Chapter 279 Preparation before departure
"The time for the mission has been set. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info "Come over one day, You Heng came to Lu Ye's house again.
This time, You Heng, of course, was fully prepared, and he also had a smug smile on his face like a spring breeze, which made Lu Ye look like he wanted to beat him.
The arrival of You Heng at this time certainly means that many things are ready.
You Heng is not a fool, Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Lu Ye and others can see the conspiracy in this scene, and of course You Heng can also see it.
But you still choose to accept such a mission.
Without him, just for a clear conscience.
This time, I came to Lu Ye again, in order to discuss the specific matters related to the envoy.
"When?"
"Three days later."
Lu Ye nodded: "Have you already prepared everything that should be prepared?" ”
You Heng is very confident: "With you and me, what else do you need to prepare?" ”
When Lu Ye heard You Heng's words, his face couldn't help but tremble. I wonder where this inexplicable self-confidence of yours came from, even I don't have such self-confidence.
I thought that this might be the legendary literati trait......
"Three days later, what day will it be?" Lu Ye thought about it in his mind, it was already the beginning of February, and the dragon had already raised his head, but Lu Ye's mind looked a little mushy, quite a bit of a feeling that he didn't know the years in the mountains.
You Heng also recalled a little in his mind: "Three days later, it's the eighth day of the second month, what's wrong?" ”
...... on the eighth day of February.
There is still a long time before April, if Lu Ye's memory is not wrong, Yuan Shao will really completely annex the remaining forces of Gongsun Zan after April, so that they will not dare to make any trouble at will for a long time.
It was precisely because Yuan Shao completed his rectification plan that he finally had the idea of going south to annex Cao Cao.
"How long does it take to get from Xudu City to Yecheng?"
"It won't take long, two or three days will be enough."
Lu Ye nodded, it would definitely not be a simple matter to send an envoy to Yecheng on behalf of the Cao Cao Group. At that time, you will have to stay in Yecheng for a while.
And from the conversation between Xun Yu and himself, Lu Ye also knew something more or less.
If he and You Heng can sit down with some things that make Cao Cao feel long and happy when they go to Jizhou, then once they return to Xudu City smoothly, the reward after that will definitely not be less than their own.
Counting the time to go back and forth, and the time you need to stay in Yecheng, it will only be about half a month, and it will not even be March yet, so there should still be enough time.
"What have you prepared these days!?" Lu Ye looked at the elated You Heng and asked.
You Heng didn't hide anything, and said, "Actually, I didn't prepare too many things, but I just prepared some necessary things. ”
"What about the retinue?" Lu Ye saw clearly, You Heng came to him alone, and there was no trace of his subordinates and entourage at all.
"Followers?"
"Why, from Xu Ducheng to Yecheng, you don't even plan to bring an entourage? Are you so confident that your thin and weak body can withstand such a long journey? Lu Ye asked rhetorically.
You Heng's tone couldn't help but choke.
"There are no entourage, you should have invited the guard, right?"
However, You Heng still looked a little confused: "Guards? Why bring a guard? ”
"It's such a long way from here to Yecheng. Many of the places you passed through during this period were even affected last winter, and you told me that you don't need to bring guards? Is it because your martial arts are very good? ”
Your Heng's face immediately turned blue and white.
At this time, he was belittled by Lu Ye like this, and You Heng was also an arrogant person, how could he stand it, so he retorted at the time: "With your and my skills, what kind of escort ...... are you looking for." ”
However, when it comes to the back, You Heng also knows that this matter is indeed his own negligence, and he can't help but be a little speechless.
If you can't be straight, of course you're not strong.
Lu Ye sneered: "What kind of guards are you looking for, I originally thought that you had seen some of the world during this time in Wuyang County, could it be that your Wuyang County has been stable for a long time to such a point?" No robbers on the road? ”
You Heng couldn't help but blush a little.
For Lu Ye's words, You Heng really didn't know how to refute them.
Of course, the security in Wuyang County can't be so good, but Youheng, as the county commander, has people following you when you go in and out, and you will see any robbers wherever you go.
The restlessness on the road, the understanding of nature is not as profound as Lu Ye's.
How many things Lu Ye has experienced, and these things on the road, there are indeed a few people who can know more clearly than Lu Ye. In such a troubled world, since Lu Ye and You Heng are envoys, of course it is impossible not to bring property, since they have brought property, how can those robbers on the road not be moved.
The robbers are tempted, and you want to pass safely without an escort?
These robbers don't care if you're an official under Cao Cao or Yuan Shao.
"It's still early, we will leave in three days, and you still have time. Have you ever known someone in the military? When the time comes, just find someone to borrow a team of soldiers. Lu Ye said.
The military system of the Three Kingdoms is divided into six levels: department, qu, tun, team, shi, and wu. Wu has jurisdiction over five people, and has a military chief; Shizhi two troops, a total of ten people, set up a chief; The team has jurisdiction over five shes, a total of fifty people, and has a capital city; Tun jurisdiction two teams, a total of 100 people, set up a tun general; Qu governs Wutun, a total of 500 people, set up a Qu chief; The ministry has jurisdiction over two songs, a total of 1,000 people, and a thousand governors, also known as tooth generals. and set up a battalion in the ministry, 5,000 men, and set up a school inspector and lieutenant; The two battalions are an army, with a total of 10,000 men, and there are captains.
One team, that is, fifty people.
In addition, Lu Ye himself took Shi Jian and Minister Lu with two powerful generals, how could he think about this section of the way to Yecheng, even if there were robbers who came to rob him and You Heng without long eyes, having such a force was enough to make them daunting.
And this is an army, with the name of Cao Cao's group, it can more or less avoid some trouble.
You Heng's face showed a look of embarrassment: "You also know my temperament...... I don't even have a few friends on weekdays, so how can I be able to intervene on the military side? ”
Lu Ye was also helpless: "You also know that your temperament is not pleasant." ”
Lu Ye's mind turned slightly, You Heng didn't know anyone in the military, but Lu Ye knew. Xiahoudun, Cao Renna and other characters will not talk about it first, although they have said a few words in person, but Lu Ye does not think that everyone's friendship has reached such a point.
Then it's closer, Zhang Liao, Cao Zhen.
Zhang Liao is a general, and now he has no soldiers in his hands, let alone lend someone to Lu Ye and You Heng.
So...... There is only Cao Zhen.
"Forget it, I'll take care of this matter, I can't count on you." Lu Ye let out a long sigh.
