Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 546
In Jizhou, Yecheng, in the barracks of the Northern Frontier Army, Guo Jia was reading urgent reports in the big tent.Among these urgent reports, there are those related to Hetao, some related to Youzhou, some related to Qingzhou, etc. Guo Jia now reads no less than [-] related urgent reports almost every day.

"Hetao is under siege, and trade has stopped." Guo Jia threw away one urgent report and picked up another urgent report, saying: "The Great Wall's defense line is in crisis, and Yanmen Pass is very likely to become the front line against the enemy... ,"

Guo Jia's reading speed is extremely fast, and he can almost understand the content of the urgent report at a glance. After reading more than 60 urgent reports, Guo Jia stood up anxiously and walked back and forth. After a while, he shouted: " Come here, go find out where General Zhao Yun is now."

Not long after, Huang Xu walked in and said, "Report to the military division, General Zhao Yun and the others haven't come back yet."

Guo Jia didn't look back, he stared at the map, and then, Guo Jia said slowly: "Yuan Shao, you will pick your time, do you think you can hold back our cavalry? You dare to play, I will It will kill you."

After finishing speaking, Guo Jia picked up the information on the table and read it again, and said to Huang Xu: "Huang Xu, there is something that needs you to do, how dare you go?"

"The military master was joking." Huang Xu said with a smile, "Is there anything I dare not do."

"This is the time when our army is in danger." Guo Jia turned around and looked at the map and said, "Something happened on the northern border, but the reinforcements from all over the country can't rush over now. The Great Wall defense line is now empty, and it is very likely that the enemy will be killed." breakthrough.

If the enemy troops cross the Great Wall, Yanmen Pass will become the last barrier for our army.In any case, Yanmen Pass must not be lost. I want you to go to Youzhou. You must find a way to meet the Taiwei or Taifu Lu Zhi. You must explain to them the danger of our army.

Try to get their consent, and then transfer troops from Youzhou to the border to deploy defenses.Youzhou still has [-] forward troops, and these [-] cavalry will not be able to play any role in Youzhou, so you have to find a way to bring out the forward troops. "

Huang Xu frowned and nodded, "The last general takes orders."

After finishing speaking, Huang Xu still frowned, as if there was something he couldn't figure out, he opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything.

"What's your problem?" Guo Jia noticed Huang Xu's expression, and he continued: "If you have any problems, tell them now."

"Military advisor, what smart people are Taiwei and Taifu, how could they not know the crisis situation on the frontier." Huang Xu cupped his hands and said: "Taifu has commanded troops for decades, and he knows military affairs very well. Having guarded the border for more than ten years, he should know the situation in the border like the palm of his hand.

Now that it was such a critical time, why didn't the two of them make a move.If the imperial court has any problems that they can't solve, is it useful for me to go?In the end, I will worry that this trip will not help. "

"You're right." Guo Jia nodded and said, "The situation is indeed like this, but you still have to go, first you have to explain the situation to them face to face, and you come to find out what happened in Youzhou by the way." Things. Take more people and pay attention to safety. When you arrive in Youzhou, first go to Jia Xu's military adviser and tell him one sentence: east of Liaodong, north of Youzhou."

"Huh? That's all?" Huang Xu asked, "Military teacher, what else do you have to say?"

"No, you just tell him what I said." Guo Jia looked at Huang Xu and said, "This trip is dangerous. If you encounter danger, you have to find a way to solve it yourself. After passing the word to Jia Xu You're going to see your sister and the other matrons.

Then find a way to take them to Hetao or Bingzhou, because the lord once said that he would take them to Hetao to play, you have to be responsible for this matter, there are still a thousand tigers and ben troops in Youzhou, enough to protect the safety of the mistress. "

"No, the general understands." Huang Xu bowed his hands and accepted the order, and then stepped back to work.

After Huang Xu left, Guo Jia rushed to write something on the table. After writing two letters, Guo Jia carefully put the two letters into two wax pills.After doing all this, Guo Jia turned his head to look at the map and said to himself: "If you want to play, you can play the big one. If the Xianbei dare to make trouble, and the Xiongnu dare to make trouble, I will solve you all at once."

After finishing speaking, Guo Jia shouted to the outside world: "Guo Zhong, Guo Xiao, come in."

Two strong soldiers walked in and saluted Guo Jia: "I have met the Patriarch."

"You two have been with me for many years." Guo Jia said slowly: "All along, you have done your best to protect my safety. You have worked hard these years."

"Life is a member of the Guo family, and death is the ghost of the Guo family." The two replied in unison: "Both of my lives were saved by the old master, so I should serve the Guo family."

"Okay, okay, you are worthy of being a loyal servant of my Guo family." The Guo family nodded and said: "There is one thing here, you two should act separately, Guo Zhong, if you go to the grasslands in the east of Xianbei, you must find General Yan Liang, and then send him to the grassland." Give him the wax pill.

Guo Xiao, you are going to Liaodong, then go to the Sanhan area, find General Xu Rong, and give him this wax pill as well.Remember, until you meet these two people, you must not reveal any information about your identities, let alone lose the wax pill.

I have two letters here, you can give them to these two generals when the time comes, they will understand your identities after reading the letters.Back then, my father saved you and gave you a bite to eat, so you survived.

It is precisely because of this that the two of you swore to sell yourself as slaves and guard my Guo family from generation to generation, and you will never change your surname unless you die.Today I can give you a promise, as long as this thing is done, you can exchange your ancestors' surnames, and you don't need to redeem your surnames with death.If things don't get done, you don't want to come back, understand? "

"No." The two kowtowed and replied after the summer: "Patriarch, no matter whether the two of us come back or not, this is the last time we call you Patriarch. Please take care of yourself. If unfortunately the two of us fail to come back, I also ask the owner to pour us some drinks during the festivals, and it is not in vain for the two of us to guard the Guo family for so many years."

"Hey, you go." The Guo family waved their hands and said, "I will settle your family first. If the matter succeeds, you will come back directly to pick up your family. If the matter fails, I will definitely send your family to a safe place." place so that they don't suffer from cold and hunger."

"Thank you Patriarch." After finishing speaking, the two resolutely left. They had followed Guo Jia for so many years, and Guo Jia would not ask them to leave no matter how dangerous the situation was.Not to mention that they can redeem their surnames after they finish their work.

In fact, for so many years, they have been with the Guo family like a family, and the Guo family never treats them as current people.Today, Guo Jia actually said that they should leave regardless of the success or failure of the matter. This can only explain one thing, this task is very difficult, and I am afraid that even Guo Jia will be killed, so Guo Jia will ask them to leave and make them suffer.In fact, they all understand this truth, but their abilities are limited, and in the face of difficulties, they can only obey orders.

"My lord, I have already committed a capital crime by deploying troops without permission." Guo Jia looked at the map and said, "This time I will expose all the secrets you have hidden in the east for so many years, which will add to the crime. Well, as long as I can keep your foundation, I have nothing to complain about, you must come back alive."

Not long after, another soldier sent an urgent report, which was all about the south and west of Jizhou. Yuan Shao mobilized an army of [-] to go north, and opened up the main road leading to the Bohai Sea. Now, together with the defenders of the Bohai Sea, Yuan Shao has gathered more than [-] troops in Jizhou.

And the Guo family has only half of the opponent.Ten thousand front troops, seven thousand white-robed troops, twenty thousand infantry, and fifteen thousand cavalry. There are too many people, and his side is already at a disadvantage.

"Yuan Shao, you are so courageous, you are so eager to seek death." The Guo family said coldly: "You think you can suppress us because you have an advantage in military strength, heh heh, it seems that you are really arrogant. Let you stay in Bohai City.

Do you think you can be safe and sound like this?Don't you want to take back Jizhou?It doesn't matter if I give it to you, it depends on whether you have the ability.Don't eat until you can't digest it. At that time, I want you to die. "

Guo Jia had a sneer at the corner of his mouth. These days, Yuan Shao's reinforcements and provisions kept arriving in Bohai Sea. It seemed that he was preparing for the decisive battle.Now most of Jizhou has fallen into the hands of the Northern Army. If Yuan Shao really wants to take back Jizhou, he must face the Northern Army in Jizhou.

But Yuan Shao also knew very well how powerful the Northern Frontier Army was. Although he had the upper hand in strength, he didn't dare to make the first move.If possible, he hoped that the northern border army would attack Bohai City, so that his strength advantage and field disadvantage would be offset.

But is the Northern Xinjiang Army so stupid?Zhao Yun and Tai Shici led the cavalry these days to continuously attack and harass Yuan Shao's army's food roads, looting a lot of food. Although they haven't succeeded in driving Yuan Shao away, they haven't brought much substance to Yuan Shao's army. damage, but so far, Yuan Shaojun is still passive.

The cavalry Guo Jia actually sent out was only more than 1. Yuan Shaokong had an army of [-] and did not dare to go out to fight in the city, let alone confront the northern army in a grandiose manner.Of course, Yuan Shao must have done this out of self-protection needs.

He was actually right to do this, because it was the Northern Army that was eager for a decisive battle, not him. He had already received news of Gongsun Xu's disappearance, so he concluded that the Northern Army in Jizhou wanted to end the war here as soon as possible. Go back to rescue the prairie side.

It was precisely because of this that Yuan Shao made up his mind to delay the war, even if it cost more food and grass, he didn't care.

In the plain, Zhao Yun led [-] cavalry to loot all the food and grass in the plain. This time, the northern army made an exception and asked the people for food. However, Zhao Yun and the others all issued IOUs, and Zhao Yun also sent someone to announce the important value of the IOUs. As long as you go to Bingzhou with the IOU, you can get double the grain and a certain amount of land.

This is Guo Jia's strategy, he doesn't plan to spend any more time with Yuan Shao, Jizhou is so big, so what if he gives up some to Yuan Shao.
