In winter, heavier snow begins to brew.

Since the Subu Gudu Marquis hunted wounded back, the Southern Xiongnu scattered slave raiders began to shrink from the counties, get rid of the pursuit of the Han generals, after each has a victory or defeat, in the winter of the severe cold, have to strike the troops back, the loss of the Han border is naturally serious, the county Taishou will report the loss to the table of the assassin history, on the one hand is to repel the Huns, on the other hand is the responsibility of dereliction of duty, this year is afraid that the days are not good.

Yanmen County a little south, the loss is the smallest, Guo Miao's contribution to send troops to help the foil is no longer able to run, the mansion is naturally festive and condensed, and the officials in the city also went to congratulate, for these behind, when this Taishou was alone, he looked at the direction of the northern grassland, revealing solemnity.

"After driving away a pack of wolves, do you still want to raise a pack of wolves?"

The firelight flickered, shining on Guo Miao's face, staring at the cloth on the desk, hesitated for a moment before starting to write.

It reads: Miao kowtowed, the Huns have retreated, the people in the county have been at peace, Jianyang Gong also please be relieved, my county also relies on a county official, very martial arts, Miao knows that Jianyang Gong likes warriors, although the yellow scarf in the world is flat, but the cruelty is not clear, now recommended to the public, set up a right arm, but also let the ambitious people have a great deal, Yanmen County is too shou Guo Miao said.

The pen fell the last word, and immediately stopped, he picked up the cloth silk and blew it, put it aside, and began to write the second cloth silk, probably to tell the relationship between a group of horse thieves in the north and Yanmen County, and after making it clear that this was a road to extra money, Guo Miao called his henchmen and handed over two different letters to the other party.

"Remember, give the first copy to Ding Tingshi as soon as possible, and the second copy will be quietly transferred to Mrs. Thorn Shi's younger brother."

The henchman carefully kicked the two letters into his bosom and left the city overnight with a few guards. Guo Miao stood under the eaves and looked at the flying wind and snow, her eyes confused.

"Daddy... Daddy..."

A childish child's voice came, and a child about two years old staggered up the stone steps under the eaves, and stretched out his little arms: "Hug... Hold..."

"Huai'er ran out alone, where is your mother?" Guo Miao picked up the child, brushed the snowflakes on his head and said a few words, his thoughts drifted away again, and his eyes looked south. The young Guo Huai tilted his head, swaying with a smile and grinning as he stroked his father's long beard.

In winter, the sky was getting dark very quickly, and it was about to fall into the night, and the lights of the streets of the county and the torches of the city gates merged, and the people were full of people, driving the procession of beasts into the city like a long line.

Compared with the noisy below, two figures walked side by side on the city wall, and the man in blue robe and armor looked at the cattle and sheep that were driving into the city one after another at the city gate, and the wind and snow hit his face, and he sighed a little.

"The leader of Gongsun is very capable, the Huns should have tasted the feeling of being ruined and killed, but it's a pity that Liao is responsible for defending the city, and he can't drive the Hu people with my Han soldiers and take back the people, it's a pity."

Gongsun Zhi laughed, slapped his hand on the female wall, and faced out of the city: "Nawen is far better than crossing the grassland with me and doing the pleasure of killing all the Hulu." ”

Over there, Zhang Liao approached and arched his hand: "The leader of Gongsun laughed, but Liao still has to be grateful to the people in the border areas." It's just that what you do in the grassland is military training......"

“…… The reputation of the leader of Gongsun spread to the north, but it is not that no one has seen through the essence behind it, the family and country have not collapsed, what the leader of Gongsun has done, what is the trouble, he will inevitably let the soldiers of the counties encircle and suppress it in the future. He looked at the silent figure over there, and sighed out of friendship between the two.

The wind and snow on the city wall filled the sight, and the plush on the big wall was mixed with snowflakes.

Gongsun Zhi propped his elbows on the wall and watched the bags of grain loaded onto the carriage: "If I said that I sat in the position of the leader of the horse thieves for self-protection, and now I want to grow stronger for self-protection so as not to be eaten, Wen Yuan, do you believe it?" ”

"Faith!" Zhang Liao nodded, but his fist smashed on the wall, "You and I intersect, naturally believe in you as a person, but others will not believe it, a big official, how can you let an outsider's cavalry wander around, unless you are far away from the grassland desert, Liao doesn't want him to see you in a different place one day." ”

"That'...... What if I go back to the Central Plains? ”

Zhang Liao shook his head: "There is no way, the imperial court will not see someone bring troops into the country." ”

In the future, Gongsun Zhi knew better than him, Hanwei collapsed, the court was overwhelmed, and the princes were in civil strife, who could stop him from returning to the Central Plains? It's just that I don't know what year it is, he doesn't like to read history, he only knows some general trends and some familiar characters.

The two of them fell silent one after another, the grain loaded below, the cattle and sheep and the people counted were still continuing, and after a while, Zhang Liao opened his mouth first.

"How did you escape from the Hun siege?"

"Run?" The figure next to him laughed, waved his arm, stirring the snowflakes, "Wen Yuan is lifting them, these people are coming back and taking prisoners, how can they deal with me?" However, there were several Hun cavalry chasing me, but they were all thrown away, and then they went back to their homes, smashed and looted, and slaughtered all their grain, cattle and sheep for the winter. ”

Hearing the bold words, Zhang Liao laughed alongside him, "I'm afraid it's more than that, without too much food, they can only rob smaller tribes, or be merged by other Xiongnu tribes, and there will only be more deaths." ”

"Oh, really?" Gongsun Zhi grinned, "Next year, I will call Shangwen Yuan to go with me, and we should bully and bully them." ”

Zhang Liao arched his hand: "Okay, that's it." ”

On the city wall, the two looked at the busy city, talking happily, the soldiers on the wall listened to the conversation between the two, and their faces were also relaxed, after all, during this time, the news of the Huns' border came every day, which made people look tired.

Soon after, the sky gradually brightened, and the wind and snow did not stop......

The wheels of the car made a deep mark of a finger, someone waved in the wind and snow, and the blue-robed and armored figure rode a horse and threw his hand over to that side, sending away the team full of food.

Heavy snow fell all over the sky and the earth, and it was white.

*********************************************************

A few days later, the state was annexed to Jinyang.

In Dingfu, the burly old man with long white sideburns looked through the cloth several times.

"This Guo Miao is still so polite to me, but this Zhang Wenyuan seems to be an old acquaintance with Fengxian, if he is outstanding in martial arts, he can find someone to engage in it."

Putting down the cloth, the old man knelt down and gave instructions to the servant who was waiting: "Go and ask Feng to come to my house first." ”

"Yes." The servant bowed and withdrew.

Immediately, Ding Yuan waved to the person who sent the letter: "You go down and rest, the wind and snow have been too strong recently, and it is not too late to go out of the city tomorrow." ”

That person was naturally the henchman of Guo Miao, the Taishou of Yanmen County, and the other party thanked him and retreated respectfully, but when he was not paying attention, he slipped to the side courtyard and handed the second letter to a middle-aged man.

"This is the way to make money, hahaha-" The man walked back and forth in the room with the letter, his excitement overflowing, "Guo Miao is too guarded to be good, you go down to claim the reward." ”

said, pushed open the door, and went straight to his sister, who was Ding Yuan's wife.

PS: Second more. Also, can you see Guo Miao's strategy?
