Three Kingdoms: I choose Xiao Qiao and Da Qiao, why are you crying, Diao Chan?

Chapter 415 Madam Zhurong (Thanks to book friend 2023…4362 for the two monthly tickets~)

In response to Lu Bu's concern, Guo Jia smiled and waved his hand:

"My lord, don't worry. Since I quit drinking, my body has indeed been much better than before.

“I am willing to go and persuade the Southern Barbarian King Meng Huo to attack Yong Kai.

"Of course, we also need someone to go to Yong Kai's territory to spread rumors that are unfavorable to Meng Huo, so as to encourage Yong Kai to attack Meng Huo."

Seeing that Guo Jia was willing to go deep into the barren land, Zhou Yu, who had been silent, immediately stood up and said:

"Feng Xiao has sacrificed himself so much, I am willing to cooperate with Feng Xiao to achieve this plan!"

Guo Jia looked at Zhou Yu and nodded gratefully.

Seeing that the two of them had made up their minds, Lu Bu could only agree:
"In that case, you two can each choose a general to accompany you."

Guo Jia's eyes swept over everyone and then fell on Wei Yan:
"Just let Wenchang accompany me."

Zhou Yu chose his old acquaintance Zhou Tai.

Both generals readily agreed.

Afterwards, Guo Jia and Zhou Yu had a more detailed discussion on how to alienate Meng Huo and Yong Kai.

after one day.

Guo Jia and Zhou Yu were fully prepared, and Lu Bu personally sent them out of the city.

Before leaving, Lu Bu said to Guo Jia and the other three:
"You must prioritize your own safety and never take risks.

"I will personally lead 50,000 troops to Qianwei County to take charge.

"If the situation goes wrong, I will send troops directly south!"

He didn't want the same thing that happened to Deng Zhi to happen again.

Wei Yan waved his hand and said:

"My lord, rest assured, with Wei Yan here, I will never let anything happen to Feng Xiao.

"If he shows any sign of being unhealthy, I will tie him up and bring him back!"

These words immediately amused everyone and eased the dull atmosphere.

Lu Bu said no more and watched Guo Jia and his four companions, along with a thousand soldiers, head to Qianwei County first.

He needed to organize food and troops and could set out in a few days.

Half a month later, Guo Jia and his party arrived in Jianwei County from Lujiang County.

After all, the ancients did not have cars and airplanes like modern people, which could allow them to travel across China in a short period of time.

It is difficult to travel fast on muddy and uneven roads or upstream relying solely on horse-drawn carriages and boats.

After the long journey, everyone was quite tired.

So the four of them rested in Jianwei County for a few days before starting to act according to the plan.

Meng Huo and Yong Kai were both from Yizhou County.

Since Liu Mao surrendered to Lu Bu's army, Meng Huo and Yong Kai rose up against Lu Bu.

Yong Kai now mainly guards the two vassal states of Zangke County and Jianwei, while Meng Huo governs the three counties of Yuexi County, Yizhou County and Yongchang County.

The areas under the control of the two men are almost the same, and they echo each other from a distance.

After a good rest, Guo Jia and Wei Yan entered Yuexi County, while Zhou Yu took Zhou Tai into the vassal state of Qianwei.

When Guo Jia entered Yuexi County, he found that there were many mountains and rivers here and the environment was unique.

However, there are few people in the deep mountains and forests, but there are many poisonous insects and ferocious beasts.

Therefore, the two of them did not dare to take the small road, but took the crowded main road.

When the two arrived at Qiongdu County, the seat of Yuexi Commandery, they found that many of the people there were tall and strong.

At first glance, he looks like a rough and tumble southern barbarian.

Of course, there are also many Han people here, so their appearance would not seem out of place.

When Guo Jia and his companions arrived here, they immediately began to investigate where Meng Huo's wife, Madam Zhu Rong, lived.

According to legend, Lady Zhurong was a descendant of the fire god Zhurong. She was brave and resourceful, skilled in martial arts, and good at using flying knives. Therefore, Guo Jia planned to start with this female general to persuade her husband Meng Huo to raise an army to attack Yongkai.

After some investigation, the two finally found out that Mrs. Zhu Rong lived in Dianchi County, the county seat of Yizhou County.

Lived with her husband Meng Huo.

The two of them immediately entered Yizhou County from Yuexi County.

The further south you go, the more desolate the county's territory becomes.

If you don't follow the locals, it's easy to get lost in the dense forests and dangerous areas.

Even Wei Yan couldn't help but complain:
“If I had known this wild land was so desolate, I would have told you not to worry about it.

"At worst, we can wait until we unify other territories, then come back to retake and slowly develop this place."

Guo Jia did not comment on Wei Yan's complaint.

Since he has made a promise, he naturally has to complete the task as much as possible.

Fortunately, when they arrived at Dianchi County, the seat of Yizhou Prefecture, they were able to experience normal life again.

But most of the people living here are barbarians.
Therefore, the arrival of Guo Jia and Wei Yan immediately attracted the attention of many barbarians.

But what Wei Yan did not expect was that Guo Jia not only did not keep a low profile, but instead deliberately made large purchases in the barbarians' shops.

Soon, several barbarian soldiers came to them and invited them to the city lord's mansion for a chat.

When Wei Yan faced the unfriendly gazes of these barbarian soldiers, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

However, Guo Jia readily agreed to the request.

Wei Yan was quite puzzled by this, but he could only follow this top strategist and take it one step at a time.

After all, you can't fight hard in this situation, otherwise it will be impossible to return to the lord's territory alive.

Even if the two of them were really detained by the enemy, they could only wait for the lord to negotiate with Meng Huo.

I believe that given the importance of myself and Guo Jia, the lord will definitely exchange them back no matter what...

Of course, this is just the worst-case scenario.

Facts have proved that Guo Jia is worthy of being a counselor who has been particularly favored by the lord shortly after joining.

When they arrived at the prefectural government, the targeting they had imagined did not occur.

Instead, he was served delicious tea and fruits by a group of enthusiastic barbarian girls who were not afraid of the cold and exposed their waists and navels.

Of course, compared to the north, the south-central region is not that cold.

Moreover, it is already early spring, and the climate here is gradually getting warmer.

Just as Wei Yan was watching Guo Jia calmly drinking tea and eating local specialty fruits.

A fragrant breeze suddenly drifted into the living room.

Then Wei Yan saw a woman dressed in barbarian women's clothes, with crimson hair and a beautiful and charming appearance.

He came in from the back hall in a carefree manner and sat directly on the main seat.

The moment he saw this man, Wei Yan was stunned.

He thought he would see the legendary barbarian king.

But now it seems that they were the first to meet the wife of the Barbarian King Meng Huo, Lady Zhurong!
Guo Jia was not surprised at all, as if he had expected this.

Wei Yan was secretly amazed, but it was not appropriate for him to ask Guo Jia any more questions at the moment.

But when he saw Guo Jia stand up, he also stood up.

Guo Jia walked straight to the center of the meeting room and bowed respectfully to the woman who was lazily supporting her chin on the first seat:
"My name is Guo Jia, Guo Fengxiao, and I'm honored to meet Madam Zhu Rong."

A trace of surprise flashed in Madam Zhu Rong's eyes. She looked at this handsome man with delicate skin and tender flesh and said with a smile:
"How do you know that I am Madam Zhu Rong?"

Guo Jia responded with a faint smile:

"Madam has an angelic appearance, unparalleled in the world, and she is able to sit in a position that only a prefect can sit in.

"Besides you, who else can deserve such a noble title as 'Madam Zhurong'?"
