Chapter 596 Guo Jia abandons Yuan Shao and goes to Uncle Liu
Chapter 596 Guo Jia abandoned Yuan Shao and went to Liu Huangshu
Jizhou, the battle has begun.
After some deliberation, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan finally started fighting.
The time chosen seemed better.
Tao Qian of Xuzhou and Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei in Yanzhou, all provided people, effort and materials to support Zhu Jun's westward expedition to Guanzhong.
In this case, Yuan Shao can fight Gongsun Zan with a lot of peace of mind.
It was at this time that someone quietly left a letter and a seal in the room, and left without telling anyone...
Guo Jia was walking on the road with a few guards beside him. He looked back at Jizhou, shook his head secretly, and strode away.
At this time, almost a year had passed since he came to Yuan Shao.
The fourth and third prince, Yuan Benchu, was a model for the world. He killed the eunuch Yuan Benchu and took action against Dong Yuan Benchu...
Many scholars praised Yuan Benchu for his great reputation.
It is said that Yuan Benchu was sincere, generous, and very talented, able to know people and make good use of them.
It is said that Yuan Benchu was good at accepting advice. In today's world, the person who can bring things right out of chaos and restore stability to the Han Dynasty is none other than Yuan Benchu!
Many people are praising Yuan Shao and Yuan Benchu.
Even his clan brother Guo Tu wrote to him personally more than once, inviting him to go to Yuan Shao's place.
He kept telling himself how good Yuan Shao was.
Under such circumstances, Guo Jia set out to join Yuan Shao in Jizhou...
Recalling what he had seen and heard in Yuan Shao's place for nearly a year, Guo Jia couldn't help but shake his head secretly.
It can be said that he came with high hopes, but came back disappointed.
I thought that so many people would recommend Yuan Shao to me so much that Yuan Benchu was such a rare talent.
But as a result, after this personal contact and observation, Guo Jia realized that it was difficult to live up to his reputation!
Yuan Shao's reputation is very false.
Yuan Shao was indeed able to accept advice with an open mind.
But he lacks his own decisiveness.
Often when some people had different opinions, Yuan Shao would fall into deep entanglement and find it difficult to make a decision.
I am too opinionated.
Moreover, although Yuan Shao hid it well and seemed to treat others kindly, in fact, he was a generous person but not a broad-minded person...
Guo Jia also disliked what Yuan Shao's counselors were doing.
Yuan Shao's counselors were mainly divided into the Yingchuan faction and the Jizhou faction, which were at odds with each other and competed in various ways.
The Yingchuan system is also unstable and has various disputes.
Especially his brother Guo Tu, he is simply a super troublemaker.
The key is that he, who had tried his best to invite him to come at the beginning, now started to be wary of himself after seeing that he had done something in Yuan Shao's place.
His attitude toward himself changed more and more, and he began to use secret tricks on himself...
This incident made Guo Jia feel extremely uncomfortable and depressed.
It feels like holding a rotten fruit as an incomparable treasure, super protective of the food, and worrying that you are going to snatch it from him.
After staying here for nearly a year, to be honest, Guo Jia has lost all good impressions of this place.
Yuan Shao couldn't do it, and his counselors had just acquired the land of Jizhou, and they had already started fighting for power and profit, and started fighting openly and secretly.
But Yuan Shao is a person without strong decisiveness and cannot suppress these people...
Seeing this situation, Guo Jia felt uncomfortable all over.
So after some thinking, Guo Jia finally prepared to run away.
Yuan Shao's place looked lively and famous at this time, but Guo Jia felt that behind the liveliness, there was too much corruption and chaos.
In the future, if someone really rises up and can wipe out this big man, it will definitely not be Yuan Shao.
At this time, there was a letter in his package. This letter was written by Xun Yu and Xun Wenruo.
It’s been half a year since I wrote the letter.
Guo Jia has not forgotten the agreement he made with Xun Yu when he left Yingchuan.
At that time, a large number of people in Yingchuan went to Yuan Shao and defected to Yuan Shao. He went to find his friend Xun Wenruo and go with him.
But Xun Wenruo said that he was going to Chang'an to join Uncle Liu Huang.
It was the leader of the Yuan family who had a background as a butler, beheaded Cao Cao, the traitor who assassinated Dong, defected to Dong Zhuo, and personally beheaded the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family, Yuan Wei, the former great master of the Han Dynasty, who made Yuan Shao shed tears and break his arrows, and still curses him when he mentions it now.
Liu Cheng Liu Huangshu.
At the time, that choice was really unique.
It's puzzling.
When many people talked about this matter, they couldn't help but laugh at Xun Wenruo.
Even I didn't quite believe what Xun Wenruo told me at that time...
Even now, Guo Jia still doesn't quite believe what Xun Yu told him.
The letter he has here was sent to him by Xun Yu half a year ago. In the letter, he told himself how good Guanzhong was and how wise Uncle Liu Huang was. He also said to himself that if the Han Dynasty would be prosperous,
Then it will inevitably fall on Uncle Liu Huang.
This is very different from what ordinary people call Liu Cheng.
After this experience with Yuan Shao, he took a more critical attitude towards Xun Yu's words.
After all, before he came to Yuan Shao's place, all he heard was how good Yuan Shao was.
But when he arrived there and actually saw Yuan Shao, he discovered that Yuan Shao was not the master of the Ming Dynasty.
Exaggeration.
At this time, Xun Yu praised Liu Cheng so much...
After what he had just experienced, Guo Jia couldn't help but think about it.
However, he deeply agreed with Xun Yu and Xun Wenruo, and knew that Xun Yu was a person and his vision was far beyond ordinary people.
There was also an agreement made with Xun Yu at the beginning, so after being completely disappointed with Yuan Shao, he finally chose to abandon Yuan Shaoyuan and go to Guanzhong to have a look.
Look at Xun Yu and Xun Wenruo, are they bragging too!
When the time comes, Liu Cheng, Liu Huangshu, and the scene in Guanzhong do not need to be as Xun Wenruo said to himself in the letter. They only need to have the 80% that Xun Yu said. No, as long as there is a 60%, he will
Stay in Guanzhong and do things with Uncle Liu Huang!
But at this time, I'm afraid that I don't even have the 60% that Xun Yu said.
If this is really the case, it would be disappointing.
I can’t see where the future is going…
Guo Jia did not go directly to the west.
He didn't tell the others that he was leaving.
Otherwise, he worried that he would not be able to leave.
When it was time to leave, he didn't reveal the news to anyone.
He asked Yuan Shao for a job to go to Dangyin to collect grain and grass, and left with the upright Yuan Shao.
All the way to Dangyin.
Dangyin is far away from Yuan Shao and belongs to the southwest of Jizhou.
Going further south, you can reach the Yellow River.
After crossing the Yellow River, we left Jizhou and arrived at Yanzhou.
To be precise, it is Dongjun in Yanzhou.
There are two ferries across the Yellow River here.
One is Baimajin located to the east, and the other is Yanjin located to the west.
Both places are ancient ferries.
The Yellow River here is relatively narrow and is suitable for ferry crossings.
The terrain of Dongjun is long and narrow, running east-west.
The eastern half is connected to Jiyin in the south.
When Liu Cheng went to Luoyang, the hometown of Li Jin, who was abducted by Liu Cheng, was in Chengshi, Jiyin.
The southern part of the western half of Dongjun borders the northern part of Chenliu County.
The governor of Chenliu County is Zhang Miao.
Guo Jia did not go to Baimajin, but went straight to Yanjin in the west.
There are many ferries here in Yanjin.
Although it is not a time of peace for the world, there seem to be many more people crossing the river than before.
But in the past, most of the people who crossed the river were people selling goods.
At this time, most people are fleeing.
There was a war in Jizhou in the north, so many people went from north to south and wanted to leave Jizhou.
The south is also not peaceful. Many people in the south feel that the north is safer than the south, so they head towards the north.
When they actually arrive at their destination, they will find that the place they dreamed of being better than where they and others were before is actually basically the same...
Guo Jia stood on the ferry and looked at the many people on the boats. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. At this time, how many places are safe?
Can people live with peace of mind?
It’s really pitiful!
People all over the world come and go, all wanting to find a relatively stable place to live in peace of mind, but the result is so difficult...
Standing on the ferry, looking at the rolling Yellow River water under his feet, and looking at the many bewildered people, Guo Jia had a lot of thoughts for a while.
At this time, it is gradually approaching the busy time of farming and the harvest season.
The further south you go, the earlier the wheat you planted matures.
If the world is at peace, a large number of people will be the busiest at this time.
But now, this large number of people are running around in confusion.
In many invisible places, a large number of people were forcibly recruited and participated in the war.
The farming season has been delayed!
Although Guo Jia was born into the Guo family of Yingchuan, he was only a branch of the Guo family. Although he had the status of the Guo family, his family was not actually wealthy and was only slightly better off than those at the bottom.
Combining everything he has seen in the past two years, as well as everything he has seen along the way, and looking at the scene in front of him, Guo Jia, a person with a relatively free and easy personality, feels heavy in his heart at this time.
The idea of ending the troubled times in his heart was so strong at this time.
Only when the chaos comes to an end can the people and many people be stable.
Being so confused and weak is not what a strong man should look like!
However, he couldn't help but feel a strong sense of powerlessness in his heart.
Although he was very conceited, facing such a scene, he knew in his heart that it was simply impossible to solve the problem by relying on himself.
It's okay to come up with ideas with others, but it's totally impossible to really let yourself take the lead in doing this.
With this thought in his mind, he couldn't help but think of what Xun Yu said to him in the letter, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.
I hope what Xun Wenruo said is true. If it is true, then I, Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao, will definitely do everything possible to help!
Not for anything else, just for the prosperity of the Han Dynasty, and for the early peace of the world!
"I hope the world will be at peace soon, the country and the people will be safe, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment without being displaced..."
Guo Jia looked at the roaring Yellow River and couldn't help but say this out loud.
"Young Master said it well. I hope this world can settle down soon and let people have something to think about."
After Guo Jia finished speaking, someone spoke up and continued what he said.
The voice sounded loud, but full of emotion.
When Guo Jia heard this, he looked behind him and saw that the person who spoke was a man on the same boat.
This man is very tall and strong, as strong as an iron tower.
There are two short iron halberds on hand. The poles of the iron halberds can be as thick as a baby's arms. The whole person looks extraordinary.
Beside him were eight people, all carrying equipment and looking more heroic.
Guo Jia had already noticed this man as soon as he got on the boat.
He originally wanted to make friends.
But at this time, the scene in front of me aroused many thoughts in my heart. For a moment, I seemed a little uninterested and was not in the mood to say much.
Therefore, I bowed my hands to this man and saluted him without engaging in conversation.
The man returned the greeting and did not come forward to talk to him.
The two of them took a boat and looked at the roaring Yellow River. They seemed to be in a trance for a while, and their mood seemed heavy...
Ships cross from north to south.
After docking, someone standing on the bow of the boat first threw the anchor to the shore, then jumped off the boat, pulled the anchor back hard, stretched the rope, and pressed the bow tightly to the shore.
Pluck the anchor into the soil...
Guo Jia took several of his followers off the boat, and the man who looked like an iron tower, carrying a pair of halberds and several companions, also got off the boat.
After walking forward for a while, he found that this section of the journey was actually a smooth road. Guo Jia slowed down and waited for the man to catch up, then saluted him and spoke to him.
"I just witnessed such a scene, and then I remembered that my big man has turned into this. I felt unstable for a moment and didn't want to talk. I neglected my brother. Please don't take offense..."
Seeing Guo Jia say this, the man also returned the courtesy to Guo Jia, shook his head and said: "How could it be? Seeing such a scene, I feel heavy in my heart..."
The two began to walk and talk at the same time. Although their identities were different, they felt that their words were very congenial.
After a conversation, the two exchanged names, and Guo Jia found out that the mighty man holding a pair of halberds in front of him was called Dian Wei, and he was from Chenliu County, Yanzhou.
I had some business and went to Jizhou. After finishing my business, I returned from Jizhou.
He is a ranger.
The two talked and walked all the way, and they walked dozens of miles without realizing it.
There were also some other people who were on their way, traveling with them.
Suddenly, there was a sound of gongs, and many thieves emerged from the dense forests on both sides of the mountains, blocking their way.
