Simulate the Three Kingdoms, kill Cao Mengde at the beginning

Chapter 144
Yuan Xi laughed loudly, and said loudly: "Then add two conditions, if Liu Bei dies or surrenders, you will work for me sincerely, how about it?"

Xu Shu suddenly raised his head, "The general has countless talented people, why do you value him so much?"

Yuan Xi smiled and said: "You, Xu Yuanzhi, have great talents. You should serve the country and seek the well-being of our people. Wouldn't it be a pity if you died here?"

Xu Shu's expression moved slightly, and suddenly he bowed deeply, turned around and left.

Yuan Xi didn't hold back either, but looked at Zhao Yun.

This was the first time he saw Zhao Yun. With just one glance, Yuan Xi was full of affection for the heroic and resolute Zhao Yun.

Patting Zhao Yun on the shoulder, Yuan Xi said softly: "Zilong escort the military division back. What I said to the military division is also valid for you. I hope that your general will serve the country and fight for the country, not for some personal gain. Spend your life."

"With your martial arts and ability, I believe that you will play a greater role under my subordinates. After all this is said, Zilong will go back and think about it. I hope that when we meet again, you Zhao Zilong will be willing to be a hero under my subordinates." General."

Zhao Yun walked out of Xiangyang City in a daze, only to wake up when the wind blew.

"Zi Long."

Xu Shu shouted in the distance.

"Military division." Zhao Yun hurried over.

"Zilong, did the general let you back?"

Zhao Yun nodded and said confusedly: "The general seems to know me, but I have a low reputation, how does the general know me?"

The two led the horses and walked side by side, "What does Zilong think of the general?"

Zhao Yun hesitated for a while, and said, "Master!"

Xu Shu said with a smile: "I heard that Yuan Xi was cruel before, but now it seems that what he said is not true. Otherwise, he would never let you and me go so easily."

Zhao Yun is now only serving as the commander of the guards under Liu Bei's account, and has not been used much.

Hearing this, he said: "It should be because you value the military division, and I should be escorting the military division along the way."

Xu Shu shook his head, looked at the big river in the distance, and said, "The general attaches great importance to me, but he let me back, which is enough to explain one thing."

"What's the matter?"

"confidence!"

Xu Shu murmured: "Incomparably confident, confident that I can win in any situation."

Thinking of Liu Bei's strength, Zhao Yun remained silent.

Jingzhou soon fell into Yuan Xi's hands, much faster than Yuan Xi thought.

Accepting Jingzhou's nearly [-] sailors, Yuan Xi began to struggle with appointment.

An army of one hundred thousand is not a small number, and it is certain that the previous generals cannot be used.

But the problem is that Yuan Xi has no generals who are good at water warfare.

In terms of cultivation, for the time being, these water armies also need people to lead them.

Cai Mao?Zhang Yun?Wen Ping?Huang Zu?
These are all local aboriginal clans in Jingzhou. Yuan Xi knows how to use them, but he can't reuse them.

Yuan Xi didn't understand these generals.

Still let them stay in their original positions, and the control over Jingzhou has to be questioned.

Cheng Yu saw Yuan Xi's worry, and said with a smile, "It's not that my lord can't reuse these people."

Yuan Xi smiled and said, "What does Zhong De say?"

Cheng Yu smiled slightly, and said: "My lord is worried. It's because I don't know the root cause, and I don't know loyalty and traitors. It's better to try it out. Loyal people should use it."

"These people have surrendered to me now, how to test?"

"Let's talk about Cai Mao, he is a treacherous person with some ability. Now he must be loyal to the lord, but only because the lord is strong. If the lord is weak, he will betray him."

"I won't reuse Cai Mao." Yuan Xi didn't like Cai Mao very much.

"Let's talk about Huang Zu."

Cheng Yu said softly: "It's very simple to test this person, just transfer him. If you are dissatisfied, you can't reuse it."

Yuan Xi nodded, "Huang Zu is also considered capable. He has guarded Jiangxia for many years, and if he is transferred rashly at this time, I'm afraid it will be in the hands of Jiangdong's children."

Cheng Yu was taken aback, and said: "Jiangdong's power is weak, how dare he resist the Heavenly Army? It's better to order him to surrender."

"Surrender is useless. What I want is occupation. They all listen to me, instead of surrendering on the surface and secretly acting as their own emperor."

Cheng Yu nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "Let's go to an imperial decree first to find out his mind. If there is any objection, just wave your troops to destroy it."

I don't know if it was the impact of the Battle of Chibi, but Yuan Xi was somewhat worried that his army would be burned.

Yuan Xi did not dare to underestimate the Jiangdong Sun family.

"What about Huang Zu?" Yuan Xi asked again.

"Although Huang Zu surrendered, he will visit the lord in the future, and he will still guard Jiangxia. Send someone to ask him to go back to Xiangyang to have a look."

Yuan Xi nodded, and immediately asked Chen Lin to draft two letters.

Send one to Sun Quan and one to Huang Zu.

Yuan Xi won Jingzhou for a relatively short period of time, and did not make any changes to Jingzhou's officialdom for the time being.

However, after Yuan Xi took Jingzhou completely, the first thing he did was to send Liu Biao and his family to Yecheng.

When Liu Xie needed help, Liu Biao didn't move at all. Yuan Xi felt that the two should have a common language.

As soon as Liu Biao left, the local aboriginal officials in Jingzhou were ready to move, eyeing the position of shepherd in Jingzhou.

Originally, Cai Mao, the head of the Cai family, the largest family in Jingzhou, came to the door in person.

Cai Mao served as Liu Biao's military adviser during Liu Biao's period. This official said that he was very big, and that he was not small but also very small.

If Yuan Xi didn't care about it, he would have only one empty job.

But this does not hinder Cai Mao's ambition at this time.

Did he surrender No.1, or did he surrender with an army of tens of thousands.

It stands to reason that his contribution is very large.

With this in mind, Cai Mao came to visit Liu Biao as soon as he left.

"Cai Mao?"

In the study, Yuan Xi was dealing with official documents while being intimate with Ma Yunlu and Lu Qiling.

is living fast.

Hearing the guards talking outside the study, although the second daughter was bold, she hurriedly arranged her clothes and entered the inner room of the study.

"Call him in."

Cai Mao bowed his head and walked in hastily.

"Meet the General."

"no."

Yuan Xi raised his head and said with a smile, "Is De Gui okay?"

Cai Mao hurriedly said: "The general has been busy with official duties since he came to Jingzhou. Today is my younger sister's birthday, so I dared to invite the general to a banquet to honor the lintel, and the general just happened to take a rest to relieve his fatigue."

Yuan Xi put down his brush and stretched his waist, "What De Gui said is reasonable, but today is your younger sister's birthday, so it's not good for me to go?"

Cai Mao flattered and said with a smile: "Little sister has always admired heroes, and has always regarded the general as a hero in her heart. If the general goes there in person today, the younger sister will not be happy in time. Is there anything wrong with that?"

"In that case, let's go."

Yuan Xi also felt very tired after dealing with business affairs for many days.

Cai Mao was overjoyed, "In the evening, someone sent a carriage to meet the general."

"No need, I can go by myself."

Cai Mao didn't dare to say more, and flattered him a few more words before leaving contentedly.

"The old guy didn't follow his heart."

Ma Yunlu, who was dressed in pink tulle, came out from the inner room, "Husband, please be careful."

"Oh, watch out for what?"

Yuan Xi pointed to the shoulder, and Lu Qiling hurriedly kneaded it.

Ma Yunlu knelt and sat beside Yuan Xi, and said: "He wants to invite my husband to a banquet. As a husband, it is only a banquet alone, but it must be weird to have a banquet in the name of my sister's birthday."

Yuan Xi was puzzled, "What's so weird?"

"He, his sister." Ma Yunlu's own hot temper always feels awkward when talking about these men and women.

Yuan Xi looked at her exquisite face covered with blush, and found it interesting, stretched his ape arms to embrace the beautiful woman in his arms.

"This old man is so old, so what about my sister? Can I still like older women?"

Ma Yunlu's concern was confused. Hearing this, his eyes rolled, and his cheeks began to burn again, "It seems to be true. I didn't pay attention to his age. His sister should be very old."

Yuan Xi gently tapped her finger on her fragrant shoulders covered by light gauze, then let her go and said, "I remember that Cai Mao married his younger sister to Liu Biao. Which younger sister was he talking about? Did you follow her this time?" Liu Biao in the past?"

The two women looked at each other, how could they know the relationship.

"Send someone to call Jia Xu."

Yuan Xi patted Ma Yunlu's arm.

Ma Yunlu said to the outside: "Come here, go and call Jia Wen and the military adviser, and tell him that the general has something to do with him."

After Jia Xu came, Ma Yunlu and Lu Qiling entered the inner room again.

"sit."

Yuan Xi looked at Jia Xu with a smile.

Yuan Jun's journey was as fast as a bamboo, without any difficulty, and the military divisions under him were almost becoming decorations.

Others don't know, but Yuan Xi knows that Jia Xu must be the happiest.

Just look at his red face.

"I don't know what the lord is looking for?"

After Jia Xu sat down on her knees, she asked with a smile.

"It's just some trifles." Yuan Xi cut to the chase, "Do you understand Cai Mao?"

Jia Xu caressed his beard and said with a smile: "I have learned a little bit about it. Cai Mao was born in the Cai family, a powerful and powerful family in Xiangyang County, Nanjun County. His aunt is the wife of Zhang Wen, the Taiwei of the Eastern Han Dynasty. He has five brothers and sisters."

"Which five people?"

There are many brothers and sisters in this era, Yuan Xi is not surprised.

Jia Xu replied: "The elder sister married Huang Chengyan in her early years, and the younger sister married Liu Biao as her stepmother. There are two younger brothers, Cai Zhong and Cai He, who are currently serving in the army."

Yuan Xi nodded, and suddenly asked: "How does the military adviser evaluate Cai Mao?"

Jia Xu quickly shook her head, "I just know a little bit, but I've never met this person before, so I don't know him very well."

Yuan Xi briefly told Jia Xu about Cai Mao's arrival.

When Jia Xu heard this, she looked strange.

"Is there a problem?" Yuan Xi asked.

Jia Xu shook her head and said, "I never thought Cai Mao would take my sister back."

Yuan Xi suddenly lowered his voice and said, "How old is Sister Cai Mao?"

The two went to the brothel together, Jia Xu was not surprised that Yuan Xi would ask such a question.

"It's quite old, but its charm is just right."

Jia Xu hesitated for a moment, then commented objectively.

Yuan Xi frowned and said, "How big is it?"

"Less than thirty."

Yuan Xi glanced at him and joked, "You know it well."

Jia Xu touched his nose, "There is nothing left and right, let the lord watch the joke."

"How do you know that he is charming?" Yuan Xi suddenly asked again.

Jia Xu smiled embarrassedly and said, "I came to inquire, Jingzhou is a land of wealth and wealth, and there are many beautiful wines and beauties. It is rumored that Cai Mao's sister is beautiful and dignified. Although I don't know whether it is true or not, I think she is also a beautiful woman."

Yuan Xi pointed to Jia Xu and nodded. This old man is old enough to inquire about these things all day long.

"Wen He is so old, how can he care about these lace and wild things, and be careful to be discovered by others, saying that you are old and disrespectful."

Jia Xu nodded again and again, indicating that she knew.

"Have you found out any tricks?" Yuan Xi asked again after finishing his criticism.

Jia Xu secretly laughed, Yuan Xi was able to go to the brothel for the night before leading the army, it was a real evil spirit.

If it wasn't for not caring about the beauties in Jingzhou, she wouldn't have called him here today.

Fortunately, he had prepared a few days ago.

Coughing twice, Jia Xu said: "There are famous talented women in Jingzhou, and there are ugly women. There are really beauties with the color of glass, but I have never heard of them."

Yuan Xi showed regret, "The talented Cai Wenji?"

Jia Xu was taken aback, and said, "Cai Wenji?"

Yuan Xi was also stunned, and there is a talented woman who is more famous by Cai Wenji?
"Who is that talented girl?"

"Cai Zhaoji." Jia Xu sighed, "It's a pity that during the Guanzhong Rebellion, the Southern Huns took the opportunity to rebel and plunder. It is said that Zhaoji fell into the hands of King Zuo Xian."

Yuan Xi was stunned.

In history books, Cai Zhaoji's taboo was changed to Cai Wenji's.

But now obviously there is no taboo to avoid, but he made a big joke.

"It really makes no sense!"

Yuan Xi said angrily: "How can my big man's daughter fall into the hands of barbarians, I will send someone to get Miss Cai back."

At this time, the relationship between the Xiongnu and the Yuan family was good, and Yuan Xi didn't think that if he wanted a woman, the Xiongnu would refuse.

Jia Xu said softly: "Zhaoji lives in a bitter cold place, she must miss her home and country, my lord's move is really kind."

Yuan Xi immediately ordered people to go to the Xiongnu to bring Cai Zhaoji back.

If you don't give it, you will redeem it first.

The two were emotional, and Yuan Xi asked again: "Who is that ugly girl?"

Jia Xu stroked his beard and smiled and said, "She is Zhuge Liang's wife, Huang Chengyan's daughter, and Huang Yueying is also."

Yuan Xi has heard of Huang Yueying before, and even read historical novels.

Although it is said that Huang Yueying is an ugly girl, Huang Yueying is very beautiful in the novel.

"Ugly?"

"Absolutely ugly!"

Jia Xu seemed very determined.

"have you seen?"

Jia Xu shook her head, "Although I haven't seen a certain one, someone has seen it. She is not ordinary ugly."

Yuan Xi sighed: "I heard that Kong Ming is handsome and romantic, but I never imagined that he would marry such an ugly girl. What a wilting husband!"

Jia Xu put away her smile and said solemnly: "My lord, I want to recommend a great talent to you today."

"Who?"

"Zhuge Kongming!"

Jia Xu said sternly: "This man is called Wolong. He has the talent to know the world, and he is ten times better than someone. It is rumored that Wolong and phoenix chicks can secure the world. If the Lord wants to decide the Central Plains, he must be this man."

Yuan Xi was silent.

He didn't expect that Zhuge Liang hadn't come out of the mountain at this time.

But think about it, Liu Bei has Xu Shu, and Cao Cao was killed by himself again, so it's strange that Zhuge Liang can go.

In other words, no one wants this guy now.

Thinking of this, Yuan Xi smiled and said: "The crouching dragon is still lying down, and the young phoenix is ​​flying, so my world can be stable."

Jia Xu was stunned, then smiled coyly, shook his head and said: "Zhuge Liang is good at governing the army and the whole country, Pang Tong is good at military strategy and knowledge of people, Pang Tong is needed to conquer the world, and Zhuge Liang is needed to govern the world. My lord, don't miss such talents."

"Okay, I'll send someone to call him tomorrow and use him."
