei, Wancheng was afraid that in his eyes it was just a disease of scabies! Jia Xu seemed to suddenly think of something, suddenly frowned, and said with some hesitation: "Perhaps, Xu understands Cao Agui's intentions." ”

"What?" Qin Xu hurriedly asked.

"This is a near-miscalculation. Thanks to the words of the lord just now, it gave Xu some ideas. Jia Xu chuckled and said, "Our speculations are all based on the contents of this letter, and they are inferences made when Cao Cao knows about it. But if it is...... Cao Cao didn't know that the Xiliang soldiers, who had the enmity of seizing the city and the humiliation of the defeated army, would choose to surrender our army? ”

Wen He said...... Cao Cao's several plans with deep intentions, in fact, on the other hand, are more like what we were worried about before? Qin Xu patted his head, and Jia Xu's words were like a basin of cold water poured down from his head, but it made Qin someone sober and said: "That is to say, maybe Cao Cao also took a fancy to these 30,000 Xiliang iron horses, whether it was his intention to force him to surrender or to take Wancheng by force, what he had to guard against was also worried that someone would either copy the back road from behind, or because a small Wancheng fought with our army to the death, and was taken advantage of by others?" Yes, yes, compared to our army, Cao Cao, in addition to facing the chaos in Hebei and the counterattack of Liu Biaojun, like us, must also be on guard at any time that the Zhang sect leader in Hanzhong and the two Xiliang either covet the land of Jingzhou, or want to take advantage of the chaos to get a piece of the pie, and are more worried that we will directly copy his back road when he uses his troops! This is the only time so much information has been revealed, so that we can't understand his true intentions, neither dare to make any changes when he moves troops against Wancheng, nor will he go all out against Hebei, just wait for him to Wancheng, then I will wake up, maybe it's too late? ”

"What the lord said is very true!" Jia Xu showed a little smile on his face and said: "Actually, what is most worried about Wancheng changing prematurely is not me, but it should be Cao Cao." Oh, in fact, when I saw that Cao someone suddenly cast this divisive time, I should have thought of it a long time ago, capital crime and capital crime! A letter from here ordered the shadow to be sent to Wancheng, so that they must deal with Cao Cao, and they must not easily engage in battle to damage their strength, this is the most important thing, and other things such as what to descend and who not to surrender will be handed over to the lord, anyway, it is the same way, presumably General Lu will not be too embarrassed by the lord. ”

"Wen He ......" This sudden incident was a false alarm, and Qin Xu breathed a sigh of relief. As for Jia Xu, who likes to pick himself clean first in everything, Qin Xu is also speechless, and he has said his heart-to-heart words more than once, and from the way he does things, he can also see Jia Xu's hard work, but it is difficult to get the truth from this poisoner, and he can only smile bitterly.

Qin Xu's mansion. Last time, in order to ask for a marriage for the two girls of the Qin family, Cao Cao came to show his "sincerity", and Cao Ang, the eldest son who had a "friendship with Cai Yan". once made Qin Xu Haosheng admire the atmosphere and open-mindedness of this hero with special hobbies. And this time, I thought that I would be able to meet the eldest son of the Cao family who felt very different from Cao Cao and really didn't make people feel bad, but I didn't expect that although he came this time was also an "acquaintance", compared to Cao Ang's identity, it also made Qin Xu confirm Cao Cao's intentions guessed under Jia Xu's "inducement" from another aspect.

Zhang Miao! Previously, because of Lü Bu's successful entry into Qingzhou, Cao Cao's attention was on Lü Bu in the east and Chang'an in the west. Therefore, although it is still because Zhang Miao is quite close to Yanzhou celebrities and has a good personal relationship with Lu Bu, and the original friendship with Cao Cao is getting weaker and weaker, it is also because of the lack of this opportunity, and it has not yet reached the opposite goal. Cao Cao is used to being a person who misses the old feelings, although he is increasingly different from Zhang Miao's concept, but he also remembers the kindness of Zhang Miao in the past.

"What are you doing stupidly, kid? There are no rules, I haven't seen you Uncle Meng Zhuo! In the past, Meng Zhuo, Uncle Zhi and your father were also familiar with each other! This time, I came to congratulate him on the joy of his grandson, don't be rude! Qin Xu had just returned to the mansion, and when he saw that the messenger sent by Cao Cao turned out to be Zhang Miao and had some enlightenment, Lu Bu shook off a displeased look and snorted. Since having Lu Chen, Lu Bu's family is like Cai Yong at the beginning, as if they want to take root in the Qin Mansion, and Lu Bu is even more in addition to official business all day long, in the name of helping Mrs. Yan take care of Lu Lingqi's confinement, he is tired of being in the Qin Mansion, and he holds Lu Chen like a baby when he sees Lu Chen's lunch, and he doesn't know how many eyes he has received from the three ladies for no reason. God knows how this world's number one fierce general learned to serve the confinement child. However, the left and right are only separated by a street, and the side doors of the two houses are even opposite, so it is convenient to go back and forth, Boss Lu is Qin Xu's father-in-law and son, and he is still the top boss, even if Qin Xu occasionally slanders, he can only let it go.

"No! Qin Xu has seen Uncle Meng Zhuo! For no reason, he was scolded by Lu Bu with his head and face, and Qin Xu could only let it go, and scolded his father-in-law Lao Tzu in history, but he didn't speak so badly to the former Chen Liutai in front of him, and he greeted Zhang Miao in a decent manner and stood aside.

"Qin Envoy Jun has tormented Zhang!" Zhang Miao had a peaceful temper, and did not accept Qin Xu's full courtesy, he avoided half of his body with a smile, and was about to return a half-salute, but saw Lu Bu holding Lu Chen and whispering a few words in Zhang Miao's ear, Zhang Miao's face immediately became a little excited, and he turned sideways and stared at Qin Xu for a long time, making Qin Xu can't help but sigh that the father he has never met in this body has a wide range of friends......
