Qianzhao sat in the tent, frowned at the nǎiku in front of him.

It has been two days since he arrived at the royal court ranch in Wuhuan, western Liaoning, and he has not seen the real person in charge. Tadun was killed, the king was young, and several leaders in the tribe were in charge, and no one was convinced. Qianzhao had known that the situation in Wuhuan in western Liaoning had been not optimistic, but he did not expect them to be like this. He couldn't help but sigh again. Barbarians are barbarians, with indifferent concepts of monarch and ministers, and the strong are respected, so he would be able to survive. If it were a great Han Dynasty, let alone the emperor was sixteen or seventeen years old, even if he was only a few years old, as long as he had ministers assisted, this situation would not have happened.

"Is Qianzi Jing there?" A familiar voice came from outside the tent. Qian Zhao was stunned for a moment, suddenly reacted, surprised, and quickly got up and came out of the tent. Guo Tu stood outside the tent, wrapped in a cloak, with snowflakes piled on his shoulders. Seeing Qian Zhao, Guo Tu laughed. Qian Zhao was talking, Guo Tu waved his hand and signaled to speak in the tent. Qian Zhao did not dare to be negligent, so he led Guo Tu into the tent, and ordered his personal guards to guard the door and not let idle people approach.

Guo Tu took his seat and glanced at the cool guy in front of Qianzhao. "Why, aren't you used to it?"

"Yes, it's so fucked and hard to swallow."

"Take it over, I'm just hungry." Guo Tu patted his stomach. Qian Zhao was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "It's already cold and I can't eat it. I still have dry food now. Guo Jun will replenish some hunger first."

"Why can't you eat it when it's cold?" Guo Tu laughed, reached out and took it over, scooped a large spoon and put it into his mouth. Just as Qian Zhao was watching, Guo Tu ate it in big mouthfuls, and then ate a large bowl of cheese cleanly, and even scraped it carefully. Seeing Qian Zhao's eyes horrified, Guo Tu put down the silver spoon and sighed softly. "Zi Jing, wait for you to be hungry in the snow for three days, let alone the cold cheese, even if it's human flesh frozen into ice, you will feel extremely delicious."

Qian Zhao didn't say anything, looking at Guo Tu in surprise. As the leader of the Ruying scholars, Guo Tu has always been very particular, especially after Guo Jia became Sun Ce's confidant, novel objects from Jingzhou and Yuzhou continued to appear next to Guo Tu. He almost led the entire Jizhou háo stream, when did it become like this?

Guo Tu burped and asked lightly: "I heard from the Wuhuan people that the envoy is fighting with Liu Bei in Zhuo County, what is the outcome?"

Qian Zhao came back to his senses and quickly told him what he knew. Guo Tu heard that Yuan Tan sent Qian Zhao to contact Wuhuan of the three counties and restrained Liu Bei and Taishi Ci couldn't help laughing. Qian Zhao saw that he was disdainful and didn't want to say much, so he had to pretend that he didn't see it.

"What did Wuyan say? Have you promised?"

Qian Zhao shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Taishici is fighting outside the Great Wall. First, defeat the Mijia of the Hundred Battles tribe, and then defeat the Suli of the Shenji tribe. The battlefield is upstream of Lushui. Wu Yan was already frightened, afraid that Taishici would take advantage of the opportunity to enter his tribe, so he would not dare to act rashly."

Guo Tu pondered, tapping his fingers lightly on the desk, and the beard on the corner of his mouth trembled slightly. "Zi Jing, are you familiar with the several governors under Sun Ce's command?"

Qian Zhao didn't know what Guo Tu wanted to say, so he shook his head gently. "Just ask Guo Jun for advice."

"In addition to his father Sun Jian, Sun Ce has five governors, Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Lu Fan, Ji Ling and Shen You, each responsible. Zhou Yu is in charge of Jingzhou, Lu Sui Yang, Lu Fan, Sui Yang, Ji Ling, Rencheng, and Shen You are in Qingzhou. Zhou Yu and Sun Ce hit it off when they saw each other and had a close relationship. Needless to say, Shen You are from Jiangdong, and it is said that Lu Kang is recommended, and it can be preserved without any irrelevant. Lu Su was invited by Sun Ce himself. When Lu Fan and Sun Ce met in Nandun County, Runan, they were entrusted with important tasks. Ji Ling's affairs were not very clear. They should have made contributions to defending Lu and were entrusted with important tasks by Sun Ce. This experience of Taishi Ci is the most legendary. He was once a rival to Sun Ce."

Qianzhao looked at Guo Tu quietly without saying a word.

"Zhou Yu is a child of a noble family, Shen You is a junior veteran of Wujun, and has a reputation. Lu Su, Lu Fan, Ji Ling and Taishi Ci are children of poor families with little reputation. They are not old friends with Sun Ce, but Sun Ce can entrusted important tasks at first sight. And the facts prove that these people can indeed bear the responsibility of one side. Do you think this is a bit strange?"

"It's indeed a bit strange." Qian Zhao said lightly: "But he has Guo Juncongzi beside him to do a detailed work, maybe it's because the information is collected well."

Guo Tu shook his head and stroked his beard. "You can't say it, the weirdest thing is that I follow you. To be honest, I don't know why he got into Sun Ce's eyes and became Sun Ce's confidant all of a sudden." He laughed twice with self-deprecatingly. "I thought it was because of me, but now I realize that I am a little self-righteous. Sun Ce used him just because of himself, and it has nothing to do with me."

Qian Zhao had a polite smile on his face and said nothing. Guo Tu and Guo Jia were uncles and nephews, and they were the confidants of Yuan Shao and Sun Ce respectively. It is well known that they had contact with each other. Whether Guo Tu had disclosed the information and how much it had to do with the Battle of Guandu was something that many people were speculating but could not find evidence. Yuan Tan sent Guo Tu to Youzhou, which was a response to this rumor, but there was no difference at the moment.

What does Guo Tu mean to say these things now? Excerpt for himself? Even if it is, he doesn't seem to need to tell him this. What can he help Guo Tu? He can't help anything. He himself is a neglected person. If Guo Tu wants to take the opportunity to win him over, it's not reasonable. They didn't have much friendship before, but Guo Tu and Wu Kuang had a friendship for more than ten years.

Seeing Qianzhao not responding, Guo Tu sighed and was filled with excitement. "I have been out for more than a year, and I have been traveling for nearly ten thousand miles. I have been ruthless with Hu people every day. I am really bored. I suddenly saw Zijing and was excited for a moment. If I misunderstood, I would like to forgive me."

"I dare not." Qian Zhao said lightly.

Guo Tu stood up and gently shook his sleeves. "Zi Jing, I know that because of your teacher's affairs, you and me have always been a little distant, and I don't expect to turn enemies into friends with you. However, the loss in Guandu was too great. Yi, Shen Pei was killed in battle, Wen Chou was unknown, Liu He and Yan Liang are now killed in battle one after another, you are one of the few generals in Hebei, don't destroy it here. The Wuhuan people depend on the strong and have few righteousness. Now the envoys only have Jizhou. They have neither financial resources to satisfy their greed, nor enough force to shock them. It is no different to expect them to serve as a tree and carve a boat and a sword. Go back, maybe Zhuo County has your place to use it."

Guo Tu turned around and came out of the tent. Qianzhao hesitated for a moment, but still got up and chased him out. "Guo Jun, where are you planning to go?"

Guo Tu didn't say anything, squinted his eyes and looked forward quietly. Qian Zhao also looked forward, and saw a group of people standing in front of the gorgeous tent in the distance. Some had just arrived and turned over and dismounted, while some were jumping on the horse, whipping up and galloping away. Guo Tu looked back at Qian Zhao, and the two of them said in unison: "What's wrong." Guo Tu immediately said: "Zi Jing, I'll go and see. Be prepared. If the situation is not good, leave immediately."

Qianzhao quickly weighed the pros and cons, nodded, turned around and asked the attendants to prepare horses and dry food. Guo Tu took the attendants and walked towards the tent. He didn't walk very quickly, but his eyes were not idle. He kept observing the people coming and going, and found that the little commanders from various departments were coming and going, but the scouts were coming and going. The scouts were in a hurry, and the little commanders looked nervous, as if a disaster was coming.

Guo Tu grabbed a familiar little coach and asked, "What's wrong?"

The little handsome guy was stunned when he saw that it was Guo Tu. "Mr. Guo, when did you come?"

"Just arrived. What's wrong with you? They were so panicked. What happened?"

Xiaoshuai looked around, pulled Guo Tu aside, and whispered: "The Xianbei people are coming, there are a large number of people, and there are tens of thousands. The Shanyu wanted to recruit troops to fight, but we..." Xiaoshuai clapped his hands, laughed bitterly, and clapped his palms. "What are you going to fight?"

Guo Tu was also stunned. The Wuhuan in western Liaoning was originally not weak, with more than 5,000 knights and 20,000 to 30,000 knights. However, in the battle of Guandu last year, Tadun was killed in the battle, and the elite knights brought to Guandu also suffered a lot. Later, the internal disputes between the Wuhuan in western Liaoning lost some people. Now the maximum number of knights can be concentrated in the king's tent is 15,000, and many of them are old and weak. Facing the Xianbei people who are several times more likely to win.

"Aren't the Xianbei people fighting Taishici? How could it be..."

"Isn't that?" Xiaoshuai was crying without tears. They had already received the news that the Xianbei people were beaten to pieces by Taishici, and the tribes of the hundreds of battles died in one battle. They were happy to have a lack of a strong enemy. Unexpectedly, the Xianbei people could not defeat Taishici, but came to find their bad luck. They did not have the strength of Taishici, and could defeat the more with less. With the strength of Wuhuan in western Liaoning, they were no match for the Xianbei people at all. The disaster of extermination was right in front of them. Xiaoshuai looked at Guo Tu and suddenly said: "Sir, can we retreat to Senei temporarily and hide for a while?"

Guo Tu was speechless. The prefect of Liaoxi was Taishici. It was necessary for the Wuhuan people to enter the barriers for the time being to avoid Taishici agreed. He was not qualified to make a promise. Wuhuan in western Liaoxi and Yuan Shao had the best relationship with his father and son. Taishici was ordered by Sun Ce to enter Youzhou. The first person to deal with was probably Wuhuan in western Liaoxi. It was naturally impossible to let them enter Liaoxi County to avoid disaster at this time.

Seeing that Guo Tu didn't say anything, Xiao Shuai's smile that was easily squeezed out gradually faded. He tilted his mouth. "It seems that the sir can't help, so I won't chat with the sir. The king is still waiting for us to come up with an idea." After saying that, he bowed his hand and quickly left, leaving Guo Tu aside.

Guo Tu's face was so hot that it seemed like he was slapped. He expected that the Wuhuan people would neglect him, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly. I thought that when Tadun led his troops to help, he saw that he was respectful when he first arrived in Yecheng and did not dare to be rude. Now even a tribe coach is so realistic that he does not give him a little face, a famous scholar in the Central Plains.
