Chapter 1486: Backfire (Page 1/1)

When he came to Yuan Shao's camp again, Shi Tao could not see anything on his face, but his heart was a little upset. Last time he sent a message for Guo Jia, asking Guo Tu to break up with the Guo family in Yangdi. He still remembered the look of Lao Guo Tu's desire to eat people. However, seeing the obviously shrinking camp of Yuan's army, especially the low morale of the central army, he had confidence again.

Yuan Shao was seriously injured, Yuan Jun was at a dead end, and Guo Tu was no exception. What's there to be afraid of?

Shi Tao stood outside the tent of the Central Army with his hands behind his back, leisurely looking at the people coming and going, looking for clues from the faces of these generals and officials. He looked for a while, and saw the chief clerk Geng Bao, the chief clerk Chen Lin, and many others, but he did not see Guo Tu and Ju Su. It seems that as Guo Jia expected, the situation in Yuan's army was worrying and was about to collapse.

"Come in." The door of the tent was raised, and a young attendant looked at Shi Tao coldly. Shi Tao lowered his head into the tent. Seeing that the chairman was empty, Guo Tu sat in the upper head, and the guest seat in the lower head was also empty. Shi Tao took his seat and saluted Guo Tu. While eating dinner, Guo Tu looked at the official document and glanced at Shi Tao with a cold expression. Shi Tao smiled slightly and had nothing to say.

"Mr. Guo eats so lightly, is he overworked and has poor stomach?"

Guo Tu was stunned, looked at the porridge in the bowl, then looked at Shi Tao, and snorted, wanting to speak but stopped. He ate light not because of poor stomach, but because Yuan Jun lost most of the supplies. The remaining food could not last for a few days, and everyone's food rations were reduced. Yuan Jun was seriously injured and could not swallow it. As Yuan Shao's confidant, he could not eat and drink in front of Yuan Shao, deliberately making Yuan Shao angry.

"You are careful when you speak, and showing off your words will only bring disaster."

"Mr. Guo has taught me a lesson." Shi Tao closed his mouth and never said a word again.

Guo Tu waited for a long time, and saw that he really stopped talking, he was both funny and angry. He originally wanted to kill Shi Tao's majesty, but he didn't expect Shi Tao to be so real. He coughed, put down the bowl, wiped his mouth with a cloth towel, and closed the official document. "What's the matter with you here?"

Shi Tao blinked. "I asked to meet Yuan's envoy and turn swords into jade and silk."

"Since that's the case, why don't you say a word?"

Shi Tao looked at the empty chairman. "Before the envoy Yuan arrived, Guo Gong didn't like me to say too much, so I had to sit quietly and wait."

"Envoy Yuan is busy with affairs and has no time to see you, so just tell me."

Shi Tao looked a little surprised. "Is Yuan Envoy... seriously injured and dying?"

"Nonsense!" Guo Tu lowered his face. "Yuan Envoy Yuan is busy with military affairs. He doesn't have time to see you. He tells me what he has to do and leaves if he doesn't say anything. I'm very busy and don't have time to sit with you."

Shi Tao said "Oh" and scratched his head, making a little embarrassed. "Mr. Guo is the confidant of Yuan Envoy, and it has nothing to do with you. There is just one thing. I must meet Yuan Envoy in person, and it is not convenient to tell you."

"Then stop talking."

"That's fine." Shi Tao didn't insist. "Let's just talk about something that can be said. Mr. Guo must also know that Han Yin is Han Sui's son. He was unfortunately killed and died in a different place. My general was not very good at explaining to Han Sui, so he sent me to discuss with Yuan Envoy Yuan to exchange the bodies of the fallen soldiers, especially Han Yin's. We plan to exchange Han Xun's corpse. It's a coincidence that he has a surname, and his head and body, and his status is similar to Han Yin in terms of identity and status. Mr. Guo shouldn't refuse, right?"

When Guo Tu heard that Han Xun was killed, he felt nervous. Han Xun was from Yingchuan. He performed well in this battle and was waiting to be promoted after the war. Unexpectedly, he was killed first. Guo Tu's hands were wrapped in his sleeves, holding them together, and was silent for a moment. "Since Han Yin's identity is so noble, how can Han Xun change it? Let's change someone."

"Who does Mr. Guo want to change?"

"Zhen Yan."

Shi Tao smiled. He looked at Guo Tu and shook his head. "Mr. Guo, this is not possible. Zhen Yan is the general who commands 20,000 people to fight. Han Yin is just the captain who commands the thousand cavalry. Moreover, Zhen Yan is still alive, Han Yin is dead and cannot be compared with the same words."

Guo Tu snorted: "Then let's change another person, Gao Lan."

"We didn't find Gao Lan, he probably ran away."

A depressed moan came from the inner tent, and Shi Tao's eyes flashed slightly, but he didn't say anything. As soon as he entered the tent, he smelled the strong fragrance of medicine, which was the wounded medicine of Bencaotang in Nanyang. It was a must-have medicine in Sun Ce's army. He was too familiar with this smell. Although the control was very strict, because the efficacy was good, theft and sale were inevitable. Many cases related to this have been investigated and dealt with in the army. The wounded medicine in Yuan Shao's hand should be the same. These medicines are very expensive and have good efficacy. One or two pills of ordinary trauma are enough. The smell of medicine in the tent is so strong that Yuan Shao's injuries should not be light. He did not show off, not because he was showing off, but because he was too serious.

Guo Tu's eyes wandered. Zhen Yan was captured, Gao Lan fled, the Shen brothers were safe and sound, Zhang He had just killed Han Yin in the last battle and seized hundreds of weapons. When his injury healed, he formed the Grand Hollander, which was stronger. The Jizhou Group added another general, which was not good news for the Yingchuan Group. Han Xun was killed, and now only Xun Yan and Han Meng could count on. If Han Xun's subordinates could be redeemed for some, this was a rare opportunity.

Guo Tu and Shi Tao bargained and basically accepted the conditions for exchanging prisoners. According to convention, equivalent exchange was implemented based on the different high and low levels of prisoners. However, the Yuan army soldiers were captured, too many were killed, but too few were captured, and there were still a large number of soldiers who could not be exchanged. They could only wait later. Now, they exchanged Han Yin's corpse for Han Xun's corpse first.

The two of them decided to exchange time and precautions, and Shi Tao stood up to say goodbye. Guo Tu got up and sent it to the door. While Shi Tao bowed his hand to say goodbye, Guo Tu grabbed Shi Tao's sleeve. Shi Tao was stunned. Just as he was about to speak, Guo Tu whispered: "Shut up!"

"Oh." Shi Tao closed his mouth obediently, looking innocent.

"Speak quickly, what else should I submit to Yuan Jun, so I can't tell me?"

Shi Tao blinked his eyes and wanted to speak but stopped. Guo Tu glared. Shi Tao immediately became timid and said with a wicked smile: "Actually it's nothing. A soldier picked up Yuan Envoy's Sizhao's sword. He had something to do with him. I want to ask Yuan Envoy."

"Sizhao Dao? What's wrong with this?"

"Sizhao is the word Shao. There are so many people around Yuan Envoy who are as knowledgeable as Guo Gong. Don't you think this name is unlucky? Or do you mean that someone is deliberately doing it? You said that this person is so vicious. Isn't this equivalent to placing a gu and cursing Yuan Envoy's body and head differently..." Shi Tao said halfway, and saw that Guo Tu's face turned pale, thinking, and said embarrassedly: "Guo... Guo Gong, this knife... isn't it... you offered it?"

Guo Tu stared at Shi Tao fiercely, and his teeth were itchy, and he wanted to bite a piece of Shi Tao's flesh. But he also knew that Shi Tao was just a messenger who passed the message. The initiator must be his subordinate Guo Jia. Yuan Shao returned from defeat and was seriously injured. When he was physically and mentally fragile, he was inevitably suspicious. If such vicious slander was passed into Yuan Shao's ears, would he still have a way out? The gods gave the sword and said the word "Sizhao". This legendary story was compiled for Yuan Shao.

But then again, why didn’t I think of this at the beginning? The word "Sizhao" is indeed very unlucky.

"What exactly does Fengxiao want to do?" Guo Tu said gritting his teeth. He was really a little afraid of Guo Jia. Isn't this little guy trying to get rid of me with Yuan Shao's hand in order to be the head of the Guo family?
