Since the execution of Yan Liang and Wen Chou, there has almost never been a celebration banquet here. Even if there was, it was just a celebration banquet thrown together by Cao Cao to boost morale for some small victories.
But this time it's different.
Han Xun, who was on the same level as Yan Liangwen Chou, died!
Moreover, the 5,000 troops and horses brought were reduced by almost half, and the captured horses alone were nearly 2,000. For Cao's camp, which was depleted of men and horses, this was quite a rain.
Therefore, except for Cheng Yu's tribe in Yanzhou, Zang Ba's tribe in Xuzhou, and generals such as Xiahou Dun, Cao Hong, and Yu Jin who were not in the Guandu camp, almost everyone else attended the banquet.
The protagonists of the banquet were naturally Cao Ren and Zhao Yun, while He Yan was sitting alone in the corner of the tent.
However, someone soon discovered He Yan, and they didn't even want to take their own seats. They came over and sat next to He Yan, picked up the cup on He Yan's table and started drinking.
"Fengxiao! It's too much! This is just the amount for each of us. What should I drink if you drink it?"
Drinking is prohibited in the military.
It was during this celebration that Cao Cao rarely brought out fine wine and limited it to one glass per person. Now Guo Jia was not polite and went straight up and drank up He Yan's share.
"Young Master He has probably lived a fairy life in the rear, why do you still care about this fine wine?"
Guo Jia didn't take it seriously and even smacked his tongue after finishing the drink, as if he was aftertasteing it.
Only then did He Yan notice that it was not only Cao Cao who had lost weight. Even Guo Jia had been injured in the war and looked extremely weak.
"What are you doing in the military camp every day? Is it that you indulge in alcohol and sex every day?"
He Yan generously placed a plate of dried mulberries on the table in front of Guo Jia. Guo Jia was not polite, picked it up and started knocking it.
"I would like to indulge in wine and sex, but where is there such a place in this military camp? Don't you think I don't even have to drink?"
Guo Jia put his hand on He Yan's shoulder: "Master He, is there a new member of the female concubine in Xuchang City?"
"What kind of girl? I don't know."
"..."
Guo Jia slightly squinted his eyes, his eyes full of contempt.
He Yan said that he was indeed innocent because he already had a "private club", and Xuchang Nvlu... really didn't like it.
Chatting with Guo Jia, Guo Jia quickly cleaned the food on He Yan's table. When He Yan wanted to have a meal, there was only a bowl of corn...
"You starved to death and were reincarnated!"
"almost."
After eating, Guo Jia finally regained some of his luster: "There is really a shortage of food and grass for the heavenly army these days, otherwise Sikong would not have sent Xia Houyuan to Xuzhou to collect military rations. After all, Xuzhou...you also know it."
Unless absolutely necessary, Cao Cao would not take advantage of Xuzhou.
In addition to his reputation in Xuzhou, Xuzhou was actually entrusted by Cao Cao to the Zangba force long ago, and it cannot be regarded as Cao Cao's direct sphere of influence. Now sending Xia Houyuan to Xuzhou is actually considered to have crossed the line.
He Yan was secretly speechless after hearing this.
At this point in the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao was really exhausted.
If the confrontation continues until next year, even if Cao Cao still has the determination to persist, the materials in the Central Plains will not allow him to persist any longer.
After thinking about this, He Yan also softened his heart for a while.
He wanted to push his bowl of corn to Guo Jia: "Here you go."
Guo Jia was a little surprised, but quickly shook his head and refused: "Tired of eating!"
"..."
He Yan rolled his eyes and immediately withdrew his sympathy for Guo Jia.
Still not hungry enough!
While Guo Jia came and He Yan was cleaning up the food, others also entered the military tent one after another.
Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, Xun You, Jia Xu...
One by one, the thunderous names sat down one by one, and soon, the most popular person in Cao's camp also came to the camp.
"Yun Chang?"
"Is it really you? Zilong?"
Zhao Yun and Guan Yu were almost like bastards looking at Mung Bean. They immediately made eye contact and quickly locked onto each other in the vast crowd.
Zhao Yun was still accepting the compliments from the people around him just now, but now he jumped up and walked quickly to Guan Yu and opened his arms.
Guan Yu's cold and arrogant face also turned into a smile when he saw Zhao Yun, and he hugged Zhao Yun's arms directly: "I didn't expect it was really you! Let me tell you! How can there be a second person in the world who kills Han Xun?
Zhao Yun!"
At this time, Zhao Yun and Guan Yu, who were colleagues, burst into tears when they saw their colleagues, and they immediately started chatting at the celebration banquet.
Zhao Yun started talking about meeting Liu Bei in Yecheng and how he joined Cao's army to kill Han Xun. Guan Yu also told Zhao Yun about his past after coming to Cao's camp.
The two of them, one from Hedong and the other from Changshan, both spoke very fast and did not give others a chance to interrupt. Even Boss Cao had no chance to join the conversation several times.
Boss Cao's embarrassment naturally fell into the eyes of He Yan and Guo Jia.
He Yan also snickered: "Sikong is just like a little daughter-in-law, how miserable!"
After hearing He Yan's words, Guo Jia could only sigh, "What a loving father and filial son."
"It's more than that."
Guo Jia looked at Guan Yu: "Today's Sikong needs a loyal person like Yun Chang."
"Um?"
"Just setting an example."
Guo Jia leaned back: "Nowadays, there are countless people in this military camp who are having an affair with Yuan Shao opposite. There are only a few people that Sikong can really trust."
"What's more, Yunchang beheaded Yan Liang, which almost offended Yuan Shao to death. Treating Yunchang so kindly can actually be regarded as showing everyone's determination to fight against Yuan Shao."
He Yan struggled for a while: "In other words, doesn't Sikong really like Yun Chang?"
"Of course I like it."
"only……"
Guo Jia relied on He Yan without any image: "Love must have limits."
He Yan touched his chin: "I see..."
Guan Yu is important, but the most important thing is the victory in the Battle of Guandu.
But then again... Boss Cao’s dog-licking attitude is also just an act?
"Oh, man."
He Yan shook his head again, sitting there alone not knowing what to think.
"Where are you, Mr. He?"
Guo Jia asked Xiang He Yan again: "It's hard to come to Guandu. What do you think of the frontline war?"
"I'll lie down and watch!"
He Yan immediately spread his hands and said, "Sikong has asked me to manage food and grass with Liu Ye. The war has nothing to do with me."
"Manage grain and grass?"
Guo Jia suddenly thought of a very important question——
I saw him pulling He Yan with his eyes shining: "Then from now on, the dispatch of the military camp supplies will be under your control? Will I be able to drink wine at any time?"
He Yan also smiled: "You actually thought of something that Sikong didn't even think of! As expected of you!"
Guo Jia licked his lips, and his smile gradually became wilder.
