Three Kingdoms: God of Swallowing

"Report! General, someone from the Xuzhou army is asking to see you." The orderly suddenly broke in and shouted loudly.

"How many people are here? What do they look like?" the young man asked, his tone majestic and quite imposing.

"One, looks only eighteen or nineteen years old!" The orderly replied truthfully.

"Alone? He's really courageous. He broke into my Wancheng single-handedly. Let's let it dry first. You should retreat first." The young man waved back the messenger, and then asked the old man beside him: "Mr. Wenhe (Jia Xu), what do you think of this matter?"

Jia Xu stroked his long beard with a smile on his face, instead of answering him immediately, he asked him instead, "How does the general think his strength compares to Xuzhou's?"

"I might as well?" Zhang Xiu replied without hesitation.

Facts are facts, he shrunk to a corner of Wancheng, stationed here with [-] miscellaneous soldiers, and lived day by day, so he didn't have the capital to fight Xuzhou at all.

Compared with Liu Biao, his foundation is much weaker. Once a war starts, he will definitely not be Xuzhou's opponent. Even if he can hurt Xuzhou a little, the overall situation cannot be changed anyway.

Jia Xu chuckled, and continued to ask: "Does the general want to fight for the world and become the king?"

This question is sensitive and somewhat difficult to answer.Zhang Xiu thought for a while, then heaved a long sigh, and said with some disappointment: "Although I, Zhang Xiu, have a bad temper, I still have some self-knowledge. The boy has taken over the uncle's family business. It's good to be able to keep it. How can I have the intention to fight for hegemony?" In the world, I am not that kind of material at all. Besides, now I don’t even have a decent general under my command, and the only adviser I have is you, sir. I am satisfied with my life now, and I don’t want to take it away. Lao Shizi is not the world, so if he can keep this family business, everything will be fine."

Jia Xu squinted her old eyes, walked a few steps with her hands behind her back, came to the gate, turned around suddenly and said, "If the old man advises you to go to Xuzhou, I don't know what the general...what do you think?"

Chapter 72 Marriage

"Ah! Go to Xuzhou?" After hearing this, Zhang Xiu was shocked at first, and then furious. What he hopes most now is to keep his family business. If it is so easy to give away his foundation, his uncle If he found out, he might immediately jump up from the tomb and curse at himself.

Of course Zhang Xiu didn't want to, now that he had a heavy army in his hands, no one could control him, but once he defected to others, he might not have the good fortune to live this leisurely life.

"Yes, if the old man's guess is correct, the person who came here is probably Xuzhou Zhou Mu, who is also the instructor of the Canlang Camp!" Jia Xu's expression was a little serious, he looked at Zhang Xiu solemnly, and said in a deep voice: "Yi In my humble opinion, if the general wants to keep his current position, he should go to Xuzhou."

"Can wolf instructor? Is that the can wolf battalion that scares Jingzhou soldiers away with only a few hundred people?" Zhang Xiu was shocked. You have to think about it, not only because of their bravery, but also because of their ferocity. When it comes to remnant wolves, few people will not be afraid.

It takes a certain amount of courage and strength to kill the enemy with only a few hundred people.

Since Xuzhou Zhoumu was able to train a battalion of remnant wolves, he could also train a second and third battalion. Once time passed, who would be Xuzhou's opponent in the end.

"Exactly." Jia Xu nodded with a smile, and carefully analyzed: "The fact that Canlang Instructor dares to come here alone means that he doesn't want to fight us head-on. After all, even if they win, many people will die. Now they should come to fight us. Negotiations, since the Canlang instructor is so sincere, why don't the general take this opportunity to submit to him, I think, with the general's 4 troops, he can also win a good position. If not, if the two sides fight, we will not have any The chances of winning, let alone the [-]-odd army brought by Feng Xiao, the few hundred remnants of wolf soldiers alone are worth more than [-] troops, once we fight, we have no choice but to lose."

"What's more, isn't the general's biggest wish now is to keep this family business? If he joins Xuzhou, I don't think Mr. Zhou Mu will treat the general badly. As long as Xuzhou is not destroyed, the family business in the general's hands will only flourish. not bad."

"But if I give him all my wealth in Xuzhou, will they kick me away?" Zhang Xiu had to think this way. If he has nothing and they don't reuse him, then he I don't regret it yet.

After all, he didn't understand Ye Tian's character, if he ate and wiped it all away, Zhang Xiu wouldn't even have a place to cry.

It's like borrowing money. When others borrow money from you, they call you your father, but when you ask others to pay you back, no one will even call you your father!

This is the way of the world, and it is easy to do things with power in hand.

"The general's concern is not unreasonable. I have a note, I wonder if the general is willing to listen?" Jia Xu laughed.

"I would like to hear the details! Let's hear it!" Zhang Xiu couldn't wait.

"General, according to the old man's observation, Xuzhou State Mu is probably a person who wants to compete for the world. According to the current situation, Xuzhou has a great chance of winning. If I wait to join Xuzhou, I may be able to become a hero in the founding of the country in the future. Since Xuzhou has the power to rule the world General, why don't you take this opportunity to blackmail Instructor Can Lang, if the general and Instructor Can Lang become a family, the world will be unified in the future, Instructor Can Lang will ascend to the emperor...then you, General..." Jia Xu said very tactfully, Layers of temptations are analyzed layer by layer, as long as he is not an idiot, anyone can understand what he said.

Of course Zhang Xiu is not an idiot, he obviously understood what Jia Xu meant.

"A family? That's right." Zhang Xiu slapped himself on the forehead suddenly, and shouted to the outside: "Immediately ask Xuzhou to come in, hey, wait a minute, I will go to greet you in person."

Zhang Xiu felt that it would be more sincere to go by himself, so he stopped the herald and hurriedly greeted him.

"Wait!" Jia Xu called Zhang Xiu hastily.

"What? Is there anything else you want to order, sir?" Zhang Xiu stopped and turned around.

Jia Xu smiled and reminded: "General, you seem to have forgotten one thing. Although getting married is easy, the key point is - General, you don't seem to have a daughter who is the same size as Xuzhou Zhoumu."

Hearing this, Zhang Xiu patted himself on the forehead again, thinking to himself that he was confused, how could he have such an old daughter, he himself was only in his early twenties, how could he give birth to an 18-year-old daughter, marriage seems a bit unworkable.

Zhang Xiu was in a hurry, and hurriedly asked: "I don't know what advice you have, sir?"

Jia Xu pondered for a while, then said: "I heard that Zhou Mu of Xuzhou already has two beautiful wives, and these two women are quite famous. One is Mr. Cai Yong, the youngest daughter of Mr. Cai. Cai Yan, this woman is not only beautiful, but also talented beyond the reach of ordinary literati, even her father Mr. Cai often laments her inferiority!"

"Ah... this..." Zhang Xiu was surprised.

"The other one is even worse. Legend has it that Lu Bu betrayed Grand Master Dong because he was bewitched by this girl. Her name is Diao Chan, and she is Situ Wangyun's adopted daughter. It is not an exaggeration to say that the number one beauty who deserves her name is all over the city and all over the country!"

"This..." Zhang Xiu was even more surprised, "Looking at it this way, it's really hard for ordinary women to do it!"

Both the No. [-] beauty and the No. [-] talented woman became Ye Tian's wives. How dare Zhang Xiu fool him with ordinary women. He originally planned to recognize a goddaughter casually, but now it seems that it will not work.

Jia Xu seemed to have noticed Zhang Xiu's difficulties, narrowed her old eyes, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, General, this matter is not difficult to solve, as long as the General thinks about it carefully, this solution...isn't it here? ?”

"You mean...Auntie?" In Zhang Xiu's opinion, the only person who can compare you with Cai Yan Diaochan is his uncle's wife, Zou Yun, "but...Auntie is a widow, and the Xuzhou Pastor will accept her." Is it? Besides, this relationship...seems a bit incest?"

"Hehe, this is even simpler. The general only needs to change the identity of Ms. Zou from aunt to sister-in-law. In short, the most important thing now is to get married with Xuzhou as soon as possible, even if Xuzhou knows about it. It doesn't matter who Ms. Zou is, at that time, the good thing has already been done, and Xuzhou Fang can't let it go even if she insists on it."

This idea sounds like a bit of a loss.

However, for the Zhang family, Zhang Xiu went all out.

If he is really married to Instructor Canlang, once he becomes emperor in the future, he will be a relative of the emperor.

This is a gamble. In this era, I always have to make a choice. I don't want to fight for the world, but others will not let me go because I don't have the heart to fight for the world. In the end, I still have to choose a side to rely on.

Now that Xuzhou's reputation has risen, there is a high chance of unifying the world. If he bets on Xuzhou, he may end up with a lot of money in the near future.

Chapter 73

Righteous sister is just a formality. What Zhang Xiu needs now is identity. He believes that Xuzhou Fang will not care so much, no matter where the woman comes from, as long as the interests of both parties are reached, even if she knows she is a widow, she will marry her.

All because of interests!

"Okay! Let's do it like this!" Zhang Xiu made up his mind and walked out.

Jia Xu nodded in relief and followed behind him.

This situation can be said to have been created by him.

In fact, Jia Xu also has her own thoughts, Zhang Xiu has no ambitions, and is never a master worth serving. Following Ye Tian, ​​he has the opportunity to display his talents. As a counselor, he does not want to be unknown.

"I think at the beginning, when I was a gangster, I saw a son who had no one in his eyes and looked down on me. I didn't say a word, but I rushed up and tripped him up. His grandma dared to bully me, you guys! Guess what happened in the end..."

"What's the matter? Tell me!"

"Hey, beating him up is a waste of time and effort. Young master, I thought about it and thought about it. After hundreds of millions of brain cells died, I came up with a good place. You know the toilet. The smell of that place is very ecstasy, hehe , that place has enough nutrients, which is very useful for treating the brain-dead party, so I planted him as an onion, and the effect was not bad, and it took root and sprouted the next day, but I didn't see it!"
