Chapter 450: Heading South to Xuzhou (Part 2)

Although Han Zhan said that he let Guan Yu go and Zhang Fei choose to stay or stay, he was actually insincere. How could he bear to leave such a powerful general? After he told them in public that they would choose to go or stay, he felt very regretful, fearing that Guan and Zhang would return to Yedu to find Liu Bei without hesitation.

After hearing Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's reply, the big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground. He pretended to be generous and said: "The two vanguards must be very tired after fighting for several months. You might as well go back to their respective camps to rest first. After two days of rest, it is not too late to lead their troops south."

After Guan Yu and Zhang Fei left, Guo Jia saw that he was the only one in the lobby, Han Zhan and Zhao Yun, so he approached Han Zhan and asked in a low voice: "Lord, if Guan and Zhang are determined to go to Yedu, what are you going to deal with?" As he said that, he wiped his neck with his palm, "Do you want to send someone to put them on the road..."

Although Guo Jia's words came to an abrupt end, Han Zhan still understood the other party's meaning, and shook his head and said, "Your words are wrong. Even if the two of them don't want to stay, I will let them leave and will never send anyone to plot against them on the road."

"But have the lord considered that Guan and Zhang are more brave. If they return to Yedu, they will definitely find a way to rescue Liu Bei." Guo Jia reminded Han Zhan: "Liu Xuande is not a person who has been underestimated for a long time. If he escapes from difficulties, he will definitely find a way to leave Yedu with Guan and Zhang and make a comeback elsewhere. At that time, it will be our confidant."

Han Zhan smiled at Guo Jia's concern, and then said carelessly: "Fengxiao is too worried. I know the courage of Guan and Zhang. However, even if Liu Xuande gets the help of them, it will probably be difficult to become a climate."

Seeing Han Zhan saying so affirmatively, Guo Jia couldn't help but ask curiously: "Why is the lord so confident that he thinks Liu Xuande can't become a climate?"

"The two of Guan and Zhang are both enemies of thousands of people. They can be invincible when charging into battle, but they can only be generals and not officials." Han Zhan explained to Guo Jia: "Sun Qian, a subordinate of Liu Bei, is a white-faced scholar, and is not a talent for economic and economic support. If he does not have the help of a genius, he will be like reaching the sky."

When he said this, Han Zhan thought to himself: Liu Bei's so-called "Han clan relative" has been proven to be a false figure with his own inspiration. Without this dazzling halo, there will not be so many civil and military officials loyal to the Han Dynasty to join him. In addition, Zhao Yun, Xu Shu and others have become their subordinates, which makes Liu Bei's strength far weaker than in history. It may be difficult and difficult for him to do anything.

"It seems that the lord has already thought about this matter carefully, but Jiaduo is worried." After Guo Jia said this, he changed the topic: "General Ziyi has been recruiting soldiers in Xuzhou for several months, but no news has come. I wonder if he has recruited new recruits from Danyang for the lord?"

After Guo Jia reminded him, Han Zhan immediately thought of sending Taishi Ci to Xuzhou to recruit soldiers. It has been a few months since then, but there is no information at all. He does not know whether the Danyang Xiong soldiers he wanted have been recruited, and when he can reach the border between Qingzhou and Xuzhou to meet with his main force.

Thinking of this, he quickly ordered Zhao Yun: "Brother, immediately send capable personnel to Xuzhou to find Ziyi's whereabouts and see if he has recruited Danyang new recruits."

"As for the order!" Zhao Yun bowed and gave a bow, turned around and walked out of the house quickly, and arranged personnel outside.

"Lord," Guo Jia continued to ask, "If General Ziyi brought back Danyang's new soldiers, I wonder how you plan to resettle them? Should you disperse them among the armies or form an army alone? If they form an army alone, who should lead them?"

"This, this..." Han Zhanguang considered that the Danyang Army was a powerful army during the Three Kingdoms period, so he couldn't wait to order Taishi Ci to recruit soldiers in Xuzhou, and did not think about how to resettle the troops after they came back. At this moment, he heard Guo Jia's question, and he was speechless.

Guo Jia saw Han Zhan’s embarrassment and quickly suggested to him: “Lord, have you named your guards the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and Tiger Guard?”

"That's right, there is only one tiger and leopard cavalry now. The Tiger Guard will have to wait until we return to Yedu before forming it." Han Zhan said here, immediately guessing Guo Jia's voice outside the painting, and asked tentatively: "Fengxiao, what do you mean is to directly form the new recruits in Danyang into the Tiger Guard?"

Seeing that Han Zhan guessed his intention, Guo Jia nodded with a smile: "Lord, Jia Zheng has this intention. After General Ziyi brought this new army back, he will be directly reorganized into the Tiger Guard Army to be responsible for defending the safety of the lord."

"It's so good," Han Zhan agreed with Guo Jia's suggestion very much. He continued: "After Ziyi brought the new army back, he will be reorganized into the Tiger Guard Army, and Ziman will come to command."

"General Dian Wei will command the Tiger Guard?" Guo Jia looked surprised when he heard Han Zhan say this: "Lord, Ziman is extremely brave and suitable to charge on the battlefield. The Tiger Guard Commander is the leader. In the opinion of Jia, it is better to appoint others."

Han Zhan thought to himself that in real history, Dian Weike has always been Cao Cao's escort until he died in Zhang Xiu's army in the end. Thinking of this, he said to Guo Jia: "Although Fengxiao, Ziman is extremely brave, he lacks strategy and is not suitable for commanding troops. Let him command the tiger guards of this marquis."

Seeing that Han Zhan had made up his mind, Guo Jia couldn't argue anymore, so he could only follow the other party's wishes: "Since the lord's position as the commander of the Tiger Guard, and the lord's intention is to General Ziman, then the lord's responsibility will be the lord's decision."

As the two were talking, Zhao Yun, who had just left, hurried in again. He said to Han Zhan with a sad face: "Second brother, Ziyi sent a messenger and said that there was something important to ask for a lord."

When Han Zhan saw Zhao Yun's face, he immediately realized that something might have happened and asked: "Brother, is there any bad news?"

Zhao Yun nodded vigorously and replied: "According to the messenger, Ziyi recruited thousands of new recruits in Xuzhou. On his way back, he was chased by troops sent by Yuan Shu. Ziyi took the new recruits and left, and now he has retreated to Licheng, Donghai Kingdom. Please send troops to rescue as soon as possible."

When Han Zhan learned that Taishi Ci was actually chased by Yuan Shu's soldiers, he couldn't help but frown. He walked to the map hanging beside him, looked carefully, and asked in confusion: "Yuan Shu is competing with Liu Yao for Yangzhou, why did he send someone to Xuzhou? Did Tao Qian ignore it?"
