Chapter 59: Counting Each Other

Yuan Shu and Guo Jia formed a mortal enmity in Luoyang, and they got to the bottom of it, not for the public or for the private part, and the grudge between the two was unbelievable in the eyes of outsiders.

There is no doubt that Yuan Shu and Guo Jia are indeed enemies, so Yuan Shu sent an envoy, and Yuan Yin, as Yuan Shu's younger brother, showed his attention, and secondly, Yuan Yin came as a representative to turn enemies into friends with Guo Jia.

Talking about business is naturally on a formal occasion, but before going on business, you must first resolve personal grievances, so Yuan Yin invited Guo Jia into the carriage.

On Guo Jia's situation, Yuan Yin and Yang Hong already have a preconceived impression, on the surface a sympathetic look, but in the heart gloating, Yuan Shu wants Guo Jia to be cannon fodder, so that he can attack Jingzhou more easily, when the time comes, offside, command Jingzhou, Yangzhou, Yuzhou, and Yizhou Guo Jia is inevitably in a-for-tat position, Guo Jia, Yuan Shu sits on half of the country, Guo Jiazhan, Yizhou may not be able to block the power of Yuan Shu's three states.

"General, my lord is sent to the next, there is a matter that needs to be Chen Qing in person, when Luoyang is said to be a misunderstanding between my lord and the general, it is Yuan Shao who provoked it, my lord was concerned about the feelings of brotherhood at that time, a thought of the difference, so that the general is in danger, this matter has always been my lord's heart, the general is a hero in the world, my lord is entangled in official business can not come to the general to ask for guilt, and he is specially ordered to apologize to the general."

Yuan Yin solemnly bowed, with a hint of apology in his respect, and Yang Hong also bowed down, adding some sincerity to Yuan Yin's reparation.

Guo Jia had already expected that if Yuan Shu sent an envoy to attack Liu Biao with him, he would at least release his previous suspicions, but he didn't expect that Yuan Yin, as a child of the Yuan family, would come with such a big gift.

After all, you can't underestimate Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu, Liu Yan, Tao Qian and other characters are even straw bales, they are also straw bales of the grade of Xiaoxiong, if you really disdain these characters, you will definitely suffer a big loss.

Now that Yuan Shu is powerful, he can still send Yuan Yin to make amends to Guo Jia, although the purpose is to deceive Guo Jia, but it is not a decision that ordinary people can easily make.

Smiling and helping the two up, Guo Jia said: "I am not to blame for the past, I had no one in Luoyang back then, and I was also to blame for being in a dead situation, and I can't blame others." When the world was in turmoil, Dong Zhuo stole the Dragon Court, Yuan Taishou was concerned about the common people, and all the princes were bent on supporting the Han on the surface, but they all led troops back, but Yuan Taishou led his troops to lead the troops to fight with Dong Zhuo for a long time. ”

False and real, true and false, Guo Jia's words were scoffed in the hearts of the three of them, if Guo Jiazhen was to the Han family, he would not let Dong Zhuo go in Kunshan, and if Yuan Shuzhen was dedicated to helping the Han, he would not recall Sun Jian to take Yuzhou in a hurry.

Anyway, everyone knows the specific situation, after the scene is finished, the old grudges should be resolved, and the three of them can't talk about the short trivial matters in the parents, and there is nothing to talk about, but both parties have common enemies.

Guo Jia did not accept Dong Zhuo's recruitment, Yuan Shu refused to negotiate peace with Dong Zhuo, in order to avoid a dull atmosphere and a deserted scene, the three of them began to scold Dong Zhuo impassionedly...... The mighty team headed towards Chengdu, Yuan Yin's convoy was in front, and Xu Shu, Qin Mi, Dian Wei and others led 3,000 teams to follow.

Dian Wei Ping said that he had the best personal relationship with Xu Chu, and often drank and talked in his spare time, Xu Chu was a person who couldn't hide his thoughts, and he said everything to Dian Wei, Dian Wei was originally open-minded, he listened to Xu Chu say a lot, and if he had doubts in his heart, he also liked to confide, he was the same as Xu Chu, it was not good to ask Guo Jia, but Xi Zhicai and Xu Shu often solved their doubts.

"Military advisor, Dong Zhuo sent a messenger here, the lord ordered people to fight with sticks, Yuan Shu sent a messenger, why did the lord greet him so politely?"

When Dian Wei Zema came to Xu Shu's side, he couldn't suppress his words, and the strategists around him also heard his question.

Anyway, they were far away from the carriage in front of them, and they were not afraid that the conversation would be heard by Yuan Shu's soldiers in front, Xu Shu smiled and said: "If you are small and loyal, you will be a thief of great loyalty." ”

Dian Wei's expression was displeased, and he said, "Strategist, can you explain the words?" ”

Xu Shu smiled and explained: "Dong Zhuo is a national thief, Yuan Shu is one of the princes of the Xingyi Army, if the lord is loyal to Dong Zhuo, although he is subordinate to the Han family on the surface, he has lost the righteousness of the world, at this moment, the righteousness is on the side of Yuan Shu and other princes." Therefore, although Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shu are both enemies of the lord, they must be treated differently. ”

"Is that a crime worthy of two hundred miles? Yuan Shu is also matched? Even if Yuan Shu wins Jingzhou, is the lord still afraid that he can't beat Yuan Shu? Dian Wei was very angry, and gritted his teeth when he thought of Yuan Shu.

Xu Shu smiled silently, his eyes fell on Qin Mi beside him, Qin Mi saw him looking, his expression was playful, and he reluctantly opened his mouth and said: "Acting for one's own use, rude princes, and death." The lord greeted him for 200 miles, which was for the princes of the world to see, not to please Yuan Shu. If you don't measure your strength internally, you will rely on the princes externally, and you will also be in trouble with cutting the country. Pour the power of Yizhou to fight Liu Biao and Yuan Shu, and the lord can win, but the lord can't stop the princes of the world from attacking together, so he must show weakness, remove the princes' defense, and give the lord enough time to recuperate and self-improvement. ”

After Qin Mi said this, Dian Wei suddenly realized, but then questioned: "Previously, the lord said that Yuan Shu sent an envoy to let the lord send troops to fight Liu Biao, but now the lord greeted Yuan Shu's envoy with courtesy, is he planning to agree to Yuan Shu?" ”

This time, Dian Wei's gaze was over Xu Shu to Qin Mi, for this new strategist valued by Guo Jia, Dian Wei had a good impression of him, as for Qin Mi's friend Peng Yi, Dian Wei was disgusted from the bottom of his heart.

Qin Mi smiled and said, "General Dian, Brother Yuan just said that Yuan Shu and other princes are the great righteousness, but if Yuan Shu is to kill Liu Biao, think about who Liu Biao is?" The Han clan and the eight horses of the world, when the lord attacked Jingzhou last year, Liu Biao did not publicly mention Jingzhou, and now, everyone in the world already knows that Liu Biao is the justifiable Jingzhou pastor, Yuan Shu cut Liu Biao, contrary to the righteousness, he is Nanyang Taishou, nominally or under the rule of Jingzhou Mu, he not only wants to commit chaos, but also point the spearhead at the Han clan, how can the lord be in the same stream with Yuan Shu? ”

Dian Wei, who has been in the midst of contradictions, eliminated the doubts in his heart, he wanted to go on the expedition, but he didn't want to have anything to do with Yuan Shu, hearing Qin Mi's explanation, fortunately at the same time, his mood was a little lower, and it was estimated that ninety percent of the battles would not be able to fight.

It was not until the evening that Guo Jia greeted Yuan Yin and Yang Hong's team to return to Chengdu, and after entering the city of Chengdu, the generals and ministers dismounted and walked, and after Xiao Yi led the personal guards to take over, Dian Wei led his soldiers back to the barracks.

Yuan Yin, who lifted the curtain from time to time to look at the street scene of Chengdu, shook his head slightly, the market was depressed, there were few passers-by, and there was no trace of prosperity at all.

This actually has a lot to do with last year's rebellion, many wealthy families in Chengdu were purged after the rebellion, and today's Yizhou is indeed not prosperous, everything is in the process of reconstruction.

did not let Yuan Yin and Yang Hong go to the post house, Guo Jia took them straight to the General's Mansion, where there were many guest rooms in the mansion for them to stay.

Looking at the magnificent General's Mansion on the stairs, Yuan Yin and Yang Hong were a little shocked, the contrast was too great! Along the way, Yizhou was extremely poor and poor, and Guo Jia was dressed shabby, but he didn't expect to have such a luxurious mansion.

"Previously, this was Liu Yan's state governor's mansion." After Guo Jia said this, the two of them understood.

Guo Jia can live in such a good house, it seems that it is still thanks to Liu Yan.

It was getting late, and if we wanted to talk about business, we had to wait for tomorrow, so Guo Jia held a banquet in the mansion to entertain the envoys who came from afar.

When the subordinate led the way to the guest room in Fuzhong, Yuan Yin and Yang Hong were silent, and their hearts were mixed.

Guo Jia's hospitality is coarse tea and light rice, the two of them followed Yuan Shu to eat and drink spicy food in Nanyang, and they didn't expect Guo Jia to serve them with wine and food, but they didn't expect that the food they ate at a dinner party tasted like chewing wax, but they couldn't help but eat, not only Guo Jia's martial arts, but even Guo Jia ate with relish, this bitter saying is really used to it!

The furnishings and utensils in the General's Mansion are also extremely simple, and in the eyes of Yuan Yin and Yang Hong, it is really a waste of a luxurious and elegant house.

The two of them had been thinking about their hearts, and let the guards in Guo Jia's mansion lead them towards the guest room, and after stopping in front of the door, when the guards were about to leave, the two of them retracted their thoughts, Yuan Yin pressed the guard, frowned and asked, "Why don't you light up in the house?" ”

Yang Hong didn't notice it yet, after listening to Yuan Yin's question, he looked around and found that there was really no light in this huge general's mansion, only the moonlight shimmered for the eye to see, if this was an assassin, what a good natural environment!

As if suddenly realized, the guard handed the lamp illuminated during the guide to Yuan Yin, and said, "This is the general's order, everything is frugal." ”

Candles are considered luxuries, Yuan Yin and Yang Hong don't ask, I heard that Guo Jia also issued a ban on alcohol in Yizhou, and merchants can't make wine, in order to save food.

It's really distressing to be so poor.

They didn't know that one day, Yuan Shu would be poorer than Guo Jia pretending to be poor now.

Yuan Yin and Yang Hong pushed open the door, the furnishings in the room were simple, although the bedding on the bed did not look beautiful, it was spotless and clean, and the two of them did not mind these side details.

The two who slept together were half a meter apart, and Yuan Yin, who couldn't sleep under the quilt, suddenly asked: "Guo Jia's miserable situation is bleak, will he be willing to send troops to attack Liu Biao?" ”

Yang Hong also couldn't sleep, and said: "He is short of food in Yizhou, and the lord can use grain and grass for his benefit to lure him to send troops." ”

Yuan Yin said not optimistically: "But if Guo Jia really captured Jingzhou, wouldn't he raise tigers for trouble?" ”

In this regard, Yang Hong did not dare to disagree, and scoffed at Guo Jia's remarks that he was able to defeat Liu Biao.

"When Guo Jia was the strongest, it was before he sent troops to Jingzhou last year, and then, he not only lost soldiers and horses in Jingzhou, but also beheaded his generals, and some generals rebelled with the wealthy clans, he failed to capture Jingzhou when he was the strongest, and it is even more impossible to take Jingzhou now."
