Now the documents in all parts of the jurisdiction are directly sent to the general's mansion in Jizhou for processing, and there are Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia, Xianpei, Li Qiang and Ma Gui and others who are responsible for negotiation and handling, Gao Shun is very relieved, and there are many fewer affairs, which is very easy.

By the end of April, it was already summer, and the weather in Bingzhou was very pleasant, cool in the morning and evening, with only a hot period at noon, which was perfect for the march.

Zhao Yun has been married for a month, and Gao Shun is ready to set off and go to Liangzhou with Zhao Yun.

Before leaving, Gao Shun first negotiated with Zhao Xiong and fine-tuned the personnel; Wang Yue's disciples, those who have a family are assigned to their respective states, and those who do not have a family or whose hometown is not within the jurisdiction are divided into two parts, one part goes to Guangling County and obeys Lu Su's dispatch, and the other part is under the jurisdiction of Zhao Yun.

Originally, Shi A, who was reused, was also under the jurisdiction of Zhao Yun to enhance Zhao Yun's strength, and Gao Shun didn't want him to have any mistakes.

Wang Yue was very satisfied with this arrangement, and the disciples had a good home, went their separate ways, and finally fulfilled one of his wishes.

The news that Gao Feng went on the expedition with Zhao Yun had already leaked, and many women were extremely envious.

The eldest princess of Wannian also found Gao Shun and hoped to follow them to Liangzhou to meet the eldest princess.

After Princess Wannian arrived at Taoyuan Fort, Dong Zhuo was very generous and ordered the court to canonize Princess Wannian as the eldest princess of Wannian, and canonized several other eldest princesses as the eldest princess, which meant to befriend Gao Shun.

Gao Shun was entangled several times, so he had to reluctantly agree, and it was better to go out for a walk.

On the fifth day of the first month of April, Gao Feng reluctantly parted from Gao's mother and embarked on the road of the westward expedition with Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun was dressed in a white military uniform and rode a white super-premium war horse, which looked even more majestic.

Gao Feng was wearing a red power suit and riding a jujube red war horse, with a heroic posture.

The eldest princess is wearing a white filial piety dress, which looks tender and pitiful; Gao Shun specially arranged a luxury carriage for him to ride.

In front of Zhao Yun's Yitun guards to open the way, behind Gao Shun's Wutun guards are responsible for guarding, and there are hundreds of high, middle, and junior civil and military officials in the center to guard them.

The road is wide and flat, and on the first day, I arrived in Yuanping County, stayed overnight at Guo's house, and was warmly and grandly entertained.

The next day, stay overnight in Jinyang City, Taiyuan County.

Because Taiyuan County is located in the middle of Bingzhou, the transportation is developed, the trade is prosperous, and Jinyang City is becoming more and more prosperous.

Gao Shun invited the civil and military officials of Taiyuan County to a banquet that night.

Guan Yu sat among the generals, under Zhao Yun, which made him very dissatisfied, sitting at the table, not saying a word, and only drinking. He despised this handsome young student in front of him by nepotism, and looked down on Zhao Yun very much.

Finally, taking the opportunity of toasting, Guan Yu proposed to have a competition with Zhao Yun tomorrow, but Gao Shun refused on the grounds that he was going to leave early tomorrow morning, which made Guan Yu think that Zhao Yun was even more vain, and he despised it even more in his heart.

Gao Shun followed the way he looked at Zhao Yun, and then connected with his impression of Guan Yu in his previous life, and guessed his inner thoughts.

In his previous life, Guan Yu was extremely arrogant, and when he was stationed in Jingzhou, he was defeated and captured because of discord with his colleagues, and the Shu Han regime lost Jingzhou, and the situation was even more unfavorable.

Guan Yu in this world is still so arrogant, which makes Gao Shun very embarrassed.

If you want to talk about the value of force, Guan Yu is indeed a rare general, but his character really doesn't dare to let him defend one side alone; Compared with the current Zhang Fei, Gao Shun likes it even more.

After the meal, Guan Yu was left alone, and Gao Shun was very uneasy about his attitude.

Gao Shun asked, "What does Yun Chang think about the current situation?" ”

Guan Yu didn't expect Gao Shun to ask so directly, due to the effect of wine, his face was even more flushed, and without thinking carefully, he said according to his true thoughts: "Lord, a manly man, you should gallop across the field and make meritorious contributions, how can you be condescended to one domain?" He didn't dare to say that it was because he was jealous of Zhao Yun.

"What does Yun Chang want?"

Guan Yu said: "Lord, our soldiers are strong and strong, our strength is strong, Luoyang is close at hand, why don't you wave your troops south, defeat Dong Zhuo, Qingjun's side, and save the people from fire and water?" The lord will definitely leave his name in history and be admired by all generations. ”

"Any other comments?" Gao Shun continued to ask.

Guan Yu felt that Gao Shun still didn't want to go south, so he said: "Lord, the Liangzhou War has lasted for several years, costing countless money and food, and the results of the war are few. ”

Gao obediently obeyed Guan Yu's words, and felt his attitude towards the imperial court, people with this kind of thinking, not only Guan Yu, I believe that most people still have a certain feeling for the Han Dynasty, which must arouse his attention, it seems that the system is easy to use, loyal to him; As for the Liangzhou issue, it is a direct reaction to Guan Yu's arrogant nature, he believes that since the existing personnel have not achieved good results, that is, their ability is not enough, they should be replaced by him, his ideas are too naïve, too naïve, too arrogant.

He forgot the difficulty of pacifying Liangzhou, before pouring the power of the imperial court, spending a hundred years, consuming countless money and grain, and still unable to pacify Liangzhou; In just a few years, relying on Fu Zhu, Zhou Fei and others, it is already very rare to have such a situation, and Gao Shun is very satisfied.

Gao Shun asked again: "Is Yun Chang dissatisfied with his current work?" ”

Seeing his true thoughts, Guan Yu said with some embarrassment: "Lord, the state is stable, the Quartet is stable, Xianbei is expelled, Wuhuan is co-opted, the Huns are surrendered, Yujiu is in Taiyuan, it is really useless." ”

Gao Shun glanced at Guan Yu dissatisfiedly and said, "Hehe, Yun Chang is bad!" ”

"Please make it clear!"

Gao Shun said with a serious expression: "Taiyuan is located in the middle, Xu Huang can be supported in the west, Shangdang and Hanoi County can be supported in the south, Liangzhou can be supported in the distance, and the border counties in the north seem to be stable, but there are hundreds of thousands of barbarian cavalry wandering outside, if the defense is not strict, they will definitely go south to invade the border, these places, all need Yunchang's timely support; Taiyuan County is stable, the Quartet can be stable, Yun Chang is in it, but he doesn't see the importance of the Taiyuan garrison, it's really a dereliction of duty! ”

At this time, Guan Yu had already been said to be sweating profusely.

Gao Shun continued: "Yun Chang wants to go south to the Central Plains and quell the turmoil, the idea is very good, but Shun has already promised the first emperor not to interfere in the affairs of the imperial court, how can he break his original promise?" And now that the border counties are not stable, the interior must be outside first; There are still some problems that Yun Chang didn't pay attention to, hundreds of thousands of Liangzhou officers and soldiers are stationed around Luoyang, these officers and soldiers are veterans who have experienced the test of war, and their combat effectiveness is extremely strong, how many officers and soldiers do we need to gather to encircle and annihilate them? If they can't be surrounded and annihilated at one time, and let them flee in all directions, how can the people of the world be safe? The time for the rise of our northern Xinjiang is too short, that is, without considering the local garrison, how many troops can be gathered in total? With more than enough self-preservation and insufficient offense, he can only maintain peace with Dong Zhuo and gain time for development. ”

Guan Yu knew that the lord had already thought about it, and he had considered it more comprehensively than him, and the wine was also scared to wake up, so he immediately explained: "Don't blame the lord, it's Yu who is anxious!" ”

"We occupy all border counties, the population is sparse, the financial resources are limited, we must first develop strength, accumulate money and food, in order to calm the world, the war is fought with money and food, otherwise how to win? It is only to increase the casualties, if he loses the containment of the northern Xinjiang, Dong Zhuo will be even more domineering. ”

Guan Yu knew that Bingzhou was poor, and the population of a state was not as large as that of a county in the Central Plains, and it was plundered by barbarians year after year, and the people's lives were miserable; Gao Shun rose and relied on his own strength to resist the barbarians, so that the state was stable, and it was only a few days after it was stable? It was naïve to forget the actual situation and want to go south to the Central Plains. So he lowered his head and said to Gao Shun: "Lord, Yu is wrong, and he will definitely train carefully in the future, and be ready for war at any time." ”

Since Guan Yu said this, Gao Shun didn't want to continue to investigate, and said with emotion: "Yun Chang, our border county is poor, and the pressure on money and food to raise these troops is already very great, and it is not easy to maintain the current situation, so let's put down the rebellion in the border county first and let the people recuperate for a few years!" ”

"Yes, my lord!"

"Yun Chang doesn't have to mind, your words are also reasonable, since ancient times: although the country is big, the warlike will die; Although the world is safe, forgetting the war will be dangerous. It is the mission of the military to prepare for war and rush to the battlefield at any time. ”

"Yes, my lord, Yu understands."
