***************************************
"In the third year of the reign of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, Situ Wang Yun, his uncle Dong Cheng, Sikong Cai Yong and other important officials of the empire gathered in Yingchuan, raised the imperial flag, and issued the emperor's edict to the princes in all directions. He ordered the princes of the world to rush to King Qin of Yingchuan.
An audience with His Majesty the Emperor of the Han Dynasty. The Emperor of the Han Dynasty, who had disappeared for more than a year after the war in Chang'an, finally appeared again. All the princes in the world were shocked when they heard about it and behaved in different ways."
"Yuan Shao of Hebei Province refused to obey the imperial edict and ignored the emperor's orders. Cao Cao of Yanzhou, Yuan Shu of Runan, Liu Biao of Jingzhou, Lu Bu of Xuzhou, and Qin Yang of Hanzhong were ordered to send troops. Cao Cao of Yanzhou took advantage of the terrain and took the lead in arriving at Yingchuan to meet the emperor and followed the emperor's order.
I issued an edict again to order all the Qin kings and princes to retreat. The princes had no choice but to return in defeat."
"Only Yuan Shu in Runan did not want to see Cao Cao's power, so he set up an ambush outside Yingchuan with the intention of seizing the emperor. Cao Cao's army was in chaos after a sudden attack. Situ Wang Yun and Sikong Cai Yong died in the chaos. Cao Cao was furious.
, mobilized reinforcements in Xuchang and fought to the death with Yuan Shu. In the end, he even used his royal spirit to frighten the enemy. Yuan Shu returned in hatred and sent a message to the world, claiming that Cao Cao was holding the emperor hostage to order the princes. The army and people throughout Runan were at odds with Cao's thieves. Cao Cao
After obtaining the emperor, he established the capital of the Han Empire in Xuchang, which was called Xudu. It was changed to Jian'an in the Yuan Dynasty, and the emperor's order was issued to order the princes of the world." - "The Biography of the Three Kingdoms"
Hanzhong City, the residence of Prince Huangjin Ming.
Qin Yang looked at the imperial edict in front of him and snorted coldly: "Cao Cao is so treacherous that he actually sent me the edict of the Marquis of Hanzhong. What does this mean? Let me keep Hanzhong forever? Is it Hanzhong?
Do I still need him to seal this land?"
Xi Zhicai smiled and said: "This guy is clearly killing two birds with one stone. If Your Highness accepts this edict, it will be acknowledging the status of the emperor and Cao Cao's right to issue the emperor's orders. If you don't accept it, it will be disobedience."
He openly made enemies of the Han Empire and its princes. As for the latter, at least none of the princes in the world have the courage yet... How could Cao Cao not only successfully serve the emperor, but also possess the aura of a king?"
Qin Yang curled his lips and said: "It's a pity that this guy ran fast when we were in Luoyang. At that time, I already guessed that he should have a king's energy. It's just that Yuan Shao came to cause trouble at that time, and Cao Cao was slippery than a loach... Forget it.
, I accepted this edict. But what to do next? I don’t want to see Cao Cao so arrogant."
Guo Jia smiled slightly and said: "If Your Highness doesn't want Cao Cao to have a hard time, I have a plan..."
Qin Yang's eyes lit up and he said, "Tell me about it."
Guo Jia said: "Because of the matter of serving the emperor, Yuan Shu and Cao Cao met in battle. Although Cao Cao won the battle in the end, Yuan Shu still had hundreds of thousands of troops and his foundation was intact. And he and Cao Cao were bound to become enemies. It can be expected that,
There will be a battle between the two of them."
"Then you mean to ask Yuan Shu to send troops to attack Cao Cao's Yanzhou? I'm afraid this is not easy. Even if they are really stupid enough to openly defy the emperor's order to send troops to attack Cao Cao, they have always had a rift with our army, so how can they listen?
What about our words?" Qin Yang hesitated.
"This is not difficult, as long as we, the Yellow Turban Army, don't come forward and find an eloquent wise man to come out and lobby," Guo Jia said with a smile.
"So, you should have already picked someone, right? Tell me who it is, and don't try to sell it to me."
Guo Jia chuckled, looked at Xi Zhi with a meaningful look and said: "Your Highness, you have met this person before. But in terms of relationships, I am afraid no one knows him better than Military Advisor Xi..."
"I've seen it too?" Qin Yang's heart moved, he looked at Guo Jia and then Xi Zhicai with suspicion, and murmured: "I said, do you want to recommend someone to me, but don't want to
To be honest? Am I, Qin Yang, the kind of person who is envious of talents? Tell me, who is this person?"
Xi Zhicai said: "To be fair to Your Highness, I would not have such worries if I were to recommend someone else. But this person has repeatedly opposed Your Highness. If Your Highness did not have the strength he has now before he started the army, I would naturally recommend him directly.
His Highness recommended it, but now His Highness already controls Hanzhong, Xiliang controls Luoyang, and Chang'an, both of which are in Guanzhong. If I recommend it again now, I'm afraid Your Highness..."
"Oh shit, are you an old drunkard trying to provoke me? Don't say that I, Qin Yang, am just a prince now. Even if I really achieve hegemony, it won't be like what you imagine. Stop talking nonsense and tell me quickly.
!" Qin Yang smiled and punched Xi Zhicai, but his heart became more and more itchy.
Xi Zhicai laughed and said slowly: "Your Highness, don't blame me. I just mentioned the vilification first. This person was the initiator who destroyed the food and fodder of Your Highness's army in Xiangcheng. He was in Hanzhong to make plans for Bo Cai and other rebels to besiege Your Highness."
The one..."
"Are you talking about Jia Xu?!" Qin Yang's eyes lit up and he jumped up. He had already wanted to win over Jia Xu, not to mention that Jia Xu had caused him a few "little troubles".
Qin Yang would not change his original intention even if Jia Xu was his enemy in person. He was a legendary figure known as the "No. 1 Poison Master of the Three Kingdoms".
Xi Zhicai nodded and said: "Yes, it is Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe. In my opinion, if we are to persuade Yuan Shu to meet with Cao Cao, and to allow our Yellow Turban Army to break through the current bottleneck, it must be this person.
Does Your Highness still remember what happened when I first arrived in Hanzhong?"
Qin Yang nodded happily and said: "Of course I remember. I remember that you entrusted Jia Xu to help me persuade Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao to stop the 450,000 troops of the three princes. But since then, you have not mentioned Jia Xu's words.
Even if I asked you, you wouldn't say anything."
Xi Zhicai said: "That's because this guy had some unfinished business at that time and could not seek refuge with anyone. Now I heard that he is fine, so I took the initiative to recommend him to His Highness..."
Xi Zhicai pondered for a moment and said with deep meaning: "Your Highness, although I recommend Jia Xu to Your Highness, as for whether he will actually serve Your Highness, I'm afraid I can't control it."
Qin Yang's heart moved and he smiled: "What do you mean by this? Do you think I am really that kind of villain with rat belly and chicken intestines?"
"That's not true. I have always known that His Highness will sincerely recruit talents whenever he encounters them, no matter whether they are enemies or not. But this is not the case with Jia Xu. He is cautious, especially when it comes to choosing his master.
.If His Highness is really serious, I’m afraid you need to go and invite him yourself.”
Qin Yang smiled and said: "What's so difficult about this? I, Qin Yang, am not a eldest daughter, and I can't leave the door without taking two steps. Where is he? Just show him the way and I will invite him. If he doesn't come once, I will invite him.
Twice, if he doesn't come twice, I will invite him three times. Anyway, I will definitely invite him."
Xi Zhicai and Guo Jia looked at each other, then smiled and said: "If His Highness can really do this, Jia Xu will definitely be able to join me under the Yellow Turban banner and serve His Highness. But where he is now..."
Qin Yang hesitated when he saw Xi Zhicai, and couldn't help but said anxiously: "You should tell me quickly, is it very far? It doesn't matter, it's just a matter of traveling for a few more days."
Xi Zhicai shook his head and said: "It's not far, but it's also very close to our Hanzhong... Jia Xu is currently living in Wancheng..."
"Wancheng?!" Qin Yang's eyes twitched. Wancheng was Zhang Xiu's territory and now Zhang Xiu has surrendered to Cao Cao. Although he has a good relationship with Cao Cao on the surface, his relationship with Zhang Xiu is not that good. Cao Cao definitely doesn't.
He would be angry because Zhang Xiu offered him his own head. On the contrary, this might be something Cao Cao would laugh out of in his dreams, right?!
"Well, he is in Wancheng now. Moreover, he is a guest at the palace of Zhang Xiu's city lord. According to my estimation, it was his idea that Zhang Xiu defected to Cao Cao..." Xi Zhicai nodded seriously.
"In Zhang Xiu's house...he asked Zhang Xiu to defect to Cao Cao?!" Qin Yang muttered to himself a little absentmindedly. If this is the case, if he goes to invite Jia Xu himself, wouldn't it mean delivering food to his door?
Xi Zhicai didn't seem to see Qin Yang's expression and continued: "That's all I know. I wonder when His Highness will leave? I'm afraid Guo Jia and I won't be able to accompany His Highness to Wancheng.
After all, Wancheng is Cao Cao's territory, I advise His Highness to bring fewer people..."
"Wait!" Qin Yang said hurriedly: "When did I say I was going?! Are you...are you trying to trick me?"
Seeing Qin Yang's unkind expression, Guo Jia smiled and said: "Your Highness, don't get me wrong, everything we said is true. If we want to accomplish this, it must be Jia Xu. And to invite him, it must be His Highness himself."
Doesn’t His Highness have such a famous saying? You can’t let go of your children…what’s the point?”
Qin Yang said with a sad face: "How can I not bear to leave my child? I just want to throw myself into the wolf's den..."
