Three Kingdoms: Cao Ying's mastermind, from nine to five

Chapter 117 Where can't a real man go?What are you doing here? !

"Yuan Shu still has letters?"

Zhou Yu immediately approached with a smile on his face.

I came to Sun Ce to take a closer look, and after just a few glances, I burst out laughing, "Hahahaha!!"

"Yuan Gonglu is worthy of being the eldest son of the Yuan family. He is indeed noble. Under such circumstances, he can still order Bofu to send troops to help him. He will be named a general in the future."

"It's better for Bofu to abandon his career in Jiangdong and go to Yuan Shu, so he can become a general directly."

Sun Ce pursed his lips and smiled, put the letter on the case, and said to Zhou Yu, "Gong Jin really thinks so?"

"That's right," Zhou Yu's smile remained on his face, but he looked deeply at Sun Ce, and said after a while, "If that's the case, Yuan Shu will rest assured and wait for Bo Fu's reinforcements."

"When our army arrives, we can attack from Danyang, occupy the south of Huainan, and fight across the river. If we can occupy Hefei and other places, it will be of great benefit in the future."

"The places near Hefei, such as Xiaoyaojin and Lufengjin, allow our army to advance and retreat freely and occupy the danger of the river. But if we have not obtained these ferries, it may not be so easy to come out from Jiangdong in the future."

When Zhou Yu said this, his complexion calmed down.

He is straightforward and active, so when he speaks, he is very emotional and full of confidence. He has a deep understanding of the terrain near Danyang and Jiangdong.

Someone once said that the so-called advantageous location in Jiangdong probably lies in Zhou Gongjin.

Gongjin's wisdom has been demonstrated since he was a child, and his ability to lead the army has been accumulated as early as the age of 14. Probably because his family is a famous family, he followed his uncle at the age of 14 and took command of the Danyang Navy.

This demeanor like the leader of a pack of wolves, of course, has been cultivated since childhood, and he has a demeanor that makes people look at him everywhere.

"Um……"

Sun Ce was secretly delighted. Hearing this remark, he felt that it was quite fruitful, and he also understood that Zhou Yu's ambition was of course not in Jiangdong's tiny place.

In the future, going out of Jiangdong is nothing more than two difficulties, one is Huainan in the north, and the other is Jingzhou, both of which must be cleared by sailors.

The plan is very long term.

"Okay, okay, Gong Jin can come up with a plan in an instant, and he deserves to be the top talent in Jiangzuo."

"Hehehe!" Zhou Yu burst into laughter undisguised by this praise, but patted Sun Ce's shoulder and said affectionately: "But I understand that Bofu must not act like this."

"That's right!" Sun Ce folded his hands behind his back, poised his chest high, and immediately said in a deep voice, "This plan will inevitably make me a villain repeatedly between Emperor Xudu and Shouchun Yuanshu."

"It is unacceptable. Yuan Shu must attack. This person has usurped the Han Dynasty. The biggest help for me is to let the nobles in the territory work together to fight the thieves with me!"

"Hmm! That's exactly the reason!" Zhou Yu excitedly walked a few steps to Sun Ce when he heard this, and held his hand and patted him continuously.

He said solemnly: "Yuan Shu's move can calm down the hearts of the originally turbulent gentry, and fight against foreign countries with us."

"Instead, I would like to thank him."

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

"Oh? Why did Gong Jin say this?"

"Lujiang's land achievements are gradually declining. At that time, Yuan Shu was a tyrant. He was lying on one side, as if lying on a couch. Yuan Shu was sure to plot."

Lujiang is just to the left of Huainan, bordering the two places. Over the years, prefect Lu Ji and Yuan Shu have gradually become friends, and the purpose is to maintain the relationship between the two.

Some compromise.

At this moment Yuan Shu presumptuously, it is impossible for Lu Ji to rebel along with him, and even because of the neighbors, he has to make a decision as soon as possible.

If Sun Ce went to attack, he would be able to defeat his army as soon as possible.

"Yuan Shu's plan will cause Lujiang to panic. We may intervene to make the whole territory surrender as soon as possible."

"Also, if you threaten Yuan Shu from the south and make meritorious service for the Emperor of Han, it is also considered an imperial edict, but since we march like this, we will definitely make the Emperor win."

"You can't fight passively."

Sun Ce nodded in agreement.

Indeed, only by defeating Yuan Shu can we stabilize our achievements and ask the emperor for titles and official positions, so that we can truly suppress these Jiangdong gentry.

"Okay, according to Gongjin's words!"

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

"Okay, so send troops as soon as possible! Bo Fu and give the order as soon as possible!"

Zhou Yu became interested immediately after hearing this.

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

"The great cause should not be neglected by playing around! The opportunity is fleeting, Bo Fu quickly give orders!" Zhou Yu said with high spirits, heroic appearance and bright eyes.

The two rushed out the door quickly, leaving the camp to deliver the order.

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

……

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

Xu Chu found this place with the caravan. There is really Wo Niu Mountain near Guanzhuang, and there are really bandits on the mountain.

In these years, he had never robbed a caravan nearby. When Xu Chu asked about it, he was really surprised.

And his elder brother was exceptionally curious.

At this moment, after several days, many people asked for directions, and they knew the way into the mountain, so they were able to come and see.

"Brother, does the Lord really have the ability to foretell? This group of bandits has just occupied Wo Niu Mountain."

"Haha, Zhongkang, don't you know that you follow the princes and guards around you? But you come to ask me, or you and I change duties? You come to train day and night, and I go to guard the princes?"

"No change, no change," Xu Chu shook his head immediately, "I'm just amazed, but the bandits on Wo Niu Mountain didn't take over early, and they didn't belong to Zhang Yan in Montenegro. Instead, they seemed to be supported by people from Guanzhuang."

"I heard before that they even guarded passing caravans in order to earn commissions. They are not bandits at all."

"Well, if there is really someone the lord is looking for, just go and ask. If not, let's go back and report back soon."

"Eh, good."

Xu Chu led the caravan into the small road, and after a while, they arrived at the rocky place. The road gradually narrowed, and only one or two people could pass by.

So Xu Chu walked quickly ahead with a broadsword in hand, letting the brothers behind him line up and pass by, waiting for the caravan's horses outside the road, and then they probed inward.

This place is in the mountains, and this road has already determined the terrain. It is impossible for a large army to pass by without detection. As long as you get here, the bandits in the mountains should be aware of it and then respond.

really.

Just as Xu Chu and three or four guards passed by, many people suddenly appeared from the woods on the hills on both sides. They pointed their bows and arrows at him, and some of them looked quite fierce.

The leader wears a tiger fur cap, has scars on his face, dark skin and strong arms.

At this moment, Xu Chu stopped in his tracks, and Su Wei's heart tightened behind him, and he looked at both sides with great vigilance.

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

"Everyone, there is no need to be like this. We are not officers and soldiers who are suppressing bandits, so we will not use swords."

"Brother, we can't believe what you say."

The man in the tiger fur hat said immediately.

"I heard that brothers have been asking me about the bandits in Woniu Mountain all the way. Why?"

"I have just arrived here, and I have never had any problems with my brothers. If we want to explore the way first, and then lead the army to attack, wouldn't we have nowhere to go? It is a troubled time now, and please brother, please come and see me You can go here on the top of the mountain, and you can't go further."

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

"There are still three gates and six strongholds from now on, and they are all on guard. They are thieves and bandits, and there is no way to welcome guests. Why don't you retreat, brother?"

This bandit is reasonable, judging by Xu Chu's size, he is probably not an ordinary young general, but this man is quite heroic and generous, and he is not easy to make enemies.

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

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

In fact, behind the slope, there are no three passes and six villages, and you can see the gate of the mountain after bypassing a narrow road about three miles away.

This was said so that Xu Chuneng would not continue to pester her.

At this time, Xu Chu smiled slightly, and glanced left and right at these people with bows and arrows, and was ready to retreat at any time, but he still said: "Woniushan, there is a person named Zhao Yun."

"It's my lord's old acquaintance. If there is any, you just go and invite them, and I will invite them to meet each other."

"If not, I will leave, but please don't stop me. This is the friendship between my master and Zhao Yun in the past, and my master has clearly stated that the two come from the same source. I am afraid that the teacher is Tong Yuan, the spear king."

"You don't need to be entangled in your heart, and call someone to report, whether there is such a person or not, come back and tell me, and I will leave."

"In troubled times, you are not harming the people. Instead, you are helping the people. You make a living by guarding the caravan. This time I am here to follow the caravan, so I have never been in trouble."

"But if you deceive me, you will never give up in the future."

"Hmph! Just wait!"

Hearing this, the man in the tiger-skin fleece hat couldn't believe it, he was amazed at the fact that the man saw so many bows and arrows aimed at him, and there was no fear on his face.

This shows that he is either very skilled in martial arts, has extremely high confidence in his skills, and can withdraw at any time.

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

As a gesture, he raised his left hand, and immediately half of the bandits put down their bows and arrows, then clasped their fists at Xu Chu and said, "General, please wait a moment. I'll go and ask if there is such a person in the cottage."

He didn't finish his sentence, and when he saw Xu Chu nodding, he immediately turned around and ran back, quickly disappearing from everyone's sight.

Seeing this, Xu Chu calmed down a little.

Sure enough, here it is.

I don't know who it is, who can get the king's concern so much, but suddenly come looking for it after so many years, and it just so happens that this group of bandits has been entrenched here not long ago.

It counts as dead.

The ability to predict the prophet is also unknown.

Xu Chu didn't care about the bows and arrows around him, but stood proudly, waiting for the person who informed him.

Not long after, a white horse suddenly came from a distance, and the person it brought was a young Confucian general in a white robe, with beautiful features, red lips and white teeth, and a not-so-burly figure.

But at first glance, it is a strong, tall and straight temperament, holding a long spear, following behind, dismounting directly before and after, and striding forward.

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

The young man didn't wear a helmet, nor did he have a crown on his head. He just tied his long hair behind his head and swayed it in a ponytail.

It is really rich and handsome, quite a bit of a gentleman's demeanor.

He didn't really know him back then, this man didn't look like a brave fighter, the spear in his hand seemed to have been used for a long time, and the cloth that bound him had turned yellow.

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

Zhao Yun came out in front of Xu Chu, his expression was serious and not angry, and he was also a man of heroic demeanor.

Xu Chu smiled and said, "My servant, Xu Chu from Runan."

"The word Zhongkang."

"My lord's name is Xu Zhen, and his courtesy name is Bowen. Now he is the prefect of Chenliu, and he 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 covered his face, why do you say it's an old acquaintance?"

Xu Chu thought for a while, and said: "Uh... what kind of bird is the marksmanship of my lord... He told me that if we meet and ask, I will say that this origin is related to the spear king Tong Yuan."

"impossible."

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

After teaching my master, he has disappeared, and now he doesn't even know his life or death, and he may live in seclusion somewhere to avoid the world.

Did you lie to me?

When I was studying art, my master was not that kind of person either.

Could it be my senior brother?But never heard him mention it.

"What the general said...is it true?" Zhao Yun is not a very defensive person, on the contrary, he is quite kind, but he is brave in battle and tends to be a refined general.

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

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

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

Liu Yu, Liu Bei, and Liu Biao, these clansmen of the Han Dynasty are famous, and they love the people like their own sons, which has been spread far and wide.

However, the name of Xu Zhen is also spread along with the caravans and exiled people everywhere, which is even more admirable.

So Zhao Yun half believed it.

"Of course it's true. Also, this money was given to you by my lord." Xu Chu took out the kit bag from his arms, threw it to him from a distance, and said, "It's for your sister-in-law. with my nephew."

"A few years ago, I learned that your elder brother passed away due to illness, and the prince was marching and fighting, so he couldn't go, so it was regarded as consolation."

"I still know about my elder brother...this prince..."

Zhao Yun thought about it carefully. The people he has known all these years are the nobles he met on the way of being a knight-errant. Is there anyone with the surname Xu? !

After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't remember it, and immediately became more and more curious, who is Xu Bowen and really knows me? !
Or know my brother? !
Otherwise, why do you know my origin so much, and know that I came to look for it in Wo Niu Mountain.

"Your Excellency, whether to go or not, give me an accurate word, so that I can go back and report."

Xu Chu stood up and raised his hands, clasped his fists slightly, his expression was rather displeased, he had already made it so clear, it's fine if he doesn't go, why bother to be so humble.

"Hehe!" Zhao Yun suddenly smiled calmly, clasped his fists together and said, "Since the general is so magnanimous, that Zilong will give it a try."

"The general will follow me back to the village to stay overnight. Tonight, I will have a drink with me. If the general is willing to come, I will follow."

"Walk."

Xu Chu resolutely stepped forward, walked straight up to Zhao Yun, and said in a deep voice, "Where in the world is a man not allowed to go, why bother to look forward and backward? If Your Excellency invites you, I certainly have no fear of entering the village."

"If I go to the cottage, not only do I want to drink with you, but also please show me the so-called marksmanship of the same Yuan as my lord." Xu Chu is also a stubborn person, although he is proud but has a big temper. Difficult please go.

Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment, and his affection for Xu Chu immediately increased, and he immediately bowed his hands to invite him, smiling up at the corner of his mouth and saying, "Very good, the general is open-minded, please!"
