Out of the General's Mansion, Tian Fan directly found Zhu Yuan and other guards, and rushed out of the city together.

On the way, Tian Fan beckoned to Zhu Yuan and asked in a low voice, "Over there in Hedong, has there been any news recently?" ”

Zhu Yuan shook his head and said, "No! ”

Tian Fan frowned, and said dissatisfiedly: "Hedong has been occupied by Cao Heizi, and the Wei family has been wiped out, so you don't even know such important news?" Qianlong has so many people in Hedong, he can't even send such a message? What use do I want from you? ”

Tian Fan is really a little angry, this gang of cattle is so disappointing!

Zhu Yuan was taken aback, in his impression, Tian Fan had never been angry with his own people. He hurriedly clenched his fists and said, "Childe, it's our fault!" I'll go to Hexi and ask now! ”

Tian Fan was angry for a while, and he had already calmed down, after all, it was not Zhu Yuan's fault. He also figured it out, the people of Qianlong knew that he wanted to monitor the Wei family in order to investigate the matter of Shuang'er, but they thought that Tian Fan had always been obsessed with being kidnapped by her, and investigating her was to take revenge on her. Since there is no news coming from now, perhaps, it is good news.

Thinking about it, even if Anyi was taken by Xiahou Yuan, it would be impossible for him to slaughter the city. As long as they don't slaughter the city, even if they encounter an emergency, with the ability of the hidden dragon scouts, they can escape a few, and as long as they escape, they will have the ability to come back. If something happens to Frost, with their understanding of the importance of Frost, they will rush back desperately in less than ten days. Today is the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, even if the road is delayed for a day or two, I am afraid that they have already arrived in Xuzhou, and the news will come over. Now there is no news, which means that Frost is fine!

Shaking his head, Tian Fan said: "Forget it, since there is no news coming, it means that something is delayed!" After a slight pause, he continued: "Go back and check it out and see what is going on." ”

Zhu Yuan nodded and did not speak again.

Tian Fan looked at the sky and remembered that Yu Ji had gone to Lu Bu's house, so he ordered the group to turn around and go to Lu Bu's house.

On the way, Zhu Yuan suddenly exclaimed and said, "I remembered!" ”

Tian Fan was stunned for a moment, and said strangely: "What do you remember?" ”

Zhu Yuan said: "Childe, a few days ago, a few carrier pigeons suddenly ran back from Hexi. The pigeon's legs were empty, and there was no news. At the time, we felt very strange, but now it seems that it is likely to have flown from the east of the river! ”

Tian Fan couldn't help but be stunned, yes, it's very possible! In this case, that is to say, there was an emergency on Anyi's side, and the people of Qianlong did not have time to write a message, so they directly released a few empty pigeons.

Thinking about it, Tian Fan couldn't help but be surprised, what kind of situation could make the elites of the hidden dragon frightened to such an extent? And there is no follow-up information, which means that they have suffered a catastrophe and may have been wiped out!

He hurriedly said: "Zhu Yuan, you go to He Xi immediately, and ask him to inquire about the stronghold near Anyi, the Qianlong substation in Anyi, what happened!" ”

Zhu Yuan couldn't help but have a difficult face, and said: "Childe, the Qianlong branch outside is not a unified subordinate, but each state has a headquarters. However, Anyi is more special, because it is more important to monitor the movements of the Wei family, so it is directly responsible for Xuzhou......"

Tian Fan knew what he meant, he was afraid that the Qianlong branch in other places would know the existence of the Anyi branch, and if the branches between the levels knew about each other's existence, it was likely that after a branch station was exposed, it would cause a chain reaction.

Tian Fan glanced at him and said, "Are you stupid or what's wrong?" Such a big thing happened in Anyi, don't you just ignore it? Moreover, the Wei family has been wiped out, and their task is considered to have been completed, if they are fine, they will be reassigned after they come back, what are they afraid of? ”

When Zhu Yuan heard this, he couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded, puffed for a long time, and walked away with his fists clenched.

Lu Bu is in a good mood today!

Because Yu Ji said that before the end of this year, his wife Yan's illness will be cured! This is definitely good news for Lu Bu and Yan, who are deeply in love with the couple.

It's not that Siyu's medical skills are much worse than Yu Ji, but after all, she is young and has seen fewer cases, which can't be compared with a century-old monster like Yu Ji. Yu Ji naturally knows this, besides, Siyu's early work is very good, which is very beneficial to Yan's later treatment. Even without him, Yan's illness would have been cured, and it would take another half a year at most.

When Lu Bu is in a good mood, he will choose to drink, so Yu Ji is tragic. When Tian Fan came over without dying, he was also tragic!

Tian Fan prevaricated on the grounds of asking the Yan family for peace, and Lu Bu spared him.

After a while, Yan and Diao Chan came out together, and Diao Chan was still holding Lu Rong, a little girl who was a little more than a year old, in her arms. The girl is getting more and more cute, a pair of big black eyes are curious to look at the people or scenery around her, the little tongue is half exposed to her lips, squirming a few times from time to time, and from time to time she makes a few meaningless babblings.

Seeing Tian Fan looking behind them with a ghostly head, Yan couldn't help but chuckle and quipped: "Boguang, Xin'er will marry you in March, you don't have to worry!" ”

Diao Chan also pursed his lips and smiled, and said: "It's really the same, like every three autumns?" ”

Tian Fan blushed for a while, and smirked a few times.

To be honest, he really wants to meet the girl, he hasn't seen her for more than a month, and he kind of thinks about it. It's a pity, I don't know if the girl is crazy, or if the Yan family is strict, I didn't see it today. He couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

Saying goodbye to Yan's family, Lu Bu, and Diao Chan, and hugging his future sister-in-law, Tian Fan led Yu Ji, who was already drunk, home.

There are too many things going on today, if there is nothing to do, he can accompany his future father-in-law and friend Lu Bu to have a good drink. On the way, he remembered that it seemed that Ma Jun's matter had not been mentioned to Liu Bei. Hey, it's a mistake to drink!

In the evening, after rushing home, I first went to my parents to say goodbye, and then I talked to Xiaoqing for a while. When he came out, the maid at the door said, "Childe, the three gentlemen, Zhuge Gongzi, and Pang Gongzi are already waiting in the main hall!" ”

Tian Fan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go over now!" ”

Eat first, and after the meal, Tian Fan took the three teachers, Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, and Huang Yueying, to the main hall of the small courtyard.

Sit down, serve wine, and talk nonsense.

About a quarter of an hour later, Pang Degong couldn't stand it anymore, and he said, "Boguang, what is the matter with coming to us?" ”

Tian Fan took a sip of wine, looked at the three teachers, hugged his fists and said: "Father-in-law, two teachers, find a few people today, there is really something to discuss!" Moreover, the stakes are high, so ......"

Pang Degong rolled his eyes and said, ", if you have something to say, say it quickly!" ”

Tian Fan touched his nose and said, "Master Pang, if you talk like this, the disciple will be embarrassed!" Especially in front of Shi Yuan, Kong Ming, and Yueying's sister. ”

Sima Hui was also anxious, and said, "Boguang, why are you talking so much nonsense today?" Tell me quickly, tomorrow we are going to Wangshan Academy, we have to get up early, how can I have time to talk nonsense with you? ”

Huang Yueying laughed out loud.

Tian Fan smiled awkwardly, glared at Huang Yueying fiercely, and then nodded, "Okay, since my father-in-law and the two teachers are so anxious, then I'll be straightforward!" ”

After a slight pause, he looked at Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong and said, "A few of you should know that my White Tiger Legion will be listed in a few days." But now, I have a problem, and I want to ask Kong Ming and Shi Yuan for help! ”

The three old men glanced at each other, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong also glanced at each other, and Sima Hui said: "If you have something to say, just say it!" ”

Tian Fan bowed his head slightly and said, "Well, good!" The White Tiger Legion lacks civilian officials, and I want Shi Yuan and Kong Ming to help! ”

The three old men and the two young men were collectively stunned, only Huang Yueying still looked at Tian Fan so heartlessly and smiled, probably still reminiscing about what he had just eaten.

For a long time, none of the five of them spoke.

Tian Fan smiled and said, "Father-in-law, two teachers, I know what you think. You don't want Shi Yuan and Kong Ming to enter Xuzhou as officials, and the two virtuous brothers of Shi Yuan and Kong Ming are ...... to my lord There is also some disdain. I don't know why, and I won't ask, but I respect your thoughts. ”

After a slight pause, he continued: "Hehe, you can rest assured, I let Shi Yuan and Kong Ming join the White Tiger Legion, which is completely a personal act and does not represent Xuzhou." Also, the reason why I have such considerations is, on the one hand, for myself, and on the other hand, for the sake of Shiyuan and Kong Ming.

"It is better to read 10,000 books than to travel 10,000 miles. The accumulation of knowledge is not enough to come from books alone. Knowledge that has not been tested in actual combat can only be memorized knowledge, and can never be transformed into knowledge that can be flexibly used by oneself. Just like Zhao Kuo, he read countless military books, but in the end, when he came to the battlefield, it was because he had no experience and couldn't flexibly use those tactics of war that he lost to Bai Qi. I know that the two virtuous brothers have a high attainment in the art of war, but you have no actual combat experience, and you will never become a master of the art of war just by tasting it in the fighting room.

"There are many things in the army that are not in the books. If nothing else, let's just talk about how much grain and grass and horse feed I have to consume every day in the White Tiger Legion; Considering the consumption on the escort road, how much should be transported from Xiapi after a hundred miles of expedition, and how much should be transported from Xiapi after a thousand miles of expedition; When the army is far away from the base camp, how many guards need to be equipped with grain transportation teams of different sizes in order to not only reduce the consumption of grain, but also effectively protect the grain and grass; The length of time the soldiers go out for the battle, the size of the impact on morale, and how to boost morale when the soldiers are tired and demoralized;

"When cavalry and foot soldiers cooperate in battle, in order to ensure that after the cavalry charges, the infantry can immediately follow up and carry out a devastating attack on the enemy, how much time difference is needed; How many crossbowmen, how many pikemen, how many sword and shield soldiers should be equipped with an independent combat unit of 2,000 men, that is, a battalion of soldiers, and the corresponding ratio of different arms in the field against cavalry and infantry, and the corresponding ratio of different arms in siege warfare and field warfare; When a new type of weapon is born, or when a new type of military is born, how to adjust the existing tactics in order to give full play to the maximum combat effectiveness;

"When the war is going on, the tactics of different strategies will have different benefits, how to balance; Anyone who has read the book of war knows that the rewards and punishments are clear, but how to reward and how to punish; And so on, these things are not found in books, and they need to be constantly explored in practice, and after corroborating each other with the art of war in the war book, they can be slowly transformed into your own knowledge. ”

Taking a sip of wine and moistening his throat, Tian Fan looked at Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong with a smile on his face, and said, "Shiyuan, Kong Ming, come and help me!" "PS: Thank you for the old turtle in the river dam, Nanlin Beidou, and the reward of the floating life, thank you very much. Thank you for not giving up on me, a writer who has no discipline and, thank you, you are the reason for me to persevere!
