An additional general was added, and a thousand men were delivered to him, including the men and the newly recruited militia. Zhang He quickly adapted to his new identity and began training new recruits.

The number of soldiers increased, but there was no food. Dong Zhuo did not allocate more grain and grass. Hanoi's counties also do not have much grain in stock, and it will be difficult to support them until next year. It's December winter, and the homeless people and soldiers need to be warmed and eaten.

It's time to carry out the plan to take Ye City. Guo Yi found Guo Jia and gathered his subordinates to discuss the strategy of capturing Yecheng.

Jizhou is rich and prosperous in the world, which can be known from the fact that Han Fu of Jizhou is responsible for the logistics of the coalition army. Yecheng is only one hundred and twenty miles away from Chaoge, and as long as you bypass the Black Mountain, Yecheng is in front of you.

Guo Jia did not provide a strategy, but asked Guo Yi rhetorically, "I only offered three plans for the general, and now I have used two." ”

"Wrong!" Guo Yi interrupted him and said resolutely: "Capturing Hanoi and attacking Yecheng is one thing. I remember it very well. ”

Guo Jia was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "Why should the general ask me about such a trivial matter?" ”

"You just have to judge." Guo Yi didn't force him, and said with a smile: "They have an idea, but you tell me it's not feasible." ”

Guo Jia knew that he couldn't hide, so he had to say: "Okay! ”

At this time, Wang Yi spoke first and asked Guo Jia, "Lord Guo, I don't know what Xun Yu said in his letter to you?" If I'm not mistaken, he is now on an errand under Yuan Shao. ”

"Smack!" Guo Jia's wine glass fell to the ground, and his eyes were flustered. Dozens of murderous eyes stared at him in the room in an instant, and these generals who could fight well had already put their hands on the hilt of their swords, waiting for Guo Yi's order.

"Don't be afraid." Guo Yi patted Wang Yi's hand and said with a smile: "Don't be angry, there is no problem between me and Fengxiao." ”

Wang Yi said proudly: "Is he blind when we are? ”

"Ahem." Guo Jia relieved himself and said embarrassedly: "Xun Yu and I have been friends for many years, but it is just an ordinary correspondence. ”

Wang Yi immediately said: "Come on, go to Lord Guo's room to look for it." ”

Guo Jia stood up, stared at Guo Yi's eyes, and asked slowly, "General!" Isn't that right? ”

"No." Guo Yi motioned for him to sit down, got up and said to everyone: "Today we are holding a military meeting, and we will not talk about private matters. Let's talk freely and talk about how to capture Yecheng. Fengxiao is a guest, so there is no need to be so demanding. ”

Wang Yi sneered: "Han Fu has no ability, now there are tens of thousands of displaced people in Wei County, Han Fu can't be appeased, sooner or later there will be chaos, as long as our army is in Yecheng, it will be able to break it." ”

"What to do?"

"Attack in three directions." Wang Yi pointed to the map and analyzed: "All the way from the forest filter to the upper reaches of Zhangshui, control the river embankment dam. All the way along the Yellow River to the east, cut off the reinforcement route of the princes of Chenliu, all the way straight in, the army came to Yecheng. Han Fu will fall! ”

Guo Jia nodded and agreed: "This plan is feasible. But in three days, it will be a great cold, and then the river will freeze, and we will not be able to launch a water attack. At the same time, the dry season of the Yellow River will also make it easier for Chen Liu's reinforcements to cross the river, and they may not necessarily cross the river in the area of Liyang County. ”

Fan Xin also agreed, "The princes have approached Xingyang, and Sun Jian has even arrived in Xinzheng, forming a flanking attack on Xingyang." Dong Zhuo will inevitably deploy a large army to resist in the near future. They don't care about us, and this is a good opportunity for us. ”

"Okay." Guo Yi agreed, and then began to point out. Ordered Zhang He to lead the team to seize Liyang County and control the road from Chenliu to Wei County. Ordered the dragon to make a detour to the north and control the Zhangshui Dam. Ordered Long San to lead the army to Yecheng directly. Scheduled to depart at noon the next day.

Back at his residence, Guo Jia released a carrier pigeon. The carrier pigeon flew out of the street and was intercepted by the white sparrow, and after reading the letter, the letter was released.

The content of the letter does not have any military secrets, mainly about Guo Jia's future. Xun Yu felt that Cao Cao was not bad, but now he was subject to Yuan Shao, and he had no soldiers and no land. Guo Jia felt that Cao Cao still needed some time to grow, and the last time he was beaten by Guo Yi's order, it can be seen that he is not proficient in the application of the art of war.

The two exchanged three letters, discussing not where to go to Cao Cao, but when to go! Obviously, both of them felt that Cao Cao would be a great hero who supported the Han family and pacified the troubled times. At least for Guo Jia, he is a better choice than Guo Yi.

Fan Xindao: "The lord really wants to let him go? With his strategy, if he helps Cao Cao, he is afraid that it will be a big disaster. Although Cao Cao is embarrassed now, his talent is not weaker than the lord, and with the help of the dragon and tiger, he will achieve great things! ”

"Is it hard to kill?" Guo Yi said helplessly: "Guo Jia is also famous, and there are not a few people who know that he has a gentleman's agreement with me. He came to my aid when I was in trouble, but I killed him, who will dare to serve me in the future? Needless to say. ”

"Yes."

The next day, Guo Yi ordered the army to make a final inspection before the war.

At this time, an edict came that the emperor wanted to celebrate the festival with Guo Yi and ordered him to go to Luoyang now.

"How?"

Of course, Fan Xin and others are opposed, the so-called emperor's meaning is actually Dong Zhuo's meaning. At this time, Guo Yi was transferred over, undoubtedly to control him.

Guo Jia asked: "How long can our grain and grass last?" ”

Guo Yi didn't hide it and told the truth. "A month."

As a result of the fires in Huai and Montenegro, Hanoi's main granaries were burned down, and a large number of civilians without shelter and food were added. That's a huge drain! And Dong Zhuo has always supplied grain and grass according to the amount of food, and has always given less and not more. It's good to be able to save a month's worth of extra food.

"The general must go!" Guo Jia briefly said his opinion, "If the general doesn't go, Dong Zhuo will regard it as a betrayal, not to mention the interruption of supplies, and he may attack us." The Shandong princes had already arrived outside the Xingyang Tiger Pass, but they had to watch out for the attack of the lord. If they learned that the lord was in Luoyang, they would attack Dong Zhuo with confidence. ”

"Fan Xin!" Guo Yi hugged Fan Xin's neck and whispered: "This place will be handed over to you to manage, this time we will not attack the city, get the food and withdraw quickly." ”

Fan Xin accepted it and asked, "Who does the lord want to accompany?" ”

Guo Yi said: "Yan Hua can go with me." Everyone else stayed. ”

Fan Xin immediately objected, "It's too dangerous." ”

"Rest assured, no one can keep us." Guo Yi called Long Yi, Long San, and Zhang He over and gave a brief explanation. Said to Guo Jia: "I look forward to your third plan. ”

Guo Jia smiled silently.

Guo Yi rode Yue Ying, carrying a dragon tail spear and a Shen Du sword, and followed Rose in the shadows. Yan Hua rode a firebird and rode with him. One person wore a black robe, the other wore a white robe, facing the wind and snow, standing tall.

Guo Jia exclaimed: "It is made in heaven. ”

On the upper floor of Luoyang City, Lu Bu climbed high and looked into the distance. Today's big cold, it is the snow flying all over the sky, the weather is extremely cold, even the exhaled breath has turned into snowflakes scattered, everyone is hiding in the house and baking the fire, but these soldiers are wearing cold armor, holding weapons and standing in the wind and snow, the soldiers' hands are already full of frostbite, the nose is cold and purple, and the helmet is full of ice edges.

In the distance, there were two shadows, one black and one red, rushing in the wind and snow. It wasn't until I got closer that I saw clearly that it was two sweaty and bloody horses, and it was Guo Yi and Yan Hua on horseback. Their robes were puffed up by the wind, their hair fluttering in the snow, and their cold faces shimmered with fiery light. Even the wind and snow have to avoid their pace!

The little soldiers on the side were admiring, this pair of flawless men and women. Lu Bu was jealous, that was the woman he dreamed of, but he stood side by side with other men, and in the eyes of any person, this man and woman should be a couple, God created them to be together, envy the world!

"Open the door!"

The gates opened slowly, and there was only a thin layer of snow on the streets of the city, which had obviously been cleaned with great effort. The world outside the city gate is like walking from the North Pole to the spring of recovery.

Walking into the city, the gate slowly closes. Lu Bu stood on the stairs downstairs and looked at them coldly, "Father-in-law is waiting for you in Xiangguo Mansion. ”

Guo Yi arched his hand, "Thank you." ”

After saying that, he rode into the city. And Yan Hua didn't look at Lu Bu from beginning to end.

"Damn!" Lu Bu slammed Fang Tian's halberd into the city wall, shaking down a large area of snow, "Don't you even want to look at me?" I won't let him escape again this time! ”

Xiangguo Mansion, Guo Yi entered the lobby, and Yan Hua was also by his side.

"Hanoi Taishou, begging the thief Zhonglang general Guo Yi, visit Xiangguo."

"Oh. Zihong is here. Dong Zhuo put down the scroll in his hand and got up to greet him with a charitable smile. After a few words of greeting, Dong Zhuo noticed Yan Hua, looked up and down, patted Guo Yi's shoulder and praised: "This woman should only be in the sky, and the world can smell it a few times!" Zihong can be accompanied by such a beautiful family, and he has no regrets in this life. ”

From Dong Zhuo's eyes, Guo Yi saw the restraint of being a superior. He hid his lust and greed very well, and several times he wanted to reach out to touch Yan Hua, but he couldn't hold back. It can be seen that this person can get to this point, and it is by no means a façade.

Xiangguo praised it. I don't know what happened to Xiangguo's summoning of the lower officials? ”

Dong Zhuo took his eyes off Yan Hua's cold and extraordinary face, smiled, and said, "I'm waiting for you." The emperor said that it is cold today, and he wants to invite you to celebrate the festival, and he has already set up a banquet in the palace, so you will go with me. ”

Guo Yi excused himself and said, "Your subordinates can ride horses." ”

Dong Zhuo didn't dwell on this matter, and agreed casually, "It's okay." ”

Dong Zhuo sat in the carriage, and Li Ru was also accompanied by the car. The car shook, but Dong Zhuo's face was serious and cold as ice.

Li Ru said strangely: "What worries the lord? Guo Yi has already arrived in Luoyang, as long as he is put under house arrest. ”

Dong Zhuo pointed his finger back, "The thorn is on the back!" ”

Li Ru turned his head, it was a board made of high-grade wood, and the entire carriage only had a door on the side and a window in front. The ingenious design makes the car very warm, and the cold winter that can freeze off your fingers and nose is isolated, but Dong Zhuo feels that the thorns are in his back?

Guo Yi and Yan Hua rode horses and followed behind the carriage, they were already turtles in the urn at this time, Dong Zhuo was still so worried?

"The lord is worried. Guo Yi couldn't escape. ”

"Not enough." Dong Zhuo's face did not soften, but became more and more cold, and asked, "Is there any way to combat his strength more than house arrest?" ”

Li Ru made a clicking gesture, "Kill!" ”

Dong Zhuo grabbed his hand and stared at his eyes, his face was covered with frost, "Wen You, get down to business." ”

Li Ru's eyes flickered a few times, and finally his face hardened, and he whispered: "There are three plans, but I don't know how the history books of later generations will write about us." ”

Dong Zhuo laughed, "I, Dong Zhongying, have come to this day, and how many historians are I still afraid of?" ”

Li Ru said: "In this case, the lord listens well. ”
