On the vast wilderness, horses flew over, and a group of six riders galloped across the board.
Guo Jia, who was riding a horse in the wind, turned his head and looked at the young man next to him with a pale and uncomfortable face, and laughed loudly, "Three Master, you have been working hard for five consecutive days. It seems that you can't stand the body of a scholar."
The third young master is naturally Zhen Yao, the third son of the Zhen family.
My whole body was sore, as if my bones had been broken apart. Zhen Yao gritted his teeth and insisted, shouting to Guo Jia without giving up: "My whole body is really hard to withstand such a rush, but my heart is more happy than ever. I will not hide it from Fengxiao. I have wanted to go out for a long time and see it. However, my parents are not traveling far away, and now they can dominate the world with Fengxiao. Haha, it is really a pleasure in life!"
A good show was performed in Zhen Mansion for Pan Feng and Shenfu, and then Zhen Yao escaped. Guo Jia's trip to Jizhou made a lot of gains.
Not only did he receive strong support from the Zhen family, but he also solved Han Fu's proposal for marriage.
Now, everyone in the world knows that Guo Jia has committed another heinous crime and killed the third son of the Zhen family. The Zhen family not only has to worry about Guo Jia's revenge and uses Zhen Jiang as a shield, but will also take his anger on Han Fu. Han Fu is in a disadvantage in this matter and dare not act rashly on the Zhen family.
Guo Jia's plan was a win-win situation.
Zhen Yao, who was galloping on his horse, remembered something and shouted to Guo Jia with shame: "Fengxiao, the person you mentioned in letters several times in recent years, I went to search for it and found this person."
Suddenly, Guo Jia's eyes shone and he asked anxiously: "Have you ever recruited this person?"
Zhen Yao shook his head and sighed: "This person is quite prestigious in the local area. He led his hometown to resist the invading bandits and was unwilling to go to Zhongshan Kingdom to serve my second brother."
After hearing this, Guo Jia sighed, but unfortunately shook his head and didn't ask anything else.
Zhao Zilong, Changshan, can you and I be enemies in this life?
The neighbor of Zhongshan Kingdom is Changshan County. In his letters, Guo Jia and the Zhen family hope that the Zhen family would visit Zhao Yun in the Zhending area of ​​Changshan County. If they could find it, they would try their best to recruit them.
But he didn't expect that Zhao Yun led the village hero to defend his home in the local area, and he was also a young hero. It was a delusion to ask him to serve the prefect of Zhongshan.
If Zhao Yun wanted to leave his hometown, he would have to wait until the world was in chaos. Even if Guo Jia came to search for him at this time, he would probably be turned away. After all, although Guo Jia is not notorious now, he is barely considered notorious all over the world.
Guo Jia just felt a little bit of a pity when he failed to recruit Zhao Yun. In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, when many heroes emerged, Guo Jia had six people, Xu Chu Dianwei, Gan Ning Zhou Tai, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun. He felt that the heroes in the world would be so jealous that they would be crazy.
Guo Jia, who was interested in examining Zhen Yao's talent, turned his head and asked, "Now I, Guo Jia, enter the sea like a dragon, with a huge sky and a big earth, and can go anywhere. Third Young Master, where do you think I should start a war?"
Zhen Yao, who was jogging and huddled up at the sky, raised his head and looked at the sky after a while. After thinking for a while, he shouted to Guo Jia: "The Central Plains are well-connected, and the strong enemy is surrounded by a strong enemy, so it is not easy to gain a foothold. Only in a remote place can cause trouble. Youzhou has Gongsun Zan's white horse righteousness. The power of controlling the string cannot be stopped by elite soldiers and strong generals. Youzhou cannot do it. Among the famous people in Bingzhou, Lu Bu, Ding Yuan has Lu Bu, who can compare with 100,000 powerful soldiers, but not Bingzhou. Dong Zhuo, who has been in charge of Xiliang for several years, recruited surrendered Qiang soldiers, and is good at riding and shooting.
, Xiliang Iron Cavalry is famous all over the world. If there is no strong crossbow, it will be flattened. Liangzhou cannot do it. There is Tao Qian in Xuzhou. Although Tao Qian is not a powerful lord, he comes from Danyang. Danyang Mountain is dangerous and the people are full of strength. He leads Danyang troops to take over Xuzhou, which is not an underestimator. Xuzhou is flat and easy to attack and difficult to defend. It is beneficial to occupy Xuzhou for a short time, but cannot defend for a long time. In the long run, Xuzhou will not do it. After all, Xuzhou will not do it. After all, Feng Xiaojue will only have three places left, Yangzhou is the best, Jingzhou is the next, and Yizhou is the next."
Guo Jia laughed generously and praised Zhen Yao: "I haven't seen each other for several years, and the third young master has already made me look at him with admiration. Then I will ask you again, why is it the most beneficial for me to enter Yangzhou? Why is it the most unfavorable for Yizhou?"
Zhen Yao chuckled and shouted: "If you take Yangzhou, you will have Danyang troops. This is a long-term plan. After occupying Yangzhou, you can also go north to Xuzhou or visit Jingzhou in the west, which is a geographical advantage. As for Jingzhou, the Jingxiang clan is not easy. If you are not careful, you may be harmed by it. However, Jingzhou also has advantages. If you defend Jiangxia and Xiangfan, you can protect yourself, and then you can enter Sichuan and Shu west or conquer Yangzhou in the east. As for Yizhou, the country of Tianfu has high mountains and steep mountains surrounding the border to resist foreign enemies, but once you enter Sichuan and Shu, it is still possible to dominate the country, and it will be difficult to advance the world. Moreover, Liu Yan just led his army to Yizhou. If you want to take Yizhou, there are too many casualties."
After listening to Zhen Yao's analysis, Guo Jia smiled but refused to comment, but his evaluation of Zhen Yao had risen several levels from the previous exaggerated young master.
...
"Guo Jia, Guo Jia, Jiang Er, this is Guo Jia you have been thinking about day and night! Your brother died at his hands. Are you still not giving up on him?"
After bombing Pan Feng and Shen Pei away, the Zhen Mansion began to work on Zhen Yao's funeral.
At this time, Zhen's mother, dressed in mourning clothes and retreated and her jewel-like atmosphere was completely facing the sky, was immersed in the pain of losing her son. When she saw Zhen Jiang kneeling in front of Zhen Yao's spiritual position, she was furious.
Zhen Jiang's eyes were empty and unconscious, and his expression was numb. He knelt in front of the spiritual throne as if he was a sculpture. He let his mother blame him and never responded at all.
Zhen Jiang said nothing after scolding for a long time. Zhen’s mother raised her palm and wanted to slap her in the face to wake her up, but the palm that was lifted in the air couldn’t fall. Finally, she sighed and said angrily: “No matter whether you want it or not, if you get married in half a year, my mother will find you a good family.”
After saying that, Zhen's mother waved her sleeves, and her sadness and anger intertwined her way out of the mourning hall.
The empty and gray eyes seemed to have lost all their vitality. Zhen Jiang kept looking down at the ground, allowing cold tears to slide from the corners of his eyes.
The white jade-like hand reached into his arms, and when he slowly pulled it out, he held a dagger of dazzling cold light in his hand.
The dry and white red lips opened slightly and said indifferently: "San brother, I know he killed you, and I should hate him, but I really can't hate him, third brother, I'm sorry. Fengxiao, if there is a next life, will you still climb over the wall and go to the hospital to recite poems for Jiang Er?"
The dagger aimed at his chest, Zhen Jiang was determined to die, and used all his strength to hold the dagger and stab it inward.
"Big girl! What are you doing?"
A big hand held Zhen Jiang's wrist. Zhen Yu looked at the tip of the dagger sank into Zhen Jiang's chest with a look of surprise. Blood flowed, dyeing Zhen Jiang's pale mourning clothes red.
Although Zhen Jiang was holding his wrist by Zhen Yu, she was still stabbing the dagger into her chest with force. She seemed to be unaware of the stinging pain from her chest, and she just wanted to end her life as soon as possible.
Ding Ding
Zhen Yu pulled out the dagger and fell to the ground. He held Zhen Jiang's hand and pressed it on the wound in front of his chest, blocking the blood from flowing out.
"Come! Come!"
Zhen Jiang, lying in his elder brother's arms, burst into tears silently and burst into tears.
"Brother, just let me fulfill my wish. Fengxiao killed the third brother, but I still miss Fengxiao. How can I face my third brother's spiritual position? Brother, I only want to die. If I don't succeed today, I will still want to die tomorrow."
What Zhen Yu was most worried about was that Zhen Jiang did stupid things, so Zhen’s mother walked out of the mourning hall, so he walked in and wanted to enlighten Zhen Jiang for a few words. Fortunately, she came, otherwise Zhen Jiang would die in vain.
He sighed helplessly. When Zhen Yu saw the servants outside the mourning hall rushing over, he quickly lowered his head and whispered a few words in Zhen Jiang's ear.
Zhen Jiang looked at his elder brother in shock, and when he saw his elder brother nodding solemnly, he believed his words.
...
After leaving Jizhou, he went north to Youzhou, then turned to Bingzhou and returned to the foot of Taihang Mountain. Guo Jia spent three months on a big circle.
When he just returned to his temporary residence at the foot of Taihang Mountain, Guo Jia met Zhang Yan, Zhang Baiqi, Xu He, and Sima Ju had already completed the things he arranged and returned to report.
A new large tent was built behind the wooden house, and a map of the states in the world was hung behind the main seat.
Guo Jia sat in the main seat and recommended Zhen Yao to everyone. At this moment, Xu Shu also brought Guo Xiu, Guo Qi, Guo Zhi and Guo Ping to meet up. As for the villagers in Chenliu, Zuo Ci and Yu Ji were taken care of.
With a line of strategists and military generals, Guo Jia sat in the main seat and said to everyone: "I believe everyone has heard of the Zhen family, the richest people in the world. Now I have obtained the support of the Zhen family. In the future, the Zhen family will secretly transport weapons, armor, war horses and food to me. When the strength is accumulated, I will take advantage of the opportunity to seize the land of a state, lay a foundation, and then conquer the world."
Xu Shu said with a smile: "When the news of the tragic death of the third son of the Zhen family came, I expected that the young master would use a trick behind the scenes. As expected, as expected, if the young master wants to raise an uprising, which state will he seize?"
Guo Jia stood up and walked to everyone. There were literati on the left and Xiong Wuhan on the right. Looking at their expectant gaze, Guo Jia said lightly: "Yangzhou, Jingzhou, Yizhou, one of the states, as for which state it is, I have not made up my mind yet. After I think carefully, I will make a detailed plan."
Everyone praises goodness, and the general policy needs to be discussed in a long time, and it is impossible to make hasty decisions in a moment.
After the meeting was over, as soon as Guo Jia left the tent, Xiao Yi walked up with a heavy expression and whispered to Guo Jia: "Little Grandpa, Miss Cai, Miss Cai, Miss Cai has an accident. It has been spread throughout the imperial city for a month, and Miss Cai will be castrated."
Guo Jia was shocked! He blurted out: "How could she be in Luoyang?"
Catatonics, also known as castration, are commonplace for men to be subjected to this punishment, such as the famous Sima Qian. It is rare for women to be subjected to this punishment. It is extremely cruel to stab the lower body with sharp weapons.
"Two months ago, Miss Cai insisted on returning to her home in Luoyang. I couldn't wait to persuade her, so I escorted her back. The matter was decided by the opera master." After Xiao Yi said that, he seemed to feel that he had done something wrong and bowed his head silently.
Cai Yan is leaving, maybe no one here has reason to keep her. Besides, her parents are both in Luoyang and have been missing for more than a month. The family is worried about what it will be like, so it is reasonable for her to go home.
"What crime did she commit?" Guo Jia closed her eyes and showed a look of struggle.
Guo Jia, who was already thinking about how to save Cai Yan, suddenly opened his eyes because Xiao Yi said something that made his whole body tremble.
