Chapter 553: A Safe Return

Youzhou, at this moment, the city gate that is facing the south is open, and the south city gate, which originally had countless people passing through, can no longer see any ordinary people passing by at this moment, but are standing at the city gate in groups, as if they are waiting for someone. There is no other reason, just because Guo Jia is coming back today.

As early as half a month ago, after Liu Yao sent 200,000 Tuntian soldiers to Na Sili, he has been paying close attention to the movements in the four directions of Xuzhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and Jingzhou.

Sure enough, just as Liu Yao and the others thought, the 200,000 troops obviously brought a lot of pressure to Cao Cao, and they hurriedly divided a large part of their troops back to Yanzhou and Yuzhou, afraid of what happened.

Although he knew that Liu Yao could not be sent in advance at this time, but he Cao Cao, who had always been cautious, still didn't dare to bet, in case that Liu Yao suddenly went crazy, then it was definitely their side that suffered.

Be careful to sail the 10,000-year-old ship, so he and Lu Bu still sent some troops back to help, so even if Liu Yao really called? They won't be crushed by a single blow, and they will have enough time to come to the rescue.

As for Guo Jia, who was still in Jingzhou, he had long been forgotten by them, and he originally thought it was a piece of fragrant bread, but now it has become a big hedgehog that is difficult to swallow, no matter who it is, it will not be happy.

But it is precisely because of this that he Guo Jia walked slowly along the way, but he did not encounter half a point of danger.

And at this moment, in front of the gate of the southern city, not only those curious people, but also Liu Yao's frustration and Shi A Huangxu, the two commanders of Liu Yao's personal guards, were also waiting again early. After all, this time Guo Jia took a big risk to go to work. He Liu Yao personally came out to welcome his return, and it was nothing.

As for the little emperor Liu Xie, forget it. He also wanted to follow Liu Yao to join in the fun, but he was directly rejected by him Liu Yao. After all, his identity is still there, and it is not necessary for the Son of Heaven to come out to greet him in person, of course, there is another point, that is, Liu Yao doesn't want him Liu Xie to participate in too many things, which can be regarded as a kind of protection for him.

I don't know how long I waited, but the frustrated professor on the side pointed to the distance and shouted softly, "Lord." They're back! ”

When Liu Yao heard this, he hurriedly looked up, only to see a thick cloud of smoke and dust rolling in the distance. In the dust raised, you can still vaguely see a big flag with the characters in the book, and the dazzling sunlight shines down, and it also reveals a dazzling light. It's a little hard to open your eyes. It wasn't the reflection of the armor of the assault battalion or anything, it was Guo Jia and his party.

With Liu Yao's eyesight, he saw Guo Jia's figure at a glance, and when he saw his safe and sound appearance, he was also relieved.

However, after he saw a few people around Guo Jia, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and then there was a trace of excitement on his face waiting for me to smile.

Not counting those assault battalions, there were nearly 800 strong men behind him, although they didn't wear any armor. But the murderous aura on their faces clearly tells that they are also an elite soldier.

Except for these people. There are still four people around him Guo Jia, so Zhao Yun won't talk about it, he Liu Yao is familiar with it. But in addition to this Zhao Yun, there were three people on the side, a red-faced man holding a big knife, and the other was also a big man, holding a spear, but he looked a little white-faced.

However, with Liu Yao's eyes, it can be seen at a glance that these two people are definitely great generals, and before joining forces with this Guo Jia to go to Jingzhou, he explained to him, and Liu Yao immediately guessed who these two people were.

The red-faced one should be that Wei Yan, as for the white-faced one, it is thought to be the Jinfan thief Gan Ning, and the eight hundred people behind the stormtroop camp are the ticket brothers before Gan Ning, the Jinfan thief.

At the beginning, he Liu Yao said that it was just that, if he could win over these two people, it would naturally be the best, of course, if he couldn't win over, it wouldn't hurt, after all, there are now fierce generals around him, and there is no longer the desire for those fierce generals at that time, one less is not less, and one more is the best.

As for the last person, it was obvious that it was a young man, who looked thirteen or fourteen years old, but it made Liu Yao a little depressed, he really couldn't guess who this young man would be for a while, and how could he be brought back by him Guo Jia.

"Let's go!" Liu Yao shouted happily, and then led a few people to stride towards Guo Jia.

And when Guo Jia and his entourage saw Liu Yao personally greeting him, they also hurriedly leaned over, and the five people in front of them immediately turned over and dismounted and walked towards Liu Yao.

"Guo Jia (Zhao Yun) has seen the lord!" The two hurriedly saluted Liu Yao.

"No need to be polite!" Liu Yao waved his hand and said nonchalantly, then his eyes fell on Na Gan Ning and Wei Yan, and looked at them carefully.

Around that Gan Ning and Wei Yan can be regarded as the masters of a hundred battles, but being looked at by Liu Yao with such scrutinizing eyes, they were also a little nervous, and hurriedly followed the example of Guo Jia and the others, and saluted Liu Yao and said, "The last general, Gan Ning (Wei Yan), see the lord." ”

Liu Yao didn't speak, just nodded slightly, and then continued to look at the two of them, until the two of them were cold, their hands trembled slightly, and a few drops of cold sweat were left on their faces.

After all, the two of them are also newcomers, although they have already obtained Guo Jia's consent to live in Youzhou, but that is only Guo Jia's consent, and now they don't have Liu Yao in front of them, who can't grab the master, if he doesn't agree, then what the two of them did before will not be in vain, this is why they don't worry.

Guo Jia saw such a scene, it was also a little funny, how could he Liu Yao be dissatisfied with the two of them, you must know that if he Liu Yao hadn't mentioned these two names, the two of them are probably still living in obscurity in Jingzhou now.

However, he can also guess Liu Yao's thoughts, and people with ability will inevitably be arrogant, especially this Gan Ning, so he Liu Yao wants to knock and knock well, and it will not be good if something happens in the future.

"Lord, this Gan Ning and Wei Yan are both talented generals, and they are worth using." Guo Jia didn't debunk it, but said sternly.

Immediately, the two looked at Liu Yao nervously, waiting for his reply.

Liu Yao nodded and said, "Since you have said so in Fengxiao, then the two of you should follow Zilong first and act as his lieutenant, and if you make meritorious service in the future, you will be rewarded." ”

"Thank you, my lord!" The two exclaimed gratefully. Liu Yao's words, that means that he recognizes himself. And with Zhao Yunming, although he is a deputy general, it is much better than before in Jingzhou.

Liu Yao nodded, didn't speak, casually glanced at the young man on the side, and immediately felt a shock in his heart, and said secretly, "It's him!" (To be continued......)
