Chapter 716: Jia Xu's Plan
A few days later, Li Jue reached a secret agreement with Cao Cao to attack Zhang Xiu.
Zhang Yu's spies got the news in Luoyang and urgently sent the information to Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu made a decisive decision and immediately released the news.
As soon as the news was made public, several princes came to contact Zhang Yu one after another, first to find out who bought the equipment, and second because they wanted to buy some themselves.
At this time, many princes realized that they were fooled by Zhang Yu again.
But if they understand it, what can they do? If they don't trust each other, they can only prepare for the worst outcome.
Zhang Yu was happy, and many princes made up their minds to buy Zhang Yu's weapons and equipment.
Whether you need it or not, anyway, if you buy a little more, you can equip the army, and the goods must be limited, and others will have less.
In other words, this is indeed the truth, but Zhang Yu's family has a lot of inventory, more than 300,000 sets. If it wasn't for the recent expansion of the army and the addition of supplements from the battle, there would probably be more.
Several major princes divided up Zhang Yu's hundreds of thousands of sets of weapon preparations, and Jiangdong didn't have enough stocks, so they directly shipped a batch back from Youzhou.
In this way, Zhang Yu has money, and the Australian immigration plan can be accelerated.
"Haha, before the cannon fires, it's already worth ten thousand taels of gold." After receiving a few orders, Zhang Yu became happy.
I have been worrying about money before, and then I have everything after planning an action.
Although the weapons and equipment are sold cheaply this time, they are quite profitable. Armaments are to make money.
To Zhang Yu's surprise, Yuan Shu bought the limited set of 20,000 sets of heavy armor.
"The price of this heavy armor hasn't been reduced at all. Can Yuan Shu afford 20,000 people?"
Zhang Yu naturally had reasons for doubts. He also spent a lot of time trying to get 50,000 heavy cavalry soldiers for Huang Zhong, and it took a long time to get enough.
In fact, it is not enough to make up enough at the beginning, and the investment in the later stage is also massive. The investment of a heavy armored soldier is at least three times that of other soldiers.
The consumption of heavy armor is too great.
However, these are not under Zhang Yu's control. It is said that there are many people under the rule of the princes, and it should be no problem to gather 20,000 people.
"Yuan Shu has always been a nice person. Although I often had misunderstandings with him, we were able to get over it in the end." Zhang Yu said with emotion.
Zhang Yu will be emotional because the profit of 20,000 sets of heavy armor is really high, which is several times that of other ordinary equipment.
There were several conflicts with Yuan Shu, and they had to fight, but they were able to make up in the end.
It's just that the price of this reconciliation is a bit high, not only many people died, but also a lot of money, and even the territory.
Not to mention these things, if Yuan Shu thinks about it, it is a grievance, and he is short of snot and tears.
Sun Ce didn't want to buy it at first, but he didn't want other people to buy too much, threatening him in the future.
Not long after, Cao Cao and Li Jue sent troops together.
It is said that at that time, Xun You went to Luoyang as an envoy to explain Zhang Yu's conspiracy to Li Jue.
If you want to break Zhang Yu's conspiracy, you must eliminate the surrounding enemies as soon as possible.
Xun You promised that if Zhang Xiuwan City was destroyed, it would belong to Li Jue, but they wanted other benefits, and Li Jue had to compensate Cao Cao and the others in other ways.
In this way, the two sides have reached an agreement, and they will start to act.
The two sides joined forces, and an army of 200,000 came to attack Zhang Xiu.
Zhang Xiu was also stubborn, not afraid of the opponent, and led a hundred thousand soldiers to fight them to the death in Wancheng.
Although Zhang Xiu had a fight with Zhang Yu, the loss was a bit big, but after Zhang Yu left, Zhang Xiu, who knew that strength was everything, immediately began to recruit and train soldiers and horses again.
Losing to Zhang Yu touched Zhang Xiu a lot. This time he personally trained soldiers and horses, which greatly improved the combat effectiveness of 100,000 soldiers and horses.
The two sides fought continuously, and this time Zhang Xiu completely obeyed Jia Xu's several times.
The two sides fought a few times, and Zhang Xiu relied on Wancheng's solid defenses to block the coalition forces.
Although Cao Cao and Li Jue teamed up, neither of them wanted to lose too much, and they both wanted the other side to contribute more.
Jia Xu took advantage of this to defuse several attacks.
Cao Cao went to find Li Jue in person, and made a statement about his strong relationship.
Wancheng is Li Jue's territory if it is conquered, if it cannot be conquered, then Li Jue will have nothing.
The two sides have talked, and each promises to attack with all its strength.
Sure enough, after Cao Cao reached a consensus with Li Jue, they all attacked with all their strength, which made it very difficult for Zhang Xiu.
Cao Cao will attack with all his strength, and naturally he has his own ideas. Zhang Yu is obviously targeting him, and Cao Cao can only break the situation through this method.
Cao Cao is surrounded by enemies, and if he can kill one, he counts as one.
"Wenhe, the enemy is attacking so fiercely, I'm afraid we won't last long." Zhang Xiu said.
After fighting for more than a month, Zhang Xiu had already lost more than 30,000 soldiers and horses. If the enemy besieged him for two more months, he might perish.
Jia Xu would not perish with Zhang Xiu, he stroked his beard and said, "So, I'm afraid we have to make a choice, choose one side to surrender."
"Surrender?" Zhang Xiu couldn't accept it. After all, he is now a prince. If he surrenders, he will be someone else's younger brother.
"Yes, taking advantage of the opportunity and value now, choose to surrender." Jia Xu said.
Zhang Xiu hesitated, but he knew in his heart that if he persisted, unless there was a miracle, he would not be able to win Cao Cao's cooperation with Li Jue.
Although Zhang Xiu understands, it is painful to make a decision.
Jia Xu understood human nature very well, so she didn't continue to persuade Zhang Xiu. She just found an opportunity to persuade Zhang Xiu when she couldn't hold on.
While Zhang Xiu was hesitating, Jia Xu stepped aside.
For the next two days, Zhang Xiu seemed to have changed his temper, and continued to personally command from the top of the city, fighting bravely against the enemy.
It seems to be venting, and it seems to be waiting for a miracle.
But the miracle did not happen, Cao Cao and Li Jue still attacked fiercely, and there was no change because of him.
Gradually, Zhang Xiu became desperate, and her own efforts were of no use.
Although I don't want to admit defeat, the reality is so cruel.
Two days later, the decadent Zhang Xiu approached Jia Xu and said, "Wenhe, is there really no other way?"
"Yes, but it is very risky and the consequences are unpredictable." Jia Xu said.
Originally Zhang Xiu was going to despair, if Jia Xu told him there was no other way, then he would choose to surrender.
In the end, Jia Xu told him that there was a way.
"any solution?"
"Persuade Li Jue to sneak attack Cao Cao with us." Jia Xu said directly without showing off.
Zhang Xiu fought for two consecutive days and was quite exhausted. His eyes brightened and he asked, "Is this possible?"
"The chances of success are great. Cao Cao is too powerful. Naturally, Li Jue will be afraid that Cao Cao will destroy us, and he will destroy him in turn. I believe Li Jue understands it too." Jia Xu said.
Zhang Xiu pondered for a while, the opportunity is great, but the risk is also great, if Li Jue disagrees or even deceives them, and the sneak attack can be successful and so on.
