Chapter 117: Gongsun Chan asks for help
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, more than half a year has passed, and in half a year, Sun Jian finally followed Zhang Zai's advice and the advice of the strategists around him, and used the jade seal to exchange 5,000 war horses and 500,000 stone grain from Yuan Shu's hands, and left Yuan Shu's command to go to Yuzhang to take root.

One day, Zhang Zai was not reading in the study, and suddenly received a report that the envoy of Gongsun Zan of Youzhou came, Zhang Zai was stunned after hearing it, and then ordered someone to take him to the study.
The person who came was a middle-aged man, his face was tired, as if he had been in a hurry overnight, the man saw Zhang Zai, bowed down and said: "Youzhou Tian Yu Tian Guorang, meet the general of Zhengbei." ”
It was him, Zhang Zai's heart moved, Tian Yu was the only talent in Gongsun Zhan's army who could take charge alone, and he was also the most capable talent in Gongsun Zhan's army.
"Tian Yuzi Guorang: 70 strength, 74 skills, 88 commands, 91 strategies, 83 internal affairs, and 85 politics."
Like a weakened version of Wang Meng, looking at Tian Yu's attributes, Zhang Zai couldn't help but nod in his heart, such attributes were more than enough in the Three Kingdoms period.
"The country is exempt, please be seated." Zhang Zai wanted to leave a good impression on Tian Yu, so he gave him a seat.
"General Xie's seat." Tian Yu bowed again, glanced at Zhang Zai, and then quickly retracted his gaze and sat on the seat that Zhang Zai pointed to.
"I wonder how Brother Bo is doing lately?" Jang Jae seemed to be asking about his long-time friend, and he seemed very kind.
"With General Lao's concern, the lord is all right."
Tian Yu didn't know if Zhang Zai really didn't know Gongsun Zhan's situation, anyway, he didn't believe that Zhang Zai didn't arrange a detailed work in Youzhou.
However, since Zhang Zai asked about Gongsun Zhan, listening to the tone, it was like greeting a friend, since Zhang Zai had such affection in his heart, he might be able to ask Zhang Zai to send troops on this trip.
Tian Yu unconsciously relaxed a lot, his eyes moved slightly, and he replied: "General Lao is concerned, and everything is fine with the lord." ”
When Zhang Zai heard Tian Yu's answer, his eyes showed nostalgia, as if he had fallen into memory, and muttered: "After a few years, I think of Brother Bo Jue's demeanor, as if he is in front of him, which is really nostalgic." ”
Tian Yu looked at Zhang Zai, whose eyes were confused, and the stone in his heart was completely put down, and there was a drama in his heart, so he said: "The lord often misses the general's demeanor, and often talks to Yu and others about the general's majesty in the Tiger Prison Pass, and praises the general's fierce generals gathered, and often says that it is a big pity to hate not being able to fight side by side with the general." ”
Tian Yu's words were full of praise, but the tone was neither humble nor arrogant, and there was no trace of flattery.
Zhang Zai laughed after hearing this, and then said: "Brother Bo Jue is serious, today, who doesn't know the name of General Baima. ”
After some reminiscence, Zhang Zai finally asked: "I don't know why the country is coming?" ”
Before, Tian Yu saw that Zhang Zai never asked about his intentions, although he didn't say it, but he was already a little anxious in his heart, now Gongsun Zan in Youzhou is retreating, Yuan Shao and others are about to attack Yijing, one minute later, Yijing has the possibility of being broken by Yuan Shao and others.
Seeing that Zhang Zai finally asked him what he meant, Tian Yu put away his smile, his face was straight, and he got up and bowed: "Liu Yu's old department colluded with Yan Rou, Karasuma, Xianbei and other alien races, and united with Jizhou Yuan Shao to attack Youzhou, the lord was invincible, and he had retreated to Yijing. ”
In fact, the bad people had already sent the news of Youzhou back, and when Tian Yu arrived, he guessed the purpose of Tian Yu's trip, and originally he thought that if Gongsun Chan didn't ask for help from him, he would wait until he was most in danger and then send troops to help, but he didn't expect that Gongsun Chan's envoy would come to the door so soon.
A few months ago, Xian Yufu, a subordinate of the former Youzhou Mu Liu Yu, elected Yan Rou as Karasuma Sima, tangled a large number of troops, and united with Yuan Shao to attack Gongsun Zhan, among which Liu He, the son of the former Zhou Mu Liu Yu, who lived in Jizhou, was also among them.
At the beginning of the war, Gongsun Zhan's subordinates were defeated one after another, several counties in Youzhou rebelled, Gongsun Chan retreated to Yijing, and now the only person who can help him is Zhang Zai, although I don't know if Zhang Zai will do such a thing, but as a last resort, Gongsun Chan can only send someone to ask for help.
"There is such a thing!" Zhang Zai pretended to be surprised, and then shouted outside the door: "Come on, go and engage in Guo Jia, don't drive Wang Meng to invite here." ”
The soldiers outside the door answered their promises.
Then Zhang Zai explained to Tian Yu: "I've been busy with army training recently, and I've only been idle in the past two days, and I haven't heard about it yet. ”
Less leaning, Wang Meng and Guo Jia came together.
"Meet my lord." The two entered the house and bowed in unison.
"Two exempt from courtesy, this is Youzhou Tian Yu, or the envoy under Gongsun Boju." Zhang Zai introduced to the two.
The two of them suddenly understood in their hearts, and then greeted Tian Yu.
After the three of them finished saluting, Zhang Zaifang asked, "Fengxiao, do you know about the war in Youzhou?" ”
Guo Jia was stunned for a moment, then reacted and replied, "I know." ”
"Then why don't you report it?" Zhang Zai's tone was aggravated and he asked.
Guo Jia secretly rolled his eyes, kept slandering in his heart, and then explained: "Jia saw that the lord has been working hard recently, and thought that if these little things are trivial, there is no need to trouble the lord anymore, so he didn't report it." ”
"Hmph, it's about Brother Boju's safety, how can it be a trivial matter." Zhang Zai snorted coldly.
"It's Jia who makes his own opinion, please punish the lord." Guo Jia bowed reluctantly.
Tian Yu on the side saw the two talking, although he suspected that the two were acting, but seeing that their expressions did not seem to be fake, he had to persuade: "The general does not have to blame Guo Zheng, and this matter is not Guo Zheng's fault." ”
Now that the situation is in crisis, he doesn't want to waste time in this regard, and offend the officials of the state in vain.
"Since the state has interceded for you, I will not pursue your fault this time." Zhang Zai said in a cold tone.
Guo Jia was "flattered" and bowed to Tian Yu: "Thank you for pleading." ”
Tian Yu waved his hand to help Guo Jia up, and said, "Guo Cheng is serious. ”
Then Tian Yu turned his head to look at Zhang Zai and asked, "I wonder when the general will be able to send troops?" ”
Zhang Zai quietly glanced at Wang Meng, and Wang Meng nodded knowingly.
Seeing Wang Meng nodding, Zhang Zai immediately said: "Quickly assemble the troops, prepare grain and grass, and send the troops to Youzhou tomorrow." ”
As soon as Tian Yu was about to thank him, Wang Meng on the side poured a basin of cold water on his head: "The lord may have forgotten that there are only 3,000 troops left in the city at present, and the rest of the soldiers are still practicing outside the county, and I don't know when they will return." ”
Zhang Zai was stunned, then frowned, and said, "Oh, it's a monthly training now, so can you get in touch now?" ”
Wang Meng hesitated, thought for a while and said: "They are led by the generals, and there is no route for their actions in the general's mansion, so there may be some trouble. ”
Zhang Zai said categorically: "Since we can get in touch, let's contact them as quickly as possible and order them to return quickly." ”
"No." Wang Meng took the order and came out.
After Wang Meng left, Zhang Zaifang said to Tian Yu: "Please also ask the country to wait for some time, the army will train in the field, this matter is only the responsibility of the generals who lead the army, and the time will not be too long, I believe they will return soon." ”
Tian Yu also felt helpless after hearing this, but since this was the rule in the Bingzhou army, he didn't have any requirements, so he could only feel that he was unlucky, so he proposed to retire and go down to rest first.
