Chapter 151: Langya Zhuge
Ye Xiao's visit to Ju County also has another purpose, which is to continue north to Langya City to meet Zhuge Jin.

They met once by chance on the East China Sea official road and decided to deal with the Black Mountain Army. The Zhuge family supported Ye Xiao's verbal agreement.

Now, as all the Black Mountain bandits in the Taihang Mountains are running around, Ye Xiao finally has the opportunity to talk to Zhuge Jin about cooperation in the true sense.

Someone was sent to Langya City two days in advance to inform the Zhuge family that the bandit rebellion in Black Mountain was over and Ye Xiao would visit Langya City in five days.

This is a formal negotiation in name, Ye Xiao, as General Zhengdong, even Langya County Chancellor can only receive him as an official.

Ye Xiao stayed in Xiapi for a few days, and handled some urgent matters sent by Xiapi and other people from various places through the carrier pigeons, especially on the Lingbi side of Guangling. The reward has already gone south, do a good job of defense along the way.

The focus is on Shouchun's elite soldier plan. General Zhang Liao has already started preparing corresponding supplies in accordance with the regulations. This change has somewhat affected him.

News of the disintegration of the Black Mountain Army quickly spread throughout Qingzhou, Xuzhou, and Yuzhou, and many places were destroyed as a result.

The court was unable to solve the problem and could only let the place fend for itself.

In this short period of time, Yuan Shu's military strength suddenly increased from 10 to [-] because of the extremely tempting reward. Although they were all bandits, based on the strength of the [-]-strong army, this It was Yuan Shu's combat power at his peak.

Yuan Shu even sent letters to Liu Biao and sent generous gifts in an attempt to ease relations with Liu Biao and establish an alliance.

Because Cao Cao had already deployed heavy troops on the northern border of Runan, Yuan Shu did not dare to make enemies in the southwest and tried to gain strategic time and space with Liu Biao by easing relations.

Ye Xiao's side of Lingbi City stationed [-] infantry troops and practiced every day, which frightened Yuan Shu's army in Jiujiang to the point where they did not dare to relax, because Yuan Shu's army was a threat to Ye Xiao's army in the first battle in Xuzhou.

As for the Sun family in Jiangdong, Ye Xiao discovered through the intelligence system that Sun Ce had pacified most of Jiangdong in just a few years.

Ye Xiao is somewhat envious, because most of the land in Jiangdong is controlled by the Han court and is entrenched by small forces, such as Huang Zu, Yan Baihu, Hua Xin and others. These people are short-sighted. If Ye Xiao's territory is in Jiangdong, He is sure to do better than Sun Ce.

First in Jiangdong, he was turned into an iron bucket by the Sun family. Zhou Yu, Huang Gai and other civil and military talents under his command were listed. With the help of the natural danger of the Yangtze River, he has already set his sights on Lujiang and other places, and he has become a behemoth just like Cao Cao without knowing it.

Even if Ye Xiao had Xuzhou, he would not dare to look down upon Sun Quan. At the same time, he just wanted to test Wu Laosi's strength and delay Sun Quan's development. He asked Wu Laosi to send many people into Danyang, Wu County and others to spread rumors.

The main purpose was to make a fuss about Sun Ce's death and throw dirty water on Sun Quan. No matter what the effect was, Ye Xiao's intention was not to make Sun Quan's life easier, thereby delaying their pursuit of Lujiang River.

Ye Xiao looked at the map steadily and roughly saw the trend of the entire world.

"Husband, we are ready." Lu Qiling walked in and interrupted Ye Xiao's thoughts.

According to the plan, they will set off today, accompanied by Zhang Yan's broken mountain battalion, to Langya City.

Ye Xiao put away the map and set out from Ju County with Lu Qiling. The soldiers of the 500-meter Poshan Battalion set out lightly and headed for Langya.

With such a large team dispatched, no one dared to cause trouble along the way. The team arrived outside Langya City at the appointed time.

Ye Xiao saw the tall city walls of this county from a distance and sighed slightly. The development of the Han Dynasty was still very strong. Unfortunately, the collapse of the world was too sudden and the internal friction was too severe. Otherwise, even Dong Zhuo would not have dared to control the place. Such rampant soldiers entered Luoyang.

"Report to the lord! There are 2000 defenders of Langya City in front of the city, and there are many other people blocking the official road."

The scout knight came back from the front to report, and found that someone was already waiting outside Langya City.

Ye Xiao thought for a while, glanced at Zhang Yan, nodded and said: "We will continue to move forward, pay attention to the Poshan Camp, if there is a situation, we will retreat."

"Don't worry, my lord, leave it to us!"

Zhang Yan immediately arranged for 500 people to sneak into the forest from both sides of the official road, and the remaining 1000 people followed Ye Xiao as the main force.

The team slowly arrived outside Langya City, and Ye Xiao also saw that there were indeed Han Dynasty soldiers lined up, and hundreds of people standing on both sides of the road to watch.

Seeing this, Ye Xiao signaled Zhang Yan to calm down and led Lu Qiling slowly to the front.

"Zhuge Jin of Langya welcomes General Zhengdong. Please forgive me for being too far away to welcome him."

Zhuge Jin slowly walked out of the crowd and bowed respectfully to Ye Xiao. It was obvious that he recognized Ye Xiao's status and influence.

Ye Xiao quickly dismounted, grabbed Zhuge Jin's arms, and said with emotion: "Mr. Ziyu, we finally meet again. Haha, I came as promised. Langya doesn't have to worry about the Black Mountain Army this time."

Zhang Yan behind her bowed her hands to Zhuge Jin somewhat unnaturally, "Ye Xiaojun, Zhang Yan has met Mr. Ziyu."

Seeing Zhang Yan, Zhuge Jin was slightly taken aback. Although he had heard the news that the Black Mountain Army had disintegrated, he did not expect Zhang Yan to join Ye Xiao.

"It turned out to be Chief Zhang, that's right, if it wasn't for someone like General Zhengdong, I wouldn't be able to make you follow." Zhuge Jin said, looking at Ye Xiao with a complicated expression.

Ye Xiao laughed loudly, thinking Zhuge Jin was joking. Seeing Zhuge Jin followed by many servants and a lot of luggage in the car, he asked doubtfully.

"Mr. Ziyu, have you just returned from a long trip?"

Zhuge Jin gave a deep salute suddenly, and said with a wry smile: "General, I am waiting for you here. I have to go."

Ye Xiao was shocked, pulled Zhuge Jin and asked, "Let's go? Where to go? Mr. Ziyu, I'm here today to keep an appointment."

Zhuge Jin was embarrassed because of this. He took out a letter from his arms and said: "General, I am sorry that I can no longer serve you. As early as a few days ago, I saw that there was no news from the general. Jiangdong warmly invited me, but I couldn't shirk it, so I Agreed."

Ye Xiao was stunned when he heard the words, he didn't expect Zhuge Jin to choose Jiangdong in the end, holding the letter in his hand, his eyes were a little dazed and he didn't know how to answer.

"General, I have broken my appointment. This letter is for my younger brother Zhuge Liang. He is currently studying with Mr. Shui Jing in Xiangyang and is known for his talent. I am going to Jiangdong Tiger. General, if you are interested, you can find him. He You can understand my painstaking efforts after reading the letter."

Seeing Ye Xiao's deeply shocked look, Zhuge Jin was moved but also felt very uncomfortable. Fortunately, their Zhuge family also had a disciple, Zhuge Liang, and recommending him to Ye Xiao could be regarded as making up for his apology.

Ye Xiao suddenly heard a name that shocked him.

Zhuge Liang!
Then he looked at the letter in his hand and couldn't help but hold it tightly in his hand.
