Han Shimou

Chapter 369 Yuan Shao's Letter

In the next few days, Yuan Shao repeatedly launched strong attacks. Liu Bei insisted on taking advantage of the bravery of his three generals, Pan, Zhang, and Hua, to fight against him. All the soldiers are brave and good at fighting.Therefore, although Yuan Shao had many generals, he was forced to stay in Wei County, and Liu Bei and Qu Yi stopped their invasion of Jizhou.

Yuan Shao saw that he and Liu Bei were in a stalemate, and the military rations were reduced, and he was worried, so he consulted with Tian Feng.In this regard, Tian Feng was also helpless. Yuan Shao attacked Jizhou, showing his ambitions. Everyone in the neighboring princes was in danger, so how could he help.However, Guo Tu proposed to borrow grain from Hedong. After the implementation of farming in Hedong, he had accumulated a lot of grain and grass.

Although Yuan Shao had old grievances with Wen Han, the shortage of food and grass was imminent, and he had to let go of his previous high profile.He also asked Guo Tu who was suitable.Guo Tu also suggested that Zhao Yun's master, Tong Yuan, and Wen Han's grandfather, the horse trainer, were good friends, and it would be most appropriate to send him there.

After hearing this, Yuan Shao thought for a while, followed Guo Tu's plan, and sent Zhao Yun to lead a team of 100 people to Hedong to borrow food.

However, it is said that Hedong is preparing for the conquest of Baibo bandits in Bingzhou. , Just wait for the day when you leave the army.

In the prefect's mansion, Wen Han is trying on the new war robe that Cai Yan sewed for him. Cai Yan is full of happiness and satisfaction when he sees Wen Han's heroic appearance after putting on the war robe.

"Cough cough."

Wen Han held Cai Yan in his arms, and was about to say some sweet words, but Xi Long coughed a few times outside the door. Suddenly Wen Han rolled his eyes, and after giving Cai Yan an apologetic look, Cai Yan Blushing all over his face, he smiled lightly at Wen Han, indicating that Wen Han should get down to business first.

"Xi Zhicai, you'd better have something urgent, otherwise I won't be able to spare you."

"My lord, this new battle robe is gorgeous yet majestic. It seems that it must have come from the hands of my wife. My lord, getting this lady is really a blessing that I have cultivated in three lifetimes."

"Okay, put your suit away. What's the matter?"

Suddenly, Xi Long put away his smile and his face darkened.

"My lord, Yuan Shao sent someone over."

"Yuan Shao? Didn't he always look down on me, a humble family member? It's surprising that he would send someone here. Zhicai, what do you think he wants to do?"

"I heard that Yuan Benchu's [-] troops were blocked by Liu Bei and the [-] troops of Jizhou General Qu Yi in Wei County, and they are still at loggerheads. With so many soldiers, Yuan Benchu's daily consumption of food and grass must be one year. An astonishing number. If my guess is correct, he must want to borrow food."

"Hmph! It's really wishful thinking!! Ever since I met Yuan Benchu, he has been trying to kill me many times. If it weren't for the war ahead, I might go to capture Hanoi and avenge the old grudges. He still wants me to borrow food Give it to him, help him achieve power? Does he really think that I, Wen Bufan, am a fool?"

"However, the lord might as well meet with the people he sent to see what kind of medicine is sold in Yuan Benchu's gourd. He also knows that the lord hates him, but he still sends people to borrow food, and he must be sure."

"not see!"

Wen Han frowned, thinking of Yuan Shao's repeated attempts to put him to death in the past, his stomach full of ignorant karma, he flung his sleeves and left.

Xi Long raised his eyebrows, but Wen Han didn't see him, so he couldn't persuade him anymore, and then he thought about what Yuan Shao wanted to pay in exchange for the food in Hedong.

After a while, Xilong's eyes lit up as if thinking of something, and after muttering a few words, he left.Afterwards, Xilong sent someone to inform Zhao Yun that Wen Han was unwell and asked Zhao Yun to stay for a few more days.

Zhao Yunjian frowned, and then he understood that Wen Han and Yuan Shao's old grievances, Zhao Yun had heard a lot when he was under Yuan Shao's command, and of course he didn't hear them all. Discord.

Seeing that he was free at the moment, Zhao Yun left the post and wandered around Anyi City.As Zhao Yun walked all the way, he saw the heavy traffic in the city of Anyi, and the people passing by had happy and satisfied smiles on their faces, and the city was full of joy and excitement.Sighing again and again in his heart, he asked an old man why the city of Anyi was so happy, it didn't seem to be in troubled times at all.

The old man told me that since Wen Han became the prefect of Hedong and seized the power of the wealthy bureaucrats in Hedong, he has greatly reduced taxes, and then Zhang Hong, the chief minister under his command, is also a strict and fair person who strictly controls the integrity of officials. , Even if it is a thread, he must be punished heavily, ranging from dismissal from office to being expelled from Hedong.

Afterwards, Wenhan joined forces with the Hedong Wei family and the wealthy merchants in Hedong to focus on business development, and then took the lead in curbing the rise in prices. The prices in Hedong can be said to be the cheapest among all states and counties in the world.

At the same time, what pleased the old man the most was the implementation of Tuntian.Since the implementation of tuntian, every household in Hedong has arable land and has a lot of income every year.Moreover, the old man's son also served as a general of 100 men in the Wenhan Army, and the salary in the Wenhan Army was very high. Willing to send his son into the army.

The old man was a talker, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he pulled Zhao Yun to talk non-stop, and later he talked about what he heard from his son, the promotion system in the Wenhan Army.It is said that in the Hedong Army, regardless of status, regardless of family background, there is no nepotism, as long as you have meritorious service, you will be rewarded, and the system is clear.Everything is based on personal strength, qualifications, record, and experience.In other words, as long as you have the ability and survive in the Hedong Army, you will definitely get a high job.

The old man laughed and talked about his son again. He told Zhao Yun that his son might be promoted to captain next year.The old man's eyes glowed with hope and beauty.After hearing this, several old men at the side also came over one after another, talking about their sons, and even comparing them.

Looking at the old men, Zhao Yun felt a huge wave in his heart. If it is true what the old man said just now, then Hedong is really a paradise on earth in today's troubled times. A real longing.

Zhao Yun was thinking with his head down, and before he knew it, all the old men around him had left.The sky was a little dim, and a small river and a small boat passed by, and the boatman was singing an unknown song.

Suddenly, five men dressed furtively and wearing straw hats and black gauze walked towards Zhao Yun in a hurry.Zhao Yun was still thinking about the matter without realizing it. When those big men passed by Zhao Yun, a certain big man with triangular eyes bumped into Zhao Yun. The muscles of Zhao Yun and other people were like steel. After a few steps, there was a bang, and the hidden knife fell down.

"Stinky boy! You don't have eyes, you are looking for death!!"

The big man with triangular eyes quickly picked up the knife on the ground, and his vicious look suddenly appeared, as if he wanted to cut Zhao Yun.Zhao Yun squinted his sharp eyes, and a torrential momentum surged, like a thousand-foot-thousand-foot wave hitting the big man with triangular eyes.

"Erzhuzi, stop!!"

The big man named Er Zhuzi took a step back in fright, just in time to rush over with one of his companions, and snatched Er Zhuzi's knife.Then he gave him another hard look.

"This hero, my brother didn't know what to do and offended you. I apologize to you here. I also hope that there will be a lot of heroes and bypass his recklessness."

The big man who spoke had the demeanor of a leader. Seeing Zhao Yun's extraordinary demeanor and the frightening edge exuding from his whole body, he knew that he must be no ordinary person.But the big man and his group still have important things to do, if they offend Zhao Yun, they are afraid that their important things will be ruined.

Zhao Yun put away the momentum from his body, stared at these big men coldly for a while, and then waved his hands casually without saying a word.

After the big man saluted Zhao Yun, he led the people away.Seeing that these people were moving furtively and armed with weapons, Zhao Yun must have done something shady, so he followed them covertly.

"Brother, why do you have to make amends to that yellow-haired kid? If it were in Bingzhou, I would have to goug out his arrogant dog eyes."

The burly man named Erzhuzi had seyin-like eyes, thinking of Zhao Yun's terrifying and sharp eyes just now, his heart still couldn't stop jumping.

"Two pillars! Let me remind you that we have great responsibilities on our shoulders. Celestial Master Guo has urged us not to cause trouble in the east of the river, and we must put the matter assigned by Tianshi Guo first in everything. As long as that girl Zhou Yuhan is caught, let Wen Wen Don't be afraid to throw a mouse, he will never dare to attack Bingzhou again."

"Brother, is this reliable? Just a single girl can make Wen Bufan cast a trap and give up the whole Bingzhou?"

"Hmph, there is a reason for the Heavenly Master's order. However, I have also heard that Wen Bufan is a man of sentimentality, and he cares most about the people around him. Zhou Yuhan is an orphan he adopted among the refugees in his early years. When Bufan was still in Luoyang, he almost died trying to save her. Later, this orphan was adopted by Wen Bufan's elder brother Zhou Long as a foster daughter. Wen Bufan and his elder brother regarded her as the apple of their eye and loved her very much."

"Zhou Yuhan is really lucky this week. Hehe, but her good luck ends here. Before I came, I heard from such a wealthy family in Hedong that although Zhou Yuhan was only sixteen years old, she was stunningly beautiful and as beautiful as a flower. I don't know how many young masters in Hedong are obsessed with her and regard her as the treasure of Hedong. After we catch her, we will definitely try it out. Of course, only big brothers are eligible to get her virgin."

"Er Zhuzi, put away your lust! Zhou Yuhan's matter is very important, and before Tianshi Guo makes a decision, no one can touch her hair. Otherwise, don't blame me for being merciless!!"

Er Zhuzi, whom he called his big brother, yelled at him with saliva all over his face. Seeing that his big brother was really angry, Er Zhuzi didn't dare to be presumptuous any more, shut his mouth, and followed his big brother for a quick walk all the way.

Zhao Yun followed behind them, faintly heard their conversation, probably knew that they were going to harm a woman, his face became a little cold, and he followed closely.

After a while, these people came into contact with a few people who were dressed gorgeously, and they knew that they were either rich or expensive.After talking with these people for a while, several big men turned into a corner.

Zhao Yun followed them all the way, followed them to the back door of Taoist temple, and then walked into Taoist temple sneakily.Zhao Yun frowned, and after waiting for a while, he jumped into the Taoist temple against the wall.

Zhao Yun was as light as a swallow, and just as he landed, he heard a mess of fighting sounds coming from the Taoist temple, followed by countless screams and panicked footsteps.After a while, there was a grinning sound.

"Hey! Girl, you'd better be more sensible, otherwise, if the uncle hurts your delicate body later, don't blame the uncle for not being sympathetic!"

At this time, Zhou Yuhan was surrounded by several big men with knives. She originally came to the Taoist temple today to pray for Wenhan who was about to go to Bingzhou.But I didn't expect that I would suffer from the wicked.As soon as these villains rushed in, they killed several guards protecting Zhou Yuhan.

"Why do you kill people? They are all innocent!!"

Zhou Yuhan didn't show fear in the face of the blades that were shining with cold light, but showed sadness for the dead guards.

"Hehehe. What a kind girl, she still has the mind to take care of these dead people."

Erzhuzi grinned grimly again, holding a knife and trying to grab Zhou Yuhan.Zhou Yuhan stepped back a few steps and leaned against the wall. Seeing that the big man was about to approach, his face showed a determined look.

"Why are you arresting me!?"

Seeing that Zhou Yuhan had nowhere to retreat, Erzhuzi's smirk grew even wider. Hearing her delicate yelling and asking, his pair of triangular eyes made Yindang looks again and again, as if he wanted to take Zhou Yuhan's whole body off Zhou Guang.
