Chapter Twenty-Six: Wisdom Collects Gou An and Harms Cao Jun
After Xu Hong learned all this, he smiled, everything was under control, and the rest of the things were much easier, Lu Bujun's local yamen, to write a letter to report Guo Tu for the crime of indecency, when the letter was about to be sent to Yuan Shao, Xu Hong came forward to stop the letter, and burned it in front of Guo Tu, and appeased a few passers-by, Guo Tu was grateful, Xu Hong asked him something, and he answered.
"In the future, there will be Mr. Lao Guotu, if there is any news, it will be convenient. ”
"You must know everything. ”
So Xu Hong learned of Yuan Shao's deployment, he checked the map situation again, and found that in the deployment of Cao's army, there was a heavy place for soldiers and food, that is, Puyang, and a lot of grain and grass were in the city.
"It would be great if there was an internal response to transport some grain and grass to Xuzhou, but if this kind of errand is not done well, it will lose its head, and who wants to do it?" Xu Hong was in trouble for a while.
"Military advisor, there is a madman outside the barracks, saying that he was born to be the material of the grain transport officer, and the soldiers tested him and found that he really has the ability, but his words are vulgar and drunk, and he does not dare to ask the military adviser to deal with it. ”
"Oh, there are such strange people, please hurry up. ”
"Wow. ”
Xu Hong thought to himself: "Is it possible to come to whatever you want?"
"Strategist, the man has been brought. ”
"Prepare two tables for a banquet, and I will entertain this master. Xu Hong greeted him with a smile.
"Wow. ”
"You... Okay! With insight and vision, I am willing to drink with you!"
Xu Hong almost laughed, he thought to himself: "Who should I be, it turned out to be Gou An, who delayed Zhuge Liang's military rations on the 15th in history." ”
Xu Hong went up and hugged Gou An, a brother shouted, and then the two of them ate the banquet, Xu Hong toasted vigorously, and his words revealed his praise for Gou An.
"You are really a genius food transport officer, you are so fast, if you are asked to transport military rations, you can say that it is a thousand miles a day, hahaha. ”
"Hiccup~ It's easy to say, it's easy to say, as long as there is good wine, let you do whatever you want, drink!"
Then Xu Hong directly drunk Gou An, and then ordered someone to carry him out, and sent a deputy general to ride a fast horse, hiding letters on Gou An's body, and deliberately wandering around near the station of Cao Jun Xiahoudun, and was soon discovered by Xiahoudun's men.
"Stop those two. ”
Cao Jun's scouts quickly dispatched, the deputy general turned the horse's head after seeing this, and a person fell in a panic, and when the Cao Jun scouts caught up, they turned over the people on the ground, it turned out to be Gou An, he was still in a drunken dream at the moment, and the scout groped out the letter from his arms, and did not dare to open it and bring this person back, and handed it directly to Xiahoudun.
"This person turned out to be Lu Bujun, the newly appointed grain officer, who commanded the grain and grass escort of the six counties of Xuzhou, and such people fell into our army, and they should be handed over to the lord to decide. ”
Then Xiahou ordered someone to take Gou An to the carriage and transport it to Xuchang City overnight.
On the second day, Cao Cao saw Gou An, who was kneeling below.
"Are you Gou'an?"
"Yes ... I am. ”
"Have you ever seen Xu Hong, what does he look like?"
Gou An told everything he saw.
"What is Xu Hong asking you for?"
"Let me be the grain transport officer. ”
Cao Cao's eyes lit up and asked him: "You know how to escort military rations." ”
"Yes, three generations of my family have made a living from this, and they all serve in the army, specializing in escorting military rations. ”
"Say it quickly, don't deceive. ”
"Wow. ”
Gou An looked at Cao Cao in front of him, very frightened and scared, and told all the ways to transport military rations, Cao Cao was very satisfied after listening to it, because what Gou An said did make sense.
"Seeing that you have no friendship with Xu Hongsu, you have not yet taken office, and you are not considered a military minister of Lu Bu, are you willing to come to our army to serve?"
"Yes... Yes, eat in a bowl everywhere, and drink wine. ”
"Hahaha, okay, I ordered you to be the soldier food officer, in charge of the army food escort, and you can choose the good wine. ”
Gou An was overjoyed and hurriedly kowtowed to thank him: "Thank you Cao Gong, thank you Cao Gong." ”
He was about to die of joy, I don't know how he was captured by Cao Jun, he was originally going to Lu Bujun to be a grain transport officer, but I didn't expect Cao Cao to be ashamed, but instead appointed me, and didn't care about what I did before, and gave me wine to drink, wouldn't I be very happy.
So Gou An went to Cao Jun's granary, and began to dispatch and transport military rations, I have to say that Gou An is indeed talented, it didn't take long to transport Cao Jun's various military rations, properly managed, and transported in a very timely manner, all the soldiers of Cao Jun's generals mentioned Gou An, they were very satisfied, and often praised him in front of Cao Cao.
"It seems that this person is indeed a talent, and our army has added another capable general. When Cao Cao learned about this, he touched his beard and laughed.
Just when Cao Cao was secretly happy, there was movement on Xu Hong's side.
"That's the tent, and you can't be reckless. ”
"Wow. ”
Gou An was asleep, turned over, and saw a long knife on his neck.
"Oh!"
Liu Sandao's subordinates directly covered his mouth, signaling that if he wanted to live, then shut up, Gou An nodded hurriedly.
"Aren't you the grain transport officer of our army? Why did you run into Cao Cao's army, could it be that you have already secretly communicated with Cao Cao and deliberately wanted to murder our army?"
"No, no, I was really captured by Cao Jun, so I had to do it, please spare my life, generals. Gou An hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy.
"If you want to live, you hear clearly, tomorrow escort 30,000 stone soldiers' rations, at the junction of the west side of Xuzhou, when the time comes, you can quickly lead the army to retreat, you don't need to take care of other things, this is the road map, tomorrow will follow this walk, if you dare to disobey, hum. ”
Liu Sandao took the knife and lifted him up.
"I don't need to say more about the consequences. Liu Sandao's fierce and vicious appearance made Gou An tremble all over his body.
"Yes, yes, I will obey the order, I will escort to the designated place, I will... ”
Gou An looked up and found that there was no one around, he rubbed his eyes, thinking that he had a nightmare, stood up and breathed a long sigh of relief, and returned to the bed, suddenly there was a knife on it, and a piece of paper was pierced on it, and the paper was written in blood.
"Deliver grain honestly, or die!"
Gou An saw that the back was like earth, and it turned out that all this was true.
In this way, Gou An did not sleep well all night, but waited until dawn with trepidation, and then hurriedly reported to Xiahoudun.
"When the day of escorting rations has come, I will go to deliver rations to the front. ”
Xiahoudun did not doubt it and directly approved him.
Then Gou An, with 30,000 stone soldiers' rations, set off along the route given by Xu Hong.
