Volume 2 The Rise of Jingzhou Chapter 120 Before the Great War, the Final Preparations

"Major General, are we going to enter Hangu Pass?"

At this time, when Hangu was closed, Xu Shu rode his horse again, bowed to that Liu Xie and asked.

"How is Zhang Xiu, the guard of Hangu?"

"Zhang Xiu's letter has prepared the grain and straw, and at the same time admits that he has received an order from the imperial court, and if necessary, he can immediately hand over the pass..."

"Let's wait!" After thinking for a moment, Liu Xie finally sighed, "This Hanguguan can be regarded as very important, if it is careless... Let's hold off for a moment! ”

"No."

Xu Shu didn't have any opinion on this, although they had a lot of soldiers and horses in the army at this time, they could be independent... Hardly.

If you have to say it, it's Guan Yu.

But if Guan Yu is to be the main general, this matter is probably too ridiculous.

Of course, if I have to say, there is also a Gan Ning .... If this is the case, I'm afraid Liu Xie will not agree.

It is only at this time that Liu Xie feels that he really has a long way to go, there are really not many people available, everyone has their own tasks, once there is any change.

He's afraid he doesn't even have anyone to deal with.

"Tell Zhang Xiu to let him provide food and baggage, and then escort the army to move on.

As for other things... Wait for the handover of the garrison sent by the imperial court! ”

Liu Xie also got Liu Ye's secret letter at this time, and knew the change in leading the troops to the expedition this time, the main general was still Liu Ye, and Zhang Ji would directly take over Zhang Xiu and the soldiers and horses under his command.

At the same time, the premise that Xu Huang was stationed in Tongguan was retained, and Ma Dai would be transferred to Hangu Pass.

As Ma Chao's cousin, although Ma Dai is still young, he can be regarded as having some ability at this time.

Moreover, he followed Liu Xie to Huainan and made some meritorious achievements, which can be regarded as a little mature.

Let Ma Dai come to garrison Hangu Pass, even Liu Xie is relieved, of course... If he could, Liu Xie would prefer to be the current Hedong defender Jia Kui!

This guy who has a tacit understanding with Du Hedong is now a rare talent for a big man.

It's just that this time he was indispensable to attack and merge with the state, just because although Guan Yu and Zhang Fei have been stationed in Hedong County over the years.

But most of the people they faced were rogue people, and the real Taihang Mountain giant bandits and the high-ranking cadres of Na Bingzhou didn't really fight.

But.... Jia Kui has!

Gao Gan once harassed Hedong with illness, but was scared away by Jia Kui, and Zhang Yan of Taihang Mountain also had such thoughts, wanting to plunder the increasingly rich Hedong, but he was also ambushed by Jia Kui and then directly defeated.

There are not many soldiers and horses, but they have excellent eyes, in Du Ji's words...

"Jia Kui can be a famous general in the future!"

Well... Maybe from Du Ji's point of view, Jia Kui is a famous general, but Guan Yu and the others still scoffed after hearing this.

But Liu Xie still admits this, after all, this guy will be in the future generations... is also worthy of the name of a famous general.

If it weren't for his son... Ahem, ahem...

After gossiping no more, Liu Xie led the army to continue in the direction of Bingzhou, interspersed through Hangu Pass.

That Zhang Xiu wanted to meet but was directly stopped by Guan Yu, and Liu Xie didn't want to see him now.

As for Hedong County, Nadugi has already received the news, and has prepared the grain and waited for a long time...

The path behind is much simpler, Guan Yu is familiar with the road, and led the army directly across the Yellow River and then entered the Hedong County under the response of Du Ji.

At the same time, the guard of Keiguan, Zhenggu, also ensured the safety of the flanks of this army, and began to wander and patrol the upper and lower reaches of the river half a month in advance, just in case.

The grain and straw of Hedong County were also delivered to the hands of the army for the first time, which made Xu Shu and others marvel once.

"I never thought that the relationship between General Zuo and the imperial court was so deep, if I let that Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao know, I don't know how much to worry about.

Hahahaha...."

At this time, in Xu Shu's eyes, he never thought that the nephew of General Zuo beside him, the young general of Nanyang County, would be the emperor of the Han Dynasty who was supposed to preside over major events in the capital Chang'an.

In his eyes, this is still a very tacit cooperation between Liu Bei and Liu Xie, and the court is willing to cooperate... Or rather, the court and that His Majesty believed in General Zuo.

For this feeling, Xu Shu can't say that it's not good, of course, it's not bad, if he is put on the identity of General Zuo Liu Xuande's staff, maybe Xu Shu will find a way to slowly peel off this relationship.

Can....

"Well, now I'm not General Zuo's staff and strategists, but just follow Xiehe here to take a look at the heroes of the world.

Today... I can't say anything more. ”

Xu Shu suddenly smiled bitterly and shook his head, which made Shi Tao on the side slightly stunned, and then smiled helplessly.

After all.... Xu Shu still can't say his identity, he Shi Tao didn't even fancy Liu Xuande at all!

As Shi Tao, who is known for his prudence and stability, his greatest possibility is to find the most secure lord, regardless of what kind of position he can stabilize.

What he wants... Stable!

In short, he is a standard talent, but he believes in that sentence even more, I would rather be a Wenjing dog than a filial martial artist!

It's not that he doesn't look down on the filial piety emperor of the Han Dynasty, but... Unstable.

Even if with his talent, he was able to achieve a higher position during the period of Emperor Xiaowu, but half of them might die.

It's not going to work....

This is probably Shi Tao's idea.

As for Zhuge Kongming on the other side... He chuckled directly, and he was quite comfortable waving the goose feather white feather fan in his hand.

This white feather fan was made by Liu Xie with the feathers of his own goose, and then his wife thought it was too ugly, so she improved it and gave it to him.

At that time, it was quite in line with his temperament.

Outside Anyi City, Hedong County, Du Ji has been waiting for a long time, and his purpose is naturally to welcome His Majesty who came from afar.

Of course, what surprised Du Ji before that was...

"Then Chang'an's army has also arrived? Is it that fast? ”

It is said that the main general Liu Ye went day and night, and General Zhang Ji took General Li Feng Ma Dai to Hangu Pass to replace Zhang Xiu.

And Liu Ye came first with Ma Teng and his generals..."

"Is this a rush to meet Your Majesty?" After Du Ji heard this, he probably understood what the other party was thinking, and he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart.

"I have heard for a long time that Liu Ziyang is extremely resourceful, but he likes to speculate too much.

Now a look.... That's true. ”
