Chapter 11 God-given Commanders
"Mother, what are you doing here? Hurry up, don't you buy it like this! β
Seeing that Zheng Yu was about to kneel in front of him, Yuan Mai was so frightened that he almost jumped up. At the moment, it doesn't matter if any man or woman kisses or not, he grabbed Zheng's arms and pressed her down on the round stool.
Zheng Yu sighed and continued to cry: "My husband has been fighting for many years, and he has been overworked, and his health is getting worse and worse...... If he said that there are three long and two short, then the mother-in-law is ruthless and will definitely not let us two go. It's not a pity for me to die, if my husband goes, I'm willing to go with him, but I'm afraid that this mother-in-law won't let Ah Ying go......"
Hearing Zheng Yu say this, Yuan Mai finally understood Zheng's intentions. Zheng Yu did not get carried away, and did not perceive the danger because of Yuan Shao's favor for her, and was able to predict what would happen to her after Yuan Shao went, this woman can be regarded as a smart person, which cannot but be admired.
In fact, if there is no crossing by Yuan Mai, in the near future, two years after the Battle of Guandu, these five concubines of Yuan Shao will definitely be killed by the vicious Liu family after Yuan Shao's death.
Yuan Mai thought to himself, it was not that these poor women didn't want to fight against fate, but they were just powerless to resist under the power of Liu's mother and son, and in the end they could only accept their tragic fate.
At present, Yuan Mai also needs Zheng's help, which can be described as a hit. At that moment, he got up and hugged his wrist and gave a salute: "Auntie, don't worry, your kindness, buy it in mind, as long as you buy it, you will definitely treat you like your own mother, and treat Ah Ying as a sibling sister." β
Listening to Yuan Mai's words, Zheng Yu cried even more sadly, and said with rain: "If so, I am also smiling under Jiuquan." β
Yuan Mai suddenly thought of a question, in this feudal era, when the descendants of many princes and generals fought for power, many of them relied on the power of their mother's family to win, I don't know what the background of this Zheng family's maiden family is, can they help themselves?
"Buy the courage to ask, is there an official in my mother's ancestor?"
Zheng Yu shook his head without thinking: "What's the matter, my ancestors were all cloth, and in my father's generation, he did some business as a merchant and horse trader, and only then did he earn some family property, but there has never been a person who is an official......"
Zheng Yu remembered something when he said this, and said angrily: "By the way, what you said reminds me of something." A few months ago, my sister wrote a letter to me from Taiyuan County, saying that his uncle's son had become sincere and wanted to join the army to gain fame. Let me tell you about it, and get him an errand in the barracks......
The troops of the Yecheng battalion were all under the command of Yuan Shang, so I went to discuss with Liu Jiao, and asked her to talk to her son and find a good errand for my relative. This mother-in-law also agreed, who knew that my relative entered the barracks, and Yuan Shang actually let him go to the stable to be a groom......"
Zheng Yu was annoyed when he said this, and said hatefully: "If it weren't for this, I wouldn't want to tear up face with this mother-in-law." By doing so, he was clearly humiliating me. So much so that I can't even see my sister's face......"
"It's not a bad thing, but now my father gave me the position of a partial general, and asked me to follow the Northern Expedition of Koyi as a supervisor of the army, and allowed me to recruit a personal army of 500 people. If you have some ability, I will definitely protect him from my father, and I will never let my mother lose face in front of my mother's family. β
Yuan Mai picked up the tea bowl in front of him, tasted it, and said with a smug look on his face.
"Really? If that's the case, Sakura and I will have hope......"
Listening to Yuan Mai's words, Zheng Yu was very excited, and subconsciously grabbed Yuan Mai's arm and asked. For her, the current Yuan Mai is the only life-saving straw, if Yuan Mai can come out, after Yuan Shao dies, she and her daughter will have hope of living.
Yuan Mai felt that Zheng was a little out of shape, coughed, and gently broke free of Zheng Yu's fingers.
Although she and she are in a mother-son relationship, they are not biological after all, and the age difference is only ** years, and the behavior is so intimate, if it is passed out, it will be added to the vinegar by people with ulterior motives, but I am afraid that I will not be able to wash it away if I jump into the Yellow River.
Zheng Yu also knew that he had lost his temper, picked up the tea bowl, and took a sip: "Hehe...... Don't blame you, my mother is so happy. In this troubled era, the military position is much more reliable than the civilian position, and only by having military power in hand can it survive. β
"What Mother said is, I don't know what your relative is called, so I sent someone to the barracks to find him and help me recruit new soldiers."
Seeing that the relationship had been communicated almost, for fear that the delay would be too long, Yuan Mai decided to ask what the son of Zheng Yu's sister's brother-in-law was called, and then got up to say goodbye.
Zheng Yu pondered for a moment and said, "The surname is Hao ...... What's the name? By the way, his name is Bo Dao, but I remember clearly, at this moment, he is working as a groom in the military camp of his nephew Xianrong, ten miles south of the city. β
Listening to Zheng Yu's words, Yuan Mai was first startled, and then ecstatic, the tea bowl in his hand almost fell off the ground, and blurted out two words: "Hao Zhao? β
"Yes, yes, that's the name, it's Hao Zhao, how do you know? Do you know this relative of mine? Zheng Yu said a little strangely.
At this moment, Yuan Mai's heart fluctuated and his heart was surging.
My Great General Hao, Hao Zhao, who resisted the 100,000-strong army of "Wuhou" with 3,000 men in Chencang, is here! God really treats me well, at this moment, Yuan Mai's heart has a lot of emotion!
"Uh...... I'm guessing based on the words of your relative.,I think most of the corresponding words are names like Zhao.γYi.γXin.,I guessed it.,I didn't think of it.,But I was blinded.γ β
Lest Zheng Yu become suspicious, Yuan Mai squeaked indiscriminately, but it was also reasonable, and Zheng was not suspicious.
"Mai'er is really smart!" Zheng Yu praised in admiration.
"Has my mother seen this Hao Bodao, if I know, I will ask my mother to repair a book. I sent someone to the barracks to recruit him and asked him to help me recruit new troops. β
Yuan Mai can't wait to find Hao Zhao at the moment, this is the first talent given to him by God, and it is also a great talent who can be in charge of himself in the future, if he can't be taken under his command, what will he talk about dominating the world in the future!
Zheng Yu hurriedly picked up a pen to repair a book, "I've seen it, I've seen it, this kid came to me with his sister's letter when he first came to Yecheng, so he knows me." is a good figure, the size is the same as Yan Liang and Wen Chou, and his father is a hunter, this child has been hunting in the mountains and forests since he was a child, and his kung fu is very good. β
After listening to Zheng Yu's words, Yuan Mai remembered that Hao Zhao recorded in the history books that he was "nine feet tall, majestic, with extraordinary strength, double belts and two sheaths, and galloping left and right", which was completely consistent with Zheng Yu's description, and it seemed that this person must be the Hao Zhao who was powerful in the battle of Chencang.
Alas, it's no wonder that Yuan Shao lost to Cao Ying, such an outstanding talent doesn't know how to reuse, this Hao Zhao is still a relative of your Yuan Benchu's wife, it's no wonder you don't lose!
However, this Hao Zhao's luck is indeed not good, Li Dian, Le Jin and others who are the same age as him are already famous in their thirties, and they are entrusted with important tasks under Cao Ying. But Hao Zhao, who was not under the five good generals, only shined in the Battle of Chencang when he was in his fifties after Cao Ying's death. Who knows, Emperor Cao Rui of Wei Ming just wanted to reuse him, but he died of illness, which can't help but make people sigh!
Yuan Mai muttered a few words in his heart, while secretly rejoicing that he had met a good general, and after Zheng Yu wrote the letter, he took it and put it in his arms, and hurriedly said goodbye.
Leaving the Zheng family's courtyard, Yuan Mai returned to the house to change into a strong suit, and then took off a saber from the wall and hung it around his waist. In addition, he hung a carver he had bought a few days ago on his body, and carried a pot of arrows in his hand for self-defense.
told Xiao Qi again that he went out tonight, and he might not come back, so that Xiao Qi would go to bed early when he was sleepy. Then he didn't explain what he was doing, and strode away in Xiao Qi's stunned eyes.
Picking a horse from the stable, Yuan Mai turned over the horse, and went straight to the city gate out of the state governor's mansion.
At this time, it was completely dark, and the city gate was about to close, but Yuan Mai had just arrived in front of the city gate when he was stopped by the guards guarding the gate.
"Stop, the time to go out of the city has passed, no one is allowed to enter or leave, if you want to go out of the city, go back and wait for tomorrow."
Yuan Mai was anxious and angry, this kind of thing couldn't wait for a moment, in case he missed Hao Zhao because of this night, he was afraid that this would become a knot that he couldn't untie in his life.
"I am Yuan Mai, the son of the general Yuan Benchu, who is currently engaged in Jizhou classics, a general, and urgently needs to go out of the city due to urgent official business, who dares to stop me, I will not be pardoned!"
Yuan Mai was in a hurry and decided to learn from Koji Yi's practice of forcibly breaking into the door early in the morning.
Sure enough, a number of soldiers guarding the door were frightened by Yuan Mai's self-registration number, one by one, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know what to do. Yuan Mai took advantage of this opportunity to carry the reins of his horse and rushed out of the city gate like a smoke.
