Although Zhou Yu was forced to stay in Jinyang by Lu Ning and asked Sun Ce to write a divorce letter, he still did not surrender to Lu Ning and was unwilling to serve Lu Ning. He always felt that Lu Ning's methods were too despicable. Lu Ning didn't care about these things and still enthusiastically entertained Zhou Yu. He could do whatever he wanted, and as long as he didn't leave Jinyang City. Zhou Yu had no good place to go. Even if he ran to Jiangdong, wouldn't it give Lu Ning an excuse to destroy Sun Ce.

Is it? If you go to any other prince's subordinates, it would be better to be under Lu Ning! Although Zhou Yu was relieved by Sun Ce, he finally won a lot of conditions for Sun Ce, especially persuaded Lu Ning to agree to sell a large number of weapons and equipment to Sun Ce. Of course, advanced weapons and equipment such as warships, crossbows, catapulted carts and crossbows are impossible to sell. No matter what Zhou Yu said, it would be useless. Of course, the weapons and equipment that could be sold were eliminated by Lu Ning's army.

Lu Ning would never be so stupid as to raise a stone to shoot himself in the foot. Advanced weapons, equipment, technology, and equipment would not be sold to other princes. The compromise was to let Zhang Liao's army withdraw from Niuzhu and Hulin Second Wharf. After Zhang Liao's army retreated, it exploded all the fortifications on the two wharfs and kidnapped all the people around it, leaving only an empty shell and no practical significance. Of course, in order to get Zhang Liao's army to withdraw from Niuzhu and Hulin Second Wharf, Sun Ce still released a lot of blood. How could Lu Ning retreat without any reward? Unless his head was filled with water.

The peaceful days didn't last a few days, and Guo Jia and Tian Chou came to visit together. After hearing this, Lu Ning shook his head and knew that there would definitely be no good things for these two people to come together. Somewhere new situations happened.

As soon as the two entered the house, before they could sit down, they heard Tian Chou say, "Lord, Cao Cao is going to attack Xuzhou again!"

After hearing this, Lu Ning was slightly stunned. It was wrong. It should be attacking Wancheng. Why did the historical process change? What does this old Cao mean? "Zi Tai, are you not mistaken? Didn't Cao Cao attack Wancheng? Why would he attack Xuzhou?"

Tian Chou and Guo Jia were stunned when they heard this. What did the lord say? Where did Cao Cao want to attack, should we notify us in advance? What did he say? Tian Chou looked up at Lu Ning in confusion, and then said: "Lord, Cao Cao's attack on Wancheng is a feint, and his real intention is to attack Xuzhou! The troops attacking Wancheng are only 5,000 soldiers and horses, and attacking Xuzhou is the main force."

Lu Ning still didn't understand. Old Cao had a problem, so why not send troops to the second route? Isn't it more likely to win if he specializes in the first route? Is it necessary to send troops to attack Wancheng when attacking Xuzhou. Is it necessary to attack Wancheng? Lu Ning looked at Guo Jia and Tian Chou with a puzzled look on his face and opened his eyes wide.

Seeing that Lu Ning had not figured out what was going on, Guo Jia immediately explained: "Lord, this is the case. Cao Cao was worried that when he attacked Xuzhou, our army would take the lead in capturing Wancheng, so Cao Cao sent Xiahou Yuan to lead 5,000 troops to attack Wancheng, which was actually telling us that Wancheng was decided so that our army would not have to intervene anymore. After all, we had a trade agreement with Cao Cao and had not turned against each other yet."

After hearing this, Lu Ning laughed and shook his head and said, "This old Cao is really, I'm not afraid of eating too much and suffocating my belly."

Tian Chou also smiled slightly and took over the words, "Lord, Cao Cao is helpless. If our army is allowed to occupy Wancheng again, he will be surrounded by my cavalry. The entire defense line in his jurisdiction cannot be deployed. Unless there are absolutely many troops, they will not be able to defend at all."

Lu Ning sneered, Lao Cao, you think too perfectly, how could you do everything according to your wishes? Are you looking for death? "Feng Xiao, Zitai, Xiahou Yuan's five thousand soldiers will go but never return. Lao Cao will suffer a great loss this time. Zhang Xiu, Wancheng, has 50,000 soldiers and horses, and is basically the Western Liang Iron Cavalry, so his strength should not be underestimated. There is a poisonous soldier Jia Xu around him, so how can he take advantage? Even if Lao Cao takes action personally, he may not be able to take it down Wancheng."

Lu Ning thought to himself that in history, Cao Cao led a large army to attack Wancheng and also suffered losses. Not only did he lose the lives of Dian Wei and Cao Ang, but he also lost many soldiers. Finally, Zhang Xiu took the initiative to surrender to Cao Cao under Jia Xu's persuasion, otherwise Lao Cao would not know how many soldiers he would lose.

Guo Jia heard that Jia Xu was called a poisonous warrior in Lu Ning. This was the first time he heard about it. He didn't know how he got the title. He didn't know much about this person, nor did he hear that this person had made any major schemes and his reputation was not very good. Why would the lord call him a poisonous warrior? Could this person really have a vicious plan? Or is there any statement about labor insurance?

Before Guo Jia could ask the question in his heart, Tian Chou next to him said to Lu Ning: "Master, Jia Xu has only heard of this very strategy before. I don't know what level he is. Why would the lord call him a poison warrior? What kind of person is he?"

Jia Xu, Jia Wenhe, and Wuwei people were one of the top strategists in the Three Kingdoms period. His abilities were of the same level as Guo Jia, Pang Tong, Zhou Yu, Sima Yi, Zhuge Liang, etc. Their level was basically no different. Their only depends on who would make mistakes first. According to historical records, Jia Xu was extremely intelligent, and he used tricks and used tricks to make mistakes without any consequences. He only considered success or failure. He was unable to defend himself. As long as he got his plan, he had no chance to turn around. Every plan was to kill the other party. What was commendable is that Jia Xu never formed gangs, did not interact with others, and did not engage in party disputes. He was only responsible to the master. He used timing to tell the master once every plan or suggestion, and never said the second time. Whether to use the plan was decided by the master, and he only took the plan. Jia Xu was highly valued by Cao Cao and was always the main strategist around Cao Cao. Finally, he became the Grand Marshal.

After a while, Lu Ning came back from deep thoughts and nodded apologetically to Guo Jia and Tian Chou, and then said: "Jia Xu, whose name is Wenhe, never cares about the consequences when using strategies and strategies. He only pursues success. Even if it is a plan that harms the truth, he dares to take it out. This person's plan is vicious and insidious, and it is hard to defend against. The person who was trapped in the trap has no chance of turning around. He killed the other party. Therefore, this person is known as a poisonous man. Jia Xu's ability should be at the same level as Feng Xiao, and they are both top-notch strategists and are difficult to deal with. At present, Lao Cao's subordinates are probably only Xun Yu and Xun You and the two can still bear it, but their abilities are still a little inferior to Jia Xu. Of course, Jia Xu cannot compare with Xun Yu in internal affairs. Xun Yu's internal affairs ability should be one of the best talents in the world. If strategy is added, Xun Yu is definitely one of the best people in the world."

Guo Jia and Tian Chou were both surprised after hearing Lu Ning's words. If this is the case, you should be careful when you meet such a ruthless person. Once you use a trick, it will be extremely vicious. It is best not to fight such a person.

Tian Chou thought for a while, looked up at Lu Ning, and said hesitantly: "Lord, since Jia Wenhe has such a high ability, why doesn't the lord send people to recruit? Such talents are possessed by others, which is a threat to our army!"

After hearing this, Lu Ning smiled bitterly and sighed, "Zi Tai, I also want to have such talents, and even want to recruit talents from all over the world, but this is unrealistic. These great people have to go there in person, and it may not be possible to get it done if they go there. Just like Zhou Yu, he was forced to lock him in Jinyang, and he is not used by me. Difficult! Difficult! Difficult!"

After hearing this, Guo Jia also felt it was difficult to deal with. After all, they were all top-notch strategists. If there was something that was easy to get, it would take a lot of time and energy, otherwise it would be difficult to deal with. "Lord, although you can't invite them in person, you can't let Jia Xu easily get it. You'd better find a way to get Zhengping to Wancheng. On the one hand, it's recruiting Jia Wenhe, and on the other hand, it's also a way to get rid of Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao. It's better to let Zhang Xiu surrender to us, so that we can accept Wancheng without spending one soldier. Even if we can't conquer Jia Xu, we can't handle Zhang Xiu, and we will do something for Cao Cao."

After hearing this, Tian Chou smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Fengxiao is right. It is beneficial to let Zhengping go to Wancheng, and at least it can cause some trouble for Cao Cao. Of course, if you can handle Jia Wenhe or ask Zhang Xiu to surrender to our army, it will be the best result. We will not lose anyway."

After hearing this, Lu Ning thought about it and thought that it would be great if he could really handle Jia Xu. After all, if he had Jia Xu, he would be equipped with a very good strategist when he sent troops overseas to conquer the country in the future, which would be very beneficial for the war. Besides, even if he was idle, it would be better than letting others have it, at least it would not cause any trouble to himself.

Lu Ning nodded and said, "Let me do what you said, notify Zhengping and let him go to Wancheng."

As the topic changed, Guo Jia smiled and said, "Lord, Cao Cao wants to attack Xuzhou. Should we make some achievements in Xuzhou? We cannot let Cao Cao take Xuzhou easily. Even if he wins, he will have to make more blood."

After hearing this, Lu Ning laughed, looked up at Guo Jia, and then asked in confusion: "Fengxiao, what are you good plans? Don't hide it and hold it anymore, just say it out. You won't just let Lao Cao lose some troops, right?"

Guo Jia was stunned. How could you know that I had something to say? I secretly admired my wiseness in my heart. "My lord, I want to give Cao Cao a pot to remove the firewood."

After hearing this, Tian Chou immediately said, "People?"

Guo Jia smiled slightly and said, "Yes, it's the people of Xuzhou. We'll trick more people of Xuzhou into our jurisdiction and let Cao Cao get an empty city. Of course, we can't get all the people of Xuzhou. I think as long as we move well, it should be fine to get hundreds of thousands."

After hearing this, Tian Chou laughed and looked at Guo Jia, then said, "Fengxiao, your plan is also very despicable! He turned Cao Cao to attack Xuzhou and slaughtered several small counties along the way. Now the people of Xuzhou are extremely angry with Cao Cao. As long as they hear that Cao Cao came to attack Xuzhou again, and as long as they spread some rumors, we will gain a lot."
