Chapter 18 Chasing the Tiger Through the Stream
How angry Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were, Gao Ye didn't know, and of course, he didn't want to know. After all www.biquge.info the anger of the two of them is reasonable, they are both here to recruit people who have been too high, but Gao Ye finally chose a Cao Cao who both of them look down on, how can the two of them bear such a slap in the face? But what does their anger matter with the high night? Now Gao Ye, who has taken refuge in Cao Cao in a high-profile manner, is leading the men and horses in the direction of Jiyin.
Although for the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, Gao Ye was not worried about whether Cao Cao could recover them at all, because Cao Cao in history took them for his own use without his own help. Now Cao Cao asked himself to lead his troops from Yuzhou to Ruyin and besiege the invading Qingzhou Yellow Turbans here, so he naturally had to obey Cao Cao's orders. Because from the moment he officially announced that he had taken refuge in Cao Cao, his status was the same as that of Xiahoudun and others, and he had to obey Cao Cao's orders.
It's just that Yingchuan is really a bit special, after Cao Cao carefully investigated, it was decided that it would be more appropriate for Gao Ye to continue to serve as the Taishou of Yingchuan at this time, after all, Gao Ye is very prestigious in Yingchuan, and the policies he has implemented are also very appropriate. In this way, I am afraid that there will be turmoil in Yingchuan.
Therefore, Gao Ye still served as the Taishou of Yingchuan, but Gao Ye's Guo Jia, Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao were all transferred to Cao Cao's command, and Gao Ye had no objection to this at all. After all, the three of them are different from Gao Shun, Gao Shun is his own retainer, although he also wants Gao Shun to be a leader, but Gao Shun categorically refused. Besides, Gao Ye also needs manpower here to help, Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao are more than enough to be the leaders of the guards, and let them lead the army alone, that is a disaster. Therefore, Gao Ye also agreed to Gao Shun's request and let him follow him temporarily. As for political affairs, Cao Cao sent Liu Ye to Gao Ye to assist, and Gao Ye was also very happy about this.
To tell the truth, this Liu Ye is very famous in history, and he is the descendant of Liu Yan, the son of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu, the king of Fuling. To say that his strategy, courage and wisdom are definitely not inferior to Xun You and others, but in Luo Guanzhong's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Liu Ye has appeared only a handful of times, except for being mentioned that Guo Jia recommended it to Cao Cao, only at the time of the Battle of Guandu, he offered Cao Cao a plan to deal with Yuan Shaojun's well with a catapult. This has also led to Liu Ye always giving people the impression of being mediocre or talented.
Liu Ye in history is young and well-known, Xu Zijiang once commented that he has the talent of the world, although his position has not been too high, but he has always been the confidant of the Wei lord in the past dynasties. From Cao Cao to Cao Ei, Liu Ye participated in almost all major planning and decision-making. In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", he even has a biography alongside Cheng Yu, Guo Jia and others, which can be seen.
Therefore, Gao Ye was really happy about Liu Ye's arrival, Guo Jia in this life was very nourishing because of Gao Ye, so he only listened to Liu Ye's name and didn't know his person. This person was recommended to Cao Cao by Gao Ye, and now Liu Ye came to Yingchuan, not only saw Gao Ye, a famous man in the world who recommended him, but also was reused by Gao Ye, and entrusted him with the political affairs of a county, and he himself naturally felt excited. patted his chest in front of Gao Ye and promised that he would definitely complete Gao Ye's plans and expectations for Yingchuan.
As for the military, Gao Shun is still stationed in Yingchuan, and Gao Ye sent troops this time, and the number of men and horses is only 8,000, and the general is only himself. In fact, this is also to blame Cao Cao, not to mention that Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao under his command have been abducted, and he has not equipped himself with a deputy, even if it is a full favor and Lu Qian, although these two people are more proficient in government affairs, but to be honest, the use of soldiers is not bad, and it is more than enough to be a deputy for himself. It also saves you from worrying about almost everything in the barracks.
Gao Ye saw that it was getting late, so he immediately asked the army to be stationed here. This time, there were few cavalry, and most of the soldiers with horses were scouts. Therefore, the daily march is not fast, after all, Bao Xin has just set off, Cao Cao is still reorganizing his troops and horses, and it is useless to rush by himself.
But sometimes, things are blamed on this place, and even Gao Ye wants to know why, why every time he just wants to rest, something always happens! Although everyone was still working intensively to set up camp, Gao Ye clearly heard a tiger roar. The anger contained in this voice, even Zhou Cang heard it, and felt that it was better not to be an enemy. Because the tiger that can make such a sound, in addition to its strong body, the ferocity is definitely extraordinary. Zhou Cang said that if he encountered such a tiger in the mountains, running away was his best choice.
But Zhou Cang's words aroused Gao Ye's curiosity, after all, in the later generations of Gao Ye, he had only seen the listless king of the mountain in the zoo, or he had seen such a very obedient beast in the circus, or he had seen a South China tiger made of paper in the news, and that's it. Now that I have the opportunity to meet the true king of the mountain, I am naturally excited.
After Zhou Cang's persuasion failed, he said that he would go with Gao Ye, Gao Ye nodded, and then ordered everyone to continue to camp, don't care about the tiger's cry, and go and kill the tiger himself. In line with their trust in Gao Ye's martial arts, when they heard him say this, they naturally stopped being afraid and continued to camp in an orderly manner. Gao Ye took Zhou Cang, Pei Yuanshao and a few guards to look for the direction where the tiger roar came from.
Seeing that the sky was already a little dark, several people were riding horses, but they had not yet met this legendary tiger. But it didn't take long for Gao Ye to signal everyone to stop, although there was no sound of the tiger roaring, but the state of the Absolute Shadow at this time was definitely abnormal, not only did he look very irritable, but Gao Ye even felt his fear. Although Gao Ye didn't know why he felt this way, Gao Ye did feel the willingness of Jueying to turn around and gallop now.
The horses behind the Shadow were even more unbearable, and under the knight's reluctance to control, they barely remained normal. With the passage of time, this situation has become more and more serious, not only Gao Ye understands in his heart, but everyone also knows in his heart, but he is afraid that the tiger is nearby. Gao Ye immediately dismounted, let Zhou Cang lead his horse, find a place to avoid it first, and prepare to have a good battle with this tiger. After all, if the tiger sneaks up on his camp at night, he is afraid that his soldiers will be damaged. It's better to take this opportunity and kill it directly, anyway, you are covered in armor and have a sword by your side, and you are afraid that a tiger will not succeed?
said that it was too late, and the whole person was tense in the high night, and suddenly saw a colorful tiger running straight towards him not far away, and the two-zhang wide stream, the tiger almost jumped over. Seeing the tiger running closer and closer, Gao Ye couldn't help but shake up his spirits. If the color has darkened a lot today, it is not good for me to see clearly, but for a cat like a tiger, it is an easy thing to see myself clearly. When the tiger saw that he was in front of him, he didn't dodge it, and he rushed straight as if he was rushing towards him.
It is said that the clouds are from the dragon, the wind is from the tiger, the tiger pounced, and sure enough, it brought up a strong wind, the sky was already dark, and Gao Ye could only vaguely see the tiger's coming, only to see him and his body pounce, and then he came down from mid-air. Gao Ye naturally drew his sword in his hand, but this tiger was very strong, Gao Ye knew that if he was knocked down by it this time, he was afraid that his life would not be guaranteed, so he immediately flashed, and with a wave of the sword in his hand, he fell into the void. The tiger saw that he was missing, and the man only flashed, but he didn't know where he went, and he knew that he had flashed behind him. A beast of prey is a beast of prey after all, and this kind of hunting skill is by no means comparable to that of humans. It also knew that it was the hardest to see behind him, and it was afraid that he would pounce on him, so the tiger's tail was flicked.
It's just that Gao Ye flashed straight behind him, how could he not be on guard, rolled on the spot, wanted to roll to the side to give him a sword, where did he think that as soon as he got together, he was faced with the tiger's bloody mouth, and he was really taken aback, but he was not panicked. It was too late to swing the long sword in his hand, Gao Ye directly let go of the sword, and his right hand clenched his fist at the tiger's head is a punch. Gao Ye's gauntlet was originally made of fine iron, and this time it hit the tiger's head to the side, and Gao Ye narrowly avoided this blow.
However, to Gao Ye's expectations, the tiger was punched, and he actually turned his head and ran, unwilling to fight with himself. At this time, the moon had come out, and although it was not a full moon, it was still bright, and when Gao Ye saw the tiger running back, he wanted to pursue it. It's just that these two legs can catch up with the speed of the tiger.
But Gao Ye was in the moonlight, and saw another person on the other side of the river, born majestic, if he hadn't rushed away, Gao Ye even thought it was a black bear. Gao Ye saw that the tiger saw the man, as if he had seen the king of Hades, and stopped at the moment, and then turned around and ran. But the man ran quite fast, grabbed the tiger's tail, and only heard the man's shout, and then overturned the old man to the ground!
Not to mention this scene, Zhou Cang and the others, who had been hiding next to him, were surprised, and even Gao Ye was frightened. The tiger was also fat and strong, and he was afraid that he would not weigh five or six hundred catties, but he was pulled back by the man with one hand and overturned to the ground. Gao Ye remembered that in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", it was said that Xu Chu could drag the oxtail backwards with one hand and move forward a hundred steps, so powerful Gao Ye has always felt unreal, because even Lu Bu does not have such an ability. But the person in front of him really refreshed his three views today, how can he not be surprised!
I heard the man not far away shouting: "You brute, let me chase me so hard!" I don't want you to cross this stream and run back again! Today is just the right time for me to have a full meal! ”
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Cang and the others, who had already come to Gao Ye's side at this time, couldn't help but look at each other with Gao Ye, there were still such brave people in the world!
