Chapter 1023 Jiang Ji
Guan Yu and Yu Jin walked side by side in the middle of the road, and behind them were Cao Jun with [-] infantry and cavalry.The faces of the two were silent, and they had nothing to say to each other.

Yu Jin was Cao Cao's confidant and favorite general who took refuge in Cao Cao in the early days, but Guan Yu was just a new general who came half a month ago.But what's interesting is that Yu Jin is the most resolute, upright and upright person. When he voted for Cao, he expressed his willingness to die for the revival of the Han Dynasty.Although later in Cao's camp he did not show his tendency to be loyal to the Han, but how do the world know what he thinks in his heart?
When Guan Yu surrendered to Cao Cao, he used his life as a guarantee, saying that he would not surrender to Cao Cao.Especially his identity is inseparable from the Han Dynasty.

Although the current relationship between the Han Dynasty and Cao Cao is harmonious enough, the current Han Dynasty is no longer the majestic and powerful man in the hearts of the world that "whoever offends my mighty man will be punished even if he is far away".Anyone in the world who has the heart can see that the Han Dynasty today is just a puppet parasitic under Cao Cao.

But this is something that the world knows and can't talk about. Therefore, Yu Jin and Guan Yu, who seem to have a lot to talk about, were very silent along the way.The only similarity is that the two of them looked at each other intentionally or unintentionally from time to time, pondered for a while but didn't take the initiative to speak.

"Two generals, this time we are going to attack the enemy, not a man and a woman. Why are you two generals so coy?" The person who said this was a young man with a foxy face behind them. Just wearing a robe and leather armor.Holding a horsewhip casually, idly whipping the already green weeds by the roadside, the cynical meaning is too obvious.

However, behind him, there was a giant guard like a strong bear.The man had an arm injury, but he exposed it on purpose, obviously reminding him of the humiliation all the time-both Yu Jin and Guan Yu couldn't imagine why Cao Cao would send Xu Chu, the commander of his tiger guard, to protect a new master Bo?

What's more, the boss named Jiang Ji has no reputation at all.It is unbelievable that Cao Cao was appointed as the Vanguard Overseer for such a person who was only a small county official in the past.It is conceivable how Guan Yu and Yu Jin, already famous all over the world, would ignore such a small person.

It is a pity that Ma Chao was not present at this time, otherwise, he would definitely scold Guan Yu and Yu Jin for their blindness: Jiang Ji is just a role in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".But in real history, he is a conspiracy figure comparable to Jia Xu and Guo Jia!There is even a slight advantage, after all, the Chinese classic "Theory of Ten Thousand Chances", which is famous for later generations but is regrettable due to its incompleteness, was written by this person!

This important minister of the Wei State in the later period, successively serving as Cao Cao, Cao Pi, Cao Rui, Cao Fang, and the official to the Taiwei, made suggestions. If the monarch listens to it, he will win, and if he does not listen, there will be news of defeat. The taste is very high.

At this time, after Jiang Ji's words fell, both Guan Yu and Yu Jin showed contempt and sullen expressions on their faces.However, before the two could exit, a scout galloped quickly from a distance, and several rangers greeted them, confirmed the identity of the other party, and then moved out of the way.The scout rushed to the front of the queue and shouted at Guan Yu and Yu Jin: "Report! Sixty miles ahead, there are Yuan Jun scouts."

This news made everyone's expressions stagnate slightly.The appearance of reconnaissance cavalry there indicated that they had already entered the field of vision of Yuan Jun's main force, and they might encounter battles at any time.

Guan Yu and Yu Jin had been through the battlefield for a long time, and at the same time they habitually raised their hands, trying to stop the team from moving forward, but when they found that the other party had done the same, they quickly retracted them, showing embarrassment, and the whole team was a little confused for a while.Fortunately, the chaos didn't last long, and the soldiers quickly formed a team, slanting their spears and halberds slightly, and stringing their bows and crossbows, so as to deal with possible sneak attacks at any time.You can tell at a glance that it is a master of a hundred battles, and the details are not neglected.

Afterwards, Yu Jin opened his mouth and said to Guan Yu: "Yuan Jun is here, the purpose is unknown, let's send an army to meet the truth." point.

At this time, Jiang Ji's voice sounded from behind them again: "Two generals, do you need to sacrifice the lives of soldiers in vain?"

Both Yu Jin and Guan Yu were already a little sullen at this time. When they turned their heads to look at Jiang Ji, they found that he didn't care about it. He smiled and said, "The vanguard who led the troops westward this time is Yan Liang. The soldiers under him should be Twenty thousand Youyan riders."

Guan Yu always looked down on those literati who pretended to be lofty, especially such yellow-mouthed children. After casting Jiang Ji's eyes, Dan Feng said displeasedly: "Mr. Xiao came here to accompany the army. He is a military counselor, and he is not just talking about it!"

Apart from always standing silently behind Liu Bei and giving Liu Bei enough face, Guan Yu would not give face to others easily.These words were spoken with sarcasm and blatantly. If it was an ordinary young man who was proud and arrogant, his face would change suddenly.But Jiang Ji gave Guan Yu a sympathetic look, and then said to Xu Chu behind him, "You heard me, I said everything I should say. It's because they didn't listen, but it doesn't hurt me."

"I know." Xu Chu snorted and gave Guan Yu a hard look.Xu Chu's glance didn't mean to stand up for Jiang Ji, he just took the opportunity to express his dissatisfaction with Guan Yu——Since he surrendered to Duke Cao, Cao Cao respected Guan Yu a hundred times, and he was in the high position of a general. There is so much contempt for such a person who doesn't know how to praise, if Cao Cao hadn't issued strict orders, Xu Chu would have wanted to compete with Guan Yu a long time ago.

And Guan Yu is also very strange. Regarding Jiang Ji, he is not afraid of others saying that he bullies the small with the big.But for warriors like Xu Chu, he didn't have much ill feeling in his heart. Even though Xu Chu was so dissatisfied with him, Guan Yu still didn't intend to argue with him. Check out the enemy vanguard."

Yu Jin used some tricks to deal with the conflicts among his colleagues. Seeing Jiang Ji's arrogance, Guan Yu and Xu Chu secretly had a rift, so he couldn't help changing the subject: "Mr. Cheng has occupied the two counties, and our army has occupied the city. The most secure and safest, why did the lord and Xun Lingjun let me wait thousands of miles to fight in the field?"

I am afraid that only Jiang Ji can answer this question at the scene.But after Jiang Ji glanced at Yu Jin, he said, "Are you asking me, or talking to yourself?"

When Guan Yu heard this, his face became angry again, but Xu Chu was just waiting for Guan Yu to get angry, so he couldn't help but took a step forward on his horse.Seeing this, Yu Jin couldn't help but smile wryly: "A certain person is asking Governor Jiang for advice."

"Yuan Shao raised an army of 40, and after defeating the Ma family army, he launched a massive counterattack against our army. It is conceivable. If Yuan Shao's vanguard can reach Weijun smoothly, it is conceivable that the Yuan family's army can be deployed calmly. After that, it will be like a desperate attitude to retake the two counties and win back morale." Jiang Ji still twitched his horsewhip casually, talking eloquently: "If this is the case, our army will fall into continuous bitter battles. This is Cao's Nobody wants to see that."

After these words, there was no contempt and anger on Guan Yu's face. After a surprise, he asked: "So, Cao Gong's intention is to let me defeat the pioneers of the Yuan family and take down the first merit?"

"If the vanguard is not Yan Liang, I'm afraid it will be. But Yuan Shao is so aggressive and has exposed this failure, how can our army give up?" Jiang Ji smiled, without saying the whole thing, deliberately to offend Guan Yu's appetite.

At this time, the four scouts in front rushed back with blood on their bodies. They were obviously spotted by Yan Liang's sentry, and a small battle broke out.Before reaching Guan Yu, one of them shouted: "General, the general of the Yuan family is Yan Liang, and his subordinates command [-] Youyan elite riders!"

When he said these words, Guan Yu, Yu Jin, and Xu Chu all trembled.They exchanged glances, walked forward dozens of steps, and drove their horses up a small hill, far away from the queue.Finally, Guan Yu couldn't help but said again: "Mr. Jiang, what did you mean by that sentence just now?"

Jiang Ji smiled slightly, and replied to everyone with a cynical, neither sad nor happy attitude: "Yan Liang is a famous general in Hebei. If he were to be awarded the title here, what kind of blow do you think this will be to the Yuan family?"
