Chapter 87: Bitter Flesh Takes Heart

Yuan Shao sighed, raised his head and touched the top of Yuan Tan's head, and sighed with relief: "My unicorn has grown up, and I can share my father's worries." ”

Whether it is a prince, a general or an ordinary person, he will always be a child who will not grow up in front of his parents, but Yuan Tan's appearance is somewhat disguised.

He was happy in his heart at this moment, because he knew that his weight in his father's heart was a little heavier at this moment, which would be of great help to him in inheriting his father's position in the future.

Although he is Yuan Shao's son-in-law, it is not so simple to inherit Yuan Shao's position, even if Yuan Shao agrees, it depends on the opinions of his military officials, as well as the opinions of the wealthy families.

Even if the civil and military officials and the wealthy families are on his side with Yuan Tan, it depends on the attitude of his two younger brothers, which involves too many things.

And Yuan Tan only asked the young general to report Guo Jia, just so that he came forward to say good things for Guo Jia, because he knew in his heart that Guo Jia was a genius in the world, and his father would definitely be reluctant, and he could get his father's appreciation by pushing the boat down the river, so why not?

Yuan Shao patted Yuan Tan on the shoulder, asked him to retreat into the hall, and looked around at everyone just as he was about to speak, when he saw Guo Tu coming from outside the door.

Guo Tu stepped forward quickly, arched his hand and said, "Gongsun Zhan has sent someone to shoot a letter with a bow and arrow, and the lord will meet tomorrow in the Jiehe." ”

"What do you think?" Yuan Shao asked.

Guo Tu arched his hand again and said: "Guo Taishou (1) (Ben) [Read] The novel YBDU Tianzong Wizard, just broke the enemy army, and beheaded 20,000, at this moment, our army's momentum is like a rainbow when a drum breaks Gongsun Zhan. ”

The rest of the civil and military affairs all discussed it, and finally arched their hands and said: "The minister seconded the proposal." ”

"Good!" Yuan Shaohu slapped his arm and said resolutely: "Tomorrow, Bohai will leave 10,000 defenders, and the rest of the soldiers will be in line with me!" ”

"My lord, although our army is as imposing as a rainbow, the enemy army is a multiple of our army." Guo Tu paused for a moment and said: "Bohai Qingzhuang has fought several battles with the enemy, which can be said to know oneself and know the enemy, and with the wind of great victory, thousands of troops can be gathered, and our army's chances of victory are one step higher." ”

Yuan Shao rubbed his temples, he heard that Guo Tu's words were somewhat alluding to Guo Jia, but just now his son Yuan Tan had opened his heart knot for him, and his guard against Guo Jia was not too heavy.

After thinking about it for a while, he felt that although Guo Tu's words were suspected of attacking Guo Jia, it was not unreasonable, so he said: "Okay, according to what Mr. said, I ordered Guo Fengxiao to gather the young people in the city, no, I will personally invite you." ”

Yuan Tan suddenly bowed his hand and said: "Father has been marching for several days, and he is tired and tired at the moment, it is better to let his sons do the work for him, and there is the gift of master and apprentice, it may be more convenient for me to go." ”

Yuan Shao looked at Yuan Tan, and the more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became, he nodded, and said, "This matter will be up to you." ”

Yuan Tan gave up his hand, exited the hall, turned around and walked towards Guo Jia's residence, and without taking two steps, he suddenly had an idea and thought about it.

He quickly summoned his cronies and ordered someone to beat his twenty boards, these twenty boards went down, Yuan Tan's ass bloomed, and the flesh and blood were blurred, but it was indeed a wound that did not hurt the flesh, looking at the serious injury, in fact, it was not a big problem.

Yuan Tan gritted his teeth and held back, but he kept enlightening himself in his heart, in order to let Guo Jia return to his heart, it was nothing to endure this little hardship.

Guo Tu sneered in his heart after seeing Yuan Tan leave, he knew very well that it was better to induce Yuan Shao to be suspicious in his heart than to persuade him directly, his plan could be described as vicious, if Guo Jia really gathered thousands of young people with a wave of his hand, then what would Yuan Shao think?

People's hearts, human nature, this is the case, it is not Guo Tu's good strategy, but the people's hearts, it is like this, those who can know the people's hearts well but can use them skillfully are first-class strategists.

What intrigue and trickery is, to put it bluntly, it's all one word, deception.

How to scam? deceived the other party and made the other party believe it in their hearts.

……

……

Guo Jia is a person who can enjoy life, slightly drunk after drinking, lying on the rocking chair in the room and swinging, holding a roll of bamboo slips in his mouth and reading aloud, very chic.

He didn't worry about his own safety at all, he knew his position in Yuan Shao's heart, and he knew what he meant in Yuan Shao's camp.

It means that every poor scholar can be reused by Yuan Shao as long as he is talented, even if Yuan Shao is ready to attack Guo Jia, he will not kill Guo Jia, but will only keep Guo Jia away from the center of power.

Just like Cao Cao in history, Guan Yu is collected, first, because Cao Cao really appreciates Guan Yu, and second, for political reasons, Guan Yu is to accept the hearts of scholars who have the ability but no background in the world, don't explain much.

Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, Guo Jia put down the bamboo slip and looked up, only to see Yuan Tan coming from a distance.

Guo Jia stood up and said, "Big boy." ”

Yuan Tan returned the salute and said, "The student greets the teacher." ”

It's just the etiquette of meeting, what's the use of politeness? Reduce the cost of communication between people.

"What is the matter with Childe?" Guo Jia was a little curious, although he was smart, he couldn't guess what happened to Yuan Tan.

Yuan Tan smiled: "Congratulations to the teacher, my father named the teacher as the pastor of Youzhou." ”

"Youzhou Mu? It's a big deal, but it's a pity that it's just a false name, but this honor is also in line with my contribution to Bohai. Guo Jia was slightly shocked in his heart, and said: "Tongxi, Tongxi, the lord's army is coming, and Sun Zhan is just around the corner." ”

Guo Jia changed his words and asked, "Is the son's health in trouble?" He had already seen that Yuan Tan was a little inconvenient when he walked, but he didn't have time to ask.

"No problem, no problem." Yuan Tan smiled, and changed the topic again: "The teacher sees that our army is fighting with Gongsun Zhan's army, what are the odds of winning?" ”

"Ahh Yuan Tan suddenly let out a wolf howl, and it turned out that Guo Jia had raised his leg and gently kicked Yuan Tan's ass.

Yuan Tan's buttocks were beaten, and he jumped up instinctively when he was affected by Guo Jia's kick, and the wolf howl was not faked, it really hurt.

Guo Jia could see that Yuan Tan had changed into a new dress, but there were still red spots oozing, suspected to be bloodstains, so Guo Jia gave it a try.

This is Yuan Tan's cleverness, he knows very well that Guo Jia is by no means a stupid person like that young general, and it is impossible to buy Guo Jia's hearts with ordinary measurements.

He deliberately ordered someone to beat himself on the 20th board but changed into a new outfit, just to pretend that nothing happened, he pretended to be very serious, and he didn't deliberately show flaws to Guo Jia, because he knew that Guo Jia's eyesight would definitely find out.

"Childe, what is this?" Guo Jia's heart warmed, how smart he was, the only person who dared to move Yuan Tan in this Bohai City was Yuan Shao.

And he and Yuan Tan guarded Bohai City together, without a trace of fault but with great merit, now that Yuan Tan was beaten, Guo Jia didn't have to think about it to guess that it was Yuan Tan who interceded in front of Yuan Shao for himself, maybe it would be like this after a few words of language collision.

Yuan Tan knew in his heart that Guo Jia had been tricked, so he laughed miserably and said: "It's okay to be a teacher, I told my father that I want to lead the troops as the vanguard and break Gongsun Zhan, but my father didn't obey, and he was hit by the board after a few words." ”
