After the defeat and retreat of Gongsun Zhan, he withdrew from the Qinghe State of Jizhou, returned to Bohai County, reorganized the soldiers and horses, and the six hundred people of Bai Ma Yi except Zhao Yun were all wiped out, and the remaining 8,000 cavalry also lost more than 5,000 and 6,000 infantry killed and wounded, which can be described as a heavy loss in this battle.

Gongsun Zhan regretted in the Bohai County Mansion: "Yuan Shao'er is really hateful!" Ay! I regret not listening to Zilong's words, if according to Zilong's plan, the infantry rushes forward and the cavalry shoots from a distance, then the small shield array is not a concern. ”

He also figured out afterwards that he lost this battle in the cavalry assault shield formation, fought at close range, and lost the greatest advantage of cavalry archery, causing the cavalry to collapse, which in turn led to a major defeat.

Gongsun Zhan looked at Gongsun Fan, Gongsun Xu, Guan Jing and other cronies, and said slowly: "Do you think Zhao Yun can be commended?" ”

Gongsun Fan and the others were silent, this battle was defeated, if they only praised Zhao Yun, the son of Jizhou, how could they hold their heads up in front of Zhao Yun in the future?

Guan Jing's eyes rolled, and he hurriedly said: "Jihou, Zhao Yunyi is a yellow-mouthed son, what he said before was just speculation, but he really invited people to buy people's hearts, and now that the white horse has lost, if Zhao Yun is praised, I am afraid that the prestige of the lord in the army will be greatly reduced..."

Gongsun Zhan's face changed when he heard this, and he was silent.

……

Taiyuan County, Jinyang County, Taishou Mansion.

Zhang Yang sat on the seat dejectedly, his eyes blank, as if he had aged ten years all of a sudden.

At this time, Zhang Liao, who was dressed in military uniform, strode in, Zhang Yang hurriedly got up, bowed to Zhang Liao, and shouted a little uneasily: "Wenyuan...... General Zhang. ”

Zhang Liao hurriedly helped Zhang Yang up: "Uncle Zhi, my brother, why is this so." Don't do that. "Zhang Yang is older and has a benevolent personality. When he was merging the state, he took care of the young Zhang Liao, so Zhang Liao respected Zhang Yang very much.

Zhang Yang cried and said with a sad face: "My majesty is not strict. How can the Lord not be guilty of the rebellion of his tribes and fall into the hands of his enemies? Wen Yuan should escort me to Hedong. ”

Zhang Liao said in a deep voice: "Uncle Zhi has the fault of not being strict with His Majesty, but when it is too late to discuss the crime, the younger brother has already arrested the person who made the rebellion." After saying that, Zhang Liao turned his head and shouted: "Bring Yang Chou in!" ”

The two guards opened the door and brought in a black-faced thin man with a roe head and rat eyes, but it was Zhang Yang's military Sima Yang Chou. It is also the culprit who held Zhang Yang hostage in this rebellion.

As soon as Yang Chou saw Zhang Yang, he knelt down and cried: "The general spares his life." ”

Zhang Yang suddenly burst into tears, and also cried: "Yang Chou, I usually treat you well, why do you make trouble?" What's the mess? ”

Yang Chou hurriedly said: "General, my subordinates are confused for a while, and they have been deceived by others, so please spare the general!" ”

Zhang Yang hesitated: "This ...... Don't do it again next time. ”

Zhang Liao said sharply on the side: "Come on, drag the traitor Yang Chou out and cut it down!" ”

"Spare your life! Spare your life! Yang Chou howled miserably and was pulled out.

Zhang Yang's face was a little sad. muttered: "He's just confused for a while, why is Wen Yuan ...... like this"

Zhang Liao snorted coldly: "Plotting rebellion, kidnapping the general, and Uncle Zongzhi doesn't ask about his crimes." This person will not escape the Lord's accountability! ”

Zhang Yang was silent.

……

At the same time, in a house hall in Yangqu County.

Yuan Ji sat there with a depressed face, and he had no intention of reading the books in his hands. I listened to Hu Tong on the other side talking, but I didn't want to listen to what he said. Now his mind has long been scattered.

"Envoy, don't hesitate any longer. Hanoi has already taken most of it, Hedong is at war with Dong Zhuo, and the Xiongnu are ready to do it again..."

Yuan Ji interrupted him and said, "Are you waiting for the assassination of the Lord to fail?" ”

"......" Hu Tong was silent and could only reply: "Yes." ”

"Sixteen counties in Taiyuan, Zhang Wenyuan has captured thirteen, and Zhang Yang's old department has been recruited?"

“…… Be. Hu Tong said unwillingly: "Zhang Liao'er was born in the state and worked as a county official in Yanmen, but he didn't know any ability, and he didn't want to be so good at fighting." ”

"The Xiongnu diverted to Changshan, were attacked halfway, and the whole army was wiped out?"

“…… Be. Hu Tong gritted his teeth and said: "Shangdang Xunyou has already taken refuge in King Hongnong, why didn't you say it before?" ”

Yuan Ji sneered: "Don't you boast that you are in control of everything? I thought you would know everything by the time you could. ”

Hu Tong was choked all of a sudden, his face turned red, and then he was annoyed and said angrily: "Yuan Ji, don't talk coldly, you are now one with me, do you think you still have a way to retreat?" We only need to rumor that you instigated everyone in Taiyuan to make trouble, and King Hongnong will break your body into pieces! ”

Yuan Ji said expressionlessly: "Didn't you wait for the first time to boast that you were helping the community and saving the peril?" Now I know it's a mess! ”

"Humph! I have let Zhang Yang go back, and see how King Hongnong is located, if Zhang Yang is killed, he will lose the hope of the state, and then there will be a winner! ”

Yuan Ji sneered: "Put it back? I'm afraid that I was rescued by Zhang Wenyuan, you have no choice but to push the boat down the river. ”

Hu Tong's face changed continuously, obviously because Yuan Ji said that he was in the sore spot, snorted angrily, threw his sleeves and left.

"The face of the villain." Yuan Ji was tired in his heart, when he first arrived in Taiyuan to take up his post, this Hu Tong stammered in every way, and he was also blind, and he was recruited to work for Gongcao, and he has always been respectful to himself, and he didn't want to control himself, and after bringing himself to such a point, he was arrogant and didn't take himself in his eyes at all.

What a villain!

Immediately, Yuan Ji thought of himself, and suddenly he was weak, and the lord appointed him as the county guard, didn't he also have two hearts? Isn't it also a villain's act?

As for the threatening words that Hu Tong said, Yuan Ji didn't care, if the Lord was so easily deceived, he would not have achieved what he is today.

Yuan Ji knows very well that what the Lord is best at is to perceive people's hearts, Hu Tong spread those news, how can he deceive the Lord, whether he is alive or dead, it only depends on the mood of the Lord.

As for these behind-the-scenes families, now that the assassination of the Lord fails, they will inevitably be hit madly, and other families are likely to be implicated, you know, the Lord lacks a justifiable reason to deal with the family. How long can Hu Tong and others jump!

Yuan Ji's face showed hatred, and when he saw the people who came in to deliver food, his eyes flickered.

……

Guanzhong, Chang'an, Beique Jiadi. Cai Fu.

Ji Ping arranged the matter and sent Zhu Ao away. Let him do it as soon as possible. Zhu Ao was still not at ease, and secretly arranged some Shadow Divisions to protect Ji Ping around Cai's Mansion.

And Ji Ping spent the next two days recuperating in Caifu. Listening to Cai Yan play the piano and write calligraphy every day, I am also at ease.

Ji Ping didn't know how to play the piano, but the few tunes he inadvertently hummed surprised Cai Yan who heard it, and he hummed it several times, and then wrote the score against it.

If Cai Yan is noncommittal about Ji Ping's piano skills, then she is amazed by Ji Ping's calligraphy.

You must know that Ji Ping liked calligraphy in his previous life, and he had a certain level, and in this life. The three things that must be studied every day are reading, practicing martial arts, and calligraphy. Reading widely known, practicing martial arts to strengthen the body, calligraphy cultivation, and now his calligraphy can be said to be in the house.

The only thing that annoyed Ji Ping was that Dong Huang had to come over every day to pester Cai Yan, and it was understandable that my fair lady and gentleman were good, but this guy always wanted to show his superiority and contempt in front of Ji Ping, but Ji Ping was extremely disgusted.

And although Cai's house is good, there are many miscellaneous people, so it is not suitable to do some planning. And once something happens, it will affect Cai Yong's family. Therefore, Ji Ping has asked Zhu Ao to find a residence nearby as a base for the next few months.

In the early morning of this day, Ji Ping washed his face, took a spear and was gesturing in the yard. Cai Yan walked over in slight steps.

Ji Ping thought that she was going to compose music and write again, but Cai Yan said with a strange expression: "Changsheng, Ah Weng plans to find you an errand under Dong Zhuo." ”

Yes? Ji Ping shook the spear in his hand. lost his voice and said: "Go to Dong Zhuo's subordinates on an errand, this is not a meat steamed bun to beat a dog." There's no going back! ”

Poof! Cai Yan chuckled lightly and couldn't help but sneer: "Meat steamed buns...... Do you describe yourself like that? He added: "Cai Yan pushed this matter for you." If you go to Dong Zhuo's errand boy, it will be ridiculous and bad for the world. ”

"If you are not afraid that Dong Zhuo will recognize it, the risk is too great, and it is nothing to go to his subordinates on an errand, you have to stab a spear in the air and send that guy back to the west." When Ji Ping said this, he touched his nose and changed the subject: "Won't you go to play the piano and write again?" ”

Cai Yan chuckled: "You practice martial arts first, you don't have to play the piano today, write a few words later, and let Cai Yan have a good look." ”

Ji Ping shook his head helplessly, Cai Yan's obsession with piano music completely changed his light style, which made him really unbearable.

Ji Ping's practice is not a showmanship, but a battlefield fighting move, full of murderous spirit, with Cai Yan, who is knowledgeable and reasonable, by his side, he is not good at practicing anymore, so he said: "Okay, while Dong flies haven't come to buzz yet, go write a few words first." ”

Cai Yan couldn't help but smile and said, "Dong Fly, this is a good name." ”

When I arrived at the courtyard over there, Lu Qi had already set up the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the stone platform in the pavilion, and was studying the ink, and a maid brought a basin of water, so that Ji Ping could wash off the sweat in his hands and dry his hands.

Ji Ping gently moved his wrist to soothe it, and Lu Qi looked at him while studying the ink, and suddenly asked curiously: "Liu Gongzi, is what you said in Anju that day true?" ”

Ji Ping was stunned: "What words?" ”

Lu Qi imitated what Ji Ping said in Anju that night, and said viciously: "Whether you Dong Youyi or this Anju, you will be turned into ashes in the fire." ”

She imitated it vividly, which made Ji Ping laugh.

On the side, Cai Yan glanced at Lu Qi: "That's scary." ”

Lu Qi breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "The servant knows that Liu Gongzi is joking." ”

Ji Ping shook his head and said seriously: "I never lie, if they didn't recruit that night, Anju would have turned into a pile of ashes." ”

Yes? Lu Qi's hand shook, her face was pale, and even Cai Yan was a little stunned.

But I heard Ji Ping continue: "Didn't there be a sign on the door of Anjuli, with the word 'Anju' written on it, I originally wanted to say that I would burn this thing to ashes, and I didn't want An Youzhi to be scared like that." ”

When Cai Yan and Lu Qi heard him say this, they couldn't help laughing so much that tears came out.

Ji Ping saw that Lu Qi had already finished the ink, smiled, lifted the pen, and happened to see Cai Yan placing the Jiao Weiqin on the side, thought about it, and wrote a seven-character poem that had not yet appeared in this era.

After writing in one breath, Ji Ping put away the pen, and Cai Yan on the side read softly:

Jin Se has fifty strings for no reason, one string and one pillar to think about the years.

Zhuang Shengxiao dreams of butterflies, and hopes that the emperor will trust the cuckoo in spring.

There are tears in the pearl of the sea and the moon, and the blue field is warm and the jade is smoking.

This situation can be recalled, but it was already lost at the time......

Looking at Cai Yan's misty expression, Ji Ping smiled, and was about to put down his pen, when a bold voice suddenly came from outside the courtyard: "Cai Zhonglang is there?" Lu Bu visited. ”

Ji Ping's hand shook, and a bit of ink fell on the paper. (To be continued.) )
