"Hahaha, Zhongdao's words are wrong. I, the Yuan clan, alone lead 20,000 soldiers, and we will definitely kill the Huns and make them scream.
"Haha, of course Wei believed what brother Xiansi (Yuan Shao's eldest son Yuan Tan) said. Yuan Tan was overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly said:
"Are the five hundred sets of black armor missing? Let me tell you. If Zhongdao believes in me, how about giving me five thousand sets of black armor and I will help you destroy three Xiongnu tribes?" Ruo)'s face changed slightly. He felt that Yuan Tan's words were too early, but when he wanted to stop him, it was too late and he could only sigh helplessly.
Wei Qing chuckled, looked at Yuan Tan, and said in a normal way:
"Destroying three tribes with 20,000 troops is nothing. If you can lead 5,000 troops and annihilate three Xiongnu tribes, I will give you a thousand sets of black armor for free, plus 20,000 compassion arrows. How about it?"
"Only a thousand sets?" Yuan Tan was stunned, pouted and muttered:
"You are so stingy. Wei Qing sneered at the corner of his mouth and was too lazy to say another word to him. This Yuan Tan is not Yuan Shao. It is useless to say more. On the contrary, Yuan Xi, who was attacked by Yuan Tan, frowned and looked a little eager to try. It was just because of the obstruction of his eldest brother Yuan Tan. He couldn't talk much when he was present. At this time, Xu Ding and Tian Feng left and returned. Following closely behind them was Lu Bu, whose height almost reached the door frame, as well as Sun Ce, Zhou Yu, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Guan Yu... As for Thanks to the old man, he will not come to attend the young people's banquet. He thinks very highly of himself, so he has to go to Wei Hao if he wants to talk.
"Hahaha, Lu Fengxian, Sun Boxu, and Cao Mengde are here too." Yuan Tan looked familiar and didn't even mean to stand up when he said hello.
When Lu Bu and others saw that Yuan's people were also there, they all had strange expressions on their faces, especially Cao Cao, who narrowed his eyes vaguely.
Not long after Yuan Shao was granted the title of Bohai Prefect, he secretly developed a considerable force by leveraging the power of the former leader of the eight captains of Xiyuan. In just over half a month, he reshuffled the officialdom of Jizhou and vaguely replaced Han Fu, the shepherd of Jizhou. mean.
Cao Cao was also born in the Eighth School of Xiyuan. He didn't want to fall behind others. He recently joined the Xie family and the Sun family in an attempt to develop his own power from the Xuzhou area. There is no sign of it yet.
Lu Bu was very dissatisfied with Yuan Tan, a junior, calling him by his own name, but he knew that now was not the time to get angry. Not to mention that he was not respected, Yuan Tan also called Cao Cao Mengde, and Cao Cao didn't say anything. I am too lazy to argue with my children.
However, it is not difficult to see from Yuan Tan's attitude that Yuan Shao probably has quite a lot of influence in Jizhou, otherwise Yuan Tan would not have grown so powerful. It was just a greeting, and everyone's thoughts turned around, and they already had their own affairs. thought.
Wei Chengquan pretended not to notice, and motioned for everyone to take their seats with a smile. The maid had already brought the food and wine to the table. Wei Cheng raised his glass and said:
“Everyone, I’ll do it first as a courtesy.
"I dare not, but I would like to drink this cup with Brother Zhongdao."
"Master Wei, you're welcome.
"Man drinks. Several people have different thoughts, but they dare not be disrespectful to Wei Cheng. Whether it is Wei Cheng's magical methods, the great achievements of the city guards in Jizhou, or the recent news about the Han Dynasty's extermination of Hu, it is enough to make them Remain in awe of Wei Cheng. After finishing his glass, Wei Cheng raised his glass again and said to Lu Bu:
"How old is Brother Lu? responded:
"I don't dare to take it seriously. The second master is a truly heroic man. Two thousand soldiers and horses destroyed one hundred thousand barbarians. It is really an unprecedented move. I heard about this in Luoyang and wished I could go there in person."
"drink."
"Drink. The two of them looked at each other and smiled. Tian Han asked Xu Chu to add another glass of wine and looked at Tian Han. Wei Cheng did not dare to ask for help and stood up directly, followed closely by Tian Han on the side. Heijia was about to While talking, Yuan Tan was stunned for a moment and said curiously:
"Who is this?" Wei Cheng glanced at Yuan Tan and reminded hurriedly:
"Gong Jin." Yuan Tan stepped forward, bowed together, and replied:
"Yuan Tan, Lujiang, has met Mr. Wei." Heijia raised his eyebrows slightly, nodded with interest, and said:
"Who are you, Luoyang Ling Zhou Yi?"
"It's my father." Yuan Tan did not dare to be negligent and responded respectfully. Hei Jia said 'hmm' and said as if chatting:
"I heard that there is a son in Lujiang County who is an outstanding young man. He is proficient in music, has a wealth of knowledge, and is also very knowledgeable in military strategy. I think he is you."
"I don't dare." Yuan Tan handed over again. Tian Han chuckled, glanced at Tian Han who was standing next to him, and suddenly said with some evil humor:
"Little friend Zhou, if I give you five thousand soldiers and horses, plus a thousand sets of Lu Bu...oh, Lu Bu, do you know what it is?" Tian Han looked at Xu Chu behind Tian Han, nodded, and complimented:
"I know that Lu Bu of the Wei clan is invulnerable. Not only can he wear it quickly, but he has written it down a few times in the Dragon and Tiger Book, and I just happened to write it down."
"Very good." Heijia continued:
"In this way, I will give you five thousand soldiers and horses, one thousand Lu Bu, and twenty thousand arrows of mercy made of meteorite iron. This arrow of mercy, Yuan Tan said:
"The mercy arrow, combined with a strong bow, can break through hundreds of armors, leaving the person hit by the arrow paralyzed.
"Okay, okay, it seems that you know my Wei family very well. Tian Han chuckled and said:
"With five thousand soldiers and horses, one thousand sets of Lu Bu, and twenty thousand arrows of mercy, with you as the military advisor and Bo Fu as the commander, how many Xiongnu tribes can be destroyed within a three-month time limit?"
"This" Yuan Tan looked at Wei Cheng. Everyone present also looked at each other in confusion. Only Tian Han and others on the opposite side had clear faces. They looked at Zhou Yu with a hint of threat in their eyes. Yuan Tan ignored them. When Wei Cheng nodded, he raised his hand and confirmed:
"I dare to ask, are these five thousand soldiers and horses, the guards of Wei City or the black armor? Hearing this, he burst out laughing and said as it should be:
"Of course you recruit by yourself, our city guards will not be loaned out." Yuan Tan smiled awkwardly. Then he frowned and thought deeply. During this period, Tian Han and Wei Qing drank a glass of wine. After a while, Yuan Tan handed over his hand and said :
"In particular, the number of Xiongnu tribes will not exceed 10,000. After all, the large tribe of 100,000 people like Qingya tribe belongs to a small number of Xiongnu royal families, and is not included. Heijia nodded with satisfaction, secretly thinking that this Zhou Gongjin is more mature than Tian Han and his ilk. Although he is still young, he considers the problem very carefully, unlike Cao Cao who just talks about it. Yuan Tan raised his hand and said:
"If we use the Xiongnu tribe of our size, at least five can be wiped out in three months. This is already the limit. If there are more, I am afraid that it will scare the snake. By then
"Tsk!" Before Yuan Tan finished speaking, Cao Cao on the other side sneered:
"The kid with a yellow mouth is boasting. Have you ever seen a barbarian? There are five of them. Do you think they are killing chickens and dogs?" Tian Han frowned slightly and wanted to retort, but was stopped by Wei Cheng.
On the other hand, Zhou Yu suddenly said:
"The Xiongnu Hu Ta is nothing to be afraid of. One year ago, he wanted to eat meat, so he led five hundred brothers to rob it. There were seven or eight thousand people in a tribe, half of which were old, weak, women and children, and none of them could fight. He never stopped. Sun Ce, who was speaking, couldn't help it anymore. He stood up and cupped his fists to test:
"Zhongdao suddenly mentioned this matter, but what's his plan?" Tian Han always looked at the changes in everyone's faces with a smile. When Sun Ce came to ask, he said with a warm smile:
"Oh, there is no plan. Just like Brother Lu, I suddenly want to eat meat. I heard that the Huns raised a lot of cattle and sheep, and I want to grab some to try." Everyone, look at me, I look at you, what's in my mind At the same time, I thought of the two plaques at the door.
But the flying generals of Dragon City are here, and Hu Ma is not taught to cross the Yin Mountain... This Wei Zhongdao's plan is external but not internal, and I don't know whether it is true or false.
