"Yuan Shu still has a letter?"

Zhou Yu immediately approached with a smile on his face and with interest.

came to Sun Ce's side to take a closer look, and after just a few glances, he laughed out loud, "Hehehahaha!" ”

"Yuan Highway is worthy of being the eldest son of the Yuan family, and he is really noble, under such circumstances, he can still order Bo Fu to send troops to help, and he will be named a general in the future."

"Bo Fu might as well abandon the business of Jiangdong and go to Yuan Shu again, so he can be a general directly."

Sun Ce pursed his lips and smiled, put the letter on the case, and said to Zhou Yu with his chest straight: "Gongjin really thinks so? ”

"That's right," Zhou Yu had a smile on his face, but he looked at Sun Ce deeply, and spoke after a while: "If that's the case, Yuan Shu is very relieved and waits for reinforcements from Bo Fu." ”

"As soon as our army arrives, we can attack from Danyang, occupy the south of Huainan, cross the river and fight, if we can occupy Hefei and other places, it will be of great benefit in the future."

"Near Hefei, such as Xiaoyaojin and Lufengjin, we can let our army advance and retreat freely, and occupy the risk of the river, but if we have not obtained these ferries, I am afraid it will not be so easy to come out of Jiangdong in the future."

When Zhou Yu said this, his face had calmed down.

He is neat and active, so when he speaks, his emotions are quite high, and he is full of confidence, and he has a deep understanding of the topography of the Jiangdong regions near Danyang.

Someone once said that the so-called geographical advantage of Jiangdong may be in the body of Zhou Gongjin.

Gong Jin's wisdom has been shown since he was a child, and his ability to lead the army has begun to accumulate as early as the age of fourteen, because the family is a famous family, and at the age of fourteen, he followed his uncle to govern the training of the Danyang Navy.

This demeanor like the leader of a wolf pack, of course, has been cultivated since childhood, and there is a style that makes people look at everywhere.

"Hmmm......"

Sun Ce was secretly happy in his heart, he felt quite accomplished when he heard this, and he also understood Zhou Yu's intentions, of course, he was not in the land of Jiangdong.

In the future, there are only two difficulties in Jiangdong, one is Huainan in the north, and the other is Jingzhou, both of which must be opened by sailors.

The plan is long-term.

"Okay, okay, Gong Jin can come out with a strategy in an instant, and he deserves to be the crown of Jiang Zuo's talents."

"Hehehe!" Zhou Yu laughed unabashedly at this compliment, but patted Sun Ce's shoulder and said affectionately: "But I understand that Bo Fu will not be able to act like this." ”

"Not bad!" Sun Ce put his hands behind his back, stood on his chest, and immediately said in a deep voice: "This plan will inevitably make me a villain between the Son of Heaven in Xudu and Shouchun Yuanshu." ”

"It's not advisable, Yuan Shu can't be attacked, this person has trespassed the Han family, the biggest help for me is to let the scholars in the territory work together to fight the thieves with me!"

"Hmmm! That's right! When Zhou Yu heard this, he walked a few steps excitedly in front of Sun Ce, holding his hand and clapping it continuously.

Said solemnly: "Yuan Shu's move can calm down the hearts of the originally turbulent scholars and fight with us." ”

"I want to thank him."

"But Bo Fu and listen to me, you can't cross the river and attack Shouchun, you should take the Lujiang River and attack Yuan Shu."

"Oh? Why did Gong Jin say this? ”

"Lujiang Lu's achievements are gradually declining, when Yuan Shu is arrogant, he is on one side, as if he is lying on the couch, Yuan Shu must be plotting."

Lujiang, just on the left side of Huainan, the two places border, Taishou Lu Ji and Yuan Shu have gradually become friends over the years, and the purpose is also to maintain the relationship between the two.

Some of them are compromised.

At this time, Yuan Shu transgressed, and it was impossible for Lu Ji to rebel together, and even because of the neighborhood, he had to make a choice as soon as possible.

If Sun Ce goes to attack, he will definitely be able to break his army as soon as possible.

"Yuan Shu is plotting, Lujiang will inevitably panic, and our intervention may allow the whole territory to surrender as soon as possible."

"It can also threaten Yuan Shu from the south and make meritorious service to the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty, which can be regarded as an edict, but if we march like this, we will inevitably make the Son of Heaven victorious."

"Don't fight passively."

Sun Ce nodded thoughtfully.

Indeed, only by defeating Yuan Shu can he stabilize his merits and ask the Son of Heaven for knighthood and official positions, so that he can truly suppress these Jiangdong clans.

"Okay, according to Gongjin's words!"

Sun Ce's eyes were slightly weak, and a smile gradually appeared on his face.

"Okay, send troops as soon as possible! Bolt Fu and order as soon as possible! ”

When Zhou Yu heard this, he immediately became interested.

Sun Ce smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Gong Jin really forgot to sleep and eat." ”

"The great cause must not be wasted! The opportunity is fleeting, Bo Fu quickly order! Zhou Yu is high-spirited, heroic, and his eyes are bright.

The two of them hurried out of the door and went out of the camp to give orders.

Sun Ce was actually waiting for Zhou Yu to arrive on this day, and he immediately sent troops as soon as he arrived.

……

At this time, the territory of Jizhou is called the Snail Mountain.

Xu Chu found this place with the caravan, and there was really Woniu Mountain near Guanzhuang, and there were really bandits on the mountain.

In all these years, he had not robbed caravans nearby, and when Xu Chu asked, he was really surprised.

And his brother was very curious.

At this moment, after a few days, many people asked for directions, and they knew the way into the mountain, and they saw it for a while.

"Brother, does the prince really have the ability to predict the future? This gang of mountain bandits has just entrenched themselves in Woniu Mountain. ”

"Haha, Zhongkang, you follow the Junhou Suwei around, don't you know? But come and ask me, otherwise you and I will change our duties? You come to train the army day and night, and I will go to the guard of the monarch? ”

"No, no," Xu Chu immediately shook his head, "I'm just amazed, it's just that the bandits in Woniu Mountain are not entrenched early, and they don't belong to Zhang Yan of Montenegro, but they seem to be supported by people from Guanzhuang." ”

"I've heard before, I also guard passing caravans to earn commissions, and I live like this, and I'm not a mountain bandit at all."

"Well, if there is really someone the prince is looking for, just ask, if not, let's go back and recover quickly."

"Eh, okay."

Xu Chu led the caravan into the path, and soon arrived at the rugged land, the road gradually narrowed, and only one or two people could pass by.

It was Xu Chu who walked quickly in front with a big sword, let the brothers behind him line up, and waited for the caravan horses outside the road, and then they looked inside.

This place is in the mountains, this road has already determined the terrain, it is impossible for a large army to pass by and investigate unclear, as long as they are here, the bandits in the mountains should be able to know, and then make a response.

Really.

Xu Chu and three or four guards had just passed, and many people suddenly appeared from the woods on the hills on both sides, and pointed their bows and arrows at him, several of them with fierce faces.

The leader wears a tiger fur hat with a scar on his face, dark skin and powerful arms.

At this time, Xu Chu paused, and the guards behind him tightened in his heart, looking at both sides with great vigilance.

At this time, Xu Chu immediately understood that the itinerary of himself and others had already been known, and the person who led the way here was probably also luring the enemy.

"Ladies and gentlemen, there is no need to be like this, we are not officers and soldiers who suppress bandits, and we will not use swords."

"This brother, we don't dare to believe this."

The man in the tiger fur hat immediately said.

"I heard that my brother has been inquiring about my Woniu Mountain bandits all the way, why is this?"

"When we first arrived here, we had never had a holiday with our brothers, and if we wanted to explore the road first, and then lead an army to attack, wouldn't we have nowhere to go? Now in troubled times, please make it convenient for my brother to see me here on the mountain, and you can't enter it again. ”

"Although this place is narrow, it can ambush hundreds of people and reach thousands of troops."

"After that, there are still three passes and six villages, all of which are guarded, and there is no hospitality for the body of thieves, so why don't you retreat?"

This thief is reasonable, looking at Xu Chu's size, I am afraid that he is not an ordinary young general, and this person's popularity is quite heroic and generous, and it is not easy to make enemies.

So the words were half intimidating, half exhortation, trying to persuade him to leave.

Then find someone to follow them all the way to see what kind of boundary they are back to.

In fact, after this ramp, there are no three passes and six villages, bypassing a narrow road about three miles, you can see the gate between the mountains.

When he said this, he also wanted Xu Chu to stop pestering.

At this time, Xu Chu smiled slightly, glanced left and right at these people with bows and arrows, and was ready to retreat at any time, but still said: "Woniu Mountain, there is one person who is Zhao Yun." ”

"But it is the old knowledge of my Lord, and if there is one, go and invite him, and I will invite him to meet him."

"If not, I will leave, but please don't stop you, this is the old relationship between my lord and Zhao Yun, and my lord made it clear that the two of them are from the same source, and I am afraid that the teacher is Tong Yuan, the king of guns."

"You don't have to worry about it, and call someone to report it, whether there is such a person or not, come back and sue me, and I will leave."

"In troubled times, you are not harming the people, but helping the people, and making a living by guarding the caravan, I came to follow the caravan chariot and horses, so I have never been embarrassed."

"But if you deceive me, you will not stop in the future."

"Humph! Just wait! ”

When the man in the tiger-fur hat heard this, he did not dare to disbelieve it, and marveled in his heart that the man had seen so many bows and arrows aimed at him, and there was no fear on his face.

In this way, it means that he is either very skilled in martial arts and has a high level of confidence in his skills, and he can withdraw at any time.

Either he is used to seeing life and death, and these postures can't frighten him, but only make him vigilant.

Signaling, he raised his left hand, and immediately half of the thieves put down their bows and arrows, and then hugged their fists at Xu Chu and said, "General, please wait, go down here and ask if there is such a person in the cottage." ”

He didn't say anything, and after seeing Xu Chu nodding, he immediately turned around and ran back, and soon disappeared from everyone's sight.

Seeing this, Xu Chu's mood calmed down slightly.

Sure enough, it was here.

I don't know who it is, who can be so concerned about the prince and marquis, but after so many years, he suddenly came to look for it, and it happened to be not long after this gang of bandits entrenched here.

It's a dead deal.

The power of the prophet is also uncertain.

Xu Chuhun didn't care about the bows and arrows around him, he just stood proudly and waited for the person to report.

Soon after, suddenly a white horse came from afar, and the person brought with it was a young Confucian general in a white robe, with clear eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, and a body that was not strong.

But at first glance, it belongs to the temperament of being strong and upright like a pine, holding a spear, accompanying the rear, and dismounting directly before and after approaching, striding forward.

Xu Chu's heart moved, and he immediately looked over.

The young man had no helmet or a crown on his head, but his long hair was tied behind his head and dangled in a ponytail.

It's really handsome, quite a bit of a prince's demeanor.

I didn't really know it at the beginning, this person didn't look like a brave general, but the spear in his hand seemed to have been used for a long time, and the cloth that was bound had been yellowed.

"Zhao Zilong in Xia Changshan, dare to ask who his old friend is?!"

Zhao Yun came out of the crowd and came to Xu Chu, with a serious expression, not angry and arrogant, and he was also a heroic person.

Xu Chu smiled: "Down, Runan Xu Chu." ”

"The word Zhongkang."

"My family's name is Xu Zhen, the word Bowen, and now it is Chen Liutaishou, who specially ordered me to look for you."

"Xu Bowen!?"

Zhao Yun frowned, and was a little stunned for a while, "Wait, I've heard of this person's name, but I haven't masked my face, why do you say it's an old acquaintance?" ”

Xu Chu thought for a while and said, "Uh...... What is the marksmanship of my prince and marquis...... He instructed me that if I met and asked, I would say that this origin was all related to Tong Yuan, the king of guns. ”

"Impossible."

Zhao Yun's face suddenly turned ugly, I am a closed disciple.

After teaching my master, he didn't know where to go, and now he doesn't even know life and death, and he may live in seclusion somewhere.

Are you lying to me?

When I was studying art, Master wasn't that kind of person.

Is it my brother? But I've never heard him mention it.

"What the general said...... But really? "Zhao Yun is not a very defensive person, but he is quite benevolent, but he is brave in battle, and he is inclined to be an elegant general.

So when I think about these things, I feel a little curious.

Mainly, Xu Bowen's name, he has indeed heard of it.

There are not many benevolent people in the world, and even fewer can spread their reputation.

Liu Yu, Liu Bei, Liu Biao, these Han clan relatives are famous, love the people like sons, and they have spread far and wide.

And Xu Zhen's name was also spread with caravans and exiled people, which was even more admirable.

It was Zhao Yun who believed it.

"Naturally, it's true, and this money was given to you by my family's prince," Xu Chu took out the bag from his arms, threw it to him from afar, and then said, "It's for your sister-in-law and nephew." ”

"A few years ago, I learned that Your Excellency's eldest brother passed away due to illness, and the prince was marching and fighting, and he couldn't go, so it was counted as comfort."

"Do you know about my eldest brother...... This prince ......"

Zhao Yun thought about it carefully, the people he has known over the years are the heroes he met on the way to the rangers, but there is a surname Xu?!

After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't think of it, and immediately became more and more curious, who is Xu Bowen, who really knows me?!

Or do you know my big brother?!

Otherwise, why can you know my origin so much, and also know that I am looking for it in Woniu Mountain.

"Your Excellency, whether to go or not, give me a word, and I will go back to my life."

Xu Chu stepped forward and raised his hand, clenched his fists slightly, his face was quite displeased, the words had already been said so clearly, if he didn't go, forget it, why bother to invite each other.

"Huh!" Zhao Yun suddenly smiled calmly, and also hugged his fists and said: "Since the general is so frank, then Zilong also has a try." ”

"The general will go back to the cottage with me for one night, and drink and talk with me tonight, if the general is willing to come, I will go with him."

"Let's go."

Xu Chu was neat, immediately stepped forward, walked directly in front of Zhao Yun, and said in a deep voice: "Where in the world can the big man go, why do you need to look forward and fix yourself?" If you are invited, of course I am not afraid to enter the cottage. ”

"If I go to the cottage, not only do I want to drink with you, but I also ask Your Excellency to let me see how the so-called marksmanship with my prince and marquis is." Xu Chu is also a stubborn person, although he is arrogant but has a big temper, if he invites me to go, it is difficult to ask him to leave.

Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment, and suddenly had a great impression of Xu Chu, and immediately gave his hand to him, and smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Great, the general is open-minded, please!" ”
