There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

"Didn't you say it just now? Controlling the food stockpiles and food roads in Xingyang is equivalent to controlling the lifeblood of each battalion. No matter how brave Lu Bu is, and how good the Bingzhou army is at fighting, can they still not eat?"

Li Jue blinked and said hesitantly, "What if they really don't want to eat?"

Black lines began to appear on the back of Jia Xu's head.

He felt a little regretful that he had joined forces with Li Jue, and he felt an urge to kick him to death.

This guy really can't bring it up.

"Don't worry, he must eat. If Lu Bu really doesn't eat, then you will come and kill the old man."

Jia Xu waved her hands impatiently, not wanting to discuss undisputed topics with Li Jue.

What do cultural people desire most when they live in the world?

Bosom friend.

"After containing Lu Bu, let him go to the rear. First, it can weaken the combat power of the Bingzhou army, which is good for you, general, to take charge of the overall situation in the future. In addition, it can also win the favor of the generals of Liangzhou."

Li Jue nodded heavily and said, "This is possible!"

Jia Xu continued: "The general should also pay attention to General Niu Fu Niu. He is the son-in-law of Xiangguo. At critical moments, Bao Buqi will stand up and seize power with you. The general should be more cautious with him, there is no harm."

Li Jue grinned.

This old thing's thoughts are too meticulous, right?

Even his current superior is in his calculations?

Jia Xu looked at Li Jue's puzzled eyes indifferently, and said lightly, "I'm helping you now."

In a word, Li Jue woke up immediately.

No matter how unfathomable his mind is, he is helping me now, yes!This is enough.

After Li Jue figured it out, he nodded and laughed repeatedly: "That is, that is Wenhe, and what should we do on the side of Chang'an?"

Jia Xu looked at him suspiciously, and said, "What should I do? Let it go."

Hearing this, Li Jue showed timidity again.

"Let it go? That's not acceptable! If Chang'an is captured by Ma Teng and Han Sui, and the emperor is kidnapped and left, then the general will return to Chang'an. Wouldn't he have nothing?"

Jia Xu waved his hand, signaling him to be calm.

"General, don't worry, the situation you mentioned will definitely not happen. I have lived in Xiliang for a long time, and I know more or less the temperament of Tsushima and Han. The two of them have good times and bad times. Internal strife is not once or twice. Before conquering Chang'an, the two of them will work together, but once Chang'an is captured, things will not be easy. Ma Teng is thick and Han Sui is deceitful. If there is another internal strife, as long as the general grasps the timing well and take advantage of their internal strife to attack each other, returning to Chang'an to regain the emperor, in my opinion, is not a difficult task."

Chapter 269 The Rise of Li Jue

After listening to Jia Xu's analysis of Ma and Han, Li Jue suddenly realized.

However, he was still a little uneasy.

"However, Chang'an was captured by Ma Teng and Han Sui. Wouldn't it be true that the soldiers in the city and Xiangguo stayed in the old headquarters in Chang'an, and none of them survived?"

Jia Xu looked at Li Jue fixedly, there seemed to be deep meaning in her eyes.

"Doesn't General Li think this is a good thing?"

Li Jue heard this, and for some reason, goosebumps all over his body were about to fall to the ground.

"What kind of good thing can this be?"

Jia Xu said quietly: "In Chang'an City, Xiangguo's family members, sons, arms, and confidantes, what do you plan to do with them after General Li takes power? Do you think the Xiliang generals will turn to the general or to Xiangguo's son? And Li Ru, if he is determined to assist Xiangguo's son-in-law to take the throne, does the general think you are Li Ru's opponent?"

After saying a few words, Li Jue was dumbfounded and froze on the spot.

Speaking of this, Jia Xu gestured lightly with his hands and said, "Instead of letting the situation develop to that extent, it is better for Ma Teng and Han Sui to conquer Chang'an and help the general clear Xiangguo's blood in Chang'an. The direct descendants, including Li Ru, may still have some loyal to the emperor. These Hanchens who may trip up the general in the future will die in this incident. Isn’t it good? It also saves the general in the future trouble."

On Li Jue's head, cold sweat dripped down miserably.

This is too fucking poisonous!

But I really like it!

After being silent for a long time, Li Jue suddenly said to Jia Xu firmly: "If this general succeeds, I will treat you as a gentleman of the state, and I will never lose you."

Jia Xu shook his head, and said: "No need, I don't want to be a high-ranking official, and I don't want to get involved in the military affairs of Xiliang. At that time, I only need to cover my head in one room, and a bowl of rice is enough."

Li Jue was a little silly again when he heard this.

Pure in heart and few desires, neither ambitious nor greedy.

This old man is a fucking gentleman.

Li Jue immediately began to follow Jia Xu's instructions, and began to move step by step.

When all the generals in the army were panicked by Dong Zhuo's sudden illness, he secretly dispatched his cronies to control the food road leading to Xingyang, and sent his confidant generals to Xingyang to occupy Dong Zhuo. The granary placed in the rear before the expedition, in this way, completely strangled the lifeline of Dong Zhuo's army's rear.

The matter was soon discovered by the generals of the Xiliang Army.

The matter of food and grass is of great importance. The food and grass of each battalion suddenly changed from the original quartermaster to the people under Li Jue's command. It's strange that everyone can't doubt it.

Even so, no one dared to mess around at this juncture.

Then, in order to appease everyone, Li Jue immediately held a military meeting.

At the meeting, Li Jue had completely assumed himself as the top leader, and began to give orders and arrangements to the generals.

"My colleagues, Xiangguo is seriously ill now, and the morale of the army is slackened. The rear of Guanzhong has been harassed by Ma Teng and Han Sui. Important town, at this time of crisis, you should have the responsibility to stand up and share the worries of the country, and I ask you to help me for the future of our Liangzhou army."

Li Jue's words were so straightforward, both openly and secretly. In addition, he had food and grass in his hand, and he was also powerful and prestigious. The generals of the Liangzhou Army present were not fools, how could they not?

But in everyone's heart, there is still some concern.

Jia Xu had analyzed the mentality of the generals of the Liangzhou Army long before the incident, and had also proposed a solution to him, so Li Jue knew it well.

He cleared his throat, then said some unnutritious nonsense to the generals first, and arranged some arrangements that were not hurtful, and then brought the topic to the right path bit by bit.

"My colleagues, right now the morale of the army in front is not stable, and there are two thieves from Ma and Han attacking Chang'an root in the rear. People are staring at the front, if our army retreats, it will inevitably attract Yuan Cao and others to chase me. It is a small matter to die, but Xiangguo is not in good health. If Yuan Cao takes advantage of the opportunity to kill us, we will not be guilty of a great crime? Therefore , for the safety of the prime minister, it is necessary to cut off the capable ones."

After Li Jue finished speaking, all the people in the tent lowered their heads without making a sound.

In the current situation, the end of the matter is no small matter. The Yuan, Cao, and Tao families are eyeing their own side in Chenliu. Once the army withdraws, according to Yuan Shao's urgency, how can they be lightly forgiven?It will inevitably be carefully arranged, and the army will be dispatched to cover up the killing. At that time, it will be dangerous to leave those who are left behind.

No one in the venue is willing to accept this kind of thankless work.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Li Jue felt a little more admiration for Jia Xu in his heart.
