Chapter 63 Killing two birds with one stone

After a song of Hong Jiang, the audience was silent. Chen Chu glanced at these so-called talented men and women who were dumbfounded, and contempt flashed in his eyes.

"I have seen this Luoyang poetry meeting. I still have official duties to do, so I say goodbye." Everyone in Chen Chuchao clasped their fists, ignored Cai Wenji and Cai Yong's attempt to keep it, and turned around and left casually.

Dian Wei followed Chen Chu tightly. At this time, Dian Wei's expression was very excited, and his entire light brain turned red due to the excitement of his mood, and his nostrils were still gasping for breath. If it weren't for Chen Chu here, Dian Wei would have been screaming to the sky. Although Dian Wei didn't know much, the words and sentences in Manjianghong were easy to understand. Under Chen Chu's passionate chanting, Dian Wei could clearly feel the heroic spirit of the heroes included in it. A song Manjianghong expressed the voice of all the heroes.

As soon as Chen Chu left Cai’s Mansion, dozens of iron guards immediately came up. Chen Chu stepped on the war horses led by his subordinates and immediately prepared to return to the General’s Mansion.

Suddenly, two Confucian scholars ran out of Cai's mansion and came to Chen Chu's war horse and immediately knelt down.

Chen Chu quickly pressed the horse and turned over, helped the two of them up and said, "What do you mean by you? Why did you perform this great gift?"

The two scholars who ran to Chen Chu's war horse were either others, Lu Su and another young man who had been talking to Chen Chu at the poetry meeting.

The two of them looked very excited, and there seemed to be a sense of admiration in their eyes when they looked at Chen Chu.

"In the Lower Lusu, people from Linhuai."

"I am Xu Shu, from Yangdi, Yingchuan." I didn't expect this young man to be Xu Shu! At this time, Xu Shu had not been renamed for avenging his friends. Xu Shu was actually not a simple strategist, he was an all-round talent who could fight and dismount and govern the country.

Chen Chu was surprised to hear these two names. He didn't expect that he would meet these two amazing characters in this boring poetry meeting! In the history of his previous life, Lu Su once had a strategic analysis similar to Zhuge Liang Longzhong. Sun Quan once asked Lu Su: "Now the Han Dynasty is in danger, and the world is disturbed. I am alone in inheriting the work of his father and brother, thinking of having the achievements of Huan Wen. Since you are kind to you, how can you assist him?" Lu Su replied: "In the past, Emperor Gao wanted to respect Emperor Yi but did not get it, Xiang Yu was the one who harmed him. Cao Cao is like Xiang Yu in the past, so why can the general be Huan Wen?

?Su secretly predicted that the Han Dynasty could not be revived, and Cao Cao could not be eliminated. As a general's plan, he could only reach Jiangdong to observe the world's provocation. In this scale, he would not be disgusted. What? The north was sincere in many tasks. Because of his many tasks, he suppressed Huang Zu and attacked Liu Biao. He was at the end of the Yangtze River. He then established an emperor to seek the world. This was the cause of the high emperor." Later, the strategic policy of the Eastern Wu was basically implemented accordingly. After Zhou Yu's death, Lu Su took on the heavy responsibility of assisting Sun Quan. This shows that Lu Su's talent was extraordinary.

Xu Shu was also an extraordinary figure. In terms of strategy alone, in the Three Kingdoms era, there were only a handful of people who could surpass him. If it weren't for his mother's reasons, Xu Shu would have made great achievements.

Chen Chu immediately became interested in attracting two such people.

Chen Chuchao clasped his fists and said, "I have heard of you two for a long time. It is a blessing to meet you today!"

The two of them quickly returned the gift, and Xu Shu said with emotion: "I have heard that the general is a hero who is rare. I didn't believe it at the beginning. Today I saw it, it's true that it is worthy of its reputation!"

Lu Su nodded in agreement, "What Yuan Zhi said is very true! Su has read books and learned military tactics since he was a child, hoping to do his best for the world and the people one day. If the general does not dislike him, Su is willing to serve the tent and do his best." As he said that, Lu Su knelt down again.

Seeing this, Xu Shu also knelt down, "Shu is willing to serve the escort and serve the power of the dog and horse!"

Chen Chu was overjoyed, he would come whatever he wanted! He quickly helped the two of them up, and Chen Chu said with joy, "It is really my blessing to get help from you!"

Seeing that Chen Chu was so happy, the two couldn't help but feel moved.

Chen Chu held the hands of the two and said, "Let's go back and drink, and you won't get drunk today!" Chen Chu was very excited, no wonder he was so happy that he could not make him ecstatic when he could take two famous strategists into his tent at one time.

Seeing Chen Chu leaving so freely, Cai Wenji couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

After Chen Chu left, the scene was silent for a long time. Although Wei Zhongdao wanted to revitalize the atmosphere, almost everyone was not very interested. In the end, the Luoyang Poetry Conference ended hastily. Due to Chen Chu, the Luoyang Poetry Conference was the most failed one.

All the talented men left the Cai Mansion one after another. This time, Cai Wenji did not go to see the guests. This was actually very rude. I wonder if something happened to Cai Wenji.

Wei Zhongdao was slow to leave at the end, but Cai Wenji never came out.

At this time, Cai Wenji was staying alone in the boudoir. She lay on the edge of the window, supported her chin with her hands, and her beautiful eyes were staring out of the window in a daze.

In Cai Wenji's mind, Chen Chu's arrogant and heroic image just now could not be removed, and the heroic lyrics kept echoing in his ears.

Cai Wenji felt that compared with this poem, all the poems she had written before were eclipsed, and the poems Wei Zhongdao seemed too weak and unmanly.

Cai Wenji suddenly felt that he and Wei Zhongdao and others were as ridiculous as clowns in front of Chen Chu, the general of the North. It was not that they didn’t know how to recite poems or write literary talent, but that they were hidden. The reason why he did not write poems in his daily life was because he did not want to do such writings. He wielded 100,000 iron armor and spread the world blood on the battlefield. This may be what a man should really do!

Cai Wenji suddenly thought that when Chen Chu left, her eyes clearly showed a look of contempt. Cai Wenji couldn't help but tremble. She felt a little dissatisfied, and she felt that her self-esteem was hurt.

Chen Chu, Lu Su and Xu Shu returned to the General's Mansion together. However, due to too many affairs, Chen Chu failed to drink and chat with the two of them as they wished.

Chen Chu immediately appointed the two as chief clerks to assist him in handling affairs.

That night, Chen Chu summoned all the strategists and generals here under his command to come to the lobby of the General's Mansion to introduce Lu Su and Xu Shu to everyone.

Everyone was very enthusiastic, but Lu Su and Xu Shu found that although everyone was enthusiastic, they seemed to have doubts in their expressions. Lu Su and Xu Shu understood everyone's thoughts, and everyone was suspicious of their abilities. The two couldn't help but make a secret decision to make some achievements to let everyone see each other.

After everyone saw each other, Chen Chu asked Ju Su in the right head office, "Mr., how did Yuan Shao react to our proposal?"

Ju Su immediately clasped his fists at Chen Chu and replied, "Of course he was ecstatic to give Luoyang to him. He agreed without thinking about our request to take away two-thirds of the treasury's money and goods for military funds."

Chen Chu nodded with a smile. As long as Yuan Shao is settled, Cao Cao's plan will not be able to continue. Chen Chu has been paying attention to Cao Cao's activities these days. Although he doesn't know what Cao Cao wants to do, based on various signs, Ju Su speculated that Cao Cao might be looking for excuses to gather the power of the Eastern princes to be unfavorable to the Northern Army.

As soon as Ju Su finished his words, Lu Su and Xu Shu showed a look of shock. Lu Su clasped his fists at Chen Chu and said anxiously: "Lord, are you going to give up this wealthy land in Luoyang?!"

Chen Chu looked at Lu Su and nodded with a smile, and asked, "What, does Zijing disagree with my decision?"

Lu Su and Xu Shu next to him smiled, and then Xu Shu clasped his fists at Chen Chu and said, "Zi Jing and I originally wanted to find an opportunity to give up Luoyang with our lord, but we were worried that our lord would not be able to let go of this prosperous Luoyang. But we didn't expect that our lord had this idea, so we were really worried!", with a very emotional and gratifying tone.

Chen Chu didn't feel anything except that strategists of Lu Su and Xu Shu should see the situation. Chen Chu smiled and nodded to the two of them to express their affirmation, and then turned around to ask Ju Shu: "Mr. Since you have already negotiated with Yuan Shao, then hand over as soon as possible to avoid long nights and dreams."

"I understand, so I set the handover time with Yuan Shao the day after tomorrow."

"Okay! I'll send the orders and pack my clothes. Our army will set off to Hanoi County tomorrow." Chen Chu stood up and ordered.

Ju Su couldn't help but be stunned for a moment and asked in confusion, "Lord, why will our army set out to leave Luoyang tomorrow? Will we not wait for the handover to be completed?"

Chen Chu frowned and shook his head, "Yuan Shao is not afraid, but Cao Cao is extremely cunning. It is better for our army to behave unexpectedly."

Ju Su suddenly realized, and then he was a little puzzled. He didn't understand why his lord seemed to be afraid of Cao Cao?

"After our army leaves Luoyang, we must leave one person to deal with the princes. Who would you like to stay?" Chen Chu frowned and glanced at the people in the hall.

Everyone looked at each other, Ju Su, Lu Su and Xu Shu asked together and said, "I am willing to stay." The reason why the generals did not ask for their orders was because this matter was obviously not something they could do.

Looking at the firm eyes of the three of them, Chen Chu couldn't help feeling very relieved.

Chen Chu's eyes patrolled back and forth on the faces of the three of them, and finally settled on Lu Su. Lu Su was cautious and meticulous in his work, and was undoubtedly the best candidate to stay in Luoyang.

"Zijing, it's up to you to do this Luoyang!" Chen Chu left in front of Lu Su, and said solemnly, holding Lu Su's hand.

When Lu Su heard this, he immediately clasped his fists at Chen Chu and said, "Don't worry, lord, Su will definitely live up to his lord's entrust!"

Chen Chu nodded, "I feel at ease with Zijing doing things."

Then he ordered Dian Wei beside him: "Come on evil, leave five hundred iron guards for Zijing."

"Yes, lord." Dian Wei Hongsheng replied.

Lu Su was moved and hurriedly said, "Lord, how can this make it happen! This iron guard is the lord's close guard, how can you give it half of it to me!"

Chen Chu patted Lu Su's fist and said, "Although Zijing stayed in Luoyang, there would be no danger, but everything was unpredictable. If an emergency occurs, these iron guards can swear to protect Zijing from escaping Luoyang. Zijing should not postpone it. This is what I should do as the lord."

What else could Lu Su say? His eyes immediately turned red and he knelt down.

On that day, all the Northern Expedition Army inside and outside Luoyang City took action. To outsiders, the Northern Expedition Army seemed to have made great moves.
