    After Yuan Shu was ambushed, he was devastated and gathered his remaining troops, leaving only 50,000 men in the end.

    "Liu Xuande is a despicable villain, sooner or later he will beheaded!" Yuan Shu said angrily.

    This time, he lost 30,000 troops and lost face in the Yangzhou Army. Yuan Shu felt the darkness of the world.  And all of this is Liu Bei's fault.

    Who would have thought that a force that relies on others would suddenly launch an attack?

    What's more, Yuan Shu was so confident that he was accompanied by the Yangzhou Army on this expedition.

    For some reasons, Yuan Shu was defeated and had to retreat and rest.

    The losses of the Yangzhou Army were not small.

    Do you blame Yuan Shu?

    No, the Yangzhou Army has no such tradition.

    Dian Wei reviewed himself severely and expressed his shortcomings in writing. How difficult it was for a big boss.

    However, Dian Wei did it.

    "My lord has given us the army, and the soldiers have given their lives to us. I am sorry for my lord, and I am sorry for the soldiers."

    War is never a casual matter.

    After the review, Dian Wei humbly asked Zhao Yun for advice and said: "Zilong, do you think we are not suitable for commanding an army?"

    To be honest, Dian Wei is okay as a vanguard, but leading the army alone is still a bit inferior.

    "When evil comes, don't blame yourself, let alone lose confidence. Generals also grow up through various mistakes." Zhao Yun said sincerely.

    "But why doesn't my brother make mistakes?" Dian Wei asked.

    "Ahem, my lord is different. He is a born handsome man." Zhao Yundao said.

    "But so are you." Dian Wei sighed.

    Zhao Yun was embarrassed. Now he understood a little bit what his lord meant, which was to cultivate talented people who could stand alone.

    Looking at the entire Yangzhou Army, there are not many who can do this.  Lu Bu, Dian Wei and Xu Chu are all more brave than clever. Gao Shun has good abilities, but they are still a little bit interesting.

    Taishi Ci and Zhang Liao are the most reassuring, followed by Huang Zhong and Zhang He.

    But when it comes to trust, Liu Ke still relies more on Zhao Yun and Dian Wei.  Zhao Yun has grown up, but Dian Wei is still the same.

    After all, as Liu Ke¡¯s status rises, he has fewer and fewer opportunities to play, and his generals have more and more opportunities to perform.

    Therefore, Liu Ke planned to train Dian Wei.

    "Evil comes, you have to read more military books in the future, and don't live up to my lord's expectations of you." Zhao Yundao said.

    Under the pressure of Liu Ke, Dian Wei was no longer an illiterate man, but he was still far from being familiar with the art of war.

    "We know that we will never let up." Dian Wei said.

    Zhao Yun breathed a sigh of relief, but there was still one thing on his mind.  Since Yuan Shu's defeat, Zhang Xiu's attitude has been unclear, which has made Zhao Yun very embarrassed.

    Is this kind of thing still waiting for a price?

    If this is really the case, Zhao Yun would be very disappointed with his senior brother.

    Cao Cao¡¯s envoy Zhong Yao came to Wancheng secretly, which was also the reason for Zhang Xiu¡¯s silence.

    Cao Cao¡¯s condition was very simple and rude, that is, to directly confer Zhang Xiu as the governor of Yuzhou.

    The current conditions between the two parties are as follows:

    "Joining Yangzhou, abandoning the territory that I have worked so hard to manage now, my future is uncertain.

    Join Cao Cao's army and become the governor of Yuzhou. He will be in charge of Yuzhou and will get Cao Cao's support to expel other forces in Yuzhou.

    "Chief Zhang needs to think clearly. Yangzhou has its own system and has been perfected in all aspects. What else can you do if you join the army but serve under Zhao Yun? Moreover, you are from Dong Zhuo's army, so you will inevitably be ostracized in Yangzhou.  "Zhong Yao persuaded.

    "Humph, Hua Xiong was also born in Dong Zhuojun, why haven't you seen him being squeezed out?" Zhang Xiu snorted coldly. He absolutely did not believe these nonsense.

    However, the conditions offered by Cao Cao were indeed very generous, and Zhang Xiu could not refuse.

    Now that Cao Cao's army cannot enter Yuzhou, it can only support Wancheng indefinitely and compete with Yuan Shu for hegemony.

    "What Governor Zhang said is wrong. The main battle corps is the core of Dongyang Marquis. Hua Xiong became the governor of Xuzhou, isn't he being squeezed out?" Zhong Yao said persistently.

    "When did guarding a state and controlling a hundred thousand defenders become so worthless? Can Cao Cao offer such conditions?" Zhang Xiu said.

    "Hua Xiong lived and died for the Marquis of Dongyang, Zhang Ci?Not the same.  Did Yangzhou offer any conditions for you to seek refuge?  "Zhong Yao continued.

    This is also the reason why Zhang Xiu did not agree to Zhao Yun's recruitment. The princes are fighting for hegemony and can go back on their verbal promises, let alone no promises at all?

    Now Zhang Xiu is not alone, he has a group of people who want to eat.

    Cao Cao was so generous that he suddenly got rid of the position of governor of Yuzhou.

    "Now the general trend of the world is all towards Dongyang Hou, and the princes are avoiding three points. However, how does it compare to Dong Taishi? The world is ultimately the world of the people. Dongyang Hou seems to have expanded his territory, but he has lost allies." Zhong Yao analyzed.  .

    Zhang Xiu was thoughtful.

    "The most glorious time for the Marquis of Dongyang is not now, but then. At that time, the general He Jin did not dare to be an enemy of the Marquis of Dongyang, because Liu Yu from Youzhou, Liu Yan from Yizhou, Liu Biao from Jingzhou, Liu Dai from Yanzhou, and Tao Qian from Xuzhou  They are all his allies, but now if you look at it, besides Yuan Shu, who is like a joke, who else speaks for him?" Zhong Yao said.

    "Since ancient times, there has been a lot of help for those who have gained the right, but few for those who have lost the right. Behind the strength of Dongyang Marquis is weakness." Zhong Yao said.

    "We'll discuss this later!" Zhang Xiu is not a fool, how could he be persuaded so easily.

    Lei Xu, who originally agreed to seek refuge in Yangzhou, also hesitated. Dongyang Marquis was indeed a choice, but Cao Cao seemed to be good too.  Cao Cao controls the justice of the court, no, the position of governor is like a cabbage.

    "Lord, you can't hesitate on this matter, otherwise both sides will not be pleased," Lei Xu said.

    Could Zhang Xiu not know?

    "What can you do?" Zhang Xiu asked, his mind was in a state of confusion at the moment.

    "My lord, you can test Zhao Zilong's tone and see what conditions Yangzhou will offer." Lei Xu said.

    "This is a good idea." Zhang Xiu said happily, so he prepared drinks in Wancheng to entertain Zhao Yun.

    Cao Cao's army spies who were closely watching Zhang Xiu's movements quickly reported the matter to Zhong Yao. Zhong Yao was so scheming, how could he not see Zhang Xiu's thoughts?

    "I have two things that I need you to do here. If they are done beautifully, you will be the hero." Zhong Yao said to his friend.

    "Just ask!" the confidant said excitedly.

    "First, spread the news that we have arrived in Wancheng. Second, bribe two gangsters to assassinate Zhao Yun." Zhong Yao said.

    "But how could a gangster be Zhao Yun's opponent?" the confidant asked in confusion.

    "You don't need to understand, just do it." Zhong Yao said.

    Since Zhang Xiu is hesitant, help him make a decision.  Zhong Yao believes that Zhang Xiu cannot escape his grasp, and greedy people are the easiest to manipulate.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
