The sun is setting, the bloody gas is diffused in all directions, the shadow of the goshawk flies under the clouds, overlooking the earth, the shadow figure is walking, its field of vision, all the color of blood red, the paved corpse is being dragged into the hands of people and thrown into the dug pit for burial. The curtain of the king's tent was lifted, and the drunken and meat-filled figures strode out, frowning when they smelled the smell outside, and then left with words.

"Wenyou, you stay."

The figure who walked at the end was stopped, turned around to salute again, sat down again, glanced at Gongsun Zhi in the first place, Li Ru smiled and slowly raised his hand: "The leader is actually worried about the affairs of the Huns?" ”

Over there, Gongsun Zhi beckoned Li Ke to pour a little water to moisten his throat, and then turned his head: "That's true, charging into battle, we can't let my Han people suffer too many casualties, but once the Huns are used, I am worried that it may become bigger in the future, I am still fine, if I die one day, the situation will inevitably get out of control." ”

Li Ru picked up the clear water and pecked it quite gently, "Leader, these Xianbei people killed today should have been killed to show the slaves, which made him shake in his heart, presumably the leader actually has a case in his heart, but he can't figure out whether he should continue to do it at the moment, after all, the chessboard is too big." ”

"I have the strength to spare but not enough, I can't be cautious in every move......" Gongsun put down the bowl heavily, looked away from the table, and stayed on the face of the scribe, "Since Wenyou knows what I think, he must also know how to do it, I want to hear it." ”

Hearing these words, Li Ru was stunned for a moment, if his father-in-law could accept my words like this, how could there be a situation where his body and soul disappeared today. At the moment, he felt a little emotional, and arched his hand: "...... Which...... Confucianism dared to say a word or two, the leader let the slaves go back, nothing more than creating infighting, but in my opinion, he has a cautious personality and is still lacking in fire, even if he disagrees with Kirby, he will not draw a knife against each other, the so-called good medicine must have medicine...... This matter is not urgent, and in a few days we will go deep into the hinterland of Xianbei, and we will see, and it is not too late to find an opportunity to start. ”

His eyes were a little cautious, and when he said this, he glanced at Gongsun Zhi's expression over there, and saw that there was no anger, so he continued: "As for the Xiongnu side, Confucianism came all the way with him, and observed that this person has some cities, but he is not a hero, he has the heart to do nothing, but he has no guts, and he is easy to snake and mouse at both ends. ”

Gongsun Zhi is naturally incomparable to him in terms of viewing people and things.

nodded, looked at the middle-aged scribe, and smiled: "So I have the heart to open Sinology in the Xiongnu, let them interact with the Han people, and let them like Hanfu and satin......"

"The leader wants to make the Huns abandon the original customs is not an overnight effort, if it is too hasty, it will make the Huns vigilant, counterproductive, when the fire is slowly boiled, the broth is fragrant."

"Wen You, I'm afraid there is some research on food."

"Governing the land and people is like cooking, what kind of food is used for what fire...... Confucianism has never cooked, but he understands the truth. Li Ru twisted the tip of his beard and squinted his eyes: "Although ....... doesn't know whose idea was the leader's words, it is definitely not a proper strategy, mainly depending on what kind of Huns the leader needs?" ”

Gongsun Zhi's eyes became serious, and he restrained his smile, he was tall, and he was often in the army, and he looked heroic in his gestures, got up and walked in the tent for a while, and stood still: "...... Keep a pack of hounds. ”

"Hounds?" Li Ru was thin and weak, and raised his head in slight surprise.

"I'm not afraid of death, but I can't die at will...... It hurts my heart to die too much. Gongsun Zhi put his hands behind his back, didn't care about the other party's gaze, walked a few steps, and his voice sank: "...... Besides, the hunter must be equipped with a hound, and he cannot do everything himself. ”

The night covered the heavens and the earth, and a guard in the big tent came to light candles, and the thin figure cast on the tent arched his hand and said: "Isn't the leader afraid of the future, and the hound will raise a wolf?" ”

"Why should I be afraid of wolves?" Gongsun Zhi laughed, turned around and sat down, and waved his hand on the table: "I'm here, that is, the wolves!" ”

The candle flame flickered, and the flying insects came in and pounced on it, falling next to the bowl with a faint green smoke, and the words continued to speak.

"The Huns, I want to keep them plundering, and make them dependent on my Gongsun Zhi...... That is, servile, both loyal and ferocious, this is the Hun hound I want. ”

Gongsun Zhi stared at the dead flying insect, his fingers flicked it away, and his voice contained tyranny: "...... If I had been thinking two years ago, these people would have been killed. ”

Before saying this, in fact, many people in this team had a feeling that their leader was slowly changing, especially Gao Sheng, who first followed Gongsun Zhi to start his family, from the ruthlessness of tearing off a piece of meat from each other when more than a hundred people were dying, to now he began to think in detail about the transformation of capturing and swallowing the prey whole.

The temperament is still the same temperament, but from the hysterical madness at the beginning to the faint power of the party today, it is more like the wolf king who leads the wolves.

"Confucianism has understood what the leader meant."

After talking for a while, Li Ru probably figured out the idea in Gongsun Zhi's heart, but he was also quite surprised by the leader of this horse thief, although the other party did not have much knowledge, but some of the words he often said were a bit of an illusion, such as relying on the word "two words" just now, which was too vivid.

Immediately, the scribe smiled: "The leader has such an idea, Confucianism should be worried about the Huns, Xianbei and even those alien races in the future, but just raising a hunting dog will only be a monopoly, and the court also pays attention to checks and balances, and the leader's eyes may as well look in other directions, such as Xianbei's lock slave, such as Ding Lingren, Qianhu, Fuyu...... However, at present, the leader still first conquers Kirby Neng, and connects Yanmen, Daijun, and Dingyang to stabilize it. ”

"If Dong Zhuo had listened to you more at the beginning, he would have ended up today." Gongsun Zhi smiled and waved his hand: "Since you already have an idea, then you can do these things, and if you can't solve them, I'll come." ”

Li Ru also laughed: "If Yuezhang had listened to Confucianism's words, then no one would have talked about these with the leader today." Then he got up and prepared to take his leave.

Here, when Gongsun Zhi sent him to the tent curtain, he turned around and said: "The leader should soothe the internal tilting, there are too many people in Montenegro, seeing that the cold winter is approaching, if the remaining hundreds of thousands of people cannot be solved, the food and housing problems of the remaining hundreds of thousands of people are likely to be instigated, after all, Zhang Yan's death, although the blame is on Yuan Shao's head, but there will inevitably be people who are suspicious, and they should be removed as soon as possible." After speaking, he tightened his collar and walked into the night breeze with his neck bent.

After the people left, Gongsun Zhi's eyes sank, Zhang Yan's death was only known to a few people, except for Dongfang Sheng, who went to the north first, he didn't tell it, since Li Ru could guess, then Zhang Yan's original henchmen might also have guesses, except for these people, he occasionally thought about it, but now he is busy fighting and has not freed his hands.

However, it is not without a little precaution.

Putting down the curtain, he sat back, Li Ke came over to pour wine, and he waved his hand: "You also go down early to rest, these two days are good to rest, and there will be a war again." ”

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

In the dim light, it rained in the autumn in Youzhou.

The sound of the rain was the only sound in the night. In a certain house in Kamiya-gun, the dim light was on, and the shadow of a man swayed on the lattice, and then he sat down, and the sound of small and fragmented voices sounded inside, and there were also voices interrupted from the middle, and a fierce shadow shook on the window lattice.

“…… What do we have when we get to Upper Valley County? If you want a woman, you have to ask the other party if you agree, we are in the mountains...... When has you ever been in such a predicament on the mountain!! ”

"There are also doubts about General Zhang's death, but when I said it in our army, no one believed it, and I was told that Gongsun Zhi was beaten with more than a dozen sticks, so I thought, General Zhang must have been killed by them! Bai Wind, what do you say? ”

On the other side of the voice, in the slightly cold weather, the man whose name was called was burly and powerful, with knotted muscles on his bare upper arms, the beard on his face grew intermittently, and the rest of the place was covered with healed white scars, and his fist was smashed on several cases now: "...... Zuo Zhangba, Yu Poison They were reused, but we only left behind to patrol the streets, walking on the street, so that the old brothers could see it, it was a shame. ”

"Just take advantage of the fact that the weather has not yet cooled down, and entangle the former group of brothers to kill the one-armed scholar and occupy the city." It was proposed. There was also a voice next to him who shouted: "Zhan? Who will guard it? The soldiers alone are enough for us to drink a pot. ”

“…… Isn't Gongsun Zhi's mother-in-law still in the city? We found an opportunity to storm the mansion, captured her, and used it as a threat to loot the city, and when the time came, it would be better to return to the mountains to live our free life than to be a dog here. Bai Huan's gaze swept over the few brothers in the room, "This matter is settled, everyone is watching each other, and until they are ready, they must not show their feet, and they have to do what they have to do." ”

"Yes!" The crowd clasped their fists.

On one side of the room, a thin man in the crowd squatted there looking at their excited appearance, the corners of his mouth unconsciously hooked, and soon disappeared.

"That's the credit...... Delivered to the door. He thought.

..........

Leaving here, it has been two days since the Xianbei royal court was gone, between the camps, the horses' hooves densely trampled across the earth, galloping on the field, and a team of horses rolled up smoke and dust and stretched into the distance, and the huge cavalry team of nearly 15,000 after two days of rest was ready to send troops.
