473 The Dark Psychology of King Lengjian Sili, Henan City.
Guo Jia was sitting in the prefect's mansion, holding a writing brush in his hand, with a piece of white paper spread out in front of him, and he was writing furiously. However, he saw hundreds of eloquent words being written in one swipe, and the pen was vigorous and powerful, which is quite outstanding among everyone.
.
"Hao Meng!"
"What are the military advisor's orders?" Hao Meng, wearing iron armor, an iron helmet on his head, and a sword hanging from his waist, asked with clasped fists.
Guo Jia blew on the paper, and after the ink dried, he folded the paper, stuffed it into an envelope, sealed it with beeswax, handed it directly to Hao Meng, and said, "You are escorting this
When the grain and grass arrive at Xuanyuan Pass, please give this letter to General Gao, and then you will stay at Xuanyuan Pass and assist General Gao in guarding Xuanyuan Pass."
"No!" Hao Meng took the letter, turned around and left.
Guo Jia waited until Hao Meng took two steps, his eyes flickered, and he hurriedly shouted: "Come back."
Hao Meng turned around and asked, "Any other instructions from the military advisor?"
"Please be sure to ask General Gao to implement what is written in the letter. This method can temporarily protect Xuanyuan Pass."
"No! Is there anything else you want to give me, military advisor?" Hao Meng bowed and asked.
"No, go ahead."
Hao Meng said goodbye to Guo Jia, turned around and walked out of the hall.
He left the prefect's mansion, got on his horse, rode to the city gate, and shouted to the thousand soldiers escorting grain and grass at the city gate: "Let's go!"
More than a hundred carts of grain and grass, as well as more than a hundred carts of newly made arrows, were slowly moving southward under the pull of cattle, mules and horses.
Since Lu Bu defeated Cao Cao's tens of thousands of troops at Hulao Pass with thousands of troops, there has been a brief period of peace around Sili. Twenty days have passed, and there has been no movement from the enemies on all sides. During these twenty days, the troops controlled by Lu Bu
Several counties around Luoyang were under the jurisdiction of the Sichuan Province, but there were many complaints.
On the one hand, it was Lu Bu's massive conscription, and on the other hand, he collected iron tools from the people in various counties, and then put them into a smelting workshop near Henan City for smelting. Finally, the blacksmiths recruited from the net were used to forge arrows.
Hao Meng rode a horse, escorting grain, grass and arrows and drove slowly south and southeast. He was one of the eight strong generals under Lu Bu's tent. When he, Cao Xing, and Li Feng followed Gao Shun to attack the north gate of Ye City, he was unfortunately killed by an arrow.
He was shot and seriously injured, and he has been recuperating until now. His body did not get better until the past two days, but the wound on his chest still hurts, and he can only do simple things like escorting food and grass.
After marching slowly south for more than ten miles, Hao Meng ordered to stop on the roadside for a rest and let the cattle, mules and horses pulling the cart rest for a while. The young horses from the Central Plains could not make up the mules and horses to escort the grain and grass, so they had to lead
The common people's oxen were used instead, so the journey was very slow, with frequent stops and starts.
Stopping at the roadside, Hao Meng jumped off the horse, walked to a big tree, sat down, opened the water bag, and drank a few sips of water to relieve the dryness in his throat.
He looked around and saw that all the new recruits under his command were listless and extremely tired after leaving for a while. He shook his head and said to himself: "What if the military appearance is restored to its previous appearance?"
Worried about not being able to dominate the Central Plains? These recruits are all farmers. They can't mount horses and can't shoot arrows accurately. If they are really dragged into the battlefield, ten of them may not be able to defeat others..."
"Whoosh!"
A sharp arrow flew directly over and shot straight towards Hao Meng. It quickly passed by the helmeted cherry tree above his head and shot the helmeted cherry tree directly into the root of Hao Meng's back.
"Zheng!"
The arrow was still trembling slightly, and Hao Meng looked surprised. The arrow came too fast, and he was not prepared at all. He turned around and saw a person jumping out of the grass in front of him.
A group of people also rushed out, each holding a long bow in their hand, a quiver on their back, and a short blade hanging from their waist.
"You are looking for death!" Hao Meng saw that one of the leaders was Cao Xing. He immediately became angry and cursed loudly.
Cao Xing is responsible for recruiting and training new recruits. He has superb archery skills and often takes a group of people to the barren mountains and ridges for archery training, using hunting as a training method. Today he and his people were preparing to return to Henan City and passed by here.
Feeling tired and sleepy, I fell down to rest. Unexpectedly, I met Hao Meng escorting grain and grass passing by, and I made a joke with Hao Meng.
Seeing that Hao Meng was angry, he immediately said: "I was just joking with you, why do you have to be so serious?"
Hao Meng stood up, took off the arrow above his head, broke it with all his strength, and broke the arrow into two pieces. He threw it to the ground angrily, pointed at Cao Xing and said: "You kid, give it to me."
Remember, don’t push yourself too far.”
Cao Xing was originally Hao Meng's subordinate. Later, Lu Bu took a fancy to his archery skills and promoted him to general, ranking with Hao Meng. When he saw that his old superior was angry, he hurried over and asked, "Don't be angry."
Well, am I just kidding you? Look, if you break a good arrow, you will have to break it. In this case, I will kill one less enemy, and we will have one more enemy.
"
"Stop fucking nonsense, my injury has not recovered. When I recover, you will be looking for teeth all over the ground if I don't beat you. Don't think that you are great just because you shot and injured a few Wei generals. I am going to Xuanyuan Pass now."
, see if I don’t cut off the enemy’s general’s head.”
Cao Xing said: "You want to go to Xuanyuan Pass? Very good. The five hundred archers behind me have been trained almost, and everyone's archery skills have reached a certain level. You can take them on the road together and go to Xuanyuan Pass to help General Gao.
, kill more enemies."
Hao Meng glanced at the five hundred archers behind Cao Xing. Although they were not wearing armor, were not strong enough, and were of different ages, he knew very well the strength of Cao Xing's training of archers, and immediately said: "They are really trained at the same level.
Already?"
Cao Xing nodded and said: "They can definitely go to the battlefield. What I teach them are practical combat skills. Shooting the enemy is the most effective. With them as your personal followers, I guarantee that you can escape among the enemy's army."
, and can also kill many pursuers."
Hao Meng said: "Okay, you go back and tell the military advisor, I will leave now."
Cao Xing said: "Take care along the way."
Hao Meng got on his horse, Cao Xing gave some instructions to the five hundred archers, and then let Hao Meng take the five hundred archers away.
Watching Hao Meng go away, Cao Xing stood alone, the smile on his face slowly sank, and finally became more and more gloomy. Turning around, Cao Xing said with a sinister smile: "You are unkind, don't blame me for not being kind.
Righteousness. When I was in your army, you treated me
You beat and scolded me, and now I must repay you in double repayment. Hao Meng, don’t blame me. I was the one who shot the arrow in your back under Yecheng. It’s a pity that it didn’t kill you. This
I won't let you go so easily this time."
……………………………………………………
In the city of Henan, Guo Jia was still mobilizing grain and grass, and sent people to escort Wen Chou and Lu Bu respectively.
At this time, Carisi and Lin Chu walked in together, with a smile on their faces. When they saw Guo Jia, they worshiped together: "I have met the military advisor."
Guo Jia raised his head and saw Carisi and Lin Chu coming together. He immediately stepped back and said, "I have important matters to discuss with them. You all can go down."
After the screen retreated, Guo Jia walked to Carisi's side, stepped forward, held Carisi's hand, and asked: "Is everything going smoothly?"
Caris nodded and said: "Don't worry, husband, everything is going smoothly. A thousand cavalry are ready at Mengjin Ferry and can retreat to the north bank at any time."
Guo Jia nodded and said: "Yes, very good. Lu Bu has collected a lot of gold and silver treasures. After more than ten days of hard work, we have almost moved the things in the treasury, and the food has also been divided into batches."
Yes, as long as the lord leads his troops south, they can be put to use immediately."
"Join the army, General Huang and General Zhao have brought letters from Hanoi. Please join the army to read them." Lin Chu has been secretly protecting Guo Jia. At first, he did not dare to get too close for fear of meeting Lu Bu. Since Guo Jia came to Henan City, Lin Chu
Chu Ye followed him, and happened to catch up with the conscription, so he enlisted in the army and became one of Guo Jia's soldiers.
Guo Jia took the letter from Lin Chu and after reading it hastily, he smiled and said: "The Xianbei army was defeated. My lord, Yanmen Pass, won a great victory. He defeated more with less and defeated 150,000 Xianbei people, and the Wuhuan people were in Qiu."
Under the leadership of Liju, they swept across the entire eastern Xianbei and severely damaged China.
The grasslands outside the Great Wall of Xianbei, Bingzhou and Youzhou have become no man's land. Tian Fengzheng led his scholars Sun You, Qiu Liju, Tadun and others to select sites on the grasslands to build cities. As a result, the area north of the Yellow River
There are no worries anymore, the rest is Lu Bu's business."
Lin Chudao: "How do I reply to the letter when I join the army?"
Guo Jia thought for a while and said: "Go back to Hanoi quickly and tell General Huang and General Zhao that I am ready here. As long as they cross the Yellow River south, I will be ready to respond at any time. According to the Lord's schedule, they should be there
After arriving in Hanoi in two days, or three days at the latest, we will inevitably go south to Sili. By then, Sili will be the burial place of Lu Bu."
Lin Chudao: "No!"
"By the way, don't come back after you go back. Cao Xing is already suspicious of you. This person is a very small person. I must find a way to get rid of him."
Lin Chu said: "What if there is danger in joining the army?"
Caris said: "You can leave with peace of mind. If there is danger, I will save you. I don't want to be so young... Oh, by the way, how do you say that... Oh, it's a widowhood, yes it's a widowhood.
.”
Lin Chu smiled, cupped his hands and said, "Join the army and take care, Lin Chu is back."
Guo Jia nodded and said: "Well, tell General Huang and General Zhao that if my lord wants to go south, please cross from Mengjin, and someone will naturally take over."
"Well, farewell." Lin Chu turned and left the hall.
Caris said: "Husband, are you worried about anything else now?"
"No, but I am most worried about you. What I am even more worried about is Cao Cao. I heard that Cao Cao is planning to attack Hulao Pass again. I don't know if the lord can stop it this time. I don't want Cao Cao to come to Sili before the lord.
