Chapter 469 Two-way Envoy


Chapter 469 Two Envoys

Now, the most cutting-edge transit base is still set up in Shaxian and Xiakou, but these two places are nearly a thousand miles away from the real frontier positions, whether in terms of material allocation or From the perspective of military information transmission, it is really not suitable.

The atmosphere in the camp was solemn. Lu Xun frowned slightly. After thinking for a while, he suggested, "Why would you like to call out a brigade supervisor from the Defeng Army and strengthen it to the foot of the Zhengguo City? In this way, , the deployment of troops under the city of Zhengguo was strengthened, and the siege could progress faster."

When Liu Feng heard this, he did not answer immediately, but narrowed his eyes slightly and fell into deep thought. He repeatedly weighed the pros and cons in his mind. After thinking for a while, he slowly shook his head and rejected: "There is no need. The army of Destroyed will not move. First, draw a battalion of troops from Yicheng and Guiguo each to strengthen the supply of the country. Just under the capital. Who is responsible for the Zheng Kingdom now?"

Lu Xun responded quickly and immediately replied: "It's Zhou Ting who is really responsible."

Zhou Bin, whose courtesy name is Tingshi, was born in the Yangxian Dahao family. He is loyal, brave and fearless in combat, and has a lot of military strategy. He fought in Liu Feng's army and made great achievements repeatedly. He has long entered Liu Feng's vision. Now he has become a middle- and senior general in the Yangzhou army. He is now in Jia Kui's army. He served as the supervisor of the first brigade.

"So it's Tingshi."

Liu Feng nodded. He knew Zhou Bin's ability very well, without doubt: "Tell him, I hope he will last for seven days. Inside, I can take over the Zhengguo City, and what I want is a complete Zhengguo City. The people and facilities in the city should not be seriously damaged. "

"Here!"

Lu Xun immediately Receive the order, the voice is loud and a bit determined.

**

Just as Liu Feng was making military adjustments in an orderly manner, the military situation on Liu Biao was ignited and the situation was extremely urgent. It took Deng Yi only three days to rush from Xiangyang to Shang County like lightning.

This road was so fast that it was all thanks to the blessing of the waterway. There was Danshui between Xiangyang and the mall. It was the flood season again. The waterway was unobstructed, so even if you didn't have to worry about the sealing of boating at night, you didn't have to worry about the searing of the boat at night. Or hit a reef.

This journey is seven or eight hundred miles away. If you take the land route, even if you travel day and night, you may not be able to change horses so astonishingly, let alone the late Eastern Han Dynasty. The station system has long collapsed.

When Deng Yi's ship arrived at the mall, Zhang Ji was still in the back house, accompanying Mrs. Zou to talk leisurely.

Suddenly hearing that the envoy from Jingzhou and the people had already arrived outside the city, Zhang Ji was shocked and the teacup in his hand almost fell off. "Husband, when you come to Jingzhou, something big will happen."

Zou is gentle and elegant by nature, and is very beautiful and charming, and he is quite conscious of the general. At this time, she whispered to Zhang Ji, her voice soft but calm: "Why don't you call Mr. Jia to discuss details about the matter? Mr. Jia is resourceful and will definitely be able to give advice for his husband."

Zhang Ji slapped his forehead, suddenly realized, and said happily, "What the wife said is very much, I was negligent."

After he finished speaking, he was about to leave in a hurry, but after two steps, he seemed to be like I remembered something important, turned to Zou, and said with a little apology on my face: "Japan has agreed to accompany you now, but in this way, I will feel wronged again."


But Zou smiled gently, shook his head gently, and said softly, "Husband, the most important thing is to do. Don't let me go because of my mistakes, don't worry." Zhang Ji felt warm in his heart. , moved, nodded, turned around and went out.

As soon as he went out, Zhang Ji seemed to have changed his face. Although his chubby face still looked a little funny, the coldness and sharpness in his eyes revealed his true character. The ruthlessness that has been tempered by fighting on the battlefield all year round. "Come, go and invite Mr. Jia and Youwei to come to the main hall to discuss matters."

His voice was low and powerful, with unquestionable majesty.

Mr. Jia naturally came to Zhang Ji. Jia Xu, who is known as "harm the sky and not the literature and harmony", was named Jia Xu, and Jia Wenhe, while Youwei was the name of Zhang Ji's nephew Zhang Xiu.

Jia Xu and Zhang Ji are Zhang Xiu's right-hand man and the confidant he attaches most importance to.

Soon, the three of them met in the main hall.

Zhang Ji looked solemn and informed the two of them about the news of the envoy from Jingzhou, and received completely different reactions.

When Zhang Xiu heard this, he immediately showed joy, his face filled with pride, and said proudly: "Uncle, it seems that the thieves in Jingzhou know the power of our army. Do you know that we will wait for the autumn harvest to be done? The troops left Wuguan, come in advance to ask us to stop the troops, aren't they? They must have been afraid, so they sent envoys to ask for peace. You can't agree to them easily."

It was completely different from Zhang Xiu's joy, but Jia Xu was trapped in deep thought. He frowned and his eyes were deep, as if he was looking at the mystery hidden behind this news.

Zhang Ji glanced at his nephew, then slowly fell on Jia Xu, but he saw that the other party was in deep thought, but he did not dare to interrupt easily.

In the entire Xiliang martial arts group, Zhang Ji was not the most brave. When he charged in battle, his military power was not as good as those fierce generals; he was not the most good at fighting, and when he commanded his war, his military talent was slightly inferior. A good deal; he is not the smartest person in dealing with people and things. In terms of wisdom, he is inferior to others.

In terms of kindness and righteousness, he is not as good as Duan Wei, who is generous and very popular; in terms of using troops to fight, he is not as good as Fan Chou, who is excellent in strategy and command ability on the battlefield; in terms of bravery and fierceness, he is not as good as Fan Chou. , he is not as good as Li Jue and Guo Si. Li Jue and Guo Si are all powerful generals on the battlefield, extremely brave and even able to fight against Lu Bu alone.

But one thing is that Zhang Ji is the best player.

That is, his trust and reuse of Jia Xu has reached an extremely high level.

This is also why Jia Xu left Li Jue and Guo Si and refused to join him, but chose Zhang Ji.

In Zhang Ji's heart, Jia Xu is his think tank and an important reliance on his foothold in troubled times. So when Jia Xu was thinking about things, he would not disturb the other party, for fear of interrupting him. ideas.

"Jingnan has changed!"

After a moment, Jia Xu finally raised his head and met Zhang Ji's gaze that was looking at him tightly, and said with a very affirmative tone, "Jingzhou The army may lose in Jingnan."

"Oh!?"

Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu's uncle and nephew suddenly became interested, their eyes were full of curiosity, and they asked in unison: "Where did sir know?"

"No, right ."

Jia Xu had no time to answer the questions of Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu, but suddenly shook his head and answered the question irrelevantly, "I'm afraid it's not just a failure, but there may be even more amazing changes behind it." Zhang Xiu I was impatient and was already full of doubts about Jia Xu's words. At this time, I could no longer hold back. I opened my mouth and wanted to ask, but suddenly I ate my uncle's stern glare. I could only swallow the words I said, "It's so big." My mouth could only be closed helplessly.

After a while, Jia Xu spoke again and bowed to Zhang Ji and said, "Congratulations to lord, congratulations to lord, envoy Jing must be giving gifts to lord!"

When Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu heard this, they were immediately overjoyed. In the eyes of both of them, Jia Xu was like a god and man, knowing astronomy and geography, and everything he said was perfect. Now Jia Xu congratulates Zhang Ji on getting rich, and Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu naturally believe in this, as if they have seen the generous gift in front of them.

"Oh!?"

Zhang Jixing said, his face full of anticipation, "Why did you say this? Can you solve my doubts? Let me understand this? The reason. "

Jia Xu answered seriously this time: "The Jing people and I have been fighting repeatedly on the front line of Rangcheng for two or three years. Our army is weak and the general has repeatedly tried to Li Jue and Guo Si were unable to seek help, and were at a disadvantage in this protracted war. This is an indisputable fact. Our troops and resources are limited, and it is difficult to compete with the Jingzhou army for a long time."

Although Jia Xu's words are straightforward and not very nice, they are a real fact. Even Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu nodded in agreement. They knew their army's situation and were under tremendous pressure in terms of military strength and materials.

In fact, if it weren't for the butterfly wings of Liu Feng, Zhang Ji would have died in Rangcheng last year.

It was just because of Liu Feng that Cao Cao was stationed in Luoyang with heavy troops, forcing Zhang Ji, Li Jue and Guo Si to join him to keep warm, and did not dare to go south easily, and just avoided the disaster. "Now, the envoy Jing suddenly came in a hurry, not because of the interests, so there is something to be done." Jia Xu concluded confidently, with a wise light in his eyes: "In my opinion, I thought it was a failure to fight Jingnan in Jingbei. But after careful consideration, if it were just like this, with Liu Jingsheng's pride, how could he bow his head so easily? Liu Biao was arrogant and never wanted to compromise easily. Now that the envoy is suddenly sent, there must be hidden information in it.”

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

Zhang Ji nodded slowly while listening to Jia Xu's analysis, secretly admired Jia Xu's insight. As Jia Xu said, since Liu Biao took over the real power of Jingzhou, he began to vigorously suppress the local gentry and powerful people, introduced the gentry and the Central Plains, and engaged in factional checks and balances.

These operations were very successful, and they did bring him many benefits and benefits, allowing him to gain a firm foothold in Jingzhou. But this also encouraged Liu Biao's arrogance. The two armies have been fighting for almost three years. When did Liu Biao take the initiative to talk to Zhang Ji?

Liu Biao has always regarded Zhang Ji as a disease and has always tried to solve the problem by force, rather than through negotiations.

"I'm afraid something big happens in Jingnan."

Jia Xu asserted, with a firm tone: "Ming Gong can send someone south to investigate quickly. I think this matter must be important, and such a major matter will not be difficult to investigate. As long as we investigate it carefully, we will definitely be able to find out the truth of the matter. "

Zhang Ji immediately expressed his opinion: "Sir, don't worry, I will arrange for people to go south now. I will select the most shrewd and capable scouts to let them find out the situation in Jingnan as soon as possible."

Respond Later, Zhang Ji turned around and asked, "Sir, what should I do about this Jing Envoy? Should I meet him immediately or let him dry it first?"

The old god Jia Xu said, "Don't worry, let them Retirement in the inn for several days, and it is not too late to wait for news from the south to discuss. We will first understand the situation and then decide how to deal with it, so that we can take the initiative."

Zhang Ji pondered for a moment and felt that Jia Xu had done so. Yan Jishi, nodded immediately to agree.

Deng Yi shoulders the important mission of Jingzhou, and along the way, he is racing against time. Although he only spent three days, he arrived at the mall without stopping and without paddling, looking forward to meeting Zhang Ji as soon as possible to complete his mission.

However, reality gave him a heavy blow. Shortly after arriving at the mall, he was quietly placed under house arrest by Zhang Ji.

Every day, he could only pace in the small space of the inn, looking at the sky outside the window, full of anxiety but no choice but to do anything, and he couldn't even see Zhang Ji's face.

Every day, the worries in his heart increased, and the situation in Jingzhou became more and more urgent, but he was trapped here, like a bird trapped in a cage, with nowhere to use it.

On the other hand, Fu Xun's itinerary was completely different on the way. He first walked along the Qingshui River and arrived at Chi County, northwest of Nanyang County, and then turned to the road.

This road is not an ordinary road. It is equivalent to the top expressway in later generations. It is wide and flat. The road surface is paved with solid bluestone. Even if a large group of people walk on it, it will be very smooth.

Although only one-third of the journey is water, and most of the remaining ones are land, fortunately, this road helps.

Fu Xun and his group rode high-headed horses, with wheels rolling, and dust rising all the way. They sleep in the open and travel day and night. Despite the fatigue of the journey, everyone knows the importance of this journey.

In this way, after a full half month, Fu Xun and his party finally arrived in Luoyang in a hurry.

It is completely different from Deng Yi's ups and downs along the way, Fu Xun was treated well with courtesy.

Henan Yin Xiahou Dun heard the news of Fu Xun's arrival and went out of the city to greet him.

Five miles from the city, Xiahou Dun was wearing an official uniform and upright posture, and had been waiting for a long time. There was a warm smile on his face and a warm look in his eyes.

When Fu Xun's team appeared in sight, Xiahou Dun immediately came forward.

Xiahou Dun's performance on the battlefield may not be particularly outstanding, but as a politician, he has excellent communication skills and keen political insight.

After meeting Fu Xun, Xiahou Dun spoke politely, and every sentence was just right, and his attitude was so friendly that it made people feel as if they were bathed in spring breeze. After a greeting, when he learned about Fu Xun's purpose, a trace of undetectable surprise flashed in his single eyes.

This subtle expression change was captured by Fu Xun, who was thoughtful.

Xiahou Dun immediately patted his chest and expressed his opinion that he would do his best to send the request from Fu Xun to Jingzhou to the emperor, the general and the ministers in the court. He knew the importance of this matter and understood that it had a profound impact on the relationship between Jingzhou and the court, so his tone was full of firmness and responsibility.

Fu Xun was overjoyed and bowed: "This matter is related to the survival of my Jingzhou, so I'll ask Lord Xiahou for everything."

Xiahou Dun immediately left the seat and stepped forward to help the other party up: "Please, Duke," Don’t worry, I will report this to the emperor and the court officials when I go to court in the future.”
