"Ahem, General Zhang hasn't answered Jia's question yet?" Seeing that Zhang An seemed to be a little distracted, Guo Jia coughed lightly and said, "Also, you have been posthumously named General Zhichong, although General Zhang has returned safely now, but the lord has never been in the habit of taking back the things he has given, and you naturally deserve the title of general." ”

Zhang An was a little surprised, but he quickly figured it out, although it was a chase seal, but he could directly get to the five-grade miscellaneous number in one step, and it was estimated that Cao Cao was looking at Lu Bu's face.

But he will leave at any time, even if he mixes with the general? Zhang An didn't show too much surprise, just smiled and nodded.

But in Guo Jia's eyes, this is Zhang An's expression of pampering and humiliation, and he couldn't help but have a little appreciation in his eyes when he looked at Zhang An.

"Returning to the military division, Zhang An did not encounter any barbarians along the way. Zhang An said respectfully.

Although Guo Jia's image in history is mostly described as bohemian and uninhibited, Zhang An has respect for this person who was judged by later generations to be the top three strategists of the Three Kingdoms even after his untimely death.

"Fengxian, don't you think it's strange?" Guo Jia asked Zhang An to sit next to him, and then said to Lu Bu, "We have sent scouts again and again in the past few days, but we have found nothing. ”

"Feng Xiao means that the barbarians have already retreated?" Lu Bu first said suspiciously, and then said hatefully, "It's quite fast, but I must avenge the blood sea!"

Lu Bu and Guo Jia are obviously very familiar with each other, and they all call each other by tables, but it is not surprising, one is a general, the other is a replot, and the two must have a lot of contacts on weekdays.

"Fengxiao is not in a hurry, Jiaguan is quite strange in this matter. Guo Jia's hand unconsciously touched his waist, and Zhang An's sharp eyes found that Guo Jia was touching a small wine jug hanging from his waist.

Lu Bu also noticed Guo Jia's movements, and he said with a smile, "It's okay if Fengxiao wants to drink, the tent is all his own people, and no one will chew on the root of Chen Changwen's tongue." ”

Cao Chun and the other general laughed.

Chen Changwen has always been unaccustomed to Guo Jia's informality, and he doesn't know how many times he has made a small report to Cao Cao.

Guo Jia is not easy to mess with, as a result, as long as the two meet, they will fight.

However, Lu Bu and the others have no opinion on Guo Jia's addiction to alcohol, after all, as long as they are martial artists, they almost have a good amount of alcohol.

If it weren't for being in the military camp at this time, and on the way to lead the troops, I was afraid that Lu Bu and the others would have pulled Guo Jia to drink together.

Guo Jia licked his mouth, took off the wine jug, and said with a smile, "Then Jia Ke is not welcome, don't be envious when you see Jia drinking." ”

Zhang An looked at Guo Jia, who was drinking the wine in the pot, and felt that this was in line with Guo Jia's image in his heart.

Guo Jia put down the wine jug, looked at Zhang Anzheng looking at him intently, shook the wine jug and said with a smile, "General Zhang, but you also want to drink?"

"No, no, no, Zhang An, as General Lu's personal guard, should share weal and woe. Zhang An said seriously.

Lu Bu shook his head with a smile and said, "You guy." ”

The rest of the group laughed, and the oppressive atmosphere that had been in place for many days was swept away.

"By the way, I don't know what this general is called?" Zhang An asked with a salute to the general who had been smiling and not speaking.

"A certain is Xiahou Yuan, you call me Miaocai. The general said with a smile.

"Zhang An has seen General Xiahou. "Another amazing character, Zhang An hurriedly said hello.

Zhang An secretly smacked his tongue, the ghost talent Guo Jia, the flying general Lu Bu, the trapped camp Gao Shun, the tiger and leopard riding Cao Chun, plus Xiahou Yuan, who was the best at running thousands of miles, the camp that was enough to scare people to death only appeared as a vanguard force, it seems that Lao Cao is really angry.

Everyone laughed for a while, and at this time, a soldier brought Zhang An's food, Zhang An hurriedly devoured his food, and stopped talking, while the others returned the topic to the barbarians.

"I don't know what Feng Xiao thinks of this?" Xiahou Yuan touched his extremely neat beard, and said worriedly, "Do you think it is possible that they have sneaked around us and directly attacked Meng De's Chinese army?"

"There is so little information collected to make a judgment. Guo Jia took a sip of wine and said thoughtfully, "But Jia thinks that the barbarians should have withdrawn." ”

"Oh, why do you say that?" Cao Chun said puzzledly, "those barbarians should be attacking with a big victory at this time." ”

"According to Bongxian Kazuko and you, the barbarians slaughtered everywhere they passed, leaving no chickens and dogs behind. Guo Jia said, "If this news spreads, it will only arouse the common hatred of the subjects under the lord's rule, and make the barbarians invade the south with countless resistance, so when the general forces invade other forces, they will fight and appease at the same time." I think that the barbarian king is also a generation of male lords who have unified the outside of the Saiwai, it is impossible not to know this kind of thing, so why did he do such an unwise thing?"

Without waiting for Lu Bu and the others to speak, Guo Jia continued, "So Jia thinks that the barbarians' southern invasion this time is not to attack the Central Plains, but has other purposes, but Jia can't figure out why. ”

"Could it be that these barbarians are here to kill people this time?" Gao Shun guessed.

However, he soon denied that "there are casualties among the barbarians who attack our army, and such unwise things can only be done by a madman." ”

Listening to Gao Shun's words, Guo Jia touched his chin thoughtfully, but he didn't speak, but drank wine by himself.

"Well, it's useless to talk about it now, and we'll discuss it when we really march into the outside of the city. Lu Bu waved his hand and began to pick people up, "It's getting late, all the gentlemen go to rest, Gongzheng, the night patrol at night will have you and the trapping camp, and only the sinking camp under your command is the most sensitive among the soldiers here." ”

Gao Shun got up and saluted and said, "For the things that are within the division, there is no need to be polite." ”

Several other people got up and retreated, and only Zhang An and Lu Bu, who were still eating and drinking, were left in the big tent.

Zhang An swallowed the last bite of food, wiped his mouth, and touched his bulging lower abdomen with satisfaction, "Fengxian, don't you know how happy it is to have a hot meal to eat." ”

Lu Bu said lightly, "I have been fighting for many years, what situation have I not encountered?"

Then Lu Bu asked Zhang An a very terrifying question: "Have you ever eaten human flesh?"

Zhang An looked at Lu Bu with wide eyes, wouldn't it, Lu Bu had eaten human flesh?!

"Naturally, I haven't eaten it. Lu Bu said: "No, because of the lack of grain and grass, that guy used to mix human flesh into the grain and grass. That guy is ruthless, you have to stay away from him in the future, otherwise you will offend him, and you don't know how you died. ”

Zhang An naturally knew that Cheng Yu, a figure who was the same as Guo Jia, was a conspiracy under Cao Cao, but after coming here, he mostly dealt with military generals, but he didn't think of this ruthless man.

"In this march, the five major strategists under the command of the lord, Feng Xiao is in the vanguard, Xun Yu Xun Gongda is the military division of the rear army, Xun Lingjun is in charge of government affairs on behalf of the lord in Xudu, staying by the lord's side, and it is Cheng Yu and Jia Xu Jia Wenhe who give advice to the lord. ”

Jia Xu and Cheng Yu? Zhang An was taken aback, it seems that Cao Cao was really angry this time.

Especially Jia Xu, this is a character who has been evaluated by later generations as the first poisoner of the Three Kingdoms.

"This time the barbarians are going to have bad luck. Zhang An pouted.

"Zhang An, you are tired today, go back and rest early. Lu Bu walked to Zhang An's side with the Fang Tian painting halberd and handed it to Zhang An.

Zhang An subconsciously took the halberd and looked at Lu Bu in surprise.

"I don't need it anymore. Lu Bu said a short word and walked out of the big tent.

Zhang An felt that Lu Bu's words were meaningful, but at this time, when he was full of food, he only felt sleepy, and he didn't bother to think about it anymore, so he took the halberd and asked the soldier standing on the side to take him to his tent.

The next day, Zhang An put on the armor sent by the soldiers in the morning, carried Fang Tian's halberd and went to Lu Bu to report, his current identity is Lu Bu's personal guard, and he must follow Lu Bu.

When he saw Lu Bu, Zhang An looked at Lu Bu in surprise.

"Fengxian, why are you wearing this?" Zhang An asked, "The army is about to be pulled, what about your armor?"

"After that day, there was an occasional breakthrough, and everything was useless. Lu Bu turned over and rode on an ordinary war horse, and said in a calm tone, "That set of armor, when you are successful in martial arts, it will be yours." ”

Zhang An rode on his war horse and followed Lu Bu closely, "Fengxian, you are making it clear, what is an occasional breakthrough?"

"Now, it's already above Gangqi. Speaking of the fact that his strength had gone further, Lu Bu's face did not have the slightest joy, but a hint of gloom.

Zhang An immediately understood, Lu Bu had always broken through after being stimulated after the defeat.

"Anyway, it's always good to be stronger. Zhang An comforted: "At least if you meet the barbarian king again this time, you can capture him alive and then cut him with a thousand knives." ”

"Yes, killing him with a knife is too cheap for him. Lu Bu nodded in agreement.

Amid the conversation between the two, the army marched forward.

But the strange thing is that the army marched all the way, but did not meet even a single barbarian.

Not to mention the large army of barbarians, even the scout rangers have not been encountered.

This made everyone's hearts can't help but be clouded with a layer of haze.

Barbarians, what are you going to do?

And as the scattered scouts returned to the camp one after another, they also brought news from the surrounding area.

All the cities and passes that were captured by the barbarians have all become empty cities.

After taking everything they could, the barbarians withdrew.

At a temporary military meeting, Guo Jia said, "The barbarians will never attack such a large army just for the sake of money, they must have other actions, and the reason must be investigated!"

Guo Jia's face was very ugly, as if he vaguely knew something, but he didn't want to say it explicitly.

Once again, the vanguard scouts scattered in all directions to inquire about the barbarians, but still found nothing.

Finally, the army marched to the mountain pass where all the tiger and leopard riders were killed.

The army rested for a day and held a huge memorial service.

The next day, the sun had just risen in the east.

Standing on a high platform made of makeshift earth, Lu Bu looked at the neatly lined army below and showed a bloodthirsty smile.

"The whole army is marching!" Lu Bu pointed to the north and shouted sharply, "I want to make the barbarians pay for their blood debts!"
