After entering the woods, Lu Kuang immediately understood why the Youzhou army had not sent out patrol troops here. Not only did there be no road in the woods, but it also seemed particularly gloomy because the light could not penetrate the forest. If it weren't for the countless soldiers following him, Lu Kuang even had the urge to turn around and escape from the woods.

Lu Kuang called a guide and asked cautiously: "How long does it take for us to get out of this woods?"

"Return to General's words," he heard Lu Kuang's inquiry, and the guide leading the way quickly replied: "If everything goes well, we can leave this woods in only one day at most."

"If it goes well, it only takes one day." After Lu Kuang and other guides finished speaking, they repeated his words and asked back, "If it doesn't go well, how long will it take for us?"

The guide hesitated for a moment and then said, "If we get lost in the forest, it may take three to five days to get out. But general, don't worry, there are many wild animals in the forest, so don't worry about insufficient food."

In fact, when Lu Kuang asked the guide how long it would take to get out of the woods, the main reason was that he was worried that the soldiers would not carry much food. At this moment, he heard that there were many wild animals in the forest, and he suddenly felt much more at ease. He nodded and urged the horse to continue moving forward.

Yuan Xi was ignored by everyone, but at this moment he came to Yuan Tan's side and whispered: "Brother, you see it. Now Jizhou and Youzhou are in harmony. Even if we go back to Nanpi and seize military power from our younger brother, life will not be easy when we are sandwiched between the two of them."

Yuan Xi's words made Yuan Tan realize that if he wants to gain a foothold in Nanpi, he must start to choose to take the team now. If he stands in the right position, his future will naturally be bright; but if he stands in the wrong position, he will think he is about to fall into a state of doom.

So after Yuan Xi finished speaking, he asked back: "Second brother, which side do you think we should stand on?"

"The two ends of the rat are definitely not good, we can only choose one of them." Yuan Xichao looked around and saw that the soldiers around him were busy rushing to the road. No one noticed his brothers, so he lowered his voice and said, "Don't look at Han Ting Hou sending troops to escort us and willing to lend us troops. But Bohai County is surrounded by Youzhou. If we express our favorable feelings for Jizhou, we will be attacked by Gongsun Zan. You have also seen the situation today. Although Youzhou provoked many aspects, Jizhou is still tolerant. In this way, when we are attacked by Gongsun Zan, Han Ting Hou may sit idly by."

"Don't we have three thousand Jizhou troops under our command?" Yuan Tan disagreed with Yuan Xi's statement: "Will Han Ting Hou let their troops be destroyed by Gongsun Zan?"

"In order to achieve hegemony," Yuan Xi said coldly: "Not to mention just three thousand soldiers, what does 30,000 soldiers count? Brother, you have to make a decision early!"

Yuan Tan was confused by Yuan Xi's words. He looked at the soldiers and horses around him who were burying their heads in the forest and frowned and thought: "The territory of Bohai County is too small and surrounded by Youzhou. If Gongsun Zan really raises troops to attack, how should we deal with it? If the second brother said, Han Ting Hou might really give up Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang's three thousand troops to maintain the surface harmony with Gongsun Zan."

"Young Master Yuan," Just as Yuan Tan was thinking about it, he suddenly heard someone greeting him, "I see you feeling unconscious, I don't know what you are thinking?"

Yuan Tan turned his head and saw that it was Lu Xiang. Naturally, he could not tell the other party that he was considering which force he was relying on after Nanpi, but instead said, "It turned out to be General Lu Xiang. I am considering that it was getting late. Should we camp in the forest and wait until tomorrow morning."

Before entering the woods, Lu Xiang had considered rushing all night. At this moment, he saw that the light in the forest became darker and darker. If he knew that if he continued walking, many people would get separated. He quickly nodded and said, "What Master Yuan said is very true. Stay down and discuss with his brother, find a place close to the water source to camp, and wait for the morning to go tomorrow."

When Lu Xiang talked to Yuan Tan, although Yuan Xi was right beside him, Lu Xiang turned a blind eye to him. After talking to Yuan Tan, he immediately urged his horse to go ahead to find Lu Kuang and discuss with him about finding a suitable place to camp.

The soldiers walked forward five or six miles and finally found an open forest clearing with a small lake next to it. Lu Kuang thought this place was good, so he quickly issued an order: "Stop the soldiers and camp on the spot!"

After completing the camping, in order to prevent Yuan Xi from coming to be a lobbyist again, Lu Xiang specially set up a tent with Lu Kuang. At the same time, the tent where the Yuan brothers lived was placed on the edge of the camp. If jackals, tigers and leopards attacked at night, the camp where they were located would be the brunt of it.

Yuan Xi saw Lu Xiang's arrangement. He sat in the tent and said dissatisfiedly: "Brother, when you see how Lu Xiang dealt with us, you actually arranged our tent at the edge of the camp. If there are jackals in the forest at night, then you might get into our tent."

Although Yuan Tan was also very dissatisfied with the position that Lu Xiang arranged for them. But then he thought that his brother had gone to persuade Lu Xiang a few days ago, which must have caused the other party's disgust. At this moment, he was just using the matter of camping in the forest to punish his brothers and brothers.

After thinking about this joint, Yuan Tan said to Yuan Xi as usual: "Okay, second brother. Don't be fine and go to the two generals Lu. After a few days, their anger will calm down, and their attitude towards you and my brother will naturally be very different."

Although Lu Xiang placed the Yuan brothers' tents on the edge of the camp, he did not treat them badly in terms of food. Lu Kuang also sent someone to send them wild boars and rabbits hunted by the soldiers.

The next morning, the army continued to set off.

After more than four hours of trekking, he finally passed through the woods and arrived on the official road. Seeing the familiar official road in front of him, Yuan Tan's nose couldn't help but feel sore. He knew very well that as long as he walked along the official road to the north for three or four days, he could reach the foot of Nanpi City.

Yuan Xi saw that his elder brother's eyes were red, and he also said with emotion: "Brother, it's almost a year since we left Bohai County. I didn't expect that our brothers would have the chance to return there alively."

"Second brother, I have an idea." Yuan Tan suddenly spoke after Yuan Xi finished sighing, "Anyway, we will be back to Nanpi in a few days. But now we are ignorant of the situation in Nanpi City. Why don't we discuss with the two Generals Lu and send a visitor to inquire. If there is any change, we can also make plans early."

"What my brother said is very true." Yuan Xi agreed with Yuan Tan's statement. Just when he was about to urge his horse to go to Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang to discuss, he suddenly realized that the Lu brothers were unfriendly to him. If he made suggestions himself, he might be rejected directly. He turned his head and looked at Yuan Tan and said in embarrassment: "Brother, I think you should tell the two generals Lu about this matter."

"Okay." Yuan Tan understood what Yuan Xi was thinking very well, so he agreed readily: "I will go to see the two Generals Lu now and ask them to send people to Nanpi to inquire about the situation so that we can make the next plan."

Yuan Tan urged his horse to catch up with Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang who were walking in the front of the team, bowed to the two and said, "I have seen two generals."

When Lu Kuang saw that the person who greeted him was Yuan Tan, he asked with a smile: "Young Master Yuan, our army will arrive in Nanpi in a few days. I wonder what the young master thinks?"

"Mixed feelings, mixed feelings." Yuan Tanlian said two mixed feelings and then got back to the point: "Tan has something to do, I want to ask the two generals, I wonder if it is possible?"

When Yuan Tan said that he had something to ask him, Lu Kuang said carelessly: "Why should you be so polite to the eldest son? If you have something to do, just speak up."

"Tan has been away from Nanpi for a year. There is no way to know what it has become now." Yuan Tan said slowly: "Tan wants to ask the two generals to send someone to Nanpi to inquire and find out the situation inside."

Regarding Yuan Tan's request, the two brothers Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang looked at each other and nodded in agreement: "The request of Master Yuan is a trivial matter. We will immediately send someone to Nanpi to inquire."

After entering the woods, Lu Kuang immediately understood why the Youzhou army had not sent out patrol troops here. Not only did there be no road in the woods, but it also seemed particularly gloomy because the light could not penetrate the forest. If it weren't for the countless soldiers following him, Lu Kuang even had the urge to turn around and escape from the woods.
