24. Chapter 1
When Fang Xia was learning how to be a qualified taishou, he hadn't seen Guo Jia for several days.
Xuchang City is not big, but it is not small, if you don't want to see someone, it's normal not to see it.
But is Guo Jia really like Fang Xia's belly, eating white rice and rubbing free wine every day and not doing anything?
No.
Guo Jia undoubtedly contradicted the mainstream values of the time in the subsections, and Dan was extremely measured in terms of right and wrong.
When Fang Xia was anxious, before leaving Xuchang to persuade the village, he drank enough wine and found Xun Yu.
Chen Qun didn't dare to take the liberty of coming to disturb Xun Yu, but Guo Jia dared, not only daring, but he would also come to the door without gifts.
The subordinates around Xun Yu were not happy when they saw Guo Jia's appearance, but Guo Jia was his son's best friend, and he couldn't drive people out, so he could only be out of sight and out of mind, and let Guo Jia stay lazy.
In the evening, Xun Yu went home.
When Guo Jia came here, Xun Yu had already heard the report from his subordinates, so he went to see him.
At that time, it was already dinner time, and as a child of the family, the food of Xun Yu's family was a little better than that of Guo Jia's family. Guo Jia is not a foodie, he is just a drunkard and a lazy, but if he chooses to go home and cook a meal that can only be said to be barely cooked, or eat here in Xun Yu, he must choose the latter.
So the meal was served.
But don't expect people like Guo Jia to follow the rule of eating and sleeping silently, and finish the meal quietly.
After Guo Jia saw the food, he nodded with satisfaction, and then cheekily asked Xun Yu for wine, and praised: "Wen Ruo, isn't it boring to have food and no wine?"
Xun Yu glanced at him and said, "If Feng Xiao wants wine, he should find the lord." β
Fang Xia promised Guo Jia that the matter of him drinking casually had obviously reached Xun Yu's ears.
Guo Jiaxin said: "Naturally, there is not too much wine. β
The two looked at each other.
Xun Yu had a smile on his face and did not let go.
Fang Xia asked Guo Jia to drink, and Xun Yu would not complain to her because of this, but Xun Yu thought about Guo Jia and would not take the initiative to provide him with wine.
However, Guo Jia was not so easy to dismiss, Xun Yu had to let someone serve a bowl of Tu, replace the wine with Tu, and let Guo Jia pour it.
Tu is the tea of later generations, which has appeared in the Western Han Dynasty, and some people have drunk it among the scholars in the Eastern Han Dynasty. However, it has not yet become mainstream, so it will have to wait until after Wei Jin. Nowadays, tea cannot be said to be drunk, but to be eaten, and ginger, sugar, and other things have to be added to it.
In short, if you want Fang Xia to evaluate, it is not for people to drink.
Guo Jia only likes to drink, not such things, but being stared at by Xun Yu, he hesitated, and he could only drink it all.
The stomach was full, Guo Jia stopped making trouble, and then the two sat facing each other and began to talk about things.
This is not the first time.
When Guo Jia and Xun Yu were still in the wild, they talked about it once.
Guo Jia was extremely weak at that time, and even coughing, his eyes were amazingly bright, and he said to Xun Yu: "There is no woman in this world as the emperor, why can't I make one? Since Lord Diao Chan has the image of the Ming Lord, how can she just ignore her because she is a woman? Wen Ruo, whether she is a man or a woman, what can she do? If the world is peaceful, what if you give up this body?"
Xun Yu was stunned, he felt that what Guo Jia said was very reasonable.
In this world, where can a person be congenitally despised just because he is a woman?
The reputation of Lord Diao Chan spreads all over the world, the reputation is so high that it is difficult for others to look at it, and his temperament is also very good according to rumors. If others can, why can't Lord Diao Chan? Is it because she is a woman? Xun Yu felt that if he thought like this, it was really not in line with the way of a gentleman.
So he was persuaded by Guo Jia.
Guo Jiaxing enthusiastically discussed his ambitions and ideals with Xun Yu.
He gets no less satisfaction from talking about these things than from drinking.
Xun Yu and Guo Jia are not the same kind of people, but they are very similar, otherwise they would not become close friends.
Although the means are different, their ultimate goal is to end this chaotic world that has not yet been completely unfolded.
Guo Jia looked for Xun Yu for the second time, of course, not to him for a drink.
Again, it's not here to show off the map.
Although this map drawn by Fang Xia himself is indeed worth showing off.
The two of them talked about the situation today.
Fang Xia has not established any intelligence network now, and she knows nothing except the process of the game and the historical process. But Xun Yu, as a family, has a huge intelligence network behind him, supported by the family, and they know a lot more than Fang Xia. Under the asymmetry of information, coupled with the IQ gap, the results are already out.
Guo Jia's intelligence network is not red at all.
Xun Yu couldn't help him.
After the princes advanced into the Tiger Prison, Sun Jian, who had the title of the Tiger of Jiangdong, first invited to fight, and Huaxiong met him.
The vanguard led by Sun Jian and Dong Zhuojun, led by Lu Bu and deputy by Xu Rong, began to fight.
Lu Bu has been extremely unhappy in his heart since he missed the scene of Fang Xia going out of the city, so after leaving the news that it's okay don't bother me, he practiced martial arts every day to vent. A kind of Cheng dΓΉ said that he was arrogant to the point of conceit, and felt that as soon as he made a move, those princes would definitely fall apart, so he did not come to the last moment and did not bother to make a move at all.
There are a large number of princes of the Eighteen Roads, and if they work together, even if Lu Bu makes a move, there is no need to worry. After all, in the age of cold weapons, an individual's armed forces can be an enemy of 10 people, but what about an enemy of 100 people? If you take the lives of thousands of people to pile up, the general will be exhausted to death. But they all have ghosts, and they are unwilling to contribute, so there is a stalemate.
If it weren't for Sun Jian's willingness to come out, he wouldn't know how to toss.
But Sun Jian came out and was defeated in the end.
Yuan Shao Yuan originally became the leader of the alliance of the princes under Cao Cao's humility, and handed over the important task of transporting grain to Yuan Shu Yuan Highway in line with the principle of cheap his own family.
But Yuan Shu was very cheating brother, and he cut off Sun Jian's grain and grass.
The fourth generation and third duke of the Yuan family, the reputation is far and wide, Yuan Shao has no opinion on becoming the leader of the alliance, but Yuan Shu has a lot of opinions. Because he is the concubine of the Yuan family, Yuan Shao is just a concubine. At the end of the Han Dynasty, the concubines were not as distinct as those of later generations, especially north of the Yangtze River, and the scholars in these places looked at the concubines relatively lightly, so Yuan Shao was able to ascend the throne.
Therefore, Yuan Shu began to work hard to drag his brother back, and as soon as the grain and grass in the rear were broken, Sun Jian's troops were naturally unable to attack.
Sun Jian went back to Yuan Shao to make a fuss and went on strike.
Yuan Shao had no choice but to verbally criticize Yuan Shu and give Sun Jian some compensation, and the matter was revealed.
As a result, Sun Jian was no longer willing to send troops.
The princes began to look at each other, and they counted on others to fight and pick up the bargain themselves.
happened to meet Hua Xiong to call for battle, and the situation changed from a siege to a fighting general.
The reason why Hua Xiong came to call the battle was because of Xu Rong.
Xu Rong is the deputy general in charge of the Tiger Prison Pass, and Lu Bu has nothing in his mind except fighting, so he can't be counted on, so Xu Rong is in charge of the defense inside and outside the city, and he can't get through.
It was at this time that Hu Zhen came to the Tiger Prison. Although he was dissatisfied with Dong Zhuo, Hu Zhen was not stupid enough to publicly say that I was going to defect, he learned Fang Xia's method and went south directly, intending to take refuge in Fang Xia. However, at this time, the Tiger Prison Pass was already under martial law, and Hu Zhen couldn't get out, so he had no choice but to find Xu Rong.
Xu Rong and Hu Zhen had a good relationship, and when he heard that Hu Zhen was going to find Fang Xia, although he guessed some of Hu Zhen's thoughts, he still didn't expose him. After thinking about it, Xu Rong looked at his previous friendship, turned a blind eye, and released Hu Zhen from the tiger prison. But this thing has to be done, and it can't be done in front of Huaxiong.
Hua Xiong wanted to make meritorious contributions, and he had a strong desire to fight, and he had no friendship with Xu Rong and Hu Zhen, if he knew, this matter would be more troublesome. Xu Rong thought about it, and then ordered Hua Xiong to go to the coalition army to provoke, just before Hua Xiong defeated Sun Jian, and his momentum was high, so naturally there was no reason to do it.
Then, Hu Zhen ordered someone to take a hanging basket and put him down when there were few people.
During the war, it was certainly impossible to open the main gate of the city gate, and the reason why the defenders had the advantage was because of the city wall to cover it, and it was condescending. If the door is opened casually, and then the dangerous stronghold of Tiger Prison Pass is stolen by the coalition forces, Xu Rong can't afford to pay this responsibility.
However, Hu Zhen's actions are not unknown to anyone.
It is the heavily guarded tiger prison, and there is still news coming in. This is the family, the change of dynasties, the family that has not changed for thousands of years.
At this time, Xun Yu knew, and then Guo Jia also knew.
Both of them knew what it would mean once Hu Zhen came to Xuchang.
Xun Yu originally wanted to inform Fang Xia of this matter, but Guo Jia stopped him.
Guo Jia smiled and said: "If we want to disturb the lord in everything, what use do we want? I think Hu Zhen is a narrow-minded person who has no room for people, and it is not a wise move to betray Dong Zhongying's land this time. I don't think he can get to Xuchang, and he will die at the hands of thieves, what does Wen Ruoyi do?"
Xun Yu was silent for a moment.
He has been friends with Guo Jia for many years, and of course he knows what Guo Jia really wants to say.
From Xun Yu's personal point of view, he doesn't like to use such a strategy, compared to tricks and ghosts, Xun Yu is better at upright schemes. But Guo Jia is also right about one thing, he really can't let Hu Zhen come to Xuchang, otherwise Fang Xia will definitely be in a dilemma. Isn't it normal to nip difficulties in the bud?
Xun Yu compromised.
He was originally a very principled person, but obviously Guo Jia and Fang Xia could make him an exception.
Xun Yu lent Guo Jia a group of manpower.
Guo Jia took the map drawn by Fang Xia and looked at it, and said to Xun Yu: "Wen Ruo, now that the Lord is just worried about money and food, I will go out of the city to share her worries, and the things in the city will bother you." β
Hu Zhen wanted to take refuge in Fang Xia, and he must have taken the road from Luoyang to Xuchang.
This road is the same as the one Fang Xia took at the beginning, there is no fork, just a big road.
Guo Jia wants to block Hu Zhen and want him to never come to Xuchang, so he must be able to do it.
After doing so, he returned to Fang Xia.
Seeing Fang Xia's hesitation, ruthlessness and progress, Guo Jia felt very relieved, Diao Chan was willing to grow, and it was not in vain that his hard work was not in vain.
But Guo Jia would never say these words, he only said to Fang Xia, who was still holding the letter: "Lord, if there is nothing to do, Jia will retire." β
