There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

Lu Su squinted his eyes and observed carefully for a while, before he said quietly: "Zhongmou? Isn't this the county seat of the Central Plains? Why is it that the grain and grass are transported here?"

Sima Yi waved his palm fan and said solemnly: "It is reasonable to say that there is no problem transporting grain and grass to the counties in the Central Plains, but Zhongmou County is too close to the Guandu battlefield. What is Zhongmu County doing? At the invitation of Cao Jun, we transported about [-] shi of grain and grass to Zhongmu County. Although it is a lot, it is definitely not much for [-] Cao soldiers. [-] soldiers will add cattle and horses, and [-] shi will last for a month. No, it's like a chicken rib in Zhongmou County, what do you want him to do?"

Chen Deng's thoughts were quick, and he was the first to recall it.

"What Zhongda means is that the grain and fodder in Zhongmou County is not for the Cao army in Guandu headquarters, but for Li Jue and Guo Si who went north to harass Bingzhou?"

Sima Yi nodded and said, "Nine out of ten."

Chen Deng somewhat didn't remember it.

"According to what Zhongda said, if these grains and fodder are used by Li and Guo, what's the use of Li Jue and Guo Si going north to Bingzhou, since Zhongmou County is not close to Hanoi?"

Zhuge Liang put down the white feather fan lightly, and said: "Mr. Yuanlong, Liang already knows what Xiaoyi means. Li and Guo went north to harass Bingzhou. They must be wearing light clothes. This part of the grain and moss Cao Gong must have been It was prepared for the two of them, and if Xiaoyi's words are correct, the grain and fodder in Zhongmou County should be used by Li and Guo when they return to the army."

Lu Su looked at Zhuge Liang strangely, and said, "Kong Ming, if it's as you said, but the distance between Mou County and Bingzhou is a bit far. The so-called three armies have not moved, and the food and grass go first. The food and fodder matter is very important. In case there is a slight delay in the middle, and I can't make it back for a while..."

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Brother Zijing, what kind of person is Cao Cao? The timing of the calculation of food and grass must be appropriate, and Li Jue was also a strong general in Xiliang back then. It is only when we are sure that we dare to stockpile the follow-up military rations in Zhongmou County."

Chen Deng and Lu Su still didn't think it through, but Guo Jia said with a smile: "You two may be blinded by a leaf, some things can't be judged simply by distance, although Bingzhou and Hanoi are far away, the west of Zhongmou is Xingyang , the old site of Xingyang has a work that Gaozu used to do, have you two forgotten it?"

Lu Su and Chen Deng suddenly realized that they came from the noble families in the southern region. Although they had studied the terrain in the northwest and Guanzhong, they were not very familiar with it. After Guo Jia's reminder, they came to their senses.

When the Chu and Han dynasties were competing for supremacy, Gaozu set up camp in the south of Xingyang and built a tunnel leading to the Yellow River in order to obtain grain from Ao Cang.

The confrontation between Gaozu and Xiang Yu lasted for more than a year at that time. Xiang Yu had seized this passage leading to the Yellow River many times, forcing the Han army to be unable to supply food. This road leading to the Central Plains of the Yellow River naturally does not require much effort.

After going back and forth like this, everyone finally settled the matter.

The Tao merchant looked back and forth at the five people and said: "Since the matter has been analyzed, please keep it in mind and don't reveal it to others. After all, this is the key link for us to fight against Yuan Shao. We cannot engage in internal strife with our allies. , everything, after defeating Yuan Shao, it will not be too late to make a conclusion."

Everyone bowed together: "No."

All five of them knew in their hearts that what Xuzhou and the southeast region lacked the most was war horses, and the war horses of the Xiliang Army and the Hebei Army were the best in the world.

According to Zhang Xiuyan, Li Jue and Guo Si had the largest number of war horses among the various departments of the Xiliang Army, especially the Xiliang war horses in Li Jue's battalion, which numbered [-]!

According to the gentleman's nature of the potter, he would never let go of this opportunity to hold...a horse.

……

The two armies faced each other, Yuan Shao attacked repeatedly, and Cao Tao continued to defend, but according to the characters of Tao Shang and Cao Cao, they would not continue to passively defend endlessly.

Thus, the small movements of the two began.

Cao Cao sent Li Jue and Guo Si, who were stationed in Guanzhong at the same time, to send troops to Hebei to harass Bingzhou, causing trouble in Yuan Shao's rear.

The pottery merchant sent someone to Taihang to contact Bai Rao, asking him to persuade Zhang Yan to send troops to help and attack Yuan Shao.

As one of the important commanders of the Black Mountain Army, Bai Rao lives deep in the Taihang Mountains, so naturally not everyone can find him.

However, apart from Bai Rao, the pottery merchant also knew Sui Gu, the general of the Black Mountain Army, who was currently stationed in Qixian County on the edge of Wei County, as the leader of the outpost of the Black Mountain Army to monitor the movement of Hebei.

After so many years, no matter how stupid Sui Gu was, he must have known the identities of the potter and Guo Jia through many inquiries.

Sui Gu on weekdays is naturally also sighing with emotion.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Shaogan's son, who used to make friends with himself and Marshal Bai, ate sheep and drank wine, is now the current imperial tutor who is under one person and above ten thousand.

He seems to be a better mess than Yuan Shao.

And what's even more shocking is that this grand tutor is at odds with his godfather Yuan Shao, which really makes people feel that the world is cold and the changes are too fast.

After seeing the envoy of the pottery merchant, Sui Gu did not dare to be negligent, and personally escorted him into the Taihang Mountains, met Bai Rao, and explained the matter in detail.

After talking with the messenger, Bai Rao asked the potter's messenger to go back to rest first, saying that he would make a decision after meeting Qu Shuai Zhang Yan in the next day.

After the envoy went down to rest, Bai Rao couldn't help smacking his lips, and said with emotion: "This wealthy family is really not good, and they really don't have much self-cultivation! When we met these two sons of Yuan Shao, they had a father and a family. Lord, I want to praise that godfather Yuan Shao to the sky! Now, just a few years later, the two boys' wings are hardened, and they want to beat the godfather instead, and they also ask us to beat him together, what do you say? Is there a reason for this?"

Sui Gu nodded vigorously when he heard the words, and he agreed: "The general also thinks that these two boys have no conscience, they have no loyalty, filial piety and shame, they behave like animals!"

"Really?" Bai Rao threw the potter's letter on the table and said, "The Han Dynasty was based on loyalty and filial piety, and it is simply unreasonable for a son to beat his father."

Sui Gu's Adam's apple twitched, swallowed lightly, and said, "That... Qu Shuai, then shall we stop helping the potter beat his father?"

Bai Rao frowned, and said angrily: "Beat! Of course you have to! You are so fucking stupid. That fellow Yuan Shao harmed so many brothers in our Heishan Army back then? If you don't take advantage of him right now, wouldn't the old man of the Yuan family treat you like that?" Our Montenegrin army was made of mud?"

Sui Gu was a little dizzy when he heard that.

"Shuai Qu, didn't you say just now that a son beats his father, it's against the law? Also, isn't our great Han dynasty based on loyalty and filial piety?"

Bai Rao nodded angrily, and said: "Say you are stupid, you are so fucking stupid! Yuan Shao is not your godfather, we beat him up, what's the point of God? What's the point of loyalty and filial piety! Even if God wants to send lightning to strike people, it is Tao's surname! Besides, the emperor is fucking dead, and he is loyal and filial asshole."

Sui Gu suddenly realized, and said: "Shuai Qu is wise! Let's go and advise Zhang Qushuai tomorrow... beat Yuan Shao's grandson!"

Bai Rao waved his fist fiercely and said, "Beat! It's a must!"

5Chapter 17 The Dispute of Montenegro

On the second day, Bai Rao excitedly took the potter's letter and led Sui Gu to see the chief of the Black Mountain Army—Pingnan Zhonglang General Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan's original surname is Chu. Because of his swift and fierce actions, he was called the Feiyan thief. When Zhang Niujiao, the previous leader of the Black Mountain Army, passed away, he was identified as the next leader of the Black Mountain Army. Zhang Yan was grateful for his kindness, so he changed his name to Zhang. .

In this way, Zhang Yan is really a real person, for Zhang Niujiao to let him inherit the kindness of the leader of the Black Mountain Army, even his ancestors are not recognized.

What a sense of justice!If Zhang Yan's own father knew about it, he would come out of the graveyard and slap him a few times.

Today's Zhang Yan, known as the leader of the Yellow Turbans in the world, is also the number one official bandit in the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty. Not only is he ranked first among the Yellow Turbans, but he also has the right to be filial and honest in the court!It can be said to be black and white.

It's a pity that no matter how fierce Zhang Yan is, he can compete with anyone else in terms of points.

The world's number one thief is no match for the world's number one prince!

When Yuan Shao conquered Gongsun Zan last year, Zhang Yan was invited by Liu Bei to send troops to attack Yuan Shao together with Gongsun Zan.

Zhang Yanxiong left arrogantly, and returned in a panic.

He never dreamed that Yuan Shao would be so fierce, he was like a beast!

Not only did he not take advantage of this battle, but he almost didn't get shitted by Yuan Shao.

The so-called "million" generals of the Montenegro army were also beaten to pieces. Zhang Yan's important commander Qu Shuai died and was injured. The soldiers and horses fled in all directions. How tragic.

This happened only because although Zhang Yan’s subordinates claim to be in the millions, there are only a dozen or 20 young and strong who can really fight, and the remaining 80 people are purely make-up numbers, including old men with epilepsy and brains. There are old ladies with blood clots, little boys and girls who have no teeth, and housewives who wash and cook.

Although such soldiers and horses are strong, if they want to defeat Yuan Shao, there are only two words that can describe it—haha.
