After attending the annual meeting organized by Yuanbiao, Yuan Qi walked towards Wancheng with his subordinates. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Prior to this, Yuan Qi was worried that Yuan Biao and Huang Zu would embarrass the Qilin Battalion warriors who were born as water thieves, and in order to avoid unnecessary conflicts, he had already asked Zhao Hu and Su Fei to return to Wancheng with more than 800 Qilin Camp warriors first, and now only Huang Yong and Gan Jing and twenty Tiangui elites followed.

Recalling that at the annual meeting, a group of Jingzhou officials led by Yuan Biao saw the scene when Gan Jing called himself the main prince, Yuan Qi couldn't help but laugh again. No one expected that Yuan Qi would be able to subdue Gan Jing within 10 days, who was Gan Jing? That was the famous Jinfan thief! Officials in various parts of Jingzhou hated and feared Gan Jing, but they were helpless. Even Yuan Biao was stunned for a long time before he reacted, and praised Yuan Qi for daring to skip others.

"Haha, it's really relieving, when a certain person was on an errand under these birdmen, he was completely relieved. Obviously, Gan Jing also recalled the scene at the annual meeting, and her tone was quite cheerful.

Yuan Qi shook his head and said: "Xingba, although we are happy this time, but the guards of all places against us have become heavier, and we have to be more careful in the future." But then again, the eldest husband was born in the world, and he has to do it when it's time to make a move."

Gan Jing nodded her head, and said with a smile: "That's right, it's this reason, or the lord's opinion." ”

While the two were talking and laughing, Huang Yong rode over and said to Yuan Qi with a depressed face: "General, now that General Gan's matter is over, it's time to go back to Changsha." I came to bid farewell to the general. ”

The originally good mood was destroyed by Huang Yong's farewell. Yuan Qi looked at Huang Yong and asked, "Does General Huang have to go back to Changsha?"

Huang Yong said bitterly: "I really want to follow the general and fight side by side with the general." It's just that, after all, he is a general in Changsha, and he still has to return to Changsha after all. ”

Yuan Qi said distressedly: "It's better for Huang Yong to follow someone for the time being, and wait for a certain person to ask the saint to transfer Huang Yong to a certain command, how about it?"

Huang Yong smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Why should the general deceive himself, the edict of the Son of Heaven will take a month to come and go, if you follow the general, it is the crime of leaving your post without permission, and if you don't return to Changsha for a month, Han Taishou is afraid that she will not agree, and this is also unreasonable." ”

Just when Yuan Qi and others were in a dilemma, a loud long song came: "Heaven and earth are repeated, and they are on fire; There are virtuous people in the valley, who want to vote for the Lord, and the Lord seeks to be virtuous, but they don't know me. ”

Yuan Qi was moved by the singing, and he heard the confusion of the singer who was full of ambition but had nowhere to perform, and looked towards the source of the voice. A man under thirty years of age, dressed as a scribe, walked slowly from behind the hillside.

Yuan Qi turned over and dismounted, and greeted the visitor: "Sir, please stay!" When I heard Mr. singing, I was quite touched in my heart, so I didn't take the liberty to come to talk about it. ”

The person who came held his head high, looked domineering, and asked Yuan Qi with slanted eyes: "Who are you?"

Yuan Qi didn't feel unhappy, but arched his hand and said: "Xiao Ke's name is not enough to worry about, and I haven't asked Mr. for his name." ”

The man continued to squint, not even looking at Yuan Qi, and snorted coldly and said, "Hidden head rat generation, you also deserve to ask a certain name!"

Yuan Qi rubbed his hands awkwardly, and was saying some kind words to ease the atmosphere, but Gan Jing and Huang Yong on the side quit, Yuan Qi was a person they respected very much, but they were humiliated by people one after another, how could they not be angry?

At that moment, Gan Jing held two guns in his hands, and Huang Yong lifted the big knife upside down and walked towards the man together.

The man saw Gan Jing and Huang Yong's movements, and sneered: "Why, if you are snubbed, you will use force?"

Yuan Qi turned his head and saw Gan Jing and Huang Yong coming over with weapons, and hurriedly shouted: "Stop! Take another step forward, military law will be engaged!"

Gan Jing and Huang Yong heard Yuan Qi's shouting, and stopped helplessly, and the two of them looked at the man's four eyes, spewing endless anger, if the eyes could kill, this scribe was afraid that he had been killed by them several times.

Turning around, Yuan Qi bowed his hand to the scribe again, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, a certain discipline is not strict, which frightened Mr." ”

The scribe suddenly raised his head to the sky and let out a long laugh, and after laughing, his eyes stopped squinting, and the coldness on his face disappeared, and he changed from a domineering literati to an elegant Confucian scholar.

Yuan Qi, Gan Jing and Huang Yong watched the scribe's transformation in surprise, and their hearts were all amazed at how quickly the scribe changed his face.

The scribe bowed to Yuan Qi and said, "Yingchuan Xu Shu, meet Yuan Hussar." I deliberately pretended to be rude to test the general before, please forgive the general. ”

"Are you Xu Shu Xu Yuanzhi?" asked Yuan Qi in surprise.

Xu Shu saluted again and said, "Exactly." A few days ago, Kong Ming begged a certain person to come to help the general, but a certain person couldn't stand his stalking, so he came to meet the general. ”

Yuan Qi smiled: "So, Yuan Zhi didn't want to come in the first place, that's why he had the temptation just now?"

Xu Shu also smiled and said, "Yes and no." The meaning of temptation, in addition to a certain heart, also wants to see if the hero that Kong Ming admires is a real hero. ”

Yuan Qi's mind flashed the figure of Zhuge Liang, and asked Xu Shu with a smile: "How is Kong Ming lately?"

After Xu Shu saw that Yuan Qi knew the inside story, the first thing he did was not to solicit himself, but to ask Zhuge Liang about his daily life first, which shows that Yuan Qi is a monarch who values affection and righteousness, and his affirmation of Yuan Qi in his heart is deeper.

"He's good. ”

Yuan Qi nodded lightly, "Hmm." The scene of chatting with Zhuge Liang and falling asleep reverberated in Yuan Qi's mind.

After thinking about it for a while, Yuan Qi suddenly woke up and said to Xu Shu apologetically: "I was distracted just now and snubbed Mr. ”

Xu Shu smiled disapprenosingly: "As the lord of the people, he attaches so much importance to friendship, and the lord is really a man of temperament." ”

Yuan Qi's eyes widened, and he said in surprise: "Yuan Zhi means ......"

Xu Shu put away his smile and respectfully saluted Yuan Qi and said, "Xu Shu pays a visit to the lord." ”

Huang Yong and Gan Jing glanced at each other and couldn't help laughing, they never expected that the person who was going to kill just now would become their colleagues in the blink of an eye.

Yuan Qi took Xu Shu's hand and said sincerely: "Yuan Zhi, you came too timely, and now there is something I want you to help someone come up with." Saying that, Yuan Qi told Huang Yong about going back to Changsha.

Xu Shu lowered his head and thought for a while, and then said: "Lord, this matter is also easy to do, Changsha is too shou Han Xuan is greedy for money and lustful, and the lord only needs to use grain, grass, money and silk to open up the joints." However, General Huang Yong is a general in Changsha, and with Han Xuan's character, I am afraid that the lion will open his mouth. ”

Yuan Qi said excitedly: "Yuan Zhi is really timely rain, he has made such a great achievement when he first arrived! If he can keep Huang Yong, let alone property, it is worth exchanging Wancheng for it!"

In a word, the people present were moved, for the sake of a general, they were willing to exchange a big city for it, which is not a big deal that ordinary people can make!

At that moment, the group turned the horse's head and intercepted Han Xuan, who was going back to Changsha, outside Xiangyang City, after Yuan Qi explained his intentions, Han Xuan opened his mouth and asked for a million dollars, and after Xu Shu's bargaining, the final price was set at 600,000. Yuan Qi and Han Xuan reached an agreement, Huang Yong will follow Yuan Qi in the future, and after Yuan Qi returned to Wancheng, he sent someone to send Han Xuan 600,000 yuan. Both sides rejoiced.

After solving Huang Yong's matter, the group quickly returned to Wancheng. But as soon as he returned to Wancheng, Zhao Hu sent an explosive news!

"Senior brother, there was a rebellion in Youzhou, and Brother Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun proclaimed themselves the Son of Heaven and the Great General, and gathered 300,000 people to rebel in Yuyang. ”

Yuan Qi was shocked by this news, and hurriedly asked, "How is a certain father?

Zhao Hu took out the letter written by Xun Luo and handed it to Yuan Qi, and said: "Mr. Xun's letter is clearly written, Lord Zhou Mu led the army to fight with Erzhang, and there were victories and defeats for each other. Now Youzhou has fallen into a great chaos, Gongsun Chou, the captain of the Thorn Tower, Yuyang Taishou Yuanzheng, and Liaodong Taishou Yang Chong have all been killed by Erzhang; the reinforcements sent by the imperial court have been annihilated by Erzhang's entire army, and the leading general Meng Yi has been killed; Liaoxi Taishou Gongsun Ruyun has been besieged and is already in danger; what is even more hateful is that the king of Thorn Tower Meng once again betrayed his word and sent 50,000 troops to help Erzhang. ”

Listening to Zhao Hu's narration, and quickly reading the letter written by Xun Luo, Yuan Qi's heart suddenly cooled half, according to the development of this trend, I am afraid that Youzhou will not be able to keep it, it is his own foundation!

Just when Yuan Qi was at a loss, a sergeant dressed as the Imperial Forest Army staggered into the hall, still holding the edict of the Son of Heaven in his hand. After seeing Yuan Qi, the Imperial Forest Army gasped and said to Yuan Qi: "Hussar General, the edict of the Son of Heaven is here, summoning the army to rush to Youzhou to quell the rebellion. With that, he rolled his eyes and fell to the ground.

Huang Yong walked over quickly to check it, then shook his head and sighed, and said in a low voice: "This person has been working hard all the way, and he is exhausted, resulting in overwork, and I am afraid that he will be hopeless." ”

Yuan Qi clenched his fists, slammed a punch on the table, and said angrily: "Zhang Ju Zhang Chun stabbed King Tameng, you are looking for death! Carry this Royal Forest Army brother down for a thick burial, and then gather people and horses, raise the tent and count the troops!"

Three moments later, more than 30,000 soldiers in Wancheng gathered in front of the general platform, waiting for Yuan Qi's lecture.

"Brothers, you are all elite soldiers under the command of Ben Hou, now Zhang Ju Zhang Chun rebelled in Yuyang, and the King of Thorn Ta Meng once again betrayed his promise and invaded my Yuan Clan's frontier, at this time of internal and external troubles, Ben Hou only asks you one sentence, where should I go?"

More than 30,000 sergeants shouted in unison: "Those who offend my Youzhou will be punished even if they are far away!"

Yuan Qi clenched his right fist, struck hard in the air, and said loudly: "Yes! Those who offend me in Youzhou will be punished even if they are far away! Polishing your swords and guns, we will go out tomorrow and behead Erzhang and King Meng!"

Early in the morning of the second day, Yuan Qi's army embarked on a journey against the rising sun. Ma Yue and Pang De led 5,000 cavalry as the vanguard; Huang Yong led 5,000 infantry troops to escort grain and grass in the rear; Gan Jing and Su Fei took the elite of the 800 Qilin battalion and the 2,000 sailors who had just been reorganized, and went straight to Liaodong by water; Yuan Qi led 20,000 troops as the Chinese army, and Zhao Hu led the elite of the 500 days to return to the camp to guard Yuan Qi's side at any time, and at the same time, Ma Dai and other military generals Wei Yan were the leaders, and Xu Shu and other civilian officials and strategists were led by Lu Su, following Yuan Qi and jointly guarding the Chinese army.

Fortunately, Yuan Qi transferred Xiahou Ruo from Beiping before and brought all the things in the treasure back to Beiping, otherwise he might really be caught off guard, those sophisticated equipment and treasures are all necessities that Yuan Qi used to train elite soldiers.

As for the treasures in the treasury of Wancheng, Yuan Qi only brought two months' food and salary for the army, and the rest were all sealed and left for the next Nanyang Taishou. Before leaving, Yuan Qi hadn't forgotten it, and sent someone to send Han Xuan 600,000 yuan, of course, this money was taken from the Taishi Chamber of Commerce, and Yuan Qi would not do anything about public and private affairs.

However, because he was too concerned about the war in Youzhou, Yuan Qi forgot one thing. In history, the next Nanyang Taishou is the arrogant Yuan Bai, if Yuan Qi knew that Yuan Bai was coming to Nanyang, he would definitely not have left so much money and food.

Later, Yuan Bai used the money and grain left by Yuan Qi in Nanyang to recruit troops and buy horses, and became a veritable prince, and even defied the disapproval of the world and established himself as the emperor, but in the end Yuan Bai still died in the hands of Yuan Qi, I have to say that it was karma, these are all later words.
