There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

Guo Tu and Guo Jia are from the same township and family, but they have to go back to the ancestors for several generations.

In the current generation, the two families of the same Guo family are basically separated. Guo Tu was born in the clan, while Guo Jia's branch has been in decline, and can only be called a side branch.

Guo Tu came to Guo Jia's side, grabbed Guo Jia's sleeve, and just wanted to talk about business, but suddenly frowned, sniffed vigorously, and said dissatisfiedly: "Drink in broad daylight?"

"You care about me?" Guo Jia's prodigal son said with a smile on his face, "I didn't drink to death."

Guo Tu really doesn't understand what's going on with this freak's etiquette standards. If you don't drink to death, you're justified?

If it weren't for the fact that he was born in a side branch of his own family, Guo Tu would not bother to care about him.

"Feng Xiao, aren't you very free and easy on weekdays? Why do you pay so much attention to some trivial things now? Yuan Gong appointed you as Wei Jun's planner, which is an extraordinary use! He has just taken charge of Jizhou, and many things still have to be done. Think twice and do what you can, you can't do it casually, you have to understand Yuan Gong's difficulties!"

Guo Jia didn't say anything, just raised his hand to pick his nostrils, Guo Tu's scalp felt numb, and the hand holding Guo Jia's sleeve couldn't help but let go.

After digging out the booger, Guo Jia curled up his fingers and flicked the booger to fly away, and said with a smile: "Mr. Yuan's difficulties are well understood by Guo. If you want a position in the army, you have to give it to an important person in the gentry." The characters are kept. After all, although Jizhou is established, Yuan Gong does not yet have the title of state shepherd, and the land in Hebei seems to be flat and chaotic. It is impossible for Yuan Gong to support Youzhou Mu Liu Shijun as the emperor. At present, in terms of policy, Very passive."

"Look at you, you know everything!" Guo Tu stomped his feet fiercely, and said in puzzlement, "Why do you go when you know?"

"Understood, I understand. The problem is that Mr. Guo is not happy. How can you say this is a good thing?" Guo Jia laughed, spreading his hands together in a helpless manner.

Guo Tu got a little angry: "Guo Fengxiao, who do you think you are? Yuan Gong can bear it, but you can't bear it? You are so mad at me, you deserve your skills and have not been in office yet. If you continue like this, you will go home Go drink the northwest wind!"

Guo Jia smiled at Guo Tu, clasped his fists and said: "A wise man can judge his master carefully, so he behaves well and makes meritorious deeds. Yuan Gong wants to imitate the etiquette of Zhou Gong, but he doesn't know how to determine his position according to his ability. If you don't cut it short, it will be difficult to become a king and overlord!"

Guo Tu stared blankly at Guo Jia pretending to be an egg, and the two-character mantra popped out in his heart, I am!

"Feng Xiao, if you don't serve Duke Yuan, where do you want to go?"

Guo Jia turned around, waved goodbye to Guo Tu, and said with a smile: "The sky is high and the land is vast, Guo should make more friends when he goes out!"

Watching Guo Jia gradually disappear into the distance, Guo Tu let out a harsh "spit", stomped his feet and said angrily, "I'll see what bad friends you can hand over in the end!"

At this moment, the potters' team returning to Xuzhou had already driven to the boundary of Liyang with Qu Yi, and turning north at this time was Yuan Shao's headquarters, Yecheng.

And if you go down from Liyang, you can go to Yanjin Ferry, cross the Yellow River and turn to Yanzhou to go straight to the boundary of Xuzhou.

During this period of time, the pottery merchant has never been idle, and he has been brainwashing Xu Huang almost day and night, instilling in him the idea that Yuan Shao's family has many noble families and powerful families, and it is difficult for ordinary children to get ahead.

Unable to stand up to the foolishness of the pottery merchant, Xu Huang once again wavered about whether to go to seek refuge with Yuan Shao.

And at this time, the pottery merchant moved out the ace heavyweight Huang Fusong!

The master and apprentice came together to fool Xu Huang, and promised benefits in real terms. The pottery merchant even asked Huangfu Song to give Xu Huang a guarantee. Make a match in person.

Faced with so many temptations, Xu Huang was unable to resist in the end, compromised and succumbed, changed his vote from Yuan Shao to Xuzhou, and returned to Pengcheng with the potters and the others.

At this point, the potters and other brigades will also part ways with Qu Yi, and the two sides will go their separate ways, Qu Yi will go to Yecheng, and the potters will go to Xuzhou.

When Qu Yi was about to leave, he specially left a golden flag embroidered with the word "Yuan" to the potter.

The potter didn't understand what he meant.

Qu Yi patiently explained to him: "I have already sent someone Xingye to Yecheng to report the matter here to Lord Yuan, and Lord Yuan was afraid that you would be a thief on the way back to Xuzhou, so he specially asked me to mark this side with other words. The banner with your name is left for you, if there are really strong bandits or local princes and county guards who try to stop you before you leave the border of Hebei, you can hold this banner and declare Duke Yuan's name as a deterrent!"

Chapter 157: A Fox Fakes a Tiger

Hearing that Yuan Shao actually worried about him to such an extent, Tao Shang was really moved.

I have to say that Yuan Shao treated him very well, he even thought of the troubles he encountered on the way back, and even specially gave him a flag with the word "Yuan" for him to pretend to be awesome on the way.

My father is not as close as him.

"I'm sorry for General Qu's reply to Yuan Gong. Tao thanked him for his kindness, but he was disrespectful."

After Qu Yi confessed a few more words, he immediately led the army to bid farewell to the pottery merchant, and the two sides went to their respective destinations.

Seeing the figure of Qu Yi leading his troops away, the pottery merchant secretly slapped his mouth.

Good general, goodbye.

After the soldiers and horses arrived at Yanjin Ferry, they arranged for boats to cross the river.

The potter's brigade has more than [-] people, which is too many people. The boats at the ferry are limited, and only a few people can be transported at a time. And the pottery merchants are afraid that the Baibo army will mutiny during the crossing, so they can only First let Xu Chu and Mi Fang lead a part of the pro-army to cross the river first, and after breaking up with Xu Huang, Xu Rong and others, use this method to supervise on both sides of the ferry.

But just as the Baibo army descended to cross the river batch by batch, unexpected events still came one after another.

A scout from the Xuzhou army hurriedly reported to the potter: "My lord, something is wrong. Less than [-] miles away from us, there is a large group of soldiers and horses marching towards the ferry. There are quite a few of them. It is said that there are more than ten thousand!"

"More than ten thousand soldiers and horses are coming to the ferry?" The potter's face tightened.

At this time, soldiers and horses are crossing the river, and most of them need to guard the Baibo army. If the 1 people are not friends but enemies, once the opponent launches an attack, it will cause the Baibo army to mutiny during the period, it will be very bad.

"Whose soldiers and horses are those more than ten thousand people? Have you found out?" Xu Rong beside the pottery merchant also knew that the sudden situation was not optimistic, so he hurriedly asked.

The scout swallowed a mouthful of spit, and hurriedly replied: "The opponent's soldiers and horses have messy clothes, they are definitely not official soldiers, and the flags in the army are poorly made, and the subordinates can't see clearly for a while. !"

"It's the Black Mountain Army!" Everyone's expressions suddenly became very nervous.

There is no doubt that the Black Mountain Army is the largest unit among the remaining Yellow Turbans in the world today!

The commander-in-chief, Zhang Yan, led by the people and soldiers under his command, with a crowd of millions, is almost no different from a prince.

Even the imperial court had to admit the existence of the Black Mountain Army, and ordered Zhang Yan to be the General of the Peaceful Zhonglang.

Compared with the Black Mountain Army, the Baibo Army is simply playing tricks, as funny as playing house.

Hu Cai heard that the other party was the Heishan Army, and hurriedly said to the potter: "My lord, the Heishan Army has dozens of leaders besides Qu Shuai Chu Feiyan, and one of the leaders is Bai Rao. The scout said that the flag reads: Heishan Junbai, maybe this person led the troops here."

Xu Huang swung the big ax and said, "No matter who comes, we don't need to be afraid of him. Please order the battle, Young Master. Xu Huang is willing to be the vanguard!"

The pottery merchant turned his head to look at the group of people waiting to cross the river in darkness, shook his head, and said, "No, we have 10,000+ soldiers from the Baibo Army here, and they and the Black Mountain Army belong to the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army. It can be regarded as the same spirit, if we let them know that the Black Mountain Army is coming, we don’t know what kind of accidents will happen, this battle cannot be fought.”

Xu Huang became anxious when he heard the words, and said: "If you don't fight, what should you do?"

The pottery merchant thought for a while, and said: "There are more than [-] people here. Although not many can go out, the Black Mountain Army doesn't know the truth. If they really want to fight, they won't just send more than [-] people over here." , if I'm not mistaken, this army of more than [-] people should have come to see the truth."

Speaking of this, the potter's eyes suddenly caught the big flag with the word "Yuan" waving in the wind, and his heart suddenly woke up.

That's right, didn't Alliance Leader Yuan leave me something for self-defense?

The pottery merchant stretched out his hand to greet Xu Rong, and said in a low voice: "You are here to urge Hu Cai and the Baibo army to cross the river quickly. Xu Huang, Han Hao and I will lead a small number of troops to meet the Black Mountain Army with Yuan Shao's big flag. .”

Xu Rong turned his head hesitantly and glanced at the big banner that Qu Yi left for the potter, and said in silence for a long time, "Can you keep it?"

"Try it, in case it might have a miraculous effect."

The soldiers and horses in the distance were accompanied by thick smoke, and they were galloping towards the ferry bit by bit.
