Chapter 134
Xi Zhong cupped his hands and said: "During the escape from Chenliu, Cao Cao issued a recruiting order when he passed by Yingchuan, and the warriors and knights who came and went have joined in. As far as the current situation is concerned, the number of warriors has exceeded a thousand. In addition, his clan donated food and grass. A total of [-] soldiers and horses were raised in silver money, as for other things, according to the news from Yuzhou Governor's Mansion, Governor Kong Ni funded Cao Mengde's [-] soldiers and horses, together with hundreds of thousands of weapons."

Wu Ming's head turned black, and he said angrily: "I've heard little about the talent recruitment order issued by me. Is this Cao Mengdela's shit delicious or something? How can it attract so many people to join him?"

Xi Zhong smiled wryly and said: "My lord's recruitment order issued in Jingzhou was originally aimed at the people of the world, but Cao Cao only targeted the gentry. The gentry are all arrogant people, so naturally they will not sit on the same level as the poor. It has aroused their resistance, and it is inevitable that the results will be minimal.”

Wu Ming snorted coldly: "A group of white-eyed wolves who don't hurt, wait until I return to Jingzhou and see if I don't deal with them."

Xi Zhong waved his hand and said, "My lord, don't be angry. The secret line we planted has entered Cao Cao's interior according to the order, and according to reliable sources, he is still his confidant."

Only then did Wu Ming smile a little: "The timing is just right now, it's not worth it to be able to break into Cao Cao's interior, so make arrangements to temporarily cut off all contacts with the dark line, and let him strive to become Cao Cao's powerful and powerful within three years." Otherwise, there is no need to come back to see me."

"promise!"

Wu Ming deliberately arranged a secret line, and naturally Wu Ming could not let him be exposed prematurely. Now Cao Cao's power has improved. As long as he makes more achievements, Cao Cao will naturally promote and appoint him. When he has the opportunity to look into the Central Plains in the future, at that time, this hidden line It can create miraculous effects!
He waved his hand and said, "Where's Yuan Shao? Is there any movement?"

Xi Zhong said: "Pingyuan is thousands of miles away from Luoyang, and there is no useful news in a short time, but one thing is quite unexpected. After Ding Yuan was killed, the whole Bingzhou was in chaos. An army of 30, led by Zhendong General Zhang Ji, went to Bingzhou to suppress the rebellion of the Black Mountain Army."

Wu Ming hummed, lacking in interest: "Bingzhou is on the other side of the Yellow River, but we can't take care of it now."

Xi Zhong said with a smile: "Zhong doesn't mean that Zhang Ji is troublesome, but Zhang Ji's son Zhang Xiu!"

"Zhang Xiu? Why does it sound so familiar?"

"Ahem..." Zhao Yun came out in embarrassment and said, "Master, Zhang Xiu is Yun's second senior brother..."

Second brother?Zhu Bajie, you Zhao Zilong are not Sha Wujing either!
Quickly asked: "How about this embroidery skill?"

Zhao Yun said: "In terms of martial arts, Yun and senior brother should be on par, and in terms of fighting on the battlefield, Yun is slightly better."

Wu Ming breathed out and said: "Zilong Shicheng, do you think this piece of embroidery is possible for me to work for you?"

Zhao Yun thought about it carefully and said: "I'm afraid it will be difficult. Although the second senior brother is not an arrogant person, he is full of pride and easy to make friends with. If the master has a heart-to-heart relationship, he can still become an ally."

Wu Ming sighed and said, "It's really a pity, but who are you big brother?"

Zhao Yun said: "At that time, Yun Ye was still young, and I only remembered that my brother was called Zhang Ren, and he was from Shu County, Yizhou."

Wu Ming hurriedly said, "Has Zhang Ren become an official?"

"This is what I heard from the master. After the senior brother finished his studies, he followed Yizhou Mu Liu Yan."

Wu Ming was annoyed for a while. If he had known that Zhao Yun had such a strong senior brother, he should have done it sooner...

He waved his hand and said, "By the way, Zilong, I don't know if your master has any plans to become an official. His martial arts should not be low, right?"

Zhao Yun smiled wryly and said: "My lord, don't think about it. It is said that my master Tong Yuan and Kunlun Dao Song Dynasty went to the frontier. I heard that some strange person appeared in the southern border, so I went there for a while."

Wu Ming touched his forehead and said, "Okay then, but since they have all gone to southern Xinjiang, I can also send more people to inquire, so that you master and apprentice can meet each other as soon as possible."

Zhao Yun didn't understand Wu Ming's intentions. He didn't want to meet his master. He was clearly happy to see Lie and wanted to be under his command.

Wu Ming turned around and said, "But Xi Zhong, what did you mention Zhang Xiu?"

Xi Zhong said: "Zhang Xiu is not a simple person. I heard that Dong Zhuo sent him to the south to be the prefect of Nanyang County, but Zhang Xiu said that Jingzhou Mu is in Luoyang at the moment. Not going south."

Wu Ming rubbed the bridge of his nose and said, "That's interesting. Dong Zhuo wants to enter Nanyang County with his confidantes. He clearly wants to pinch Wancheng to connect with Sili, the most important throat in Jingzhou, so as to limit our development. This picture really dares to refuse, it seems that I need to meet him, so how about it, just tonight, Zilong will help me run."

"Promise!" Zhao Yun took a step forward to deliver the message.

Wu Ming suddenly said again: "Forget it, Dong Zhuo might be suspicious of me if I'm called to the mansion, so arrange it, I'll go to his mansion alone to have a banquet tonight."

Zhao Yun frowned: "Will it be dangerous to go alone?"

Wu Ming laughed loudly and said, "Don't worry, he Zhang Xiu is not Xiang Yu, and I, Wu Ming, am not Liu Bang, and tonight is not a Hongmen Banquet, and Zilong and you are here, so what can happen."

Zhao Yun thought for a moment and said, "The general will go and deliver the order first."

Guo Jia suddenly laughed and said, "My lord, this is not giving up."

Wu Ming blushed, and said awkwardly, "What did Feng Xiao say?"

Guo Jia chuckled, and all the generals were stunned. Could it be that Wu Ming went alone and had something to say?
But soon Guo Jia solved the mystery: "Inviting Zhang Xiu or going to a banquet will attract Dong Zhuo's attention, but the lord hesitated for a while, obviously because he didn't want to let Zhang Xiu, a 5-star general, plan to Corporal Lixian, win his favor!"

Wu Ming seemed to have been told something that was on his mind and raised a friendly middle finger at him...

The end of the new year is approaching, and the weather at this time is the coldest time, and the snow is blooming, covering Luoyang with a white coat.

"Zilong, is this here?" Wu Ming looked at the plaque above and said.

Zhao Yun nodded: "I told my brother in the afternoon that he should have warmed up the wine by now, and will wait for the lord to enter the table."

Wu Ming hummed and knocked on the door.

"Could this be the Northern Spear King Zhang Xiu?"

The man opposite was over eight feet tall, with a smile on his face and a pricked beard. He looked like a sweetheart.

"Jingzhou Mu, please accept Zhang Xiu's respect."

Wu Ming hurriedly helped him up, and said with a smile: "Since I asked Zilong to come to pay respects to you, I naturally did it to get along with you. Today there is no distinction between superiors and inferiors, only affectionate acquaintances."

Zhang Xiu was overjoyed, and said: "Before, I was still uneasy, but now I see you being so friendly, I feel relieved."

Wu Ming pretended to be angry: "You're still called an adult?"

Zhang Xiu thought for a while and said, "Brother Ling Yun..."
