I am not a counselor, I am trying to survive in the late Han Dynasty

Chapter 85 Going to Xuzhou?
On the first day of the first lunar month of the second year of Xingping, everyone on Liangshan was celebrating the New Year with each other and celebrating that they had survived this terrible winter.

Xu Shu and his men paid homage to their ancestors and the soldiers who died in the battle, and then celebrated the New Year with everyone.

A large amount of food was piled on the mountain, which made people feel safe. There was no need to scrimp on food and clothing, and everyone felt like they were dreaming.

The sky was bright and clear that day, as if the troubled times that had been gloomy for a long time had finally come to an end, and everything was gradually getting better.

But Xu Shu knew that the troubled times were only temporarily revealed. Although he had gained the absolute trust of Cao Ang and others this time, Cao's army's counselors must have discovered his problem. If he was not careful after that, Cao Lu would deal with him together. Compared with last winter, he had to be more cautious about his fate.

Especially when he wanted to develop his first territory, Taishan County, Xu Shu had to inquire about information in advance, and the main way he inquired was...

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh on, but you’re like a bastard.

Maggots, you, you, you, you are going to die by yourself, don’t take me with you, I really regret going up the mountain with you! "

Xu Shu is the person who knows Mr. Ai's method best.

He has recently been trying his best to obtain information from Mr. Ai. The basic method is to express his disappointment in Mr. Ai and doubts about his academic level.

Mr. Ai could also feel that Xu Shu was deceiving him, but as a time traveler and a powerful person with tens of millions of fans on various platforms in the future, Mr. Ai still couldn't bear to be despised by Xu Shu, and began to search his intestines and stomach to tell Zang Ba and others in detail deeds.

However, according to the information Mr. Ai has, Zang Ba is indeed mediocre and unpretentious. He is completely unworthy of the awe that everyone in Yanzhou has for him. They know nothing about his temperament and character. They can only simply speculate on this. He is a ranger thief with a rather violent personality.

However, Xu Shu still summarized two very useful pieces of information from Mr. Ai's limited knowledge.

First, Zang Ba once took refuge with Lu Bu, and then later with Cao Cao.

Second, according to Mr. Ai, Zang Ba’s most famous skill in later generations was actually Hengjiang...

This was obviously not in the north, but in the subsequent battle along the Yangtze River.

This shows that Zang Ba's learning ability and military training ability are quite good. It is indeed not something that ordinary people can do to train a group of landlubbers under him into warriors who can cross the river.

Mr. Ai has been very upset by Xu Shu recently. Seeing that Xu Shu still looked thoughtful after listening to the content he summarized from a bunch of games, he couldn't help but teased:
"My bastard, your former teammates were idols, Lu Bu, etc. They were still considered princes after all.

But why are you going back now? You don't want to join forces with Zang Ba, do you? "

Xu Shu laughed and said:
"Why not?
There are mountains everywhere in Taishan County, and I can’t control them right now.

It would also be a good thing if we invite Zang Ba here, let him take charge of the overall situation, and teach us the experience of being a bandit, so that we can dominate in the future! "

Xu Shu's master once said that when facing a strong enemy, one must always find a backer.

Xu Shu had been using Cheng Yu to take the blame before, but now he has been exposed. From now on, as long as Cao Cao's advisers are not fools, they will be secretly vigilant, and this trick will not work.

Needless to say, Lu Bu definitely wanted to skin Xu Shu right now.

With Zang Ba's ability and being a famous bandit, he should be tall, short, fat and thin just right for me to call him here.

They are all bandits, which makes sense.

"That's your mother!" Mr. Ai almost rolled his eyes after hearing this, "My dear, are you not so clear-headed?

You used to hang out with your idols, but now you've done this and invited Zang Ba to take charge of the overall situation?

They are all old bandits. They don't have any credibility in the first place. When they arrived, they tied you up without saying a word. What do you think you should do?
Besides, if you join an idol's family, it will bring you a lot of benefits. What can you do if you join Zang Ba?Taking you to practice? "

Xu Shu laughed and said:
"Don't he have a good relationship with Lu Bu?
Maybe I can ask him to help me propose marriage! "

"Say..." Mr. Ai was startled, but then he responded, "Are you okay? You beat Lu Bu like this, and you still want to marry Lu Bu's daughter?
Is there anything more ridiculous than this? "

Xu Shu looked at Mr. Ai with a smile, thinking that there were more ridiculous things in the world than this.

Zang Ba sits on the mountain and watches the fight between tigers, which is especially critical when Cao Cao and Lu Bu are severely weakened. How to win over him and how to have a good relationship with him is very crucial.

Xu Shu had already thought of all the plans ahead, and he was just missing an opportunity to get in touch with Zang Ba.

You can't just say that you want to give up Taishan County to Zang Ba without any friendship. This is not how you lie.

All of Xu Shu's recent calculations have been stuck here, so he can only argue with Mr. Ai when he is bored, and explain many details of the recent military training to Guan Hai and Cao Xing.

Just when he was helpless, Xu He came to report that Cao Jun had sent people up the mountain.

"Is it my elder brother?"

"No, it seems to be a child of the Li family."

Xu Shu hurriedly put on his clothes and went out, only to see a young man standing in the courtyard.

He is more than seven feet tall, wearing a coarse cloth military robe, with big eyes, thin eyebrows, pale face, blue lips, and a sickly appearance.

Seeing Xu Shu and Mr. Ai coming out, the young man immediately bowed down and kowtowed hard to Xu Shu. His sincere look surprised Xu Shu.

"What's next?"

"Master Xu Fu, I am Li Dian, whose courtesy name is Mancheng. I am a younger brother of Li Gongqi's clan. On Li Gongqi's order, I have come up to the mountain to be dispatched by Mr. Xu Fu!"

"Li...Li Dian!" Mr. Ai was so shocked that he couldn't help shouting.No, why is Li Dian here?

Is the idol going crazy?

Why give this person to maggot concubine as a younger brother?
Xu Shu was also a little surprised.

He had heard Mr. Ai talk about the difference between unparalleled generals and popular generals before. Those who can be called unparalleled generals are models that have been recorded in history and talked about by future generations. In Mr. Ai's description, Li Dian should be the same as Zhang Liao and others. It's equally outstanding, and it's the kind that can mow the lawn like no other.

Li Zheng had occasionally mentioned before that his younger brother was quite trusted by Cao Cao, so why did he come to Liangshan to be at his disposal?

When Li Dian saw that Xu Shu and Mr. Ai must have heard his name, he was overjoyed and explained the reason to Xu Shu.

It turns out that Li Dian had just joined the army during the Battle of Puyang and was only 17 years old after the New Year.

Li Zheng asked Li Dian to follow Cao Cao, firstly so that Li Dian could learn more combat techniques, and secondly, to show Cao Cao that the Li family in Jiyin was absolutely loyal to him.

But this loyalty has begun to loosen for some reasons. This time Li Zheng happened to show some of his previous promises to Xu Shu and expressed his willingness to give half of his troops to Xu Shu for deployment, and the commander of the army he chose was Mr. Ai said that Li Dian will definitely play a huge role in the future!
Li Zheng could tell that Xu Shu was not a real loyal member of the Cao family. This time he had a series of clever tricks and had gradually become a prince. If he bet on him, it would be better than going all the way.

Li Dian brought a thousand elite soldiers this time, all of whom were carefully selected warriors from the Li family.

Originally, Cao Cao would not have lost his mind and sent away a thousand-man iron army, but Xu Shu rescued Cao Ang and had a bet with Li Zheng. Secondly, Cao Cao's army was very tired now and had to farm the land quickly after the spring. , it is too wasteful to raise so many professional soldiers who do not cultivate the land but only eat.

So Cao Cao quickly accepted Li Zheng's proposal and asked Li Dian to look for Xu Shu.

This really made Xu Shu a little embarrassed.

Li Gongqi is also too down-to-earth. This is the result of not knowing how to use Ai animal and forcing it to be used.

Of course, the current Li Dian is far inferior to Li Jin, Li Qian and other elders of the Li family who fought against Lu Bu before. But in the future, even Ai Zhu will have heard of this person's name. I think he must have a good Taoist career and be worthy. Cultivate it well.

but……

Well.

Xu Shu glanced sideways and saw that Xue Lan had shrunk into a corner in fear.

Li Dian had brought so many people with him this time. If he yelled and the brothers stood side by side for revenge, each of them could knock Xue Lan loose with one punch.

Mr. Ai recovered from the shock and obviously realized this, and immediately said with a evil smile:
"Oh, it's a good time for you to come, Mancheng. Your family's great enemy Xue Lan was on the mountain!

It’s time to take revenge if you have a grudge and complain if you have a grudge!
You're welcome, beat this husband to death, don't give me any face. "

Xue Lan cried out in fright, and subconsciously wanted to escape, but her legs were already weak, not to mention that Liangshan was surrounded by water, so where could he escape?

Mr. Ai smiled gleefully, finally feeling disgusted.

Maggot has always kept Xue Lan, which will definitely be of great use in the future.

If I were to cause some damage to Maggot Shu, he would be so disgusted that he would not be able to sleep.

Hey hey hey, maggot concubine, you also have today, let me ask you what to do this time?
Xu Shu also frowned.

To be honest, Xue Lan still has a role. If nothing else, Cao Xing's concubine is still in Dongmin. If he kills Xue Lan, Cao Xing's concubine cannot be saved.

Moreover, Dian Wei learned how to read with Xue Lan recently, which seemed to be quite inspiring. It is always a good thing to have such a famous person to teach the soldiers under his command.

Well, this is difficult to do.

Li Dian seemed to see Xu Shu's worries. He smiled slightly and said with emotion:
"My brother told me before I left this time that I was here to take care of Mr. Xu's worries, not to make Mr. Xu worry.

Mr. Xu Fu has a bright future. Only by working together can we work together!Li Feng has already been enthroned. Such an old thief, huh, if he is useful to Mr. Xu, what's the harm in letting him survive for a few years! "

This time Xu Shu attacked Juye and killed Li Feng, and helped Li Zheng get rid of the traitors in his family, allowing him to explain to his family.

As long as it is good for the future of the Li family, Li Zheng can still endure Xue Lan's revenge. This can be regarded as repaying Xu Shu's previous kindness. At the same time, it will also make Xu Shu favor his family and treat Li Dian as one of his own.

Only then did Xu Shu let out a long sigh of relief, and Mr. Ai rolled his eyes, thinking that Li Zheng was really a filial son, and he wanted to let go of his own father's grudge.

Damn it, why did I forget that Li Dian's skill is "Forgetting the Gap", now it's all for nothing.

Xu Shu was very satisfied with Li Zheng's move. Of course he had to reciprocate the favor. Now Li Dian was considered to be most of his own.

"Now that we have finished talking about personal matters, please allow me to talk about some official matters."

Li Dian is very smart and knows that private matters come first and public affairs come last. He is a very knowledgeable person at first glance.

Xu Shu nodded and said:
"Mancheng, just say it."

Li Dian's expression instantly became serious and he said softly:
"Tao Qian died. Duke Cao asked Mr. Xu whether he would like to serve as an envoy and go to Xuzhou to pay his respects."

Xu Shu: ...
