"Am I reckless?"

Long Xiang widened his eyes, looked like he didn't believe his ears, and then asked in confusion: "Zijing thinks I'm too anxious? I think Liyang is short of food and grass, which is a good time to help him in time. I will give Zhao Bochang

I called Hefei just to think about how to support food and grass and deepen my feelings."

"Have you ever thought that if Taishici didn't accept it, or if he accepted it, he would still be willing to be in Jiangdong? Wouldn't we waste an opportunity in vain?"

Lu Su frowned and shook his head, then whispered: "According to Xu Du's latest information, Yuan Shao would not get sick after defeating Cao Cao last time. As long as Cao Cao digested the 50,000 surrendered soldiers, it was just around the corner to cross the river and capture Hebei;

The emperor was also training troops in Xicheng at this time. It is estimated that the day to seize Guanzhong is not far away. We cannot fall behind on this end. I suggest that Taishi Ci should collect it if he can."

Long Xiang looked bitter when he heard this, and thought to himself, "I, Mr. Long, what kind of virtue can I do, Liu Bei and Cao Cao, compare these two heroes? I can compare the resources these two have? Taishi Ci really doesn't want to give up."

After all, Liu Bei is known as a relative of the Han Dynasty and the Liu family in Zhuo County has always helped him. Is we the real pure grassroots?

Stabilizing and not advancing, nor competing for strengths and weaknesses with others. This is Long Xianggou’s core idea until now. He would rather fall behind than show off, but Taishi Ci really wanted to fight for it.

After hearing Lu Su's worries, Long Xiang immediately gave his reasons.

"Zijing doesn't know that I have other intentions to do this. Sun Quan is a suspicious person. If the Taishi Ziyi accepts my grain and rice, just send someone to spread rumors in Jiangdong, wouldn't we be able to benefit?"

"No need to be so troublesome."

Seeing Lu Su shaking his head, Long Xiang followed and asked, "Is it possible that Zi Jing has other tricks?"

“Yes.”

Lu Su nodded and stroked his beard, and said earnestly: "I suggest that Yun Qi not take action so urgently. It is better to starve Liyang and the military and civilians. And we shouldn't get involved too early. Have you forgotten how you recovered Ni Zhengping?

Let the other party wake up on its own initiative.”

Long Xiang frowned and replied, "I don't understand very much."

"The clever plan of disagreement is like spring rain moistening things, silent. I heard that before Sun Ce's death, Zhang Zhao and others wanted to support Sun Yi. Do you guess Sun Quan is afraid of him?

Sun Yi was the prefect of Danyang at this time, and Liyang was across the river from Danyang County. When Taishi Ci was in short supply, it was understandable that he crossed the river to ask for help from his own people."

"It's amazing."

Long Xiang interrupted Lu Su and murmured: "When you ask Yao Xuan to find someone to spread rumors, just say that Sun Yi wins over the generals to the border. Sun Quan has no choice but to do anything to his brothers, and he must have actions against Taishi Ci, but"

Lu Su looked curious: "But what?"

Long Xiang sighed: "Sun Quan cuts the supplies of troops stationed in various places to ensure the smooth progress of the western expedition to Jingzhou. I am afraid that the food and grass in Danyang will be arranged uniformly. Even if Sun Yi wants to win over Ziyi, he will be unable to cook without rice."

Lu Su stroked his beard and comforted: "The grain in the official warehouse will be uniformly dispatched, and the local powerful people in Jiangdong cannot control it. I will ask Yao Xuan to do some work secretly, and someone will naturally deliver food to Danyang."

"Good plan."

Long Xiang gave Lu Su a thumbs up and asked, "But I have called Zhao Fan, Zijing should have a way to save him, right?"

"This matter is Yi Er. As long as Yun Qi cooperates with me later, he will definitely let Zhao Fan bring the news back and let Taishi Ziyi ask Sun Yi for help."

"Then let's say that. Should I hide something about Zhao Fan?"

"I don't think it's necessary. The two brothers are their own masters. Even if they tell Zhao Fan frankly at this time, he will never abandon Taishi Ci."

"Then I'll listen to you."

After the discussion, the two turned around and entered the hall. They found that there were several small cauldrons on each person's table, and the fresh pork was fragrant when it was cooked simply.

The Xu brothers are no longer surprised, but they are a torment for Zhao Fan.

I drank the porridge with clear soup and water for several days, but there was no oil in my stomach.

Seeing Long Xiang, Lu Su entered side by side, and three people in the hall stood up at the same time to salute.

Long Xiang greeted everyone and sat down, smiled and said to Zhao Fan modestly: "Just a few simple pig-killing dishes, Bo Chang should not dislike it's not rich."

"You are too modest. These things are already very abundant. I will be ashamed of them. How dare you dislike them?" Zhao Fan stood up again when he spoke.

"Then don't be polite, everyone will start."

As soon as Long Xiang finished speaking, Lu Su and Er Xu began to turn on their chopsticks. They knew Long Xiang's rules and usually eat something first and then drink.

Zhao Fan sat upright on the mat like a Buddha. Not only did he not reach out to grab the chopsticks, but he even closed his eyes directly.

Long Xiangyi said, "Why didn't Bo Chang move his chopsticks? Do you have no appetite, or are you not hungry now? Just eat some?"

Zhao Fan waved his hand and shook his head. He had been greedy for a long time by the smell of pork. His belly was washed by the clear soup and water for many days, and now he was hungry from the bottom of his heart.

He didn't move his chopsticks because he felt ashamed of Taishi Ci. Taishi Ci had always been vigilant against Long Xiang, which was not only out of the consciousness of the generals stationed in the border in Jiangdong, but also felt the suppression of Hefei in Huainan.

Dancing with wolves requires caution.

In order to find out whereabouts of his brother, Zhao Fan frequently went to Hefei to contact Long Xiang, which was contrary to Taishici's will. Now he had to eat and drink with the other party on his back. His strong sense of guilt made him uneasy.

"These dishes must be excellent, but I am worried about the safety of Brother Zhuo, and I am really not in the mood to taste the delicious food in the cauldron. If there is any definite news from the Long Taishou, please tell me."

"Oh"

Long Xiang remembered Lu Su's instructions and replied with a smile: "I have real confirmation. After I separated from my brother and Bo Chang, I wandered around. Finally, I went to Guiyang County, Jingzhou. I was adopted as my adopted son by a family named Zhao.

Changing Zhuo to Fan is the current prefect of Guiyang.”

"What?"

Zhao Fan stood up as if he was hit by lightning, and then looked at Long Xiang again to confirm: "Preventist Long said seriously?"

Long Xiang nodded seriously: "The news I got is just like this. As for whether the prefect Guiyang and Bo Chang are brothers, you have to verify it yourself. I heard that Prefect Zhao has been looking for you, but Wu Hou and Huang Zu frequently fight.

, the Yangtze River waterway is unlikely to be difficult to pass in a short period of time, so Bo Changruo plans to go to Guiyang to find relatives, so he can only wait for the relationship between Jingzhou and Jiangdong to ease."

"Looking for relatives? Not for now"

Zhao Fan shook his head and explained: "Since Brother Zhuo is living such a good life, I am relieved that I am the elder brother. Now both sides are taking care of their families and having their own masters, so it is not so easy to reunite."

“That’s right.”

Long Xiang had long guessed that Zhao Fan was not so free and easy. Except for Taishi Ci's stance, the family he mentioned just now was also a bond. It is rumored that his wife Fan is quite beautiful, and Zhao Fan traveled with her beautiful wife with a great risk.

.

Zhao Fan, who had no appetite, suddenly raised his glass and toasted Long Xiang several times in a row. He was not enough to give him any gratitude, and then picked up his chopsticks and feasted.

At this time, Lu Su glanced at Long Xiang, thinking that the time was for cooperation was up.

"Yunqi, the pig-killing dish is very outstanding today. Look at how much General Zhao eats."

"Maybe I know the whereabouts of my brother, but suddenly my appetite is very high. I heard that the dishes in Jiangdong are more refined."

Zhao Fan was so ateful that he explained with an awkward look: "General Long is so modest. Zhao Fan has never eaten these dishes on the table in his life. As for Jiangdong dishes, haha."
