Guan Yu provided cover for Zhou Yu in the Xinye area. In addition to the intercepted baggage of Cao's army, most of the military supplies consumed were transported by Jingnan counties, mainly Lingling County, and Guiyang County supported Jiangxia County.
The water transport fleet formed by Lan Tian and Gan Ning played a great role in this battle.
The grain ship was passing through Jiangxia on its way to Xinye to deliver the message. At this time, Liu Bei had just seen off a guest from the north. He was Zhang Song from Yizhou.
Cao Cao went south to capture Jingzhou. Liu Zhang, the herdsman of Yizhou, was horrified when he heard the news, so he sent Zhang Song to Xudu to pay tribute and make good friends.
When Zhang Song arrived in Xudu, Cao Cao was still in Jingzhou and had not yet returned, so he stayed for many days.
Zhang Song was short in stature and had a dissolute personality, and was not popular in the prime minister's house. Yang Xiu, the treasurer's secretary, had observed him many times and found that he was quite talented and learned, and had the ability to speak eloquently.
After several chats and the two of them getting acquainted, Zhang Song was suspicious of Yang Xiu's official position. After all, he was the son of Taiwei Yang Biao, and he should not be relegated to the prime minister's house due to his family background. "I have heard for a long time that Dezu has been wearing hairpins for generations. Why not assist the emperor in the temple and become a minor official in the prime minister's house?"
Yang Xiu felt pain in his heart when he was poked. He secretly thought that Zhang Song didn't know good or bad, and everyone inside and outside the Prime Minister's Palace avoided you. Only I received you kindly. He looked ashamed and said with difficulty: "Although Xiu lives in the lower house, the prime minister entrusted him with military and political money and food." , I can still listen to the teachings sooner or later and benefit a lot, so I take up this post.”
Zhang Song laughed hoarsely and said: "Prime Minister Cao's writings do not understand the teachings of Confucius and Mencius, and his military skills are not as good as those of Sun and Wu. How can Dezu benefit a lot?"
"My little brother in the corner of the public residence, how do you know that the Prime Minister is a great talent?" After Yang Xiu finished speaking, he took out a policy scroll and handed it to Zhang Song. "The prime minister imitated the "Thirteen Chapters of Sun Tzu" based on the past and the present. Can the book be passed down to future generations?"
Zhang Song saw that the scroll was titled "The New Book of Meng De" and he read it carefully. The bamboo slips were all about how to use military force.
In order to refute Yang Xiu, he memorized it word for word and said it was written by an unknown person during the Warring States Period. A three-foot-old boy in Shu could recite it secretly.
Seeing that Yang Xiu didn't believe it, Zhang Song recited it from beginning to end, without a single word difference in the whole article.
Yang Xiu's eyes widened, thinking that this piece of pine was indeed powerful, but he did not give in, and then took out several scrolls from a wooden box.
"You have a photographic memory, why don't you take a look at this again?"
Zhang Song took the scroll, which was titled "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", but who is this Lao Jin? Cao Mengde’s pseudonym?
He opened the book with disdain and was immediately attracted by the stories in the book, including the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan, Pretty Huang Rong, Silly Guo Jing, the Five Wonders of the Central Plains, and the Ultimate Kung Fu...
After reading three or five volumes, that sense of anticipation arose spontaneously, "Is there more to come?"
Yang Xiu had a sly smile on his face, "Can Zi Qiao still recite it?"
"Uh...it's a small trick. Why does Dezu remember it so much? How can he recite such a long scroll?" Zhang Song waved his hand and smiled bitterly.
"This book has fifty volumes, Zi Qiao can feast his eyes on it." Yang Xiu pointed to the wooden box and said.
Zhang Song was overjoyed and thought that it would be okay to wait a little longer for a day like this.
When Cao Cao was defeated in Jingzhou and returned to Xudu, Yang Xiu introduced Zhang Song to Cao Cao and suggested that Cao Cao use it for conquest.
Cao Cao didn't like Zhang Song's ugly appearance and vulgar speech. Seeing this, Yang Xiu told Zhang Song about Meng De's new book.
After hearing this, Cao Cao said to himself: "Could it be that the ancients have a secret conspiracy with me?"
After Cao Cao finished speaking, he sent his followers to burn the books that Zhang Song had read. Yang Xiu couldn't listen to his advice, so he could only follow and help burn the books.
At night, Cao Cao needed to read to help him sleep, so he sent Xu Chu to the study to retrieve "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
After a while, Xu Chu returned empty-handed, "My lord, you asked Master Yang to burn the books, and he burned "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" together..."
Cao Cao was half lying on the couch, but when he heard Xu Chu's words, he immediately sat up and said in surprise: "I asked him to burn "The New Book of Meng De", why is this guy burning my "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"?"
"The Lord asked him to burn the book Zhang Song had read. He also read "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"..."
"Shuzi, how dare you do this!" Cao Cao was furious and needed to vent his anger.
Taiwei Yang Biao was still alive, and Yang Xiu was smart and smart. Cao Cao couldn't take it out on him, so Zhang Song, who was short and insignificant, became the scapegoat.
Cao Cao shouted sternly: "This book is my treasure. How can Zhang Song's canine eyes be worthy of reading it? Tomorrow I will beat Xu Du with sticks."
"Wei." Xu Chu cupped his fists.
Early the next morning, Zhang Song was still having sweet dreams in the posthouse.
With Yang Xiu helping him, Cao Cao will definitely accept him. When the time comes, he will donate Xichuan as a means of advancement, and he will be a high official and well-paid from now on.
With a bang, the door was kicked open.
Zhang Song was immediately pulled out of his winter bed, "I am Prime Minister Cao's distinguished guest, how dare you be so presumptuous?"
The soldiers didn't listen at all, and then they beat him with fists, feet and sticks until Zhang Song's nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and he kept begging for mercy.
Xu Chu put his hands on his hips and snorted coldly: "How dare you, a dog from Sichuan, bark here? Pack your bags and get out of Xudu. You are not allowed to come back again for the rest of your life."
"What's my crime?" Zhang Song's thin body curled up in a ball.
"Ugly." Xu Chu spat out the word disdainfully.
Under the urging of Xu Chusuwei, Zhang Song left Xudu with disheveled hair and disheveled clothes. The people in the morning market on the street laughed extremely hard.
Zhang Song felt like a rat crossing the street. After all, he was also here to give gifts to Yizhou Biejia. How could he end up like this?
Thinking of the previous humiliation, he was extremely angry. He heard that Cao Cao was defeated by Sun and Liu in Chibi, and the enemy of his enemy is his friend. After leaving Xudu, he bought horses on the outskirts of the city and headed straight to the border of Nanyang, intending to return to Chengdu by water.
Whether to choose Sun or Liu was something Zhang Song struggled with along the way.
A few days later, Zhang Song passed by Xinye, where he was preparing to supply supplies. However, he was captured by Guan Yu's soldiers as a spy, and was then brought to Xu Shu.
Zhang Song was worried about suffering physical pain, so he reported himself to the family.
After a brief conversation, Xu Shu discovered that Zhang Song was an important figure in Kong Ming's Longzhong campaign to capture Xichuan, so he treated him very politely.
Zhang Song was flattered and said politely: "I have long heard that Liu Shijun treated his scholars with kindness, and now that I have met Yuan Zhi, I can also understand one or two of them."
This time KenshUfa M Zhang Si. Xu Shu suggested: "The battle is still fierce in Xiangyang. Ziqiao wants to return to Yizhou and transfer the water route to Xiakou. Why not go and see my lord?"
"Okay..." Zhang Song agreed.
Xu Shu asked Zhao Yun to accompany Zhang Song from Danshui to Hanshui to Jiangxia.
Zhao Yun's majestic appearance and eight-foot height made Zhang Song envious. When the two were on the boat, Zhang Song deliberately raised the topic: "I think the general's sword is extraordinary. I wonder who made it?"
Control the big one and control the owl. "It was not made by Yun Tuo, but was obtained by killing a general in Changbanpo's pursuit of Cao Cao. This green sword is extremely sharp. Biejia really has a unique vision."
Zhang Song originally wanted to talk to people with a sword, but he didn't expect that the sword really had a history. He had a good impression of the general who defeated Cao Cao.
"General Zilong is a really brave general. How many generals do Liu Shijun have under his command?" Zhang Song asked.
"There are quite a lot..." Zhao Yun calculated that in addition to Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Gan Ning and the newly famous Huang Zhong, these are all fierce generals.
Zhang Song was stunned when he heard this. Did I stab the general?
