309 Alone in the world is a fine ride
Guo Jia saw that Xi Zhicai asked so solemnly, but he was slightly stunned, that is, he said to him solemnly: "Coincidentally, my brother also has an inquiry, and Brother Wanwang Zhicai told him frankly." β
The expressions of the two are the same, with solemn looks on their faces, but between their eyes, there is a hint of cunning, and the words used are slightly different, one is to ask Guo Jia to tell the truth, and the other is to tell the truth to Xi Zhicai.
Xi Zhicai nodded and responded: "Okay, since that's the case, brother is welcome, if Cao Mengde is defeated by Yuan Shao, Fengxiao will persuade Cao Mengde where to go?" β
Guo Jia didn't answer, but shook his head vigorously there, and Xi Zhicai also laughed and asked, "What's the matter, what Brother Feng Xiaoxian wants to ask is also this?" β
"Exactly," Guo Jia nodded again and again, smiling uncontrollably, "I'm afraid that even the answer is no different from Brother Zhicai." β
After speaking, Guo Jia put away the smile on his face, looked at Xi Zhicai, and said slowly: "Brother Zhicai will persuade Liu Xuande where to go, and the younger brother will also persuade the lord where to go." β
Xi Zhicai also had a solemn face, nodded and responded: "Well, Feng Xiao is really a refreshing person, even so, brother understands." Let's go, we haven't seen each other for a few years, why don't we have a few drinks and talk while drinking? β
"Just what I want!"
Guo Jia showed joy and got up and replied.
It's just that now, as two people, they can't walk to the streets and alleys at will, find a favorite wine shop at will, pick a private seat by the window at will, order exquisite snacks at will, two jars of wine, and chat while drinking at will.
As soon as the two of them stepped out of the door, they would immediately follow a group of attendants and guards, wanting to go to the streets and alleys to find a wine shop to drink two glasses of wine, but before anyone arrived, the entire wine shop had already been cleared by the guards in advance.
Therefore, they had no intention of going out, but were instructed by Guo Jia. After a short time, a maid immediately brought snacks and wine, put the table for the two of them, poured the wine, that is, a blessing, Ying Ying smiled, and withdrew with interest.
In a few words, the two of them had finished talking about business, and now they had a drink and gossip, as far as they were concerned. But it's a rare sense of leisure.
Compared with the leisurely of the two of them, Shi Tao and Wei Ji, who went to Chang'an, although they were accompanied by their old acquaintance Xu Shu, were not as comfortable as Xi Zhicai and Guo Jia.
Shi Tao was long before Xu Shu entered Yingchuan Academy. has been friends with him, and Xu Shu left Yingchuan Academy. When preparing to go north to Taiyuan to have a look. Shi Tao tried his best to persuade him to go to the plains, of course, the intention was to recruit talents for Liu Bei, the lord of the plains at the time.
Wei Ji studied at Yingchuan Academy with Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai, and when they went north to Yecheng together, they never thought that Yuan Shao would ignore them at all, and met Lu Bu and the black mountain thief Zhang Yan and Jizhou Mu Hanfu's old department to break through Yecheng, so they partnered with Xun Yu. Disappointed and returned to the south, in the end, Guo Jia was even appreciated by Cao Cao, the Taishou of Dongjun, and Wei Ji and several people also joined Cao Cao's account to serve, and only Xi Zhi left. In the end, he was put into the account of Liu Bei, who was too protective of the plain.
The personal relationship between Wei Ji and Xu Shu is not bad, of course, it is not as familiar as the relationship between Shi Tao and Xu Shu.
This time, the situation in the eastern part of the country was turbulent because of Yuan Shao, and Cao Cao and Liu Bei almost invariably sent Wei Ji and Shi Tao to Chang'an, and then the two went to Taiyuan and Wuyuan, in order to meet Lu Bu.
The two of them had just arrived, and it happened that Lu Bu was preparing to fight with the Xianbei Iron Cavalry, so they had never seen Lu Bu.
In fact, Xu Shu has always been worried, so he is not in the mood to drink with them, but tonight is different, outside the city of Wuyuan, the lord Lu Bu has defeated Tuoba Xianbei Iron Cavalry 13,000, the battle of Wuyuan has been settled, and the rest is just to harvest the fruits of victory.
Therefore, Xu Shu reversed his worries some time ago, was in a good mood, and frequently toasted Shi Tao and Wei Ji, and his words were very humorous.
Shi Tao has long known that Xu Shu is an open-minded person, and when he was a teenager, he used to fencing Ren Xia and was uninhibited, but today when he saw Xu Shu in such a good mood, he was still secretly surprised in his heart, and couldn't help asking: "Yuan Zhi has a great joy in his body?"
Xu Shu laughed, couldn't hide his smug face, and nodded frequently: "Exactly, exactly, Brother Guangyuan, Brother Wei, the two came from afar, the lord has not yet met the two, it is not that he intends to be lazy, but in fact, he is busy with the decisive battle Tuoba Xianbei Iron Cavalry, and he lacks skills." β
After speaking, Xu Shu deliberately paused for a moment, and in the expectant eyes of Shi Tao and Wei Ji, he said casually: "Today, the lord led 8,000 elite cavalry, and Tuoba Xianbei Marshal, deduced the battle of more than 10,000 iron cavalry led by Tuoba Lin, killed Tuoba neighbors under the horse, defeated Tuoba Xianbei Iron Cavalry, and now is chasing and killing Tuoba Xianbei Iron Cavalry overnight."
As soon as he finished speaking, the expressions on Shi Tao and Wei Ji's faces were frozen at that moment.
Xu Shu didn't need to ask to know what Shi Tao and Wei Ji were feeling in their hearts at this time, because of what the lord Lu Bu did today, even he felt very incredible, not to mention the messengers sent by Liu Bei and Cao Cao.
For a long time, everyone has recognized that Xianbei Iron Cavalry can dominate the prairie, and it is more fierce and elite than Han Cavalry, but in today's battle, from Xu Shu's words, Shi Tao and Wei Ji can easily hear that Lu Bu is a fine cavalry against an iron cavalry, and less wins more.
Just, how is this possible.
In Shi Tao and Wei Ji's hearts, the extreme shock had not disappeared, and a strong sense of jealousy rose, followed by strong doubts, if it was not Xu Shu who spoke, and it was not Xu Shu that they were all familiar with, they would definitely believe that Xu Shu was telling big words and lies.
Immediately afterward, the two of them became worried again. Not for themselves, but for the two of them, Liu Bei and Cao Cao.
As long as they think about it a little, they know very well that after the great victory in this battle, LΓΌ Bu subdued the Wuyuan and Shuofang counties in the Hetao region, just a few months ago, and then, and merged the prefectures, Guanzhong, and Xiliang, that is, the membership of the Hetao area and the Southern Xiongnu garrison pastureland, connected together, so that at the latest, one or two years later, a few months later, the army under Lu Bu will re-select the direction of the attack, but this time, there are only four directions, including Hanzhong and Xishu, Nanyang and Jingzhou, Heluo and Guandong, Youzhou and Jizhou.
And the most likely direction, I'm afraid is Heluo and Kanto, here, Liu Bei and Cao Cao are in the right place.
After being silent for a long time, Shi Tao still held a hint of luck and asked: "All along, the Xianbei Iron Cavalry has boasted of being invincible in the world, and the previous Che Cavalry General defeated Bu Dugen, Fu Luo Han, and Kui Head, all with the help of a strong bow and crossbow.
Xu Shu heard a little doubt, jealousy, and disbelief from Shi Tao's words, and replied with a smile: "Brother Guangyuan and Brother Wei are not outsiders, and Shu will tell the truth, the lord is brave under the account, and it is not a problem to be brave, it can be said that the world is invincible, even the lord does not dare to boast, this time the lord personally led the generals under his account, charged into battle, pierced the Xianbei iron cavalry formation in a battle, and killed Tuoba neighbors, no matter how brave the Xianbei iron cavalry is, it can only be deserted and escape." β
Shi Tao was speechless, Wei Ji was the same, because of Xu Shu's words, it seemed to be modest, but the words in and out of the words were all confirming what Shi Tao asked, admitting that Lu Bu was riding under his tent, and he was already alone in the world.
In particular, Shi Tao and Wei Ji have to be reused by their respective dukes, the flying army under the account of Liu Bei, the lord of Shi Tao, led by the third general Zhang Fei, and the tiger and leopard cavalry led by Xiahoudun under the account of Cao Cao, the lord of Wei Ji, have been working hard for several years, and now they are worth three thousand, and even the recruits are counted, not all the elite soldiers who have experienced the tempering of bloody battles.
Such a comparison, Shi Tao and Wei Ji are not a taste in their hearts, once upon a time, Lu Bu has been able to gather a total of 8,000 elite cavalry, and can also defeat more than 10,000 Xianbei iron cavalry, such an army, coupled with the rumored strong bow and crossbow, once the east out of the tiger prison that has become a ruin, who can resist the heroes of the Kwantung region?
The two of them tasted so much in their hearts, and immediately a bitterness surged into their hearts, even if they had thousands of words to ask, facing Xu Shu, who was so happy that he laughed heartily from time to time, he couldn't ask anything.
Xu Shu invited Shi Tao and Wei Ji to come, not completely to show off the victory of the lord Lu Bu, but also because before the lord Lu Bu defeated the Xianbei iron cavalry, he had been at ease, and he was not in the mood to catch up with Shi Tao and Wei Ji.
As soon as the conversation changed, Xu Shu raised his head and talked about the situation when he was studying in Yingchuan Academy before, and after a while, Shi Tao and Wei Ji also forgot about it for the time being, and the three of them talked and laughed, and the atmosphere gradually became warmer.
In the middle of the night, when Shi Tao and Wei Ji said goodbye to Xu Shu and returned to their residence, the first thing they did was to repair a book, send someone to leave Wuyuan overnight, and go back to report the news.
It's just that Wuyuan is here, but it's not Chang'an, or Taiyuan, people come in and out, without Xu Shu's approval, it can't be done, after Xu Shu got the letter, he knew what was going on, smiled indifferently, and waved his hand to let him go.
The situation in the world is changing with each passing day, and it is just a matter of suffering the messengers who shuttle back and forth from various places. At this time, the news of Lu Bu's defeat of the Xianbei Iron Cavalry had not yet reached Wuyuan, and he finally led the army back to the camp that had been set up.
The big camp is set up on the side of the battlefield, after defeating the Xianbei Iron Cavalry, Lu Bu and others led the army to chase and kill, it can be said that the elite cavalry is exhausted, this camp is still Xu Shu sent people out of the city to set up, thinking that after the elite cavalry chases and kills back, there is a place to stay, and at the same time, it is also the nearest place to start cleaning the battlefield.
Just settled down and sweating profusely, Lu Bu dragged his tired body, under the guidance of the guards, returned to the big tent of the Chinese army, and just opened the curtain of the tent, he heard everyone shouting in tired voices: "Lord, lord!" β
When I looked up, I saw that Xu Huang, Zhang Liao and others had already returned, but he became the last one to rush back.
Lu Bu couldn't help laughing, his voice was hoarse, and he sat on the ground, he was so tired that he didn't even want to say a word.
It wasn't until the guards moved to the table and put on the food and wine, Lu Bu was full of food and drink, that he looked up at everyone, nodded and smiled: "Okay, today's battle, all the kings have worked another day, I will personally lead the elite cavalry who walks alone in the world, Ding Ding Central Plains, drink horses and rivers, and work with all the kings to calm the world and benefit all the people!" (To be continued......)
