In Beijing, Xu Shu and his mother lived in the mansion arranged for him by Yuan Chang, and Pang Tong also lived in his mansion. After all, Pang is a person, he is still young, and he asked Mother Xu to take care of him just now. Early this morning, Yuan Chang left Beijing City to catch up with the army that conquered Goguryeo, and Xu Shu also went to the government office in Beijing City to start the first day's work.

By the time Xu Shu returned to the mansion, Pang Tong had already arrived home. Yuan Chang said yesterday that Xun Chen, Dong Zhao and Xu Shu would take turns to train Pang Tong and Lu Yu, and today Xun Chen rested, and the two went to Xun Chen's mansion to seek advice.

After dinner, Xu Shu did not go to rest immediately, but walked to the study, ready to continue thinking about the problem. It's just that what I didn't expect was that Pang Tong also followed behind his ass.

"Wulang, what's the matter?" Xu Shu looked at Pang Tong with a puzzled expression, wondering what was the matter with him following him to the study?

"Uncle Yuanzhi, my nephew just had some doubts in his heart, so he came to consult his uncle. Pang Tong bowed respectfully to Xu Shu and said solemnly.

"Oh, though, if my uncle can answer it, I'll let you know. ”

"Thank you, Uncle Yuanzhi!"

After Pang Tong saluted respectfully again, he first straightened the robe on his body, his face was straight, and he asked sternly: "Uncle Yuanzhi, as far as my nephew knows, before yesterday, my uncle didn't seem to have any intention of serving Youzhou Mu. Why is it that after just one night, my uncle seems to have changed as a different person. Looking at my uncle's face, it seems that he has been working hard for a day today, and it is not a state of inability to work, I wonder if my uncle can tell me why this is?"

Pang Tongyi's serious face was faintly a little excited and expectant.

"Huh?"

Xu Shu, who was originally contemplating the affairs of Youzhou, suddenly raised his head after listening to Pang Tong's words, and inadvertently saw that Pang Tong's face was still mixed with excitement and expectation, what does this mean? Suddenly, Xu Shu's heart moved, and it seemed that he had some understanding. After pondering for a moment, he thought of Yuan Chang's expectations of Pang Tong, and immediately made a decision.

"Gorou, do you know what kind of state you are in today?"

"My nephew doesn't know, please ask Uncle Yuanzhi to teach!" Pang Tong shook his head very simply and replied, of course, Pang Tong saw that Xu Shu was not asking about the situation today, but another meaning. If it is said that the situation is like today, Pang Tong often follows Sima Hui and Xu Shu to listen to lectures, and he naturally understands. As for the other meaning of Xu Shu's words, Pang Tong is a little clear, and it should be related to what his uncle, that is, Pang Degong, said. However, it is not clear to him exactly how.

Xu Shu nodded, obviously knowing that Pang Tong didn't understand, and immediately told Pang Tong what Yuan Chang told him last night about the Shuntian Alliance's control of the world.

"What, Uncle Yuanzhi, are you saying that Youzhou Mu is the one who rebels against the sky?"

After listening to Xu Shu's words, Pang Tong finally couldn't continue to stay calm, exclaimed, and suddenly stood up. After a while, he suddenly realized that he was too excited, and he felt a little remorseful in his heart, and when he looked at it, he saw Xu Shu looking at himself with a smile on his face.

"Uncle Yuanzhi, have you noticed something?"

Pang Tong looked at Xu Shu's expression and said a little depressed. However, since Xu Shu has seen through it, he will no longer hide it. Moreover, Xu Shu was able to tell Yuan Chang to himself, and he was obviously not a person who would be unfavorable to him, so Pang Tong would no longer hide it.

"Before last night, I was just a little confused, not very clear. It wasn't until later, after listening to the lord's words, that I vaguely guessed that Brother Shang asked Gorou to come to Youzhou, presumably for Youzhou Mu. ”

In the past, when he was in Jingzhou, Xu Shu felt that Pang Degong was a little weird. Why do you feel this way? That is, Pang Degong will never leave the place where he lives, whether he or Sima Hui and others invite Pang Degong to go out, Pang Degong will never leave the small continent where he lives. Therefore, Pang Degong made Xu Shu feel a little weird, as if staying on the small continent was to protect something. Later, Pang Tong wanted to follow him to Youzhou, on the way, Xu Shu found that Pang Tong was holding the package tightly, for fear of being robbed by others, at that time, Xu Shu understood that the things Pang Tong was holding in his hands may be what Pang Degong has been guarding. Then, after Yuan Chang's words last night, Xu Shu finally understood that Pang Tong was coming to Youzhou to look for Yuan Chang, or rather, to find a rebel. Obviously, Pang Degong may already know such a thing, but he has no ability to change it, and what he guards may be an important object to change the situation. It is precisely because he understands this that Xu Shu will tell Pang Tong about the Shuntian Alliance. Otherwise, the matter of the Shuntian League is a big matter, and how can he sue others lightly. Just like the important thing that Pang Tong guards, no matter how close the person is, he can't sue until he is sure. And until now, Xu Shu finally understood why Pang Degong wanted to live separately from his wife and children, all in order to protect that thing, in order to return the world to a bright future, and no longer be controlled by others.

"Exactly!"

Pang Tong nodded very directly and said, "My nephew came here this time to hand over an important thing to the hands of the anti-heaven man on the order of his uncle. The uncle previously believed that Youzhou Mu was a rebel, but the nephew was still uncertain, so he wanted to stay in Youzhou for a while, and then hand over this thing to Youzhou Mu after being sure. Who knew that Youzhou Mu had already set out to conquer Goguryeo, and he knew that this was the case, and his nephew would directly identify himself before, and he would be able to fulfill his uncle's request. ”

Pang Tong's face seemed to be a little remorseful, I don't know if it was because he regretted passing by Yuan Chang, a rebel, or because he regretted his caution, so that he missed the best opportunity to reveal his identity.

After being annoyed, Pang Tong seemed to think of something again, and said excitedly: "By the way, Youzhou Mu has only been off for a day, and my nephew is now hurrying up, and he may be able to catch up with Youzhou Mu and inform Yu Youzhou Mu of this matter." ”

"Gorou, there's no need to be so excited!"

Xu Shu Pang Tong hurriedly stopped him and said: "Now that the lord has gone to Goguryeo, even if you tell the truth to the lord, can the lord still return to Beijing for this reason? Besides, you don't know the importance of that thing, and what is the use of it? If it hinders the great cause of the lord's conquest of Goguryeo, it will not be beautiful." So, now you just need to concentrate on your studies in Beijing and quietly wait for the lord to come back from Goguryeo. This time, Gorou, you and the lord missed it, which means that it is providence that you don't have to meet so early. Besides, now that you know the identity of the lord, you are still afraid that the lord's guild will not be able to escape. ”

Before, Xu Shu did not believe in fate. As a reader, I think fate is nothing more than a joke. However, after knowing the matter of the Shuntian League, Xu Shu knew that such a thing as fate existed. However, Xu Shu now believes in the existence of fate, but he will not listen to the arrangement of fate. He wants to follow Yuan Chang, break this world, eradicate the evil forces hidden behind the scenes and control the world, so that all the people in the world can control their own destiny, instead of being a pawn on the chessboard.

After listening to Xu Shu's words, Pang Tong also reacted and felt that what Xu Shu said was quite reasonable. At that moment, he calmed down, and with the psychology of seeking advice, he discussed the matter of Shuntianmeng with Xu Shu. Of course, Xu Shu would not refuse this, and the two talked like teachers and friends until late at night, when they turned off the lights and went back to rest.

On the other hand, after Yuan Chang finished arranging the affairs of Youzhou, he took Guo Jia, Dian Wei, and the elite of the 5,000 independent cavalry division to the battlefield in Liaodong County.

The army has been set off for more than 20 days, and it is almost about to reach Benxi City in Liaodong County, and I don't know if it will meet the army of Goguryeo. Of course, even if Yuan Chang is not on the battlefield, it is not a big problem to think about it. The two military horses that commanded the battle this time were Tai Shi Ci and Yu Ban, and the military capabilities of Tai Shi Ci and Yu Ban needless to say. In history, Tai Shi Ci, as the general of Eastern Wu, guarded the southern part of Eastern Wu and made the southern part of Eastern Wu peaceful for decades, and Tai Shi Ci can be said to have made great contributions; as for Yu Ban, even Cao Cao was afraid of Guan Yu and wanted to move the capital, but Cao Cao asked Yu Ban to command the troops to fight against Guan Yu, which shows the affirmation of the forbidden ability. As for the Seventh Army that was flooded by Guan Yu later, it can only be said that Guan Yu was ruthless enough to do this kind of thing to release water and flood the city. From Shu Han's standpoint, Guan Yu's approach is undoubtedly correct. However, from a moral point of view, Guan Yu's practice of flooding the city has violated morality, after all, there are still many people in the city. Historically, there are not many generals who will use this method to deal with the enemy. Also, about the history books that it is recorded that Yu Ban did not fight Guan Yu because he was jealous of Pang De, think about Cao Pi's dissatisfaction with Ban, you can know how much of it is smearing.

Therefore, Yuan Chang did not have the slightest worry about Tai Shi Ci fighting with Yu Ban to lead the army. And the reason why Yuan Chang wanted to go to the battlefield of Liaodong County in person was only to completely solve the problem of Goguryeo after the war. will not let Goguryeo be like in history, not long after Cao Cao destroyed Goguryeo, Goguryeo resurrected, and then continued to plague the Central Plains, Yuan Chang, as a person who came over, of course did not allow this to happen.

Therefore, although there was not much time for the army to reach Liaodong County, Yuan Chang was not too hurried.

One reason is to believe in Tai Shi Ci and Yu Ban's ability, and the other reason is to worry about Guo Jia's physical problems. Historically, Guo Jia died after the conquest of Karasuma, and the reason was that when he was conquest of Karasuma, he was worried that there would be problems in the rear, so he traveled day and night, and he was overworked, so he died. Of course, Yuan Chang did not allow this kind of thing to happen, and there was another reason why Guo Jia was not in good health in history, that is, taking pills, as a young man in the new century, how could Yuan Chang not understand the dangers of pills. Previously, Yuan Chang had already sued Guo Jia about the problem of pills, and Guo Jia had also stopped taking pills. It's just that he has been taking pills before, and Guo Jia's body has accumulated toxins, as for whether the toxins in his body have been completely removed, Yuan Chang is not clear, after all, there are no X-rays and other things that can check Guo Jia's body in these years. Therefore, based on these reasons, Yuan Chang's marching speed was not very fast, but only slightly faster than normal, and he hurried when Guo Jia's body was able to adapt.

When Yuan Chang and his entourage passed through Youbeiping County, Han Sui, the commander of the sub-military region stationed in Youbeiping County, also asked his cronies and soldiers to pass on military information.

The commanders of Karasuma's three Karasuma armies, Sanwang Nanlou, Su Fuyan and Uyan, are now leading Karasuma's army of 50,000 and are ready to move outside Youbeiping County. It's just that what makes Han Sui feel a little strange is that Nanlou, Su Fuyan and Karasuma divided the 50,000 army into three divisions, each commanding more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and stationed them in Pingquan, Chengde and Longhua respectively. Han Sui suspected that the other party had any conspiracy, so he ordered the army of Youbeiping County to hold the city tightly and not go out to fight the other party. Hearing that Yuan Chang and Guo Jia were going to the battlefield in Liaodong County, they sent soldiers of their cronies to inquire about Yuan Chang and Guo Jia.

After listening to the words of the messenger soldier, Guo Jia asked the messenger soldier to stretch out the map of Beiping County on the right, and after looking at it carefully, he pondered for a moment, chuckled, and said: "I see! Your lord, you also know that Karasuma is different from my Central Plains, they are the form of some tribes. Obviously, the reason why Nanlou, Su Muyan and Wuyan were divided into three places was because they did not have a good relationship with each other, and if it weren't for the outstanding ability of the Karasuma leader, Bandun, to bring the three kings under his command, I am afraid that they would still be fighting each other now. Therefore, the three of them each commanded their own tribe and the tribal elite close to them, so as not to be handed over to the other two and persecuted by the other two. In this way, they will not have too many problems when they divide their troops into three places. Lord, if you look at the map again, Longhua is the farthest place from Youbeiping County, and Wuyan's soldiers and horses are stationed here. Obviously, after the battle of Youzhou before, Wuyan began to fear the strength of our Youzhou, so he chose the farthest place from Youbeiping County to station the army. And the other Nanlou and Su Muyan didn't know the strength of my Youzhou, so they would station their soldiers and horses so close to Youbeiping County. It can also be seen from here that Karasuma did not tell Nanlou and Su Muyan about the situation in our Youzhou, which shows that their relationship has reached such a bad point. ”

After listening to Guo Jia's analysis, the soldier who sent the message suddenly had a sudden look on his face, and his admiration for Guo Jia was like a surging river, and he secretly said in his heart, he was worthy of being the number one strategist in Youzhou, and the most relied on strategist in Youzhou.

"You go back and tell Commander Han Sui that you can send two armies of soldiers and horses, each with 5,000 troops and horses, to attack Nanlou and Su Muyan's garrison at the same time. Judging from their relationship, Nanlou and Su Fuyan will definitely not support each other, they will only go to ask for help from Wuyan. However, Uyan will inevitably not send troops to help, and will not appear until the end of the war. When the time comes, Nanlou and Su Muyan will have nothing to say. In such a battle, we can boost the morale of our army and hit the morale of Karasuma. Of course, it is also possible to launch multiple battles, and it is important to make Karasuma's army withdraw thousands of miles away from the right Hokupaira Prefecture. ”

Guo Jia said with a straight face, and in the end, his face was straight, and he said solemnly: "There is one thing to remember to inform Commander Yu Han, so that he must arrange spies to closely investigate the situation of Karasuma's army, once Karasuma leader Bunton personally goes to the army, he must not go out of the city to fight." Because of the appearance of the three kings, the contradictions between the three kings will be temporarily suppressed, and at that time, with the strength of the right Beiping County, it will not be enough to fight with them. ”

"No!"

After listening to Guo Jia's words respectfully, the messenger soldiers slapped their horses quickly and returned to Kuancheng, where Han Sui was now stationed. And Yuan Chang and Guo Jia also embarked on a trip to Liaodong County again. (To be continued.) )
