There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

……

At this moment, in the camp of the potter on the other side, the potter was writing letters to Cao Cao and Yuan Shao respectively according to Guo Jia's instructions.

After writing the letter, Guo Jia helped Tao Business School again, pointed out two typos in the letter to him very bluntly, and then sent someone to send out the two letters separately.

After the arrangements were made, the pottery merchant asked Guo Jia with some doubts: "How can you be sure that if Lu Bu loses to Yuan Shao, he will definitely attack my camp with the pretext of retreating?"

Guo Jia shook his head and said, "Guo doesn't dare to be so sure, but Lv Bu's attack on Yuan Shao's camp this time was based on Dong Zhuo's iron order. It is impossible to explain to Dong Zhuo, so if he can't defeat Yuan Shao's camp, he must find a way to find another victory, so it can be regarded as blocking the mouths of Dong Zhuo and the generals of Xiliang."

Hearing this, the pottery merchant was a little out of breath.

"What? Isn't this bullying? Yuan Shao is the leader of the princes, and Cao Cao is Dong Zhuo's mortal enemy. Let these two people not fight, but come around to fight me to win the battle? What does Lu Bu mean? Tao is a soft persimmon. It’s very tactile to pinch.”

Guo Jia smiled and said, "Anyway, compared to Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, you must be the weakest. If you don't beat me, who will you beat? And... what are persimmons?"

"What is this called? I am the one who defeated Yuan Shu's [-] troops in Ruxuwu. Why do you say I am the weakest?"

Guo Jia smiled and said: "You defeated Yuan Shu's army, a large part of it was due to Yuan Shu's extremely wrong strategy and luck. In terms of age, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are much older than you. Both of them are Xiyuan Eighth Colonel was born, he is the direct descendant of General He Jin, when they are calling for the clouds and rain in the court, are you afraid that you will still follow your father crying for milk?"

The potter's face was a little purple, and these words were too irritating.

The guy surnamed Guo didn't have any logic at all. What does it mean to follow my father and ask for milk?It's no wonder it's coming out!

If you want milk, you have to ask my mother!

The potter curled his lips and changed the subject, "How do you think Lu Bu will sneak attack on my barracks?"

Guo Jiadao: "The people under Lü Bu's command are all strong generals who are good at fighting, but they don't have a mastermind. According to Guo, his attack method must be very simple. He pretended to retreat from Yuan Shao's Dazhai and return to Zhongmou County. On the way, he suddenly turned back with his carbine and charged directly at our Xuzhou army camp... that's all, nothing more."

Pottery merchant raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and said: "No wonder, you just wrote the time in the letter, and you asked Yuan Shao and Cao Cao to send troops to our army camp, and you wanted them to join me inside and outside to attack Lu Bu."

Guo Jia smiled and nodded, and said: "To deal with such reckless people, we naturally have to use the most direct means. This battle will definitely defeat Lu Bu, and it will also raise your prestige, Mr. Taiping. After all, the opponent is The world's most powerful general, not everyone has a chance to fight him off head-on, if this battle is successful, can you increase Guo's annual salary?"

Chapter 256 The One Who Saves His Life

Dong Zhuo's army marched out of Chang'an, and now it was the boundary of Shouyang Mountain.

In Dong Zhuo's central army, the chief general of the town army who was ordered to take charge of the three armies for Dong Zhuo was Li Jue, the number one general in the Liangzhou army.

Li Jue was the number one skilled general in Dong Zhuo's army. Not only was he extremely brave in combat, but he also had a bit of military strategy. According to Liu Ai, the chief historian at the time, Li Jue's ability to use troops should not be inferior to that of Sun Jian.

Of course, this kind of personal view also has his individuality and prejudice.

But there is no doubt that among the generals in Liangzhou, Li Jue is indeed second to none, no matter in terms of strength or status, no one else can compare.

It is precisely because of this ability and status that Li Jue has a lot of friends in the Xiliang Army. His network of relationships is so large that it almost covers all the barracks of the Xiliang Army.

However, although there are many generals at all levels who have a good relationship with Li Jue, according to Li Jue's current status in the Liangzhou Army, he doesn't think much of most of these people. After all, his identity is there. Not just any cat or dog can call him a brother.

But there are exceptions to everything. In the end, there are still some talented people with low official positions who can still be admired by Li Jue, and he is willing to make friends with them.

One of Dong Zhuo's son-in-laws, Niu Fuying, was very important in Li Jue's eyes and was recognized by him.

This person is Jia Xu, the captain of the captive school.

Jia Xu is 46 years old. He is in his fifties. He used to be a celebrity in Liangzhou, but then he disappeared and is not very famous. In terms of official positions, Jia Xu is not very high. Many people think that He was in a daze, and he had reached such an age in a flash, which was a waste of his family's resources.

In this society where the average age is not high, people who are running fifty can already be regarded as having today but not tomorrow.

Jia Xu is also a member of the petty gentry. He spent his whole life being a captain of a miscellaneous number, but the result is really horrible.

It's not that Jia Xu has no talent, it's because his personality is too low-key and gloomy, and he rarely calls out friends with others. In addition, he always conceals his knowledge intentionally or unintentionally, so he knows his ability. There are not many people.

It was also by chance that Li Jue knew that Jia Xu really had some abilities, and since then, he has just paid attention to him, and deliberately fell in love with him.

On the other hand, Jia Xu has a calm personality and a weird mind. When there is no danger, he also acquiesced in Li Jue's behavior of going up the pole. After all, having an extra backstage, his own safety will be more guaranteed.

……

In the evening when the Liangzhou army was stationed in Shouyang Mountain, Li Jue came to chat with Jia Xu again, carrying a jug of wine.

Jia Xu is a military officer, but the interesting thing is that he is always dressed as a shabby scribe, unless he is in a battle, or in the army, he seldom wears armor.

This may be a manifestation of his literati status.

Li Jue didn't need to be notified, and walked into Jia Xu's tent without the curtain, showing his thick skin.

He smiled at Jia Xu carelessly, and said, "Wen He, what are you doing? See what I brought you?"

Jia Xu was reading with her head down at the moment, when she heard Li Jue's voice, her eyes buried in the bamboo slips rolled subconsciously.

Why is this guy here again?As a general in the Chinese army, why is he so idle every day?

Jia Xu's appearance is very ordinary, so ordinary that at first glance, it is not much different from a farmer who is about to have a grandson, the kind that cannot be found immediately when thrown in a crowd.

Jia Xu put down the bamboo slips in his hand, stood up, and said to Li Jue respectfully, "I have seen the general, and the general is coming, how can I not send someone to inform me next time, so I can make some preparations."

Li Jue waved his hand with a smile, telling him that there is no need to be formal.

He himself was not polite, found a limp and sat down cross-legged, put the wine on the table, and said with a smile: "Are you being polite between the two of us? See what I brought you? Good royal wine, bestowed by the Prime Minister!"

Jia Xu's expression was very flat: "Thank you General, you know, I don't drink alcohol on weekdays."

Li Jue persuaded him with a smile: "There is something happy today, so you have to drink a little!"

Jia Xu shook his head vigorously. He is very assertive in this regard and doesn't give anyone face.

"Back to the general, I really don't like drinking... No, it should be said that I don't drink. And this is on the march. Even though there is no alcohol prohibition in our Xiliang army, I really think that drinking in the army Inappropriate move."

Li Jue muttered to himself, this half old man is really boring.

But Li Jue is not angry, he has known Jia Xu for a long time, and knows that his personality is really weird.

This old guy looks very easy-going, but in fact he is very principled. He really never does what he doesn't want to do, and it's not easy for King Yan to persuade him.

Not only does he not drink alcohol, he doesn't even eat much meat. He looks like he is cultivating immortality every day, and he doesn't know what kind of magic to become an immortal.

But what's interesting is that the people Jia Xu doesn't want to do are all small things in life, and they won't offend his boss Ni Lin, at most they think others are a bit rigid.

"Wenhe, why don't I understand? This wine and meat are so good! Why don't you try it? Now the world is in chaos, the land is barren, and there are many places in the Kanto states where there is even no harvest. , some people even change their sons to eat each other! Being able to eat wine and meat in this troubled world is the dream of many people, but you are lucky, there are good products in front of you, but you don’t even touch them... Tell me, why are you unwilling to eat and drink?"

Jia Xu said casually, "Death is fast."

"Ah?" Li Jue was stunned when he heard this.

Jia Xu poured Li Jue a glass of water, handed it over, and said, "Wine and meat are addictive and harmful to the body. Excessive consumption can easily shorten the life expectancy, and it is also easy to mess up the mind, so I don't eat."

Li Jue took the cup, took a sip, and said, "Wine and meat can shorten your life? This is the first time I've heard of it...then why don't you eat less?"
