    Guo Huai was finally convinced, convinced by Yuan Fang's magnanimity and resourcefulness, and even more convinced by Yuan Fang's methods.

    For Yuan Fang, no matter how you obey the law, as long as you are willing to surrender to me and work hard for me, even if you succumb to my hands.

    "Boji's surrender really makes me more powerful. Come on, bring some wine. I want to drink a thousand cups with Boji, haha¡ª¡ª"

    Once Guo Huai surrendered, Yuan Fang was generous and did not hesitate to drink good wine.

    At the beginning, Guo Huai was still worried. After all, he was "calculated" by Yuan Fang and was forced to submit.

    But soon, Guo Huai was infected by Yuan Fang's generous demeanor, and the grudge was quietly resolved.

    After a few glasses of wine, Guo Huai cupped his hands and said, "Second Young Master treats me so well, I should know how to repay my kindness. I have some words of advice, but I don't know whether I should say them or not."

    Yuan Fang waved his hand and said with a bold smile: "If you have anything to say, just say it. I like to hear you tell the truth."

    "Now that the young master has defeated Liu Bei, Gongsun Zan will definitely increase his troops to counterattack in the plains after receiving the news. With our military strength, if the enemy launches a frontal attack with superior strength, it will be very disadvantageous for us."

    Guo Huai analyzed the situation and finally said: "So I believe that the young master should ask the lord for additional troops as soon as possible to strengthen our army's strength to cope with the enemy's counterattack."

    Guo Huai¡¯s words made Yuan Fang calm down.

    To be fair, Liu Bei's strength is superior to his own. The previous failure was largely due to Liu Bei falling into his own scheme.

    As Guo Huai said, if Gongsun Zan sent more troops to Liu Bei and ordered Liu Bei's troops to come out of the plains and launch a frontal attack, he would not be able to engage in a frontal confrontation with only 5,000 troops on hand.

    "This Guo Huai does have some strategic insights. He gave me useful advice as soon as he joined me. It seems that I have spent a lot of effort to win him over, and it is worth the money"

    After thinking deeply for a moment, Yuan Fang nodded and praised: "What Bo Ji said is absolutely true. I will write a letter right away and ask my father for merit and increase the army."

    Yuan Fang not only accepted Guo Huai's advice, but also asked Guo Huai to ghostwrite for him and edit a letter for Yuan Shao.

    Yuan Fang did this, firstly, because he is a time traveler and is indeed not good at calligraphy and literary talent. Secondly, he also wanted to test Guo Huai's literary style.

    Guo Huai was secretly surprised. He didn't expect Yuan Fang to be so trusting in his employment. He had just joined. Yuan Fang not only accepted his advice, but also asked him to write and edit books for Yuan Shao.

    This kind of unquestioning demeanor really made Guo Huai feel flattered.

    "Compared with the second young master's magnanimity, Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi are really inferior"

    Guo Huai admired it in his heart, but he quickly wrote a book without thinking.

    Yuan Fang examined it carefully and saw that Guo Huai's letter was carefully crafted and well written.

    Yuan Fang knew that Guo Huai in history was very outstanding in both literary and military strategies. Wen Neng could serve as governor for one side and provide for the people and the country, and Wan Neng fought against the Shu Han and won many battles.

    Now after listening to Guo Huai's advice and looking at Guo Huai's literary talent, Yuan Fang realized that the historical records were true. This Guo Huai was indeed a talented man with both civil and military talents.

    "This Guo Huai is really worth it."

    Yuan Fang was satisfied and immediately sent someone to deliver the letter of request for merit to Yuan Shao at the Northern Front Camp with a fast ride of 800 miles.

    However, after Yuan Fang¡¯s document asking for merit and additional troops was sent out, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was no news about it.

    Time passed day by day, and the detailed operations in Qingzhou returned intelligence. As expected by Guo Huai, Gongsun Zan began to send more troops to Liu Bei on the plains.

    With Gongsun Zan¡¯s reinforcements, Liu Bei gradually licked the scars of Ganling¡¯s defeat and began to sharpen his sword, preparing to launch a large-scale attack on Qinghe Kingdom.

    While Yuan Fang was training his troops intensively, he also revised several documents and asked Yuan Shao for more troops.

    Under Yuan Fang's repeated urging, Yuan Shaocai responded impatiently, rejecting Yuan Fang's request for additional troops on the grounds that the main battle with Gongsun Zan was imminent and he had no time to divide the rear, and told Yuan Fang to find a way on his own.  To block the enemy's attack from Qingzhou.

    Snapped!

    Yuan Fang threw Yuan Shao's reply on the table and snorted coldly: "My father is really partial. He is afraid that if I win another battle, he will not give me an additional soldier."

    The generals on the left and right, such as Hao Zhao and Zhu Ling, also looked angry and were quite dissatisfied with Yuan Shao's refusal to increase his troops.

    "How did the staff react at Beida Camp?" Yuan Fang turned to Yuan Gui.

    Yuan Guidao: "Master, according to what we have done in DaWhen I asked my informants, it was Xin Ping and Xu You who advocated not adding more troops to us. Only Tian Feng persuaded the lord to add more troops to us, and the rest of the civil servants and generals remained silent.  "

    "No wonder, it turns out that Yuan Tan is causing trouble in the dark again." Yuan Fang sneered.

    Xin Ping and Xu You, like Guo Tu, are both Ruying scholars. Most of the people in this faction have close relations with Yuan Tan, and many of them are even secretly taken as confidants by Yuan Tan.

    Yuan Shao attacked Youzhou in the north. Although Guo Tu stayed in Yecheng, Xin Ping and Xu You accompanied the army as staff officers. These two people had been Yuan Shao's confidants in their early years, and their words were very important to Yuan Shao.

    Yuan Fang guessed that Yuan Tan secretly conspired with Xin and Xu and asked them to persuade Yuan Shao not to send more troops to him.

    "If the Qinghe Kingdom is lost, the lord's flanks will be threatened. The eldest son has no regard for the overall situation. It is really"

    Guo Huai shook his head and sighed, deeply disappointed with Yuan Tan, his old master.

    "Second Young Master, what should we do now?" Zhu Ling asked in a solemn tone.

    The generals all looked at Yuan Fang, waiting for Yuan Fang to make up his mind.

    Yuan Fang touched his chin with his hand, pondered for a long time, and said calmly: "It seems that I must go to the northern front in person to convince my father to increase our troops."

    In fact, Yuan Fang believes that with his current strength, even if Liu Bei gets reinforcements and comes to invade in large numbers, he is sure to hold Qinghe Kingdom until Liu Bei has no choice but to retreat.

    But in that case, even if Liu Bei is finally forced back, he will inevitably lose a lot of soldiers and horses, and a lot of money and food.

    Yuan Fang is not as rich as Yuan Xi, and he cannot afford to spend money, food, soldiers and horses.

    Furthermore, Yuan Fang¡¯s move to capture Qingzhou in the name of Yuan Shao was actually to gain territory for himself. Naturally, the more troops and horses he could ¡°cheat¡± from Yuan Shao, the better.

    After much thought, Yuan Fang decided to go to the northern camp to see if he could get some soldiers and horses from Yuan Shao.

    Having made up his mind, Yuan Shao told the three generals, Hao Zhao, Zhu Ling and Guo Huai, to guard the city and camp strictly and wait for his return.

    Yuan Fangze left the camp that day, took Yuan Gui and dozens of other soldiers, and rushed to the direction of success at starry night.

    Lecheng was more than three hundred miles away from Ganling City. Yuan Fang and his party rode quickly and entered Hejian County in less than a day.

    He looked up at the sun and saw that dusk was approaching. Yuan Fang led his troops to the nearest Gonggao City to rest for one night before sending out troops to the Lecheng Camp in the morning.

    Looking up into the distance, the south gate of Gonggao City came into view. Yuan Fang slowed down and walked slowly into the city gate.

    There were a dozen passers-by scattered on the official road, all looking north in a hurry, trying to enter Gonggao City to spend the night before the city gate closed at nightfall.

    But there were only two figures walking south against the current.

    The two people walking on the road looked out of place with everyone, and they couldn't help but attract Yuan Fang's eyes.

    Looking around, I saw a boy who looked like a book boy, leading a black donkey, with two wine gourds hanging from the donkey's neck.

    On the back of the donkey, a young man was riding backwards.

    The young man was dressed in a Confucian shirt and dressed like a scribe, but he held a wine gourd high and poured wine in big gulps. He described it as indulgent and completely lacking in the elegance of a literati.

    ¡°Good wine, good wine, drinking good wine and watching the sunset, it¡¯s so happy, haha~~¡±

    The young man laughed heartily, raised his head and took another big sip. The drink splashed all over his face, but he didn't mind at all.

    "What a crazy drunkard"

    Pedestrians on the left and right were pointing, covering their noses and turning away, with disgust in their eyes.

    The young man¡¯s crazy energy made Yuan Fang feel very cool. When he passed by, he couldn¡¯t help but take a second look.

    When Yuan Fang saw the young man's face, he couldn't help but look strange.

    "Could it be him?"
