Su Yi said that Zhang Xiu wanted to surrender, and then he said that Zhang Xiu wanted to rebel.
Even though he was a talented actor, he couldn't figure out what was going on and was a little confused.
"Whether or not Zhang Xiu will submit to Sikong as he said is still unknown. Why should I worry too much?”
Xi Zhicai comforted himself and did not care too much, bidding farewell and leaving.
"My father-in-law's butler is not an ordinary person.”
Su Yi looked at Xi Zhicai's back and nodded slightly.
At this moment, a system announcement sounded in his mind.
"Ding! You have triggered a mission to live in seclusion. Host, please choose a place to live in seclusion.”
Ye County, Jinyang, Moling.
Three cities appeared in his mind.
Jinyang has fallen to the southern Xiongnu, Xiongnu people burning, killing and looting, Jinyang is not a place to live in seclusion.
Sun Ce crossed the river to attack Jiangdong, and Moling was the first to bear the brunt of the attack. It was also a place of trouble.
As for Ye County, although it was close to Wan City, it was still within Cao Cao's territory.
"Even if Cao Cao loses to Zhang Xiu, the flames of war shouldn't reach Ye County.”
Su Yi chose a place to live in seclusion.
"Ding…location selected, seclusion time of two months.”
"The reward for success is unknown. There is no penalty for failure.”
Su Yi could not help but look forward to what kind of reward he would receive if he succeeded in seclusion again.
"Young Master, we've earned close to 1800 gold from this wood and medicinal herbs business.”
Diao Chan appeared behind him with an account book in her hands, her eyes filled with joy.
Su Yi could not be bothered to flip through the account book. He waved his hand and said,"Chan 'er, You Ping, pack your luggage and head to Ye County immediately.”
The two of them were stunned.
"Li Heng, why are we going to Ye County?" Zhou Tai asked.”
"To earn money, of course."
Su Yi smiled playfully.
"Earn money?"
Zhou Tai's eyes were blank." How?" he asked.”
Su Yi said indifferently,"Immediately purchase a large amount of grain and rice and transport them all to Ye County to stock up. Just wait to earn a lot of money."”
"Ye County?"
" Ye County is close to Wan City," Zhou Tai said." I heard that Sikong Cao plans to attack Zhang Xiu of Wan City in the south. Are you planning to sell grain to Sikong Cao?"”
"What else can I do?”
Su Yi sneered and asked.
Zhou Tai was enlightened." I heard that Sikong Cao has already prepared enough food for the southern expedition. I'm afraid he won't be interested in our food."”
"Don't worry."
"Cao Cao will definitely be defeated by Zhang Xiu. When the time comes, we will lose all our rations and retreat to Ye County. Our rations will be timely!"”
As soon as he said that.
Zhou Tai and Diao Chan's expressions changed.
"I've heard that Sikong Cao is a god-like soldier. This southern expedition has sufficient troops and food. Can Zhang Xiu defeat Sikong Cao?”
Even Diao Chan, who didn't understand military strategy, knew who was stronger and who was weaker.
"Yes, Li Heng."
" Alright." Zhou Tai nodded in agreement." The grain price is expensive now. If we don't sell it, we'll have to cough up the money we earned earlier."”
"What, you don't believe me?"
Su Yi stared at the two of them and said.
Diao Chan's beautiful face shook, and she immediately nodded heavily.""Young Master has always predicted things like a god. Chan 'er believes you, so I'll go buy food now.”
" Alright," Zhou Tai said." I believe you. Let's just buy food!"”
…
Seven days later.
Under Zhou Tai's protection, Su Yi brought tens of thousands of stones of grain from Xu City to Ye County.
When they arrived at Ye County, Su Yi bought a house in the south of the city and began to live in seclusion for two months.
At the same time.
Cao Cao led 30,000 elite soldiers south and headed straight for Wan City.
Cao Cao's army went south. Nanyang was shaken and Jingxiang was shaken.
On the third day of the first month, Cao Cao attacked Bowang City without shedding a single drop of blood.
This city is no more than fifty miles from Wancheng.
In the main hall of the county government.
Cao Cao and his generals discussed the strategy of capturing Wancheng.
"Report-"
"Sikong, Zhang Xiu has sent a letter.”
The Tiger Guards rushed in and handed over a letter.
Looking at the letter, Cao Cao's eyes flickered as he suddenly had a premonition.
"Could it be that he was right…"
He was slightly absent-minded, then waved his hand and shouted,"Read it out!"
The Tiger Guards opened the letter and read it out in front of everyone.
A letter of surrender!
It was a letter of surrender!
In the letter, Zhang Xiu declared that he was willing to submit to the Imperial Court!
The hall immediately exploded into a commotion, and everyone was pleasantly surprised.
Cao Cao's body trembled as he looked at Xi Zhicai.
At this moment, the word "shock" surged in the eyes of the actor.
"Su Yi was actually right. This person really has divine foresight!”
The two of them sighed in their hearts.
Cao Cao suppressed his emotions and snatched the letter. After reading it over and over again, he was sure that Zhang Xiu really wanted to surrender.
"This son-in-law is mine!"
Cao Cao was in a good mood and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
The news of Zhang Xiu's surrender quickly spread throughout the entire army, and the Cao army was filled with joy and excitement.
On the same day.
Cao Cao then led his army south to Wancheng.
As expected, Zhang Xiu opened the city gates and surrendered, and personally entered the camp to meet Cao Cao.
At this moment, Zhang Xiu had 7,000 elite soldiers under his command. Most of them were Xiliang citizens, and they followed Zhang Xiu's orders.
In order to appease the 7,000 Western Liang soldiers, Cao Cao naturally rewarded Zhang Xiu heavily and ordered him to continue commanding the 7,000 troops.
…
A month later, in Wancheng County.
"In recent days, Cao Cao has repeatedly summoned the generals and schools of the various battalions and has generously rewarded them. Now that the generals in the camp mention Cao Cao, all of them are filled with gratitude.”
"Young General, Cao Cao is clearly trying to win the hearts of the people and poach you.”
Hu Che 'er said with a solemn expression.
On the main seat, Zhang Xiu's face was gloomy as he secretly clenched his fists.
Hu Che 'er continued," I've also heard that Cao Cao has the intention of taking Madam Zou in. If this succeeds, our Zhang Family Army will really become the Cao Family Army."”
"There's actually such a thing?"
Zhang Xiu's expression changed, and he couldn't help but become nervous.
Madam Zou was the widow of her uncle, Zhang Ji. The Zhang Family Army had always respected her.
Even after Zhang Ji died, it was Madam Zou who made the decision and the Zhang Family Army accepted him as the new leader.
Cao Cao wanted to take in the Zou family, this was clearly to weaken his control over the Zhang Family Army and take away his military power!
"Jia Wenhe!"
Zhang Xiu angrily glared at the white-haired scholar and complained,"You were the one who advised me to surrender to Cao Cao, but now Cao Aman wants to seize my military power. What do you think we should do?”
The white-haired scholar was Jia Xu.
His gaze was cold as he slowly stroked his white beard and remained silent for a long time.
After sighing softly, Jia Xu said in a deep voice,"If that's the case, then General, let's rebel and catch Cao Mengde off guard!”
P.S. It's the eighth update on the first day.
