After leaving the home of this hospitable Junyou tycoon from Anping State, the road ahead was particularly easy.
Firstly, there is no snowfall further south and west, and the roads are clean and hard; secondly, Jizhou is the heartland of Hebei and the heartland of the Han Dynasty. It has a prosperous population and developed products, so the roads are wide and flat, making it really easy to drive.
In addition, among the group of scholars, the southernmost one happened to be a scholar surnamed Han from the northern part of Anping Kingdom. Therefore, after leaving here, it would be considered as leaving everyone's real hometown. In the eyes of everyone,
The scenery and people began to become completely different. As a result, a group of scholars rode together, talked about the past and the present, and commented on the characters. It can be said that they were in a happy mood and were young and romantic.
"The water in front of us is called Junshui." Zhen Yi, the oldest, was sitting on her family's convertible car, holding on to the wheels of the car, and was giving directions to everyone. "Go up the Junshui..."
"What a strange name!" Liu Bei suddenly interrupted and rode forward, as if he was afraid that the people around him would not see the brand-new brocade clothes on his body and the tall horse on his crotch. "Why is it called Zushui? What's the meaning of it?"
"Well..." Although Zhen Yi is dissatisfied that her grace has been interrupted, she can't argue with a naughty kid. "Zui Shui means overflowing water, which means flood."
"But this water is obviously not very flooded. Brothers, please see, this river is narrow and shallow. Doesn't it live up to its name?" The naughty boy is really annoying.
"That's not it." Zhen Yi, who was sitting in the convertible car, patiently explained. "If you go upstream along this water, you can actually see the world-famous Dalu Lake (also known as the largest lake in Hebei).
It is called Julu Ze (Guang A Ze). Although this mainland lake is a large lake formed by the depression where the old course of the Yellow River meets the Zhang River, once it overflows and floods occur, the lake will rise and the water will be opened up.
The river is called Zhenshui. Once the water level drops, the Zhanghe River will bifurcate on both sides of the continental swamp, and the Zhenshui River will flow alone. But in the end it will merge with the Zhanghe River..."
"It is both the Zhang River and the Thun River. Since this Tung River is originally a part of the Zhang River, why do we need to give it a separate name?" Liu Bei became more and more confused. "Is it the Zhang River or the Tung River?"
"Well..." Zhen Yi didn't know how to explain it for a while.
"Ha." Gongsun Xun had already understood it, so he couldn't help but smile and explain. "Abei, what Brother Dayin means is that when the flood comes, the water in the Zhanghe River is
The floodway leads out from Dalu Ze, so the locals simply named it after the word "洚" for flood. In fact, the river itself is probably just a small tributary of the Zhang River. If it didn't serve as a floodway, it probably wouldn't be much of anything.
Mingchuan River."
"That's it!" Liu Bei suddenly realized. "Brother Xun, your explanation is clear and easy for people to understand. It's not like what Brother Zhen said, which makes people confused."
"Stop talking nonsense." Gongsun Xun shook his head and said with a smile. "Brother Dayin has his own thoughts, which will be of great benefit to us. If you don't understand it yourself, do you still blame others for imparting knowledge? If this is the idea,
You won't learn anything when you arrive in Luoyang."
Everyone, including Liu Bei and Zhen Yi, laughed when they heard this. It should be known that teachers these days are only responsible for preaching and receiving knowledge, and are never responsible for answering questions. Otherwise, why is Master Kong known as the eternal teacher?
It's really because that teacher is really good enough.
Of course, back to the present, since we are approaching Julu County, and we are talking about Dalu Ze, also known as Julu Ze, the group of young scholars will naturally talk about the Battle of Julu, and when it comes to the Battle of Julu,
Even Gongsun Zan and other scholars from the border counties inevitably got involved and started talking on paper, and soon started arguing with the scholars from Jizhou again.
Therefore, everyone naturally talked about sex more intensely.
At this moment, Han Dang suddenly rode forward, came to Gongsun Xun and said a few words, causing the latter to pull back and temporarily leave the battlefield.
"Isn't this man your companion, Brother Yi Gong?" Gongsun Xun asked as he walked. "When I saw you two together, I thought he was following you."
"No." Han Dang shook his head repeatedly. "This man's surname is Jia, and he is a cavalryman in Lulongsai. He also went to fight to support us during the last night attack, and received many rewards. It happened that he was about to resign and return home.
Because I had an extra horse that day and was leaving home to go south, I asked him to accompany me. Later, he followed us all the way from Feng Dashui, which saved a lot of trouble. This time we were almost home.
He was about to leave the team, so he just wanted to pay homage to you, Shaojun, to show his gratitude..."
"That's it." Gongsun Xun nodded nonchalantly.
In fact, there is nothing to say about this kind of thing.
Gongsun Xun gave face to his confidant and came over to meet the cavalryman named Jia who had appeared with Han Dang at the Fengda River that day.
I first looked at the appearance and figure, and they were quite capable, but there were a lot of cavalrymen in Lulongsai, and there were quite a few people like this. Then I asked about the name, and it was probably Jia Chao, and he didn’t have any characters, so it was pretty standard.
The gang leader asked for his address again. It turned out to be a place at the junction of Julu County and Anping Country. I had never heard of it. I only knew that it belonged to Nanhe County, Julu County. It was probably a remote place...
As a result, Gongsun Xun got off his horse and bowed to him in public. He also asked Aunt Jin to help him get two pieces of silk and a piece of silver to give him, which was regarded as fulfilling their original friendship of fighting side by side.
And Han Dang was now Gongsun Xun's guest, and he rode his good horse, so he didn't have to worry about his own horse. In addition, the other party was also a former military partner, so he simply waved the Northland horse away.
Gave it to the other person.
Then, the two parties separated by the Zhu River and went on their way again.
Just like this, after walking less than four or five miles, a group of scholars were already arguing like foaming at the mouth from the Battle of Julu to the Siege of Gaixia, and then inexplicably arguing all the way to the Battle of Changping.
Then, suddenly, the scholar surnamed Han from Anping Kingdom intervened and asked, should we stop temporarily and rest in Tangyang City on the edge of Anping Kingdom and Julu County? If we can't speed up if we continue like this.
, don’t even think about resting in Julu County’s Litao City (today’s Xingtai Pingxiang) tonight. Nine times out of ten, you will have to live in Tingyi, and you will suffer a lot if you live in Tingyi!
By the way, after walking like this, the journey has already passed a third of the way, and these young men have not even stayed in the serious Tingyi!
And after hearing this, the scholars from Bianjun and Jizhou inevitably started to fight each other. On the one hand, they said that the people on the opposite side could not endure hardship, and on the other, they said that the noble family style needed to be maintained, and so on... And in the end, Bianjun
After all, the scholars couldn't bear to leave these fellow disciples behind, so they could only agree to the suggestion of staying in Tangyang City in broad daylight.
When Gongsun Xun heard this, he looked at the relatively high sun above his head, feeling speechless but helpless. As he looked left and right, something suddenly moved in his mind, and then an interesting idea suddenly occurred to him.
"Shaojun wants to find that Jia Chao?" Han Dang was confused. "Why?"
"First of all, I have a reason to be impatient!" Gongsun Xun raised his riding whip to the group of scholars in front who were foaming at the mouth.
Han Dang nodded repeatedly. He had been following Gongsun Xun these days. At first, he was a little new to the exchanges between the children of these famous clans, but as time went by, he also felt that these people were really annoying when they talked about it!
"There is another one." Gongsun Xun said with a slight frown. "I grew up in a border county in western Liaoning. I rarely saw the customs and customs there, so I came out this time and always wanted to see the customs of other places. But from Youzhou to Jizhou
, along the way, they all live in the homes of wealthy families along the way, and they all see the same blooming flowers. Seeing that Jizhou is halfway through, Julu County is in front, if I can't go to the countryside to see it, I really feel
I feel a little unwilling to do so."
"Young Master is the master and I am the guest." Han Dang was straightforward when he heard the words. "You want to take a small road to the countryside to see something, of course I have nothing to say. Just come here, this is Jizhou, we are not born in the same place.
You know, backcountry areas need to be guarded against thieves and unruly people, so you need to bring more manpower; secondly, studying is the real thing, and you must not fall behind."
"Both of these are easy." Gongsun Xun replied calmly. "I have already thought about it. I will hire three or five companions with better martial arts skills. I just need to bring a few more horses. Think about it, this Hebei Province is as flat as a river.
, with your and my equestrian skills, even if we encounter something, even if we are defeated, we can still ride away. As for falling behind, these people are the only ones who lead such a large convoy and talk while walking, and they have to take a rest after half a day.
... Even if we are three to five days behind, we can catch up at any time."
Han Dang thought about it for a moment, and it seemed that this was the truth, so he stopped talking and went to the team to pick up capable people and horses.
As for Gongsun Xun, he didn't call his eldest brother Gongsun Zan who had a particularly happy fight with Zhen Yi and Uncle Zhen. He just called Gongsun Yue aside, gave a brief explanation, and then unexpectedly joined Han Dang with three or five companions.
He went directly to find Jia Chao.
However, as soon as they walked out of the seven or eight miles away, these heroes from Liaoxi, who were skilled in bow and horse, found out to their embarrassment that their group seemed to have lost their way in this foreign land.
"Did the old farmer just say that you should cross the river first, then turn right at the intersection, and then you can see the countryside where Jia Chao's home is?" It was getting dark, and Gongsun Xun couldn't help but point out this.
A fact. "And before we crossed the river, we turned right at an intersection and then came to this place in a daze?"
"Young Master, the journey is too long. It's too late to stay overnight. Let's find a place sheltered from the wind and light a fire!" Han Dang replied helplessly. "In this wilderness, we are not afraid of wolves, but we are afraid of the cold weather. That's
It’s going to cost someone’s life.”
Gongsun Xun was silent for this.
"Taizu and his colleagues went to Luoyang and passed Jizhou. They were all wearing precious chariots and horses. They were shouting in front of them and supporting them. They walked on the official road day and night, and stayed in the county's wealthy and powerful people at night. Taizu said: 'When traveling to other places, you must first save yourself.
Ask about the customs. 'I walked on the small road and entered the poor countryside, so that I could fully understand the reality and reality of the geography." - "Jiu Yan Shu". Volume 1. The Chronicles of Emperor Taizu Wu.
