It is said that the master humiliates his ministers and dies. Seeing the attitude of the scouts, Gongsun Yue's personal guards couldn't help but feel angry and pulled out their steel swords to kill.
"Hmph, even a dying person dares to act arrogantly. I will turn you into a hornet's nest with just a flick of my finger."
After the captain finished speaking, he raised his hand crossbow, and the cavalry under his command did the same. They raised their hand crossbows one after another, while Gongsun Yue's personal guards dismounted one after another and surrounded the carriage with shields in hand.
"Cough cough cough."
Gongsun Yue's cough sounded from the carriage, and then he slowly opened the door curtain.
"I am Gongsun Yue. I have something important to ask to see General Zhao Yun."
"Okay, since General Gongsun Yue is here in person, come with me."
The tense situation immediately eased as soon as Gongsun Yue showed up, because they had fought against Gongsun Zan and the others, and they still knew Gongsun Yue, the number two figure.
A dozen scouts escorted Gongsun Yue's carriage toward the camp. The further they went, the more scouts they encountered. In the end, there were hundreds of scouts wandering around the carriage.
"General Gongsun is here, Zhao Yun is polite."
When Gongsun Yue's carriage arrived at the camp, Zhao Yun and Gao Lan had already arrived at the camp gate. Although the two sides were now in a hostile relationship, Zhao Yun did not do anything rude.
"General Zilong, General Boyu, you are polite."
Gongsun Yue quickly got out of the car and saluted the two generals.
"please."
The three of them walked into the camp hand in hand. There was neither a sword or an ax to show off their power, nor a big iron pot to intimidate others.
They each took their seats. Zhao Yun and Gao Lan did not take the first place, but sat opposite Gongsun Yue.
"General Gongsun, please."
"Two generals, please come together."
The three of them picked up their wine glasses and drank a glass of wine together.
"Two generals, we came here hand in hand. I wonder where Yuan Zhoumu is."
After a glass of wine, Gongsun Yue did not hesitate and directly asked about Yuan Shu's whereabouts.
"General Gongsun, please tell me what you are doing here."
Gongsun Yue's inquiry about Yuan Shu's whereabouts could be regarded as an insinuation. He wanted to detect Yuan Shu's army's movements from the side and make the most appropriate judgment, but Zhao Yun was not fooled.
"Other than that, I don't need to tell you the news of Liu Yu's death. The two generals are also aware of it, and the fate of his death is also known to everyone. I won't play charades anymore. My eldest brother is willing to support Yuan Zhoumu as the Lord of Youzhou.
.”
Zhao Yun tasted Gongsun Yue's words and then smiled slightly.
"Whether my lord is the lord of Youzhou or not is not something Grand Administrator Gongsun can decide, but since Grand Administrator Gongsun has such an idea, he must also have requirements."
Seeing Zhao Yun smiling, Gongsun Yue also smiled slightly.
"Actually, it's nothing. Earlier, Yuan Zhoumu sent someone to talk and said that he supported my eldest brother to become Youzhou Mu. Now he is willing to become Yuan Zhou Mu's subordinate. There is only one condition, and that is that Yuyang County must belong to my eldest brother."
Gongsun Yue directly stated the purpose of his trip.
"Haha, General Gongsun, I don't know if my lord supports Grand Administrator Gongsun as Youzhou Mu, but the assassination of Liu Zhoumu by Gongsun is a serious crime against the nine tribes. Only then will I do my best to serve as the leader of the world.
The army under my command came to attack Grand Administrator Gongsun."
Zhao Yun's words were extremely sharp, directly pointing out Gongsun Zan's serious crime.
"General Zilong, Liu Yu committed suicide in front of the battle. You must also know that if Yuan Zhoumu wants to attack us for such a baseless reason, he will be risking the disapproval of the world. And now the world is turbulent. If it is because of a mere Yuyang County
It would be a shame to miss out on the others.”
It must be said that Gongsun Yue was also somewhat eloquent, and what he said did make some sense.
"It is my lord's mission to eradicate traitors and clean up the world. If General Gongsun wants to see my lord for this reason, please come back."
Shaking his head, Zhao Yun directly issued an order to expel the guest. In fact, Gongsun Yue was testing him, so he himself was testing Gongsun Yue.
Judging from his current attitude, Gongsun Zan's losses in attacking Yuyang this time should be considerable, otherwise he would not have come out to negotiate peace with him.
"General Zilong, do you really want the two armies to meet each other? You must know that when two tigers fight, one of them will be injured. Does Mr. Yuan really want to do something that makes enemies happy and relatives painful?"
Although Zhao Yun had issued an order to expel guests, Gongsun Yue still did not want to give up.
"Here, send General Gongsun off."
Zhao Yun didn't want to talk at all now, so he directly issued the order to see off the guests.
"Humph, in that case, I'll see you on the battlefield."
Gongsun Yue rolled up his sleeves and left without any regret.
"General Gongsun, I have a message for you before I leave."
Gongsun Yue stopped.
"Discourage Grand Administrator Gongsun to surrender as soon as possible, otherwise the sky will collapse when the city is destroyed."
"Thanks for the advice, farewell."
Gongsun Yue took a carriage and returned directly to Yuyang City.
"Ah Yue, how's it going?"
When Gongsun Yue came back, Gongsun Zan immediately came out to greet him.
"Brother, get ready, this battle is inevitable."
Gongsun Yue sighed and said something he didn't even want to say.
"Is Yuan Shu so confident that he can eat my Gongsun Zan?"
Gongsun Zan's face was ashen, and he looked at Gongsun Yue like an angry lion.
"Brother."
Looking at Gongsun Zan, Gongsun Yue had mixed feelings and didn't know what to say.
"Needless to say, I want this Yuyang City to become Yuan Shu's nightmare that will never go away."
After saying this, he turned around and left.
"Lord."
"Lord."
That night, Yuan Shu's main force finally arrived. Zhao Yun and Gao Lan led a group of generals out of the camp for ten miles to meet them.
"Zilong, Boyu, thank you for your hard work. This is not the place. Let's go to the camp and talk."
"promise."
The group entered the camp, and Yuan Shu and the generals took their seats.
"My lord, today Gongsun Zan sent Gongsun Yue as an envoy during the day. He wanted to negotiate peace on the condition of supporting you as the shepherd of Youzhou, and also wanted to cede Yuyang County, but I have turned back."
Zhao Yun reported to Yuan Shu exactly what happened to Gongsun Yue during the day.
"Zilong has done a good job. Since Gongsun Zan sent Gongsun Yue out, he must be short of men and horses, and he wants to use this as a delaying measure. After he digests Yuyang County, he will jump out like a hungry wolf and bite us.
One bite."
Xun Chen agreed very much with what Zhao Yun was doing. Gongsun Zan was an immature wolf cub, so he had to make a careful plan and beat him to death without giving him a chance to stand up.
"Well, these are all trivial matters. Don't worry about him. I don't know what's going on with Xu Rong."
Yuan Shu nodded, Gongsun Zan was already a grasshopper after autumn and could not dance for a few days.
"My lord, according to Xu Rong's schedule, we can arrive at noon tomorrow at the latest."
Xun You stepped forward and reported the military situation to Yuan Shu.
"Okay, then let's go to Yuyang City to meet our old friends tomorrow, and then attack the city when all the troops are here."
