Gan Ning smiled shyly: "Yuan Zhi, I know that the grain and weapons of the three armies are all in the belly of Jun, and our department is blocking Hu Zhen and Xu Rong's army in front of Yique Pass, and the losses are serious, if you don't replenish it, I'm afraid the sergeant will complain, you see ......."

Xu Shu glanced at Gan Ning, who was chattering, and then at Le Jin, who was standing silently, shook his head and said: "After the war is over, the lord has not found time to discuss this matter, you need to know that when the meritorious deeds are rewarded, it may not be impossible to change the personnel. ”

Xu Shu was also entangled and annoyed, and patiently explained to Gan Ning and Le Jin, and then sent the two out of the account.

Gan Ning feigned anger and said: "What did the captain say! Ning's Shu County Erlang, if you say half a sentence and don't go to Lujiang, Ning will come to see you! ”

"Shujun Erlang and the general work together, needless to say. What about the other soldiers from all over the world? The general dares to guarantee that they will definitely go to Lujiang? "Xu Shu didn't have a good airway.

What he didn't make clear was that in the battle against Dong, because Xu Chu still had to share the pressure of Cao Cao's grain and grass, the grain and grass were consumed very quickly, especially when Cao Cao recruited more than 10,000 people from Peiguo and Yangzhou, 50,000 people ate horses and chewed, and the daily consumption of grain and grass was an astronomical amount.

In this case, the first thing to consider before returning to the county is disarmament.

This is what Cao Cao did in history. Every time Cao Cao laid down a place, the first thing was not to expand the army, but to lay off troops and return to the field, because Cao Cao did this, in history, when Yuan Shu's army ate river mussels in Huainan, Yuan Shao's army ate mulberries in Hebei, and even when people ate people, his troops could at least eat.

Although Xu Chu's current situation is somewhat different from Cao Cao at that time, combined with the actual situation of Lujiang County, if these 20,000 people are brought back, the pressure on the county government will be too great.

Although Xu Shu only said half of the words, Gan Ning and Le Jin also nodded lightly after hearing this. As military generals, the starting point of their consideration of the problem is different from that of Xu Shu, who is the chief butler.

There is a saying: Soldiers are expensive but not too expensive.

Homesickness and love for the land is the normal feeling of people, Xu Chu's 20,000 people come from all over the world, and it is not surprising that there is a situation where they are unwilling to go to Lujiang to continue to work in the army. This part of the people simply don't want to, and leave the remaining ones who are willing to continue to be soldiers to train rigorously to create a team of victories, or a better choice.

Gan Ning is not a person who messes around, so he left even if he gave up his hand to Xu Shu.

The same is true for Lejin.

Xu Shu breathed a sigh of relief, and as soon as he sat down, Guo Jia and Xi Zhong came together, so he had to stand up again, squeezed out a smile, and said, "Fengxiao, Zhicai, why are you here?" ”

What the three of them talked about, no one in the army knows, only that that evening, the sergeant guarding the gate saw Guo Jia, the lieutenant of the military colonel, and Sima Gongsu of the other department riding out, and they didn't know where they were going.

......

......

The next day, Xu Chu opened his eyes and saw that he had collapsed on the bed with a thin blanket on his body. Looking around the tent, seeing Dian Wei standing proudly on the side of the bed, Xu Chu couldn't help but sigh in his heart: This honest son must have stayed awake all night!

After getting up, Xu Chu instructed Dian Wei to pass the order, and the general Chinese Wudu called the Chinese army tent to discuss the matter, and then used the order indiscriminately, and then paced to the Chinese army tent.

To his surprise, there were already many people sitting in the tent, and when he raised his eyes, there were Xi Zhong, Xin Bi, Gan Ning, and Le Jin, and in the first middle of the last time, Cai Yong and Xun Yu were sitting impressively!

"Cai Gong, Wen Ruo, how do you ......?"

"Old decay and Xun Jun came uninvited, what's the matter, the prince is not welcome?"

"I was tormented by me, and I couldn't meet it far away, so I ask you to forgive me."

Xu Chu's heart fluttered and beating.

When Cai Yong came, he was already mentally prepared, and Xun Yu's arrival at this moment was really unexpected for him!

Xun Yu was talking and laughing with Xi Zhong, Xin Bi and others, and when he saw Xu Chu entering the tent, he immediately got up. At this time, Xun Yu stood in the center of the tent, bowed deeply to Xu Chu, and said: "Hanchen Xun Yu, meet General Huya and Marquis Zhaowu, and I am willing to work with the prince to help the Han family and clear the sea!" ”

All stand up.

Xu Chu happily helped Xun Yu up and bowed back. In addition, he also noticed Xun Yu's wording: 'Hanchen', 'Kuang Fu Han Room', although Xun Wenruo was willing to conspire with Xu Chu to conspire with him, he still left some room after all.

Loyal and disloyal.

After experiencing so many things by Yuan Shao's side, Xun Yu's way of treating the princes of the world has also changed.

It is not difficult to understand that Xun Yu rushed thousands of miles to Bohai County to follow Yuan Benchu, the hope of the fourth and third dukes, but in exchange for Yuan Shao's superficial support for the Han Dynasty, secretly seeking personal gain, and finally difficult to express his will. It can be imagined how disappointed Xun Yu was in Yuan Shao at that time, and how helpless he was in the falling apart world.

Fortunately, after returning to Yingchuan County, Xu Chu, Cao Cao, and Sun Jian retained the last trace of face for the Kwantung princes, so that the current situation still has enough room for maneuver, and it is still unknown who will kill the deer.

I have to mention that Xun Yuben is still hesitating between Xu Chu and Cao Cao, for him, the two have their own strengths. As far as Cao Cao is concerned, he is from a noble background, well-known at home, and is the Taishou of Yingchuan, and there is no clever strategist who can make decisions for him; On Xu Chu's side, the biggest advantage is that the relationship with him is closer than Cao Cao, and Xun Yu knows Xu Chu better. Moreover, there are two old friends of Guo Jia and Xi Zhong, Xun Yu's integration into Xu Chu's camp must be very fast, and his talent must be able to be displayed.

What really made Xun Yu decide to come to Xu Chu was the arrival of his brother Xun Chen last night.

Xun Chen ran away from Yuan Shao and returned to his hometown, and what he did was to go to Cao Cao.

On the one hand, Xun Yu considered that for the survival of the family, it was best for him and Xun Chen to be their own masters; On the other hand, Cao Cao and Xu Chu made a good alliance, and he and Xun Chen were in the Cao and Xu camps, which might be able to realize Kuang Han's ambition more quickly.

Putting aside the second point, the scholars who have the idea of 'don't put eggs in one basket' are not just the Xun family, such as the Yang Zhai Xin family, the elder brother Xin Ping is by Yuan Shao's side, and the younger brother Xin Bi is by Xu Chu's side; another example is the Guo family, Guo Jun is now Cao Cao's subordinate, but Guo Tu is Yuan Shao's think tank; and for example, the three brothers Zhou Xin, Zhou Ang, and Zhou Qiao, some of whom have their own forces, and some of whom are under the roof of others.

And so on and so forth.

No matter what Xun Yu thought in his heart, Xu Chu was extremely happy at this time, and he said loudly to everyone: "Now that Xun Jun helps me, I am like a tiger with wings!" ”

Everyone congratulated Xu Chu.

Xun Yu glanced at the tent.

Xu Chu's civil and military forces, some of them are Xun Yu's old friends, some Xun Yu recognizes, but more are people he is not very familiar with.

After the discussion of Dong, the world is familiar with the fierce generals under Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu, and many people in the coalition army have become famous because of this. Among them, the most benefited were the generals under the command of Xu Chu, Cao Cao, and Sun Jian.

The generals of Cao Cao and Sun Jian, and some outstanding ones such as Han Dang, Cheng Pu, Zu Mao, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, etc., Xun Yu has heard of his name. And on Xu Chu's side, Xun Yu cares most about Dian Wei, Gan Ning, Le Jin, Li Quan, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and other generals.

These people are all praised as brave and good fighters, and when Xun Yu walked into the tent today, he had a feeling of 'hearing is better than seeing', and now he is even more surprised when he observes carefully.
