Three Kingdoms King of the North

"Brother is here too!" Hearing Zhao Yun's voice, Han Zhan felt more at ease. Regardless of Yan Liangchou's superb martial arts skills, the two of them faced Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, and Dian Wei at the same time, and only the one who gave away the head end.Zhao Yun's arrival became the last straw that broke the camel's camel's back, and Chou's men fled in all directions.

Seeing that his subordinates had been killed and scattered, Chou hurriedly feinted his shot, forcing Dian Wei to retreat, and then pulled his horse and fled towards Yan Liang's position.Zhao Yun and Dian Wei followed closely behind.

On the official road to the south, Yan Liang, who had been inseparable from Huang Zhong's killing, suddenly saw Chou fleeing in a panic, followed by a general with a spear and a pair of halberds. Zhao Yun and Dian Wei rushed over.

Yan Liang and Huang Zhong had been fighting for a long time, and they were already exhausted. At this moment, in order to save the ugly, he couldn't care less, rushed forward, and slashed down on Zhao Yun.Zhao Yun smashed his broadsword away with the long spear in his hand, and then came a sweeping move, sweeping towards his neck.Yan Liang shrank his head in fright and avoided Zhao Yun's fatal shot, but his helmet was swept away by the point of the gun.

Yan Liang didn't dare to fight, so he fled southward with Chou, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, and Dian Wei followed closely behind.When the two fled into the formation, Yuan Bing immediately surrounded Zhao Yun and the others, greeted with long spears and short knives, and shot two cold arrows from time to time, making Zhao Yun and the others overwhelmed.

Han Zhan was deeply afraid that Zhao Yun and others might make mistakes, so he quickly ordered Ming Jin.When Zhao Yun heard Ming Jin's voice, he stopped fighting and retreated slowly.

When Zhao Yun came in front of him, Han Zhan held his hand and said excitedly, "If the eldest brother and Dian Wei hadn't arrived in time, I guess the life of this Marquis would have been given here." After saying the words of gratitude, he Suddenly remembered, why did Zhao Yun and Dian Wei appear in such a timely manner?Then he asked curiously: "Brother, aren't you in Jizhou? Why did you appear here?"

Under the eyes of everyone, Zhao Yun did not call Han Zhan brothers, but replied respectfully: "Xun Gongda received the letter sent by the lord, and he is very relieved to know that the emperor has been rescued from Chang'an. Who knows Later, when I heard that the lord stayed behind, the Ju Supervisor Army and the others led the holy car ahead, fearing that the lord might be in danger, so they ordered the soldiers to come to meet him."

Han Zhan cast his eyes on Dian Wei who was at the side, and then asked, "How did Dian Wei get here?"

"Reply to my lord," Dian Wei quickly replied, "I escorted Shengjia with the Jujian army. After crossing the Yellow River, we joined the army led by Mr. Guo and returned to Guantao. Just in time to meet General Zhao coming, Guo When the master saw Zilong, he kept screaming, saying that the lord might be in great trouble, so he ordered me to lead the troops to accompany General Zilong to meet the lord. As soon as we left the city, we met the cavalry sent by the lord to ask for help, so we rushed to chase him away. come over."

After listening to Zhao Yun and Dian Wei's narration, Han Zhan finally understood why they came so timely.At the same time, he felt a little dissatisfied with Guo Jia, feeling that he was not as amazing as recorded in history.

When passing the place where the battle had just been fought, the corpses on the ground had been packed up.When Han Zhan saw the corpse of the cavalry governor lying on the ground, he turned his head and said to Huang Zhong, "If the cavalry governor hadn't led fifty cavalrymen to fight to the death, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to wait for Zilong and Dianwei to arrive. Han Sheng, find a place immediately, Bury them well."

Han Zhan led the army to Guantao, Guo Jia, Gao Lan and others were already waiting at the city gate.

After meeting the two of them, Han Zhan asked Guo Jia, "Feng Xiao, where are Ju Jianjun and Sheng Jia now?"

"Return to the lord," Guo Jia replied respectfully, "They have already set off to return to Jizhou." He was worried that Han Zhan would chase Han Xiandi without dismounting his horse and saddle on a whim, so he persuaded him: " My lord, how about the soldiers working hard all the way, resting in Guantao for one night, and then returning to Jizhou?"

In fact, even if Guo Jia didn't say anything, Han Zhan didn't want to leave.He pushed the boat smoothly and said: "In this case, the army will rest here for one night, and it will not be too late to rush to Jizhou tomorrow."

After dinner, he summoned Wu from Guantao City to perform a ceremony.He said to Zhao Yun: "Zilong, Ben Hou originally wanted to wait for the spring, so he ordered you and Xun Gongda to lead the army to capture Qingzhou. However, if the army is deployed at the beginning of spring, it may delay the spring plowing and sowing and affect the harvest of Qingzhou. In Qingzhou, the people will still struggle to survive due to lack of food. Therefore, this Marquis plans to postpone the expedition until summer."

Hearing what Han Zhan said, Zhao Yun, Guo Jia and others said in unison: "My lord is wise!"

After discussing for a while, Han Zhan asked everyone to retreat, leaving Guo Jia alone.He said casually: "Feng Xiao, this time the Marquis met a person on the road, and he has some relationship with you?"

When Guo Jia heard what Han Zhan said, he couldn't help being taken aback, and asked, "I have some relationship with me, I don't know who the lord is talking about?"

Han Zhan asked with a smile, "Do you still remember Bagu, the bustard in Huanuange, Sheguo County?"

"Remember, remember." Guo Jia used to regard Huanuange as his home, and lived there for several months, so there was no reason why he didn't remember Bagu, the old bustard.But he asked puzzledly: "My lord, why did you think of asking her? Could it be that she was the person you met on the road?"

"Exactly." Han Zhan nodded and said, "This time I was hunted down by Li Guo's soldiers. Rob was seriously injured in order to save me. It was Ba Gu who saved him. According to Ben Hou's observation, Ba Gu It seems that he has a little interest in Rob, and intends to make them happy, I wonder if Feng Xiao is willing to be this matchmaker?"

When Guo Jia heard about this, he laughed twice, and replied: "This is a good thing for the beauty of adults. There is no reason for Guo to refuse. If the master is not too quick, you might as well let the two of them talk to each other tonight." Just get married."

"It's too early to get married tonight." Han Zhan waved his hands and said, "Rob is seriously injured, and his mind is still not clear at the moment. If he wants to have a wedding ceremony, he will have to wait two months."

The two chatted for a few more words, and Guo Jia suddenly said with some embarrassment: "My lord, I have something to say, I don't know whether to say it or not!"

Seeing Guo Jia's hesitant speech, Han Zhan felt a little displeased: "Feng Xiao, you are the military advisor of this Marquis, so just say what you have to say, don't be so condescending."

"Although the lord rescued the holy car from Chang'an, the military officials are still in the capital." Guo Jia frowned and said to Han Zhan: "If Li Jue, Guo Si and others establish a new king, then everything we have done will be in vain. gone."

Guo Jia's words were like a slap in the face, causing Han Zhan to fight a cold war. He only thought about how to rescue Han Xiandi, but he didn't expect that without all the military officials, what's the use of having an emperor.If Li and Guo declared to the world that Emperor Xian of the Han died suddenly and supported a new emperor, the Emperor Xian of Han in their hands would not only fail to help, but would become a hidden danger.

Thinking of this, he asked tremblingly: "Feng Xiao, I understand what you mean. If Li Guo and Li Guo support the new king, they can tell the world that we have someone pretending to be a saint, and they can order the princes to besiege us. Right? ?”

"That's right." Regarding Han Zhan's guess, Guo Jia nodded, expressing his affirmation: "As soon as the new king ascends the throne, our Jizhou will become the target of public criticism. At that time, let alone conquest of Qingzhou and pacification of Bingzhou, even defend Jizhou. It is also a problem. And once the righteousness is lost, we will face the situation of betrayal.”

Guo Jia's words made Han Zhan break out in a cold sweat, and he quickly asked Guo Jia for advice: "Feng Xiao, I don't know how to overcome the current difficulties?"

"We can only take risks," Guo Jia said carefully, "send competent people to see Li Guo, Xu and the high-ranking Marquis, and let them send all the military officials to Jizhou, and then our crisis will be solved .”

"But, who should we send?" Han Zhan felt that what Guo Jia said was a solution, but he was worried about the candidates for the envoy. If the envoys we sent could not persuade Li and Guo, they would only make things worse. "Feng Xiao, do you have a suitable candidate?"

"There is one." Han Zhan just asked casually with a fluke mentality, but Guo Jia replied confidently: "Once this person comes out, with his eloquence, he will definitely be able to convince Li and Guo that they will Hundreds of officials sent to Jizhou."

Hearing that there are such talents in Jizhou, Han Zhan couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked: "Feng Xiao, I don't know who you are talking about?"

"Shi Tao and Shi Guangyuan."

"That friend of Xu Shu and Xu Yuanzhi?"

"Exactly!"

Han Zhan was a little hesitant about the talents recommended by Guo Jia. Although this person, Cui Zhouping, Meng Gongwei, Xu Yuanzhi and others were called the "Four Friends of Zhuge", there was no detailed record of his ability in the history books. Han Zhan I only remember that this person later defected to Cao Cao, was appointed as the lieutenant of Diannong, and served as a sheriff for one term.

"My lord," seeing Han Zhan not speaking for a long time, Guo Jia urged, "I wonder if you think this person is okay?"

Han Zhan thought quickly in his mind, thinking that since this person was appointed by Cao Cao as the lieutenant and county guard of Diannong, it proved that he still had real talents and real learning.You might as well send him to try it, anyway, the worst situation is that Li and Guo are just pretending to be holy orders, and let the princes of the world raise troops to attack themselves.

Thinking of this, Han Zhan nodded and said, "Since he was recommended by Feng Xiao, then Benhou naturally has no objection. When we return to Jizhou, we will order him to go to Chang'an as an envoy to find a way to rescue the military officials."

Seeing that Han Zhan agreed to his proposal, Guo Jia couldn't help being overjoyed, and hurriedly saluted Han Zhan deeply, saying: "My lord declares!"

After talking about the big things, Han Zhan and Guo Jia chatted about private matters again: "Feng Xiao, I wonder if Zhao Ji has sent a letter to Jizhou while I'm away?"

Guo Jia shook his head after hearing this, and said, "Zhaoji is keeping a filial piety for Cai Shizhong, maybe she can't take care of her children's love." After saying this, seeing Han Zhan's face dimmed, he quickly added, "But from Guo's point of view, Ms. Cai will never forget my lord." His words made Han Zhan happy again.

"By the way," talking about Cai Yan, Han Zhan suddenly thought of Lu Bu who crossed the Yellow River with Sheng Jia, and beside him was a world-famous beauty, Diao Chan, but he didn't know where they went: "And The Ju Supervisor Army is accompanied by Lu Bu and a few of his subordinates, where are they now?"

"After Ju Jianjun joined us with his chariot, Lu Fengxian took a few people and headed south, saying that he was going to join Yuan Shu." Guo Jia said expressionlessly: "But there is a man named Zhang Liao and Zhang Yuan. Instead, he took four men named Cheng Lian, Wei Xu, Song Xian, and Hou Cheng to stay, and followed the Ju Supervisor Army to Jizhou."

Han Zhan never thought that Lu Bu would submit to him. He was with him at that time, but because he was cornered by Li Guo's soldiers and horses, he took shelter with him temporarily.Now that he has passed the Yellow River, he has left Li Guo's sphere of influence, and he can do whatever he wants.As for the stay of Zhang Liao and others, Han Zhan was far beyond expectations. This can be regarded as an unexpected surprise.

Chapter 230 New strategy

After Han Zhan waited for Guo Jia to leave, he got up and came to the backyard of the guard's mansion.He didn't go back to the room where he lived, but went straight to the room where Rob was recuperating.

Seeing Han Zhan's arrival, the sergeant outside the door quickly knelt down on one knee and saluted him: "See my lord!"

Han Zhan waved his hands at them, looked into the room, and asked with concern: "How is the situation inside, is Rob awake?"

The sergeant shook his head and said: "My lord, he hasn't woken up until now. Doctor Hua is treating his wounds inside."

"The Marquis knows." Han Zhan walked over, opened the curtain blocking the door, and walked into the room.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw that Rob was lying on the bed, Hua Tuo was bandaging his wound, while Ba Gu was squatting aside, staring at the still unconscious Rob with concern on his face.

Han Zhan didn't speak, just stood aside, quietly watching Hua Tuo who was busy.After dressing the wound, Hua Tuo raised his head inadvertently, saw Han Zhan standing aside, and said with some surprise: "I don't know when Tinghou came, but the old man didn't notice it, please forgive me."

"Master Hua is exempt." Han Zhan waved his hand at him, and asked with concern, "I wonder how Rob's injury is? When will he recover?"

Hua Tuo wiped his hands clean, got up and twirled his beard and said, "His injury needs to be recuperated. If he can stay here for a few more days, he can recover faster."
