Eleventh

Since then, after Qiao Ren was carried back to the mansion by the sergeant, Sun Ce was counted down by Da Qiao several times. However, Qiao Ren was fine, but he suddenly relaxed after being nervous, and fell off the horse under the loss of spirit, fortunately, the horse that Qiao Ren was riding was a pony, and he was very close to Qiao Ren. Qiao Ren bent his leg when he fell, so Qiao Ren was not injured, and he returned home and lay down for half an hour.

Sun Ce also learned from the mouth of the only remaining assassin that they were Xu Gong's disciples, and according to Sun Ce's surname, he should have slaughtered those evil intentions of the wealthy families and the remnants of Xu Gong, but in the persuasion of Zhang Zhao and others, he changed to a policy of Huai Rou. For a time, the land of Jiangdong was called the virtue of Sun Lang. After that, Sun Ce also strengthened his defense, and rarely went out hunting anymore, but it made Da Qiao and Qiao Ren happy.

Jian'an five years, April 20. In the past few days, Qiao Ren still goes to Gu Mansion to study and Sun Mansion to practice martial arts, and he can't be cut off. On this day, Qiao Ren took Qiao Xinran to the Gu Mansion study at the usual time. saw that Gu Yong was not reading as usual, but in front of a map of the Han Dynasty, looking non-stop.

"Ren'er, I've seen the teacher." Although Qiao Ren was curious, he did not slow down the number of courtesies at all.

"The virtuous nephew is here." After finishing speaking, he put his hands behind his back, and after Qiao Ren took his seat, he said to Qiao Ren: "Today, if you are a teacher, you will not wait for a lecture." Instead, I will talk to you about the situation in the Central Plains, and I can speak freely without being formal. ”

"I don't know what the situation is?" Arguments? Qiao Ren thought of it

Gu Yong cleared his throat slightly and said, "Hebei Yuan Shao issued a message in the first month of this year. Defeat Cao Ying. "Glancing at the map, he stretched out his right hand and pointed to it." At the beginning of this month, Cao Ying then sent light cavalry to quickly attack the Yuan army attacking Baima, forcing the Yuan army to divide into Yanjin. Cao Ying approached Baima with Guan Yu and Zhang Liao as the vanguard. Guan Yu even fought against Yan Liang, the general of the Yuan army, in front of the army. After that, Yuan Jun Wen Chou and Liu Bei led the army to pursue Cao Jun, but they were ambushed by Cao Jun, Wen Chou was killed by Xu Huang, and Liu Bei's whereabouts are unknown. Now, Cao Ying retreated to Guandu and Yuan Shao, across the river. ”

After finishing speaking, Gu Yong deliberately left half an hour for Qiao Ren to digest the information. "Ziyan, in your opinion. What is the current situation? Should Cao Ying retire? ”

"Cao Jun will never retreat." Qiao Ren replied very resolutely.

Gu Yongqi said: "Oh, why? You must know that Yuan Benchu sat in the four states of Youji and Hebei, and tens of thousands of people with armor went south with the momentum of great victory. On the other hand, under the rule of Cao Mengde, Yanyu and Xu and other places in the Central Plains, after a long period of war, the population is sparse, and it is located in the land of four wars, and troops need to be stationed around it, but there are only 20,000 or 30,000 people. ”

Qiao Ren pointed to Guandu, "The art of war is cloudy, and the soldiers are noble but not expensive." Moreover, Cao Ying is weak and strong, and if he can't control it, he will suffer from it, so Cao Ying will not retreat and cannot retreat. Guy, he had no way back. If you fight, you will not necessarily lose, but if you don't fight, you will definitely lose. If Cao Ying guards the official crossing and waits for the time, he may not be unable to win. ”

"Reasonable." Gu Yong was very relieved when he heard this, but asked again, "Then, Yuan Shaoke will go south or retreat and repair, hold the power of the four continents, and suppress the enemy with momentum." ”

"It will go south. As the teacher said, the general sat on four continents, controlled tens of thousands of people, falsely claimed 300,000, and went south with the momentum of a great victory. Yuan Benchu was born in a wealthy family, and he was so happy. It will not be tolerable for Cao Ying to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes and give orders to him. Besides, Yuan Benchu had already sent a letter begging for thieves, and he would not return to Hebei. This is something that the House of the Fourth and Third Princes will not do. ”

"Good insight." This voice is not what Gu Yong said, there is a handsome young man outside the door, and his temperament is somewhat similar to Zhou Yu, but compared to Zhou Lang's heroism, this young man is a little more restrained. "Xun has seen his uncle, and his son is polite and ......"

The person who came was the next generation of Confucian handsome, and Lu Xun and Lu Boyan, the head of the Jiangdong Lu family today. Gu Yong's wife is Lu Ji's sister and Lu Junzhi's sister. And Lu Xun is the son of Lu Jun, so Gu Yong is Lu Xun's uncle, and the two families have been friends for generations, so he went straight into the study without telling Lu Xun, and sighed when he heard Qiao Ren's words. Lu Xun lost his father at an early age, and followed his grandfather Lu Kang to study in the governance office, and when Qiao Yu moved to Lujiang, Lu Xun was appointed by his grandfather Lu Kang as the Taishou of Lujiang, and Qiao Yu gave Lu Kang a gift to his son and nephew, and the two families also had frequent contacts. In the land of Lujiang, there is only one person who is famous for his studies, except for Lu Kang, Qiao Yu, when Lu Xun often comes to Qiao's house to visit, and Qiao Ren is also an old acquaintance.

"It turned out to be Bo Yan!"

"The younger brother has seen Brother Boyan." But it was Qiao Ren who got up and gave a salute to Lu Xun, although the Lu family had already moved to Wu County when he crossed over, but from his memory, he knew that Qiao Ren and this Lu Xun, who was four years older than him, had a deep friendship.

"Xun heard the words of the virtuous brother, and forgot himself for a while, rude, I hope to forgive me." Lu Xun was very polite and knew that it was wrong to interrupt others.

Gu Yong was dispensable, but Qiao Ren didn't dare to take it, "Brother, I'm outside." Brother, nonsense is not a high opinion. ”

"Bo Yan came just in time, when I call Shao'er, you three young talents, just talk about the general trend of the world." But Gu Yong really couldn't stand it, and Qiao Ren and Lu Xun had been humble to each other.

Putting aside, Gu Yong asked someone to call Gu Shao without saying anything. However, Qiao Ren looked at Lu Xun at this time, but thought in his heart, "Now, I am commensurate with Lu Xun's brother, and in the future, Lu Xun will marry Sun Ce, the daughter of the eldest brother-in-law, how should we call it?" Call me uncle? At this time, I remembered that it seemed that Gu Shao was already engaged to Sun Ce's eldest daughter. Although neither of them was born to Da Qiao, but now Da Qiao is the wife, and according to the etiquette, both of them want Da Qiao to be a mother. Ah, what a mess. ”

Instead of thinking about it here, let's take a look at Lu Xun's surname. Check the surname - Lu Xun:

Name: Lu Xun Zi Boyan

Domination: 72

Force: 45

Stratagem: 81

Interior: 74

Glamour: 78

Loyalty: None

Friendliness: 90

Evaluation: With a little experience, it is a talent that has passed through the heavens and latitudes.

Why is the surname so low, but it's just second-rate. Come to think of it, Lu Xun is only eighteen years old now, although he has already managed family affairs, but he has insufficient experience, and it can be said that he is talented to have such a surname, after all, there is no natural general.

"Shao visited his father, met Brother Boyan, and Brother Ziyan." But Gu Shao was already here. Gu Shao is now exactly sixteen, and he is famous in the land of Jiangdong, and he is the leader of the younger generation of talents in Jiangdong with Lu Xun's uncle Lu Ji. As for Lu Xun and our Qiao Ren, they are both slightly inferior.

Sure enough, there is no vanity under the fame. After some conversation, it is not difficult to see that although Gu Shaozhicai is not as whimsical and creative as Lu Xun and Qiao Ren, he is more down-to-earth. Therefore, it is not a lie to be a leader among the young talents in Jiangdong, after all, at this age, such whimsical ideas as Lu Xun and Qiao Ren are not so much ingenuity as rhetoric and talk on paper. In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, it is said that Lu Xun led the army as a scholar, which is a big fallacy. Thinking of him, Lu Boyan was born at the age of twenty-one, and has served as a captain, county commander, school captain, general Dingwei, and right governor, and has fought dozens of battles. It is comparable to a scholar who talks on paper.
