Wulu is in a very embarrassing situation.

The direct executor of Sun Jian's contact with the Heishan Army was Gong Du. Gong Du not only met with Zhang Yan many times, but also brought Liu Pi's handwritten letters, which was full of sincerity. However, Zhang Yan did not see him, which made him feel embarrassed.

Wulu further suspected that the reason why Sun Ce obstructed was Gong Du. He must have said a lot of bad things about Zhang Yan in front of Sun Ce, so when Sun Ce heard about the envoy of the Black Mountain Army, he immediately pulled Zhu Jun away. Otherwise, he should at least listen to what he wanted to say. Now Guo Jia suggested that he ask Gong Du, so naturally he wanted to make Gong Du regain his face and reduce the sharpness of the Black Mountain Army.

But in this way, Zhang Yan's dignity was wiped out.

Wulu was very entangled and didn't speak for a long time.

Guo Jia didn't say much, bowed his hand and shaking his feather fan away. He was graceful, but his leg injury had not healed yet. When walking, he had to cross his legs and take steps more and look a bit like a rampant crab. When he returned to the tent, Sun Ce was talking to Zhang Hong and Pang Tong, but Jian prepared the medicine and waited for him to change it. Sun Ce once said that when Guo Jia recovered from his injury, he would give him the explanation of the sixteen-character mantra, so he was very attentive.

After changing the medicine, Guo Jia returned to the front tent and took a seat aside.

"Is it okay to walk?"

"It's okay." Guo Jia said with a smile: "In a few days, the last scab will fall off and nothing will happen. General, the sixteen-character mantra is really good. I think it's not only worth sixteen ingots of gold, it's simply gold-free."

Sun Ce smiled but said nothing, but Jian raised his ears. No wonder Guo Jia recovered so quickly. It turned out that he had already started the sixteen-character mantra.

"What do you say about Wulu?"

"General, we really underestimate Yuan Shao." Guo Jia smiled and shook his head, and told him what he had inquired about in Wulu.

Since Zhang Hong entered the curtain, Sun Ce reduced the number of people who did it in detail for economic balance and his energy. Now he mainly focused on understanding major events and monitoring some key figures in Hebei, and was not clear about some details. When Yuan Shao fought with Gongsun Zan, he knew a little about the Black Mountain Army's attack on Yecheng, but he did not say so much, but Wulu did not say so in detail. Looking back now, Yuan Shao could defeat Gongsun Zan in that situation, and this perseverance was rare.

Sun Ce was also very surprised, only Zhang Hong disagreed.

"The Black Mountain Army did not appear there suddenly, and it was not an accident that they colluded with Gongsun Zan. Why didn't Yuan Shao be prepared before going to war? If it weren't for Tao Sheng, he would have been unable to maintain the victory even if he defeated Gongsun Zan. This was just a lucky chance. Rather than his perseverance, it would be better to say that he had the tolerance of Goujian. Such people can share hardships, but cannot share wealth and honor."

Guo Jia nodded and said, "Sir, it's reasonable. To be honest, Yuan Shao is indeed somewhat similar to Goujian. Goujian worked in Wu for three years, as a slave, his wife was a maid, and he slept with firewood and tasted gall. Yuan Shao held the tomb for six years for party and bribery affairs, and was a person who was tolerant. After Goujian destroyed Wu, Fan Liyin and Wen Zhong died. Now Yuan Shao has not succeeded yet, he will kill Qiao Mao first and then Han Fu. If he can accomplish great things, he still doesn't know how many people will suffer."

Sun Ce was surprised. "Yuan Shao has been guarding the tomb for six years, is it for the party and bribery?"

"Of course, Yuan Shao's wife is the daughter of Li Yuanli, and Li Yuanli is the leader of the party. If Yuan Shao can get the support of the party today, most of his connections come from Li Yuanli. Otherwise, with the reputation of the Yuan family, how could he get the support of the party? Before Yuan Shao, the Yuan family had always kept a distance from the party members, but instead was closer to the relatives and eunuchs. Yuan Shao's father Yuan Cheng was the confidant of the general Liang Ji. Yuan Shao and Yuan Wei and Yuan Ji had a different way, and he had a meridian to follow. However, when Yuan Wei and Yuan Feng loved Yuan Shao, they probably didn't expect Yuan Shao to repay them like this."

Guo Jia shook his head, and his eyes showed contempt. "If you kiss a virtuous person, how can you love someone if you don't love his relatives? If you let this person become the lord of the world, then it would be a sightless heaven."

Zhang Hong's eyes were relieved and he smiled with caressed his beard.

Sun Ce saw it and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Guo Jia was probably helpless and could only ask for an opportunity to use his talents. Zhang Hong asked more than him. He looked down on Cao Cao. Even if Cao Cao wanted to keep him, he would abandon him like a piece of shoes and wanted to go back to Jiangdong. Unfortunately, Sun Ce died early, but Sun Quan's personality was similar to Goujian. They were always close and not as close as he and Sun Ce.

Sun Ce was also cruel and showed no mercy to kill the Jiangdong clan, but he was very kind to his family. Sun Jian died, and he gave Sun Jian's title of Wucheng Hou to his fourth brother Sun Kuang, and earned another Wu Hou. In comparison, it was still in line with the Confucian standards for kissing.

Do you think you chose him? For real talents, he chose you.

"Two, tell me, do we want to rescue the Black Mountain Army?"

Zhang Hong and Guo Jia exchanged a look, and Zhang Hong said first. "General, although the Heishan Army is also a Yellow Turban, they watched Gongsun Zan destroy the Qingzhou Yellow Turban without regard for it. The separatist spirit is already very obvious. Unlike the Runan Yellow Turban, it is difficult to surrender like the Runan Yellow Turban, and it is even less likely to be driven by the Qingzhou Yellow Turban. In my opinion, it is not necessary to let them suffer a little. However, the Heishan Army and Yuan Shao have deep hatred and are difficult to resolve in the short term. With the Heishan Army on the side, Yuan Shao's battle on both sides is very beneficial to us, and it is not advisable to sit idly by them to be wiped out by Yuan Shao."

Sun Ce nodded and looked at Guo Jia again. Guo Jia asked Wulu to save Gong Du and plead with him, which had already shown his attitude.

Guo Jia said: "Mr. Zi Gang said it well. He still needs to be saved, but how to save, when to save, and what level he saves, this initiative must be in the hands of the general. Zhu Yan cannot be decided by the Heishan Army. In my opinion, this may be a great opportunity to make a deal with Yuan Tan. It is beneficial to us to help Yuan Tan control Yanzhou and let Yuan Shao focus on Gongsun Zan and Zhang Yan. Zhu Ling is loyal to Yuan Shao or Yuan Tan. The situation is unclear at the moment, so we can test it. If he is loyal to Yuan Shao, we will do Yuan Tan a favor and get rid of this person."

Sun Ce couldn't help laughing and looked at Pang Tong again. "Shi Yuan, do you have any suggestions? Tell me."

Pang Tong was fascinated by the fact that when he saw Sun Ce consulting him for his opinion, he felt a little embarrassed and waved his hands repeatedly, "The two gentlemen said it makes sense, and I agree very much."

Zhang Hong said: "Shi Yuan, just say it bluntly and don't have any scruples. Since it is a discussion, you must express your own opinions for the general's reference. Listening to the side is dark, and listening to both is bright. No matter who it is, it is impossible to cover everything. There are always negligence, and it is possible to be too small to big."

Pang Tong looked at Sun Ce, and Sun Ce nodded encouragement. Pang Tong followed him early. At first, he studied and planned according to him, a half-baked guy, and the starting point was not high. Now he has two master-level colleagues, Zhang Hong and Guo Jia, so he inevitably has some pressure. However, Pang Tong, who grew up like this, should be stronger than Feng Chu in history, right?

"Shi Yuan, let's talk, it doesn't matter if you say it wrong. It's also a good thing to ask Mr. Zigang and Fengxiao to give advice."

Pang Tong responded: "I think this is an opportunity to practice with war instead of training. All the generals under the command of the Taiwei are relatively lazy, and they think that those with more soldiers are strong, so they want to recruit all those who can leave. There are many people who are just filling in the gaps. They will definitely not want to let them streamline their troops. Let them compete for merit and prepare for the king, but they cannot refuse. With them charging forward and the generals in the middle to dispatch, they can also reduce some unnecessary casualties."
