Chapter 161: Miss, Please
On the second day, Guo Yi arrived at Jiangxia Mansion and rested all night as usual to check the physical condition of the soldiers. The original plan was to form a medical army, but studying medicine was not an overnight effort, and there were really fewer doctors trained, so they could only deploy some banlan root and medicinal powder to clear heat and remove fire. Without a basic chemical industry, even anti-inflammatory drugs cannot be prepared.
After another day's journey, the army arrived outside the city of Xiangyang. Cai Mao led the team and went out of the city for ten miles to greet each other. Guo Yi greeted each other and ordered him to set up a village one mile outside the city and rest here.
"Mrs. Guo's army is neat and powerful, and he really governs the army well. I waited for nothing to live dozens of years in vain, and I was ashamed of myself. ”
As soon as Cai Mao came up, she put on a high hat for him, and she was very flattering.
Guo Yiquan listened to it as a joke, and said with a smile: "Passing by the treasure land, the Lord did not abandon it, and allowed our army to be stationed here." ”
Cai Mao laughed and said, "Taifu, where is this?" Taifu Xingbing is for the sake of the Han Dynasty, and we are all Han courtiers, so how can there be any reason not to welcome the righteous army? Taifu quickly entered the city, and a certain person had prepared all the wine and food to wash the dust for Taifu. ”
"I'm tired." Guo Yi ordered Long Er to be stationed, and Long Yi, Fan Xin, and Wang Yi went to the banquet with him.
The banquet was set up on Cai Mao's mansion, and Guo Yi was invited to take a seat. Guo Yigui is the Taifu, so he is naturally the best to do. Looking at the banquet, Huang Chengyan, Huang Zu, Kuai Yue, Kuai Liang and others were all there, which shows that they attach great importance to this banquet.
After three rounds of drinking, the atmosphere was almost the same, and Cai Mao began to probe, "Dong thieves have tens of thousands of soldiers, all of whom are elite in Xiliang." Taifu went north to Kuangjun to assist the country this time, I don't know what the plan is? ”
"There are not many soldiers, and my 7,000 people are enough to defeat Dong Thief."
"Taifu is so courageous." Cai Mao praised with a smile, and asked again: "The dragon in Guanzhong is in a tiger's position, and there are many passes and dangers. From Jingzhou to the north, there is the Qinling Mountains to block, Taifu does not go north from Xuzhou, along the Yellow River west to take Guanzhong. Detour to Jingzhou, there should be a strange strategy, right? ”
Wang Yi whispered: "I can say it." ”
"No, no, no." Guo Yi shook his head again and again, and said with a smile: "I came to Jingzhou, not to attack Guanzhong, but to ask Mr. Cai." ”
Cai Mao didn't look at Huang Chengyan and the others, they signaled him to deal with it. Cai Mao smiled and asked, "Taifu has something, I should do my best." I don't know what can be disturbed by Taifu? ”
Guo Yi said: "There are two things I am concerned about, and it just so happens that they are all related to Mr. Cai. Therefore, he did not hesitate to spend military rations, made a detour to Jingzhou, and came to visit Mr. Cai, hoping that Mr. Cai would definitely help. ”
It seems to be inevitable! Cai Mao's heart was thinking quickly, how to send this plague god away at the lowest cost. The smile on his face did not change, "Taifu, please speak." ”
Guo Yi looked around and saw that Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang had worried faces, as if they were afraid of his force. Huang Chengyan's face was as usual, and he couldn't see any joy or sorrow. Huang Zu was resentful, always clenched his fists, and had a strong desire to attack.
As soon as Long entered the door, he had been guarding against Huang Zu and deliberately chose the seat on his side. As long as Huang Zu has any abnormal movements, he can be subdued immediately.
"The first thing is simple, it's just a matter of Mr. Cai's words. It's just that with Mr. Cai's family background, I'm afraid he won't look down on me, a mountain villager. ”
Cai Mao listened inexplicably, looking at the others, Huang Chengyan didn't understand, and Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue were even more confused.
"Taifu, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
"I have nothing in my life, the only thing I love women. I heard that Mr. Cai has a sister who has the color of the country, so I came to ask for it. ”
Cai Mao's heart tightened, snorted, and said with a smile: "It's too serious." I do have an older sister, but I am twenty-six years old this year, widowed at home, how can I match my wife? What's more, Taifu married Mr. Cai Yong's only daughter as his wife, which is a talented woman and made in heaven. ”
Guo Yi said with a smile: "It's not to marry a wife, but to take a concubine." ”
Cai Mao's face changed, she brushed her sleeves up, and said angrily: "My Cai family is a famous family in Jingxiang, how can there be a reason to be a concubine?" ”
"Oops!" Guo Yi looked ashamed and smiled self-deprecatingly, "Look at me, I usually don't drink a drop of alcohol, but I'm actually drunk today." I talked nonsense for a while, please don't blame Mr. Cai. Sit sit, sit, sit, why not. ”
"Sit, sit." Kuai Yue and the others also hurriedly persuaded them, and Long Yi over there had already put his hand on the hilt of the sword! Guo Yi is a smiling tiger, he doesn't blink when he kills, so why bother to provoke him in front of him.
Cai Mao was also so stunned, she suddenly woke up, and was suddenly sweating profusely. He was only three feet away from Guo Yi, and with Guo Yi's rumored martial arts, he was afraid that he could be killed with just one move. Although Guo Yi's soldiers are outside the city, looking at everyone here, compared with Guo Yi and Long Yi's martial arts, they are all local chickens and dogs.
"The lower official lost his words, please forgive the Taifu." The eldest husband can bend and stretch, it is a matter of his family's life, and it is not a shame to bow his head and admit his mistakes. Cai Mao knelt down and apologized.
Guo Yi hurriedly got up and helped him up, and also apologized to him, "Wine is harmful!" I'm really going to quit drinking in the future. Fang just lost his words for a while, and he was offended, Mr. Cai don't take it to heart. ”
"Yes. Be. Cai Mao nodded again and again, and then returned to his seat and sat down.
Kuai Yue saw that his face was pale with fright and sweating profusely, so he spoke: "What is the second thing that Taifu said? ”
Guo Yi slapped his thigh and laughed: "Oops! Today, Mr. Cai's face is not good, but he is afraid that he is suffering from the cold. This matter will be discussed later, and it will be discussed later. Say goodbye first. ”
"It's okay, it's okay." How dare Cai Mao let him go, he quickly pulled his sleeve and said flatteringly: "Taifu, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
Guo Yi asked rhetorically, "Then I said it?" ”
"Please."
Guo Yi said: "What I am worried about, Jingzhou also." The thieves in the four counties of Jingnan are rampant, and the county guards are incompetent and cannot succeed. Now I heard that Dong Thief sent Liu Jingsheng to be the pastor of Jingzhou, Liu Jingsheng is a person, I know it. This person was born in a clan, but he has a ghost in his heart and is disrespectful. If he enters Jingzhou, it will be difficult for Jingzhou to do. I Yangzhou and Jingzhou are the neighbors of the lips and teeth, I am now leading the army to the north, if Jingzhou has changed, I rescue late, then Yangzhou is in danger. ”
Kuai Yue hurriedly said: "With the two generals Pang De and Long San here, Yangzhou has no worries." ”
"These two sons are certainly handsome. However, only Chu is talented, although Liu Jingsheng is the last, but he has the help of the people of Jingzhou. Pang De and Long San are also difficult to resist. I sleep at night, and that's what worries me. Therefore, I made a detour to Jingzhou and asked Mr. Cai to contribute ideas to relieve my worries. ”
Huang Chengyan said: "Taifu is well governed in Yangzhou, and the people love him, how dare the thieves in Jingzhou dare to offend?" What's more, Tai Fu Xing's soldiers beg for thieves, and all righteous people in the world should respond, who dares to be Tai Fu's edge? ”
Guo Yi nodded with a smile, shook his head again, and said: "As the saying goes: say one thing, do another, know the person and the face, but don't know the heart!" Since I scattered my family wealth, rebel army, and cut down the Yellow Turban, I can be regarded as well-informed, and if things don't work out, I can't say it lightly. ”
Huang Zu asked, "Taifu, is this scaring me?" ”
"Uh......" Guo Yi smiled slightly and said, "Where is this?" I have always been particular about convincing people with reason, how can I scare you? ”
Huang Zu asked: "What Taifu said, where is the 'reason'?" ”
Guo Yi said proudly: "The only truth in this world is on the tip of my spear!" Jun, are you willing to take it? ”
The hall was full of solemnity. For this group of ancient people, this is simply an earth-shattering declaration. They have long been accustomed to the words of the sage, everything has an inherent standard, where is there such a statement as Guo Yi?
When these words come out, it's time for the poor dagger to see it. If they don't give an explanation today, Guo Yi will never give up.
Guo Yi waved his hand and said loudly: "Today, I am waiting for drinking and having fun, how can we not have a silk and bamboo orchestra?" I have heard that Miss Cai is proficient in music theory, so why not invite her to come out and play a song to cheer up? ”
"Yes!" This time, Cai Mao didn't dare to refute, and hurriedly instructed the maid, "Go and ask the young lady to come out to meet guests." ”
