~7 min read 1,345 words

The dancing girls, including Guo Tai and others, all turned to look at Yuan Ji.

"Little Master Yuan, this is... what happened?" Guo Tai looked at Yuan Ji in confusion: "Did something happen?"

A look of grief and indignation appeared on Yuan Ji's face, but he waved his hand with difficulty and said: "General Guo, you continue. There are indeed some things, but... but it's nothing."

"I have disturbed General Guo's interest. You continue, I will go first."

Saying this, Yuan Ji was about to walk out.

However, Guo Tai blocked Yuan Ji's path.

"What does Little Master Yuan mean by this!" Guo Tai blocked Yuan Ji and said: "If Little Master Yuan has something that can use us, just say it. If Little Master Yuan doesn't say it, that is looking down on us!"

Guo Tai patted his chest and said: "If there is any other skill, we don't have it, but when it comes to fighting and killing, it is not a problem."

Yuan Ji looked at Guo Tai blocking his path.

And looked at the crowd behind Guo Tai.

"That's right, Little Master Yuan, just say whatever you have. As long as we can be of use, we have no second words!"

Li Le and Hu Cai also echoed.

Only Yang Feng stood to the side, his expression thoughtful, without saying a word.

"Alas..."

Yuan Ji sighed and said with difficulty: "Actually, this... how should I put it."

"Some time ago, my clansman, Tiger-Brave General of the Household Yuan Shu, was ordered to pursue the He clan, but later, by mistake, he arrived at Anyi County. Later, in Anyi County, because of some small matters, he had a conflict with the subordinates of Liangzhou Shepherd Duan Yu. The subordinates of Duan Yu were fierce in temperament. Originally, my clansman Yuan Shu didn't want to do anything, but the subordinates of Duan Yu actually committed suicide, so Duan Yu blamed the matter on my clansman Yuan Shu."

"This is not it." Yuan Ji looked at the Yuan family general behind him: "Just now, the general sent news saying that Duan Yu led troops to Anyi, killed over a thousand people, and also wanted to execute my clansman Yuan Shu."

"Although my clansman was wrong, the crime does not deserve death, and Duan Yu's leading troops to attack Anyi this time is somewhat inappropriate. Generals Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun are currently leading troops to pursue Duan Yu, and it seems they have come in the direction of Wenxi County."

Duan Yu!

When these two words came out of Yuan Ji's mouth, Guo Tai and the others in the hall immediately became spirited.

The name Duan Yu is now deafening, known to everyone in the world.

Guo Tai, as a person from Hedong Commandery, is adjacent to Taiyuan Commandery, and has long heard of this name.

"How can Duan Yu be so domineering?" Guo Tai looked at Yuan Ji and said: "The Tiger-Brave General of the Household didn't kill his subordinates, how dare he kill an official of the imperial court like this?"

"Is Duan Yu not afraid of the imperial court's blame?"

Yuan Ji sighed helplessly and shook his head: "The Emperor has just ascended the throne and is still young. The Empress Dowager, in order to stabilize the political situation, can only follow Duan Yu to avoid rebellion in Liangzhou. There is no other way. The imperial court knows that Duan Yu is arrogant, but it can only endure it."

Guo Tai raised an eyebrow and said: "In the beginning, that Duan Yu was just a hunter in Jinyang, not as good as our background. Now he is in a high position, yet he is so arrogant and domineering."

"Little Master Yuan, you just said that Duan Yu is taking the Tiger-Brave General of the Household and fleeing to Wenxi County?"

Yuan Ji nodded: "Currently, he should be near Wenxi County."

"Little Master Yuan, if, if we surround Duan Yu and capture Duan Yu..."

"If we capture Duan Yu, is it a merit or a fault?" Guo Tai asked: "How many troops does Duan Yu have?"

Yuan Ji's eyes lit up.

But on the surface, he was still very calm and said: "Hundreds, only a few hundred cavalry."

"At this time, General Huangfu Song and General Zhu Jun are leading an army of fifty thousand."

Fifty thousand!

Plus their army of one hundred thousand.

Fifteen thousand people surrounding a few hundred, isn't that easy?

"To tell you the truth." Yuan Ji took a deep breath and said in a low voice: "If it weren't for the Empress Dowager fearing that Duan Yu has many troops in Liangzhou, she would never follow Duan Yu like this. If General Guo..."

"If General Guo can really solve the Empress Dowager's heart trouble, that would definitely be a great achievement. I am willing to recommend General Guo in front of the Empress Dowager and my uncle. Perhaps General Guo will be the next Liangzhou Shepherd..."

"Someone, General Guo is also tired today, let these dancing girls serve General Guo well to rest, and wait for General Guo to show his power tomorrow morning!"

PS: Little Muchen's condition is recurring, he started having a high fever again today, vomited more than ten times in one day, and even what he ate was vomited out. Now he can't eat anything. He just finished the anti-vomiting injection and fever-reducing medicine. My heart is in a mess, I am really sorry to everyone, the update is late. ===== CHAPTER 1293 =====

"If General Guo can truly resolve the Empress Dowager's heart-trouble, that would certainly be a great merit. I am willing to recommend General Guo before the Empress Dowager and my uncle."

Guo Tai turned his head to look at his subordinates, Li Le, Hu Cai, and the others.

Several of them also nodded one after another.

Isn't this a massive merit laid out right before their eyes?

And it is the kind of merit that one can easily grasp just by reaching out a hand.

Wenxi County is only a few dozen li away from here, and it is only another few dozen li to Baibo Valley.

As long as they mobilize troops and dispatch generals to blockade the intersections and mountain passes, they will certainly be able to block Duan Yu.

With fifty thousand pursuing troops behind and one hundred thousand grand army blocking in front.

Duan Yu will have no way to escape even with wings.

Let's do it!

"Young Master Yuan!" Guo Tai patted his chest and guaranteed, "Young Master Yuan, rest assured, this matter is on us."

"Since Duan Yu is fleeing northward, he must pass through here. I will send men back now to raise the army early tomorrow morning to intercept Duan Yu."

"I guarantee to capture Duan Yu and rescue the Colonel of the Gentlemen of the Household of the Tiger's Might."

"It's just one Duan Yu, with a mere few hundred troops; can we not take him down with our one hundred thousand men!"

A trace of a smile appeared at the corners of Yuan Ji's mouth.

It is done.

Then he said with flattery, "General Guo taking action is naturally reliable."

"If you can capture Duan Yu, then General Guo shall be credited with the first merit."

"After I return to Luoyang, I will certainly recommend General Guo to my uncle and the Empress Dowager; perhaps General Guo will be the next Governor of Liangzhou..."

"Someone come! General Guo is also tired today; let these few dancing girls serve General Guo well as he rests, and wait for General Guo to display his divine might early tomorrow morning!"

PS: Little Muchen's illness is recurring. He started running a high fever again today, vomited more than ten times in one day, and threw up everything he ate; now he cannot even eat anything. He just finished an anti-vomiting injection and fever-reducing medicine. My heart is in chaos, and I am truly sorry to all you great readers for the late update.
