Hegemony of the Three Kingdoms: I really just want to be Cao Cao's janitor

Chapter 316
The next day.

Early in the morning, Zhang Lu was wandering around in his yard. Yesterday Ma Teng had informed him that they were going to sneak attack Lu Mou's army, so he waited anxiously early in the morning, but after noon, there was still no news, as if yesterday As if nothing happened, he immediately sent someone out to find out the news!
When the spies came back, they gave Zhang Lu the news, but Zhang Lu was taken aback. This result was something he never expected.

He didn't expect that Ma Teng and Yuan Shao would be defeated by joining forces!

I thought before that if the worst outcome of this battle was won, it would be very tragic, but I never thought that it would be a big defeat!
"What's going on?" Zhang Lu asked.

"My lord, yesterday's battle didn't last very long, and they were defeated!"

Just one sentence made Zhang Lu feel a little unreal!

In the land of Hanzhong, my biggest reliance now is not my own army, but Ma Teng's army. If Ma Teng was defeated last night, if the foundation is damaged, the next Ma Teng has a great possibility of withdrawing from the Hanzhong stage , this is especially unfavorable to oneself!
"I want to see Ma Teng!" Zhang Lu said.

When Zhang Lu wanted to meet Ma Teng, Ma Teng's envoy also came to Zhang Lu's mansion, Zhang Lu immediately asked, "What happened yesterday?"

"Mr. Zhang, don't worry..."

"What time is it, can I not be in a hurry!" Zhang Lu interrupted the messenger.

"Mr. Zhang, let me finish. My lord has said that although we have suffered a big defeat, we have hardly lost anything. I hope Mr. Zhang will calm down!" said the envoy.

After listening, Zhang Lu breathed a sigh of relief. Now that he knows that Ma Teng will not quit, he will have to rely on him. There is hope!
Victory or defeat is standard issue!
One defeat is nothing, what Zhang Lu is afraid of is that Ma Teng will lose his fighting spirit because of this, now it seems that Ma Teng is much stronger than he imagined!
"Okay! Tell General Ma Teng about the matter in the city, and let General Ma Teng rest assured!" Zhang Lu said.

"I will convey to my lord, and please be patient, Mr. Zhang!" The envoy left after finishing speaking. After all, if he stayed in Zhang Lu's mansion for a long time, it would be a trouble if he was found by the eagle dog who was looking for the way!
Zhang Lu didn't send him off, but turned around and walked closer to the study room. As soon as he entered the study room, Yin had already been waiting for Zhang Lu. Zhang Lu was also a little surprised to see Yin, and then recovered his emotions.

"Ma Teng failed!" Zhang Lu said blankly.

"I already know about this matter. Lu Mou's army is more cautious than we believe, and their sense of smell is so sensitive, and the deployment is also very fast!" Yin seemed to have expected everything, this time only It's a temptation. For him, the real battle is the next one!

After this test, he has fully understood the combat power of Lu Mou's army, and there have been a lot of deviations from what he imagined. He had underestimated Lu Mou's army before.

And just this morning, they discovered that Lu Mou's army had disappeared in place and disappeared!Now you can only find it in Duodu!

"In the past few days, you should do your own thing well, and you don't need to interfere with outside affairs! Appease those guys in the city!" After Yin finished speaking, she disappeared in front of Zhang Lu. Zhang Lu's expression did not change at all. He has long been accustomed to such behavior!

……

In the restaurant, Lu Mou knew that there was a big battle yesterday, which made him a little surprised, and Zhao Yun also told himself that they had quietly moved!

Lu Mou had no opinion on this matter, and he didn't think that Ma Teng's army was a blind cat meeting a dead mouse. He thought it was premeditated, and few people could detect the way his army was hiding. Lu Mou guessed It's the ghosts of those guys from the Yin Yang family!
However, Lu Mou did not expect that the members of the Yin Yang family were actually connected with Ma Teng's members!This surprised him!
"Tell Zhao Yun that the camps can be made public. It's not our style to hide here and there! Now that the situation in Hanzhong has become famous, there is no point in hiding it!" Lu Mou said to Ding Bao.

"My lord, Cao Ren wants to meet us!" Ding Bao said.

"Okay! Let him come to me! Then you go about your own business!" Lu Mou said.

Although he didn't know why Cao Ren was looking for him, he knew very well that his identity must not have been exposed, otherwise the whole city would have known about it!
As for yesterday's battle, I don't know who leaked the news, but now the entire Hanzhong City already knows about yesterday's battle!

They re-evaluated the strength of Lu Mou's army, and some people even reported that Lu Mou was about to take down Hanzhong City!
Moreover, they have learned something about Lu Mou's recovery of Wancheng, and they believe that when Lu Mou's army breaks the city, anyone who supports Lu Mou will not die!
This matter is also spreading wildly among the people!

When Zhang Lu learned that at this time, his complexion was very bad. He also knew why he wanted to comfort himself when Yin walked away. He also understood that this matter should not continue to ferment, otherwise it would be particularly bad for him. If he lost the popular support, he would be close to losing Hanzhong Not far away!
Wancheng is a vivid example!

However, Zhang Lu also has his own confidence. Although this matter has spread among the people, his years of management in Hanzhong and the subtle influence of the masses' thinking have given Zhang Lu great confidence.

……

At this moment, Cao Ren came to the restaurant, and Guo Jia was beside him. Originally, Cao Ren didn't want to have too much anxiety with this merchant from Jingzhou, but Guo Jia insisted on testing this merchant from Jingzhou. As a last resort, Cao Ren offered to meet him!
As soon as they met, Lu Mou recognized Guo Jia. Although they hadn't seen each other for many years, they used to be good friends, and he healed his illness by himself!

"The two of you came to the door today, making my place flourish!" Lu Mou said with a smile.

"Brother Huang, you are being polite. Brother Huang is not someone else, but a recognized master in the world. It is not easy to meet Brother Huang!" Cao Ren said with a smile.

"Where! Where! People in the world just gave him a false name, who is this brother?" Lu Mou looked at Guo Jia and asked with doubts.

Guo Jia smiled and said, "Guo Jia!"

Lu Mou pretended to mutter: "Guo Jia has never heard of it..."

Although Lu Mou didn't speak loudly, there were only three people in the room, and Cao Ren and Guo Jia had heard it a long time ago. Cao Ren looked a little embarrassed!Guo Jia looked normal!

"It's normal if you haven't heard of it, I'm just a low-level person!" Guo Jia said with a smile.

Afterwards, Lu Mou waved his hand and said, "Although I have never heard of it before, but when I saw it today, Brother Guo and I hit it off!"

Cao Ren saw that the two of them didn't know what to say, so he simply didn't say a word, while Guo Jia said: "Brother Huang is a straightforward person, and I don't act like a girl. When I came here today, I just wanted to ask. What do you think?"

view?

Of course Lu Mou wanted to sit and watch!But he can't say it, his own army defeated the enemy, he has no opinion!
However, Lu Mou said with a smile: "You know that I am from Jingzhou. Now that the Jingzhou soldiers have won a big victory, I am naturally happy in my heart!"

"Brother Huang is not pretentious, it's really refreshing to talk to you!" Guo Jia said.

Since being in Huang Xiao's room today, Guo Jia has felt a little familiar. He even has a feeling that he has seen this person before, but he can't remember where he saw him. He also thought about it carefully. In my memory, there is really no one like Huang Xiao!
Now, the situation in Hanzhong has begun, and the war has been quietly fought four times, all because of Ma Teng!

The civil officials in Hanzhong City, the princes from all over the country, and even Zhang Lu who is unwilling to give up Hanzhong are all secretly planning the ownership of Hanzhong City!

When Guo Jia came here this time, he wanted to find out what kind of position this Jingzhou businessman was standing in?
Who does he belong to?
When the four families have intentions, the relationship between each family is also very chaotic. Although Cao Cao asked them to wait for the opportunity, after yesterday's battle, it is obvious that someone wants to speed up the process of Hanzhong's ownership!

Especially the appearance of the Yin Yang family made Guo Jia understand that the Yin Yang family wants to speed up!
"I'm a businessman. Whoever Hanzhong belongs to doesn't seem to have much to do with me. I don't want to care about this turmoil! Of course, if I want someone to take it down, I still hope for Jingzhou. After all, I am from Jingzhou." , to your own people, nothing!" Lu Mou said with a smile.

He also made it very clear that he didn't want to participate in the affairs of Hanzhong. If he had to support him, he would still support Jingzhou. If his hometown didn't support him, he couldn't justify it!

"Brother Huang is telling the truth! But, brother Huang wants to settle in Yanzhou?" Guo Jia changed his style and said this sentence suddenly!
Lu Mou was taken aback for a moment, he thought Guo Jia would be more tactful, but he didn't expect Guo Jia to be so decisive!

"I'm a merchant, and I can't stay anywhere for long. In other words, wherever there is stability, I will appear somewhere. I think that Hanzhong is not stable now, and I myself feel unlucky. This has delayed too much time and led to this. The first time I came out, I didn't earn any money, but I spent a lot of time with him! Next time, I have to find a safe place!" Lu Mou said.

Guo Jia's expression didn't change at all. He understood what Lu Mou meant. Yuan Shao had been staring at the land of Yanzhou. He obviously said that the land of Yanzhou was not safe, and a battle could break out at any time!And this time I came to Hanzhong by mistake, and I didn't expect this to happen!
"Hanzhong is in danger now, and I don't know who will belong to the war? Isn't Brother Huang afraid that after the city is broken, someone will be against you?" Guo Jia asked.

"It's not good for me? I really didn't think of this, but I think with my current strength, no one would want to mess with me! I'm a merchant, and I travel all over the world. Although my home is in Jingzhou, I believe that, I didn't dare to go to Lu Mou's chassis to provoke my family, not to mention that I have some friendship with Lu Mou, to ensure the safety of my family, he can still give me this face; if someone really wants to touch me, I don't know if he can. Can you bear my anger?"
