[Three Kingdoms] Your nemesis is online

When the two of them arrived in front of the governor's mansion, it was already full of plains, and the sound of mourning and joy mixed with bursts of crying, set against the flames of war in front of the city gate. I don't know whether it was for the death of the governor of Xuzhou, or for this Xuzhou.

Maybe they have both, maybe they don't, and their own lives can't be guaranteed.

At this moment of silence, Guo Jia didn't intend to find some topics to break, Zhang Liang looked at the governor's mansion with a difficult expression on his face.

When the two entered, many people who had never met before looked at them as if they were staring at their enemies.

Zhang Liang burned incense and worshiped three times in front of the spirit pivot as usual, then turned and walked towards Liu Bei who was waiting at the side.

Every time Zhang Liang took a step, the potters and their relatives knelt beside him, and the murderous look in their eyes staring at Zhang Liang became more intense.

Guo Jia, who was observing all this, seemed to have discovered some secret information to outsiders.

He said why Zhang Liang walked directly towards Liu Bei without even looking at the pottery merchant kneeling beside him, there was really no comparison and no harm.

"Let's talk outside!"

Liu Bei stretched out his hand towards the direction of the door, made a gesture of invitation, and even moved his feet when the potter was about to speak, slightly blocking the potter's sight.

Liu Bei invited the two of them out of the noisy lobby, people gathered in front, and the place in the mansion was extremely quiet, no one even came and went.

Zhang Liang went straight to the point and stated his intention of coming, "I don't know when the news of the massacre will spread in Xuzhou. If it is not stopped as soon as possible, the people fleeing Xuzhou will experience another catastrophe."

It was a catastrophe, not an ordinary disaster. The reason why Zhang Liang said it was so serious was that the fleeing of the people not only threatened Xuzhou, but also caused disputes in other states and counties.

Among the thirteen prefectures, Xuzhou's population is already one of the places with a large enough population. Those who escape can escape, so it is completely conceivable what problems will happen along the way, and the base of the people who can't escape is also quite large.

Zhang Liang was still testing the pressure on Liu Bei, and he got something that he couldn't even imagine in his dreams, so he was a little flustered.

Solving the problem of slaughtering the city is also solving Tao Qian's heart disease, and solving the problem that Liu Bei can sit on the governor of Xuzhou with peace of mind.

He could hear the pressure from Zhang Liang, "I'm prepared to let the two of you leave the city as soon as possible, but I want to ask for one thing."

He passed Tao Qian and Tao Shang's father and son, but if Cao Cao wanted to call Liu Bei back to Xudu, he had no right to resist.

"Wherever you can, help if you can."

Zhang Liang never put his words too consummately.

In his own calculation, Liu Bei will definitely go to Xudu, between the emperor and Xuzhou, this choice is only he will be the former!

How can a person who has been forbearing all this time miss this moment.

Guo Jia was trying to hold Zhang Liang back, but Liu Bei didn't feel well at first sight.

"For the massacre of the city, I hope that I can go to Cao Ying with the two of you."

On this issue, Liu Bei relied on superficial overindulgence to cover up his uneasiness and fear in his position as governor.

Going together, Zhang Liang had no personal opinion. He turned his head and looked to say something, but Guo Jia, who didn't say anything in the end, seemed to acquiesce.

"It's an honor."

After bidding farewell to the two of them, he returned to the lobby and arranged the next things.

While the two were waiting, Guo Jia habitually reached out to touch the wine gourd hanging by his waist, but under the staring gaze here, he reluctantly withdrew his hand.

When Zhang Liang was about to talk about why Guo Jia was so careless, he brought the topic to Liu Bei.

"In the past, Jia thought that people who relied on a little cleverness would ignore him, but now Jia wants to hear Zizhang's evaluation of him."

Every step of the way, Zhang Liang wanted Guo Jia to pay attention to Liu Bei, and now he wanted to hear Zhang Liang's opinion even more.

After thinking about it for a while, according to his analysis of Liu Bei's intentions, "There are two kinds of purposes. People who are too forbearing of their own desires are the most terrifying existence."

"If his Uncle Liu's name is confirmed, it will be more justifiable than Cao Sikong coercing the emperor to make the princes, and he has realized the value of talents."

"Then Xuzhou is not very useful to him."

Zhang Liang never cared about his current situation, and he would die in the end.

Passed by Guo Jia and walked out, "Liu Bei should prepare the carriage at this time and go outside the mansion to see how Liangzai Xudu is not treated well by others. I think Liu Bei, the governor with only one name, those deep-rooted aristocratic families , will you obey Liu Bei?"

Although Liu Biao once entered Jingzhou with guns and horses, Liu Biao has many things in him, but Liu Bei does not have them.

By this time, they will be more cautious than anyone else, and they will not have much back.

Guo Jia nodded while listening, and he also agreed with Zhang Liang's statement, but Zhang Liang's analysis was much more thorough.

Zhang Liang seems to be very familiar with Liu Bei for the two people he obviously doesn't know.

"Obviously not. Liu Bei's identity is still unknown. After all, the children and grandchildren of King Zhongshan are unknown."

Guo Jiayou went to find out about Liu Bei's situation. Before that, they had been under Gongsun Zan's command.

If it weren't for this encirclement and suppression of Yuan Shu, the princes of the world were called to participate in it.

But Gongsun Zan himself didn't want to contribute, so he sent Liu Bei out. He didn't know how long he would stay in Youzhou.

The reason was very good, Zhang Liang didn't explain anything, when the two arrived outside the mansion, the carriage was already ready, and Liu Bei and Zhang Fei were giving orders.

After the two passed by, the conversation between the two stopped.

"Young mansion, Jijiu, let's get in the car! The city gate is currently closed, so this time we will go through the north gate."

When Liu Bei turned around, his face had changed into a respectful and humble attitude, and he didn't put himself in the position of governor at all.

Zhang Liang got into the carriage with Guo Jia, Liu Bei followed, Zhang Fei drove Guan Yu and stayed in the city. No matter where Liu Bei went, the three brothers almost always stayed together.

Zhang Liang was extremely silent among the few people, so that Guo Jia and Liu Bei lost interest in chatting to the end.

Leaving the city from the north gate, the carriage stopped slowly after detouring a lot along the original road.

Zhang Liang closed his eyes and rested his mind, then he stretched out his hand and raised the curtain of the carriage on the side and looked out. Not far away was the camp, and there was a circle of officers and soldiers around their carriage.

Zhang Fei's voice was loud, his temper became a little irritable, and he spoke without thinking, so that people didn't quite understand his intentions.

Seeing that something was wrong, Liu Bei got out of the carriage immediately, followed by Guo Jia.

"Jia goes out, they should know our purpose."

Zhang Liang's identity is very special, and I don't know how many people outside the camp are staring at this place.

After waiting for a while, Liu Bei got into the carriage.

"Go ahead."

The carriage drove slowly again, but Guo Jia did not appear again, when it stopped again.

A very loud and joyful voice came from outside the car, "Brother Xuande has come from a long way, and I, Mr. Cao, will welcome you from afar!"

After Liu Bei went out, Zhang Liang got out of the carriage after him.

The sunlight in my eyes was a bit dazzling, and I blinked several times before I slowly got used to it.

Behind Cao Cao, who was called brother and brother with Liu Bei, many people surrounded him.

All the generals stared vigilantly at Zhang Fei, who was gripping his eight-foot-long spear, but several military advisers all focused their attention on Zhang Liang.

He, Zhang Liang, didn't think he had anything to pay attention to, he just stood by the side after getting off the carriage, neither talking nor rushing.

Cao Cao exchanged a few words with Liu Bei, and then walked in front of Zhang Liang. When the eyes of the two met, Zhang Liang could see a trace of bewilderment.

It was so strange that Zhang Liang himself wondered if he had misread it.

"The Young Mansion is worried about Fengxiao's old illness, which makes Cao feel very grateful, otherwise he still doesn't know that Fengxiao's condition is serious, but this trip to Xuzhou, it's time to work."

"Zhi Cai explained, Liang dare not forget, but Feng Xiao's condition needs to be treated as soon as possible."

At this time, Zhang Liang didn't dare to draw in Guo Jia's relationship with Cao Ying.

Zhang Liang refused, but it made Cao Cao feel a little more real, and his mind jumped to today's business.

"Isn't there still something to discuss today, the tea is ready, please!"

Cao acted as the host, walking in the front alone, with Zhang Fei, Liu Bei and Zhang Liang trailing behind.

Guo Jia didn't seem to be among them, so Zhang Liang looked around and had a quick look at the arrangement of the tents, and suddenly he had a general understanding of Cao Cao's leadership.

I don't know if it was intentional or not, but the places they walked were all drills in the military camp.

Liu Bei put a high hat on Cao Cao at the right time, and held him up. "The whole army is rigorous, and the barracks are arranged one by one. It seems that they have been very carefully considered. The camp is set up."

"Cao has countless talented people, and he also relies on them, but if the entire rear of the army is taken over by someone, it won't be where it is today."

Liu Bei's compliments to Cao Cao were very useful, but Zhang Liang didn't look sideways at the people he really hoped to praise Cao Cao, and just walked forward, or didn't have the slightest intention to talk to him.

After Cao Cao skipped over the very quiet Zhang Liang, he didn't have the instinct to lead the others to watch, and walked straight into the tent.

After taking his seat, when toasting according to the etiquette, Cao Cao raised his hand to signal to be slow, "The Shaofu doesn't like drinking, so there is no need to make trouble."

It seems that others are still watching. If Cao Cao wants to be nice to a person, he really cares about everything. Will he accept this favor?

A few people were still chatting in my ears, and they didn't talk about serious business until after drinking for three rounds.

The drinks were removed and some refreshments were served. At this time, Liu Bei should still be struggling with what excuse he would use to express his intentions.

Zhang Fei ate and drank in silence, not listening to anything outside the window, and only drank his own wine.

Zhang Liang got up and took the teacup to the side, and walked to the middle, "I heard that the people in Xuzhou moved out of the city one after another, and there were even rumors that the city was massacred. I wonder if it is true?"

As soon as this matter was mentioned, Cao Cao was full of murderous intent, "It is true that Cao and Tao Inspector Tao of Xuzhou have revenge for killing their father, and this must be reported."

Zhang Liang clearly stated his position again and again, but now he was speaking for an outsider. Cao Cao's face darkened, but he didn't point out anything directly.

"Maybe the massacre of the city was just a momentary pleasure, Cao Sikong said something just now and Liang very much agrees."

Zhang Liang kept focusing on Cao Cao, and at the same time adjusted how he should advise him based on his subtle reactions.

It's just that he doesn't know the similarities and differences between the two monarchs who are his subjects.

"What?"

Cao Cao was very excited to be warned by Liu Hou once in his lifetime, but his face was still very serious, and he had to hold his own expression.

And don't deliberately express your dissatisfaction and resentment for killing your father.

Come on, come on, he's listening.

Cao Cao thought Zhang Liang was distracted at that moment, but he just didn't want to talk.

"Talents, Xuzhou has outstanding people, and the common people pass through various states and counties. How will they spread the word? There is an old saying that three people become tigers. So what are rumors? Cao Sikong should understand that the harm outweighs the benefits."

Some words have been heard too much, whether they are rumors or not, they have been engraved in my heart.

"It's just fame. If Cao really cares about these things, then he will be thinking who is Cao's thief, and the world will not be able to kill him clean!"

Cao Cao didn't think too much about it, in the first confrontation between the two before a major event, they were so vain.

After a sudden turn, Zhang Liang hesitated, and then said: "Reputation is the cornerstone of attracting talents, and their wandering around will definitely affect all states and counties."

Cao Cao was able to promote talents, but if they were all talented but not virtuous, it would be a bigger disaster.

"The Shaofu knows that Lv Bu's adviser is Chen Gongtai."

Cao Cao was a little tempted, but Zhang Liang himself was able to help, so the conversation was worthwhile.

"Chen Gong!"

Zhang Liang thought that Chen Gong was dissatisfied with Cao Cao's actions, and that Lu Bu was in Xudu, so he would be able to change jobs. Maybe the two are really destined for each other!

Chen Gong is from Yanzhou, and Cao Cao was betrayed, so he must be very vigilant at this time.

Life and death can indeed shock people's hearts, but it is not really convincing, but fearful, but Cao Cao doesn't care.

Regarding the matter of reputation, outsiders say a few words, he will not take it to heart, but if his own people also say it, it is another matter.

"Instead of letting them all flee to the enemy's hands, why not just destroy the fun and save time and effort."

Cao Cao didn't hide his murderous spirit in front of Zhang Liang at all, and if he couldn't use it for himself, they didn't even have a chance to fly.

It never bloomed, who would know what kind of talented person he killed.

"What's more, Cao has never known who is a talented person. The opinion of Shaofu alone can't prove anything!"

The two confronted each other, and the idlers retreated. Liu Bei did not dare to show his existence at this time.

Cao Cao never left this opportunity for Liu Bei, and his prey was always Zhang Liang.

As long as Zhang Liang himself is willing to produce evidence and Cao Cao believes in Zhang Liang's vision, the talents cultivated by Zhang Liang will be in Cao Cao's pocket sooner or later as long as they stay in Xudu.

In this way, Zhang Liang doesn't need to worry about others' words hurting others at all, there are very legitimate reasons to accept people as disciples, right?

"Then, if Liang can prove that his words are true, will Cao Sikong take back the military order to massacre the city?"

Under Cao Cao's various expectations, Zhang Liang said what he most wanted to hear, and thought he had picked up a big bargain.

Both of them were making their own calculations in their hearts, and it was still unclear who would win and who would win.

"This statement is not false!"

Afraid that Zhang Liang would go back on his word, Cao Cao didn't speak very well, but he still asked to confirm.

"Feixu." Under Cao Cao's eager eyes again, Zhang Liang nodded again.

At this time, Cao Cao's face doesn't have the majesty before. If he didn't take into account his image, he really wanted to jump up and down to express his excitement beyond words, "It's a deal."

Liu Bei, who was a tool person throughout the whole process, had a cracked smile on his face at this time to echo the atmosphere.

Zhang Fei didn't want Liu to be left out in the cold, and was about to make a scene when Liu Bei stopped him.

"Big brother!"

"Wait until they finish."

Cao Cao got down from his seat, and wanted to reach out to grab Zhang Liang's hand, but Zhang Liang avoided it without giving any face.

Frowning, he looked at Cao Cao, who seemed to be fawning on him, and asked, "I don't know what else Cao Sikong has to do?"

Cao Cao stared blankly at the hand that hadn't been pulled, and then said some very appropriate arrangements, "Stay, the Shaofu knows those talented people well? Or are you still in Xuzhou, and the Shaofu needs soldiers to open the way when he resigns?" ?”

"Liu..."

Listening to Liu Bei who wanted to doze off, he suddenly felt that he was being talked about again, so he cheered up and looked over here.

There is still no room for me to intervene, and I am a little disappointed, as if I have nothing to do with myself.

Zhang Liang didn't intend to hide anything, Liu Bei knew that it was his own ability to go to visit and recruit talents, and the Zhuge family was not in Zhang Liang's calculations.

"The Zhuge family in Langya, after all, they are a powerful family. If they want to move to Xuzhou, they have more worries than the people who can move directly. They should still take a wait-and-see attitude at present."

Zhuge family, Zhang Liang mentioned this name, and Cao Cao searched for news about them in his mind.

Cao Cao really didn't pay much attention to this point, so he looked a little dazed!

Inexplicably, Xun Yu, who recommended talents, was much more obedient than Zhang Liang, who was threatening and luring him to help him now.

Get rid of all kinds of absurd thoughts in your head and focus on the business.

Some worried that Zhang Liang would run into trouble along the way, so Cao Cao still planned to solve all his problems along the way by himself.

"It's a long way to go to Langya County. The Shaofu needs soldiers and horses to clear the way. After all, there are still some rioting refugees."

Zhang Liang is human now, but when they met for the first time, Cao Cao didn't dare to study the twists and turns inside, it was really frightening to think carefully!

"No need, Liang can go alone, but Liang himself is not sure whether he can bring him to Xuzhou."

This is what Zhang Liang is worried about. Why should he send his heirs to Xudu thousands of miles away.

There is no reason to throw away the fat in front of him. He is afraid that Zhang Liang will give up this opportunity. Cao Cao hastily added that he can handle everything.

Xuzhou has never been taken seriously, let alone Langya County.

"Thank you."

Cao Cao's method, Zhang Liang has considered it now, no one would dare to disobey under the power, if Zhang Liang did not suppress him, he should have sent someone to arrest him by now.

After sending Zhang Liang out of the tent to rest, Cao Cao remembered that there were still two people in the room.

Liu Bei could still sit still, but if the impatient Zhang Fei hadn't been ordered to stop by Liu Bei's eyes every time he wanted to get up, how could it be Cao Cao and Zhang Liang's turn to finish talking.

After thinking about the previous situation, Cao Cao understood why Zhang Fei was impatient.

After Zhang Liang came out of the tent, a person walked in front of him, "Young Mansion is with me, he should have been waiting for a long time for Feng Xiao."

Xun You waited outside the camp after finishing a bunch of things in his hands. He didn't expect that after a few people chatted, more than half an hour had passed.

"Gongda!" Zhang Liang was very surprised why Xun You was here?

He followed Xun You and approached Guo Jia's camp with him.

The aroma of wine could be smelled from all the way, Zhang Liang did not see the wine jar after entering, and the wine gourd around Guo Jia's waist was also missing.

Zhang Liang didn't say anything, he just knelt down and waited for Guo Jia and Xun You to move.

"I don't know what the Shaofu's next plan is..." Go back to Xudu or stay in the barracks and go back to the court with them.

The bet between the two did not involve any secrets. Xun You asked Zhang Liang and repeated it once, "Tomorrow I will go to Langya County."

"Langya County?"

Xun You didn't quite understand. When he looked at Guo Jia, he shook his head too.

"Liang Tong Cao Sikong emphasized the importance of talents. If there are really great talents, he is willing to withdraw the military order to massacre the city."

There is not much concealment, Cao Cao himself may show off to them one day, and he can grasp his talents without any effort.

It seems that Cao Cao himself got the advantage, but for some reason, Guo Jia was aggrieved for Zhang Liang, and wanted to beat Cao Cao very much.

In his impression, Zhang Liang shouldn't have suffered a lot, and was still helping to cultivate talents after being sold out.

"Zizhang is unwilling, after all Jia promised you, it should be Jia who persuaded Sikong."

In fact, Cao Cao knew their situation well, especially after explaining the admonition to massacre the city, he dismissed Guo Jia, who had just finished a lot of his own affairs.

"No need."

This is exactly what Zhang Liang wanted. From outsiders' point of view, Cao Cao took advantage of it.

But it is precisely because of the existence of Cao Cao that Zhang Liang can justifiably recruit those talents.

"?"

Guo Jia didn't quite understand Zhang Liang's thinking, but sometimes when he thought about problems, he was not as fast as Zhang Liang, and everyone would suffer, but Zhang Liang definitely wouldn't.

Thinking of it this way, Guo Jia felt much more at ease.

"Zhuge, what a great talent, why don't we know about it?"

Xun You didn't think it should be, and there was no news at all.

"If the truth comes out, what will happen to Cao Sikong?" Will they still escape?

"What about before?"

"He's still a child."

"It's just a child, how does the Shaofu know that he has great talent?"

The two circled around, as if they would return to the original point of the topic.

Zhang Liang just smiled and said nothing, as long as he is a good teacher.

Xun You didn't know why Cao Cao trusted Zhang Liang so much. He was too confident to take such a risk when he was still a child.

Although he has a lot of strength that has never been revealed, a big man is a strong man in all aspects.

This topic entangled both Xun You and Guo Jia, I hope these two people can bring them surprises!

What Zhang Liang was more worried about was whether the Zhuge clan would let him go, and Cao Cao's previous style might have touched their bottom line.

It's up to God, he has to take into account all the mistakes that will happen, and it's a big deal if it's a waste of time to get a talent.
