"If something goes wrong, it's a demon."

Cold winds, snow, and nights. Tai Shi Ci stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, looking at the snowflakes floating outside the house, and muttered quietly. Behind him, Guo Jia, who was the owner of the house, sat cross-legged on the couch and yawned lazily, and greeted, "Ziyi came here in the snow, should he just come to the cold house to see the scenery?" Come on, come on, let's have a few drinks with Jia first. ”

After that, Guo Jia took out two white porcelain wine bottles from the corner like a trick, and placed one in front of the brazier; The other bottle was uncorked and took a big sip with his neck raised. In an instant, Guo Jiana's originally slightly pale cheeks were flushed with a sickly red.

Faced with Guo Jia's posture of never leaving his body, although Tai Shici knew that Cai Ji had banned Guo Jia, he still stepped forward to pick up the wine bottle and sat with him. After all, on this cold and freezing day, Tai Shici also needs a sip of warm wine to activate his blood and spirits.

Seeing Tai Shi Ci drinking wine together, Guo Jia's face showed a smile, "I just heard Zi Yi's words and 'if something goes abnormal, it is a demon'. Ziyi is worried about the lord's trip to Youzhou? ”

Tai Shi Ci'er listened to Guo Jia's words and hit his own thoughts, and couldn't help but put the wine bottle in his hand on the couch, and said in a deep voice Don't hide your filial piety, although Wen He's plan is clever, but with forgiveness, it is now in the middle of winter, which is not conducive to attacking the city. At this time, the lord led the troops north, but most of them would do nothing in military affairs. On the contrary, such an unreasonable act may also arouse Yuan Shao's suspicion. Even if Yuan Shao himself didn't care about this matter, there were many capable people under his command, so how could he not see the suspicions. It is true that the lord went north, Wen Youwen was accompanied, and General Wu Zhongchun and others were escorted, so as long as the lord acted, it would not be a big problem. But...... Ci always felt that the lord's trip to Youzhou was too hasty. ”

After Tai Shici finished speaking, he lifted the wine bottle and took another sip of water and wine, but his face did not turn red due to the effect of alcohol, but became more and more gloomy like water under the beating of the lamp. Because Tai Shi Ci knew very well that what he had just said could not change Cai Ji's decision. Now Cai Ji has already taken the warship to Youzhou.

It turned out that not long after Lü Bu's sneak attack on Shouchun, Cai Ji left Zhang Jaw in Xuzhou to consolidate Langya with Xiao Jian, the Shou of Langya County, and suppressed Lü Bu's army in Xiapi. And she herself returned to Donglai Huang County with Jia Xu in an extremely low-key manner under the escort of her personal escort. Later, Cai Ji informed Guo Jia, Tai Shici and other confidants of Jia Xu's advances in Langyatai and her own determination to deal with Yuan Shao.

Everyone was not surprised by Cai Ji's idea of getting rid of Yuan Shao. After all, whether it is Guo Jia, Wang Xiu, or Tai Shici, they don't have a good impression of Yuan Shao. In addition, after the Yuan family's Tan made such a fuss last year, the originally unreliable relationship between Donglai and the Yuan family became even more estranged. If it weren't for Yuan Shao's current desire to exterminate Gongsun Zan and unify Hebei, he would still have to rely on Donglai's supply of money and grain, and even see that Cai Ji could still resist Lu Bu. I'm afraid that as early as when Cai Ji entered the Xu Capital to face the saint, Yuan Shao had already waved his army south to ask for Donglai.

And Jia Xu's words are not subtle. After more than two years of hard work, Cai Ji has also gathered many strategists and famous generals around him. Although everyone knows that if Donglai wants to continue to develop, he must break away from his subordination with Yuan Shao. But when it comes to the specifics of detaching, in the name of the kind, there are different opinions. It is rare for Jia Xu to be able to point out a feasible path for Cai Ji to get out of Yuan's control. Therefore, in terms of the general direction, everyone, like Cai Ji, unanimously agreed with the strategy set by Jia Xu. However, on the issue of whether Cai Ji went north to Youzhou, Tai Shici raised an objection as a military general.

Although Tai Shi Ci did not say as much as Guo Jia said today, the general meaning was still the same. That is, Youzhou in winter is not suitable for siege warfare. Cai Ji went to Youzhou at this time, either Yuan Shao used him as a stepping stone to attack the city, or Yuan Shao would suspect the purpose of going north. However, after weighing the pros and cons, Cai Ji finally decided to take Jia Xu, Pang Tong, Zhang Liao, Tang Ying, and Wen Rui, together with the Five Elements Banner, to go north to Youzhou by sea. Of course, in order to explain to Yuan Shao, Cai Ji will also transfer another 3,000 armor soldiers to accompany him. As for the three counties of Donglai, Beihai and Langya, they are respectively controlled by Tai Shici, Wang Xiu, and Zhang Jaw. Of course, these are all arrangements on the surface, and as for the various hidden piles set up by Cai Ji in the Central Plains, Guo Jia coordinated them together.

Although Tai Shici failed to convince Cai Ji, he still faithfully fulfilled the task assigned by Cai Ji. It's just that seeing that the weather is gradually getting colder, Tai Shici still can't hold back the worries in his heart, and comes to discuss with Guo Jia. After all, Guo Jia, as the mastermind of Donglai, has always been highly valued by Cai Ji.

However, after listening to Tai Shici's opinions at this moment, Guo Jia himself seemed quite calm. saw that he shook the wine bottle in his hand, which was already half empty, and then coughed lightly and said, "What Ziyi said is not unreasonable. However, the lord that Yijia saw went north this time, with the intention of plotting, not cutting down the army. It is not a bad thing to go to Youzhou in the midwinter truce season, and the lord will decide on his own. ”

If so...... Xu is too kind. ”

Tai Shi Ci nodded slightly hesitantly. But how could this little change in his expression escape Guo Jia's eyes. saw Guo Jia glance at Tai Shici meaningfully, and asked, "Ziyi has something else to worry about?" Since you're here, let's hear about it together. ”

Tai Shi Ci already had something in his heart, and at this time, at the instigation of Guo Jia, he took advantage of the strength of the wine and the words just now, and opened his mouth to ask, "What does Feng Xiao think of Wen He?" ”

"After reaching the power change, it is the talent of Liangping." Guo Jia commented calmly.

"That's all?" Tai Shi Ci frowned and asked. In fact, Tai Shici couldn't say what was wrong with Jia Xu, but the soldier's intuition made him always feel that the old man was unfathomable. At the same time, it is also difficult to trust Jia Xu as much as Guo Jia trusts. Of course, this may also be related to Jia Xu's short time joining Cai Ji's camp, so Tai Shici has not talked to anyone about Jia Xu's concerns before.

"Ziyi, it doesn't matter what Jia Wenhe's plans are. It is important that we work together to help the Lord succeed. When Guo Jia said this, he smiled slyly as if he had seen through Tai Shici's thoughts, "Don't worry, there is still that kid following the lord." ”

"Ahh

Facing the early morning light, Pang Tong let out a loud sneeze on the deck. After taking a deep breath, the boy walked to the side of the boat with his hands behind his back. However, as far as the eye can see, the blue-gray water is everywhere, and only a few petrels occasionally pass by in the sky, indicating that the fleet is not far from land. In fact, Pang Tong's Feiyun, together with the fleet that followed it, had already left Longkou Port for more than a month. At this moment, even if you see land, it should be the coastline of Liaodong.

As soon as he thought that he was about to set foot in Youzhou and go deep into the hinterland of the Yuan clan with Cai Ji, Pang Tong's hands behind him subconsciously clenched. Shaking the overlord of one side with the strength of four or two thousand catties is a feat that any strategist dreams of, and he Pang Tong is participating in it at this moment at an age that is not yet a weak crown. Whether it is out of repaying Cai Ji's kindness or out of his ambition to realize, Pang Tong feels that he needs to do a good job, and at the same time proves to the world that not only Yingchuan can produce strategists, but also the children of Jingzhou Lumen can also produce talents in the world.

"Kong Ming, when will you be able to go north? The world has moved, and time is not waiting for me," Pang Tong said silently in his heart.

Before leaving Donglai, Pang Tong wrote several letters to the trustee to take back to his hometown in Jingzhou, both for his family and for his friends. But only in the letter to Zhuge Liang, he mentioned that he was about to go north to Youzhou. Because Pang Tong, with Zhuge Liang's intelligence, should be able to see between the lines that there is about to change in the north. It must be known that since Pang Tong came out of Donglai, he has repaired books no less than three times to persuade Zhuge Liang to go north to Donglai. Because Pang Tong knew very well that the high-ranking officials could not impress his friends, he talked about how the decrees of Donglai were usual, how the people of Donglai lived in peace, and how strong the soldiers and horses of Donglai were. At the same time, he also mentioned the previous trip to Xudu, as well as the current movements of the major princes. In short, Pang Tong hoped that after seeing this, Zhuge Liang would be able to leave the thatched house in Longzhong and strategize the world together.

However, to Pang Tong's disappointment, Zhuge Liang did not reveal any intention of going north in his reply. On the contrary, in his reply, he persuaded Pang Tong more than once to assist Cai Ji to be loyal to the Han family. To be honest, Cai Ji has always been in awe of the Han family. Whether it was borrowing troops to rescue the driver in the early years, or later submitting the book, and then sending troops to fight against Yuan and Lu Eryi. Compared with the actions of most princes, Cai Ji is completely worthy of the word Hanchen. It's just that Pang Tong himself is not interested in the Han family. In his opinion, the country has fallen to this point, and the Han royal family needs to bear a lot of responsibility. In addition, during the trip to Xudu, Liu Xie, the son of today, did not leave a deep impression on Pang Tong. Therefore, if someone can replace Liu, Pang Tong will not be surprised. Of course, Pang Tong also knows that Zhuge Liang has a stubborn temper that although he dies nine times, he still has no regrets. As long as it is the truth that he recognizes, even if he wants to act against the sky, he will not hesitate to do so.

Therefore, after hesitating again and again, Pang Tong finally decided to reveal his trip to Youzhou to Zhuge Liang. I hope to make Zhuge Liang feel moved. After all, Jingzhou's pattern is too small, and even if it can really realize the long-standing "Dingzu theory" in Jingzhou, the result is just a corner of the territory. And judging from what Cai Ji is doing now, his plans will never stop at just sitting on one place.

Thinking about this, Pang Tong suddenly felt cold under his nose, and couldn't help but subconsciously sniff his nose. For Pang Tong, who has been studying in Jing and Yang all year round, the endless sea does not make him sick to his stomach, but the cold sea breeze on the Bohai Sea will make him involuntarily hang his nose. In order not to let this bad scenery continue, the young man decisively decided to go back to the cabin and wait for the meal. But as soon as he turned around, there was a cheer behind him.

The young man's Pang Tong couldn't help but look back, and when he saw a dozen sailors on the bow deck, the men who were hugging dancing sticks cheered repeatedly. And that man is the general Zhang Liao who went north with Cai Ji this time. Although the weather on the Bohai Sea was unusually cold, Zhang Liao was still naked and showed a body of iron-and-stone muscles. And the eight-foot stick in his hand, thorns or picks, whirring with sweat, like a swimming dragon leaping into the sea.

"This man is also holding back his strength and wants to make a contribution." Pang Tong didn't know how to stick or shoot, but as a layman, he could feel the other party's state of mind from Zhang Liao's moves and styles at the moment.

It is said that Zhang Liao and Pang Tong joined Cai Ji almost at the same time. But Pang Tong first entered the Xu capital with Cai Ji in the past year, and then experienced the changes of Wancheng. Now, it seems that he has integrated into Donglai's strategist group and has become Cai Ji's confidant. On the other hand, Zhang Liao has always been on hold in Donglai, and although Cai Ji treated him with courtesy, he did not let him participate in any battle in Donglai. If it weren't for Cai Ji personally naming Zhang Liao to accompany him this time, few people would remember that there was such a person under his lord's command. However, although Zhang Liao is not well-known in Donglai, Pang Tong is a man who will have earth-shattering achievements in the near future. Because they all have a certain desire in their eyes, a desire that has been suppressed for a long time.

"Wow, it's really lively here."

A crisp voice interrupted Zhang Liao's dancing stick, and at the same time attracted the attention of everyone present. I don't know when Cai Ji has been standing behind Pang Tong. The young female envoy was dressed in a silver mouse-colored mink fur jacket covered with a crimson feather veil and a white fox and crane, which at first glance looked quite northern.

"I've seen the envoy." Zhang Liao put away his military stick and stepped forward to give Cai Ji a military salute.

Perhaps because of the reservedness of the martial arts, Zhang Liao has not called Cai Ji the main prince until today. But Cai Ji himself didn't care about it. I saw that she motioned to Duan Emei, who was accompanying her, to put a coat on Zhang Liao, and on the other hand, she asked and said that it was cold in the north, and the general still needed to pay attention to his body when practicing martial arts. ”

Facing the coat handed by Duan Emei, Zhang Liao was stunned at first, and then calmly took it, and bowed down to thank Cai Ji. In fact, Zhang Liao was not the only one on this ship, and he was silent. From the moment Zhang Liao saluted Cai Ji, Pang Tong noticed that there was not only a one-eyed female flag master behind Cai Ji, but also Jia Xu, who rarely appeared on the boat. As usual, the old man, who was the initiator of the trip to Youzhou, hid in the corner on crutches as usual, and looked at the people present with his half-squinted eyes. And when Pang Tong's gaze subconsciously made friends with Jia Xu, the young strategist couldn't help but stir the spirit. But he didn't look away, but met it without fear.

"Land and land envoys, Jinxi is here" The excited shouts of the sailors on the lookout interrupted the eyes between Pang Tong and Jia Xu. At the same time, everyone followed the sound and looked at it, and saw a slender gray-brown python lying across the sea and sky, and as the sails bulged, the python's body gradually lengthened and thickened, until the blue-gray back composed of layers of coniferous trees was revealed.

At this moment, Cai Ji, who was standing on the deck, showed a proud smile, "Youzhou, I'll come too"
