Chapter 170 When Zhao Yun meets Lu Bu
Yuan Mai's bluffing strategy really made the atmosphere in Yijing City tense, and the morale of the army began to be restless. As the situation forced, Gongsun Zan had to take countermeasures and could not continue to defend himself.
Gongsun Mansion, the meeting hall, Gongsun Zan was convening military discussions with his civil and military aides to discuss countermeasures.
In the hall, Gongsun Zan sat upright on the tiger-skin seat in the center, with Gongsun Fan, Gongsun Yue, Guan Jing, Tian Kai, Tian Yu, Shan Jing and other civil and military staff standing on both sides.
"In my opinion, it is better to bet a game. I led 20,000 troops and forced to break out westward. I met with Zhang Ping from Heishan. Taking advantage of the empty troops in Yecheng, I am sneaking into Yecheng behind Yuan Shao. Maybe I can win by surprise. What do you think?" Seeing that his subordinates could not come up with ideas for the moment, Gongsun Zan had to throw out his plan to "surround Wei and save Zhao" and let his subordinates help the staff.
The chief Guan Jing first stood up to oppose: "Lord, in the opinion of the minister, this matter is absolutely not feasible. Yi Jing is our base camp, and all the food and supplies are piled up in the city. You should defend the city. When Yuan’s army is tired and the food and grass cannot be continued, they will naturally retreat. If the lord abandons the city and leaves, the morale of the army in the city will inevitably be dispersed. Under the strong attack of Yuan’s army, I wonder how long can we last?"
"Besides, according to the spies, there is Shen Pei in Ye City, Yuan Shang is in charge, and there are still 40,000 troops guarding it. Although the number of soldiers in Heishan is large, it is a mob and its combat power cannot be praised. If the attack on the city is not defeated and the rear is lost, the world may no longer have a foothold!"
Tian Kai also stood up and advised: "What Master Guan said is very true. In Kai's opinion, the lord should not come out lightly. Send an envoy to Heishan for help, and ask Zhang Yan to send troops to respond to each other and harass Yuan Shao. The Yuan army dug a lot of tunnels, but it was just a bluffing trick. We only need to appease the morale of the army and strengthen patrols in the city to ensure that there is no danger. It will take a long time for Yuan's army to supply food and grass, and it will retreat!"
After hearing the words of Guan Jing and Tian Kai, Gongsun Zan's heart was shaken again. He was undecided and pondered without saying a word.
Tian Yu stepped out and said, "It is the time when the enemy is in use. General Zilong is unparalleled in martial arts. The lord should release him from prison. He will climb to the top of the city and guard Yijing. He will definitely add a tiger general to our army!"
"absurd!"
Before Tian Yu finished speaking, Gongsun Zan's son stood up and refuted loudly, "The incident of Zhao Yun's affair with Yuan Mai has not been investigated clearly. How can he be easily released? What if he opens the city gate and lets Yuan Jun enter, can Yi Jing still save it? If he defends the city, he is not more than Zhao Yun, but less than Zhao Yun! You plead for Zhao Yun repeatedly. Are you accomplices with Zhao Yun and want to offer the city to the Yuan thief to gain wealth?"
"You...you swear!"
Tian Yu was furious when he heard this, and could no longer bear it. He argued loudly: "I, Tian Yu, do my best for the lord, sleeping all night long, and only seeking to live and die with Yi Jing. Why do you say this? Someone pleaded for General Zilong because he knew that he was a loyal and righteous man, so he spoke impartially! Why did the Major General slander someone and slander me for being rebellious?"
"Hmph... You are so close to Zhao Yun, and you are very suspicious of forming cliques and making personal gains. Before Zhao Yun's matter was found out, you were also suspicious of having an affair with Yuan Shao!" Gongsun Xu snorted disdainfully and refuted with contempt.
"Okay, okay... the enemy is facing you, don't make noise anymore, it will annoy me!" Gongsun Zan slapped the table in dissatisfaction and scolded him.
Tian Yu's disappointment with Gongsun Zan's performance was beyond words. It is understandable to spoil his son, but it is so arrogant that he doesn't argue with his own way and let him speak nonsense, which is really heartbreaking!
If Gongsun Xu insisted that Zhao Yun had an affair with Yuan Mai, and there were letters and spies as evidence, it was reasonable. This time, he slandered himself an affair with Yuan Shao just because he said a few good words for Zhao Yun. This was simply a false accusation out of thin air, and there was no way to blame him for being punished!
What is even more heartbreaking is that the lord actually made a mistake and planned to turn this matter over without distinguishing between right and wrong. He is loyal to the Gongsun family. In the end, will he get such a reward?
He was furious and had nowhere to say anything about his grievances. Tian Yu took off his helmet, took two steps forward, and placed it on Gongsun Zan's table: "Since the lord and the major general no longer trust Tian Yu, it's boring for me to stay. Finally, I will resign and return to my private house to think about my mistakes. Please send someone to find out what Tian Yu did. If I have any collusion with the Yuan family, let me deal with it!"
After saying that, without waiting for Gongsun Zan to say anything, he turned around and left Gongsun Mansion with great strides.
"Um……?"
Gongsun Zan was furious and threw the helmet in front of him to the ground. His eyes widened and he shouted angrily: "This city has not been broken yet. Do they all take me seriously? Tian Yu is really arrogant!"
"Please send someone to take Tian Yu and put him in prison to prevent him from having an affair with the Yuan thief!" Gongsun Xu took the opportunity to ask Tian Yu to be brought to him by law.
"Accepted!"
Gongsun Zan was furious and did not consider the consequences. He slapped the table and agreed to his son's request.
It is acceptable to Tian Yu collided with his son, but he was so rude to him and really didn't take himself seriously. If he let him do whatever he wants, in the eyes of the soldiers of the three armies, will my dignified "Bai Horse General" still have prestige?
Gongsun Xu immediately walked outside the door of the conference hall, recruited several iron-armored guards, and ordered them to take a team of personal guards to Tian Yu's mansion, take Tian Yu down, and lock him up with Zhao Yun in a prison. Several iron-armored guards agreed, took dozens of companions, left Gongsun's mansion and went straight to Tian's house to take people.
After a military discussion, not only did not come up with a plan to defeat the enemy, but also caused Tian Yu's incident. Yuan Shao was very upset and slapped the table and cursed.
Gongsun Xu made a list again and said: "Don't worry, my father, please allocate two thousand cavalry to your child. I am willing to break through tonight and go west to Taihang Mountain to find Zhang Yan, the general of the Central Army of the Punishment. I ask him to send troops to help. Attack inside and outside, I will definitely be able to retreat to the enemy!"
Gongsun Zan sighed: "Oh... Now, this is the only way!"
At the third update late at night, Gongsun Xu brought two thousand elite cavalrymen, quietly opened the west gate, and broke through to the west.
Gao Lan's night patrolmen tried their best to intercept. Although they shot more than 200 cavalrymen, they did not stop the elite "Baima Yicong". They were led by Gongsun Xu to break through. Gao Lan got the newspaper and sent cavalry to chase after him, but they were already far away and were no longer enough.
When Wang Shuang learned that someone in the city had broken through the siege and headed west, he hurriedly asked Yuan Mai: "Please order the pursuit of the emperor. The general is willing to lead the "Tiger Cavalry" to chase him. Even if he chased him to Taihang Mountain, he would annihilate the people and horses!"
Yuan Mai smiled slightly, looking mysterious: "Ziquan is a little restless. I have been waiting for the people in the city to break through to find Zhang Yan. If they don't leave the city, I'm afraid they won't be able to take Yi Jing for a while?"
"Uh...what do you say this? You will be confused?" Wang Shuang was a little confused about the young master's words.
"The secret of heaven cannot be revealed! Ziquan is only able to accumulate energy and wait for my order." Yuan Mai smiled slightly and signaled Wang Shuang to retreat.
At night, the strong wind blew and the tent "rustled".
Due to the inconvenience of accommodation for women in the military camp, Zhao Zhi and Lu Lingqi lived in the same tent with their husband Yuan Zhuan and slept on the same bed.
When it was late at night, Zhao Zhi was frowning, pillowing on her husband's arm, and said with a worry: "The city is high and thick, and it is difficult to break through for a while. There is no news from the city. I don't know what the good or bad of my brother is. It's really worrying!"
"Haha... Madam, I'm so relieved. I've asked the spies to search for where Zilong was imprisoned. In another two or three days, I'll get the exact location. I asked Zhou Cang to lead a team of men to dig the tunnel and go straight to the cell. I will definitely rescue my second brother!" Yuan Mai gently stroked Zhao's hair with his left hand and comforted softly.
"For my brother, you are troubled by your husband!" After hearing her husband's words, Zhao Zhi felt relieved, leaned on her red lips, and kissed Yuan Mai's cheek deeply.
Yuan Mai smiled slightly, pulled out his arm holding Zhao Meng, and put it into her underwear, tinkering on her chest, "I can't talk about it. I'm worried that after finding Zilong, he will not submit to me, and he has Liu Xuande in his heart. At that time, you have to help me persuade him very much. Whether you can take my eldest uncle is all tied to your husband!"
"No, my second brother's temper is sometimes very irritating. I'm really afraid of not accepting him!" After hearing his husband's words, Zhao Zhi bit her lip and said worriedly.
"Come on, come on, come on... I'll teach you a good idea!" Yuan Mai attached to Zhao Fo's ear, whispered for a while, and finally said with a smile: "As soon as you say, you can guarantee that Zilong will never leave again as I teach you!"
Zhao Zhi laughed at the ear: "Husband, you are so bad, you can think of this!"
Lying on the right side of Yuan Mai, Lu Lingqi looked at the two of them whispering constantly, feeling a little jealous, reached out to grab the "critical point" of her husband and teased her, "General Long is so difficult to ask for, how capable is he?"
After hearing the words of Lu, Yuan Mai knew that the woman was jealous, so he freed up his other hand and reached into her coat and wandered on the mountain. "Do you ask General Zilong about his abilities? I can tell you responsibly that he is the bravest army, both wise and brave, and one of the most powerful generals in the world!"
"Really? I don't believe it. If I have the chance, I want to experience it!" Lu Lingqi looked half-believing and half-doubted, "Since you praise him as brave as the three armies, how about I compare to my father?"
"Lu Bu vs. Zhao Yun?" Yuan Mai muttered in his heart. Logically speaking, it seemed that Lu Bu was stronger, but only God knows how long Zhao Yun can last!
"I don't know if my eldest brother is good or my father-in-law is good, but I want the two ladies to distinguish between them, come, come, come, fight for three hundred rounds. If one loses, it means that my relatives lose."
Yuan Mai smiled shamelessly and pressed the two beautiful ladies under him without saying a word...
The evening breeze blows, making the tent "slap" sound, and the night is late, and it is a good time to be confused. (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, novels are better and faster!
