With the road news provided by Xuanbo, he walked smoothly and did not suffer too much trouble.
However, after entering the alert range of former general Duan Wei, the soldiers of the Xiliang army looked at him with a bad look, which made him frightened and dared not be presumptuous.
Recognizing this made Guo Tu even more injured than torture after several days.
Yuan Shao had more than 100,000 troops, but he did not dare to fight with the Xiliang soldiers.
However, the emperor defeated Li Jue with thousands of tired soldiers and cut off Li Jue's head with his own hands.
Could it be that the great Han Dynasty's fire virtue is immortal?
If this is true, then it is conceivable what outcome Yuan Shao will face.
Guo Tu is sick, her forehead is burning and she is still talking nonsense.
The attendant was so scared that he didn't dare to neglect his feelings, and rushed to the road in a hurry.
Guo Tu was drowsy, with the sound of hooves in his ears, as if thousands of troops were running towards him, making him inexplicably afraid and screamed.
When he recovered his mind, he was already in the inn outside Hongnong City, with a familiar face in front of him.
Guo Tu took a lot of effort to recognize who it was.
"Gongda, why are you... here?" He looked around. "Where is this?"
Xun You leaned over and looked at Guo Tu with a hint of pity in his eyes. "Cao Yangting."
"Cao Yangting?" Guo Tu was stunned for a while before he realized. He had already rushed for more than 300 miles and could soon cross the Yellow River and leave Hongnong County. He felt a little more at ease and felt relieved.
He snored, lay back.
"Why did you get this?"
Guo Tu sighed and asked without answering a question. "Gongda, where are you going?"
Xun You sat back. "See the car."
"See you?" Guo Tu stared at Xun You and looked again and again, tentatively: "Your tribe members are all in Yecheng, why not follow me to Yecheng to meet Benchu?"
Xun You smiled but said nothing.
Guo Tu didn't take it too seriously.
Xun You lost his father at a young age and was raised by his grandfather. He developed a taciturn character and had no contact with most people. Guo Tu was not familiar with him either, but he heard Xun Yu mention it once, and he didn't think Xun You had any extraordinary things.
Place.
Besides, he knew that Xun You had no interest in Yuan Shao, and his proposal was just out of politeness.
At this moment, he had no interest or energy to talk to Xun You, and just wanted to eat something to replenish his energy.
Seeing this, Xun You said a few polite words and took the initiative to say goodbye.
The servants were ordered to send Xun You away, and Guo Tu asked if he had said anything to Xun You. The servants shook their heads repeatedly. They were all people who had followed Guo Tu for many years, and they were very nervous and knew what to say and what not to say. Guo Tu met the emperor when he met the emperor.
They did not mention any words of what happened.
But the attendant also reminded Guo Tu that Xun You would know what was going on to meet the car sooner or later.
Guo Tu became even more irritable and ordered his servants to prepare for food immediately and prepare to continue on the road.
Xun You stood under the corridor, watching Guo Tu's carriage and horses drive out of the post house and leave.
He snorted softly and stepped out of the door.
"Master, isn't the emperor coming? Why don't we wait here but we have to travel west?" The gray-haired head raised his luggage and caught up with Xun You, and couldn't help asking.
"We are one step late and can't miss out on opportunities."
Cangtou turned his head and looked surprised.
It was the first time he had followed Xun You so urgently after so many years.
Xun You did not explain. He took a bag from Cangtou and looked at the sky.
"Today I worked hard, I rushed to Hongnong to drink and eat meat, and borrowed another car."
Cangtou smiled, responded, and speeded up.
The two of them walked in a hurry and finally entered Hongnong City before the sun set. Xun You did not go to the post house, but went directly to General Zuo Yang Feng's military camp and signed up for a visit.
"The prefect of Shu County, Xun You of Yingchuan asked for a visit."
The guards guarding the gate glanced at Xun You and did not dare to neglect. "General Zuo was practicing military force outside the city and had not returned to the mansion. Please come in and sit for a while. Wait until General Zuo returns to the mansion, and inform him immediately."
Xun You nodded and thanked him, saying casually. "General Zuo is a good idea to train troops, but I have heard of it for a long time."
The guard grinned, unable to hide his complacency in his heart. "General Zuo's training method was taught by the emperor himself, so it was really good. If it weren't for this, General Zuo could not defeat Li Jue and made a meritorious service."
"So that's it." Xun You said: "No wonder the military discipline is so good, and it is praised by the people."
"That's it." The guard was happy and even more enthusiastic. While someone was preparing tea and snacks, he led Xun You to the front courtyard and sat down, while patting his chest and saying, "The emperor said that the soldiers under General Zuo were different from others and were all from poor people.
Joining the army is not only for the sake of eating food by itself, but also for a way out for the poor people in the world. This is something that can never be done to rob the people..."
Cangtou couldn't help but say, "Will the emperor say that?"
The guard turned to look at Cangtou, his expression was not depressed. "Old man, I am a soldier under General Zuo. I have fought side by side with the emperor. How could I lie to you?" As he said, he helped Cangtou unload his luggage.
Put it aside.
Cangtou was very grateful and thanked him repeatedly.
The guard waved his hand. "It's okay, it's a simple task. I'm going to tell you that I'm also a poor man, and my father was a slave. Because of a trivial matter, he was beaten to death by his master."
The guard said, his eyes turned red, his eyes showed a fierce look, and his hands holding the knife were tightly held, with blue veins exposed.
Cangtou was very embarrassed.
Xun You said slowly: "I am a man of my elders and others, and I am kind and worthy of being under General Zuo."
The guard smiled embarrassedly, raised his arm, wiped away the tears, and turned around and left.
Someone brought tea and snacks, and Cangtou took them, arranged them back and forth, serving Xun You to drink water and eat.
"Master, I have heard that although the emperor is young, he is a benevolent and righteous wise monarch. It seems that it is indeed not bad. It is true that the master did not go to Shu County to take office."
Xun You nodded, took a sip of water, and glanced at the soldiers coming and going in the yard from time to time.
Although most of these soldiers looked dark and had worn-out clothes and armor, they could tell at a glance that they were from poor people, but they were energetic.
"A gentleman is virtuous, and a villain is virtuous. If you can train the old Yellow Turban tribes into this, the emperor has extraordinary advantages."
"Yes, yes." Cangtou smiled so that his forehead wrinkles lightened. "The old master often said that it would be better than good. The great man suffered this disaster, but he also got a young hero. Maybe he would be better than good as good as good as good as good."
The two of them talked for a while, and the guard who had just received them walked over quickly with his knife.
"Jun Xun, General Zuo is back. Please follow me."
Xun You had just gotten up and before he could put on his shoes, Yang Feng rushed over with great strides. When he saw Xun You, he immediately slowed down, raised his hands, and showed a bright smile.
"Is Xun Jun of Yingchuan? Yang Feng is here to meet you, so I'm lucky."
Xun You bowed and returned the greeting. "General Zuo, You came uninvited and disturbed him."
"Hahaha..." Yang Feng couldn't stop smiling.
He did not know Xun You, but the title of the prefect of Shu County and the Xun family in Yingchuan was enough to make him extremely excited.
After being in the army for so long, this is the first time that a famous scholar has taken the initiative to visit.
