Chapter 217: The Beginning of the Iron Horse Golden River
"Gongsun, it is not easy for you to run this trip for me Cao Cao."
The army returned to Juye, the main hall of the mansion resounded with the sound of silk and bamboo, Cao Cao sat behind the first long case, holding two small ears of the head, he was almost forty years old, although he was often in the army, but in the good poetry classics, this man has enough majesty and murderous spirit, and also has the heroism and uninhibited spirit of the literati: "The three armies are round, and they must be caught off guard by killing Lu Bu and those thieves, come, we are full of thisββ"
"Cao Yanzhou, don't be too high-spirited, so as not to be overturned by the villain." Gongsun Zhi gestured with a glass of wine, drank it and put it on the table, looked at it from above, and his voice sounded: "Lu Bu, this tiger is not easy to deal with, not to mention that there is still an internal response in Yanzhou, maybe there is more than one place." β
Cao Cao frowned slightly, swept his face, put down his gaze, and tilted his head: "Don't believe I can't beat Lu Bu?" Then, raising his hand, the musicians and courtesans who were playing around him bowed their heads and retreated.
The hall fell silent.
Gongsun Zhi waved his hand to let the maid who poured the wine leave, and looked at Cao Cao: "To fight Lu Bu, it is best to have a strategy against him and the cavalry of the state in advance, and it is best to separate his soldiers and horses, Yanzhou is so big, he can't hold it with twenty or thirty thousand people in his hands, and after a long time, he will lose." β
"I almost forgot, but you have been entangled with Lu Bu for a long time." In the first place, his voice relaxed slightly and joked: "This time, you and I will jointly leave Lu Bu, the tiger, directly behind, and it is good to be the enemy of the year." β
"Lu Feng chased and killed me first, and only escaped by giving gifts, and later I threatened his wife and daughter outside Luoyang, and I beat him twice in Jizhou......" Gongsun Zhi's eyes sank, poured the wine, and drank it all in one gulp: "Over the years, there are indeed many grievances and grievances, even if you can't keep his life this time, there is still a chance later." β
Cao Cao smiled and nodded, stood up and clapped his hands and beckoned a guard: "Wang Tu, you go to the horse house and bring my horse!" After speaking, he walked down and pulled Gongsun Zhi out: "Anyway, you came all the way for me Cao Cao, this love is recorded, you often ride a black horse, it just so happens that I have a new big Wanliang horse is also black, the name is Jueying, it is a small return gift." β
The two went out side by side, and a majestic hiss had been heard from the other courtyard.
Outside the courtyard, the guard named Wang Tu was leading a black male horse to this side, the horse's head swinging with its long mane flying, its limbs vigorously digging the ground, its nostrils spraying rough, and its black shiny body, giving people a feeling of wildness.
Gongsun Zhi's original horse was also a good horse, but he was quite old when he grabbed it, and now this horse is much younger, and it is also a famous mount, since Cao Cao is not distressed, he will naturally not be polite.
"Good horse! Xie Cao Yanzhou. Between these words, Li Ke hurriedly ran in with a cloth silk from outside, and the guards tried to stop him but he pushed them away, and when Cao Cao waved his hand to let the guards retreat, Gongsun Zhi took a look at it, and then pinched it in the palm of his hand.
His face changed slightly, and then gradually became indifferent, Cao Cao noticed that something was wrong, his eyes stared at the cloth silk in his hand, and walked down the stone steps: "Something happened to Shanggu County?" β
"That's right! One of my subordinates had an accident, and my family urged me to return. β
Cao Cao pursed his lips with his hands, considered his words, and finally sighed and waved his hand: "Gongsun, then you go back, Shanggu County is also your foundation, and I, Cao Mengde, can't do anything to force people to stay." β
"What about Yanzhou?" Gongsun Zhi still had some regrets in the end, and it was a pity to miss the opportunity to encircle and suppress Lu Bu.
"Now that I know in advance, how can I just say that Lu Bu is enough." The heroic figure patted Gongsun Zhi's arm, ", I'm still waiting for you and me to join hands in the world, go back quickly, there will be no war in the north next year, and then go back to the Central Plains to see me." β
Gongsun Zhi retreated and arched his hand, looking at the man opposite: "Then take your leave, if you can't kill Lu Bu, Cao Yanzhou might as well drive him to Xuzhou." β
Cao Cao was confusing him with this sentence, and the person had already led the horse away, and Guo Jia, who was in a green shirt and robe under the eaves next to him, walked towards this side, stood behind the side, arched his hand casually, and whispered a word.
"Why did the lord let this person go, Lu Bu is really difficult to deal with."
The voice was not high, but it was clear, Cao Cao naturally heard it clearly, laughed and turned around: "Fengxiao, if I can't even deal with Lu Bu, you and Wen Ruo will be blind and follow the wrong person." β
This sentence is also arrogant, Guo Jia suddenly laughed, followed behind, the smile of the figure walking in front of him gradually converged, looked at a tree in the courtyard with an expressionless face, took out a cloth silk from his cuffs and raised it: "Yesterday, I received a letter from Yuan Benchu, he asked me to move my family to Yecheng. β
"Being a hostage?" A smile arced at the corner of Guo Jia's mouth, "Yuan Benchu seems to be impatient, this is not much different from what the white wolf said, since Yuan Shao's thoughts have been revealed, why don't the lord quietly detain Zhu Ling he sent, and let Yu Ban take over the Jizhou soldiers and horses, which has been needed from time to time." β
"That's what I mean, just do it, even if Yuan Shao knows, he doesn't dare to start a military affair, in terms of time, he has scruples."
Cao Cao waved his sleeves and walked towards the hall, and now he was about to race against time.
*****************************
On the other side, Gongsun Zhi walked out of Caofu, rode through the streets, walked out of the city gate, and came to the military camp to let the two generals of Zhao Zhao and Yan Rou assemble the Black Mountain Cavalry, and then without the slightest pause, he led the cavalry towards the Yellow River.
"Send a fast horse to inform Yu Poison that the Taihang Mountain is optimistic, it is best to clear the mountain road, so that the cavalry can cross the road, in addition, if he points out a foot soldier to go down the mountain to make a gesture of attacking Taiyuan, and send another horse to return to Shanggu County in front, let Dongfang Sheng send someone to Liaodong to send some gifts to Gongsun Du to appease. We entered Hanoi and went up to Taihang. β
The speed of the speech was fast, and a series of orders went down, and the fast horse galloped out of the array and went into the distance. The surrounding leaders did not know what was going on, and in the execution of the order, Gongsun Zhi threw the cloth silk to show them for themselves.
Then he said: "Two things, Yuan Shao's attack on the construction of Yanmen and Juyong, this is nothing more than a war coming, just a fight." The second thing, after the beginning of spring, I asked Pan Feng to lead a team of two or three thousand people to test the king of Liaodong Fanbang, a guy called Gongsun Wang......" Speaking of this, Gongsun Zhi laughed instead: "This guy left Cao Ang alone and more than a thousand soldiers on the grassland, and he got lost with hundreds of people, somehow, he found the people of Wuhuan in Liaodong, and Gongsun Du of Liaodong was also sending people to arrest him, and I heard that two people were kidnapped..... A surname Guan ..... A surname Bing, do you know who it is? β
Everyone shook their heads, after all, Liaodong was too far away, and it was impossible for them to know one or two people.
"It seems that those two people are very important to Gongsun Du, otherwise they wouldn't have gotten to the point of arresting Pan Wushuang." Xian Zhao looked serious, and next to him, Gao Sheng smiled indifferently: "Don't worry, he often says that he is blessed, maybe he really let him escape back from Liaodong." β
Gongsun Zhi's eyes swept around with a serious gaze, "You are all generals with troops, what did I say in the past, soldiers are led by generals, inch by inch, you all have a life in your hands, you can't have the slightest impulse to fight, if Pan Wushuang can get away with it this time, I will also beat him when I come back!" β
"But anyway!" The words paused for a moment, and his tone became fierce: "He Pan Wushuang is my subordinate, if he dies in the hands of Gongsun Du and the Wuhuan people, then this year, we will do nothing, just plow their place." Gongsun Zhi's tone relaxed, looking at the rolling mountains, "There should be more detailed information on the way.......
Ten days later, when the cavalry returned to Hanoi County, Wang Kuang stood at the head of the city and took a look, and led a group of soldiers down the city.
Waving: "Just don't see it, and walk away." β
