The sky on the west side of Taihang Mountain was later than that in the east, and when the morning sun sprinkled on the soldiers covered with dust and blood, their faces were full of exhaustion.

After the caliber, to the north is the official post avenue, there is no danger of the fortress, all the way to the county town, can be described as unimpeded. Koji Yi relaxed his heart, and ordered him to set up camp, so that the soldiers who had fought all night could rest for a day and a night, and then march north tomorrow.

After the camp was set up, the number of people was counted, and all the officers and soldiers lost less than five hundred, while the Black Mountain thieves killed were five or six thousand, and occupied the Caliber of Fu that had been controlled by the Black Mountain thieves, this battle was a complete victory over Zhang Yan!

"Hahaha...... The four sons are talented, and Hebei is expected to dominate in the future! Tian Feng stroked his beard, looked at the soldiers who were resting, stood side by side with Yuan Mai and Lu Yi in front of the big tent of the Chinese army, and praised him sincerely.

Hearing Tian Feng say this, Yuan Mai was happy in his heart. The meaning of this has been made very clear, you are much stronger than the three brothers, and no matter which of them inherits the inheritance of the lord, it may not be able to make a difference. And you, the fourth son, have already made a blockbuster, if you inherit the foundation of the lord in the future, it may be possible for the Hebei Legion to achieve a hegemony!

"Mr. has won the award, carving insect skills, not enough to worry about teeth." Yuan Mai was dressed in armor and a gray cloak, looking very heroic, and stood behind Tian Feng and said modestly.

Koji Yi stretched out his hand and rubbed his messy beard, and said roughly: "I won't say so many crepe words, but this battle is beautiful!" I admire you! How can you be sure that you will not fight to the death, and you will defect? Amazing, amazing! I've rarely been convinced in my life, but this time, I admire you! It is much stronger than your three elder brothers, and if you are in charge after a hundred years, the glory of the Yuan clan will definitely be able to go further in the future. If the lord has a bad eye and chooses any of your three brothers, he won't dare to say the consequences! ”

Listening to the meaning of Tian Feng and Koji Yi, because he commanded this battle, he admired himself very much, and if he didn't take this opportunity to win them over, when would he stay?

Yuan Mai lifted his cloak and bowed deeply to Tian Feng and Lu Yi: "Mr. Yuanhao, General Shutong." I also have great ambitions in my heart, and I am also eager to do a career and glorify the lintel of my Yuan family. Leading Hebei heroes, Yingchuan celebrities have achieved the cause of kings and tyrants, and they have left their names in history. But I was born as a concubine, and I was rarely loved by my father, and I wasted 17 years of time, and I have not achieved an inch. At my father's birthday banquet, I didn't even have a place, and the two of them also saw ......"

Speaking of this, Yuan Mai was a little entangled in his heart. Thinking about the original scene is a little painful, if Zheng Yu hadn't stepped forward and invited himself to sit next to her, I'm afraid I wouldn't have where I am today. Therefore, if you can make a difference in this life, you must take good care of Zheng Yu's mother and daughter.

Listening to Yuan Mai's words, Tian Feng and Lu Yi both remembered the situation that day, and they were both embarrassed.

But I felt that it was inappropriate to scold Lao Tzu in front of my son, so I had to bow my head and slander in my heart, you Lao Tzu is a little capable and has a charisma; But he is too vain, too good-looking, too indecisive......

It's no surprise that he doesn't like your sick son. It's just that after this period of tempering, you are much stronger than before, as if you have changed people......

"It can only be said that Gongzi Ji people have their own celestial phenomena, and those who help themselves are helped! In response to Meng Shengren's words, the heavens will descend on the Si people, and they must first strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skin, empty their bodies, and act chaotically, so they are tempted to endure their surnames and gain what they cannot. Childe has emerged this time, and he said that he may be appreciated by the lord! In the future, it may be able to rise to the top, but it may not be possible to sway thousands of miles! Tian Feng finished slandering in his heart, and said something that seemed to be encouraging, but it was even more sycophant.

"Thank you, sir, for your words of encouragement, the boy will definitely remember it." Yuan Mai bowed to Tian Feng.

was not appreciated by the lord Yuan Shao, the same experience, so that Li Yi had a good impression of Yuan Mai, not to mention that Yuan Mai had saved his surname, which made the unruly Lu Yi secretly think in his heart: "This guy is okay, has means, is ruthless, has strategy, can bend and stretch, seems to be a person who can achieve great things, as long as he is not too mean to me, unlike his Lao Tzu, I have always felt that I am not as good as Yan Liang and Wen Chou, I am willing to help him achieve a hegemony!" ”

"But the three brothers have been leading the army for many years, holding great power, and are assisted by people such as Ju Pei, Feng Ji, Guo Tu, Xin Ping, etc., I'm afraid I can't compete with them, right?" Yuan Mai seemed frustrated, but in fact he used a radical strategy.

Koji Yi really couldn't help it, and snorted contemptuously: "Judgment matching, Feng Ji and the like are eggs?" When I was in charge of the army in Yecheng, they were still a dog-headed military division under Han Fu, and with me here, there is no need to take them seriously! Our current situation has been reversed, and we have now 15,600 people after 2,000 people in Tianchou and more than 3,000 people in Zhengu. If you can unite Yan Rou, Liu He and others in the north of Daijun to jointly attack Daijun, maybe you can really take it. Daijun is in hand, as a foothold, and strengthen your strength, you don't have to be afraid of your three brothers anymore, and look up to their snorts! ”

Tian Feng is a literati, and his speech will not be as explicit as Ko Yi's, such a blatant gang, and said cryptically: "Although the prince obeys the orders of the lord, I believe that the lord will see everything you do." Who will inherit the great cause in the future, the lord will inevitably have an explanation, if the trial and Guo Tu have selfish intentions, General Feng and Koji will not sit idly by! ”

Yuan Mai bowed again to the two future right-hand men: "In this case, I hope that Mr. Yuan Hao and General Shutong will carry out more in the future, and from now on, I will buy and share the two of them with the same breath and share honor and disgrace!" ”

At noon, the brothers Lü Kuang and Lü Xiang brought a team of men and horses to meet Yuan Mai, Liyi and others, and they were able to occupy the "Fu Caliber" and open up this choke point connecting Bingzhou and Jizhou, which was a great achievement. In the future, it will greatly facilitate business and military activities between the two states, and there will be no need to take long detours. The Lu brothers have already sent a partial general to lead 2,000 people to rebuild the defense facilities and firmly control this moat in the hands of officers and soldiers.

Yuan bought people to buy wine and food, and entertained the Lu brothers. After they were full of wine and food, the two brothers got on their horses together to say goodbye, and said goodbye: "Although the prince of Mai is with Mr. Yuan Hao and General Koji to conquer Dai County in the north, when you return to the lord, my two brothers will definitely show you for your strange plot to seize the valley." ”

Sure enough, eating other people's mouths, the Lu brothers returned to Yecheng and praised Yuan Shao in front of him. Yuan Shao's happy heart bloomed, and he stroked his beard and smiled: "This son will not fall into the prestige of my Yuan family, and I am finally at ease." ”

The Northern Expeditionary Army said that the camp went north, walked for three or five days, and just entered the territory of Taiyuan County, when they received Yuan Shao's fast horse document, in which Yuan Mai was greatly praised and praised. He was crowned as "General Fenwu", this position is equivalent to the chief army of all walks of life, with the right to inspect all walks of life, and generals below the rank of lieutenant have the right to cut first and then play.

Unconsciously, Yuan Mai's promotion speed has set a record for the staff under Yuan Shao. But Lao Tzu was happy and willing to promote his son, and besides, his son also made many meritorious contributions, but no one dared to oppose it. As a result, after years of suppression, Yuan Mai jumped to the position of "General Fenwu" at a soaring speed.
