Chapter 281

Early in the morning, Zhang Xiu went to Huang Yueying's yard to visit her. Now that Huang Yueying is pregnant and has her first child, it's not easy. So when Zhang Xiu is at home, she should care more.

After sitting in Huang Yueying's yard for a while, Zhang Xiu got up and left, and went to the study to deal with official business.

Busy, do not feel the passage of time.

In the twinkling of an eye, near noon.

When Zhang Xiu was going to lunch, a soldier reported that Wang Yue wanted to see her.

Wang Yue is in charge of the royal guards and is responsible for inquiring about information from all over the country. After Zhang Xiu set up six departments, he called Jia Xu, Li Ru and others, introduced Wang Yue to the public in front of them, and promoted Wang Yue to general Huben.

In addition, Zhang Xiu also specially asked Liu Ba to allocate money to help Wang Yue install spies in various places so as to inquire about the news.

Only when money opens the way, can it be easy to infiltrate and pry for information.

Wang Yue is very busy now.

It's not easy to install spies.

It takes a certain amount of time for Wang Yue to infiltrate and lurk. During this period, many things can be smoothly pushed forward. It is Wang Yue who, relying on his many years of contacts, constantly finds out some Rangers, and makes many Rangers work for him, so that he has established his current contacts and power.

The present of the royal guards.

Zhang Xiu knows about the expansion of the royal guards and agrees with Wang Yue's practice. She hopes that Wang Yue will continue to expand his strength and infiltrate all over the country as soon as possible.

The royal guards don't need combat power.

Just intelligence.

The wider the contacts, the more favorable it will be for the royal guards.

When Wang Yue asks for a meeting, Zhang Xiu puts off going to lunch and arranges for Wang Yue to be invited.

Soon, Wang Yue entered the study.

"I've met my Lord in my humble position as king Yue."

Wang Yue saluted respectfully. Although his temples were white, his face was red now. Because of the busy time, he felt that he had a place to use, and he was very energetic.

"What's the matter?" Zhang Xiu asked

Wang Yue looked a little nervous and reported: "report back to my Lord, I got the news that Chencang County fell and was captured by Ma Teng and Han Sui. Today, Ma Teng and Han then occupy Chencang County, and have not taken any further action for the time being. "

With that, Wang Yue handed the letter.

Zhang Xiu smell speech, face suddenly cold down.

His eyes are full of fierce colors.

He won Jingzhao and youfufeng, but didn't go to Ma Teng and Han Sui for trouble. Unexpectedly, the two men started first and united to win Chencang county.

Chencang county is the county to the west of youfufeng and the main road to Liangzhou. Ma Teng and Han Sui are both living in Liangzhou, but they suddenly enter Chencang, which is quite unexpected.

Zhang Xiu opened the letter and read it carefully.

It was mentioned in the letter that the news of the killing of Li Xi and Guo Si spread to Xiliang, and Han Sui and Ma Teng felt sorry for their own situation, so they first attacked Chencang and captured Chencang county.

More information, such as the respective strength of Han Sui and Ma Teng, and the layout of the situation, is all unknown.

Zhang Xiu said: "Wang Yue, make every effort to mobilize the royal guards, and arrange all the royal guards under your command to Chencang county to infiltrate. Be sure to find out the situation of Ma Teng and Han Sui. Their troops, their personnel deployment, and their counselors, and so on. "

"I'll do it

Wang Yue got the order and solemnly responded.

Wang Yue left in a hurry. Zhang Xiu thought about Chencang County in her heart and immediately said, "come

A soldier enters and stands with a bow.

Zhang xiudao: "inform Jia Xu, Li Ru, Pang Tong, Xu Shu, Li Yan and Liu Ba to come to discuss the matter immediately."

"Here it is

The soldier had to order him to turn around and inform him.

Zhang Xiu also thought that it was time to have lunch near noon. I'm afraid everyone who came here was hungry. He immediately arranged for the cook to prepare more meals and send them directly to the study.

When Jia Xu, Li Ru and others arrived, the cook also brought food.

Zhang Xiu looked around and said, "time is pressing. If you don't have lunch at noon, you can talk while eating."

They didn't move their chopsticks for the time being. They all looked at Zhang Xiu with a puzzled look on their faces.

What happened again?

Zhang Xiu said that time is pressing, which shows that the situation is not simple.

Zhang Xiu said quickly: "just received the news from Chencang County, Ma Teng and Han then sent troops to attack Chencang county. Today's Chencang county has fallen into the hands of Ma Teng and Han Sui. "

When they heard the words, they all changed color.

No one thought that Ma Teng and Han Sui had the courage.

At this time, he stroked the tiger's whiskers.

Zhang Xiu said, "why do you think Han Sui and Ma Teng raided Chencang county?"

People are thinking.

Chencang county is a small county, but its geographical location is important, and it is a strategic place in the west of Guanzhong. With Chencang County, there is a bridgehead to attack Liangzhou. In the same way, if Ma Teng and Han Sui mastered Chencang County, Zhang Xiu's belly and back would be very dangerous.That's the same thing.

At the moment, no one has an appetite, because if we don't deal with Ma Teng and Han Sui well, Zhang Xiu will be quite passive if she wants to base herself on Guanzhong.

"Dong! Dong

Knock on the door, and sounded outside the study.

Zhang Xiu said, "come in!"

The door was pushed open with a creak, and a soldier entered quickly. He reported: "general, there is a man outside the house named Kuai Yue, who claims to be the envoy of Mu Liubiao in Jingzhou. He wants to see the Lord."

"Please

Zhang Xiu gave an order.

At the moment Zhang Xiu is frowning, just out of Chen Cang, Liu Biao sent Kuai more and more. Fortunately, Kuai Yue is here. This is her own person. Through Kuai Yue, Zhang Xiu can understand Liu Biao's intention in Jingzhou.

After all, Kuai Yue superficially belongs to Liu Biao, but in fact, he is Zhang Xiu's person.

Soon, Kuai Yue entered the study and bowed to Zhang Xiu.

Zhang Xiu asked straight to the point: "different degrees, you come to Chang'an, why?"

Kuai Yue said: "in reply to the general, Liu Biao sent me to Chang'an because he thought that the general had taken Chang'an. He hoped that the general could fulfill his previous agreement and help him take Yuzhang county."

Zhang Xiu snorted: "Liu Biao is eager. As soon as I'm based in Chang'an, he's going to seize the Yuzhang."

Kuai Yue smiles and says, "if the general is going to attack Yuzhang, he can attack Guo and take the whole Jingzhou. After all, the officials in Jingzhou were born and used to be officials of Pang family, Huang family and Kuai family. As long as the general Nanxi, Jingzhou can change the flag, Liu Biao issued any order, it is useless

Today's Jingzhou is Liu Biao's.

In fact, all the major families are loyal to Zhang Xiu and have been tied up with her.

Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "I can't go south now. Just after receiving the news, Ma Teng and Han Sui joined hands to conquer Chencang County, threatening the security of Chang'an. I must first recapture Chen Cang, defeat the coalition forces of Ma Teng and Han Sui, and stabilize the situation. "

Zhang Xiu took out the letter and handed it to Kuai Yue to read it.

Kuai Yue was a little disappointed after reading it, but he solemnly said, "don't worry, general. I'll go south and return to Xiangyang. I'll tell Liu Biao the situation. I'll keep Liu Biao stable and not let Liu Biao make trouble in the rear."

Kuai Yue was disappointed.

He hoped that Zhang Xiu would go south to Jingzhou earlier, and the Kuai family would turn to the stage from the dark.

It's not going to stay dormant.

However, Kuai Yue is also an insightful person. He knows the situation in Guanzhong, and knows that Chencang is an important town in Guanzhong, so he can't allow any loss. Otherwise, Zhang Xiu's rear area will never be peaceful.

Zhang xiudao said: "it's hard work."

Kuai Yue shook his head, he did not delay time, quickly left.

He came and went in a hurry.

Zhang Xiu had no time to see Kuai Yue off. After seeing him off, she looked at the crowd again and asked, "what do you think of the situation in Chencang county?"

Jia Xu bowed his hand and solemnly said, "Lord, after considering his humble position, he thinks that there are two possibilities for Han Sui and Ma Teng to raid Chencang county."

Zhang Xiu said: "which two possibilities?"
