Yan Qing had been puzzled by the fact that Gongsun Zan had clearly witnessed Zhao Yun's outstanding martial valor on many occasions, but had not thought to reuse it.

He is like Lu Bu like nepotism, will be from the brother brother brother are sealed to the heavy duty is just, after all, these relatives did not live up to this trust in the end, but would rather not be used Yan Zang Zou Dan as a vanguard or a city governor, but also only to throw to the Zhaoyun wisdom and bravery of a number of chicken bits and pieces of the job to do, when it is really a chicken with a bull knife, wastefulness is very much.

--But it didn't take long for Yan Qing to slightly understand why Gongsun Zan had the feeling of being blessed with no blessings.

When their line of day and night rush, only half the time of the journey back to Xu County, Lu Bu was extremely happy, could not help but praise him painfully, by this praise, Zhao Yun only calmly and self-contained owed, humility: "Yun do not dare to take the credit, but is the north is only ten days, do not expect to meet the Mr. and his entourage on the way."

Yan Qing then remembered that although he had been talking with him for the past few days, he had forgotten to bare this, and could not help but thump in his heart, wanting to stop him from revealing more information, but Lu Bu, who had keenly caught the keyword, had deadened his brows, repeating incredulously, "Going north?"

Zhao Yun said in disbelief, "Exactly."

Lu Bu looked around suspiciously and saw that Yan Qing's face was as usual, so he stared straight at Zhao Yun again and continued to ask: "After all, you didn't meet him on the way to East County?"

Jia coughed lightly and uncomfortably.

Zhao Yun was worried that he couldn't recall who had instructed him to change direction, and now that he was brought to his senses, he politely smiled and sincerely said, "Naturally not, thanks to Military Counselor Jia for pointing out the way for Yun, or else Yun hadn't thought that Mr. Chongguang was actually heading towards Shouyang."

In response to the look of help cast by Yan Qing, Jia Dang indifferently misplaced his gaze, indicating that the tide had turned and that he was already struggling to protect himself.

Zhao Yun is not aware that he has stabbed a big basket, but also sincerely advised him to embrace a great deal of goodwill Mr. Chongguang a few words: "This time, although safe, but the sword has no eyes, even if General Wenyuan is brave, in the chaos of the army need to protect the weak Mr. is difficult to ensure that unhurt, in the future, or not easy to take risks of the good."

Yan Qing: "......"

Little friend Zhao Yun, the consequences of being too straight and knowing too much are often the same, it's easy to be silenced understand.

As expected, has been concealed in the drum of Lu Bu once learned the truth, like a long silent volcano completely erupted like crazy horror.

If it wasn't for the presence of an outsider Zhao Yun, and Yan Qing's quick eyes and hands, before he could not restrain himself from swinging his halberd to dismantle Zhang Liao into eight pieces, he exploded into a huge potential, hard to half persuade and half tugged him to pull him into the inner room, and then straight to the strength of the nine oxen and two tigers, and then swore to ensure that the next time will not be a repeat of the previous one before he could barely pacify his hefty anger, and ultimately blocked the Fangtianhuazhan halberd which was about to split into Zhang Liao.

Yan Qing only hates himself for being too wasteful, before in order to try the effect of this marvelous and infinite "Happy Not to Think of You" on different people, he threw away a few sheets for nothing, and now it's good, when he really needs Lu Bu to calm down his anger, lie down and sleep, and do the emergency use, he can't even swipe half of the sheets in his hand.

When Yan Qing, who was physically and mentally exhausted, stepped out of his room, he saw Jia Yan waiting in the outer hall with a gloating face, and apart from him, no one else was in sight.

Before Yan Qing could be moved for a few seconds, she heard Jia Yan ask with a serious face, "Didn't tell anyone about the letter, did you?"

Yan Qing let out a cold, indifferent huh.

Jia Deng's head of stone finally fell to the ground, and rare to see his listless disheveled state, joked: "used to heavy light in the recruitment of a no harm, the first time to see you empty-handed, lost a time, but also interesting."

Yan Qing blinked, lifting his tone and spirit slightly, "Returning empty-handed? How can that be?"

Jia Daan wondered, "Daan has already asked Wenyuan, and I have not seen any new faces accompanying him, is it possible that both Wenyuan and I have misread the situation?"

When he thought of Zhao Yun, although he had just been pitied by his outspokenness, Yan Qing was still in an extremely good mood and laughed, "This person is far away, but close to the door."

Jia Yan froze, "Could Chongguang be looking at Gongsun Bogui's incoming envoy, the righteous follower who put us in danger of suffering?"

Yan Qing nodded his head and did not mince words of praise, "This man has the courage of a million men, but does not lose his vision of the big picture, he is a rare and wise general. If he stays under Gongsun Bogui's command as a mere grain and grass transportation officer, he will be over-utilized."

Jia Yan is so smart, after learning of Yan Qing's intentions, although I do not understand why he is on an obscure young general under Gongsun Zan's eyes, but convinced that he is accurate, even if for the time being do not see that Zhao ZiLong has a lot of colorful places, did not express any opposition, but only a long sigh of helplessness, "No wonder this matter you alone with me to consult with me, I am afraid that is another batch of grain and grass to fund out, right? "

Yan Qing smiles brightly and pats him on the shoulder intimately: ''The one who knows me, Wen He also! It is just that after this batch of grain and grass is sent, talk to him about the strange lack of manpower within Yuzhou, I wonder if he would be willing to cut his losses and lend his ever-so-virtuous brother Liu Xuan De, to help us out."

Jia did not need to guess know that he wants to play a trick of darkness, first pretended to want Liu Bei, Gongsun Zan where will be willing to let their own great talent of the former students go, and Liu Bei this go, his two sworn brothers will also be along with the departure of his front line of war, it is the need for this kind of generals, how can agree to cut off the arms of their own.

When he hated Lu Bu and others hostage to repay, but also lack of food and grass, do not know how to deal with this lion's mouth, a hundred difficult, and then intentionally loosened the mouth, reluctantly asked for some less than Liu Guanzhang's old White Horse righteousness as an add-on, Gongsun Zan will feel that it is to take advantage of the boss, and immediately agreed to wait for Liu Bei and others to get out of the battlefield, and realized that his beloved Zhao ZiLong has been sent away, but also when it is too late.

Jia Daan's eyelids fluttered as he listened, and he said in amusement, "It's just a fledgling pawn, so will Chongguang be too cautious? If he really asked for it, Gongsun Bogui, who has accepted this generous favor, wouldn't be so stingy as to begrudge Zhao Zilong the loan."

Yan Qing seriously said: "Be careful, you can sail for ten thousand years. Moreover, in Zi Long's talent, is by no means the only clear one person, if not that discerning imperial uncle himself is also under the fence, empty knowledge of talent and love of talent heart, no foothold in their own place, long ago not to let me and so on down the road."

Yan Qing said is the big truth, but called Jia Yan mouth a corner of a draw, simply too lazy to ask but a messenger, how did he become his mouth by ten thousand people scrambling for the meat and potatoes, and directly said: "All at the command of the heavy light is."

Yan Qing laughed, "Just waiting for these words from Wen He!"

Jia Yan grumbled in a good-natured manner, "And yet you're so cunning that you don't talk to Yuan Zhi and come looking for me alone."

Yan Qing said with a straight face, "Qing is still a righteous man in Yuan Zhi's eyes, but if he said so, wouldn't he have to face one more person who would look at Qing's behavior in a cold way?"

Ja: "......"

By the time they were able to sit calmly in the council chamber of the residence to discuss business, it was the following day.

Seeing Lu Bu's gloomy face, a look of lingering anger, Zhang Liao Jia Diao as the primary accomplice nodding silently, watching the eyes and nose, Gao Shun Xu Shu, who was not involved, was not sure of the situation, a look of wanting to ask but not being able to do so, Yan Qing as the culprit only had to inhale deeply and hang up the pre-prepared public opinion maps first.

"Gentlemen, please look."

This map is far more perfect and specific than the one in Lu Bu's army, and it is not easy to come by. First Yan Qing according to the memory of the map of the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the old map made some modifications, and in the past few months to send a hundred travelers to the field to verify the final product, can be said to be the world's unique existence, at once hijacked the attention of all present.

But all a marching and fighting generals, are well aware of the preciousness of an accurate map, Gao Shun and others praise not to mention, even the face of the cloudy Lu Bu were a little fascinated, can not help but caress it, look and look.

Yan Qing also does not stop them to see this fresh map for the first time to move their hands and feet, and so they have finished addicted, before clearing his throat, began to say: "In Qing's opinion, since the son of God has an edict, the Lord has always eaten the king's salary, loyal to the king's affairs, have not forgotten the king, and also is not proud of forgetting his roots of the people, since it is non-consecutive. However, the cold sky and earth freezing, long-distance war, is not sympathetic to the people, Teng and Sui soldiers are powerful, rashly send troops is like hitting a stone with an egg, then not only can not deterrence effect, and call the court and the Lord face a big loss of face, is not wise move. Since it is inconvenient to confront the enemy head-on, why don't you try to stop them with words?"

Xu Shu stared and said, "Giving up without a fight is the best policy, but I just don't know where Shiguang wants to start?"

Yan Qing smiled faintly, but did not reply immediately, instead naming Jia Yan, who was if anything, "Wen He is from Guzang in Liangzhou, so I think it is necessary for him to be much clearer than I am about the local situation, right?"

History of this plan, can be exactly Jia Dang came up with, he will not mess up to steal the limelight.

Jia Yan raised an eyebrow and said, "Ma Han's face and heart are at odds, so we can separate the two and make them fight within themselves."

Yan Qing smiled and nodded, poked and prodded the location of Liangzhou on the map, compared to the territory under the momentum of Ma Teng and Han Sui, thinking about the presence of several generals, no longer bite the bullet, as far as possible to say a little easier to understand: "This is exactly the case. Troops to the King, at most, the loss of its fur, Ma Han two people see the situation is not good, since they can shrink back to Liangzhou to recuperate, we will be greatly wounded, can be said to be more than worth the loss. In case of Guanzhong at this time someone while my back is empty, rate of soldiers sneak attack, not only the back of the enemy, difficult to continue, and a back to help not enough, even the back road is also cut off, the people will be trapped in a desperate situation, and expect who can protect the son of God safety? Unless the army is already under Chang'an city, never send troops."

"However, a mountain cannot accommodate two tigers unless there is a male and a female," accidentally bringing out the second half of the sentence out of habit, feeling the atmosphere freeze for a moment, Yan Qing coughed lightly in embarrassment, pretending as if nothing had happened to him as he continued: "In the vast Liangzhou region, the only two families that are dominant are the two Ma and Han families, and they are so close to each other, so there is no reason why friction will not occur. There is no reason for friction not to occur. If they are united by profit, they will also be divided by profit, even if they are blood relatives and flesh and blood, there are countless people who suffer because of their power, not to mention the two factions that have established a climate."

Yan Qing confidently laughed: "Ancient two peaches to kill three soldiers, although Qing is not talented, but also willing to do this to the saint's advice to the people, will be horses to success, called a job Shun away from the two tigers."

Just as the crowd was silent and in deep thought, Lu Bu, whose face was indifferent but whose heart was always on guard, suddenly had a flash of insight and grasped the key point at once, suddenly slapped the table and said angrily, "What Chong Guang said yesterday was not another play on the cloth, or how could he have just come back to ask to go to Changan to face the saint again for the broken matter of those two male tigers!"

Yan Qing: "......"

It's your focus that seems to be the big problem, isn't it?
