Chapter 126 Everyone has their own choice(1/2)
Three days later, in Hongnong City.
"Jia Wenhe did not lie to me."
Looking at the rolling smoke and dust in the east horizon, Zhang Ji said to Zhang Xiu.
Zhang Xiu pressed one hand on the sword around her waist:
"Li Jue, Guo Si has fallen into a tough battle. Can our army be dispatched?"
Zhang Ji shook his head and signaled the guards to serve him fine wine:
"The fight has just begun, why bother to hurry?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a fast horse racing:
"General Zhang, Grand Sima was attacked by the Baibo thief and the Southern Xiongnu. The thief army is powerful, so you can send troops quickly!"
As if he didn't hear it, Zhang Ji picked up the wine glass, drank a full glass, and then turned to his nephew:
"Xu'er, which one do you think is better, Hongnong or Wuwei wine?"
Zhang Xiu was stunned for a moment and answered honestly:
"Of course, the wine in my hometown is stronger and better, and Hongnong's wine is not strong enough."
Zhang Ji laughed and threw the wine glass to the guards:
"One more drink!"
Seeing that he was going to continue drinking, Li Jue's messenger quickly raised his voice:
"General Zhang, Grand Sima asked you to send troops quickly!"
This time, Zhang Ji did not ignore him, but just looked at him coldly:
"My ears are not very good, do you say it again?"
A few drops of cold sweat oozed out of the messenger's forehead:
"General Zhang, Grand Sima... Please send troops to rescue quickly!"
Zhang Ji nodded slightly:
"You go back and tell the Grand Sima that the general woke up after he was hungover and was exhausted. Please hold on for a while and immediately send troops after the general rectified his troops!"
The messenger looked at him, and there was no trace of "waking up after hangover"?
But... he is just an insignificant soldier. If Zhang Ji refused to send troops for a long time, what would he do?
He could only salute Zhang Ji, then stepped onto the war horse, and returned to the battlefield to report to Li Jue.
Looking at the dust that was gone, Zhang Xiu couldn't help asking:
"Uncle, rejecting Li Jue's orders like this may cause his revenge!"
Zhang Ji smiled coldly:
"I stood on Guo Si's side to fight against Li Jue again and again, and he had long been dissatisfied with me. Now Guo Si's power has been greatly weakened. If he can take advantage of the chaos to completely defeat Li Jue, in the future, we Zhang will be the respect of the land in Guanzhong!"
Zhang Xiu felt a burst of heat in his heart.
Although Zhang Ji's wife is very beautiful, she has never given birth to a child, so she has always trained Zhang Xiu as her successor. If Zhang's career can grow and grow, she will of course be in a high position!
I saw Zhang Ji waved:
"I'm sending the whole army to prepare for cooking. After the man has enough food and drink, we will go and rescue Sima Li Jue!"
-
When the Xiliang warlords fought with the Baibo army and the Huns who came to rescue the chariot, Huainan, thousands of miles away, was also experiencing fierce turmoil.
With reinforcements cut off and two breakthroughs were blocked, Yuan Shu chose to break through with all his strength for the third time.
He burned his boats, fought with his back, and took a desperate gamble, and then lived... Classic tactics such as Yuan Shu actually worked as a result. Yuan Gonglu, who had always believed in destiny, was favored by God this time.
He led the last more than a thousand cavalry and successfully completed a breakthrough from Zhu Ye's heavy siege!
Seeing that the task was completed, Zhu Yan looked at Yuan Shu who was fleeing in a panic and furious. He directly detained Huang Shao and several battalion commanders who were out of control, and then sent Xu Chu to lead the cavalry to pursue him wildly!
But how could Yuan Shu, who had finally escaped, be caught up with?
Three years ago, Cao Cao chased Yuan Shu for 600 miles near his base and returned in vain. What could Xu Chu do when he was fighting away?
Sure enough, Xu Chu chased him from north to south for a whole night, but in the end he could only stop before a big river.
Zhu Jun shook his head when he heard Xu Chu's report:
"I won the victory to the right general, Shouchun has been conquered, but Yuan Shu fled to Danyang..."
At this time, he had already entered Shouchun and was dealing with the remnants of Yuan Shu who remained in the city.
At this moment, he learned another message:
"General, Zhu Hao, the prefect of Yuzhang, came to pay a visit!"
Zhu Jun trembled all over and almost fell into the battle.
After he stabilized his body, he immediately threw down the bamboo slips in his hand and took big steps!
"civilization!"
"Father!"
With a "bang" sound, Zhu Hao, who was nearly forty years old, fell to his knees and his head directly against the stone slab.
Zhu Jun helped him up, and before he could speak, he suddenly burst into tears:
"Unexpectedly... I can see me again!"
Zhu Hao raised his face, and two lines of tears rolled down:
"Father! It's the child who made you take risks personally!"
Zhu Jun sighed:
"Fortunately, the right general understood that he not only agreed to lead his troops south, but also promoted the power of Yuzhou to attack Huainan. Otherwise, with Yuan Shu's troops, how could I win consecutive battles within one month?"
Zhu Hao let go of his father's support and saluted repeatedly to the north:
"The kindness of the Right General saving me is unforgettable to Zhu Hao!"
After saluting, he got up from the ground and pulled his father and said sideways:
"Father, this is Liu Jingsheng's former official, Zhuge Xuan, a famous clan of Langya. He is willing to take his family to cross the Huai River to serve the right general. I hope his father can give him a recommendation..."
Zhu Jun glanced at Zhuge Xuan who was standing respectfully, wiped his tears, bowed his hand apologetically, and said:
"I don't know that Mr. Zhuge is here, I have lost my composure and lost my composure!"
Zhuge Xuan hurriedly bowed to the ground:
"Mr. Zhu's famous ministers in three dynasties have spread all over the world. Xuan has always admired him. It is so great to be able to pay homage to him today!"
Zhu Jun waved his hand to make an invitation:
"It's hot outside the house, please follow me into the hall to talk."
Zhuge Xuan nodded repeatedly:
"Please please, Mr. Zhu!"
They had just crossed the threshold and had not yet sat down when they heard another sound of horse hooves outside the door:
"The right general envoy is here!"
Zhu Jun was stunned for a moment, immediately tidied up his clothes, wiped the tears at the corners of his eyes, and then came out again.
A young knight rolled over and dismounted, followed by several servants.
I heard the knight say aloud:
"Chen Feng, the official of the Right General's Office, came to submit military orders to Mr. Zhu at the order of the king and the lord!"
Although Zhu Jun didn't know him, he didn't doubt him and bowed:
"A man who has been sent a letter is Zhu Jun."
Chen Feng immediately returned the greeting to him:
"Greetings to the general, the lord sent me to understand the military situation in front of me. I asked the general to ask the chief of the army to introduce it to me."
Zhu Jun smiled and said:
"I was just planning a war report and preparing to report a victory to the right general. The envoy also invited him to the hall. We talked about the matter while drinking a glass of water and wine."
Chen Feng bowed and thanked:
"A general is working hard."
-
After a while, Zhu Jun and Zhu Hao were able to get along alone.
There are often not many words of touch between father and son, and the conversation between the two men quickly turns to the topic.
