Chapter 255 inside the bucket
"He really regarded Yuan as a fool, Gongsun Du, as an old loach! He invited me to join the army as a military supervisor. On the surface, it was out of kindness that I let me live and observe him to show my loyalty, but in fact he wanted to catch a turtle in a jar and close the door and beat the dog! He trapped me in the middle army and killed him in one fell swoop. Does he really treat me as a fool?"
On Yuan Shang's lower head, Zhao Yun looked at Yuan Shang with a light face, and then said slowly: "I know you are very angry now, but what I want to remind you is that even if you are in the atmosphere and indignation, you must keep a calm heart and not be too angry, so as not to affect your mind, get lost, and make actions that are not conducive to the three armies. This is the best way for the commander!"
Yuan Shang gave him a dissatisfied look and whispered: "Which eye does your eyes tell that I am now being blinded by anger?"
Zhao Yun shrugged gently and said, "Catch turtles in the jar, close the door and beat dogs, and compare yourself to beasts, you can make up all the words you make! Do you think you are angry now, are you angry?"
Yuan Shang was suffocated when he heard this, and then slowly reacted.
Yes, indeed, if you think carefully, these two words are indeed not good words.
"Brother Zilong, at the critical moment when the old thief Gongsun Du wants to rebel, can we talk about constructive and nutritious topics? The old thief Gongsun wants my life. You are actually focusing on trivial things like dogs and turtles?"
Zhao Yun narrowed his eyes and nodded, "Okay, let's talk about valuable things. How did you guess that the old thief Gongsun Du will attack you? Since he surrendered, this old man has always been respectful to you, and even handed over military power. Why can't you trust him?"
Yuan Shang sighed when he heard this and said, "I believed in the old man Gongsun Du at first, and I had no defense in my heart. But later I had to mention it in words, saying that Gongsun Du resigned from military power and was willing to bow his head. It was actually a plan to turn the enemy back. He first handed over military power. He eliminated our suspicion, secretly incited all ethnic groups in the Dongyi rebellion, and took over military power again with the attitude of conquering Liaodong for a long time, and then got out of the mountain. It can be said that it was natural."
Zhao Yun lowered his head and thought carefully, and said, "According to the current situation, this matter is really developing like this master said. How dare you ask who this person is? Where is he?
Yuan Shang took a deep breath and sighed with a smile and said, "This person is white. As for his identity... he is a charlatan."
Zhao Yun: "..................."
***************************
A few days later, the Liaodong Army, with Yuan Shang as the military supervisor and Gongsun Du as the commander of the army, began to march towards the land of Lelang.
The troops marched very fast. In just one day, they arrived at Yilin, which was only fifty miles away from Lelang. That night, the entire army stationed here and rested temporarily to wait for the entire army to attack the Dongyi tribes the next day.
Tonight, the sky is covered with dark clouds, the moon is dark and the wind is high, and a hazy and terrifying atmosphere permeates the entire camp.
In Gongsun Du's camp, his confidant Qiu Lang came at night and quietly discussed the major rebellion with Gongsun Du.
"The veteran general, now that the military power has returned, Yuan Shang is also in our trap. Moreover, the sky is dark and the three armies are exhausted. As long as we attack people suddenly tonight, we will definitely kill them in one fell swoop. Why did the veteran general stop moving? If the relocation lasts for a long time, there may be something wrong!"
Upon hearing this, Gongsun Du shook his head gently and said, "We just took back the military power, and we have not yet confirmed whether Yuan Shang and others have relaxed their guards. Now we are taking action rashly, which is too hasty!"
Qiu Lang was anxious when he heard this and said, "When will the old general take action? Brothers have been fed up with Yuan Shang's anger and are waiting there!"
Gongsun Du thought for a while and said, "At least we must completely eliminate Yuan Shang's intentions... With my intention, we might as well quell the troubled times of Dongyi first. In this way, Yuan Shang will be completely unwilling to worry. When the rebellion of Dongyi is over, I think Yuan Shang will definitely have a big banquet for the entire army to demonstrate martial arts. At that time, taking advantage of the opportunity of the banquet and taking action again will be the most appropriate..."
Although Qiu Lang felt that Gongsun Du was too troublesome to act, he was the master and was impatient and had to do it with caution, so he had to nod and agree.
Gongsun Du planned carefully and said, "Qiu Lang, if you want to kill Yuan Shang, there must be someone who needs to be removed. If this person is here, I am afraid that we may not be able to kill Yuan Shang. Once he is allowed to escape, there will be endless disasters in the future, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to recover."
When Qiu Lang heard this, he hurriedly bowed and said, "I wonder who the old general is talking about?"
Gongsun Du sighed and said, "It is Zhao Yun, the butcher who is known as the number one brave general in Hebei. This man led the crowd to protect Yuan Shang's central army. If he did not find a way to rectify him first, it would not be so easy to kill Yuan Shang."
When Qiu Lang heard this, he suddenly showed a faint disdain on his face and said, "Butler Zhao Zilong, his subordinates also know this person's reputation. They are just a mere martial artist. How afraid are you? If you really fight at that time, he alone may save the crisis?"
Gongsun Du shook his head and said, "You must not underestimate this butcher Zhao Yun. The rumor that he fought alone since he fought out of the mountain and never lost. He was actually a brave man who was not worthy of his power. In the battle of Wancheng, Zhang Xiu could have killed Cao cāo, and it was all up to the fierce general Dian Wei to guard the gate, which made Zhang Bing fearful and dare not advance, and gained a glimmer of chance for Cao cāo. I used my husband to fight him. Zhao Yun's courage was only higher than Dian Wei at that time, so he had to get rid of this person first when he killed Yuan Shang!"
Qiu Lang hurriedly said, "Since that's the case, I wonder what tricks the old lord has about how to deal with Zhao Yun?"
Gongsun Du thought carefully for a while before he said slowly: "Yu wants to get rid of Zhao Yun, only at the celebration banquet after pacifying Dongyi, you and my confidants will make friends with Zhao Yun as a general, and praise him more and help him with his drunkenness. If he can kill him after he gets drunk, it is the best strategy... Qiu Lang, I will leave this matter to you!"
Qiu Lang thought carefully and bowed and said, "Don't worry, the old general, I... know what to do!"
***************************
A few days later, Yuan Shang and his troops arrived in Lelang County and rushed directly to the rebellious twelve tribes of Dongyi. Yuan Shang handed over all the command of all the troops to Gongsun Du. He became a manager, with the name of a military supervisor, and stood by the side and watched coldly, quietly looking at Gongsun Du's every move.
Under the leadership of Gongsun Du, Yuan Jun almost easily settled the twelve tribes of the Dongyi tribes. When these barbarians saw Gongsun Du's flag and heard his name, they seemed to be like the King of Hell. They turned around and looked at the wind and surrendered. The troops led by Gongsun Du were like a storm that could sweep away the Dongyi. They won consecutive battles and won the battles and guest patrols from all directions. But after hearing the name of the Old General Gongsun, all the Dongyi submissions were all seen and surrendered.
In just a blink of an eye, the rebellion of the twelve tribes of the Dongyi tribes was suppressed by the veteran General Gongsun Du. The leaders of the various tribes submitted a letter to surrender again, and Gongsun Du's popularity was immediately indifferent among the three armies.
Yuan Shang was like an outsider. While sneering, he was praising Gongsun Du for his great contributions. After the barbarians of the most clan came to surrender, Yuan Shang had almost no words and immediately ordered Gongsun Du to be promoted to General Pingdong, and to be given gold, silk and brocade, and a banquet was held within the three armies to celebrate Gongsun Du's merits.
But all of this seemed to fall into Gongsun Du's thoughts. The conspiracy and intrigue he had in mind was about to be staged grandly with this large-scale celebration banquet.
On the day of the celebration banquet, the camp of the three armies was filled with wine and meat, and the beautiful atmosphere of shouting and singing. The generals of the three armies were relaxed enough, both big and small. They drank and ate meat, sang and danced, as lively as the New Year.
Gongsun Du was the protagonist this day. Today he was full of energy. He wore the Xichuan red silk brocade robe that Yuan Shang personally gave him the day before yesterday, and was wearing a shining golden armor. He happily came to the handsome tent of the lords who had exchanged songs and drinks.
When Gongsun Du came, Yuan Shang was standing at the door of the coach's tent. Seeing Gongsun Du coming, he immediately greeted him with a smile, grabbed Gongsun Du's hand, and said with a smile: "The old general is so slow to pack up, but he has made Yuan wait for a long time. If you come slowly again, the rich food and drinks will probably be cold!"
Gongsun Du hurriedly said in a panic: "What kind of virtue is that I can do? How dare I ask the lord to personally welcome the marquis here. It will be a crime of death, and death!"
Yuan Shang laughed loudly and shook his head and said, "What is the crime of the Old General Gongsun? If you hadn't personally led the people to quell the rebellion, how could the twelve tribes of the Dongyi be quelled so quickly? Although the Old General Gongsun is old, his power is still sharp and his contributions are outstanding, and he will not diminish in the past!"
I don’t know whether it was intentional or unintentional, when Yuan Shang said this, he gritted his teeth and stuck out the four big words he used to say in the past~~!
Gongsun Du kept saying "I dare not" and was half-rejected and half-received, and was brought into the tent by Yuan Shangying as a guest.
Behind Yuan Shang, Zhao Yunfang wanted to follow the steps, but saw several former Liaodong Army leaders led by Qiu Lang coming forward one after another.
Qiu Lang grabbed Zhao Yun and said with a smile: "General Zhao! Please stay still~!"
When Zhao Yun heard this, he turned his head in confusion, but saw that the old Liaodong army subordinates behind him were all smiling kindly.
Qiu Lang coughed and laughed, "General Zhao, today is a celebration banquet. The lord said that the generals of all departments do not have to gather in the general's tent, but they can do their own will. The general's status is low and he knows that he is not worthy of drinking with General Zhao. However, he has been repeatedly defeated by General Zhao's style and has a desire to make friends, so he comes to invite him with a shameless attitude. He hopes that the general will not abandon him and reward us with a face. I don't know if it is feasible?"
Zhao Yun woke up, but his face was light and his face was light and he said, "It's all the generals of the army, so why do you distinguish each other? Since you are sincere in communion with me, how can Yun refute the friendship between colleagues? Come on! We won't drink with our lords and the others today, we will drink our own drinks! Let's go!"
"General Zhao, please!"
