Originally Jinan had been obtained, but Liu Hong suddenly recalled him to Luoyang, which made him depressed.

"Mengde!"

Cao Cao came out of his thoughts and looked at Yuan Shao who came to his side.

"What happened at the beginning?"

Yuan Shao smiled and said, "I heard that Meng De and Liu Qing know each other?"

Cao Cao nodded and did not deny it. It was Yuan Benchu ​​who was facing him. If it were anyone else, Cao Cao would choose to deny it.

"I heard that this man went to fight in various counties and killed the Yellow Turbans. Even Zhang Jiao was killed by him. It was rumored in Luoyang City that it was amazing." Yuan Shao paused and leaned towards Cao Cao on his horse, "This matter

Is it true?"

"Ho ho~" Cao Cao smiled but said nothing.

"Why is Mengde laughing?"

"I laugh at my ignorance of current affairs. If Mr. Liu Qing's merits are in vain, how could General Huangfu argue head-on with Shi Chang Shi in the court?" As he said, he looked back and saw

Zhang Rang, who had delivered the message, had already gone away, so he continued: "Then Zhao Changshi was deprived of his old residence because of this. Furthermore, the young master paid homage to the prefect of Yanmen. If his merits are not in vain, do you think your majesty will reward him? But he is

The son of King Bohai!"

When it came to the content after "Your Majesty", Cao Cao's voice was already very low.

Yuan Shao listened quietly, nodded slightly, then suddenly thought of something, and said, "Can Meng De introduce the young master?"

Yuan Shao also learned from Cao Cao's title.

"To be honest, the young master and I not only have a slight friendship, but we are also related!" Cao Cao said with a little pride, and he couldn't help but pretend to be in front of this best friend.

Just like in Deyuju, when you introduce some famous new friends, you always have this emotion: This is my friend!

"That……"

Cao Cao stroked his beard with a troubled look on his face, "The young master is far away in Yanmen County. You and I both have errands to do. How can we introduce him to you?"

Cao Cao pushed the issue back to Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao was also speechless. It was Yuan Kai's idea to make friends with Liu Qing.

In Yuan Wei's eyes, it was just right to give this task to Yuan Shao. First, Yuan Shao, as the chief eldest son of the Yuan family, could represent the Yuan family. Yuan Shao liked to make friends since he was a child. Even now, this has not changed. His younger brother Yuan Shu and

He is completely different.

After Liu Qing was promoted to the title of Marquis of Wuzhou, his brilliance could no longer be concealed. No matter He Jin or Yuan Wei, they could no longer ignore him and had to win over him with a clear stand, because they knew that Liu Qing's power in the court was

blank.

Yuan Shao frowned, looked for a time, and said: "When it's time, you and I will take leave and go outside the Great Wall!"

Cao Cao continued to smile and said nothing.

…

Guantao arrived at Guangzong and traveled for another two days.

Liu Hong left the chariot for the first time and came to the Jingguan with his sword in hand. The Jingguan was actually a mound of earth, compacted into a pyramid shape, nearly three feet high. Standing in front of it was like standing in front of a hill.

Over the past few months, many weeds have grown up on the Jingguan, adding to the desolation. Perhaps in a few years, this place will really become a hill.

Looking at Guangzong not far away, the environment here is indeed completely different from what you see on the road.

There are still many scars from the war left here. The land was blackened by the beacon fire, the abandoned and dilapidated camps, and even the fertile fields around Guangzong were all barren.

First, due to the war, spring plowing was missed; second, Guangzong was already an empty city because Huangfu Song massacred all the "Yellow Turbans" in the city.

For some reason, Liu Hong did not gain the so-called military power. Instead, his originally happy mood was filled with a hint of gloom. He returned to the chariot gloomily and ordered to continue marching north.

Cao Cao, on the other hand, stared blankly at the bleak scene in front of him, as if he was reminded of the wartime state. An inexplicable emotion accumulated in his heart. He wanted to express his feelings, but he couldn't find the right words for the moment.

The convoy set off again, turning northeast.

…

A war horse galloped into the brightly lit Guangping in the night.

In the past few days, Guo Jia had set up campfires at the city gates and city walls so that the sentries could bring the news back as quickly as possible, even at night.

Guo Jia lived in Liu Qing's former residence and listened to the report from the sentry.

"Master Wang has left Guangzong and headed northeast."

Guo Jia moved the pebbles on the map slightly to indicate the current position of Master Wang. He also had a message in his hand, which came from Yanmen.

The content of the letter is only a few words.

"Zhang Niujiao has stopped attacking Litao."

In the dim candlelight, Guo Jia showed a smile. Since Zhang Niujiao made some moves, it is not difficult to judge what will happen next.

Guo Jia suddenly called out: "Zilong!"

In the dimness, a dark figure suddenly squirmed and walked to Guo Jia's side.

Guo Jia pointed to the map and said, "Do you still remember where our army flooded Zhang Bao?"

Zhao Yun nodded, "Remember!"

"The water here is small in summer and the reeds are dense. Zilong led his cavalry to hide here. He paid close attention to the position of Zhang Niujiao and reported it to me every day."

"Here!"

"Filial father! You lead your troops along Fuliu and march down Bo. This road leads to the river successfully and is still smooth. You need to advance quickly and don't be caught by the bull's horns!"

"The military advisor has no worries. We will set off tonight if we fall into the camp. We will not stop until we reach the next level!" Gao Shun promised.

Guo Jia smiled and said: "Fellow father, there is no need to rush. Soldiers need to maintain their fighting strength and not be too tired. There is still some time before the war begins. Just send out the sentries and don't let them be discovered!"

"Here!"

Gao Shunyan finished and went out with Zhao Yun. The house became quiet again, and another person walked out of the darkness.

"Military advisor, what about me?" Zhu Ling asked.

"Wash and sleep!" After Guo Jia finished speaking, he also walked outside.
Chapter completed!
