Chapter Ninety-Six: White Horse Ferry

Baimajin, located at the ferry port on the south bank of the Yellow River, 20 miles northwest of Huaxian County, thousands of Bohai soldiers are 100 steps away, and they dare not come forward to disturb the 45-degree look up at the sky, and their faces are full of remembrance of their own lord who is sad.

Yuan Shao stood at the ferry, the wind suddenly rose, blowing his sleeves frequently, and the mount raised its head and hissed northward.

As far as the eye can see, there are scorched earth, ruined farmland and estates, dead fruit trees standing in the wilderness, bridges burned, freezing rain overflowing, wild wolves howling, and uninhabited land for thousands of miles.

"The white bones are exposed in the wilderness, and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles. The people are left behind, and the thought breaks people's intestines. ”

The long sword touched the ground, and Yuan Benchu remembered his sorrow: "Meng De's words are not bad!" ”

"But you still don't want to see me? Don't you even want to give it away? ”

Xu You heard his lord's muttering, so he replied: "Lord, Meng De's heart is depressed, and he will be fine in a few days." ”

"Hey! Let's hope for it~~~"

Time will slowly settle, and some people will slowly blur in their hearts.

"Suck ~~~"

Taking a deep breath, Yuan Shao sobered up a lot and remembered some past events many years ago.

When he was young, he tried to be a ranger with Cao Cao, and once went to see someone else's house to marry a daughter-in-law, and when he saw that the bride was beautiful, the two of them were a little moved, so they quietly sneaked into the garden where the newcomer lived.

At ten o'clock in the middle of the night, they shouted in unison, "The thief is coming!" ”。

When the whole family ran out to catch the thief, this Cao Mengde drew his sword and kidnapped the bride and walked back with him, but in the middle of the night, the lights were blind, and they couldn't find their way, and if they were not careful, they fell into the thorn bushes.

Especially Yuan Shao himself, he was stuck in it and couldn't get out, but Cao Cao came out, but he shouted: "The thief is here!" He was sold decisively.

"He~~~He"

Yuan Shao touched his long beard, and his face showed a little nostalgia, Meng De was treacherous at that time. wants to use him to attract the newlywed family who are chasing and killing, and then run away alone.

But at that time, although he was afraid, he still did not hurry to cut the thorns before jumping out. In the end, neither was caught.

Afterwards, Cao Mengde brazenly said that his words were not to attract chasers, but to stimulate his potential.

Plight!

to be able to unleash your endless potential!

At that time, Meng De was despicable and shameless. made Yuan Shao's heart angry, and even his liver was full of anger, so he sent someone to stab Cao Cao with a sword that night.

Later, he regretted it, and when he went to see Cao Cao the next day, he found that Cao Mengde was safe and sound, and heard him boast about the bravery of last night's horror night.

It turned out that the assassin had infiltrated his house last night and had not lifted the quilt, but had stabbed him straight through, and the first sword stabbed down. missed, Cao Cao thought that his next sword must be high, so he clinged to the bed, and the second sword was really high.

Just as the assassin was stunned that he had missed either sword, Cao Cao's ensuing shouts frightened him away.

"Hey~~~"

The carefree years of youth have finally turned into songs, passing like flowers.

We are always growing up, gradually finding or losing ourselves. Time flies so fast that we can't go back to the way we used to be.

"Send this letter to Chen Liu urgently. It must be handed over to Cao Cao. ”

"No!"

Xu Yu whispered in response, and then stepped back.

The years urge people to grow old, and time passes, leaving only the traces of those years. Engraved in the depths of my heart.

Walking through a trampled wheat field, even Xu You, who had always been calm, was brought out some sad nostalgia by his lord.

At that time, together with Han Fu, the assassin of Jizhou, after withdrawing from Luoyang City, they immediately came to the outside of Chenliu County.

I thought that Cao Cao, who was guarding Chen for Zhang Miao, would welcome the arrival of his friend and alliance leader. Who knows, but it is a closed door.

"Humph!"

The lord, who has always been good-looking, saw the crossbowmen on Chen Liucheng, who was waiting for the battle, his face was cold, and he directly ordered to speed up the march and leave Cao Cao's temporary residence.

"In the past, the four sons of Luoyang are almost falling apart now!"

Strategist Xu You, after sighing, put away his sorrowful color, his face became firm, the lord was sometimes sentimental, sometimes decisive in killing, and he wanted to help the lord leave the suspense in his heart!

"There must be no mistake in handing over this letter to Chen Liucao Cao urgently."

After walking a hundred steps, Xu You handed over the bamboo slip to the herald, and when he turned around, he saw two soldiers wearing the crown of virtuous people coming.

"Brother Gongze and Brother Zhongzhi, don't listen to orders under Han Tingshi's account, what are you doing here?"

Guo Tu and Xin Ping looked at each other and smiled at each other and said in unison: "We want to meet Yuan Gong, and I want to send a state of land as a meeting gift~~~"

"The land of a state?"

Xu You's face flushed, as if he had thought of something, so he hurriedly pulled the two of them aside and said in a low voice: "Could it be that Han Thorn History, does it really mean to give in?" ”

"None! But I'll wait, I can give it a try! ”

Wearing a purple embroidered robe, Guo Tu tied a delicate inlaid jade ring around his waist, and his face was full of confidence.

"In that case, please come with me, both of you."

The cold wind was bleak, and the land was a reckless scene. A rain flower fell from the air, dripping on Yuan Shao's hand, and the cold and piercing feeling immediately hit his heart.

He tightened the long sword in his hand, and the coldness from his fingertips cleared his mind.

"Step~~~Step"

The sound of footsteps came from far and near, and Yuan Shao raised his eyes and saw several people clearly.

"The two great talents of Gongze and Zhongzhi do not dislike Yuan's lonely and helpless downfall, and they are willing to come and see it, which really makes Yuan feel fortunate in three lives!"

After speaking, Yuan Shao pinned the long sword to his waist, and bowed to Guo Tu and Xin Ping with great courtesy.

"Gong Yuan treats me so politely, it really makes me ashamed."

Yuan Shao, who was helped up, looked at the two people with excitement on their faces, and his heart was a little moved, if he could accept these two people as strategists, then Jizhou could almost be said to be at his fingertips.

A pair of gold thread smeared with green soap kicked towards the boots, Guo Tu returned to static, and pointed to the Taotao Yellow River: "Yuan Gong, this is the White Horse Ferry, which runs through the Central Plains and Hebei, and is the land of soldiers." ”

"What the public rule says is true!"

According to the plan on the road, Xu Yu said: "In the second Qin Dynasty, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang rebelled in Daze Township, went down to Chenzhou without a fight, and after sweeping the Central Plains, they sent people to cross the river from Baimajin in July and take Zhao land in the north. ”

In August of the third year of Gaozu, Emperor Gaozu sat in Xingyang City, and made the generals Liu Jia and Lu Juan lead 20,000 troops, crossed Baimajin, and went around Hebei into Chu to cut off the grain route of the Chu army. After that, he guarded Bai Majin, so that Xiang Yu could not take care of his head and tail. ”

"Hmm~~~"

Although Yuan Shao didn't understand why as soon as they came to speak, they led the topic to the shocking war four hundred years ago, but with some of the aura of a master, he still had a good ability to answer: "When Yuan crosses south to the Central Plains in the future, he will use this as a base." ”

"Yuan Gong is wise!"

The three of them looked at each other, and they could see the joy in each other's eyes, as they all read some extremely important information. (To be continued.) )
