Chapter 541: Han Sui surrenders, Xun You attacks Liang
The scout left immediately after receiving the order and galloped towards the outside of the camp.
"The military advisor has ordered Mr. Cheng Gongying to enter the camp."
The scouts came to Cheng Gongying and read Xun You's order.
"Brother Laojun is leading the way."
Hearing this, Cheng Gongying saluted the surrounding Yuan Shujun again, and then got into the carriage.
"please."
The team leader waved his hand and made way for a passage, then followed Cheng Gongying towards the camp.
"Han Sui's guest, Cheng Gongying, paid a visit to Mr. Gongda."
Cheng Gongying entered the big tent and saluted Xun You who was sitting in the first place.
"Mr. Cheng, you are so polite. I have long heard that Cheng Gongying, a man from Jincheng, has a majestic appearance and a wisdom as deep as the sea. Now that I see him, his reputation is indeed well-deserved. Come, please give me a seat."
Seeing Cheng Gongying, Xun You smiled all over his face and asked someone to bring a seat.
"Mr. Xie Gongda."
Cheng Gongying sat down directly.
"Gongying, I don't know why you came to my camp this time?
You must know that if you ignore me and merge with the state, we are in a hostile relationship."
Cheng Gongying sat down and Xun You asked him directly.
"Mr. Gongda's words are wrong. My lord's attack on Bingzhou was completely deceived and coerced by Ma Teng. He really had no choice but to do so. My lord has no intention of becoming an enemy of Yuan Zhoumu, otherwise he would not have sent me here. This is also true.
Look to you clearly."
After hearing Xun You's words, Cheng Gongying immediately stood up.
"Don't be nervous. If anything happens, let's sit down and talk."
Xun You waved his hand towards Cheng Gongying and motioned for him to sit down.
"Mr. Gongda, please take a closer look."
Cheng Gongying slowly sat on the chair.
"Well, I know the reason why you came to make peace with Han Sui. We have already joined forces with Ma Teng, so Han Sui is afraid, right?"
Xun You looked at Cheng Gongying, a clear understanding flashed in his eyes.
"Since Mr. Gongda already knows, I won't beat around the bush. I'm here to ask Yuan Zhoumu to surrender on behalf of my lord.
No matter what conditions Ma Teng agrees to you, they must not be as good as my lord.
So I asked Mr. Gongda to give up Ma Teng and join forces with my master. I believe that with our help, defeating Ma Teng and taking Liangzhou is just a backhand."
After hearing Xun You's words, Cheng Gongying also completely affirmed the relationship between Ma Teng and Yuan Shu. Now that this was the case, surrendering to Yuan Shu was the only way out.
"Han Sui is really willing to give up his status as a prince and serve my lord?
Don’t you want to do something else?”
Xun You looked at Cheng Gongying and didn't know what he was thinking.
"Naturally, I want to survive, and I want to be able to be granted the title of Marquis Yinzi in the future. Yuan Zhoumu is now the strongest prince in the Han Dynasty, and Yanzhou Liu Bei is just a clown in front of him.
After capturing Yanzhou, as long as Yuan Zhoumu takes advantage of the trend and moves westward, first to Yuzhou, then to Sizhou, and then to take Yongzhou, the whole world will be in his hands.
In the face of this rolling trend, no matter who we are, we are like a worm trying to shake a tree, and we can only stand in the way of the army. We will only have the fate of being crushed into ashes.
My lord is not an unwise man. If he surrenders now, he can still act like a slave to the dragon. This is better than surrendering when the army comes to the city in the future.
Are you satisfied with that?"
Cheng Gongying stood up again and told everything he had thought about when he came. He did not want anything else but to have a heart-to-heart relationship with Xun You and gain a chance for Han Sui.
"Okay, I believe what you said, so what if you give up Ma Teng? I agree to Han Sui's surrender on my lord's behalf."
Now that Cheng Gongying has confessed, Xun You is no longer nervous, the fish has taken the bait, and his goal has been achieved.
"Thank you Mr. Gongda."
Hearing Xun You's words, Cheng Gongying's heart dropped to his stomach.
"Well, no need to be polite, from today on we are our own family."
Xun You also stepped down from the first position and gave Cheng Gongying a hug.
"Then I will pay homage to Commander Xun on behalf of Master Han Sui."
Cheng Gongying left Xun You's arms, and then the father-in-law quietly bowed to Xun You, and his title changed from the original Mr. Gongda to the unified title of military advisor in Yuan Shu's system.
"Okay, Gao Lan."
"exist."
Hearing Xun You's words, Gao Lan was stunned for a moment, but immediately stepped forward and saluted Xun You with clasped fists.
"I order you to lead the Weilu Army, Xianbei Army, and Xihe Cavalry, totaling 45,000 cavalry, as the vanguard to go out of Bingzhou to attack Liangzhou."
"promise."
"Wen Chou, Ju Yi."
"exist."
"exist."
Wen Chou and Ju Yi looked at each other and immediately stepped out to salute Xun You.
"The fierce tiger army will advance first, plus 20,000 militiamen, totaling 50,000 troops as the central army. Follow me to send troops to Liangzhou."
"promise."
"promise."
"In addition, I ordered the Tiebei Army and the 20,000 militiamen to go to Shuofang County. If any Qiang people are found, they must be guarded by me. It will not be easy for a Qiang person to cross the border."
"Tune Xihe Governor Du Feng to lead a militia regiment of 10,000 people and 10,000 new soldiers to Jiuyuan County to support Shuofang County at any time."
"Tune"
After Xun You dispatched his troops and generals, he once again set his sights on Cheng Gongying.
"Gongying, are you coming with us or returning to Liangzhou now?"
"Everything depends on the military advisor's instructions."
Cheng Gongying also clasped his fist towards Xun You.
"Then you should follow Gao Lan. He is the vanguard, so there must be someone familiar with him to guide him. What do you think?"
"promise."
"Then let's go down and act on our own."
"promise."
After everyone left, Xun You was the only one in the camp, and he was not idle. He turned around and returned to the inner tent. He wanted to convey everything here to Yuan Shu.
The ticking sound of the telegram floated in the sky above the big tent, and Yuan Shu, who was thousands of miles away, also received Xun You's communication immediately.
"My lord, Gongda fought a good battle."
Tian Feng took the battle report and came to Yuan Shu excitedly.
"oh?
Is there any new progress in Bingzhou?"
After hearing Tian Feng's words, Yuan Shu also put away the book in his hand and looked at Tian Feng with interest.
"My lord, Ma Teng and Han Sui attacked Bingzhou with 60,000 infantry troops. Gongda did not fight head-on, but gave Shangjun out, and then used counterintuitive tactics, which resulted in Han Sui and Ma Teng merging.
Ma Teng was defeated and fled to Liangzhou. Although Han Sui won, he immediately led his army back to Liangzhou. At the same time, he sent an envoy Cheng Gongying to Xihe to express to Gongda that he was willing to serve his lord.
Gongda accepted Han Sui's surrender and ordered the Weilu army, Xianbei servant army and Xihe cavalry to total 45,000 cavalry, with Gao Lan as the vanguard, the Hu Lie army, the Xianden army and the militia group of 20,000, totaling 45,000.
Thousands of elite soldiers formed the central army, and with myself as the commander-in-chief, we sent troops to Liangzhou."
Tian Feng read Xun You's military report directly. After hearing the news, Yuan Shu also stood up excitedly.
"Okay, okay, okay, Gongda is indeed a genius of the world. With a piece of counter-intuitive plan, he turned brothers Han Sui and Ma Teng into enemies. I guess this march into Liangzhou should be a sure thing."
After hearing Yuan Shu's words, Tian Feng couldn't help but nodded.
"My lord, Liangzhou is at its weakest now when the two heroes are fighting. Coupled with Han Sui's surrender, taking Yanzhou with Gongda's ability is just a matter of counterattack."
