On September 11, the fifth year of Jian'an, outside the gate of the suspension bridge in Xicheng, Nandun County.

Five thousand soldiers and soldiers of Yuan Army, who were well nourished, had food, horses, enough water and food, bright clothes and armor, and held all the same war knives in their hands, facing the fierce wind, and were preparing to march in the direction of Runan.

A group of officials in the county lined up in two rows outside the city gate, silently bowing their heads to see off Yuan Jun, their expressions were silent, their faces were reluctant, but in fact, they couldn't beat gongs and drums, swayed pennants, and said goodbye loudly.

These ruffians are finally out!

It is no wonder that these county officials are inconsistent, hating Yuan Jun and hating itchy, since beating these 5,000 people and refusing to defend Nandun County, they first "killed" Deng Chang and Deng County Slaughter, gained a foothold in prestige, and then ate and drank them every day, and also gave the rice in the county that should have been given to the county guards to the thieves in Jiuli Mountain! What do you say to make food for the people affected by the disaster?

What's even more annoying is that they just left, and 5,000 people were still wrapped in large bags and small bags before leaving, packing them one by one, even eating and taking them on their behalf, which was really shameless if you wanted to be shameless.

Especially the little general who is in the lead, how can there be such a shameless person in the world.

Of course, the officials of Nandun County, who did not know about it, had already calculated all this account on the head of Liu Bei in Runan.

Just when the five thousand calamity stars were about to set off, they saw a black horse slowly coming out of the team, and immediately a young general in silver armor looked at a group of county officials with a stern face, and his handsome face was full of reluctance.

"All the good officials of Nanton County, there has been a lot of disturbance in the past few days, and I am deeply ashamed that your food in Nanton County is delicious, and the Son of Heaven will remember your merits!" Yuan Shang arched his hand towards the county officials with a straight face, and his expression was very sincere.

The officials of Nanton County are also vain and resigned, their eyes are red, and their faces are reluctant: "The general doesn't need to be so polite, Uncle Liu Huang is the Son of Heaven and Li Min, and I am very fortunate to be able to serve Uncle Huang's soldiers and horses!" ”

Yuan Shang nodded heavily: "Okay, that's right, all the princes are really good ministers of the Son of Heaven, and they are good sons of my big man!" Ben will be reluctant to give you up! ”

The officials of the county government also looked sad and inexplicable, and a few even squeezed out a few tears.

"I can't wait for the general! I can't bear the benevolence and righteousness of the emperor's uncle! ”

Yuan Shangqing couldn't help himself: "Princess! ”

The officials burst into tears: "General! ”

"Since we're all so reluctant to give up on each other, otherwise, Ben will stay here for a few more days, right?"

Officials: ""

After a long silence.

"General, Uncle Liu Huang can't do without you! You'd better go back! Don't grind! ”

"That's it, it's better to recover the Central Plains, and the matter of rescuing the Son of Heaven is more important!"

"General, you have a priority."

"Yes, we can't let Cao Cao's old thief continue to be arrogant! General, hurry up and go to King Qin! ”

"General, don't forget the instructions on the edict, the time has come, hurry up! It's late to start, and it's not good for the teacher. ”

Yuan Shang nodded when he heard this, turned around and said with emotion to Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran: "See, in a small county of 100 miles, there are so many loyal ministers who think about the Son of Heaven, and they all talk about rescuing the Son of Heaven and put it in their hearts, we are really ashamed of ourselves, it is not as good as it!" You need to be very reluctant. ”

Zhang Jaw's face twitched when he heard this, and he lowered his head, with a strange look that couldn't help but want to laugh but couldn't.

Gao Ran raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his head, and said with a dry smile: "Childe, don't make trouble, the second brother is a little faceless."

***************************

In the hateful and resentful gaze of the officials, Yuan's soldiers and horses slowly pulled out and headed in the direction of Runan.

On the way, Yuan Shang had nothing to do to talk to Zhang Jaw. …,

"General Zhang, what kind of person is this Liu Bei?" For this legendary uncle Liu Huang, who is generous and benevolent and loves the people like a son, Yuan Shang unconsciously became deeply interested.

Hearing this, Zhang Jaw touched his beard, thought about it quite seriously for a while, and then seriously summed up six words: "Kind, decisive, benevolent, restrained, cunning, vicious." ”

"Oh?" Yuan Shang suddenly became interested when he heard this, and said, "There are still such people in the world?" These six words seem to be able to represent six types of people, which don't match. ”

Zhang Jaw smiled when he heard this, and said: "Yes, ordinary people can only have one of these six temperaments at most, but in Liu Bei, they can be completely harmonious and reunited, this person is really not a hero, in some aspects, the lord and Cao Cao are not comparable, but although the third prince is assured, although Liu Bei is now in Runan, but strategically it is necessary to unite with our army in the north and south to resist Cao Cao, and the lord was kind to him in the past, he will never have bad intentions towards us, on the contrary, he will definitely treat us warmly, but will he send troops to help us, But the last general is unknown. ”

Yuan Shang nodded when he heard this, and said: "To tell the truth, if Liu Bei can send troops north at this juncture and go straight to Xudu, it will definitely shake the Central Plains, and then Cao Jun will have no time to take care of us, so we can take the opportunity to find a way to return to Hebei, and the embarrassing situation of being free from the outside will be solved." ”

Zhang Jaw pondered for a long time when he heard this, and said: "With Liu Bei's person, I'm afraid it's difficult."

"No, he will!" Yuan Shang swore and patted his chest, his eyes shining.

"Why is Childe so sure?" Seeing that Yuan Shang was full of confidence, Zhang Jaw couldn't help but wonder in his heart.

Yuan Shang smiled when he heard this, because I am the one who knows the Tao.

After the battle of Guandu, Cao Cao and Liu Bei did start a big battle on the southern side of Runan, and the losing side was of course Liu Bei, that is, this battle, forced Liu Bei to abandon the city and abscond, rushed into Jingzhou, and hibernate in Xinye for seven years, and from then on, he carried out the brilliance and brilliance of the second half of his life for the nine counties of Jingxiang.

Of course, Yuan Shang can't say these words to Zhang Jaw.

"Because General Zhang you also said just now, Liu Bei is not an ordinary person, since he is not an ordinary person, he will definitely have the insight and consciousness of not an ordinary person, Liu Bei has been able to develop smoothly in Runan until now, the key reason is because Cao Cao has been concentrating on our Yuan Zhou Xuan, and now our army has retreated north, General Zhang, if you are Cao Cao, will you still let Liu Bei make peace in your own backyard?"

When Zhang Jaw heard this, he immediately blurted out: "Of course not!" ”

"If you don't, presumably Cao Cao's old thief will be even more not, so if Liu Bei wants to survive, the only way out is to take advantage of the fact that Cao's army has not returned in the north now, and quickly attack Xudu, and if he can't succeed, he will come second, but at least he won't sit still, waiting for Cao Cao to coerce the army to clean him up."

Hearing this, Zhang Jaw suddenly praised him: "The son is high, and the end will not be in time." ”

Looking up at the sky, it was already noon, Yuan Shang changed the topic and said, "General Zhang, how many miles have we walked?" ”

Hearing this, Zhang Jaw touched it and said, "Since I left Nanton County, it's probably more than fifty miles, right?" ”

Yuan Shang couldn't help frowning slightly, and said dissatisfiedly: "Shenma situation!" Let's start at midday, it's noon now, how did we get out of the fifty-mile road? What about outings! How come there is no sense of urgency at all! ”

Zhang Jaw sighed when he heard this, and said: "General, there is no way, before going to Nandun County, our army ran wild day and night in order to avoid Xiahou Yuan's pursuit, and people still couldn't support it, let alone Ma Hu?" When we arrived in Nanton County, more than 200 war horses of our army died due to fatigue from long-distance running.

"What?" Yuan Shang frowned immediately when he heard this, and said, "Our five thousand soldiers are all elite cavalry, how can we have no horses?" ”

Hearing this, Zhang Jaw sighed: "The last general also knows this, but there are almost no war horses in Nanton County, and the horses cannot be replenished, so it can only be like this for the time being."

"No! If the horses are not replenished, what if they are caught up by Xiahou Yuan's soldiers and horses, or run into other Cao troops, are we fighting or running? If you want to return to Hebei safely, the premise is that you must have horses as the foundation! Otherwise, it will be too much of a loss! Immediately send scouts to investigate the surrounding counties and counties to see where they can replenish the war horses, and arm our own soldiers first, which is the right thing! ”

When Zhang Jaw heard the order, he immediately sent his scouts to investigate in all directions to see if there were any nearby counties to replenish horses.

As the saying goes, no book is written without coincidence, and in a time-traveling novel like this book, the so-called serendipitous coincidences are even more overflowing.

When he was young, he saw a scout flying horse galloping back, the spout's face was full of smiles, and he shouted at Yuan Shang in the distance: "Son, third son, happy event!" What a happy event! ”

Yuan Shang raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and said, "What is so happy?" Cheer you on like a bear? ”

The scout rushed to the front, arched his hand at Yuan Shangyi, and said happily: "Third son, great joy!" On the small road ten miles away from here in the south, there is a group of people who look like merchants, driving hundreds of war horses to the south, and those war horses are the best horses at a glance! ”

When Yuan Shang heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said, "Hundreds? Hundreds of horses is hundreds? Speak clearly! ”

The scout pondered for a moment and said, "Not less than three hundred!" ”

"More than 300 good horses?" Yuan Shang's eyes suddenly glowed green.

But after a while, he saw Yuan Shang's expression leak, shook his head and said, "No, absolutely not!" We can't move those horses. ”

Zhang Jaw said strangely when he heard the words on the side: "Childe, why is this?" ”

"It's still the same sentence, we are the teachers of benevolence and righteousness, robbing officials and not robbing the people, since it is a caravan, it must be the local people, we can go to the county to rob the official grain and baggage, but we can't rob the people of a single stitch! This case can't be opened! ”

Hearing this, Zhang Jaw's face turned straight, and he arched his hand and said: "Gongzi Gaoyi, the last general admires!" ”

But seeing that the scout hesitated, he said to Yuan Shang tentatively: "Third son, please forgive the villain for being bold and outspoken, although the villain looks at the caravan that drives the horse is dressed as a businessman, but a strong individual and fierce face, not like ordinary people, especially the leading man, with a beard, scars on his face, a murderous aura all over his body, and a smell of thieves, he is not a good person at first glance."

Yuan Shang perked up when he heard this, and said, "What do you mean?" ”

"The villain suspects that the group of businessmen is just a thief pretending to cover people's eyes, and those war horses should also be stolen goods, of course, the villain is not completely sure, and the son needs to judge it himself."

Yuan Shang's face suddenly smiled, patted the scout's shoulder across the horse, and said with a smile: "You kid is good, you share worries for the Lord, you have a lot of eyesight!" It's a pity to be a scout, turn back to Hebei, and promote a lieutenant to you! ”

The scout was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "Seal me as a captain?" Third son, you didn't lie to me, did you? ”

Of course it was a lie, you believe it, and sure enough, it was the life of the scout.

"General Zhang, order the whole army to immediately rush to the first ten miles of the caravan to ambush, if they are really not good citizens, this son will eliminate the harm for the people today! Win the horse for the people! This bad breath for the people!"
