Guan Yu was ordered to come to the camp.
"General Guo has summoned me.”
Guan Yu had a solemn expression on his face as he looked at Guo Yun's sloppy appearance. He was very unhappy.
Ever since he was conferred the title during the court meeting, he had wanted to make contributions to the emperor.
As one of the few fierce generals in the world, he was popular wherever he went.
However, during this period of time in the military camp, Guo Yun did not even see Guan Yu. He had never been treated so coldly.
If not for the emperor's favor, Guan Yu would have packed up and left long ago.
"Oh? General Guan is here."
Guo Yun narrowed his eyes and looked at him." Yuan Shao has gathered 200,000 troops in Qingzhou. Your elder brother Liu Bei and Zhang Fei will lead them. Are you willing to go to Xuzhou to fight them?"”
Hearing this, Guan Yu frowned and remained silent.
"That's true. After all, we were sworn brothers. It's a little difficult for you to meet each other in battle.”
Guo Yun shook his head and sighed." But that Yan Liang is ugly and his combat power is unparalleled. He is comparable to Lu Bu…If General Guan were to deal with them, I'm afraid His Majesty would blame me for favoritism. After all, I am Guo Jia's younger brother and Prime Minister Cao's future son-in-law."”
"Yan Liang is ugly, he's just selling the lead!”
Baqi Guan stroked his long beard and said disdainfully,""General Guo, please give the order."
"Good! As expected of the fierce general who killed Hua Xiong with warm wine!”
"Guan Yu, listen up! I order you to go to East County today to meet with Governor Liu Yan!" Guo Yun praised loudly.”
"Hmm? Aren't you going to accept the order?"
After Guo Yun finished speaking, he saw that Guan Yu was still standing in the tent and looking at him.
"I don't understand."
"Since Yuan Shao has gathered his army in Qingzhou, why did you send me to Dongjun?!”
Guan Yu frowned in confusion. He looked at Guo Yun and said,""Since Commander Yun has been conferred the title of North General by His Majesty, he will not go back on his word! Not to mention Yan Liang, Wen Chou, even if I encounter my brothers on the battlefield, I will not show mercy.”
"I don't doubt General Guan's determination to serve the court.”
Guo Yun patted Guan Yu's shoulder and said,""Since ancient times, loyalty and loyalty are hard to achieve. I know that, so I sent you to East County.”
"Why?" Guan Yu was confused.”
"Because Yuan Shao's true intention is to send troops from Liyang to attack Whiterun!
"How is that possible?"
The news of the Qingzhou army gathering had already spread, so Guan Yu naturally knew about it.
"Even you know that the Qingzhou army has gathered. Who doesn't know?”
Guo Yun shook his head and said," But the one leading the army is Yuan Shao's son. Yuan Shao may be ambitious but not talented, or indecisive, but he is famous for spoiling his son. How could he let his precious son fight this tough battle?"”
"Qingzhou is just bluffing.”
"Yuan Shao's true goal is for Li Yang to send troops to attack White Horse and enter Xuchang!”
He then analyzed Guo Yun's words in his mind and looked at Guo Yun with respect."I've heard that General Guo is comparable to a dragon and phoenix.”
Guan Yu was skilled in strategy, he only needed to give Yuan Shao some pointers to understand his intentions.
However, he did not expect that this young general in front of him would actually see through it so thoroughly. How could he not be impressed?
Guan Yu was such a proud person.
Even if there were many rumors about Guo Yun, he would laugh at them.
It was just an opportunistic move.
But now, there were 200,000 soldiers. How terrifying was that?
Any general would lose their composure in the face of such an army. Even he thought that Yuan Shao was going to start a war on the border of Xuzhou.
If Cao Cao had sent his army to attack Xu Prefecture, Xu Prefecture would have fallen by the time they reacted.
With the help of such a strategist, how could Cao Cao fail?
"In this battle, only the general can win!”
"So, the safety of the Emperor is in General Guan's hands!" Guo Yun said solemnly.”
When Guan Yu heard the word 'Tianzi', he said respectfully,""General, don't worry. I won't disappoint you!”
Guo Yun did not assign a single soldier to Guan Yu.
Guan Yu was indeed arrogant. He rushed to East County alone.
"My lord, aren't you worried that he will run away?”
After Guan Yu left, Zhao Yun asked curiously.
"Zilong, as the saying goes, don't doubt the person you use.”
Guo Yun shrugged his shoulders and said,"Besides, with Guan Yu's personality, if he wanted to run, he wouldn't have returned to Xuchang and walked into the trap." By the way, Zilong, how's the training at the riding and archery camp?”
"Recently, the quality of the recruits is too poor, and most of the veterans who have been on the battlefield have been solidified by previous training. It's too difficult to turn things around.”"And there seems to be a problem with recruiting soldiers recently."”
"Is there a problem?"
"What problem?" Guo Yun frowned.”
"There are fewer able-bodied men joining the army. Now, most of them are joining the army because of the tax exemption policy.”
Zhao Yun thought for a moment and said," It shouldn't be that the commoners are greedy for benefits. It's just that the population has decreased after years of war. I'm afraid there aren't many able-bodied men left in these three provinces and six regions.”
Just as Guo Yun was thinking about this problem, Xu Chu walked in silently. As soon as he sat down, he took out a wine pot and drank.
"Old Xu? What happened to you?"
Guo Yun was a little confused.
Xu Chu had a loud voice. He had to shout at any time, but he went to the court meeting and came back without a sound?
"If there's anything unhappy, let's talk about it.”
After following Guo Yun for a while, Zhao Yun had learned how to joke. Of course, this was only limited to when there were only three of them.
Surprisingly, Xu Chu did not even have the desire to argue today.
Guo Yun looked at Xu Chu with displeasure written all over her face.
"Is it because of Guan Yu's battle with Whiterun?”Guo Yun asked tentatively.
"No, the lord ordered me to quickly start a family.”
Guo Yun was speechless.
"(#) Convex!"
Guo Yun was confused." This is a good thing. Why are you so depressed?"”
