Guo Jia stared at Lin Feng and looked him up and down for a long time, and finally scratched his scalp and asked: "If Jia hadn't seen his lord invincible on the battlefield and performed miracles repeatedly, he wouldn't have believed it was just rumored in the market that his lord was the reincarnation of the God of War.
rumors."
Lin Feng was a little confused.
"What's the meaning?"
"This is the first time that Jia knows that there is a God of War who can't even figure out his own military strength."
"ah?!"
"Heishan Camp, although the troops under Lunu City were lost, the Black Mountain Camp was not injured. Is it so forgotten by the lord?"
Lin Feng's face suddenly turned red.
It's over, it's over, now I feel timid.
How could you forget that the Black Mountain Camp is right next to you?
Yan Liang's injuries have not recovered, but Chu Yan is still there, and the Black Mountain Battalion, with a strength of more than 17,000, is still the main force with strong combat capabilities.
Including the Heishan Battalion, Lin Feng had deployed an army of more than 70,000 on the Hejian battlefield, not including Tian Yu's new army that was about to arrive on the battlefield.
You must know that in history, Cao Dabailian tried to annex Jiangdong in the Chibi War. He only mobilized more than 200,000 troops and advanced to the edge of the Yangtze River by falsely claiming 800,000 troops. Sun Siyan was so frightened that he almost surrendered.
The two major military groups in the north and south, Big Face and Four Eyes, had mobilized less than 400,000 troops in total to conquer the country. However, Lin Feng had invested nearly 100,000 troops on the Hejian battlefield at this time. He was still worried about insufficient troops. Sure enough, it was true.
There is no one left.
"I made a mistake and made a mistake. I don't know why my brain got knotted for a while. Hehe, people make mistakes and horses make mistakes. It's normal. It's normal."
Lin Feng repeatedly justified his mistakes.
Guo Jia couldn't help laughing loudly.
No wonder Xun Wenruo and Xi Zhicai both said privately that their protagonists were very knowledgeable in situations, and no matter how chaotic the battlefield, he could always grasp the key points immediately and create unbelievable miracles.
But in normal times, he is like a military idiot and always comes up with some unbelievably naive questions.
Now he finally saw how confused Lin Feng was. He was really comparable to Guan Dasha and Zhang San crazy!
When Lin Feng and Guo Jia were mobilizing their troops to prepare for the Hejian Battle, just as Guo Jia expected, Guo Tu was leaning worriedly in the private room of the largest restaurant in Yuyang City, eagerly waiting for the door curtain to be raised.
He made an appointment with Guan Jing, Gongsun Zan's chief adviser, for a banquet, but he didn't come for a long time, so he was naturally worried.
The day before yesterday, Guo Tu met with Gongsun Zan and finally persuaded Gongsun Zan to send troops to Hejian to fight with Yuan Shao against the increasingly aggressive Qingzhou Lin Zhirou.
It's just that although Gongsun Zan promised well, he was reluctant to take action. In order to urge the Youzhou cavalry to join the Hejian battlefield as soon as possible, Guo Tu deliberately curry favor with Guan Jing in order to get him to say more good things in front of Gongsun Zan.
Yesterday and Guan Jing
They had a great conversation, and today they plan to strike while the iron is hot. The two of them will first finalize the date of dispatching troops in private.
But for some reason, the appointed time had already passed, but Guan Jing still hadn't arrived. Guo Tu's heart suddenly felt like he was fetching water from fifteen buckets, and he was confused as to whether there was an accident.
Just as Guo Tu was nervously pouring tea, a burst of sharp and harsh laughter came, and Guan Jing walked in with the curtain raised.
In the golden autumn of July, Jizhou is still in the sultry stage when autumn tigers are raging, but Youzhou has already had a cool breeze. Guan Jing is wearing a light blue gown, a sky-high bun on his head, a small eyebrow with a small squint, and a garlic nose.
There are only a few broomsticks on his mouth and chin. At first glance, he gives people the impression of a sinister villain.
Guo Tu hurriedly left the table and stood up.
"Brother Guan, it's so hard for me to wait."
Guan Jing chuckled, lifted up his clothes and sat across from Guo Tu, with his left leg on top of his right leg and his legs crossed casually: "Brother Guo, I'm not my brother. I deliberately tired you for a long time. It's really the governor who just pulled me to stop him.
I have no choice but to leave."
Guo Tu's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard that Guan Jing had just left Gongsun Zan.
"Brother Guan, I wonder if Governor Gongsun has set a date for marching into Hejian?"
Guan Jing reached out and picked up a soybean boiled in salted water from the table, gently stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it slowly without answering.
Guo Tu stood up and filled a glass of wine for Guan Jing, and continued to ask with a smile: "I'm not just talking nonsense, it's really a matter of great importance, which makes me worried. I want Brother Guan to give me some definite news. I won't listen in vain."
.”
Guan Jing raised his eyes and glanced at Guo Tu. At that moment, he didn't care about himself and raised his glass to indicate that they would drink together.
Guo Tu held the cup in both hands and came forward to touch it with Guan Jing. He drank the cup in one gulp and then continued to look at Guan Jing longingly.
Guan Jing swallowed the chewed boiled soybeans with wine, pointed at Guo Tu with his finger and said: "The governor got the situation a few days ago. In addition to sending you to Yuyang to lobby my family, your lord actually sent someone to go there."
Liaodong?”
Guo Tu nodded and admitted decisively: "Yes, there is nothing to hide. If only Governor Gongsun and his family send troops, even if they defeat Lin's army, there will be heavy casualties. After all, the number of Lin's army is there, in Hejian
Not counting the nearly 40,000 troops within the territory, more than 10,000 troops can be mobilized to join the war at any time. In order to ensure that our two families will not be injured due to fighting against Lin Jun, my lord sent people to Liaodong again.
Prepare to lead Liaodong troops southward, and the three families will unite to fight against Lin's army."
Guan Jing's unique sharp laughter sounded again, obviously very satisfied with Guo Tu's frankness.
"Brother, the governor just admired you very much. He said that if you are willing to switch to the Youzhou camp, the governor will definitely guarantee you a position as a servant."
Guo Tu didn't answer, he just stared into Guan Jing's eyes, secretly putting pressure on him.
Guan Jing saw Guo Tu had no reaction
, shook his head slightly.
"Brother, there is no need to worry. We, the Youzhou Cavalry, have already assembled in Fanyang City and will head to Gaoyang tomorrow afternoon under the leadership of General Yue."
The general Yue mentioned by Guan Jing was the first general under Gongsun Zan, and his younger brother Gongsun Yue.
Under Gongsun Zan's command, members of the Gongsun family were everywhere.
But the most important people were only two people, both of whom were Gongsun Zan's disciples. One was Gongsun Yue and the other was named Gongsun Fan.
Gongsun Fan was appointed by Gongsun Zan as the governor of Youbeiping County in order to block Gongsun Du of Liaodong.
Gongsun Yue was Gongsun Zan's vanguard when he sent out troops every time. Not only was he very good at commanding cavalry in battle, he was also the most capable general under Gongsun Zan.
This time Gongsun Zan sent troops to Hejian. Since Gongsun Yue was used to lead the vanguard, it was obvious that he wanted to fight Lin Feng himself.
Guo Tu was overjoyed when he heard this. After toasting Guan Jing with another glass of wine, he said solemnly: "Brother Guan, I wonder if Liaodong Gongsundu agrees to jointly send troops, can the governor agree to the Liaodong soldiers and horses passing through?"
Guan Jing shook his head repeatedly: "It is absolutely impossible. If Gongsun Du really wants to join the Hejian War, let him come across the sea. General Fan of Youbeiping County will not allow Liaodong soldiers and horses to cross the border."
Guo Tu sighed, this result had been expected for a long time.
Since Gongsun Zan refused to use the road, Gongsun Du could only board the ship from Haiyang City in Liaoxi County, travel along the Bohai Bay to the mouth of the Haihe River, go upstream along the river eastward, and meet Yuan Tan's troops at Wen'an City.
Although Gongsun Du's troops and horses will spend an extra day on the road, it is very consistent with the layout of the review.
Yuan Shao's main army and Gongsun Zan's army jointly sent troops from Gaoyang to fight Lin Jun's Chiyan Camp in Shuzhou.
Gongsun Du joined forces with Yuan Tan to fight against Huaziying in Wen'an.
As long as the two main forces of Lin's army in Hejian are eliminated, Yuan Shao will be confident enough to block Lin's army south of the Hutuo River, even if Lin Feng sends troops from Qinghe and other places to come for reinforcements.
As for the two counties of Zhongshan and Changshan, Yuan Shao really can't take care of them now. The main business is to protect Hejian first.
Xu You, who was stationed in Wuyuan, suggested to Yuan Shao several times that he lead troops to Zhongshan for reinforcements, but Yuan Shao rejected them all.
Yuan Shao is now like a frightened bird. Without foreign aid, he really does not want to start an all-out war with Lin Feng.
Afraid of losing.
Once Hejian is lost, Yuan Shao will have no chance to turn around.
Therefore, in order to attract the Second Gongsun of Youzhou to send troops, Yuan Shao reluctantly agreed to Gongsun Zan. If Lin Feng was defeated in the Hejian Battle, he would withdraw all the troops from Changshan County and let Gongsun Zan and Lin Feng fight for it.
As for Gongsun Du, Yuan Shao also spent a lot of money. He promised Gongsun Du that as long as he could survive this difficulty, he would definitely write a book and go to Runan, asking his uncle Yuan Wei to come forward and accept Gongsun Du as a registered disciple.
