After getting Li Jue's approval, Jia Xu went directly into the hall. After seeing that the other three generals were there, he knew that this matter must be closely related to them, and it was definitely related to Liangzhou.
"Jia Xu has met all the generals."
Jia Xu saluted everyone.
"No need to salute, just give me a seat."
Li Jue waved his hand, and a guard naturally brought the chair that had been prepared and placed it beside him.
"Wen He, Ma Teng's envoy arrived in Chang'an last night."
As soon as Li Jue spoke, Jia Xu's brows immediately raised. Sure enough, it was still a Liangzhou matter.
"General, Ma Teng's envoy came to Chang'an, but he wants us to send troops north to help him fight Yuan?"
"Yes, that's what Ma Teng's messenger meant."
Li Jue nodded to Jia Xu. Jia Xu was really smart. He understood these things without having to explain them himself.
"Then I don't know what the generals think."
A glint flashed in Jia Xu's eyes, and he glanced at the generals sitting there.
"We are also struggling with this. If we don't send troops and watch Yuan Shu defeat Ma Teng, then Liangzhou will definitely be captured by Yuan Shu. In this case, Yongzhou will be in danger.
If we send troops to help, it is easy to defeat Yuan Shu, but if we fail, then Yuan Shu will definitely regard us as his enemies. Once he takes this revenge, his next target will definitely be Chang'an."
Since Jia Xu asked the question, Li Jue had nothing to hide and directly expressed all his thoughts.
"Well, this is indeed a problem. If we don't send troops, we will be in danger, and Yongzhou will be in danger. But if we send troops, we will also attract the hatred of Yuan Shu, and we will inevitably suffer retaliation. But, general, have you ever thought of a problem?"
Jia Xu's words stunned the generals sitting there.
"what is the problem?"
Li Jue frowned and looked at Jia Xu in front of him.
"That is, whether we send troops or not, the problems we have to face are the same, because the Han Emperor is in our hands and the Han court is in our hands. This is the most valuable thing in the Han Dynasty now.
No matter what Yuan Shu is thinking now, he will definitely win over the Han Emperor and Han Ting. With this factor in mind, he will never let us go.
So whether we sit on the sidelines or send troops to rescue him, his first target after taking Liangzhou will definitely be Yongzhou."
Jia Xu hit the nail on the head and pointed out the current general trend of the world. No matter what Li Jue and the others thought, one thing was that as long as Yuan Shu captured Liangzhou, Yongzhou would inevitably be spared in the next step.
"You mean that if we want to defend Yongzhou now, we must help Ma Teng defeat Yuan Shu, otherwise what awaits us will be the same result as Ma Teng."
Jia Xu's words immediately enlightened Li Jue. Now he is really desperate. If Liangzhou is gone, Yongzhou will also become Yuan Shu's target in the next step. It will be difficult for them to resist.
"Yes, if you want to hold Liangzhou, you must first ensure Liangzhou. Don't expect Ma Teng to occupy Liangzhou. It is impossible. So as long as you help Ma Teng win Yuan Shu's decisive battle, then Yuan Shu's target can only be Ma
Teng, our Yongzhou can continue to be stable."
Jia Xu nodded to Li Jue, this was what he wanted to express.
"I see."
Li Jue also nodded. Based on Jia Xu's analysis, it seemed that he had to send troops to Liangzhou.
"Zhiran, since this matter has come to an end, don't hesitate to send troops when it's time to send them out."
Guo Bang did the same. He stood up directly and expressed his thoughts.
"Fight when it's time to fight. I don't believe that Yuan Shu and his Jizhou army are tough. Go ahead and fight him."
Fan Chou has a very good relationship with Guo Si, and Guo Si said so, so he had nothing to hesitate and stood up directly to support him.
"Zhang Ji, what do you think?"
Although Guo Si and Fan Chou both agreed to send troops, Li Jue saw Zhang Ji who was silent.
"General Cheqi, I was thinking about what Wen He said just now."
Hearing Li Jue call his name, Zhang Ji also came out of his thoughts and looked up at the other three people.
"How to say?"
Now the three of them were confused again. No matter whether they sent out troops or not, they would be beaten by Yuan Shu. So if they sent out troops to help Ma Teng, was there any other way?
Unlike the three generals, Jia Xu understood Zhang Ji's meaning from his words. He was trying to be a monster.
"Wen He said that Yuan Shu would target us simply because the Han Emperor and Han Court are now in our hands. If they were not in Chang'an, would Yuan Shu still send troops to attack us?"
As soon as Zhang Ji said these words, the whole audience fell silent. Only Jia Xu seemed to have seen through everything, with no surprise in his eyes.
"Zhang Ji, what's wrong with your head?
If we hand over the Han Emperor and the Han Court, what else will we have?
Tell me, what else do we have?"
After calming down for a while, Guo Bang immediately exploded. It can be said that all the fame and wealth they had now were given by the Han Emperor, but now Zhang Ji wanted to let them out. This was something he could not accept.
"Guo Si, don't speak. Let Zhang Ji finish his words first."
Faced with Guo Si's rage, Li Jue was somewhat calm, and his eyes were full of thinking. It was obvious that he was digesting what Zhang Ji had said.
"I'm not going to say anything else. I'm just asking you one thing. Do you want to continue to be the king and hegemon in Yongzhou safely and dominate, or do you really want to fight for hegemony in the world and be the best in the world?"
Zhang Ji is very clear-headed now. He knows what he wants and what they can want. The current situation is that he seems to have unlimited glory as Emperor Han, but in their hands, apart from giving them glory, they can't help them at all.
What, on the contrary, it will bring disaster to them. This is what the hot potato means.
The three of them fell into silence again when they heard Zhang Ji's words. Even the most reckless Fan Chou was sitting quietly, thinking, what exactly do they want?
"You mean that as long as we hand over the Han Emperor, Yuan Shu will have no motivation to attack us, and we will be able to securely sit on the Diaoyutai in Yongzhou?"
In the end, it was Guo Si who spoke first. After all, this issue was very important. If the discussion was different, everything would be in vain.
"I'm not sure about this. I just put forward this idea. The specific situation will be analyzed by our military adviser."
After Zhang Ji finished speaking, he glanced at Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe aside. Among the five people in the room, four reckless generals, only Jia Xu was the most suitable person.
"Wenhe, please analyze Zhang Ji's proposal."
Now it's good, not only Zhang Ji, but the other three people also set their sights on Jia Xu.
"Okay, then I will help you generals analyze it."
While Jia Xu was speaking, an inexplicable thought flashed through his mind.
