Jia Xu's words made Liu Mang's heart tremble. Looking at Jia Xu's eyes that were shining in the night, Liu Mang felt uneasy. The corner of his mouth twitched. He thought maliciously, "This old fox Jia Xu can't be an old stick, right? Old glass! " If that was the case, even if Liu Mang didn't want Jia Xu, even if Liu Mang would receive Jia Xu's revenge, he would still kill him!
Fortunately, Jia Xu's continued explanation made Liu Mang feel relieved. "I, Jia Xu, have been paying attention to Lü Bu for a long time. My previous evaluation of him was just a pile of bones in a grave! Even if people can change, it is difficult to change so much. There must be someone beside him adding fuel to the fire. Lü Bu's civil officials are only Chen Gong, and his generals are Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, and others. If he could change, he would have done it long ago. But to this extent, "Among the generals, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun were already under Lü Bu's command in Bing Province. Although Chen Gong came later, they had worked together for decades. Therefore, it was impossible for these people to change. If they could change, Chen Gong wouldn't have sighed and even thought of betraying Lü Bu and relying on Yuan Shu.
"Family? Madam Yan, Madam Ren, Madam Cao? Madam Yan is known to be virtuous and is the first wife of the Lü Family. That is impossible. Madam Cao is the daughter of Cao Bao from Xuzhou. She is also a woman without her own opinions. That is also impossible. Madam Ren is a possibility! " Liu Mang didn't expect Jia Xu to have considered the problem to this extent. He even included Lü Bu's family members.
Jia Xu had met Madam Ren once. Even an old fox like Jia Xu couldn't help but be shocked by Madam Ren's beauty. Wang Yun used her to plot against Dong Zhuo, but she also used Lü Bu to plot against Wang Yun. Madam Ren was the famous Diao Chan in history. Although she was Wang Yun's adopted daughter, she was actually a female servant raised by Wang Yun. If there was no Dong Zhuo and no Lü Bu, then Diao Chan's ending would be to become Wang Yun's concubine. That would be the best. The worst ending would be to exchange female servants among the scholar-officials and taste different flavors. Finally, she would grow old and die of grief. But now, Diao Chan had a tall, rich, and handsome husband. This was really not simple. However, even Madam Ren couldn't change Lü Bu this much. After all, Diao Chan was just a woman. She couldn't understand what a wise master was.
She only knew about the mutual deception between women and children. She only knew about the matters of her own family. She didn't think too much. After all, a strong woman like Wu Zetian was very rare in this world.
Looking around, the only thing that puzzled Jia Xu was the sudden appearance of the King Of Shu, Liu Mang. Although Jia Xu didn't know what happened, he knew the result. When Liu Mang first appeared, Lü Bu broke out of the encirclement and escaped from Xiapi. This really surprised Jia Xu. One must know that Lü Bu was the one who came up with the plan to flood Xiapi. It could be said that there was no way for Lü Bu to survive. However, Lü Bu still managed to escape. He relied on Cao Cao's carelessness to break out of the encirclement and almost killed Lao Cao.
Jia Xu thought that it was Chen Gong's plan and didn't think much about it. After that, Liu Mang appeared in Langye County. Not only did he escape, but he also killed Lao Cao's two generals, Cao Chun and Li Dian. This made Jia Xu a little concerned.
After that, in the battle of Bagong Mountain, Liu Mang finally showed his talent. In order to sow discord between Liu Mang and Lü Bu, Lao Cao gave Liu Mang the title of King Of Shu. After that, in the battle of Wancheng city, Liu Mang was brought to the forefront and resisted the attack of Jiangdong's Little Conqueror. He also caused Sun Ce's 100,000 troops to be annihilated. This really made Liu Mang famous. After that, there was the recruitment order and the battle of Yangzhou, which made Jia Xu see the existence of a wise lord.
It also confirmed Jia Xu's guess that the person who changed Lü Bu's mind was the King Of Shu.
Jia Xu came this time to join Liu Mang, but unfortunately, Jia Xu found that he might have joined the wrong person. It could be said that he overestimated the King Of Shu. According to the current situation, it was impossible for Jia Xu to join Liu Mang's Army.
"Mr. Wen He is willing to come to Yangzhou's Shouchun to join Father-in-law because of this King. This King is truly moved. However, Mr. Wen He has yet to say who the other two wise lords are!" Liu Mang wanted to know who Jia Xu was interested in.
"The other two wise lords, one is Jiangdong's Little Conqueror, Sun Ce. In order to inherit his father, Sun Jian's legacy, he worked for Yuan Shu. Later on, he left Yuan Shu and relied on the Imperial Jade Seal to exchange for three thousand tigers and wolves to unify Jiangdong. This person is now only twenty-six years old. When he was in the prime of his life, he was ambitious. The generals and strategists under his command were incomparably strong. This person is not worthy of being a wise lord! " Jia Xu saw that Liu Mang wanted to know, but he did not mind. He wanted to let Liu Mang know that in this world, Yangzhou was not the only place that could accommodate Jia Xu.
"Worthy!" Liu Mang nodded without hesitation. Jiangdong's Sun Ce. Although Liu Mang and Sun Ce were enemies of the Lvbu's Army, Liu Mang was not stingy with his praise. With only three thousand troops, Sun Ce was able to sweep through Jiangdong. Now, Jiangdong was wholeheartedly expanding its territory. If not for the Lvbu's Army, Yangzhou might have been Jiangdong's by now. Moreover, Jiangdong had Zhang Shao, Zhou Yu, and the others. They were like tigers that had grown wings. Therefore, it was not wrong to call him a wise lord. "Then what about the second?" “
"The second is Cao Cao, Cao Mengde. Xu Shao and Xu Zijiang once evaluated him as a capable minister in times of peace." Jia Xu's conclusion was not out of Liu Mang's expectations. However, Liu Mang knew that this was because after a thousand years, Cao Cao did not unify the world, but he left behind a large family property for Cao Wei. If Sun Ce did not die young, he would have occupied the Yangtze River and divided the world.
But Jia Xu relied on the vision of the people of this era to distinguish who was the wise lord. This kind of person was the world's hero.
"Mr. Wen He only relied on Xu Zijiang's evaluation to make a conclusion!" Liu Mang had nothing to say. Although Xu Shao was famous, many arrogant people still looked down on Xu Shao's evaluation. Liu Mang did not believe that Jia Xu determined Cao Cao based on Xu Shao's evaluation.
"Of course not! Xu Du, Cao Cao, controls Yan Province, Xu Province, Zhili Province, and Yu Province. "
"If that is the case, then Hebei's Yuan Shao should also be the wise lord!" Jia Xu said that whoever had the biggest territory would be the wise lord. Liu Mang immediately used Yuan Shao to refute him. Yuan Shao occupied Hebei's You Province, Bing Province, Ji Province, and Qing Province. He could be considered the biggest warlord.
"Yuan Shao is an arrogant person. He cannot be the wise lord! Cao Cao's strategizing and strategizing, whipping the universe, grasping the magic of Shen and Shang. He should be the miraculous strategy of Han and Bai. He was given the materials by the government. He was hypocritical and did not bear grudges. In the end, he was able to control the emperor's plans and subdue the Hong Xing. He can be said to be an extraordinary person, a hero who transcends the world ~ "
Jia Xu's evaluation of Cao Cao was really high. Indeed, Cao Cao was worthy of being called an ambitious and ruthless person. Although he was suspicious, he had great willpower. He actually imitated the ancient ways and used Legalism to govern a country. He also had great achievements in military strategy. In the end, Lao Cao even published a book called Meng De's New Book. It was a book that was not inferior to Sun Tzu's Art of War. It was the result of Cao Cao's military career, summarizing and innovating military theories from his predecessors. The famous military books in China's history. Before Meng De's New Book, there were Sun Tzu's Art of War, Sun Bin's Art of War, and Yin Talismans. After Meng De's New Book, other than the 24 chapters of Zhuge Liang's Garden of Generals, there were no new famous works for hundreds of years. It was only until Qi Jiguang's Ji Xiao New Book that China's modern military theory reached a new peak. Meng De's New Book had 14 chapters. 13 of them were military strategies, and the last one was political strategy. Unfortunately, it was ruined by Zhang Song's strategy in the end.
Cao Cao was not arrogant. He was courteous to the wise and did not have Yuan Shao's arrogance. He also knew that talent was the most important thing. He also made the best use of talents. His family was not like Yuan Shao, where several sons fought for the throne. The Cao family was peaceful. Although Lao Cao used severe punishments in troubled times, he also gathered the people's hearts. This was because only with severe punishments could the people live a stable life and not be completely exploited by the nobles.
"Now that Cao Cao has defeated Guandu and Yuan Shao is seriously ill, sweeping Hebei is just around the corner. What should we do if such a person is not a wise ruler?"
"Yes!" Liu Mang also nodded. To be honest, Liu Mang also wanted to seek refuge with Lao Cao. Unfortunately, because Cao Chun, Liu Mang's younger brother, Lao Cao, died, he almost died under Liu Mang's plan. In addition, Boss Lu treated him well and even became his father-in-law, so Liu Mang did not seek refuge with Lao Cao.
"Your Highness King Of Shu, Jia Xu has finished speaking. Can you let us go? Jia Xu will definitely repay you in the future. "Jia Xu cupped his fist towards Liu Mang. He had already dismissed the idea of joining Liu Mang's army. Now, if he was not going to Jiangdong, he would go to Xudu. Before he left, he did not want to fall out with Liu Mang. The last sentence was a temptation and also a threat. The poisonous snake also began to spit out its tongue to announce that Jia Xu was not to be trifled with.
"Haha, haha!" After hearing Jia Xu's words, Liu Mang did not let the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry move aside. Instead, he got closer to Jia Xu. "If Mr. Wenhe wants to seek refuge with these two people, then this king will not move aside!"
"Hanyang Liu, what do you want?!" Jia Xu thought that Liu Mang did not want him to leave peacefully. Jia Xu's eyes were filled with malice. If Liu Mang dared to stop him, then in the future, Jia Xu would return the favor tenfold.
"Listening to Mr. Wenhe's words is really better than studying for ten years! Cao Cao is an ambitious and ruthless person! When Wang Huanyu, Jiangdong's Sun Ce, and Bofu become the overlords, they will divide the world. These two people are the heroes of the age! Mr. Wenhe's vision is really sharp! " Liu Mang first praised Jia Xu, then he sneered, "However, I, Liu Mang, do not know how Mr. Jia Xu will die after seeking refuge with them!"
