When the messengers reported to Yuan Shao that Mu Shun had been frightened to death as soon as he went into battle, everyone present was dumbfounded.

You have to find someone brave enough to fight with you. This timid one was frightened to death as soon as he got close to Lu Bu...

Yuan Shao touched his chin. After hearing the news from the messenger, the shock in his heart was no longer so much.

Moreover, he could use Lu Bu's help to make other princes lose their troops and generals.

The last time they went to battle against Hua Xiong, Gongsun Zan, Yuan Shu, and Han Fu all made sacrifices. This time, they can kill others...

Mu Shun and Fang Yue were under Wang Kuang and Zhang Yang, and Sun Jian had already suffered heavy losses, so naturally he would not go to war.

Not to mention Cao Cao, he didn't even have many soldiers, so if he was allowed to send troops, he would be resented.

What's more, Cao Cao and he were childhood friends. Although they grew up and had less contact, the friendship was still there.

Zhang Miao, Qiao Mao and Bao Xin were friends with him, and Yuan Yi was his brother.

Eleven of the eighteen princes were gone, and among the remaining ones, the only ones he was more afraid of were Kong Rong and Ma Teng.

Ma Teng's words are not easy to fool, so it seems that the only way to start is from Kong Rong.

After all, Confucian scholars who were loyal to the Han Dynasty were always pedantic.

Scholars don't know what happens between warriors.

Thinking of this, Yuan Shao pretended to lower his head, and then raised his head with a sad look on his face.

He sighed and said:

"Oh, General Kong, it's so sad to think that you and I are both ministers of the Han Dynasty, but we can't save the Han Dynasty from danger. It's sad to think that all the eighteen princes gathered here, but we were blocked by a little Lu Bu.

Stay on the road..."

Yuan Shao did not finish his words. He pursed his lips and shook his head slowly, as if he was really worried about the emperor who was far away.

Who is Kong Rong?

That is the twentieth generation grandson of Confucius!

His bones are steeped in feudalism and the Han Dynasty. In terms of loyalty to the Han Dynasty, he is definitely one of the best.

Hearing Yuan Shao's reasonable words, he couldn't help but be moved by it.

So Kong Rong sighed empathetically and said to his men: "Go and bring General Wu over."

Then, he stood up hastily and said to the frowning Yuan Shao: "Leader, there is no need to worry, there is a general under Rong Zhang who may be ready to fight!"

When the generals saw this, they all showed happy expressions.

Some people felt lucky that someone could fight against Lu Bu, while others laughed at Kong Rong's stupidity.

"Kong Beihai is too easy to provoke. Yuan Shao deceived him with just a few words."

Gongsun Zan took a sip of wine, glanced at Yuan Shao who was sitting on the stage, and murmured quietly.

Lu Zihang, who replaced Zhang Feng as a temporary bodyguard, stood next to Gongsun Zan, silent.

He suddenly thought of something, and immediately possessed Gongsun Zan and whispered in Gongsun Zan's ear:

"My lord, do you want to see Yuan Shao defeated?"

"Oh? When you say that, I want to see if you can do it?" Gongsun Zan immediately became interested after hearing this.

As Yuan Shao's sworn enemy, he longed to see Yuan Shao defeated. It would be best if he could be beaten to the ground and chewed in the mud.

After arousing Gongsun Zan's interest, Lu Zihang lifted his glasses that had slipped down to his nose.

Of course he has a way, but he will lose some remuneration.

But for future plans, it doesn’t matter if I lose a thousand or two thousand in salary!

In this way, Lu Zihang whispered in Gongsun Zan's ear:

"I can't do it. I'm just an unknown young general, but the lord can. If a villain writes a piece of paper and the lord reads it, he will definitely be disgusted, but he will definitely be resented by Yuan Shao. This can only be done by the lord.

It’s up to you to decide.”

"Interesting, interesting, you tell me, I'll try it."

Gongsun Zan nodded with interest.

Seeing that Gongsun Zan agreed, Lu Zihang immediately took out a small piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Gongsun Zan.

Gongsun Zan was suddenly startled. He looked at Lu Zihang beside him in disbelief, feeling a little strange.

You are already ready for the co-authorship. Why do I feel...you are more anxious than me to see Yuan Shao defeated?

Gongsun Zan turned his head back speechlessly. He spread out the note in his hand and scanned the words written on it.

After reading, he slowly stood up and bowed directly to Yuan Shao.

His sudden reaction made Yuan Shao jump from his seat.

Yuan Shao leaned back suddenly. After recovering, he slowly leaned forward and said:

"General Gongsun, why are you doing this great gift?"

"The leader of the alliance is righteous. Zan never thought that the leader of the alliance would end up in the Han Dynasty like this. Just now Zan heard the remarks of the alliance leader and was deeply frightened. There is a general in the Han Dynasty, so why not be upset!"

Gongsun Zan's extremely exaggerated praise caught Yuan Shao off guard.

He and Gongsun Zan had so many fights, and it seemed like this guy had nothing to hold back.

But what surprised him was that his literary level had somehow improved a bit, and after a few sentences, he could only accept his praise.

He couldn't deny his loyalty to the Han Dynasty in front of everyone, right?

"Haha, General Gongsun is too polite. If you have nothing to do, just sit down."

Yuan Shao touched his forehead in embarrassment. He didn't want to answer Gongsun Zan's words now. He always felt that Gongsun Zan was digging a hole for him.

But Gongsun Zan didn't want to let him go.

Gongsun Zan straightened up and said loudly:

"No, Zan still has something to say. Leader Yuan is not only very talented in literature and military skills, but he also has many people who are good at conquering and fighting under his command, which Zan is quite envious of."

"Let's not talk about Yan Liang and Wen Chou who are tied for first place in Hebei. Let's talk about Zhang He, Gao Lan, Ju Yi Qianzhao, and even Han Meng, Gao Gan, Zhu Ling, Jiang Qi, Ma Yan, and Jiao Chu are all better.

I have waited several times longer, which really makes Zan ashamed."

"By the way, Tian Feng and Xu Youke, the civil servants of the alliance leader, came with the general? They have caused Zan a lot of trouble. It would be great if Zan also had such smart people under his command.

"

After saying these words, Yuan Shao suddenly felt numb.

When did Gongsun Zan photograph the spies in his hometown, and how did he find out who was under his command so clearly?

Could it be that he has really admired me for a long time?!

Moreover, Gongsun Zan was undoubtedly putting him on the fire.

"Oh~ It turns out that the alliance leader has so many talents, it's really enviable."

"That's right. There are thirteen generals who can be named by others. It's really scary."

"Sigh, Chief Yuan's family has a great cause. Unlike us, he even has the trouble to choose someone who can fight with Lu Bu. It's really embarrassing for us."

After Gongsun Zan finished speaking, many princes present immediately became pale.

They were desperately trying to kill each other. Yuan Shao arrived with a bunch of generals in his arms, but none of them refused to fight.

I thought he only had Yan Liangwen Chou under his command, but I didn’t expect that he actually had so many generals under his command!!

All of a sudden, all the complaints and irritations were thrown at Yuan Shao's face.

Even Kong Rong frowned. He was pedantic but not a traitor. After others talked about it, he understood that Yuan Shao wanted to use Lu Bu's hand to reduce his combat power.

"Since the Alliance Leader has so many generals who are good at fighting, let's ask the Alliance Leader to face that Lu Bu together with Rong. Alliance Leader Yuan, you won't be reluctant to let him go, right?"

"this......"

Yuan Shao was sitting upright, but he really didn't expect that Gongsun Zan's few words would actually put him in a dilemma.

He really didn't want to fight Lu Bu, but... he couldn't refuse Kong Rong's request.

If he refused now, wouldn't it mean that he wanted to weaken Kong Rong's strength?

Tsk...this damn Gongsun Zan.

"Master Kong is right, Shao really should do his part, someone! Inform..."

Just as Yuan Shao raised his hand, Yuan Shao's speech was interrupted by a loud roar from outside the account.

"No need for this!"

A calm and loyal voice came into the tent, and a tall man with a tiger's back and a monkey's arms strode into the tent.

He held a short halberd in each hand, wore a golden-red helmet, crimson armor, and carried a strange-shaped long bow on his back.

The long bow was made of flesh, blood and white bones. The bowstrings were like the nerves of the human body and had many tentacles.

If you look closely, you will see that each end of the string is inlaid with an eyeball that can move back and forth. They will rotate several times from time to time, as if they are watching something.
