198 generals
Gao Fei, Wang Yunzhi, and Mao Bao, escorted by Wang Dunbu's general Guo Shu, crossed the Han River by boat and arrived in Jiangbei. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Jiangbei is the ground of Yuzhou, belonging to Yiyang County of Yuzhou, Guo Shu ordered people to dock the warship in the center of the river, put down a small boat, and personally sent Gao Fei, Wang Yunzhi, and Mao Bao to the shore of Jiangbei.
As soon as everyone got off the boat, Guo Shu arched his hand and said: "The last general has been ordered to escort you here, and it will be up to you to go north." ”
Gao Fei, Wang Yunzhi, and Mao Bao all bowed their hands and said: "General Lao Guo has sent him off!" ”
Guo Shu suddenly raised his hand and beckoned to the big boat behind him, and after a while, he saw more than a dozen small boats coming from Jiangxin, a carriage on the boat and dozens of war horses.
Just when Gao Fei, Wang Yunzhi, and Mao Bao were all wondering, they saw Guo Shu arch his hand and say: "It's a long way to Yuzhou, and Jiangbei is not as stable as Jiangnan, so it is inevitable that you will encounter some troubles on the way." The general is worried about your safety, so he has specially selected fifty elite horsemen to accompany you, so that you can take care of you on the way. ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw Guo Shu clapping his hands, and fifty elite horsemen poured out from a small forest on the shore, they gathered together, and they were all in battle, all of them were strong and strong, and they were all dressed in the clothes of ordinary people, but they all carried a steel knife in their hands.
At this time, a person walked towards Gao Fei, Wang Yunzhi, Mao Bao, Guo Shu and others, and as soon as they got closer, they clasped their fists and said: "The last general Xu Wei was ordered to wait for the two sons here, and the safety of the two sons along the way will be responsible for the end of the future!" ”
It turned out that the general Wang Dun had already made arrangements, he knew that Jiangbei was not peaceful, and he was worried that Mao Bao alone would not be able to protect the safety of Gao Fei and Wang Yunzhi, so he had already arranged everything last night, and specially dispatched fifty elites from his five hundred horsemen to wait here, so that they could be responsible for protecting the safety of Gao Fei, Wang Yunzhi and others along the way.
Gao Fei, Wang Yunzhi, and Mao Bao were all a little surprised, they didn't expect Wang Dun to make this arrangement, but since Wang Dun had already arranged it, they had no reason to refuse.
At this time, more than a dozen small boats gradually docked, and as soon as Xu Wei gave an order, the horsemen went to pull the carriage and horses off the boat.
Before parting, Guo Shu took out a letter, handed it directly to Gao Fei, and instructed: "Young Master Yu, the last general has a brother of the same clan, named Guo Mo, who is currently under the account of General Zu, please transfer this letter to him, after he reads this letter, he will naturally take good care of you in place of the last general." ”
Gao Fei took the letter handed over by Guo Shu, nodded, and said, "There is General Lao Guo!" ”
Subsequently, Gao Fei, Wang Yunzhi, Mao Bao and others separated from Guo Shu, Mao Bao drove the carriage, Gao Fei and Wang Yunzhi sat in the carriage, and the fifty horsemen led by Xu Wei were all riding horses and scattered around the carriage, and the group went towards Yuzhou along the official road.
A group of people walked all the way north along the official road, walked for three days in a row, and the situation encountered was almost identical, barren farmland can be seen everywhere, and the villages they pass by are already ruined, and the most important thing is that there is no one to see on this road, all of them are desolate scenes.
This huge contrast, with the Han River as the dividing line, the south of the Han River is a prosperous scene, and the north of the Han River is a desolate scene, and the difference between Jiangnan and Jiangbei is so big that it is really staggering.
Yuzhou is located in the Central Plains, is the place of the soldiers, whether it is the Huns established Liu Zhao, or the Qian people established Shi Zhao, the Central Plains as a bag, in recent years, the Central Plains is often invaded by the Hu people, if not the ancestors have led the army has been in the Central Plains with it, I am afraid that now Yuzhou has already fallen under the iron hooves of the Hu people.
Zu Ti has a very outstanding military talent, since he led the army to the Northern Expedition, has been responded to by the people of all parts of the Central Plains, in just a few years, he has recovered a large number of lost land, and with a weak army against the strong Shi Zhao, but still able to achieve many victories, so that Shi Zhao's army does not dare to go south, and Zu Ti's name also shocked the Central Plains.
As a result, Zu Ti began to recruit troops, train troops, and conquer those separatist forces that did not obey the Jin Dynasty, and gradually strengthened his strength.
However, while Zu Ti gradually increased his strength, he also aroused the jealousy of the Sima clan because his power was too strong.
Just when Zu Ti wrote many times to ask the army to continue the Northern Expedition, Sima, as a royal family, has always held a negative attitude.
Not only that, at the beginning of the year, Emperor Sima Rui also specially appointed Dai Yuan as the general of the expedition to the west, and supervised the military of six states, including Sizhou, Yuzhou, Yanzhou, Bingzhou, Yongzhou, and Jizhou, and guarded Hefei.
As the assassin of Yuzhou and the general of Pingbei, Zu Ti must also be under the jurisdiction of Dai Yuan, no matter what kind of action Zu Ti wants to take, he must report it, and only after Dai Yuan agrees, Zu Ti can act. In this way, to a certain extent, Zu Ti was restrained by Dai Yuan, and everything was restricted, thinking of his great achievements for the Jin Dynasty for so many years, but in the end he was suspicious of the Jin Dynasty, and his mood was naturally terrible.
Not long ago, a person named Gan Ding came to visit, claiming to be the son of the new Liangzhou Assassin Shi Gan Zhuo, although Zu Ti had not seen Gan Zhuo, but also knew that Gan Zhuo was a general of the Jin Dynasty, and Gan Zhuo's son came to visit in person, so he naturally would not slack off.
So, Zu Ti met with Gan Ding, and Gan explained his intention to Zu Ti, and presented a letter from his father Gan Zhuo.
After reading Gan Zhuo's letter, Zu Ti's mood improved slightly, and he also learned a message from the letter that a child named Wang Yu would come to visit him in the near future, that person was the son of Prime Minister Wang Dao, and he was also Gan Zhuo's apprentice.
Since then, Zu Ti has been restless, not knowing why such a person came to see him.
Zu Ti waited for almost half a month, but he still didn't see the so-called person named Wang Yu appear, so he was a little impatient. So, Zu Ti danced the sword every day to relieve his worries.
On this day, Zu Ti was dancing his sword in the courtyard, and a henchman ran over from outside in a panic, and shouted at Zu Ti: "It's coming, it's coming...... My lord, he's coming......"
Zu Ti asked while dancing the sword: "Look at you in a panic, who is coming?" ”
The henchman said: "My lord, the person you were waiting for is here!" ”
As soon as Zu Ti heard this, he immediately retracted his sword momentum, hurriedly looked at his henchman and asked, "Where is that person?" ”
The henchman said: "I have been arranged to wait in the front hall of the mansion." ”
Zu Ti inserted the long sword into the scabbard, and with a casual throw, the long sword was placed on the weapon rack, and that kind of precision was really rare.
I saw him striding towards the front hall, and he couldn't wait to see the person who came to see him, and he wanted to know what this person's purpose was!
