Returning to Goguryi, Gongsun Du asked Yangyi to settle the migrating people as soon as possible in accordance with the established migration plan, and to prepare for a short rest, and then continue to migrate tomorrow to Xiangping. On the other hand, he went straight to the county guard mansion and sent someone to find Zhang Hong.

Zhang Hong did not greet him, but it was not disrespectful. In fact, Gongsun Du was in a hurry, not to mention that he had arrived early, and he had not yet sent someone to report the news, coupled with Gongsun Du's previous order, he was very busy at this time.

Therefore, when Zhang Hong got the news and rushed to the city gate, he ran into the soldiers sent by Gongsun Du to find him in the middle of the road, and then rushed to the county guard's mansion.

Back at the county guard's mansion, Zhang Hong learned from his subordinates that Gongsun Du was waiting for him in the study, and hurried to the study.

The soldiers outside the study had already been ordered by Gongsun Du, and when they saw Zhang Hong's arrival, they hurriedly said: "The lord has ordered, Lord Zhang can go in directly." ”

"Thank you!" Zhang Hong thanked him, and then stepped into the study.

Inside the study.

Gongsun Du was polishing the ink and was about to pick up a pen to write a letter when he heard a sound outside the door, so he stopped again.

Zhang Hong happened to see this scene and hurriedly said: "My lord! ”

Gongsun Du nodded and said, "Zigang is here!" You may be seated! ”

After speaking, it is time to get up and pour tea.

"My lord, just come here." Zhang Hong's eyes were quick, and he picked up the teapot and poured a cup for Gongsun Du first, and then poured himself a cup.

Gongsun Du didn't say much, took a sip of warm tea, and said slowly: "Zigang, how long have you been in Liaodong?" ”

Zhang Hong had received the order before, and he was puzzled in his heart, and he wanted to take the opportunity to ask, but he didn't want to ask this question, so he was puzzled, but he still replied: "Go back to my lord, Hong has been here for half a year." ”

"Half a year?" Gongsun Du seemed to recall, "Time flies so fast! ”

"I especially remember that I had to ask Zigang to go on a trip and chase after him in a hurry...... In the end, Zigang and a certain returned to Liaodong together, but I didn't expect it to be half a year in a blink of an eye. ”

Zhang Hong also fell into memories, and with Gongsun Du's words, his eyes gradually became more moved.

The two woke up from their memories and smiled at each other.

Then, Gongsun Du said: "Half a year ago, Zigang traveled for a certain reason, and today I don't know if Zigang has any plans to continue to travel the world?" ”

"Although a certain official is low, but my father is still a little thin in Luoyang, if Zigang is interested, a certain letter, it is not impossible to worship under Mrs. Hu!"

Zhang Hong couldn't help but breathe when he heard this, just because the Hu Taifu in Gongsun Du's mouth, with a wide name and a long history, is the oldest of the existing Confucians, has exceeded the ancient rarity, and is one of the most knowledgeable people, even Cai Yong is also his student, so it is conceivable that if you don't say worship under his door, you must have gained a lot if you can listen to the teachings.

However, although Zhang Hong was moved, reason still prevailed. He felt that Gongsun Du's actions today were very strange, although Gongsun Du did not explicitly say that he would take him under his command in the past, but the meaning was already self-evident. It's just that he still has concerns in his heart, so he didn't worship the Lord, but if he didn't have the intention, he wouldn't help Gongsun Du manage the county here, and the two of them knew this.

Now, Gongsun Duming said that he would introduce a good teacher to him, but he didn't drive him away.

What's going on here?

Zhang Hong's heart was full of doubts.

Gongsun Du felt Zhang Hong's gaze, smiled bitterly in his heart, and said secretly: Can I still tell you that Liaodong is likely to be unable to stop Xianbei's army and fall into Xianbei's hands in the near future?

One person, one county, and a country, although Xianbei is sparsely populated, and almost all of them are cavalry, which is not conducive to the siege of the city, but Gongsun Du is still not half sure, even if he thinks that he has more than two thousand years of knowledge, the experience of the third generation, is also the same. If Xianbei attacked the Han Dynasty, he could be a year or two earlier, Gongsun Du would not choose this place to start, or a year or two later, Gongsun Du also thought that he would have a chance of winning.

Even with the help of the imperial court, it is not impossible to repel the army of Tanshi Huai in one fell swoop.

But now Gongsun Du is fledgling, there are only more than 10,000 soldiers under his command, and the imperial court has just experienced the change of the throne, difficult, difficult, difficult!

Is this a momentary negligence, and it will lose everything?

Whether it is or not, Gongsun Du does not want Zhang Hong to die because of this. If he lives one more Zhang Hong, it is to add a heritage to the Han people, if he dies, or is captured alive by Xianbei, it is to weaken the heritage. Once Gongsun Du can't escape the robbery of this Xianbei attack and dies on the battlefield, then the chaos in the future is likely to be even more serious.

This may be a bit heavier, but you must know that not only Zhang Hong, but also Xu Rong, Liu Yi, Wei You and others, as well as Mi Zhu, this has a lot of impact.

Butterflies can flap their wings and survive a tsunami, and several people die, which may not be able to cause major changes.

"A few months ago, a certain sent Qin Gun to Luoyang, but he has not returned yet, and he is worried that something will happen, so Zigang is not only going to study, but also has the important task of investigating the details on behalf of a certain person."

Gongsun Du made an excuse and said, "That's so." Zigang is also invited to leave for Luoyang early tomorrow morning. ”

If Gongsun Du was just making excuses, without the following sentence, Zhang Hong might have believed it.

"My lord, I'm not good at finding out the news, so it's better to find someone else." Zhang Hong shook his head, and learned from Gongsun Du to find an excuse to refuse.

Gongsun Du's heart was as disgusting as stepping on dog shit at this time, but he couldn't say anything about your nonsense or anything like that, who let him make excuses first, he could only swallow the bitter fruit.

However, Gongsun Du did not give up, thinking hard about how to let Zhang Hong leave.

Zhang Hong also thought about the reason. Why did he have to let him go?

Gongsun Du didn't know what he was doing at this time, which caused Zhang Hong's thoughts, and he was silent in his own hard thoughts.

The study fell silent for a moment, leaving only two faint breathing sounds.

Abrupt.

Zhang Hong opened his mouth and said: "My lord, as my lord said, it is better to read ten thousand books than to travel ten thousand miles. In the past six months, Hong believes that he has learned much more than in the previous one or two decades. ”

"So, if the adults can't give a reasonable reason, it's impossible for Hong to leave."

Gongsun Du was shocked when he heard this, and then smiled bitterly: "Zigang, what are you talking about?" How could someone have the intention of driving you away. ”

Immediately, Gongsun Du figured it out, and his previous words were regarded as lifting a stone and hitting his own feet, but now he can only tell the truth.

How can a gentleman deceive him!

Gongsun Du then told the story of Xianbei going south and invading the border county of Dahan.

Hearing this, Zhang Hong's heart was shocked.

After finishing speaking, Gongsun Du didn't wait for Zhang Hong to speak, and said: "Therefore, I hope that Zigang can temporarily leave Liaodong, and he can temporarily leave the dangerous place; Second, he was worried that the imperial court would not be able to get the news for a while, and hoped that Zigang could pass the message on his behalf; Third, if the court can't make up its mind for a while, I also ask Zigang to inform my father of this matter and ask him to make a statement to His Majesty. ”

"Finally." Gongsun Du took a deep breath and said slowly, "It is also the most critical point, this time Xianbei raised more than 100,000 troops, even if there were only 10,000 or 20,000 people killed to Xuansu, it was not something that could be resisted, if you want to solve the danger of Liaodong and Xuansu, you can only focus on it from the outside." ”

"A certain has sent people to the three tribes of Buyeo, Louru, and Goguryeo to spread the news that Xianbei is going to attack them. At that time, even if they don't send troops, just being vigilant, they can also involve one or two of Xianbei's energy. ”

"The most important thing now is that I am worried that the imperial court will not be able to send enough people, so I hope that Zigang can give advice to the generals selected by the imperial court when necessary to attract Xianbei's attention."

At this time, Xianbei came to attack in a big way, and now the more than 10,000 men and horses in Liaodong want to defend the six cities, which is tantamount to wishful thinking, only according to what Gongsun Du said, can there be a glimmer of life, but it is not false at all.

It's just that Gongsun Du said so much, and he couldn't escape a little, that is, let him leave, so that he could have a chance to live. Yes, Zhang Hong's eyes suddenly stopped, and he got up and bowed down: "Hong, meet the lord!" ”

Gongsun Du couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, if it was in the past, he would have liked this, but now he didn't dare to respond.

Zhang Hong said: "If the lord should not, Hong will definitely not go to Luoyang." ”

At this point, what else can Gongsun Du say, as long as Zhang Hong can leave, but he is also overjoyed to be able to worship the master, and stretches out his hand to help Zhang Hong and says: "Hahaha, a certain sub-gang is like a fish in water, King Wen has to be a prince, and Gaozu has to stay in the marquis, why worry about the big thing!" ”

"The lord praised it!" Zhang Hong said modestly.

Gongsun Du waved his hand and said, "In this case, there will inevitably be an accident, so Zigang will set off tomorrow." ”

After speaking, Gongsun Du returned to the desk and picked up the pen to write the letter.

"Yes, my lord." Zhang Hong replied and waited aside.

When Gongsun Du finished writing, he set it aside to dry. Zhang Hong said: "Lord, there is a way to stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, if you can't do anything, you can retreat to Lelang and take the party, and wait for the imperial army to repel the Xianbei army, and then come back not too late." ”

"Well, so-and-so got it." Gongsun Du didn't say good, nor did he say bad, "In addition, pay attention to the news of Qin Gun to see what happened to the accident." ”

"Yes, my lord." Zhang Hong thought that Gongsun Du had heard his suggestion, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
