The news that Xun Yu said, Han Zhan knew in a few days, he didn't think that those Taishou and county orders would collectively lose their sincerity to himself for Geng Wu Min Chun's few words, he only hoped that when he led his troops through these cities, they could make way for him, thank God.

And Xun You obviously thought of a place with him, he pointed to the map and asked: "Envoy, there are more than 400 miles of roads from Sheguo County to Jizhou, half of which are rugged and difficult mountain roads. I would like to ask how we can transport this amount of grain and grass to Jizhou in time if these cities along the way are unwilling to provide us with grain and grass. ”

As a later generation of employees of a transportation company, Han Zhan was well aware of the importance of logistical supply in war. If the cities along the way did not provide food and grass for their own army, once a war with Yuan Shao began, a supply line of 400 miles long would be enough to drag themselves down. Therefore, after much thought, he said thoughtfully: "What Cousin Gongda said is extremely true, even if we have a large number of wheelbarrows now, due to the limited number of people we can recruit, it is a trouble to complete the transportation of more than 200 miles of mountain roads. I thought that every seventy miles, a warehouse was set up to store the grain and grass needed by the army. In this way, even if the cities along the way refuse to provide food and grass, we can get supplies nearby. ”

"Zhan'er is very thoughtful." Regarding Han Zhan's statement, Xun Yu expressed his support in a timely manner: "I will personally take people to survey the terrain tomorrow and choose a place where a warehouse can be set up." ”

After Han Zhan nodded, he continued to Xun Yu: "Uncle, please send someone to Jizhou overnight to contact the two lords Geng Wu and Min Chun, and find out which cities are willing to provide us with grain and grass when we march, so that we can also know in our hearts." ”

"Okay," Xun Yu replied briskly, "I will send my cronies to Jizhou as soon as possible to contact the two adults, Geng Wu and Min Chun." ”

After Xun's uncle and nephew left, Han Zhan sat alone in the study, staring at the picture on the table in a daze. The plan for sending troops has been formulated, and when Gongsun Chan and Yuan Shao start a war, he can stab Yuan Shao in the back by surprise. But what is the justifiable reason for sending troops this time?

Just when Han Zhan was worried, Patch walked in from outside lightly and reported to him: "Childe, County Lieutenant Zhao has an urgent matter to see outside!" ”

Zhao Yun is in a hurry to see? When Han Zhan heard the patch say this, he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, and said in his heart, is there something wrong? Hurriedly ordered: "Please! ”

Zhao Yun walked in the door and was about to salute Han Zhan, but Han Zhan grabbed his arm first, and asked anxiously, "Zilong, you are in such a hurry to see me, is something wrong?" ”

For some reason, Zhao Yun actually showed an embarrassed look on his face when he heard Han Zhan ask this. When Han Zhan saw it, he was even more anxious, and after he pulled Zhao Yun to sit down, he asked again: "Zilong, what happened, you should say something." ”

Zhao Yun, who had just sat down, stood up again, and said with a red face: "Envoy, Yun has your trust, I am really ashamed of you." ”

"Zilong, you sit down first." After Han Zhan beckoned Zhao Yun to sit down, he asked confusedly, "What the hell happened, you confused me." ”

"Envoy," Zhao Yun lowered his head and said with difficulty, "You once asked me to ask my aunt to marry Zhen Mi's cousin. My aunt replied today, rejecting the envoy's proposal. ”

"What, Mrs. Zhen rejected my proposal?" When Han Zhan heard Zhao Yun say this, his heart couldn't help but sink suddenly, and he said secretly: "It's over, a peerless beauty like Zhen Mi wants to cheapen that guy Yuan Xi." ”

Thinking of Yuan Xi and Zhen Mi, Han Zhan suddenly remembered a post he had read in later generations. The post said that Cao Jun occupied Yecheng in September, and Cao Pi Na Zhen Mi was his wife, and in January of the following year, Cao Rui was born. No matter how you look at it, Cao Pi looks like a father. However, someone immediately refuted, saying that if Cao Pi was happy to be his father, then how could Cao Cao tolerate Cao Rui to survive and become the emperor of Wei. The two factions are public and reasonable, and the mother says that the mother is reasonable, and they quarrel fiercely. If it really follows the original trajectory and Zhen Mi marries Yuan Xi, he may be able to figure out this eternal mystery.

Seeing that Han Zhan didn't speak for a long time, Zhao Yun's heart became uneasy. After a fierce ideological struggle, he said cautiously: "Envoy, my sister is too young, and it is understandable that my aunt refuses this family business. My sister-in-law Xiahou Yun, born in a famous family, can be literate and martial, she just turned 20 this year, I don't know if the envoy likes her? ”

Hearing that Zhao Yun suddenly acted as a matchmaker for himself, Han Zhan couldn't help but feel funny in his heart, and he said teasingly: "Miss Xiahou is already twenty years old, three years older than me. But it's not bad, as the saying goes: female juniors hold gold bricks. If this envoy marries the Xiahou girl, he may be able to make a fortune. ”

Zhao Yun heard that Han Zhan was actually joking with him, and knew in his heart that he didn't mind too much about the failure of the courtship, but on the contrary, he seemed to be interested in Xiahou Yun. So he struck while the iron was hot and said: "If the envoy has a good impression of my righteous sister, I can immediately go and discuss with my righteous brother Xiahou Lan and settle this matter with him." ”

Han Zhan was worried about finding out the reason for the army, so he naturally didn't have the heart to talk about marriage, so he quickly changed the topic: "Zilong, now that the Black Mountain Army has formed an alliance with us, the matter of going to Jizhou is on the agenda. I don't know how the recruits we recruited in the early stage are fighting hard? ”

"Please rest assured." Zhao Yun hurriedly replied: "Almost all of these recruits have gone to clear out the bandits, and they have seen blood somewhat, even if they go to the battlefield, they have the strength to fight." ”
